Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the morning toast.

Happy Thursday.

Hope everyone's having a great day.

I'm having a chaotic day so far.

My morning.

Always a journey.

Always a journey.

My morning just got turned upside down.

I just want to tell you guys what happened quickly so you can understand the headspace that I am, which is frantic.

It's giving Claire Crawley.

Okay, so this morning, and I've been feeling recently like it's time to start letting brew out of the crate when mommy leaves the house.

You know, I mostly am home with him, but I do come to the show every day.

And he goes in the crate.

He knows that he's going.

He goes, you know.

And it's actually like a really good schedule for him.

I just want to say that.

It is a great schedule for him.

But I've been realizing more and more like it's time for him to take the next step and to be left out of the crate.

So I was like, you know what?

This morning is a good time to do it.

I'll be gone a few hours.

He knows I'm coming back.

Like it's not a random time of day.

So I do my thing.

I leave him out.

I leave the house.

I'm checking the dog camera to see if I can see him.

I couldn't see him yet.

I'm in the Uber and I'm checking the dog camera.

I still can't see him, but I'm hearing noises.

It sounds like something is happening, you know.

These are nefarious dog noises.

They're nefarious noises.

And he wasn't making the noise.

It sounded like he got into a package of some sort.

I was like, oh, I must have left, you know, like one of my packages by the door and he's trying to open it, whatever.

I get out of the Uber, I run home, and I get home, and he got into a pack of Cheetos.

He deserves that.

Which, like, we keep all of our snacks in the same place forever.

He's never jumped that high to get one of the snacks.

So, like, the second mom leaves the house, he has a lot of money.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

He had this master plan.

Like, he's like, I'm getting those Cheetos when I have free time.

So,

suffice to say, Brew is back in the crate.

Thank God you you went back because who knows what else could have gotten into it?

I mean, he would have finished a bag of Cheetos and then he would have gone for his next half.

The chocolates, like, dangerous.

No, you guys, it was too soon.

He was not ready.

This man was not ready.

So it's back to the crate for Brew, but we tried.

And that's really all that matters.

But I just want to say, like, mother's intuition.

Like, I

those sounds were not correct.

No, you knew they were nefarious sounds.

And I just, Brew, I said, I love you still.

I thought we were somewhere that we aren't.

And that's okay.

You definitely jumped the gun.

no i mean like it's hard people say like at one year they're fine to start being on their own but you know every dog is

different like you i think i think you measure or take a lot of notes from magnolia but magnolia is like was brought up by a single mom like she has a different type of energy like magnolia is tough Bruno is like a little bit of like a spoiled brat.

Like he's spoiled with love.

What do you mean?

He's mommy's king.

You work from home.

For as long as you've had him, like you and Zach have pretty much both worked from home like he's spoiled in a sense like he's never had to really deal with any adversity yeah so he's just different and that's okay it's okay you know what it's okay it works for us he'll stay in the crate he loves the crate and so he's he's safe he's sleeping off those cheetahs right now good good good good and i'm just upset because i can't eat now you don't have any cheetos now i don't have any cheetos devastating it is it that was probably the hardest part but um i'm glad that you know it all worked out and that I went home.

Otherwise, I would be so anxious sitting here like knowing what's happening.

No, it's it's not enjoyable.

No, not enjoyable.

Let's scratch at Bruce Stays in the Crape.

Bruce Stays in the Crepe.

Yeah.

Well, this is our last in-studio show for the week because I'm headed to the airport right after this to go to LA for literally like two days.

But I am very excited.

I've got my Luke's put together and it was not easy, you guys.

Like I am just...

I'm wedding fatigued, like, or just like black tie event fatigue.

Like, I've searched every website.

I've worn all my possible dresses.

Went to one wedding?

No.

I've been to like literally six weddings in the last couple months.

Where?

All over.

I went to one in the Hamptons.

I went to, yes, one in Rome.

I went to one in Long Island.

I went to one in Tully Ride.

Six months.

Maybe less than that.

I went to Tuddley Ride.

Like, I've been to a million fucking weddings.

Oh, okay.

And I have four this weekend.

That's just not how I see you.

as someone who's always at a wedding.

Well, maybe that's something you need to work on because I've literally been to so many fucking weddings and that's literally like my cross to bear for being so popular.

Okay.

And being such a great wedding guest, like you, who wouldn't invite me?

Yeah.

I'm really like, if you invite me to your wedding, like you're getting your money's worth.

Like, I will eat everything you paid for.

I will drink everything you paid for.

I will dance to the band that you paid for.

I will close this place down.

Wow.

So, like, who wouldn't invite me, you know?

And they're like, I'll put you on my Instagram too, which is always just like an added bonus.

That's true.

I'm a premium guest.

That's very true.

You always have to think about that.

Like, I mean, I got married so young, like, I didn't even know what I was doing.

But if I was planning a wedding now, like, I would evaluate every single guest based on what value they bring to the wedding.

Not like, oh, well, she's from, you know, middle school.

No, fuck that.

