Summary

The Toast hosts discuss celebrity relationships, reality TV drama (Real Housewives of Rhode Island), a disturbing Rhode Island grandparents' rights case, and award segments for notable figures. The episode covers Taylor Swift's wedding rumors, Pete Davidson's breakup, and Spencer Pratt's LA mayoral campaign.

Insights
  • Influencers and celebrities are increasingly using strategic information control (like Taylor Swift's phone calls instead of written invitations) to manage narratives and prevent leaks
  • Reality TV franchise health can be measured by trip budgets and destinations—lower-tier franchises get local trips while golden-era shows get international travel
  • Social media rants and polarizing takes can become a creator's signature style if they receive positive reinforcement, potentially escalating to problematic behavior
  • Celebrity relationships that are heavily monetized through sponsorships and brand partnerships may face skepticism about authenticity from audiences
  • Healthcare system failures and family medical negligence can occur even with educated professionals, highlighting systemic trust and oversight issues
Trends
Celebrity couples using privacy-first strategies and controlled information release to manage public perceptionReality TV franchise budgets as indicators of network investment and show performance metricsInfluencer monetization of relationship content and brand partnerships as primary income sourcesAudience skepticism toward heavily-promoted celebrity relationships, particularly those with frequent sponsorship tie-insSocial media creators escalating controversial takes for engagement and audience reinforcementMedical misinformation and family gaslighting in healthcare decisions despite professional credentialsCelebrity wedding planning as major media event with coordinated rumor campaignsReality TV casting and lead selection based on personality and entertainment value rather than traditional dating show formats

Good morning, girlies. It's the Toast. It's Jackson Claude and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show. The Fast Five Things You Need to Know. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the Toast. They sound amazing. Welcome back to the Toast. Yeah, that's right. Mura Sukas. Oh my god. Ben's new vocals, because like, is saying motherfucker, but he says Mura Sukas. I don't know why. Where does that come from? No idea. He says it 1000 times a day. Let me tell you, it never ceases to make me giggle. And now I'm saying it Mura Sukas. Okay. Happy Friday, Mura Sukas. It's not super swirly. It's not super swirly. Well, it actually is because you're always yelling at me, and by always I mean that one time for cursing, because it's a family friendly show and people listen in the car with their kids. And so yeah, Mura Sukas. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, kids. Don't kids. Don't smoke. Stay in school. Listen to your mommy. Always and forever and give lots of hugs and kisses. Yeah. There we go. Now we can end the show. Happy, how are we going to start the show? Happy Friday. I hope everybody had a part delicious week. We're going to cap it off with a delicious show. We've got Queenie and Weenie. We've got stories on stories. I've got a little real house size of Rhode Island recap. Yeah, you have to watch it. I'm going to. I told you I'm traveling and so I'm going to watch it on the plane, even though like I'm totally going to sleep on the plane, but sure. Yeah, I'll watch it. I have every intention to like you don't. And it would have last night. What did I do last night? Coast slept. Oh, it took a long time to get those two to bed. You know what I did last night that I actually wanted to do with you one night. In the future when you're free. Oh, I would love to coast sleep with you. No, I played Mahjong online, but like you video in so you can talk with your friend. Not with strangers. Sorry. So it was like Saturday night zoom during COVID. Yes, exactly. Now the interface is like a little janky. I kept getting like cut out, but we could see and hear each other while also playing Mahjong. It was basically like we were in the same room. No, that's a lot. I think that's a lot. I loved it. No, but maybe we could play at night together whenever I see you. Oh, we could play when I see you. In person. We could play when I see you this weekend. Oh, right. You keep saying that you're traveling this week and I'm like, oh, maybe she's going to Dallas. Like, oh, you're coming to see me. I've got some shopping to do for the guest room. It's okay. I'm a simple woman. Of course. Just some, you know, linen, European linens. Yes. Just some silk sheets. Yes, of course. But don't worry. I'm sure you're all stocked up. I am. I am. I'm so excited to be hosting my first guest. Yeah. I'm excited. I haven't seen your new place. That's the weird thing is that like, you haven't asked me yet, but I know you're going to ask me for my address, which is just crazy. I asked you for your address the other day. Did I not? Don't you feel like I did? Maybe. But like, it's just weird that I've literally lived in your home. I did. I've never been to mine. I did ask for your address for a glam. Because I have to give it to you. So that's why I got it. So I have it. It's just crazy that like, you don't know. I know that inside and outside of your house, like I've slept in every room. You don't know my home at all. I don't know anything about it. Like you've never even sent a video. Really? Yeah. You don't like so weird that you don't know where I was. I also feel like that's weird. I don't like post a lot of like, I've not seen a lot of your home. That's so crazy that like, do you not think that's weird? No, it is. It's just like, I guess we've been busy, you know. Yeah, of course. And I've literally only lived in this place for less than a year. It's not like it's my real like lifelong home, but still it's so crazy. Yeah. So we'll make that right this weekend. Yeah. We've got our big live show this weekend. What else? Yeah. So it's just sort of a big weekend. Sort of. Yeah. Like, especially for me. Because you're traveling. Because I'm traveling. Yeah. Just. So low. Yeah. Which is like a big thing to do. It is like a big ordeal. Yeah. Especially when you like don't travel that much. Some people do like travel all the time. No big deal. Just a quick, quick flight. Yeah. But like, like Margo, like if I told her what I'm doing this weekend, she'd be like, Oh yeah, that's just a regular day. Right. But when you don't do it a lot, like it really is an ordeal. Like the airport. Not the airport. Ah, like, oh no. Oh no. Can I tell you a little bit about Real House on Zorn Island or no, because like it's going to spoil for you. I don't want you to influence my feelings about people. And I feel like you can give me like one more day of grace, considering I'm on week three of Copper's Bell Bird and Grace. Okay. You know, yes, yes. And if I don't, if I, if I accept the grace, I have to give it as well. If I don't make any inroads this weekend, like permission for you to talk about it on Monday. Just take off your headphones so I can say a few things. Oh, okay. Great. I need to drink my coffee. So I just want to say, like, I was very confused in the beginning because all the ladies look alike and the ones that don't look alike. It's easier to sort of have opinions on them. So Kelsey was like my favorite mostly because she was so pretty. And now with the perspective of hindsight, and by the way, I got up to the episode where they're at