And Joey is, what is this, your third or fourth? Third for Jack's maternity leave. So that's why I wanted to ask you, when do I start getting my benefits? Because I have a tickle in my throat. Yeah, of course. No, I'm also feeling like you got me sick, actually. I'm also feeling a little tickle. You know what I'm just noticing about you? Something we've never spoken about on the shows. Oh, God. How many tattoos do you have? Oh, I have several.

This is what, it says my last name and it's the heart of Jesus. A love. Are you a religious person, Joey? No, I wasn't. But at the time, it was like, it was the thing. It was in Brooklyn. It was in the early 2000s. It was like a very like cool time. Yeah. And then it's the same thing with the hunter. Remember those lodge vibes and everything had like – Like dead deers. Oh, you literally had like a deer. Yeah. What is that? No, is that a deer?
1:55What is it? Yeah. But then I realized it looks like the Jägermeister symbol. Show it to me like this. I can't really see it. Oh, that's really beautiful. Oh, not a gun. You have a gun. I have a big pistol on my arm too. Are you a gun owner, Joey? I'm part of the NRA, believe it or not. I'm joking. No, I don't have a gun because, you know, if I already said this, it's dark for this early morning, but I would definitely off myself if I had a gun. so I can't have it. I can't have it in the house. Oh, yeah, don't say. I'll have one bad day looking chubby in the mirror and it'll be over. I can't do it.

Once again, your inner saboteur She gets you. rearing her ugly head. Yes. I can't with you. You look amazing in a beret. I just want to say. Well, you know, I'm growing my hair out and I've had some feedback, some pushback from loved ones. I've always had a short but it's like a little, you know, a little pixie cut, like a little buzz cut fade thing. But then after the hair transplant, I was like, you know what? If I got it, flaunt it.
2:53100%. And I was never able to have luscious locks. I mean, I don't want to like, you know, grow out where people are having, you know, trans rumors about me. But I do want to have some like flow back. Like, you know, I want leading man hair. Do you know what I mean? Like Matthew McConaughey, just like, you know, it's a little bit like pushback, rugged, a little wavy, tousled. I just want to say as a loved one, I am going to give you pushback. Like, I don't love that journey for you. Okay. A lot of people don't. I don't. My boyfriend already told me. I just sent him a picture. I was feeling myself feeling really cute.
3:21And he's like, you need a haircut. I was like, I'm growing it out. No. Remember growing your hair out for prom? It is such a core, like niche thing. Is it for prom? Back with it. But there was four extensions. I had like really, really long hair my whole life. Yeah. Like to my butt crack. And my hair at prom, insert photo here. It was so sick. Like down to my ass crack, beach waves. and then I had this little fishtail braid like hook in the back. What color did you wear? Black, of course, because I like had a fat arm. Oh. Yeah. What color, what did you wear to prom? I wore like a 1970s like disco style outfit.
3:55Of course you did. I had bleach blonde hair and I had this like suit, my tuxedo jacket had a zipper and then I had this little collar, fly collar that was open like big and wide. And most importantly, who did you go with? Michelle Marola. And were you out? Oh, yes. I had a full set of acrylics. I had a full set of acrylics. and lip gloss on.

I love that journey for Michelle. Yeah, yeah. Michelle's amazing.
4:24Amazing. So yeah, that's that. But yeah, back to growing my hair out. I just want to be able to, once it's there, trust me, it'll be good. Yeah. But it's the growing out phase. That's why I have to wear this hat. Do you mind removing the hat just so I can evaluate where we're at? I can't believe that, by the way, your hair looks amazing. Like you would never know that it's plugs. Oh, thank you. I just had it dyed by Rita Hazan. You had it dyed by Rita Hazan. Okay. Like that was not English. I was able to translate for the listeners though. And I just want to say, I stand by that. I think you should cut your hair.
4:50I'm with your boyfriend. I'm not into the long hair. Like it's not long hair. It's just, it's just like hair. I'm not into it. Do you want me to do an AI photo and send it to you later? One of my favorite things to do is make AI photos, like trying on new hairstyles. Oh, I know. I do it all the time. What app do you use? I have Gemini. Oh, wow. I'm a chat girl. I have Chachi Bici too, but she's like, she's more for like making like menus and like invitations and things. Yeah. Because her pictures, she always makes me a cartoon. So she always makes me a cartoon too. Yeah. Do you pay for premium chat?
5:21Yes, but not the biggest one. The biggest one is like$127 a month. You know, I do, what is it, like$19? Yeah, it's like$20. That's just enough. To get pictures. Yeah, but then Gemini does the good pictures. That's when you say like, oh, there's like a homeless man in the living room. that's the one that you can get to like and now people are using it for like gang bangs and stuff right of course how are people using gemini for gang bangs oh to generate images i'm just saying there's like make like 50 guys in a line next to my bed so and so by people doing that do you mean you i haven't done it yet but it's like girls trying to get a rise out of their boyfriend or their moms or their mom sending it to their sister sending it to the mom like you know carols in the other room with a bang bang i love that yeah now you hosted thanksgiving at your home it looked beautiful i saw you stuck to your word of a red table i did i also noticed and some similarities between family members.
6:05I was, not only the Brussels sprout salad that came out of nowhere. Did you notice that? I did notice that, but I did notice that you and Jackie had similar tablescapes. Similar tablescapes. And I didn't ever know she had such a beautiful dining room. That curved wall. Very beautiful. The round table. With the round table and the round curtains. Stunning. So, and I did get a lot of comments that Jackie copied your table. And while she probably did, I do think it's important for everyone to know, we got most of the tablescape items at HomeGoods. We've logged the experience and HomeGoods was, Pretty crappy, I'm not going to lie.
