Speaker 0 Good morning, girlies. It's the toast.

Speaker 1 It's Jackson Claude, and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show, the fast five things you need to know.

Speaker 1 We'll start your day off swirly. It's the toast.

Speaker 1 I sound amazing.

Speaker 1 Welcome back to the toast and happy Thursday. And might I say, go dogs?

Speaker 1 Because today's co-host is not only a Georgia native, a swirly, a gal on the go, she's also a co-host almost five years in the making. Well, no,

Speaker 1 three years in the making. Because, well, first of all, it's Danielle Carolyn.
Welcome to the toast, Danielle Carolyn. Thank you so much.
You said my name correctly.

Speaker 1 I love the way you and Margo are. Why do people say your name? Caroline.
I'm like, where's the action? Actually, you know what? I was talking to Ben this morning and he was like, Danielle Carolyn.

Speaker 1 I'm like, no, it's Danielle Caroline, actually. This is actually your second time on the toast.
A lot of people don't know that. It's my second time on the toast.

Speaker 1 The first time I was literally in college, and I was here for a weekend.

Speaker 1 But do you know how many people tell us that they like came to the toast for the first time for your episode and like stuck around?

Speaker 1 We had like so many toasters who started their journey on the toast from you. Like a lot of our youth, our college-aged listeners.
Our youth will let me tell you, your youth is still going.

Speaker 1 I'm getting girls that are actively at the University of Georgia texting me this morning. Wait, are you the one on the toast today? Oh, my God, goatswogs.

Speaker 1 Goatswalks, we also have to talk about the fact that a year or two ago, we were both in Athens without stay laughing. I have been to AUGA.

Speaker 1 No, but Claudia, what's the funniest thing is like, you were like royalty there that day. I, we were all, I was there too, like, with us at the time.

Speaker 1 You're like the most famous alum, at least the most famous alum that I know. No, no.
You and Jet. Jet, yes.
I know. I saw a lot of people thought it was going to be Jet.
Jet, imagine Jet, my co-host.

Speaker 1 No Pookie, just Jet. That would be hilarious.
Hold the pookie.

Speaker 1 Hold the Pookie. No, no.
It was so funny, though, because I remember being like, oh, like Claudia was like backstage. And I just like popped in for a second.
Honestly.

Speaker 1 I never felt more famous than I did when I went to UGA. I love you.
Not me being huge in the South. Huge in the South.

Speaker 1 and you also like did the greek grind thing right you hosted greetings oh my god yes okay so like and you did it like like eight years ago yeah i hosted greek grind which i think is like this big deal i had no fucking idea what it was and i had a great time like it was super fun i made like a couple of jokes that people did not like about chick-fil-a like everyone was so sensitive i'm like okay sorry it's not that good um you don't like chick-fil-like no no it's good it's not i don't like it like it's chicken nuggets what's not to like of course but like mcdonald's is also good people act like chick-fil-a is so much better and different if there's anything out here that's like different it's Raisin Canes.

Speaker 1 Like they're different. I love them.
Chick-fil-A is just like fast food. It's delicious.
I love fast food. It deserves a Michelin star, but like what's so different than Wendy's? You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 So you like McDonald's better than Chick-fil-A? Okay, so I have a very complicated relationship with fast food in the sense that like, yes, I'm toxic and I think McDonald's is better than everything.

Speaker 1 And it's crazy that people like want to go out and like go to like the world's most famous omikase. And I'm like, but have you guys ever tried McDonald's?

Speaker 1 Like to me, McDonald's deserves a Michelin star. But you're like a plain eater, right? Extremely plain.
Yeah. You do, Claudia.
Are you? I'm so picky. I do not eat seafood.
I do not eat bushy.

Speaker 1 I don't like a lot of sauces. Oh, me.
Do you like ketchup? Only ketchup. Same.
I don't like mustard. No mustard.
Oh, really? No mayo. No mayo, yucky, no mayo.
Wait, so do you like chicken salad? Yuck!

Speaker 1 Same! Oh my god, I don't like any of those salads. I don't eat tuna salads, I don't eat chicken salad, I don't eat egg salad.
So what do you eat?

Speaker 1 Like literally the same as you, I feel like like pasta, chicken, rice. Oh my god, yuck! No, when you talk about that, I'm like,

Speaker 1 yeah, well, there's also, which is. I've never met another ARFID.
You know, we have an eating disorder. It's called RFID.
Acute restrictive food something disorder.

Speaker 1 Wait, containment disorder yeah do people like make it like i'll try not to make it a problem but then of course because i don't know people talking about yeah they eat this i'm like no no just leave me alone everyone's like should we share tapath i'm like no i'm getting my own like this probably the salmon or the chicken and like leave me alone yeah i eat salmon oh i was gonna say you eat seafood i well just salmon that is so have you eat salmon no i've recently been trying branzino you know let me tell you it's salmon is like kind of crazy branzino you would like it tastes like nothing okay but here's my thing with that i'm like i would just rather get the chicken.

Speaker 1 Well, of course, sometimes you've got to switch it up. And let me say, restaurants don't put their whole like restussie

Speaker 1 into the chicken. The chicken

Speaker 1 is an afterthought. It's never like, no restaurants, like known for their chicken, except Frenchette.
Have you been to Frenchette? No. You got to go.

Speaker 1 You got to eat the chicken and the mashed potatoes. Like, that's a, but I feel like it's an afterthought for a lot of restaurants.
Like, just, you know. They throw the roast chicken on the menu.

Speaker 1 Whereas like Branzino's kind of like everyone's, you know, Milo. Like, they're known for their Branzino.
Yeah. Oh, my God.
Branzino. You talked about the specials, right?

Speaker 1 And how you don't care about the specials. I did talk about the specials.
I sent that to my boyfriend because I saw the clip and I was like, Ryan, this is me. Like, I hate the specials.

Speaker 1 I don't want to hit a special. You know, when they come over, I like feel so awkward because I know it's like an important part of their job.

Speaker 1 And I know they work hard on like memorizing it, but like, seriously, don't. Like, don't even bother.
Do not bother.

Speaker 1 I've never ordered a special in my life unless like mozzarella sticks are a special. Yeah, no, it's like, is there if there's a pasta?

Speaker 1 And I always feel like I'm being like kind of sophisticated when I order a mozzarella stick. Really? Yeah, it's just like, oh, okay, cheese.
I like feel like I'm at a bowling alley.

Speaker 1 I think you're probably right. But like obsessed because I'm always getting the mozzarella sticks, like the simplest thing on the menu.
Yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 Oh my God, I've never met somebody who has the same like exact, like I know a lot of picky eaters, but like people aren't as picky. Like everyone says they're a picky eater.

Speaker 1 I'm like, well, if you're eating like a Nasois salad, like you're not a picky eater. Yeah.
I am a truly picky eater. And so I've never met somebody who has the same.
Will you eat a Nasois salad?

Speaker 1 Never in my life. Okay, I actually would.

Speaker 1 Crazy. Okay, like egg and tuna.
That's really crazy. Oh, maybe I'm thinking of something else.
I don't eat tuna. Newa salad? Yeah.
No, you don't eat it. I'm thinking of like

Speaker 1 green beans and the lettuce and it's skin. Oh, that's like French.

Speaker 1 Hair cut vert. I don't know.
Oh, no, yeah, I definitely wouldn't eat that. I'm a plain eater, so I already know what I'm talking about.
No, you were supposed to be on the toast three years ago.

Speaker 1 The drama. The drama.
You were supposed to be on the toast two years ago.

Speaker 1 And literally, the day you were supposed to be on is the day that I got hit with what will go down in history as one of the craziest weekends of my life, the norovirus.

Speaker 1 Which, if you don't know the norovirus, like consider yourself so lucky, but just know it's coming for you. It's the annual stomach bug.
And I feel like that particular year, it was really crazy.

Speaker 1 It hit my household in such a sort of crazy way because, like we were really drunk on saturday night and then sunday ben woke up being like i'm sick i'm like well you just hung over and ben loves to say that like he's sick when he's just hung over

Speaker 1 and he's like crapping his pants and i'm like and i'm like

Speaker 1 how much did you drink and i really did not believe that he was sick until monday morning when it hit me

Speaker 1 Was that were we doing it on a Monday, maybe? Well, I know I did the show Monday morning and I got home and I fell asleep and I'm like, why am I falling asleep in the middle of the day?

Speaker 1 I'm not feeling right. And by that afternoon, like I had taken up permanent residence in in the bathroom.
And then Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday was like you and a couple of co-hosts.

Speaker 1 And so I've been meaning to get you back on ever since that day, but honestly, I feel triggered by your presence because it just reminds me of that horrible like 72 hour bug that I had.

Speaker 1 I feel healed enough and I'm so glad you're here. I'm here to rewrite your story.
Your noro virus story. To rewrite history.

Speaker 1 Her story.

Speaker 1 Her story. You're here on a perfect day.
We need to talk about the CMA Awards and you're a country gal. Yes.
You're a podcaster.

Speaker 1 And what I've learned, I love to have different guests from different backgrounds, but it's so much better to podcast with somebody somebody who podcasts for a living.

Speaker 1 100% because it's just, it's an art, you know? No, and I, I really wanted to come here and make your job as easy as possible because I know that feeling.

