In short

The Toast episode (Sept 10, 2026) is a mix of personal updates and pop-culture news. Topic: hosts prep for Rosh Hashanah hosting (menu planning: brisket Friday, short ribs Saturday; new house logistics like needing a kitchen table and a working stove), then pivot to “major news” about their dog Romeo getting a disastrous haircut by in-laws (ears cut much shorter than expected; photo described as “botched/butchered,” choppy, “hostage/Hamas tunnel” vibes). They also discuss Bruno’s grooming (looks great) and Bruno’s “chicken bone” risk (joking about eventual demise).

Key claims

Harry Styles’ NYC concert ticket artwork is being criticized for using plane imagery near iconic skyline towers on the eve of 9/11’s 25th anniversary; Sydney Sweeney’s naked sports-betting ad for Novig is framed as effective, possibly “feminist”/in on the joke because she’s an investor.

Notable examples

SNL season 52 lineup (Jalen Brunson hosting first episode; musical guests include Cat’s Eye, Billy Joel, Turnstile, Rosalia, Gracie Abrams); Tyler Cameron voice memo about Dancing with the Stars; Novig ad visuals; Starbucks/Weight Watchers/Quince/Haya/Roback/Clear Stem ads.

Guests

And then we're going to come down because I never even tell you guys, but like it's kind of big news for me because you guys know I'm like a renter till I die. But when we were in Florida the last time, like at the end.

7:37Jackie Oshry:During your sabbatical. During my sabbatical. That was December 2025, right? yeah i purchased i made a purchase what did you purchase home owner okay like small place owner um by the beach i obviously like i couldn't really stay with you even though now in your new house like maybe i could have but i felt like my time was running out and like coming to you guys for weeks at a time and like now we need multiple bedrooms like we're just taking up a lot of space ruby's sleeping in the studio like it's not it's not like you're literally recording in Ruby's room.

I feel like I'm like a month away from turning the spigot off like parenthood like things just happen like okay maybe there's different spigots so I'm a month away from turning off the home spigot okay and that's a big one that will be a big one and then I might have to turn off some other spigots like Birkin spigot like because the home spigot drained of course other spigots shall suffer they drain the well yeah and then I wanted to tell you guys something else oh what else could

17:25Claudia Oshry:And Rihanna's in it. In context, it all adds up. Yes, it all comes out in the context. Okay, well, let's get into the Fast Five stories that Yedda do need to know.

17:38Jackie Oshry:FYI, Yedda. Today's episode is brought to you by Smart Mouth. There are enough things to worry about during the day. Having stanky breath should not be one of them. And Smart Mouth takes the worry away. Use it as a part of your morning and nighttime routine for 24 hours of bad breath protection. So Smart Mouth is the only mouthwash that's clinically proven to stop bad breath before it starts and prevent it from coming back. It uses an activated zinc ion technology. Their dual solution formula mixes as you pour it, which activates billions of zinc ions that instantly eliminate bad breath and keep it away all day.

18:05Jackie Oshry:It's backed by science. It's developed by the dentist who literally wrote the encyclopedia section on bad breath. They are a company that is just like very cause driven and that causes eradicating bad breath. And as somebody with like a very keen sense of smell, I'm so sort of inspired by their mission. and I love their products. They have nighttime products, morning products. If there's someone in your life whose breath stanks, like it doesn't have to be that way. And I think a lot of mouthwashes and like oral products mask the bad breath. They don't fix it and like get down to the root source.

18:35Jackie Oshry:And Smart Mouth is just different. You can upgrade to the Smarter Mouthwash. Find Smart Mouth at Walgreens, Walmart, and Amazon or visit smartmouth.com and use code TOAST at checkout to snag a special discount on your first Smart Mouth purchase. that's www.smartmoutch.com you can use code toast so grab yours and experience 24-hour fresh breath for yourself your mouth and the people around you will thank you today's episode is also brought to you by Weight Watchers the last thing you need right now is another thing to manage and so Weight Watchers is designed to fit into real life by turning your daily habits into real weight loss whether you're looking to do weight loss with or without a GLP-1 medication you can do it with Weight Watchers where you can build healthier habits and make smarter nutrition choices and maintain steady, sustainable progress, all with Weight Watchers.

19:17Jackie Oshry:It's kind of a timeless thing, Weight Watchers, and they're very much like in the modern era working with GLP-1 medications, but their program, whether you do it with a medication or without, is timeless. It works. I've done it many times. It's built for real life. If you are postpartum, if you're breastfeeding, they have like multiple programs where if you tell them you're breastfeeding, they'll help you. I used it when I was breastfeeding to maintain my weight because I did not want to gain more weight. And I knew that losing weight probably wasn't an option for me because I was eating so many calories.

19:41Jackie Oshry:I was so hungry. And I didn't actually gain weight while I was breastfeeding, which I was really proud of. So it's a great program, the Core Plus program.

You know, last night at Mahjong, sorry, yesterday at Mahjong, everyone was talking about Quince. Because someone was like, have you guys heard of Quince? We're like, yeah, have you? She's like, oh no, I just figured out. She was like buying stuff for her daughter. So Quince is the key to building a great wardrobe. You know those pieces in your closet that you just find yourself reaching for over and over again. Somehow, you know, a sweater that works with everything, jeans that always fit right, a bag you carry everywhere.