Are you going to bring value or not?

Right, but you haven't seen like middle school Diana in so long.

Like maybe she turns up.

That's true.

It's hard to know.

That's true.

But I think it's still a fair way to assess.

Like if you're getting married, like do a value check on all your guests.

Yeah, no, that's definitely true.

And you can definitely invite some people who, okay, you're not that close, but like you want them out there on that dance.

You want that energy.

Yeah.

Yeah, 100%.

So I'm going to another wedding this weekend, but I'm very excited for this one.

And yeah, that's where I'm going after this.

So tomorrow's episode will be podcast only.

I do apologize, but there will still be an episode.

Yeah, so no worries.

And tomorrow will be like all about the new music because

there's just a lot to process.

And you know what's so nice is like for most of the new music, I'm going to be in LA, which means I'm going to get it at 9 o'clock.

Oh, that is nice.

Which is such a privilege that people on the West Coast like never talk about.

They're always complaining like bachelor spoilers.

Really?

Like you get music literally before you go out for dinner.

Like it's so nice.

That is interesting.

All we hear is like the negatives, you know, never the positives.

It's twisted.

For sure, for sure.

For sure.

So, how was your night last night?

My night was good.

I went to dinner with TPG and Tyler C, and it was just like, I've never felt so short in my life.

I actually wore the biggest pair of boots

that I bought yesterday.

And it was just like, it was a lot, you know, like the two loves of my life, but it was really fun.

And I have a terrible headache, but I'm pushing through.

Did you drink a lot?

Or this was an unearned headache?

No, I definitely earned it.

Okay.

I didn't drink like a lot, but I didn't drink a little.

Okay, that's good.

But you know, there's a Casamigos Blanco shortage.

Do you know?

No.

I know.

For the last, oh, right.

For the last like couple months, pretty much every restaurant in the city does not have Casamigos.

And if they do, they don't have Blanco.

There's like a major shortage in the New York area.

Like everywhere I go.

So I've had and you don't understand like it's all I drink That's there's not like really another option

sure like just supply chain like that's like like everyone's talking about supply chain like okay that's literally how the supply chain is affecting me so When I go places it really makes it a huge problem for me so when I go somewhere and they have Don Julio Blanco like that I will drink that but at the restaurant we went to last night They didn't have Don Julio Blanco.

So I just kept getting drinks with like different tequilas like trying them all

I had 818 Blanco in a margarita and I'm so sorry.

Like it was disgusting.

Like I couldn't believe it.

Because I've drinked it like in shots before.

I don't think it's like a good tequila to make cocktails with.

Okay, but it's good for shots.

It smells like chocolate.

Like, it's so bizarre.

But it's good for shots.

Yeah.

That's probably more important.

It is good on its own.

But when I took a shot with it once, I was like blacked out.

So like I probably would have drank anything.

Then I had Casa Dragones, which was like okay.

But a little smoky, which is not my favorite.

And then I got really fucking desperate and I drank ha ha.

And it was some of the most disgusting shit I've ever drank in my life.

Wow.

So I was like just desperate.

And then I went to, then we went to another place afterwards that had like Don Julia Blanco.

But I don't know, are other people cities, states experiencing this shortage?

It's really affecting me.

I mean, these shortages are out of control.

It's the first one I've been in contact with.

Directly in contact with?

Or directly affected by.

You don't see it like when you're grocery shopping.

I don't really go grocery shopping.

Oh, okay.

So yeah, unless like there's a shortage on Uber Eats, it's probably not going to affect me, you know?

Yeah, I understand.

So that's my drama.

And I think that's why I have such a weird headache.

Like it's, I have a headache like placed in the center of my my scalp.

You have a Casamigos headache, an 818 headache, Casa Dragonis headache.

And then I have the ha-ha flu.

Don Julio headache and the ha-ha flu.

Yeah, so that's why I have a headache because I basically drank like five different liquors.

It was just like, and then I got so many drinks because I just kept hating them.

This is, yeah.

So I was like, let me get another one, finish this one, until I landed.

And it was, it was a journey, but you know what?

That's life, you know?

Yeah.

Adversity.

Yeah.

But I came through on the other side.

Wow, that really sounds storage-risk.

It kind of was.

And I was like, I guess I could just switch to like wine or like literally anything else, but I don't drink anything else.

I'll just not drink.

Yeah.

There's got to be one other thing.

You have to have a backup.

No, I know, but like, I don't.

A beer?

Okay, I'm not going to dinner with Tyler C.

No, he would love to be like,

oh, Claudia, you're not like other girls.

You're not like other girls.

Yeah.

Did Tyler drink?

Red wine.

Classy.

Red, red wine.

And Brian drank like a little bit of everything.

He started with martinis.

But Brian's like such a big guy, like it doesn't even phase him.

It's different.

It's like him drinking a Pellegrino is him drinking a martini.

It's the craziest thing.

Yeah.

So yeah, it was a lovely evening.

And

that's like my jam.

Okay, cool.

Well, we've got a lot to talk about today.

