S4 Ep101: Lil Bit Diana: Monday, June 7th, 2021

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Monday.

Let's acknowledge the space that we're in.

It is Monday.

It is a full week after a short week.

But you know what?

We're going to rise.

We're going to grind.

We're going to power through.

We're going to make this week our bitch.

And then we'll be done.

Yeah, I mean, we do hate to see it.

A full week after a short week.

It's offensive.

It's Monday, and this Monday feels particularly Monday-y.

Particularly vile.

Particularly toxic.

Particularly particular.

Yeah.

So

we're just going to power through, you know, so much is going on.

We have so much going on this week that's really exciting.

Yes, we have lots of

guests.

Lots of secret projects.

Lots of secret projects that you'll find out about in like 0.2 seconds.

Yeah, no, we're just doing a bunch of really good interviews this week.

So we're super excited about that.

We are.

And then also, like, you have a really big life update to share with the class.

And

I do.

Yeah.

I don't think that I do.

It starts with the word C.

No, I think like if I tell you something personal.

It's always personal.

It's like stays between us.

Oh, okay.

Okay.

It's staying between us then.

Yeah.

Do you want to start over?

No, no, it's okay.

It's okay.

But like, sorry, guys, it's not even like a big deal.

You're like, meeting like such a thing.

I just like decided to like do something myself.

And like, it's not a big deal.

Just like if I tell you something personal, like, don't bring it up on the show.

I did not know that it was personal.

I was looking forward to talking about it, but never mind.

It's really not a big thing.

I was making it a bigger thing than.

No, everyone's going to be like, what is it now?

Like, it's not a big deal.

Like, just can we move on, please?

Okay.

Sure.

How was your weekend?

It was good.

It was filled with lots of highs and lows.

Aloh was hosting Shabbat at my home, which was very difficult for me.

Um, but I did vlog the entire experience on Patreon.

So patreon.com/slash morning toast, Shabbat at Claudia's.

It was chaotic.

It was messy.

But in the end, we turned it out.

No, the end.

I just watched the vlog.

It's up now at Patreon.

And the end was like so beautiful.

It's a tale as old as time, a happy ending.

It was a happy ending, a delicious-looking ending.

And I was, I attended the shabbat and i can say it it was in fact delicious it was a really night you did a great job yeah thank you so it was just like a lot not to spoil the vlog but it went really well yeah it's a lot to host but then also to like make the choice to vlog it like adds like another burden element 100 um but then i wanted to make the shabbat as good as possible because i was vlogging it so in the end i think i was better off because of the challenge the adversity that i faced

um but it was a journey nonetheless and then and now you have that content to look back on to laugh over yeah so it was really good congratulations fabulous it was fabulous thank you so much for coming.

Thank you for having me.

My weekend was really great.

I feel like I did so much.

I was so productive, but also had a lot of fun, was out and about.

Unfortunately, Bruno was sick this weekend and it was

so sad.

That's horrible.

It was so sad.

And even this morning, like he went into his crate on his own before it was time.

It's not a good sign.

Can I tell you something?

Like so weird that happened to me this morning, speaking of Bruno.

I, it's very hot in the city, so I did take an Uber because it's just too hot to like get all stunning and then like become a sweatbox.

I really don't feel like I need to explain myself yet.

Here I am explaining myself.

I mean, I get to the Uber and the driver's so sweet and he's like, oh man, such a cute dog.

I'm like, he's Theo.

He's like, you know, giving him this whole like little elevator pitch.

Yeah, he's a doctor.

He's this.

And then the Uber driver said, the weirdest thing.

He's like, yeah, I mean,

I was like going to get a dog, but they just die after 10 years.

And I'm like, excuse me.

Excuse me?

I'm like, why would you say that?

I'm like, oh, I try not to think about it.

He's like, yeah, no.

Like, my dad had a dog and like he died.

And we were all devastated.

So I was going to get one, but then I'm just like, dogs die.

I'm like, can you stop saying die?

I was just like, yeah, totally.

Like, I was tearing up in the back of the car.

I just didn't realize I was going to get into an Uber and literally have my life ruined.

I just didn't see that for myself.

No, that's wrong.

Like, obviously, we all know that that's the case, but we all

decide that 10 years of love is worth the pain that comes.

Like, grief is the price that you pay for love.

So, what?

We're just not supposed to experience love?

No.

I don't even.

You don't even want to talk about it.

Yeah, like, I mean, I did bring it up.

So, like, I didn't realize that I didn't realize that we would have to talk about it.

I'm just responding to your story, your anecdote.

I just, like, let's talk about how weird it was.

Like, it was so rude.

Yeah, and you know what?

Like, with a little, with modern medicine and the healthy diet, 10 plus.

15.

Yeah.

It was just, like, so

abrasive.

I just wasn't expecting that.

Yeah.

No, that's, that's wrong.

But, you know, it's a reminder that life is short.

Live it to the fullest.

Life is short.

Life is short, and it's shorter for dogs.

Oh, stop.

Okay, this is so upsetting.

Yeah.

Okay.

Sorry, Charlie.

We're going to move on again.

We're going to pivot again.

We just can't find a safe topic.

No, not at all.

It's just like a landfield.

Minefield?

Minefield.

But you know what?

Landmine.

What is a safe topic always for us?

Television and books.

Yes.

What did you read or watch this weekend?

I finished Why Women Kill.

It's a little annoying.

There are two things about, I loved it.

And it was very reminiscent of Desperate Housewives.

I do believe one of the houses on the street in the first season is Catherine's house from Desperate Housewives.

Like it's definitely filmed on Wisteria Lane.

But one of the things I didn't like about it was, first of all, there's only a season and like a half on Netflix.

I mean, on Paramount Plus, maybe less.

And two, each season is a different story.

