7:19Jackie Oshry:I like to go home.

7:22Claudia Oshry:Quit while you're ahead.

7:23Jackie Oshry:No. Well, of course. Leave on a high. Yes, as well. I like to go home like before the weekend because I know most people will be like, why don't you stay in the weekend? Because then I get to like truly recover. by the time Monday rolls around like I'm when I get back somewhere on a Sunday night stressful that whole week is just shot it's stressful yeah no it's not always stressful like I perform best like when I'm truly settled when all my clothes are put away everything's been washed all my packages are open and I need three days to do that so yeah it's weird that like I would go home before the weekend is over but I'm just I'm not like other girls I've been trying to tell you

7:51Claudia Oshry:guys this yeah no I think we know you think I do I do think we know that like I like beer do you No. No.

7:59Jackie Oshry:And I really can't hang out with other women. That is true. Just your sisters. That is true. I'm just like, I don't know, I just love beer. You're so nice. And like sometimes, don't you just like, sometimes you just want to like have a hot dog and some beer? I love a hot dog. That's true. You don't even. No. Fun fact about me, I've never even taken a bite of a hot dog. You're so good. I fear that if I had taken a bite of it, like I would like it. It's just meat between bread. Twixt. Yeah, like a hamburger. I actually, I don't know if you would. It's like an acquired taste.

8:28Claudia Oshry:Yeah. And it's like not in your buckets of taste. But like kids love it, which is in my buckets of taste. You know what you would love? Kielbasa. Ben loves fucking kielbasa. He bought some kielbasa. It's like still in my fridge. He buys kielbasa and leaves it in everyone's fridge. Yeah. It's always something.

8:41Jackie Oshry:He always has like dreams of making kielbasa. Do you not think it's crazy that I've never had even a bite of a hot dog? Like even like a mini weenie when they like serve it at weddings and stuff. I eat the bread. Yeah.

8:51Claudia Oshry:Not the weenie. No, that is more like Congress with who you are than if you eat the hot dog.

8:55Jackie Oshry:But it's crazy that kids, like young Sheldon, he's always eating hot dogs and spaghetti. Like kids love hot dogs. Hot dogs and spaghetti. So you think it's like a kid-friendly dish. Therefore, air to... Turdy. Air to four. I would like it. Perhaps.

9:07Claudia Oshry:Do you like applesauce?

9:09Jackie Oshry:Yeah.

9:10Claudia Oshry:Oh, I don't know. That's a kid-friendly dish. Who doesn't like applesauce? It's a little weird.

9:14Jackie Oshry:Oh, wow. Really?

9:15Claudia Oshry:I actually like it as a condiment.

9:17Jackie Oshry:Well, let me say this. I like applesauce, of course, like from a jar. But these days, I'm like making my own. Right. Does not hit the same. Fresh applesauce. Yuck.

9:24Claudia Oshry:like where's the sugar yeah but it's still it's still decent yeah yolito yolito my friend

9:32Jackie Oshry:we said yolito last night we had yolito mi amiga i was telling her you know what i realized when she always says yolito and when i'm asking her a parenting question so i guess like yolito is her parenting philosophy which just track with like what i think what like she is like as a mom because i was like you know we're getting to this phase where like all the progress we've made with food like ruby's not eating anything and he doesn't eat unless you put a blueberry in front of him he only wants to eat blueberries i'm like is that bad olivia was like yolito well what i would say

10:21Jackie Oshry:not worried about the other parts of the food pyramid. Does food pyramid still like apply?

10:24Claudia Oshry:Yes, it still applies. And, you know, always, always give it. But then that means you have to make it just for it to throw on the ground and Bruno to eat it. Literally. Yeah.

18:53Claudia Oshry:Thank you, Tortor. You're welcome, my daughter. Our first story in order of no importance, I would say. First Storter? My first order. Florida Georgia Line reunited at CMA Fest last night. Oh, you're kidding. Oh, if you didn't watch our sister's story. No, I didn't. I went to that so early. She had the minute-by-minute update. Oh, shit. So CMA Fest was last night. Star-studded lineup. CMA Fest is like a huge country music festival that takes place like all over Nashville. But then at night. There's like one big festival lineup. It's all aired on television. It's really made for TV.

19:24Jackie Oshry:They do an ABC special like in a few months.

19:26Claudia Oshry:But Florida Georgia Line reunited, hugging, sang two songs.

19:31Jackie Oshry:That's like a really big deal.

19:32Claudia Oshry:It is a really big deal. Margot was like making me aware of how big of a deal it was. Whereas I don't know if I would have like realized if not for a story. She said the stadium was jumping.

19:40Jackie Oshry:Well, we forget now because so much has happened in the world and especially in country music that like these two, when they were. There was nothing bigger. There was nothing bigger in music, not even in country. They had transcended genres. They were so big. I would say they were just as big as like right now, like Morgan Wallen is. I agree. They were fucking huge. And every song was like a years long hit. If it's meant to be, it'll be. Cruz? Baby, you a song. You make me want to roll my windows down. I feel like that was like the biggest song of the decade. Did they do Holy? Or is that Justin Bieber?

20:13Jackie Oshry:Or is that Justin Bieber?

20:15Claudia Oshry:No, it's Justin Bieber. It's them. It's them.

20:18Jackie Oshry:Who? Holy. You're Holy. That's Flaherty, Georgia. like insane fucking records so this is a really big deal i don't want to be negative it does feel too little too late like sorry that you two like couldn't get along enough i they they are like swear they keep politics they keep doing press that like because the rumor was that like one was maga and one was lib and like the wives couldn't get along they both thought each other was disgusting like so it was actually so disappointing that like politics came between them they have since gone on to do press saying that like it's not that rumor is completely false I don't believe that.

20:51Jackie Oshry:I'm sorry, you can't convince me. Sorry, I don't,

20:52Claudia Oshry:like maybe there was something additionally that happened and you're like not lying in that moment because you're talking about the additional thing but you guys don't like each other to your core. Not the men, I don't think. I think it's a situation where it's like the men would have been fine but their wives hated each other. You know what it reminds me of? Taylor and Tommy. Like the tennis players, like boyfriends were friends before and then the girls came and they couldn't be friends anymore. And they couldn't be friends anymore but they would have liked to be friends and they didn't have an issue with each other but like the wives couldn't get along.

