What is it that makes the all-new Hyundai Palisade Hybrid an incredible SUV?

Is it the spacious interior that's comfy for the whole crew?

Or the capability to go off-road?

Maybe it's up to 600 plus miles of range?

What if it's all of that and more?

What is it then?

The all-new Hyundai Palisade Hybrid.

Is it the driver behind the wheel?

No.

Are you sure?

The All-New Hyundai Palisade Hybrid.

So much more than just another SUV.

Visit HyundaiUSA.com or call 562-314-4603 for more details.

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the morning shows.

Happy hump day!

Jackie, have you humped anyone you love this morning?

No, I haven't, though.

I did get to sleep in a little bit with Brute Dadu, and that was really special, and I felt like that was a great way to ring in the day.

The hump jay.

Yeah, but Dew's not here, and usually he's our hump day mascot, so it does feel a little bit lackluster.

I'm definitely like off today, today.

Like biological clockwise.

Well, we started it a little later today, which is why, if you're watching on YouTube, the sun is pouring in.

So, who knows what's going on?

It's gorgeous.

I mean, it's really not.

You just have a blind behind you, and I don't, so it's not great for me.

But hopefully, the sun does what it does, and it will continue to rise and set.

Such a good call.

At some point in this episode, it will move on from this window.

That's really brilliantly said.

You know, like the sun waits for nobody.

So, we had pushed back today's episode.

I figured I would need some major rest after night two of Luke Homes.

Of course I woke up the same time I always do and I had all this free time.

So I ran a bunch of errands that I needed to do because I literally leave for tour tomorrow.

And

then I had breakfast with my sister, which was so nice.

You know,

having breakfast like outside of your home, like going out to breakfast is a really nice little treat, you know?

Yeah, it is.

It's so rare.

It really is.

Or how are you feeling about the N-Log tour?

Are you excited?

I am.

I mean, I don't know what I was thinking doing back-to-back Luke Holmes concerts and then my tour because...

But what else would you have done not go to the shows?

I probably wouldn't have banged my neck back and forth so many times.

I have to go get a massage after this.

I cannot turn my neck.

Like it is fully stiff from two nights ago.

That's an unforeseen cost and damage of the Luke Holmes concert.

If I was feeling litigious, I might draw up a suit because I literally cannot move my neck.

No, and like when that song comes on, like even if you swear to yourself, I'm not gonna move.

I'm not gonna snap my neck.

I'm not gonna snap my neck.

You cannot that you will find yourself snapping your neck the sounds just overcome.

Yeah, and you will snap your neck.

So last night was great.

I'm not gonna lie.

Like, I can't choose a favorite night.

He really changed up the set list a lot, which was nice because most people only go to one show.

So if he played the same set list, like no one would care.

But we really got just like two totally different experiences.

The first night we went, we had like amazing seats.

We were so close to like really in the thick of it.

And then last night we were up in a suite, which was just so luxurious.

And really got to just enjoy the show from afar.

Like I was watching the crowd a lot, like seeing these people in New York sing a song about like

a large mouth fast.

No, like, you know, I was thinking a lot.

He sings his song, My Kind of Folk.

Okay.

He says, My people buy beer on Friday, get rowdy on Saturday night.

They're all good people.

Come Sunday under steeple and Monday they'll be right on time.

There ought to be a law against working this hard and still having that much fun.

I've never seen people in New York sing a song about working hard, like ever in my life.

That's just not one of our core values.

Like, you know what I mean?

It was just shocking.

Like it was, it was surprising.

Yeah.

And going to church on Sunday.

Yeah, like it was just not something you hear.

And people were just living for it.

It was so good.

It was really an honor, a pleasure, and a privilege to be in the audience, not once, but twice, really.

So stunning.

It was another great night for me watching from my bed, you guys having a great time.

Counselor took care.

She had really good footage.

Yeah, Counts really, she does a nice job on those IG stories.

So it was great to watch you guys have so much fun.

And yesterday was actually such a busy day.

I can't believe today is December.

That's you would never know it by the sunshine behind me.

You know what?

It's December.

It's December.

You like that?

Yeah.

And yesterday we actually recorded a lot of exciting tings.

So you actually shared a vlog on the Patreon yesterday how you pack for the N-Lock tour, all your tips and tricks and all the things that like get you through being homesick and sad and like making you feel comforted.

And there was an exclusive peek at my outfits.

I am changing it up.

I mean, it's still like similar, but changing it up.

And you're also changing it up from show to show.

Yeah, I'm no longer wearing the same thing every time and I'm no longer wearing like disposable pajamas from Amazon.

Like I spent a lot of money.

I invested in good, very cool outfits that I think everyone will really like.

I'm not sure which one I should wear.

I think I know which one I'm going to wear, but like tomorrow's a big night, opening night.

And I think I know which one I'm going to wear.

Very cool.

And then last night I recorded a podcast episode with Zach that will be up on Friday because we don't have an episode on Friday because as we said, you will be n-login.

So that was.

I just hate n-log.

Oh my god, I love it.

But I also love the DJT.

DJT was such like a cultural moment.

Yeah, no, but N-log is works for me.

Can you do me a favor?