20:41Jackie Oshry:Well, those are the pieces that earn a permanent place in your wardrobe, and that's exactly what Quince does so well. They make elevated everyday essentials by using premium materials like Mongolian cashmere, organic cotton, washable silk. The designs are timeless, thoughtfully crafted, and made to be worn again and again. And the pricing is very fair. So why I love Quince is that they make, like, really high-end, high-quality products, like the same as, like, designer brands, but they price 50 to 80 % less than the similar brands. They work directly with ethical factories. They cut out the middleman and they pass the savings onto the customer.

21:10Jackie Oshry:So you end up just paying for the quality, not like a crazy brand markup. They have premium stretch denim, leather bags. They're always getting into new categories. I've heard people love their suitcases. I like their home stuff. Their baby stuff is amazing. If you're really particular about materials and like what your children wear, it's like very hard to find 100 % cotton stuff these days. Like everything's made of plastic. Quince is a great option. They bring that great high-end approach to everything that they make. So find the fall pieces you'll reach for most at Quince.

So fall means new backpacks, back to school, pumpkin spice, and then of course the dreaded call from the school nurse that you need to pick your kid up early from school. So that's why Haya was created. We're looking, when it comes to children's vitamins, at a market that's just oversaturated with really low quality ingredients. Haya is very thoughtfully designed. They looked at what modern kids are actually eating or not eating and then formulated around the specific nutritional gaps.

22:14Jackie Oshry:So they've got vitamin D, B12, C, zinc, folate, which are all the foundational nutrients to support immune health, rapid growth that kids go through. And of course, the ingredient list is non-GMO, vegan, dairy-free, allergy-free, gelatin-free, nut-free. They've really thought of everything. It's formulated by pediatricians and nutritional scientists. It's a very powerful, chewable vitamin. Kids love it. It's got that great taste, but it's not filled with like sugary garbage. Kids love the bottle. It's like a fun activity that like they get to decorate it. And you can obviously have peace of mind knowing you're giving a vitamin that actually helps, which shouldn't be revolutionary, but it is.

22:48Jackie Oshry:We've also worked out a special deal with Haya. You can receive 50 % off your first order on any of their products. To claim the deal, you have to go to hyahealth.com slash toast.

Thank you, Hyah Health, for sponsoring today's episode. Thank you, Turdy,

23:08Claudia Oshry:for letting us know that Hyah Health sponsored today's episode. It's literally my job. Our first story, in no particular order, I would say are the stories, but this is an exciting, fun one SNL has set their season 52 hosts and musical guests and Jalen Brunson star of the New York Knicks will be hosting the first episode of the season with music from Cat's Eye that's

23:36Jackie Oshry:huge first of all like I don't like tune in every week to SNL but I will be sat for this I didn't even think I didn't realize like that they were coming back and it was the first one since they won the championship but this is a like a genuine perfect casting i also think um like i don't really know like jaylen's personality like i'm looking forward to getting like obviously he's an amazing basketball player and i feel like he really just stands like behind his talent we don't really he doesn't lead personality first he leads like skill first so who is jaylen brunson who is jaylen

24:04Claudia Oshry:brunson i think he's probably he's just like you like i feel like he's a regular guy yeah and he's like a young dad and a husband and he's working hard and he loves basketball he loves Gakaba do you think he's a big cat's eye fan no yeah I feel like they could have like paired up a better

24:24Jackie Oshry:musical artist with Jalen's someone like more New York it could have been like such

24:27Claudia Oshry:a New York night yeah so here are the people they announced in this run first we have Jalen and cash Billy Joel yes then they have Harry Styles he's doing his New York residency at the Harry Styles. Oh, what do you do? You haven't seen this?

24:44Jackie Oshry:I saw the short shorts. Is that what you're talking about?

24:47Claudia Oshry:I don't know if you haven't seen what the story is. I'll make you look at a picture when we talk about the story because it's really crazy. Oh my God, I'm so excited. So maybe not Harry Styles. Dakota Johnson is then hosting with hardcore rock band Turnstile. Sad. Okay, like I don't know. And then Shane Gillis will host for the third time on October 10th with Rosalia as the musical guest.

25:10Jackie Oshry:Don't you think it's so crazy? I know. That Shane Gillis, like, given his whole arc. Like, I do think that he's, like, he doesn't need SNL. And, like, if I'm him, like, I'm holding a grudge. But he obviously doesn't. And it's also weird that, like, SNL has sort of, like, debased, not debased himself. But, like, they fired him and now he's the host, like, three times. I don't know. I just think it's crazy.

25:30Claudia Oshry:It's kind of like they're desperate to have him on the show. And I'm sure now they would love to have him on the show. but he's so far surpassed going on SNL. No, no, as a cast member. As a cast member, yeah. So at least they can admit when they're wrong. Yeah, it's impressive.

25:46Jackie Oshry:Who's the musical artist with him? Rosalia. Oh, right. Yeah, I feel like this lineup does genuinely nothing for me except for Jalen Brunson.

25:54Claudia Oshry:And then the other person they announced was Indy Navarati. She's going to be the Halloween episode with Gracie Abrams.