So all the characters from the first season who like you fell in love with aren't in the second season.

It's like we're starting fresh with like a whole new narrative, which is cool.

but I really like was obsessed with Lucy Liu's character and there were just so many like stories I loved following.

They're over, which is like annoying.

Yeah.

So I finished that.

And then what I

think that's all I watched.

I watched the Floyd Mayweather fight, which we're going to talk about in our first story, which was just really a stark event.

It was really cool to be a part of something.

It was.

You know how we feel.

Like we're just so excited to like, you know, know what's going on.

And be included.

Yeah.

Thanks for including us.

I watched Halston after your reviews on the show.

Did you finish it?

I finished it because it was pretty short.

And I enjoyed it because, you know, I finished it, but I just felt like I don't even know that much about Halston, but I know enough to know that like that documentary is like...

a grave injustice to his name.

Why?

Just first of all, the way that they just went about everything sort of made it seem like he accidentally designed something amazing or that everyone around him really like propped him up and he like he couldn't ever think of designs when like in reality he totally changed the face of American fashion.

Like that person that was working for him who accidentally tie-dyed some stuff on his stove and then they made, and then they just cut a hole in the top and made gowns.

Like, I just, I think it was a little more intentional than that.

The documentary made it seem like he literally didn't have ideas of his own and wasn't like the innovator that he was.

I feel like in the beginning, definitely, like, it was going in that direction, but by the end of the show, like, respect was put on his name.

No, by the end of it, it just made it seem like he finally realized, you know, that he had made a lot of mistakes, but it was honestly too late to correct them.

Yeah.

But that might be how it actually happened.

I'm sure that he made a lot of mistakes, and I'm sure, you know, some of the stuff, I'm sure a lot of the stuff about his work ethic and the drugs and everything, but in the beginning, like, it just sort of seemed like he was

not that much of a visionary.

Yeah, but when in reality, he was the visionary.

Well, let's think about it, because some of the names that were being thrown around as other famous American designers were like Oscar De Laurenta, Calvin Klein at the time, who were like his competition.

Yes.

Those names are still like huge names in American fashion.

Halston really isn't.

Agreed, but at the time,

Halston was the biggest one.

And he just kind of didn't get that respect in the show.

Like if I didn't know anything about Halston, and now I feel like I need to go and do research because...

No, but I feel like there's a, like, the reason why disrespect was kind of put on his story is because I feel like that's kind of how it had to happen.

Because I don't know how you go from being the Calvin Klein to being in today.

There is like Halston heritage to being irrelevant.

Yeah, but I think that's because he sold his name.

The business of it all.

Yeah.

But also, but I really was enjoying the business of it all.

Me too.

I was thinking, like, we need a David Mahoney up in here.

I mean, then I was like, well,

or do we i was thinking like i didn't really feel like he made that many bad decisions in terms of selling the business david maloney did but i think like by the end they were like i sold my name i sold my name but they did great work and halston himself was the one who ruined it in addition to the bad business moves like i don't really feel like the business decisions that he made were so terrible he became the Institute of American Fashion because he got bought.

Yeah, I agree with that.

That's so bad.

I didn't think it was so bad either.

I was happy to like see him doing well, but of course, you know, there's a price for everything.

I just feel like if I, now that I know.

He shouldn't have just done jeans.

He should have just done jeans.

But now that I know even a little bit about Halston, like I feel like that show is like a disservice to his memory.

And I need to take it upon myself to do a little more research.

I do not feel like that is a full and fair picture.

Can I tell you that I accidentally watched an Amazon Prime documentary on

Halston when I thought I was watching like the show that everyone was talking about.

And I only watched the first hour.

I think it was like a two-hour documentary.

But then when I watched the Halston series, I like knew a lot of what they were referring to.

Like the documentary on Amazon Prime, I think you might find more educational, did tell a lot of the same story that the Netflix show did.

Yeah, I think I'm going to have to do a little bit more researching.

You know what?

When you're watching someone's life story, you shouldn't leave feeling that way.

So overall, like I enjoyed it.

It was enjoyable, but I just.

Did you think Ewan McGregor was good?

No, I didn't.

I mean, he didn't like bother me as much as he bothered you, except towards the end.

But no, I didn't think he was great.

Me neither.

But a little fun fact I did not know, like he did the pillbox hat, you know?

Yeah.

And in the documentary on Prime, they had like a little fun fact.

Like Jackie O, when she was like walking out of the limo at the inauguration, she touched the back of her.

The back of the hat and dented the hat.

So everyone thought it was like a fashion choice, but it was really just like she dented it.

Oh, that's so interesting.

Yeah.

Okay, yeah, that's the sort of stuff that I want to know.

Yeah, and you would like the Prime documentary.

It was like very artistically done.

Honestly, the style of how they did the documentary was bothering the shit out of me.

And I'm like, this is what everyone is obsessed with.

But then I realized I was watching the wrong show.

Got it.

So, anyways, glad I watched it.

It was nice to be watching TV again.

But then I went back to reading.

And I'm reading this book called The Woman Before Wallace.

Wallace Simpson, you know who she is.

So it was like the woman that

Edward was in love with before Wallace.

And she has to like go.

So she was actually

Gloria Vandenberg's twin sister.

Oh, wow.

And she had to go.

Anderson Cooper of it all.

She had to go back to the U.S.

because of the custody trial, trial, which was a really big deal.

And I think it was in that time due to the trial that Wallace wooed her man.

Got it.

But I'm not, spoiler alert.

Also, I'm not that far along yet.

I don't know if that's what happens.

It just seems that way.

I didn't read anything this weekend.

I just like, I had a really good balance of like peacefulness.

And like, I ended up at a rave on Saturday night and four in the morning, like at a townhouse, and it was incredibly bizarre, but super fun.

