Good morning, millennials.
Welcome back to the morning toast.
Happy hump day.
It looks like a hump day.
It feels seems like a hump day, but it doesn't feel like a hump day because Theo is not here today, and that is on me.
I apologize.
I have things to do after the show, and was unfortunately not able to bring my son to work today.
But that is, you know, the life of a mom.
Like, things are up and down all the time.
Totally, totally.
Maybe you guys can celebrate hump day later.
Yeah, you know what's funny is I can always tell when we get like a resurgence of or just like a wave of new toasters because I get so many comments like literally for the past two weeks thought Theo was your son.
Right.
Your human son.
Right.
Which is why it's important to have him here to show everyone.
But this is Theo.
He's not a human, but he's also not a dog.
Part of my rationale behind not bringing Theo today was really inspired by a conversation we had on yesterday's controversy from yesterday.
Due to the hypocrisy that I was exuding
unbeknownst to me,
where, you know, I was talking about how I really don't like watching shows that use real animals because it's like, what is an animal doing on a set?
And as those words came out of my mouth, my animal was in fact on a set.
Now, yes.
You're what?
Technical animal.
So, I don't know.
Maybe there's going to be some changes.
No.
No, I totally get it.
I would have never said that if I knew
where this was headed.
I realized the hypocrisy in my statements yesterday, but Theo, this is not a set.
Yeah, and you know what?
I'll give you your rebuttal.
Okay.
If you will.
Do you have a problem with animals on reality TV shows?
Exactly.
Or no, no.
Like, if let's say, you know, Jessica Alba is starring in a movie and she brings her dog to set like and hangs out in the trailer, I think that's okay.
Yeah.
No, but the,
I understand what you're saying.
So if anyone like tries to come for you, just say, I don't have a problem with animals on reality TV shows.
They're in their element and we're just watching them in their element.
But I'll have to figure out, you know, what to do.
for hump day when Theo's not here.
So I just think you should watch your back after the show.
That's right there.
Thanks for the warning.
You got it.
So it's Wednesday.
It's hump day.
That means we have a fabulous show, as always.
But we also have our favorite segment, Dear Toasters, which is our advice segment.
Again, if you ever want to write in, we always keep things anonymous.
And the email is deartoasters at gmail.com.
We've got three for you today.
And I know I say this virtually every Wednesday, but I love Wednesdays.
Like, Dear Toasters has become like, I used to just like do it because it was Wednesday, but now like I genuinely, like, I see the cards when I walk in and they're right here.
And I'm so excited.
You live six days for one.
That's what I'm, well, I live five days for four.
No, for one.
You do four shows for one.
I do five shows for one.
Yeah.
Nobody's like, I live 10 months for two.
You don't include the two months.
Oh, yeah.
So you do four shows for one.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Always taking it back to 10 months for two.
Always.
That is like the cornerstone and like and the mantra in which our found, like our whole life was built on.
There's two types of people in this world.
People who live 10 months for two and people I don't want to know.
Ooh.
No, no, there's two types of people in this world.
People who live 10 months for two and liars.
No, but like some people never went to camp.
They might not even know what we're talking about.
Do you want to hear the funniest thing?
Over the weekend, I was with like four people,
Margo,
the Snatcher.
So Margo and her roommate Nicole, who hosts the Snatcher podcast, Ben, and Ben's friend Elliot.
And we were like talking about camp.
And I was like, Elliot, like, did you ever go to camp?
And he was like, yeah, of course, I love to camp.
And I was like going on and on about how like people who just didn't go to camp are like so weird.
And unbeknownst to me, Nicole didn't go to camp.
And literally she made the weirdest face.
I'm like, what?
She's like, I didn't go to camp.
I'm like, what?
And then I found out she did go to soccer camp.
So that totally counts.
But it was like a three-week thing, but it counts.
Yeah, that's like a while ago.
I was hanging out with Dana and we were trying to teach her a TikTok dance.
And the first step is kickball change.
So I was like, kickball change.
And she was like, what?
And I was like, I don't associate with people who don't know how to kickball change.
She also went to camp and she should know what a kickball chain is.
Every camper who took...
rudimentary dance class knows what a kickball chain is.
And if you were really into the dance scene in camp, you would also know what a potaboo ray is.
But that is not basic standard.
A kickball change is so
ingrained.
A chasse too, like across the floor with your arms out.
And, you know, you would have to like line up in the corner and then like go diagonal chasse in twos across the dance floor.
Fabulous.
Fabulous.
I mean, I used to like dread, like.
After school activities that we did, like piano lessons or dance lessons, tennis lessons, like I literally, they were the bane of my existence.
I hated them so much.
And I would just love now to like have a tennis lesson once a week, a piano lesson once a week, chasse across a dance floor once a week.
Like, we didn't even know how good it was.
We didn't know
to appreciate it.
Kid life, childhood is really made like, would be better suited for adults.
Yes, I can see that about a lot of things similar to Camp, which is why we started Camp Toast.
Yeah, which we're not having this year, which is...
Which is a loss.
It's a loss.
I've actually dreamed about it a few times.
Good dreams, man.
Good dreams.
Good dreams.
Speaking of other good dreams, not really at all.
Yesterday we filmed, I think, the funniest Patreon episode we've ever done.
And I know that like a lot of a lot of episodes have gotten that title.
I'll tell you some of the top ones that are competing for the title.
Drunk Get Ready With Me.
Drunk Get Ready With Me, the spending $1,000 gift card at Barney's became like a crowd favorite.
People of the Zoom Happy Hour All Steams on the See.
That was a good one.
But I just want to say,
when editing this video yesterday, I have never laughed so hard in the editing process.
I probably watched the video four times backwards and forwards.
And I was on the floor.
You were so funny.
You know, I'm glad you had a good time recording it because it was really like an emotional journey for me.
It was somewhat traumatizing.
I haven't actually seen, I think, my entire say yes to the dress episode in full.
And if I have, it hasn't been for four years.
So we sat down and we watched it and we did like reactions to it.
And we told like, you know, more behind-the-scenes stuff, things they cut out, things you didn't see.
And it was, I knew it was bad.
Like, you know, I remember being like not loving the episode, but I don't think I really
remembered how like awful I came off.
And now all the tweets, I mean, they literally re-air my episode multiple times a month.
Like it's crazy.
And I don't know if they just do it because my episode is particularly terrible or they just like re-air everyone's.
But there are 15 seasons like and I feel like mine definitely gets played more.
And I understand people who like don't know me and who tweet like, man, they just tweet at me like this girl with no job chick is annoying.
Like say like one more time.