6:34And so we just took what we could get, which was red. Yeah. It's on trend. Your table was beautiful. Thank you very much. It was the Pantone color of the month. Oh, was it? I picked it up. I made it up. I don't know if it was. But everyone, and even Hoda and Kathy and Hoda, whoever they were, at the Thanksgiving Day parade had similar florals to me. Did you watch the parade? It was on in the background as I was preparing the home. Yes, of course. It's just background fodder. It's background noise. Did you enjoy? I didn't really see anything, but I know that everyone was spooked out by that girl, Taylor Mumpson.
7:05She showed up as a goth. She was spooky. Spooky. She was originally the. She's a little girl in the Grinch. Cindy Lou Who. And she sings, where are you, Chris? Now, in her later years. I was like, where are you, micellar water? Trying to get that eyeliner cleaned up, mama. In later years, she, of course, is Jenny from Gossip Girl, but she also started and currently participates in some sort of like rock band. so in I think a form of taking her power back from like childhood trauma yeah she decided to release a version of where are you christmas like screamo oh um so that's what she was doing at the parade where are you christmas i saw i saw her at the vmas and i was frightened you saw her in person yeah in person she was next yeah a fun fact about you was that you go to the vmas pretty much every year due to your close proximity to mtv star snooki yeah i do and what is that like and again that was over i were read that i was i was setting the tone for the table there as well i were all red in burgundy oh so setting the tone yeah i love that it was like project my own version of project rose yeah would you ever okay what's a reality show and that's actually a great segue to our first story which i feel like nobody cares you know the show um what's it called special forces yes my friend judice just won that so my first story sorry for the quick segue but i do want to get into the past five stories today's episode of the toast is brought to you by nanette parenthood looks a lot different today than ever before and the tools we have access to do too like nanette think about how obvious it feels to track your sleep your steps or how you wouldn't leave your house without your smartphone.

I feel like they announced the cast. Nobody actually watches the show and then like I never find out who wins. Right. But I found out who won and I'm shocked because it was Miss Gia Giudice along with Sean Johnson, former Olympic athlete. Yes. So it begs the question, Joey. You're asked to do Special Forces, which I do feel like could be in your future. I mean, if I'm going to do any reality show, it's not going to be one of those first, the first one off the jump.
14:23I want something like an ease into like, you know, like a summer house where I can like lounge and drink spritzes. Cast Joey Camasta for Summer House 2026. I run the Hamptons in the summer. Wait, that's a great idea. Thank you, Paige. I can take her spot. 100%. There is an opening in the bed. Yeah. Now, I do feel like it's worth mentioning every time I talk about this story that I was asked to be on this particular season of Special Forces. And I did say no, one, because I was pregnant, and two, because I could never - You would never. Do you know what's involved? I don't even need to know. I know that it's outside, and there's running.
14:53It's like, no. They take them to obscure places. I don't know where this season, but they've done Australia. It's always in the middle of the desert. And the premise of the show is to see if like these, you know, influencers, reality stars and celebrities can withstand what, you know, the special forces go through. So you go through special force training, like army crawling and jumping out of helicopters and, you know, living in a cave and you don't eat. And I cannot believe Gia Judice won. Now, people forget Shawn Johnson. She's like this pretty young thing. She's a former Olympic athlete and a gold medal winning one.
15:21She's been training this for a whole lot. A hundred percent. That's the way you should feel your whole life. And I cannot believe, like, I'm shocked at Gia Judice. I know. Well, she's been resilient for many years. She's been through. Yes, it's so true. Her personal life is, you know, ups and downs. Also been preparing for this her whole life. Yeah. Emotionally, she was ready for it. I think. And then her mom was, Teresa, was there beforehand. Now, the funny thing is that you don't get eliminated. It's like who can stay there the longest? People send themselves home. Brittany Cartwright, relatable queen, went home the first day.
15:49What do they win? Money? Yeah. And also like press and fame. Yeah. I would have went home. I would have got my like some good one-liners in the first episode and then left. Yeah, of course. Like a couple of clips, a couple of viral sounds. Yeah. No, the only one I would do like that is not the full Survivor, but Survivor does this little influencer thing. They did it last year, and I went to some press event for it. It's like Influencer Survivor. Where it's like a couple of days. Yeah, it's a couple of days, and you do the challenges, but that's low impact. I can sleep outside. That's fine. I can pass out anywhere.
16:17Yeah, right. That's fine. And then the challenges are like making a puzzle. So it's like I can do that in the wilderness, and you get to fly first class to Fiji. So it's like – So it's worth it. Why not? Yeah. Yeah, there are a couple of shows that like podcasters, influencers are always kind of, not always, but recently being tapped for. We talked about this yesterday with Rami Bader. Dancing with the Stars being one of them. Special Forces being one of them. There are a couple of shows. Was she asked to dance with the Stars? No, no. But we were saying like if you were asked to do it, would you do it?
16:40Like it's really hard. I actually don't think that I would. Yeah. Would you? I would do it, yeah. Yeah. I have nothing else going on. But you have babies and you know. Right. No, it's hard. Like you have to pick up and move to LA. I for one, like I would never do Special Forces. No, no, no, no, no. And I didn't say no last time because I was pregnant. Like I said, no, because I could fucking never. And also I would try to suck all their dicks. Like the hot guys are screaming at you. I would get boned up. Okay. So I actually think that's also an amazing segue to our next story. Yeah. Which I know you wanted to talk about.