I spent the night watching the CMA Awards, so that will be our first story.

All the winners.

When I got back from dinner, I watched like every clip on YouTube, so I feel like I was there.

Okay, cool.

No,

it was really exciting to watch.

It was back at full capacity.

It was the real deal.

Everyone, it felt like everyone was there in every category.

All the nominees were present.

So it's like anyone could win.

It was really exciting to be a part of.

Country music respects the CMAs.

I feel like all these pop music award shows are so like obviously rigged.

Nobody goes to any of them except the Grammys.

And still, even the biggest artists don't go.

Yeah.

Country music, like they really kind of like look out for one another.

They all show up for the CMAs.

And that's why the CMAs are successful and you'd love to see it.

You love to see it.

So without further ado, I think we're just going to jump right into 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 Hydro Jug.

You guys need to get your hands on the water bottle everyone is talking about, the Hydro Jug.

It's seriously one of our new favorite items.

They're durable and reusable.

They hold more than half a gallon of water, so you will stay hydrated all day long.

So, yes, they hold half a gallon of water.

They have a leak-proof seal, a wide-mouth opening, so it makes it really easy to add ice or fruit or whatever you want to add.

It also has an integrated handle because chugging looks cooler one-handed.

It's dishwasher safe, shatter-proof, and it's just great for keeping you on track with drinking your water and carrying it around with you, leaving it at your desk, taking it with you to your meetings.

It comes in like tons of cute colors.

It's a great way to just stay hydrated, gamify.

And a lot of celebs are using the hydro drugs, so that's pretty much all you need to know.

You can get your hydro drug at www.thehydrojug.com and use code toast to get 10% off your order.

Thank you, Claudia.

First story, the CMA Awards 2021, the full list of winners, and then we'll talk about some of the performances.

The big award of the night, Entertainer of the Year, went to Luke Holmes.

So deserved.

It was the only award that he won during the broadcast last night.

So it was the first time we heard from him on stage, aside from his performance of his new song,

which was so beautiful and stunning.

By the way, he probably thought because he didn't win any awards, like he definitely wasn't winning.

Because Chris Stapleton was winning everything.

He won Song of the Year album, male vocalist, and it just was feeling like, okay, it was Chris's night.

This is Chris's night.

But I guess Luke, and I would agree, was more entertaining this year than Chris Stapleton.

See, I never understood how you can have the album of the year be the male vocalist of the year and not be the entertainer of the year, but that's happened to Luke.

Like in previous years, he's won so many of those big four categories and not won entertainers.

It's a little different though, because it's like to be the male vocalist of the year, like that's just about your pipes, like whose pipes sounded the best.

I don't know if it's about singing abilities.

It's about vocals.

Like really if you're getting down to it and then the entertainer of the year is is about everything.

It's about the shows.

It's about social media.

It's about commercials.

Like, you know, so you can be one and not the other.

Yeah, I guess.

I mean, we've been waiting for this for so long.

Like I have a very, very

vivid memory of last year Me and Margo were at TPG's house watching, and they were like, Luke!

And me and Margo started screaming, and I forgot that Luke Bryan was nominated, and it was like, Luke Bryan, like just moronic.

But he is an entertainer of the year.

He hosted last night.

You know, he does American Idol.

That's the sort of thing that gets, like, he's been entertaining all year.

Yeah, I guess, but, like, still, with COVID, no one was doing more than Luke Hombs, six feet apart, putting out music as frequently as he could, killing it on social, doing all these live streams.

Like, he was the entertainer of the COVID year, and you know what?

I'm glad he didn't win it because who the fuck wants that?

Like, right, this was a real year.

This was a real show.

Fans were there.

There'll be crowds and there'll be shows.

And there were.

And so it was just so beautiful.

Obviously, like his winning moment, like he was really surprised.

I think we all thought it was just going to be Chris Ableton again.

Yeah.

He hugged Nico.

He went up to the stage.

He was so nervous.

Like he didn't really even like say anything.

I agree.

I did not think.

He said, I've never written a speech for a moment like this.

I never thought it would happen.

He was just shook to the core.

I'm just obsessed.

And you know what?

I realized something about Luke last night when he was making a speech and when he was singing his performance.

You know that thing Ben does with his feet?

It's not pigeon-toed.

I've learned I was pronouncing it wrong.

It's the opposite.

I think it's duck-footed.

Okay.

Or, yeah, whatever.

He does it.

I think that's why I'm so attracted to him.

So now that makes it okay that Ben's doing it.

Now it makes it cool.

Now every time you trip over his foot, you'll be like, oh, Nico goes through this too.

Yeah, I was so.

I just couldn't believe it.

You know, we've waited so long for this.

Like, we are OG Luke Combs.

Like, we've been with him since day fucking one and it just feels good to have like the the benefits of our hard work like to finally pay off yeah yeah no it felt it felt so good it was the perfect way to end the night then also uh female vocalist of the year was carly parcel someone else who did not think she was going to be winning it was such a pleasure to watch her freak out freak out like

And you know what's nice about Carly Parse, and I felt this way for a really long time, like when we first, you know, entered the Nashville scene,

everyone in Nashville like has so much respect for her.