Can you just move your feet in frame so we can get some new viewers, free feet pics over here?

Okay, I slid my shoes off because my feet are getting hot in there and I'm pregnant, so I can do stuff like that, you know?

You know, I want you to put them in frame.

No, my feet are really not.

They're really cute.

You have a pedicure.

I do have a pedicure.

Okay, fine.

They're not bad.

And with the sunlight on them, it's kind of gorgeous.

All right, if you like free feet pics, head over and subscribe to our channel.

Thanks.

Speaking of feet, on Vanderpump Rules, which I watched last night, which was a travesty per usual, like on the next week's episode, they start selling feet pictures to pay for Raquel's nose job.

That's a real storyline, yeah.

And we're supposed to just suspend disbelief that we know these people.

A lot of them make $20,000 an episode.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You're kidding me.

Yeah.

Oh, I think that's where I actually draw the line, for real.

No, last night's episode, I would say I caught about 15% of it in between being on my phone.

Yeah, no, of course, and just like living your life.

Right.

So I will share my thoughts, as always.

But we've got a lot to talk about today.

Oh, I hope everyone enjoyed Portia Williams.

The feedback was great.

Yeah.

And I really hope you guys get her book.

She's really

not like other girls.

No, no, no.

Ooh.

And that was a really exciting.

like pinnacle moment for us.

Yeah.

Oh, also today's a big day.

It's Spotify wrapped.

Yes.

We actually have a story about it.

Oh, okay.

So we will get into it.

check it out okay our first story Kim and Kanye put aside their drama for Virgil Ablo's tribute in Miami Kim and Kanye put on in a united front to appear together at late designer Virgil Ablo's final show for Louis Vuitton in Miami.

The divorcing couple, along with their daughter North, paid tribute to the label's former artistic director at his spring-summer 2022 collection in Miami on Tuesday, marking his final presentation for the brand.

Kim and Kanye sat front row at the final collection billed as a celebration to the designer's life and legacy at Miami's Marine Stadium with their eight-year-old daughter North.

So I think a lot of people were like quaking that they were together.

First of all, like they have four kids together and North was there.

Like what?

Because they're divorced, Kanye Shit and say had a Kim and North.

Like it's so stupid.

Like I didn't think it was like a big deal, but I did think that this event was beautiful.

Like the things I was like the drone lights and that big statue of Virgil.

It was really spectacular.

Yeah, and the hot air balloon.

Nothing about this surprises me.

I do think people are quaking like, are they getting back together?

I don't think this means anything other than they both loved Virgil so much.

He was such a big part of their lives.

And they're going to be together as they mourn and celebrate his life and like their kids are there like

they're family always and whether they do get back together or they don't has nothing to do with last night yeah it's totally separate yeah but this does come off the heels of like a very bizarre instagram story from kanye like a week ago with a picture of kim like a tmz article just being like i'm getting my family back and like tagging kim that he was gonna like get Kim back and inspire millions.

That's what he said, right?

That would be very inspirational.

Yeah, and I really think that

they might get back together in like a year, but she needs to do her thing right now because she stayed home for so long, stayed quiet for so long while he got to run around.

And now it's Kim's time, and then I do, but I do think they'll find their way back to each other, especially if Kanye never gives up.

Right.

You know, because

it could be, you know,

convincing.

Yeah, no, I could see that being the end of this all.

Like, Kim gets to have her fun.

Kanye is working on himself, being the best husband, the best father.

And then after she's had her fun, it's time to come home.

Yeah, so I don't think that this was that last night at all, but she's not done.

She's not done.

She's still having fun.

Pete Davidson is still, you know, taking her out to breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

So she's going to continue to ride this ride.

But this event was like really sickening.

Yeah, I mean, I wish I could have been there, but I saw obviously like a million videos on social media, and it was really, really gorgeous.

Like a beautiful way to honor someone and also just like a very well-done event.

Yeah, did you see any pieces from the collection?

No, I only saw like these art installations.

There's stuff in the sky.

Yeah, like drones and

hot air balloon.

And there was a big statue of Virgil that was like an LV pattern.

Very cool.

But no, I didn't see any actual products.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing the 2022 Spring Summer Collection joggers.

By the way, I mean, I don't know anything about fashion, but who takes over for Virgil now?

I'm sure that LVMH has a successor

in mind.

I wonder who it is.

Hopefully someone talented who wants to be able to do it.

That would be ideal.

Yeah, you never know.

It's big shoes to fill.

Oh, by the way, whoever comes in next is screwed.

Yeah.

But hopefully there's someone talented and they can take it in a new direction, not just trying to recreate because you're never going to be Virgil.

No.

No, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Okay, next story.

Big news for Bachelor fans.

The new Bachelor for season 26 has been announced.

This is the first time in my life where I don't even recognize the person or the name.

Clayton Echard Etchard has been officially named as The Bachelor.

He is Michelle's ex from her current season.

Is he on right now?

Is the show over?

I don't think the show's over, no.

So I guess we know he doesn't win?

I guess so.

Or she already sent him home.

No, it would be so early.

Like, that would be like someone so random getting...

I feel like he makes it to the top four or something.

