Beautifully for me feels like a Monday because I'm back at home and yesterday night like felt like a Sunday. So I'm kind of jazzed about that. We're happy for you. It doesn't feel like that for us, but okay. Like hack your own week, even though I worked, it's not even like I didn't work Monday, Tuesday. So just a little week hack. I just need to, I'm sorry to be so negative. I just need to tell everyone like I'm having a fucking terrible morning. Like I just feel like shit. and I'm so annoyed because yesterday was probably the best I've felt in months and I was ready to come on this show and be like I'm out of it you guys I cracked the code I actually did a workout yesterday I stayed up late till 10 o 'clock oh my god I feel like I've been hit by a bus I am not okay and I'm in a fucking bad mood about it so I'm just letting everyone know that if you're like Claudia's being so negative today well I'm dealing with a lot eat my fucking ass bitch Claudia is not feeling well so to the physical symptoms we can't help you with you're at the toast you know you're gonna have that's a journey you have to walk on your own but like thank you so much the bad emotional symptoms that's what we do here I know and I'll feel better as I come out of it better throughout the show so I'm excited for that for you it's just like can I not have a moment of peace and I know everyone's like so tired of me complaining all the time I'm sorry like this is what I'm dealing with like it is what it is understood well we're foolishly ma to turdy thank Thank you.
1:25So you're having flu-like symptoms, you say? No, just like I'm tired. Oh, and you know what? I got into bed last night. I'm like, you know what? I'm doing it. What are we doing? I'm sleeping without a bra. Like I'm just so sick of the bras like touching my skin. Okay. But my boobs are so big and so heavy. And let me tell you, mistake of the century. If you're thinking about sleeping without a bra, don't fucking do it. I actually think my body is aching from the weight of my breasts being carried all night. Jackie, I was up all night and like, God forbid, I just got up. I couldn't get up. Like it felt like bricks on my chest.
2:02It was such a bad idea. And I feel like my entire disposition is due to the fact that I slept without a bra. Interesting. I feel like you need a looser bra for sleeping. I have, of course. No, like I love the Hatch maternity bras. It's like as close as you can get to like not wearing a bra, but it's something and those are really you why don't you borrow one while you're here you could take one maybe i will i just i still wear them i feel like there's a girl out there who's pregnant and thinking about sleeping without a bra tonight like don't fucking do it i'm telling you it will take me a week to recover i think that's really the cause of what i'm feeling like well luckily for you you're coming here tomorrow which the journey i don't envy you with your sickness but i was planning on making a chicken soup today so you would have pargy lit you don't know how i feel Okay, what about this?
2:46Like, I'm going to make a chicken soup so that I have tasty, I'll pluck out the chicken for you and noodles. No, no. Okay, like, I don't like soup. Although, if I am, like, forced to partake, I do prefer matzo ball. Okay, I've never made matzo ball. But I learned. You need a frozen one. I can learn. I can learn anything. But I can learn. Like, if Turdy needs matzo ball soup. Jackie, what's that from? Law and Order. Oh, my God. It's like this random episode of Law and Order for some reason. us as kids like we quoted all the time what is what's the what i don't even know she's like a mom no i thought she was a child but she wanted to raise a kid and she was like but i can learn that's really sad olivia would know olivia was really struck by the episode and that's why we started quoting it all the time to make matzo balls but i can learn yeah learn well not if you're not in the mood for soup i'm not in the mood for soup but i am in the mood to be at your house like that sounds nice this city is care of you here it is one fucking degree like it is so cold i'm ready what is the degree there in the 30s we hit the threes we hit a new decade this we're in the 60s which welcome to the 60s go jackie go go go like it's so cold for here it's so amazing yeah that's nice so okay i do have some things to look forward to life is worth living plus you're coming here then we've got jizno on sunday and it's gonna be a really big next few days i feel like we're acting like it's not i feel like we're acting like girls who don't have stuff going on but we've got a lot going on and like it kills me that like we have stuff going on that we can't share you know what i know i know we've got some big things brewing yeah so i will just like have to wait a year till we could tell you but just have to leave it at that and really annoy you guys yeah i don't i'm so oh by the way, today's Spotify wrapped.
4:41Speaking of annoying, let me tell you, and I know that I'm not saying this because I'm in a bad mood. I'm saying this because I really fucking feel that way. Like, please stop. Okay, everyone is allowed to share one screenshot from their Spotify wrapped. Whether you want to share what song you listen to the most, who your favorite artist was. I don't care which fucking one you choose. You get one. People like doing an analysis on their fucking Instagram story. Okay, yours was funny because Billy Eichner being in your top five, I'll allow it. I posted two because they were both funny. Jackie, nobody's is that interesting.
5:08Yours is probably the most interesting one could be. And it wasn't even that interesting. Okay. I'm sick of it. Like you get one. I posted one. Flexia. Like not only is Taylor Swift my number one artist, she's four out of five of my top songs. Like some of you bitches, not to call out snitch, have Taylor Swift as your number one artist. And she's not even on your top five songs. Like please. Everybody gets one. Oh, and by the way, explain how that makes sense. For the second year in a row, I just want to say Spotify wrapped is no longer factual. I don't know what the angle is, but Claudia, how many times, even when you're here how many times we listen to we know the way from moana i can tell you i can tell you how many times in the hamptons i can tell you how many times because i literally know everywhere to that terrible fucking song right not only is that not even on my hundred playlist it's not on my playlist of my top songs of 2024 lin-manuel should have been my number one artist meanwhile my number two song hakuna matata which is by four people including billy eichner and now billy eichner is my number four artist beating out sabrina carpenter shibuzzi casey musgraves it's a lie It's lies.
6:07I'm feeling as though it's no longer data-driven. It's not data-driven. This Bluey song is my number one song. We listened to that for three weeks. Now, I just want to say, it's a 30-second song, so we played it on repeat so many times. Right, right. So probably the length of another, we played it six times for every one time we would listen to another song. But that was not the number one song. The number one song was We Know the Way, and the number two songs were Spidey and His Amazing Friends. And my number one artist should have been Fall Out Boy because we listened to that album on repeat.