Speaker 1 Like, Brooke and I do not have guests on a lot because we just like, it literally gives us a pit, but maybe worth it. At some point when we're having babies, like, we'll have to do it.
Yes, exactly.

Speaker 1 But it makes me so anxious. Like, I actually hate it.
So I was like, I just want to make Claudia not hate her job today. I absolutely love that.
I'm here for that.

Speaker 1 I actually wanted to have you on because I did this to Margo like a couple of weeks ago and she was shocked. I said, Margo, do you know, like, Danielle Caroline is my comfort creator? What?

Speaker 1 I watch everything. And I've always followed you because you came on the toast and like you're friends with Margo and like, I followed you in a personal way.

Speaker 1 And I have come to like seriously sit back and just enjoy your content so much. I know you work really hard on it.
So I just wanted you to know like. I'm watching and I'm always buying your shit.

Speaker 1 Especially. She texts me a lot for me.
I text him. I'm like, where's that dresser from? I literally bought your dresser.

Speaker 1 And obviously, I'm not buying a lot of clothes right now because I'm just like sort of in like a precarious, you know, like in between situation.

Speaker 1 But like when I was skinny, I was like always like, Margo, asked Danielle where she got that. Like Like, I'm always.
Are you calling me skinny? Like, no, you're literally so skinny.

Speaker 1 I'm always buying your stuff. Like, I'm loving your content.
I have to say, like, I just wanted to bring you on to let the toasters know if you're in desperate need of a new comfort creator.

Speaker 1 That's what the kids say, comfort creator. I'm always watching your shit.

Speaker 1 And I've been loving your new series where you show all the, um, like, because you do a lot of like, get ready with me is a lot of day in the life. Oh, go to bed with me, wake up with me.

Speaker 1 And I think a lot of people wonder, it's like, well, where you got out of bed to set up the camera and now you're getting out of bed. And you're like, yep, I got out of bed.

Speaker 1 And you show us literally you setting up the the camera, you getting in bed to get out of bed. And it's some of my favorite content.
It's so real, Danielle. Thank you.

Speaker 1 And it's so funny because when I filmed those, I didn't know I'd eventually be showing them. Of course, I bloomed shooter, the bloopers.
But it's so funny.

Speaker 1 I was getting comments like, wait, so this is a lie. I'm like, do you fucking think we're going to bed with the camera on? That would be insane and like kind of weird and a waste of energy.

Speaker 1 A waste of energy. That's so weird.
So thank you so much. I was just like, I just have all these clips.
It's so funny. I love it.
And you went on a Disney cruise.

Speaker 1 I went on a Disney cruise and I'm actually so funny because initially I was going to come on like a little bit ago, and it was going to be after the cruise. And I was like, oh, I did have to

Speaker 1 have been so flexible. I did have to move because Jackie went, you know, one week past her due date.
And I had canceled a couple of people. So I appreciate you being flexible.

Speaker 1 I was actually happy because I feel very like ready today. Where

Speaker 1 I was coming off of like a Disney cruise, which I would just love. You would never do a cruise.

Speaker 1 Okay, so I've never been on a cruise, although I do feel as though cruises are tailored to my specific interests. Like I know it's a lot of buffets.
I know it's a lot of casinos.

Speaker 1 I know it's a lot of swimming. I fucking love to swim.
You love to swim.

Speaker 1 I just don't know if I would like enjoy being in a vessel with so many other people, you know? I really can't see you.

Speaker 1 Like, just knowing, like, I know you, and then I know Margo so well, like, I feel like you guys, Brooke and I have this phrase, like, team go. Like, I feel like you guys are team go.

Speaker 1 Like, as soon as it's time to leave an event, like, you're ready to go. Oh, yeah.
You couldn't leave the boat. That, by the way, that's an amazing call.
I love that team go. Yeah, I feel that.

Speaker 1 Team go.

Speaker 1 I will leave a place like when I'm done. Ben always says, like, when I'm done, I'm fucking done.
And that applies to an event. It applies to a person.
It applies to a TV show.

Speaker 1 Like, when I decide I'm done with something, like, you will never see me again. But it does take me a while to get done, you know? Yeah, no, of course.
So

Speaker 1 yes, I'm team go. I love it.
You're team go. And I just feel like, like, because Brooke is very team go.
And I feel like there were times even on the cruise, she's like, oh my God. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yep. It's limited, even though it's huge.
So I've never been on a cruise, but I think I would be shocked at the vastness, like the bigness of it.

Speaker 1 And what makes a Disney Cruise different? And this is not sponsored or anything.

Speaker 1 I was your kid sponsor.

Speaker 1 No, I just really went for fun. I feel like it was like a great commercial because I was like, oh, like that looks nice.
I would go back with kids, like bring Ruby with me.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. It would be so cute.
Oh, my God. Like, I don't think I could do it, honestly.
It's hard enough having a kid on land. Oh, well, yes.
In that sense, yes. But oh my God, like it is so cute.

Speaker 1 Like, imagine like being a Disney World, which you've been, I think. Yeah.
And then you go and you're on a cruise and they're playing the soundtracks in the bathroom. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, if you love Disney, like, yeah, but I don't like love Disney. Oh.
Do you know what I mean? Yeah. By the way, are you drinking Disney Adults? I am not one.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Your content was giving Disney Adults. I just want to let you know.
No, I know.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's so cute. I think she likes loves Disney.
No, I just, when I think Disney Adult, like, like, I'm getting messages from people, like, what do the carpets look like on Deck 8?

Speaker 1 Oh, you know, like, I'm not there. Yeah, right, right, right.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 But I do, I love Disney. I've gone every year with my family in December because it's very like magical.
And you're from Florida. I'm from Florida, from Tampa.
Florida, excuse me. Florida.
Florida.

Speaker 1 Florida. How do you say the fruit O-R-A-N-G-E? Orange.
Orange. Orange.
And then this is sparkling. Water.
Oh, water. Water.
Water.

Speaker 1 I love love y'all, y'all's accents. I love like the y'all.
Why did you decide to go to UGA? Because I wanted out of Florida, which is so crazy because now I'm like, I want to move back.

Speaker 1 Like one day, not tomorrow. Like I feel like I will wake up one day and be like, I'm done.
I'm going home. Yeah.
Like I'm going home. But no, I really wanted seasons.
I never saw a leafy change. Yeah.

Speaker 1 No, I will tell you because like my sisters moved to Florida and like there's so many things about their life that like is better. Yeah.
But they don't have the seasons.

Speaker 1 And I'm telling you, the seasons are everything. They're everything.
It's just everything's more magical.

Speaker 1 Like Central Park, like I am so, you probably see some of my content and you're like, this girl is so obsessed with like romanticizing.

Speaker 1 I do too, because I'm from the city, but I'm always like going to Central Park and shit. Like the corny thing is corny for a reason.
Right. Like it's good for a reason, especially this time of year.

Speaker 1 Like January and February, I'm trying to be. It's tough.
Agreed. Ooh, like I need to be in Florida.
Yeah. Florida.
Florida. Florida.

Speaker 1 I did Taylor say it in the song. Florida.
Florida. And now like wherever I go, I'm like, I'm going to Chicago, Chicago.
Oh, that's funny. I'm annoying.
You're a big Swifty, yeah?

Speaker 1 Yeah, like not as big as you. Like, I feel like I can't.
But you, like, enjoy her music. I very much, like, I went to four Aeros tours.
Right. Like, I'm there.

Speaker 1 Like, I just, oh my God, I'm so excited for a documentary. Let me ask you the question about, like, because you're an influencer and you do a lot of stuff, like, for work.

Speaker 1 How many of the Eras tours did you go to that were

Speaker 1 sponsored? And how many did you pay for? I paid for all of them. What? I was invited to go.
I think you went to the Tangle Teaser. I did.
When I was out of town. Okay.

Speaker 1 And then I was also invited by LaCroix to go to Miami, but I had already been to four or three and I was like, I think I'll get hate. So I didn't go.
Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 Remember when people were like getting hate for how many concerts they went to? The internet is seriously the worst place on the planet.

Speaker 1 I went to four eras tours, three of which I paid for my own.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I feel like you paid. And yeah, of course.
And then like

Speaker 1 it was in New York. She did three shows in New York.
I was going to one. Yeah.
And then they were like, do you want to go to the one the night before?

Speaker 1 So I'm like, yeah, I wasn't going to pay for the same. Why not? And let me tell you, the one that was sponsored was probably like 45 times less fun.
I heard this. Yeah, like.

Speaker 1 It's not all it's cracked up to me.

Speaker 1 It's a free concert for sure, but like, now let me ask you another question because you've been doing like the internet game for so long so long and what was your first like when you first started making money was it blogging or was it instagram it was youtube youtube's like my main was is my main platform so i was getting like interesting i was getting paid like 500 to post like a random necklace right right right

Speaker 1 and so now like that the landscape has changed where do you make most of your money is it tick tock or instagram yeah are you the same

Speaker 1 for me podcasting podcasting is like and you also podcast too so for me like podcast is the mothership yeah and it feeds everything else yeah oh that's cute and like so when i wake up like i have to feed the podcast and that, that will do everything else.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yeah.
True. Like, what do you, what would you consider your full-time job?

