S4 Ep181: All The Fall Tings: Tuesday, October 19th, 2021

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the morning toast and a happy Tuesday.

It's Duesday because Dude

is in the studio and he parallel parked it right next to me.

And again, you're being so accepting and loving of the situation because he's just trying to be close to and protective of his cousin.

I am such an accepting and loving person, period.

Like, I don't think anyone should be surprised.

Right, no, and we're not.

But I just, if anyone's listening as a podcast, like Claudia is being accepting and loving.

No, I gave up.

Like, Theo doesn't want to sit with me.

Like, he'll be back.

He'll be back.

Well, by the way, let's just get right into it because today's a sickening, the m the merch warehouse down

day.

We dropped our fall collection.

Shopify is quaking.

Everyone's quaking.

Head over to shopmorning toast.com to get all your fall essentials, your crew necks, your crop tops, your stickers, like everything.

The stickers are so cute.

Your tumblers, your t-shirts.

So I am wearing the collegiate black crop tea today.

And for like with my big belly and everything and I'm wearing a size medium So I didn't even have to oversize that much.

It's so comfortable and it goes down to like my belly button.

I don't feel so exposed.

It's like the perfect crop t-shirt.

I'm like so excited by it and I feel so free in it.

Like

it's a very breathable material and I'm just like, this is my new favorite shirt.

You look stunning.

You should wear this shirt to the party tonight.

You should and this hat to the party tonight.

I'm sipping out of my morning toast tumbler that comes in two different styles.

One is our classic logo and the other is thirst monster.

So embrace your inner thirst monster with our new tumblers.

We first have

requests for tumblers for years.

These are custom babies to make sure that they were so sickening and exactly as we wanted.

So and like we are literally saving the planet with our tumblers.

Oh, yes.

No more plastic straws.

We've got.

You have your straw in properly today.

I put my straw in properly today.

How neat is this?

There's a little stopper at the end of the straw.

I didn't know that.

Oh, I noticed it yesterday, but I just thought you were, you know.

Being my quirky self.

yeah Yeah, you're not like other girls you're not gonna use your straw like other girls certainly don't drink like other girls that's what i thought but i'm glad to see that you learned something new so i'm wearing this navy crew neck that also comes in the hunter green and i for the record wear xl in all of our crew necks so if you're looking for a size reference that a size reference like you're as gorgeous and stunning as me i would go with the with the xl but it can never hurt to size up you know yeah i wear a medium in all the crew necks because i like them to be a little roomy and now that i'm pregnant they're not roomy at all and when for my sorority crew neck I wear an extra large because I used to like want to wear that as a dress so those are my sizes medium or extra large in the shorts I wear a medium also so it's just about how you want it to fit I would say those crew necks I love are the same

people like because you've you've seen the how you during crew necks those were very thick

same as the redheads same as the redheads these crew necks are different these are more similar to like 100 beautiful stunning and smart they're a little bit more light

but they're still totally warm and perfect for fall.

We're so perfect for fall.

Some could argue we're falling into fall right now.

Yeah, no, we are all the

fall tings.

I like that.

How did you think of that?

This morning when I was writing the caption for the Instagram, I was like, go to Shop Morning Toast for all the fall tings.

I was like, all the

fall tings.

Love that.

Okay, well, the merch is out, shopmorning toast.com, not airmaids.com.

I know it's really, really confusing, but it's shop morning toast, not chanel.com.

Even though with these Luke's, we're currently stunting.

It's easy to get confused.

It is easy to get confused.

It's such sickening stuff.

So head over there, get cozy for fall.

I mean, the sweater set that's like the shorts and the long sleeve is just the best.

Like that outfit is just like begging you.

Well, not in the in the outfit, but it's begging you to enjoy a chili, not make, because you'll stay in it.

Okay, 100%.

And I, first of all, remember I was talking shit about Ben.

Like, I was 100% wrong.

He had some chili for lunch.

There There was so much left for me.

Oh.

That when I got home last night from the best night of my life, I have to tell you about it.

I want to hear all about it.

I finished the whole chili, and it was like, I said to Ben, I'm like, we need to have a rotating Tupperware of chili.

Like, it is so premium.

Like, I had scooped some tostitos.

I was having the craziest fucking heartburn in the middle of the night, though.

Like, literally ran out of bed twice to get Tums.

I had drank like some tequila and then also chili.

Like, it was not a good thing.

Oh, wow.

That's hurting my heart.

Wouldn't trade it for the world.

That's so beautiful.

I'm so glad to to see that this chili is just like filling every crevice of your heart.

I know, and like it's, it's gone now.

Will you make another one?

Can I?

Because some, there's, it's not like chili is the most delicious food, like can be served in so many different ways.

I love to consume a chili, but like the act of making a chili is also quite fun.

It's part of cultivating a vibe.

You put on a little music and like you're technically cooking, but it's like not that deep.

Yeah.

And then like you put your mood lighting on and like some candles.

It's just like it's the act of cooking a chili that's just as delicious as the chili itself.

And we're fully in chili season now.

It was in the 40s this morning.

I saw the weather snatch kept me up to date.

The weather snatch.

Oh, thank God for her.

I have to tell you about literally what was the most amazing night of my life.

Please do.

So Brian was like, I got tickets to see a drag show with Tina Berner.

Do you want to come?

And Tina Berner, I feel like I've spoken about her a lot.

She was the one who performed at Margaret Joseph's Pride Party.

We saw her.

She was amazing.

She was amazing.

She's from Drag Race, and she was booted off prematurely, like 100%.

Like she did not go as far as she should have gone.

And it was like a Monday and I was honestly just like not down.

Says she was at like 9.30.

I'm like, oh my God, I'm going to be in bed by then.

But then I was like, you know what?

I'll just go.

So we went for dinner and we went to Barracuda, which Brian says is like his favorite drags pop, but he hasn't been since before the pandemic, but they're still killing it.

And they're doing a Miss Barracuda pageant.

So for the last six weeks, they've been doing a pageant, talent competition.

We went for,

they did like a video competition and like a q a and it was like a cue pageant and in between tina berner was doing numbers and jackie i really don't know how to explain first of all like tina berner is so toasty in the sense when you think drag queens you think they lip sing

popular music which of course they do but i've never seen and i don't know if this is a trend in drag but tina burner puts together these like skits almost that use popular sounds from she was using bring it on that's what she did at margaret's party too and this was a new sound i hadn't heard so she's like doing monologues from bring it on yeah interspersed with like celine dion songs and it all's like telling a story and like these viral videos like it jackie it was so funny i was losing my mind and i was like of course i knew i literally knew everything that she was talking about she was amazing the competition was amazing and then it was like 10 30 and there was another show afterwards but i was like i really should go home i'm like let me just see this new show like see what this queen is about

Jackie.

Her name was Izzy Uncut,

and she was

unbelievable.

She did a similar thing to Tina, putting together these like really funny sounds full of music, full of monologues from popular movies, TV shows, videos.

And first of all, she did a whole skit.

Okay, so like I was like dying.

And then in between her,

in between her songs, she was like, oh my God, you're like obsessed with me.

And I'm like, no, I'm literally obsessed with you.

So then she did a song by Lady Gaga, A Million Reasons, interspersed with there could be a hundred people in a room.

And every time she said that, and all it takes is one.

She was looking at me.

It was so funny.

It was so creative.

The dancing, the singing, I was just in awe.

Like, honestly, it was like nothing I'd ever seen before.

It was unbelievable.

The place was packed.

The finale of the Miss Barracuda pageant is next Monday.

You guys, if you are around, I think you should go.

