Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to the Morning Toast.

Happy Thursday.

We are almost done with the week.

It's our second show in our new studio.

And it's wonderful because Vicheman is here.

He heard us singing about him on yesterday's show.

Oh, he's taking his rightful spot in the throne in Morning Toast Studio.

Before we start going live, like he's like licking my leg, like humping us.

And the second he hears that soothing, delicious sound of good morning, millennials, he takes his rightful spot

as the king of this castle.

Yeah.

And he just lays.

And that's why he's the perfect crunchy angel, Dora.

Beautiful Chemin.

Oh, God, we're going to...

We sing that song when we're leaving somewhere.

So we can't sing it in front of him.

Yeah, he's going to think like it's time to go OUT.

I hope everyone had a fabulous week.

I'm so looking forward to this week being over.

Me too.

I can't believe it's Thursday.

Since we did our first show yesterday here, it feels like a Tuesday, which is a wonderful feeling because tomorrow's Friday.

I know.

It's really all about how you can cheat the week.

Do you have any big plans this weekend, sis?

I have some little plans.

Yeah.

But I just plan on reading and being home and just doing my thing.

I know.

I know we've been at home for so long, but I just want to say, like, I still love it.

I don't even know what I love anymore.

That is the mantra of quarantine.

Like I don't even know what I want actually I know what I want to be doing but as far as being in New York City like I don't want to go to a restaurant I don't want a roachy vibe.

Yes.

Like I made a pasta prima vera last night.

I saw we were FaceTiming while I made a prima vera and um

It was good.

There was no roaches in it.

I had chicken fingers for dinner in the air fryer So it was like totally healthy and delicious and I'm so pleased with my decision and then I had some ices I ate like a real six-year-old at the country club meal yesterday, like chicken fingers and lemon ices.

That sounds delicious.

And what did T-H-E-O have for dinner?

He had the usual royal canin, only the finest, the low-fat, gastrointestinal kind, because he is, you know, a predisposition to heart conditions.

It's part of his breed.

He's so cute.

I'm so happy he's back.

Like, there was a time when I was spending every day with him, and then there was a time when I was spending no days with him.

We got a lot of comments on our YouTube that people were so excited we were back in studio, and the quality is so fabulous.

And now I'm just like worried because I didn't shave my legs.

And like,

is is the quality too good

no I don't see any hairs you look good to me oh my god that is so sweet thank you so much I mean I watched I guess I got so comfortable doing zoom from my house that like when I went on yesterday's episode like I just looked like a like an actual piece of cardboard like I was so wide and like it was just so bad so now I'm like so aware of my body and everyone gave me shit they were like you're wearing a sweater and jeans in 90 degree weather and it's like yeah it's called being self-conscious like leave me alone it's called being in quarantine there's no such thing as weather so now i've been shamed into showing more more skin.

Wow.

Yeah.

Well, I'm, I can't, I'm not complaining.

Oh, thank you.

I'm not complaining.

We have a fabulous show for you guys today, of course.

I sound like a guy on the news who's like, crazy.

I am not complaining.

Like the weather guy.

Oh, a little skin today.

I'm not complaining.

We have a fabulous show for you guys today.

Of course, we are going to deliver the fast five.

There's no TV recap this week, so like, okay.

But I did watch Bravo was just being so kind to me yesterday, and they were playing like three-year-old seasons of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, like Doreet and Teddy's first seasons.

And it was so enjoyable.

It was just like such a good time to be a Housewives fan.

And then they did one of those Watch with the Housewives, but they had Luann and Sonia watching an episode of Beverly Hills where the girls from Beverly Hills were in New York.

Oh.

And it was hysterical.

Like Sonia Morgan is just like made for TV.

She kept calling Dorit Dorit.

Oh my God.

And she's like, who's that girl?

Oh, don't mess with LVP.

Pat the puss.

Like she, she knew a little.

And it was just so enjoyable.

Like they were being so funny, and it was actually a great concept for a show outside of quarantine.

Yeah, I really enjoyed it.

It's like the people's couch, but with interesting people, with the people themselves, talking about the other people.

Oh, and also, you know what I found out recently?

Did you know that Destiny from Shaws of Sunset and her sister were on the people's couch?

I did know that, actually.

Fascinating.

I think you knew that, but it's probably fresh news for you.

And it'll be fresh again in three months.

