S5 Ep3: Miley Cyrus, WTF Did You Do?: Wednesday, January 5th, 2022

Good morning, Millennials.

Welcome back to the morning toast.

Happy Wednesday.

Happy Hump Day.

Happy second day on the new interface.

Hey, Claude, how are you doing?

Hello, Jacqueline.

I am doing great.

It is hump day.

I am,

I have already humped someone I love.

So I'm just, I don't know, I'm kicking off the day in a really positive headspace.

We absolutely love to hear that.

And also, we are so excited because we are recording today's episode still remote, but there is a video component.

So if you have been waiting for the YouTube to come back, head over there if you're listening as a podcast.

And for the YouTube listeners, we're sorry, we've missed you too.

And now you can see like Brew in the background with heating pad.

You can really, you can see these beautiful faces, even though mine.

The pimples, the pores, the puff, the bloat.

The puff, the bloat.

That's

very real to me today.

Yeah, I didn't have time to gua shaw or ice roll my face.

So you're just getting the full pizza face today.

I am beyond ice rolling.

You know, this is just who I am now.

No, that's an important thing.

Like I feel like for a long time I was like gua shaing every morning.

Like,

and I definitely saw some lifting, some sculpting, but at the end of the day, this is who I am.

This is my face.

It is round.

And I must learn to love the things I cannot change or I will not change.

Yeah, I agree.

But still, you know, sometimes it's nice to feel like you're doing something for thyself.

Productive.

Well, we're doing something productive because we have a fabulous show.

You know, yesterday's episode was low-key, like a banger.

It was so funny.

I actually went back and listened to it as a podcast, which I don't really do.

Sometimes I'll go back and watch YouTube.

But Bobble, we were just, we were killing it.

I mean, justice for Bobble, because he's getting cheated on left and right.

Yesterday's episode was really funny.

And I'm really excited for today's.

We have a lot to talk about.

We have to recap Vanderpump rules.

I had such a busy day yesterday finishing up the book book for the Redheads, and then we recorded the episode of The Redheads last night, so that will be up tomorrow for the community.

And I also think, like, January is a great month for the Redheads community in general.

A lot of people are resolute to read more and they want to jump in with a snitch's choice.

So the episode was really funny.

It was...

Actually, way more polarizing than I thought it was going to be.

I thought we were all just going to be like, yay, cute snitch's choice.

But there was dissension.

Scandal amongst the redheads?

Scandal.

It hasn't been that heated since Clara and the Sun, honestly.

Ooh, a dark time for the community.

If you know, you know.

So that'll be up tomorrow, and it's always a good time recording with the girls.

I finished

Emily and Paris.

So just remind me to touch on that in the TV recap segment because I have thoughts and they are overwhelmingly negative, which is tough for me because you know I'm starting out this year on like a positive foot.

I'm getting my hair cut today.

New year, new me.

And Emily is just bringing like that negativity, that heaviness, that darkness that I was consumed by in 2021.

It's bringing it straight into 2022.

It's hard to be positive while also being factual.

And it's hard to be positive when you're watching Emily in Paris, period.

Yeah.

No, like

there's like something about positivity that requires a bit of delusion.

Jackie.

I couldn't have phrased the sentence any more perfectly.

Okay, then we'll leave it at that.

And that's just something for you guys to chew on.

Not even delusion.

Borderline, like ignorance.

Willfully ignoring like what's going on.

Like, look around.

Why would you be positive?

Right.

Okay, cool.

I'm glad that, you know, we have something to think about today.

I feel like we're asking in the new year, like in these three episodes, we're really asking some big questions.

Like, what's in a name?

You know?

What is in a name?

A lot.

There's a lot in a name.

So true.

So how was your night otherwise without Emily ruining it?

It was good.

Oh my God.

You know, like Ben

has an obsession with these breathe right strips.

No, but okay.

Okay, so like a couple months ago, he started snoring really bad and it was waking me up like at all parts of the night.

So I'm like, you have to do something about it.

So we went to Dwayne Reed and he bought these strips that he puts on his nose.

He wears them around the house like at noon.

Like it's not even just for sleeping.

He loves them.

They're a fashion statement.

They're a fashion statement.

He got a PR package from the brand and like for him, like that's like you getting a Birken.

Like he hit peak, peak influencing.

And I guess, like, last night was the first night in a really long time that he forgot to put one on before bed.

I was up all night, like, shoving him, turning him to his side.

So, I'm like fucking cranky this morning.

And I like yelled.

Like, I know snoring is out of people's control.

Like, I'm how, how, how can you be mad at someone for like a bodily function?

But I found a way.

And I was so like, I'm like a little cranky.

Like, if you're feeling, if you're sensing that, blame Ben.

Okay, I will definitely blame Ben.

And even though snoring, you know, I guess technically is not a person's fault, it feels like it is.

And it also feels like a testimonial attack.

And they do say, like, if you sleep on your side, you won't snore.

So, I mean, like, right now, I have to sleep on my side.

And like, of course, I would love to sleep on my back, but I'm like, nope, sleep on your side.

Ben doesn't, it's clear that he's not, you know, pushing himself to sleep on his side as well.

I think there's something borderline sociopathic about sleeping on your back.

Like, it's insane.

Really?

How do I have sleep?

Side and belly.

Okay.

Yeah.

I miss sleeping on my belly so much.

Especially when you got a heating pad under there.

So good.

So good.

But sleep, I, I mean, I have to sleep on my side now, and I feel like after I'm pregnant, I'm never going to do it again.

It's like really annoying to have to do all the time.

Yeah, belly is like my number one choice, but I think there's just something really creepy about people whose like number one goat way of sleeping is on their back.