They're totally right.
Okay.
Well, I've been reading the comments on the episode and one, people absolutely love it rolling just like us, their favorite episode.
And two, so many people commented that they actually discovered you and this show from Say Yes to the Dress.
And they're so grateful that Say Yes to the Dress brought you into their lives.
And so it's all good.
You know, I have no regrets about like signing on to do the show.
No part of me wishes that I didn't do it, but there are definitely things I regret saying.
Yeah, and you can find out which things she regrets saying at patreon.com slash the morning toast.
It's...
It's fabulous.
Yeah, we literally sat in front of my giant TV and just cringed for 40 minutes straight.
It is a hilarious vlog.
And also, if you join Patreon now to become a member, because you want to watch this video, you also get access to all the old episodes.
So some of the videos we mentioned, like
Drunk, Get Ready With Me and whatever else, you are now able to access those.
We have like over 200 episodes, podcast videos, vlogs, all the stuff.
So all the stuff.
So head over to patreon.com slash the morning toast.
That was fun.
And literally, I was sweating like an animal because when we vlog and when we podcast, we turn the air conditioning off.
I also happen to have commercial air conditioning units in my apartment, don't ask.
And and they're so loud.
So we had to turn it off and I was just like anxious watching it and it was fucking hot.
Yeah, we were both wearing like sweaters.
And I was like broken dead.
Like I had to fully take a nap afterwards because it was, it was emotionally draining.
It was.
It was.
But she laid it all out for you guys.
So definitely consume.
Definitely consume.
Also, maybe some of you are noticing.
I'm just like looking amazing.
It's because I got a spray tan for the first time since February.
And man, did it feel good.
Like, you know, usually you get naked in front of Anna who does her spray tans it's like a little you know like I'm naked you know I was like I couldn't get my robe off fast enough I'm like spray me and it just felt amazing and I missed you know all the things I used to not like about spray tans like oh I can't you know my sheets are stained like I don't even care I'm like living for the normalcy of it all and the smell
I actually
I'm never bothered by the smell Ben can't stand it I know even when I use just
self-tanner on my legs like Zach can't stand it it has like the same key ingredient all spray tanners or self-tanners I don't know what it is.
Ben says it smells like wet dog, and he like refuses to talk to me or touch me.
Yeah, it's not the best smell in the world, but it's certainly not the worst.
But you know what?
It smells like beauty, and that's truly like all I care about.
I agree.
Um, so we got some stories, we got some things going on.
I did watch the second half of the Shaws of Sunset reunion, and I have some thoughts.
Um,
I feel like I'll get into it.
Okay.
And I started season three of Yellowstone because it's like on air now.
Okay.
So I'm up to season three, episode three, which has just been such a treat.
And then once I'm all caught up, we could discuss.
What channels does it air on?
It's on Paramount.
I didn't know that channel was still in existence.
Me neither.
And I watch it now on the Paramount app.
When you hear Paramount Network...
When you watch seasons one and two on peacock.
When you hear Paramount Network on the count of three, say what it makes you think of.
One, two, three.
Kyle Richards.
Yes.
I didn't know if you were going to say American Woman or Kyle Richards, and I was trying to think of the name of the show.
Do you think I remember the name of the show?
Like, come on, seriously.
No.
Okay, well, I think without further ado, let's just get right into the fast-five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast.

Okay, first story nominations for the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards were announced on Tuesday and it was a diverse mix with old favorites like Game of Thrones and Veep out of contention.
Shows like The Mandalorian, Insecure, and Schitt's Creek received
multiple nods.
Wow, that's fascinating.
Yeah, we'll get to this in a little bit, but Moira Rose deserves an Emmy for once and for fucking all.
Was she nominated?
I believe she was nominated.
Oh my gosh.
And she deserves to win the category.
It's the last season of Schitz Creek, and she is
so worthy.
Of course, but to be honest, I don't feel like...
Game of Thrones and Veep should have had to end for her to at least get nominated.
No, she had been nominated for, but she didn't win.
Netflix dominated with 160 nominations, which is a new record, as new services like Disney Plus, Apple TV also made their mark.
So here are the nominees, and Claudia and I are going to cast our votes.
Okay.
Outstanding lead actor in a limited series or TV movie.
Some of these categories are so specific.
Oh my God.
What's a limited series?
Let's see.
Would be what Big Little Eyes was before they chose to do another season.
So a one-season moment?
Chernobyl, which you should watch.
Okay.
Jeremy Irons, Watchmen.
Hugh Jackman, Bad Education.
That was a TV movie.
I've heard that's actually really good, but I haven't seen it.
Paul Mescal, Normal People.
Oh, winner!
Winner, hottie Paul Mescal, like still dreaming about him.
He's got my vote.
I don't care who else.
Jeremy Pope, Hollywood.
Who plays, who's Jeremy Pope?
I'm googling it now.
Who he plays?
Hollywood was actually very good, and a lot of the actors were pretty fabulous.
Oh, he plays the writer of the movie.
Let me see.
Oh, he was great.
He was great.
He was great.
I wonder if Hollywood got a lot of nominations because the acting was very good.
Okay.
And Mark Ruffalo, I know this much is true.
Never heard of it.
So, the politician is not a limited series.
No, because there were two seasons.
So that'll be a different category.
Perhaps.
Okay, so for this, I'm totally casting my vote for normal people.
Paul Mescal was so good, and I loved him so much.
Like, he made me want to just go to Dublin and fall in love with an Irishman.
He was very good.
I would give him my vote too.
I just, I couldn't finish normal people.
It literally took me to such a dark and depressed place.
Why?
And it was actually unhealthy.
But the sex,
it was too good to pass on.
No, it was too dark.
And I had read the book, so I didn't need, like, I knew what happens.
And they stuck to the script really closely.
So I just couldn't finish it.
It was too heavy.
That's crazy because, like, I finished it in, like, less than a day.
And when it was over, I was like, devastated.
Wow.
That's crazy that you liked it much more.
I know.
Like, I had my problems with the ending, of course, but whatever.
Outstanding lead actress in a limited series or TV movie.
Kate Blanchett, Miss America.
She Haas, Unorthodox.
She was great.
Oh, she was fabulous.
Regina King, Watchman.
Octavia Spencer, self-made.
Also fabulous.
Carrie Washington, Little Fires Everywhere.
I think I'm going to go with Octavia Spencer.
Great story.
Loved everything about it.
And Octavia really brought life to the role.
I completely agree.
Outstanding lead actor in a comedy series.
Anthony Anderson, Blackish.
Don Cheadle, Black Monday.
