S5 Ep17: Eating Crow: Monday, January 31st, 2022

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Monday.

This is a very happy Monday for me because after weeks of waiting, my new computer is finally here and I'm a brand new woman.

If you're watching on YouTube, hi everyone, you can see me in 1080p without having to use a webcam, which the webcam was the thing that was not syncing my lips to my audio.

And now I think today we have it under control.

Hi, Claudia.

How are you, Dern?

I just don't think you could have picked a worse day to look so beautiful and premium.

Because if you look at me, I look exactly how I feel, which is just exhausted and ugly and gross.

So I'm so happy for you,

but also slightly offended.

You look beautiful.

You had such a jam-packed weekend.

So it's okay if, you know.

You're not feeling your best.

Can you tell us about your historic weekend at Parks Casino?

I mean, I was also in DC.

Like, don't forget, I've literally been around the tri-state.

Well, no, not tri-state, New England.

No.

Northeast?

Sure.

So, yes, on Thursday, we headed to D.C.

We had the most amazing show.

Like, I am very, very hard on myself.

And when I got off stage in DC, I felt like

the roof almost blew off the place.

Like, I had the best fucking time, literally.

And then we went out to dinner at La Diplomat, which I had never been to, which is really the most delicious restaurant of all time.

And it was just like an amazing weekend.

I love DC.

I never really have been there before.

Like I've been for tour, but I've never really spent time there.

And it was really kind of everything of the sort.

Would you say that?

And then we drove to Parks Casino.

Would you say, I love DC?

I actually would.

Like, it's an extremely gorgeous town.

Maybe it's because it's the capital and they have like different, you know, like infrastructure, but it's an extremely clean city.

Like, I didn't see one piece of trash on the ground.

Wow.

That's new.

That's cool.

Yeah.

It was shocking.

It was just beautiful.

Like, I really enjoyed it.

And we had the best show.

And it was the best, literally, I think the best audience I've ever had in my life.

Like, they were perfect.

Like, I just loved it.

I thought it couldn't get any better than DC.

Like, I really thought that.

The D scenes?

The D scenes, yeah.

Okay, but then the show of Elijah.

The next morning.

Well, I don't really want to spoil it because we did vlog for the Patreon.

It's currently exporting from my computer.

It will be up today on patreon.com/slash morning show.

So I don't want to spoil, but there was like a lot of drama in the Parks Casino show.

First of all, we

had like some weather that was very

allegedly, you know, destructive, but then like it wasn't.

There was a lot going on.

It was Whitney Heather bad weather.

Whitney Heather bad weather

we talk about in the vlog so I won't spoil it but it was amazing so I had a bunch of friends come up for the show with the best time like the show was amazing then we you know we hung out at the casino for a bit we went back to Brian's house this is my first time being at Brian's house and that's where I currently still am um so it was like I just don't I don't want to spoil it because the vlog is really good and I think everyone's going to love it but it was

It was an amazing, amazing weekend, personally, professionally, very grateful to everyone who came out to shows.

And I hate, you know, that the weather got, uh, ruined a lot of people's chances of coming because they didn't want to, you know, drive for four or five hours just in case there was like this crazy Nor'easter.

So I totally understand.

That part definitely sucked.

But I don't know, maybe I just have to come back to Philly.

I think that you do.

It looked so fun.

I'm so glad that you guys vlogged because I got to, you know, feel like I was there in spirit.

And I feel like I got the gist of the evening.

And so another great vlog at patreon.com slash morning toast.

There's a lot of Snatchler there.

Haven't seen her in a while.

So always good to see what's up with the snatchler.

And there were some really cute sweet moments that had me laughing out loud, honestly.

Really?

Like which one?

Like when

Ben got that good news and you guys are being cute and then he dropped his phone.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I was just laughing.

That was a good one.

I thought you were going to say when Brian was like, give me a Spritz.

Oh my God.

Yes, yes, that too.

That too.

Oh, that was also just like why it was such a great weekend.

So Spritz was the, not Spritz, Parks Casino was the first show we were able to successfully sell Spritz into.

And not only did we get it sold into the casino, the toasters sold it out before the show even started.

So we were all like quaking.

And there's been a lot of questions about what shows Spritz will be at moving forward.

Now,

I'm just a messenger and I can't remember the list that Ben told me, but I want to say he said Fort Lauderdale and Dallas as well and a couple others.

Ooh, that's so exciting.

Don't quote me on that.

It seems as though the weekend was fueled by Spritz, like powered by Spritz.

Everyone's energy, excitement, you know, good vibes.

We're just courtesy of Spritz Society.

So check out Spritz if you haven't already.

How are you?

I haven't even spoken to you.

I know.

Well, you've been so busy.

I'm good.

You know, I would say the same as the last time that you saw me.

Nothing quite new to report.

Just been relaxing.

Even though it was a long weekend for me, and that's usually when I start to go a little stir crazy up in here, it went by pretty quickly, and I felt like my

mental health was in check.

So

I didn't require that many hobbies.

I was watching a lot of Pull Dark, which I need to take a break because it's a really good show.

But do you find, I feel like with every TV show these days, it's like the people that you're supposed to be rooting for are constantly losing, being losers.

No, like fucking up.

And like the villains are like, they're winning.

So I'm like, this will be a more enjoyable show if I'm rooting for the villains.

So now all of a sudden, like I, you know, like, cause they're, I can only take so much loseriness from the people that I love.

Of course.

So I just, it's more enjoyable to switch sides and root for the bad guy these days because they are always winning.

Like Poldark, I just,

I can't.

So I have one more season.

That must be so hard for you.

It is.

It's like frustrating.

It's like, why am I watching these losers lose?

He's supposed to be like the greatest, most heroic guy, and he can't even like come toe-to-toe with George Warlock.

Like,

what's the tea?

But.

I have one more season left.

I'm taking a little bit of a break because I'm reading the book for the Redheads.

New episode drops on Thursday.

Got to get the girls back together.

