Oh, I was always getting some like backdoor, my friend's sister is a redhead. Yeah, right. Some a bunch of girls like hooked it up and then I paid it forward as a redhead. Like did you give it to? You know them. Well, I don't wanna like, this is very illegal. A little bit more safe. A little bit more safe. Yes. And also. You did? Do you know who that is? She's much younger. Like the crime is getting worse and worse. She's like, I don't wanna say, but yeah. Yeah, yeah, from high school. Yeah, I was such a nice girl. Oh, that's fabulous. I feel like I feel like I'm willing to be my green here. It's like I wasn't, I didn't even know those girls about this so much younger than me. Yeah, right. I think Margot Facility did. Right. But that's what you have to do as a redhead. That's so interesting. That's interesting. Because I didn't pass it on and I was just sort of blessed. I feel like when it came time to get fake IDs in high school, oh my, everybody like hit the ground running. And for me, like, I had Olivia and she was turning 21, but she like three years older than me. Yeah. Just when I needed it, I had the most amazing fake ID, me and Olivia, like R twins. And we really looked like twins in her license photo. I never once had an issue. It was kind of that. That's why it's important to have siblings, you know? What did only children do? Are people still doing this? It's like, yeah, right? For sure. Well, there was actually like kind of a drama. So when I was in high school, I'm not gonna say the girls name, but her brother worked at the Connecticut DMV. And it was like, we had real licenses. Like it was insane. Yes. So the first batch of fake IDs that we got, like me and my friend, you should say that. I know. We had the sickest, sickest fake IDs. Then of course, mine got confiscated one time. Like I don't know how, who, what, when, where, why, how? And like it was devastating. Cause like all my friends, like we never had issues. Yeah, those socialize. Literally, I couldn't participate in activities where I was probably at my nose. Like everyone, nobody had a problem. This was not like a thing our friend group, we just had these amazing licenses. Um, and I law, like I got mine confiscated, I forget. And it really was devastating. And I remember having to wait like four or five months for Olivia to turn 21 in order for her to pass her permit on to me. And then once she did, I was able to bounce back. But like it was almost unrecoverable those four months because all my friends, like we were operating at a level, like most teenagers were not operating on. Well, also you were in college at NYU. So like in order to have a socialite, like you're going to bars and clubs, right? It wasn't like, you don't need a fake ID to get into a frat party. Like, right, it was everything to me. And also I remember on my first date with Ben, I, we went to a bar for drinks and Ben was 21, but I was not. And I was like, oh, so stressful going on a date. I wasn't stressed about like anything beyond like what if they turn away, will I die of humiliation? Like, I'm sorry, like that stress is so real. When I tell you the way it uncleanced, when like first of all, we walked into the bar, which I don't believe is any longer with us penny far thing. Um, we walked into the bar. They checked the idea at the door and then we like got a table and it was never a question again. The way I was probably the most relaxed I'd ever been. I was so much tension building up. And I'd be the real co-journer. Yes. And I remember, um, you know, and just like things come back to that. I haven't thought about me and Ben's first date and so long. But it was my first date ever. And I was like, do I pay? Like, obviously, I'm not that type of girl, but like, I don't want to be like a... Shnera. Right, being like, expecting things. So you always have to do the reach. And I remember doing the reach. And I don't even think I had a wallet in my bag. I had like no money at the time. And I was like, oh, do you want me to? And it was like, no, but like, I really appreciate like you even like asking. It's nice when people ask. And I'm like, well, you know, on all the things. But do you mean a nice on all these dates? Yeah, but all the dates that I've been on, I always offer. And I was like, yeah. That's like not a flex though. For Ben? For you. Well, let me tell you Ben has been on three dates. Like, I don't know what the hell he was talking about. Like, I... I can't remember. If I were to be dating now, I wouldn't... I would not reach. No, but you're a young girl. And like, back in the day, I was like, yeah, I'm an independent woman. Girl boss, it was the killer alert. She wasn't an independent woman. It was the girl boss generation. Yes. But not enough to actually pay, you know? No, just the flits. You want to be seen as the sort of woman who's down to pay. But now, no, you don't. Like, in high-intake, like, no, you don't. In high-intake? No, I don't. You do whatever you want. Yeah, this is like a dear reader. This is a hot button issue. But like, for me, I ain't moving. I squeed. Yeah. You going to get that? Oh, they brought the check. That's for you. Like, I'm not even mincing words. That's what I'm saying. It's like... Yeah. Like, I'm still eating. I'm beginning to eat that. You're going to pay for that. Like, I know. And actually, they brought the bell. Sorry. Can we actually get another side of fries? Another round. Bring back. Yeah. We didn't eat actually on our date. Oh, you just drank? We just drank. Yeah. And I remember, what did I get? I was like, you definitely got something like... So weird. I mean, it has hot smoke. No, like a wine spritzer. Like, trying to be mature. Because like... Now, I feel like Ben and I are very similar. Like, our similar ages. When you're in college, someone's three years older than you. So I feel like I thought out with my friends like, what we're going to win a wine. It was either a wine or like a vodka soda. Okay. That's fine. That's not weird. What was your first date? My first date. My first period. My first date. Like, at a facility. I had a facility. Did you went to like a college? Where's like... Go on to a date party. It's not a date. No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. Like in a college town. It's a crazy imagination. Like real when you are able to like use your gate card. Your campus ID, you mean? Yeah, that's what I mean. Like, if you like, anyway, you was like, you can't use your end number on a date. No, it doesn't count on a date. So, and also, Chloe was not a big dating school. So I think I went on like... I remember one date that I went on. I'm going to say I went on