Are you going to go?

I get back from Rome that night.

So like, I'll really have to see like where my priorities lie.

There's a delay.

But it was when I told you, I think I watched drag for like four hours.

And you know what?

Ben came and he loved every minute of it.

It was so good.

Like, I haven't really seen that many drag shows in person.

I became obsessed with drag race during the pandemic.

I've probably seen drag like three times.

Yeah.

Oh, and this one just took the cake.

It was spectacular.

I'm so happy for you.

That sounds amazing.

You would have,

Jackie, you would have like, you would have have died.

It was,

I can't even, I'm speechless.

Like, it was a blending of so much pop culture, which I just didn't even expect.

Pop culture, dance, their looks, death drops, cartwheels, back handsprings in the middle of a bar.

Like, it was

the most entertaining few hours I've experienced in the last couple of years.

Wow.

It was unbelievable.

Like, and you know what's so crazy about that?

It's a free show.

It was free?

Yeah.

And so you you like take out cash and you give tips and you request songs and you support the bar.

I don't know how it works.

You have to like buy food and drinks and stuff to have a table?

No.

Wow.

No, it's literally a free show.

I was just like, I need to support.

I was like running to the ATM, running to the bar, support, support.

It's a free show.

I'm like, you couldn't pay, like, you couldn't, you should pay $1,000 for this.

It was amazing.

It's called Barracuda and it's on 22nd and 8th.

And it was amazing.

I'm sure like all like the gay New Yorkers listening to us will be like, yeah, we know.

Like, I don't, guys, I just found out.

It's unbelievable.

That's so exciting.

I'm so glad you had such a wonderful experience.

I'm extremely jealous, but I'm so happy for you.

I so wish you were there.

Like, Jackie.

It sounds like everything.

Life-changing.

They were pulling these memories out.

One of the queens did a monologue.

Do you remember that Accuview Oasis commercial?

Astigmatism?

With the two twins?

Yeah, of course.

She memorized the whole thing as both twins.

She was like, well, I've got astigmatism, but I don't.

Like, it was amazing.

Like, it was so fucking good.

So fucking funny.

Oh, premium content up the wazoo.

Wow.

Incredible.

Brian, yet again, showing me, like, what I'm missing out on in life.

Literally.

Literally.

How was your evening?

My evening was

quite the opposite.

I read all night because I started this new book, This Tenderland, which everyone says is like an amazing book.

You know, if you love crawdads, you gotta read it.

Well, I won't be reading it.

Yeah.

Do you have you read crawdads?

No, you told me I would hate it.

I don't think you would enjoy it.

It's not for everyone.

And so I finished it last night and it was so good, but it was just,

no, it was so good.

I gave it four stars.

I didn't like it as much as Dana clearly did because she gave it like a 4.9, which is like off the charts

for Dana.

It was, um, but it was like, you know, a lot.

It was a journey and it was very long, but it was so well written and it was a great story.

And I love the way that it ended.

And, and I mean, I spent like six hours last night reading it, so, you know, it was good.

And well spent.

Did you make a chili to go with it?

No.

What did you make?

I, what did I have for dinner?

Oh, we, we ordered, but I, earlier in the day, I used some of my extra Caesar and made me, this Caesar salad.

And I've also been making grilled cheeses, trying to make them like more premium with like the mayo.

I know, like, what?

You know that, like, the key to a good grilled cheese, I know it has nothing to do with the taste because you don't taste it, is to put a little mayo on the outside, and that gives it the crisp.

Or butter.

No, it's like mayo.

You're kidding.

So, like, I had fresh brio.

You had mayo?

Yeah, but you don't taste it.

It just makes it really crispy.

I'm going to puke.

You're going to be okay.

I do think I've probably had grilled cheeses that have mayonnaise on it.

Yeah.

Like from diners and stuff.

Yeah, it's just like the best way to get the crisp.

I'm cool.

So I've really been working on my grilled cheese game.

The first one was too burnt.

The second one was too cheesy.

Maybe today's the day I get it right.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Using potato bread?

Brioche.

Potato bread is so divine.

Yeah, but I got a fresh loaf.

She's so Emily Marico.

Do you know what that means?

The salmon.

Yeah.

But she's also just like an overall lifestyle wellness cooking farmer's market girly, constantly slicing her own bread.

Oh, interesting yeah i was slicing my own bread putting her herbs in water like what does that do i don't even understand but you you should really watch her videos i think it'll inspire you because you're in this very much like homemaking i think they're just like nesting yeah yeah watch emily marico she's but then i think i would just like feel like insufficient like i don't have herbs i use like dried ones from the can no totally and she's like all this gorgeous tupperware that she like stores her things from the farmer's market and i'm like where do you even get these tupperware you gotta go to tupperware party that's so true

I had one more question I wanted to ask you when you were talking about your book.

And so I'm gonna start something new.

I've been on like a reading kick.

Oh, and I tried the new Kindle because Zach has the Kindle Oasis, so I just snagged it for a read.

And it's really, really, it's really nice, but it's not worth like, you don't have to buy one, but like now it's like, maybe I should just stick with that one.

It's clearly a superior product.

It's pretty big.

It's nice.

And I do think I was probably reading more because the page is bigger.

No, I actually love making my font enormous five words per page.

Yeah, and then I'm just like tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.

Wow, I'm reading so fast.

Tap, tap, tap.

Yeah.

But then, like, your hand gets, you need to get the clicker.

I know, by the way, it's not even that my hand gets hurt.

I'm like, I'm getting comfortable.

And I have to like move my hand.

You need the clicker.

Yeah, I do.

The clicker works, by the way.

I finally found a Bluetooth Kidno remote.

No, it's not Bluetooth.

It's just a Kindle remote, and it works.

And I'll link it again on my Instagram because it's what we've been asking for.

Yeah.

I can't believe it's here.

No, it's okay.

And it works.

Looks like we made it

oh god we've yeah we are we sing two different songs which one did you sing I sing the um

looks like yeah we made

look how far we've come my baby and what do I sing and then looks like we made it

that's funny who sings that one I don't fucking know the Beatles okay

Aerosmith okay

one of them anyways so so that's all that's new with me.

I mean, we have a lot to talk about today.

I would love to.

It's your toasters day.

I know.

I would love to delay the stories as long as possible because

there's one that just

it's hard to remain optimistic.

Oh, no.

Oh, yeah.

Well, if you want to talk about it, you know what I was singing this morning?

Where the fuck is Brian Laundrie?

Like, why can't people find him?

And where's Dog the Bounty Hunter?

Like, get on it.

I don't know.

What is going on?

Like, there are people convinced that, like, his parents are, like, actually hiding him, like, beneath their garden, which, like, I don't think it's true.

But really, how hard could it be to find one bald man?

I don't know.

I mean, I feel like if his parents were hiding him, do they not have a warrant for his parents' house?

I don't know.

Somebody took a drone over their backyard and saw the garden and is like, there's a bunker beneath.

Oh, my God.

But, like, where is he?

Like, I just don't feel like it's that hard to find someone, especially when everyone knows what he looks like.

That's like trying to find Kim Kardashian now.

Like, we all know what he looks like.

Yeah, that's true.

We've got a good story about Kim today.

She's solving crimes.

Yeah, it's a really crazy story.

Oh, at the Met?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right, let's get into it.

Let's get right into it, because without further ado, who's right here just being like the perfect nephew?

Couldn't ask for anything more.

I'm so far, so close, yet so far away.

I've never missed Theo more than I do right now.

He's sending love your way.

Without further ado, and talk about ado.

Here are the fast eyes stories.