And the the book is really good.

It's so different from what we've read in the past.

It really feels like a book that could be a TV show or a movie that's like a thriller.

It's very fast-paced, and there's a lot of twists and turns.

So if you want to become a redhead, it is never too late, Claudia.

I can confirm that it is never too late.

But what about for you?

To become a redhead or to host the podcast?

To become a redhead.

The thing is, is like I'm on such a sporadic reading journey.

Like I read six books in December and not one in January.

Do you know what I mean?

Like it just really doesn't fit my reading schedule.

That's the only thing.

Okay, well

fine.

Did you see that there's a new Colleen Hoover book out?

I did.

Are you going to read it?

I haven't read it yet.

At some point, yeah, when I feel like it's time to pick up my Kindle again.

Yeah.

I haven't read it yet either.

Snitch needs to read it and let us all know if it's worth, if it's worthwhile.

Right now, the book I started in December that I still haven't finished is The Hating Game that they turned into a movie with Lucy Hale.

And to be completely honest, it absolutely sucks.

Yeah, I have no interest, especially because I'd rather see the movie.

And I've learned that I don't like reading the book and seeing the movie.

It's one or the other.

And I love Lucy Hale, so I want to watch a movie.

Well, speaking of books being turned into movies, yesterday when everyone was here, Taylor Streker, Taylor Donahue, Margot was here, Brian, obviously, because we're at his house, my friend Erica.

I made them all watch Something Borrowed, and we vlog it because it's an important piece of cultural history.

And I thought it was important that everyone see it.

And then I got them all like on the Something Blue Train.

Brian has been in contact with Emily Giffen, they've been DMing.

Um, so we're working on this project full steam ahead on getting the sequel made,

yeah.

Yeah, now that's a great way to use your influence and your platform for good.

Get that sequel made.

Agreed.

Okay.

That's exciting.

That's exciting.

I won't get my hopes up, but if you can pull that off, I'll have objections.

Do not get your hopes up.

It's definitely not happening.

Sorry.

Yeah, no, I just want to set kind of level expectations.

In no way, shape, or form is the sequel happening.

In my opinion,

I think TPG should get into the movie business.

Talk to him about it.

I'm glad.

I think so, too.

Should we like crowdfund, what's it called?

Like

raise money?

Yep, crowdfund.

We should crowdfund like $50 million or however much you need to put together a movie.

I just think like a little too much time has passed in my opinion in order for it to accurately

because the sequel, I won't spoil it, but happens literally the day after something borrowed ends.

Yeah, and it's been 10 years.

10 years.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I feel that way also about Confessions of a Shopaholic.

I would love to get it crowdfunded to finish out that series, but,

you know, because I like it a lot.

I didn't know that there was even

any sort of campaign for a film.

Well, there always is a campaign for a film when you're talking to me because everything I love gets canceled.

Everything.

That is very true.

Everything.

Okay, well, we have so much to discuss today.

So I think we should jump right in.

We have got the Fast Five.

We have to talk about Real Households of Salt Lake City.

And

we have to talk about the 49ers.

yeah what which we're gonna launch right into you want to get into it are you ready

Thank you, Claudia.

It's a pleasure.

Our first story is is some sports news, and we are eating crow.

We were wrong on all counts.

Last night, the Chiefs lost to the Bengals, that animal that we never talk about, and the Rams beat the 49ers, which means we will be having a Rams-Bengals Super Bowl, which is the exact opposite of what we predicted.

Okay, I want to say a few things.

Please.

Since our foray into sports, I have learned quite a bit about the Bengals.

And them beating the Chiefs, I just want to say I'm extremely here for.

Joe Burrow is an extremely handsome man who deserves our love and our respect.

And Joe Burrow, you have my support because you are very handsome and you are very good at what you do.

So for that game, I wasn't that disappointed.

Like, I don't really care that our prediction was, you know, off because I'm happy.

I love an underdog, and I do believe that's what the Bengals were.

Yes, it was a big upset.

Like, Kansas City could have won the whole Super Bowl, and now they're not even in it.

Yeah.

Love it.

Love when an underdog wins.

But we need to talk about the 49ers because I do feel

as though

they didn't win because I was supporting them.

Like, I just have like toxic sports energy, and you never want me to throw my weight behind a team because it will destroy the team from the inside out.

And that's pretty much a guarantee.

You're the Jessica Simpson of the 49ers.

100%.

Kyle Yuschak Yuschak is my Tony Romo, and I am a curse to the entire franchise.

I apologize to every person who lives in San Francisco because your team did lose because I chose to support them.

Like, I know that for a fact.

I don't know because you've been right sometimes.

So, of course, it feels that way.

And it's like, if we never got ourselves involved, would things be different?

And you know what?

Like, they really might have been.

But I don't think you can be too hard on yourself.

I guess,

pains me to say, like, it just wasn't the 49ers time once again.

I know.

No, I know.

And

I just really thought that it might be.

Yeah.

And I'm devastated.

And, you know, I watched the whole, well, not the whole, like

the whole second half, which by the way was the longest

two hours of my life.

And I just really cannot like, I don't think I want to permanently be a sports girly.

It's extremely distressing to feel so invested.

And I'm in Pennsylvania right now.

So you can download the DraftKings sports book and just like bet on sports, which is so crazy.

So me, Brian, and John, collectively, we put like $800 on the 49ers.

And like, literally, by the end of the game, like everyone was looking at me like, why did we listen to you?

And I'm like, I don't know.

I don't know why anyone listened to me.

I just showed them a picture of Kyle Yuschek, and they were really excited about it.

So, I don't know.

It was all so hopeful.

You know, we were

having so much fun until we weren't.

Yeah.

Well, I feel like with every team, there, like you just said, like Joe Burrow, you know, stood out to you.

I feel like every time there's a Super Bowl, we like learn about some of these heart throbs on the teams.

And there's always someone.

Jimmy Garoppolo.

Yeah.

So there's always someone that you can really get behind.

So that's true.