17:06I did. And I need you to explain to me because I only recently. I'm still not okay. So I recently started seeing everybody talking about this show. It's a new show on Max and it's called Heated Rivalry. Yes. And it's basically like a gay pornography, correct? Yes. Everyone's obsessed with it. I saw it all over my, I started seeing it on my like social media yesterday. But it's also like a hockey. Yeah. It's girls and gays are choking. They're gagging. And I don't know if you know, but like hockey is like a huge thing for female romance. Oh. Yeah. It's like there's an obsession with hockey players.
17:36There's like, especially in novels. Well, that's why it's a book. This is based on a book. Oh, it is. Yes. Oh, okay. So that makes sense. So tell me about the show. Okay. So it's based on a book. There's apparently two books. And so everybody knows what's going on. Do you read the books? I didn't. I just knew. I just found out about it. Everyone's tagging me in it and saying, look at this, look at this. And then. Well, because I saw like a clip and he was like, you have to suck my dick. And he was like, you have to suck my dick. Yeah, I was like, you learned English quick. So it takes place in.
17:59Wait, does he speak English? One of them pretends to be Russian. He is Russian. He's not really Russian. Oh, so there's a political element too, like America versus Russia. No, it's not even. It's Canada versus Russia. Oh, even more political. So there's a Canadian boy and he's a Russian guy and they're on two opposing teams. And they're like the two biggest rookies in the hockey scene. They're one to watch. There's press everywhere. They're getting sponsorship. and they're neck and neck for the title of whatever. And I don't know, by episode two, they're in a shower together and the one's jerking off in front of the other one.
18:31And it turns into being so sexless detention. They're like, I'm not, you know, I don't, it takes a lot to get me going. Does it? You're not usually, you've been around the block. Yeah, I need scented candles. I need a cocktail of pills. A warm oil. Yeah, and vascular uppers and things, you know, I need it all. Poppers. This is like, it's just very, it reminds me of being a schoolgirl again. Like, remember when I had my first crush? I've never really been moved and I don't like gay shit like I don't like gay films and stuff I feel like they're like they're performative and fake and whatever but I got I think girls and gays are getting this feeling of like having that crush and that intimidation of like oh my god and like flirting and like a thousand percent it is like it really brings you right into the scene no matter who you are I'm trying to think of like the straight equivalent like a TV show that I feel like normal people well they have to be secret so they have to be like secret lovers like no one can know about them because it can ruin their careers oh so they're not out no no no no No, they're both like not out at all.
19:23And it has to be very secretive because of the – because they're both pretending to be straight. And then also they're going to lose their sponsorship. So they're always sneaking around like going to the hotels and stuff. Which makes it, of course, more titillating. Experiencing like their sex for the first time and the flirtatiousness. But it's like also the emotional element comes in where like I think the bottom, the biracial one, he's half Asian and half white. And is he Canadian or Russian? He's Canadian. Okay, so he's the bottom. Yeah, he's the bottom. The Russian would be the top. Yeah, and he's starting to catch feeling.
19:50the bottom starts to catch Jordan's feelings he's like the last episode there's only two episodes out this is another thing they're edging you oh that's so annoying yeah so I have to wait I can't believe they're making this much like waves with only two episodes out well I think everyone knows this is what's the comment apparently there's a tuna melt scene I don't know what this is about it's all everyone on Reddit is talking about it's like I'll wait for the tuna melt scene we can't wait to see how it's portrayed I guess in the books it's like some like really hot scene but this guy's ass this guy's the bottom can I show it to you please do you have a picture of it on your phone you have to google it no I have it this is my reaction after I saw it.

Read the full transcript
21:29Now let me ask you a question. Yeah. Do you watch this show with your man or it's a solo thing? He hasn't seen it yet. He's been busy. Yeah he's been home for the holiday but I haven't I don't think he would want to watch this. I don't think he's into it. I don't think he's really into like this kind of gay stuff but I think he should watch it. I think it's very I open it. What is the show? I have seen. What's like the classic gay soap opera? Queer as Folk? Yes. Yes. I have seen Queer as Folk. And I feel like this is this generation's Queer as Folk. Kind of. Yeah. But that's like really about like gay people and being out and like, you know, and being accepted.
21:59This is like behind the scenes. Right, right, right. It's like kind of putting gay people back. I don't even know what happens to the books. Maybe they get out of like I guess everyone else knows, but I'm saving it for. That sounds like a better experience. I'm saving myself for the tuna melt scene. What gay piece of media was like your sexual awakening? I'm trying to – it wasn't Ellen for sure. I'm not surprised to hear that. And it wasn't Sandra Bernhardt making out on Roseanne. Okay, why are you pointing to women? You are a gay man. I don't know. I don't really think I had a gay – my awakening was like, you know, seeing cute boys that had crushes on.
22:29Right, like very standard stuff. Yeah, yeah. Johnson and Taylor Thomas. Classic. At the time. Yeah, you're so Taylor Strecker with that. Yeah. But I think the gay – where did I see – I would think maybe Doogie Howser, knowing he was gay in real life. Oh, that was big for you, for the community. For me, just in general, that there was like other actors that were really gay, even if he wasn't playing a gay character. No, I think like early on with Doogie Howser, like we found out that he was homo. And I think that something like that, like seeing representation in the media. The other option was, you know, Pedro Zamora with AIDS and he died.
23:00So it's like, you know, that wasn't a great representation at the time. Now, I feel like I've asked you this and I apologize if it's repetitive to people who have listened to like an episode of yours. but you're coming out journey. Yeah. Walk me through it. It never had to come out. It was just obvious. Yeah, it was obvious. It was like, girl, if you have eyes. Yeah. I was doing roller sets in my bedroom at like 12. Right, okay. So it was like, the jig is up. So did you have like an official combo with your parents? No. Okay. I just started bringing boys home. Oh, great. Love that. And they knew, yeah.
