Good morning, Millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Tuesday.

I hope everyone's having an amazing, beautiful, sunny, bright, positive day.

Yes, so far, so good.

The sun is shining.

I look like a TikToker.

You do.

What's up counts?

Don't I look like...

You look like a kid.

You know, honestly.

I look like I could be friends with Snitch.

This is part of our overall, you know, 2021 Q1 strategy, just trying to target younger demographics.

And so you're dressing like a young person today, and I think the young people will respond.

Thank you, young people.

We see each other.

What are you doing to attract a new demographic today?

I don't know.

The TikTok I spoke so highly about yesterday, like really overperformed on TikTok.

I think because I like made it such a stink on the show, like so many people went from podcast app to TikTok to check it out.

And it did really well, and I'm really proud of myself.

And I also did another TikTok yesterday that is pertinent to today's show because I know I spoke a while about how I was going to stop buying viral makeup from TikTok because these products go viral.

I buy them and they just like never work on me and they don't look half as good as they do on other people.

But I could not resist getting the KVD Vegan

Good Apple Balm Foundation.

It's like this new type of foundation.

It's not liquid.

It's a bomb.

I don't know.

I got it yesterday.

I made a couple TikToks.

I'm wearing it today.

I don't know if anyone can notice, but I'm really pleased with my, not only my content, but my skin today.

I've heard it doesn't wear very well, so we'll see how what happens at the end of the show.

Like over time.

Yeah, like separates, gets a little oily.

I mean, I do have dry skin, so that's not a problem for me.

And it could stand to look like a little, you know, glowy.

Totally.

Well, you look super glowy and your skin does look really good.

So whatever you're doing, keep doing it.

Thank you for, you know, pulling in the Gen Z.

Yes.

And I think we're both doing our part.

We both have a middle part.

I really don't want to be one of those old people who like harps on that trend because like I find it to be lame.

Lame and just like you're showing your age.

Nope.

And like, I don't know who needs to hear this, but like.

Joking about your age is not a personality trait.

Like it never has been.

It never will be.

It does make you interesting.

Just like be confident in who you are.

Sorry.

Totally.

Age with power, like Norma would say.

Yeah.

Age with power, like Norma would say.

And also, I bought a Norma top yesterday.

Do you know Norma sells on Amazon Prime?

Sickening.

Sickening.

So I got a couple of Norma tops yesterday.

I just like need clothes.

Like it weird, like I just farted and it became spring.

And it's like, what the fuck?

So I have like nothing to wear.

All I have is turtlenecks.

No, totally.

Also, speaking of Amazon Prime, you did a Patreon video yesterday that is really just like influencing everyone, including myself.

Claude did a video of her best Amazon finds, like the products that she's bought on Amazon that have changed her life, made her life easier, like things you need to get.

I was influenced to buy a number of things.

What'd you get?

Um, the mini chopper, of course.

Literally, yesterday I made taco meat.

What is normally like 30 minutes?

You know, I chop garlic and onion, and then I brown the meat sauce and everything.

Uh, 10 minutes, like the chopper changed my fucking life.

Wow, and also the video that I put up on Patreon before yours, I'm using a garlic mincer that's like this mechanical

where my hands are like breaking.

So, to go from that mincer, which I thought was like, you know, the pinnacle of invention,

to your chopper.

Literally, you press a button.

It's the craziest thing.

Like, I bought it 100% sure it wasn't going to work.

I just knew that they have these like electric choppers.

So I bought the cheapest one just in case it didn't work.

And it's literally the best thing that I do.

It's like a mini food processor.

And when I'm chopping a lot of things, I do use my food processor.

But why would I make another dish where I don't have to?

No, it's the best.

So I was influenced to buy that.

Influenced to buy the heated

eyelash curler.

Okay, it's good.

Yeah.

And influenced to get those clips.

Every time I finally like get the right hair clips, like the trends change, and now there's a new clip.

I know.

But so, yeah, on our Patreon, I think it was, it ended up like maybe 15 of my favorite things from Amazon.

So, patreon.com/slash a morning to us for that fun little vlog.

And people seem to like it.

So, Jackie's going to do one.

I'm going to do one next month.

I'm really excited.

I've been going through my Amazon purchases.

I actually like buy some really crazy shit that works.

Well, your husband is also like gadget obsessed.

I'm gonna, yours is gonna be really interesting.

I'm gonna bring him into the video because I think he'll have a lot to offer the people.

Like, he brought those LED lights into our life, and and literally I um I've posted the link to them on my Instagram so many times and then I look at like the number of times it was clicked and ordered and it's insane also um Zach like your husband could have like a gadget channel he could be like a tech youtuber he could be like an unboxer and it should literally like his channel should be called gadgets and gizmos aplente no he really could like in a parallel universe he's like a youtuber who does like sneakers and gadgets no no Like totally, like that little bedroom in your house that is like converted into like his space for his sneakers and gadgets.

It's like Maurice's like invention studio.

Yeah, no, but it's like it's like his office.

Beauty and the beast.

That is, he would film in there.

Yeah, no, it is his office and it's also like gadget heaven.

Excuse me.

Oh my God.

Gadgets and gizmos aplenty.

Yes, exactly.

So that will be coming soon.