Ted Danson, The Good Place.
Michael Douglas, The Kaminsky Method.
Eugene Levy, Schittz Creek.
Rami Youssef, Rami.
I gotta go with you, Mr.
Eugene Levy and Schitt's Creek.
It's the show as a whole, even though Johnny Rose.
I don't have a horse in this race.
Yeah.
Of those shows, I think that maybe Schittz Creek is the only one that I watch.
But I don't think that makes Eugene Levy the winner here.
I haven't seen the other shows, but I'm sure.
He's not, to me, he's not the best part.
or even like the top five best things about Schitt's Creek.
He's honestly really fucking annoying.
So I don't have a vote here.
Yeah, me neither.
Outstanding lead actress in a comedy series.
Christina Applegate, dead to me.
Oh, she was very good.
Rachel Brasnahan, the marvelous Mrs.
Maisel.
Also excellent.
Linda Cartellini, Dead to Me.
Very good.
Catherine O'Hara, Schitt's Creek.
Oh, this is a tough category.
Dissaray, insecure.
Ooh.
And Tracy Ellis Ross, blackish.
Oh, my God.
Honestly.
Any one of these women could win.
Agreed.
By the way, that's...
That's really tough.
Yeah, but for me, I think Moira Rose, considering it's the last season, but that's not a reason to win, but she's been worthy every season.
I, of course, I agree, but it's a like, it's not an easy win.
Like, this is not by any means going to be a landslide.
Like, that's really, every single person in that category like dominates their show.
That's really hard.
Yeah.
Okay, outstanding lead actor in a drama series.
Jason Bateman, Ozark, Sterling K.
Brown, This Is Us.
Steve Carell, The Morning Show, Brian Cox, Succession, Billy Porter, Pose, Jeremy Strong, Succession.
I don't watch any of those shows, so I'm just gonna go with Billy Porter because I would like to see him giving a speech as opposed to any of those other people.
That's a great reason, too.
I think so too.
And like the look he'll provide for us, it's just multi-dimensional.
The reasons why I think he should win.
Yeah.
Beyond his performance, which I'm sure was great.
I never saw it.
Yeah, I agree with you there.
Outstanding lead actress in a drama series: Jennifer Anniston, The Morning Show, Olivia Coleman, The Crown.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
Jodi Comer, Killing Eve.
Laura Linney, Ozark.
Sandra O, Killing Eve, Zendaya, Euphoria.
Ooh.
You know,
of those shows, I only watched The Crown.
And I actually think Olivia Coleman did an amazing job as queen
after Claire Foy, which I feel like is not an easy.
Like, people aren't going to like you.
They've gotten used to Claire Foy.
Like, it was a disruption amongst, and honestly, I remember being like, who the hell is this?
But I think she was fabulous, and I really, really like her.
But I think Zendaya could get it.
My vote is for Olivia Coleman.
Yeah, I don't know.
I haven't watched,
I haven't watched enough of the shows to say that I think Olivia Coleman was really good, and I agree with what you're saying, but I might feel that way about killing Eve, too, if I took the time to watch it.
Yeah.
Which I've heard it's really good.
Yes.
Outstanding Reality Competition Series.
Oh my God, reality shows can win Emmys?
Competition, yes.
The Masked Singer
nailed it.
RuPaul's Drag Race.
Oh.
Top Chef and the Voice.
RuPaul's Drag Race.
May the best woman, best woman win.
I mean, RuPaul's Drag Race literally created...
I can't even go into what RuPaul's Drag Race has done because it's such a phenomenal show and they just keep elevating themselves.
You know, the rest of the reality competition shows need to meet RuPaul up here because they're still here.
No doubt in my mind.
There's literally no, no question, no question.
Outstanding variety talk series.
Daily show with Trevor Noah, Full Frontal with Samantha B.
Jimmy Kim Alive last week tonight with John Oliver, a late show with Stephen Colbert.
I literally hate every single one of these shows.
I truly could care less.
No, like, I literally hate every single one of these shows.
Like, I've never seen a minute of any of them.
I just know that, like, they're not funny.
Yeah, no.
I hope that's not funny.
And I know what they're not.
They're not outstanding.
No, no.
And what about like watch what happens live?
I completely agree.
I completely agree.
What is the morning toast?
Like, you know?
Yeah.
I don't think.
I think you have to be on a network.
I don't think we would be in this category anyway.
Nightly pop.
Like, you know what I mean?
Nightly pop.
To me, these are such antiquated shows.
Like, Jimmy Kimmel, really, again, like, come on.
Come on.
Outstanding Limited series.
Little Fires Everywhere, Mrs.
America, Unbelievable, Unorthodox, Watchmen.
I have to say, Unbelievable was...
Unbelievable.
Like, it was, I watched the whole thing on a really long plane ride.
It was incredible.
And I didn't even know what it was about.
And like the way all the stories ended up connecting.
But Unorthodox was also sensational.
I'm going with Unorthodox because I think that the, and I haven't seen everything here, but the way that it was done and the
mean they the recreation of you know the that community but also the yiddish speaking that's what i was gonna say um every facet of it was just unbelievably well done they literally wrote a show that was that's in the like a dying language no it's it's a forgotten language it's dead i don't think it's dying like it's pretty much dead i just am being hopeful no i know like me too um it was incredible yeah i i think an orthodox as well Also, I just want to say Little Fires Everywhere like is getting some nominations here.
I guess people were upset that Reese was snubbed for the nomination.
I really thought the show was absolutely nothing of the sort.
And to add to that, I don't think Reese was much of the sort.
Like I honestly agree with her not getting nominated.
Yeah.
And I just, I think it's like it's gotten nominated because it was made.
Right.
You know, but that's not enough of a reason.
No, I literally was like so on board and excited and I didn't even finish it.
Like that's how not good it was.
Yeah.
Outstanding comedy series, fun category.
Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Winner.
Dead to Me.
Also good.
The Good Place.
Insecure.
The Kaminsky Method.
I feel like that show wins every year.
Yeah.
The Marvelous Mrs.
Mazel also wins every year.
Shit's Creek and What We Do in the Shadows.
Well, this is the first year that I actually have watched the Marvelous Mrs.
Maisel as opposed to just like talking shit about it with never having seen a moment of it.
So do you agree with all of the accolades it has received?
1,000%.
It is a fucking sensational show.
Like really, really, truly remarkable.
Like the way they've really recreated New York in the, I think it's the 50s or something.
It's unreal.
Some of the Jewish tropes are like a little overt for me and border on a little like offensive, but it's really, really sensational.