And we just know now that he's not it, but he's not like top two.

And also, photos of him filming with a camera crew were leaked, so maybe they wanted to get out in front of it.

But that happens all the time because they do say that they do those packages with multiple people.

Kayla Quinn was spotted in her hometown.

Right before they decide who it's going to be.

So I do feel like they could have kept it under wraps.

But this guy seems really, really cute.

Did you see his picture?

No, he's a cutie.

The dogs, he looks like Jesse Palmer.

He does.

When I saw the headline and the picture, I thought that maybe it was like a random, like, I didn't even know he was on this season.

I was like, maybe they just chose some random hunk.

Are you going to watch?

No, but like, I'm...

He looks really like, this looks exciting.

No, he looks like all-American.

He looks like Colton.

He looks like, you know, a million people.

Yeah, he does look like Jesse Palmer.

Yeah, actually really similar to Jesse Palmer.

And there's dogs in the promo pic and then the slogan is everyone loves an underdog, which makes me feel like his whole storyline is about dogs, which is like sweet to a point.

Or his whole storyline is like about being a loser, an underdog?

No, no, I think he definitely probably like works at an animal shelter.

For sure, for sure.

There's definitely like multiple dog references in his life.

Yeah, I agree.

Like this is the first time I saw a poster and I was like, what show is this?

Like I know I didn't even recognize remotely someone from like Instagram.

Yes, agreed.

Or even the name of people that are people are talking about, like, Michelle and Blaine.

No, totally.

Like, I have literally, I'm sorry to this man.

I don't, do not know you.

No, but it was a kind of a cool feeling.

It made me feel like, like, fresh.

Like, yeah, it's a new, really a new season for The Bachelor.

And if you're Bachelor fans, I hope this guy is someone worth rooting for.

Yeah, I.

It's so crazy.

I literally don't know, and maybe it's just because I'm getting old.

I do not know one person in my close immediate circle besides a snatcher who watches a bachelor or who enjoys it.

Yeah, well, your circle's pretty small.

That's true.

It's literally in the center here.

It's a line.

It's a line.

It's not a, it's really a square.

It is a square.

Yeah.

So congratulations to the Bachelor fans who wanted Clayton to be the next Bachelor.

You got what you wanted.

Good, good.

It's the one you got.

Clayton is such like a bachelor name.

Totally.

No, everything about this is just like classic bachelor.

Like look at this.

So he's going to be the first season hosted by Jesse Palmer, correct?

Yeah.

That's him or that's Jesse Jesse Palmer?

That's him.

How are we going to tell them apart?

You guys, this man actually really looks like Jesse Palmer.

How are we going to tell them apart?

So it's the first one that Jesse Palmer's hosting, right?

I guess so.

It'll be Hunk on Hunk Crime.

No, it's going to be like that Spider-Man meme.

You?

You?

That's what The Bachelor always is, though.

No, but this is, I've actually never seen two people look so similar on the franchise.

Actually, the Fergie twins, those were the two people who looked the most similar, in my opinion.

Yeah.

But I don't know, not everyone sees it.

No, I think people could see this.

Yes, this is Jesse Palmer.

Maybe it's Jesse Palmer's like twin brother.

He's a former tight end for the Seattle Seahawks.

The Bachelor is slowly becoming just like a destination for failed athletes.

Yeah, that works, though.

I think that's great.

They're in great shape.

Hopefully.

Or they've got some money saved up from their time in the league.

They are used to a little bit of limelight, perhaps.

Right, they're not like thirsty because they've kind of tasted it.

Yeah, they're always, you know, waiting their turn.

Who else?

Obviously, Colton is a former

Clay.

Clay.

I would say Colton though is the most famous.

Because he was the lead.

Because he was the bachelor.

Before he was the bachelor, like the most famous as a football player.

Like I hadn't heard of Colton.

I hadn't heard of him.

No, but like Jordan Rodgers, did he ever play in the league?

No, he like got benched and then quit.

But he has a lot of claims to fame.

Well, because of his brother.

Yeah.

That is still the craziest shit ever.

I know.

Who else played in the league?

I just feel like it's always only football, though.

Like, I don't see any ex-MLB players in there.

Yeah, maybe minor league.

Maybe.

Yeah.

Well, good luck, Clayton slash Jesse.

We're on to you.

And hopefully you find love.

Already have.

Are you ready for our next story?

Only if it's an ex-story that's brought to you by Liquid IV, the only product getting me through this extremely difficult and challenging week.

Liquid IV is hydration.

in a packet and you've just got to get into it.

Cooler weather makes it easier to miss signs of dehydration like overheating or perspiration, which means it's even more important to keep your body fully, properly hydrated during the cold weather.

So one stick of liquid IV in 16 ounces of water hydrates faster and more efficiently than water alone.

So if you have trouble drinking water, I can relate because it's just like the most disgusting thing ever.

Throw liquid IV in there.

It comes in tons of flavors, tastes so good, and keeps you hydrated.

I mostly use it for hangovers and it's extremely effective.

Just jam-packed with good stuff.

It's just if you're traveling a lot, going to see family, you get really dehydrated on planes, just throw liquid IV with you in your purse.