the polo, which is so crazy. This Brian thing, him coming back without his ring. It's, it's literally historic. I've never seen anything so crazy happen on reality TV my entire life. And like Rula, like you just want to smack her. Like she's so silly. Back to Kelsey. She was like one of my early favorites because like she was really open about the fact that she had this weird lifestyle and she was so pretty. But I realized that it was just like the pretty privilege talking. She's literally the worst. And now of course, like things are coming out that her, like I haven't been together for like over a year. He just let her use the house to film. She's like launching her career, like the whole Rosie Instagram thing. I was like, okay, you've officially lost me. Now she's like really coming hard for Rosie. And I didn't even like Rosie because she is annoying. But I feel bad for her. Like Kelsey's like kind of obsessed with Rosie. Everyone like also lives for Alicia. And I'm sorry, I kind of don't. Rosie kind of ate her up at the bonfire. I lived for it. I don't like die for Alicia. And everybody does act weird around Liz. Like Liz is the richest. This is obviously like the grand dom, if you will. And so everybody like acting weird around her, walking on eggshells. I hate that. And Alicia is kind of a big loser. I just want to say, but I love Liz. Who are the others? Okay, I feel like that's good. I have to get Jackie's attention. Like, hi Jackie. Yes, miss. Hi. Yeah. Yeah. Join us. Oh, wait, wait. Put it back. Sorry. I can't believe I forgot to talk about my queen, Jo Ellen. Like I literally died for her. And I'm sorry. Nobody wants to be that person, but shows like this require people like Jo Ellen, like the bone carriers, the people who bring to the table what's actually going on. And so I actually think she's doing it in the nicest way possible. I don't know why everybody's like, Jo Ellen's mean, Jo Ellen's mean. She even says that about herself. She's like, oh, I'm so mean. She's really not like, sorry, she's just doing what needs to be done. She's my queen. I fucking love Jo Ellen. Go. We're good. Okay. There we go. Okay. There we go. So yeah, that said on that, I'm still not even, I don't know how many episodes there are, but I believe I'm like episode six. Ben's loving it. Oh, good. Good. While I was on my phone, Sam sent a picture from like when we took that trip to Nashville. I guess that was like four years ago today. Five years ago. Did I get the picture? Five. Is that five years ago? Oh my God. We're so cute. We're literally so cute. We took a girl's trip to Nashville and like almost like a bachelor party, but oh, and also with Lauren Elizabeth and her friend. Lauren Elizabeth and her Chicago friends. What was the event? Just like a trip. It's just a trip. I don't think we go for like a concert or anything. No, no. It was just a girl's trip that just kept getting bigger and we had so much fun. We should do that again. Yeah, we should. You know where I was thinking I want to go, you know where I want to go, like where I'm having like a itch to travel. Canyon Ranch. No, of course. No, always. And I think I've said this before recently, but it came up again. So you saw something on my feed. Charleston. Oh, sure. Yeah, we should go and like Shannon's there a lot. Speaking of Charleston, I texted Craig Hanover yesterday. It was a video of his that made me want to go a video of the food at his restaurant. By the way, Charleston. Yeah, I texted him. You should date Kelsey Ballerini and he quite literally left me on red, which makes me think like he always answers my texts. We talk all the time. Like it's not weird that I texted him and the fact that like Craig would never leave me on red. So I feel like it makes me think like maybe there's something going on. Yeah. And he can't put it in a writing. And I'm sure it was like kind of a complicated day for him because like he did see the pictures of her with her ex and it's like, of course, the sort of thing that got him in his feelings and he was ready to be done. But she was like, no, it's not what you think. Like it was more of like a closure walk. Absolutely. And that's why he didn't answer me. He was like so busy and obviously distressed. Because he's like sorting out his feelings because he's like, am I still dating Kelsey Ballerini? I don't know. Should I believe her that it was a closure walk? Right. Maybe I hit the like, what's it? What are you? What's the phrase? Did I? No, no, not hit the nail on the head. Did I? Rep salt in the womb. Pinch a nerve. Did I touch it? Touch a nerve? Hit a nerve. Hit a nerve. Did I hit? Oh, speak of nerves. Okay, we've got to tell everyone my mobility issue update. As predicted, I went to the hand doctor and they were like, yeah, you need an EMG. I'm like, yeah, I know I'm here for the EMG. So now I have to go to another doctor in like two weeks. But basically it's kind of a big deal. So the tendon in my thumb is intact, but it's not moving. You know, when you move your thumb, but it's not filming like literally move your thumb up and down. You see that like vein thing that pops out. That's your tendon. Mine doesn't move. So the nerve is restricting it. Show me how much you can move your thumb. Okay. This is my good thumb. Not your good one. Your other one. Pick it up higher. I can't. You really can't. I really can't. And now he did like a test on all my fingers. My index finger is like starting to give out to compromised. Yeah. Like, like he did this test where like he's like, fight me back, fight me back. And I literally couldn't. You see, I can't, but you can fight back all the other fingers. So basically what he said is that like something is compressing on my nerves. Like, because the tendon is intact, but the nerve is not sending the signal. He said it could be like a mass or something like that's pushing on the nerve. Yeah. And he was like, it could be in your elbow. It could be in your shoulder. So an EMG will tell you like where the blockage is coming from. And wherever the blockage is coming from, like I'm most likely have to get surgery. It's really a big deal. It is a big deal. I've been talking to people about this like so whatever. He said, I'm gonna left them. He said, first of all, it could continue to like take other fingers and the likelihood that I get movement back is like zero. Without doing something. No, no, even with surgery. It's just so that it won't get worse. Like this is so crazy. I literally am like disabled. And I don't even talk about like, I first of all, I need a placard. Like I need a placard for the car. I never even talk about it. Like I'm such a soldier. Like I'm so strong. It's a really crazy situation. It is a crazy situation. I'm sorry that I didn't understand the severity until now. And I told you I dropped Levi. Like it's only a matter of time before something worse happens. Okay. So go get your EMG. I know. And it's like, I hate to abuse my platform, but can somebody like just get me in for an EMG? I have to wait till like June 10th. Are you serious? Like, just EMG me. Like I have a prescription for it. Just give me an EMG. Like it's really annoying. Like that I like the healthcare system is so broken. It's three appointments that I still haven't had an EMG. Like just give me the fucking test. Everybody agrees that this is the test. Well, the healthcare system is really broken. I know. I've been watching so much of the pit. Like I actually haven't finished. It's really so annoying. It's really crazy. But also just like book June 10th. It would be here