Like, without further ado, and without further talk about ado.

Oh, I got it.

okay okay here are the fast eye 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 Allbirds.

We're settling into fall, you guys.

Life is picking back up again.

And these days, staying comfortable is at the top of everybody's list, including ours.

And that's where Allbirds wool runners come in.

They're super soft, they're itch-free, and they're naturally durable ZQ-certified merino wool.

So it's the most sustainable wool that you can get.

So you feel comfortable wearing the wool runners, but you also feel good about your decision to wear them too, because they're totally sustainable.

They're super stylish.

I mean, everyone is wearing Allberts these days.

I'm obsessed with my Alberts.

I've been wearing them to like work out for years, but I just got a fresh pair and I went for a walk last week and it was just such a premium experience.

Walking on clouds.

Walking on clouds.

Katy Perry said it best.

I'm walking on air tonight.

I'm walking on air.

Walking on the hood.

So Allberts is a carbon-neutral company thanks thanks to sustainable practices like using natural materials and purchasing carbon offsets.

So again, they're just a fabulous company that look fabulous, feel fabulous, and everyone's wearing them.

So the name on everybody's lips is Allbergs.

Wool Runners at allbirds.com.

You're missing out.

It's so amazing.

The name on everyone's lips.

what's actual

the name it's not it's blessed no no it's what is that like yay the name on everyone's lips it's it's gonna be roxy thank you roxy from um erica jane's play that she wrote exactly okay first story you guys people are saying that la la and randall are done after three years of engagement but i heard that you actually have a different source saying something else yeah no i definitely have heard some other things so i'll share that But, you know, page six is reporting that it's over for Lala and Randall.

The Vanderpump rural star left her fiancé and is staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel with their seven-month-old daughter, Ocean.

That's so sad.

After the movie produced, Sarah allegedly cheated on her in Nashville, a source exclusively confirmed to page six.

The source said Randall always lives a double life.

He lives the life of a husband or boyfriend, and then he lives the life of a serial partier and then goes on a bender.

Reps for the couple didn't respond to page six's comments.

So I do want to say, like, I'm not trying to be in denial, but I do think it's worth noting, like, this is, page six is reporting this based on a source.

Like, Lala hasn't said anything.

Randall hasn't said anything.

It's not a confirmation.

And they've both been posting on social media, like, Lala got a pair of, you know, Jordans for Ocean, and she was posting them.

So it's not like they've gone silent, and they also haven't confirmed this.

So even though it's probably true, you know, all signs are pointing towards truth.

There's like a...

Tiny, tiny grimace of hope.

There is a tiny grimace of hope.

And maybe like they're not together right now.

Maybe they will get back together.

I did wind up seeing the photos.

I do think they can be explained.

Maybe that was a business deal.

Maybe that was a business deal.

They were going to do a wine together and they wanted to talk about it at the hotel in Nashville.

Maybe all of them just happened to be on the same floor in like the hotel.

You know, stranger things have happened, but it's really disappointing.

And I mean, you know,

if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, then maybe Randall did just cheat on Lala.

And I'm sure she probably also has information that we don't have.

Like

whoever took that picture and like sent it around the internet probably also DM'd her and and was like, oh, and I also took this video and this and that.

The only thing that I don't really feel like tracks in this story is that, like, this is so classic, Randall.

He has two lives, and he's a serial partier.

Well, like, he's the one who really encouraged Lala to get sober.

I don't really, I mean, obviously, I don't know him at all, but I don't really see him being the serial partier.

He might have a problem staying faithful, but I don't really see that.

I agree.

And

based on what she shared, like, I think when they're together, they're pretty much sober, but who knows knows what he does when he's not with her in terms of like

extramarital affairs and also like drinking and partying.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I mean, this is just disappointing.

Also, like, the mother and the child really do get the house.

Like, Randall should be at the house.

I was thinking that.

And also, he's out of town.

So,

he was in Nashville.

Maybe then, like, he fucked someone in the house and she doesn't want to be there.

No, but he has his kids now.

Oh, so maybe they're at the house?

Yeah, so, like, he's not going to, maybe she, it's not going to displace them in, you know, because of him can i just talk about your nails for a moment they're so long they're literally look like what kylie pays like a thousand dollars per nail for like they look like acrylic those are your natural nails these are my natural nails on prenatal vitamins um yes so this that middle one on your left hand yeah is the craziest fucking claw i've ever seen in my life it's crazy but look at this stub it broke but you know what okay so this broke but it was actually not a natural break because remember when i cut my finger with a knife cutting a bagel a few weeks ago?

No, of course a bagel.

So I cut into my nail a little bit and it was, it had been glued like when I went to get a manicure and then it just gave up.

So I do think this nail, this little stub would have stood a chance if not for that.

But then also like this one's starting to fray.

Like they are starting to, I crumble.

Like when I got a manicure last week, I was like, please don't.

I was like, don't cut.

I'm just going to file.

I want to see how long they can go for.

I think they are starting to get too long.

But it is crazy how, like, the difference is, is now they're strong because because before prenatals, my nails would grow, but they always create on the side, yeah.

In the middle of the nail, the most painful crack, and so I had to get rid of them.

I don't have those cracks now.

Can I ask you a question?

And I would love to hear other people's input on this, like, just a personal preference.

If you have long nails, whether they're real or fake, no, let's talk about real.

You have real nails, they're super long, you finally got them to a good spot, and one of them breaks.

Do you cut all of them or you just leave the broken one?

So, I think that I will, I'm not going to cut them all down to stub size, but after the stub incident I am gonna cut them because I think it was like a warning like these nails you don't want them all to have like but I'm just saying not when you're pregnant like I know a lot of people like they have a philosophy with their nails like if one of them breaks they all go down and we start from scratch which I think is fucking nuts no if one usually if one of them is breaks you're on your own a hundred percent this like now

This is the us.

But I know a lot of people who will use that as like, all right, time to start fresh with the nails.

We're just going to cut them all and start growing again, which I just think is such a waste.

If two or three break, then we're starting fresh.

Fine.

Yeah.

Just thought I'd I'd bring that up.

Yeah, no, they are really crazy.

I was trying to share with everyone on my Instagram, like, how wild it is, but I also felt like the pictures didn't do it justice.

Are you getting hairy anywhere?

Isn't that also what those vitamins do?

Well, I did just germinate my face.

Not too much.

You got a beard?

No, but I had more peach fuzz than ever.

Really?

Yeah.

But I also hadn't done it like in a year.

But it doesn't make you hairier, but I do think my hair is growing faster.

That's why when I cut my hair short two weeks ago, I was like, I don't care.

It's going to be long again soon.

And like, can just a regular person take prenatals?

Yes.

Will I start to grow a baby?

No, they're really good for you.

And so I always like, people would always say that, like, you should take them before you get pregnant.

You should keep taking them after you give birth.

But you know what?

They're so big and gross.

Are they swallow or chewy?

You can do chewables.

The chewables don't have as much vitamin content as the swallows.

Like how big?

It's the biggest pill I think I've ever taken.

Ooh, I would gag.

I used to gag every single time.

Now it's gotten much more pleasant.

I don't know what the difference is.

Maybe I'm just like less nauseous.

Maybe you're just getting used to this horse pillow.

Your throat's getting bigger.

Maybe.

But yeah, no, it's a crazy thing.

Happy for you.

Thank you.

With my literal nude ass

stubs.

Remember when you used to get fake nails?

I know, you know, in my time hop they come up and like I loved it so much.

It was like a three-hour process.

Like I just can't sit like that anymore.

Like I have a job.

Me neither.