That, like, even when it was Patrick Mahomes, like, it's, we, we'll make,

and maybe we'll find, you know, some, some toasters in the locker room at the Bengals and the Rams.

No, I'm now, um, like, really, I mean, I don't want to throw my weight behind a team and curse them again.

So

I do want to say like, I will be rooting for the Bengals.

I will be rooting for the, I'll be rooting for the Bengals as well.

That was where I was going.

Even though I have, you know, a sold-out show at the Wilbur Theater the night of the Super Bowl, so like I won't even be watching.

So it actually doesn't even matter.

But I just feel like the Rams are extremely toxic.

Sean McVay is just like,

I don't know.

He's just not, he's not it for me, in my opinion, you know, in my opinion.

He's not your cup of tea.

He's not your cup of tea.

No.

Okay.

No, and I just feel like the Rams, like, this is going to be an extremely hot take.

Okay.

Mm-hmm.

I just feel like the Rams are a fraudulent franchise.

I said it.

Yeah.

They're fraudulent.

Is it because they're so new?

Yes.

And it's like, it's just not fair that like they're new and they automatically have like so many fans.

Like they don't even have to work for it because it's like LA.

I can't explain it.

It's just extremely toxic.

I feel that.

And also, like, this is so mean, but I just feel like people in LA will be so annoying if they win.

And it's like, I'd say,

opposite.

I think people.

I'd rather see people in Cincinnati get to behave that way and be excited

and be like natty proud as opposed to being like LA proud, which is like

every day.

Right.

No,

I think that people in LA really need to experience a loss collectively.

And that's why we will be supporting the Bengals.

But the Rams lost recently, right?

I was trying to go back.

They were in the Super Bowl like really in recent years.

Yeah, yeah.

I don't think they were in the Super Bowl.

They were.

I swear they were because

I remember like Stasi's husband is a big Rams fan and they all went

whenever I think of the Rams.

I think of Bo and I think of Teddy Mellencamp's husband also.

And I want it for them.

If it was just the two of them, I would be, I want it for them.

But overall, I just can't support it.

But the whole city is toxic.

I refuse to support.

And I think Cincinnati, you know, I've been reading some stats, you know, Underdog, there's like one player who did something very cool for his town.

And I think I love when they give back to the community, but I also think you can find a player on every team who's done something great for his town.

Well, really, one from the Rams has not come across my desk.

So

you're going to be inundated today.

You're going to be inundated with Rams.

No, seriously.

I just feel like if you out yourself as a Rams fan, like you're toxic.

I can't explain it.

Like, go Bengals all the way.

Like, the way I never even heard of the Bengals a week ago, and now I would literally take a bullet for them.

That's so like, that's the beauty of sports.

Yeah.

Well, for most people, it's not like that because people are so invested.

It's so nice to really not have a horse in the race and just be able to be such a flip-flopper because it's just so less

high stakes.

I can't relate to people whose whole like day and mood.

rely on whether or not their team is going to win, which they have no influence over.

Yeah, I think it's sports, if you really boil it down, is an extremely toxic community.

Yeah, I agree.

But I think when you approach it from, you know, like a

wide lens like we are, it can be really fun to engage unless you're losing money, which is really upsetting.

Yeah, but you know what?

I was also playing Blackjack on my phone during the game, and I made up the money that I lost against

the regular game.

So I actually netted even on DraftKings Sportsbook.

I just have to figure out how to withdraw my money from the app.

I can't figure it out.

Interesting.

You should be able to then, from there, like take your earnings and like put them in Robin Hood or something.

You know?

Oh my God, you are so fiscally responsible.

You totally should be able to do that.

Or like into Bitcoin.

That's a great call.

Thanks.

That's a Bitcoin.

Yeah.

Buy some Doge.

Oh my God, James.

So good.

I didn't watch the second part.

Speaking of TV recap, I watched Salt Lake City last night, but I didn't get the chance to watch Euphoria because I fell asleep on the couch right after the

49ers game ended.

So I'm not sure when I'll watch it, but I won't be recapping that today.

But I have so much, like, so much to say about Salt Lake City that I feel as though Salt Lake City deserves its entire moment in the TV recap.

Okay.

I mean, I know a lot of people, like, apparently Euphoria was crazy last night, so people are going to be disappointed.

But I don't think you were in the headspace.

No, it's going to be really hard for me.

I don't think you were in the headspace last night to take it on.

No, I literally like was a deeply unwell human being after going to brunch last night.

Well, brunch yesterday, and then I got home last night, and then like the 49ers game.

So I just like had to keep drinking.

But it's going to be really hard for me to avoid spoilers until I'm able to watch Euphoria.

But Brian doesn't watch it, so I'm not going to like force him to watch it, you know?

Oh, yeah, I do know.

Also, just one more thing.

How did you make out at the Parks Casino casino?

You know what?

I did relatively well.

I think I like maybe lost overall $100.

Like I was just really playing for fun.

I was so happy like after the show, I felt very like accomplished and all my friends were around.

So I wasn't really focused on like, you know, paying my rent at the casino.

I just,

I was was just playing for fun, like a couple, couple hands, nothing crazy.

No, and also, like, losing $100, that's like the price of an evening, of a fun evening with friends.

You get free drinks.

You probably would have spent more if you guys spent all that time in a bar.

So, on cocktails, it all eatens out.

Okay.

Yeah, I know.

I felt really good about that.

That's your sports news.

Are you going to be betting on the Super Bowl?

I don't know.

I just like can't really be that invested because I'm working that day and I just like my brain will be very focused on my show.

So, probably not.

Like, this is probably the peak of my interest in sports.

And we'll try again next year.

I feel that.

I feel that.

And I just hope, you know, everyone who's excited about it gets what they're looking for.

I don't know what else to say about this, about these things.

Yeah, just go bangles.

Go bangles.

Go bangles.

Okay, our next story is so exciting, like breaking news from this morning.

Rihanna is pregnant.

She and ASAP Rocky are expecting their first baby.