And I think it's mostly men and and I think it's really fucking crazy.

Okay, it's not my number one preferred method of sleeping, but I do enjoy it.

It's like probably top four positions.

Well, there are only four positions.

So you see those like charts that are like

all the different ways that you could sleep.

And I think my favorite way to sleep is like on my side, but like on my belly too.

You know?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Which I can't do, which I can't do right now either.

But I do like a back moment sometimes.

No, for me, like the number one way is belly, right leg up, like bent knee, hands under the pillow.

Damn.

You know what I've noticed recently?

I sleep with so much tension.

Like I grip my pillows so much.

And obviously, like my jaw is always like clenched shut.

And I need, I've been trying to consciously like relax, but I literally don't know how to relax.

And like my shoulders in general are always at my ears.

What is that?

No, and I'll be like trying to fall asleep.

And I'm like, hmm, I wonder why I can't fall asleep.

Maybe it's like then you realize how much tension you're clenching in your jaw.

Like I'm like, oh my God, I can't believe I have any teeth left.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, that's something I'm trying to be more mindful of in the new year.

We are like turning this into like a wellness podcast.

We're going to have to switch categories soon at the rate we're going.

Literally.

Well, it's fine because comedy is so cutthroat.

I would love to be number one in a different category rather than number eight in comedy.

No, we are in such a competitive podcast chart category.

And do you know that we actually, we usually usually peak at about eight or seven?

Yesterday we made it to six.

The episode made it to six, yeah.

But that's also because it was podcast only.

Yes, and it was like our first episode back.

It was the one from Monday.

So but I do wonder if the YouTube listeners are just boycotting or if they're moving to the podcast.

Do let us know.

Do let us know.

Let us know in the comments on today's YouTube episode because if everything goes according to plan, there should be a YouTube episode.

Ay.

A.

Put on makeup for the first time since New Year's.

Ay.

Yeah, I put on makeup.

I'm looking cute.

And I'm like, ready.

I'm ready to change lives today with this episode.

Okay, let's do our best.

I don't know if the stories are necessarily life-changing, but you know, they are the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast.

And today's episode is brought to you by Jersey Shore Family Vacation.

Are you ready to fist pump into the new year?

I am.

Tomorrow, the Jersey Shore family is back on MTV with an all-new season of Jersey Shore Family Vacation.

The situations are learning what it means to be new parents, but their little one isn't the only meatball serving up surprises because Snookie is back for good.

Queen, the new year is bringing lots of new beginnings and some relationships are being put to the test.

When Fist Pump comes to shove, will Polly D and Nikki take things to the next level?

Can Angelina and Chris finally make their marriage work?

One thing's for sure, the season is going to be unforgettable.

So don't miss the new season of Jersey Shore Family Vacation.

First story, some drama.

Kim Kardashian unfollows Miley Cyrus on Instagram after a Pete Davidson New Year's Eve special.

So Kim has seemingly unfollowed Miley on Instagram following the New Year's Eve special that we, you know, glowed about that we loved with Pete Davidson.

A Miley Cyrus fan account noted that Kardashian was following the Wrecking Ball Artist's Instagram account on December 10th, the same day Page 6 reported that Miley went to Davidson's condo after their tonight show appearance.

But as of Tuesday, the Skims founder was no longer listed as one of her followers.

The move could signal some three-way drama among Kim, Miley, and Pete after the two of them co-hosted a New Year's Eve special in Miami on Friday.

So

this is really juicy.

Yes.

It's so juicy.

And this is a lot to break down, unpack.

It's layered.

Yeah, no, but it's also very real.

Like sometimes you see like unfollowed drama, and I'm like, this is another murder.

But like, this is so real.

And I have to be honest, when I was watching the New Year's special, I was thinking like, if I'm Kim and this is my new man's and we, everybody knows that we're together, I would have been like a little miffed at Miley.

She was kind of laying it on thick.

And

when they were doing the press before Jimmy Fallon, like that she was kind of like doing that still.

So like if I was the new girlfriend, I would be annoyed.

Yes.

Okay.

So I would totally agree.

I think there's always like unfollowing drama and it's never verified whether like, you know, Kim actually followed Miley to begin with.

But this is totally fact-based.

Like this is a database question.

Like it is totally real.

And I have heard a few things of like Page 6 was basically saying essentially what you said, just like the inappropriate nature of a lot of, you know, the comments during press and during the actual live show.

Dumois had a blind that was pretty clearly about the situation, basically saying Kim found inappropriate pictures, um,

including about around Miley on Pete's phone.

I don't really know if that's true.

Kim doesn't seem like the type of gal who like goes through her boyfriend's phone.

Like she has four kids, a billion dollar business, like she's busy and she's like studying for law school.

so i don't really know if i believe that i personally don't believe that me neither but i don't think it's i think there's more to it than you know just miley acting inappropriately because at the end of the day like you have to know who you're dating that's like pete's shtick you know he's like this single bachelor guy it's miley shtick i don't know i think there's more to the story that we don't know perhaps and maybe it's something like tech like maybe like pete came home and was like oh my god she's like texting me whatever right right i don't know but just based on what we do know, I could see how this led towards like, there's drama and I'm unfollowing her.

And like, this is not how you act around someone else's man.

Yeah.

No, and to be honest, like, I'm a little annoyed because I just feel like, I don't know, I don't really want Kim like involved in this.

Like, she's a little bit better than like stupid scandals like this.

I don't think it's a scandal.

Like, she was, this girl's like,

she feels like she's coming onto her man when everybody knows that they're dating.

And I don't want to follow follow you anymore.

I don't want to see your face on my feed.

I feel that.