Also, about the people's couch,

I forgot what I was going to say, but speaking of me forgetting things, I had another therapy session yesterday, and I was telling her like about my memory, and she really thinks that it's like something I'm doing subconsciously.

Like, selective, yeah, like to bury memories from my past or something.

Wow, that's Claudia, that's deep.

I know, it was really profound.

I didn't want to hear it, you know?

No, I'm not sure.

I'm like, no, no, doctor, I just have bad memory.

No, so they could come back to you.

You could bring them back.

Bring them back.

Yeah, no, I need to see some sort of like

hallucination.

Yeah.

Ooh, you are getting sleepy.

It's pretty spooky stuff.

Pretty spooky.

Speaking of spooky stuff, we also have a KMN segment today, but it's actually not so mind-less.

So I'm really looking forward to getting into that.

Me too.

Also, yesterday we did a Patreon episode, general QA.

People asked us a ton of questions.

We were like feeling particularly honest.

And we were feeling particularly raw.

We were.

And we talked about the new studio, why we moved studios.

It's like not that, the team's not that hot, but it was interesting.

So head on over to patreon.com slash the morning toast.

If you want to hear that full story, along with other tidbits about how we're doing, spoiler alert, it's not well.

No, not well, bitch.

Ask me how I'm doing?

Not well, bitch.

But we're entering phase two.

I'm feeling back in the studio.

Like yesterday, I felt like my life

had purpose.

I completely agree.

I'm so glad.

It's a new leaf.

But then I weighed myself this morning and it's a big old leaf.

And so now that's my focus.

Okay, well,

whatever.

You look fine.

You look great.

It It wasn't good.

You look great.

It wasn't good, but thank you.

So should we just like do the damn thing?

I think we should get right into it, into the fast side stories that you need to know, yes, you, before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast.

And I'll do it.

I promise.

Like I will, I will dive in.

I always do.

I don't make promises that I can't keep.

But it's really important to me that I say something, if you'll allow me, the floor.

Sure, yes.

I'm all about like open dialogue.

Please.

It's really important to me that I let everyone know that today's episode is brought to you by noon.

Getting in shape doesn't have to be about losing a specific amount of weight or a magic number on the scale.

It's about building healthier habits and feeling better about yourself.

If fitting into that favorite pair of jeans is your goal, great.

But there are more reasons why you might want to practice self-care and every person is different.

For me, when I want to lose weight, it's always about just feeling better physically because when I do gain weight, like I feel very fatigued and very tired all the time, which makes sense.

Yeah, this is about to be a noom heavy day for me.

Like I'm turning to noom at this time in my in my life.

Okay, first story.

You ready for it?

I'm, I've literally never been so ready for anything in my entire fucking life.

Caitlyn Jenner goes golfing with Bachelor Peter Weber and his family.

In today's most random headlines of the day ever.

Caitlin Jenner and Peter Webber are getting competitive.

The 70-year-old reality star took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a pic of herself with the former bachelor star and his dad, Peter Webber Sr., and his brother, Jack Weber.

The group was all smiles and a selfie after spending the day on the golf course.

and Peter Sr.

walked away from the game victorious with the former showing off $1 prize in the picture.

I just have to say, like, playing for $1 is like only a thing rich people do, like, ironically.

It's so annoying.

Like, play for real money, first of all.

Second of all, Peter's brother's name is Jack Weber.

I just feel like that is like, I could build a whole like TV show around the name Jack Weber.

Well, isn't that the name of a barbecue?

Oh, maybe that's what it is.

It's Weber Barbecue.

Whatever, like Jack Weber, attorney at law.

Like, something about it.

It's just like a fabulous name.

Yeah, it's catchy.

So many people sent me this photo on Instagram, and I didn't know what I was looking at for like 30 minutes because I didn't recognize his dad or his brother.

And then like Peter was just in the corner.

I'm like, why do I care about Caitlin Jenner going to play golf?

I'm like, she's not wearing a mask.

Very interesting.

But like, I didn't understand what I was looking at.

And then I was like, what the fuck?

And Barb, the mom, was like commenting on it.

Like, I just, it's killing me deep down to not know how these people got connected.

Yeah.

I don't even want to begin to pretend like I know.

Like, I know that there was a spotting of like Peter at the same house party as Kylie one time.

I don't think that translated into Peter playing golf.

Do you think that Caitlin is like a big fan of The Bachelor?

Maybe, but I don't really see that for Caitlin.

No, not at all.