two just because... In the whole time. In the whole time because... And where'd you go? And where'd you go? Like the Mexican restaurant in town. Remember that place? You know how to think I'd ever been. Oh, yeah. We pretty much stayed on, we used the gate card when coaches came to town. Yeah. Some of my best memories of my whole life were visiting you at college. Yeah. I think I did it like four times once every year. Then came the last time. And that's like, I knew we were getting married because it was the best time I ever had in my whole life. And then I feel like I visited you more than... The other sisters, right? Olivia visited a good amount. And then Margot was like younger. Yeah, but I came every year. I stayed in that dorm with that girl the first year. Yeah, and your friend? Yes, of course, Rachel, of course. And then second year were you living? Second year was still in a dorm. Oh, you came to the townhouse? No, no, no, that was junior. Spring, you came, it was like an 80s party. I remember a picture of us that way they took in my dorm. You were there. Okay, in your dorm, who were you living with? I had a single in a three with Rebecca and Katie. I have no memory of this. Yeah, but I look at pictures. I remember it. You came in the spring. And then third year, you were in the townhouse? Yeah. I came in the townhouse. This was my least favorite trip. I'm just being honest with you, called. Not the one that you don't remember. No, who I remember was obviously excited about us. South Maria, I think you came Halloween like for parents weekend. And that's when you guys got caught in the snow storm. That was devastating. And then fourth, I came with the whole, the golf party. The golf party. And you also came in the spring. For graduation. No, and you came to like a random spring. It was so fun. And I said, I should have been coming every, I did a keg stand, I want to lose sweater. In hindsight, I should have been coming every fucking weekend. Like I didn't know at the time that was going to be the most fun I ever had. Yeah. So fun. So much fun. And a lot of, oh, oh, and that's where I lost my pick. I did. Yes. Oh my god. On the way back, Jackie went to Colgate, which is a five hour drive or like a 45 minute flight to Syracuse and then an hour long drive. I, fuck, I remember. I was flying home. And I was like 17. So, and we grew up in the city. We both didn't have licenses. So when you were traveling, it was kind of annoying because they would always ask you for ideas. I'm like, I actually don't own a form of identification. I wasn't bringing my passport. But we had passport cards. I didn't know I never had one. That's always what I had. So I remember being like, they're like, you know, boarding pass an idea. I'm like, here's my boarding pass. Literally don't own an idea. And in hindsight, it was like so crazy to travel with that identification. But I was a minor. So I was like, no, I don't have an idea. I'm like, young and youthful, sorry. And he was like, really? And they made it a whole thing. And it was like, I had done it a few times and nobody ever made it a big deal. But this particular trip at this particular airport, like people were being assholes. And I was like, I don't have, sorry. And they're like, okay. So I go through security and they take my purse and they're going through my wallet, which is like, there's not a bomb and they're getting out of there. And they're like, my fake ID, because it was so good. It was a Connecticut license with like a fake address and my picture. Like so it was really legit. And they were like, I thought you said you didn't have an idea. And I'm like, I got so nervous. I was like, well, let's fake. I didn't even try. And they were like, okay. They brought the female cop out. And then they also like ran other tests where I got like, you know, they touched my boobs. Like really? Like so unnecessary. I now know in hindsight they were trying to scare me and sufficiently scared. They wiped my hands. And I remember we got manicures in town. And they were like, you came back past positive for explosives. I'm like, no, I got an manicure. Like that's what it is. So they have this female cop. They're like made a whole ordeal about it. They were never actually, I don't know if it's like illegal. Like they could improve whatever, but like they were just trying to scare me. And so. But like it is illegal to be traveling with a fake ID. Like I know you only see it through the lens of like, oh no, sir, I'm just trying to drink. Like but you could also be. Right, traffic came. It's muggled like, yeah, of course. You could have been smuggled. So I was like, you know, I got to fight to catch like what's going on here. And they were like, the female cop I remember her. Like it is a crime. It's kind of they didn't call the police. Yeah, I was worried about like calling my mom and getting me in trouble. So she was like, listen, we're gonna let you go. And I'm just gonna trust that you're gonna tell your parents about this. And I said, I'm running to call them now. Thank you so much, ma'am. And I ran for my life. So even when I got my ID taken away, I was more so relieved that I didn't get arrested. So only like a month later was I really, realizing how inconvenient it was. Up until the point, I was just grateful to like, you know, not be good. Not to have stayed out of trouble. Yeah, yeah. And like, it definitely put a dent I remember like on the count the weekend, you know? Yeah, yeah. No, it's a crazy game that you play. But I guess like, yeah, people must still be doing it. I wonder what the kids do these days. I feel like you still take from an elder and you cross your fingers. Yes, shout out. Like that's why Olivia's such a real one. I don't know what Olivia did. Like so glad to no longer have that on my mind. I remember what a relief it was to turn 21. Yeah, because it's it was kind of like the thrill of it is over like it was just at that point inconvenient. Yeah. So it's just like sort of our illegal background. Yeah, we've admitted to a lot here today, all of it fictional. We made it up because we like to embellish stories for the art. For the art. We can be interesting for our listeners. This is art. We just make shit out. Yeah. That was fun. Yeah, I tripped on memory lane with my swirl. If I could buy a house on memory lane, I wouldn't have to wonder if you miss me. You know, so I go through like errors where I'm hyper fixating him. Oh, okay. And try to see that trend made it to real. We should do it when Claudius sings on the toast. Like whenever you're singing, I'm always. Jackie. What's it? I'm in my flow state. Yeah, yeah. Let's read that