But the winner here is so clearly Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Like how anyone thinks any of those shows are funnier than Curb Your Enthusiasm doesn't know comedy.
Yeah, I just am also pulling again,
I'm just a broken record.
Schitt's Creek.
It deserves to win an Emmy.
Is it in that category?
It's in that category.
And it was the last season.
And I don't know if they, what Emmys they've won in the past, but like they deserve to go out on this high.
You know what what it is?
It's also, I can't even speak because I haven't watched the last season yet, and this is like awards for the last season because I'm saving it for like a day when I need it, you know?
And I just, I love to have things to look forward to.
Me too.
Like, do you think they get rich again in the end?
And then, like, decide to stay in Shitskree.
Oh, I wonder.
I have no idea.
That's what I'm saying.
I haven't thought about how it might end.
And then they build a mansion on a hill in Shitskree.
Oh, that's really cute.
And like give back to the community.
Oh, my God.
I would love that.
Me too.
Okay.
Wow.
I never thought.
Like Johnny's accountant uncovers like an offshore account.
Yeah.
I never thought about how it might end.
Yeah.
Okay, an outstanding drama series.
Better Call Saul, The Crown, Handmaid's Tale, Killing Eve, The Mandalorian, Ozark, Stranger Things, Succession.
I mean, I only watch The Crown and what was one right after it?
Handmaid's Tale.
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
You should not be awarded for terrorizing people and haunting their dreams.
Absolutely not.
I think it sends a bad message.
So I'm going to say The Crown because that's the only one I watch.
Yeah, I think The Crown is outstanding.
I've tried to watch Succession Now three times and I could not get past the second episode.
So, but I know people love it and that it's so good.
And I think they had like a really great season.
So I feel like they might be sweeping.
But I also think that The Mandalorian, though I've never watched it and never cared to, it brought Baby Yoda into our lives.
And that has become such a cultural staple.
I think the Emmys need to consider that when making their decision.
Of course, cultural implications should hold value.
Yeah, they should.
And I hope Yoda Academy addresses that.
Baby Yoda is the ultimate camper.
Big time.
Big time camper.
So those are the major categories.
Those are the nominations.
Those are our thoughts.
And what I'm realizing is I do not have any horses in this race.
I do not watch award-winning television.
Yeah, you know what, though?
What's so interesting is I really feel like the Emmys for a while were like the lowest
of the egot.
On the totem pole, it's just like Emmys.
And there really wasn't that much competition.
There were a couple like really, really good TV shows, but it wasn't like every category was stacked.
And I just feel like so many like major stars have really invested so much in TV that's due to streaming services yeah because of the major contracts that they're getting the money sources that they're putting behind it it's not just now you have to have a show on it used to be like the silver screen versus the small screen but now it's just all one screen and now when you have like limited series is that's kind of like an in between a movie and a television show the lines are really getting blurred and I agree that premium, premium content is coming out via television and like mega stars.
Mega stars.
And it's due to what the streaming services can offer them in terms of distribution and a big payday paycheck so i just think it's honestly i used to like skip the emmys but it's becoming real staple in my year i think that the golden globes are the lowest on the totem pole because they're just like the junior oscars and they're both tv and it's like if you're on tv you really want to win the emmy like you know yeah i guess it's the one that bridges both tv and movies but
and i think um a little music as well i love a little music me too okay next story some really exciting news that put a smile on my face because we take the positive news that we can get in terms of moving forward.
Okay.
Real Housewives of New York is set to film an in-person reunion next week.
I saw this.
Like, this is so exciting, obviously, for the content, but just for what it means for where we stand in terms of moving forward in this pandemic is fabulosity.
Yes, and of course I want to be positive, but like of course it had to happen with like literally the worst cast of New York.
Like why not Beverly Hills?
Like the season, they just filmed it a week ago.
You're shit.
You're so right.
I know.
So it's like if they had waited two weeks i don't know but la is still behind me you have to think every state is so different la still is behind andy is in new york yes so i wonder i'm assuming that factored into the decision i mean that's so exciting and i'm sure they'll limit like hair makeup i'm sure not every housewife can have like a million stylists like i'm sure it's like two people per housewife.
Yeah, or maybe everyone has to show up ready.
Oh, that would be a good idea.
And like they'll have one on set makeup artist and hair artist to touch up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There are ways to go over the mask lines.
Yeah.
There are ways to do it.
And I feel like, honestly, when I was reading Andy's book, like for so long, the reunions were such a clusterfuck and so much information was getting leaked because there were tons of people in everyone's dressing room.
There's 10 housewives, five people in every dressing room that's already 50 people besides production.
So I feel like whatever they end up doing will probably really benefit reunions as a whole because they've gone on far too long for being like kind of messy.
Like so much information gets leaked before it even comes out.
Yeah, that's true.
Well, the Real Houses in New York City will be able to fight each other in person next week instead of duking it out online.
The Reality Showcast will be shooting an in-person reunion on August 5th on Long Island, a source tells page six exclusively.
Interesting.
Bravo boss and watch what happens live instigator Andy Cohen will be in attendance.
Sources tell us COVID precautions are still being ironed out for the taping, but they will be following CDC guidelines such as using a limited crew and mandatory face masks.
Also, I'm assuming the women will be six feet apart.
Oh, that's so interesting.
Well, them doing
wear masks
if they're six feet apart.
Them doing it in Long Island is actually so fascinating because
they'll probably do it somewhere near the Hamptons.
Ramona's in the Hamptons, Elise's in the Hamptons, Andy's in the Hamptons.
Andy was in the Hamptons with Elise.
Elise is not on the schedule.
No, she is not.
And I don't believe Tinsley will be flying in from Chicago.
I'm cool with both of those things.
Very cool.
Very cool.
As a cucumber.
So it'll really be a kind of small cast.
It'll be Ramona, Luann, Dorinda, Sonia, Leah.
Yeah.
Oh, that's five.
Yeah.
Well, they have to be six feet apart anyway, so there's a limited amount of space, honestly.
Works for me.
Works for me.
I'm so glad we're moving forward with like in-person reunions because while the Zoom ones have been way better than I expected, and with each one, they're getting a little better.
Like the first one was Atlanta, and it was good, but then with Shaws of Sunset, Vanner Prime Rules, and Beverly Hills, like they get better every time, and the cameras are better, the mics are better, but nothing beats being in person.
No, nothing beats it.
So this is.
While I do wish it was another show, I'll be up.
Some good, exciting news.
Yeah.
Okay, next story.
Some more good exciting news.
Oprah Winfrey reveals in a new interview, she reveals a new interview show and is rethinking print future of O magazine.