26:02Jackie Oshry:yeah and do you know i'm not sure if that's a correct pronunciation but like she's like the it girl gen z from obsession i don't yeah i didn't i didn't watch it but like her and the girl from um sterling pointe i think her name is ella rubin they're like the girls of the moment like they're them they're both so pretty they're there was girls yeah there are girls stella rubin i'm going Got it. OK, I was just watching a clip from Reese Witherspoon on Armchair Expert. And he was saying, like, I didn't realize you were the first SNL host after 9-11 in 2001. Like, what was that like? I didn't even think about like all the things.

26:46Jackie Oshry:You know, you see like the Mets game where Mike Piazza scored the home run after 9-11 and Bush throughout the like kind of a core American memories. But you don't think about SNL, which is like so New York. And she said like she had such a pit and she like had a one year old. she was like a new mom she obviously like was not gonna say no um and it was like probably like the most nervous she's ever been in her whole career yeah that's and they had someone come i think they had like giuliani on the episode like it was like this whole thing um and if you were to ask me like who was the host of night of the first snl after 9-11 like i would never have guessed it was reese witherspoon but she was like america she still is but like america sweetheart this like darling girl

27:22Claudia Oshry:yeah um the 25th anniversary of 9-11 is tomorrow i've been tomorrow i do are you also just seeing so many videos and like stories every year every year I feel like this year and the lead up maybe because it's also the 25th anniversary there's just like a lot of content I think like and like all the networks are doing like specials yeah but I don't know on x and uh Instagram like just I'm just getting like so many stories did you see the drone show last night I saw the drone show last night Ben saw it in person like why didn't they tell us that was happening like I would have went to go see it you know what I mean yeah I didn't know that was happening and I do feel like I'm consuming a lot of 9-11 content and still like no one told me yeah right same like I

27:59Jackie Oshry:would have loved to have seen that um yeah tomorrow oh so eerie I I yeah we'll talk about it tomorrow

28:08Claudia Oshry:I really yeah it's so heavy so that's the SNL lineup like I'm sure it's gonna all be bad but it's exciting the announcements are always exciting I'll say that yeah although this was like besides for Jalen Brunson I feel like this really falls flat I agree and I don't know who's their musical booker but like and maybe I'm just out of touch because I don't know turn style

28:30Jackie Oshry:combination of like you being a little like you're you have your own sort of genre specific demographic specific but I feel like they don't know who they are at SNL like they're trying to be like Gen Z but like Gen Z doesn't really watch SNL and like they're always trying to cater to an audience that's like not there and I don't even know who watches SNL I don't think they know who watches SNL yeah but like Tim Dillon hosting SNL when totally I was watching another Tim Dillon he's kind of empowered me like I don't think I say enough crazy events of things like I was I watching today he was talking about it was cracking me where'd you see it on reels I'm obviously on Dylan talk yeah oh so it's other people clipping his stuff yeah and they send me like six minute clips and it's the perfect thing to watch while I'm getting ready I like listen I don't even watch fuck i was laughing so hard today it was not lindsey clancy he did do a hilarious segment on um and it's like crazy to say it's even hilarious um on the woman who was like knife wielding in time square did you see that video and the police killed her um but like he's not he's not reacting to like these tragedies he's reacting to people's reactions because like lindsey clancy like the the rhetoric has been so shocking so his commentary is really on the commentary which makes it so much funnier and he's just kind of empowered me he said something so offensive i couldn't believe what i was hearing i was laughing so about the times square knifer no no no no it was what was i watching today what's like recent drama that he's been talking about us open no i can't remember it'll come back to me but i realized like i am not radical enough in my commentary on the toast.

30:10Jackie Oshry:I agree. It's kick it up a notch. If you hear me saying like some crazy things, just if you, and are looking for someone to blame, it's Tim Dillon. Well, I'll say something and be like, oh, was that like the wrong thing to say? And it's like, no, I need to be bringing more Tim Dillon energy. Well,

30:25Claudia Oshry:our next story, maybe, maybe you'll find something to say. So Harry Styles has fans outraged over his insane New York City concert ticket. Oh my God. I saw it. Yes. So, I saw the plane and the tower. Yeah. A social media user has shared an image of Harry Styles ticket artwork for his Together Together tour that is going to be in New York this week. It's a residency. It's like 30 shows. I think it's like months long. Yes. So the ticket in question is for the Wednesday, September 9th, the seventh night of his tour stop. And on the front, it looks like a ticket stop. And on the back, there's like the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building, like the skyline.

31:03Jackie Oshry:It's like a cartoon drawing. and a car flying through the air a car i thought it was a plane oh is it is it a plane or a car why would there be a car in the sky no look pull it up pull it up because i saw this it looks like there's no it looks like a convertible

31:26Claudia Oshry:a plane is even crazier but yeah it also looks like a plane oh uh it's a plane uh it really

31:32Jackie Oshry:it's a car plane it's a car it's an ambiguous vehicle page six said seemingly with styles in a vehicle very good it's a vehicle yeah um i saw this i think obviously we're all like on hypersensitive this week but i don't think you could ever be hypersensitive enough to 9-11 imagery and it's crazy this is just one of those things where it's like how many people before this got printed. It's the skyline, but there's really only two towers. You know? Well, no, I don't agree with that because like one is, like they're far away from each other and one's like much shorter than the other. I just think like when you're putting planes in the sky near the New York skyline, it's uber important to be like very sensitive, you know?

32:18Jackie Oshry:Yeah. No, I think. And obviously this week, even more so. Would this have stopped traffic in January?