No, I agree.

I had a good balance of peacefulness and out-and-aboutness.

And socialization.

And also, I didn't start Malibu Rising because I'm going to wait till I'm on a beach.

I think it's like such a great beach read, and I'm really saving it.

Okay.

So that's that on that.

That's that on that.

I think we should dive in because we've got a big story and I'm just dying to talk about this fight that happened last night because it was truly remarkable.

Oh, so should I bump that up to number one?

Oh, is it not number one?

No, it was a number two.

Lily Bet.

Lily Bet is number one.

Lily Bet is number one.

There's so much to talk about.

We have to go.

So without further ado, to do to do, where are you right here being perfect?

Okay, first story, big news of the weekend.

Well, two big stories.

First story is that Megan Markle and Prince Harry welcome a a baby girl named for both the queen and Princess Diana.

They announced it is with great joy that Prince Harry and Megan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, welcome their daughter, Lily Bet Lily, Diana Mountbatten, Windsor, to the world.

Lily was born on Friday, June 4th at 11:40 a.m.

in the trusted care of the doctors and staff at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, California.

Santa Babra,

she weighed seven pounds, 11 ounces.

Both mother and child are healthy and well and settling in at home.

So Lily is named after her great-grandmother, Her Majesty the the Queen, whose family nickname is Lilibet.

If you watch the queen, if you watch the crown, that is no surprise.

Her middle name, Diana, was chosen to honor her beloved late grandmother, the Princess of Wales.

Though Spencer was in consideration for the first name, the couple decided last minute not to use it.

No, you're lying.

Oh my God, I just got so excited.

Okay.

Before we dive in, because I do have some thoughts, mostly negative.

I just want to say, I do think it's very weird that like everyone gets an opinion on like what someone names their baby.

But of course, these are like ex-royal figures.

So that is what we do.

But I just want to say like it does feel bizarre.

Like it's their choice.

It's their family.

It's their baby.

Like let them do what they want.

100%.

But it's not even just them.

Like even with celebrities, we're always, you know, members.

This has historical significance.

Therefore, I feel it's like I can have an opinion on it.

Yes.

But it does feel weird like to comment on like a personal choice, you know?

No, and also I feel like even when they had Archie, it wasn't as big of a deal, just what they were gonna name it.

Cause it's like, are they gonna hark back to the royals?

Are they not?

No, but like when you're a part of the royal institution, there's only a certain amount of names you're like legally allowed to choose from.

So like it's not a surprise.

It's like George, arthur or alexander like you know like yeah yeah they're all the same but now that they're out of it they could choose you know sarah or they could have they could get more creative with it and i do think it's very interesting that first of all they didn't choose to honor prince philip's memory like we had spoken about

it didn't happen it didn't happen for you um that they didn't honestly like in first name decide to honor diana because i just feel like

like Harry's obsessed like with his mother's legacy like as he should be um I feel like he talks about it a lot and I

it's obviously like a tragic loss, and she's not alive anymore, but like the queen is.

So, like, I just thought it was weird that he chose to honor the queen first, Diana second.

I also obviously thought it was weird that, like, literally, they're coming off this interview, like, disgracing the family.

And like, this just seems like kind of kiss assy, like, oh, we like to love our grandmother so much, like, we're just gonna name it after her, you know?

Yeah, I just want to know, like, there's so many reports that, like, the queen is furious, the queen gave approval.

What does the queen think?

Like, I want to know.

Well, because it's hard because for us commoners, we're just going off of the things that we actually know, which is that the, you know, the Oprah interview, and now the kid's name is Lilibet, and it's like these two things seem in conflict with one another.

One plus one equals sock.

One plus one equals sock.

And so to me, I'm just like confused.

And I love the name Lily, and that's what they're going to call her.

But it, you know, it Lilibet is a larger name.

I just feel like Lilibet is her family nickname.

It's just like so personal to the queen.

And I don't know.

I.

It does seem weird.

It seems like an invasion of privacy.

Like,

first of all, nobody goes out in the streets and calls her.

Hey, Lilibet.

Like, everyone calls her Queen Elizabeth.

And I think it was like a name that Prince Philip chose first.

So it's like a sweet, like, endearing personal thing.

So it is kind of weird to put it on blast.

Well, I think they were calling her since she's a kid.

Lili Beth.

God.

And so not Prince Philip, but yeah, it was, it's just a very personal name.

So I don't know.

I like the name Lily for her.

And that's what they're going to call her.

I just

I don't know, also, someone sent me the funniest DM because people like who are reading it who don't watch the who don't know that Lil Bet is Elizabeth's name, they're like Lil Bet.

Yeah, no, it sounds like a rapper.

And then someone's messaged me, they're like, It reminds me of a little bit Alexis, a little bit Alexis,

a little bit Diana.

That's true, so funny, and now I can't get that out of my head.

No, 100%.

It's also just like not, I think, a very common American name.

I think people in the UK are like familiar with that nickname for Elizabeth.

I hadn't, you know, ever heard of it before, the queen.

So it's like original and stuff.

I don't know.

I'm just like, I'm just confused.

Like, I need more of clarity on how we got from disgracing the royal family in it and even like exposing all their dirty secrets to incorporating yourself in really every public way and making it very clear where you stand.

And even though they didn't really take jabs at the queen, they're jabbing her life's work, her dad's life's work, her entire leg, like ancestral life's work.

And so I just think it's um, it's just how did we get from A to B?

Like, I would just like some clarity.

Right, and maybe there's things that's that are happening behind the scenes that we do not know, but once again, we only know what we know, and so just like from the interview to the name, it's it's um it's a hop, skip, and a jump.

Like, yeah, I'm just confused.

So it's Lily Diana is very pretty.

I was just shocked at a few of the elements.