Oprah announced on Monday that her new show, The Oprah Conversation, will debut exclusively on Apple TV for free at 6 p.m.
on Thursday.
Also, she'll be refocusing her monthly magazine to a digitally-centric magazine.
I mean, Oprah is a maven, and, you know, working in publishing is not easy these days.
And good on Oprah for having the foresight, you know, while under house arrest to, you know, make the changes necessary for her business.
Yeah.
I think a digitally centric magazine is a great call.
And I think an Oprah conversation television show is an amazing call.
And I also heard that they were launching a podcast.
I mean.
And we would welcome Oprah with open arms.
She would be a fabulous podcaster.
No, she's always too fabulous for podcasting, which is why it needs to be on TV.
Yeah.
But
she's the ultimate podcaster if you think about it.
You know, if I ever got to be as rich as Oprah, I would do exactly what she did.
Start a magazine where I'm on the cover every week, every month, and named after me.
Like, can you say genius?
Yeah.
Genius.
This is really exciting.
Hosting news, entertainment news, consumption news.
Biz news.
And biz news because it's an interesting step in print publication or lack thereof.
Or lack thereof.
Spooky.
Right.
Spooky.
Was that the last story?
No, we have two more stories.
Oh, wow.
So what were we looking at me like that for?
I don't know.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Are you ready for the next story?
Am I supposed to say something?
Am I missing something?
No, you're fine.
Okay.
Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly make it Instagram official, quote, waited an eternity to find you.
This makes me so happy.
This makes me so happy.
I love Megan Kelly.
I love Megan Kelly.
They are so beautiful.
They are so beautiful.
And they're hanging out with Lala.
And they're hanging out with Lala.
Yeah, that's the challenge.
And they're doing her podcast.
We love people who respect podcasts.
The couple posed for a black and white mirror selfie, which the rapper shared on his Instagram account on Tuesday.
Quote, waited for eternity to find you again, Kelly wrote in the caption.
This is just so cute.
The picture they posted is so cute.
I didn't realize we were waiting for them to make it Instagram official.
Me neither, because it was already official in my mind.
I've been thinking about it non-stop since I first heard about it.
It was like paparazzi official.
It was podcast official.
It was everything official.
And now I guess it's Instagram official.
Yeah.
I mean, their love story is one I just love so much but I think like the most valuable thing we've gotten out of it is that song Bloody Valentine that they did the music video for.
I have not been able to stop listening to it.
It is so good.
Yeah.
And now I think I'm like a machine gun Kelly like stamp.
I mean because I'm obviously a machine gun Kelly and Megan Kelly fan.
Yeah.
But it has led me down a road of machine gun Kelly's music which is actually quite fabulous.
Yeah.
And I I think we've had this conversation already because I'm about to say, I think Ben would like it too.
He loves it.
We've had this conversation.
Yeah.
So that's, well we'll leave that but i'm excited for these two i'm excited that they're hanging out with randall and lala really in my head
i just in my head wish eternal love for them they spoke on the podcast about how when they met each other they it was just instantaneous they knew they were in flames oh love to hear it love to see it something about them like gives me real
i feel like you know how kids today like emo tumbler kids like post pictures of like winona ryder and johnny depp when they were like 17 being like mood i literally feel like kids in 10 years are gonna post pictures, whether or not they're together, of Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Kelly, like kids who are really into like the emo scene or like the rock scene.
Yeah.
And it's gonna be like mood.
Yeah, this photo that they posted on Instagram definitely made their answer on Tumblr yesterday.
100%.
Like Emo Tumblr is sobbing.
Yeah, I agree.
That's a very good call.
You know, it's like, and people love to post like early 90s pictures of like Brad Pitt, like and on red carpets, like of celebrities who we know, but like had totally different looks that were like kind of iconic when they were teenagers.
You know who else I'm feeling that way about since we reported about them?
Who?
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz.
Yeah.
I don't like the people who write the captions for e-news like literally can't breathe without talking about Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham like once a week.
And honestly, I totally forget about them all the time because I don't follow either of them on Instagram.
I'm like, I don't actually care, but happy for two beautiful people who found each other and who probably never have to work in their lives.
You know?
Yeah.
That's a beautiful story.
Claudia, that's beautiful.
Yeah.
Make sure to order my comedy special, Disgraced Queen.
Now I'm streaming on many platforms.
If you head over to my Instagram account, Girl With No Job, there's a highlight called Disgraced Queen.
It has links to all the places you could buy, purchase, stream, rent my comedy special, and my comedy album.
So if you like listening to podcasts, you can listen to my entire show as an album on Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, all the places, Amazon Music.
So it's fabulous for a long car ride.
It's fabulous for a long car ride.
Okay, ready for our fifth and final story?
I mean, I'm sad, but yeah.
It's the sooner you get into Dear Toasters, which makes you so happy.
So true.
Ed Sheeron is opening up about his, quote, addictive personality.
Yes, I heard that.
He starts getting sad.
Ed Sheeron is reflecting on how his addictive personality led to struggles with binge eating and drinking.
During an interview for the Hay House Chasing The Present Summit, the Shape of You singer reflected on his unhealthy lifestyle during his ex-world tour in 2015.
Quote, for me, it was down to bad diet, drinking, and then not seeing sunlight at all.
So I was touring, oh, and I wasn't exercising.
I would stay up and drink all night.
The buses would park underneath arenas, and I'd sleep on the bus all day and then wake up and then come out, do the show, drink, get back on the bus.
I didn't see sunlight for like maybe four months.
It's all fun and games at the start.
It's all rock and roll and then it starts getting just sad.
So I think that was probably the lowest that I've been.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think like a tour that big is
so insane, like the way that you're scheduled out.
And I don't think most people can really handle that type of schedule.
And especially if you have this type of personality, which I didn't know that Ed Sharon had, it's obviously not a healthy environment to be in.
Yeah.
But
this explains why in the past he's sort of taken long breaks and hiatuses from working, I think, probably to recharge because it does become a cycle.
And artists talk about it.
It's right, album, tour, right?
That's what happened, took down one direction.
Yeah.
And so I think it's really important to prioritize taking time for yourself and also enjoying the fruits of your labor.
Right, like, what's the point in making over a million dollars a show if you're literally just working the next day and you don't have time to enjoy it?
Yeah.
And I feel like his fiancé, girlfriend, wife, I don't know what they are, like partner.
I feel like they got married.
I feel like they did too.
I feel like she's a real stable force in his life and that was like the best thing for him.
Yeah.
Okay.
She might be his girlfriend, but to me, they're just like, they're OTP.
You know, I don't question it.