Speaker 1 I do need to feed the YouTube, but I only post once a week. But I'm just like Instagram every day.
Instagram. I would, if I, oh, that's so scary.
YouTube mothership. Yeah.

Speaker 1 How many subscribers do you have on YouTube? 500,000-ish. Slay.
That's a lot. Thank you, but like not growing.
Like it just, it's true, though. I feel like nobody's there.

Speaker 1 I feel like this era, like nobody grows like that, except for TikTok. Like the platforms have sort of established.

Speaker 1 Do you feel like, I mean, you probably talk about this all all the time, but just like, you know, even five years ago saying you're an influencer now, like now I feel so much more comfortable like saying it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I feel like,

Speaker 1 I talk about this, right? I talk about this all the time, how like the word influencer has become

Speaker 1 sort of like a hot button word. Totally.
And nobody wants to be an influencer. Now they say, like, I'm a content creator.
And it's like, well, it's only because.

Speaker 1 Like, I just won't get on board with that. Yeah.
Like, okay, yeah, there are bad influencers. Like, there are bad accountants.
Like, who gives a fuck?

Speaker 1 And I feel like everybody's just like so quick to jump on the hater influencer bandwagon when it's like a job that's dominated by women. Like they would never say that like about firefighters.

Speaker 1 They would literally never say it about firefighters. Now I know firefighters like save people's lives, so that's not a good analogy.
But you know what? Don't put it on fires. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Fashion emergency. Right.
I just like, I hate that shit. I don't consider myself an influencer.
And these days, I really consider myself a podcaster. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I try to say that. Yeah.
I just, but I don't like like the influencer hater. No, no.
You know what I mean? I used to say I'm a YouTuber because like influencers are the word. Right, right, right.

Speaker 1 Like I feel like when I came on the toast, I wonder what I said. Probably, I don't know.
YouTube or Instagram. I consider you like a true content creator because you make content on all platforms.

Speaker 1 Content creator. And today, you're co-host.
I am my official inaugural co-host moment. No, it's a great day because I do want to talk about the CMA Awards.
So, you do.

Speaker 1 Danielle Carolyn, I have a question for you. Yes.

Speaker 1 And we're really only beginning to to understand them.

Speaker 1 And that's exactly why Haya exists, to give parents a real solution in a market flooded with products that prioritize candy-like appeal over actual nutrition.

But the crazy thing is that kids actually do love them.

Speaker 1 I can tell you for a fact, I've seen my niece fly across the house when it's time to take her Haya.

Speaker 1 Like after every award show, I come on on here and I give a speech about how I'm like literally the biggest Lady Wilson fan ever, but she doesn't deserve it. Great.

Speaker 1 She doesn't deserve half the awards that she gets. And I feel like country has like a real issue with like women and not giving women like the credit they deserve.

Speaker 1 Like for so many years, it was like Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood nominated every year. They never gave it to them.

Speaker 1 So I feel like they're trying to like undo all of that by just like randomly giving it to Lady Wilson. And they sort of like refuse to give Luke Combs or Morgan Wallen an award every year.

Speaker 1 It's like literally every year, especially Morgan Wallen. And like, you could say what you want.
So don't nominate him. Like, was he there? I don't think so.
They don't show him. I know.

Speaker 1 And so, like, I think because he's problematic, they don't want to give him awards. And that's fine.
But then they really shouldn't nominate him. They shouldn't.

Speaker 1 Because like he released an album this year. He did a stadium tour.
Like, he's obviously the entertainer of the year. And I love Luke Combs, and I feel like some years are his years.
Yes.

Speaker 1 But like, it was Morgan Wallen's year. It totally was.
Like, that 20 cigarettes song. Like, right.

Speaker 1 But like,

Speaker 1 like, how viral all of his songs went. Like, it's just annoying.
So I just hate when people like aren't, aren't honest. No, and like they choose when they want to like be a good Samaritan.
Agree.

Speaker 1 Like, that's where, like, it's just, it just doesn't make sense. That's how I felt last year about Shibuzi, where it's like, they also have a problem with diversity.

Speaker 1 And so, like, here is Shibuzi, a black artist who, like, literally was the song of the year bar song so good and like going out of your way to not give a tishaboozy when it was so clear like he should have been i think it was like new artists and it's like okay well now now i'm feeling like you're racist honestly's feeling opposite of what you're trying to do so like i don't understand their thought process on so many things and i know like country artists talk all the time about how it's so political and like you have to do pioneering and that's why like laney wilson was hosting like you have so i just don't like that because it should be a meritocracy like who was the best song what was the best person no i know it was interesting i don't know what this was about laine wilson when she was expect accepting like her second award of the night, she said something like, and for all of you women eating Cheetos at home, stop pitting people against each other.

Speaker 1 Women. She said women against each other.
So I'm like, shit. Okay.
Well, maybe she's talking to us, but I don't know. No, but we're not pitting women against each other.

Speaker 1 No, we're just pitting women against the men. No, but I'm wondering if that, like, what that's about.
I mean, is it about what we're talking about?

Speaker 1 Yeah, maybe it is, but like, because there is like a lot of

Speaker 1 Everybody has something to say when she wins.

Speaker 1 And I think if any of the other people had won, like, I mean, I personally would have had nothing to say if Luke Homes won, if Chris Stapleton won, if Morgan Wallen won.

Speaker 1 I'm not like a huge Cody Johnson fan, but like... Cody Simpson, you mean? Cody Simpson.
Yeah. I'm not a huge Cody Simpson fan.
I'll never forget. I'm having literary PTSDA.
So funny.

Speaker 1 Like, but I understand the hype. Do you know what I mean? Yes.
So I guess, like, am I, am I the problem? Because I only have a problem with the woman. No, it's so funny.

Speaker 1 I literally texted Margo immediately because sweet Margo was at the CMAs. Yes, Margo.
Shout out to our sister Margo for our season. For crushing our sister.
She interviewed, she was on the red carpet.

Speaker 1 She was interviewed. She looked so cool.
Shout out to Achill. I had no idea she was like doing all those interviews.
Dude, I literally called her yesterday when she was like walking into the awards.

Speaker 1 I'm like, where are you? And what are you doing? Yeah, what? She's like, I'm at the CMAs. I told you I was going to Nashville.

Speaker 1 I'm like, you didn't tell me you were going to the CMAs hosting a red carpet. No, she didn't.
Not her making a TikTok with Jordan Davis. Jordan Davis,

Speaker 1 forgetting all these other names.

Speaker 1 Like, I was shook. Yes, that's who I was.
Dustin Lynch. It was, I was really excited for her, but I texted her immediately.
Like, she was still like in the awards. Yeah.

Speaker 1 She FaceTimed me as she's walking out. She was like, I'm so fucking pissed.
Cause I texted her, like, not like sleeping. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And again, it's like, obviously love Luke, but like, like you said, it didn't have to be Luke.

Speaker 1 No, and I'm not like, like I'm not this type of person is mad because like my artist didn't win like I can understand if Chris Stapleton had won.

Speaker 1 I can understand if Morgan Wallen had won, but like seriously, what is and it's like I hate saying it because and I know this is so repetitive and I apologize, but like she is wonderful.

Speaker 1 Like and I actually thought her performance last night was sick. I love her music.
She's amazing. Hang tight honey is one of my favorite songs.
Like she's killer.

Speaker 1 So I actually feel like giving her these types of awards like takes away from that because now it's just giving like checked box. And also she was a great host.
Like Like, can she be the host? Agreed.

Speaker 1 She was great. Loved her outfits.
The montage in the beginning where she sang with all the artists. Love.
That was incredible. But like now,

Speaker 1 now it's giving like. I think she feels it too.
Like, I would be like, fuck. You're like, please don't give it to me.
No, seriously, she must be feeling that way, right?

Speaker 1 Now, single of the year, the nominees were 4x4 by you, by, of course, Lainey Wilson. Ain't no Love in Oklahoma by Luke Hombs.
Am I Okay by Meg Maroney? I Never Lie by Zach Topp.

Speaker 1 You Look Like You Love Me by Ella Langley and Riley Green. And that was the winner.
And I agreed that absolutely should have won. It is so, it's my comfort song.
Now, I ship these two so hard.

Speaker 1 And I know that there's a very sordid past between them. Like I believe they were like hooking up when the song was being written.
Had to. And he's just like major fuckboy.

Speaker 1 And then Satchi was explaining to me that like he was spotted after his romance with Ella Langley, with Megan Maroney. Yes.
And which is just crazy because Megan Maroney and Ella were friends. I know.

Speaker 1 Which is like kind of not cool of Megan. And now he's like dating some like, you know, Instagram model.
He just is like, he's exactly what you think he's going going to do.

Speaker 1 There's like this really handsome young southern guy who gets famous.

Speaker 1 No, for sure. Like he's incredible.

Speaker 1 It was also so funny when they won like two awards last night. So I think that they hate each other.

Speaker 1 They were hugging awkwardly. Like, oh my God, it was just awesome.
And then Megan's there. Despise each other.
I also do feel like Megan is like a really kind person.

