S5 Ep14: Toasters in The Locker Room: Monday, January 24th, 2022

Good morning, Millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Monday.

Now, if you're watching on YouTube, I don't want to scare you.

I really, really don't.

But I need to issue a trigger warning because Claudia is wearing her spooky, scary skeleton pajamas.

And for all those of you listening as a podcast, it might be the reason to switch to YouTube today.

No, or it might not be.

If you're feeling already like the Sunday scaries might have scared you off, stay far away from the YouTube channel of the morning toast and definitely don't subscribe to our channel.

Oh no.

That's spooky.

Yes, I'm wearing my spooky scary skeletons and shivers down your spine.

I don't know.

I was just feeling it.

I slept in these pajamas and I was usually like I do my makeup in my pajamas and then I put on like an appropriate sweater or a blouse.

But I thought what's more appropriate for a Monday than spooky scary skeletons sending shivers down your spine?

It's a spooky Monday.

I think you capture the vibe.

Plus your glam is so on point today that it really

balances.

You have balance in your look.

So firmly believe in living a balanced lifestyle.

That's kind of what my whole brand is about.

Yes, my glam is on point today because I just have the busiest day.

Meetings, meetings, meetings?

Meetings, meetings, meetings.

I think you might have forgotten that tomorrow, let me just make sure of the date.

Tomorrow is the launch of my paperback book.

So I've got some press to do today.

I have um

yeah, your girl, I don't know if I should say it.

I didn't even tell you yet already, but I'm just gonna be on like a local, not a local, a national news segment.

That's so exciting.

I'll need to set my TiVo.

But the TiVo, the number one reason I'm wearing glam like this is because I did a TikTok this morning, like a transition using my new song and it came out so good because I look like gorgeous.

I didn't really intend to look like that, this gorgeous, like this threatening to other women, but check out my tick tock okay you have to send it to me when you i feel like you only send me like the mediocre tick tocks because you're like is this funny or is this not but like send me the bangers i didn't realize like i was capable of putting out mediocre tick tocks that's brand new information to me it happens it happens not

not everyone can hit obviously no that's true like some of them need to be mediocre in order for the others to be great otherwise there's no nothing to compare it to yeah for sure well while you're wearing your spooky scary skeletons let me just tell you how how cool I am today.

You probably think like, oh, you're just wearing a hoodie?

Like, yeah, that's what I'm saying.

I'm phoning it in.

This is the Gap Yeezy hoodie.

What did you pay for it?

Zach got it for me.

So.

Oh, it's a gift.

Doesn't count.

Yeah, but also it's gap prices.

I think it was MAC.

I think it was like $80.

Oh, okay.

$80.

Can you do a spin for us?

Sure.

It's just blue.

It's just blue.

Like, there's something, it's really thick and heavy, but like in a nice, comfortable way.

Yeah.

And it's kind of like cropped.

So I think I'm wearing a large, but it looks like a fitted sweatshirt.

Got it.

Got it.

Okay, cool.

I was very interested.

I'll see that in person.

Yeah, no, definitely.

Come check it out.

Do you get my reference?

$80.

From my show, right?

Yeah.

But that, that, okay, Jaggie loves to quote my comedy special, which is so kind of you available to stream for free on Amazon Prime.

That was.

It didn't make it.

It didn't make the cut.

I only used it in like one show and like it wasn't great, but you were really kind of moved by it.

I was.

It stuck out to me you can do

you can help what lives in your mind rent free

and this is why i have to see your new tour because i need new material i actually can't believe that you have not seen my new tour i've i saw the first show the first new york show on video yes

um

but yeah no beyond that i know that it's changed a lot and i i don't know the tropes i don't know the one-liners and that's also like happening this week i'm back on the road i'm going to dc on Thursday and Friday to Parks Casino in Philly.

And I'm actually really excited.

Like, I really like taking long breaks between shows.

But then, like, when it's the day before the show, I'm like, oh my God, I wish my last show wasn't over a month ago.

Yeah, but it's fine.

You've got your skeleton boys with you.

You'll take them back.

They've got your back.

And your friend.

And my side.

And my crutch.

Yeah.

We have a great show for you guys.

It's Monday.

Lots of happenings that we must discuss.

Also, lots of TV recap.

I did finish Ted Lasso I have a lot of thoughts for the TV recap I watched Euphoria last night and then of course the worst show on television with not a hero in sight the real housewives of Salt Lake City we'll be discussing that in the TV recap as well you needed to finish Ted Lasso because what you left us with on Friday, your assessment, I just needed to be able to talk about it.

I won't spoil it.

We'll talk about it in the TV recap, but it needed to be addressed and I couldn't let you think, like, keep going like that.

No, you're 100% right.

Yeah, so that's really exciting that you

don't let them fuck it.

How's the song going?

Great.

I mean, the TikToks are,

they're difficult for me because I'm really not a dancer.

After our show on Friday, I like spent 30 minutes learning the TikTok dance to my song and it's up.

It's not great, but I tried, you know, it was.

I thought it was good.

Okay.

Okay.

Thank you.

It was a complex dance, you know, not your typical basic TikTok dance.

It's not like other dances.

No, it's not, but would you expect anything less from someone who's not like other girls?

I wouldn't.

So there you have it.

So I hope everyone had a good weekend listening to the song, drinking.

I did nothing this weekend.

I felt like you.

Like I did not leave my house.

I didn't move a muscle.

Like if you watch my Instagram stories yesterday, you know that I had 91 steps at the end of the day.

And I was very proud of that.

Sometimes self-care looks like 91 steps.

Couldn't have said it better.

But I do think more often than not, self-care looks like hard work.

The more I think about self-care self-care and like the meaning of it, I think the term has really become like completely watered down.

But I do think most often self-care looks like hard work.

I agree because for me, when I'm like busy, booked, productive, that is really unfortunately when I feel my best.

And when I'm doing nothing, even though I'm enjoying it at the time, I go through an existential crisis.

Like, is this what my life is meant to be?

Yeah.

So sometimes you have to put in the work in order to enjoy true self-care.

How are you feeling today, Preggio?

I'm feeling pretty good.

You know, mornings are my time to shine.

It's so, I'm two different people.

Like I'm Hannah Montana and Miley Stewart.

Like in the morning, I am Hannah.

And then in the evening, I'm crabby old Miley.

No, you're like Jackson.

It's so, it's so crazy.

But, you know, it's, we're just enjoying this time.

But it's a wild ride, you guys.

It's a journey.

My weekend was

filled with hobbies, actually.

I got a lot done.

First of all, I started playing Wordle thanks to you.

Oh, did you do today's?

No, not yet.

Me neither.

I started it, and it's pretty hard.

I'm only on, I only did two tries already.

Oh, I try to like do it, you know, in one sitting.

I don't know why I feel like someone's timing me.

They're not.

And I usually do it in one sitting too, but I was just like doing my makeup.

I'm like, oh my God, Wordle.

Oh, wow.

No, I'll save that for later.

It'll be my big activity.

It's very exciting.

And I also, I did a crossword puzzle.

I've been doing piano lessons.

Me and Brew do about like 30 minutes a day.

We have two pieces that we're working on.

Brewing Brew tickling the ivories.

Brew's like, mom, you stink.

Mom, you're off.

No, by the way, you know how he does that thing with his head.

He like cocks it to the right when he hears something.

When he hears something.

You'll be practicing and like playing a wrong note and you'll turn around and Brew's like,

Yeah, no, he's a really tough critic.

But it's been good for the brain.

And then I started a new show, which a lot of people told me I would like.