6:31It's lies. Yeah, I think when you have kids, like it definitely, mine felt data-driven. I'm going to say that. I felt completely represented in the data. But also, you know, as a creator on Spotify, because we released our episodes, you also get your own Spotify wrapped, like sharing stats about how many countries were the podcast was listening to. And I felt like this year they really phoned in. They usually give really good tea, like about like what other podcasts you're beating, like good shit. This one was so boring. Like I didn't even screenshot anything to send to you. Like there was nothing of note.
6:58Yeah. Spotify wrapped is not what it used to be. It's not. And I just like, I seriously need everyone like not to be so mean, but like we're in this group chat with a bunch of our friends and everybody was like sending screenshots this morning and I literally wanted to read like you guys nobody fucking cares like it's so uninteresting to me even if you're like my lover the love of my life Ben I don't give a fuck like seriously people are so self-involved when it comes to Spotify rap thinking that anybody gives okay what about all the people who tag us that the toast was their number one listen to podcast so that was the next point I wanted to make because I've made the decision this year you know it's like always a flex like so many people to I mean this morning I already have like over 100 mentions Like how many people tag us that we're their number one podcast of the year.
7:36And it's so flattering. And every year I'm like always sharing them and like flexing on the other podcasters. But it's annoying. And I've decided I'm not going to partake this year. But I do want everyone to know like my DMs are flooded. Like everyone's talking. My DMs are flooded. I don't have plans to repost everyone. But I'm going to see how other people's reposts make me feel. Like if I'm hating watching them or I'm like, oh, this is like so fun. I want to get involved. Maybe I'll repost. I want to read the room a little bit. But I just want to say I give a couple fucks about Spotify rap. There are a couple things that are interesting.
8:04And our first story, which is the top streamed artist of the year, which is incredibly telling. And then I think there are people who like pretend to like certain things because it's like cool and edgy. And meanwhile, like your number one played artist is Taylor Swift. And like you're not listening to Martinez Brothers like you say you are. No, not only that, especially with the Taylor stuff. It's really interesting like to see people who like made Taylor their personality, acted like they've been Taylor fans their entire life. They go to eras, like mostly like content creators and influencers.
8:34And it's like, she's not even on your wrapped because you were never a fan. That is an interesting part of Spotify wrapped. But do you find this? I find this. And it's so funny. And I get it, by the way. This is not shady. Like I get tagged in a lot of like people sharing whatever their podcast. And it's funny to see like what the other podcast swirlies will repost. They'll only repost when they're number one. And it's like making a point. So I'm like, bitch, let me post them so everyone knows I'm number one. And by the way, it's not shady at all. Tink's did this morning and she actually put us as number one like with people with her podcast below but I have found over the years like the swirlies are only resharing when they're number one like showing everybody else is below me bitch I do the same thing I mean of course and I also ultimately share when like number one toast two redheads three good guys four Shannon like and it's just TNN mania yeah TNN mania I saw a couple of those so just know I'm watching every single one of your stories that you're tagging me in but I'm not resharing it because I don't want to be annoying I haven't watched them yet so when I watch them I'll see how they make me feel because also some people write nice stuff so I might do a little bit of resharing who knows what's in the cards and then also another interesting thing about Spotify rap that I did find to be factual oh they Taylor Swift was my number one artist I know everyone thinks I hate Taylor Swift so I just need to say that and they told me everybody does think you hate Taylor Swift I mean like I literally have been a fan of her since debut like you bitches could never you weren't even born it's so fucking true Jackie keep yelling at everyone I love that and Spotify said I'm in the top four percent of Taylor Swift listeners and that feels right I know I'm not the one I'm not a crazy Swiftie who leaves her album on repeat while I'm sleeping so she could get streams like yeah I but I'm I'm not 50 percent I'm not 75 I'm four percent I'm a big fucking fan but I'm not the the one percent two percent I was I was 0.05 percent top Taylor listeners and if anybody's interested um I did stream I think it was like 25 ,000 minutes of Taylor I feel like you need to share that stat so the other bitches know yeah I'm getting yeah how real you are because it's not maybe you don't even listen to Spotify so much and like you just listen to Taylor's album to hear it and so for her to be your number one artist isn't that big of a deal but to be compared to the other Swifties and to emerge is 0.5 percent 0.05 Jackie that's a little scary what was Margot I don't know I keep looking to see if anyone is like bigger than me.
10:52I don't know if they go lower than 0.05 because it's literally less than 1%. I don't know. But yeah, it does feel good. And I think that like, especially in recent years, it's kind of become like a form of social currency to be a Taylor Swift fan. Like you go to the Ares tour, you travel, you wear cute outfits. And so some people I feel are definitely phoning it in. Me and Margo have this one influencer who we literally send back their content. Text right now. Text me their name right now. Do I know who it is? I don't know, actually. It's like, it's a multi-platform. Yeah, I'll tell you later.
11:16You probably don't know this person. We send back their content. back and forth because we know that this person is like a fake challenge for a fan and decided one day to be one like see I want to see her spotify wrapped or his yeah yeah I gotta check right yeah so it's not without its merit but it's not what it used to be I am finding like serious flaws there is something like non even last year hot dog by mickey mouse didn't crack top 100 and like that was our song of the year in the kids realm so it's not like they're keeping off kids songs because like my one two three four do you think that maybe there are certain kids songs like mickey mouse like moana that they exclude from the algorithm because they're so popular you would think so they're like okay we're trying not to give you a kid's spotify wrapped however bluey as my number one and then also last year hot dog was the song we played most from mickey mouse donald so glad that year is behind us donald went to court and from the same album was on my top 100 but hot dog wasn't make it make sense I can't it's confounding it does not pass muster and um I do feel that my running of a 5k really influenced my Spotify because that was really like probably the most the time of year where I listened to the most music and like focused so much on exactly what I was listening to and that's why the songs from TTPD that were in my top well they are my favorites but they're also the ones that I ran to so who's afraid of little old me is such a good running song same with I can do it with a broken heart so just like it reminds Spotify Unwrapped Unwrapped?
12:44Wrapped Unwrapped is that show from Food Network Spotify Unwrapped is actually nice because it reminds you of like things you did this year yeah like when I was going through they're like in August you listened to a lot of old hits and that was because we were all in the hampses with the family and I was trying to like find music that everybody would appreciate so it's nice in that sense it's just a trip down memory lane what was your number one song of the year? who's afraid of little old me and that I am proud of. Also at this point, whenever I like a song, I like it. I add it to my like songs and I only listen to my like songs.