23:26That's so easy. I think my mom would be like, Joey, are you queer? I'd be like, shut up. Queer. I'm cracking up. Now, next up is a little girly news. Millie Bobby Brown. She has changed her name. She got married a year ago. To Bon Jovi. Yes. Now she is Millie Bonnie Brown Giovi. How do you say she changed from Bobby to Bonnie? So Millie, yeah, wait. Because she's Millie Bobby Brown. That's her first name. Bobby Brown's her last name? Is it hyphenated? Millie Bobby Brown is her name. Like her OG name, her stage name. But is Bobby Brown hyphenated two last names? Or is Bobby her middle name? Middle name.
24:00I'm not sure. Because now she's going by Millie Bonnie Brown Bon Jovi. M-B-B-B. Pick a struggle, bitch. I can't. Yeah. No, she's not married to our friend that has the wine, is she? No, his brother. Jesse, our friend Jesse. And I do understand, like, if you're marrying somebody whose last name is, you know, Bon Jovi, of course you're going to take it. That's like if I married a Rockefeller. You are going to catch me Claudia Rockefeller. It is what it is. It's an interesting choice to wait one whole year after you get married. But, you know, they do have a baby together now, and sometimes, like, you feel more - She's a baby?
24:31Yeah, they adopted a baby. Oh, my God. Mm-hmm. Oh, they adopted a baby. Yeah, so she wasn't pregnant. I remember seeing her pregnant. Yeah, right. Well, good for them. I feel like now when you become more of a family, that's when you change your name. She's been getting a lot of scrutiny. She had a hard run. Yeah. You know what I mean? I guess everyone, it's hard to go from a shaved head girl eating Legos. Eating Eggos, sorry. And yeah, she's getting that. You know, she grew her hair blonde and everyone's trying to say she can't be sexual. Right. I get it. We've grown up in the media. I don't know about her.
25:04Yeah, she's – and I feel bad for her. Yeah. She's got a hard run. Now she had to go – now she's playing again in the new season. Yeah. Her new show. Now, you're – let's say, hypothetical scenario, you get married. Yeah. You're keeping your last name. You're changing your last name. What are your thoughts on the movement? I think – the thing is, if I was a young girl, I would definitely hyphenate it. I would get it tattooed on my forehead. Now it's just like silly for me like to change my name. Because you're like a public figure. Yeah, I have one foot in the grave, mama. Right. Yeah, and also out of my brand.
25:30I don't want to ruin my brand. But I think of it from the brand perspective. Like it's hard enough to get people to know like your real name and then you have to confuse them. You have to be really, really famous. Like when Kim did Kim Kardashian West. I do feel like. I don't know why she did that. I don't either. But I do feel like it's stuck. Yeah. Like you have to be famous enough with Kim Kardashian. Yeah. To then change the name. Can I. I have. I'm having a spasm in my head. I have to get it out. Please. Wicked Witch. Madame Marble. Turn it around. Wicked Witch. And I hate Meghan Markle. So I'm like Meghan Markle.
26:01Turn it around. Fucking bitch. That is, by the way, I'm so glad you brought that up. Megan Marbles. Madame Marble, flip it around, Wicked Witch. I'm so glad you brought that up. Wicked Witch. What's her name? Michelle Yeoh is having a Lady Gaga moment where she had made this joke in interviews for Wicked like a couple of times. And now somebody stitched together. She had this funny little joke when Lady Gaga said, you know, there could be 100 people in a room and 99 of them don't believe in you. All it takes is one. And that was Bradley Cooper. And she said it 100 times in 100 different interviews.
26:31And they stitched it together and it became her thing. Now Michelle Yeoh is having that with Madame Marble. Flip it around. What do you get? Wicked Witch. She's so funny. I'm fucking obsessed. There's a comedian on TikTok that did like a thing of how it came about. Like she's, I forget her name. She's blonde. She was so funny. She, but she like, her skit was like saying to her, like a fan, she was a fan meeting her. It's like, oh, just I noticed one day it's like this. And she goes, who else have you told this Michelle Yeoh? She goes, no. And then so she kills her and steals her idea. So funny.
26:57It was really funny. Meghan Markle, flip it around. Fucking bitch. Seriously funny stuff. Anything new with Megan you want to discuss? No, I'm just annoyed that she has that fucking show and I don't. I know. Are you going to watch? This is like the third season now. They're doing like a holiday spectacular. No, and I don't like all those celebrities. I know. I was like, Mindy Kaelin, what are you doing in there? Get out of the lion's den. And that was really awkward. Yeah, it was. Because I love Mindy Kaelin. Me too. She's my girl. Yeah, I didn't like that. Do you ever watch Mindy Project? Oh, of course.
27:22I loved it. It's literally the best show. She was my all-time favorite character on the - On TV ever made. So real. There was nothing like that at the time. Nothing. And there still isn't. And fun fact, you know, Good Guys host Josh Peck is on. He has a little storyline in Mindy Project. I was just chatting with him and your husband the other day. Oh, yes. You were on their podcast. Do you know when that's coming out? I don't know. I hope it didn't end up on the cutting room floor. No, we don't. But you know, the funny thing about the Good Guys is they pre-record. They're talking about the Oscars two weeks after the Oscars have aired.