Like the way they talk about her, like she's the most hardworking, everyone just has this like mutual admiration and respect for her.

And you have to wonder like what, what that's all about.

And I think she's just like a really hardworking girl.

Yeah.

So it's nice to see someone.

Have their hard work pay off.

Yeah.

No, it was, and I didn't really know who was going to win this category, female vocalist.

I didn't have a

horse in this race.

Gabby Barrett, Miranda Lambert, Ashley McBride, Marin Morris, Carly Parr.

So I would have have been happy with anyone.

Me too.

But I was happy to see it go to someone who really, really didn't think.

Yeah.

To have that like moment of, which we rarely get these days of like, holy shit.

Especially at the CMAs, because for a while, it was like the same five people winning every award.

Yeah.

And especially in female categories, it was always Miranda Lambert or Carrie Underwood, which they're both deserving of, but like.

We could change it up every year.

Yeah.

The male vocalist of the year was Chris Stapleton.

I felt good about that, especially because even though you guys know I'm not like a huge Chris Stapleton girly,

i'm not against him in any way it just never stuck for me but his performance was like head and shoulders above everyone else he performed on his own and then he also performed with jennifer hudson and like he is the male vocalist of the year the thing about chris stapleton that i fucking love is he is weirdly and no one really talks about it because he's so fucking low-key he doesn't like take paparazzi pictures like he's like he is so fucking famous he literally sells out arenas like in the same way that like beyonce and Taylor Swift do.

Like he has the biggest following.

Everyone wants to work with him.

He's on red.

He's on Adele's album.

But he's so country and he's never once wavered.

Like he goes to CMAs every year and he goes to the Grammys, but he's so country and he's like so proud of his country.

And I just fucking love that about him.

Yeah.

No, he he was giving us everything last night and I and I fully understood and I was I was not upset with his winnings.

But he's like the most low-key artist and most people don't realize I think he has like similar sales, album sales and ticket sales as like the biggest artist in the country.

Yeah, he's like garth brooks literally like he does arenas single of the year went to starting over by chris stapleton the best song of all time album of the year went to starting over by chris stapleton well deserved what other albums were nominated 29 by carly parse dangerous by morgan wallen that was never gonna win heart by eric church and skeletons by brothers osborne so people are really upset that morgan wallen didn't win he was also banned fans from coming walking the carpet performing etc but he was allowed to be nominated i guess well i mean his album is the country album of the year.

Right.

It broke all these streaming records.

All these country album records.

Like, critically, it was so good.

The fans loved it.

Even when, like, they were running through the nominations in the

broadcast and people were cheering for each nomination.

Like, the cheers were through the room.

Morgan Wallen fans are not happy.

No, they're not happy.

And you know what?

When it comes to album of the year, like,

that actually, I think, in my opinion, was the biggest country album.

I mean, numbers-wise, it was.

And it's not just about the numbers, but musically, it was stellar.

It was really good.

So, this is like a, I don't know where we go from here.

Like, where does Morgan go from here?

He's back on the road.

He's doing shows around the country.

Yeah.

I don't know where we go.

He, like, tweeted, I think, today, that he's just like thankful for his blessings and thankful for tomorrow.

He's trying, like, not being like sour about the whole thing, but the fans are pissed.

The fans are pissed.

The fans are like putting up billboards.

Like, the fans are crowdfunding.

I haven't seen billboards in stuff.

I was just seeing like on Twitter because it's pretty glaring yeah no of course his absence and i guess this was the only category he was nominated in um he could have been nominated in other categories too but they just realized i just think it's weird that they're gonna ban him but still nominate him like

go all the way or don't no but You can't ignore the music and the place that it held.

I wonder how long that's going to last.

Right.

Is this a one-year ban?

Well, actually, I think it's been two now.

No, it was, the album came out in January.

Yeah, but no, like his incident.

His incident was just a few weeks after the album came out.

Oh, okay.

So it's only been one CMA.

Yes, this is the first CMA.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

We'll see.

Yeah, we'll see.

Song of the Year went to starting over Chris Stapleton, vocal group, Old Dominion, the vocal duo, Brothers Osborne.

Okay, I need to talk about this for a minute because obviously I would literally lay down on a train track for Brothers Osborne, like give them my virginity obsessed.

And I was so glad they won.

Was there a butt coming?

No.

Oh, you're so glad they won.

So glad they won.

Even like, just, I think they deserve to win.

They're literally releasing the most stellar music.

But

TJ Osborne getting up and winning and kissing his boyfriend was the most, I know it doesn't seem like a big deal.

It's historic.

Like that's never happened in country music.

And I just thought it was a stunning moment for everyone.

It was a stunning moment.

It was a great night for the Brothers Osbourne.

They performed Younger Me, which is a song that like could make me cry.

And also, I'm just so emotional.

Everything fucking makes me cry.