13:16So my top 100 Spotify playlist is just my like songs playlist and I'm not having fun anymore and literally in the same order. Like I'm bored. Can I tell you something? And when they were like, your number one song of the year is, I 100 % thought it was going to be, I love you for, I love you for life. I do think it's obviously less competitive. I definitely am in the 1 % of top listeners of Katy Perry's new album. I'm surprised she wasn't in my rap at all. I listened to like those four songs, Wonder, Lifetimes, Woman's World, 7 ,000 times. Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. Like, no, no, sorry. I don't know if that's true because it wasn't in my rap.
13:52No, no, I'm saying that's even a lot. Like, I know I listened to, I listened to Woman's World a lot. All the other songs from her album that I did add to my like songs because I like them, I eventually took off because I couldn't listen to them anymore. Oh my God, you're so wrong for that. Those four songs, like not the album, just those four songs are in Crayab. No, they don't pass muster when you listen to them too much. For me, but obviously not for you. Can I say something? Hmm? Is this a safe space? The safest. You know, we had this big moment yesterday with muster, right? It was the title.
14:21Everybody was loving past muster. They thought it was the best part of the episode. And I think people are expecting it too. Now, joy and toasty vernacular. I have something. I hate the phrase. It's because it sounds like mustard. Yes, and you know I hate mustard. And you don't like mustard. But like I'm not feeling naturally inclined to start throwing it into my everyday life. You don't have to. I don't like it. Okay, don't do it. That's not why I brought it up. I just don't like it. Okay. Does it offend you if I say it? Honestly, yeah. That's unforge for you because I can't be silent. That's unforge for you.
14:59I can't be censored. But good to know. Good to know. Yeah. That. that it does not pass muster. I feel like today's episode is going to be like a lot about the numbers. Toast by the numbers. The first story will be by the numbers. The rest are just, you know, normal celeb fodder. We didn't get to chat, but there was a couple of things I wanted to make sure you included. So let me just run by. Did you include Sabrina Carpenter as a story? Yes, I did. Are you familiar with the lore of like the creator who is a part of this? No, no. She's like a streamer. Okay, I'll give you the tape. Okay. Second thing.
15:34Billboard announcing their number one. Well, that was going to be kind of in the numbers. That's fine. I think it should be a part of conversation number one. Yes, agreed. Okay, so that's it. That's it. Okay, great. Yeah. So now, without further ado-da-da-da-doo, here are the Fast Five stories that you need to know.

Thank you, Turd Space. What can I say?
20:26What can I say? Except you're welcome. Also not on my top 100 when real ones know. Real ones know. That it's there. Bet. Our first story, Taylor Swift has been named Spotify's most streamed artist for 2024 with over 26 billion streams. So as we shared, Spotify wrapped us here, you know, on an individual level, but a collective level as well. right i forget that there's like you know general stats that get released as well right so spotify's global head of editorial announced the top streamed artist globally of the year for the second year in row is mistailored with more than 26.6 billion streams globally this year if only i knew really what a stream meant you know i know it's just a lot um ttpd came out this year right of course and then Midnight's came out.
21:16Okay, so for her to, I guess, last year have like not released an album and still been the number one streaming artist because Midnight's came out in 2022. That's really impressive. I think this bodes well for, you know, Taylor's business and things. And the reason why I brought up the Beyonce thing is because we've been talking, I feel like everybody's been talking about Billboard announcing their big list of the world's greatest pop stars and who's number one, who's number one. And they announced yesterday that number one was Beyonce. It accompanied this big long article with all of her, you know, cultural impact and, you know, statements on her 25-year-long history.
21:47And the article actually opened up. So there were, I think, like 14 or 15 mentions of Taylor Swift in Beyonce's Billboard article, which, like, seriously, if I'm Beyonce, I'm mad. No. I'd rather, seriously, I'd rather have second place than first where every caveat is about Taylor. And the first paragraph of the whole fucking article ends with literally a statement that says, well, yes, if you're gonna go by the numbers, streams and radio and airplay if you want to get technical Taylor Swift is the biggest but we think Beyonce is because of her impact on culture yeah um I would be mad yeah actually in their opening argument for explaining why they chose Beyonce they actually made a really great case for Taylor I didn't even realize Taylor had all these accolades and what it really came down to they said like cultural impact but also Beyonce has taken up more of this of the quarter century because like literally she's older and Taylor didn't run into the game till like Beyonce's amazing music for 25 years Taylor's been making music for 17 so like they got her on a technicality like just because she's older okay I'm older and then they're like and she has like great music videos and photo shoots I'm like photo shoots yeah they there's definitely a case for Beyonce to have been number one like it's such a subjective thing but the article was like literally written by a swift like it was written by somebody who wanted to cast doubt on Beyonce it was such a negative article no they they wanted to address everything that everyone was going to say in response to this and in doing that they like they invalidated their argument right and then this is also really interesting so Spotify's most streamed artists of 2024 globally were announced Taylor's number one obviously and now just like I hate to compare but like Billboard fucking did this to us yeah and like we everyone's always like don't compare the two greatest women like why did we I wasn't going to it was Billboard who did this because now like I'm like oh Taylor was number one but she's number two um who number one so where's Beyonce Beyonce was the number 41 most artists streamed the year globally and she had an album come out this year a big album okay so that's what's so crazy about it because not every year is going to be number one that's totally fine but if it's a year that you released an album and your cultural impact is what Billboard says it is like you're okay maybe you're not gonna be number one you'll be in top five certainly top 10 so to be number 41 is actually really crazy so yeah now now I'm looking at Beyonce critically no now I'm really I never was I'm really sus now I would have never thought much about this and if if we weren't having this Beyonce Taylor conversation I might not even noticed or made note that number 41 on the list but like that's really crazy I thought people like listened to Cowboy Carter I did was it in your top and they didn't know it wasn't because I listened to it on release week and that's I think how you know like the real difference between like an album and an album that feels like a real album do you listen to it we all listen to hear it but like we're people listening to it on repeat no I listened to it to hear it but then like I listened to it for like a week or two after too like I I digested it there are albums from this year Sabrina Taylor that I am still actively listening to that came out months and months and months ago I haven't really picked up Cowboy Carter since like two weeks past its release Right.