27:51That's just the Good Guys. Those old men. And that's what makes them special. So, Billy Bobbi Brown changing her name. And I just want to say I fully understand. Yeah, get it, girl. Yeah, like. That's going to be a hell of a lot of embroideries on towels, though. Yeah, Millie, Bonnie, Brown, Bon Jovi. Yeah, I would just put a big B. Yeah, just sort of sums it up. Jackie and I are pretty conflicted when we talk about, like, name changing. Jackie and I, legally, both of us, like, didn't change our names. Yeah. My friends don't do that same thing. And it's not like we were taking a stand or anything.
28:17I think it was just pure laziness. And now, if you were to ask me, like, I'm sorry, no, I'm not doing it. What about your babies? Do you want to have the same last name as your babies? I know. That's what's, like, unfortunate. like who is this woman yeah like stranger danger call the police it's a good question um and at this moment like i just don't care you know but again and i know i think people think we're joking but really for your career you do need to keep it of course and sometimes girls write in for like dear toasters talking about like giving up their names and how they struggle with it and i don't think it should be like just the girls change their name like i'm over that and i'm not like being like a radical like hairy armpit feminist i just mean more like whose last name is better yeah who you know whose family has a better more interesting legacy true that sorry um okay next up everybody wants to kill me because like I've been talking so much about weight loss like Remy was on yesterday we did a whole episode and I'm sorry like it's just who I am I binge 8 yes this weekend so I almost didn't choose this story but I do want to talk about Amy Schumer she's who said this like kind of Instagram talking about you know her weight loss she's so much did she lose weight oh my god she's one pound let me show you you're gonna die from this photo okay girl we should post it on her Instagram two seconds hold on well she struggled with things so she had a bad pregnancy she had a bad pregnancy she had a like kind of crazy condition where her face blew up and like it could have been really right look okay so skinny that's real yeah no yes her instagram that's ai no it's not wow yeah that's like when adele came out right did her thing so then she posted this video and it's raising a lot of like flags she said it's just like it's like a video and has so much text over it like this is what it looks like and it's like moving in the background i never wear jewelry i don't get botox or filler i didn't lose 30 pounds i lost 50 not to look hot which does feel fun and temporary i did it to survive i had a disease that makes your face extremely puffy that can kill you but the internet caught it and that disease has now been cleared sorry for whatever feeling this is giving you that i lost weight i've had plastic surgery over the years and i use manjaro sorry to anyone that lets that sorry to anyone that feels let down i'm pain free i can play tag with my son and then she has like text that sideways whatever ends up happening with me and chris who's that her boyfriend her husband husband has nothing to do with weight loss or autism fingers crossed that we make it through he's the best he can't handle her new life happy to share more if anyone has questions about how I'm looking or feeling or where I am in my perimenopause process now people freaked about the Chris thing I feel like I don't know Amy Schumer but I feel like she's joking you know I feel yeah I feel like she's saying she's so hot now her husband might leave her yeah it's like a joke you know she might leave her husband yeah because she's so hot now like it's a joke I get that's exactly what I got from it.
30:48You know, me too, but everybody's like, where are another like surfacing old things she said about him? Like, I feel like they're fine. Like, I need everyone to calm down. And this is just what I was talking about with Remy yesterday. Like, whenever a woman specifically loses weight, like, they have to explain themselves in like an essay. Like, who gives a fuck? Jelly Roll's not explaining himself. Everybody's like, Jelly Roll looks amazing. Yeah, yeah. Like, who gives a fuck? Good for her, though. Totally. She looks amazing. She looks amazing. And she's able to keep it up, keep it up with her son.
31:12What do you think, like, is your dream weight? Is there a number in mind? Probably like 180. Yeah, that's a good one. Under 200 pounds for sure. Got it. When was the last time you were? Oh, I don't know. Probably 13. Yeah. Yeah. Were you a big kid? I was, yeah. I was a skinny like a middle schooler. Not middle school. A skinny like elementary schooler. But then I blew up like in middle school when I realized hot lunch. Like puberty. Hot lunch, yeah. And what kind of like environment was your home? Like did you eat? Like were you encouraged to eat a lot at home or were you encouraged like would you be a toxic almond mom?
31:43Yeah, no, like not a mom at all. We were picking out all the time. Because you're Italian and like, yeah, Sunday dinner. Yeah, so it was like, I was just always chubby. And then like, you know, and then I got, and then I became anorexic like shortly after high school. And I was 130 pounds. I have pictures. Oh, that's really, you do. You have to show me. I'm sure it was, I looked like Skeletor. Yeah, like not good. No, and I was trying to like, you know, be a supermodel and keep up with the gay scene at the time. It can be very toxic. It was very toxic. And I remember I fainted once from not eating.
32:11My father woke me up, shoving food in my mouth screaming, you're not a supermodel. You're not a supermodel. That's very DJ Tanner of you. Yeah, it was. And I was like, yes, I am. Oh, my God. And now look at me. I still am. I know you're perfect. Yeah. Yeah, I would like to get down to like that. Okay. I could. I just have to put my mind to it. I know. It's so hard. And, you know, they say like, you know, it's, you know, everyone's like losing all the weight on their GLP-1 journeys. And for me, it's I am losing it, but it's also like insurance and safety. And I was like, you know, I know if I just start eating salads, I'll be like lose all the weight but this is like you know i can play i can i can pig out like a pig and not gain the weight right but i'm still i'm a plateau queen right right listen is a plateau a french word no okay it does sound and it's spelled with that e-a-u teal very french i feel like if it was french it would be like an x at the end plateau what's your favorite french word um probably baguette it's a good one yeah yeah and where do you think is the best baguette in the city i haven't really ventured into the french patisseries yet but i haven't i did order Cidarella yesterday and they do have the French ham I like there.