By the way, there also could be something to, you know, Kim followed Miley for this special, like, because she was working with her man, and now the special's over and Kim just didn't feel the need to keep following her.

That's also an option.

How many people does Kim follow currently?

I think around 150, but let me check.

Oh, that's hardy.

That's a hardy amount.

Yeah, it's not like 10.

Yeah, it's not like 10, and I'm only following the most relevant people week to week.

Right.

Right now, she's following exactly 150.

Okay.

Yeah.

So this is very real.

And Miley pissed off Kim.

Yeah.

And we just need to get down to the bottom of like what was the thing that pissed Kim off.

Because I feel like it takes a lot to piss Kim off.

She's very tough.

I agree.

And I don't think it was only just like Jimmy Fallon and the New Year special because that's sort of

speculative.

Yeah, and it's part of the job.

There was definitely other stuff, but I'm just saying, like, even just seeing that stuff, if that was my man, I would be annoyed with this girl.

Yeah, I definitely think the weirdest thing Miley did during the press was that cover, like it should have been me.

Yeah, that's what this page six article references.

That she like serenaded him on the tonight show, saying it should have been me.

And also, like, if Kim, if Pete wasn't dating Kim right now, and these two were doing press and hosting New Year's Eve together, I would be like, oh my god, they need to date.

There would be a lot of speculation as to whether they hooked up, are they dating?

Like, because they actually, now that I think about it, like, are very well matched in just their vibes, right?

So everything to me here just like adds up in terms of why this would annoy someone's girlfriend.

You know, it's a recipe for disaster.

But Kim and Pete are going strong.

They're going to the Bahamas together.

And I look forward, you know, to hopefully some photos and some content.

Something.

Like a picture, an Instagram story, like anything.

But even just knowing that they're going on vacation together, it's like another step towards the biggest ship you've ever seen.

It's another step towards stepdad Pete Davidson.

Oh, that's kind of scary.

Frightening.

Okay, well, our next story is related.

Kanye West and Julia Fox see Slave Play and hit Carbone on their first New York City date.

So Kanye is out there as well.

He and Julia Fox took in a Broadway show with a group of friends on Tuesday before decamping to Carbone for dinner.

Okay, can I say something like hella controversial?

Okay.

Sure.

When it comes to like, you know, the Kim and Kanye stuff, when I'm reading a story about, you know, Kanye, you know, lusting after Kim, I'm, you know, bright-eyed, bushy-tailed.

When I'm reading something about who Kim is dating, I'm like, oh my God, give me more.

When I'm reading something about like who Kanye is dating, and maybe it's because he doesn't date anyone interesting, like I literally don't care.

You know what?

I feel the exact same way.

I almost didn't even pick this as a story, but then I was like, I had to look at myself and be like, why wouldn't I care who Kanye is dating when I care so much about him?

I care about Kim.

I care about their future, you know, everything else that he does.

And he's selections.

Like, it's just like, who is this?

Agreed, who is this?

And also, like, when he was dating Irena Shake, we were interested.

Yes, because she's an interesting person.

But when he dates, like, you know, just models,

yeah, maybe like fashion girls who are low-key,

it's not Pete Davidson.

Yeah, it's just not giving me like the joie de viv I usually have for stories like this.

Yeah, no, I felt the the same way, but I did, I felt the need to look inward and be like, of course, I should care that Kanye is seeing someone because it's part of a larger story, a story that I'm very invested in.

Right, correct.

So here we are.

Continue.

Give me the details.

It was the couple's first date night in New York where, oh, she's in from Uncut Gems.

She's an actress when she's based in New York.

Following a few evenings out in Miami, an eyewitness also told Page Six that Wes managed to stay off his phone for the entirety of the play, unlike in 2018 when he was busted for texting through the share show.

That's funny.

Like it's so rude, but it's a long time to be off your phone.

Like I sympathize.

Are you someone who would be on your phone in a Broadway show?

No, I'm someone if I'm not enjoying the show and I feel the need to like really be on my phone, I'll take like a long walk to the toilet, like sit on the toilet, catch up on what's going on and then go back.

If I'm being honest.

But it's so rude.

Like when I see people on their phones in my show, like I actually, I was at a comedy club in Chicago and like someone was fully like making a phone call, like a dentist's appointment right in front of me.

Like, that's, I know how rude it is.

So, I would never like fully be like blatantly rude on my phone.

But, you know, if I'm not enjoying myself, I will excuse myself.

I think that's fine.

I think that's fine.

Also, for celebrities, it's like one, everyone's watching you, and two, like, you're typically in a really good seat.

So, the actors could probably see you.

And that's even ruder.

Most likely gifted those tickets for free but like if you are in the balcony perhaps a few rows back you know you have a little privacy as a person and you get a text message you could maybe check it well actually you'd be surprised like with theater lights you actually really can't see the first few rows in front of you and the person in like the sixth row is like the only person you could see and that might be the person like on their phone Interesting.

Yeah.

Okay.

Well, then just don't be on your phone when you're going to see a performance.

That feels like a rule of thumb that works.

Yeah.

Agreed.

You're most likely not missing anything.

Except the performance.

Except the performance.

You're missing nothing on your phone.

Anyways, they went to Carbon for dinner.

And fun fact about me is I've never been to Carbonne.

And I'm like,

I know.

Isn't that so weird?

And I really want to go.

And I'm just like.

I'm literally going tonight.

Really?

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Will you bring me back some of that pasta that everyone takes a picture of?

Drop it off.

Of course.

I will.

I will.

I will.

I'll have to eat it tomorrow because I can't eat like after 6 o'clock because of acid reflux.

I don't know if any of my other pregnant women, this is the newest symptom.