Like that song, even before I was pregnant, it came out and it's just like so beautiful i try and make people listen to that song like everyone should listen to it it's so good and so it was just a great night and a great moment and as tj said in his speech like love wins and he was just so happy to be celebrated and it was it was beautiful yeah and i thought you were gonna say like you're glad they won but like should have gone to like

no absolutely not like i stand brothers osborne till the day i die like i'm i'm so happy for them and it was just this one little moment but it was huge like you never see that and it was just it was amazing yeah it was amazing I literally have a screenshot of it on my phone.

That's so cute.

Well, because I was like happy, but then also kind of sad that he had a boyfriend because I've been like trying to set him up, like sliding in his DMs.

Have you really?

But I literally have a screenshot of it on my phone.

Cutie.

New artist of the year went to Jimmy Allen and he performed Freedom is a Highway, which is the best fucking song.

And someone needs to pick it up for a car commercial.

Yeah.

It reminds me of the song that came out of

Songland that was

for who?

For the Jeep commercial, Young.

I don't think I know it.

You do, because I'm always playing it.

Okay, well, also about Jimmy Allen, I just think, like,

the more I've, like, Dancing with the Stars is fully rigged.

Like, Jimmy Allen, of course, got sent home literally last week.

He had to go to the CMA Awards.

Oh.

Kenny Moore literally got sent home the week Real House of Atlanta started filming.

Like, it's fraudulent.

Interesting.

Or maybe they're just throwing the round because they're like, I got to get back for the CMAs.

No.

No.

No.

Also, Jimmy Allen's speech was like so, so sweet.

What did he say?

He just like talked about his journey, like moving to Nashville, that like five years ago at the cmas he spent his last a hundred dollars so he could come see uh charlie pride perform and then last year stop i'm gonna cry last year he performed on stage with charlie pride and like it just

thanked his wife and his kids and it's just

so cute i'm gonna cry yeah so those were all the awards that were announced on the broadcast um two that weren't announced but were both won by kelsey ballarini were musical event of the year and music video of the year.

Half of my hometown is an amazing song with Kenny Chesney and Kelsey Ballarini.

It really really is and she was serving looks last night.

She is constantly serving looks.

She actually does a really, really good job.

Yo, like she, her red carpet look was so incredible.

And then she presented in another incredible look and she really brings like couture.

She does.

She takes it seriously and we really appreciate that.

But I thought everybody was looking great last night.

Everyone was looking so glam.

Individually like doing their own thing and I was very into it.

Yeah.

Any performances that were a highlight for you?

Literally Lucombs and Lucombs only.

Like Like it was fucking gorgeous.

It was incredibly gorgeous.

Also Carrie Underwood and Jason Aldean.

I didn't know they had a song together.

Yes, they do.

And I very much enjoyed that song.

It's really good.

Yeah.

And then Jennifer Hudson just I didn't see that.

So I'm actually planning on watching like all of this on the plane.

Okay, cool.

I brought my iPad.

Cool, cool.

No, the performances were great.

It was just really nice to be a part of something last night.

That's how I felt.

Like to not be watching a reality show, just like to be in music's

biggest night.

Country music's biggest night.

People are saying, I saw people saying on Twitter, like it really is not the same ever since the Morning Toast didn't do the red carpet this year.

But, you know, we were limited and we weren't asked back.

But we were limited in our capacity.

And we'll be back.

We'll be back.

And I thought Luke Bryan did a cute job hosting.

Yeah.

He was cute.

Like, no matter what, like, you always end up finding the host annoying.

Like, just shit.

Yeah, but he brought out enough people that he diluted his sameness.

Yes.

Yes.

Okay.

Are you ready for our next story?

Is it the next story that's brought to you by Organifi?

Okay, next story.

Alec and Hilaria Baldwin dine in New York City at trendy sushi hotspot Bond Street

amid the rust shooting lawsuit.

So Page 6 obtained exclusive photos of the couple departing New York City hotspot Bond Street where they dined with Hilaria's hairstylist on Wednesday following their trip from Vermont.

Also, one of the producers on the movie is now suing Alec and really?

Yeah, for emotional distress caused by the shooting.

Okay.

I want to say something.

I think that Hilari and Alec are probably handling this like the worst any two people can handle anything.

And I think they're just so toxic.

But I do think people are being like a little unfair.

Like,

like, oh, they're out to dinner.

How could they?

Like,

You still have to eat like, you know what I mean?

Like, I think people are really taking like advantage of this situation and and just, like, criticizing everything they do, but they do make it so easy because they're so hatable.

Yeah, you know, I don't know, because it's hard not to compare this to, like, the Travis Scott situation.

Okay.

I mean,

no, I don't agree with that at all.

They're not the same by any means, but it's, it's a similar

tragic event.

No, I don't agree.

With this celebrity who is

partially responsible.

No, I don't agree.

In what way?

I don't think Alec Baldwin is responsible at all.

Like, I think that...

You don't think he's responsible at all?

No, I don't think he knew there was a real bullet in the gun, do you?