It's always good to have whether you're drinking alcohol or you're not.

Just always good.

It makes you feel good.

Also, they have a great charitable aspect to their business.

They're on a mission to change the world.

They've donated 4 million servings in response to COVID.

Their products are being donated to hospitals, first responders, food banks, veterans, and active military.

Grab your favorite liquid IV flavors nationwide at Walmart, or you can get 25% off when you go to liquidiv.com and use the code Toast at checkout.

That's 25% off anything on the entire website when you get better hydration using promo code toast at liquidiv.com.

Wonderful.

Okay, our next story: Spotify rapped, and the most played artist on Spotify

worldwide.

We have a lot of different.

Is it three yes?

No, but that's close there on the list.

Is it a man, woman, single, female?

Like single male.

Hmm.

Oh, like Jay Balvin?

No.

Bad bunny?

Bad bunny.

Wow, that only took three guesses.

That's bad.

That is pretty good.

For the second year in a row

with 9.1 billion streams.

He must be so rich.

Then, number two was Taylor Swift.

Wow, yes, Queen.

Yes, exactly.

And then BTS, Drake, and then Justin Bieber.

And that's for worldwide.

Hmm.

Okay, is there an American one?

No, there is American one.

Okay, because I'm thinking that I saw on Instagram today, Morgan Wallen posted something that he had the biggest album, 3 million albums sold.

So wouldn't that put him, and it was more than Olivia Rodrigo and Drake's album.

So

here's the U.S., and but this is just for Spotify.

So if he was selling albums, albums

then it might

he's here, but not in the way that you would think.

So here are the U.S.

stats.

U.S.

most streamed artists.

Okay.

Number one, Drake.

Wow.

Number two, Taylor Swift.

Queen.

Number three, Juice World.

Oh.

Number four, Kanye West.

Wow.

Number five, Bad Bunny.

Wow.

Surprising.

Kanye.

I mean, his album was huge.

Yeah.

But it was like here and then gone, you know?

Yeah.

Then U.S.

Most Streamed Songs, the most streamed song, number one.

Can I guess?

Yeah.

Driver's license.

Yes.

Let me keep going.

Number two.

Easy on me.

No.

Is it on that list?

No, it's not.

It came out too recently.

You can't compete with 12 months of streaming.

No, I completely agree.

Okay, keep going.

Number two is Good For You by Olivia Rodrigo.

Right.

Number three, Kiss Me More by Doja Cat.

Wow.

Doja Cat is like, I know she's really famous, but I feel like she's really underrated.

No, I don't think she's underrated, but it is surprising that she's not on more of these lists of like most played artists because like every single one of her songs is like number one on, you know, everything.

Spotify, TikTok, Instagram reels, like everything.

Instagram stories, everyone's putting it in their shit.

And you know what's so weird?

Like I've never actively listened to Doja Cat, but if I went to her concert, I would know every song.

100%.

And that's called Impact.

Yeah.

100%.

Then Heat Waves by Glass Animals.

I feel like that's one of those like vibey TikTok streams.

Did you listen to it really quickly?

I feel like it's because I've never even heard of that.

No, but I feel like it's going to be something that you would know every word too.

Glass

Okay, I'm watching.

Why don't you just go to Spotify?

Oh,

me

can make that's the thing with TikTok.

Like, you know every song that you've never heard of.

Yeah, no,

even I feel that way.

And I'm not on TikTok, and I know that's.

Well, you watch the regurgitated trash on Instagram Reels.

No, but also then those songs are the ones that people choose for their Instagram story, soundtracks, stuff like that.

And then they like get put in commercials and shit, like because like companies are trying to be cool.

Yes.

And then the number fifth, the number five song was Levitating.

That song was really big, even though there's like so much drama around it.

Why?

Because Debaby is on it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Like, I think she, like, when she submitted it to the Grammys, she submitted the version without him.

I don't think anyone really wants to fuck with him anymore.

Yeah.

Then the most streamed albums, number three.

Wait, this is so random, but I know we spoke about the Chappelle special.

I think the most surprising part of the Chappelle special was that thing he said about Debaby.

Did you know that?

The shooting?

Yeah.

No, I didn't know that.

I didn't know that either.

Yeah.

Just side note, I don't think we ever talked about that.

U.S.

Most Streamed Albums.

Number one.

Let me think.

Sour.

Yes.

I'm so good at this.

Number two, folklore?

Oh, that wasn't this year.

Dangerous by John Wallen.

Was folklore this year?

No, 2020.

Okay.

Number three, Planet Her by Doja Cat.

There she is.

There she is.

Number four, Justice by Justin Bieber.

And number five,

Legends Never Die by Juice World.

So, okay, I have a lot of things to say.

First of all, The Snatcher, have you heard about her conspiracy theory by Justin Bieber?

You know what?

I was just going to bring that up because it's feeling very pertinent to this particular situation.

So, Margo, one of her top five songs on Spotify this year was Anyone by Justin Bieber, which is a gorgeous song.

Gorgeous, but she was like, that is just not in my top five.

I did not listen to it that much.

And so she put that on her story.

And apparently, a lot of other people are reaching out saying, the same thing happened to me.