Head over to patreon.com slash the morning toast.

I just want to shout out really quickly to all the Jewish toasters who are dealing with what I'm dealing with right now, which is not only like carb

withdrawal, but it's the unbearable constipation from matzah, like literally eating cardboard.

Like it is so torturous, but like yesterday I was so hungry and I just could not find anything to eat.

So I had like

two huge pieces of matzah and then I'm like, I haven't shit today.

Oh yeah, that's right.

And then I also had matzah crackers with my taco meat for dinner.

Like it's just like a lot of

what's the um

the word with a B that like it like blocks your stomach.

Like it's a lot of bran.

No, it's like

branch.

No, it's like, blocks your stomach.

No, like, it's like,

does anyone know what I'm saying?

I don't even know what you're like trying to say.

It's like, okay, okay, let me try to explain.

It's like a word that starts with B

that, like, I'm not sure what the word actually means.

That's the problem.

I can't explain it.

You don't know the word and you don't know what I'm saying.

No, yeah, so, but I just know it's like a B, and it's like when like your stomach is like completely bound up, like

with like

starch.

Do you know what the fuck I'm talking about?

Not really.

Yeah, no, I'm not sure.

But maybe someone is shouting it into their

podcast.

It's like,

whatever.

That's what I'm feeling.

Like, lots of,

what's the word?

Like, whatever.

I'm like clogged up.

And I know a lot of people are too, because the matzah is the devil.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

I had a matzah pizza last night.

And to be honest, like I was already feeling constipated before Passover.

I'm not, I guess I'm just like not having enough fiber.

You should add a supplement to your daily routine.

I know, but then it's just like one more job for me, you know?

And I'm a girl with no job, so that's not gonna happen.

So you can't have a supplement, unfortunately.

Well, no, my matzo pizza was pretty good.

And yeah, Passover's having it's always like you want to use it as a reason to like do no carbs.

Cause you're like, okay, I can't have bread.

I'll cut out the other carbs too.

Maybe lose a few LBs on this journey.

Not what's happened.

I literally eat a coconut macaroon every 30 minutes.

I hate coconut macaroons.

I love it.

They are a Passover delicacy, and I fucking hate them.

You're the one that comes in the can.

I have all of them because I hosted a seder.

Like, I ordered macaroons, people brought macaroons, I bought macaroons.

I have every kind of macaroon, chocolate-covered, like everything.

I have macaroons that are the ones from the can that are personally my favorite.

Then I also have, like, I got from Magnolia Bakery You know, they do kocho for Passover treats.

They have chocolate-covered matzah, which was sold out by the time that I got there, but they have fresh macaroons and chocolate-covered macarons, and it's like literal shredded coconut.

I love, it's like, that's really one of the privileges of living in New York since it's such like a Jewish town.

If you go to a majority of restaurants in the breadbasket and ask for matzah, they'll have it.

That's so sweet.

I know.

So that's something we definitely like take for granted, like living in New York.

It's really nice.

That is nice.

I also haven't been to a restaurant like since Passover, but I'll try.

I have two quick things to say.

Please do.

The first is that yesterday there was a e-true Hollywood story marathon on E that I watched.

I watched the Spice Girls one, the Sex in the City one, and then first half of the clueless one, which really wasn't good.

I don't don't think there was just like enough material there for clueless, you know?

Yeah.

But first of all, I learned so much, like, because Spice Girls, like, I was really, really young.

I didn't know a lot about like the salaciousness of it all, like, especially what Mel B went through with Eddie Murphy.

Like, there was this whole thing where he like literally denied that he was the father of their baby and like wouldn't pay child support.

It was like super messy in public.

Um, and I didn't realize that Jerry was the one who really broke up the group.

Of course, what'd you think?

I was just so young.

Like, I was just like, Spice Girls are here, and then they're not here.

Like, I wasn't looking at the blogs, you know.

She was the Zane.

You know, it was crazy um and then the sex in the city one was really really interesting they kind of they really captured the show as like a cultural phenomenon but also what i found to be so interesting was like how all the women got to like for me it was like i didn't know any of them before and they all just got lucky and got this role but they were all like really esteemed actresses especially cynthia nixon like who was like one of the first people ever to be on two broadway shows at once like she would run from theater to theater during intermission wow yeah like so i just learned a lot and then towards the end of the day they started playing like the newer ones remember when they did a resurgence?

And my God, those new ones were terrible.

Like just comparing that to the old ones,

even I watched the Kim one again and I love it and I cry every time they talk about Alice Johnson and I just love it.

It's really not that well done compared to the other ones used to be two hours long.

Like the Sex of the City one was so in-depth and it's like they really have this amazing franchise.

Like each of Hollywood story is so recognizable and people are obsessed with documentaries these days.

Like I can't believe E hasn't taken more advantage of that.

I think they tried.

They stunk it up.

Like, the Kim one did no service.

The narrator was giving me like major, like, Emily and Paris social media vibes, you know, like not only Kim's social media, like, it was so robotic and like stupid.

And I was like, I can't believe I thought this was good when it was on.

And it really took me seeing some of the best work from like the early 2000s and comparing it to the one they did last year.

And it's just, it didn't cut it.

Do you think that it's because in the ones from the early 2000s, like one, you didn't know a lot of that backstory?