down. I'm always in my flow state. When you're in your flow state, you enter a flow state. So I said, oh, come on, baby. That's friends of neighbors, right? Yeah. New trailer for friends of neighbors just dropped. I saw. James Morrison. I saw Brian Peck. Like I love James Morrison. Oh, God. Why did you have to root in it? I know because it's like, it's ruined for me. I can't let you go. James Morrison wrote a letter in defense of Brian Peck when Drake Bell was in court with him. Oh, shit. And he's just like one of the names. And it's just in Congress with the James that I know. And like, Courtney Collins would never, by the way. He knew James like knew him. And I'm sure there's a lot of other context. I'll try and give a little bit of grace. But even if James like knew him to be like a good guy and he never did that to James self and like all he saw was good. Like what he was being accused of, maybe just like sit back and hear it out. Yeah. I forgot. Thank you so much for ruining that. Yeah, James Morrison. I love James Morrison. Me too. And Courtney Collins, of course. And Courtney Collins worked with children. So he should know better. Yeah. And I think James is probably like a good, I don't, I actually don't know anything about him as a person. He just has great, like, he has a great picker for roles. He's a great agent. He's like a fucking nightmare. No, no, James Morrison has a great agent, a great team around him. Yes, I know. Yeah, because like he's bigger. I know, but I feel like he's very neat. I don't know if he wants to be bigger, but it's such a great level of fame, you know? He's a great, he's a great select. He's like a great actor. He has great roles in like, what do you think is his greatest role? Of Courtney Collins stands out, but like I also love to men enchanted. The notebook. What's, yeah, enchanted. Oh, the notebook, that's so basic. Yeah, no, I was never gonna say it. I think enchanted. Courtney Collins for sure. Um, ball to the moon. What's the most sad? I don't know every afternoon when the clock strikes for. Pop, tea, pop, pop, pop, pop. Crazy, bunch of kids crashing that door, yeah. Pop, tea, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, they throw off their coats and leave the squares behind. And you should shake it, shake it, shake it, like you're losing your mind. You better come on down and meet the nicest kids in town. Ooooh. The freak call. Like when the time comes for us to redo our theme song, which we are not there yet, I love our theme song. Like if we ever, the person who wrote that's the exact, like that's my mood board. Yeah. It's just like, well, every afternoon and the clock strikes well. Hi. Hi. Hi. Oh, Jackson. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. That's my personal aesthetic. I agree. You know, what's becoming my personal aesthetic? Like my new favorite artist? I feel like you could guess it if you really think about it. Give me a second. It's not a reach. Just someone I've been like talking about a lot who I'm like really into. I love you Dean. No, Alex Warren. I saw you posted a reel about him. I'm obsessed and his music's been coming up like more on my commute. And I've been discovering new songs. And I just think he's so amazing. I completely agree. Here for the supermarket music rebrand and to just oh, good music. I think Alex Warren is making really good music. And I have no problem with it. Much like. I'm a really big fan of Alex Warren. OK. He's a new song coming out that he's been teasing that. Actually sounds like it could be the greatest song of all time. Yeah. Do you know that other song of his that I think you would like about a house? The one with Joe Jonas? Yes. No, he really said by himself and then Joe Jonas. I know it. It's a good one. It's on my like. Oh, OK. So you're familiar. Cool. And becoming more familiar. Today's episode is kind of the opposite of yesterday. Not Pulsie really. There was no TV on last night. Again, I need like the TV. Oh, we need to talk about something. The vials? No, we'll talk about them in a minute. He is no longer a part of NBC Universal. So we have been talking extensively about this new spin-off show of the OG Housewives going to the e-network and how it's a big deal. But like not really because it's still a part of the same family. I had no idea that the e-network was spun off of the NBC. Versailles, where did they go? Who owned like that so crazy? They've been a part of NBC forever. So they're not a part of like the peacock Bravo Con family. This is a really big deal that they left. And it's a really big deal that the women left. Yeah. And I'm assuming that they gave Bravo like a first right of refusal on Bravo to want the show. And they had nowhere else to go. So I love that for them. I'm so curious how this affects future Bravo Con appearances. Future Watchtrap and Zive appearances. Because it's not. They do watch what happens live. Because people from other networks do watch it on the side. But it's not this big synergy. Like, yeah, it's not this big synergy. But Lou Ann is still very much like in the Bravo. She's on an ultimate girls trip actively. Like what ultimate goal? They still do that. I think that there's one coming out. The homeraco, like sexual scandal, like did derail at temporarily. You know, they can't keep a good housewip down. Yeah. And then there's that road trip we just covered. Right. Oh, the housewives like. I think there's a New York Housewives for. I think that's what Lou Ann's on. OK. So it's just confusing. We needed to, you know, it made really a shoe a correction from that. Yeah. But no, we were not really pulsed today because there was no TV on last night. And I was just like hoping that like the people who released TV can shake up the schedule a little bit. Like three of my shows all come out on Thursdays. The pit, traders and real housewives of Beverly Hills. I've got nothing on Wednesdays and nothing on Mondays. Shake it up Chicago. You know, what if real housewives were on a Monday? That's a great way to start the week. That is. Summer House is on Tuesday. Tell me lies is on Tuesdays. It's like, it's sad. I would stagger like our recap. So like we could have watched. Tell me lies like on Wednesdays. No, I don't want to. How about that? But they really come out on Monday nights. So. Yeah, but like not everyone watches me. Like they will like I think people would understand. I can't decide. I feel like we get into errors where we like watch so much TV. We keep up with TV. We recap it like the next day. And we get like, hey, being like, well, I don't listen to watch at you. I'd rather you do pop culture stories. And then when we're like