No, I don't need to put a label on it.
Me neither.
But my absolute favorite picture of them is like them like partying, leaving a club in London at like 1 a.m.
and she is wearing his sneakers and he's barefoot, holding her heels.
It's so cute.
It's so cute.
That's love.
And she's just like a regular girl, and he's like a regular guy.
Like, it's, I really like them as a couple.
Yeah, he said also that he's reading Elton John's book at the moment, and there are so many things that he did that I do.
He would be like, I would just go on an ice cream binge and eat four fucking desserts until I threw up.
And I was like, oh, I've done that before.
And so I feel like that's what we saw in Rocket Man.
So that's the story that they tell.
So it's easy for us, not easy, but to picture.
We can imagine what it looks like.
And so I'm glad that he's taking the time and getting the help that he needs along the way.
It's clear that he's not just talking about like drugs or alcohol.
It's like like addiction to everything.
Yeah, and it's just the whole environment
that sets you up.
When you have unlimited resources to do and say and get whatever you want, like how do you not get out of control?
Right.
And just like he said in the beginning, I'm sure it's all fun and games and it's rock and roll and we're drinking and we're partying, but like it goes, it gets really sad for you.
And I think the food part I think is one that like I can totally relate to.
And I just find it interesting that like that's another layer of success.
It's like again, the gluttonous vibe where, like, you want to have everything, that includes food too.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
And that was also like in Rocket Man, the shopping for Elton John.
Yes.
Which I could relate to as well.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
It's, that was a great word to use.
Gluttonous.
We all have our addictions.
We do.
Not that I do, but.
Shopping.
No, you do.
I think I'm fine.
No, I think a healthy,
I'm addicted to investing.
Oh, please.
Okay.
Dear toasters, everyone.
Our advice segment: if you ever want to write us in, dear toasters at gmail.com.
We appreciate you writing in and we always keep it anonymous.
Like this next girl or boy, I don't know.
Dear Toasters, first off, thank you for keeping me sane during the queue.
I have a weird question about my relationship for you.
Here is some backstory.
My boyfriend and I have been together for six years.
We've broken up three times within that time, but currently we've been together for one and a half years and he lives with me.
Here's the juicy part.
He has a best friend since middle school.
Let's call him Joe.
And all of us went to college together.
Joe and I have always gotten along really well, have similar personalities, interests, etc.
And multiple people have made comments about our chemistry over the years.
Recently, we went on a group camping trip, sounds like torture, and Joe made a few comments about how he needs to find a girl like me, how I'm marrying the wrong guy, etc.
I grew up on a cattle farm and have always pictured myself being a stay-at-home mom, but my boyfriend told me I'll be expected to work when having kids.
It's a little fucking rude.
Joe manages a cat, because it's like, it sounds, it doesn't sound bad until you really think about it.
So it's like a little fucking rude.
You know what I mean?
Joe manages a cattle ranch and says he can financially support a wife to stay home.
Help, I love my boyfriend and don't even know how this logistically could ever work, but we're talking about a lifelong marriage here.
And if our family slash long-term goals don't align, I don't want to be divorced with two kids in five years when Joe has a ranch and seemingly ideal solution waiting.
Thank you, my beautiful, stunning, and smart queens.
Okay.
First of all.
I feel like there's two things going on here.
Like you might be unhappy in your relationship and then you might might have feelings for this other guy.
But like I feel like you like the guy's ranch more than you like him.
You know?
Okay.
I have
also I want to be you.
I want these to be my choices, like a cattle ranch, you know?
I feel a lot of ways about this.
First of all, like I ship you and Joe.
I really do.
But the reasons why you would choose him over your existing boyfriend have to be more than like he has a cattle ranch.
And you wouldn't have to work.
Right.
And I understand like maybe there is a connection and everyone sees it and everyone gets it, but there is a very big difference between, you know, flirting with someone when you see them and it's like a fun, exciting, like off-limits thing versus being in a relationship with someone and obviously you're like sick and tired of your boyfriend of six years.
Yeah.
And he's old news and Joe and his cattle ranch are looking really good right now.
Yeah.
I very much endorse you breaking up with your boyfriend and going to Joe, but it has to be for the real deep and right reasons.
And more than just the ranch.
And more than just the ranch.
But I also will say that if you guys are dating and you already don't see your future the same way or in a similar light, like those things don't change.
Right.
And
not saying that Joe is the answer, but this is still a problem.
Right.
So I think the thing you have to do is take a look at your own relationship.
If you guys are...
You have to take Joe out of the equation.
Right.
You guys are clearly on two different planets in terms of what you want for your life.
Like you want to be a stay-at-home mom, which is a totally valid lifestyle.
And he doesn't want that.
So is that a deal breaker for you?
That's something you need to think about.
Yeah.
But take this decision absent of Joe.
Pretend that Joe is married and happily
off limits.
Like, just Joe died for a minute, okay?
Yeah.
What is your decision in regards to Le Boyfriend?
You need to make one decision at a time.
Jackie, Le Boyfriend.
What's that from?
Come on.
Friends.
No, think about it.
You've seen it.
It's a movie.
Okay.
And what about Le Boyfriend?
Oh, sounds familiar.
Billy Bush.
Billy Bush.
The Billy Bush look alike in Devilwear's Devilwear's product.
Yeah.
I've absolutely never gotten that.
Next up.
Oh, really?
Because every time he says it, it's so cringy, it sends a chill down my spine.
Le boyfriend?
Just saying, where's your boyfriend?
Like, we're not in friends.
We're in New York.
Hi, Jackie and Claudia.
Sorry, hi, Claudia and Jackie.
Okay, putting some respect on my name.
I am a true, loyal supporter and fan of your show, and I look forward to your beautiful, stunning, and smart selves gracing my screen every day.
Thank you.
You know just what to say.
I am desperate for some advice from two happily married gals like, she wrote myself but i think she means yourselves i truly am at a loss with some of my husband's most recent behaviors since being in the queue together in our apartment i have noticed an increase in my husband
i've noticed an increase in my husband picking his nose
picking his ear wax biting his finger and toenails yes that does take a lot of flexibility i will often suggest getting him the proper tools to to sanitarily do such things such as q-tip tissue nail clipper I even so much adopted Spa Sunday in the queue so that we can soak him, trim, and clean up our nails, and do other necessary tweezing and maintaining these areas together with the proper tools.
His barber even waxes his nose and ears when he goes and gets his haircut.
Most recently, I've caught him taking
no
I can't read it.
I can't, Jackie.
You're gonna die.
No, no, you
cannot read it.