I thought for sure the name was going to be like a direct

Diana moment, but it was the middle name, which is like irrelevant.

Yeah, that's just like something that you do to be nice.

To be nice.

Yeah.

And it's because she has a long name now, Lilibette Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.

Yeah.

Lily, Lilibet, Diana Mountbatten, Windsor.

Lilibet Lily, Diana Mountbatten, Windsor.

It's a lot of names.

Yeah, but congratulations to the happy family.

And we just love some.

We love some Ben Ben news.

And I like that like nobody was able to guess it.

Like, that's cool.

You know, we're all just surprised.

The people, this is like,

when I first heard the

name,

I was like, of course, shocked because I didn't think that's what it was going to be.

But also, like, all these royal experts who've like literally never been right about anything.

That's why, how are we supposed to believe like any of these reports when the royal experts said the name was going to be Philippa?

100%.

So it's like, what do we know anything?

Like, we're clowns over here thinking we know what the fuck's going on.

Right, but at least we knew it wasn't going to be Philippa.

Yeah, because we're not dumb.

Because we knew that much, at least.

Yes.

Okay, are we ready for our next story?

The big news of the weekend.

Yes.

Logan Paul goes the distance with Floyd

Mayweather.

I love Floyd Mether.

Stop.

Floyd Mayweather in exhibition bout.

So, pay-per-view last night, Logan Paul versus Floyd Mayweather.

He stood the eight rounds.

There was no knockout.

Yeah, I mean, it was like truly impressive.

I feel like the kind of like the narrative, like I was watching, I bought it on Showtime, and the MCs were

like the regular MC, like I don't know his name, and then Deesus and Merrow, like the comedy duo.

And like the whole time, they were just click clowning, like, he's lasting longer than a TikTok.

There were so many TikTok jokes, honestly.

It was some of the least creative jokes I've ever heard in my life.

Um, everyone's just like clowning on him because he's like a social media sensation, and everyone's just like joking, making a joke out of it.

But I honestly, like, I watched it, and I was like, I'm sorry, like, you have to give credit where credit is due.

He didn't get knocked out, he lasted all eight rounds.

Of course, by the eighth round, like Floyd Mayweather hadn't even broken a sweat and Logan Paul looked like he was literally about to faint.

Like, walking out of the competition into their locker rooms, like Floyd Mayweather looks like he literally had went for a walk in the park, and Logan Paul looked like he had been kidnapped for a month like Of course, but he did it like and I don't know I just feel like all these jokes whatever like say what you want but like Logan Paul like actually did that He didn't get knocked out He got like a couple good punches and of course Floyd's numbers like and statistics were of course way better than Logan's but I'm sorry like you have to held his own.

He did and like even Floyd Mayweather said in the post-fight interview like he was way better than I thought he was gonna be and like he's a decent fighter and like this is just the beginning of something great.

So you know what?

And then Logan Paul said at the end I was kind of inspired.

He was like nothing's impossible.

Like, look at me.

Like, I literally made vines and I just fought the best fighter arguably in history.

Yeah, that's good.

Do you think that Floyd Mayweather was holding back?

Okay, so like now there are all these conspiracy theories because like Floyd Mayweather got 90% of the bag.

So however many people bought pay-per-view on all these different platforms, he got 90% of sales and Logan Paul agreed to only take 10% just so he could fight Floyd Mayweather.

So, and even in these pre-interview packages they were putting together, get to know the fighters, like Floyd

Mayweather, like, why can't we?

I don't know.

Floyd, it's a mouthful.

Floyd Mayweather made it very clear.

Like, of course he loves boxing, but like his passion is investing and building generational wealth for his family.

So like he was, he owns like gentlemen's clubs.

He owns construction companies, real estate.

portfolios like so he's really all about the money and so it makes me think like did he only take this fight and like agree to like go all the rounds just like make the most possible money the longer the fight is on the more people buy it like but he could have like let loose in the eighth round round.

Yeah, and also I kept saying to Ben, like, he has integrity as a fighter.

Now, this was an exhibition, which means it doesn't go in the record books.

Floyd Mayweather's 50 and O.

He's not 51 and O now.

And it seems fair.

There was no real winner

unless someone got knocked out.

But I think they both agreed that they weren't going to knock out.

So it was kind of like a pointless fight

because it doesn't have any real bearing on.

And there's no, usually there's like a counsel who decides if nobody gets knocked out, like who got the most punches.

Like someone will decide who wins and they hold up the hand in the middle of the the race.

Yeah, there was none of that.

So, like, it was kind of pointless.

They both just like made a ton of money for like no reason.

Well, I think they put on the show and they brought people together.

Amigos performed.

There was a full card.

There was a fight before.

So it was like a whole thing.

Yeah.

No, I think it was pretty cool.

I didn't watch the entire thing, but I watched the first two rounds, I think.

Plus, Zach called me to come out when Logan Paul came out to From Now On from The Greatest Showman.

That was crazy.

Which was just, really, I didn't think Logan Paul a man of taste.

I just didn't see that for him.

And I have a whole new respect.

Yeah.

I actually had like a whole new respect for Logan Paul the whole evening.

I know people don't like him.

And of course, he's problematic in his own way with the whole cancellation.

But I really feel like the Logan we're seeing now is a totally different.

He's constantly evolving.

He is.

And

I just really like appreciated, even though like they're so chaotic, like whatever happened with the FBI at Jake Paul's house, like we'll literally never know.

They're so supportive of one another.

Like you can't help but like really respect their brotherly relationship.

Like Jake Paul is like tweeting, my brother beat Floyd Mayweather.

He didn't.

Like if there was a winner, it would have been Floyd Mayweather.

No, and even you saw Jake Paul like when they would pant at him and he was just like going so hard.

It was sweet.