And two, there wasn't social media at the time.

So even if you were older and were able to keep up, like you wouldn't have known the ins and outs.

Whereas today, we know everything about our favorite celebrities, especially Kim Kardashian.

There's nothing that each true Hollywood story could tell you that you don't already know.

Fine, that's a fair point.

But I wasn't upset with the Kim one for not telling me things I didn't know.

It was just like such low production value, you know?

Okay.

Like it was just shitty.

And

yeah, I stand by what I said.

I hear you.

And it could have been way longer.

They just kept skipping.

Like, then she launched KKW Beauty.

Then she got Alice Marie.

Like, what happened in between?

Like, slow down because it used to be two hours and now it was one hour.

Yeah.

So I just think, like, if anyone at E is listening, like, put more money, resources into revamping the ETrue Hollywood franchise.

It could really revitalize your network, which desperately needs it.

Yeah, I think that's a, that's a very fair assessment.

And then the second thing I wanted to say was yesterday was just like such a busy day for me work-wise.

And I'm really now working on, um, you know, putting the wheels in motion for my next tour.

It won't be for a while.

It'll be at the end of the year, but you know, you got to book dates and cities.

And I just feel like so much has changed within our country.

Like people moved out of big cities.

And like, I just, I just don't know where to go.

You know, I feel like I'm starting from scratch.

So I just wanted to put a PSA out there.

Like, if you want to come see me on tour, can you just like send me a message and like tell me where you live and like where you'd like me to come?

Just so I can get some like if you start to see some similarities in the answers, you could

about to put together.

Remember like when you were in college and you had to use like web monkey surveys?

Like I'm gonna fucking put one together just so I can like, where are the people?

Where did everyone go?

Yeah.

I don't know.

You'll find out.

So please, just like speak up.

Love to see it.

Thanks.

How was your day?

My day was really good.

Honestly, I thought yesterday's episode of The Toast was so funny.

I was thinking about it all day long, just laughing out loud to myself.

Like so many parts.

First,

like the thing with the dressing rooms and then my outfit from the day before and obviously the Krispy Kreme CEO.

Like there was just so many funny moments and it really carried me through the day.

And I also just feel like it was just a great slice of toast.

Yeah.

Also, I'm so glad you brought that up.

Just to update everyone from yesterday, we have heard from the Krispy Krem team.

We have a delivery scheduled for next week after

Passover.

Because somebody DM'd me and they were like, I was literally panicking listening to today's episode because I know you didn't realize that it's Passover.

Like if you guys did get a delivery, you wouldn't be able to eat them.

So the second they reached out, I told Jackie, I'm like, make sure they know to deliver them after Passover.

Next week, hopefully our box of original glaze will be arriving.

And I'm definitely interested in doing a mukbang.

Are you?

Always.

Always.

I love just eating on camera.

Yeah.

Call me Trisha Paytas.

Can't wait.

Other than that, Bruce got checked up from his post-neutering.

Oh, that's good.

Everything's looking good on the Bruce front.

Thank God.

And yeah, just getting back into the swing of things, you know?

Yeah, no, it's going to be a busy week, but you know what?

Hustle, hustle, hustle, meetings, meetings, meetings.

I also had to read like all night last night because I finished the book for the Redheads and we are recording today.

I'm very excited.

If you have questions about the book or, you know, any other book that you saw me read this month, just questions about books in general for me and the gals email us the redheadsbook club at gmail.com fabulous we'd love to see it i heard the book is causing quite a stir amongst the community you did hear that lots of people having lots of thoughts i did yeah no it's it's extremely interesting book i'm really excited to talk about it um

so yeah i think i think with that yeah no i i agree off our chests we can get into the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast

and you might have noticed this sickening plant behind me or as we like to call it, plant.

McPlant.

Oh, sorry, McPlant.

Okay, let's get into our first story that is just so weird.

Okay.

Rachel Bilson is spilling the tea on her interesting interaction with her former classmate and fellow Hollywood star Rami Malik.

This is really weird.

Yeah.

While speaking on Dak Shepard and Monica Padman's Armchair Expert podcast, new podcaster Rachel Bilson opened up about the time the Oscar winner, Rami Malik, asked her to delete their high school photo off of Instagram.

For a refresher, they went to high school together and she posted.

And they were like friends.

Yeah, she says that they were friends.

She posted a throwback image of her and Rami elated to be in New York City when they were teenagers.

At the time, she commented on the fashion and wrote in the caption, Hey, at Rami Malik, where'd you get that gold chain?

Hashtag tbt hashtag oscar worthy hashtag don't forget the little people so this was when like there was so much oscar buzz for him as freddie mercury and like he had and he might have even just won so he was like really in the news and she was just like hopping on the bandwagon yeah she said remy was a good friend of mine we were in the same crew in high school i think oh sorry rom we were in the same crew in high school we did the crucible together senior year we were the leads in it together all these things talking about how they were friends Obviously, he gets super famous and he's always been extremely talented, even in high school.

I had posted a throwback of us from our senior trip to new york we're super nerdy just the dorkiest picture of the both of us but i throw it up because it's funny and i think it's so important to be able to make fun of yourself but after sharing the image she said that rami reached out to her directly however it wasn't what she expected she recalled I don't usually check my DMs on my Instagram.