It's called Pole Dark, and it's on Amazon Prime.

It's a period piece, you know,

Cornwall 1785.

And it's good.

It's enjoyable.

So it's kind of slow.

So like I can't just watch it all day long.

But I'm in the middle of season two and there's some likable characters.

So I'm happy.

Okay, good.

Yeah.

It looks like we both had both productive and relaxing weekends.

Precisely.

That's wonderful news.

You love to hear it.

So yeah, like that's really it for me.

I've not much to update everyone on since Friday because I didn't leave my bed since the last time we podcasted.

Yeah, I feel kept abreast and I feel like without further ado, to do to do, we can get into

you to do where is do to do to do on the bed right there behind me.

I would like to turn my screen and show you my bed, but there's something about like showing someone like your YouTube channel, like your bed.

And I haven't staged the side of the room.

I only stage what's behind me.

Like, it feels very personal and invasive.

It's all wrong.

Don't do it.

It is, right?

Okay, I'm not doing it.

Yeah.

That's like when you go to someone's house and they like want to show you around and they want to show you their parents' room.

So I'll wait by the door.

I'll just wait outside.

I'll just wait right here.

Oh, no.

I'll wait down the block.

You like poke your head in and you're like, oh, nice.

Yeah.

Hi, Mrs.

Stevenson.

I think like there's something crazy about like kids who like invite their friends into their parents' rooms.

It just feels very personal.

I totally agree.

So that's what's going on to my left.

Got it.

We won't go into your room without further ado to do to do.

Thank you so much, Claudia.

And before we get into the stories, we actually do need to talk about something, and it's a bit of sports news.

Oh, we do.

Because the sports were on last night, football, it was like the semifinals, and we were, sorry, you were very close.

We both made predictions for who we thought we would be in the Super Bowl.

We made them months ago when there was like no real information.

Just, you know, taking a shot in the dark.

And up until last night, like, you had a chance.

A pretty good chance.

Bucks versus Bills.

Bucks versus Bills.

Now the Bucks are out, which is and the Bills.

And the Bills.

Oh, okay.

Okay.

Yeah.

No, last night was not a good night for my fantasy chart.

Right.

But I just want to congratulate you for having made it that far.

I think that's pretty cool, considering your lack of actually guessed.

Right.

And so before we get into the fast five, I think we need to put in our predictions.

We need to update them based on the information that's given.

Okay, here's the thing: I'm not going to, I don't want to predict.

I want to put my full support behind one team.

And once you hear why, Jackie, you're going to want to do the same.

Okay, so here's who's contending still.

We have the Rams

versus the 49ers, and then Kansas City versus Team

Whoever Beat the Bucks.

No, frick, what's their name?

It's like

some charades, do charades.

No, I

oh, I mean, I could just

SPN.

I think so.

It's like a weird animal, it feels like.

And it's not a team we talk about often.

A jaguar.

This is no, no, no.

This is infuriating.

I know people on the other end are probably like these two morons.

Yeah.

Ms.

Pucks, hold on.

Who beat the Bucs?

Babe.

Zach.

Oh my God, I can't.

I'll just look at that.

Just call husbands.

I don't think he can hear me.

They're the ones who beat the Buccaneers.

Yeah, babe, who's in the Super Bowl?

Oh, my God.

Oh, sorry.

We're recording.

But it's so it's Rams versus 49ers.

Okay, sorry.

Oh my god.

Tell him to just get on with it.

Rams versus 49ers.

Yeah.

And Chiefs,

Bengals.

That's the animal.

I'm unfamiliar with their work.

Yeah.

That's right.

But I do want to say that we at the Toast have made an official decree as to who we're supporting.

We have.

And you're going to get behind it once you.

I totally forgot to tell you this.

Okay.

We are rooting for

the San Francisco 49ers.

It's their time.

There is a toaster on the team.

On the field and off the field.

I just found this out last night from Ben.

There's a toaster on the field.

His name is Kyle Yuschek.

His wife is an enormous toaster and he messaged Ben that his wife is a toaster and he actually listens quite a lot and he enjoys it.

Kyle Yuschek, the 49ers, have our support.

Oh my God.

Of course.

I'm throwing all of my weight behind them now.

And he's like really good too.

It's not like he's like, you know, a scrub.

Yeah.

Wow.

Okay.

That's so interesting.

So you're saying it's the 49ers time.

I'm saying, and I do believe the last time I accurately predicted a Super Bowl, I predicted that it was not the 49ers time.

Right.

And now I'm saying it is.

That's so interesting because before I knew this important factoid that changes everything,

I would have said, like, I would probably have chosen the Rams over the 49ers.

And also because the Super Bowl is taking place in LA,

it would be like another cool thing where, you know, the home team is having, hosting the Super Bowl.

Well, it's still California, so I just want to say it's still pretty cool.

Yeah, still pretty cool.

And then on the other side, I think the Chiefs will beat the Bengals, considering I couldn't even remember their name.

Me too.

And I just want to say, like, for my POV, I really was like a Chiefs girly

until the lead quarterback, Patrick,

and his brother.

Like, you know, I've come on here many times and talked about his brother's TikTok.

Yeah, yeah, no, I know him.

I know him by name, Austin.

Yeah, Jackson.

No.

I know him by name.

That's not his name.

It's It's Jackson.

Austin Mahomes.

That's the second time in as many weeks his name has come up.

Literally.

Well, his brother,

you know, I'm always a fierce defender of Jackson Mahomes.

I think the kids on TikTok are really mean to him.

But you know what?

Like, his content has taken a shift and it's like really painful to watch.

And I think that he should stop.

Okay.

And you think like going to the Super Bowl, it just won't, it won't be good for him.

No, because I think of the content that we're gonna get at the Super Bowl, and I'm not interested.

Okay, and we also like already got that, yeah, so he needs-he needs new shtick.

I just hate when there's like one team that's like so good all the time.

Like, I get it because, like, Patrick is the best, but like, it's kind of annoying.

But I don't think any of these four teams are the one team that's good all the time.

I think the Chiefs are, actually, like, they're always just like winning.

No, I think they're really strong and solid, but they won the one time and they like it could be their time again.

No, but like, it's not like

Patriots at that time, they're always at the top of their game, like they're giving early vibes of the Patriots.

That's what I'm saying.

No, I don't feel that way, but I understand that you might.

I know more than you, yeah.

No, I think I do.

I have just an intuition for these things.

Oh, yeah.

Remind me who were your picks again for who was going to the Super Bowl?

Seahawks.

The Seahawks versus

the Bucks.

Okay.

So yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's a 40.

Intuition.

It's the 49ers time.

You heard it here first from Page of Page 6 Sports tomorrow.

It's the 49ers time.

Okay, very cool.

We're wishing, we're sending our best wishes to all the toasters in locker rooms all over.

Don't get it twisted.

There are actually quite a few toasters.

Ready?

When I go on tour, I find out where like the professional athletes, who are toasters, are they, that come out of the woodwork.

When I was in New Orleans, I found out Will Lutz, the kicker for the Saints, who's very good.

Well, his wife's a toaster, but he came to the show.

He was so cute.

She was so cute.

Nice to know that New Orleans is taken care of with the steeny vibes.

Yeah, for sure.

but there aren't i can't imagine there are that many athletes listening

male athletes listening to toast it's it's you know it's the wags and girls it's the wags i wouldn't say that i wouldn't say that you'd really never know look at kyle yuszchek look at kyle yuszchek okay can't wait i have to get a jersey literally with the toast logo cute because like it's the super bowl but like between us like it's really about us right It's always about us.