before you know it. And like so often I'm like, oh, I don't want to do that. It's so far away. And then it's like, oh, I didn't book it because it was far away and I didn't do anything in between. And now I don't even have that. Of course. Of course. No, I have the date, but it's like if somebody like in a high place with an EMG machine can just like help me out. If someone has an at home EMG machine. Yeah. Like a lot of influencers like when I go to Paris, like I just want an EMG. Okay. I'm abusing my platform. I'll do like a sponsored pose. Like let's go. This is twice this week that you're abusing your platform. Oh, what was the first? Nicaray Tarta. The hotel. Yeah. I didn't feel like I abused my platform actually at all. Notary Cards. I was speaking my truth. You didn't abuse your platform. You used it though, which like we don't really. No, I didn't. I didn't use my platform. You used your platform to get the. I just told the story. No, no, no, but then we like name them. Thankfully, thankfully they gave me a refund. No, I'm glad that you did. But like, you know, that's you used your platform to get the refund. Yeah. I just was reading about this case in Rhode Island about grandparents. Right. Do you know the story? No. Such a crazy story. Okay. So this guy in Rhode Island was suing his like former in-laws basically him and his wife, beautiful young girl. She gets breast cancer. She goes into remission. They live a healthy, happy life. They get married. They have a baby via surrogate, beautiful little daughter named Layla. Then all of a sudden the wife starts not feeling so good again. Her parents are both doctors. So her parents are like, you're fine. You're going through pro-zac withdrawal. Like they're like gaslighting her. They're like, you're fine. You're fine. You're fine. She then consults like secretly another doctor. She feels bad going against her parents back. She talks to her friend's dad who's also a doctor and he's like, you need to go to the emergency room immediately. She goes to the emergency room. She has emergency brain surgery. She had a four centimeter brain tumor. She gets out of surgery and a coma. She dies 11 days later. Terrible. Terrible story. Now the husband says during the 11 days, the day actually that she died, he comes into the hospital room and her parents have Layla on the floor, pinned to the ground, giving her a shot of prednisone. She dies that day. The daughter? No. Oh, sorry. Did I say Layla? Yeah. Sorry. I'm getting the name confused. The woman. Sorry. The woman. Okay. The mom. The whole story is about the mom. Sorry. But it's grand parents, right? Wait. Hold on. Hold on. Okay. So, so before she passed away in the coma. Yeah. She's in a coma and the day she dies, the husband says that he walked into the room and they have the wife pinned to the ground. Shouldn't you pray? Why do they have to pin her to the ground? I don't know. She's in a coma. I have no idea. Like she would just be like in the bed. Right. They did say that they were on the ground and she dies that day. What's prednisone? I don't know. A steroid. Okay. Steroid. Yeah. Steroid. Yeah. I'm taking it. Um, so she passes away and the husband just like, he says, you know what? I don't want you guys seeing the daughter anymore. So they start suing the husband for grand parents rights, which is not a thing by the at first the judge allows them supervised visits. But then like some things happen and the husband's like, you know what? Never mind. Like he literally refuses. Like you can't be with the daughter with the daughter. Then they release this recording. Yeah. Yeah. He wins by the way. These people are like the most weird and they shut down their medical practice the day she died. The whole thing is really fucking weird. But I was just like, grandparents rights. You know. Oh, so what's the point? He won. Good. And so we did like this big special with ABC. Grandparents don't have rights. No, they never did. They don't have custodial rights. Like those are, are earned. Not given. Yeah. No, no, they're not like inherent. Like a parent has rights no matter what you do. How terrible. Grandparents like, sorry, you actually don't have rights. It's a crazy story. Yeah. Setting legal precedent as well. That is crazy. Yeah. I hadn't heard about it. Yeah. It sounds like the, the, the medical stuff is crazier than the grandparents. I know. And so they, and so like you're so crazy. That's like when you dump like a criminal dear toasters on me and then you're like, I know. Sorry. Sorry. So what's next? But that's literally like the essence of the internet. You just like scroll and you read this insanely dark, disgusting story. And then it's like, come get ready with me to go to the Kentucky Derby. Yeah. No, it's a lot. It's a lot to process. I know. I know. I know. And they were never held criminally negligible. Negligible. And he was like, oh, I didn't know I couldn't administer this prednisone shot. I'm her registered pediatrician because like he's her dad. The whole thing was really weird. Okay. Yeah. Drama. Lots of drama in Rhode Island. Yeah. Oh, you know, I haven't gotten there yet, but they're taking the first cast trip and they're going to one of the Rhode Island, like Newport Mansions. Oh, local. Yeah, local. It's a stay trip. It's like a stay trip. It's a stay trip. It's a field trip. It's a low budget. You know, as a first season franchise, like you have to earn the rights to an international trip for sure. But you could go like you could leave your state. Yeah. You can always tell how well a franchise is doing based on the budget of their trips. Like when the OC was in like really dark time, they were going to like the Florida Keys. I heard that like real houses of New York this season can't even afford a trip. Like seriously, I think they're going to the Catskills. So I think it's always reflective of like how well a show is performing based on where they go. Miami also went to the Florida Keys, but that's their like local trip. You know, they always do. They always do too. They do like a close to home one and then a larger trip. So right now we're on the close to home trip in Newport, which is Newport. And I don't know if they get a second trip, but if you ever want to know like, you know, the health of a franchise, check out their trips. Yeah. The OC Housewives when they're in their golden years, they went to Dublin, you know, those were the golden years. Kelly Dodd golden years in Dublin. This isn't my plate. Yeah. But Beverly Hills will always get some Brooks cancer. I think Beverly Hills will always get great trips even though, even if they're because they'll pay for them themselves. And like, okay, so we won't do your show. So we won't do your stupid show. No, of course. But also a lot of the times like it's a friend's castle or Sutton's plane. And remember when Erica took everyone on her plane? So a lot of the times it actually has nothing to even do with the production. And like the ladies themselves. Merced and burst Jennifer Tilly. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Do you want to get into stories? They're like, they're like odd, odd stories, I would say random. Couple of oddities. Yeah, there are a couple of oddities. I love that. But I think we could get into it. Yeah. Oh, and you know what? Today's leading sponsor is kind of perfect for a conversation we were just having. About grandparents rights. Close. About how you want to go to Charleston. Oh. Today's episode is brought to you by Visit Myrtle Beach. Woohoo. I already went to Myrtle Beach.