Rihanna took to the streets of New York City.

The couple couple was photographed over the weekend where she debuted her baby bump while wearing a long pink jacket.

Her oversized outerwear was unbuttoned at the bottom to reveal her growing bump adorned in a gold cross with

colorful jewels.

The pictures are so sickening.

Rihanna looks so stunning.

And this is just like such unexpected.

Happy, beautiful news.

It's so unexpected.

And first of all, this is so Rihanna.

Like some people have, you know, maternity shoots.

They have like these big announcements.

They post on Instagram.

No, she just walks around with her belly hanging out and wants everyone to know that she's pregnant.

Like it's it's iconic in so many different ways.

Also, what does this mean for us?

Fenty baby?

Like there's just a lot on the horizon now that we know she's pregnant.

Like the world will never and can never be the same.

Yeah, no,

it's so exciting for and also another person to be like excited.

Even though we have just a little bit of crossover now, it's like

the club just keeps getting better.

But I feel like anytime,

it's always a good time to be pregnant and you can always find people who are um doing great stuff for their town who are pregnant how

how many um months do you think she is based on that belly oh four or five

yeah i i don't know i would say but it's so crazy everyone carries so differently especially for a first pregnancy sometimes it can take a really long time to see the bump so it's hard to speculate And I don't think

I'm so happy for her.

I'm so happy for her.

They look so happy.

These pictures are iconic.

I can just like already see them like in 10 years, us looking back on these pictures being like, that's the coolest couple ever.

And an amazing announcement.

Yeah, it's a moment.

And I just wasn't expecting a moment when I woke up this morning.

No, not at all.

And that's what I love about Rihanna.

Like, she really makes decisions for herself based on what will make her the most happy.

Not like, you know, I think a lot of when you're a woman in the industry, like you plan like your career and your family, like you try and time it all right.

But Rihanna's just out here like doing whatever the fuck she wants.

And we just love to see a woman succeed.

and i cannot wait you i mean there has to be fenty baby right

i don't know i mean it rolls off the tongue so it's such a good name it is a good name okay well i'm so posted i hope we get like more content and stuff but even if this is all we ever see like it's more it would be enough dainu

it would be enough dainu we're already so blessed to have gotten this like one random photo of her stomach i just wasn't expecting that like and you know how we oh my god you know how we were talking about the other week how i started you putting on people magazine notifications on my phone, even though like because I'm such an internet sleuth, like everything they notify me on, I found out two hours ago.

Right.

I did find out not only that Rihanna was pregnant this morning from my people news notification, also another story that we have about Hoda, I did find out also from my people magazine.

So it does come in handy sometimes.

Oh, interesting.

That's why you were trying to influence the fast vibe today.

Yes, because I didn't know if you had seen the stories.

I actually, I did one last, I had five and then I did did one last sweep quickly.

And I saw Rihanna, and then I saw that you wanted to talk about Hoda as well, which I guess would be a great segue into our next story.

Just gonna move some things around.

Sure.

And I just wanted to give, you know, a shout out to People Magazine Apple notifications because I did kind of disgrace them a couple weeks ago.

Yeah, but still, don't get carried away with some breaking news recipes from the Pioneer Woman.

Agreed.

But some more breaking news that broke Claudia's heart today.

Hoda, Cottby, and Joel Schiffman break up after eight years together.

Hoda and Joel, who got engaged in 2019 and share two daughters, are going their separate ways.

She announced today on the Today Show.

She said, Joel and I, I found this very shocking.

Joel and I have had a lot of prayerful and meaningful conversations over the holidays, and we decided that we're better as friends and parents than we are as an engaged couple.

So we decided we are going to start this new year on our new path as loving parents to our adorably delightful children and as friends.

It's not like something happened.

They say sometimes relationships are meant to be there for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.

This was for a season.

I feel like that.

I mean, very well said.

I agree.

Like sometimes not everything needs to be drama.

Like not something had to have happened.

Like sometimes just two people drifted apart.

I just was extremely shocked by this.

And I think that a lot of people will feel very connected to this story because Hoda is like this, this like beacon for a lot of women.

I think I think like she found love really late in life and she

like put her career first for so long.

And I think that she was kind of the epitome of like a woman having it all, you know, like the successful career, the family, the kids.

And like she did it and she was really like an inspiration.

She is an inspiration to so many.

And I just thought like, I thought that was the end of her story.

You know, like I didn't know that there was going to be a sequel that, you know, she and Joel broke up and now Hoda's back on the scene.

A sequel that may or may not be made into a movie.

Correct.

Yeah.

No, this is surprising, but but it's also like nice when people split up knowing they're doing the right thing and the best thing for themselves.

And it's like, actually, you know, she's elevating to more happiness once she gets through, you know, the changes and the, and the sadness of the end of a relationship.

It's like, if this is best for Hoda, then Hoda's on a journey to further happiness.

You know?

Yeah.

And that's all we want in this world, like further happiness for Hoda.

It's just...

It's a tough pill to swallow for the Hoda stands, honestly.

But don't the Hoda stands just want what's, I guess it's hard.

I mean, you could say

that they want what's best for Hoda.

I agree.

When all of my ships went down last year, and like, if you said to me, but this is what's best for Lala, like, that's, it still hurt.

It's best for Kim, it still hurts.

Of course.

So it's best for Hoda, but it still hurts.

Of course.

And I was just really surprised by this.

I don't know why.

It's not like I thought about it.

And it's not even like I had a ship out for Hoda and Joel.

I just...

I don't know.

I just thought like that was it for her.

You know, like it was a happy ending.

Yeah.

And some things are just like so stable that you don't think about them.

And then it really can like rock your foundation when too many of those like stable elements, load-bearing couples go down.

Crumble.

I completely agree.

So I would look forward to seeing who, you know, Hoda dates next.

And you know, that's the tough thing about being like a, like a...

morning show queen that like millions of people just like love to watch because you do have to like go on tv and talk about like really painful like personal things the moment they happen so i think what she said was really beautiful, but that like probably is like the worst part of the job, honestly.