Like, it was not my top five song of the year, but it's coming up in my Spotify rap.

And it's making people feel like this shit's rigged.

Okay, here's the thing.

I want to say one thing.

I really don't think Spotify would sacrifice their data for Justin Bieber.

Like,

I just think like there really is so much honesty in the Spotify rap.

Like, I just want to say that.

I agree.

I really believe it's strictly based on data.

But.

I do think Justin Bieber is showing up in a lot of people's sings because maybe on Spotify, he's like a really recommended artist.

They put all of his songs in all these different playlists.

And maybe that makes him show up more, not necessarily making it inaccurate, but just making it like kind of

like staged almost.

Like, of course, he'll be in everyone's.

Of course, he'll be in everyone's top.

We put him in every playlist this year.

Right.

He came up on my top songs, like, in my overall playlist.

So, you know how they make you that 2021 playlist.

Oh, yeah, which is so fabulous.

Yeah.

Oh, I wish there was numbers next to it, but he's probably like number

15 for me with anyone.

I don't think that I literally have.

Oh, my God, stop sucking.

But I did have that song Hearted, so I did listen to it a lot, very much so on a plane with a tear in my eye.

I don't think that I got any Justin Bieber on my

top Spotify rapped.

I got a lot of country, a lot of Tinjon Mayer, Together Again by Janet Jackson, like is the song I listened to 45 times this year.

Um

45 actually?

Oh, no, no, no.

So they do tell you for some songs how many times.

Yeah, but I'm just looking to see if I have any Justin Bieber on mine, and so far I don't.

It's literally just Taylor Swift, Rascal Flats.

Honestly, mine is all Morgan Wallen Dangerous, the album.

I listened to it so many times, and I even took months-long break from listening to it, and it's still dominated my Spotify rapped.

So, you know, it's so funny.

I think probably every year since Spotify has come out with rapped, a couple songs from the native album by One Republic always end up on my top playlist because that to this day is like, in my opinion, the most critically acclaimed album of our generation.

Yeah, I mean, it's always a good go-to album to listen to.

That's something you should have downloaded on your phone, like buy the album when you're on a plane.

It's so inspirational.

Yeah.

Also, my top artists were so interesting this year.

Only because in number five, a new artist, usually it's always the same for me, you know, like Little Mix and Taylor and Nashville Fats, Lady A.

But Mitchell Tenpenny made it to my top five this year.

Yes, Snitchell, get it.

You love to see it.

Oh, I love that for you.

I love that song Bucket List.

I was listening to it this morning.

I was like, I think I listened to this song so many times that he, that he rose to my top five artists.

Mitchell Tenpenny is out here putting out some of the best music in country music right now.

That's really true.

And I'm really happy for him and Snitchell as well.

And I'm really happy for myself that we now have these playlists of all the songs that we liked most this year.

And now we get to listen to it for all of December.

And you know that your December streams do not count towards any Spotify rap.

Not for next year.

This year, not for this year.

So you could, like, that's why holiday music never makes it on.

You know, it's really funny.

I'm looking at my top artists.

Two out of five of my artists don't like exist anymore.

One direction.

For this year.

Yeah, for this year.

And Rascal Flats.

Like, it's so funny.

I don't listen to new music.

Like, I just love what I love.

Like, Taylor Swift, John Mayer.

I love what I love.

And that means sometimes listening to retired music.

What I do is like I, when I find a song that I like, I heart it.

And then I only ever listen to my hearted song.

So it's the same songs over and over again.

So usually my top songs of 2021.

It's just my liked playlist.

Yes.

But like based on how many new songs I added, like things just get moved around.

And also, one of my big songs this year was Quite Miss Home by James Arthur.

My Spotify rapped is like a little bit, it's very kind of like a melancholy vibe.

Gold rush, Taylor Swift.

Because you were in like COVID mode, you're in pregnancy mode, you're not putting on like rain on me.

Yeah, no, there's no bops like that.

Not at all.

Actually, when you go down a little further, when I was in my like intense working out phase, you get those songs.

Dark times.

All I know.

No, no, no, those were good times.

I have good associations.

I was like running and I was like, yes, little mixed heartbreak anthem.

Give it to me, David.

That is,

seriously, like probably the best song I ever made.

Yeah.

No, I didn't listen to it on repeat on the treadmill.

No, that song like does make me want to go for a jog, which is very rare.

See?

The power of music.

They should release a 30-minute song for like someone who wants to go for a jog.

Yeah.

How's the belly?

Belly's feeling good.

It's nice and big and plump.

Is that a maternity shirt?

It's another maternity tea from the gap.

The gap.

It's honestly so comfortable and it really does make a difference to where a maternity does.

Yeah, I don't know what like the difference is.

I feel like there's more width on the sides,

but if I just like put on one of my t-shirts that looks like this, like it would be deeply uncomfortable.

Whereas like this, just I'm I have room to breathe.

That's so fabulous.

Yeah.

Are you ready for our next story?

Some more music news.

Sure.

Adele announces a Las Vegas residency beginning in January.

Still no Buckingham Palace.

Adele has announced an exclusive residency in the Coliseum of Las Vegas' Caesar Palace Hotel beginning Friday, January 21st.