Okay,
most recently
I don't
just what did he do recently?
I have caught him.
I have caught him tasting his boogers.
I fucking can't.
Smelling and tasting his earwax and chewing on his toenails.
I am skeefed out to no end.
I can't believe I catch him doing such a repulsive, disgusting, childish, not to mention unsanitary thing.
Mind you, my husband is a polished professional, well-respected attorney, and I'm just appalled that he becomes this animal when he's at home.
I'm appalled when he becomes this animal when he is at home, and I know anyone else would too.
I call him out all the time and refuse to touch, kiss, or give him any affection.
I will go so far to remind him when we have children and they see you doing that, they will think it's acceptable, and in no time, our children are going to be the class booger eaters.
What else can I do to stop him?
This is absolutely disgusting, and I don't want him to continue doing this ever, but I don't want to continue nagging and constantly calling him out over and over again.
Thank you so, so much.
With love, a skeeved-out spouse.
Wow.
Okay.
This is problematic.
I thought we had a handle on it until you said tasting his earwax.
Oh, really?
You thought it was fine when he was eating his boogers?
You know what?
Like, somehow eating boogers has been normalized.
Like, that's what kids do.
That's what kids do.
What are you talking about?
It's not normal.
Fucking stroke.
But this isn't the first time I've heard of someone eating their boogers.
This is the first time I've heard.
You've never heard of someone tasting their boogers over the age of 10?
Oh, no, no, no.
But, like, I've never even heard of a nine-year-old tasting their earwax.
That's fucking disgusting.
So, we've crossed a line here.
Like, it was already bad, but we're in unchartered territory because I don't even know how you get enough earwax on your finger to taste it.
Maybe Baton and QGIN has it like a lollipop.
I can't fucking breathe.
Honestly, there's only one choice here: divorce.
Yeah.
Sorry.
This is so, so crazy.
And I'm I'm sorry, biting his toenails.
Like, is he a gymnast?
Well, he should quit being an attorney to join a circus.
He's very talented.
I don't know what to tell you.
I'm out of my depth.
Yeah, no, no, this is beyond.
Like, this is just an unlevel.
You have to leave.
You need to, like, find a medication that would dry up his earwax.
You're in danger.
You have to go.
I'm going to have a heart attack.
Tevoris.
Davor.
What would you do?
No.
I don't know.
Ben does some weird things.
He's going to kill me, but like, you know, I can't even say it.
He does some weird things, but like, I've learned to love it.
He just has to watch it.
Yeah, and like, men are more disgusting.
Their hands are always in their balls.
Yeah, it's, but there's a level that we can live with.
And this is beyond that level.
And I wonder what, like, if you've had a conversation with him, but I mean, these are really, really bad habits.
They can be broken because, you know, some people bite their nails and then they learn to stop.
I mean, I just learned that they're not going to be able to do that.
Some people bite their toenails and then they learn to stop.
This girl is two weeks away from like finding a booger wall behind their bed or like a collection of clippings from his toenails.
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Yeah, right.
No, no.
Like, where is he putting all this excrement?
Sometimes he's eating it, but sometimes he's flicking it somewhere.
Yeah.
Divorce.
That is my final answer.
Here's what I don't get though.
Sometimes you can't help but bite your nails because it's like a reflex and you don't even realize you're doing it.
But the the effort that it takes to bite your toenails, it's a choice.
It's a choice.
No, and you can pick your nails while watching TV or even in a Zoom meeting, but like if your foot is in your mouth, and you can't be doing anything else.
He literally has his foot in his mouth.
You know what?
I would never trust this guy as my attorney.
Like, literally, he's a danger to society.
He should be arrested.
Yeah, no, this is sick.
I'm so sorry.
You sound fabulous.
I'm so sorry that you have to be single now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's terrible.
Oh, man.
I was just not expecting to hear that, you know?
Yeah.
Okay, final one.
Hey, Jackie and Claudia.
Longtime toaster here, who was so nervous about writing in.
I haven't told anyone this, and I think I just need to let it out.
I'm one of four children.
It's me and my twin brother, who I am very close with, our older sister, who is five years older, and another sister who was younger than us.
Because of quarantine, my brother and I are home from college, and my older sister came home from across the country and brought her longtime boyfriend to quarantine with us.
Let's call him Pinky.
Right around the beginning of quarantine, I went to sneak into my brother's bedroom at 2 a.m.
to get a hoodie.
Wait, okay, can you back up two sentences?
Yeah, because...
Because I'm about to be shook and I need to paint the picture.
Okay, so this girl and her twin brother.
They're home from college.
Home from college.
And older sister and her boyfriend are home from college.
A boyfriend's name is Pinky.
Got it, okay.
So she went into her twin brother's bedroom at 2 a.m.
to get a hoodie.
Okay.
When I opened his door, his being her brother, I saw him and Pinky having sex.
So her twin brother and her sister's boyfriend having sex.
I was in complete shock.
I quietly closed the door and did not sleep the rest of the night.
I had absolutely no idea my brother was interested in men at all, which is surprising because we are so close and as close as siblings could be.
The next night, I stayed up to see if Pinky snuck into my brother's room and he did.
So the next day I confronted my brother about it.
He broke down crying.
He says they're in love.
I have absolutely no idea what to tell him.
Apparently, this isn't his first male relationship either.
And
he was too afraid to tell any of us.
My parents are very Mormon and would most likely not support him if they knew.
He also said Pinky is planning on breaking it off with my sister, but it's been four months and Pinky and my sister are still together.
And my mother told me Pinky asked her and my father for permission to propose.
I didn't tell my brother that for fear of hurting him.
Next week, my sister and Pinky are leaving to go back to their home.
I need your help.
I don't want to out anyone.
If I tell my sister what's been going on, then she'll tell everyone because that's who she is.
Do I let my sister marry a cheater or do I ruin my brother or do I do nothing sincerely?
A toaster who just wants to be a good sister.
Wow.
There's so many elements here.
I mean, so many.
I understand why she hasn't hasn't told anyone and how she doesn't know how to navigate it because there are so many different things happening.
Yeah, I feel like my instinct would be to protect my twin brother, who's obviously in a very vulnerable state, being in the closet and in a very religious family that probably wouldn't, she said, accept him.
So like whatever steps I took would be ultimately to protect my twin brother, I think.
Like your sister will get her heart broken, but like that's pales in comparison to what Pinky could go through.
I know not Pinky.
You can't let your sister marry him.
Of course not.
So I think you talked to your brother about talking to the sister about it, them together.
And if he, if you, if you can get him to do that, then that would be great.