It was somebody else's reservation. Like it's impenetrable. You can like wait outside, you know. I can't do that. I know, I know. Can you get me into the polar bar? You would have to ask Ben Salter.

So Sean Diddy Combs, this clip went viral from the trailer. He was seen having a very heated conversation with his lawyer. It's a first look at the forthcoming Netflix documentary about his legal struggles. So Netflix dropped the 56 second trailer for Sean Combs, colon, The Reckoning on Monday, including a clip of him in a hotel room six days before his arrest.
39:09He said, we have to find somebody that will work with us that has dealt in the dirtiest of dirty business, the Grammy winner said. He's on the phone with his attorney. Combs, who was wearing a black at leisure set. And a beret? No, just a regular head. He appeared anxious as he repeatedly bounced his knee up and down. We're losing, he angrily said. The following week, he was detained and charged with transportation to engage in prostitution, racketeering, conspiracy, and sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion. so I was shocked to see that there's footage from this time so he's consented to film to letting and he also consented to releasing this right so I'm curious like what angle the documentary because 50 cent is in it did you see that no he's producing it oh I'm confused about where the Combs documentary I think it's like trying to prove his innocence like like receipts type shit So he's producing it?
40:05Not innocent. I'm not saying he's innocent. But I'm saying he's probably trying to make clear his name in some way and angle it in a way so people have feelings for him again. So when he does get out, he could have some sort of life. I'm assuming. I have no idea what's going on. This is 50 Cent's Diddy documentary. And that's – You know 50 Cent has committed his life to destroying Sean Combs. Oh, he is – Oh. That's what I'm saying. Because Sean Combs doesn't get involved – I'm sorry. 50 Cent does not get involved in Shade and like off shit. He's like a real, real person. So it is executive produced by his longtime rival, Curtis Jackson, also known as 50 Cent.
40:37So this is a hit piece. It's a takedown. What is it called? A scam? And I saw that they cut to 50 Cent talking about the documentary, and he is the biggest smile on his face. He cannot stop smiling. I think he's so excited. And I actually think we need a ditty documentary. I feel like they make a documentary for everything. But there's so much. And I feel like I actually got lost in the sauce. There's already a heist, a Louvre heist documentary on Netflix. Yeah. Time by time, they have like, I have like eyewitnesses that were in the room at the time. That's a good one. I would watch that. Well, I have to for my country.
41:10Right, right. For your country, for king and country. Now, did you serve in the French army? No, I served in the Lambert district. It was a trench coat though. Oh, got it, got it. Down the street. Have you ever been to Amsterdam's red light district? No, my boyfriend was just there though. Have you been to Thailand's like lady boy? No, not yet. No, I feel like maybe you should take a trip. I don't want to go there. That looks very desolate. but I have to ride a ride on a motorcycle and then compete with all the other ladyboys. It's like, it's my thing. I feel like your hat would fall off on a Vanspa.
41:38Terrible. But I would go to Amsterdam. That looks lovely. Yeah, yeah. Like the Royal Hospice of Beverly Hills. But everyone goes to Amsterdam. Like, you know, back then it was like everyone went there because mushrooms and weed were illegal. Now you can have that here. Right. So like unless there's a more dangerous drug I can have that I can't get here, then I'm not really going all the way over there. Amsterdam sort of lost its allure. Yeah. Now, are you ready for To Your Toasters, Joe? We are weekly advice segment where we try to help out the girlies in need. Yes, I love doing this. Now, I did choose these specifically for you because I feel like, you know, sometimes we need brutal honesty and there's nobody better.

Girlies, help. my 32 year old brother is single gay and has thinning slash balding hair he's clearly self-conscious about it because he's now growing his hair out longer and respect this is my boyfriend this is my boyfriend i'm fucking crying okay he's clearly self-conscious about it because he's growing his hair out and respectfully it looks terrible sorry how can i'm not laughing at you and the boy i just want to I'm laughing at Joey.
42:53How can I help him help himself without being an overbearing, like, bitchy sister? He just moved to Minneapolis. He gets his hair cut at cost cutters, which I assume is, like, super cuts. Oh, my God. This man needs an intervention. It's the holiday, so I feel like I could gift him something that would help. Any ideas? I would. Nothing. Gays love nothing more than a makeover. Yeah. A makeover montage. Yeah. I would be, like, let's. I would suggest a makeover. Look at guys. I think at this point, shaving his head might be the best thing, like, buzzing his head. Yeah. take pictures of like Jason Statham and like, you know, hot bald guys.
43:23I'm like, oh my God, look at this look. And just, but don't even mention, but talk about the clothes first. And then he just happens to be bald, shaved head. What is like the consensus in the gay community about bald? Like is bald in, is bald out? I mean, I think if it's, yeah. Depends on the person. Balding never looks good on anyone. No, not balding, being totally bald, like shaving your head. Yeah, no, that looks, that's the most option you'd want. Yeah, I agree. Because there's no other kind of option for people. And I think it looks the best. And most times they look better with their head shaved.
43:48They definitely look better with their head shaved than the Larry David ring. Yeah, you can't have that. Terrible. And you get a whole new persona with it. Like you have a badass, like you're the villain all of a sudden. So how do you suggest? I would show, I would go to the Gemini on Google Gemini and show some AI renderings of different styles or suggest Dr. Trutella for a hair transplant. From New Jersey, right. Well, I would love to know your financial situation. Are you in the business of being able to gift a hair transplant? Because that obviously seems like the clearly, like the obvious choice.