Acid reflux that wakes me up in the middle of the night choking on my acid.

Burning my throat.

It happened to me once.

Burning my throat.

It is so scary to jilt out of bed, not like gasping for air.

Every single night, multiple times a night.

Oh, that is so scary.

So painful.

And also, like, scary.

I'm like, am I choking?

Right.

Okay, so it happened to me one time.

I never had acid reflux before.

I just, I don't even remember, like, I just shot out of bed, choking, and then I was shot out of bed, shot, like, literally.

And Ben was so freaked out.

He took me to City MD the next morning.

And they were like, you have pneumonia.

I'm like, what?

Oh, my God.

I'm like, I can't have pneumonia.

I'm supposed to go to Atlantic City.

And like, I remember being in Atlantic City being like, is this irresponsible?

Do I have pneumonia?

But I just had acid reflux.

You probably just ate too close to bed.

Too much, too close.

A girl boss, too close to the sun.

You really did.

Do you have any additional thoughts on Elizabeth Holmes after this stirring debate?

I do because, and I said before I gave my piece, like, I don't know much about the situation.

I've never watched a documentary.

This is just what I've gathered from social media and then the opinion I base that off of.

And I did get a lot of messages like, yes, she was defrauding like.

those rich people, but also taking advantage of patients.

And of course, I don't condone any of that, but it was a joke and it was a really funny one.

So I am going to stick with it.

So I just want everyone to know: when you hear me like making these Elizabeth Holmes as a hero jokes, know that it's a joke and it's so funny.

So you can laugh.

I completely agree that it's so funny.

I was laughing all day yesterday.

And also reading the comments were making me laugh.

Me too.

Because, you know, when you think about it, like when you think about this girl boss, you know, boss babe culture that we live in, like Elizabeth Holmes is kind of like

the face of it.

Yeah, our queen, Exactly.

I kind of look like Elizabeth Holmes.

You do.

Except she would be wearing a black.

This is actually a bump suit, which is like a pregnancy, like head, like neck to toe suit.

Oh, all the way down to your legs?

All the way down to my legs.

It's so comfortable.

I just got them, and I wish I got them sooner because now I'm not going anywhere.

So today was like the first day I was dressing up and I was like, I have to put it on.

How do you pee?

There's a zipper down the back.

Got it.

Yeah.

So I'm just like really, really, honestly, it might be more comfortable than wearing pajamas because it's like holding everything together.

Yeah, no, that.

In a non-threatening way.

In a non-like nauseating way.

Yeah, I actually think you would really like.

Like, I want to wear them when I'm not pregnant.

Is that weird?

100%.

No.

Okay.

I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Anyways, happy for Kanye that he's finding love and, you know, dining well and enjoying the theater.

I can't believe you've never been to Carbone.

That is so weird.

Oh, right.

I know.

Isn't that like so embarrassing?

Like, even when we went to Vegas, we didn't go.

No, we went to

went to Siddell's.

Yeah, yeah.

But no, I've never been to Carbone, and that's just like something.

Maybe that'll be like your first mom's night out.

How about that?

I'll take you.

Yeah.

Before we move on to the next story, I got to let you guys know about some lower back pain I've been having and the home edicts massager that has changed the game.

Next up, Jason Derulo is cuffed after attacking a man who called him Usher.

The savage leg, the singer Jason Derulo, let his wild side come out in the lobby of a Vegas casino Tuesday when he allegedly attacked two men, one of whom shouted, quote, fuck you, bitch, at him, and called him Usher, according to video of the incident.

The video seems to show the singer pouncing on the hecklers at the Aria Resorting Casino while coming off an escalator and passing a group of onlookers who had taken out their phones to capture their brush with the musician on video.

In a clip posted by TMZ, someone in the crowd can be heard shouting, why did you slap him, dog?

And then a separate voice yells, hey, Usher, fuck you, bitch, in an apparent reference to another recording artist, Usher.

Unclear whether he actually thought it was Usher or if that was, you know, a wise crack, but

this is like a really crazy story.

And I also don't know how being called Usher is so insulting to someone.

I don't think I saw the video.

I don't think that he was, you know, attacking them because they called him Usher.

I just think that was like a part of the video that people, I think, found funny.

Oh, okay.

Because I don't think he mistook him for Usher.

I think it was like a dig.

But the thing is, I saw the video, and these two guys were like totally like troublemaking menaces, like looking for a fight, like really provoking him and like

being rude.

But but i mean come on jason durollo like you are so famous what you're getting in fights with with fans or whatever you want to call them in hotel lobbies like we are you're supposed to be above this like yeah they were taunting him for sure like baiting him but he shouldn't have given in like you're a superstar what are you doing yeah yeah i agree that's really annoying though but i agree that he you know hopefully what should have just moved on right because now it's like this big thing no and he looks just like a loser yeah and like the headlines are all saying it's because he was called Usher.

And as you said, that's probably like irrelevant to why he felt the way he felt.

And now it's just got me thinking of the level of self-confidence that Jason Derulo has because like when you're, you know, super successful and you've all these people around you who are like always lifting you up, like you should be above, like you shouldn't be able to be so easily taunted by three morons in the ARIA with an iPhone.

Yeah, I agree.

I feel like things were going really well for Jason Derulo.

And now I feel like he's maybe going through a rough patch.

You know, know, he's getting divorced from like his wife, who he was, you know, they've had just like the best thing going.

And then all of a sudden it's over.

And let's talk about that.

Perhaps his wife's just wife.

Oh.

Just girlfriend.

And they had just had a baby three, maybe five months into them.

announcing that they were no longer together.

But then they seem to like kind of be back together on TikTok.