Speaker 1 So I feel like there was just like a little mix-up. Yeah, maybe, maybe it was just like a little bit of confusion.
Wait, did you know Megan went to Georgia? She was my sorority? You're kidding?

Speaker 1 What sorority were you in? Capital. And do you guys have like a hand sign? Yeah, what is it?

Speaker 1 I'm sure when you went to Georgia. Oh, is that a sign? It's K and D, but like the triangle has to connect.
Is that it? For me, I get a nerve. Like, I don't have nerves in my left thumb.

Speaker 1 I can't, like, move my left thumb. You have to be there.
Yeah, right. So just good for you.

Speaker 1 Like, seriously, I'm a toast, you know? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I love it. Well, thank you for trying.
Album of the year, Megan Maroney's Am I Okay, Cold Beer and Country Music, Zach Top, F1 Trillion by Post Malone, my album of the year.

Speaker 1 On the problem, Morgan Wallen, and then the winner, Lainey Wilson's Whirlwind. Like, seriously, just stop.
Like, it

Speaker 1 like for me, I think we all have our own albums of the year. Mine was personally F1 trillion.
I think. Do you think they should have won? No.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's fair. I'm reasonable enough to admit, like, just because it's my choice doesn't mean

Speaker 1 I'm the problem by Morgan Wallen was obviously the album of the year, but not according to these people. No, it's that one was, I didn't even know the name of her album this year.
I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 1 Song of the year, which I don't know how it's different from Record of the Year, was also You Look Like You Love Me by Riley Green.

Speaker 1 And then female vocalists of the year went to shockingly Lainey Wilson.

Speaker 1 Kelsey Ballerini, Miranda Lambert, Ella Langley, Megan Maroney, and Lainey Wilson were all the nominees. Now, in terms of that group, I actually feel like that's a good, she, yeah, pop off.

Speaker 1 I wanted Ella Langley. I'm in an Ella Langley.
Right, me too. Or Megan Morron, was Megan Maroney? Yes.
Yes.

Speaker 1 But like, I don't, I don't disagree with her winning. Do you know what I mean? Fair.
Because vocalists is just like literally their vocals.

Speaker 1 I don't understand some of these. So then you go to male vocalists of the year and it's like, okay, well there's female vocalist of the year and male vocalists of the year.

Speaker 1 And then those two winners, like, who's better? And that's the entertainer of the year, right? Yeah. It's like, so that's giving away.
So male vocalists went to Cody Johnson.

Speaker 1 The nominees were Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Chris Dapleton, Zach Top, and Morgan Wallen.

Speaker 1 Like, okay.

Speaker 1 I don't know how you don't give it to Morgan Wallen or Luke Combs. Like, sorry, they're the biggest artists in the world.
They play the same stadium sizes as Beyonce, as Ed Sheeran, as Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 Like, what are we talking about? It literally makes no sense. I like actually felt so bad for Luke because Luke goes to all the shows.
I know, and he always shows up. He's such a good sport.

Speaker 1 He does a performance. Like, seriously.

Speaker 1 She's pregnant with bangs. Like, it's disgusting.
She's pregnant with bangs. That's hard to pull off.
She posted on her story. I think maybe it was on her close friend's story.

Speaker 1 Sorry, Nico, to like be putting me out there. She was like, I'm thinking of cutting bangs for the CMAs.
And I literally responded to her and I said, don't you dare. And she was like, really?

Speaker 1 I think I'm going to do it. I'm like, oh, yikes.
Okay. Awkward.
I was so wrong. I just want to put it out there.

Speaker 1 They weren't. Okay.
I thought there was going to be like fringe bangs. Yeah, yeah, no.

Speaker 1 It was like it was side bangs, which I got side bangs when I was in the seventh grade, like right before my bot mitzvah.

Speaker 1 I can tell you,

Speaker 1 I don't think I've ever been happier in my whole life. Like.

Speaker 1 I what I thought, you know how like you think your haircut's gonna do something for you and then it doesn't? Yeah. It did exactly what I thought it was gonna do.

Speaker 1 And I was so skinny and my mom's five like the tiniest arm. What was your theme?

Speaker 1 Okay, sorry. This is like a whole lot.
It's kind of like a trauma. I've talked about it extensively on the Patreon because everybody does like

Speaker 1 kind of like similar themes. There's like kind of corny ones.
Everybody does like Broadway or Candy Bar. Margo's was Candy Bar.
That's cute.

Speaker 1 And I don't know why with My By Midsoe, like we went like more abstract. It's not something that like, it's not a theme.
Do you know what I mean? Like people do like movies, Hollywood sports.

Speaker 1 I can't explain it. Like my theme was colors, which is not a theme.
And it was like all branded, like Color Me Claudia. Oh, okay.
Color me Claudia was the theme. Yeah, but like colors.

Speaker 1 Saying colors is like random, but color me Claudia. It was like a pride event, honestly.
It was so weird. You were from day one.

Speaker 1 And I like, I felt like we had the idea like when we were doing like the planning meetings with the party planner and like somebody mentioned it and like we just ran with it and it was like and I didn't like it from the second and like I was just too afraid to say something and like it got like it just went off the rails and everybody was like loving it I was like okay I guess we're like fucking around and calling colors like what did you wear like a a colorful I wore a yellow dress.

Speaker 1 Actually it was YSL, like a sleigh. YSL? And how old are you when you? Okay, so let me tell you.
So we went to, oh, you're from Florida. Do you know Neiman Marcus' last call at Sawgrass Mall?

Speaker 1 It's literally like the most insane. You have to like rifle through racks and racks and racks, but it's like designer stuff.
Like, it's almost like kind of like a TJ Maxx.

Speaker 1 So we found this $1,500 YSL dress for $50.

Speaker 1 Okay. I would like that too.
Yeah, we still have it. Like it was iconic.
Oh, I need to keep it. And then vocal band Group of the Year, for the first time ever, Old Dominion did not win.

Speaker 1 The Red Clay Strays, they're like this new band. I never heard of them until last night.
Really? Yeah, no idea. You've heard them because people are using their sounds on like Instagram.

Speaker 1 Oh, like I used them for one recently. Like, it's really calming, good chill vibes.
Okay, I mean, I liked their performance. I had no problem with it.

Speaker 1 Although, I was really happy that Rascal Flats was nominated. And I feel like if they ever had a chance to win, it would have been this year when they did their revamped album.
They did their tour.

Speaker 1 So I was reading for them. I was wondering if they'd win just for you.

Speaker 1 You're exciting. The rest of the awards I don't really care about.
I'm all sad to say, like, I'm just, like, the country awards haven't been doing it for me recently because they're just lying.

Speaker 1 No, I know. It was better, though.
I actually went to the ACM awards, which was really, really fun, but I feel like the awards are like really heavy-hitting at the CMAs.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so, okay, compared to like pop music,

Speaker 1 which are like the Grammys, the ACMs or the CMAs? I've heard it's the CMAs, even though ACMs, please, I want to go back. I think it's the CMAs too.
I think it's the CMAs.

Speaker 1 Like, I think Margo, like, told me that. I was like, yeah, I think Margo told me that, too.
She's like, well, CMAs are like kind of like the Grammys. I forget which ones I've been to.

Speaker 1 I think I've been to both they did a carpet we've done the toast carpet which was so much fun i think that was cmas

Speaker 1 so cool and then i just went some to something in dallas which i think was the acm's acms are in dallas oh okay okay right outside of dallas yeah like a frisco frisco i was gonna say fresno yeah frisco

Speaker 1 um okay next up I wanted to talk about this with you. We talked about it last week, like Shane Mitchell launching this like skincare line for kids, and there was a lot of, you know, backlash.

Speaker 1 She went on the Today Show and Jenna Bush Hager was peppering her with like kind of, she was, she was being, it's not like an investigative show, and I feel like it's kind of soft usually you go on and like talk about like your garden um so I was shook to see her kind of hammering the point and Shea Mitchell had amazing answers and it kind of made me um change my opinion on it what I had said last week was that like you know skincare for kids while it's nice because kids are gonna use skincare might as well give them something safe i just like i don't hate shea mitchell i hate the world you know i hate that like this is what kids are into i i heard you say this and i actually i think it's fine like i i was in for it so but you've changed your mind now

Speaker 1 my, um, my thesis is I don't give a fuck. Like, there you go.
There are kids doing crack. Like, for real, put on your skincare mask.
Like, I'll survive.

Speaker 1 And hearing her talk about it, like Jana Bush was like, kind of peppering her. And Shay was just, like, very light about the whole thing.
I'm like, yeah, like, seriously, who gives a fuck? And like,

Speaker 1 no, kids are into skincare and kids always copy their parents. And I think about the.

Speaker 1 toys we had growing up we had like fake makeup palettes some of them even have like real gloss which was like vaseline or whatever but like it's always been a thing always been a thing and like this is better than makeup in my opinion and just not drunk alpha fan do you remember right that's That's exactly what I was going to say.

Speaker 1 Do you remember on TikTok, like

Speaker 1 a year or two ago, all these kids were going viral for their drunk elephant skincare?

Speaker 1 And then all these estheticians were like, the ingredients, drunk elephant, while the packaging looks like if it's for kids,

Speaker 1 it's actually really advanced, harsh things. So you know what? Like, I don't give a fuck.
No, even I don't use a lot of drunk elephant because it's like really like concentrated. Right.