Maybe a week goes by and I actually look and I have a message from Rami.

But it wasn't like, hey, how are you?

It was straight to, I would really appreciate if you take that down.

I'm a really private person.

She was like, oh shit, it's Dale Central.

she said i got really hot and started sweating i'm all nervous like oh god what did i do he was a really good friend it's a funny picture you know i don't take myself that seriously according to rachel he just didn't like the picture of himself she's friends with his stylist the stylist was like well it's not a great picture of him um

and so

here's the thing i'm struggling between between like really relating to someone who doesn't like a photo of himself but like from high school like i just feel like at that point as adults like we let go of our high school insecurities i don't know i feel bad for rachel because like he could have been nicer And, but like, Rami Malik, like, is weird.

Like, that's like his whole brand.

He's like a weirdo, Mr.

Robot, you know?

So, like, I don't know.

This whole story just like makes me uncomfortable for literally everyone.

It's all uncomfortable.

But my question is, like, she was famous first and like she became a huge star.

When she was a teenager.

Yeah, for, like, after high school for a long time.

Like, were they friends then?

You know, because she sort of jumps from high school and then Rami's this big star.

It's like, what about the time that you were a big star?

So maybe like Rami's like holding, harboring some resentment from like Rachel getting really famous on on the OC, et cetera, and like not, you know, remembering the little people.

And now that it's Ramy who's made it big, Rachel is like, you know, being left in the dust.

Yeah.

And she's like, don't forget the little people.

That was the hashtag.

And it's like, but you're not little people.

You're summer robbers.

Also, I know Rachel Bilson like has a huge pit right now because this is now became a huge story, which is like the last thing Rami Malik wanted.

So like, and I know she didn't mean it.

She was probably just like, you know, you're on a podcast, you're sharing a story.

You forget like the implications of it.

And now it's like all over e-news.

And I have a pit for her.

I really do.

Because I think she's probably a really nice girl.

100%.

I have a pit for her.

Like, that is just the worst feeling ever.

Like.

I understand why she posted the photo.

I understand why she felt awkward.

I understand why she still feels awkward.

I don't know if the friendship can survive this.

I really don't.

The thing is, is that I don't think there was a friendship to survive.

Yeah.

It's abundantly clear that these two are just not on the same page.

But I guess like you learn something new every day.

Romi Malik and Summer Roberts went to high school together.

Yes.

And in reading this story, I learned something else new about the high school that they went to.

Two other famous people went there.

What's the high school?

Notre Dame High School.

Two other people went there and have a photo together from their time there.

Catherine McPhee and Megan Markle.

Shut.

I know.

And then I clicked on the photo.

Look at this photo.

They both look exactly the same.

And this is like when they were in like a theater program together there.

You see that.

We have to post it to our Instagram.

Okay.

But also that that actually really tracks because after the Oprah interview, David Foster and Catherine McPhee were spotted out having dinner with the Royals Harry and Megan.

So of course they knew each other from high school.

That's actually so sweet.

I'm happy Megan has like a friend, you know, like a longtime friend and Catherine McPhee is not thirsty.

No, and that's a really great duo.

Oh my god, that's crazy.

That's just like Erin Foster's like so close to Megan Markle.

And like I know Erin Foster.

Like she wrote, her and Sarah like wrote something on my book.

So like I am like three degrees of separation away from Megan Markle, not to make it about me.

But here you go.

Making it about me.

So just some interesting high school factoids.

And what is it?

Where is

Notre Dame High School?

I believe that it's in California.

Oh, that makes sense.

Yeah, and it's just like turns out fabulous famous people.

That's also like Marymount.

I think that school is in California.

That's where the Kardashians went, and that's also where Olivia Jade and her sister went.

Yeah, but I think that school like turns out famous people because it's like the children of famous people who wind up being...

The children of like wealthy people.

Wealthy or famous who wind up being wealthy and or famous themselves.

That's interesting.

Yeah, that's fair.

So that's the coincidence there.

Is Notre Dame like a performing arts school?

They obviously have an incredible performing arts program.

I'm sorry, I didn't study up at this school before I came up to the show.

Okay, I was just wondering.

Sorry.

But definitely do some research and find out maybe that's where you should have gone.

By the way, if I could redo my life over, I know I really do have no regrets, no regrets, no regrets.

But the fact that I never like was in performing arts, I wrote about this a lot in my book.

Like it's one of my biggest regrets.

Like even in my, like, okay, I like my school, so I don't wish I went to a different school.

But like the fact that I was never in a play and I wasn't in the choir for more than 35 seconds like that is like a huge letdown for me because like when in my life am i gonna be able to express myself in that way yeah and i'm really gonna encourage my children to like follow their passions here and now you get to express yourself every day i know but i get in trouble when i sing so that's true but you know

you have to fight for your passions i know it's just um It's just one of my, like, my few life regrets.

Okay.

My other life regrets.

It's a good lesson to learn.

And I think that's definitely something that you'll take with you like to your future children.

And you'll instill in them and they will be so passionate about what they do.

One of my other regrets is not getting into the cop car.

I think I've shared that story a few times.

You have.

What are your some of your life's biggest regrets?

My biggest life regret was going on that teen tour that summer.