I mean nobody has crazier nails than the snatcher like not her real fucking long nails not people who have long nails like you who look like they have acrylic nails are literally the people in the world i am most jealous of and if you have long skinny fingers like that is just like a whole other level like i want to be you like how does it feel to live my dream No, the snatcher's nails are crazy because not only do they stay long, like they don't break.

She's tough as nails, that snatcher.

She's a lizard.

She also takes the time every week to get like a detailed manicure.

So she has like the perfect hands.

And then she's always wearing her cool rings and things.

And it's just like, hey, it's a snatcher.

No, like, there are two types of girls in this world: like, long, skinny fingers, short, fat fingers.

And

it's important that you come to terms with which one you are because there's really nothing you can do about it.

It's true.

And I do think sometimes, like, when you try and like dress up your short, fat fingers with.

It makes it worse.

Yeah.

You're drawing more attention to like the big, meaty hands in front of you.

No,

my fingers are very slim.

You could say that, yes.

But I don't feel like I have a slim hand.

You do.

You have a slim hand.

I just want to say for how fat I am like in my body, my hand could be worse.

So let me see it.

Let me see it.

It's not terrible.

But like for me, I find that this part of the hand is so ugly, like in general.

All right, you're getting really specific.

You're like that scene in Mean Girls.

I have really bad bath in the morning.

The bottom half of my hand is not attractive.

Like what?

I'm just saying, if we're if we're talking about hands, like, no, but you know what?

I did find really interesting on the Railhouse Wise of Beverly Hills Reunion when they were like the first five minutes like, all right, everyone, get to get in your seats, and they're all like calling out for the hair and makeup.

And someone was like, Can you get me my hand makeup?

Yeah, I think it was Arena.

Yeah, old lady hands can be quite jarring.

Yeah, I could use some hand makeup sometimes.

Yeah, of course, the KKW

Foundation.

Anyways, back to Lala and Randall,

wishing their family the best, hoping they can work through this.

Hoping they can work through this, not giving up hope, but

it's not a good situation.

It's not.

It's not.

So we'll leave it at that for now.

But in some more positive couple news, Beyonce and Jay-Z are cozying up in a romantic ad for Tiffany's inspired by breakfast at Tiffany's.

Have you seen it?

I saw it at the store.

Yeah, the store in New York is like undergoing renovation, so the whole building is just one big ad.

And they just recently changed the ad to this new Beyonce and Jay-Z.

It was Anya Taylor Taylor Joy, who was also looking gorgeous.

Also looking gorgeous, but this ad is everything of the sort.

It comes with like an accompanying video where they're playing on the Breakfast at Tiffany's theme.

It's a short film called Date Night that shows the loving, playful side of their relationship, inspired by the New York City backseat taxi scenes from the 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany's.

The video begins with a glam Beyoncé sitting in the back of a Rolls-Royce, applying red lipstick, and some jaw-dropping Tiffany and Co.

jewels.

I have to say, this is a sickening campaign.

I actually like, when you live in New York, there's campaigns everywhere.

There's ads everywhere.

I almost got hit by a car.

Like, I was very struck by it.

It's, first of all, it's such a big billboard because the whole building is wrapped in like a scaffolding while they're under construction, but they turn the whole thing for this photo shoot.

It is so jarring and it's so glamorous.

It's so rich.

It's really a work of art.

It really is.

And the harking back to breakfast at Tiffany's when it's in the

Tiffany's.

Never hurts.

Never hurts.

No, it's a 10 out of 10 on the ad scale.

Like, ad week is quaking.

They really crushed it.

Oh my god, I lost my triangle.

What were you gonna sing?

Maybe I'll lend you mine.

No, no, no, no, no.

That's fine.

No.

I'll lend you mine if you tell me what you're gonna do.

I wanna surprise you.

Okay.

And like, you really can't guess it?

Hannah said,

What about breakfast at Tiffany's?

She said, I think i remember the film that has i recall i think if you didn't listen to that song like on your way to school that and like i don't wanna be by gavin degra

you weren't living like as you fall asleep on the bus and like wake up and then it's like

hannah said what about breakfast at tiffany she said who sings that song Deep Blue Something.

I don't know.

Deep Blue Something.

No, it clearly.

I don't know.

Deep Blue Something.

That's a name.

thing.

Are you sure?

Deep blue something.

Okay, yeah, that song.

I mean, I know the song.

Give me my fucking thing back.

I think Theo ate my triangle.

No, I'm sure it just fell through the couches.

I know.

I'm so glad that song resonated with you in such a deep way.

It did it not with you.

No, it's a good song.

Like, I know it.

It's a good song.

I wasn't, like, listening.

That wasn't my bus jam.

I feel like if I called Olivia right now and I'd be like, what does this song remind you of?

I think me and Olivia had the same life experience with that song.

I don't think so.

Should I call her?

Yeah, call her.

See if she picks up.

FaceTime or regular?

Do FaceTime.

Just let her know she's on a show.

She recorded, yeah.

You know, not to say anything.

Oh, she fucking sent me to decline.

She, oh, okay.

Hurtful.

Well, I'll get back to you on that.

So, what song do you kind of associate with like early mornings getting, you know, to start with?

For me, it's all Fallout Boy Panic at the Disco.

Oh, no.

Yeah.

And I think for Olivia, it's more in that vein, too.

Because Olivia and I are closer in age and have this

more shared experience.

It's like I got an iPod and I remember that's when I started listening to it on the way to school.

And Olivia was the one with the computer and

lime wire.

Lime wire.

Like I didn't know

whenever I wanted music, I had to be like, Olivia, will you put music on my iPod?

And so we just listened to whatever she was downloading.

Yeah, so literally all the music I listened to growing up was shit you guys were listening to.

Oh, that's an interesting point.

No, because also like I have my own computer, so I wasn't listening to Olivia's playlist.

So I was 100%.

Maybe.

I see what you're saying.

Wow, I've actually never really felt so old, like talking about like my iPod and having to have Olivia put it like her LimeWire on it.

I know, but it was.

And like Napster.

No, Napster.

Like, yes, Napster was before LimeWire, but it was also like before you.

Like, we really used LimeWire a lot.

LimeWire.

But also, that was like illegal, right?

LimeWire?

Yes.

So like

we didn't use it.

No, allegedly.

Allegedly, when you would also download music, sometimes you would get like really janky songs.

And I feel like I've said this before.

Yes, we did.

That had like stamps on it.

So like when I whenever I hear the song,

Who Who Says You Can't Get Stoned?

Turn off the lights and the telephone.

Me in my house alone.

Who says I can't get stoned?

John Mayer.com.

Yeah.

They had like weird

commercials in there.

They called it a watermark for watermark.

Yeah.

Yeah.

God, I missed my iPod.

I know.

Like my first iPod was literally the most important thing in my life.

And iPod Nano, that was my first, like, the little black one.

Before like iPod Touches and all that stuff, like which were sick, obviously.

And which morphed into the iPhone.

Right.

But when it was just you and the pod.

What was your first iPod?

The

white one with the scroll.

Oh, like the circly.

Yeah, yeah, like the OG.

That's OG.

Yeah.

No, I got the nano.

Yeah.

And then they had the iPod Shuffle, the little clip one that you could clip to your jacket.

Yeah, that's stupid.

That's Mitch.

Yeah, Margaret, that one.

That's a Smitch one.

That one stuck because it had no screen.

Like, you couldn't see what you were listening to.

Yeah, but it was like, you know, it was perfect for like the younger siblings.

Yeah.

Because they don't deserve like all the bells and whistles.

iPods are so iconic.

I know.

And the music just like sounded better from them.