32:25Claudia Oshry:I don't know. People might not have been on as high alert and wouldn't have been as top of mind. But yeah, after all the content I've seen this week, of course, this is the first thing that I would think of. But no, it's not like there's the Statue of Liberty here. Like there's only two towers. There's only two iconic towers, just saying. No, it's 1 ,000 % bad.

32:44Jackie Oshry:Like it's bad.

32:49Jackie Oshry:I just think that this is yet another... Demerit for Mr. Styles? No, well, no. I think this is just like another, more proof that like Harry Styles is very much in his flop era. And I know people don't want to hear that, but he is. So another demerit. Sure.

33:11Claudia Oshry:It's really crazy. I'm reading like the comments.

33:14Jackie Oshry:Because I think any human being, before you read that there's backlash, I saw it and my first thought was like, oh my God, a plane. Like it's sort of obvious. Yeah. So the fact that like all the editors and printers and animate,

33:28Claudia Oshry:like all the, I feel like sometimes, sometimes it's obvious, like once it's out there to a person who's not involved, but like sometimes when you are in it, it's not obvious. I do feel like that sometimes for people and I can give grace, but this feels like very intentional.

33:46Jackie Oshry:Okay. I don't think it's intentional. I don't think he was trying to like a threat. Oh my God. Tim Dillon. very Tim Dillon of you. I don't think it was a threat. I don't. I don't think Harry would do that. Because I think Harry loves New York. I just think. Oh, and mind you, Harry has no idea that he's even giving out like commemorative tickets. Oh yeah, like he doesn't work on the artwork at all. This has nothing to do with Harry's self.

34:15Claudia Oshry:Harry team. Harry team. Harry artist. Yeah. Who is Harry's artist? yes let's meet the designer behind this offensive artwork yeah let's do that because it wasn't harry so someone drew this let's talk to them see what's going on in their life see what they're about what would a therapist say yeah i think that's where we should place blame and i do think like when you're just like even though he's a huge star sometimes like there's a lot of materials that just like go out you know jackie he has no idea that these things even exist no but it's How many people approved this? How many people do you actually think?

34:52Claudia Oshry:Like two. Of course it leads back to Tate McRae. I think a million people approved Tate McRae though. Like I think a number of people, I don't think a number of people saw this honestly. I think it was just like some bonus artwork. The artist made it, they sent it to the service and then they sent it out. To Kinko's. Yeah. Totally.

35:17Jackie Oshry:Really crazy. Do better. literally do better on the on the eve of the 25th anniversary not cool yeah are you ready for our

35:27Claudia Oshry:next story which is shocking and it's meant to be so sydney sweeney puts on a show as she strips down in cheeky novig ad so sydney sweeney is embracing sports and sports betting in a bold way the The actress stripped down for sports prediction market Novig. So Novig is a new prediction market app platform, and it's strictly sports. It's just for betting on sports. And she is in their first national brand campaign. And it says Novig is just sports. And in the spirit of that, she's not wearing any clothes. And she's like sitting on a basketball hoop with her coochie out. There's literally 10 different ways that she's naked with sports covering her privates.

36:16Claudia Oshry:And so, yes, it is just sports.

36:19Jackie Oshry:Now, I have got to know how much she was paid for this.

36:23Claudia Oshry:Oh, by the way, she is an investor in the company. She's a strategic partner and equity holder.

36:30Jackie Oshry:She has even more incentive to, because the thing is, this commercial makes no sense, like, messaging-wise. Like, what does a naked Sydney sweetie have to do with predicting sports? But we are all talking about Novig, something I had never heard of prior to yesterday. Like this is effective marketing in the sense that like we're being introduced to a brand. And now I know the name of the brand and what they do.

36:50Claudia Oshry:I will say, even though this is like so crazy. And at first when I saw it, I'm like, what's she getting naked for? But now, like when we talk through the creative, like I will never forget that Novig is just sports.

37:03Jackie Oshry:No, I'm telling you, it is not underwear. She looks great. I saw a comment and it's so true. Like she is literally Cassie from Euphoria. Like this is so something Cassie would do. And I do, you know, you know, what's funny is that. And I think people are going to think this is like a crazy statement. I feel that like how she thinks about like her body and her image and like people sexualizing her is really what Emily Ratajkowski thought she was doing. Right. Like being this like intellectual with her titties out. Like Sydney Sweeney is laughing her ass to the bank. Like she's in on the joke and like, she's not just being sexualized for the sake of being sexualized.

37:42Jackie Oshry:Like she's, this is not even a commercial for a brand that she's getting paid. She's an investor. And like, I think that she's letting people sort of like comment and sexualize her. And they think that she doesn't know, but she does. Yeah. Whereas like Emily Radikowski was like, I'm intellectual. Stop looking at my tits. Here's my nipple. Like, okay, we're confused for free. Yeah. Like we're confused. so actually I think in its own way this is very very feminist twist you find this to be empowering no um but I get it like I feel like she thinks like I feel like everyone thinks that she doesn't

38:18Claudia Oshry:get it but she does like oh for sure she does I feel like every time I'm like okay she's gonna be serious like or buttoned up now and she did that role of the boxer and she's like gonna right right of course trying to be you know taken serious no she's gonna do all of the things

38:38Jackie Oshry:yes and i respect her clear financial motivations in life i think she like grew up poor i think she