I just feel like I could, like, that's literally my biggest regret because everything else, it's like, yeah, I've made mistakes, but you know,

you learn something, Suez Canal.

And so, but that, like, nothing was learned.

It was a complete waste of like what could have been a fabulous summer for me.

I could have gone back to Pat Camp.

I was a little chunky.

I could have lost a few pounds.

And instead, like the whole trajectory of my life was just off.

No, it wasn't because you took control.

No, I would still be sitting here if I didn't go on that teen tour.

And that's why it's

something that I regret.

Right.

Because it wouldn't have

a summer of my life that was wasted.

And I would still be who I am today, which I'm happy with, but I would have had a better summer in the 11th grade.

And you know what?

At that point in my life, like I could have really used a good summer.

Right.

And that was just my

traumatic, like hard friend-making experience.

Yeah.

That's the last thing I fucking needed.

Well, honestly, that's another thing you really learned growing up.

Like, and I think Carol Radzwell was trying to tell us this, like, as a young, fabulous person, you only have so many, like, fabulous summers, especially like when you're in high school.

Like, those summers are so formative.

You have so many like first-time experiences, your first kiss.

Like, I just feel like I didn't take, and I used to love summer, don't get me wrong.

Like, I used to live 10 months or two, but I feel like I just took it for granted.

Like, those summers just flew by and like, those were like some of the best summers of my life.

Yeah, and I also think, I think in high school, you do a good job of taking advantage of the summer, but some people do start to feel pressure to like do a program that's gonna advance them for college or whatever.

Like, no, in high school, enjoy your summers.

They are meant just to be pure fun.

And then also in college, you definitely want to make your spend your summers intentionally get an internship that will help get a job.

And it is really important in like the job search to have had those internships.

But I do think that you should prioritize your summers because you'll never get those back unless you become a teacher, which is a wonderful reason to become a teacher.

I could not agree more.

Of course, you should have other better motives like wanting to help the youth, but I don't think it's bad to have summers off on the top of your list because I feel that wholeheartedly.

Then

Carol Rodswell shouldn't become a teacher because then she would have an eternity of good summers left.

That's not what she was saying about good summers left.

I know, I know, I know, I know.

She meant like her age.

Yeah.

And just like overall venaciousness.

I wonder how many summers she has left, or do you think she's done?

No, I think she wound up having more summers than she expected.

Yeah.

That's what happens when you date a younger man.

Mm-hmm.

Or that's just like what happens when you age with power.

You can have as many summers as you want.

So true.

Okay, ready for our next story?

It's a little satanic news.

Ooh, satanic news.

Nike denies involvement.

Who?

Nike.

Oh.

You know, Megan Markle.

I think you heard of Nike.

You said it weird.

Roll the tape.

You guys, everyone, rewind and let us know.

Did I say it weird?

You did.

You were like nine.

You did.

I remember she say it weird.

Yeah.

Wow.

You did.

I won't forget this.

Nike denies involvement with Lil Nas ex Satan shoes containing human blood.

What?

Yep.

I don't understand this whole saga.

Nike is collaborating.

I'm sorry.

They don't want to get involved.

Scratch out.

Start from the

involve tapes.

You're having trouble with the story.

I know.

There's so much at play.

And I think it's like the satanicness of the story.

By the way.

It's like...

I don't want to.

The power of the devil has entered your spirit.

Like, that's what's happening.

Also, I don't want to to make jokes about the devil because, as I'm learning from this Lil Nas controversy, like, you can't joke about the devil.

I don't know much about like the devil or Satan because we don't have that in Judaism, but I'm just going to stay out of this one.

Lil Nas is collaborating with the streetwear company MSCHF on a pair of Satan shoes, only 666 pairs of which went on sale on Monday.

They did sell out.

The controversial kicks, which are apparently modified Nike Air Max 97s, are decorated with a pentagram pendant and a reference to Luke 10.18, a Bible verse about Satan's fall from heaven.

I wonder if Carlton Jebia got a pair.

The sneakers also contain a drop of human blood in the soul of the shoe,

soul S-O-L-E,

drawn from members of the MSCHF team, the company told NBC News on Sunday.

News of the shoes drew outrage over the Palm Sunday weekend.

Some critics slammed both Lilnaz and Nike, but Nike was quick to distance itself from the shoes, pointing out that they're adaptations of existing products.

They said, we do not have a relationship with Lil Nas or MSCHF.

Nike did not design or release these shoes, and we do not endorse them.

So why do people think Nike is a part of this?

Because it's a Nike sneaker that they redesigned.

There's the check.

Yeah, so I think also this is now going to become litigious for Nike for like reset, like for all of this, but it's just like the satanic element, which really has people all riled up.

I just can't believe there's 666 people who like would wait online and crave a pair of shoes with a drop of human blood in it.

But people are weird.

People are weird and it's more than that because they like sold out so quickly.

Right.

I'm good on the satanic elements personally.

You know, I have enough devilish people in my life.

I don't need to harbor the spirit of the devil.

But I like that song.

Call me when you want.

Call me when you want.

I don't know what he's actually saying, but I really like that song.

It's going viral on TikTok.

It'll hit the radio soon.

Is that Call Me By Your Name?