24:50So sounds like some other people didn't either. Now, the party line on social media from like Swifties mostly and people who just don't agree with that Beyonce should be number one is that Jay-Z, you know, cut a check to Billboard to make Beyonce number one. Now, I. I don't think that's true. Me neither. Like one, I don't think it's like feasible. That's not how these things work. But also, like even if he could, like, do I think Beyonce, Jay-Z give a flying fuck what Billboard magazine said in some random article? no and like why does this I doubt I doubt I know that this list why does this billboard list have everyone in a tizzy like on the one hand I feel like they really stepped in it and regret ever doing it because everybody hates them but on the other hand like we've never been talking about billboard more and like their editorial department so I can't tell if this is a win like it's like no all press is good press but we're not talking about them favorably but like seriously this list that's never come out before has everyone in a chokehold about its fairness yeah no and And people are also pointing out, it feels like so many people were left off the list.
25:54I didn't even realize until I saw it on Liz Wood's story. Pink? Right. Where's pink on this list? Now, we know Kelly Clarkson was left off the list, but we're used to people like, you know, taking advantage of our girl and sleeping on her. Pink? Yeah. Pop star, but you put on a bunch of people who are not pop stars. Correct. You put on bands, which is literally the opposite of a pop star. Right. let's go through most artists stream globally because it's just interesting number one oh and the other thing sorry because you reminded me globally and I think this might be why Beyonce is so low on this list is that one of the critiques that I've seen of Beyonce and why she shouldn't have been number one so much is that like we know Beyonce right and we know Taylor and Taylor is to us what she is to a fan in Sweden like her cultural impact is really uniform throughout the globe and what people had said is like Beyonce actually doesn't have that big of a carry in other countries which is why she might be lower on that list I would be curious did they release a U.S.
26:57list that probably but I only have the global one I'm gonna find the U.S. one up in front of me so number one Taylor number two the weekend it's always surprising how high up he is I know and that's pretty consistent year after year it's consistent I've never sought out his music but I know a lot of it like that's impact yeah no but he has like that like you only get to this level if you have like serious serious fans and he just does whether we're whether whether we are them or not it's so crazy number three bad bunny number four drake five billy eilish six travis scott seven peso pluma eight kanye west nine ariana grande ten fide then just skipping down to the people if you're wondering where they are number 19 sabrina number 20 post Malone 23 Rihanna it's crazy that Sabrina had the number one most streamed song Espresso was the most streamed song but she's number 19 I believe the numbers here yeah me too uh also the other artists have like years and years of our albums people are listening to for Sabrina like if they're just listening to one song it doesn't count towards like a lot of minutes by the way so the top 10 artists in the U.S.
28:05I don't know if they released beyond 10 but Beyonce is not in the top 10 for the U.S. Okay. But Metro Boomin is. Metro Boomin is number 17 globally. I don't know who that is but I think I'm old. Also Zach Bryan's 24 and Morgan Wallen's 28. I thought that was interesting. Say it again. Zach Bryan is number 24 globally. Like oh I thought you meant age. Oh no number 24 globally. Zach Bryan he's the biggest country artist globally. And number. He doesn't identify as. Number 28. Country. Is Morgan Wallen who I thought was the biggest country artist globally. Morgan Wallen did not release an album this year.
28:41Zach Bryan did. Okay. And Luke Holmes isn't on this list, which is like kind of disgraceful that you guys aren't spending your time listening to him. The top 10 podcasts in the U.S. is interesting in the sense that there are a couple of people on here I've never heard of. And Theo Vaughn is the third most popular podcast. On Spotify. Oh, right. On Spotify, which is true. But like, have you ever heard of Smosh reads reddit stories no but will you read the top 10 podcasts let's guess you guess okay number one joe rogan correct uh number two maybe armchair expert no the daily no but they both are on this list okay um give me a category comedy or news swirly swirly yeah number two swirly yeah call her daddy you're free you're forgetting yeah okay uh number three theo vaughn you said number four armchair expert no think um you're thinking like shows that we literally have heard of like we've heard of this one but like it's really not our thing so it's news crime no crime junkie yes five armchair expert no the other one yes yes six you're never gonna guess this one okay tell me I literally didn't even know this person had a podcast.
30:00Bill Maher? No, similar. John Stewart? No. Take a right turn. Ben Shapiro? A little more right. Megyn Kelly? More. Oh, not Huberman. No, no. Keep going right? I bet you don't know this person has a podcast. Oh, Tucker Carlson. Yes. Eight? Are we up to eight? You're up to seven. And so someone you've mentioned. Armchair. No. Ben Shapiro. No. Who else did I mention? Megyn Kelly. We talked about him a lot this year. And I already mentioned Bill Maher. Tim Dillon. Hubermeister. Oh, Huberman. Sorry. Okay. Yeah. Number nine. Eight. You're up to. Oh. Just. Armchair. Yes. Yay. And then nine and ten are the shows I hadn't heard of.
30:55Smosh Reads Reddit Stories and The Sean Ryan Show. Okay. Cool. That's fun. I love stats like this. And it sounds like people are having fun with their podcasts. Sort of. Oh, and you know Apple Music did like their own, it's called Apple Music Replay. Taylor was also the number one artist, but I'm really not interested in the rest of their. I would want Apple's podcast. Yes, I actually would love that because that's where most people listen to podcasts. Yeah, so that would be interesting. I'm not interested in their music. Like, yeah, it's just. Yeah. So that's the year in music. It was a very good year.
31:34It was a good year. And it reminded me because the only song in my top five that wasn't children's music was We Can't Be Friends by Ariana Grande. And I just want to say, I love that song. I'm listening to it again, having a renaissance. And she was snubbed by the Grammys. The amount of streams on that song, it's like over a billion compared to other songs that were nominated that didn't have that. and I feel like when they were doing the nominations, she was kind of out of fashion because of the affair and like people weren't about her and like now everyone's loving her because of Wicked and they're like, they were two weeks too late with their, too early with their nominations because I feel like if it was now, now they shut Ariana Grande out of the Grammys, really want to do that?
32:09She's the biggest star in the world right now, cool. And now she's not going to come. Yeah, cool. You played yourself. For, you know, best pop vocal album. She should have been nominated for song of the year with that. That's it. I don't disagree. That's it. I don't disagree. So you played yourself. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? I am. Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan break up after a year of dating. Some good news of the day. Oh, my God. Well, it's so layered. One, like, let's just talk about the breakup. Because we have long kind of been advocates against this relationship. She can do so much better in so many different.