38:45Claudia Oshry:has a lot of spigots no i think she like wants multiple lives an expensive life yeah i think that she like likes to live have fun and like spend money and live free take a jet yeah it

38:57Jackie Oshry:helps that she's dating a billionaire of course and i think a lot of times when you do date a billionaire like you do have to sacrifice like on their looks and their age there's not like so many like hot i mean look at mark zuckerberg have you ever seen somebody uglier in your whole life like there are so few like why can't bring my segver into this well i just think it's an example like show me like a an actually conventionally handsome billionaire yeah and it's like scooter bronze stands alone whatever you think of him like you cannot deny he's like a good looking guy yeah fit young ish so she's getting the best of both you know yeah also the pictures are amazing

39:34Claudia Oshry:like seriously how can you really pose in that many different ways without showing privates and the use of of different athletic equipment is really crafty I would say oh yeah

39:46Jackie Oshry:I'm just looking at Bezos I'm looking at billionaires like sorry Bezos I would need like a thousand drinks larry page i mean maybe he at one point but like warren buffett like you know like point um i don't know a lot of these people like what they look like i'm just looking at the

40:04Claudia Oshry:bill gates yuck like seriously yuck and also sometimes like to be a billionaire you have to be much older because it's of course over time of course um i feel like ken griffin is like not

40:16Jackie Oshry:that bad looking i have to look up a picture what do you think about elon um no like oh he's not on the list that's weird he's a trillionaire that's why oh sorry he's not on the list he's just number

40:29Claudia Oshry:one he's not on the list because he's a trillionaire not a billionaire yeah i think that um

40:35Jackie Oshry:like of course with all due respect like i think he's ugly like just and i'm only talking about

40:39Claudia Oshry:like looks i'm gonna pull up a photo of him and like just try and evaluate based on looks

40:47Jackie Oshry:yeah i'm just looking at like these oh um maybe like in his heyday like mike bloomberg could have gotten it but today no he could get it that's what i'm saying for girls like sydney sweeney like scooter brawn is a one in a million type of guy yeah yeah but it's not going to stop

41:01Claudia Oshry:her from working hard claudia no of course do you think she should work less hard i mean if it were

41:09Jackie Oshry:me but that's why she's where I'm at and like I'm a slob it's true it's true okay you agreed a little

41:15Claudia Oshry:too quickly I'm I was agreeing with the first half if you guys like see our I started saying it's true before you said slob when you said that's why she's where she's at it's true it's true okay fine nothing to do with you I didn't that was before you brought yourself into it

41:30Jackie Oshry:but you should have known I was going to historically it's what I always do historically it's this was a crazy advertisement i will say loved her with like the kardashian um beachy waves like with her long extensions i never see her looking like that yeah no she looks really beautiful and um she also like stepped her pussy up style wise i feel like for so long she was like the hottest girl in the world and she like showed up to all these red carpets like actually looking like the mother of the bride so bad and i feel like maybe it's scooter bra on like a year ago she started like dressing well yeah i she dresses really well now

42:04Claudia Oshry:that you forget that there was a period where yeah where she was like so bad like she was either the bat mitzvah girl or the mother of the bride and you actually have to go out of your way to dress

42:15Jackie Oshry:someone so young and like perfect and make them look bad it's harder to make them look bad than

42:19Claudia Oshry:it is to make them look good right well i now know that novik is just sports yeah that we need

48:16Claudia Oshry:all the new features and they're coming out with a flip phone so the new iphone duo is a foldable smartphone it has an internal dual display panel that provides the largest most immersive screen size ever at 7.6 inches diagonally so i've heard that when you close it it's about the size of a passport and then when you open it it's giving more like ipad yeah so that's the thing it's like

48:39Jackie Oshry:i am intrigued even though i want to hate it like i'm open to it except that when you open it it's Like that's not a phone. It looks like the iPad mini. And I just feel like I already have such a toxic relationship with my phone. If it's even bigger and more immersive, like I'm scared.

48:52Claudia Oshry:Yeah, I'm scared too. I'm trying to spend like less time on my phone. I mean, this is actually good for like content and content creators because like the way people consume there. Now you're going to want to watch more things on your phone. It's going to be like a more premium viewing experience. So that's sort of sounds like a beautiful place to watch a new episode of the toast. Right. Oh, it's going to be great for video podcasts with Pardee Queens and amazing frames. And amazing frames. It'll also be good, I think, for like TV and movies because people will really be able to watch that stuff on their phones.

49:22Claudia Oshry:Now, you wouldn't watch like a movie on your phone, but like you would on your iPad. So, yeah.

49:26Jackie Oshry:Also, like the closed version of the phone, like not the flipped open part. It's giving like Palm Pilot. Like you need to have like your whole head. It's like wide.

49:34Claudia Oshry:Yeah. Like a passport, they said. And what does this mean for phone cases?

49:38Jackie Oshry:Such a good question.

49:40Claudia Oshry:And Octobuddies.

49:41Jackie Oshry:I want to say I happened I didn't know consciously that the event was happening and that they were announcing a new iPhone but I should have known because like my phone has been on the fritz these last couple of days and you know whenever they announce a new iPhone like the one that came before starts to like break down so they make you get it um and I do want to say like for research

49:56Claudia Oshry:purposes I will be getting this phone I think I'm gonna get it because I missed the last update like I think I have a 15 um no or 16 you have a 17 you might have a six I have a 17 I think I have 15 because I'm always ordering phone cases and it's 15.