21:16Jackie Oshry:I also think that they both went out and did solo work one of them more as a songwriter Brian from Brian Kelly is the same from what's who's the one with long hair he was one who like wrote all the songs and Tyler was one who sang all the songs so they really were a perfect duo because then Tyler went out to like to have his own solo career and like okay and then Brian I'm sure like continued to write music but like they kind of they're one half each of a whole partnership so neither one of them had like insane killer solo careers and I think that they both thought like they were so big that they could go on to do anything and that was not the case I'm curious.

21:49Jackie Oshry:I don't think they can like pick back up where they left off. It's been like five years.

21:52Claudia Oshry:I think that the music would speak for itself. Like if they want to produce a song like Cruise or Holy, like I'm listening. This is so crazy. Like if the music is great, we're back. Absolutely. And I think there's no reason why it can't be. Yeah. They looked happy to be together. It like didn't seem awkward. Good. It looks like they like missed the fans and like the spotlight.

22:12Jackie Oshry:They left a gaping hole like in country music, especially in like the CMA ACM award circuit. like every year was like best duo were group best duo or group like dan and shay is feeling sad today oh yeah because they were like working on a comeback they did you see they released this like big statement like about how like like they're coming back i didn't know they left they

22:28Claudia Oshry:did they've been enjoying these last five years yeah no and they were like they coast but like

22:32Jackie Oshry:they were also a huge duo and i think they were working on getting themselves back to where they once were okay and now florida georgeline has entered the conversation so it's seriously battle of the duos and like brothers osborne but the thing about brothers osborne is like they're consistent.

22:46Claudia Oshry:They never left us. Are they a duo or a band? Two brothers. Duo. They get nominated for best duo? It's the same category. It's like best duo group. Maddie and Tay. Shout out to Maddie and Tay. Yeah, and they always get like the token nominee even though I believe that they are so talented. You know, I think Maddie and Tay are separating.

23:05Jackie Oshry:I think I saw that.

23:06Claudia Oshry:I don't want to talk about this anymore.

23:07Jackie Oshry:It's too upsetting. That's why you couldn't only work with family. Can you get out for praying so hard? Can you go blind from crying in the dark? was it ever really real if he don't feel like I feel.

23:20Claudia Oshry:That's why you should only work with family. Look at the Jonas Brothers. They can't quit each other.

23:24Jackie Oshry:I wish they would. No, I'm kidding. Like, one thing about me, like, I'm a Jonas Brothers troll. Like, I always make fun of them, but I love them. You're their number one fan. But I'm their number one fan. That's like, but that is a troll. It's true. And like, you're keeping them in business. It's like a lot of love. No, and interest.

23:38Claudia Oshry:Yeah. And you're keeping them in business. Yeah. Much like trolls do.

23:41Jackie Oshry:You know, the Hey Jonas podcast, which we did, like, deeply clown on,

23:44Claudia Oshry:has been making a little bit of news. It's been making headlines. I actually want to read some of them to you because it's like, this is why, this is like what happens when you start a podcast. Like a corny iHeartRadio podcast. These are the headlines that emerge. Kevin Jonas reveals Michael Bublé is on his sex playlist.

24:00Jackie Oshry:Okay, this is weird. Like, I feel like Kevin has sort of like a stellar reputation and like the podcast is now hurting him. Yeah.

24:07Claudia Oshry:And then Jonas - This is not the type of shit you talk about with your brothers, like your siblings. No, and like, there are some people who should share what's on their sex playlist. And there are some people who shouldn't.

24:18Jackie Oshry:Right. And the thing we love about Kevin Jonas is like, is his stability. He is that father figure. He never left us. He always lives in New Jersey. Like, this is disappointing. What are the other headlines? I saw that Joe...

24:28Claudia Oshry:Joe Jonas says his kids have given him purpose again as he praises co-parenting with his ex, Sophie Turner.

24:33Jackie Oshry:Well, I didn't see him praising co-parenting. I just saw him saying that like, you know, he has to leave a lot. People Magazine put a nice spin on it. Yeah, they did. What he said, which was like a nice thing, is like he works really hard. They leave a lot. They tour a lot. and it makes it easier to do that when you know like you're working for your kids like for your kids to have a better life and so like when he gets home and like gets a hug the world's problems just melt away which was like sweet he also just did like he was starting the sentence like just saying like he is a what he was trying to say was that like he's divorced and has his kids alone sometimes so he was like i'm a single parent which i feel like calling yourself a single parent when like the other parent is alive and in the picture yeah um is a weird thing to say so he said i'm a single parent and I co-parent so you're not a single parent because you have a co-parent yeah

25:13Claudia Oshry:I don't know what the linguistic correctness is because like unless the other person has zero custody or like zero involvement minimal let's say minimal custody actually what if they just have like supervised weekend visitation you're still a single parent yeah but if you're 50 50 custody is that called single parent like I'm not going to say yes or no because we're I don't know I think like you can say it, but it's misleading. But for those people who are in these situations, like, please let us know, like, what is considered single parenting?

25:43Jackie Oshry:So he said, I'm a single dad. He said, I'm a single dad. And I co-parent with, I didn't know if he was going to say Sophie, my ex-wife, my children's mother. Yeah, it was like a really like intentional way of saying it. That's really crazy. I think that there's a lot that goes on. But he is a single, comma, dad. A single person who's also a dad. He's actually not single. he's in a relationship I think that there's a lot that goes on between him and Sophie like that

26:08Claudia Oshry:I would imagine they have like two young children they're in each other's lives all the time yeah especially if they're co-parenting that means like drop-offs every other day yeah that's a lot of seeing one another yeah I don't think it's it's like out of sight out of mind so Florida George line so Florida George line reunited and I'm I'm interested to see what

26:26Jackie Oshry:happens next yeah like it's hard to get back to the place where like you're at that level where like every song was like, you know, the middle by Zedd, like the biggest hits of the year. That's a hard place. They left. They left.

26:36Claudia Oshry:I think that the culture is ready for it because country music is having a moment. It's not like people have moved on.

26:43Jackie Oshry:No, a lot of artists are like migrating to country.

26:45Claudia Oshry:And like a lot of the biggest songs on the charts right now are country like Shabuzi and Ella Langley and Morgan Lallon and Luke Combs. So like everyone's all ears. We're open. Yeah. All ears to country. You know what they say about those rising tides? They raise all of the shides. Our next story is a perfect segue because Taylor Swift's new song for Tour Story 5 just dropped. I Knew It, I Knew You. It is a country music song. Did you listen this morning? I did. It sounds like right off of folklore. It sounds like Betty.