32:48When he was, like, having his salt burn moment and everybody was briefly obsessed with him. And then it turns out like, oh man, he's actually been dating Sabrina Carpenter. And she was really on the rise. I loved it. After that, like it wasn't working for me. I just, I don't like it. Yeah. So they have been like on and off for a while. But now it's coming out that they've decided to take a break. So I guess that means like break up and not get back together. What's the difference between on and off? I don't know. But this seems final and I'm going to take the win. But what's the bit that you wanted to share?
Read the full transcript
33:14So the reason why it seems final is like because something happened. Like he cheated on Briner. Loser. In early November, let me tell you the girl. Early November, disgusting. She's like a streamer, TikToker, whatever. This was all on Dumois. And then like one of the girl's like former friends, Livvy Dunn, you know gymnast? Dunn from our Patreon. She like kind of confirmed it. She like made a TikTok like basically saying, you know, when the person you knew sucks, she's like, now everyone knows. Like she's, everyone's getting involved.
33:50So this is what Demois said. On the closing night of her biggest tour to date in LA, he was busy getting very cozy at San Vicente bungalows with a blonde, semi-famous LA-based influencer who's particularly big on TikTok. Now people did their work and they were doing research and then the girl like kind of confirmed it and it was giving very much that girl who said that she had sex with Tommy Fury. But the only difference was like, this girl wasn't haggard looking. She's actually like very cute and pretty. And like, we wanted Sabrina and Barry to break up and they don't have a kid together. And that's good.
34:25Who, so she's, and that's a girl who's a streamer. Wait, I have to find her name. I don't know why they're making it so hard. And when you keep saying streamer, like she plays games on the internet? What's her name? Oh yeah, Brecky Hill. Yeah. She plays games on the internet. She's like TikTok. I saw somewhere that she was a streamer. I don't really know what that means. She's a social media personality with over 4 million followers on TikTok. So maybe she's just a TikToker. Okay, okay. Okay. And she's friends with Libby Dunn. I think at one point, I think they had like a falling out. I'm team Libby.
34:57A lot. When the gossip gained traction, many users on social media began to criticize Hill for seemingly capitalizing on the situation.
35:08She quickly became a focal point in the speculation after she reposted several TikToks. discussing the breakup. So she was like kind of flexing like, yeah, look, they broke up and it was me, like reposting these videos. It's me. She shared them shortly after. She shared them shortly after the rumors began circulating and then it led to further rumors linking her. So she's like very subtly confirming and like kind of proud of the fact. And while I didn't want these two to break up, like being a homewrecking slut, sorry, is nothing to be proud of. Yeah, like we're still don't like you, but I'm glad they broke up.
35:40And I'm sorry that Breener's going through heartbreak, but you know it's going to make her stronger. I just think it's so crazy. And it's going to lead her to the person she's meant to be with. You can be brainer, right? Top of the world. Top of the heap, right? Literally the most gorgeous girl on the planet. Having success like you've never seen. And you're literally doing charity being with this rat face ugly man, okay? And he has the audacity on a night that's important to you to step out on you. No, it's so crazy. I mean, if you've ever been cheated on, this actually should make you feel good.
36:12Like there's nothing wrong with you. Yeah. No, it's. It happens to the best of us. Yeah. And it's. Jesus. It's a gift because it shows you who this person is and it takes you out of a relationship you shouldn't be in. That's what we're saying. She should not be with this man. And so like. So yeah, everything is like moot because we're happy about them. But you know, wrong is wrong. Yeah. And right is right. It's true. And I'm like. And it shouldn't have gone down this way. It should have gone down because Sabrina woke up one day and took her goggles off. Her Barry goggles. Yeah. And said. I don't want to be here anymore.
36:46Where as a culture did we land on the word slut? Like at one point, like that was getting you canceled. And then Amber Rose, I kind of brought it back. And Taylor has that song. Right. And like, I understand why it's derogatory. I did just use it. But like, is my career over? I think it's okay. And I think it's a good word. It's descriptive. And I kind of like that we had to stop. I had to, I like that we kind of had to stop using it because maybe it was getting overused. And now like if somebody's using it, like you're a slut. Like it feels sharp. Yeah. Whereas maybe one point it was kind of dull.
37:19Like we were overusing it too much. Yeah, yeah. And you were calling people it for like, you know, just being. Like wearing a short skirt. Yeah. Sorry, that doesn't make you a slut. Yeah, just not called for. But it doesn't mean that the word doesn't exist and that it doesn't have a meaning. Right, right. I think the problem, one of the issues was like, what's the male equivalent? And now I feel like we have a few. Like fuck boy. Yeah. And why can't a man be like a whore? Yeah, he can. Yeah. Man whore. We literally have that word. Whore is a good word too. Whore. I also like a hooker. Do I like the word hooker?
37:55That's a good question. Let me think. Let me think. Because, no, it doesn't, it doesn't, like, the word slut feels like a tongue lashing. But I just like, oh, that hooker. Yeah, that's good too. It's good. are you ready for our next story but if they call me a slut i don't like that song though i actually agree when i saw the title of the um bonus tracks for 1989 and there was one called all caps slut exclamation point i thought it was going to be like shout out to my ex slut like something like really pop anthony yeah and it kind of was giving like slow ballad slut oh by the way I just need to make a note because of the chart data that we have.
38:37Let me see if she's here at all because I'm not seeing Charlie XCX. And so. That's actually surprising because Brat was Brat. They have you thinking that Brat took over the world. It was took over the Internet. But yeah, there was a conspiracy theory that like Brat is an industry plan. Brat is an industry plan. Was there a theory outside of me? Yeah, yeah. I need to meet my people. that like Brad's in a simulation or something. Like, because if you look culturally, Brad is everywhere. I mean, it became one of the presidential nominees, like aesthetic for her campaign. So you would think it was like GTPD level and she is noticeably missing.
39:16And they're saying Brad should be album of the year. She wasn't top 50 stream artists globally. No, I didn't know that because I actually would say, you know, Brad kind of was the album of the year because the simulation made me think that. Maybe you just forgot to take your VR goggles off. yeah perhaps so that's just worth noting it is our third story is seriously so crazy and is it Azealia Banks versus Maddie Healy no it's Vicky Gunvalson on the vile files Vicky Gunvalson I'm obsessed was caught trash talking Nick Viles podcast in a shocking hype hot mic moment post interview so Vicky Gunvalson went on the vile files remotely from the beach She called in.