not watching stuff, being like, you call yourself a pop culture podcast and you're not watching a lot of Ireland, you know? I think like anything else, it's a balance. And at the end of the day, it's up to what Jackson turned our interest in. You know what I mean? Like we can't be watching shows that we don't enjoy. Like we'll sit here and like just be like it is. Like be heat full. So right now I'm enjoying everything that we're watching. And I think it's a value out for the show. And I'm committed to that journey. That's beautiful. But I can't say it will always be like this. No, yeah, agreed. I'm not going to watch every real housewives again. Oh, no. Don't get it twisted. Yeah. We are in our Mike TV era. OK, Mike TV. Oh, Mike TV. Mike TV. Well, you know what, there's stories. So we can get into it in the stories. So now without further, do. Do. Here are the fast-type stories that you don't do need to know. And the fast-sized stories that you don't do need to know is brought to you by skims. Any pain points you might have with underwear bras, especially as you get older, and your body starts to change. I give more requirements. You can't just be buying like any old panty off the rack. Well, before skims, underwear has always been very much a challenge for me. And now with skims, I know that there are trusted brands. Whenever I need a bra, a bra let, undies, lounge wear, I go straight to skims. They are one of my favorite brand shows at the mall and I went to the skim store. Very aesthetic experience. And I can't say enough good things about skims, but I feel like where they really nail it is the sizing. So with bras, with bra lets, I think a lot of us are walking around not knowing our true bra size. And I just feel like a couple of bra sizes is not enough. We're so different. They carry, I think, over 60 bra sizes at skims. It is really a game changer when it comes to fit and feel and comterability. I love the bra lets. The fits everybody scoop bra let, I wear all the time because I don't like wearing a bra at home, obviously, but I can't wear no bra. And I feel like this is a good middle ground. I'm also, if you like, want to walk the dog and you don't want to be out here, just, you know, bust it out. Highly recommend the fits everybody scoop bra let. Bra let's are kind of touching go. You know, you want support, but you don't want to have pain. I love that they have adjustable straps. The skims one, shop our favorite bras and underwear as it skims.com.

Bring her home. She captioned an Instagram video shared on Wednesday night. She said we want to thank all of you for the prayers for our beloved mom Nancy. We feel them and we continue to believe that she feels them too. So they believe it have faith that she is still alive. They said our mom is a kind, faithful loyal, fiercely loving woman of goodness and light. She's funny, spunky and clever. She's grandchildren that adore her and crowd around her and cuddle her with kisses. So she's begging for them too. So return her mother. Well, the point of the video was like, we know that there's been ransom notes sent and like we'll play your game, but we need to know for sure that our mom is alive. And I think often in like hostage situations, they'll take a picture with a newspaper. She's, Savannah was like we need signs of life and then sure, whatever you want. Like this is not... They're not gonna do it though, unless they know. So this video was like not so much for the public, but for her captors. And I just like, for as long as watching the video and I was like this is so crazy that we're seeing this. We're very easy seeing Savannah got three on TV. Like very morning news, perfect hair. And this was just like so raw and so emotional. And I should say people on the internet to hashtag do better. Like so much of the commentary was like, I'll just feel like this is a weird video. Like there's something they're not telling us. Like stop it, just stop. That's really crazy. I know, it's just so, like even there's no really right way to make a hostage negotiator video. Right. This is so crazy. And they also were talking about her health issues, being like she's a very fragile woman with lots of different health issues that you know day by day, needing her medication. So it was a desperate plea for some signs of life. You know, I imagine the person who took her, like it's not interested in holding onto this woman forever. They want their money. So Savannah's like great, I'll give you your money. Yeah. We need to know she's like a live and well. Yeah. Yeah. There was also some drama with another reporter. I think I didn't really get into it on TikTok, but there was a reporter on TikTok who sort of like just said that Savannah's brother and laws of person of interest. And as far as we know, he's not actively a person of interest. I'm now like starting all these theories and stuff, which if not true, it's like so not cool. And I think like a lot of people, you know, who know a lot of like journalism are saying, you know, she jumped the gun. Yeah, and like she shouldn't. Even if he's a person of interest, like once you share that, they sort of like marks that person. Right. It could be true that he is a person of interest, but that might no longer be interesting at a certain point. Like it might be clear, but still he has that mark. Mark on him. Right. Uncool if it turns out to be untrue. Yeah. So like there is drama in this tragedy. And it's just like another day. What was this on Sunday? Now it's Thursday. Like that's a long time. Yeah. For like no real updates. That's far as we know. As far as we know. I'm holding out hope. Yeah, of course. That. Yeah, someone's holding her for ransom. And there's like, there must be a good enough reason my savannah made this video that she really believes that that's what it's for. Well, I think it's because like the Bitcoin information that they sent to the news stations was a real account. Yeah. So it's not like woo woo. Yeah. There's a way out if she's alive. Right. If that person who sent the messages is the one that took her. Yeah. So we'll hopefully no more soon. Mm hmm. Our next story. Some drama with Miss McCray. Tate McCray. Oh my god, I hadn't heard about this until Jackie was telling me before the show. I'm sorry, this is hysterical. Tate McCray is responding to backlash over her appearance in Winter Olympics ad with Team USA athletes. So Tate McCray posted a video to her Instagram like in promotion of the 2026 US Olympics. Which start tomorrow? Like tomorrow's opening ceremony. Is it tomorrow? Yeah. Oh, that's exciting. OK, my weekend just like blew out open. So she is in a no suit on the