Yes, but it's Call Me, maybe he's saying, Call me by Your Name.

Yeah, because the song is called Montero, Call Me By By Your Name.

Call Me by Your Name.

No, that doesn't sound right.

I'm pretty sure he's saying, Call me what you want, but maybe he's not.

And the music video for the song is satanic as well.

Lil Nas is seemed that he's seduced out of what to bear is appears to be the Garden of Eden and falls into hell and gives the devil a lap dance.

And he takes a stripper pole down to hell.

And people are all outraged about it.

And I don't know enough to like say something, but I thought it was funny.

And he's quite a good dancer.

Very limber.

I didn't see that.

I didn't expect that.

Because he's always wearing clothes that are quite restrictive, you know, like those cowboy outfits, like you can't really move your arms.

But he was wearing spandex and he really laid it down.

Hmm.

Well, that's the latest in devil worship news.

Yeah, no, we will keep you updated on all the news in the satanic world.

I was just about to make a really bad joke.

I'm so glad I didn't.

That's called growth.

Okay, ready for our next story?

Yeah.

Melissa Rycroft reveals she was.

former bachelorette reveals she was turned down for Real Houses of Dallas twice.

You know Melissa Rycroft.

So show me pictures?

She's like former bachelorette from like 10 years ago.

Oh, okay.

And she sometimes guests judges on

DCC making the team.

Oh, cool.

She's a former DCC, I believe.

Now she lives in Dallas and they won't let her on the show.

Why?

I don't know.

It kind of like makes sense, but I didn't know they had like such a high bar.

I would think that any like former sort of famous influencer person could get on if they wanted to.

I find that so shocking.

Yeah, she recently did a QA on Instagram.

Someone asked, why would you never go on the Real House Eyes of Dallas?

She said, I've been interviewed and turned down twice.

I am so not housewife material.

Well, maybe it's just that she really doesn't know any of the women.

Like, that's a possibility.

You have to be tied a little bit.

Melissa Rycroft is the one who Jason Mesnick dumped for Molly.

Oh, so she didn't win.

No, but she became the bachelorette.

Oh, right, right, right.

So she could have been

Mrs.

Mesnick.

Jason Mesnick.

And that's when he did a full Mesnick

and went back.

That was an idea.

He was iconic.

The original Ari.

He was so messy.

Okay, got it.

Thank you for explaining that because I'm like, I've literally never heard of this girl in my life.

Is she married to her partner from The Bachelor?

No.

I don't think so.

But they have three kids.

I just thought, I think this is interesting.

Yeah, no, I have to look at her page to see if she actually is housewife material because it's not just being well-known that.

makes you a good housewife.

Like you have to be stylish.

You have to be a little crazy.

You have to have something interesting about your life, like an interesting husband or like a mom who's crazy But I also think like what you're up to in your life like needs to coincide with what's going on at the franchise currently and I don't think a former reality TV just like mom blogger would really work with the real house eyes of Dallas crew right now, right?

But I do think in other franchises

OC like they could really benefit from an influencer Amanda Stan Audreena Patridge one time was like rumored to be on the show.

I think that they could benefit from an influencer on the show.

So I think it just depends on like where they're at in the season of the show.

But like right now Real Houses of Dallas, even though this season is like not its best, the cast is really

elevated.

Highland Park, you know, they're, they're a serious bunch of women.

So, and I also think they run in a very similar social circle currently.

Which is like a very elite

society, Dallas.

Yeah, but like, they know each other off the show.

They hang out off the show.

They're invited to the same party.

So I think that like in staying with that, they have a good mix of women.

Yeah, no.

Now that I've thought it over, she makes sense to have auditioned and she makes sense to have not gotten the gig.

Yeah, but I think like if this was Real House Eyes of Salt Lake City, Rach Parcell should get the gig.

100%.

That, like, Real House Eyes of Salt Lake City is like an amazing show, but the only thing that it's missing is Rach Parcell.

Or a Parcell Scala girl.

Because then Rach could, like, you know, maybe Rach is too busy.

She's like 1,000 kids.

Like, maybe Rach could just like pop in on her sister's filming, you know?

I don't know.

I would take any of them.

It's got to be Rach.

Of course it has to be Rach, but I would really take any of them.

I would take, yeah.

They just have such interesting lives.

Or I would even take the mom.

Like, yeah, yeah, and then we can get all of them.

Yeah, that's actually better.

Yeah, that works.

I agree.

Some franchises would really benefit from like a digital personality or like someone with like a big following from a reality show and some would not.

And I agree.

Dallas is a little too high society for that.

So I think they made the right decision, but I'm just, I'm so interested.

Interviewed twice.

So they thought about it and they came to this conclusion.

Yeah, no, and she wants it bad.

She does.

Are we ready for our next story?

Yes.

It's a little fast food news.

That's the best type of news.

It's the best type of news.

And, like, honestly, the game is changing.

Not on Passover, though.

I'm so hungry.

Pizza Hut is redesigning their drive-thru.

And I think, like, it's the drive-through is an amazing concept.

Drive-through?

Yeah.

And now they're going to have the Hutt lane, which will offer convenience and speed without customers ever having to park their cars.

It's to minimize the human contact element.

Customers can place orders through the

Pizza Hut app, website, and the restaurant's phone number through a new lane, and they will just be able to pick up their

pass.