Like, she's too mature.

Yeah.

So, I mean, maybe, maybe, like, they all, oh, actually, because Peter is from California.

Maybe they all just belong to the same country club.

Like, maybe the country club set up like Reality TV Stars has been like session.

community in the group.

Yeah, and then from there they took it to the links or they're both from the country club and like Peter's dad met Caitlin.

Yes, through like a support group for like reality TV for washed up reality stars.

Yeah, it's so confusing.

I would love to know like the actual truth.

I'm sure it's not that interesting

how they all got connected.

I just I think it's worth noting that Caitlin has food in her teeth in the photo.

A little piece of, it looks like bread in between her two front teeth.

And I just think it was really fucked up of Peter not to like point it out before she posted a photo that he knew was going to be seen by millions of people.

Peter's in the background, like he didn't know.

This is all on Caitlin.

She took the photo, she posted the photo, and she didn't do Zoom, but you know what?

She's eating good, and like, let her live.

You know, when

we had that discussion a little while ago, like, when Taylor Swift released her track list for her album, and there was a song called Paper Rings, and we were like, the whole concept is like, oh, I love you so much.

Like, I'll marry you with a paper ring, like, not a diamond, which is like only a thing rich people say to, like, prove that they're humble.

That's like the same thing here, playing for $1.

Like if Ben plays with his friends, they'll each put in like $100.

So like you make it interesting.

So you're working towards something.

Like winning has meaning besides just the arbitrary win.

And this is just like, I don't know why out of all of this, the thing that bothers me the most is that they played for $1.

It's like everyone on this course is rich.

Like they obviously belong to a rich country club.

Like let's play for some money.

Yeah.

Yeah, I wonder what the dollar symbolizes.

Maybe we'll get some answers, you know,

a bit of a follow-up.

It's just such like a quirky, rich thing to do, and it like bothers me so much.

Yeah, that would bother you.

Yeah, no, it's it doesn't not bother me.

No, it bothers me so much.

Ooh, hey Theodore.

I think it bothers Theo too.

Look at him.

He looks very disturbed.

Alert.

Disturbed.

Disturbed.

Whoever said that orange was the new black is seriously disturbed.

Oh, orange is a new pink.

Sorry.

Oh my god.

Are you ready for the next color?

For the next

color?

They said the next Taylor.

Because I was talking about colors.

Yes, I'm ready.

Okay.

Jenny Slade and Kristen Bell's animated TV roles will be recast with black or mixed race actors.

I saw this very interesting.

Big Mouth's Jenny Slate and Central Parks Kristen Bell are stepping down from their roles on the anime series, which will both recast the characters with a black or mixed-race actor.

Jenny Slate revealed the news on Wednesday, explaining that she, a white woman, can no longer play the role of Missy, a biracial character on the animated Netflix series created by Nick Kroll.

She said she has come to the decision today that I can no longer play the character of Missy on the animated TV show Big Mouth.

At the start of the show, I reasoned with myself that it was permissible for me to play Missy because her mom is Jewish and white,

am I.

But Missy is also black, and black characters on an animated show should be played by black people.

Yeah, no, I think this is very noble.

Um, I do understand why she took the part, like, if the character is half Jewish, like, it kind of makes sense.

But I'm curious, I want to talk about the Kristen Bell of it all.

She played a black character, so she

was playing Molly Tillerman, who's mixed race, on the Apple TV Plus series Central Park.

Oh, so this is a different show, yes.

Okay, okay, okay.

Ben loves Big Mouth, so I'm only familiar with Big Mouth.

Oh, he tried to get me to watch it once, and like, I have such a hard time as an adult, like, watching adult cartoons, and I know that there's like a huge demographic for it, and there are some really funny, like, family guy stuff, but, like, between, like, South Park, and I'm not, like, shitting on them, they're fabulous programming, but like, I, as an adult, like, I cannot watch cartoons.

I just can't.

You know what?

Like, you can't consume everything, and not everything is made for you.

And so, if you're not going to do cartoons, like, that's fine.

But, you know what's weird about that?

Is that like, I am probably the biggest fan of the movie Ted.

And that's really the same.

It's Seth McFarlane.

It's the same type of human.

Oh, 100%.

I thought you were going to say like that somehow is a cartoon because it is because he's a bear.

But the whole movie is set in real life Boston.

But I just find it interesting that like that's probably my favorite movie.

And I've never seen any of other, like Seth McFarlane's other work.