Totally.

Good times.

Good times.

It's a pleasure.

Okay, our next story is a little art, crime, Kim Kardashian news.

She'll solve any crime by dinner time.

Kim Kardashian's Met Gala photo helped solve looted gold Egyptian coffin case.

So somebody had stolen the the coffin?

Yeah, and they sold it to the Met under false papers, and then Kim took a picture with it at the Met Gala, and then they like realized that that's where it was.

Oh, so somebody didn't steal it from the Met.

When the Met purchased it, it was stolen goods.

I believe so.

I'm going to read through the details because, you know, this is involved.

It's literally Ocean's 12, 13, whatever, whatever the one that was at the Met Gala.

Eight.

Eight.

In a wild turn of events, a photo of Kim Kardashian rocking a gold dress at the 2018 Met Gala, I believe her best Met Gala look ever.

And Claudiasha agrees.

Has led to something quite unexpected, solving a mystery.

A viral snap that showed her posing next to the coffin of Ned

Monks has led to the conclusion of a long-running criminal case involving the golden artifact.

In a recent episode of journalist Ben Lewis's podcast, Artbust, you just love to see like podcasts making news.

Podcasts making news, Kim making news, art making news.

The podcast is called Art Bust, Scandalous Stories of the Art World.

He dives into how the thorny.

Are there that many that they need to just start a podcast?

For sure.

Like,

there's so much art.

Drama.

Drama, crime, and it's been around for so.

I'm sure there's crazy stories, so many forgeries.

Hold on.

There's so many stories.

I'm sure.

I'm sure Ben has plenty of content.

He dives into how the photo played a role in catching the thieves who stole the coffin and sold it to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for $4 million by using fake documents.

Damn.

Before that, the coffin, which date backs to the first century BC, was dug up from the Almenia region of Egypt in 2011 during that year's revolution.

The Manhattan Assistant DA was notified of Kim's photo standing next to the coffin by an anonymous tipster.

Not the DA.

The DA was notified of that the coffin was.

Was it Raphael Barba?

Who's that?

From

Marlautter, yeah.

He's the best DA in town.

He was notified of Kim's photo.

The DAA was sent Kim's photo by an anonymous tipster in the Middle East who originally received the image from a gang of pillagers.

So Kim's photo is going around.

The informant was irritated that they were never paid for unearthing the coffin seven years before.

By the time he talked to the informant, the DA had already opened up a jury investigation.

But so, what was it about Kim's photo that was like the last missing piece of this investigation?

I guess they didn't realize that it ended that it turned up at the Met.

Oh, those people who sold it.

The people who were looking for

it.

Yeah.

Okay, this is, I need a film about this because it's not making sense.

Worry to listen to the podcast.

I'm sure he does a better job of explaining it.

Just all I know is Kim is.

Kim saved the day.

Yeah.

it does give me like ptsd though like all these gangs like looking at kim and like kim and her pictures like leave kim alone you know and did that come to mind for you what like all these like gangs crime gangs like who would have thought like kim's just taking like an innocuous picture of the met because she's like dressed similarly and it's not even like a like a fabulous picture it's like blurry i hadn't even seen it me neither because it's not a good one it's probably like went right into her into her trash like you know delete yeah yeah it's like blurry and there's like a beam of light in the middle.

Like, it's not a gorgeous photo at all.

That is so crazy.

I wonder what she thinks about this.

You know, I know, like, does this stuff get back to her?

I think something like this would, because it's a very serious thing, and it's also pretty crazy and cool.

You know, but I'm sure not every, you know, she doesn't read every, she doesn't have Google Alerts for herself.

No, because her phone would break.

I just want to say, I have Google Alerts on for us, like, the morning toast.

You're the most boring.

Literally, the morning toast Google alert is one of the most painful things to read every morning.

Try avocado with your morning toast.

French toast recipe.

I don't have Google Alerts for the toast then because I only have Google Alerts for myself and I'm the most boring least famous person ever.

No, same.

It's once a year.

Nothing comes out.

Nothing comes out.

Once a year, and it's full of lies.

Allegedly.

Yeah, for sure.

So anyways, good on Kim.

Like, love to see crimes being solved.

Before dinner time.

Before dinner time.

Are you ready for our next story?

I think it's news I don't know how you're going to feel about.

I think you'll feel good, but I also think you'll have something to say.

Well, that's what I came here to do.

Netflix's To All the Boys franchise will be getting a spin-off series titled XO Kitty, starring The Little Sister, who's played by Anna Cathcart.

Netflix is expanding its hit To All the Boys I've Love Before franchise with a brand new entry.

The streaming giant announced on Monday that it has picked up a 10-episode order of a new young adult series titled XO Kitty, which is a spin-off to the popular movies, trilogy of films that were

previously released.

The new show will center around the character of Kitty Song Covey, who's played by Anna Cathcart.

You guys might also know her from Descendants.

Oh, really?

She plays Drizzy.

Yeah.

Oh, well, let me say this.

I definitely have something to say.

Because I have to say, probably the one complaint I had in the movie was that that sister was really annoying.

And she had too much of a role.

And I just didn't enjoy her.

But having said that, will I be be watching this show?

No.

Is it for me?

No.

So, like, maybe the young kids, like, who watched that movie, who are literally 15 years younger than me, but also like the movie, maybe they were like, you know, drawn.

She's our queen.

Yeah.

So I think maybe this is not a show for me.

But I just, like, if I had to make a spin off of anything, I honestly would give it to like

either two people.

Like.

John Corbett ends up with his neighbor, right?

I never saw the third one.

And then it could be like a Nancy Myers movie.

Like he finds a nice woman across the street.

That could be one.

Or, you know, who's like a really undervalued character in the franchise is, I can't remember anyone's names.

It's been so long.

Laura Jean's friend, who's Cousins with the Bully?

Yes.

She was like this wild.

Oh, yeah.

Like, she was this like wild gal.

Like, I don't know.

I would watch a series.

Her name is like

Chris.

Chris.

Chris.

Yeah.

I think she would be amazing.

Like, she's like,

but I don't know.

Maybe they're trying to skew younger people.

Yeah, no, I don't think they have a problem with, you know, getting the John Corbett demo to Netflix.

They should do a Nancy Meyers spin-off, John Corbett, and, you know, how like they blend their families.

It's called Blend Tramps.

Blended two by Nancy Myers.

Yeah, no, I agree.

I thought you would like this news because it's like more to all the boys, which you love, but then you would also feel

meh about it because, you know, is it the best premise?

I'm not sure.

No, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

It'll be good.

But it's not for you.

No, it's not for me.

And that's okay.

But you know what?

You know what what it's for?

It's for the campers.

It's for the campers.

But did you see that they released a few photos from The Summer I Turned Pretty?

No.

So Jenny Han like launched the Twitter account for the series.

Jenny Han wrote to All the Boys I Love Before, and then she also wrote this other sickening trilogy, which is actually made for children.

Like I read all three books in actually one day.

But it was so adorable.

This like teen romance.

It was so sweet.

And Amazon bought it and they've cast everyone and they're the kids are just the kids are like quaking.

The kids are like good looking.

It's on Twitter.

We've gotten like a few sneak peeks.

I'm very excited about that.

I'm excited for you.

I'm just trying to find pictures, but I didn't go to the Twitter.

I didn't read the books.

You didn't?

No.

No.

Because you said that, like, if you felt old reading them.

Yeah, I guess.

And you said it wasn't.

Yeah.

It was so sweet, though.

I'm sure it was.

Oh, when that guy like touched her hair in the car, I just like couldn't.