It will be titled Weekends with Adele, and the singer will perform two shows each weekend through Saturday, April 16th.

So it's not like a full lifetime residency.

It's like a special.

Yeah, but it's not as bogus as some of the other residencies we've seen, where it's literally three nights in Vegas.

Yeah, I think that Vegas really took the word residency and ran with it because residency means you have a residence there.

Like you live there.

Brittany's residency was a residency.

Celine's residency was a residency.

Donnie and Marie, they live in Vegas.

That's a residency.

Katy Perry performing two weekends weekends ain't a residency.

Cardi B doing one show, not a residency.

We've talked about this, like the terminology has changed.

And also this way they're able to get like more current performers who don't have 10 albums worth of stuff to play every single night.

But, you know, it's more relevant.

So this honestly is a really good idea.

She'll probably like live in LA and then fly out on the weekends to Vegas.

She does live in LA now full-time.

And that sounds like a nice way to live your life.

And make some cash.

And makes some big money.

So she'll have a total of 12 dates.

And if you're going to any one of them,

I'm happy for you.

I definitely have started, you know, talking to some peeps about going.

One of the dates?

From January to April.

That's your busiest time.

Yeah, and it's your busiest time as well.

I don't see you making it there.

I wanted to ask you something without triggering you, but I think I know the answer.

Like, you're not coming to stagecoach, right?

Like, you'll have a two-month-old baby.

It's

TBD.

Like, that's a total.

But you still might?

I might go or I might not go.

Might go?

I see how I feel.

Okay.

We always are last minute about that stuff anyway.

No, totally.

I've been just gathering tickets and trying to gather.

I have the tickets, so I need not make any decisions.

I have no idea what kind of thing.

You're saying I should maybe save one ticket for you.

Yeah.

I probably won't wind up going, but I'm not going to make that decision right now.

I don't know what kind of postpartum girly I'm going to be.

No, I think you're definitely going to be a stagecoach postpartum girly.

I mean, I would love to be that.

And also because Luke is performing, and that would make up for everything that I've lost.

No, I mean, I would literally cut the umbilical cord and run to stagecoach.

Like, that would be me.

Yeah.

And then take the kid home.

It's easy to say that.

You know, obviously.

I think it, I'm sure there are, like, moms listening who are like laughing in my face.

I'm not going to go.

That I even think that I might.

100%.

Two months later.

You're going to be like attached to the kid.

I know you're not coming, but I'll still save you a ticket.

Yeah.

We'll talk about it, but I'm not going to decide right now and just write something else off for myself, you know?

That's true.

You must be open to all possibilities in this life.

Exactly.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Like the Organifi green juice with essential superfoods and a clinical dose of ashwagandha.

Ashwagandha just really is like one of those miracle superfood items that makes you feel like clear and lucid and it's just a fabulous product and it tastes really good in the Organifi.

I think you guys will enjoy that.

Yes, and our fifth and final story is a bit of an update.

Sorry, oh my god, it almost slipped my mind.

It's the final story.

Justin Bieber manipulated the Spotify rock.

Don't tell Scooter Braun.

Well, he would know if they did it.

He was the one.

I really don't think that they did.

No, that's really funny that Snatcher's onto this.

And it's just an interesting song.

I think she's just embarrassed that she listens to that song so many times, especially because I don't know.

I wouldn't be.

It's really good.

It's really good, but it's extremely depressing.

It's dark.

It is.

But that's fine.

And also, like, she's a little Justin Bieber girly.

Like, it's fine, Snatcher.

Just admit it.

Embrace it.

You've got the Bieber fever.

She's sick with Bieber fever.

It's not COVID.

It's the Bieber fever.

Our fifth and final story is an update from a story earlier this week.

Lovely Bones author Alice Siebold has apologized to the man who was wrongly convicted of raping her.

She wrote a public statement posted to Medium where she issued an apology to the man who was cleared last Monday of all charges in his 1982 conviction, which served as the subject in her best-selling memoir, Lucky.

Also, Netflix has scrapped the adaptation of

the best-selling memoir After the News, and the book has been pulled by the publisher in light of the exoneration.

Ooh, yeah.

I mean,

okay, thanks for the apology, but

I don't know, like 16 years in prison, I just don't think an apology is going to cut it.

Yeah, I mean, but she had to say something.

No, of course, but this is just not looking good.

What's her name?

Alice?

Alice.

Yeah.

It's just a really awful story.

Yeah, and I tried to do a little more research on like her involvement in the

conviction, and it ain't looking good for Alice.

Yeah.

Like she was like, you know, not completely clear.

Yeah.

She went on to write that she was a traumatized 18 year old rape victim and she chose to put her faith in the American legal system and I mean that is true she now regrets but still like at what cost you know a man's like 16 years of his life yeah this is just one of those terrible stories where like everyone's a loser yeah

agreed that's so sad but actually crazy that they're pulling her book I mean it literally tells the story of like this man like the worst thing in this man's life something he didn't do right and now it's inaccurate right and you know know, I'm glad they're not moving forward with like a series.

Yeah.

There's just too much.

Yeah.

And you know what?