Yeah.

That makes sense.

I mean, same for me, so it makes sense to me.

So Jenny Slate, like I know she's, we talk about her all the time because she dated Chris Pine Cones or

and because

she's the wife of the Polka King.

Well, so that's what I was gonna say.

Like, I'm sure she's like renowned in her field for many things.

Like, she's very successful, but in my mind, she will never not be Jack Black's wife in the Polka King.

And did we ever assign the Polka King as a toast movie of the week?

No, and we wouldn't do that to you guys because it was like an insane movie.

Oh, no.

I loved it.

No, we like, I don't know.

Daddy loves you.

It was just a very strange premise.

It's so crazy.

It's the craziest story I ever heard.

But what's crazy about it is that it's true.

It's the craziest.

If you're interested, like it's about, it's honestly could have been an episode of American Greed.

It's about like a small-ish Ponzi scheme that happened in the Northeast about this Polish guy who like came to America and like literally just started taking old people's money and like investing it in his polka band.

A polka singer with a polka band.

Remember they had the bear?

Wait, but he's like investing in more bear costumes.

At one point got nominated for a Grammy in like the polka category.

They went to the Grammys and they were snubbed.

Of course, but like just the fact, honestly, the movie is so good because the fact that this actually happened like in our country like in recent history is the craziest thing of all time.

Yeah.

J.B.

Smoove was in it.

Like it was actually really star-studded.

Yeah.

If you like if this sounds interesting to you, watch it, but it's not mandatory viewing because a lot of you will probably be like, what the fuck am I watching?

It's not mandatory viewing because we saw it and we thought it was like fabulous.

And then we made our husbands watch it when we were on vacation in Turks and Caicos.

Right.

And we thought they would love it because they're free.

They love Jack Black.

And they're just weird.

Like together, they're just weird.

And we thought they would like it.

And like they never forgave us for for taking up those two hours of their life.

And so we wouldn't do that to you guys.

But some of you guys might really like it.

And it was a fabulous movie.

It's just, it's just insane that it happened.

So like that's what really carries the movie.

Of course.

Like if it wasn't a true story, it wouldn't be interesting because it would be like this could never happen.

Ever.

So anyways, Jenny Slate, maybe she'll be in the Poca King sequel.

Oh, I'm very much looking forward to him when he gets out of jail.

Didn't he go to jail?

Oh, spoiler alert.

Yeah, okay.

We'll spoil it another time.

Yeah.

But anyways, I think that this is the right decision for both of them and I look forward to seeing who they cast.

Not that I watch these shows, but you never know.

Yeah.

I feel like I would love to do some voiceover work.

Of course, that's everyone's like dream job.

It's like the easiest paycheck of all time.

Yeah.

All you have to do is talk.

Right.

And also, it's not just a paycheck.

Like if you get into the right animated feature, wow.

Right.

So it's like, it's all the perks of podcasting, like no makeup, but just way more money because you're working for like Pixar.

right i could just see me in the booth you know like with a fountain actually i wouldn't have fountain soda it creates carbonation and you know hurts my vocal cords maybe your character would be a burpee character therefore

i would be like the 7-eleven junkie who like never leaves the fountain soda station and like oh i would you know i would work at 7-eleven and i would like always be like chomping on my soda um wow this story is just writing itself right exactly okay are you ready for our next story Some people we've been talking about this week who are just some of our faves and they're being sweet.

Okay, who are we talking about?

So, it's some sweet news.

Is it Gabrielle Union?

No, we've been talking about her so much.

We have been.

It's Lauren Bushnell, who penned a tribute to her husband, Chris Lane, as she reveals they've been praying to start a family.

It was,

it put every other Instagram caption ever created to shame.

It was the sweetest thing I'd ever seen in my life, and I fucking love her, and I stand and I ship 1,000% OTP for the rest of my life.

100%.

We don't usually make Instagram captions stories here at the Morning Toast, but it's our rule not to to because it's so insane.

No, our rule is not to make Instagram comments stories because it's like just a comment, not a story.

But

this caption in particular just struck a chord.

So I'm going to share it with you guys if you don't mind.

And I think it was kind of in response to like why she didn't post about Ben's season and like where she's at in her life.

Yeah.

So she said, husband appreciation post.

We got engaged about a year ago and y'all, I don't know what I did to deserve this man.

About to get personal, but I am very excited to start a family and get asked when we are having kids all the time.