It's very unclear.

We never got like a clear message as to what's going on.

But I always thought there was a lot of weirdness around that breakup.

Like you were breaking up with this woman you've been with for a while who had a baby who's three months old with you.

Right.

And they seem so happy.

And so you don't just like, so I just feel like maybe he's going through some stuff.

And that's an interesting point.

Like, hopefully, he works it out within himself.

Hopefully, because behavior like this is just not no bueno.

No, and I love Jason Derulo, and I just, I want him to be thriving.

And I feel like for a long time he was.

So hopefully he can go back to that positive place.

If I could just quickly do a chart of Jason Derulo's success, because it's so bizarre to me.

Like, obviously, when he was only a a musician, he had like a real peak, Jason Derullo, and then he kind of became like a has-been really quickly.

But then TikTok really

reinvigorated his career, added this whole new level, and it shot him back up music-wise, but then also just like celebrity-wise.

But now it's kind of having that adverse effect.

Like, he does all these like stupid skits that are like vine comedy.

I'm like, what are you doing?

It's tough out there.

Yeah, it's like he stayed too long at a party

and now it's sad yeah

yeah

i agree then maybe maybe that's what he's feeling he's trying to find his next party right and now he's like at the place where some of his like you know drama with his girlfriend and mother of his child was like playing out on tick tock and she was like responding to comments and it's just like tacky and you're like you should be above that jason dorillo yeah but it's also like he is having this resurgence because of tick tock right and so these things are happening also because of tick tock It's, you know, you can't have one without the other.

It's a double-edged sword.

You can't have the TikTok success without the TikTok drama.

So true.

Are you ready for our next story with just some delicious food news?

Oh, I thought you'd never ask.

KFC will now sell plant-based fried chicken nationwide.

Oh my God.

We've got to go.

We've got to mukbang.

Mukbang.

Starting on January 10th, KFC fans can taste the chicken list beyond fried chicken.

Oh my God.

This just sounds like heaven.

I mean, the pictures look amazing.

I'm sure, you know, they're editorialized.

Of course.

The chickens are photoshopped.

Yeah.

But still, looks and sounds delicious.

Vegetarians will finally get to enjoy KFC's finger-licking good Kentucky fried chicken in plant-based form.

Beginning on Monday, customers can try KFC's new Beyond Fried Chicken developed by Beyond Meat exclusively for KFC at participating restaurants across the U.S.

So I'm sure like the participating restaurants are not anywhere near us.

even though that's what I was gonna say even though

I'm sure like you know based on demographics this is just speculative but I would imagine like there's more vegetarians in New York City you know where people

like Oklahoma probably have base dieters in like cities than elsewhere No, I think that's a fair assumption.

We always go through this.

Like we announce on the show there's a new thing.

McPlutt, when it comes to actually getting your ass up, going to a restaurant and ordering it, like it's impossible.

So it doesn't exist.

And I think that these big PR announcements should also roll out locations, cities, zip codes, because we're constantly getting our hopes up for you and the McPlant, and we've never really been satiated.

No, we've never been satiated.

I've never encountered a McPlant in my life.

And you know, I'm constantly seeking it out.

I mean, I'm always at McDonald's and I'm always with you.

And we're always asking if there's a McPlant.

And they're like, excuse me?

And they never is.

But that's why you got to give props to Burger King because there's always a Beyond burger.

The Burger King

franchise.

Impossible Whopper.

They are leading the space in plant-based options.

Not only did they walk the walk, they talk the talk.

There is actual products at all of their, you know, locations, no matter if it's on like a shitty side of the road or in a strip mall.

Like they got you covered at Burger King.

Yeah.

And that was kind of the takeaway from our Mook Bong.

It's like, is Burger King completely underrated?

Yes.

Yeah.

But it's just with this one menu item.

And it's really like looking at this KFC chicken is so exciting.

And it's like, wow, I could go to KFC and get a whole meal.

And it's like, that's how other people feel all the time about like everything.

What a fun feeling.

Privilege.

Privilege, truly.

Literally.

KFC privilege.

Well, I'm going to keep an eye out on like Uber Eats and stuff and see if these items ever pop up and I could order them.

Oh, yeah.

Uber Eats.

Like, I just feel like it takes so long for

it takes so long for the man, the CEO who releases this announcement down the pyramid to the actual restaurants into our hands it's like a year later that you'll actually get what you heard about right but this is like we're in the process january 10th is the rollout five days start the camera you have to look into i'm sure there's a place you could find the select locations that will be providing this yeah there should be a blog that's like um plant-based fast finder food find plat plant based fast food finder.

That's good.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

I am.

Oh shit.

I didn't get mine.

Like I have it, but it's not in my room.

That's okay.

I'll take it.

I'm so sorry.

What's it time for?

Oh, that's right.

The final story.

That's a magic number.

Gorgeous.

Feels good.

Feels good.

Our fifth and final story is a little casting news.

Chris Evans is in talks to playing.

Which one's that?

Evans.

Captain America.

Yes, and Knives Out.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Is in set is in talks to play iconic actor Gene Kelly in upcoming film.

Gene Kelly, you know, from Singin' in the Rain.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Gene, Gene.

So Chris could be stepping into the legendary actor's dancing shoes.

He's in talks to play the iconic star in a so-far untitled film.

People can confirm.

Gene Kelly died in 1996 at the age of 83.

Based on an original idea from the Captain America star, So I hope he gets the part if this was his idea.

Right.

The film tells the story of a 12-year-old boy who works on the MGM lot and develops an imaginary friendship with the singing and the rain actor while working on his latest movie.

So is Chris Evans playing the 12-year-old boy or

he would be playing the actor who makes an imaginary friend?