The book has been around for a while.

I'm surprised it wasn't already made into something because she's been a really popular writer like since we were kids.

Yeah.

So I'm surprised it wasn't made already and it's better that it's not out there, you know?

We just need to let this story just die down.

Yeah.

Well, those are the past five.

I feel as though you needed to know them.

For sure.

And now a little TV recap, shall we?

Yes, I didn't have time to watch Vanderprump Rolls, and I want you to tell me what happened, but we can also talk about how I believe tonight is the Real House Size of Orange County, like comeback episode, Heather Dubrow.

They're putting all, they're putting their entire foot into Heather Dubrow.

And I'm.

The thing about Heather Dubrow, though, which, and I love her, I know, my little girlies, she's not the main character.

She's always like such a great

side dish to the main course.

She's a mashed potato with like creamy garlic butter.

Yeah, maybe a little truffle, but she's not the meat, though she might be the potato.

So to put put it all on Heather, and also she's not going to get dirty, get her hands dirty, and like ruin her life and her reputation for her manicure.

So I think it's a faulty plan.

But there are still other two other housewives

and Shannon Bedour, who I do have faith in.

Yeah, she'll get her hands dirty.

And Noela tries to like stay above it, but like we see right through Shannon.

She doesn't play the game very well.

No, but I do believe we will now finally see Heather DeBrow's house.

Well, that's exciting.

Which, you know, for the last week, actually all of last week, they were playing old episodes of OC on Bravo and I was really enjoying it.

And it was the episode where Terry takes her to like this plot of land that's like amazing and tells her that he bought it and they're going to like build this whole dream house.

And that was like literally like 10 years ago.

Yeah.

I know it's on YouTube, but I'm waiting to like really see the house.

Yeah, no, I'm good on a YouTube tour.

I was going to say, also the Real House Ice Miami trailer dropped.

Did you watch it?

I saw a clip of somebody yelling at Larsa Pippen that she's a wannabe Kim Kardashian, which must have cut so deep knowing she is a wannabe Kim Kardashian and isn't even friends with Kim Kardashian anymore.

Yeah, yeah, the second part definitely hurts most, but it looks really good.

Yeah, it does.

So it's a peacock only thing.

I have to catch up on Real Housewives' Ultimate Girls trip.

I have a bunch of flights coming up, so I will be fully prepped.

And are you thinking you're going to finish Pump Rolls?

Well, last night, like, I had the bandwidth, so I watched it, and it, I don't mind, like, if I don't have to pay attention and I can be on my phone then it was fine it's just really getting so infuriating last night's episode was a complete waste of life well Jackie's gonna recap the pump rules episode from last night which is brought to you by Bolin Branch this cyber week bolin branch is offering their best deal of the entire year and if last night's sleep wasn't incredible mine was because I have Bolin Branch sheets their sheets will make all the difference with Bolin Branch you get the best sleep of your life with the highest quality organic cotton sheets.

Okay, so last night, Vanderpump rules.

I mean, we're back.

The crux of the issue is like Katie versus Tom Sandoval.

And Tom is just...

So staunchly, Team Katie.

So staunchly, Team Katie, so staunchly over this storyline in general.

And if no one checks Tom Sandoval, then the show is just going to go off the rails.

And the thing is, I think the fans, majority of them, like him.

So I...

Is it Sandoval?

Yeah.

I think that, like, I'm in the minority and that I need to go.

I think I'm going to go before Tom Sandoval gets held accountable.

I'm actually shocked to hear you say that.

I don't think that that's the sentence.

People are not.

People

don't like Katie.

Not, I mean, it depends who you're talking.

Like, if you look at Twitter, they don't don't like Katie, they don't like Lala.

Everyone else is the hero.

You can't relate to these people.

I can't really.

No, so it's like if someone needs to, like, be checked, it's me.

And I need to check myself out the door.

I'm the show.

You need to check out of the hotel.

But the thing is, morally, like, we are on the right side of history.

I know we are.

No, especially as it relates to Katie and Tom Sandoval.

He's just so infuriating.

I mean, this episode was just a farce.

You know what?

I can actually see how like an audience member might not love Lala.

She's not everyone's cup of tea.

But I don't know how you watch Katie versus Tom and you consciously can sleep at night siding with Tom.

I have no idea.

But then Brock, I think, took the cake this episode

on just

really

upsetting me

because he drank a beer out of his shoe

during his confessional.

Oh.

So he was talking about it in the.

Did he put the shoe back on afterwards?

Yes, of course.

So

he went over to like Tom and Ariana's house and they were talking about like chugging beers or whatever.

He's like, you got to do a boot chug.

And he was like, I'll show you sometime.

And then in his interview, I'm sure they asked like, What's a boot chug?

So he takes his shoe off.

What kind of shoe?

A loafer.

A loafer, like a dress shoe.

Uh-huh.

Pours his cup of beer into the shoe.

I'm going to puke.

Drinks it, and then puts his shoe back on.

And that's what I had to watch last night.

What do you think is worse?

The concept of drinking like sweaty foot beer or then putting your foot back into a soggy beer shoe?

The concept of drinking sweaty foot beer.

But the second is still really bad.