It was so sweet.

I literally like consumed every book in a day.

Yeah.

It's so good.

Maybe I'll watch a show, but I'm not going to read the books.

Yeah, I'm sure the show will be cute or it'll be like really teeny bopper and I'll feel stupid.

Yeah.

Anything goes.

Anything can happen.

Anything goes.

Wow, I'm feeling really annoying and like show tune.

I think it's like

yeah, like the inspiration that the drag queens like left on my soul.

I think that's a really good influence, you know?

A hundred percent.

Are you ready for a fifth and final story?

No, I'm actually not.

Oh my god.

Okay, get up and look for your thing.

Get up?

Yeah, like just look in between the couches.

If it's not there, then I'll play and you'll sing.

And also, this gives you guys.

Oh, amazing.

This gives you guys time to lower the volume if you have a sleeping baby or dog or self or husband.

It's the final story.

It's been the best part of my day.

Truly.

I want you to know I'm literally sweating from having to stand up.

It was worth it.

Is it worth it?

Oh my god, I'm being really annoying.

It was worth it.

Also, the fifth and final story is brought to you by Brush.

Do you care?

I do care because I love my

What is Bruce?

It is the official toothbrush of the Morning Toast, the best electric toothbrush out there right now

and the most affordable because a lot of electric toothbrushes have the absolute audacity to cost over $200, which is absolutely insane.

But Bruce is super affordable.

It gets the job done.

It's gorgeous.

They come in sickening colors.

They have amazing accessories.

It comes with six unique modes to customize your brushing experience.

The battery life lasts four weeks.

It comes with a magnetic charging stand and a compact travel case.

They also offer a subscription program, so never forget to change your brush head again.

Bruce will ship you a new replacement head every six months, so you're never stuck using a worn-down brush head.

The design is very sleek.

They have a modern, aesthetically pleasing design that comes in trend-driven seasonal colors, and it looks great on your bathroom counter.

We've got $15 off your Bruce toothbrush kit and the refill plan when you use the promo code toast at bruce.com slash toast.

That's $15 off using promo code toast at bru Sh.com slash toast code toast.

Thank you, Claudia.

It's a pleasure.

Okay, our fifth and final story is a little more content news for the campers and also for us because Addison Rae will be starring in a Snapchat show about returning to her Louisiana roots.

Addison Ray, one of TikTok's biggest creators, is going to star on her own show on Snapchat.

Addison Ray Goes Home will document the influencer actor's trip to Louisiana, where she grew up, her first time since moving back to LA,

since moving moving to her first time back since moving to LA,

to pursue her entertainment career.

In the unscripted series, Addison will reveal a more personal side than fans have ever seen before, according to Snap.

The series is scheduled to premiere in 2022 and is being produced by Maven.

So I want to say, I think conceptually, this is an amazing idea for a show.

There's, you know, we know Addison as the megastar, but literally two years ago, she was a college student.

Like, she's just a regular girl.

I would love to see her in her hometown.

But like, Snapchat, really, first of all, like, who the fuck is watching that?

Second of all, Addison was just in a Netflix movie.

Like,

this should be like a D'Amelio show thing or like a YouTube original, like something.

Like, Snapchat.

I mean, I guess like her teeny bopper fans, like, they do love Snapchat, but I don't really think people are watching that long-term, long-form content on Snapchat.

I agree.

I don't think it's going to be that long.

I'm sure it's like a very short 15 minutes sort of series.

And I'm sure they're paying her so much money.

Yeah.

You know, like

it's not ideal for us because I don't want to watch it on Snapchat.

Like, I would rather watch it on YouTube.

YouTube?

Or like YouTube?

Yeah.

If she was trying to be like a digital gal.

But I think this is just

an easy

job for Addison.

I think for a while when we used to report on everything Addison did, like every step she took was like the biggest deal because all of this was so new.

So when she did Ida and Beauty and then she did the Netflix.

I think that

every choice she made had like a huge impact on like where her career was going to land.

And now she's like a bona fide celebrity superstar, if you will.

So she can do things like this that are like not as no one's even gonna notice it honestly It's just like a drop This is just a press release and it's a paycheck.

It's a paycheck for sure.

So I mean, I don't think I'll be downloading Snapchat to watch it, but um

I would if it was elsewhere, but I do feel like this like is a missed opportunity because the concept of the show is actually very good.

Yeah, and I'm sure the show will be really good.

Like everyone loves to compare her to Brittany, like two Louisiana girls.

Like I just think that her backstory like actually probably is really interesting.

Margo told me, and I listened to like the first 10 minutes of her very first podcast episode with her mom.

Margo kind of gave me a synopsis of it because like I just couldn't listen to it.

But they have a very, they had a very interesting and kind of tumultuous life like before all of this happened.

So I would actually love a real show like this, but not on Snapchat.

Yeah, I agree.

Well, it's not over yet, you guys, because those were the fast five stories.

And while I didn't feel you needed to know them, I do feel good knowing them.

I agree.

There's no harm in knowing them.

Absolutely not.

Today is Tuesday, which means means it's Dear Toasters, which is our advice segment we do every Tuesday.

And if you ever want to write in, get some advice from your favorite gals, your favorite gal pals,

deartoasters at gmail.com is the email.

You can write in about anything, and we will always keep it anonymous.

As we do today, we have a few submissions, so I would love to share them with you if that's okay.

I would love to hear what everyone's up to.

Hi.

This is someone else, not me.

Sorry, I didn't transition well.

All right, first up.

Thank you.

Hi.

Congrats, Jackie, on the Bebe.

Longtime fan and listener of you both.

I am currently pregnant with my first girl.

My husband, Michael, and I are thrilled for this blessing.

We always knew that when and if we have a son, we are going to name him Michael with a J middle name and call him MJ.

My immediate family has always known this.

Who stole it?

Yeah.

Who stole the name?

My sister,

who is not married but has a longtime boyfriend whose name also starts with an M, texted me randomly at 11 p.m.

at night that when she has a boy, she's...

He is going to be MJ.

Your sister sounds delusional.

I would be remiss if I didn't tell you that that I got the biggest pit.

I couldn't believe she had the audacity to text me that randomly.

Am I overreacting?

I knew I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch, but this just seems like such a slap in the face for my sister.

If you guys were in the situation, would Jackie be annoyed?

Sincerely, a disappointed sea stir.

Well, I just think it's worth noting, first of all, you are pregnant.

Your sister has a long-term boyfriend, but is not pregnant.

So you will get the name MJ.

No, but she's having a girl, and that's what I'm saying.

Oh, I didn't put that together.

That's what she wants to name a boy, so she still has to save it.

So in all this time of, you know, her having the girl and then whenever she gets pregnant again, like the sister was the sister could slide in.

I didn't, I didn't see that it was a girl.

If this was like someone in my family and there was a name that like everyone knew I wanted and I planned on and then like some sister swooped in and was like, I would just be like, what the fuck?

You're joking, right?

But also

there's a difference because we have a bunch of names in our family that we we like love as family names.

Yeah.

So whoever's pregnant gets to choose from the family name.

Yeah.

But if this is an original name that this girl came up with, no one's allowed to take it.

Yeah.

I agree.

And that's why you should never say your original name idea out loud, ever, Shayla.

You should be able to trust your sisters.

Totally.

But still, Shayla.

But this is a betrayal.

I mean, if she does.

It's a betrayal of the highest degree.

If she's sister betrayal.

If she does wind up betraying you in this way, like say, you know, a year, year and a half, like she has a son before you and she names him MJ, like whenever you do have a son, fucking name him MJ.

Like.

Yeah.