I'm sorry.

Like I don't know if I was the only one like you couldn't help but like really think like look what these two morons did like literally from Ohio, you know, made their bones off of eating Legos and you know beating up each other in their living room.

And like they're on the biggest stage in the world.

And I'm sorry, like there is something impressive about that.

I agree.

Regardless of whether or not you like like like them or or their content, and I've literally never seen a piece of their content in my life.

Like I don't follow them.

I don't buy Maverick apparel, but there is something to be said about when you...

You don't buy Maverick apparel while you don't want to accept Ben.

No, I don't, like I'm saying I'm not like a fan of theirs, but like, I don't know, it was also just like bothering me how like all the announcers was like, you know, you're hating this if you're normal, but loving it if you're an 11-year-old.

It's just like this constant like beratement and like mocking of like people on the internet, which like I didn't really appreciate.

But I was really, I was proud to be an influencer last night.

Yeah, so Logan fought recently, right?

Like,

Jake did.

Okay, that was my question.

Who did he fight?

Jake fought Nate Robinson, who's a retired NBA player, and knocked him out in the first round.

Oh, wow.

So, like,

and but there are all these conspiracy theories that, like, because there's so much money in boxing.

Like, these people are going to agree to anything to get knocked out.

Like, if they, so you just put on a show.

All these people think that like it's staged or it's, you know,

scripted almost.

But but I watched and I got it.

Looked pretty real.

Yeah.

Interesting.

Nelamar Odom saying he wants to fight Logan Paul.

Like, oh, cool.

Logan and Jake should fight each other.

100%.

That's a good call.

Yeah.

Free idea.

But this one was like a

very legit.

It was Showtime.

It was extremely legit.

It was extremely legit.

Whereas the Jake Paul one was super legit too, but it was like on Triller, sponsored by Triller, Triller, Triller, Triller, TikTok, TikTok, you know, like.

Yeah.

So it is what it is.

Yeah.

No, I understand.

And I had one other thought about it, which was something that has escaped me.

So obviously.

It obviously wasn't that important to you.

Obviously was not that.

Oh, just like Floyd Mayweather repping TMT.

We just want to thank you so much for the person.

For sponsoring our brand.

And your belief in us.

It's really stunning to see.

Yeah, we do love to see it.

Thank you.

Yeah.

I also just like actually ended up with.

like a lot of respect for Floyd Mayweather too, because first of all, he could have like joined in on like everyone, the whole night, everyone was making fun of Logan Paul, like from the announcers on social media, like everyone.

It was like joke, joke, joke.

But in the pre post

and even in the pre-interview, like little package, he said he has a lot of respect for what Logan Paul has done, where he's gotten himself.

And after, he was like, he was much better than I thought.

And I had a lot of fun.

Nice.

So it was like, you know, it was a fun sportsman.

Fun Sunday night activities.

People at the Hard Rock Stadium looked like they were having fun.

I'm having fun.

We're all just having fun.

Yeah, they're putting on the show.

You know, after a whole year of like no entertainment, I'm here for it.

And I probably like before the before COVID, like never would have watched, paid $50 for that piece of shit.

But But after, my bar is so low, it was fabulous.

Speaking of after,

speaking of after, okay, literally, you guys are not not to make the fight about me, but I have no choice.

It was made about me.

After the fight was over, they were doing like all these, you know, like recaps and schmecaps and post-op.

I turned it off and went to bed.

And right before I went to bed, my phone is like lighting up.

Margot's calling me.

I have all these text messages.

People are tagging me and all these stories.

After the fight ended, my comedy special came on.

My comedy special is available on pay-per-view, so I guess it was like promo.

But I was like, are you kidding me?

Like, am I the most famous person in the world?

Do you know how many people were watching that?

Yeah, how many people like couldn't find their remotes?

Or just like were, you know, drinking and like left it on.

They're having a party.

Yeah.

All of a sudden, Claudia Asher.

It was so crazy.

And like, honestly.

I was, I couldn't sleep after that.

The weirdest shit happens to me, like, literally.

That is so funny.

I know.

I mean, I hope that so many people watched it and had a great laugh.

And also, cream means screm.

Yeah, they just.

They probably learned a lot.

Also, my comedy special is available for free to stream on Amazon Prime.

It's called Claudia Osha Disgraced Queen.

It's about an hour.

It's free, so there's no reason you can't watch it.

Love it.

And leave a five-star review.

Oh, 100%.

We love five-star reviews.

Love it.

I just want to say I just saw an article in the sidebar about the Lilibette name, and you are right that it was bestowed upon her by her late husband, Prince Philip.

So it's an intimate thing that feels like it's being exploited unless Elizabeth is okay with it.

I just need the queen's we're never gonna get it so like we can all be morons and like you know fight amongst ourselves.

But like until I know what the queen is thinking, I feel like it's a slight.

Harry's people said they got express written permission from the queen, but then also I read reports the queen was furious like in the Daily Mail.

Right.

But it's true.

Right.

And also this royal expert, another one.

Oh, another, what's her name?

Angela Levin.

No, not her.

Melanie Bromley.

Yeah.

Just because you're British doesn't mean you're a royal experience.

Okay, but this royal expert said that she doesn't think the name was a good idea.

I think it's quite rude to Her Majesty, her queen.

It was a very private nickname from her husband, who hasn't been dead very long.

Prince Charles would never dream of calling his mother Lilibet.

Oh, he wouldn't?

No.

No, it was like an intimate thing.

Yeah.

That's like, okay, Ben calls me Muffy.

That's like literally you naming your kid Muffy.

No, but like, we don't have beef.

Right, no, and then we had me.

I didn't do an interview about you.

Yeah, I don't know.

I just like, I can't decide what Megan and Howry want from the royal family.