39:57She did a little interview. She was so in Puerto Vallarta. She was whooping it up at Andalese. 100%. And then, you know, they say their goodbyes. And she forgot to end the Zoom call, of course, and starts talking about the show. And they left it in. She goes, that was a favor to her dad. He's got 7 million views. Unclear who's dad, whose views. So at first, I was thinking that she was saying she was doing it as a favor to Natalie, who's Nick's co-host and his wife, Natalie's dad or something. Maybe they know each other. Maybe he's a farmer. but then she was like he's got seven million views so I'm pretty sure they were uh maybe I think Vicky thinks that Natalie is Nick's son a daughter excuse me yeah so I think seven million views has to do with the show then she goes on to explain his credentials she goes I was a guest on his show he's got his own network his own show his own thing I've never heard of him she went on to mispronounce his last name i i heard her say nick biles but i it said maybe she said nick viles either way wrong i just saw the funniest tiktok about nick viles nickname last name pronunciation because you know people always say it's so true like the vile files is probably one of the best titled podcasts on the planet except when you do the proper research and you find out that nick vial's last name is actually nick vial yeah and he's told us we i know that somewhere and anytime he's ever been like they were playing old in his tiktok old clips of him on the bachelor like and it was pronounced everywhere nick vial so it's actually the vial files and it's just like the tiniest it's the tiniest flaw in a otherwise perfect title and it was cracking me up i think like everybody just started everybody ignored the proper pronunciation of his name so we just like leaned into it well they're calling me vial anyway yeah i might as well take the vial files the vial Fial Fiales is very fun to me.
41:47Now, the internet is divided on whether or not Nick should have kept in this hot mic moment. Because at the end of the day, Vicky didn't say anything outright terrible. Just like, you know, every time you, first of all, I so relate to Vicky on this. Anytime I hang up, whether it's like someone I know, customer service, and I'm on the beach, especially having a cocktail, like I'm saying something nasty about the person I just hung up with. Like, sorry, it's the human experience. She really didn't even say anything that bad. and so if this were us we would like send the recording to literally everyone we know but we would not have shared it like publicly as a part of the episode right I don't think so but I also feel like at the end of the day this it's kind she didn't say anything bad like this it was just like an awkward moment the only people she was offending were them like it's up to them what they want to do it's not like she said something and like they're posting and it could end her career and it's like she right like so I don't really have an issue with them posting it it's Also so Vicky.
42:41I'm sure she's cracking up. I don't think she's like hiding in her room embarrassed. I think she's like, oops. I don't have an issue with them posting it either. I do wonder if this, because they're a guest based show, if this like has potential repercussions to like turn people off. I don't think so because I really think most people like can be okay to hang up the phone. And they said on this like. This is so housewives. They said here like the OC women, I think they have a history of like not ending phone calls and then going on to talk shit. Like it's so congruous with them. I genuinely think it's so harmless of course it's so cringe but I don't think it will I don't think it's bad look for vile files and honestly it's such a funny moment everyone's talking about it we're talking about Vicky and again like I only have like funny thoughts about this I it doesn't make me like dislike her or anything she's just hysterical and of course like she you know she sells insurance and she's like 50 plus like she's not listening to the vile files I didn't expect her to be I do think she even knows at this moment I mean it's gone so viral there's a chance she doesn't even know about this yeah she's on vacation that's true I think it's so funny I'm surprised shit like this doesn't happen more often but I guess like really how hard is it to hang up a zoom yeah and she had because even if you don't know how to hang up like it could have been that like she didn't hang up but someone from Nick's team did automatically but nobody hung up right right she said that she um made it clear she did also make it clear early in the interview that she didn't want to be there because she um she said she canceled the interview and I didn't know that they didn't cancel it.
44:08And she's had 400 meetings. So she had to like go through with the, it's like. No, she sounds like a dream guest, honestly. Like. She's very authentic. Authentic. And aren't we always asking for authenticity? Vicky's gonna Vicky. Yeah. And they weren't offended. Natalie was like, she's an icon. This is hysterical. She was like, I was sweating. And yeah, until the clip is over, I'm like clenching. What? No. Because by the way, in the privacy of what, she's obviously sitting with like a friend or a boyfriend, like in the privacy of like a, you could say anything. the things she could have said after hanging up for an interview she didn't want to be on like it's actually really not that bad no if I did an interview that like for some reason I found offensive like she obviously like had a problem with this interview and like I really didn't want to do it and I hung up and I'm sitting with Ben I would have been like these fucking morons like I would have said something like that like so you know what it's could have been so much worse so I think this is actually just funny and fun all around yeah for the most part harmless yeah are you ready for our next story yeah we have also real housewives of beverly hills recap i totally forgot to like mention that at the top of the show yes our next story is not funny and fun all around because chloe kardashian claims that an old therapist leaked private information from her session to a tabloid and that's why she did not go to therapy for years and instead sought therapy in the gym so she oh my god sat down with bustle for an interview published on tuesday and she talks about how she turned to the gym as a form of therapy after being betrayed by her therapist she revealed she started working through her mental health struggles with exercise after her former counselor allegedly breached doctor patient privilege amid her divorce from lamar she said i remember i was going to therapy and the next thing i knew something private i told my therapist was on a tabloid and i knew that my therapist disclosed this information to a tabloid because there's no way this could have gotten out there she did not disclose exactly what her therapist leaked about the marriage um and she said the traumatic experience kick-started her of her fitness.
45:58It ruined her relationship with therapy for nearly a decade. She said, I stopped going to therapy and started going to the gym. I needed a release, but I did not trust anyone else anymore. And the place that I felt the safest was the gym. She called the experience very jarring and sort of unbelievable and insisted there's not a chance in the world that it came from anyone else. She refused to seek help for years as a result of the betrayal until her older sister Kim finally convinced her to give it another shot. She said, I started when I was 39, noting that her new doctor is really lovely. She said, I really like her.