I'm so glad we are on the same page.

Now I think we can get into the Fast Five stories.

I just needed to update everyone.

Yeah, no, I'm glad we circled back.

Our first story, a lot of news coming out this weekend about Garrett Hedlund and Emma Roberts.

First of all, they split up.

And second of all, he has been arrested for public intoxication.

Okay, am I crazy or has this entire series of events like already happened?

Not to me.

Some of it.

They've broken up before.

Yeah,

I always assumed they were on-off.

I didn't know that they were on and now they're off.

And

then he was arrested for public intoxication Saturday night in Tennessee, but he also is in a suit of a prior DUI.

He's had like drunken behavior, criminal behavior before.

So there's this is not the first time something like this has happened, but he was arrested and taken into custody in Franklin County with a bond set at $2,100.

Ooh, Franklin County is so nice.

The arrest occurred just one day after news broke that he split from girlfriend Emma Roberts.

The two share one child together, one-year-old son, Rhodes.

According to People, who was the first to break the news on Friday, they called it quits a few weeks ago following a few rocky months in their relationship.

An insider said, It's sad, and

they're trying their best to co-parent.

It's been hard.

Also, he is being sued for negligence after allegedly causing a head-on collision when he fell asleep at the wheel while driving in LA in January 2020.

In court docs obtained by E-News, he allegedly, quote, passed out behind the wheel of his vehicle and ran a solid red light at a high rate of speed, forcing him to crash into a woman and her daughter.

Yeah.

So now he's being sued.

So this is.

You know what that means.

You're done with him.

And this one's, this is like what I was saying with Tiffany Haddish.

Sometimes it's easier than others.

Like Sam Hunt, very easy to write off.

Tiffany Haddish, a little hard.

This, extremely hard.

Garrett Hedlund is the star of two of my favorite movies.

What's the second one?

Country Strong.

Oh, and Georgia Rule.

Georgia Rule.

And did you know he was in the Friday Night Lights movie?

I never saw it.

Me neither.

But they called him the Friday Night Lights actor, and so I had to Google it.

Okay, that's a stretch and a half.

He's clearly the country strong actor.

Yeah.

So, anyways, this is all just crazy timing.

I do believe that they broke up a while ago, and then this story was dropping, and Emma wants nothing to do with this.

So now, news of their split is resurfacing.

But we must have known this January 2020 DUI news back in January 2020 and just like.

Yes, no, I'm telling you.

I've heard this before.

Right.

So this man needs help.

Like, yeah, and like, no wonder his relationship with with his, the mother of his child's Rocky.

Like, he's unwell.

Yeah.

Yeah.

This is really fucked up.

I'm sorry,

China.

Like, I can't really fuck with you anymore, Garrett.

And I know how much, you know, that probably means to you, but this is really upsetting.

This is upsetting, truly.

What are you doing?

I just, I can't go on another rant, but like, it's just not that hard to not drink and drive, like, especially when you get paid millions of dollars for one movie.

Yeah.

Well, most, this one on Saturday night was public intoxication.

but like if you're getting arrested for being drunk, like you're just like, your drinking is not ready.

Yeah, if I haven't gotten arrested for public intoxication, really nobody should.

Okay, and I think that's the good test.

Okay,

are you ready for our next story?

A little more couple news.

Yeah, Nick Jonas and wife Priyanka Chopra welcomed a baby girl as they announced the arrival of their first child together via surrogate.

We are overjoyed.

So on Friday, Nick and Pri put out a statement saying that they have a Bebe girl that they welcomed via surrogate last week and they're just overjoyed.

Yes, there's actually a lot to this story that is beyond the just quote card that they posted.

Their baby was born 12 weeks early.

Yes, I saw that.

They were expecting baby to be due in April, according to Daily Mail, and it's January.

Which is always really scary.

Yeah.

But I'm sure that they have the best care and we're all rooting for them.

Yeah, for sure.

And then on TikTok, people are quaking.

Like, I've somehow ended up on like Nick and Priyanka Talk.

And they're quaking about, you know, in the article, it says, like,

Priyanka hasn't struggled with any fertility issues, just like scheduling-wise, like, they decided to go be a surrogate.

And people are like, you know, this is so offensive to like women who struggle with fertility.

And, like, I guess, but, like, if that was me, and like, I was working and being famous and I also wanted to have a child, like, how great is that?

Yeah, no, I thought we were like done judging women for shit like this.

Yeah, I mean, that sounds like Nick Talk is a little bit regressive

regressive over there and also sure that's what that said, but you never know what's going on with people.

Right, what does page six know about Priyanka Chopra's fertility?

Right.

Like it, it's not just like an on-off button, like you can or you can't.

Like there are so many different factors that go into it and so much like I just

She's also a woman of a certain age, which obviously changes the risk of the pregnancy.

Like who cares?

Like literally, who cares?

Right, exactly.

So I'm happy for them.

This is really sweet.

I mean, obviously, like, the Joe Bros love just family and, and having, and now, like, this is just so cute.

All the little cousins will be running around.

No, it is really cute.

It, like, completes a trifecta, and it actually officially, like, makes us old.

You, do you think this is what makes us old?

Nick was the youngest.

Like, and like, when, when he came into our lives, like, he was actually prepubescent.

And, like, now he has a child.

Yeah.

Well, he's 29.

No, I mean, it's, he's on track.

Like, it all makes sense, yeah.

But, like, for us, it just puts things in perspective.

How about that?

Yeah, and I guess, like, all of the girly girls were like going to the tour because, like, back in the day, like, we were obsessed.

It's like, and some of those girly girls are still single, and like, we're holding out hope that maybe they were the one for Nick Jonas, and like, this Priyanka thing wasn't gonna last, yeah.

But no, this is definitely all three, they were taken.

And if you need another sign, they are taken.

Yeah, maybe it's time to get into a new band.

Yeah,

what's a new band?

I don't know.

What's that band that's like everywhere?

AJR?

Huh?

They're a cool new rock band.

You should check them out.

You know about a cool new rock band?

I do.

What is it?

They sing that song.

Don't dun dun, don't da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da.

Go out with a bang.

You know that song.

No.

You do.

It's really cool with the kids.

Everyone's talking.

Oh, is it?

I'm not.

No, I swear.

I swear.

I believe you.

i swear it was in the commercial for kardashians last season if you heard it you would know friends if you heard it you would know it yeah for sure but i'm not clear what you're talking about at this current moment well you're a guest just not as up on what's cool no it's possible like i'm not as gen z as you it's called a jr check them out a jr okay i'll check him out i think um

also what was the last thing i was gonna say oh you know what like From the moment that these two got together, like there has been so much doubt, and myself included, like, I have to take responsibility for my actions.

Like, there has been so much doubt.

Um,

even like when they were engaged, like, are they even going to get married?

But, you know, through every life stage, like they have just persevered.

And, you know what?

I'm here to say I was wrong.

And there are a lot of people out there who are wrong who like still refuse to admit they're wrong.

That's crazy.

I mean, I came around to it over a year ago.

Like, and I already have admitted that I was wrong.

And I'm happy to be wrong about this one because they just seem like really happy.

And watching the roast most recently, I feel like that was like the biggest glimpse we've had into their relationship.

And like they are just, they're the real deal.

They're the real deal.

I'm like, it's time we all got on board, honestly.

Yeah, if you're one of the people who's like lagging behind, you've got to get on the ship.

It's

like

the world's biggest denier.

Like ever.

Yeah.

No, it's crazy how we felt then.

Yeah.