Like can't you just break up in peace?

Yeah, but it's, they broke up over the holidays.

So she's had a month of peace to like figure out.

And it's not like she's raw and having to share this.

Like she, it seemed, you know, she's a month into the process and she's ready to share.

So I think, you know, it's nice that none of this leaked or anything.

And she was able to let everyone else know on her own terms.

That's actually a really good point.

But it's also probably really hard to date when you're a morning show host because, you know, like in morning glory, you go to dinner at five o'clock and you have to wake up at like 3 a.m.

and that's just really not conducive for the dating scene.

But that's what we learned from that amazing, life-changing film is that it's best to kind of date someone in your industry.

And maybe Hoda can like get it, get into it with a producer or something, you know, someone who shares your timeline.

Someone who won't think it's weird to go to dinner at five o'clock and be in bed by 7:30.

Yeah, I think she needs to date a fellow morning show

person.

She needs to date in her circle.

Yeah.

Next story, some legal news.

Erica Jane has been dismissed from the embezzlement and fraud lawsuit against Tom Girardi.

So this weekend was like really crazy in the real house eyes of Beverly Hills world.

A lot's going on.

This is the biggest news.

The star has been dismissed from the embezzlement and fraud lawsuit against her estranged husband.

Quote, pursuant to stipulation, plaintiffs' claims against defendants, E.J.

Global, LLC, and Erica Girardi are dismissed without prejudice and without costs.

The legal documents read.

The ruling came one day after both parties agreed.

Dismissal is appropriate according to a separate filing, also obtained by page six.

Now,

people are reporting that this case has been dismissed.

It's just being moved to California, so it's like not actually

a legal win.

But in these articles, it doesn't say that.

So I'm confused.

Okay.

I just don't know when everyone with like a fan account on Instagram became like a legal expert.

Yes, a barrister.

So I guess, yes, technically, this could be dismissed just so they could redo it in a new state.

That I guess that's possible.

But for right now, I'm just believing what's in the news.

And Erica must be overjoyed.

Like, not only is this a huge burden off of her financially, emotionally,

but also it's like a big fuck you to like everyone who, all the doubters, non-believers.

yeah, it really is.

And for it to happen while they're filming, they're on a cash trip in Aspen.

I think there's been drama.

There's been like unfollowings between Sutton, Erica, Garcell.

Sutton re-followed Erica.

Garcell does not follow Erica, even though they're literally in Aspen right now on a trip, like sharing a plane.

And I think that there's a lot.

Beyond.

Yeah, plus now this is happening.

Plus, like witnesses saw them at, you know, one of their dinners or events, like, and there was a lot of drama happening.

So it's, it was like a big filming weekend for them.

And with this news, it's going to be even crazier.

But

to me, from what I was reading,

what I was trying to understand is like that this is not the end, but these headlines like make it seem like it's over.

So I'm really confused.

I mean, I guess we'll have to wait and see, and we'll see what Erica's explanation for it is on Housewives, but there's no way to know until there's another like case filed against her.

But for right now, there's not.

Right, right.

Exactly.

So we'll be

this is a win.

This, yeah, this is a win.

And I think in the last year, it's been, there's not been a lot of those for Erica.

So I'm sure she is beyond relieved.

Beyond.

And it's like a big fuck you to like

Sutton and just everyone who was like, Erica's going to be in jail.

I mean, I don't, I honestly haven't really, I don't know how I felt about this for a long time.

I felt very conflicted because at first I was like hell-bent on honestly her being fired.

She is responsible.

But then the more I heard her talk about it and the more things that came out, I was like, well, it's possible she didn't know.

And now, what is it, like a year and a half, two years later, I'm pretty sure homegirl didn't know.

I don't know.

I, I, I, I probably, I think she didn't know because I don't, I just don't think that she did.

And I think there was a lot of other things in her marriage that she didn't know either.

But the way that I ended with how I felt was like, I thought Erica was one person who was just like this whip smart, like nothing gets by her, sharp as a tack

kind of person.

And if it's true that she didn't know that all of these things were going on like in her home with her husband and he was really this like awful, awful person, then she's not that first person that I thought that she was.

And my admiration is

totally fair.

And my admiration is just not where it was pre-all of this.

But like if she's innocent and didn't know.

That doesn't make her an accomplice though.

Right, right.

Like stay on the show, that's totally fine.

Um, but it's just like changed how I saw her.

No, that's a good analysis of the situation.

Okay.

So, anyways, this is just like great for Beverly Hills.

I can't believe she's like, after last season, you just wouldn't have thought that there was any coming out of this for her.

But she's a fighter, as she said that she was.

The strongest substance isn't diamonds, it's her.

There was rumors she was going to be on Celebrity Big Brother.

Did she get cast?

I know Teddy Mellencamp did, but I think that Erica did not.

I didn't hear that rumor.

I just saw a picture of the cast recently.

People are quaking because Lamar Odom and Shanna Moekler.

Shanna Moekler.

Yeah.

They're both on, and they're both Kardashian exes.

So who knows?

They're both Kardashian associates.

Yeah, who knows?

I can't wait.

I mean, yeah, we'll see.

That's so funny.

Keep us posted if anything goes down because you know we won't be watching.

No, No, yeah, I don't watch, but it is an interesting concept for a show.

Oh, for sure, especially if you like the original show, but it's it's so much bandwidth and time.

Like, it's every single night.

The cameras that you have to watch online, it's just like a full-time job being a Big Brother fan, in my opinion.

Yeah, it's like Love Island, which you loved.

Yes, I'd love, I did love Love Island.

I can't wait for it to come back.

We didn't even talk about that Cash and Cinco broke up.

Ted Lasso?

Oh.

Okay.

Well, I was talking about how

they had a Love Island spoof show on Ted Lasso, which I loved.

Yeah, no, that was cute, but Cash and Cinco broke up.