You're welcome, Druto. Our first story, more rumors about the Lurdvis wedding. Yes. Now reports are that Taylor Swift is inviting her guests in an unusual way. Swarthes are saying that she's calling people directly and inviting them to her wedding. Which does sound like something like someone dramatic as hell would do, which is so Taylor. But also, you know, there's no paper trail, a picture of the invitation can't get leaked. Yeah, but yeah. I know I imagine she was like calling people especially to give them like date and place, like almost like as a save the date. But to forego an invitation completely, like that's part of the wedding magic. I actually know, I think it's quite smart. Remember when Ramona Singer posted a picture of Teresa Judeis' invitation? So it's like literally all of the information to what, when, where, why, how on one, it's too much. Yeah, people have like assistance and stylus and like so many people in your space. Yeah. So apparently she's reportedly calling her friends to personally invite them to her in Travis's upcoming summer wedding. She's keeping details tight under wraps. The fact that she called is even getting leaked. Yeah. Some calls she's making while her team is handling others and the guests are being asked to keep their summer schedules flexible. Imagine getting like your friend gets a call from Taylor and you get a call from her team. Remember, there is a hierarchy. Yeah, but like you just better be counting your lucky stars you were invited. No, of course. And I guess it's like what you used to call like Travis's cousins. No, Travis can do that or Donna or Ed. No, like I'm sure. She says that like she's being pretty willy nilly with the invitations. Like it's not super. I wonder what the policy on plus ones is. No, no brain. I think they're pulling out so many different conflicting reports and I think that's a good strategy. We're having a big wedding. I have a small wedding. We're having Rhode Island. We're having the European like nobody knows. Yeah, I agree. I now think that everything we've heard is like a lie and the idea that they are intentionally putting out rumors is really smart. Yeah. Because no one will know where to look even if it's even if the date is right. It's like we're looking in Alaska. We're looking in New York. We're looking in that show. Meanwhile, they're in Japan, you know, and I want to say I don't think the date is right. Right. And I think that if it's not that July 4th weekend, it will be before because if everybody has eyes on July 4th, then we'll miss it. Yeah. Yeah. Like, you know, so I think I think they're doing the right thing not to like, sorry, I didn't mean to like spoil it. Blow up your spot. But you could still pull it off without a hitch because everyone thought it was like June 13th or whatever. Right. And given her weird numerology habits, you could actually probably predict her date. So perhaps she's like, you know, foregoing the numerology just for privacy. But I also think like you can make meaning out of a lot of different numbers. They have a lot of numbers. Carry the one. 89, 13, the date of their first date. Also, when did she perform at Arrowhead in July? July. July. So I think we're not going to know. I hope that I hope they get away with whatever they're trying to get away with. And all I asked for are like a couple of pictures and videos. Lady Wilson also just got married. Celebrity wedding. I don't know if you saw it was very elegant. Like it was a vogue wedding, but you don't really expect just from like, she's very down home country gal. But it was like, you know, the Southern aesthetic people have like cowboy hats at their wedding. This is like the new inspo. It was really beautiful. Yeah. I mean, she like never takes off a cowboy hat. So it's actually like funny to see her without one. Yes. She walks a walk and she talks to her. She actually has like a functioning farm. Yeah. It was very beautiful. And her man is hot. Like he's just his random X NFL player, like, you know, Colton Underwood energy. I think he played for like 30 seconds, you know, good. Yeah. I love that. I love that. I remember when they got engaged. We titled the episode four by four by you forever. We so cute. I think we were probably predicting her hashtag, right? Maybe, but we just like kept saying it for by four by you. That's her worst song. Forever. Forever. That's what we kept saying. Maybe it wasn't her hashtag, but like maybe it was referenced in a vow or something. And I just want to say congratulations on getting engaged and getting married. Huge feet for a. Celebrity. Huge feet because either they never get married or they just like break up. It's so rare that they get married. Yeah. Getting engaged as a celebrity is like a means to get press and attention and also like a new piece of jewelry. It does not. It almost never equals wedding. A wedding. Yeah. So you're right. Making it to that next step is quite beautiful. Yeah. So congratulations on that. Yeah. Yeah. Like Taylor and Travis, they still have to get married. Right. And I do believe I have faith that they will. Taylor didn't come this far just to come this far. And that she wants to get married. Oh, absolutely. I know like the financials and I would literally love to know like their lawyers are working. It's not even a question. Like they're having the most airtight pre-nup because she's like so business, but she's also so romantic and so just like she's literally a 12 year old like at heart. Like all she wants to do is like get married to her knight in shining armor. And it's actually happening. So yeah, I do. I do think they'll make it past the finish line. But I also think for the two of them, like the cleanup is very simple. Yeah. Like we are completely separate entities now and forever. Yeah. And I guess it's like if we buy a house together, um, how do you that's marital? Like that'll be shared. Even if they didn't put in the same. Yeah. I think that I think like at that point, it's like, okay, it's like a couple million dollars. Like you have a billion. It's if you wind up like and it's like he has a lot of earning, he has a lot of money. He has a lot of earning potential. I feel like I know, but you think like, oh, when you're so rich, it doesn't matter. But like nobody cares about their money more than rich people. No, I know, but it's like, so what if you really want to keep everything separate? It's like whoever paid the percent of the money for the house. I think you seriously have to do it that way. But it just makes it hard because like you can have all these rules, but the law dictates it. So it's like, it's actually really depends also where they get married because it's like, yeah, we can have this prenup. But the law says that a marital home is marital property. So it's like, we don't really care what your paperwork says. Yeah. So I don't know. The law complicates. Or maybe they just, okay, so don't buy a house then. If you guys can't figure it out, just say the houses that you have. Yeah. That's what I mean. It's like, but you're building a life. So it's like, you can't hold yourself back because it's like, oh, well, what if one day he gets half of this house that I paid 60% for? But yes, being a married wife is like an eye. Based on my sort of like years long knowledge of Taylor Swift is her number one desire. And I do think it was a leading factor of her breakup with Joe Alwyn. It's also so crazy how different her life is like with Joe and Travis, of course, like we shouldn't compare, but like what a misery. Like it's like, she loves going out. She loves being paparazzi. Like those pictures we see of her walking from the car to the restaurant in New York City. If you ever watch a video of it, she's so walking so slow. She's turning to the right. She loves those pictures. Like she loves being seen. And it's like, we never saw her. And let alone with him. Yeah. No, it was like a self-imposed prison sentence. We literally have that one clip of the reputation DVD, like where she runs from the stage and like he's wearing a hat and we only see him from the back. Like, why was so drama? Yeah. Like he's really like life is meant to be fun. Oh my God. I know. She must be having so much fun. Like literally, fresh out the slammer. Fresh out the slammer. Are you ready for our next story? Actually, the rest of our stories are some relationship news. First, okay. And our first one was too. Love is in the air. Love is in the air. Actually, it's a whole range. First, Dylan Sprouse, Barbara Palvin are expecting their first baby together. They debuted her bump at the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday looking part delicious. I'm sorry. I'm really working on not interrupting