Like there was, and that was also at a time when like so many celebrity relationships popped up and turned into engagements that fizzled out really quickly.

Like Ariana and Pete.

Ariana and Pete, Haley and Justin.

And I just like threw these two in the boat with them and I was like, yeah, we're not going anywhere.

Yeah.

And then like the wedding was like legit and then they just never stopped being married.

So we have no choice but to believe.

Yeah.

No, doubters, non-believers, get once were her dreamers.

Exactly.

So muscle tove to the fam.

Very, very happy for them.

That was some exciting, surprising news.

Very surprising because like, It just came out of nowhere.

It's not like we're pregnant.

It's like, oh, there's a child.

Yeah.

Okay, our next story is very sad.

Regina King's son has died by suicide.

Ian Alexander Jr., the only son of renowned actress Regina King, has died by suicide.

The Academy Award winner confirmed the tragic news in a statement to people on Friday.

They said, Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian.

He is such a bright light who cared so deeply about the happiness of others.

Our family asks for respectful consideration during this private time.

Thank you.

Oh, this is just awful.

This is such an awful story.

His 26th birthday was on Wednesday.

He was Regina's only child with her ex-husband.

And I mean, this just like breaks the heart.

The mental health crisis

in this country right now is not to be ignored.

Yet it is.

Like, and I saw on like a page six article, you know, he had some like haunting last posts on social media.

And some of the tweets he had sent out before, you know,

before,

were like, you know, Instagram's bad for my health.

Like, it was just really like a cry for help.

Yeah.

No, it's really upsetting.

And I also, I feel like in the last even few days or week, like so many celebrities have passed away.

Yes.

Also, Chris Daughtry's daughter.

Oh my God, so sad.

Passed away last week too.

Meatloaf.

I don't think we spoke about him.

No, Ben was really like on the verge of tears when he heard Meatloaf died.

I didn't know.

Oh, and last night, Terry Muglaire.

Right, right.

I didn't know Ben was such a big Meatloaf fan until I saw his Instagram.

Oh my God.

Have you never been like in a karaoke machine with Ben?

I guess not.

I would do anything.

And it's like an eight-minute song.

It's so fucking annoying.

Oh, yeah, and that's really Ben's like his key.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's his perfect pitch.

I can hear him singing it.

It's one of the most annoying things ever.

And like, especially when we get together with Taylor Streker and Taylor Donahue, it's also Taylor Donahue's like favorite song.

So the two of them, like, I just can't.

Oh, wow.

You learned something new every day.

I didn't know you guys had all this going on.

And it's Ben's go-to shower song.

So, like, I hear it all the time.

Oh.

When he gets in in the shower, he's like, Alexa, play Meatloaf.

Oh, yeah, he was really upset.

There have been a few celebrities in the last couple years that, like, really got to Ben.

Betty White,

Kobe,

Meatloaf.

Yeah.

And it's funny because, like, because you know, for us, like, our whole lives are like pop culture celebrity.

Like, we are very vocally invested in certain people.

But Ben's not like that.

He just goes about and like gets influenced by who he gets influenced by.

Like, Betty White.

So, it's just interesting to see like the cycle of

celebrity celebrities

makes an impact on you, really.

And out of all the, no, no, that wasn't a question.

It's like, oh, you know, there's, there's, sorry, that's like a lot to ask of someone.

No, I mean, who makes an impact on one?

Yeah.

You know, of all the celebrities out there, singers, comedians, et cetera.

Like, some people just stick with you.

Bob Sagett is another one who just passed away.

And did you actually see the news story about John Mayer?

I thought it was like really menshi.

You know, he.

The plane.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Do you want to share?

Yeah, it was just this article basically saying that John Mayer was the one who paid for and chartered a plane from Orlando to

LA to get Bob's remains back in time for the ceremony because Bob's Jewish and if you're Jewish, you have to be buried like the day after you die or the day extenuating circumstances

autopsy.

Yeah.

ASAP.

So I thought that was very menshy.

And it wasn't like, you know, a John Mayer published article.

It was like a source really revealed it.

And did you watch the Instagram live of

Jeff Ross and John Mayer?

No.

So they were like driving in this little car

and they went on Instagram Live and they were like, we are, they're obviously just like really, really close with Bob and his wife and are trying everything to like be helpful.

So they had driven to the airport.

They took an Uber to the airport and picked up Bob's Prius because he drove himself to the airport for his gigs.

And they were just talking about how like, you know, Bob was such a star.

Like he could have had a limousine taken to the airport, but he always drove his Prius because he was like a workhorse.

And they were just like getting really emotional in the car because, like, this car was like symbolic of like Bob.

It was really, really sweet.

That's really sweet.

I saw that they picked up his car, but I didn't know that they went live on the way.

And they were just like sharing little stories.

It was very sweet.

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

So it's been just like a heavy time you're right, like a beginning of the year that feels like heavier than most.

Yeah, I feel that's how I feel.

So

sending love to everyone.

Yeah.

Okay, our next story.

Jennifer Coolidge says Ariana Grande saved her career during a dead zone.

Can I tell you, I'm so, I meant to text you that I wanted to do this as a story.

I'm so glad you brought it up.

Oh, okay, good.

I think it's just

the cutest, sweetest thing.

A Jennifer Coolidge renaissance is in the making, and it's all thanks to Ari.

The American Pie actress credits the pop star for reviving her film career and taking her out of a slump.

Coolidge starred in Ari's 2018 music video, Thank You Next, in which she played a version of herself from Legally Blonde, her character, Paulette.

She told Jimmy Fallon, it was the beginning of a lot of cool things that happened for me.

I was going through a dead zone, not much was going on.

Then Ariana did this imitation on your show, and you encouraged her, and then this ball got rolling.

Then she says her and Ari DM'd and Ari invited her to be in the music video.

And since then, she has appeared in several high-profile projects in the last few years, including Promising Young Woman, Swan Song, Single All the Way, plus, of course, The White Lotus.

You know what?

Like, when I think back to how I experienced the resurgence of Jennifer Coolidge, I do.

I really remember it starting with Ari, like when she had, makes me want a hot dog real bad.

Like, it really did happen that way.

And it was so cool, A, of Jennifer Coolidge to like totally acknowledge, because Jennifer Coolidge is extremely talented and she probably would have had a resurgence no matter what.

But for her to give all the credit to Ari was so cool.

And for Ari just to be like this cool, everything of the sort girl with like all this influence and power, like you just love to see it.

No, you love to see it.

And clearly happened in such an organic way.

I don't think Ari woke up one morning and said, I'm going to revive Jennifer Coolidge's career today.

But it's just like the power of Ari and also like that video was so, I mean, I'm sure, you know, she has a ton of videos, but that video was like a moment in time.

I remember where I was when I first saw it.

I was babysitting Theo at your house, and we watched the premiere together.

It was so where was I?

You were probably on tour because it was 2018.

I remember watching it in like a car or something.

That tracks.

Yeah.

So I think this is just really cool.

And I think we're all better off for having Jennifer Coolidge back in our lives.

A hundred percent.

Thank you, Ari.

Thank you, Jen.

And you know what this reminds me of?

I'm sure you didn't see it, but,

you know, in the David Dobrik Dobrik vlogs, he has like a couple signature songs that he loves.

And so, whenever he ends a vlog, he plays like Dancing Queen.

There's like three songs, and one of them is this song by Carolina Liar, Show Me What I'm Looking For.

Honestly, these sound like great

songs.

You know that?

Of course, I love that song.

So it's like an iconic old song.