27:14Jackie Oshry:Oh, I think it sounds off of debut. Oh, no. It sounds like very acoustic like that. And it is a Jack Antonoff production, of course. She released this like long Instagram caption all about it.

27:25Claudia Oshry:Let me tell you when I woke up this morning, it was the first thing I thought about. like the songs here.

27:28Jackie Oshry:But that's so funny.

27:29Claudia Oshry:I had no idea. I was scrolling TikTok. And I was like, why? I was really trying to like identify like, why is this top of mind for me? It's exciting. I guess it is exciting because it's like another song that I can add to the list of like, they think they're listening to Toy Story and I get to listen to Taylor Swift. Exactly.

27:43Jackie Oshry:I had no idea. I'm scrolling TikTok. Someone's using it in a TikTok. I'm like, no, how'd you get the song?

27:48Claudia Oshry:It's out. So this is what Lurd said about the song, which I listened to once. And it was like giving classic like Taylor, like RG guitar. For me, it's like when you hear Tim McGraw. That's like where I was taken to, but you were taken to. Betty. Folklore. But it's very country. She said writing this, and she posted a video of her dressed up as Jessie. When she was a young girl. She said writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. That makes sense. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a Toy Story kid from the age of five till now was an adventure I planned to be on, to infinity and beyond.

28:21Claudia Oshry:And that sounds like a pregnancy announcement, like not to be toxic. Oh, I'm cracking up. I just thought she didn't know how to end the statement without being like, I love watching Toy Story today.

28:31Jackie Oshry:She's going to be watching Toy Story forever. Why?

28:35Claudia Oshry:Well, she already told us she wants a family on this list. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this to me sounds like I want a family, which we knew. Yeah, of course, of course. Thank you to the brilliant Andrews. I guess she didn't have to include that line. I definitely like I'm just looking for it. And people read into everything.

28:47Jackie Oshry:Yeah, these days I'm looking into things of this nature as a mother myself. So yeah, that's where my mind went. Sorry, I'm toxic.

28:54Claudia Oshry:Thank you to the brilliant Andrew Stanton for imagining me for this all those years ago when you wrote this newest film. Thank you to the incomparable Randy Newman for the gorgeous sonic tapestry of songs and scores you've meticulously woven over the years. Yes, he has. She loves to meticulously weave. You created the Toy Story musical world and we are lucky to get to live in it. By we, I mean myself and my pal Jack Antonoff, so they are not beefing even though I think that they are. We wrote this with so much adoration for these characters that made us laugh and helped us learn lessons and think outside the backyard all throughout our childhoods.

29:23Claudia Oshry:I Knew It, I Knew You from Toy Story 5 available now. Park J, it was like a good song. I obviously need to listen to it more. I need to listen to it more too. It was just like a lot of poop on now. You know, now it's here. I can't tell you yet what I think. And we were so excited and now we know how it feels for it to be here.

29:42Jackie Oshry:It's such an amazing feeling.

29:43Claudia Oshry:Except I don't know how it feels yet on this one because I need to listen to it more. I'm excited to be in the car with the kids and be like, do you guys want to hear a new Toy Story song? Jesse wrote a song like thanks Lurd yeah thanks Lurd that's like you know life is a highway it means everything to me right because it's technically Lightning McLean it's Lightning McLean and when he did the version with Lizzie Hale that's Mater yeah and that song goes platinum in my car Matter no I think it's Mater you said Matter I always say Matter but it's Mater but it's Mater beautiful I've tried to like fix myself my pronunciations have gotten so crazy the other day I was reading something like the way I read something out loud or in a book in someone's caption okay it's like in your brain you were reading in my brain I was reading it and my brain went to pronounce the word m-e-n-u as menu and I don't think that's a problem per se I think it really speaks to how you

30:41Jackie Oshry:meticulously weave all imagine like you're just bursting with imagination me new me new

30:50Claudia Oshry:and like who says it's not who says who says who you know what i was gonna say who says you're not

30:58Jackie Oshry:perfect no mine's better who says who you know i wanted to tell you something when we were talking earlier in the week about other songs taylor has written for by the way the list goes on and on now let's just go on we completely forgot our favorite movie ever the had a montana movie she wrote crazier and you'll always find your way back home like two of the most important songs on that soundtrack. Her track record when it comes to like writing songs for soundtracks is impeccable.

31:21Claudia Oshry:No, and like this isn't her big one where she's trying to get an Oscar. Like she's been doing that for years.

31:25Jackie Oshry:And there was one more that I forgot was, oh, Today Was a Fairy Tale is from Valentine's Day.

31:31Claudia Oshry:Insane. And I'm sure there's actually more that like we, that we're not even thinking of. It sounds like she comes out with like a song a year for a movie.

31:36Jackie Oshry:Keep your eyes open. That's also Hunger Games with Save and Sound. Save and Sound. But nothing is better than are you are you sweeter than fiction is also a soundtrack song i don't know what movie it's from but your eyes wider than distance this life is sweeter than fiction from some random movie yeah

31:59Claudia Oshry:okay well enjoy toy story i knew it i knew you and i did know it and i do know you it's true are you ready for our next story number three yeah elmo is getting dragged as he motherfucking And should. As his NBA, for his NBA neutrality. So Elmo's neutral NBA finals post causes chaos with Knicks fans. So Elmo's official Twitter account, which is actually like a very controversial place. It is.

32:25Jackie Oshry:There's always drama.

32:26Claudia Oshry:Yeah. And whoever runs it, like, isn't running it well. No, and remember when they started like posting, like, I love Adolf Hitler. Oh my God. Yes. And I love how this gets more outrage. Than Hitler. Than when Elmo went on an anti-Semitic tirade. Yeah, that was really like low-key crazy of Elmo. So whoever has the password to Elmo's Twitter, like he's not doing a good job. So Elmo's official Twitter account wrote regarding the NBA finals. He said, Elmo hopes both teams have fun.