But it just hasn't happened yet.

She went on to share how she opened up to Chris, her husband, about expanding their family.

She said, when I was talking about it with Chris, he said, well, have you prayed about it?

I said, well, yes.

And he responded, have you really prayed hard about it?

If that's what we really want, pray and know it will happen in God's time if it's what he wants for us.

I'll pray with you.

As I write this now, I literally have tears streaming down my face because I cannot imagine living without you, Chris Lane.

I am so lucky I get to wake up next to you every morning, lucky I get to pray next to you, and I'm continually humbled by your heart of gold.

Before we dive into like the preciousness that is this, I just need to come out and say, like, we need to stop asking like married and engaged people like when they're having children.

It is the most disrespectful question.

Like, you never know.

Like, what if the person you're asking has been trying and like having a hard time and like you're just fucking digging the knife in?

Like, let's stop fucking asking that question.

It is inappropriate and it's none of your fucking business.

Okay, sorry.

Now back to the sweetness.

I just, this caption is

it's so beautiful.

It's so sweet.

Yeah, that's beautiful.

And I feel like it's a real window into their relationship.

And, you know, they share a lot on social media, but like, you really never know what is going on in a relationship.

And I just feel like this was just everything I needed to know about them.

Like, they're religious, they're so in love.

I mean, the way their relationship came about was so interesting because she was just like, I think hired to do, or like a friend connected them to film

one of his music videos in the Bahamas.

And everyone was like, are they dating?

Are they dating?

And I think we spoke about it like on the morning breath.

And she texted me and she was like, We're not dating.

I'm like, Okay, so I got the scoop.

And then literally a month later, I was like, Talking to her, I'm like, What's up?

She's like, Oh my god, I'm getting married.

I love him so much.

And I'm like, What?

I'm like, The last time we spoke, you said you weren't even dating.

She's like, No, like, literally, this is the man I'm gonna marry.

I'm like, This bitch is crazy.

But she was right.

Yeah, when you know, you know, when you know, you know.

And this was just so sweet.

I love them so much.

And I really like, there are very few people in this world that I truly only want good things for, and these are two of them.

Like, I just love them.

Agreed.

Okay, next story is kind of sad.

So, shifting gears to a sad gear.

U.S.

Paralympian Angela Madsen, have you seen the story?

No.

Died at 60 after an ocean rowing accident.

U.S.

Paralympian Angela Madsen passed away when she was attempting to row from LA to Hawaii.

So this is a really sad story.

She was rowing from across the Pacific Ocean from where to where?

LA to Hawaii at 60 years old.

And her wife, Deborah, confirmed the news in a personal Facebook post saying, with extreme sadness, I must announce that Angela Madsen will not complete her solo row to Hawaii.

I received her last text Saturday night.

Sunday, she was not responding to my text messages.

When I checked the main message box, she had not returned any messages.

When I looked at the tracking, it did not appear that she was rowing the boat, but rather that it was drifting.

Knowing she was planning to enter the water to fix her hardware to deploy the power anchor from the bow, I was concerned she did not text when she got back on the boat.

She was about as far from any land as she could get, and the communication can be a challenge.

I was hopeful, but still had a feeling of heaviness in my chest.

Wow.

So what was the point of this journey?

Like was it to like to break a record or perhaps or just like this is to do it.

That's crazy.

Yeah.

Wow.

Oh my god.

That's so sad.

How do you communicate with someone who's in the middle of the ocean?

I guess she had her phone.

She said she checked the message box.

The inbox.

Like the voicemail?

I don't know.

Maybe they were using some chat app or something.

Wow, that's so sad.

Really sad story.

What an amazing woman.

Right.

So that's why I wanted to highlight it.

Totally.

Wow, that's like so sad.

I know, but I could flip with some other amazing woman news that's positive.

Sure.

NASA names DC.

Oh my God, of course I saw this.

Like, it's just everything.

Fabulous news, fabulousness, all around.

This situation oozes to me.

Fabulousness.

NASA names DC headquarters after its first black woman engineer, hidden figure, Mary Jackson.

So since we've all seen hidden figures at this point, Mary Jackson was played by Janelle Monet, and NASA plans to immortalize her, one of their trailblazing alums,

by naming Washington, D.C.'s headquarter complex after her.

Wow.

This is just incredible.

Can I say something controversial, though?

It's such good news, but like, I can't help but wonder if they would have done this if like that movie hadn't been made.