And David Dobrik was on his podcast, and his friends surprised him with the lead singer of Carolina Liar and the guy was like getting so choked up.

He's like, you don't understand.

Like you have saved me.

I was living on the streets.

I was homeless.

And like, you know, with YouTube, like you get revenue.

And David's videos are so big.

And he uses this song in literally almost every single vlog that has like tens of twenties of thirties of millions of views.

So he's just like putting money in this and like really resurging his career.

And now he's like making content with him.

It was so.

It was such a nice moment.

And this is what the Jennifer Coolidge thing reminded me of because this just happened like a week ago oh my god that's beautiful i didn't realize that that's where the story was gonna go yeah and so he like performed the song and david was like so excited and then he was like no you don't understand like you've literally saved my life and david's like what are you talking about he's like i had no money like the music industry is just so tough and like i had this breakthrough song and then you know like shit happens and david just like continually pumping up this song and then getting other people to stream it and david has so many followers like right literally changed this guy's life oh my god when was this episode like a like a week and a half ago like his friends his friends got in contact with the lead singer and then they were like, David, we have a surprise for you.

And David was like, really shook.

Wow.

That's a great story.

Yeah, it was cool.

Not that that's the same circumstances as Jennifer Coolidge, but it just reminded me.

No, yeah.

Love a story like that.

Feel free to share it anytime.

Yeah.

So thank you, Ari.

Thank you, Jen.

Thank you, Jimmy Fallon.

He was a part of it too.

Like, if it weren't for the crazy reach of those annoying Jimmy Fallon videos on YouTube, we might not be here.

Yeah, but no one does those better than Ari.

Like that segment was made for her where she impersonates people.

Like, no, I've never seen anyone do it quite like her.

No, I've seen a lot of people actually do it, and it's painful and cringy.

No, and I think other people, like, have, like, three people that they can do who are, like, you know, easily doable.

Though I don't do impersonation, so I shouldn't judge.

But Ari, like, is

an impersonation queen.

An impersonation chameleon.

Yes, she can really do anyone.

And obviously, her best is Celine Dion, but.

So good.

So good.

Okay.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Oh my god, already?

Already, and it's some weird legal news.

It's the final story.

I won't do the whole thing because people have made their opinions known.

Their opinions known, and I'm here to please and entertain and not torture.

But and apparently that's what I was doing.

So it's good to know.

Our fifth and final story, Anna DeArma's fans are suing because she was cut out of the movie yesterday.

Not yesterday.

No, I don't know.

The movie yesterday.

The film titled The Film titled in quotes yesterday.

She was in the trailer for the movie and then wasn't in the actual movie.

And now two fans have filed a federal class action lawsuit on Friday alleging they were duped into renting the 2019 film.

You know what?

Because Anna appeared in the trailer.

You know what?

That's actually fair.

Like this is, there's so much false advertising like when it comes to TV and movies.

And that's fair.

You know what?

And maybe, you know, Brett, you know what this reminds me of?

Watching the trailer for Love Hard, thinking Heather McVann was going to be in it so much, and they didn't put her in enough.

And if I had rented it, maybe I would have sued, but I got her for free because I'm a Netflix subscriber.

So here's what's interesting.

So Anna DeArmas was meant to be in the movie.

She was going to play like the lead character when he goes to LA and is like singing.

He was going to like she was going to play the girl that he was like wooing there.

But then I guess the directors felt like it took away from the integrity of the main love story, which was between him and Lily James.

So they cut out Anna DeArmas completely.

But apparently there's been a suit like this in the past.

Someone in 2011 filed a complaint involving the film Drive because they said that the film,

the trailer made it appear that the film would be a high-speed action driving film, and she was not prepared for the film's slow-paced interpersonal drama punctuated with graphic violence.

I love this.

Right, okay, but she did not win because they rule that the trailer demonstrates

like everything that's in the trailer is in in the movie.

If they package it in a way, no, but see, but this is a precedent for this because everything in the trailer was not in the film.

Yeah, no, and I feel like that happens so often.

Like, you'll see a scene in the trailer, and then you're like, wait, where was that in the movie?

No, and you know what?

I'm actually really glad that there's some accountability happening.

Like, because we all go, it's actually psychotic how we like all go spend money and watch movies like that we know actually nothing about.

And more often than not, they're either not like the trailer at all or they're much worse.

Yeah.

So I wonder what's going to happen here because it is false advertising.

She is not in the film.

And especially because, like, she's, I mean, it does, I'm sure it doesn't even matter that, like, she's a big star and I wanted to see Adam to Armis and I didn't see her, even if it was someone renting the movie because they thought like their kid was in it and then the kid got cut.

But then, like, I'm sure it's the same thing.

Right.

It's the definition of false advertising.

Like, yeah.

And I, I'm no lawyer, but I do think these gals got a case and I'm fully, they have my full support.

Yeah, it's two guys, and I don't know how much they're suing for but they should at the very least get their rental feedback which was 3.99 3.99 on amazon prime a hundred percent and you know i think the whole concept that we like rent movies like on our or like we buy apps and everything and all these like amazon and apple you can't get refunds like for anything like what if i accidentally downloaded a 75 app one time you know

which did happen to me by the way

You accidentally downloaded it?

I accidentally downloaded an app that was $75.

And like, there's no line to call.

What app is $75?

It was this like cartoon drawing app I downloaded the wrong one literally don't ask okay but I swear to god it happened maybe it was like $69.99 I was like oh shit like I realized one second too late that I clicked the wrong one there's no customer service there's no live chat like what the fuck Apple does have live chat and I actually since we're talking about Apple I just want to bring something up that happened to me um because you guys have all been on this computer journey with me and last I left you I told you I was ordering the computer from the factory so it was gonna take a few weeks and but I was willing to be patient to get the computer that I wanted from Apple.

Computer of your dreams.

Apple, Mac, trillion-dollar company, the biggest stock in the country.

You know, I want the computer that I want, whatever.

I happened to be talking to Lauren Elizabeth, and she told me that she was getting a new computer too, and that she was getting it in two days from somewhere other than Apple.

And I was like, oh, shit, mine should be here soon, though.

Let me go check on it.

My order was canceled.

They never even told me that it was canceled.

They didn't send you an email?

Did not send me an email, an update, nothing.

All of my recent Apple orders now are canceled, canceled, canceled.

You can't get a computer.

You can't get a computer.

It's a supply chain, man.

It's so crazy, this trillion-dollar company.

Yeah.

Where are the trillions coming from?

If you can't, literally can't even pay to get a computer.

So, what'd you do?

You went to Costco.

So, I ordered a computer from Costco, which is where Lauren Elizabeth told me she was getting hers.

I don't even know that, but if I need a computer, I will go to Costco.

Yeah, if you need an Apple computer, go to Costco.

Make it make sense.

Make it make sense.

Make it make sense.

I don't know.

So, that's me.

Did you see the fifth story?

Oh, Anna Darmas.

Anna D'Armas.

Hopefully, we get an update, even if it's just the fee that they get paid back.

I hope.

Yeah, no, but they're also probably adding like emotional distress, legal.

And then if you see someone and you win, they have to pay your legal fees.

So, you know what?

I think this will be very interesting.

I look forward to a movie being made about this.

Yeah.

And you know what?

If I sat down to watch Anna DeArmas and she wasn't there, I would feel emotionally distressed.

I would.

Yeah, especially like, as we were just saying, you never know who impacts you.

And Anna DeArmas might have been one of those celebrities for one of these guys.

Yeah, exactly.

I think there's more to the story.