44:19Am I? No, the girl writing in. Oh yeah, maybe. She said I want to maybe get him something for the holidays that will help. But like, can you get him hair transplants? Like what's your financial situation? Or you can get him like a good lace front from TikTok. A trip to Turkey. Yeah. Now, do you feel like it would be easier for her to help this brother if he was straight or if he was gay? Like, I feel like straight men like - Straight would be easier. Yeah, they'll just do whatever you say. Yeah, because the gay is going to get pushback. Right. No one needs that. From the community. From a disgruntled queen.
44:44Yeah.
44:48Dear Jackson Claude, well, Joey and Claude, I recently hosted my father's birthday and my younger sister offered to make a very beautiful ice cream sundae spread instead of a typical birthday cake. She brought ice cream and various toppings from her absolute favorite hometown ice cream shop and it was really wonderful. But when the party was over, she pulled out a cooler and in typical little sister behavior, she packed her ice packs and took all the leftover ice cream. I will say it was a little expensive for ice cream, but I'm worried that she does this at like other parties with other friends.
45:13How do I handle telling her she should have just left the leftovers without hurting her feelings? I do love how much she helps out when it's needed, but I'm a concerned big sister. Well, big sister being the operative, because she wants to eat all the ice cream. Yeah, of course, big, fat big sister. Now, the thing is, like, does your sister have a, let's pretend like your sister has a pattern of bringing a cooler to different affairs. You're at a dinner party. She brings a wagon. Right. One of those, um, Taylor, Taylor Strucker has it. What's that thing called? The Husky. With an H. The wheelie thing.
45:40Hulken. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is she bringing a hulken bag to all, like, dinner parties? Yes. Then the thing is, you do have to have an intervention. But if she did something nice and just wanted to take the ice cream home with her, like you're being a little bit of a bitch. Yeah, I think the same thing is if you go to a house party and you bring wine or liquor or something and you take it back with you. Oh, do people do that? Not at my house. Of course not. They'll get clipped. Let me ask you a question. What is your take on like leftovers? Because I – Get it out. Yes, okay. Get it out. I don't want anything in the house ever.
46:06I throw things out. I call my cleaning lady once a week to come on an off day just to like to take shit out of the house. I don't want it. Jackie and Ben call me the sweeper because I'm always like sweeping shit up. I'm throwing away family heirlooms. Like I'm throwing away everything. Get it out. I hate shit. I didn't know that about you, that you have sweeper energy as well. And I'm the same. I hate leftovers. I have never once taken something home and eaten it the next day. Like I know it's a waste of money, of food, and there are people dying. I know. I'll do it if I know I'm going to be wasted and I want to pig out.
46:34Like I pre-know that I'm going to be a fat pig and like want to like eat it. And I'll do that. But like, yeah, leftovers. First of all, like at the house, I'm never going to eat it again. And then I just don't have room in the fridge. I want everything out of the fucking house. So I give away everything. Me too. I have Costco-sized things of like to-go containers in my closet. You would think I work in like a restaurant. Just get everything. Get it out. So when you cook, because you're like a big chef. I cook overly. I make so much food. You do. And then what do you do with it? I end up giving it away or like throwing it out.
47:00Oh, I know. I'm the same way, but like I just hate shit in my house. Is that Tower Load? Yeah. So my lip liner, if anyone wants to know, this is Tower 28 Shade. I feel like I've penciled off the shade, you know? O1C4. And I'm pairing it with this Rode Lip Peptide. Have you tried these? I haven't tried that one but I know they have the phone case with it. I'm wearing homeoplasm. You can only get it in Paris. It's a nipple cream that they use for nursing mothers. Yeah, I'm familiar. It's called Lansino. It's a brand. Yeah, I used it. It's a French brand actually called Lansino. And also Lanolin.
47:34They both make nipple cream and when I was needing nipple cream, I put it right on my lips. It's better than like Aquaphor. My plums. Tower load, I was telling you earlier, there's a gay porn site called Tower Load. And I was looking for the spray because my friend wanted to get that red spray. What red spray? There's a Tower 28 makes a spray. Oh, setting spray. I thought you meant a red spray from the porn site. No. So then I called. So I went to Sephora and I was like, do you guys have Tower Load? Oh, my God. And she's like, Tower Load. Did she Google it? No, she didn't Google the thing. She goes, oh, you mean Tower 28.
48:06I was like, oh, that's what it is. Oh, my God. And she wrote me with the Tower 28. What's your porn website of choice? Hamster, ex-hamster. Is that for animals? No. Oh, okay. I don't know why it's called that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, sorry. I was confused. I don't know why it's called that, but I think that's the one I used to use. Would you ever be a porn star, Joey? If I was endowed and had the body. Yeah, I'd be disgusting. Right, right, right. Yeah. God knew not to give me a big dick. I actually. You ran through. I actually shudder to think what I would be like if I was always in my life very naturally thin and small.
48:38I would end up doing porn. But I think the thing is, if I, that's a hard question. If I always had that, I probably wouldn't be a pig. But since we've been fucked with our whole lives, like, you know, with our bodies, it's like if I finally got that, then I would be disgusting. Right, right. Because I've waited my whole life for this. Right, right. I'm not going to give it up now. Right, right, right. Yeah. All right. Next up. Hello, Jackson Claude. I need your advice on how to respond to declining my father-in-law's friend requests on not one but two social media platforms. In the past, I know my father-in-law has been using his late wife's phone, watching my stories on her Facebook and Instagram page.
49:07and with the holidays coming up, I know I'm going to be asked about it and I get a pit every time I think about addressing it. I have zero problem with confrontation, but out of respect to my husband, I'd like to try to maintain a level of cool. My husband does not have social media and I know that my father-in-law uses it to see photos of our kids. I just don't find it necessary to be friends with him on social media. Thanks. A swirly in need of some help with the words. Originally, when I first heard it, it sounded like there was a creepy undertone to it. Then I heard about, like, he's just that old widowed man and he wants to see his grandkids.