32:55Jackie Oshry:Which would have been like cutesy and fun. Like, you know, we're supposed to be teaching kids sportsmanship, but we're also supposed to be teaching kids about pride. And where the fuck is Elmo from? Astoria, motherfucker. Like your team is literally playing and you're rooting for both teams. He's like, okay, yeah, we need to teach kids sportsmanship. But what about teaching kids about community? What about teaching kids about, like, having pride for your hometown? He's getting dragged, and rightfully so. Like, seriously, cancel Elmo. Yeah, they're saying Elmo.

33:23Claudia Oshry:Elmo is over party. Elmo, you're from the city. Pick a side, man. Erica Adams got involved. Oh, yeah, he posted a meme, bro. Elmo, I don't think you understand what's at stake here. No, it's true. And it's like, this is a historic moment for your fucking city.

33:35Jackie Oshry:You think Sesame Street is, it's in fucking New York City. You think he just fell out of a coconut tree? Exactly. No. He lives in the context of all in which that came before him.

33:44Claudia Oshry:And he's ignoring that context. It is. Like, you didn't even have to say anything. It's true.

33:49Jackie Oshry:But here you are, like, disgracing your city. And how do you think this makes Jalen Brunson feel?

33:52Claudia Oshry:Yeah, he did it all for Elmo.

33:54Jackie Oshry:So Jalen Brunson was asked in a press conference, you know, like, the back, the last, last row in MSG, tickets are going for$7 ,500. What would you, what show would you want to see that, like, what would you pay$7 ,500 for? And he thought about it for a really long time. And then he was like a live Michael Jackson show. And it's just crazy to me. Like Michael Jackson. Do you know what I mean? I know. I know he's like the greatest performer of all time. But like he also did that shit.

34:19Claudia Oshry:Let me tell you something. Jalen Brunson could say anything. He could say a live Adolf Hitler. No, he's never. His wife is Jewish. He could say a live Adolf Hitler speech. And people would love it. In this moment. Yeah. What are you going to do? Take him off the team? No, I know.

34:33Jackie Oshry:And it just makes me think about, like, people just really can't quit Michael Jackson. Like, he's in the culture a lot right now because of the movie. And while I don't think the movie was, like, an enormous success, people weren't, like, boycotting it or anything.

34:46Claudia Oshry:No, and it wasn't a flop. It wasn't, like, Snow White. No, people who saw it loved it. They got dressed up.

34:51Jackie Oshry:Like, people can quit Michael Jackson. I never really, like, started. So, like, it was not easy. I didn't have to quit. I haven't quit.

35:00Claudia Oshry:I listen sometimes. Yeah, I guess a little. Yeah, I guess a little. Which one? Black or White and Rockin' Robin. No, like the shit's good for sure. No, it's so good. Yeah. And then like, am I supposed to quit Jackson 5 as well?

35:15Jackie Oshry:No. Why should the other members be punished? Like I've got to teach my kids the ABCs. It's true. ABCs is such a good song. They're all really good. Wow, okay. So you're just separating the art from the artist.

35:25Claudia Oshry:Yeah, I think so. I don't think about it too hard. And if I do, like I wouldn't. You would stop. Yeah. Yeah. But I just don't really think about it. Okay. Yeah. I guess that sort of happened like slowly, you know? Okay. I just had a couple of songs stuck in my head and like the only way to get them out is like listen to them. Stream. Yeah. Support. Do you know that? Like when you have something stuck in your head, you have to listen to it to get it out in order to move on from it. So. Yeah. That's what I did. Okay. Wow. I got stuck. Sort of like my number one hardest of the year.

35:58Jackie Oshry:I'm scared of your Spotify wrapped. My number one artist of the year is 100 % going to be Charlie Hope. She can come on namesake. Charlie. You know Charlie Hope? Yes. She just does all those kids songs. Over the meadow in the sand and the sun. Lived in old mother turtle and her little turtle won. The thing is, all those kids songs are just insufferable. The ones you have to do, wheels on the bus. And she just puts a little bony ver. She has a really sweet little voice. She has her little guitar. And she makes it really sort of aesthetic. so much to the point where you don't know that you're 100 % listening to those dreadful songs.

36:32Jackie Oshry:And then she has her own hits, Over in the Meadow. I love the mountains. And then my favorite. I love the rolling hills. I love the flowers. I love the daffodils. And then her best song is. And the green grass grew all around, all around. And the green grass grew all around. Like, it's like Charlie Hope, thank you for, like, not being insufferable.

36:53Claudia Oshry:Yeah.

36:54Jackie Oshry:She's going to be my number one artist of the year, like, 100%. And Imogen Heap.

36:57Claudia Oshry:Yeah.

36:58Jackie Oshry:Although I do think I took Imogen Heap out of my, like you can block someone from your data. Oh, interesting. Because we have that song on the loop.

37:03Claudia Oshry:I feel like that song is blocked on everybody's Spotify data. It should be. Because it never came up when I listened to it all year for Charlie. Charlie. Oh, I also meant to say about Namesake, guess what came through?

37:18Jackie Oshry:About Namesake, guess what came through? I don't know. My POV gifting. Okay, you have to film a huge review for TikTok. I mean for TikTok for Patreon

37:29Claudia Oshry:okay I will it's all like makeup primer right? yeah so it's skincare but it's not skincare

44:05Claudia Oshry:Our next story, Alex Earle is going to be starring in the next Benson Boone music video.

44:11Jackie Oshry:Oh, yeah. We were just talking about music videos and how it's kind of a necessary step for all it girls. I'm surprised Alex Earle hasn't been in one already.

44:19Claudia Oshry:She might have, but maybe not the one that she needs. And I just want to say - Her blurred lines moment.

44:25Jackie Oshry:Yeah, right. Because I think that influencers get tapped a lot for music videos, especially female male music videos with like lots of girls and like girl gang. I'm sorry. I'm not talking about that. Like this, there's a very specific music video girl archetype that I'm talking about. It has to be a male artist. Sorry. And the influencer has to be like one of one influencer in the music video, not like a big group of influencers. And she has to be like the romantic lead love interest. And the song has to be amazing. Okay. Wow. That's a lot of pressure.

44:51Claudia Oshry:Yeah. So the song is called the time of my life. Has it come out yet? I don't know. Like this is such a slay on Benson Boone's part.

44:57Jackie Oshry:Benson has amazing songs. He does. They used one of his songs in Love Island last night. Moonbeam ice cream, taking off your blue jeans, dancing to the movies, because it feels so mystical, magical.