you during the story. It's like, I know it's one of my biggest pet peeves and like, I'm sorry. So are you done looking part delicious period? Things that mean a lot to me. This I'm obsessed with these two. First of all, I don't know if I've ever seen a more beautiful, like, bit pregnant person. This dress is perfect. The color blue. Do you think she's having a boy? Probably right based on the color. The color is so gender reveal. You think so. I don't know. The carpet here is blue. That's just a beautiful color. I'm not so like. It's so beautiful. And it's very like baby. Baby doll. Yeah. Yeah. The silhouette, the cap sleeve, like she looks radiant. Now, of course, makes a little bit more sense why he was, you know, so quick to defend his home when that intruder. And he brought up the big guy. He grabbed the gun. Like there's a baby on board, of course, three souls in the house. Everything's making sense now. I just love them. Like I really do. And of course you can't talk about Barbara Palvin without talking about the time she was the plus size model at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Like I will never stop talking about that when she was like a size four. Even though she was like the midsize. And that's confirmed true that she was plus size. Well, she was considered like, you know, no, she was considered midsize. How do you know that? That's how they considered her. Because it was like it was said. You guys know what I'm talking about. Like, no, I don't. But you won't you say it enough that I that I'm like, and I know what you're talking about because you tell me about it. I fucking love her. I don't know how they like make their living because I don't believe he works. I worry a lot about like how they're going to pay for their kid's tuition. She's like a successful model, but I don't see her doing a lot. Yeah, no. And it's like she's a successful model, but that only pays like so much. And then you have to keep doing that over and over again. And like, what does he do? He has a beer company, I think. Oh, OK. He has eight million followers. So I do monetize eight million followers. OK, well, he doesn't because he has nine photos on his Instagram. One of them is the pregnancy announcement and the other eight are like a cartoon sketch. And what about the beer company? I don't know. It's not even in his. But they're so famous. Their announcement, which was a collab post between the two of them has four million likes. Oh, my gosh. Like they're very well known. But like how do they have to get to work? Let me look at her. I'm sure she's like holding it down with her. She's a Ford model. She does like they go to every event. But like, no, but those don't pay. Those things don't pay. I think that they both are like big brand ambassadors for like international fashion brands. And what is he? It seems like she's the only one working because what is he an ambassador for? She has like photos. I think they do stuff together, like not modeling campaigns, but like they're definitely like what? Like, you know, Hugo Boss ambassadors. Yeah. Does that stuff pay a lot? I think it like, you know, if you get a bunch of them. Here they are with Express. Oh, hashtag Express partner. Okay. Good. But on her Instagram. Yeah. Oh, hashtag Walmart partner. Okay. Good. A Walmart partner. You got to do both. You got to do high end and mass. Her new bio therm campaign is here. Wait, everything. Almost everything is an ad. She. Yes. She is a very successful influencer and model. How like what does he do creed fragrance ad? Maybe his company is called all wise metery. Meterie. Oh, wow. She works really hard. So it's like, hopefully he is like investments. Maybe he'll be a sad. Maybe he'll be a stay at home dad. Yeah. Well, regardless, I don't want to worry them about their finances right now. And such a nice occasion. No, of course, of course, of course. And really absolutely a sleigh of an announcement. Yeah. We just showed up at can film festival pregnant and positive picture on Instagram. Beautiful. Like insane. Yeah. This is so fucking classic. Yeah. Very, very. By the way, have you heard that there's like a Met Gala curse? No. Tell me all about it. So apparently Kylie and Timothy did not walk the carpet together because there's like a Met Gala couple's curse that people that's going around. I kind of feel that because it's sort of what we were saying that the Met Gala feels like a time capsule of the year. So now when we look back on pictures, like it's crazy that Jessica Simpson went with John Merer, but it's reflective of the year. Whereas like if you're trying to be time one, you can't go to the Met Gala. Yeah. Where did you hear that? I don't know. I was, I had it in the stories a couple of days ago, but then it was just like a rumor that that's why the, and also, you know, the Knicks are in the playoffs, but, you know, like Kim went with Pete. Kylie did go with Travis. And there's just like this. But is it just for the Kardashians or? I don't know. I do feel like though, if you go to the Met Gala with someone like, yeah, you're probably not getting married. I don't know why. Because it's like date night. Yeah. So I don't know. Cause it's like date night. Yeah. But also, but maybe it's like dig deep here. If you're going to the Met Gala with someone who's also invited to the Met Gala on their own, maybe you shouldn't be together. Why? Just like too big start, like just not the right fit. Yeah. Yeah. Except for Kylie and Timothy. Of course. But yeah, I thought that was interesting. These two used to go to the Met Gala together. Oh, it's funny. They didn't give this moment to the Met Gala. Good. Good. Maybe they don't want to curse. Yeah. They're so, they're so mech, Ella, because they're so art. They're so mech, Ella. I don't know. Like we, like we can't even describe what they do for a living because they're just like doing art. Yeah. Yeah. You know who it reminds me of? Olivia Valermo and her husband. Johann Schubert. Who do art and modeling and faces of. For sure. But I definitely have questions about how they pay their bills. Like, because they're not operating at the level that like Barbara Palvin is. No, but like, but she's been doing it for years where she's just like face up, hashtag partner, hashtag ad. It's insane that she's like from the reality show. Yeah. Like I'm sure she like worked her way up in the fashion world, but the reason why the world knows her is because of that one season wonder, the city. Yeah. But like the reason why we remembered her wasn't because of the show. Like plenty of people. She was that girl. She was memorable. She was that girl. But yeah, the two of them, they just like show up places, get their photo taken and pay the bills. Yeah. They're at like every like artsy fashion event. Yeah. Yeah. So that's, that's familiar. Yeah. Our next story. I know this is going to be like really hard news for some people. Jason Biggs and his wife, Jenny Mullen have split after 18 years of marriage. This is not hard for me, but like it's hard for me to compute like seriously why. Why split? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, I feel like they're one of those couples that like people are questioning the definition of love today if they were your couple. Yeah. They're just like so, I guess when you pass a certain length of time in a Hollywood relationship, like you're forever, you know, I think of them as like, like a Blake and Orion before, you know, all the hate or like a Chrissy and John. Emily and John. Emily and John. Like just an institution. Obviously on like a smaller level because they're not as famous as everybody else, but like so weird. Yeah. But I guess you could say that about like any marriage. Like if you get to 18 years, Of course, of course. If you get to 18 years, so you just like cruise into the sunset. Yeah. You enjoy the golden years. And I think like the comparison is because they share a lot and like they're so relatable. Like, you know, like Instagram, like Ryan Reynolds, like cutting his wife out. So it's just like, this is, this is shocking. Like talk about people I never thought of. Like, yeah, no, but I do feel like people feel like they know them because they're very like Instagram and relatable and they share a lot of like the ins and outs and like the good and the bad, you know. Yeah. But now they're calling it quits. They say they're on great terms. They remain focused on their sons who are eight and 12. Crazy. Page six said they've been hearing rumblings of a split for at least nine months. Oh, I haven't heard a single rumble. No, me neither. But like, I wasn't listening. That's what I'm saying. Like I wasn't even, I never thought to think of these. I didn't have my ear to the ground. Oh, I did, but not about them. No, about, I did not have my ear to the ground about them. I never think of them. I didn't see American pie. Pie. He's a little before our time. I wouldn't say that actually. I just like he did other stuff too. The body. So classic. He's so classic, but I do feel like for Euro trip. Yeah. We were like a little young to have watched Euro trip. Yeah. Yeah. I guess, but like he's classic. What else is he from? I feel like I've seen him and stuff. You know, he's in a ton of stuff, but I'm saying like people who are obsessed with him. Like I do feel like we're a little a couple years after those people. Yes. All the Americans. Yeah, which I might have seen one. So many. I'm coming to my best friends girl saving silver man. Save remind me what silver man is like dating that awful girl and they're trying to like break them up and him and his loser friends. And actually, oh, of course. Yeah. Who's the girl? Probably now if we watched it, she was like, she's like a queen. Just trying to like make him better. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Amanda Pete is a girl classic. Amanda Pete has been working forever. Yeah. Um, he's going to allow himself to be badgered into marrying Judith, a woman he doesn't love. They decide to reunite him with his ex or whatever. Long lost love from his school days. And then they kidnap Judith. Oh, dark. Yeah. Jersey girl. I know you love that. He's in Jersey girl. Yeah, there he is with Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler. Yeah. And the girl from the voice. Yeah. There he is. Who does he play? Someone in the cover photo. He plays. What? That's one of my favorite movies. He plays. I don't know. Oh, hold on. I'm going to IMTB. I'm really down the rabbit hole. Hold on. I'll find it. IMTB is not what it used to be. Agreed. Oh, Arthur Brick. Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He plays like Ben Affleck's like big city agent. He plays Arthur Brickman. Yeah, of course. I mean, putting him on the cover is kind of generous. Like nobody's such a big star. I mean, he's really, he's a character. He's really huge, but he's like very 90s, you know, and we were just like growing up at the time. Yeah. So sorry. Rip to that marriage. Yeah, sad. Are you ready for our next story? Another breakup. One number. Number four. Yeah. Is it Elsie Hewitt? Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt split five months after welcoming baby girl. So Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt have parted ways according to the son, the relationship fell victim to Pete's busy work schedule following baby Scotty's arrival in December. I'm sorry. That just can't be true. No, I'm sorry. That's fucking crazy. Unacceptable. Like to the point that I actually don't believe it because like if you wanted to, you would. Yeah. Um, and I'm going to, I'm going to go a little, you know, out of bounds here and say like, I just find this unacceptable. You have a five month old. Let's say it is the schedule. Thank you. What's the point in being famous if you can't take off a couple of months when you have a baby? Yeah. No, the outlet said Pete has been traveling so much for work, but Elsie was craving more support from him at home after their daughter was born. Um, it's like, like just, I, I find you're both my trash, right? Frankly, like this is so fucking unachievable. Try harder. Try harder. Act. Barring like the truth being any sort of like extenuating circumstances. Sorry. Too bad. You made this decision. Get back home. Get back in bed. Then they said it was very hard for him because obviously he has to work to make money. I'm sorry. If like Barbara Palvin and Dylan Spouse can work at the rate that they do, like, doesn't he live in his mom's like a basement? He's in the biggest movies of all time. Yeah. He has a very low overhead. He's not super glamorous. He's like the face of Calvin Klein. And up until recently, he had quite literally no responsibilities besides supporting like himself and his mom. Yeah. Like you don't have savings. You can't take off a couple months. And I'm sorry. Like if you, even if you do have to keep working, like you're at a point where like, why don't we all travel together? We're getting on a big tour bus. Like you make it work. No, but you can take a break. Of course. But let's say he can't. Like let's say he spent all his money and like, you know, on sneakers. Like I'm sorry. And this is like, this is everybody's. There are ways for him specifically to like make money from home, you know, or like a one day shoot day. Go do a commercial for Walmart. Go do some Instagram ads. Go do. Why don't you do one huge show? One huge night that'll pay for a couple more weeks, couple more months. Yeah. And it could be local because we're literally living New York. I'm really not concerned about his earning potential. And so I actually, I'm not buying this. I'm not buying this. You know, I reject this. I'm sorry. Like this is like, you have a duty as a parent to a five month old to at least try a little bit harder. Yeah. I'm getting the vibe that like, if that's true, this is like a manipulation of the truth. Like maybe like Pete's like scared and he's like spending time away because he doesn't want to be home. Like, sorry, do better. Yeah. And I'm sorry. This is like the internet's boyfriend. Everybody looks him up. Like he sucks. I feel like people are over that. You know, I still think people like love him and think he's the greatest. Like, and I hate this. Like, I think this makes you the worst. Yeah. His personal life is really a mess. And it's been a mess, but this is really. I feel bad for her. Yeah. Yeah. Same. I don't know.

You're welcome. Our fifth story is a new segment that I've started, that I'm starting. Oh, music to my ears. You know I live for a segment. I know you do. This one is called Nicolandria's Mindless News. I approve. Nicolandria's Mindless News like the 4th of July. So Nicolandria's- Sorry, not Elandria. This is not Elandria. This is Nick. It almost is never about- It's not about Elandria. Like it's about Nick. Yeah. He's responding to criticism of their romance. He's talking directly to us. Oh, shit. And he's also sharing his partnership with Smirnoff, of course. Oh my God, I'm telling you. They're never beating the fraudulent allegations. So he directly addressed the criticism surrounding his relationship with Elandria. And by the way, that's so- That's such a dishonest statement. It's not criticism about his relationship. Agreed. It's- It's doubts of the legitimacy. Yeah. At this point, the critics and the critiques are just overdone, he said. He told us weekly while promoting his Smirnoff- He's partnership. I'm screaming. He said, quote, I've said all I need to say. He has since- Okay. Shifted his approach adding, at this point, it's just not about giving it any more attention. He said, it's just intuition. He said, he's focused on prioritizing, protecting their relationship from outside commentary. He said, it's just intuition. I know the boundaries I have for myself and how much to share and what not to share. Lately, not revealing too much about my personal life has been so nice for both of us. He credited blocking people and setting boundaries online. He said, despite creating some distance, he still has enjoyed throwing out like breadcrumbs when it comes to milestones in him and Elandria's relationship. He said, he said, we'll be hanging out. And I'll take a picture where her hand will be in the photo and people will see. So it's kind of funny. Ahead of their one year anniversary- Wait, what? I'm cracking up. They're one year frauduvers, right? He recalls his immediate attraction to Elandria, which is this part I believe because what he says is true. And I think that he was- Like, I saw those fan edits from early days. Okay, I don't know actually if you can say immediate attraction because if you're immediately attracted to someone and then you make out with them and decide that, like, actually it's not a match, like, I'm sorry. There was not an immediate attraction. I'd say the first thing I noticed was obviously her beauty and grace. She just carries herself as a proper woman and the boss that she is. I just think that's really attractive, which is just facts. But he said he's appreciated the calm moments more. Looking ahead- I'm cracking up, like, literally. Okay, sorry, go. It just seems you need to read everything that I read. Wait, looking ahead, I want to go back to our island that we went on for one of our dates. I'd like to go back to that island about- Like, he wants to celebrate in Fiji. He also says that their fans are holding out hope for a Nickel and Dria appearance in the new season. He