49:35Then I was like, I was like, oh, I feel bad now. Yeah, so every now and then we do have to set a deer toaster straight. Because we usually try to take the side of the girl. If you're writing into deer toasters, you're always right. Yeah. Every now and then we get hit with something like this. Like your poor widowed father-in-law just using his dead wife's phone so he can see pictures of your grandkids. Girl, accept the fucking friend request. Like seriously, how evil are you? And unless you're posting pictures of you and your bikinis and your girlfriend's girl strips. I think if you're just posting pictures of the kids and his son and stuff, I think it's sweet and he wants to see that.
50:04I completely agree. Can I try on your beret? Yeah, I'd be honored. I thought you'd never ask you don't have a license that was a gift no I don't have it yet which side right or left I think it's a woman's own choice I think that side looks better on you okay whatever side you're part is that your where do you part your hair do you go that way okay yeah I don't look French I look like I'm delivering newspapers my whole tits are out no one even said anything okay wait I'm like really struggling okay okay how's that I love this set how do I look it's very chic is it no you look like you should be going to the Christmas spooktacular the tree lighting can you get me right into the tree lighting do any toasters work at the tree lighting can i say i've literally never looked more gorgeous i know now in i'm looking at the monitor i come in every color next time i go to paris i'll get you on oh is this straight from paris yes i don't have an imposter okay like i just like can't really keep it on it's like hard i have i have a harry josh pen you can use now okay like in the camera it looks really stupid but i just want to say in the pictures that i'm taking it looks amazing And look at these curtains.
51:03Can I have these curtains? You'll have to talk to Chris. That's really gorgeous. And what materials that made of? It's cashmere. Really? Where'd you buy it? No, my boyfriend got it for me. He was like, when I got to when I landed, he had this as a surprise for me. Can we talk about your boyfriend? Yes, we'd be honored. He's been coming up on my TikTok, so I've been like stalking a lot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Stop. How did you guys meet? We met. It was after we had, I was at a work party for Barstool and we had this, we had this like Christmas, was it Christmas? Oh, summertime. time it was the end of like summer party for um we had mr purple on the rooftop this is where I were aging myself um and then after we went to some bars we was bar hopping on the bowery and I just I walked and oh we had we rented the bar out sort of like the back room for whatever and I walk in and now I'm tipsy and I'm feeling myself and I just saw he was the first person I saw when I walked in there and I was like you know I I have no shame so I said to him I made a pass to them walking in.
51:56What'd you say? I said, yo, you got a fat ass. So romantic. Like, it's insane. And then we started, you know, then we started flirting throughout the night and stuff. And then, yeah, then we just kind of met and started hanging out. That's really beautiful. Yeah. And another question for you, and the toasters were really mad at me for the last couple of times not asking you this. Oh, my God. What's the tea that you don't, Pat, don't follow each other on Instagram anymore? The tea is I never followed him to begin with. Oh. So I didn't. Okay. So there's no tea. So it was always like, it was always like, we always had like, Like at the beginning, I always had like that like rivalry thing with him.
52:25So it was a joke at the beginning that I didn't follow him. Got it. And then once you left, you didn't feel the need to follow, to keep up. No. What do you think about Out and About still going on without you? Oh, is it? Yes. Oh, good. And what do you think about that? I think it's great. Yeah. Get it, girl. I saw Kathy Griffin was on. Oh, that's nice. Yeah. She was also on the Good Guys podcast. I saw that. I did see that. You know, good. Keep it up, girl. Keep it up. Yeah. Now what's new for Joey? I hear you have a brand deal launching today. I'm not allowed to speak of it. Oh, you're not? Oh, I am allowed to speak of it, but you're not allowing me to speak of it.

Yeah, they have like the fake GLP one. It's like a, like a nature's. I had that before. It's pargy. Yeah, I didn't get that one in the mail. I already have that in my draw. The sleeping ones, I took two last night. Oh, those sleeping ones? They taste so good. I want to eat more, but I'll get in trouble. What does Joey keep in his nightstand? Oh, I can tell you. Yeah. I have my Aquaphor stick. Of course. Oh, the stick. I like the stick.
53:56Okay, so I have the stick also on my nightstand right now. It's not my favorite. What is your favorite? I like to squeeze it out of the little tube. I put too much on then. Not the tiny tube. Yeah, of course. Nothing comes out on the stick. You rub it onto your eyes like this? I don't. You have to put it onto your eyes. Oh, really? Oh, it plumps. Really? Yes. Okay, I'll do it.

Go to the real one. Make a real Paris burn. You should. I want to. I only have 45 ,000 miles left, though. You need a state-sponsored visit. Like the Parisian Board of Tourism. That's what I want to do. Yeah. That's what I need to do. I'm trying to get over there and do that. Right. I love that journey for you. Or if someone wants to give me my own travel show.

It's your second home. Thank you for your candor, for your love, for your time, for your devotion. And thank you guys for listening to the toast. 11.58 Uhr. Mittagspause. Dein Magen knurrt lauter als der Bürohund. Und dann ploppt der Chat auf. Kantine? Wie immer? Wenig später blickst du auf die wie immer mickrige Portion. And think you just, we should go to Maccas. For the Big McDonald's hunger, try the new Big Gouda and the Big Tasty Red Steakhouse with 100 % Rindfleisch from Germany.
57:17So long the food is enough, not to our breakfast.