45:11Claudia Oshry:And then he also, they used another one, Mr. Electric Blue. He's a madman. And another one.

45:18Jackie Oshry:A good, hard-working American. People clown on him, but he kept his head down, and he keeps just, like, churning out the hits. And I think he gets clowned on a lot because he makes what people call, like, grocery store music. I don't clown on him. And I just want to say I like grocery store music because it's good.

45:32Claudia Oshry:Like if you like Michael Jackson, try Benson Boone.

45:35Jackie Oshry:It's true. No, if you like Freddie Mercury, I think it's like more so what he emulates. Like I think it's similar. Sparkly jumpsuits and like the mustache. It's a little on the nose. Borderlines on like being like a Vegas impersonator. Yeah, but it's like if it ain't broke, don't fix it. And I just want to say. Like Mark Zuckerberg came really close to ruining Benson Boone.

45:55Claudia Oshry:There is like an association that I can't untangle. I can't untangle.

45:58Jackie Oshry:Benson Boone, I guess like Mark Zuckerberg is a really... Benson Boone, Wicked Witch. Madame Marvel. Wes Wilson, Garrett Graham. I love this, by the way. Benson Boone, I guess Mark Zuckerberg is like a huge fan. I had him perform at a birthday party and then he had this iconic jumpsuit that Mark Zuckerberg then put on and did a flip. And I just don't want to share a favorite artist with Mark Zuckerberg. I just know in my bones Mark Zuckerberg is a big time loser. And I just don't want to have anything in common with him. We kind of don't. I'm good.

46:28Claudia Oshry:Yeah, I just hope like whatever amount Benson got paid, it was worth it for like the knocks to his reputation that it did. Now, he will come back from it. And I'm a big fan of his, but there is an association that I can't untangle. The more hits that come out, the more time that goes by. It's better. Yeah. This music video helps. This is good. But like it definitely like took him down a road that he wasn't meant to go down. So I hope it was millions of dollars. So I don't know if you saw Niall Horan's on The Voice.

46:57Jackie Oshry:Platypus. What's it called? therapists. Therapists. And Jake was like, you know you performed at my friend's bat mitzvah. And I have to assume he's talking about his friend Alice Grange, who's Elliot Grange's sister, whose dad is like universal world music. Yeah, like... Why do you assume it's her? Because who else would have... Did Niall Horne perform at her bat mitzvah? Yeah, One Direction did. Oh. And I'm trying to think, like, who else would it be? And he was like, well, we only did one bat mitzvah, so I know who you're talking about. And it was in London. Like, it was definitely... Oh, yeah, And they're Lundish.

47:28Jackie Oshry:Yeah, it was definitely. And he was like, wait, what? And he was like, well, we only performed at one moment. So it was so fun. They definitely got paid so much. It was such a hilarious. I wonder, I don't think Jake was there because I think they met like later in life. I wonder how much they got paid. Yeah. Maybe 5 million, a million each. A million each. Yeah. Well, maybe at the time it was when there were only four. Zane left. So it was only 4 million.

47:48Claudia Oshry:And they got them at a discount.

47:51Jackie Oshry:It was seriously hilarious. Like the way Jake said it, he was like, you know, you're a friend of my friend's mom. It's hot. and Niall like knew what he was talking about immediately because it was literally only one I didn't know that 1D had ever done that getting one direction to perform at your bas mitzvah

48:04Claudia Oshry:yeah because like a lot of people get performers for their weddings or bat mitzvah but it's not

48:08Jackie Oshry:really someone I want to like hear from yeah I see sometimes on tiktok like they get um like it goes viral like you know like a the performer performed it it's like no I like I never wish I

48:17Claudia Oshry:was there no but like I wish I was there for Bobby and Caitlin's performance from Rascal flats yes that bobby bones like wrestle flats sing um fast cars and freedom like if i am having a performer at my wedding i want it to be like one of the five artists that i love not i don't want to shade an artist but like not a random individual who are you thinking like like i don't know people just get the most random people and they think it's cool that they had a performer just because i'm like i would had a performer but i would rather hear the dj play my favorite thousand percent the original no or just my favorite song by my favorite artist you know like the itunes version the original version but not even like would this person's song even play at this party right if they weren't the performer right so like i think it should really be like very carefully chosen yeah that's like harry and megan had ellie goulding perform that's who you would choose that's amongst who i would choose yeah rascal fatz ellie goulding of course kelly clarkson beyonce like famously performed at like a huge one of those indian billionaire weddings rihanna

49:14Jackie Oshry:as well rihanna as well um andrea bocelli is a classic taylor has performed at like only the weddings of her friends like in like an acoustic very chill way would you want taylor to perform at your wedding like obviously yeah i don't even know why i was pretending it's not a trick question well maybe like the attention would be taken yeah shut up um yeah of course yeah there again there i agree with you like there are a couple of people whom but i'm also like shallow like a performer's a performer oh really whoever we can get whoever fits the budget like yeah

49:42Claudia Oshry:i'll take you don't want it someone like i'm trying to think you i don't know why i just like don't be like throwing someone yeah i'll take ben platt and i would take ben platt well

49:53Jackie Oshry:that would be an amazing performance he would just have to sing behind a curtain like we don't want to see you but we want to hear you he would be amazing i know and he has like a really beautiful

50:00Claudia Oshry:song yeah grow as we go yeah but it's like it's never that sort of performer like it's no i know it's always just like i know what you're saying like someone like and it's always someone like viral like an like a like a tiktok song like someone like so 20 years ago oh i love that so um who's performing what where'd we get here alex earl benson boone he performed at mark zuckerberg's but anyways yes if i'm mark zuckerberg benson boone fits the bill yeah uh so i'm excited for the music video yeah me too our fifth and final story is tpn

50:33Jackie Oshry:oh my god okay i forgot that this was like i was waiting for this

50:36Claudia Oshry:anna faris is sharing the celebrity who finally greenlit the movie the house bunny after she pitched the film 24 times. I didn't realize she was like the brains behind it. I thought she was just a star. So Anna Faris was just on a podcast, Happy, Sad, Confused. And she was talking about The House Bunny, her iconic movie where she plays a Playboy bunny who becomes a sorority mother. She said, we pitched that movie 24 times all around LA. And on the 24th time, it was Happy Madison, Adam Sandler's company. Oh, that actually tracks? I didn't know that it was a Happy Madison production. He was like, all right, we didn't even get to pitch him.