50:10Jackie Oshry:You know what makes me feel sick? Like seriously sick? Like I remember when they launched the iPhone period. Like it didn't even have a number. Like it was just iPhone. This is 15 Pro Max. Oh my God. Yeah.

50:20Claudia Oshry:And it's like the battery. And you consider yourself a content creator? The battery like doesn't last the whole day. I'm always like, do I have a charger? So I am ready for a new phone. So I think I have to get this phone. That's the next one.

50:31Jackie Oshry:I'm just afraid because sometimes Apple launches stuff and like if you can get it you're the coolest person alive sometimes apple launches stuff and you get it like i remember the goggles what were those called like the virtual reality like apple uh do you know what i'm talking about i don't know the apple ones no no remember when apple came out with like

50:50Claudia Oshry:what the fuck is it called i only know google glass no no no sorry it's it's not a pair of glasses

50:57Jackie Oshry:it's not a pair of the goggles the goggles vision pro i think that was what it was called like and everyone was talking about it and i feel that like if you bought one it was like a mark on you that you are a loser you know what i mean and i'm afraid that like this flip phone i don't know if you buy it it makes you cool or if it makes you a loser because sometimes you just look like a sheep who will spend two thousand dollars

51:19Claudia Oshry:on anything it just depends like is this the next frontier and then all phones will eventually be duos and i think also like samsung has been doing this you know yes there is um there is i think a

51:32Jackie Oshry:google phone netflix or a motorola of course apple is never the first to do something but

51:37Claudia Oshry:for some reason people only care when apple does it yeah so it's starting at uh almost two thousand dollars and that's like with no space you know that's with 256 gigabytes ranging up to three $3 ,200 for a model with two terabytes.

51:52Jackie Oshry:Now, like, do we wait or do we just do it? You know, I think I'm going to get it.

51:57Claudia Oshry:And also it's like, is there an actual like technological purpose to having a flip phone or are you doing it because like we all sort of like miss having flip phones and like the vibe.

52:05Jackie Oshry:Nostalgic. And like the vibe of like clicking down. Like I saw like a lot of tech commentators commenting on the fact that when you open up the new iPhone flip phone, there's a crease where you it's like not a complete I would expect there to be.

52:20Claudia Oshry:You're folding the screen.

52:22Jackie Oshry:I would expect there not to be, actually. Very. For these prices.

52:26Claudia Oshry:Yeah, I guess this is what's next for technology. What else did they announce? It does feel like a big leap, a big technological leap, though, of course. Sometimes they announced. Other brands have done it.

52:36Jackie Oshry:Many times. Sometimes they announce other features coming to the phones, or you can get your AirPods to go up your ass. New AI features for new iPhones.

52:49Claudia Oshry:AI Siri is more expressive oh god just what we need I'm crying I'm sure there's other stuff but

52:57Jackie Oshry:this article is focused on the duo on just the phone yeah no that was the big the big news of

53:01Claudia Oshry:the day they should have us like be the spokespeople because we're like the duo oh I love

53:08Jackie Oshry:that and you know what I totally forgot like you know you've made it I got Apple PR last time they did their announce i got like the new um computer the fuck what was it called the neo that everyone was talking about it's like pink it's so cute i love it um and they were like do you want it i was like yeah so can i get the phone too i would love to not pay for it i didn't know that was an option yeah i got apple pr i feel like it's like an elite pr list to be on seriously cool yeah sometimes i forget about like cool things that i do or have done you know yeah like what mass singer no i was gonna say a similar vein before he obviously became like a crazy nazi

53:48Claudia Oshry:no closed on sunday oh kanye yeah no but what about steve we like whenever we talk about like cool things that you've done that we forget like we say kanye and now we say mass singer steve harvey

53:58Jackie Oshry:twice if you read my book like you guys don't even know like the mentor that steve harvey was to me and like the kind of sort of tumultuous relationship we had after my first appearance on the show it's not that tumultuous but you should read my book but you did it twice the show yeah oh I forgot about the second time like I was so like they were obsessed with me and Steve had like a real me and Steve had a real connection he like couldn't get over me I'm being dead serious he told me I was a star and I was really going places I remember that he was right you went a thousand percent look at me I'm I have my own podcast okay um yeah and they invited me back like a year or two later and we just like reconnected and he was asking me like about social media like he's like literally when I consider my mentors sorry I have to add Hillary Hoffman and Steve Harvey.