I hope they get the justice they so desperately deserve.

I think so, too.

And I think it sets a good precedent.

And maybe it will keep these trailer makers in line.

Yeah, no, and just like these overall marketing departments from just spewing lies.

Yeah, and what a butter for Anna DeArmas, like, to just be cut from this movie.

I mean, I think that happens.

all the time.

Yeah.

And this movie was like really before she popped off.

And it was bad.

And it was atrocious and she should be glad that she's not affiliated with it.

She was saved.

She was saved, but I'm sure at the time she's like a budding actress.

She's like in this movie that's, you know, Beatles.

It's going to be everywhere.

Of course.

Corey James.

And she gets the axe.

Yeah.

Who even knew that she went through that?

No.

And now I have so much like sympathy in my heart for all Anna DeArmos has been through.

It must be so hard to be a Hollywood actress.

I'm just crying on the inside.

Yeah.

I really like her.

I think she's a great actress.

I've only seen her in

Knives Out.

So good.

So good.

Knives Out 2 is coming soon.

Is it?

Yeah, they're working on it.

So is White Lotus 2.

And it's, did you see it's setting this to Italy?

Yeah.

And Jennifer Coolidge will return.

But

that means that the crew from Hawaii won't be in it?

No, except Jennifer Coolidge.

I was kind of looking forward to like the stability of having the same people.

I mean, I guess Armand lost his job a million times over it.

Right.

But, you know, like having the same setting and just like bringing in, it feels like a reality show.

Yeah, but it's not.

So it's just going to be a whole different show.

Yeah.

Cool.

All right.

Let's speak of shows, dive into the TV recap where we're going to start with Salt Lake City.

I'm brought to you by Third Love.

Third Love does comfort and so.

can you.

Their bras, underwear, activewear, and feel good all-day wear are designed to hug better, hold stronger, and support longer.

Third Love obsesses over each stitch so you never have to think about how something feels, looks, or wears.

And so you can celebrate Valentine's Day with the Lux Intimate Gift Set and Ultra Soft Loungewear that hug better, support longer, and love you right back.

So I've been wearing Third Love bras like since I found out about the company and they were like a life-changing brand for me.

And then finding out that they made pajamas, which is obviously like a category that's very near and dear to my heart, was just very exciting.

And the pajamas are...

literally just as good as the bra.

They fit well.

They're like very supportive at night.

They're breathable.

I think the perfect pajama is a a very specific formula.

And Third Love has has nailed it.

And they've also nailed just bras in general, especially when it comes to sizing.

They make it really easy to find a bra that actually fits with their

fits with the fitting room quiz is what you take.

That's 20% off at thirdlove.com/slash toast.

Great.

Okay, let's talk about Salt Lake City.

It was literally so infuriating.

Okay.

So we're in Zion

and everyone's being unreasonable.

And I don't really understand how we went from, you know, this major news story about Jen Shaw and the fraudulence and the arrest on camera to literally villainizing Meredith Marks.

I don't know how we got here, but I do know that like everyone is the worst.

Whitney has overnight become the worst.

Jenny, I've seriously in my life never met a bigger loser.

Like, and I honestly, she probably won't return to the show after what happened to her on social media this week.

I heard she's filming.

Oh, really?

Mm-hmm.

Well, I can't stand her.

Like, she, every time she says something, she thinks she's doing something and somebody has to tell her she's doing nothing.

It's giving nothing.

No, and she's constantly playing a bad game of telephone, like getting information and then telling it to someone else, but like misrepresenting the

heart of the matter.

Like the thing about the private investigator was cleared up in two fucking seconds and it was just infuriating.

I'm actually so glad.

I'm so glad that we didn't recap last week because it was just last week's episode, which I watched last night was like me too.

A cluster fuck.

Every like I was after that episode, I was going to be like, how do we have a show anymore?

These women can't even like they can't focus on one thing.

Like they can't focus on Jen.

They can't focus on Mary.

They're like every little feeling that bothers them, they have to make into like a full-fledged fight because they think that it'll make the show better but we're getting so off course and you know how I know they're doing a bad job when I think after last night the person who came out on top looking the best was Jen Shaw

after last well yeah after last night um first of all I agree I don't even know where I stand I'm so perpetually confused by the show and I think Meredith is who I root for the most because I think she

has the most sense and also behaves in a way that's like less like a reality TV star and more just like, I'm a person and you fucked with my family.

Fuck off.

I don't care the fact that we're filming a show, like that just is never going to be forgiven.

Sure, we can like get in the hot tub and have a drink, but I will never forget what you did.

And I feel like that's a very real human response as opposed to like Lisa Barlow, who is a political housewife.

Like she will say and so fraudulent, but like, I also kind of love her, but she will say and do anything to keep being on the, to be relevant, to be on the show.

But like that's that's what drives her.

So, and then that's fine by me.

But it's actually like, Jackie, I cannot listen to one more conversation of like theorizing why Meredith wasn't on the Sprinter van.

Like, I don't understand why it's so difficult for all these women who are all mothers to understand why Meredith Marks just decided to take her own car as opposed to spending six hours in a van with Jensha after all.

And then we found out that the, she hired a private investigator and the private investigator surmise that there's a 90% chance the threats that the death threats that are going to Meredith's house and to Meredith's family are coming from Jensha.

So after we know all of that, they still don't understand why she didn't get in the van and they're pressing it so hard every meal.

They don't stop, even though she's giving them the answer.

If only they pressed Jensha like slightly about some of the accusations, a percentage of what they push on Meredith for the reason she wasn't in the van, which is not hard to understand.

No, and even taking Jen out of it, like these girls are fucking annoying.

Like, it's just who wants to be on a van with them for six hours who wants to be in a van with anyone for six hours when meredith had the option the first time she fly she flew private i think and when so mary flew private and then the second time they just flew why would anyone subject themselves to the van like the being in the van is really not a part of the job like being on the trip is a part of job i'm surprised that meredith even stayed past the first night like she is being i would have liked but sometimes like you need personal space and boundaries and it's like if i'm gonna be trapped in a house with all of you you people who are talking like just the most random shit about me for three days, you know what?

I need mentally to prepare to get there.

And that includes not riding in the van.

Nothing has ever made more sense than that to me.

And that the fact that they can't get over it is so annoying.

Also, like everyone was just annoyingly drunk at the dinner.

And so not making a lot of time.

Oh my God.

Oh my God.

It's infuriating.

You know what?

Lisa Barlow was right about one thing.

Whitney Heather, bad weather.

The two of them together are atrocious, literally.

And they think they're so funny and quirky and smart and right about everything and that like everything they do is going to go viral.

I've never found two housewives together more annoying in my life.

I agree.

And I've never went from liking them so much to literally can't even listening to them.

They had a good first season.

It's Leah McSweeney syndrome.

And now they think they can do no wrong.

When they were laying in the bed, like trying to avoid Meredith,

like.

No, I can't.

Like, and Meredith was totally right.

And Lisa Barlow's like kind of the queen of like going to people's rooms at night night and like changing things.

Yeah, because I mean I

understand the move.

It's like first of all, she participated in an unsavory conversation about someone that she considers a friend.

She has a pit about it.

This is at the me giving her the benefit of the doubt.

She has a pit about it and she wants to go and unburden herself.

And it's really like more so for her than for the other person.

Like she feels guilty and she needs to share.

Others might think, such as Whitney, that she is going and, you know, you know, showing herself in a good light, admitting to her sins and throwing throwing everyone else under the bus.

I think it's a mixture of both.

I think it's a mixture of both too.