Also, I just want to throw one thing out there because just, I wanted to let you know that, like, personally, like, my first reaction to the name MJ, like, was Michael Jackson.

So I just.

Oh, no.

Okay.

Mine was Mercedes Javid.

Oh, that's an amazing namesake.

I'm naming my child.

Shot it.

Mercedes-Javid.

No, Miss Steela.

So, like, that way, if you want to, you could name your daughter MJ.

What about Michaela Jay?

Michaela J.

Michaela J.

But MJ for a girl.

Oh, Mercedes Javid.

Mercedes Javid is normalizing like everything for me right now.

Right?

Yeah, MJ for a girl.

Take it.

Like, for real.

And Michaela, I mean, is the most beautiful name.

And there's, take it from us, the possibilities for nicknames are endless.

Endless.

Kayla.

Michaela's like become my favorite name of all time in the history of names.

And so I think you should really consider this.

And then you could also call her Kayler.

And then

Kayla, Kayla Swift,

her Royal Kayla.

KKK.

Oh, no.

Oh, my God.

Sorry.

Are you okay?

I was just trying to be like,

no.

Oh, my God.

So sorry.

Absolutely not.

Let's move on.

Jesus.

Consider Michaela.

And if you're, if you, if you're gonna, if you say no to that suggestion, I understand that's fine.

You know, it's not for everyone.

No, you want to get offended.

Like, the less Michael's there are.

And your sister does go through with the betrayal, then you should

just still name your son MJ.

And you know what?

I'm feeling so kind of like upset by this betrayal.

I wrote a song.

You betray.

It's original.

Betrayed me.

And I know that you'll never feel sorry

for the way I hurt

You talk to MJ I'm still working on some of the lyrics, but that's pretty much like the gist of it.

What do you think?

I think it was pretty disappointing like

Because it's not an original song.

What how could you say that?

It's a real song

right now.

It's a real song.

Who sings that?

Olivia Rodrigo?

I don't know.

I literally just wrote that song.

You think Olivia Rodrigo, that's how good you think my song was?

You think Olivia Rodrigo wrote it?

And then the minute you had to improvise, you ran out of words.

And I know that she'll never fail.

Okay, whatever.

Yes, it is an Olivia Rodrigo song, but you didn't even know that.

I did.

I just said it.

And then you were like, it's Olivia Rodrigo.

Like, I have said it's Taylor Swift.

Like, you would have known, you know?

Yeah, that's true.

Okay.

So that was the first one.

That was.

What was our advice?

Our advice was Michaela.

Yeah.

Or.

Michaela's always the answer.

Michaela's always the answer.

Or

just continue forge ahead in your your path.

Don't look in the rear view.

Yeah.

Forge ahead.

Do whatever you want.

It doesn't matter what she does because she's a betrayer.

Okay, are we ready for this next one?

Dear Claudia and Jackie, congrats on the bibbed, Jackie.

Congrats on your new tour, Claudia.

Thank you.

Tickets available at girlhnonjob.com slash tour, even though

there's like almost none left.

Okay, I'm in need of dire advice.

No, I'm in dire need of advice.

My best friend is about to get engaged to someone who's awful.

She's my ride or die from college.

We have another best friend in our group, and we both feel this way about her man.

Let's call the girl Rebecca.

Since college, the three of us have all lived in different states, so we didn't meet this man until later in the relationship.

I met him first and immediately talked to my other friends, but my concerns were just that he was obnoxious.

However, three months ago, the other best friend in our group met the man.

We visited them in the home they just built together, so obviously they're very serious.

Rebecca and her man have been together for almost two years, and my concern has since escalated to major red flags.

One, Rebecca

cried to us, begging for us to be extra nice to her man and offered to help clean up after dinner in order for him to like us.

Ooh.

He talks about money non-stop.

Everything about him is about money and how now she's doing it too, constantly telling us they make a lot of money when literally nobody asked.

Rebecca's man talked horribly about her other friends who visited before us.

He actually said to us that he would rather

murder them than have them visit again.

Hyperbole, but very strange.

Overall, he's abrasive.

He kept saying very offensive things.

to try and instigate fights.

We chose to ignore him because we were trying to be polite.

There are a bunch of other things he does that are just ick.

Me and my friend feel like we need to say something to her about him.

Rebecca is so isolated where she lives and doesn't really have friends of her own there.

Rebecca found the engagement ring box in the house, so she thinks he will propose soon.

My friend said she wouldn't be able to be a bridesmaid if she marries him.

Multiple other close friends have brought up other concerns about him to me.

My question is, do we say something and how do we say it?

We love Rebecca so much and we are concerned.

Please help a fellow girly girl out.

Oh, we have to do it for the girly girls.

Because, you know, I'm always like, just mind your own business, let people make their own mistakes.

But like, if you're all seeing something that she can't see, like, and you have, they're not engaged yet.

Like, you have the chance to do something.

Wouldn't you want your friends to do that for you?

I don't know, like, you guys don't have to date him.

Like, she's

she's a girl, like, she makes her own choices.

Like, on the one hand, yeah, you have one chance to save her, but, like, what?

Because you don't like him?

Like, obviously, I doesn't sound like I would like this man either.

I understand exactly where you're coming from, but at a certain point, like, people get to make their own choices.

And, like, waiting, you put your foot in it, like, you just stink up the whole joint.

Like, I think no good deed goes unpunished.

She's still gonna get engaged to him.

And then you guys are going to look like unsupportive friends.

And how are you ever going to all hang out again?

Like, that's fair.

In reality, you know, like, of course,

you've got to stop her.

Like, they built a fucking house together.

This girl's not going anywhere.

Yeah.

And, like, maybe she likes him.

Like, maybe all the things that you don't like about him, like, are endearing to her.

No, or they don't bother her as much as they bother you.

Or, you know, first somehow, like, the way he is when they're just alone makes her happy.

And like, the way he is around other people, he's a worse version of himself.

That's very a lot of people are like that.

You know, they in group situations suck, and one-on-one, they're totally fine.

But, like, this isn't like a

non-serious relationship where it's like they haven't moved in together yet.

She doesn't know him, and we're seeing something she hasn't.

She knows everything.

She knows this man, she chose this man.

She's excited about the ring.

Like, you could say something if, but you would only be saying it for yourself, actually, just to get it off your chest.

Right.

Not necessarily for her because she knows him.

Right, it's not like she's ever complained about him to you.

So like she's very happy.

And isn't that all that matters?

Yeah.

And you don't have to sleep next to him at night.

And it's not a crime to be annoying, by the way, like and talk about money.

It's fucking annoying, but it's not a crime.

Like sometimes you don't like the person that your friend is with.

Yeah.

And that's fine.

You're not dating them.

And you know what?

Like eventually, I actually think this is a really hard part about growing up.

Like

everyone's priorities turn out to be like their partner and their relationship, the family they're going to build together.

And it's not always about like friends, friends, friends, but like when you're in college, like your friends are everything.

So like that transition, like when the first friend, it's like obviously building a house and getting married.

Like it's really difficult because like, what about us?

Like, you know, we were your priority forever, but everyone, the older you get, like, you're, the family you're building for yourself becomes your priority.

And it sounds like that's what this girl's doing.

Yeah.

So if there was something that she didn't know, I would say tell her, you know, you saw him, he was talking to this girl, you heard something about him, but it's all things that he's doing like in front of you and you just want to share your opinion about it.

And in front of Rebecca, yeah, no, it's all things that he's doing in front of her, too.

Like, she sees exactly what you see, and she actually sees more because she spent more time with him, and she's still making her choice.