54:36Claudia Oshry:Yeah. Or like people who were like integral to in my growth in your journey. Major stops along the way on your journey. The shoulders on which I stand. Yeah. Stephen

54:47Jackie Oshry:Harvey. Let's make a graphic. It's like a picture of me standing on Steve Harvey shoulders. Steve Harvey standing on like Gwyneth Paltrow shoulders. All my mentors and Hilary Hoffman. And Berg

54:59Claudia Oshry:snader of course are you ready for our fifth and final story oh my god i know i think i think it will take some time with it though because cma award nominations are out oh yeah they just came out i didn't even know that um so let's go through it shall we we have ella langley miranda lambert and casey musgraves leading the nominations wow go casey musgraves because i feel like her album

55:23Jackie Oshry:like really came and went um but i think that it's obviously ella's year so entertainer of the

55:29Claudia Oshry:year we're gonna start from the bigs here are the nominees luke combs cody johnson ella langley

55:34Jackie Oshry:chris stapleton and laney wilson um they always just like make shit up so i'm gonna say like who i predict and my predictions are based on like statistics and facts and theirs are just based on vibes it does feel like ella langley's year even though it's so crazy that you can be nominated for she was on like the biggest tour of the year this year opening for morgan wallen and it's like morgan wallen's not even nominated for entertainer well they don't nominate him for anything no they've started to like reincorporate him back they don't let him win but they throw him in there every now

56:02Claudia Oshry:and then can you read me the nominees again i will but i will i don't think more morgan wallen isn't even nominated for male vocalist he is not nominated for anything was his album this year uh yeah and oh that's crazy yeah so you can't even think about that uh entertainer was luke combs cody johnson ella langley chris stapleton and laney wilson even though like ella langley was the face of country music this year like the way that this category works like I don't think

56:28Jackie Oshry:she'll win no I think it's just about like who toured the most it's gonna be Chris Stapleton or Wainey Wilson per usual Wainey Wilson um yeah I wouldn't be mad if it was Chris Stapleton and I would be mad if it was Lainey Wilson like I know and I would not be mad if it for a third year in a row give my speech about how I actually love Lainey Wilson but she's not deserving of any of accolades like seriously don't make me do it I wouldn't be mad if it's Cody Johnson and of course

56:54Claudia Oshry:I would be thrilled if it's Luke Holmes I had to turn that song off yesterday like I was listening

57:00Jackie Oshry:to music while I got ready and I was like doing my makeup take that phone call from your mom like when the bridge comes on like seriously I have to go die like I can't I can't hear it yeah like

57:10Claudia Oshry:it's it's Luke's time you know I've sort of like they do love to snub him they love to snub him and that's why I didn't even mention him when I was talking about like who how I'll react when people win because like I I'm just used to the fact that he's not gonna win I don't know why

57:22Jackie Oshry:but obviously no it's like why would he win he just like took country music to Australia and the UK and broke records over there and is introducing the genre to an entirely new group of people but why would that make him entertaining the year when Lady Wilson was on Yellowstone like please

57:34Claudia Oshry:he's my number one for this if I were in the voting block yeah next we have single of the year We have Be Her. It's Choose in Texas. Be Her by Ella Langley. Choose in Texas by Ella Langley. I Knew It, I Knew You by Taylor Swift. Oh. Somewhere Over Laredo by Lainey Wilson. And The Fall. Oh, Cody Johnson. Well, you know who it's for me. It's The Fall for me.

58:03Jackie Oshry:I also can't listen to The Painter because obviously that song is about his wife, but it's actually about Ruby.

58:06Claudia Oshry:Oh, it's about me actually. Oh, you are The Painter? I'm The Painter.

58:11Jackie Oshry:oh no Ruby's a painter I don't remember life before he came into the picture showed me beauty I was missing with him that's that's sweet but I feel like show me colors I ain't never seen

58:22Claudia Oshry:I literally sang it last night when I was putting him down I feel like it's Cody giving me my flowers for being like the painter of our life in my family oh my god I'm cracking up that's

58:32Jackie Oshry:hilarious and like you are the painter but the fact that you're like nominating yourself makes it like less sweet Zach should be like Jax you're the painter of course of course but like he doesn't

58:40Claudia Oshry:know the song and when I heard it I was just like and he's singing about his wife and it just like made me feel seen as a wife you know that's beautiful oh I don't like it's only someone saying it to Lindsay Clancy like maybe things would have turned out different that's such a

58:56Jackie Oshry:good point there are a couple of songs if I were curating a playlist for Lindsay Clancy just in an effort to have perhaps changed her mind and like and boost morale around the house yeah did she try putting on music

59:15Claudia Oshry:it's not funny

59:17Jackie Oshry:it's not funny whatever choosing Texas is nominated for should and maybe won't because they just like make shit up over there like they refuse to give it to Shabuzi with Bar Song but like that was the song of the year not even just in country in the world

59:30Claudia Oshry:it was the song of the year I agree

59:32Jackie Oshry:but Slay to be nominated in the same category twice

59:34Claudia Oshry:seriously album of the year Ain't In It for my health by zach top dandelion by ella langley middle of nowhere by casey musgraves parker mccullum parker mccullum and the way i am by luke holmes honestly i would be good with any

59:52Jackie Oshry:of these oh really i feel it's not a really competitive category and it's like to me only two of these nominations even deserve to be nominated and that's luke and ella and i'll be

1:00:00Claudia Oshry:happy if either of them win no remember we listened to parker mccullum's album because we had heard good things and it was nice i remember i heard it like once and never listened to it again yeah middle of nowhere i didn't know her album was called that you know i love that

1:00:10Jackie Oshry:i know that's your favorite luke home song middle of somewhere what it's middle of somewhere it's

1:00:15Claudia Oshry:middle of somewhere because like the middle of nowhere to you is the middle of somewhere to me somewhere to me oh it's so beautiful it's so beautiful yeah song of the year we have be her ella langley beautiful things megan maroney choose in texas ella langley and miranda lambert is on that dry spell casey musgraves and gary stephen wilson jr why does it feel like this like wasn't

1:00:39Jackie Oshry:a big year for country music i like there none of these songs are even remotely eligible except for and yes miranda lambert wrote choose in texas with elliangley she's getting rich off that song i think one because of the erasure of morgan wallen yeah and he had a 30 song album and like

1:00:55Claudia Oshry:so many of the number one hits in country music this year were morgan wallen and so when i'm a

1:01:00Jackie Oshry:A little crazy, but the world's insane.