I just felt like the whole episode, like everyone was being stupid.

And honestly, there was just so many cringy moments, mostly coming from Jenny.

Like anytime she tries to stand up and like say something in someone's face, she like just doesn't.

She doesn't do it just like that.

It's a flop.

It's a flop.

And like, she's just consistently on the wrong side of history, like consistently.

And I think she's just trying to gauge.

And like, why is she having so many private conversations with Jen Shaw?

She doesn't even know her.

I have no idea.

And I think it must be hard to be a new housewife and come onto this scene because the lines are so blurred of like who's friends with who, who's loyal to who.

Like you would have thought that like if Jenny's friends with Lisa, that means Jenny's friends with Meredith.

But no, because Lisa and Meredith can barely stand each other.

I don't know where they stand now.

To me, that friendship like is feels like a loss.

Whenever anyone comes on the show, Meredith.

Whenever anyone comes on the show and they're friends for, say, minimum five years, like have been actual friends before this and the show like finds a way to come between them

or they, they allow the show to come between them.

It does make me sad, and so,

and I think that the two of them, I would like to see them get back to being, like, good friends who have each other's backs.

Me too.

But, like, I don't know how honestly Meredith could, like, live with herself if she let Lisa back into her home after Lisa, like, so weirdly out of nowhere, became best friends with Jen Shaw.

The second Jen Shaw started saying homophobic things about Meredith's son.

Like, I don't know, Meredith doesn't seem like the type of girl who can get over that.

Right.

And then next week,

what she says about about fucking half of New York.

Right.

Meredith.

Meredith doesn't forget.

No, and I wouldn't either.

And it's annoying because I agree with you.

I really want to like Lisa.

And for me, I start to like her more when she's like a good friend to Meredith.

And it's like she's becoming a worst friend every episode.

Yeah, agreed.

And did you watch Watch What Happens Live last night?

No.

Lisa was on, and I think like things between her and Meredith are strained, but I do feel like she's trying to get back on Meredith's good side because all of the answers that she gave to stuff were like put Meredith in as like a flattering light.

Light.

Well, she's also, since the show has started airing, she's been like very vocal on Watch Trappens Live and just like podcasts and stuff that she's like anti-genshaw.

She can't be friends with someone who like committed these crimes, but she's like acting very differently on the show.

She's just so fraudulent.

Like I will never believe, she'll say the sky is blue.

I'm like, but, but it's not.

Yeah, I just, I'm like, but what motivates you to say that?

Where are you coming from?

And she like,

what are you getting out of this?

And she says all the time she hates how how everyone thinks she's like so calculating and manipulative.

And she's like, really just like living her life, which I want to believe, but like I've been, I've been misled.

Yeah.

And then these people just like talk in circles around each other to the point that like I really don't care.

But like when at one point Jen said like that she really believes that Mary and Meredith in some way are connected to the FBI showing up at Beauty Lab.

Like

is the most nonsensical thing I've ever heard in my life.

And I can't believe that them spending my time watching people on television who could believe that deliberate.

Who could believe something like that?

And even though we go in the reunion, and Andy doesn't immediately point out how moronic that is, that like random citizens don't get nine-year investigations being put, like if it's not squashed, like I will be so annoyed if they treat it like an actual possibility.

Like, yes, you can call a tip-in on someone, but

it's just so stupid.

Like, I can't, I can't.

The show is actually making me so frustrated.

Yeah, no, it, it, it is.

We've lost sight of, we've lost the thought.

And I was just like,

how, how, how has this happened?

It was like, it's so weird to me.

It was nice to see, but it's also so weird that they, like, one, the night before, they could not even sit around a table and have a conversation.

And then the next night, like, they are having the time of their lives.

Psychiopathic.

I don't, I don't get it.

I'm glad that they were able to mend fences and have a good time, but how can, how is that possible?

Sociopathic.

It's crazy.

I have no idea.

That was one of the big, that always happens on trips.

You get a rough start, you get the fight out, and then like everyone comes together.

But like, that was one of the biggest leaps I've ever seen.

Yeah, it was nuts.

It was not, it was unnatural.

Yeah.

So yeah, like it's just chaos every episode.

And I'm actually not enjoying it, which is annoying because this is supposed to be like the benchmark season of the franchise that'll give it like, you know, we'll be talking about this.

We will not be talking, like, like, these women have dropped the ball so hard.

They're not doing this storyline any justice.

And I can't, period.

Period.

Um, and then I finished watching Ted Lasso, which was so good.

And yes, it still is this, like, happy, fun, go-lucky show, but like, there was some drama.

And when I, so

when I, spoiler alert,

when I found out when Trent Krim, who I love, The Independent, told Ted Lasso that, you know, Nate was his source, I like was gagged.

Like, I was never been so shocked in my whole life.

And then I was able to kind of figure out that, like, he was definitely going to be the coach for Rupert's team.

So, that like end thing didn't really surprise me.

But the whole thing, that's what I was saying when I was recapped it.

I was like, the last second, like, even though it's not a cliffhanger-y show at all, like, it totally shocked me.

I thought the coach was going to turn around.

It's like this coach with gray hair.

So, I thought he was going to turn around and have a gray, like, just be a random guy with a gray mustache and be like fake Fed fasso.

Right.

And when it was Nate,

I was shook to the core.

I was shook to my core, but I had predicted it.

Okay.

I had not predicted Nate becoming, like, I knew he was like, you know, acting out, blah, blah, blah.

And I thought like Ted, you know, was going to give him one of his pep talks and put him back in his place.

I did not expect this villain origin story from Nate, but you know what?

I really kind of appreciated like.

how realistic like that's how people become monsters like you give them one ounce of kindness and they become monsters like it was just very accurate, in my opinion.

It was so sad to watch.

I don't think that happens all the time, but it can happen.

And

now looking back, it's like all the signs were there and it started very slowly.

And even just the way he treated the guy who replaced him was that's how you know.

He's giving Tom moms games.

Yes, but then...

like even the spitting on the mirror is like his power

his power pose like the first time i saw it i was like ew someone has to clean that up and then it just became like extremely disrespectful when he would do it, like wherever he was.

And

it was just,

it was shocking to see.

Yeah.

So like, I like that the show is kind of taking this turn now, but everyone's like evolving.

I love that Roy Kent came back to coach and Keele is starting her own PR firm and Sam and Rebecca.

That was shocking.

When he was, okay, when she was like texting that guy on banter and like she didn't know who he was, but obviously it was going to be someone we knew.

Like, obviously, I thought it was Ted.

Oh, my God.

Well, first of all, you know that.

So a few weeks ago, after I watched the movie Loveheart, when I said that there should be a dating app that's no pictures, and someone's people said that's a storyline on Ted Lasso.

So I was really excited to see how it played out.

In my version of the app, you do have names and like

you also can have like talk about your professionals.

Yeah, it's just no photos, not everything else, because then you get into a situation like that.

With an ex-murderer.

no, or like with someone that works for you and it's inappropriate.

So I did not think that they were going to go through with the relationship, like because it really is crossing a lot of lines.

But, you know, I want love for Sam and I want love for Rebecca.

And if they found it with each other, then that works.

And I think it just is proof that we need an app like this.

A hundred percent.

Yeah.

So all in all, I really enjoyed the show.

There were two, and you were telling me this, there were two episodes where like me and Ben, I would have finished the whole show on Saturday night, but I watched two such atrocious episodes in a row.

Me and Ben were falling asleep.

The first episode, which was like the, what's this coach's name?

Beard?

Beard.

Beard.

The beard origin story, like where he like had that terrible night.