Well, he's, oh, he's the actor?

Is he Gene Kelly?

Oh, I'm sorry.

It's not.

Okay.

Okay.

It's not an imaginary friend.

It's a fictional friendship.

Like, it didn't happen happen in real life it didn't

imaginary i'm like is the guy gene kelling nuts yeah right

okay

so i feel like this is the sort of thing that could totally so just confirming chris evans is playing gene gene yes got it okay in a you know a half-true story see i like i don't see this i don't see chris evans being like a dancing you know actor from the 50s, but this just might be the role that like changes how we see him.

Because I know him as like Captain America, you know, big sexy man with his leotard.

But maybe there's more to Chris Evans than his leotard.

Honestly, I see this.

And I think this would be the role that like changes him from being so commercial to more

niche, academic, serious, artistic, but also like Gene Kelly singing the rain.

Like that's fun shit.

That's dancing, singing.

Like that's, it's not like morose.

So I think this could be the perfect thing for him.

And it sounds like a musician.

Does he sing and dance?

I think he must have some chops if he's putting himself up for it.

That's true.

You know, I'm sure he can dance.

I don't know about that.

Yeah, I guess it's like la la land with Ryan Gosling.

I wouldn't have thought that he was like a singer or a dancer, but he did, he did that.

He did do it.

Do you think he did it not well?

I don't know.

I mean, I don't like the movie, and by all accounts, I should.

So I'm tempted to blame him and Emma.

Yeah.

One of my takeaways from that movie was like it was good, but like imagine how good it would have been with like two trained singers and dancers.

Ooh.

Yeah.

I agree.

Like there's something that I mean

Julianne Huff.

So many people love the movie and to them it's a perfect formula.

But for me, there's something that was amiss.

I've never, I watched it more than once.

Me too.

I completely agree.

And like I'm about to say something crazy, but I actually like hate the movie.

Yeah.

No, like if you wanted to watch it, like I would probably go home.

No, or like I would be on my phone the whole time.

And it's a long movie, so that's a lot of screen time.

But there is that thing, like, da, da, da, da, like, the music is good.

Yeah, because it's Pasich and Paul.

Pasick and Paul, do it again.

Like, by all accounts, this should have been, you know, a steeny classic.

And it's should have been Oscar movie of the year, but it wasn't.

It should have been like Greatest Showman, level of, of, right.

Of love from me.

Of entertainment, caliber, of like, you know,

caliber.

Yeah, agreed.

Anyways, but this movie does sound good, and I hope for Chris Evans that he gets the part that he wrote for himself.

Cause, like, that would be weird.

Also, the last time we spoke about Chris Evans on the show was like the pretty believable rumor that he and Selena Gomez were dating, and absolutely nothing ever came from that.

And that's that's when it gets tough to do this job when you invest in something and you hear something that really tickles your fancy, and it's just a big fat nothing burger.

Yeah, and then it makes it like what seemingly was like pulled out from mid-air.

Like, there was no proof ever.

It makes you wonder what other nothing burgers have you eaten that you didn't even know.

A lot.

A lot.

Five seasons of doing this show, we've eaten a lot of nothing burgers.

And not that many beyond burgers.

No, not enough.

And no McPlants.

None.

Well, those were the fast five stories.

I feel as though you needed to know them.

And now we need to recap Vanderpump Rules because I caught up last night.

And I do have a lot of thoughts.

I was feeling, obviously it's not the best show on television, but it was...

Because you like do that, you know, I have one thing to say.

I know you, I know.

I just like to give a little teaser of what I'm saying.

Sure, sure, sure.

Even though it's not the best show on television, it was eliciting some strong reactions from me.

Agreed.

Okay.

Echo your sentiment 100%.

So I'm also going to talk about Emily and Paris in the TV recap segment, which is brought to you by Zotique Skincare.

Thank you.

Now I feel like we can properly recap.

Okay, so this episode was kind of crazy because now, at least to the viewer, as it pertains to Brock and Gina's engagement, it appears as though he tried to get Randall and Lala, like, footed with the bill.

That didn't work out.

Tried to then, in a crunch time, pay for it himself, cheap out, couldn't afford it, and is now piggybacking off of James and Raquel's gorgeous wedding engagement weekend in, is it Palm Springs?

I don't know where it is, but

Sandy.

That seems like his plan now.

And honestly, like, I know I do kind of want to see it happen because it'll be so crazy.

But Ariana and Tom really should have urged him against it.

Like, that is so mean to Raquel.

So wrong.

This man is a fucking cheapskate.

Like, it was so infuriating to watch.

And at first, I was like, when Lala was like, he expected us to pay for his wedding and his engagement, I was like, no, he didn't.

Like, yeah, whatever.

But

by the way, literally Brock doesn't even really know Lala and Randall that well.

And as of recently, was like in turmoil with them.

So, explain to me why, out of all the friends he has in LA, he went to Lala and Randall first for help.

Sorry, I think I think I'm going to explain his thinking.

Like, he saw that Tom Sandoval paid for and put on Raquel's engagement.

So, he was like, Okay, this is a group of friends that does stuff like this for each other.

So, if I want to put on a surprise wedding, like I'm going to go to the friend who's going to put on the best wedding for me, Lala and Randall.

And they honestly, it seems like they feel bad about like the foot that they got off to with him.

And like, Lala really wants to do right by Sheena.

So, like, she wanted to help as much as possible, obviously not pay for it.

So at first when she said he expected her to pay for it, I was like, there's no way he expected that.

But then to see what he did afterwards at every turn, I'm like, oh, no, he really, really did.

The idea.