Like, because

it seems like they hate them, but love them.

Like, which one is it?

No, no, no.

It's it's really quite and I know it's not about me, but I am confused.

Like, I would love some clarity.

I'm, you know, what?

I feel like they're like, I feel like the royals are confused too.

They're like, wait, what?

Do you hate us?

Do you love us?

Do you want us?

Do you want in?

Do you want?

It's confusing.

Yeah, like, you.

But Lily's pretty.

Anyways, I just wanted to share that because you were right and I said, and I just want to correct that.

It's so rare, you know.

You were right.

Thank you.

Also, I'm still waiting for you were right about the Olivia Rodrigo not being a one-hit wonder, but you won't give me that.

By the way, that's not the argument.

The argument was I was saying it's too, it's too early to say whether or not she's a one-hit wonder.

Okay, but the initial argument was you said like she could be a one-hit wonder.

Oh, yeah, I said that she could be because she could.

And I said it was already decided that she wasn't.

Like after that, and I said it was too early to make the decision.

Okay, I think you're wrong.

No, but I just, I do want to clear that up because I think very well she probably won't be a one-hit wonder.

I was just saying it's too early to call it.

It seems like you're backtracking now.

Nope.

Roll the tapes.

Roll the tapes.

Seems like you're backtracking.

You heard what you wanted to hear.

You heard what you wanted to hear.

Roll the tapes.

It's all there for you guys to listen to.

It's all there for you guys to listen to.

Who has the memory here?

Me.

Okay.

Now we can get into our next story.

Mariah Carrie is dumping Jay-Z's Rock Nation after a blazing row.

I love, like, this is like some Hollywood biz industry news.

It's interesting when people like leave their agencies or their record deal.

Yeah,

and in a blaze of glory, too.

The Uber Diva has parted ways with Jay-Z and his management company, Rock Nation, after a blazing row with the rapper during a meeting about the future of her career, according to The Sun.

Carrie signed with Jay-Z in 2017, years after firing her former manager, Stella Bulachiknov.

And there's a lot of drama there, too.

There's lawsuits on both sides there.

Mariah and Jay had an explosive meeting, which did not go well at all, a source close to the situation told The Sun.

She has made it clear she wants nothing more to do with him and has called it quits with Rock Nation.

She will formally depart in the next few weeks.

It is a shame because they had done some great work in the last few years, but this meeting couldn't have gone much worse.

Mariah has been talking to other managers and thinks she has found someone who she feels has full belief in her as she takes her next steps.

I mean, it's,

I don't know what Mariah Carey would want for her career because she's kind of in this like ethereal place where she's just like a legend.

She's not releasing bops left, right, and center, but like her story, her book was hugely popular.

Her catalog of music is hugely popular.

Her, you know, Christmas, you know, she comes live at Christmas.

Like, I actually feel like she's been doing a pretty good job for the last few years.

Like Rock Nation wasn't doing a bad job.

Yeah.

Her social media is great.

Like whoever runs her social, like she's in on the joke, you know.

Yeah.

She comes alive after Thanksgiving.

Like it's all very funny.

It is very funny.

And I feel like they got her to a really good place after the other manager of like this is like, you know, with the book and the Christmas and like this is who you are.

But like they packaged her up very well.

Still the future is in question.

What will she do next?

And it's clear that they didn't agree.

Yeah, that's true.

But also I feel like we kind of forget.

Like there was like a dark Mariah Carrie time.

Like remember when she performed at

the Christmas lighting tree tree lighting and like literally somebody like her vocals were atrocious.

We forgot about that.

Like somebody really scooped her up.

I think Rock Nation actually did a pretty good job.

I'm curious like what Mariah Carrie wants for her future.

Well after reading her book I feel like she wants to keep making music.

I know like she's not releasing bop after bop but like music was so it's such a part of her like in the book she can't stop like just because you hit a certain age doesn't mean you're done living like you're not at all I just feel like Mariah Carrie like literally hasn't had a song that i know in like 10 years maybe more yeah no but i think that she would blame her managers yeah but she's only been in the throat nation for the last four years but where's the song that you know you know right no that's true she's just not like a radio artist anymore and i don't know if that's what she wants to be because she's kind of she's in a place most artists would dream of like eternal icon status And those people don't always like release bops.

But I think the music flows out of her and she wants to be at a place that's going to allow her to create new music and also fully support the music.

Yeah.

And not just work on like emerging artists.

I don't know if she's a bad person.

Not that I should have been a musician.

Not that the management company, I thought it was a record link.

I know.

I agree.

Not that I think that's what's happening.

I just really think she would want, like, she wants to keep putting out albums.

But maybe she's just not getting, like, maybe AR is not giving her the best songs.

That's possible.

But she's writing a songwriter.

She writes her own songs.

So I don't know.

Yeah.

I feel like she can really get into like a place where she's, you know, somebody adapts her book into a movie, like kind of how, like,

like she was in glitter.

We need like a glitter about Mariah Carey, yeah.

And I'm sure that's probably in the works, but she probably still wants to be making music, like, wants the bops.

She wants the bops, yeah, for sure.

But that's very interesting, you know.

I love a little business,

industry business.

Okay, next story: a little insider news: bachelor stars Matt James and Rachel Kirkconnell are planning to move in together.

So things are finally going well between Matt and Rachel.

Is this the fifth and final story?

No, it's not.

It's the fourth and second to last story.

The pent ultimate story.

That's an SAT word.

the big peak before the fifth what'd you get on the SATs a really good score of

um out of 2400 yeah I got a 2040 wow that's crazy I got a 1790

I was thinking the other day like I asked Ben I'm like I never know what he got on his SATs um he couldn't remember but he was like something average and I'm like yeah I think I did like really bad

no I did pretty good um I worked really hard for like studying and stuff.