slopes. And there's an owl next to her and the owl is like, whoo. And she's very untrenched. You know the owl trend? No. OK, this is my impersonation of an owl if he was from Long Island. Hell, like people keep doing that. This is my impersonation of an owl if he was related to recent judis. Who is my daughter? You know, like, I'm not doing good examples. No, I understand. OK. You've successfully explained. OK. I'm glad everyone's using their time very thoughtfully. Yes, it's one of my favorite trends. So the owl said, who? And she said, Tate McCray. And he's like, who? And she's like, I'm nobody. Nobody's girl. That is. I just want to say it was just weird. Marshall sounds so dumb. You get to the point. She said, I'm trying to get to Milan for an amazing opening ceremony in Team USA. Then it's the weekend with America's best skating for gold and Lindsey Vaughan's epic comeback. Then come back to the States for the big game. Super Bowl LX. And there's a montage of Olympic athletes. And then she says, forget it. I'll just ask someone else. It's just like this little bit of promo for the Winter Olympics. And she's getting backlash because she's from Canada. Now, an important distinction needs to be made. Is she making a commercial in support of the Olympics or in support of Team USA? So it's both. It's I think it's for the Olympics. You know, watch the Olympics on peacock. But there's only American athletes. She said she's going to support America, Lindsey Vaughan, whatever. And then people are like, but you're from Canada. Which you can move to America and be like, America proud. That's true. And be rooting for America. But she's Canada proud. But then she posted an Instagram story of her as a little girl with a Canadian flag saying, y'all know I'm Canada down. Oh, so she was getting hate at first from Canada. Like, hey, girl, you're with us. Why are you making a commercial for Team USA? So she was like, yeah, look, everyone, I'm with Canada. And then it's like, well, bitch, why do we just pay you all this money to be in our Team USA commercial? I just want to say, I think the hate is really warranted here. No, this makes no fucking sense. It's like, oh, you got in trouble for you can support America. Also, she's dating an ice hockey player who's playing for USA. Like, you can roof for USA. Also, I pretty sure she lives here. Like, it's okay to like, roof for the country that you live in. But then don't like be wishy-washy. Like, oh, no, I'm Canada. Yeah, I just feel like anyone could have been in this commercial, honestly. I don't know what the Olympics or like winter sports have anything to do with Tate McCray. So when it comes to like young hot things, they could have poached. Like, maybe if they were doing a team America one, they could have chosen someone American and like, you know, just avoided all this. Yeah, but then she also said she's going for the opening ceremony and then she's coming back for the Super Bowl. Like, is she going to be in the opening ceremony? It's in Milan. Yeah. Is she Milanese? She's Canadian. Like, French Canadian? Still not Milanese. Not Italian Canadian. Oh, wait, sorry, Milanese. Is in Italy, of course. I mean, she could still be French Canadian. And that would be irrelevant because Milan is in Italy. She's an international woman. However, and usually it's like, you know, we refer everyone, but like, I feel like with the Olympics, like we have borders. We have a border. Now, I want to Google something really quick, because I remember in the French Olympics in Paris, I had like all their famous presians and it turns out like there's actually not a lot. It was very French proud. Right. And I was like, who are these people? On a global scale. Who knows Milan might take a different approach? They might make it a more international ceremony. Who are famous Italians? No, it's usually like they, you know, it's a huge honor to have the Olympics in your town. And you pride up like local heroes. Oh, of course, Leonardo da Vinci, who could forget. I need to change to who are famous Italians. Living alive. Didilo Galanari, of course. Donatella Vesace. Oh, Andrea Bocelli. I was that's good. Do you think he'll perform? Does anyone know who's performing at the opening ceremony or is it a surprise? I think it's a surprise. Oh, main skin or monoskin. For sure they'll be there. They don't need a way. Is it Bella Rosalini? Oh, they got a lot of people. Donatella Versace. Donatella Versace has passed. No, she hasn't. Are you okay? She has. Donatella Versace. She has not passed. Are you okay? Who are you confusing her with? No. Valentino just passed away. No, I put someone previously. You know, it'll make sense. Muccia Prada. I don't think she's alive. They've got people in all categories. Main skin will 1,000% be there. Main skin goes to everything. So I imagine they'll go to this. Oh, Galileo. Galileo. Galileo Galileo. Yeah. He's a big one. I wouldn't be opposed to them throwing in some other like artists. I want the best opening ceremony, you know? I... They could be singing Italian songs. You know who's so famous Italian is going to be there. Maria Montessori of the Montessori School System. And so for our... Okay, these people are dead. Rip. I think that they've got lots to choose from. And Andrea Bocelli and Main skin. And I think also like it could be about things other than just like music. Oh, he is performing confirmed, too. Andrea Bocelli. Oh. Well, thank God for that. That's really all you need. It's like when I had my wedding in Italy. Oh, you're not on TikTok. No, it's like when Celine Dion performed in France and sort of saved the whole thing. Beyond, saved up the cheese French Canadian. That's where I got confused by the way. So Andrea, like I actually don't care what else happens. Yeah, agreed. Like everyone go home. Just leave us with Andrea. Yeah, leave Andrea to it with a little opening for Main skin. Main skin featuring Andrea. So yeah, all in all, like really not a big deal. And taking that NBC money, promoting the Winter Olympics. And it is on peacock and people watching in America on peacock are rooting for USA. No, this happens all the time. Like I feel like whenever we're watching the Olympics and they talk about how like there are Americans competing like for the Philippines, just because like that's their ancestry and they're proud of it. Or opposite. Like I feel like it actually happens a lot where like a lot of athletes train, live, everything in the US, but then go on to compete for like other countries. Right. So it's kind of it's borderless actually. Yeah, no, no. Like I feel like when we talk about that, like yeah, the people who like grew