Because they were so,

they were the hidden figures.

Like NASA was responsible.

NASA, the corporation, was responsible for hiding these stories.

And I don't think as many people would have known about it.

I know Catherine Johnson wrote a book, but it became this national sensation with the book and the movie.

But it's like, I don't know, part of me is like, this is a little late.

Yes, I see how you could see it that way.

I'm choosing to see the positive here, also.

Buildings are named after people all the time, and we don't talk about it on the show because they're not named after people who are starring the movies.

Yeah.

So there's a chance that they would have done this anyway, and we just wouldn't have understood the significance.

Is Mary Jackson still alive?

Um,

I don't, I don't know.

I don't

think it's so because I'm just curious if she

is able to see the fruits of her labor.

I know.

No, she's okay.

She's dead.

So it's like, oh, wouldn't it have been nice for them to do this, you know, when she was alive?

Right.

And she could finally get the respect she fucking deserves.

And now her legacy lives on forever.

Forever, forever and ever.

I think this is fabulous news.

I just, you know, me, I'm always so cynical.

Yes, of course.

But I just think it was worth noting.

It's worth noting.

And if you haven't watched Hidden Figures yet, you guys are missing out on

the film of a lifetime.

Well, if you're watching the show, you obviously participate in Toast Movie.

But maybe they got, maybe they pushed back their homework and they haven't delivered yet.

Speaking of homework, we decided to just change up Toast Movie of the Week.

I wanted to tell everyone we're assigning it on Mondays and we're going to start recapping it on Mondays because I really like watching them on Sundays.

Yeah, and we've been recapping them on Mondays, and that way everyone gets more time to watch it.

And I think that makes more sense.

Monday to Monday.

So if you're ever looking for a recap, it's on a Monday.

If you're ever looking for the new assignment, it is also on a Monday.

Great.

Now it's time for one of my favorite segments ever created.

And it's going to be a little

crazy today.

Is it some Kelly's mindless news?

Like the 4th of July.

Whenever you're around.

It is.

Because it's actually not so mindless, Jackie.

And Kelly's, you know, kind of joining our crew because she's found herself in a little bit of a controversy.

Is it Kelly's controversial news?

It's Kelly's, you know, mysterious news because according to good housekeeping.

According to good housekeeping where is kelly rippa fans are asking a lot of questions about the live co-host fans of live with kelly and ryan routinely routinely start their day off with co-hosts kelly ripa and ryan seagress sea crest i'm sorry i'm like having a stroke when the coronavirus pandemic prompted shutdowns and quarantining in march the abc stars reassured fans that the show would go on even if it meant filming remotely since then the pair has been doing just that though it hasn't always been clear where kelly is filming from in case you're curious about kelly's whereabouts here's what we found Where is Kelly Rippa filming live with Kelly and Ryan?

In late May, news broke that Kelly, her husband, Markinsuelos, and their three children were quarantining in the Caribbean instead of New York City.

So she was a little like shady about not mentioning that for a while.

Right, and we, that was actually what spurned Kelly's Mindless News because I reported that as mindful news.

And then you were like, there's always these stories about Kelly Rippa.

Now it's coming full circle.

The story goes that the family was enjoying a vacation when they were suddenly instructed to shelter in place.

And that's exactly what they did, though the talk show host chose not to disclose this information to the viewers until a fellow ABC employee brought the story to light.

I'll tell you, there's tea here.

We had planned a trip for our family, Kelly said, and we arrived three days later.

The entire world changed, really.

I mean, everything shut down, the government shut down, our country shut down.

I hate to use the word stuck, but we were.

So we decided to stay where we were.

Kelly went on to explain that she and Ryan decided to continue filming live with Kelly and Ryan in the hopes that it would bring some normalcy to their lives during an unprecedented time.

I think it's been a great benefit to have each other, to have our viewing audience.

So, is Kelly Ripa still in the Caribbean or back in NYC?

It's a fabulous question.

Now, it appears that Kelly is back in New York.

Over Father's Day weekend, Hello Magazine noticed that she posted footage of Mark wearing a mask and walking around the Big Apple.

Though we can't be 100% certain, the social media post seems to be a sign that the couple has finally returned to their home after being away for three months.

Regardless of her location, Kelly intends to enjoy her summer, of course, some mindlessness, which includes having a fun and safe celebration for her mom's birthday.