That was a really very difficult pill to swallow.

Like,

because now Shannon and Josh are together and Kira and Will, right?

I haven't heard anything about Kira and Will.

Are they together?

I don't keep up with anyone.

I don't keep up with anyone.

I check in on the couples like every couple of weeks because I follow Shannon and Josh and they're so OTP that like it kills me and they should have won.

But Cash and Sinko was really, like, really heartbreaking.

That was a tough pill to swallow.

Like I was really upset.

Kira's Instagram looks like a single girl's Instagram.

There's no sign of Lou.

No.

Well, we know that Olivia and Corey broke up, even though they were never together.

So I think in the ladies broke up, they were fraudulent.

The whole country.

The nation.

They literally took the nation for a ride.

But not.

And they were fraudulent.

No, like, if no,

I don't feel like any sort of, you know, RDH about them because we sniff it out from the beginning.

But if you fell for that,

you know what?

If you fell for that, you deserved to

be fooled because you're easily fooled.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But

sad about Cash and Sinko, but they gave,

it's been, what, six, seven months since the show aired.

That's a good real shot at love.

You know, that's not just.

And I do think that that's not waiting the requisite time before it's acceptable to break up.

I mean, agreed, Corey, and all you know what you mean.

Yeah.

I just do think that, um,

like it was a great relationship.

I would like to think that it was a great relationship for both of them, and they look back on it fondly.

And I hope nobody cheated on one another.

It was just like a difference of lifestyle or wherever, you know, where residence.

Like, I just hope it's all ended in an amicable way.

Yes.

I feel like it, it probably did.

I don't know.

Okay.

You never know.

You never know.

Devastating.

Devastating.

Okay.

Well, are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Yes.

Okay.

It's some very sad news.

Miss USA 2019, Chesley Christ dies at age 30.

Miss USA 2019, Chesley has died.

Her family has confirmed to people she was 30 years old.

Authorities say she died Sunday after jumping from a 60-story building at 350 West 42nd Street in New York City around 7:15 a.m.

local time.

She reportedly lived on the ninth floor of the building and was last seen on the 29th floor terrace.

Her family put out a statement saying, In devastation and great sorrow, we share the passing of our beloved Chesley.

Her great light was one that inspired others around the world with her beauty and strength.

She cared, she loved, she laughed, and she shined.

This story just broke my heart.

This is so terrible.

So terrible.

Terrible.

Like, what?

Oh, my God.

I have no words, honestly.

No, and like, we were just talking about this.

Like, last week when we were talking about Regina King's

son.

Literally

so upsetting.

The mental health crisis

in this country, it's just, it's horrible.

And it's

like, look, you look at a girl like that with her whole life ahead of her who's so accomplished.

Like, you just want to cry when you hear the story.

Yeah, you really do.

Everyone, like, is writing, obviously, the sweetest tributes about her, but it just seems like she was one of those people who like lit up a room, brought so much joy to so many people.

And

to know that she was struggling to this point, it's just, it's heartbreaking.

It's so sad.

It's horrible.

Yeah.

And I just think, you know, we should all, like, when we hear these stories, like, learn from it in a sense and like like check in on our friends and family.

Because, like, look, you look at her, you see her Instagram, she's this beautiful girl, so accomplished.

You would never think in a million years that something like this would happen.

Yeah, that's what life is.

Like, everyone puts on a show, and inside, like, everyone is struggling in different ways.

So, just, I think the takeaway here is like, just be nice to everyone because you really never know what anyone's going through.

And just check in on your friends because you really never know.

Yeah, I would agree.

So, sad to end the stories on a sad note, but we'll turn it around with the Real Housewise of Salt Lake City recap.

So, the real house rise of Salt Lake City was yet again another infuriating episode, but it did end with the hot mic of all hot mics.

I was shook by what was coming out of Lisa Barlow's mouth because they teased she's fucked half of New York, but they didn't tease the rest of it.

Her family that is posing, her husband who gots a new job every five minutes.

It was wild.

And you know i tuned in to watch rapids live because i wanted to hear meredith's take on it and meredith meredith should literally like work in dc she is so like political in the sense like she's very well media trained she had the perfect answer she didn't stutter they asked her about jenny wen she had the perfect answer like she doesn't miss and so when when she was asked about the hot mic She said, well, there is truth in what she said.

Yes, my husband does change jobs quite frequently.

He's an executive of turnaround.

So he's doing his job well if he's moving to new jobs every couple of months.

So I thought that was a great answer.

She said she didn't know what that, what Lisa meant when she said, my family poses.

But she also said that her and Seth have been very open with one another.

They haven't seen other people for two years, but when they were separated, they did see other people.

And her and...

Seth have spoken about it.

So she hasn't fucked half of New York because it was only a couple years where they were seeing other people.

But yes, she's fucked other people.

She said, I've never fucked more than 10 people in my life.

So I couldn't even fuck half of New York.

Right.

I mean,

of course she didn't fuck half of New York.

She also accused Lisa of like projecting as if these are things about Lisa.

The family poses thing.

I think she's just calling her family posers, perhaps?

Maybe.

I don't think it was that like actually doing poses.

I don't know.

I'm sure there will be clarification.

But Andy clarified.

Remember how we did that story?

Because Andy said on radio, Andy, something happens between two ladies that we've never seen on Salt Lake City reunion.

This is it, which is a little bit of like a disappointment, but the fact that the night before the reunion, Meredith saw this and then is reacting to it the next day.

I think it's a lot.

And it's a lot more powerful than if like it aired.

They're obviously have phone conversations about it.

They rehash it at the reunion.

Like, I think it's very, very raw for Meredith.

And it's always nice to, you know,

get, put a button on some of the questions like, okay, what was he talking about?

And it's not this like big Jen Meredith thing it's this which is actually it was pretty crazy and the footage usually they over hype stuff this was under hyped agreed yeah agreed and the dinner in and of itself was just so chaotic like mary and jenny going after each other like it was so funny because mary's just like she's atrocious but she does have some like moments that are so iconic like so you don't want to be friends with jenny No, like, just very plain.