46:25It's actually Kim's therapist. Kim was really adamant. I was like, I'll do this for you. I dragged my feet and then I was like, wow, okay, this is good. I needed this. Turns out she had a lot to unpack from the years. Her therapist was like, I think you should come three days a week. She was like, you really need to be here. And it all worked out. I mean, I feel like this is like regular people's worst nightmare. I think a lot of people don't go to therapy because like the concept of bearing like the worst parts of yourself to a human being who technically could run and tell someone is like a real fear although you know you're kind of irrelevant no one cares what's going on in your brain expect that that's a fear of of a top tier fear I think it is I think it is I think it keeps people from doing therapy just like saying the quiet part out loud like things you've never said yeah well that's just hard period let alone then having to be concerned about a breach of trust but I wonder if this keeps celebrities out of therapy definitely I think definitely because I think it crosses people's mind who aren't celebrities and And so that fear is probably tenfold when you actually, your thoughts would be interesting to other people, lots of other people.
47:25And, you know, that HIPAA and that confidentiality, it's kind of like, yeah, it's the law, right? But, like, there's something, like, you're not handcuffed. Like, this person has free will. They could abide by the HIPAA or not. Like, it's a lot of trust. They could lose their license. Yeah, of course. No, there are consequences. She should have soon. But it's not like, I am sure, I am 100 % sure that woman is no longer a practicing therapist. Good. because also she's like running in fabulous circles where she's getting recommended to chloe kardashian she's working with other people of note and i don't think chloe would just let this lady yeah also i think it makes sense to like share a therapist with your family members because then the therapist is like actually a really good picture of everything that's going on and like you can't just like talk about the other person and they just think that other person's like the devil and never meet them and it's like oh if she really has all sides separately she can give informed advice not that that's not that she's going to therapy because of kim but i actually think it's like if she's really in your world it's it it sounds like a good idea do you remember that episode of kardashians keeping up with the kardashians like on e where they had like a family therapist come and they all like rob everyone caitlin they had everyone come sit down i think it turned into a referendum on rob rob yeah yeah i do that was like seriously you i don't know what they got paid i think it was just a regular episode of the kardashians you couldn't pay me yeah like that and I think it's very common for people to go to different versions of therapy counseling group therapy on reality tv and I know it's like staged but you're still talking about real things to me not only do I as a viewer like I genuinely find it uninteresting but like it's so personal I wish they would stop doing that I wish they would stop doing that like it's not even it's not even juicy no and it's like when someone's finally going to therapy and it's like you're doing it on camera that's not it's kind of against like it's the opposite of what it should be and I also don't give a shit.
49:15Right. One of the first like memories I have of watching somebody go to therapy was Kourtney Kardashian was like a very early adapter. She was like one of the only girls going to therapy in her family and she would always film it. I'm like that's really so crazy. Also something similar this is the second thing that sort of like HIPAA violation has happened to the Kardashians. Remember when Scott entered like a rehabilitation program and it was COVID so it was all done on Zoom and somebody took a screenshot and sent it to like a tabloid. Yeah. Also I feel like I remember Jax Taylor going to therapy.
49:40I don't care. Yeah. When people go to couples therapy on camera for the first time, it's like, it's not a good sign. You know, you're not serious about the work. It's so true. And as a viewer, I can't stress enough how uninteresting it is. Yeah. I really don't give a fuck. It's a lose-lose. I guess they get to fill minutes. No, I feel so awkward. I'm just like, please, get me out of here. Yeah. No, and it's like, if it's something that you would share to the entire world, what, you have no inner thoughts or you're not sharing your inner thoughts. And in that case, it's pointless. Yeah, that. Are you ready for our fifth and final story?

Our fifth and final story, a little documentary news because Aaron Rodgers Enigma is coming to Netflix Aaron Rodgers has a new docuseries on Netflix that will be chronicling his time and his comeback from his Achilles heel injury pass like seriously have you seen the Jets they are stinking it up like sorry Aaron Rodgers there's no happy ending to the story like yeah he came back healthier and what to play worse than ever like the Aaron Rodgers story in New York is so depressing and like help us seriously you were supposed to help that is so funny so the trailer dropped for aaron rogers enigma is what it's called okay erica jane it's okay churchill it's a three-part that's that erica jane quote i'm an enigma wrapped in riddle and cash is a derivative of a churchill quote which is why she's our queen interesting yeah um it's a three-part documentary series that will come out on december December 17th he talks about losing friendships family due to his views he talks about how it was heartbreaking he shares about his Achilles heel and then he also talks about the future of his career and he talked a lot about in the trailer like about RFK asking him to be his VP pick and how when he was out down and out he had like two choices like to heal and play football still or run for vice president no I seriously this is so unserious I'm like so over Aaron Rodgers like That is so crazy.
56:24I thought you were obsessed. That's your boy. He was cute. That's your boy. He was really cute. Like his celebrity connections. Like I loved when he dated Danica. I loved of course the Olivia Munn. I loved the Shailene Woodley. And then when he was coming to New York, I was like woohoo. And he's just like kind of done nothing but disappoint me. And every time he's like in the news doing interviews, he's like on Zoom in this like turnt dark cellar. Like talking shit. Yeah, like looking so fabiscita and like sourpuss. Like he's just like really pissing me off. I'm going to watch this documentary because I know.
56:51I feel like a lot is said about Aaron Rodgers. And I don't watch those interviews of him on Pat McAfee talking shit for a living. But like. He's just like going on Pat McAfee like angry all the time. Like just roasting everyone. And then I only see like quotes. I'm like, oh, Aaron, that's not nice. But I really. No. And by the way, let me tell you where Aaron Rodgers had me. When he was beefing with Jimmy Kimmel. Like obsessed. I literally dreamed to be. That's peak Aaron for you? That's peak Aaron. And I'll just kind of went downhill after there. Like seriously. And the way like he had this miraculous recovery.
57:20and I was like, he's going to bring, Jackie, seriously, the Jets haven't won a game in weeks. Like, what are you doing if not helping? Well, I'll find out in the documentary. And I want to hear it from Aaron's self. There's much ado about Aaron. Do you think he's going to talk about Jordan and JoJo? That's a great question. I think it would have been in the trailer, but I'm going to hold space. That's a reason to tune in. That's a reason to tune in. Maybe a little Shailene. He also, then a big part of this documentary is him talking about his spiritual journey. okay like I said this is like where people when they go to therapy on reality tv like they lose me I'm uninterested yeah but I'm going to give it a shot so that's December 17th and it's like a good thing to watch with your husband or boyfriend that's like yeah that's good for everyone so I'm here for it I'm here for it I like these docu-sets that's like I can get into those like the Martha one like I really I like it's quit Ashley Madison like three episodes two episodes and we're done.