up here and like play here and learn here and then go like go back to their other countries, it's like kind of no because like if you're like proud of where you're from or sometimes some of people don't you can't make team right. They don't qualify for team USA, but they can't qualify for team Germany. Right. So it's case by case, it's a loophole, but it's then it's just a bunch of Americans competing against each other. Q.R.C. That is what the Olympics is. There's Americans everywhere. Like we're so annoying. Yeah. Yeah. Because I feel like we take it more seriously. Now China is like obsessed to and like low key Russia, even though I can't remember if they're like allowed. But for a while, like we were the only people taking it seriously and that's why we were like the most honored. And now China is like, okay, well, Chinese takes it very seriously for a while. Russia was taking it very seriously. Right. And again, are they in? They weren't in the summer, right? Or they aren't they like they don't get flagged. Right. And that happens in like tennis too. Yeah. And also they could like go compete for another country, right? Like how Americans go compete for every other country. Yeah. Anyways, like I guess it's a good way to get good athletes in there. Also, people are excited because Lindsey Vaughn is competing with the Torne ACL. Yeah. Which like is the type of toxic like athleticism we shouldn't be encouraging, but like here she has queen. Oh. Yeah. Things that hurt that. Yeah. So yeah, Tatemakers stepped in it. Like good luck stepping out of it. I just feel like she kind of needed this. Do you know what I mean? Her career feels like a little stale. Like like a very harmless scandal. Yeah. Just what she needs. No, it's just funny. I'm not mad at her. No, of course not. Not over this. No. Our next story. I'm not mad at her at all. It sounded like I'm mad at her. It did. I was like, well, what are you mad at her for? She's not bothered me in any way. I think she's a talented young lady. And I hope she is performing at the Olympics ceremony. I think you know what this is. Maybe she'll sing fast car. What's her car about a speech? Sports car. Sports car like with a Ferrari. Because Ferrari. That's beautiful synergy. Ferrari. I just want to say if Italy has like performers singing from Canada and America, like that's major loser. I'm sorry. If you have a statement of crazy singing fast car in a Ferrari, Slai. They're not going to. Why else was she talking about the opening ceremony? What else is she doing there? Well, that's true. Like why was she tapped for this? And then she said she's coming back for the Super Bowl. Like, are you performing in the Super Bowl? Yeah. I think she was more so sharing that like on NBC. On NBC. On NBC this weekend, there's a lot of sports. Yeah. Oh, and the Super Bowl this weekend. On NBC. On NBC. Yeah, Lix. No, I. Looks. Oh, sorry. Our next story, a little literary news. Gossip Girl author Cecil Von Zegasar will be penning a Blair Waldorf standalone sequel novel. So Gossip Girl fan favorite Blair Waldorf's Manhattan exploits are set to continue in the new standalone novel titled Blair from the original series author, Cecil Von Zegasar. So if you're a millennial, all these players are very familiar to you. Like maybe everyone remembers Gossip Girl of the TV show more than the books, but like we all read the books. For a minute. We all know Cecil. Those books with like phrases cut off. I would love to know where those models are now. Like their faces were everything that was all we had. Like I think one of them worked in the White House. Do you remember that? You're kidding. She was on the cover of. Yeah, I think Gossip Girl model White House. She was on cover of It Girl. OK. Hope Hicks. Yeah. And then she worked in the White House. Oh, so she's done the cover of It Girl. It Girl, but that's also Cecil. Let me see. That was when Jenny Humphrey went to boarding school. I don't think I read The It Girl ones. Oh, they were slay. I'm like, this girl's gorgeous. Hope Hicks. I'm dying. I feel like I've kind of heard of her. They went on to do great things. I'm sorry. But the faces, no, but I'm trying to cut off. I know. But I would we know who they are. Like they gave us one face. I just wonder if they know what they meant to a generation, those faceless, nameless people. I think that they do. OK. And there's always like when the show was coming. And also you would look at them and they're like, which one's Blair, which one's the real one? Yeah, of course. You would try to guess. But they were sort of like every one. They were blurry, like faceless and nameless. And then when the show was coming out, it's like, is it going to be these girls? Right. Now, a lot of people are excited about this, not because they plan on reading the book, but because of, well, will latent return, because it's a Blair book set 20 years in the future. So latent meester, like could reprise her role if this were to ever get adapted. I feel like based on what we know, Layton doesn't hate Blair, but she doesn't lean in like that. When she gets asked questions about it, she tolerates it, but she certainly doesn't like live for it. There's literally no shot in hell she would ever. I just feel like if she wouldn't, why isn't Cessli writing Serena, or like Jennifer? I don't think anybody wants Serena right now. No, but like, first of all, that's exactly what she needs. That she should be paying Cessli to write the book. You know, like I feel like you have to think. But no, it's because Epps ahead. It's because the show, which has like regained popularity with a new generation, the obsession is Blair. Everyone's takeaway is like Serena sucks. Jenny's a freak. Don't get us started on Vanessa. Of course, it rests in peace to Georgina. Right? And Blair is like the crown jewel of that show. So if there were ever going to be an interest in a new book, it was going to always be Blair. Yeah, I guess so. I will 1,000% be reading this. Does it sound like it's for all? Yeah, it's like mom drama. So Blair is giving by baby, by baby. She's in her 40s. Details about the novel are still under wraps, but it's expected to follow the former NYC social aid as she returns to the big apple to climb her way back to the top of the pretty side food chain. Where'd she go? That sounds really good. I don't know. And who am I? That's one secret I'll never tell. Yeah, so in terms of like for the book, people, I think this is like going to be so funny huge because the girls who read gossip girl are in their 30s and 40s and they're having babies. And this is the type of book that they read. What they were. We will be reading