51:11Claudia Oshry:She said that he saw her in the waiting room and said, what are you doing here? And she said, I'm here to pitch you a movie. And he said, what's it about? And she said, a Playboy bunny who gets kicked out of the mansion. And he was like, OK, all right, that's pretty funny. And so they walked away and sold it. And she said that was our last chance to get it sold. There was no one else. Like, it was amazing. And then six to eight weeks later, I was on set in L.A. with a crew of like 200 people. Then she went on to say. Wait, like, this is such, like, not that he needs any more, like, good press.

51:36Jackie Oshry:This is like a huge, like, the check in his column. It is.

51:39Claudia Oshry:she went on to say the film was life-changing for her. She said, It was a life-changing role. Fundamentally, career stuff aside, playing a character that had so much compassion and lack of judgment, a character who really led with her heart. It sounds really corny, but I think it made me feel like it was easier to make friends in a weird way. She said, That's simplistic, but I loved playing a character who was not competitive with other people and who was really wonderful. That made me want to lead my life with compliments. It felt like kind of a way to combat jealous feelings. It's actually really true.

52:06Jackie Oshry:like the character you forget like is this like she's like a bombshell obviously but she's like this kind of not airhead but like really just sweet naive young woman who's like never lived in the real world because she always lived in the playboy mansion but like she had butlers and everything done for her and it's nice to hear that anna faris like looks back on the role so fondly and like the whole experience that's always what you want to hear from your faves yeah it's

52:26Claudia Oshry:really true because it's one of our favorite most formative movies it is like first of all i loop

52:31Jackie Oshry:into a genre of like like Sydney White like college like movies set in college towns that like just aren't like vulgar like they really shaped us and it's really I guess they really had like a nice moral of the story which was like be kind and inclusive they're also like

52:45Claudia Oshry:romantic coming of age comedies yes yes romantic coming of age comedies I would say romantic coming of age comedy for sure yeah plus well seen Madame Marvel Benson Boone Garrett Graham there's one Karen Reed

53:01Claudia Oshry:so I thought you would like to hear that

53:02Jackie Oshry:Anna Faris is doing a lot of press because her movie Scream? Scary movie and people a lot of clips of her doing press are getting taken out of context being like she's drunk, it's like you guys don't know Anna Faris, she's quirky as fuck she's an OG podcaster, I don't think there's anything wrong with her honestly, it is though just crazy to imagine there was ever a time where she was married to Chris Pratt like two people who could not be less compatible with one another

53:23Claudia Oshry:no I could see how they got married but I can understand my name is Yeah. So it's always fun to hear from her. It is. She's seriously like such a fave. She's such a queen.

53:34Jackie Oshry:Yeah. She really is. What's my number? Like her rom-com. Her roster. She kind of like picked up the crown where Katherine Heigl left it off. Like she. But then she set it down. Yeah. Didn't want it. As most great like rom-com queens do. Kate Hudson. Like you have to set it down. Yeah. You can't. You can't be like a rom-com star forever. Like there's an era and you have to know when it's time. J-Lo was a rom-com queen. Like let's talk about Love Island. One of the worst episodes. Worst group of people. Like I hate them all. First of all, I don't have like a positive thing to say about one of them.

54:00Jackie Oshry:They all had bad episodes last night. Bea like sitting and coaching Charlie's brother, Zach, into like how to talk to Kenzie.

54:06Claudia Oshry:And pretty much just like smooth talker don't mean anything that you say and just say what she wants to hear so you can get out of this hole. Like that was not a good look for women. No. And I want to say like, I hate to use this phrase, but not a girl's girl. Like that was actually low key evil. That was like sort of like, you know, I'm a guy's girl. I like beer and I'm not like other girls. That's something I always do. I thought that was a really bad look for her. I completely agree. The episode was bad for everyone. I didn't get a chance to like get on Twitter and like gauge perception, but like she should be getting.

54:30Claudia Oshry:Canceled for that. Like hate for that. Like not to send hate. Of course, of course. It's a hateful show where we hate people.

54:35Jackie Oshry:So like that was a bad moment. But also like bad episode for Kenzie. Like you're being so fucking dramatic. Like he was with you for three seconds. He got whisked away. And like that's what the show was about. Like you like refusing to talk to him. You look so immature and stupid.

54:47Claudia Oshry:So I imagine it's partially about the heartbreak, but more so about like, first of all, it's embarrassing that someone like literally looked at you and was like, you're not my type and then moved on and is like so happy to be with someone else like it really is a blow to the self-esteem and like if you're she's also taking what he said out of context he was just saying

55:02Jackie Oshry:like yeah like I think you're so great but like you know I usually don't go for a blonde no I know

55:06Claudia Oshry:but it just like hurts to hear that you're not someone's type and then they've moved on and you're standing there alone it's just and for an emotional girl like that's just like tough and I also think a lot of them are like so scared of being sent home because it's so early the followers haven't popped off yet like if you get sent home at this first ceremony like you did not successfully become an influencer during your time on Love Island that you quit your job for. Yeah. So it's and you know how that island is like a psychological torture chamber and everything just feels like the biggest light.

55:35Claudia Oshry:And so to take like an emotionally fragile person and put them through rejection and jealousy and heartbreak like, yeah, I mean, but to watch it, it's like, are you OK? Are you crazy? It was a bad episode for Melody.

55:47Jackie Oshry:She looked so crazy, but it was also a bad episode for Sincere. Like, first of all, you are not handsome enough to be like playing games like this. Like you're lucky to be with Melanie, the prettiest girl here. So why don't you just sit down? And also him like admitting to cheating. Like that was weird. Okay. It was a bad episode for everyone. Okay.

56:01Claudia Oshry:It was a horrible episode for Melanie. Yes. Oh yeah. That girl is crazy. Crazy. And when she started to say at the beginning of the episode, like I feel like people get sick of me. I'm like, oh no, stop. You're so sweet. And like, she's like a little bit insecure. But she's like, she broke up with herself. She's very off putting. Yeah. She broke up with herself by like insisting that he wants to go and explore. And then she's like rattling off all these curse words. Like, you want to explore up? I'd be Dora fucking explorer. Like, just so crazy. No, and was she talking to Kenzie?

56:28Jackie Oshry:Like, two crazy bitches telling each other? Exactly.