Yeah, no, but like at least that's your foot suffering versus your insides.

Yeah.

And you know he's got a sweaty shoe.

I mean have you seen those thighs?

Yeah.

Those shoes are working hard.

Hard to support those load-bearing legs.

Right.

So it was just something I did.

That's twisted.

It was something I did not need to see.

And

I, unfortunately, I did see it.

And I don't know how I where I go from here.

I'm really sorry.

Then there was also like this Mad Max pool party.

And I'm sorry, but like these themes are just getting stupider and stupider.

We just have have a pool party like where we can just be normal like and it doesn't have to be you know like burning man in your backyard in the valley no that's like a thing on summer house and winterhouse too it's like every party has to have a theme and then they get so many boxes from Amazon with like lu wow signs and it's really stupid well it's because they can't really go anywhere I know but like In summer house winter house, it's like, okay, if you're all staying in a house, that's how we can like differentiate every night.

That's fine.

But like they're in LA, they're all coming over to your house or we're going somewhere.

Like, let us dress like how we want to dress.

And Sheena actually was saying like she's so sick of these theme parties because she doesn't have anything to wear because like nothing fits her right now 100 which i just so related to yeah um but she looks great everyone you know shows up mad max style but it's just like what are we doing no i know uh it was it was really hard even if you go continue watching you don't need to watch last night's episode that that's like some of the best thing you could ever tell me storylines were just like so thin lala sheena and katie went to pilates

and then katie and Lala start talking about Tom Sandoval because Tom Sandoval and Katie had just recently gotten into a fight like a bad one where he really disrespected her and they're just talking mad shit and you know Lala can't stand him either and she is a snitch Sheena's just sitting there and then she then everyone else gets together without Katie and Lala and she says I felt so uncomfortable Pilates the other day

the snitch of all time and so of course Katie and Lala are like what the fuck what the fuck it gets back to them and she they were like I feel Katie was like I feel like you did that not because you felt uncomfortable that we were talking about him but because you didn't want to like be seen as a bad guy who's like a shit talker.

So if you snitch on us, then you can.

You're a hero.

Right.

Not have, like, instead, they literally called her out flat on her face.

And she was like, yeah, no, I'm sorry.

And

they ended like by hugging.

And I was like, but that's when you love Sheena.

That's true.

She's messy, but she owns it.

She does.

Like, she really, you could see like the realization dawn on her.

Like, oh, I fucked up.

Yeah.

That wasn't cool.

If I want these girls to be my friends, like, that's not how a friend acts.

No.

And, like.

And if I really didn't want you guys talking shit about Tom Sandoval all I had to say was he's my friend please can we stop yeah like you know it was that simple yeah so it was just so silly so silly I'm like afraid to ask like what's up with the nose drum nothing new but James is on so he's sober from alcohol but apparently he smokes weed every day all day every day and he met up with his dad's friend who was like

you need to you know quit weed so that's his next step and he also wants to quit nicotine too um

and i i really hope that he has has success with it.

I feel like a lot of people, they call it like California sober.

Jemmy Lovato.

Yeah.

So

I

but like he's like, I wake and bake and, you know, it must be really, that will be a hard one.

Yeah.

Like if you rely on it so much.

Yeah.

That's tough.

So I hope that he has success with that.

Same opportunity.

And that was rooting for James.

That might also explain some of the other erratic behavior.

That was like, he said he was taking like workout pills or something.

Yeah.

But it's like if you're, if you're still relying on substances, like then there's still a a problem.

There's still a problem.

So we shall see.

Well, that sounds exciting.

Thank you.

Not enough Lala.

Ever.

We did get a little baby ocean, which was cute, but not enough Lala for me.

There's never enough Lala for you.

No.

All right, well, thank you for the Vanderpump Rules or recap.

But something that we didn't talk about that happened this week, Lala selling merch of brand new of her tattoo, which like to me is the nail in the coffin.

We are never ever getting back together.

No.

And like, let's keep in mind, like, Lala's a single mom now, and she has bills and she was comfortable for a while and now she's back on the hustle.

And I very much respect that.

I do.

And maybe I should just purchase a shirt to support it.

Yes,

you should.

I mean, you're brand new, right?

I'm so brand new for sure.

So I know, but I mean, as though.

And she renamed the podcast.

It wasn't, it was like Lala and Rand, and now it's just like, give them Lala or whatever.

It was Give Them Lala with Randall.

And that was always like the second half could always be take it or leave it.

So I feel like she did that intentionally.

And even watching the season, it's like she's so,

everyone I'm sure will be like, it's foreshadowing what's going to happen.

But she was like, if Tom

San Tom Schwartz like disrespected me the way that like he disrespects his wife.

You mean Tom Sandoval?

No, Schwartz.

He doesn't have Katie's back.

Ever.

She was like, Rand doesn't get to sleep next to all of this.

Like, and it's really, she really did.

She talked about the walk.

She walked the walk.

And I feel like at the remote, everyone's going to try and like come for her.

But it's like, she's doing everything that she said she would if it happened to her.

Right.

So what else could you want?

No, that's actually a really good point.

Yeah.

Okay, well, thank you for that, Jax.