this for the redheads. When people are fantasizing now about a series, like I just want them to be careful. I don't I don't think it's going to be what you want it to be. But maybe Minka Kelly would do it. Literally. And we could just pretend like nothing happened. Although while we're maybe Michaela from Salt Lake City is available. While gossip girl is regarded as like this teen drama, if you are to watch it, it is an exercise in perfection when it comes to acting, player, Waldorf. Like the character that she was given and the character that she created, like it is a masterpiece. Minka Kelly could never, sorry. Yeah, also like she brought Blair off the page. Like the Blair in the books was like, you know, just a bit of cheesy, but like, she's so much more iconic because of Layton. Yeah. So honestly, Layton can't do it like don't make it. Don't make the show, but you make the book. Of course, of course, do make the book. Yeah. Our fourth story, are you ready for our fourth story? Should I not be? I don't think that you're ready. Okay.

Our next story, Nick Vile and Natalie Joy Vial, are pregnant. They shared yesterday that they are expecting twins. So the name on everybody's lips this week is the Vials. We were talking about them yesterday, and then I was so excited to see after the show that they announced that they are pregnant. They are expecting twins. She spoke to Inus and said, it's surreal. It's a dream come true. I can't believe I even get to say the words out loud that I'm pregnant and that I'm this far along and that I'm having twins. It's crazy to me. It feels like a fever dream. So they have a two-year-old daughter, River Rose, and the magical Lollabime. And they also have shared and been very open about the challenges they faced while trying to grow their family. They experienced three previous miscarriages, and now they're expecting two babies and they're just over the moon thrilled. I was shocked. I was shocked. I'm so happy for them. I am too. I know that they've been getting a lot of scrutiny recently and just gives me such a pit that she's been in the throes of first trimester, like nausea, while I'm assuming. No one else would, like, you don't need anxiety. No, I know. I know. I hope she's not looking at anything. Yeah. Because it's a joke. She didn't even hear. How far along is she? Because she said she's so excited to be this far along. Well, far enough along to share. Right. So I don't know when they are due, but she's out of the first trimester. Huge. Probably. I'm truly wishing her a very safe, quiet, unabentful pregnancy. Yeah. And I hope that she's just not online. And has you like, yeah, didn't even hear yesterday, even though we went back and watched it. Oh, thank you. So I found the episode. I thought it was a recent one. It was like, right after she got back from the toast, the two of them could not have been more lovely or complimentary of the show. Like I hate that. I almost fell for that clickbait clip. Like it was, she was basically saying as she got herself into trouble with her age gap, whatever, it had nothing to do with us. Nick was like, I'm so proud of my wife and making it on the toast. They're such great girls. I love those girls. They're like, par J. Nothing's going to come between us. I'm so glad I didn't take the bait. Yeah. And then I'm glad that you listen. And it's like so taken out of context. It's from literally the day after. Yeah, no, and like they were talking about it. Like it was this huge accomplishment for Natalie. They were so proud. She missed Jeremiah on Vile files, but she didn't even care. Like it was good. Yeah. Jeremiah. I know. Terrible. I was doing the days. Oh my God. Sometimes I think about like that love island saga. And we weren't doing the toast, right? You were on maternity leave. Right. I was doing it with you. But we were also in the Hamptons. Oh, and then we weren't doing the toast. But the first month of love island was with guest cohorts. Got it, okay. So like I would talk about it if the person that day had watched which Natalie had. Got it, got it, got it, okay. Yeah. And she was aligned. Okay. That was such a crazy time. Like that was a crazy time. But I'm so happy for them. Me too. It's really like a wonderful ending. Hopefully to their story. A new beginning. Are you ready for our fifth and final story? Liz Woods is also pregnant. Just kind of huge news. Oh, huge news for the Swarley. For the Toast Your Community today. It's like, yeah, I saw the chance yesterday. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, we've known. So it's like, I'm when somebody comes out of the thing. I want it to come something. So glad we could finally share. Like just somebody now. Like, yeah, I knew first. I wasn't trying to be like say like I knew first. I was just trying to say like when someone tells me something in confidence like before it's probably just get a pit that I said it out. No, it's just like I never turned the switch of we can talk about this now. Like Mass Singer, which leads into our fifth and final story. Yes. A little Mass Singer news. Another unmasking last night. Teddy Melon can. I just want to say I'm so sad for the season. Like now I need to know who everyone is. I was like trolling Reddit. Like you need to know what a Caso is. I will not know peace. And now people are saying that PugCosso is Philip Philip. Well, wouldn't that be Kismet? And I just want to say if I lost to Philip, I still believe it to be court overshreed. I don't think it's Matthew Morrison and I don't think it's Anthony Ramos. I think it's Anthony Ramos. I know and you have no proof. You just want it to be Anthony. No, like he played baseball. They made a big to do about his baseball. I think that it's court overshreed. But now I need to listen to it again. I don't think it's court overshreed. Do you think it's Philip Philip? I think more Philip Phillips than than court. I think I'll tie Philip and Anthony for number one. Actually for me and if I was sitting across from Philip Phillips and I didn't know it, like I will die, you know, I'm I am Philip Phillips and number one fan. We know and we agree. I'm gonna make this place your home. Oh, I need to listen. I recently listened to Philip Phillips debut album. It is up there with one republic. Thank you. Cold beer. Yeah, like the greats. Let me just tell you because you're not gonna remember this. Oh, gone, gone, gone. Yeah. I recently, like had a Philip Renaissance. Interesting. With that album. It's called the world from this, the world from the side of the moon. Of course home, gone, gone, gone. Coming dance. Get up, get down, get a little bit closer than we see. Like