Yeah, so did I.

Yeah, because like my grades were like, eh.

I had pretty good grades, but like the SATs were just.

They did you in.

They're just not for me, you know, and I was like on the precipice of people taking the ACTs because a much more apt test.

Like the SATs don't test how smart you are.

It's like, how much can we trick you?

It's the dumbest thing ever.

Yeah.

No, I hear that.

Now everyone takes the ACTs.

Yes.

Yeah.

Because kids these days are just like learning differently.

Yeah.

And it's also like annoying because everyone talks about the SATs like 1600.

And it's like, no, it hasn't been 1600 for so long.

Like, what did you get out of 2,400?

Yeah.

Because I can't relate to you.

Totally.

I can't compare myself to you because I only know my 2,400 score.

Totally.

But it is cool how they do the superscores.

What's that?

Where, like, if you take the test twice, they'll use your best score from each.

You would say, they're trying to lift the kids up, not tear them down.

I grew up in an age where literally the education, Board of Education was trying to put me down.

No, no, you grew up in the super score age.

Just want to let you know.

I'm just letting you know, like, I was right on the cusp.

Like, there was like a few kids who took the ACTs in my grade, and it was like the weird thing to do.

Like, it wasn't the norm.

Yes.

No, I agree with you, but I'm just saying

when you took the SATs, like the 17 score was your best in all categories for how many times you took it.

Oh, I got a superscript?

Yeah.

Oh, then maybe I did better than 1790 because that doesn't track.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Not that dumb.

Anyways, Matt and Rachel are moving in together.

They're thinking about where they want to move.

They're thinking about where he wants to restart his real estate.

They've been gallivanting all over the Hamptons, being socialites in the city, in the Hamptons.

Double dating in the Hamptons with Tyler C.

and his leading lady.

I like like don't know how I feel about them.

About what?

About who?

Rachel Matt.

Them as a couple.

I liked them a lot.

And then like they had this really public, awkward like thing to deal with.

And now they're just like back to normal.

And I'm like, it's like it's like a Megan and Harry thing.

Like, what am I missing?

Like, how do we get from A to B?

Okay, now that, like, they're so full steam ahead, they're moving in together.

It seems a little early, but not if they've been together this whole time.

Do you think that they

always knew that they were going to get back together?

No.

It was so real.

Like, people are saying, like, was that stage?

It was so real and so raw and so awkward like for us.

Like I don't think you, they're not actors.

Like I don't think you can fake that.

Like I think that was very real.

Right.

But then how can you go from that to this?

I don't know.

This is what I'm saying.

There is a piece missing, just like Lilibet.

How do we go from Oprah to Lilibet?

How do we go from after the final rose to, you know, moving riding in a side car in Manhattan together?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And moving in together.

They're saying he's going to move to Miami, but where's she from?

She's from Georgia.

Yeah.

But I see them living in New York.

I don't know why.

I just feel like they're always here.

They're like Louisiana.

There's like a lot of bachelor this season girls who live in New York.

Like they're always hanging out together.

Yes, they are.

Like the Pipers of the world.

Kid, Chelsea.

Yeah, there's like a cool like socialite crew.

I didn't see that for the season.

No, I didn't, but I'm happy to see it.

Like it's people usually don't move to New York.

Yeah.

They move to LA.

Yeah.

Or they'll move to like Dallas, Chicago, whatever.

And so it's cute to see all the girls like here.

The new season of The Bachelorette is starting tonight, Katie Thurston's season.

I can't wait to continue reading my book tonight.

I can't wait.

Like, it's so terrible, but like,

you know, you just like hope other people fail.

Like, I'm just hoping this bachelor, like,

I hope that the season does poorly, like, ratings-wise, because like, this is what you get for giving us literally the last thing we asked for.

Nobody was championing.

There was no campaign.

There was nothing like, give us Katie.

We need the dildo.

Nobody asked for that.

We need the dildo.

There was an outcry for Michelle.

And maybe the ratings will bounce back.

But I just want you to know, like, this is what you get when you don't give us what we want.

And you just, like, throw a bunch of shit at the wall and hope something sticks.

Yes.

So you won't be watching tonight.

That's what you're saying?

No, I'll definitely be watching.

No, I'm kidding.

I, I have decided, you know, it's a really tough, like, internal thing to struggle with because if I didn't do this for a living, there's, I would have stopped watching years ago.

But, you know, it's so great for, you know, for content and for viewership and my stories.

Like, I love to be like, I claim to be like this, we claim to be the center of all things pop culture.

And The Bachelor, unfortunately, is a part of that.

But I think for my own mental well-being and just like protecting myself from outside negative forces that are toxic to me,

I have to move on.

I do.

And we have a literal TNN show called The Snatchler devoted to recapping The Bachelor.

So it's good for business.

I just like, listen to The Snatcher.

She's going to be everything you need, the correspondent for The Bachelorette the season.

I just can't do it.

Yeah, it's in Snatcher's hands now.

Yeah.

And I do think, I know I always say this, I think it's the end of.

the franchise for me permanently and that just pains me because it's a big part of our job.

Yeah

Bye.

Bye.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Only if it's the fifth and final story.

Oh, oh, oh.

Actually, that's the, that, I don't, that flying is the perfect segue for our fifth and final story.

It gets the people going.

Jeff Bezos is traveling to space with his brother in July.

He said, this is the greatest adventure with my best friend.

That is so sweet.

No, it's not.

Jeff Bezos is.

This is like an annoying rich people thing that I'm annoyed with.

Just, you're going to be more annoyed when I get, when I finish reading the deets.

Like, do you know, like, astronauts literally train their whole life to go to space and like you have literally no formal training?

Jeff Bezos is preparing to go out of this world.