Why would they want to be friends?

Like, and Mary's right.

Like,

none of these women are friends.

Like, if it weren't for the show, they all act like they owe each other their lives and they should all have each other's backs.

Most of them met two years ago.

Like, let's not be stupid.

Like, so Whitney acting like her and Mary, her and Mary would never be friends in the real world.

Like, they couldn't be more different.

Yeah, all of these women, I mean, aside from the ones who came in as friends, like, would not be friends.

That's the thing with like Lisa and Whitney, like, and why they are really like oil and water because they're just like two different girls.

But, you know, the more that the rest of the group is divided, the more that they have come together because, like, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, I think.

And it's just, it's like, it's so like looking at like a board of this season and who's like aligned to who, who's having whose back, like, is so fucking confusing.

Like, the way that these fights just kept turning in different directions.

And like, everyone, when the, it was like hot potato.

And when like the drama came to them, they're like, this isn't my drama.

Like, but everybody is like weird

and involved in the drama and also irrelevant to it

and the way there's so much drama and so much animosity but not one conversation last night was had about Jen Shaw allegedly defrauding vulnerable and old people is beyond my comprehension like the fact that Jenny Jenny is so such a moron I'm sorry like the way that she sits there and is like really gaslighting everyone into thinking that Meredith's uh father's memorial was a lie like you're kidding right like for you're kidding like that is so stupid Whitney, Heather, Jenny,

so moronic.

Like, and none of them even want to look twice over at Jen Shah and be like, Hey, you lie all the time, and you were just arrested.

Should we talk about that ever?

Right.

Or no, let's keep making up things that Meredith

turned you into the FBI and that she lied about her fucking dad's memorial.

It's so stupid.

No, and like, Jen Shah says things with such conviction.

And it's like,

if you just turn it around on her,

it's like, it's so glaring and hypocritical.

Like, even, okay, they're accusing Meredith about lying about her dad's funeral, but like, Jen lied about her husband having internal bleeding in order to get off the bus.

Like, what about that?

And she never explained why she lied about that.

Right.

And so she says, like, if so-and-so, if Meredith can lie about this, what else is she lying about?

Jen, like, you've lied about your whole fucking life.

What else are you lying about?

It's just like, it's like the opinion of like people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, but it's like, so I'm just like, where?

And she says most of it in her interview, so like no one can really call her out.

But like, even if she said it at the table, like still no one would call her out.

Also, I saw a tweet last night that was like, she gave all the women diamond necklaces, which is like so crazy on a number of levels, while she also like drained her mother's retirement fund in order to pay her legal bills.

Like, why not just return those necklaces that you had just bought and that the women didn't even know existed?

I'm extremely grateful to Meredith for being the only normal one to point out like she has like a $2 million legal bill.

They're talking about moving into into a different house.

Her mother, who's a teacher who saved up her whole life, is draining her retirement fund to defend her daughter in a legal battle against the FBI.

And no one's curious why she's the only housewife who brought Glam.

She paid for dinner and gave everyone diamond necklaces.

These women are morons.

I'm sorry.

They are dropping the ball so hard.

They're fighting between themselves about nothing,

nothing.

And nobody has questioned Jensha since the moment she got arrested.

This is the worst group of housewives I've ever,

like literal amateur hour.

It's beyond my comprehension how bad.

Whitney and Heather are two of the worst housewives.

I literally, every time they speak, I'm like, wrong.

Dumb thing to say.

Wrong.

Everything is wrong.

Everything they fucking say is wrong.

It's infuriating.

Yeah, I.

Retweet.

I completely agree.

It's like staring right in front of them and then instead they're like looking for other leads.

What day was Meredith's dad's funeral?

Even though, like, a perfectly logical explanation.

So stupid.

I can't.

A perfectly logical explanation.

There are so many, but one could be.

On Monday was the memorial.

Tuesday, before the women got there, she was still with her family.

So when Lisa is like, I'm sorry to call you with your family, she's like, it's just so stupid.

They really think they have a smoking gun when there is a gun on fire in front of them.

And they're like, where?

Who?

Refusing to look at it.

It's so crazy.

It's so stupid.

And the fact that this reunion that Lisa Barlow lost her shit

over

what we saw last night is crazy.

Like the fact that Meredith and I'm not sure what to do with that.

And that's what Andy said on Watch Happens Live.

And Meredith said that apparently it had stemmed from Lisa had heard Meredith called her house ugly, even if it was that.

But like Lisa started, not to be like she started it, but like Lisa started this whole trend of I'm not picking friends over friends and I can be friends with Meredith and I can be friends with Jen, even though the two of you fucking hate each other and even though one of you has been my friend for 10 years and has like long before this show I'm still gonna you know be just as get closer than ever with someone who really really hurt you so now the fact that Meredith is being like okay we can do that we can have you know friends and just try not to be involved

and and that's Lisa's reaction it's she these women just can't see themselves and I actually do like Lisa and I'm sure that's something like that's exactly what Bridget Everett said on watch rapids live Live, by the way.

She's like, literally, Lisa started this whole thing.

Oh, amazing.

I actually watched, I watched most of Watch What Happens Live, but I must have missed that.

Bridget is everything.

She really is.

She was totally on the right side of history.

Like, I just love her.

You love to see it.

No, Meredith, I agree with you.

She is such a politician and so diplomatic, and just never, she really.

And I think that's also what makes her a frustrating housewife.

It's so crazy.

Like, do you ever look at the tweets after Salt Lake City to see like what the temperature is?

Even though I can't.

Even though.

Because I know that we are in the minority,

not take us out of it.

Every

there's no like clear majority from what I've seen on Twitter, even though I think oftentimes like the tweets, especially the ones that are really popular, don't represent how a lot of people feel.

But like, there are some people who are like, Meredith Mark Stan, there are other people who are like, like, she's the worst.