I don't know what he knew.

Oh, no.

I think this is like literally a horrible, horrible accident.

And like, he's probably traumatized.

I don't think he's responsible at all.

Like, I don't think I would compare these two situations at all.

I just keep thinking about both of them in tandem because they're also just happening at the same time.

Right, and it's like a death involving a celebrity.

Yes, and it's just just interesting to see the way that other people are talking about it too.

I see what you're saying, but I think they're so different.

Like, I don't think they are, they are so different.

I'm not saying that they're exactly the same, like tit for tat, but just it's there's kind of similar circumstances.

Because you're saying you didn't know out, you didn't think for one second Alec Baldwin knew there was a blood.

I'm not saying he did or he didn't, but there were people who are saying, like, I don't think Travis Scott knew what was happening.

Okay, even if that were the case, Travis is still responsible for the environment, the culture, like not taking proper precautions before.

Even if he had absolutely no idea, up until he was at Davin Buster's, even if he had no idea that anyone had passed away or was in danger, he is still incredibly responsible.

I agree.

I was actually talking about it yesterday with someone, and what I was saying was, I don't, I personally, and I saw people were like, you're defending Travis because you're a Kylie stan.

Kylie has nothing to do with this.

Yeah.

I personally.

don't think that Travis knew what was going on or saw what was happening or like how bad it was and continued to perform because I don't think that he's that an evil right But considering the environment he fosters at his shows, he should have been looking for it.

Right.

Or having people on the ground who are looking for it.

Yeah, no, like he should have, you take the time to make sure, like, everyone's good here.

You see something that looks like he should have been looking for it.

I don't think he saw it, but he should have.

Yeah, no, I have a hard time believing, like, people are that evil.

Like, I agree with you.

But even so, I still hold him incredibly responsible for the situation even being a remote possibility because of of the environment he fosters and the like violence he encourages.

Like, I think he's 100% responsible.

With the Alec Baldwin thing, like, I really believe, and again, we have no idea what actually happened on that set.

Like, who put the fucking real ass bullet?

Why is there even a real fucking bullet on a set?

Right.

I have no idea, but I believe

Alec Baldwin had nothing to do with it.

Like, I despise Alec Baldwin.

I don't think he's a murderer.

I don't think he had anything to do with it.

Murdering a woman with a child.

I don't think he had anything to do with a real

bullet in the gun and that this in any way was intentional but two weeks ago you killed someone accidentally and now you're at bond street no i feel that i feel that but i do think that like no i guess actually when you put it that way you're 100 right you know like so i'm not saying like uh no i mean i think that they're handling this like horribly like the tmz video on the side of the street i agree But, like, people have to eat.

So, like, you know?

Yes, but you've got to be able to do it.

Order, I agree.

I I agree.

He has every resource available to him.

Like, Fontrid is somewhere you go to, like, be spotted on Dumois.

No, literally.

So, that's why it's a little surprising.

It's a strange choice.

Yeah.

No, it's bizarre, for sure.

Like, it's a trendy place, like, with your hairstylist, for sure.

But again, they are, like, not normal.

I don't know what the fuck they're doing.

Like, they're insanely stupid.

And I despise them.

But I do think.

And again, we really don't know what happened on that set.

I do think it was a complete act.

Like, I had, maybe not accident.

Maybe someone did plant the bullet on Alec's part.

Like, I don't think he's running around murdering mothers.

Yeah.

And so just the crew member is suing Alec and the armorer for negligence after the shooting.

So that just came through.

I need a documentary on this because I'm like, I understand

the investigation is ongoing and we need to just wait for the investigation to play out because all these things that we don't know, like they should be figuring out.

Yeah.

Who brought the bullets?

Where did they even come from?

Like, if you have a fake gun on set, why would you ever need a real bullet, even remotely close?

I don't know.

And I agree.

I guess it is really tacky when there's a family mourning and you're out at Mond Street.

I feel that.

That's all I was saying.

Yeah, no, it's a full circle moment.

Like, order in.

Get a pizza.

Doesn't Hilaria love to cook?

She can't remember the

cucumbers.

Hillary.

Sorry, I did not mean to call her Hilaria.

Okay.

It goes against like, if someone in my presence calls her Hilaria, like I will not ignore it.

I did it multiple times.

Oh, shit.

I was also just reading the headline.

The article.

Like, her name is Hillary.

She is of no Spanish descent.

Like, lest we not forget.

Yeah.

Our next story.

Scott Disick has been spotted with a new woman.

I can't.

And he's approaching something that remotely looks like an age-appropriate relationship.

It's better.

What is she, 24?

She's 23, and he's 38.

Okay, the thing is, when you're 23, at least she's legal drinking age.

Legal drinking age.

And when you're 23, like, you're still a child, but you're almost, like, I was married when I was 23.

That's an interesting point.

Yeah, so, like, but again, I don't know if if I'm like the best example for like maturity and adulthood, but 23 is better, but it's still like you're 38.

Dude, a 28-year-old, like something.