If you can't, I think that you have to tell your sister that Pinky is cheating on her, but not say with who.
Right.
And hopefully you guys have a good relationship and she trusts you.
Like if you came to me and said that my partner was cheating on me, you cannot tell me like how you know or who it is, but just but I would believe, like you would have to just believe me.
But that I i would just have to believe you like i would believe you yes of course also there's the route of this sister going straight to pinky and being being like i know i refuse to let you marry my sister i'll blow this whole fucking shit up if you don't break up with her yeah or tell her yeah but then you run the risk of outing the brother right which we need to protect the brother at all costs at all costs and i don't know what the what the long-term like what's the goal for the brother like to keep his sexuality hidden from their parents forever yeah or and also there's the element that he is in love with Pinky,
but I just don't trust this Pinky.
No, I mean,
but Pinky could be in a similar situation as the brother,
where it's like they're in this Mormon community and they're both gay and he's just doing what he's been told to do, which is find a nice Mormon girl to get married, but he can't deny who he is.
Yeah.
I almost feel bad for Pinky too.
Yeah.
It's not so much that he's a cheater, it's that he's living a lie.
Yeah, and he doesn't know.
And maybe, like, maybe he's going to propose to the sister and just
because he thinks that this is what he's supposed to be doing.
I mean, the twin sister, the toaster who found this out, like, man, did she step in some shit?
Like, this is just no, no easy way out of this.
Someone's going to get hurt.
And I think that her priority should be: whatever decision you decide to make, must prioritize the safety and protection of your brother.
Yes.
Twin brother.
I agree.
So I would start with going, seeing if the brother will come to you and talk to your sister.
If he won't, talk to your sister alone, give her limited information, but like.
Also, whatever you do, run it by your brother.
Yes, of course.
He needs to be looped in every step of the way.
And then maybe
if the circumstances allow for it, there's a meeting between the sister, Pinky, the brother, and the other sister.
Everyone who knows.
The cards are on the table.
They talk about the situation and they deal with it, but also with the sensitivity of not sharing it with the parent.
Because then you also run the risk of...
the older sister whose boyfriend cheated on her with her brother.
Like that is a betrayal of her being being so angry at the brother and then, like, in retaliation, telling the parents that the twin brother is gay because she's mad at him.
Yeah, she's going to be hurt too.
Right.
Hurt people hurt people.
Yeah, I'm really, this is a really tough spot to be in.
I know, but I think now I understand the inclination to not do anything because it's just too complicated.
But you have to.
And I think that no matter what happens, what the fallout is, if it all blows up, you need to be a good sister to your brother.
Like that, I can't stress enough.
Like, I can't even imagine how traumatizing it is to be gay, hiding it, and with no plan of coming out.
Like, and I just think if it all blows up in his face and the family doesn't accept him, like, you just have to be a good sister.
Like, that is the priority.
Yeah.
I agree.
Terrible, but good batch of tear toasters today.
Yes, very good batch.
Justice for the second girl.
I will be thinking about her for the rest of the day.
Yeah, please feel free to share updates on your decision.
Oh, and I hope Joe and the girl, even though it's not about Joe.
No.
But I do ship.
I would love to see you in a few years on that ranch, girlfriends.
So make it happen.
Yeah.
But only after, you know,
taking time for yourself, going through a breakup, not just jumping into decisions because you like the way that they look.
And their farm.
And the farm.
Quickly before we wrap up, I just want to talk about the Shaws of Sunset reunion, which was probably the most contentious reunion I've seen in my time.
And Andy went on radio, Andy, and said it was like the most vicious place he'd ever been.
Like they were saying the absolute nastiest things to each other, most of which they had to cut out.
Like it was just so
the show, it was almost bad how mean the reunion was because there's no coming back from it.
And I feel so torn because forever Reza and MJ were both of my favorite people.
And I think I'm on MJ's side, like for the most part, partially just because I love her and she comes on the show so much.
And I can't imagine her being mean because she's lovely.
And partially because most of what Reza is claiming to be upset about her, there's no proof.
And it all happened off camera.
So it's like what Reza did to MJ is all on camera saying that horrible thing about abortions on camera, on camera.
So it's like we're supposed to disagree with MJ.
We're like, I was so confused at the end.
I'm like, I don't even know what we're fighting about anymore.
Like, yeah.
And they asked everyone to leave except for Reza, MJ, and then had Mike and Andy mediate, which I thought was a great format, but they were just not even listening to each other, screaming, getting up every 10 seconds, leaving, coming back, leaving, coming back.
It was,
it was like, devastating.
Like these two people are, like, they're never going to be friends again.
So you did your poll on Instagram.
Oh, Oh, let me see what the results were.
Well, it was not a landslide, but MJ was winning slightly.
Now it is ready.
60% MJ,
40% Reza.
Yeah.
Which is not even like a real landslide.
No.
But I guess that's, I feel like that.
reflects how you feel about it.
Yeah.
And I still love Reza, but like, honestly, Adam is just the worst and he's the cause of all of this.
And he did admit that.
And he was like, can you admit that, like, if you didn't send these text messages, like, none of this would have happened?
And he was like, yeah, I can.
And, like, the whole cast started clapping.
Because it was like, this friendship of 30 years has been deteriorated from your poor decisions.
And it's like, I don't even blame Reza so much because he's just doing what he's going to do to protect his family because him and Adam are still married.
And even though, is that the person I would have chose for Reza?
No.
But it is who he chose.
And that's that on that.
Like, he's just defending his husband.
And part of me like respects him for that.
But what he said to MJ towards the end of the season was just so unbelievably
not okay.
Yeah.
It was just, it was like not even a, I didn't get any closure from the reunion.
It was just,
and everyone like piling on MJ, like Destiny and Gigi.
Like, I wasn't here for that at all.
No.
Like, Gigi just hates MJ, like, 100%.
Like, she's hated her forever.
And Destiny just wants to be on the show, I think.
And she just wants to do what the group is doing so she doesn't become an outcast like MJ is now.
I haven't watched your reunion.
You're not making me want to.
It wasn't fabulous.
I'm not going to lie.
Yeah.
And it's just like, where do you go from there?
Right.
Someone has to leave the show.
Yeah.
It'll be interesting.
The show suffers.
Yeah.
No, MJ has to be suffering.
And what made the show so great for so long was the real familial connection.
30 years of friendship.
Most people just, the real house is in New York, they never see each other.
They just get together to film.
Like, this was a real group of friends, and the show ruined it.
Yeah.
I mean, that's what shows do.
That's what shows do.
Anything else we want to discuss before we wrap it up?
No, I think that's all she wrote.