1:01:03Claudia Oshry:When you take him out, then it's like, well, where are the hits? Morgan Wall was the hits. It's true.

1:01:07Jackie Oshry:It's true.

1:01:09Claudia Oshry:But also, Choose in Texas is the song of the year.

1:01:12Jackie Oshry:It's Ella's year. Like, every award she's nominated for, she is the clear winner. Is she going to go home with 11 awards or zero? We'll find out. Female Vocalist of the Year.

1:01:21Claudia Oshry:Miranda Lambert. Ella Langley. Ella Langley. Megan Maroney. Casey Musgraves. Lainey Wilson.

1:01:25Jackie Oshry:I really like the friendship between Miranda Lambert and Ella Langley. It's like very me and Steve Harvey, like mentor. Yeah. Miranda's like sort of in her friendship era. A thousand percent. She made up with Casey Musgraves. They did a collab together. And I think she's really taken on this like mentorship level, like role with Ella Langley, who's kind of the Miranda Lambert of her generation. But I feel like she's also friendly towards Laney Wilson,

1:01:52Claudia Oshry:you know, like that hasn't shut her out. She's just sort of like in her girl's girl era.

1:01:57Jackie Oshry:And I never saw that for Miranda when we were like reporting on, all of her like divorce drama with the cop and the married guy um i love that she settled into this like girl boss era mentor i follow her on social media it's one of my she's one of my favorite follows she like really walks the walk of the country lifestyle and talks the talk i think i think a lot of i think this is like a thing in country music like people who like sing about riding horses and like like live in a high rise condo yeah um no she she like lives in the middle

1:02:24Claudia Oshry:of somewhere male vocalist of the year luke combs cody johnson chris stapleton zach top stephen

1:02:30Jackie Oshry:milson jr any of the three first three i'm cool with for me it's luke or cody you know like i like sort of don't fuck with chris stapleton that's so crazy no hate no shade no nothing

1:02:41Claudia Oshry:it's just like i don't know why we haven't clicked even quick and i think you need to work on the click i know because one day i'll watch this back and be like that's so crazy and like the thing is I know that he's amazing everybody loves him like right I think a lot of times like he has

1:02:56Jackie Oshry:transcended genres like everyone in the industry respects the fuck out of him and it's so rare that there's someone like that who's actually deserving of all that and he is like his voice is insane he does everything with his wife and I actually heard I only read this recently that you know he sings on stage every song with his wife right next to him and they just like stare at each other and he's like gets really nervous on stage that's why she like is a part of it because like

1:03:17Claudia Oshry:it helps with his nerves so cute no everything about him is amazing I have no faults except I I don't know why. Spotify never pushed him onto me.

1:03:24Jackie Oshry:Oh, really? I find that he's like an industry plant. I'm always, I know all of his music. Meanwhile, I've never sought it out. I have the opposite experience. I never sought it out and it never found me. Joy of my life. There are so many songs. I know joy of my life.

1:03:37Claudia Oshry:I know joy of my life.

1:03:38Jackie Oshry:You are the joy of my life.

1:03:40Claudia Oshry:Vocal group of the year, Lady A, Little Big Town, Midland, Old Dominion, Red Clay Strays. Oh, I didn't know Midland was still out there doing their thing. They had a hot couple of years. Where's Rascal Flatts?

1:03:52Jackie Oshry:they're busy putting the industry on their back.

1:03:54Claudia Oshry:Literally, and they released duets. Like, they're still working. Like, it's disgusting. No wonder why they want to quit.

1:04:00Jackie Oshry:The CMA is so fucking problematic. I feel like every time we recap the nominations or the actual awards, like, they literally never cease to get it wrong. It's so true. Okay, those are, like, the big categories. And their most egregious act was the Shibuzzi erasure of 2003. Like, the way they went out of their way to give him no awards. Yeah.

1:04:18Claudia Oshry:The other category would be new artist of the year. oh avery anna carter faith emily ann roberts tucker wetmore stephen wilson jr well obviously we'll go to stephen wilson jr considering he's nominated in all the big categories

1:04:31Jackie Oshry:but i just want to say shout out to emily ann roberts i love we ain't got a whole lot but we got a lot of little and a little suits me just fine we go together like a bow and a fiddle and we live a little simple life she's like hardcore country and she um i discovered her on tiktok and she's like crushing it. She like opens. Oh, she opened for Cody Johnson. She's like the sweet little darling, like true, like a farmer girl who's like, you know, mowing the lawn in the morning or whatever and like going to the Opry at night and like she's so glam. I love her. That's beautiful. Yeah. So can't wait to see all my favorite artists lose.

1:05:07Jackie Oshry:And when will that be streaming on ABC? When will that be happening?

1:05:11Claudia Oshry:On Wednesday, November 18th.

1:05:14Jackie Oshry:Oh, I have so much life to live. That's been a long time.