I think that while the drive-through lane is

the present, it's nearly perfect.

Like, there are ways to modernize it and bring it into the future.

And I think that this could be like the beginning, obviously, of a new chapter for Pizza Hut, but like for so many other franchises, like that line shouldn't be that long.

No, I agree.

But at the same time, like some of that is unavoidable because, yes, if you live near Pizza Hut and you're getting Pizza Hut for your family for dinner, it's easy to place the order and then go.

But most fast food people are driving through.

It's just like, like, hey, should we stop here?

You're not planning it.

So you're not going to whip out your app 10 minutes before.

Most of it is like roadside.

You're on a driveway, on a road trip.

So sometimes, yes, at a local pizza hut, a lot of people get pizza hut for their families, like for dinner.

That I understand.

But all the times that like we've ever had drive-through, it's not like.

I'm never planning it.

Maybe once in a while, but yeah.

But no, I know I'm going to get McDonald's like on this three-hour road trip.

I don't know which specific McDonald's I'm going to get to and when I'm 15 minutes away to put in.

So this is good.

They should keep both.

I don't think the drive-thru is ever going to go away because it's literally so brilliant.

It's so brilliant and so iconic.

I'm like literally like my mouth is watering from this conversation.

I know, but you can have French fries.

Why don't you get some French fries today?

I mean, French fries, I guess I can.

Because, you know, I'm trying to be like really K-for P, you know?

French fries are the most K-for-P.

People, like, they're not bread.

They can be breaded.

Like, you don't know what's on the outside.

No, no, you know it's potato and oil.

You know that.

I'll think about it.

Yeah.

No, like, that's like one of the joys of Passover are French fries and chips.

Yes.

Chips.

Chips.

Chips.

Chips.

Chips.

Love chips.

Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Wow, that happens so fast.

Sure.

It's a little survey news that's showing the preferences of people.

Okay.

The return of the dad bod.

A survey finds people prefer a softer male body type.

75%.

I'm one of those people.

75% of respondents to a survey conducted by dating.com said that they preferred the body shape to a more toned one.

What's the website that did it?

Dating.com.

Oh.

The term dad bod was first popularized in the mid-2010s to harshly critique the beach bodies of actors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Chris Pratt, and the non-traditional Hollywood physiques of actors such as Jason Siegel and Seth Rogan.

Dating.com did a survey conducted from 2,000 participants and found that 20% of participants claimed that bod shape did not matter to them at all when it came to finding a partner.

It also found that only 15% liked a Barbie or Ken-like body type.

So very fit and in-shaped bodies are seen as ideal when it comes to attracting a partner.

However, the users of dating.com just prove that isn't always the case when it comes to real-life romance.

I'm so glad everyone's getting on board.

Movies and TV shows tend to promote the idea of Barbie and Ken body types, giving people the idea they need to look similar in order to find their match.

We are happy to confirm that is not how the real world really operates.

Yeah, because, like, okay, yes, it's nice when someone's chiseled.

When they're laying on top of you, they're hard.

Like, don't you want someone soft and cuddly?

Yeah, no, and apparently they do.

No, I'm so glad that, like, we are changing the stigma, especially around men.

Yeah.

So I think that was really interesting 75 of surveys of survey surveyes

of

of servitude

of those surveys surveyes 75 of those surveys yeah that's right that's right said dad bad check well i'm so glad to hear that i'm definitely on board with that as well and i'm so glad i usually have like a lot of unpopular opinions you know so now it's nice to know like no i actually have a popular opinion you're in the majority yeah like i like to wear my bra around the house like other people don't like i'm just like weird i'm just quirky and different.

You're so quirky.

I'm not like other girls.

Before we wrap up, there was no TV on yesterday, but I did catch up on RuPaul's drag race and they did one of my favorite episodes, which is the roast challenge, where like I always tell you this, and I never know if you're listening.

But when it comes to being like a perfect drag race.

No, I'm always listening.

When no, with drag race, like you do sometimes tune me out, like I could tell.

Literally never.

Okay.

Well, so what is it?

It's you projecting because that's what you do when I talk about like my passions.

okay so what

what is it what do i always say like it takes to be like a real like the winner okay obviously the glam has to be on point but the comedy too okay you are listening so yeah you need to be like a well-rounded queen and the roast really separates the boys from the men like or the men from the women, whatever.

Because like you really need to hold your own and like doing stand-up is like so hard.

And so it's always my favorite challenge because for me, like I always am drawn to like the funny queens.

So they always show up and show out.

Candy Muse, who is my favorite, who's like not a winner, finally won her first challenge because she's so funny.

And I'm just so happy for her.

Then it was like all these fashion queens, like who are like not funny, like Simone, that's the one who Rihanna DM'd, like who was like definitely gonna win.

Like

she was in the bottom.

Like she really flopped.

Like it was not good.

Then Gomic, who's a real fashion queen, who I'm obsessed with,

she She really killed it.

So I don't know.

It was like kind of like an episode where we reevaluated like everything we thought we knew.

But basically this queen Utica went home and she's like quirky.

Like, and I don't love the quirky queens, like crystal method from last season.

Like, I don't, some people are drawn to quirky queens.