Speaker 1 No, it's like, it's real ingredients. It's not just crap.
Oh, it's terrifying.

Speaker 1 To me, this feels like Claire's. I feel like if Claire's was still open, they would sell fake face masks with like panda eyes and like ears.
They would totally do that.

Speaker 1 that i don't give a fuck i'm i'm here for it i think it's the cutest thing i actually feel so bad that she was getting so much hate i know but like here we are she she crushed it on her interview although one of the points she made i didn't really agree with okay what was it i won't she was basically like that babies you know we do skincare from skincare from birds and it's true babies love massages and you are supposed to keep their skins like super like we're always lathering because maybe you are johnson and johnson like but that's like for like medicinal reasons and you don't do that forever you just do it like while they're a baby okay because i was like that's weird that no that was just like a bit of a stretch i agree with all her her points.

Speaker 1 I was like, all right, calm down. Calm down.

Speaker 1 She looks very pretty, though, honestly.

Speaker 1 She made me want to do a pony. She made me want to buy her skincare.
Her skin looked insane. There you go.
So, okay, Jenna Bush Hager. Jenna Bush Hager's making a lot of news recently.

Speaker 1 I saw the Minka Kelly. That thing was weird.
She's getting someone at, is it ABC? Yeah. Someone's telling her.
NBC win. NBC.
Sorry. They're telling her.

Speaker 1 Then I saw Minka Kelly, I think yesterday was on the Drew Barrymore show, talking exclusively about her boyfriend.

Speaker 1 That is so fucking annoying. So maybe she'll bad wait.
I just figured out who you look like. And it's a compliment.
Normally I don't like telling people. I only get told one person, so I'm curious.

Speaker 1 Grace Van Patten from Tell Me Lies. No, I'm obsessed.
You talk like her too.

Speaker 1 Who do you get told? Arianomatics. Oh, when my hair is like 1,000% Arianomatics, which is also a compliment.
No, I'll take it, but love her. Oh, Ariana Matics.
Yeah. That's, that's it.

Speaker 1 Maybe better than mine. Mine is also like, you look like her, but a lot of your mannerisms too.
Okay. I think like your tone of voice.
Like more like low. Yeah, like monotone a little bit.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
I thank you, Claudia. I'm the same way.
I like have to stop myself from telling people because they get offended. That's why I always say, who do people tell you you'd look like?

Speaker 1 That's one of my favorite questions. I do love the celebrity doppelganger game, although it's a minefield.
Who's yours? Who do people tell you? When I was in Victoria Fuller. Yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 When I'm skinny, Victoria Fuller, it depends on my weight. When I was in high school, I got told all the time that I looked like Snookie.
Oh my God. And Joey must love that.

Speaker 1 Well, I got told I looked like Snookie, because you know, when Snookie was filming...

Speaker 1 You do. I see it in the face.
When Snookie was filming Jersey Shore, she was chubby. And then like halfway through the journey, she like went on a crazy wheel lost journey and got so skinny.

Speaker 1 And when she got skinny, nobody told me I looked like Snookie anymore, which was just hurtful.

Speaker 1 And then as I grew up, I get Victoria Fuller. When I'm heavier, I get Beanie Feldstein, which I don't love.
I can't lie. I don't get any ones that like are complimentary.

Speaker 1 And I've also gotten Ricky Lake. Like, seriously, just kill me.
Not you saying heavier. I was dying at Jared Freeman's thing.
I'm heavy. I'm the problem.
Not me saying heavier.

Speaker 1 It is so true. That one cuts.
Like, that's tough. This dick story broke my heart.

Speaker 1 Chloe Kardashian told this horrible story.

Speaker 1 And I feel like when it comes to Lamar Odom and like us looking back on that relationship, I feel like he gets a very like

Speaker 1 positive retelling. We look sympathetic.
Yes, we look back on it arjeliciously, if you will. Totally.

Speaker 1 And it's like not. And things like this remind us of that.
So she had some particularly challenging moments in her marriage to Lamar Odom.

Speaker 1 And on her podcast, she shared for the first time that Lamar Odom burned all of her journals, which were memorializing years of her life, and he burned them in front of her while they were together.

Speaker 1 Odom was quote, convinced that I was taking notes and sending them to the government or something crazy.

Speaker 1 That is so sad. I don't journal, do you?

Speaker 1 No, but I know, like, you put your whole heart into it, and then it's you're doing it obviously because it feels good, but I think people really do it so that you know, 20, 30 years later, you can go back and read like what you were going through

Speaker 1 to burn someone's journal. Like, I can't think of anything

Speaker 1 more evil, honestly. And I know that at the time, he was, it says he was paranoid.
He was obviously on drugs.

Speaker 1 And like, you, you're not yourself, and you're like in this, but seriously, like, that's, and that's not something you can like break someone's jewelry and like buy them a new one. You can't.

Speaker 1 This is so evil. Like, it's literally a movie scene.
Yeah. It's like the fire

Speaker 1 flaming. When you think of like the, like, seriously, like something so mean.
No, and it, it actually, you're so right. They are giving him this like sympathetic edit.
Yeah. Sympathetic, whatever.

Speaker 1 They're both. And like, yeah, he was just on.

Speaker 1 And remember, she was like giving him his stuff back. And it was like, it's like last season, right? Yes.
They make it sweet. And I was like, oh.
And it's nice that they do that.

Speaker 1 I think they care about him. But like things like this remind me, like, it actually, like, was not.
Oh, and now she doesn't journal anymore. She said, stop.
That's so sad.

Speaker 1 She was like, I can't drill anymore because she probably thinks someone's going to burn it. It's like PTSD.
That's really upsetting. I would, also, that's just so vulnerable.

Speaker 1 Sometimes we get like deer toaster submissions about people who read their partner's journals and they find out things that they obviously didn't want to hear.

Speaker 1 And like, what do they do now that they have this information?

Speaker 1 And I just want to say, I wanted to use this story as just a platform to remind someone if you're thinking about reading someone's journal, like, don't fucking do it. No, it's their internal thoughts.

Speaker 1 It's like their intrusive thoughts. I know.
And it's like, it is crazy to like put your worst thoughts to paper. No, I would literally never.
I think if I journaled, I would like lie to my journal.

Speaker 1 No, yeah. I had a salad for lunch today and I'm feeling really good.

Speaker 1 I would lie for sure. And I think some things like

Speaker 1 belong in your brain. Do you know what I mean? 100%.
Sometimes every now and then I lie to my therapist because I'm too embarrassed. Do you? Every now and then, like a little fib.
Okay, interesting.

Speaker 1 Can you, if you don't mind sharing, but what's the last lie you told your therapist? Like,

Speaker 1 that's a good question. Do you do in-person or Zoom therapy? Um, Zoom.
But, like, it won't be, like, something to make me sound better.

Speaker 1 Like, it wouldn't be like, you know, she said, like, I'm telling her everything if there's like a situation.

Speaker 1 It's more like, I feel like there's certain things I keep out because I'm like, eh, she doesn't need to know. Okay, now let me ask you a question.

Speaker 1 When you talk to your therapist and it's something that involves, and I feel like, do you talk a lot about like your job or? Yeah, it just depends on the week.

Speaker 1 It's like, oh, it's like shitty comments.

Speaker 1 Why do you explain what you do for a living, especially when you first started therapy? No, it was definitely like scary because my last therapist was like older then she retired she lost

Speaker 1 on you

Speaker 1 but this therapist she is like younger so she kind of like knew it already which was also kind of scary for me too right did she follow you she didn't say but then like she actually did say she saw me on someone else's like she i was on her feet i was like oh oh that's so crazy i always think about that i don't do therapy and anytime i've ever thought about like starting.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Well, I would be like, well, how do I explain what I do for a living? Because most therapists, I think I would, I would seek out an older therapist.
That's more of my vibe.

Speaker 1 You would like like that. And I think like I would just be confusing to them.
I think you think that, but it is so amazing. I think they also don't care.

Speaker 1 They, they seriously love here, like you would just feel 10 pounds lighter. The thing is, I'm not anti-therapy at all.
I think it's amazing.

Speaker 1 I also think not, I think we got to a place where it was like everyone needs therapy. Even if you're in the best place ever, like therapy for everyone.
It's expensive. Let's do it.

Speaker 1 But I, I, I don't think everyone needs therapy. Oh, no.

Speaker 1 I don't think that I need therapy. No, no.
It's if you were thinking about it. Right.

Speaker 1 I think it's good. Yeah.
If you're thinking about it, you should do it. But I don't think, like, I think for a while I was like, well, if you didn't go to therapy, like, that's bad.
It's not. No.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. I don't think it's bad.

Speaker 1 If you have, you're also so close with your family and your sisters. You have that.

Speaker 1 So, what I always say is that, like, I'm not, I don't have a hard time like communicating and identifying my own feelings.

Speaker 1 And I have, like, I'm very blessed that I have like a lot of people in my life who I feel extremely comfortable like opening up like the worst parts of myself to.

Speaker 1 So I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think that I am about not needing therapy.