56:30Claudia Oshry:No, and then so rude about Kada and her name. Kada's sitting there listening to you, trying to calm you down and tell you it was not anything. Yeah. And then she goes, she doesn't even know her name. And then she says it wrong. Like, she's nasty. She's insecure. Yeah. It was such an ugly look. And that's what I mean. You could be the prettiest girl there. But when your insides come out, it doesn't matter what you look like. Although, this kind of is what I wanted.

56:50Jackie Oshry:in terms of the girls. Like, I feel like in the last season, it was like the girls never fought. It was like, they were riding for each other so hard, which is like sweet, you know, women supporting women, but that's not really what I want to watch. I want to see like bitches being mean to each other. So like, I do like that there is a little bit of infighting and like, they don't all like sisterhood, like ride for you. That is what I asked for.

57:09Claudia Oshry:So in that sense, no, in that sense, it's fine. But like, in terms of her being able to be in a relationship, like she's going to get nowhere. I also like, don't think sincere did anything wrong. In talking to Kata. First of all, he obviously was attracted to Kata, and he still didn't get off his green spot. So it wasn't like he was just going where his eyes took him. But, okay, things are settling in. It's day two.

57:29Jackie Oshry:They saw the bombshells after they chose red or green.

57:32Claudia Oshry:What do you mean? Oh, they just had the kiss? They only kissed the people that stepped on red. So they came out after. Oh, interesting. Okay, so less of a credit to him. It's day two, though. You are interested in this person. Have a conversation. The conversation was not flirty or a betrayal of Melanie at all. Just getting to know. I know it's painful, but that's literally what we're here to do. And it's day three. If he locks in at day two, like, that is silly. That's what Huda and Jeremiah did, and it was silly. He's done nothing wrong. You have to talk. And then in that challenge, okay, so he texted someone else while he was dating.

58:01Claudia Oshry:While he was dating someone. Okay. Some of the things that people had.

58:05Jackie Oshry:So, very bad episode for Trinity. You gave somebody a blowjob in the car with your mom. Like, that's disgusting, and I look at you differently now. And, like, this group of people is disgusting.

58:14Claudia Oshry:I think that's crazier. Than texting, of course. Than texting. like and also how many people up there have cheated on someone like how many yeah and yeah they're young and immature and like horny individuals like they're not like beacons of morality so and just because like he did that in the past like doesn't mean necessarily that he's gonna do that here with you like you have to give someone the benefit of the doubt when he was like she's putting all this other shit on me it's like he's completely right yeah he has not acted wrong yet no you have to have those conversations she broke up with herself in that conversation and like if I'm him I don't care what you look like I do not want to be a part of this agreed agreed it's like not worth the she spiraled out I was in shock that someone like could actually conduct that themselves that way I know so many people are watching and they know so many people are watching she really thought giving the hood of Mustafa she really thought she was like had the moral authority yes and also you could tell at the end of the challenge well because it's like

59:05Jackie Oshry:all the other girls like gassing her up like Kenzie no no she didn't really need much yeah

59:09Claudia Oshry:right you could tell at the end of the challenge that whatever was read on the last card was going to be sincere because no he hadn't had a car yet yeah so she was listening and everyone was joking is it sincere like everyone was being sarcastic because they knew it was him and she was flipping

59:21Jackie Oshry:out that it was him yeah sorry i'm still stuck on trinity like that i'm stuck like when i when i

59:28Claudia Oshry:think about like the the most like morally big things that happened in the challenge i think

59:34Jackie Oshry:it's that and like the way she like talked about the story after like she was so proud it was seriously disgusting and i just think like the episode was so bad for everyone like i now just my overall opinion of the group is much lower in all regards than it was before I watched last night's episode. Yeah, I agree. Like I hate all of them. And I just want to say I like Gabriel and Kenzie. Oh, and what about Sean and Kenzie? Oh, so Sean and Kenzie, that was insane. Which

1:00:01Claudia Oshry:part?

1:00:02Jackie Oshry:Okay, that they kissed at breakfast? Like, hello?

1:00:04Claudia Oshry:Everyone's acting like they're married. It's been one day. And that's what I mean about like the breakfast and like all this shit and And everyone's like, and it's nice that they're like coupling off and actually like trying to make something happen. But like Kenzie and Sean, like he woke up in the morning, like got into her bed and like, like gave her a kiss and then made her breakfast. And she like kissed him for breakfast. And it's like, that's what you do when you're like actually in a couple.

1:00:23Jackie Oshry:Not to be so prude, but like, I wish like kissing was special. It doesn't mean anything. Yeah, I know. Because like when I saw them kiss, I'm like, wait, I'm like, did I kiss something?

1:00:31Claudia Oshry:Claudia, when I saw them kissing or in the bed together in the morning, I'm like, did he get her in her bed in the middle of the night? I rewound to make sure to see what happened. But no, when they woke up in the morning, he went over to like wish her good morning. Shocking stuff.

1:00:42Jackie Oshry:Like genuinely shocking. And I just like am mad at Bea. She was being like so corny last night. So yeah, I want like, and I think she just thinks she's like really hot shit. Like she is because like Gabriel chose her and he's definitely the hottest guy by a mile. But like, yeah, he should hook up with Kenzie. Just like start some shit. Yeah. So I saw the funniest.

1:01:00Claudia Oshry:Also, it seems like Bea is like with Gabriel, but also stringing Sean along. She was like, I didn't know that that meant that it broke up our couple. Yeah. So I just feel like.

1:01:08Jackie Oshry:I saw the funniest tweet about Gabriel.

1:01:10Claudia Oshry:We had Tangled Web.

1:01:10Jackie Oshry:It's like Gabriel didn't come here for fame. I don't think he knows this is on TV. He came here to fuck. Like he's serious.

1:01:15Claudia Oshry:I saw all these tweets about him. He's cracking me up. I saw people like saying that about him. He's like very erotic. It was like Gabriel's on here. His dick is here.

1:01:27Jackie Oshry:Where are people getting that sense? He's like so sexy. And he is by far the best looking guy. And like he's just making out with people like more so than others. I guess I must have been to, I did a little too much admin. I like missed that part. He's made out with Trinity. He's made out with Bea. He's definitely going to make out with Kenzie. Like, and he just has this like very sexy aura to him. He's a very good looking guy. And people are starting. And it's like the Brazilian, you know, he's speaking Spanish to Bea. Yeah.