I don't think it's going to be productive for you to say.

I just don't think you're going to get the answer that you want, where she's like, Yes, save me, and you guys all go back to being roommates.

Like, I think she's going to, like, then she's going to choose him.

Yeah, she's going to choose him and keep you at arm's length.

So, what would you prefer?

Yeah, the balls in your court.

Sorry, no, that's not what you want to hear.

No, not at all.

There is one more deer toaster.

Okay.

And it is brought to you by Spritz Society.

Elevate your everyday with Spritz Society.

Something

made in a can that is made with real cane sugar.

It's 120 calories and it's absolutely delicious.

We've had, well, actually, you haven't had it yet because you've had it.

I haven't had it from the can, but I did have it in the trial phases.

It comes in four flavors.

As you guys know, our family is involved with this brand.

It's amazing.

They're wine-based canned cocktails.

They got grapefruit, pineapple, lemonade, and blood orange, which is like kind of a traditional Spritzy flavor.

They're so good.

We obviously have a code for you guys.

I personally cannot drink hard seltzers because a lot of people are like, oh, hard seltzer is vodka.

No, the base of hard seltzer is malt.

And for me, my stomach does not agree with malt.

Jackie was there in the airport when I was like chugging Peptoabismal.

And then I ran to the bathroom in Utah and had diarrhea and threw up.

It was a gorgeous day.

So I officially have not drank Hart Seltzer's in like almost a year and I've become obsessed with sports society, not only because Ben started the company, I swear when I'm drinking, I'm like, there's nothing better than this.

I drink them on the river.

I drink them on rooftops, I drink them at apartments.

They're just everything of the sort.

And there's 120 calories per can, and you can use coatos for 10% off the variety pack.

You got to try all the flavors because I was really into lemonade, but now I'm thinking I'm very much like a grapefruit girly girl.

What's so interesting is everybody has a different favorite flavor, and there's not one flavor that's like nobody's favorite.

No, and there's not one that's like the one that everyone loves.

The front runner.

Yeah, it's really, it's more personal than food or comedy.

They also have an option to subscribe and receive monthly deliveries that we definitely recommend because you go through it faster than you realize.

So you get Spritz Society stocked monthly at a discounted price, but you also get exclusive access to gift with purchases as well as exciting new offers coming down the pipeline.

So toast is the code on the variety pack for 10% off at spritzsociety.com.

Check it out.

I know so many of you have already ordered it and we love and appreciate the support, but it's really like, it's, I'm not even lying, it is the best drink on the market right now.

Like, I I don't know what else to drink.

Yeah.

It's like, it's kind of like changed my life.

It's such a problem solver.

Yes.

I love a solution oriented beverage.

Yes, Jackie, I was literally at like my friend, well, Ben's best friend and his wife, we're like four or some now, you know.

We were hanging out and we were like, do you guys have any spritz?

They're like, yeah, of course.

We have the subscribe monthly.

And first of all, we went through, like, with the four of us in one night, we went through like probably 15, like, no problem.

And we were saying, I'm like, if we weren't drinking this right now, like, what would we be drinking?

And I don't really even drink wine.

Yeah.

But these are wine-based and they're just delightfully all-natural and delicious.

So wonderful.

They're also for me, like whenever I'm going to someone's apartment or someone's like having me for the weekend, I just like, you can bring a bottle of wine, sure, but they have like a million that they threw into their cupboard.

No, that they literally use like for making pasta.

Yeah.

But I now bring like a can of spritz and it's just like such a festive, cute thing to bring and it's just like a level up.

I, that's a great call.

Okay, our final deer toasters.

Hello, Jackie and Claudia.

I have to say that the podcast podcast has gotten me through some tough times this past year.

I lost my brother in June, and you guys have been a ray of light for me since.

Thank you, and I'm so sorry.

Now, to my petty friend situation that I need your advice on.

I have a really tight circle of best friends, and after I lost my brother last year...

Sorry, I read this wrong.

I have a really tight circle of best friends, and after I lost my brother last year, all of them, except for one, Ramona, made a huge effort to be there for me.

I confronted Ramona.

She said some nasty things, and we naturally had a falling out, but she stayed friends with two of my best friends.

That would piss me off.

Fast forward a year and multiple apologies later, and I've tried to reach out to rekindle a relationship, inviting her to my parents' lake house for July 4th, inviting her to lunch, texting her to check in, and even seeing her a couple of times.

She blew off my July 4th invite, and I decided not to invite her on a girls' trip for my birthday.

A weekend I asked my best friends to be my bridesmaids.

Ramona wasn't invited.

Ramona never told me she was upset about that, and I moved forward with still reaching out and even invited her to a formal engagement party with my fiancé.

Well, this past weekend, she had a large birthday dinner and doesn't invite me.

Two of my best friends, telling two of my best friends that it's because I'd invited her to my girls' weekend three months ago.

Am I being petty by uninviting Ramona to our engaging party?

Our very close family and friends will be there, and we're spending over $200 per person at a 100-person venue.

Hmm, so you're spending

20 grand.

Wow, nice eating party.

Maybe invite us.

Yeah, we'll take her spot.

Yeah, 100%.

Clearly, she doesn't think we're actually friends, and I'd rather focus my night on hanging out with people.

I don't have to question why they're there.

Please help.

From an overly overthinking and possibly doormat of a toaster, I have to say,

right from the get-go here, I was shook because...

Check my math.

Oh, was that right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, right from the get-go here, I'm like, I don't think this girl, if, if there's a friend in your life who you considered a friend who's not there for you, like when your brother died, like the hardest time in your life.

Not a friend.

First of all, not a friend.

You're a very nice person for reaching back out after, but I do think that this relationship is kaput.

Like, I don't think you should have, I think, like, you should just wash your hands of it.

Like, it's so petty back and forth.

Don't admit to the engagement party and really never talk to this bitch again.

Like there, there are things that people do that are unforgivable.

And for me, like this is one of them.

I completely agree.

Like that would be my response to, it sounded like she already sent out engagement party invites.

She's the girl's invited, but she's like, is it petty if I disinvite her?

I think like yes, because then you're getting back into this like tit for tat with Ramona where it's like let her come to the engagement party, ignore her, and please don't ever speak to her again.

Like what an awful, awful person.

Like she didn't deserve your kindness when you were the one to reach out after you were going through a hard time.

And the fact that like you invited her to your parents' house for July 4th and she can't invite you to a birthday dinner, like fuck Ramona.

Fuck Ramona.

It sounds like you have other wonderful people in your life.

You're engaged.

Like we're moving forward and

we're leaving Ramona in the rear view.

And if you feel like that the lack of Ramona in your life is going to leave some sort of gap, like join a local toaster group and you can find an amazing friend there.

Like I really, really want you to know like how little I want you to be friends with Ramona.

You need to get away from Ramona.

Absolutely.

And I love that you named her Ramona.

Like it's so appropriate.

Yeah, I'm so like, she's so wrong.

You sound like a lovely person for like wanting to welcome this person back into your life, but it's okay for you to be like, you know what?

What you, the lack of love you showed me at one of the hardest times of my life, like I really don't think I can get past.

So with all due respect, like fuck off.

And you have so many friends who were there for you.

You know, focus on the positives.

Your fiancé, you're getting married.

Leave Ramona in the dust.

Peace out, Ramona.

That's the message here.

Good day, Ramona.

Good day, Ramona.

And really, thanks to Ben for hooking it up.

A lot of people were wondering, like, why Ben's not coming with me.

So, yes, Ben was invited to the wedding that I'm going to.

It's one of my best friends from high school, but Ben can't go.