There are people who are like, Mary Cosby can do no wrong.

There are other people.

And it's like, there's no clear

goat of the show.

Narrative.

You know, it's so, it's it's so odd.

People are like, Whitney's iconic.

Like, what?

What?

No, Whitney's literally the definition of not iconic at all.

Like, she's literally the worst.

She's really.

Her and Heather, like, they just, they got so confident after everyone loved them season one that they turned into villains.

Oh, and there's also people who are like, Lisa is, like, the, the, she know, queen, like, me, like, everything is just.

Honestly, I could

see someone standing Lisa.

I could see someone standing Meredith.

I don't see how anyone in their right mind, anyone with a working brain cell, could be on Whitney and Heather's side.

Honestly, they are such bullies.

People think he's so delusional.

There are people who think like Whitney and Heather are like the queens of this show, keeping it going.

I don't know.

There are people who think it's Jenny.

There are people who think it's really like, it's so crazy.

I've never seen a response

like that.

That's all over the place.

Nobody thinks it's Jenny.

She like really, every time she speaks, thinks she's doing something.

And I just like want to die inside.

It's like, girl, stop.

Like, for all, stop.

This is like not about you, but like, I appreciate what you're trying to do here.

But, like, seriously, just shut up.

Yeah.

No, and the conversation at the spa when she was like sharing and trying to open up.

And I think once like she saw that Mary wasn't going to do the same, and that is how you, okay.

So they got off on the wrong foot.

Mary apologized.

Today's a new day.

Like, we're with Meredith, who is like a mutual good friend of ours.

And like, maybe we'll just like open up and get a little closer.

That is like how friendships progress.

But once Mary was like, no, I'm not talking about this.

I don't know you.

Message received.

Move on.

Like, move on.

And also.

Mary has just made it extremely clear.

She's not interested in one iota of a friendship with Jenny.

So Jenny needs to seriously move on.

It's not happening.

And also,

the fact that Jenny only brought it up at the dinner table once Mary had gotten up, it's just like weak.

Weak.

Weak, spineless behavior.

Like, bring it up when Mary's sitting there or don't bring it up at all.

Because, you know, it was, it was, could have been a done moot point.

But like, like, oh my God,

when Heather and started coming for Mary and Mary was like, because you don't have a husband, which was like such a mean thing to say.

Okay.

But then Mary just walked

right into who

husband slander.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

I have something to say.

Okay.

I actually don't think it was that mean of a thing to say because in the preview, I'm like, oh my God, that's really rude.

Why are you just randomly bringing up?

But Jenny is throwing in Mary's face.

Jenny and Heather are like, you know, Dewey was one of the husbands who paid for this.

So like, you know, you're on a trip that was technically purchased by,

okay,

Heather, your husband didn't pay for anything because you don't have a husband.

It sounded mean, but they were like throwing the money thing in Mary's face.

And Mary threw it right back.

Who the fuck are you to say that, Heather?

Your husband didn't pay for anything.

Sorry.

I didn't see it like that.

I thought it was fair.

I thought she was saying it like, because I guess it's like unclear.

First of all, did the husbands even pay for this trip or was it Bravo?

Like, I.

Yes.

They're claiming the husbands paid for it.

Okay.

Would that include Robert Sr.

unclear?

So if it's not Robert Sr.

and all if the husbands really paid for it and Robert Sr.

didn't and everybody knew that, then yes, Heather's saying her husband sent her on this trip.

And then Mary might have taken that as a slight.

I see that.

But when I watched it last night, that's not how I took it.

I thought Heather was being like, the husband sent us here to, you know, like rapprochement and get along and make everything better.

And Mary just just like

sort of threw that in her face and was like, you don't have a husband and just walked right into step-grandfather territory.

Heather literally said like Dewey paid for it.

Like she brought up the money.

And I'm sorry, I thought Mary was 100% justified in that nasty comment for real.

Have you also seen these rumors that Mary is filming this next season?

New rumors, rumors afresh, that she's like filming personal scenes.

That's why they went to look for her at the church.

But then last night on Watch What Happens Live, Meredith's dead, Mary's no longer on the show.

So I'm confused.

Yeah, no, I don't think those rumors are true.

That would make literally no sense.

It would make no sense.

And I do think it would set a horrible precedent because then women could skip reunions.

I think having that, like, be like, I don't care who you are.

I don't care how much you bring to the show.

Agree.

If you don't come to the reunion and answer

for what you've done, then you're out.

And I think

even though like the show would benefit from having Mary on it, I think it would be a horrible precedent.

So, I'm just, we'll see.

Agreed.

Agreed.

Okay.

Because then women will do it all the time.

It's a good episode, honestly.

I guess it's just, it grinds my gears to see such illogic

being

displayed

on my television.

Like, I don't know how much more I can take.

I hope, and I actually,

I do not envy Andy's job at the reunion of trying to sift through this garbage

because it's like, it's a maze.

It's just, there's no clear path of what even are the root issues.

You don't have my back?

I hope Andy has his head on straight.

I hope Andy has his head on straight.

Like, I just, I pray he doesn't drop the ball because these women have fumbled so atrociously and wasted what could have been an amazing season.

And I know a lot of people still like the season and people are always telling us, you guys are in the minority.

Okay, that might be true, but I've been watching Housewives for literally 15 years.

I know what this season could have been, and I know what it is, and I know it's not as good as it should have been.

Yeah, and I just, I like to watch people making sense, making good points, and like being shrewd.

And that's logical.

That's not what I'm getting.

So it's disappointing.

No.

Um, but other than that, that's our show.

That is our show.

I'm glad we got that off our chest, but it's just, it makes me feel like I'm losing my mind, even recapping Salt Lake City sometimes because I'm like, what is going on?

Truly.

Totally.

I don't know.

Tomorrow, what's on tonight?

Nothing.

Nothing for us, but you'll watch Euphoria and maybe I'll get back into Paul Dark.

But even though I think I need a longer break from Ross Paul Dark and his antics.