1:01:49Claudia Oshry:He's laying it on thick. Yeah. People are starting to say that like they see something brewing between Zach and Trinity.

1:01:55Jackie Oshry:Did you see that? No. I think Zach is so happy to be with Kata. He can't believe he caught one of the prettiest girls in the villa. Okay. And the bombshell. It's like, and I do think the bombshell like vibe wears off eventually. Yeah. Like in the beginning, like you have the new girl and everyone doesn't know her and she's mysterious. Like to be with the bombshell until the next bombshell comes is like a very exciting feeling. Yeah. And she's very pretty. She's so pretty. And she seems nice. Yeah. She was giving like a little bit like schoolyard bully when she was watching the fight across. I know they were being crazy, but she was like narrating the fight.

1:02:23Jackie Oshry:She was being real. Yeah. Yeah. She was.

1:02:25Claudia Oshry:That's what I'm like. When you said, like, I want people to like be mean and honest like that. We're watching a crazy person blow up her relationship for nothing. For no reason. Like I'm sitting here laughing. Yeah. I am. I am. I am. And Kata doesn't even know that she disrespected her. Doesn't know her name, even though she does. Yeah. Yeah.

1:02:39Jackie Oshry:So that's the sort of energy that I am here for. Yeah. And I kind of need Kata to like start fucking with Sincere just to make her crazy.

1:02:47Claudia Oshry:She's like, it was so shocking to see because she seems so like sweet and and like happy with Sincere and like they were the strongest couple and now they're they're the weakest. Seeing Bryce and Trinity. Kenzie and Sean are stronger than them right now.

1:03:00Jackie Oshry:Yeah. seeing Bryce and Trinity like have to like crawl back to one another I love them I know was genuinely hysterical I think everybody loves them yeah and like the thing is there's really no interest from other people to either of them so they really are like stuck with one another so they should just make the best of it and become like you know Molly Mae and Tommy

1:03:18Claudia Oshry:yeah no I think it's like a really cute like origin story yeah and they probably don't realize it but I think a lot of people are rooting for them now yeah it's hysterical

1:03:26Jackie Oshry:so let's dive into our final segment of the week Queenie and Weenie of the Week where Jackie and I just like to sort of wrap up the show, wrap up the week, take a look back at a glance and give out two awards. Queenie of the Week and Weenie of the Week is pretty self-excitatory. If you act like a Queenie this week, you might be nominated for Queenie of the Week. And if you act like a Weenie this week, you might be nominated for Weenie of the Week. It's not that big of a deal. It's a seven-day title. Let's start with Queenie. I think we have similar Queenies. I don't think so. Okay. I took a left turn.

1:03:49Jackie Oshry:Oh, my Queenie is Tyler Cameron.

1:03:50Claudia Oshry:I figured it would be. For just being generous of spirit.

1:03:52Jackie Oshry:Of course. He got this huge opportunity to go to the NBA Finals. You know, he has a girlfriend. like he could have brought anyone and he brought my husband and just very generous of spirit um he posted this really cute video of ben you guys so cute it was so cute and their friendship is so cute do you need a hat he wore the hat to the party tonight and so tyler cameron you are my

1:04:12Claudia Oshry:queenie of the week he is the queenie of the week but i actually have like a historic queenie and i think it's the first time that i can recall of somebody who was previously a weenie wow yeah so a couple weeks ago my weenie was like the SI swimsuit editorial team for the four covers yeah and this week they are my queenie for the runway show yeah and it was huge and that was like the the benchmark of the story of the week it was so cool I'm excited for the hulu show like they crushed it firing in all cylinders and they're the queenies of the week and the former weenies that's really beautiful yeah write it down yeah or someone just may remember yeah

1:04:48Jackie Oshry:my weenie of the week is of course going to be Love Island Coded and there were so many people to choose from unfortunately and I do like him but like he just like there was a moment that was genuinely the definition of being a weenie which was in like Bryce in the Paradise Cove like thought he was going to have a threesome and he got rejected by Kada like I'm sorry I feel bad because like I'm seriously piling on and like it's embarrassing enough to have to like have that moment televised. I feel like he put himself out there like let's make fun of the girl

1:05:15Claudia Oshry:who put herself out there creatively. Yeah, no, that to me, like, wasn't weenie. It was just like.

1:05:18Jackie Oshry:No, sorry, he thought he was having a threesome. Like, that's insane. You think so? Yeah. Because he came in, he was like, can I get a little? Yeah, yeah. Like, that's what you say when you start a threesome.

1:05:26Claudia Oshry:And she was like, oh, no, sorry.

1:05:27Jackie Oshry:You're just here.

1:05:28Claudia Oshry:Oh, my God. Yeah, I can't think about it too hard. It's very upsetting. Like, that's someone's son. Like, it's upsetting. Yeah, there's so many weenies in the village. I know. So many weenie villagers. And so many behind the scenes weenies. Like everyone who's like contributes to this show.

1:05:44Jackie Oshry:It's the most frustrating. It's ripe for weenies. And the unfortunate part is like, I have not seen one queen yet. No one is acting like a queen.

1:05:50Claudia Oshry:No, I don't even know who's going to be like a fan favorite or our favorite. Cause Sean so far. Cause the two won't be the same. Sean is the J of course not. Sean is the Jalen. Yeah. Maybe. Kenzie is the Amaya. I like Sean. I like Sean too.

1:06:03Jackie Oshry:I think he's very genuine and earnest.

1:06:05Claudia Oshry:Yeah. And even though like the mayor's tried to take him down. Weenie of the week. the mayor. I don't know why. I like the fact that the mayor is keeping Sean on his toe. And keeping the force honest. And keeping Sean, I feel like I'm holding him to a high standard. And he's meeting the bar. It's true. As a father and a cop, there actually is a higher standard. And so I'm appreciative to the mayor for highlighting that for me. Because I would have just been like, oh, he's a former cop. I wouldn't have thought about it. It's true. But the mayor has made me realize, okay, he left that behind, which is a radical thing to do.

1:06:34Claudia Oshry:And you're coming on the show, and how are you going to conduct yourself? Right, and you're representing your city, your family and your city. Yeah. And I think he's conducting himself in a very gracious manner. I have no notes.

1:06:42Jackie Oshry:He's the only person I really don't have notes for yet.

1:06:44Claudia Oshry:Maybe a queenie.