You can still be 28 and really hot and tight and curvy.

Like, it's not exclusive to the 18-year-olds.

Or 25.

Brain-fully formed.

Brain-fully formed, 25.

I agree.

I think anything under 25 is questionable to some jurisdiction.

But I'm glad to see that they can go to a club together and she doesn't have to bring her fake ID.

Right.

Also, she is Brooklyn Beckham's ex.

Her name is Hannah Cross.

When I I heard that, I literally thought of the TikTok sound.

Don't you feel stupid?

You're literally dating a teenager's ex-girlfriend.

Like, it's so bizarre.

That is true.

I hadn't thought of it like that.

It's so weird.

Yeah.

Well, we'll see where this one goes.

Who is this girl?

She is a

girl.

A girl.

And she's alive.

Yeah.

I don't know.

Okay, well, she's just like pretty.

She's just being labeled as Brooklyn's ex.

Oh, that's so sad.

Yeah.

Okay, well, whatever.

23 is better, but it's still not great.

And it's just a pattern of behavior that I find so bizarre.

Yeah, I agree.

I'm not here for the pattern, but at least we're getting warmer.

Yeah.

And I think that like people, a lot of people, I think they were really put off by the Amelia thing.

Like, really, and I think it was, not that he cares, but I think it was like really bad for his image.

Like the way that that picture and just like their overall age gap, I think people were really, really put off by that.

I mean, I've been put off and I'm a huge fan of his.

Yeah.

So I think like he stepped it up a couple years like just so people wouldn't just like jump down his throat again.

Not because this is the great love of his life.

And you couldn't even just step it up a few more years.

25, like that's literally it.

I will do anything.

Like, damn, Snatchler.

Snatchler.

She's Snatcher.

She's 24.

Doesn't make that sense.

She's going on 25.

Okay.

He can call her in May.

Yeah.

May 6th, to be exact.

Okay.

Are you ready for our next story?

I am.

Yes, I am.

Lala Kent is speaking out on the Randall breakup.

She said.

Yeah, I forgot that, like, that was real.

I know.

And I want to talk about where we're at today on this.

It's been a few weeks.

Do you need to get a plane ticket?

Because are you in denial?

No, I'm not in denial.

Okay.

Let's tell you, let's talk about what she said, and then let's talk about what we'd like to see for her, okay?

And then let's project our delusions onto our podcast audience.

Stop it.

The Vanderprump Rest.

Oh, by the way, don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Oh, yeah.

The Vanderpump World Star spoke out about her breakup from the movie producer on her podcast Wednesday and said she's leaning into her role as a mother to her daughter Ocean.

She said, I take it one minute at a time because a seven-month-old can't sit around and wait for you to get over shit.

You better keep your fucking head up and do your thing.

So that's what I do.

She admitted that she'd never thought that my life would be where it is right now and that's okay, but that she's appreciative for her daughter and her book release keeping her distracted from the pain of the split.

Yes, girl, promote the book.

Yes, girlwithmodob.com slash book.

You have to be grateful for every experience because what I've been through in my life, which people have been through much crazier and traumatic things than I have been through, those people inspire me who deal with the things with grace and they come out on top, even with the hand that they were dealt.

That is such a good way of looking at things.

Like my situation like obviously sucks, but like it could be so much worse.

I'm like looking at your blessings as opposed to like your curses, I guess.

Yeah.

She's just like, has a really good head on her shoulders.

She really does.

And I feel sad that like we're here, but you know what?

She like obviously got into a relationship with someone with a lot more money than her.

And I feel like she never like got lazy.

She never let it be like her fall back.

Like she never let it get comfortable.

She's like, I know he could leave me in the way that I got him.

she was always saying that she has her own career she's got the la la makeup la la baby the book i think she has a podcast yeah where she said these things right so you know what i think it she could be in a far worse situation because i know a lot of situations like that like you get comfortable you think this is your life and then you don't work and and you have nothing left yeah so i think she's actually in a pretty good situation i would agree now do you think would you how would you feel if they got back together

fine i mean you know what?

When there's a child involved.

Crowd research.

Oh, no, I'm kidding.

I think I would feel fine mostly because there's a kid involved.

Like, if your parents can be together, like,

wouldn't you want that for some, for Ocean?

Yeah.

I just feel like, especially with the way that this season is airing, like, she couldn't do it

because of the way that people would

come for her.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

I don't know.

Like.

Even though that's not a reason and a way to live your life.

No, like, Tom and Katie have been to get through far worse, you know?

Yeah.

And we don't even know what happened, honestly.

Right.

We just saw some girls in a hotel.

Right.

He probably fucked him.

Like, let's just be realistic.

Like,

we're all adults.

It's okay.

And so, is Lala able to get past that?

Yeah.

I don't know.

But whatever you decide to do.

Would you get past that with the father of your daughter and maybe, you know, if he was financially

set?

Like, would that help?

It would help for me, for sure.

I don't know.

I hadn't thought about it as me.

Yeah.

I've only thought about it as her.