said that Smyrnoff Ice, which he's partnered with, is also partnering- Of course, can't forget. Is also partnering with Love Island, launching a new fan edit, a new campaign inviting fans to vote on a bold new flavor. He said, I'm in the DJ space and I'd like to have a Smyrnoff Ice with me. We did- We did what? He said, now that Smyrnoff is doing the partnership with Love Island, we're going to have eight new flavors that fans get to choose from during commercial breaks. If fans will be able to vote for it, I think that's really cool and interactive. Commercial breaks. I pay for the Peacock Premium during the summer, only during the summer. Listen, listen, we make fun of those who don't work, and we make fun of those who do. Maybe in the beginning, I respected their hustle and their commitment to this, but it's actually insulting, and it's really shocking, and it's actually not shocking, but I feel like it's a real indictment on the culture, like how dumb people are, because people are always like, Chaps Taylor is a PI relationship, but Nicolangia is real. Like, please, I actually can't. No, and the more we talk hysterical- The more we talk about Nicolangia, we really do get comments, how can you say they're fake? Nicolangia is real. Nicolangia forever. What are you guys talking about? What are you guys talking about? They do everything. I mean, actually, I don't follow them closely enough, but from what I see of them, they're really not together that often. But what he's saying is that they've chosen to do that for their privacy, because there were so many criticisms of their relationship. And I love that he's like, gets the opportunity- He puts her hand in to let the fans know that they're still together. I mean, while she's sending him pictures of her hand, being like, put this in your photo. Yeah, no. He gets the opportunity to respond to the criticism, and he's like, I'm just not going to give it any air. It just was so crazy. Like, I feel good knowing that I never bought into this. And I think people did buy into it, and maybe now don't, or they still do, but I never did. No. And I just like, I don't get it. It must really be making them money. And I think for him, I mean, for him, it's amazing. For him, it's amazing because look, Smirnoff Ice, like we're still talking about him. Of course, of course. He's a DJ. Everyone else is on Beyond the Villa. Yeah, of course. And they're so high above. She is on another level than him, but he's not with the rest of the boys dancing in an LA apartment. What does Nicolandria do for her? Bless you. I don't know. Now I feel like she could really use like a sort of animatics moment. She should be the Bachelorette. Yeah, it doesn't serve her anymore. I do think they were stronger together when they left the villa, but like, she's really exceeded him in terms of like, fame and prestige. And now he's definitely bringing her down with his like, Smirnoff articles. And yeah, she's like, there were talks about like, she was going to be at the Met Gala. Like, she's got to go. She should be the Bachelorette, 1,000 percent. Like, because she's single. And because she's so ready and she's so mature and she's so beautiful. And she has a great personality. Like, she can really carry. She was hilarious on the show. Like, it's one thing to be pretty, but like, you have to be the lead. You have to carry. Yeah. No, and that's what he said, like her beauty and grace, which like, we all know what he's talking about. Like the way that she just like holds herself is just, it's, it's queen like, it's queen like, it's very graceful. Yeah. Did you also see the rumors that Taylor Frankie Paul's season of the Bachelorette is going to air this summer? I think I told you that. No, but I just, I, that was like low. Like that's been bubbling, but I just saw like a more official rumor. I don't think so. Like the time has passed. People moved on. Like they took their loss. Yeah. And I don't know if they want to get back involved. Like it's so messy. Yeah, it is. The whole thing is messy. Also, like there was the report that there will be like no men on next season of Slamu. Love. Yeah. But also it's like, it doesn't have to be like zero or 100. Like we could have like 10. Jacob can stay. We could have like 10%. Even Jace. Even Jace. He could stay. Your boyfriend. The learning about their relationships as it doesn't bother me. It was when we had to treat dad talk like it was in any sort of way. Like worth considering in anything that we're thinking or talking about. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Queenie and Weenie. Yes. Those are the fast-flying stories and our final segment of the week is a little something we like to call Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week. Where we give out two awards. Pretty self-explanatory. Did you act like a Queenie this week? Well, you might find yourself in the Queenie seat. Did you act like a Weenie this week? You might be Weenie of the Week. Don't take it too seriously. It's a seven day title. We'll start with Queenie. We'll start with Queenie because I'm doing something unprecedented. What? My reigning Queenie two weeks in a row now. Is that supposed to happen? Spencer Pratt once again. I guess after the debate, he's really like become a bigger figure. It's become a national news story. It's become a national story because I really wasn't aware of what was happening. And so I've been just like getting so much more content of like his interviews and his videos. That's basura. Karen basura. Cracking me up. Like he is just like doing interviews. He makes like these AI videos. He like had like a song about that. And he did like a really big fundraiser at David Foster and Catherine Foster's house. I saw literary Princess of Malibu. If you know, you know. And I have just been loving watching everything. And I would watch like the video that he made in his airstream with like Heidi that was like black and white of like the boys going back to the house and like finding so like their old shovel burned in the backyard. Like it's just I'm like, I really been like taken by the whole the whole race. Now I'm really invested in what's going on over there. And once again, he is my queenie. I think he's doing such a great job. I think he's speaking for so many people. So bipartisan too, because I feel like across all the different things that I see, like so many different people are like supporting him. It's a non-partisan position, the role. Yeah. No. And he really like makes it about like he's here for the city of Los Angeles. Like it doesn't have to do with national politics or like foreign politics. Like he just wants what the Angelenos want, which is like a functioning city. And he's my queenie again. He was asked. You know, there's been a lot of comparisons to you, Spencer, for Zora and Mamdani, because you both really use social media to harness and like ignite the people. And Spencer was like, yeah, I mean, Zora and Mamdani wants free buses. And I also want buses free of urine. VCs. Like seriously, he's so funny. I don't know where he comes. He's very quick too. Yeah. He's very quick. He was like, so in that sense, we both want free things on the buses. Hilarious. Hilarious. He also was getting like a lot of shicks. I guess he's staying at a hotel when he like his home is an air stream right now. And he's just like a, but on the flight interview to TMZ being like, I can't live in that air stream. Like so many people want to kill me at that air stream. There's no structures around it. TMZ is like obsessed now with like exposing that he doesn't live in the air stream. I just want to say I never thought he actually lived in the air stream. He was making a point. This is my lot of land. I'm even air stream on it now because this is what the city is provided for me one year later. That is his home address. Like if he wants to go stay in a hotel right now while he's running a campaign and like, yeah, he needs security now. He needs, he can't be sitting in an air stream in the middle of nowhere. No, please. Like media literacy at a zero. Like I don't care. It's really crazy. It's really, really crazy. So anyways, I just, I've like been, I've fallen down a rabbit hole again further down the rabbit hole this week. And I think you just seem so sweet and I'm just really. Historic. Really. I think it's really amazing. And it's crazy to think about like the trajectory. Of course. And I remember when he announced it, like he was, he had a lot of momentum on social media during the fires, obviously because he was like a well-known person who lost his whole house, but also because he had this campaign, you know, to get Heidi's music to number one, to like, you know, fundraise