That he would piggyback on their engagement weekend where like they chose this place.

I'm sure they're paying for the venue.

They're paying for all the activities.

It does.

And I'm sure they're getting discounts, whatever.

But like they planned it.

And he wants to piggyback in secret when like you are filming a television show.

So there are no secrets.

The idea that this could even be a secret is null and void from the jump.

We all, like, even if they were able to keep it hush-hush until it aired, like, it still would never, ever have been a secret is so wrong.

And just like fucking mooch.

And now it's like making me mooch.

It's making me look at everything, even though there was like moochie vibes the whole time.

But you know what?

Like, sometimes you gotta hustle.

And that's a fine line between a mooch and a hustler.

So true.

You know, and sometimes you do have to ask your friends with hundreds of thousands of followers if they'll post for free.

Like, and sometimes you're in the right to do that.

If that's a friend and you need a helping hand, like that's how they can support you.

But now, like, now seeing how he is going about this, I'm just like, everything he's done until this point is so moochy.

Also, him and Sheena have been together for about two years, and all of a sudden they need to have like this shotgun wedding immediately.

What the fuck is that?

Like, I understand it being both of their second wedding, so they're not having this, like, big Hollywood to-do.

That I totally understand.

But how do we go from that to like literal secret shotgun wedding?

I have no idea.

Like, there are so many places in LA, OC, or on up and down California that would put on a wedding for them, whether they want it small or big.

And they could, you know, be within their budget because there are places that would work with them that would give them a place for free.

But he, like, one, doesn't even want to do that work.

And two, like, doesn't want to pay for anything.

And if I were Sheena, like, this would make me feel so small and watching like i don't want to be the girl who got married on someone else's engagement party dime terrible it's terrible jackie like it's painful to watch and then like now you're seeing everything through this lens of like really getting a good idea of who brock is and like why he makes a lot of the decisions that he makes and then seeing him put a ring on six credit cards that he clearly can't afford.

But like trying to keep up with what Sheena wants.

It's just, it's all very alarming.

It's all coming off so toxic.

Like when they had that little like hiccup in their interview, like she was basically saying she gave more than $10,000 for him to start homebody and in return wanted 7%.

And he was just going back and forth on what the amount of money she gave him was.

And he got like so angry.

It's like, I'm just,

I'm not sensing a good future.

And I'm really proud of Sheena for getting a prenup.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, I agree.

Also, the Morganite ring thing, which we've experienced on selling sunset, which it's like, in general, I get whatever ring is going to make you happy.

It doesn't have to be the biggest thing.

It doesn't have to be diamonds, but the idea of spending $25,000 on Morganite when that is the cost of a really nice diamond ring,

like that's, I mean, I don't know that much about Morganite, but that just doesn't sound like a sound investment.

And also, like, if you are trying to

tighten the ring.

He's trying to give Rina,

he's trying to give Sheena the biggest possible ring,

period.

Right.

And 12 carats.

Like, who needs 12 carats?

And you're not even going to.

Nobody learns anything.

It's so, it boggles my mind.

And the fact that every time, like, the cost of the wedding comes up, and he's like, well, now I'm paying child support.

I gotta, I can't pay for everything.

And it's like, okay,

pays child support once and now like can't afford anything else for himself, but can afford a $25,000 not diamond ring.

So stupid.

And I'm, I know that next week they tell Sheena about the plan to do shotgun wedding.

And I'm very curious if she's going to have the self-awareness to put a stop to it.

Because I don't really follow it.

Like, I don't, I don't know if we're supposed to know what ended up happening with them.

Because are they married right now?

I don't know.

I don't want to know.

I like, it's like watching a scripted TV show.

Like, I have no idea where this is going.

So I don't know what she's going to say.

Yeah, I don't know either.

I do feel like she's going to be swept off her feet.

Like, she's,

it's like, if all that stuff hadn't happened with Shay and the, and her her literally having to fork over half of her that was crazy bank account, she wouldn't get a prenup with Brock.

But it's like, fool me once,

you know, she couldn't do that again.

But like, she really is so

trusting, and just like

she falls in love with people and just like

has blinders on.

And I'm not saying that she needs to like break up with Brock or anything, but like, I really would hope that she would be like, We're not getting married on someone else's engagement weekend that they planned.

It's not even about money, like, it's about the fact that like we are going there for them.

They took time like they took weeks to plan this.

Like there's invitations and everything.

And like just to make it about you, it's like the tackiest thing you can do.

Yeah.

And you know, she knows a lot of things, but she's not a mooch.

And I just, I hope that she puts a stop to it because then it's like Brock's moochiness is rubbing off on her and then they are the mooches.

Yeah, no, it's not, it's not a becoming trait.

He was really,

really bothering me.

And I felt like for the past few episodes, I couldn't get a full read on him in so many ways.

I'm like, he's so great for Sheena.

Like, I'm so happy for her.

He seems like, you know, even with all of his drama, like, he seems like a nice guy who's really in love with her.

And maybe this is it.

But I just feel like we're now seeing who he really is.

And he's a user.

And I think that that is just an awful quality.

And so obviously, like, he was the real

phony.

He's a phony with a 12-karat ring

that is

not

like who needs a 12-carat ring?

Literally, nobody.

And you know, he really took up most of like the

space in my mind for the episode.

But there was one other thing that happened that actually, well, there's two things.

One, three things.

Sorry.

Like, I can't watch anything about Schwartz and Sandy's because it's so painful.

Like, knowing that all these loans they took out, all the money they're, like, you're, you're, you took out a, a personal business loan or whatever, and you're giving that money to Tom Sandoval.

I can't think of two dumber things, personally.