Not as actress, like a total hypothetical situation.

You just had a baby with a guy with a lot of money get the out of my face yeah and he cheats on you like while you're literally breastfeeding um but he wants to come back he says he's sorry and he has a lot of money like what do you do no i don't know money talks

just saying think about it i don't know to have like a seven month old i know you can't keep it in your pants it's like

you stand no chance no yeah people like that are I know everyone's capable of change, but like those people are not.

Yeah, no.

Like if you're literally fucking some random girl while your wife is breastfeeding your newborn baby, like you're an animal.

Yeah, you're an animal.

I agree.

So.

But how much money do you have?

Like, I need numbers, like, for real.

Though, if

Rolla got back together, I would, I do really kind of ship them.

I really do.

Especially now that we're getting so much of their relationship on the show.

It's like the first time we're seeing it.

So at the same time, I'm falling in love with them as a couple, and they're deteriorating.

That's why I forgot that they're broken up because I literally watched.

Two nights ago them having dinner at least a vanner pump.

So it's very confusing for me.

Yes, it is confusing.

But as she said, she's taking it one day at a time.

I feel like she's made no decisions.

And you know what?

Take your time.

time.

Yeah.

She'll see how she sees.

She'll see how she feels.

Yeah.

Great.

Our fifth and final story.

YouTube is removing the dislike count on all videos across its platform.

That's awesome.

YouTube announced that its decision to make the dislike count on videos private across its platform.

The decision is likely to be controversial given the extent that it impacts the public's visibility into a video's reception.

But YouTube.

No, I don't think that's true at all.

But YouTube believes the change will better protect its creators from harassment and reduce the threat of what it calls dislike attacks, essentially when a group teams up to drive up the number of dislikes dislikes a video receives.

That's like when people go to the podcast app and leave you a dump of songs.

No, I don't understand why they're hiding it.

Just get rid of it.

Right.

They say that while the dislike counts won't be visible to the public, it's not removing the button itself.

Users can still click the thumbs down button on videos to signal their dislike to creators privately.

So you can privately be, you know, be harassed.

Yes.

Wait, that's moronic.

Right.

You're not protecting anyone's mental health.

You're actually making it worse.

Like, you're making them feel more isolated.

Like,

go deal with your shame by yourself.

That's horrible.

Just get rid of it.

Right.

This is what's the problem with all these fucking apps.

Like, they do all these bullshit, like, PR stunts to actually stop harassment, and they do nothing.

Like, this is so stupid.

This is counterintuitive.

I mean, this is really, really senseless.

Like, honestly.

Just get rid of it.

Yeah.

Or don't.

Or don't.

But get rid of it.

Like, yes, you should be doing everything possible to combat

people getting harassed.

And, like, they do that to YouTubers.

Like, they'll dump tons of dislikes.

And it's just, just like bad for your brand.

Like,

get rid of it.

Yeah, this is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

You still get access to how many people dislike you, but good, no one else will know.

I guess that helps, but it helps, but it's still like the same thing of you're being attacked.

Oh my god, that is the crazy, stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life.

And the trolls do still get that, like, feeling of dislike.

Of getting to you, yeah, just get rid of it.

Yeah,

did Facebook used to have a dislike?

No, no.

They just invented the like, they invented the like, and then they gave you other emojis you could, like, ha ha.

Yeah, crying, crying, hurt, angry.

Yeah, sad.

Yeah.

Okay, yeah, that's, like, so stupid.

But this is the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life.

Like, deadass.

Yeah.

From a billion-dollar tech company.

Like, that's the best you could do to combat harassment.

And also, like, people will find other ways to let you know that you're distracted.

No, don't worry.

Like, the trolls will literally.

Climb every mountain, sail every sea to let you know that they're fat, that you're fat and they hate you.

Right.

Like, why can't they just then write a comment that says dislike?

Right, no, maybe now, like, I guess because the dislike button is anonymous, you can see who disliked it.

So, if you want to, I mean, you could always have a fake account, but like, if you want to use your no, but like your fake account is connected.

That's the thing about YouTube, it's connected to your Gmail.

So, like, if you have to be, if you want to be a fucking YouTube troll, you have to make a whole new email account, and that is dedication.

And you know what?

You're a big loser.

Like, that's it's insane dedication to troll someone on YouTube because most people are automatically logged into YouTube with their like work account.

Like, they don't make new subscriber.

Yeah, yeah, no, but I guess like disliking something was like a no strings way to troll.

Yeah.

And now you've got to put yourself out there.

You've got to put yourself out there.

And then you would know how it feels.

Literally.

And then but you don't.

Yeah.

Okay.

Cool.

I'm glad that that's that we flushed that out.

That's that on that.

That's that on that.

And that's our show.

I mean, like, I have to go to the airport.

Oh, it's so early.

Like, that's the worst.

You can come hang with Brutus, see how he felt about those Cheetos.

And I'm just going the opposite direction.

Oh, damn.

Yeah.

Brutus.

Well, we hope you have a great trip.