Speaker 1 No, I think you're in a good, it's more of like, if someone's ever thinking about it, I'm like, you should just try it. Do it.
Yeah. Like, yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, total, like literally 180, but it reminded me I wanted to talk to you about something, which reminded me. So what we're going to do, our next story is like a little bit of TikTok drama.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But we talked extensively on the toast about that whole New York influencers are boring thing. Yes.
What did you make of that as a New York influencer?

Speaker 1 Did you think that person was talking about yourself? No, not at all. Okay, I didn't think so either.
I didn't think, because like the way they describe, I was like, no, it's not about me. I was like,

Speaker 1 I think I commented something. People are like, no, it's not about you.
Like, that's right. That's right.
Well, that's what Jackie and I were saying.

Speaker 1 Like, the funniest part of that whole New York influencer thing was people being like, this is me. Like, how could you say that about me? And it's like, well, we weren't talking about it.

Speaker 1 It's not about you.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't think I ended up saying it, but I was like, if I were to comment, like, I know someone would be like, girl, it's not you. Right.
It actually made me so sad because I love those girls.

Speaker 1 Like, I love Bridget and Danielle and like Laura. Like, whoever, whoever they were.
They were talking about it.

Speaker 1 It made me sad. I understand what people are thinking.
I understand that they're like, you know, it's boring. It's not relatable to see someone wake up for Pilates and then go make a coffee.

Speaker 1 Then don't watch. Right, right.
That's my opinion because I like, I'm like, wait, but I want to watch because when Bridget wasn't posting, I was like, I miss her content. Right, right.

Speaker 1 Like, that's the type of content you choose to consume. Yeah, I feel like you felt the same, no?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I was enjoying watching like just the dumpster fire because that's just like of course when you're entertaining.

Speaker 1 I hate that.

Speaker 1 I thought that the girl who made the video like was clearly mean and jealous. So jealous.

Speaker 1 It's so funny. Like, I hate, I was just talking about this yesterday.

Speaker 1 When somebody makes a point and then you, like, attack the person who made the point, not the point that they made, it's like you don't have anything to say. So, I literally just did that.

Speaker 1 But, like, I just did think her video was really mean-spirited. Like, she gave off like jealous wenchy energy.
She wanted the views. Having said that, like, yes, I heard what she was saying.

Speaker 1 It is like the same people doing the same thing. Oh, it's so fair.
And the thing is, I follow all those girls. It's not for me.
Like, that's not, I'm brunette.

Speaker 1 And, like, I just look, like, I don't live there. Like, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 But they're nice, well-meaning girls. And it's like, well, just because you have a mean thought about like a peop.
That's it.

Speaker 1 I feel like TikTok is so every time somebody thinks they have like a crazy thought, they like make a video video on it. Sometimes I like give it a name, be like the influencer theory.

Speaker 1 Where do you think you get the worst comments? Like where are you? Oh, the most same. TikTok has an anti-Semitism problem for sure.

Speaker 1 And it's so unregulated and it's so easy to make fake accounts. Instagram takes a lot of good precautions.
Like if I block you, then they give you the feature. You can

Speaker 1 block any other accounts that this person makes. They somehow know that like this person, and so much of the hate is anonymous.
So I, Instagram is amazing like that.

Speaker 1 I agree. TikTok's so scary, but some people say they hate hate Instagram.
They think it's scary. Yeah, I think it just depends.
I think we have Instagram followers. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 We're a little bit more millennial. Well, me, sorry.
How old are you? I'm Gen Z. Technically, I'm 27.
Oh, that's amazing. But I feel closer to millennials, if that makes sense.
Do you like being 27?

Speaker 1 How do you feel about your age? I love being 27. I like it better than 26.
Interesting.

Speaker 1 I remember when I found out how old you were, I thought, like, I was like, oh, we're closer in age than I thought. How old did you think I was? Older or younger?

Speaker 1 Well, this was like a while ago, but I thought you were like 30 when we met because you're so much more. You're very sophisticated.
And so it's successful. And And I was like, very sweet.

Speaker 1 It made me excited. People tell me they think I'm old all the time.
I'm like, I try not to be offended. No, it's literally not an offended.
Like, people actually say that to me a lot, too.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 I would have thought you were like honestly 25. Oh, you thought I was younger?

Speaker 1 That's because I associate you with college. Okay, yeah.

Speaker 1 And I'm very smart to align yourself with a youthful institution. Go Zwogs.
Goatzwugs. No, and I'm definitely one of those, like, I definitely ride too hard for Georgia sometimes.

Speaker 1 I get hated about it, but I don't care. Are you wearing red today for any reason? I like how I look on camera in red.

Speaker 1 And go dogs. Yes, that's a good reason.
And go dogs because we're hopefully going to that CC championship, hopefully.

Speaker 1 Sure, sure, sure.

Speaker 1 At this stage in life, like I feel like when I was young, I could just like put on any undergarment and just like start my day. No, these days they're a little bit more thoughtful.

Speaker 1 I've got a lot going on. I don't know if I've mentioned, I'm just kind of like the president of this really important committee called the Big Titty Committee.

Speaker 1 Well, Skims is one of my committee's favorite places to shop for undergarments, whether it's undies, whether it's bras, whether it's loungewear, whether it's shapewear.

Speaker 1 I don't leave the house that much, so I don't need like so much shapewear these days. But when I was in my shapewear era, Skims Skims was everything.
So

Speaker 1 so many products from Skims that I recommend. You guys know I love their bralettes because I'm just not a person who doesn't wear a bra, but you can't be wearing like my heavy duty bra all day long.

Speaker 1 My heavy duty bra is the Skims t-shirt bra. I love it.
There are so many sizes. They make it really easy to find your size.
But when I get home, I want to take it off.

Speaker 1 I don't really want to be bra less, which is where the bralette comes in. It's the racerback bralette from the Fits Everybody Collection.
I love it so much.

Speaker 1 I love the Skims full coverage underwear, the briefs, everything I get from Skims. I love, of course, the iconic pajamas like everybody has.

Speaker 1 Let's talk our next story about TikTok drama that I chose specifically for you.

Speaker 1 Anyone who is following the Hair by Krispy drama. We have to talk about it.
Let's explain it from the beginning.

Speaker 1 So, if you guys don't know, I mean, I've known Hair by Chrissy since the Don't Be Tardy for the Party days, okay? She's like this, she's a hairdresser, but she's really like a content creator.

Speaker 1 She used to do these like big, she reminds me of Jay-Z Styles, Jesse from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, but she's based in Phoenix and she does like all this influencer hair, like insane extensions, long curls with a long, like a big barrel curling iron.

Speaker 1 She used to do the Beermans all the time.

Speaker 1 And I remember thinking it's so crazy that Ariana and Brielle would like fly from Atlanta to Arizona to get their hair done and then fly back like these girls.

Speaker 1 And then all these influencers would literally fly to get their hair done. It's crazy.
She became like a famous influencer herself. And she has this huge salon.

Speaker 1 And it's kind of this like very niche part of the internet now. But I just want to say like if you watched Bravo in the early days, like you knew Chrissy's origins.
No, that makes sense.

Speaker 1 And I feel like she invented the Mormon curls. Yes.

Speaker 1 Like that came from her. When Jesse came on, I was like, oh, she was definitely studied from the hair by Chrissy school.

Speaker 1 For sure.

Speaker 1 So then a couple of years ago, Chrissy's like always getting canceled, by the way. This is not Chrissy's first cancellation,

Speaker 1 but she is getting canceled because this girl made a testimonial video being like, I got the hair by Chrissy. And you can go to her salon.

Speaker 1 She has like a ton of other stylists, but you can go to her salon and get, you know, your hair blown out or you can pay extra to get it done by Chrissy. Oh.
It's $4,000. It's a cheap $4,000.

Speaker 1 For extensions, the whole yada. And by the way, extensions are very expensive.
I don't know how much they cost because I don't have extensions, but I do know it's in the thousands. The The thousand.

Speaker 1 The sew-in.

Speaker 1 So you're paying more,

Speaker 1 but still in the realm of what. I imagine like a hair by Chrissy, like full head costs maybe like $2,000.
Yeah. Did you see there was a price breakdown? Oh, was there?

Speaker 1 So it was like $2,900 for Chrissy service. And then it was like $50 for the conditioner.
Oh, I did see that. That's really crazy to charge for conditioner.
That's insane. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Cause you know they're probably getting like gifting from hopes. And I just want to say, I believe it was Milbond conditioner, which is, it was Milbond, which is what I use.

Speaker 1 And I was like, that made me feel good. Yeah.
Like, fuck yeah.

Speaker 1 So this grommet video being like, I got the 4K, $4,000 Hair by Chrissy experience. It was horrible.
I never saw Chrissy. She barely touched my hair.

Speaker 1 And the thing is, if you're going to make like a hate video about Chrissy, it's going to take off the internet, especially TikTok, like they hate this woman, Chrissy.

Speaker 1 They start calling her hair by Krispy because all the hair looks like fried and crispy, which unfortunately, like. I hate when somebody slays with a mean nickname.
Like, but that was the clay.