And I don't know why they were like being really cryptic.

Like I thought he was gonna die.

Did you?

No, I don't remember what I thought.

Because he was like so feclimped when he said goodbye to Ted at the stadium after losing to Man City.

And he was like kind of like depressed and like all this bad stuff kept happening to him.

I'm like, oh no, is he gonna do something like bad?

I don't know.

And then nothing happened.

So I was like, what the fuck was the point of this episode?

The point of the episode was apparently they turned in 10 episodes to Apple TV and Apple TV said we need 12.

So they stuck in two evergreen episodes, the beard night

and this and the funeral, which both of them, if you take out, don't change the storyline at all.

I wish someone had told me that.

I would have skipped them.

Like they were so bad.

Yeah, they were, they were real, especially the beard one.

Especially the beard one.

Yes.

But the Christmas episode, I don't know if that's season season one or season two, was probably my favorite like Christmas holiday episode of a TV show in a really long time.

Not only was it like giving you all the holiday feels, like so sweet.

The storyline about Roy Kent's niece who had bad breath, I swear to God, like I actually, me and them, we could not breathe.

Like we had laughed so hard, we rewinded a hundred times that obviously that iconic scene, I think you might be dying.

So good, like just pure comedy genius.

I enjoyed it so much.

Yeah, that is so funny.

But anyways, so I was saying, like, I do feel like, you know, the show is very like light and happy-go-lucky, but there are like darker elements at play.

And I don't know if it's just like our culture has a really

strange relationship to alcohol, but it does feel like everyone on the show has a drinking problem.

Yes.

And I don't know if they're going to address it, or that's just like how we approach drinking these days.

Or it's like drinking in British culture because like the pubs and everything.

Yeah.

But I think it's it's all of us like I don't think it's a a British thing like Ted they just every time there's like something stressful they're just like pounding beers and like it's it's copious amounts of alcohol and and things in shows like everything is placed like for a reason like every number of drinks like everything is intentional so I do feel like it's leading us to like someone here has a drinking like or but I also think that there's more than one every time Rebecca takes a sip of champagne she downs the whole glass in one sip right no and I just that's not like healthy behavior so I feel like there's more forces working at play here.

I had thought in the beginning that, like, they're always showing Ted with alcohol.

Like, Ted might struggle with alcohol down the line.

Yeah, I think so too,

especially when he's like going through it.

That's what he turns to, which I think a lot of people, you know, when you're having a hard day or a rough time, like, yeah, I'm going to take the edge off.

But it seems more pointed than that on the show.

And I feel like that's an intentional move.

Yeah.

So thank you for the recommendation.

I very much enjoyed it.

I'm so glad to hear it.

When have I ever led you astray?

Um, that show on Acorn, wrong, a place to call home.

A place to call home.

If you're looking for a new show that's just gonna sweep you off your feet, the magic of love, family, and everything community of the sort, download, download Acorn TV.

Wait, you guys, I actually have a code for you from the Redheads, and I'm gonna share it.

One month free of Acorn.

Okay, live your life.

This is not an ad for this show, but go to

acorn.tv and use code book to get your first 30 days free and binge watch the show a place to call home

Guys, this wasn't even like a staged ad.

It will stick with you forever.

Um, the last thing I'm gonna do

was last night's YouTube channel.

Forever.

Oh, last night.

Okay, what's going on with the kids, penis?

Okay, honestly, like, maybe this is a hot take.

I thought it was a really boring episode, even though, like, it had this moment in it that,

like, we saw on the trailer a few weeks ago when people like the sound has been going viral on TikTok and they're just like waiting for the moment where Cassie says, I have never, ever been happier.

And like we got it and like it was just like, it was a daydream.

Like she didn't actually say that, you know, she just wished that she did, you know?

Oh.

So it was like kind of a boring episode, but we did get like a Cal Jacobs origin story, which obviously made him extremely sympathetic because you get this romance of like him and his best friend growing up who are both closeted.

And then they have this like one night where they realize like they're both like in love with each other and it's like so cute.

Then the next morning he finds out his girlfriend's pregnant and that girlfriend is actually his wife right now.

So like it just we never got to see the Cal and Derek story and like we know why he's so evil.

Not that it justifies any of his behavior, but it was an interesting, I like, I liked going back in time to that little era of Cal and Derek, a ship.

But back in like modern the present really nothing happened.

And there was like this weird editing slice of like Lexi's play.

I wasn't on board with it.

Like, I don't know.

I just, maybe I'm spoiled because I binged it all at once.

So, I'm used to like things happening.

And this is like two episodes in a row where, like, I really wouldn't say anything happened.

I think that's what's happening: is you binge a show, and then you have to get used to watching it episodically, and it changes things, right?

Because, like, I can tell you, you know, all of season one, like all the things that happened.

And now I'm just like, what the hell has even happened?

Like, what really happened this week?

You know, Kat is, you know, having a hard time with her boyfriend.

Nate brought Maddie flowers instead of Cassie.

The scenes of Cassie guashaing and ice rolling and getting up at 4 a.m.

to get ready for school because she wants to cute for Nate.

Like,

that was funny.

And she, like, keeps showing up, Jackie, and like more and more crazy looks that, like, literally by the end of the week, she looks like the...

The school play is Oklahoma.

And she, like, teased her hair so much they thought that she was auditioning for the play.

Oh, that's funny.

But yeah, nothing, really, nothing happened.

So, like, except Rue, once again, just being

dumb.

Like, so I told you, you know, she's struggling with addiction and like she was in

recovery.

Of course, she's not anymore.

And so not only is she, like, lying to everyone around her about being in recovery, she's now decided to start selling drugs, which is just obviously a dangerous, dumb thing to do.

So, because she knows, like, it'll get her access to drugs, she'll get herself free drugs, and then she'll like money for drugs.

So, I think in her head it makes a lot of sense and of course you know she's an addict so that's her only focus at the moment but she's just not being wise you know there's so much violence in euphoria and it's all around the drugs and she's next

whoa that's a lot for the campers it's a lot for the campers and it really was not like a great episode so i'm gonna need something to happen like now okay or you could batch save them and batch them i can't because if i say tick tock i get so many spoilers so like last night i was being such a loser like literally watching it 9.01.

Oh, wow, that's losery.

But are you not able to like mute?

You should be able to mute

topics on TikTok.

You should.

That's actually a really good idea, but they don't do that.

Okay, free idea, TikTok.

Once again, here at the Morning Toast, just giving out free billion dollars.

I heard my TikTok is making a resurgence across the web.

I went on your TikTok like on Friday and just watched every single one of your old videos.

You were so good.

Like, and your apartment has really good light, so you were just like making premium.

I mean, I said that you should get back on TikTok.

tock i would enjoy that so much but you won't but it's you need a hobby

it was a moment in time okay and you know people are loving it i feel like if you have the app and went on and logged in like you would see people are still commenting like living for the the content that's so sweet um

yeah it's hard to separate the like creating on TikTok from scrolling on TikTok.

And I think the scrolling on TikTok is what is really toxic and takes up like all of your time in your brain cells.

And

that's what I'm trying to avoid.

But you also can't create on TikTok without scrolling and seeing what the trends are.

And then you just like fall down the rabbit hole.

So it's all, it's all

I couldn't just like hop on there unless I was just posting like videos from AC's diary,

which works for us.

Which also works.

Maybe she'll come back, but right now her phone has been confiscated because she's been spending too much time on it.

Yeah.

AC is grounded in a big way.

And so am I, because that's the end of our show.

Yes.