Blue Origin, the aerospace manufacturing and space flight company founded by Jeff Bezos.

Oh, he's trying to compete.

And his brother.

Oh, yeah, he's been trying to compete for a while.

And his brother Mark are preparing.

No, yeah.

Founded by Jeff Bezos, announced that Jeff Bezos and his brother are preparing to fly to space on July 20th on New Shepard's first human flight.

They will also bring along the winner of an auction who paid $2.8 million to also be on this flight.

You're kidding me.

Wait.

Jeff said, ever since I was five years old, I've dreamed of traveling to space on July 20th.

I will take that journey.

That's not like a unique thought.

Like, all kids want to be astronauts.

Like, I just want to say, like, this doesn't make you special.

On July 20th, I will take that journey with my brother, the greatest adventure, with my best friend.

I mean, we can respect siblings who are going to be able to do that.

No, but even that sibling element, like, can't make me hate this story even less.

No, you're about to.

Oh, there's more.

According to the official website, the new, because when you think you're going to space, it's like, okay, like, let's get our space food.

Like, we're going on a vacation to space.

According to the official website, the new Shepherd seats six astronauts, and since the ship is fully autonomous, there is no pilot, everyone is a passenger.

The reusable vehicle takes 11-minute flights into space, designed to take astronauts and research payloads past the Carm Online, which is the internationally recognized boundary of space.

So, this is an 11-minute flight.

This isn't like going on the moon on the 19th century.

This is an 11-minute flight.

Got it.

Okay.

Like, this is obviously

a little dramatic.

Yeah, this is obviously a like big PR stunt for his like fake SpaceX company that I've never fucking heard of.

And this is kind of like once again, really losery of Jeff Bezos.

And I have come to with every story we talk about, whether it was those text messages, I want to get drunk with you, not too drunk, but then I want to wake up and read the newspaper with you.

Like whether it was that or the whole drama with the National Inquirer and that girl and her brother, or now this SpaceX,

he himself, I've come to the conclusion, I need my gavel,

is a loser.

He is.

He's like a kind of like a dope.

Yeah, for sure.

And like, I feel like whenever we talk about Amazon, people don't really like what i have to say because they're constantly like putting down small businesses but they really are great for the consumer like for i use amazon prime grocery i i literally use it all when it comes to amazon i'm on team amazon when it comes to jeff bezos he's a fucking loser yeah for sure and this is just like so obvious like everyone's always comparing him to elon musk now he's obviously trying to compete with elon musk like stay in your lane like you own amazon you like own the washington post weirdly like you do your own thing like leave us alone yeah you stay on earth elon will stay in space yeah like elon's got it covered no he's got it covered.

Like, honestly, like, NASA has it covered, and then Elon Musk is just like even more.

But like, NASA works with Elon.

Yeah, I'm not, like, this, this kind of brings it back to, I don't know, if anyone has been listening to our show from the Morning Breath Days, we kind of had, this was what, when was the Morning Breath?

2017.

We kind of had this fascination with Elon Musk, who was like being spoken about a lot for like making cars, but then also going to space.

And like, we kind of went on this rant, and this is how we like initially became obsessed with him.

Cause like, we're like, what do you even do, bro?

Like, do you make cars or do you go to space?

And it turns out like he really does do both.

And also, now he does like tunnels too, Hyperloop, all sorts of transportation.

Right.

So, like, the person we thought he was is like exactly who he is, you know?

And I feel like he's really carved out a space for himself, being like billionaire, but also like the Albert Einstein people say of our generation.

Go, Albert.

Alright, Muskus says, go, Albert.

Go, Albert.

It's your birthday.

Go, Albert.

So I just think like Jeff Bezos is kind of jealous of the space Elon Musk has carved out for himself because Jeff Bezos, I think what people think of like classic, like, you know, person with too much money, like Jeff Bezos is kind of like the butt of that joke.

People don't always like loop in Elon Musk with that because Elon Musk is like a true genius.

Yeah, but he's also new to the billionaire, like to the, to the number one Forrest list scene.

Yeah.

So I love when we just go down a rabbit hole of like Forbes list and then we just like, you know,

look for all the eligible men on the list.

Yeah, no, it's always a good time.

It's always fun.

But Jeff Bezos is going to space in July with his birthday.

Barely.

Barely.

11 minutes.

Like, I didn't realize.

That's just not what I thought of when you think of going on.

I think you'd chill up there like for a couple weeks they're going yeah right but they're just going to cross the line of the stratosphere and then come back down do you recognize that there is an internationally recognized line for what constitutes space and earth right do you remember when that guy that like stunt man went up like and parachuted off red bull yeah parachuted off like a a spaceship like outside the earth's yeah like he was looking down at earth that was crazy and he like went in and out of consciousness but he's like still alive and fine that's so crazy that was like no offense like the dumbest thing ever like i don't understand people who just like test god that way.

I agree, but it was a really cool video.

When I went on the seaplane, I was like thinking to myself, like, I'm one of those morons who tests God.

No, you're like one of those red-billed people.

Yeah, like total adrenaline.

Total.

That's our show.

We have no TV recap tomorrow.

We have no TV recap either, but there is episode of The Snatcher coming out.

So you'll be able to listen to the Bachelor recap, Bachelorette, excuse me, recap there.

I'll be taking the night off, you know, soaking in the tub, you know, enjoying myself.

Maybe I'll make myself some dinner, like living myself, giving myself peace of mind.

Yes, definitely.

It's going to be a great week, you guys.

Yes, we have, I'm like afraid to say, we have a great guest tomorrow.

The minute that we say that we have guests coming,

even if we say the word guest, then there's a cancel.

Magically disappear.

So we've got a great guest tomorrow and a great guest Wednesday.

Hopefully they both show up.

Yeah.

So that's that on that.