No, like, like Tom Sandoval is going to lead Tom Schwartz into financial ruin.

And that is not what I want to see when I turn on my television.

And like, I just pray to God that they, like, in real life, they don't end up opening this restaurant.

But like, they are, like, breaking ground.

Like, they are moving forward.

And it's just very sad to see.

It's very sad to see.

I agree.

The second thing is, like, I also don't think it's the right time for anyone to be opening up a sandwich shop, let alone a sandwich shop called Something About Her or something with Her, whatever it was called.

And like, I was so on Katie's team team with the Schwartz and Sandy's things.

But now, if my options are a bar called Schwartz and Sandy's or a sandwich shop called Something About Mary or whatever it was called, I'm going with Schwartz and Sandy's.

Oh, that's interesting.

While I didn't love their original pitch idea, I do have faith that they will, you know, mold it and it will become something else.

But I do like the idea in general.

And I think it's also a much more conservative idea than trying to enter the like nightlife space, bar, yeah, bar, like that huge cavernous place that they have that they're going to have have to fill every single night, as opposed to like opening a sandwich shop and like, you know,

having more,

like, so just something a little bit smaller.

But I also, I don't know, she really like touched me when she was just like getting really emotional about having something for herself.

And I feel like that's something that a lot of people can relate to.

But I also feel like

when you're a reality star and even a celebrity sometimes, like, you know, there's so many perks and I'm not gonna like not gonna start playing a tiny violin for these people because they, you know, get paid so much money to do these shows.

But like, there really is like a lack of purpose.

And like you wake up in the morning and you don't have something to do and you don't have somewhere to go.

And like that is not, you know, good for, that's not like life.

You're supposed to have like drive and things to do and places to go, people to see and like, you know, people who are counting on you.

And like, I feel like the life of a reality star, especially like on Vanner Pump Rules, it's very empty when they're not filming, probably.

It's probably better when they are filming, but I feel like there is a lot of emptiness.

And I feel like her just even acknowledging that, aside from like wanting to have a baby and not having one yet, like I appreciate that she can acknowledge that this lifestyle is not what she wants for herself.

Yes, I completely agree.

I thought it was very like open and brave of her.

I just, I worry about the financials of everyone on the show, but I do think Katie was 100% right in the way she explained how like she's been in business with best friends before and it was awful.

And you really shouldn't ever go into business with like your best friends but her and ariana are like they're friends not by choice like by circumstance and i wouldn't say they're best friends like they know like where the line is and they both like have the same amount of like love in their hearts for each other i actually think the two of them together as a team make a lot of sense i agree their friendship is probably more predicated on professional circumstances just from doing this show than it is on tom-tom on emotions and i feel like they both get that and sometimes yeah that's exactly who you should go into business with not people where there's so much emotion riding on it and whose business sense you don't really know anything about.

And then the one thing that I wanted to talk about was something that really fucking bothered me because Tom Sandoval went over to Lala's house to get his makeup done.

And you know, Lala's so great, like, she can actually make me like anyone.

So they're sitting there, like, having a good conversation.

I'm like, you know what?

Maybe Tom Sandoval isn't that bad.

And then literally five seconds later, he turns around and like, not only does he pretty much lie about what Lala had said about James and Raquel, Raquel.

He's like gassing James up, like trying to get him mad at Lala.

And it's like, what are you doing?

Like, why can't you just have a nice thing and like have it, let it be a nice moment?

She wasn't talking shit.

Like, you guys were just friends, kind of recapping what's going on in the group.

He was like, She kind of spun it to me, James, that like you're controlling.

I'm like, what are you doing?

He's so fucking two-faced.

Yeah.

No, I think that Lala has his number.

And I think him coming and wearing her makeup was a solid

for like a nice favor that he did for her.

So she was going to like, you know, be nice to him in her house.

But I can't imagine she can stand him.

Also, do you ever, have you thought now that like Lala and James are both single?

Yes, of course.

Do you think that they would make a good couple?

No.

I agree.

Like, I know it's hard for people to like really understand how like guys and girls are like, can be friends, but I actually think they are real true friends.

Yeah, and I don't think that they should date, though they always do have just like the cutest moments and he's always like making making her laugh.

But I guess it doesn't mean like you have to marry that person.

No, but I hear you like 100%.

Okay.

Okay, cool.

And then I just really want to quickly talk about Emily and Paris.

I won't spoil anything, obviously.

But it was so bad.

And towards the end, like there was, there was some serious low-budget acting happening.

And one scene in particular, like really got to me.

Like when her roommate Mindy was in the park, like going through some drama with her bandmates, because like her bandmates found out, like, oh no, her daddy's rich.

Like, it was so stupid.

And they're acting, and it was giving community theater.

And it was so embarrassing.

Like, I was actually like, if somebody had walked in on me, if some is Bruno working, he's mad about me.

He was upset to hear about the community theater.

If someone whom I respected walked into my room and saw me associated with that show, like, I would have been embarrassed.

So I kind of like needed to evaluate, like, is this worth ruining my reputation over watching this show?

I don't think so.

Okay, that's, those are some strong words.

I'm sorry.

I said what I said and I said it well.

Okay.

I'm still going to dip my toe in, but I will only go as so far as I can because I just like, I can't be watching or consuming content that is hurting me.

Yeah, that's like embarrassing and bringing shame to your family.

Agreed.

And that's why Bruno was barking.

He's like, Auntie, you cannot be watching these things.

You know what I want to watch?

Once again, we are on the same page.

I want to watch Bruno in Paris.

Me, too.

Bruno and Theo, Crew and Dew, and Brew.

Crew, Dew, Magoo, head to Yuru.

Oh, my God.

So good.

So good.