so good. There's song like dance in the title. There's not actually. There's not? Yeah. Man on the moon. Yeah. So good. We're gone, gone. No, there's not dance. Sorry. You want to read them to you and like see. Oh, actually, sorry. It's literally right here. A fool stands. Sorry. It's guess. What the fuck? You guess like the fuck out of me. So last night there was a reveal. I was watching and I was also trolling about it because they're, they pretty much figured out. I was like trying to avoid all the posts about me because like it's not a kind place. And everyone did guess this and it was kind of obvious. Yeah. So Teddy Malikam and master self as Cali. She had performed fight song, which is a battle. Battle cry for cancer patients, cancer patients and survivors. And then she also performed Jack and Diane by John Melanchamp. There were a lot of clues that she had a famous family member who sings. She had a diamond house key. Oh, real housewives. Yeah. And then last night she was sent home. She said, what did she say? She said, I'm not a singer by trade clearly. And so that part of challenging for me. So a big part of my memory has been excused since my brain surgery. So I was a little bit nervous, but I was excited to push myself out of my comfort zone and try something new. And it felt like it gave me a little bit of life. Queen. Yeah. Honestly, Queen. Now, I don't know if like because we know it's like so obvious that I was her like, I imagined it actually like the hardest job to be a judge. Yes, but I also think I would be good at it. But I don't know. No, and I feel like some people are easier to guess. Like I do feel like with housewives and her there's a lot of lore. But like athletes athletes, I think I don't really hardly at all athletes. I think there are just so many famous people. I know. And they kept a wide net. And it could be thousands of people. It's true. And I don't know thousands of people. I know my people. Yeah. And these clues like it's Anthony Ramos. And to be clear, I don't know who Anthony Ramos is. Yeah, if Anthony Ramos came up to you and said I love the toes you say thanks, sir. Have a good day. Thank you, random fan. Right. Mal fan. I saw somebody guess Anthony Ramos on X and it just really stuck with me because I thought it was a good guess based on his clues and his experience. And of course, based on gender. Based on gender. Well, that's another thing. It's like, how do we even know? I imagine there have been like times where people thought like a man was a woman and a woman was a man. Some women have very feminine, very masculine voices, singing wise. And so a lot of men have very feet like feminine. But I feel like in the packages they're like, she, whoa. I mean, I don't think they try and obscure the gender. Yeah, no, I don't think they do either. But sometimes like maybe it's confusing. Yeah. And if they have like an eye. I just want to like, you know, if I ever like performed and then the judges started guessing a man, I just want to let you know I would take my mask off in that moment and quit. Well, you were queen corgi, so you didn't have to worry about it. Yes, thank God. And like, I had a gender. And so is dressed like a man, right? Right. But how literally she was wearing a dress. That doesn't mean anything. That doesn't mean anything. A hundred percent. Men's wear for women's shirt shorts skirts. Correct. Makes you think. It would be interesting to have a non-binary costume on the show. And how they would navigate that. And like the packages, yeah, they would, what would they say? And also like they, they would give it away if the package was like, they this and they that. No, no, no, they would have to script it. So it was like, how long have they always done? Yeah. Yeah. A challenge for the mass singer. Free idea. As if it's not hard enough. Yeah, right, to guess. Now we're just like, you know, off you skating pronouns like. Yeah. So those are the best five stories. Wow. I feel good. I feel really like I feel like that was a strong, a strong performance from queen corgi. Do you ever put like pressure on yourself like kind of every day? Like we have to excel in this one thing. And you know, it's over before you know it. Like do you put any pressure on yourself to like perform well on the episode? A couple of things. That's interesting that you said that. And I was in the car on the phone with Zach and we were talking just about like something unfun. I was like, and we were like talking about it for a while and we were kind of done talking but we talked about it some more. And I was like, you know what? I got to go. I'm going to want to listen to music. I don't want to like feel tense. Yeah. Show I was like having to get into like my show mood. So that I was thinking about that. And then right before we started, our producers said have a great show. And I was like, wow, yeah, like we have to put on a show right now. And there's no guarantee of how it will go. I know. And I feel like that's kind of the harder part about doing the show pregnant. Like I remember like especially in the mornings when I was pregnant, I was like someone comfortable and like angry about like quite literally nothing. And then I'm like, Fiji, Giji, Liji. And it's like so big. Um, no, but I don't ever think that it is fake. No, it does like the toast that washes over you. It does. And I think that's how the listeners feel listening to it. But I definitely think like for us, like we come into the morning and then this show is a transformation. Where's by the end? We are ready for lunch. We are. We're beautiful swans too. We are. We are the swan. We are. We come in as like ugly ducklings internally. Always beautiful. Always. And we leave like these positive affable swans. Yeah. Who are ready? We're ready for lunch. We started the week as accidental monarchs. Matrix. Thank you. Also monarchs of a small country. We're ending the week. What did you just say? Affable. Positive affable swans. The affable swan title. I love that. It's on our rest, but maybe it's a working title. Maybe something about title, you know. The work never ends, Jackie. No, it doesn't. But anyways, I do think that it shows us. I think we had a jolly good show, all's to say. Yeah, but I do think about that sometimes. It's like, this show isn't guaranteed. Like, no, and it's like, it's kind of the mountain I have to climb every day to like slay once. One giant. One small slay for toast kind. No, no. One small slay for Koji. One giant slay for toast kind. We love you dearly. Thank you so much for listening. To the Toast and Lening. We're doing the fast-sized stories. I need to do everybody on YouTube.