Like, I'm drawn to like

plus eyes and funny queens.

Like, that's who I'm drawn to.

But some people are drawn to, like, they're artists, and they're just like weird and quirky.

And Utica was one of those queens.

And for some reason, like, and she's like super nice.

And she's very, like, they did this challenge, the doppelganger challenge, where they paired up.

queens and they had to make each other look like each other and she was like very very nervous because she was paired with Simone who's black and she didn't want to you know wear an afro she didn't want to cultural appropriate so she's very like sensitive to other people's feelings and she's just like this really sweet sweet queen and then in the roast she comes out she calls everyone fat like she's being insanely fucking mean she calls michelle visage old she calls lonnie love fat she says lonnie love doesn't have a career like she like it was just crazy and i'm like yutico what are you doing yunica went home obviously because she's stunk but then also like when you're in the bottom two you lip sync for your life and simone is just like a way better lip-syncer.

And it was, it was Yunica's time to go, but it was just like the craziest thing.

Like, this, this queen who was like so like sensitive and like really worried about like offending people.

And I get that it's a roast, but it was the nice girl roast.

They roasted all the miscongenialities for the last couple years.

So it was like, you were supposed to be nice.

Um,

it wasn't nice.

Was she funny?

No, that's the thing.

And that's what RuPaul said.

It's like a roast.

Like, you can be mean, but if you are, like, it has to be really funny.

Like, you just came out and you were like

observing things you're fat you're old like it was so weird and so it was her time to go and now there's only five left olivia lux has got to go you know and this time i feel like sometimes happens like on other shows like the bachelor you like you know when someone just like accidentally makes it to the top five yes olivia lux had like two good weeks olivia lux is not a winner she has to go rose got mick

uh Simone and Candy Muse are, I think, are going to be the top four.

And Candy Muse is definitely not winning.

So I think Gottmick, Rose, like I really did not like her.

Rose is, say what you want about her.

She's an all-around queen.

She sings, she dances.

She's hysterical.

She's got the looks.

Rose could win.

I think of Rose or Gottmick, even though I love Simone.

She has just like, I don't know.

I don't know.

I'd be happy with any of them.

That's a thing.

And I never, I've never really had that before.

I'm always like really gunning for one person.

I would love Candy Muse to win, but like, she's just not a winner.

Like, I know that about her.

So then between Gottmick, Rose, and Simone, I would be so happy if any of them win.

And I really mean that.

Wow, that's beautiful.

Yeah.

So it's actually been like one of the best seasons like ever.

And it's been COVID.

Like they haven't been able to like, they usually have an audience for the roast.

And they usually bring in, sometimes they bring in like army vets and they do like

drag makeovers.

They bring in like, you know, random people and do drag makeovers.

There's been none of that, but it's still been really good.

Oh, that's great.

And they usually have the best guest judges, like the biggest stars.

Everyone's dying to be on.

Right, but they haven't been.

They've had a few in rotation who stay, like Lonnie Love has been on.

She usually would be on like once a season.

Now now she's been on like five times yeah because they're keeping a few people in rotation in the bubble in the bubble and then just keeping like ross matthews carson and michelle visage um like they're the stay they they always stay so i feel like it's been a show that's been completely unimpacted by covid and i've been like so happy to have it back and it's been one of my favorite seasons it's been they just got like an amazing group of queens like everyone is so talented and um they had like a few people like come in remotely and hathaway came in remotely just like give him a pep talk and next week Scarlett Johansson's coming in remotely, but like who cares?

Damn.

Unless Colin Jose makes an appearance.

He might.

Can't be bothered.

Well, I'll be watching the other Boleyn girl spoon.

Speaking of Scarlett Johansson.

Is she in it?

Yes, she plays Mary Boleyn.

Is that the other Boleyn?

Yeah, she's.

And then Anne Boleyn is played by Natalie Portman.

I don't know how we've never seen this movie.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'm just like not a huge Natalie Portman girly.

Me neither.

But I really should be because she's like our Jewish queen.

Yeah, no.

I've never, okay, ready?

I've never seen Black Squan.

Swan.

I think that movie with Ashton Kutcher is just like a sad attempt at being the meal-coonest Justin Timberlake movie, Friends with Benefits.

And it's just so bad.

It's like, we get it, you're a doctor.

You could still have a boyfriend.

I just like hate movies with those like, oh, I can't.

I have a boyfriend.

Like, nobody cares.

And then, like, I don't even know what else she's been in.

I'm just like not a Natalie Portman girly whatsoever.

No, me neither.

And I don't think like that would surprise anyone.

No, I know.

I just think she like takes herself really seriously, especially in her films.

And I like to watch fun films.

I agree.

I love a fun film.

And then she's also, she's in like Thor and Star Wars and like a lot of superhero movies.

Oh, that's why I don't watch that.

Oh, and she was Jackie.

Jackie husband.

Oh, I did see that movie and I thought she was terrible.

So I think this confirms.

I'm just not a Natalie Portman girl.

Like, no shade if you are.

Like, have so much respect for you.

Like, live your life, be your best self.

I just have personally made the choice not to live.

for Natalie Portman.

And

you all just have to respect that.

We do.

We really do.

Other than that, I think tonight I'm going to turn my TV on for the first time in like