for their new house and the journey it's taken has really been quite beautiful to watch. No. And in the time since like I stopped paying attention, he's gone from like there to like very serious candidate with like some of the biggest names in LA supporting him financially and otherwise. And it's really like amazing because he did it like totally bootstraps. Totally. It's very impressive. Yeah. Queenie like Queenie like. Yeah. So I think that's a first for me two weeks in a row row Queenie. My Queenie is also a reality star and it goes to just going to mean nothing to you. Joe Ellen. I don't know what the temperatures. I haven't went on Twitter yet to see like what people think, but and you can plug your ears. I just want to say, but now I know I'm going to like Joe Ellen. No, you don't know that you will. I fucking love Joe Ellen. I just feel like it what she's doing. It's like nobody wants to be that person, but sorry. That's how shows get made and that's how great. And I feel like she's actually doing it. And again, I haven't caught up on the whole thing. She's doing it in the most graceful like way that she possibly can. And yeah, it's like, okay, all the women is like, yeah, we know Brian's having an affair and like we'll tell Rula and she can do with that information what she will. But that's like that enough for Joe Ellen. It's like, girl, how fucking stupid are you? I relate to that. It's like, it's very hard to watch somebody be so dumb. And all the other women are sort of fine with it and Joe Ellen's not. And that's my Queen right there. Now, we any of the week touches on something that we spoke about in the beginning of the week. And I actually didn't go hard enough because if I am being honest, I hadn't seen the whole video and I have since seen the entire James Charles spirit airlines video and it actually like to play it for the group just in case anybody hasn't heard it in full. But we talked about it. You know what I'm talking about, right? No, no, but I didn't watch the video. I just heard about it. Oh, okay. Actually, I saw like clips, but yeah, the play it. Me too. I saw clips, but this like I watched it in full. We're being showed. I just got a DM on here from a girl that said, good morning, James. I know you'll probably never see this, but if you could just take one minute to read, it would really be the law to me. I'm really struggling right now because spirit airlines just help her bankruptcy. And I have lost my job here to go find me link. Any donations help? I'm sure they do sweetheart. I'm sure they do. You know what else would help you getting another job? Yeah, try that because in the time that it took you to copy and paste the same fuck-ass message to myself, we don't follow by the way, and probably a hundred other influencers and celebrities, you could have applied for a hundred other jobs, but you didn't because you're a lazy piece of shit and you're entitled, and you think that influencers and celebrities should fund your life for you. Why? Why would I ever help you? You're not a fan, you don't even follow me, you've never supported me, this is your first time DMing, and you think that I'm gonna send you money because you lost your job? Oh my god, welcome to the real world, sweetheart. People lose their jobs every fucking day, and you're white, pretty, and able-bodied. You're in a much better position than a lot of other people out here who are trying clearly much harder to make a better life for themselves. Why would I fucking help you? Aside from that, 17,000 people lost their jobs as peer airlines. Why do you think you need to go fuck me? I get at least like one percent respect the mentality of close mouthed don't get that doesn't hurt to try, but honestly it does hurt to try because now you pissed me off. Okay, I'm not the one. Go find fucking Mr. Reese, this is literally his entire shtick. I'm sure the next YouTube video is literally gonna be like, I rehired all 17,000 of the peer airlines employees and it's gonna be the real life hunger games, the last one of them to leave the spirit airlines playing, gets to be the CEO of the new company and gets a house that car $10 million that everybody else dies. Like go find out the new to compete and baby, I'm not helping you, I'm not fucking helping you. All you did was lost your job. Okay, welcome to the real world. I can at least understand if you were like James, I'm a longtime fan. Here's a trillion years of DMs and my support for you. I love you. I'm suffering with a really rare genetic disease that there is no cure for and I'm trying to raise money for myself and other people that have this. Maybe I would help. Maybe I would help because I love you and I appreciate you. This bitch, you lost your fucking job. Oh, are we gonna do nothing? I'm gonna do nothing. You know what you need to do? Go find a fucking new one girl. Put some effort into the workplace. Okay, so literally I had not seen it in full. I kept seeing clips and every clip I was getting was so much worse and I was like, Oh, wait, I feel like maybe like I was downplaying it. It's so bad. And like, I don't even know what the worst part of it is, but like, it's and of course the girls go find me blew up. She's like now an influencer. She's monetizing on TikTok and she James wrote her like a long, he deleted it. He made an apology video. He DM'd her a private apology to which she didn't answer. She just read it out like it's actually so crazy and that will end you. We need the week like bad take. No, but that's like a really crazy video. Is he doing crazy things right now? No, he's not like a rage bait or like he's not going through a manic episode. Like that was just a video he thought was a good take. Yeah. No, but it's not even about like the take, which is like a separate issue. It's like the manner in which he is speaking and yelling and the dramatic. Like, is it always like at that level? Yeah, he does like ransom. It's like usually it's funny and relatable and people like what he's saying. Sometimes it's a little polarizing, but oh, so maybe like maybe he's just gotten a lot of encouragement for his rants and like, maybe like for polarizing. And so he's felt like, Oh, this is like the next one that I should. He also donated $5,000 to her. Oh, well, what's crazy was that she was only raising $1,600. Like it wasn't like she was probably just trying to like make a run that month, you know, but doesn't it keep going up like the more you raise? Yeah, of course. So now it's out like 20,000. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's but her goal was 16. Like she had set out with that goal. Now. Yeah, it's just insane. Like it's the craziest video I've ever seen in my whole life. Yeah, especially from someone who's like been on the internet, but I guess if you're saying that he's been like doing rants and he's getting like positive only shit, but I could see how you would think like, Oh, let me keep doing like hot takes and right. And with a lot of, you know, emphasis, emphasis. Um, but yeah, that's really wild. That's a good one. That's a good weenie weenie weiner. Do you have a weenie of the week? No, I don't. I really feel like when I don't have a weenie in mind, like I, I don't want to pick one. All right. But that's a couple of weeks that you've been weenie list. So just you get your act together next week. I'm like just on a positive kick. What can I say? Yeah, you could say that. I just feel like you're not thinking hard enough or prepared. No, I really, I do think about it. And I go through the stories, but like no one like, let me see your weenie this week was a recycled queenie and no weenie. Like sorry, I have to be true to not to sound like not to sound like James Charles, but like you guys, you piece of shit. I have to be true to me, you know. Well, why don't you just try a little, a little true to you harder next week? I'll give you a weenie. I'll give you. Oh, great. May. No, I tell you I'm positive. Who? My weenie are the editors that were illustrated who did not put whoopie Goldberg on the cover. Thank you. That's brilliant. And who picked four covers instead of one per usual stop. I did read some feedback of people being like in the print industry. Like it's so hard to get people to buy a magazine that like it's even harder to get people to get people by four. It's yeah, you think one is hard. No, I saw that like, please stop. And if you had like one iconic cover, it would just be like more iconic and people would want to buy it versus like four random more valuable, more value. Yeah. Like you would be making a statement instead of four random people's Instagram photo. But thanks. Correct. That's our show, you guys. The place looks great. I mean, well, it always does.