When Ryan asked what the plan was, she said, I don't know, probably just going to hang out in the driveway if i know my mom she doesn't really want to talk about it or address it in any big way so it's going to be a big driveway hang maybe look at her through the glass so what this article is saying is that you know kelly ripa's just like us she's a little shady

she's a little shady see it honestly um i feel actually maybe like all this mindless news was like a distraction from the fact that like her whereabouts were slightly unknown yeah i mean i feel actually in real in the real world like i feel two ways about this like kelly ripa is a celebrity, but she doesn't have this, like, we don't have this entitlement to like know where she is at all times.

Like, that's her fucking business.

She's with her family.

But also, at the same time, like, girlfriend, you do an everyday show.

Like, where are you?

Yeah.

Where are you at?

But it's like, at the same time, sorry, I have so many feelings about this, actually.

People are just, especially in the quarantine, like so quick to judge all your decisions, like what you do with your family.

Like, you left the house, you didn't do this.

And so it's like, of course, she doesn't want to put her and her family in the center of that.

So actually, you know what?

I can actually respect her being shady.

Yeah.

But I mean, she found a way to go three months in the Caribbean, making it look like a New York City apartment somehow.

So, good for her.

Yeah, I wonder what the T is with the ABC staffer who, like,

exposed her.

Yeah.

After she was not happy.

No.

Because she's also, like.

Yeah, no, I mean, when I think of, when you think of Kelly Rippa, what do you think of?

Kelly's Mindless News.

Well,

okay, but then if I think deeper and harder, I think about like Michael Strahan.

And like the just, like, how she acted in such a disgraceful way.

Yeah.

Like, literally, she makes like $30 million a year and she just decided not to show up for work for an entire week because her co-host decided to get a better job.

Like, yeah.

Good for fucking Michael Strahan.

Michael Strahan is a definition of like being funny, nice, personable, and good at your job like gets you really far.

Like, no, it's like he did such a great job on Kelly.

Yeah.

And

he got a better job.

Like, what we should not encourage people to get promotions.

Yeah.

And I know she was like upset about the way that he told her, but I just think like,

that's my least favorite thing.

like ever when people get upset like not about like what the news itself even though like that's really what you're fucking upset about no it's like that's the way that you you said it.

It's the way that you told me how you told me.

I'm like,

the news is the news.

No, and like, what's bothering you?

Let's be real, is the news.

Like, of course.

I mean, don't get me wrong, like, I do that all the time.

I'm like, it's not that you said it, it's like how you said it.

Yeah, no, I do not subscribe.

It's like,

you should have texted.

Yeah.

You know.

I love Kelly's Mindless News.

It's like some of my favorite fodder.

I hope to never run into her.

You know?

Yeah.

Good thing we run in very different circles.

Good thing we can't leave our house.

Oh, good thing she's in the Caribbean.

Gradually.

So that's Kelly's Mindless News.

We have no TV to recap.

Like, I hate that our episodes have been so short recently, but it's just because we usually, we're doing the same thing, but we usually have more to talk about because there's so much TV on, whether it's The Bachelor or

our lives and fabulous things that we did, but we're not really.

I did start a new book last night.

Actually, two new books, but one that I'll share is Such a Fun Age by Kylie Reed.

Yes, also there's

a major truck behind us.

But I heard that everyone was really excited about all the sounds yesterday, and by everyone, I mean, like, like one person so just it's exciting.

It just means that life is here you guys like life is resumed.

I can't get upset about the fact that there's like major construction because they haven't been able to construct for three months.

No, but like literally the biggest truck like us an actual yacht just drove by like it was so loud.

Like there's a ship coming in.

What book did you start?

It's called Such a Fun Age by Kylie Reid.

A lot of people, I think I think it was Arisa's book club pick.

So, you know, it's really good.

And I think a lot of people have already read it, but I just started it last night.

I love the way that it's written.

It's like such a great story already so um i'm looking forward to it and we'll we're doing the re the redheads next week so i'll recap all of the books that i read what's the redheads book for this month my angelou oh right oh my god you know i started it i i it's so hard to keep up with books i don't know how you guys do it i literally don't even know where the book is now i took it oh okay that's so that's your excuse i did snag it from her so why the cage i know why the cage bird sings by maya angelou and um there's also tons of new episodes of tnn shows yes margaret josephs and her co-host lexia have been fucking churning out in quarantine video podcast episodes and they moved to twice a week.