Speaker 1 It's so good, unfortunately. Now, the video has 30 million views of her.
Like, I'm telling you, people are obsessed with Hair by by chrissy

Speaker 1 and now it started this whole back and forth between chrissy chrissy's trying to prove her you know she's definitely like bouncing back like she's trying to bounce back i'm like what are we doing i'm telling you hair by chrispy is like a little cockroach you cannot she would survive nuclear war i'm telling you you think like you're gonna cancel hair by chrissy you're not she has survived worse than this and she will survive i'm telling you people love her hair no and i do have mad respect for that have you ever gotten your hair done by chrissy no but she dm'd me in 2018 because i saw her name over i was like why do i I?

Speaker 1 She's been around forever. Yes, it was probably around the time the Beermans were going to her when I was living in Georgia.
Oh, totally. You were like a Georgia.
I'm client for her.

Speaker 1 That's what Brooke said. Brooke's like, she's like perfect.
Yes. A young southern bell who needs extensions.
Yes, I was like bleached blonde, but no extensions yet. She was ready to fry my hair.

Speaker 1 She messaged me. She kept going back and forth.
I was looking at our messages. She offered to fly me out.
Oh. I didn't do it because I was like, no, I'm just like, I'm an athlete.

Speaker 1 Yeah, like, it is kind of crazy to fly to get your hair done. But I'm so glad I didn't because who knows what trajectory I would have got on.
Your life would have been so different

Speaker 1 if you had gotten extensions by Chrissy. So different.
But I was kind of like, so I'm really cool. So I want to say something that I feel is not going to be popular, but that's what

Speaker 1 we do here. While it's, you know, wrong that she paid for the Chrissy experience and got the Chrissy,

Speaker 1 didn't get Chrissy and got charged for shampoo and conditioner for sure, for sure, for sure, for sure, for sure.

Speaker 1 If you are a person who spends $4,000

Speaker 1 on like an internet hair experience and it doesn't go the way that you want?

Speaker 1 Are you?

Speaker 1 That's not shocking. Like, not that I'm saying that you deserve it all, what happened to you, but like, I don't know.
It's hard. You're not a sympathetic victim to me.
Like, if you were sort of

Speaker 1 like,

Speaker 1 we need to be smarter than that. Do you know what I mean? We all need to use the internet is hard.

Speaker 1 It's easy to get swept up in, but like, I think a little personal accountability needs to be taken here. 100%.

Speaker 1 Like, you knowingly paid $4,000 for like a hairstylist who you found on TikTok and like who does influencers and like has had many cancellations. Like, yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm sorry that that happened to you, but like what lesson have you learned here today?

Speaker 1 No, even like celebrity hairstylists, like, you know, here in the city, like I, you know, they charge like a thousand. Yep.
So I'm like, 4,000 smackaronis. Right.

Speaker 1 And now I guess, was she in Arizona or because now she has other salons, apparently. Oh, Chrissy? Yeah, apparently.

Speaker 1 Let me tell you something about Chrissy. She's a businesswoman.
Yeah. She's making merch.
Is she? Oh, yeah. She's making hair in 4K merch.
Yes, which I'm like. She's trying to like make a moment off.

Speaker 1 I agree She's trying to make like a moment off of this scandal, but you know what she probably she has experience like while these scandals are like tough to go through They ultimately do you know rising tides rise all shades as we like to say here

Speaker 1 all press is good press. We're talking about Chrissy on the toast like I think she knows that while the only way out is through and you will come out kind of bigger and better on the show.

Speaker 1 I wonder if she's like in the comments or if like it's her team that's telling her she's a lot of people who work for her.

Speaker 1 No, I mean, I understand what the girl was saying about like if there's 10 different people touching your hair, like the color is going to look different. It's not going to be matched.

Speaker 1 yeah which is crazy but i feel like i would know going into the price i have we've all been there when you're out a store and you're going to buy something you're like oh my god it's way more than i thought yes but with hair i'm like if it's four thousand they got to tell you before yeah well i mentioned you said it was 2900 2900 for the chrissy service right which is what she knowingly paid for yeah everything on top of that like the shampoo the conditioner the tax the tip everything like that oh so yeah she knew about the 2900 hopefully she knew she was gonna pay 3000 yeah minimum and she ended up paying super cheap right but she ended up paying four yeah so i'm just saying like i don't know you're not a sympathetic victim to me if you're like getting internet hair for $3,000.

Speaker 1 Yes, it ended up being four, but like, still, you were paying three. No, 100%.
I do, I need to go back and watch the video.

Speaker 1 Was she like being super negative, or was she kind of like giving her experience? No, no, no. Maybe the hate.
No, no, no, no. Oh, she was being negative.
Yeah, she was like, I have to rewatch it.

Speaker 1 Hair by Krispy. Like, oh, so, so, okay, so she was asking for it.
Because if she was just like, here's my experience. No, I actually heard the craziest video.
Do you remember?

Speaker 1 I hate to like slander like this famous, famous LA facialist. Oh, I know that video in Victoria.
I don't know. With the serum.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 You guys, you have to be really careful. She got like a permanent,

Speaker 1 like 10-degree burn on her face from a serum that a facialist, like a famous LA facialist used on her. And then the facialist was like, oh, I'll fix it for you.
So she went and micro-needled the scar.

Speaker 1 The girl has a permanent scar on her face. And charged her to fix it.
Yeah, it's right, right, right. She spent like $30,000 on this whole thing.
It's the shape of a P on her cheek. It's like white.

Speaker 1 Like, you can see it's like where she clearly put the drop. Yeah, the drop was like, oops.
That's not right. Insane.

Speaker 1 I literally canceled my facial yesterday because I was was like, I'm going on the toast and I don't want my chemicals to do. No, these little things, like you have to be really careful.

Speaker 1 No, it actually terrified me. And I've like gotten gifting from that brand before.
Like, I've seen it all. Yeah, you too.
What type of extensions do you have? Sew-in hair extensions.

Speaker 1 Do you mind discussing? Are you wearing them right now? I don't mind at all. Very open.
They're sewing extensions. They're from Covenant, Maine, and they are amazing.

Speaker 1 Like, my hair is not damaged, in my opinion. I do like a density.
They're sewn. They're sewn.
Yeah. I'm literally there every time I go.

Speaker 1 Like, you know, you're like, I'm getting my extensions bumped up. Right.
I don't do that.

Speaker 1 He takes them out every single time and puts them back in so I am there for about six seven hours and I'm sorry I don't know I don't dye my hair so I don't know if this is a terribly rude question are you a natural blonde no you're not what's your right like is your root like your real hair color yeah so it's like not as dark as yours no but it's like a light brown yeah like if I were to let it grow it's brown yeah would you ever go back to brown I I tried one time like right before college and it turned like red in the sun and I was like ooh that doesn't look good on me um I get a lot of comments you probably get comments too like telling you to do something different I'm like are you trying to sabotage me?

Speaker 1 What do you think? Should I try? I think that there is a pipeline of girls in their 20s who are blonde forever.

Speaker 1 Like you don't even know that they're not real blonde, who then like, for some reason, go brown and never go back. I feel like a great example of that is Danielle Bernstein.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 When we were young, she had platinum blonde hair. It was so, she had three strands of hair.
It was so bad for her hair. She stopped dying it.

Speaker 1 I think to like take care of it and then ended up looking so much better. Like it's like saying that she was ever blonde.

Speaker 1 I feel like even though the blonde really works I actually thought you were blonde love do you ever like take a picture of yourself and ask Chat GBT to change a color for you?

Speaker 1 No, I should okay, you know what? Actually hold on. So I have this app it could because come over here.
I'm gonna take a picture of you. Cheese.
Cheese. So cute.

Speaker 1 And then you can change the hair color and it uses AI. It's a good way to like test.
No, I because well, you know, obviously we love Hailey Bieber here. Yes.
And she did that.

Speaker 1 If anyone can make me do it, it's her. I'm just like, I feel so, like, I just haven't not been blonde in so long.
Okay, hairstyles. How do I change it? I do like it.

Speaker 1 Like I think there's a pipeline where you're like bleach blonde and then I went to like a darker root. Okay, let's go to brown.
Let's see. I'm so curious.
I'm so scared. Okay, that's like not bright.

Speaker 1 I don't have. Hold on.
I need like almost like a, like a,

Speaker 1 I don't even know what kind of brown. You know what? No.
Really? Can I see? Let me look dark. Hold on.
I'm gonna go darker. That is literally my new hairstylist.
Okay, what do you think of that?

Speaker 1 Oh, that looks nice. Is this good app? That's a good one.
I can send you the section of the app. Yeah.
This is like a chocolatey brown. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I just feel like it's kind of a rite of passage, like a canon canon event. You have to let a young girl dye her hair blonde.
And then like there comes a time where it's like, no, no, I'm brunette.

Speaker 1 Although I don't really feel that way about you. I'm so, and also like for gals on the go, like Brooke needs to be brunette.
I need to be blonde.

Speaker 1 It's so important that you have two different color hairs when you have a two female hosted podcast. I completely agree.
No, you, you literally, Halloween costumes, they do Jackson. No, no, Claudia.

Speaker 1 When people, when a tip, like a

Speaker 1 clip of us goes viral and people don't know us, they'll always be like, well, the brunette girl is wrong.

Speaker 1 Or they'll be like, I agree with the red-headed girl. Like, it's helpful.
It's important to be able to differentiate.

Speaker 1 And I fear if we had the same color hair, they'd be like, okay, well, the fat girl, like, that's what I'm afraid of. So, Jackie can never dye her hair brown.
You also, like, you are not fat.

Speaker 1 Like, no, I'm breastfeeding. I'm breastfeeding, everybody.
I just feel like I need to have a sign on my forehead that says, I just had a baby. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 I just like forget you just had a baby sometimes. You're so like chill about it.
It's so real, you guys. Like, you're just like one of the girlies.

Speaker 1 And then you like, have a child. I can't believe it.
Are you ready for a fifth and vital story, which does apply to you because it's about college football?

Speaker 1 Well, it's about a person who's college football. Oh, yes, yes, I'm ready.

Speaker 1 Lil Belichick is going viral again for his relationship with Jordan Hudson again he was spotted they're always going to like weird places together but i do believe this takes the cake because because we forget she's so young um

Speaker 1 okay

Speaker 1 she was a part of a cheer competition

Speaker 1 and her 75 year old boyfriend came to support

Speaker 1 i have so many questions so she won a national cheerleading competition in 2021 She competed for a team called Code Black, which is a competitive cheerleading team based in North Carolina.

Speaker 1 The competition occurred days after the Tar Heels played. So he was in town.
Go Tar Heel? No, I'm kidding. I'm so confused because I know she's really young, but she's not in college and she's 24.

Speaker 1 And I watched,

Speaker 1 right? I watched cheer on Netflix. So I know that there is no,

Speaker 1 like, there's no competitive cheerleading after college, which is why like so many of these, they go to like junior college and then college. They keep college.

Speaker 1 So they could perform for like six years. Totally.
But after you graduate college, there is no career for a colleague, for a cheerleading after.

Speaker 1 So how does a 24-year-old compete in cheer? Do you think she's doing that? Is it just like recreational, like

Speaker 1 a local league? Or is she in college? I need videos. Like, I was trying to find.

Speaker 1 Well, did you see her hair at the competition? Like, she has like hardcore cheer hair. It's giving, like, my mom did my hair.
Yeah, it's giving. She's wearing a bump it.
Look, like, it's huge.

Speaker 1 So crazy. And it's a really legit-looking competition.
And look, there he is, like, not a shaggy. What is he wearing? Like a shaggy shit.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I also feel so bad for the man because like Patriots riding that high like crushed it and then we gotta just there's a college football.
There's only

Speaker 1 one place to go, and I feel like kind of a lot of people from that era of like iconic patriots like went downhill.

Speaker 1 Like, sorry, Tom Brady, the roast, Giselle, having a baby with another man, and like, you're just over here being a freak getting roasted on Netflix.

Speaker 1 Like, I feel like he's kind of had a bit of a downfall. Yeah,

Speaker 1 Gronk stays killing it. I believe that.
But he stopped when he needed to. He stopped when he needed to.
I think I saw him on the Mask Singer, like, love that journey for you.

Speaker 1 Um, I feel like he's done a good job, and everybody, like, loves watching his relationship with Camille on TikTok. Like, that's actually, I don't, I don't include him in the downfall.

Speaker 1 I don't either, but it's not looking good for Bill. It's not looking good for Bill.
I just, I, I, I have, like, seriously, so many questions. Like, I need to know what they talk about.

Speaker 1 I know they were like hot mic'd that one time and, like, she's just, like, telling him what to do. And, like, so I forgot about that.
What was that, like, CBS this morning?

Speaker 1 It was some interview, and, like, or they were, like, talking about like his show. He was motivating his book.
Yeah, something about that. And she like stepped in as his publicist.

Speaker 1 I didn't realize she was 24. I thought she was like my age.
Yeah, no. And it's like, you know, she's young, but he's also really old.
So she could be 30 and it would be weird.

Speaker 1 But no, he's literally not even 25.

Speaker 1 Her frontal lobe is not fully developed. But like, I think they do, like, care about each other, whether it's platonic or romantically.

Speaker 1 I just like don't, I like, need to know, like, did she have to convince him? Like, please, babe, like, come on, cheer competition. No, I think he's like naturally supportive.

Speaker 1 That's the vibe I get, which is good then. If she's honestly, he sounds like a great boyfriend.
Yeah, he's like, and like, oh my God, that's what do you think they talk about?

Speaker 1 I like literally don't know. Like, I feel like she's like trying to be a coach.
She's like, did you watch? Yes, you did. Chad Powers.

Speaker 1 I did watch Chad Powers, although I didn't watch the finale, so I don't tell him. Yeah, you need to hold on to it because there's no more episodes.
Right. No, and it was kind of quick.

Speaker 1 How many episodes were were there? Only like six, right? I was so upset. I really enjoyed it, though.
So good. And then they filmed in Athens.
They did a Georgia game. I think, or was that the finale?

Speaker 1 The school that they play for is South Georgia University. That's a fake school, right? Yeah, it's like a fake school.
But then they went to go play Georgia. I'm like, how did they get the license?

Speaker 1 Like, I don't understand. But yes, and my friends were at that game.
It was a real game. They filmed it.

Speaker 1 Oh, I love when they do like movies and TV shows filming like the Entourage movie, like actually filming at the Golden Gloves. I love that.
Yeah, like stuff like that is so cool to me. It's just fun.

Speaker 1 It's fun. It's real.

He came right up to me. He was a student as well.

Speaker 1 He was a student as well. He was in a talk.
You're giving so much grace to Mampaton right now, like talking about college. You like need to stop telling me that because I'm gassing me up.

Speaker 1 How many years have you guys been together? Six. And you're like, why are you engaged? No, you just moved in together.

Speaker 1 We did just move in together, which, oh my God, you talking about the food processors with Ben is like me with Ryan is fucking wonder. Oh, does he make a lot of smoothies? Every morning.

Speaker 1 And like greens? What does he eat? Like bananas, strawberry, a little water. But it's so many pieces.

Speaker 1 Of course, and it's so many parts. Does he clean it well? No.
I'm cleaning it. He just like rinses it.
Rinsing? Clean it well? No, Ben doesn't even put it in the sink. He puts it next to the sink.

Speaker 1 It's like context. It's actually so offensive to women.
Like, I can't.

Speaker 1 Even though we have, I hate to say, like, we have been using the food processor a lot because we're starting to like make purees for the baby. So, like, so cute.

Speaker 1 That doesn't, like, Ben hasn't been using it personally. Oh.
Like, we've just been, I got it out of the box because I needed to puree some carrots, which is, like, so hard. You know, I'm an amazing.

Speaker 1 How's decorating your new apartment going? It's going really well. Actually,

Speaker 1 so funny. So when I was talking to Margaret, I'm like, no, you don't understand.
Daniel Carolyn's like my favorite comfort creator.

Speaker 1 And she's like, you know, you literally decorated all of our apartments because your interior designer, Sarah, did Margo. And then Margo's apartment looks so good.

Don't you feel like it's so

Speaker 1 easy? I know it's like so stupid, but there are certain things like I'll post about if you don't like it. Like, I don't care, but like my house, like my house is my safe haven.
No, that's fair.

Speaker 1 And so if I'm going to post it and you're going to be like, you should move out.

Speaker 1 I mean, even when I shared my nursery reveal, somebody was like, You, a lot of people were like, The crib is not centered on the wall and you need to move the carpet. And you know what?

Speaker 1 They were right, but like, so annoying. No, and you definitely have to be ready for that because I'll have people tell me, you need wire covers on your.
I'm like, fuck you. Like, I can't.

Speaker 1 yeah exactly i think like for a while we got to a place where every podcast had a live show and i just don't think that's necessary no and if you're not going to make it worth people's money especially our listeners i think we're a little bit older a lot of them have kids so if you like get a sitter go out it has to be worth your your your time so i appreciate that you put your whole gal on the gussie into your live show thank you yeah we tried to not do like we tried to make it like segments and different than the show like i like how you guys did the surprise song right i'm like you have to do something where it's like you don't get on the podcast like you have to absolutely yeah, but we're not we're not touring right now now.

Speaker 1 Do you and Brooke ever fight? We get asked this a lot. No, I know people who work together.
We are just so honest with each other. So one might think, no, we don't fight.
We don't fight.

Speaker 1 It's very much so like, oh, I don't agree with that. Okay, well, can we find a compromise? Right, right.
It's very like we're both in therapy. So I know both of us.
Very healthy communicators.

Speaker 1 It's very healthy communicating. Like also I have known her literally since I had braces when I was 14.
How did you guys mean?

Speaker 1 In Florida, she like, we didn't even like say where we lived at the time, but she could like tell where I was. And she was like, hey, I'm going to be in Florida.

Speaker 1 Our moms came. Stop, that's so fucking cute.
You were 14. I was 14.
I think she was 15, and we met up at the mall. It's cute now.

Speaker 1 I feel like if something happened like that happened now and you were like meeting someone on the internet, it would be like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 I feel like now, because now we know the scenario of the internet. Okay, yes.
Sorry, I think it was like, it just is so precious.

Speaker 1 And so, like, you told your mom, you were like, I'm going to meet this girl from the internet. Your mom was like, I have to come.