58:16I learned something great. Yes, I think the issue is that to carry a documentary, I think you need to be like beaming with personality. And I think Martha was so successful at that. I'm sure they had tons of footage to leave on the cutting room floor. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm just judging. But like Aaron Rodgers doesn't seem like the type of guy who's going to like dazzle me through the screen. Like he just doesn't. I don't think he's going to dazzle, but I don't think he's boring. As you said, like he hops online. Do you think he affies boring? I think he affies boring for sure. Like him or dislike him.
58:45Like everyone's always talking. talking about him so if you're an iron swirly which i thought that we were um december 17th he lost me like when he started like he's literally like not good at his job so if you're gonna like talk so much shit that's fine but you have to like back it up is there a chance that is it really his playing that's sinking the team or is it everyone else no i mean they're not a great team but like you have allegedly like one of the league's greatest quarterbacks you should And I guess like Tom Brady always made it work. Right. Like these men, they can run. Like the other, there's not much for them to do.
59:17Like everybody knows a quarterback is like kind of the most important one. Aaron should go to the 49ers because like what they need is a star quarterback. But the thing is, I don't, I actually don't think, I think actually Brock Purdy is probably a better current quarterback than Aaron Rodgers. Yeah. But the thing about the 49ers is that they have like spent all their money on talent across the field and they don't have that like, you know, franchise quarterback, but they are so amazing because they have so much amazing talent but if they had an amazing quarterback they would have won the Super Bowl that's like what I've heard even though I love Brock and if anyone says a bad word about him like I will come for you even though I agree and I there are two quarterbacks who I remember I don't know if they were the same year but like there was so much hype for them Joe Burrow when he's like so handsome but also that cutie Trevor Lawrence who in my opinion looks like Kylie Kelsey the two of them are like yes like if you ever look at them faces kind of giving like Hannah Brown and um and Whitney's husband's dad Trevor Lawrence Kylie Kelsey and Trevor Lawrence have the same exact face like you'll see and they also have the same hair oh cute because he has like long blonde hair I've never seen him with his helmet off no he's cute and his wife is expecting like they're really cute um there was a lot of hype there were like these huge college football players and then they got drafted and like to like bad teams so like they're kind of wasting away on these two no I'm sorry to like everyone on the green and orange teams but like weenie one of them needs to go to the diners yeah but they don't have like the budget because they pay everyone else a lot and that works for them christian yeah yeah um what was the story oh iron rogers yeah so speaking of television let's dive into our real housewives of beverly hills weekly recap last night was another episode and like seriously two moments they've been teasing like this season thus far we're both in the episode and they were both so anticlimactic.
1:01:06Like one, Dorit falling. How many times do we have to watch it? Like it was actually embarrassing for her. And two, God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason. Listen. Yeah. No, the fact that they hit us with a to be continued over that dinner spat, it's like really not boding well for the season. The bar is in hell. Like it's, I understand you want to drag the rest of the fight till the next episode, but like don't give us to be continued. I'm not on the edge of my seat and I did want to see previews for next week. That's the thing that's annoying about TBC. We don't get previews for next week.
1:01:32And like, don't you want me to, like I need to be a little titillated because I like the women of Beverly Hills. Like even when they're just sitting around the table, like they're fun to watch. But this season like isn't great. I don't really know how much better it's going to get, especially because the cornerstone of the season is the fight between Kyle and Dorit, which should be like meaty because they were really close. They've been on forever. The issue though is that the reason why they're feuding is very confusing. So it's hard for us to like galvanize and get on someone's side because I don't know what the fuck's going on.
1:02:03Same, except that I felt last night at that dinner was the most clarity we've gotten up until this point where they were pulling out examples because we knew the BravoCon thing, which was so nothing. And I'm glad they showed that clip of Erica. I'm glad Erica's like taking a little bit of a stand while also staying in the middle. I'm glad they showed her reaction because it's such a nothing burger. And I felt like that conversation, and I'm sure we'll see the other half of it, was such a bad look for Kyle because she looked so small and so stupid. Every example, and then they're cutting to the clip.
1:02:29What was the second one? Oh, well, you didn't speak up for Teddy. are you fucking okay clearly kyle had a horrible time at bravo con and decided to take it all out on it was dorit's fault and she's like not letting it go it was such a bad episode for kyle because i also think the sit down with mauricio was so awkward and i think we got a little bit more clarity into the current status of their relationship which is that like mauricio's out and kyle would be in if if he would be it's not even clear then it makes it so confusing with morgan wade like they split up you know mauricio i think had a foot out the door but like kyle was also pushing him out the door and now it's like even if she couldn't even answer the question like do you want to get back together with mauricio because she doesn't know and and like they're saying he's going to greece which we know there's some pictures of him with the girl so i think that probably comes out next week and that's going to be like earth shattering for kyle because she just thinks he's like living in his apartment and it is very it's a weird spot that they're in yeah so I felt like the whole episode was just like Kyle's so hard to root for and I like you have sympathy that she's going through the same like so is Dorit and Dorit seems like her situation seems toxic now like her and PK aren't getting along he has this alcohol problem the kids are losing their mind her kids are younger her situation like not that I would ever want to be in either of them but I'd rather be in Kyle's and you know Dorit and PK definitely have some like fucking money issues that they've never really fully dived into and a divorce will exasperate that so there's a lot going on in Dorit and I feel like she's keeping it together for the most part and I do feel in the argument like she is right like I think she has a lot to be mad at Kyle about and I think behind the scenes the way she explains it I can actually see their friendship being like unbalanced and like Kyle's in charge and she's just like kind of tired of being a doormat yeah and it's like Dorit could make an infraction and Kyle would punish her differently than she would punish anyone else in the group so when Kyle's like you're acting so different Kyle Dorit's like yeah I'm not letting you push me around anymore I'm like that's clearly an issue for you so let's get into it um what the hell was like when it was brought up twice by Sutton and Garcelle and you know I love Garcelle like sometimes she's like a dog with a bone with the wrong things like her and Sutton being like so offended that Boz and Dorit were having a conversation at the end of the table like and then Garcelle's like I mean give us a chance to get to know Boz fucking try Dorit went to her house make an effort Dorit is talking at the end of the table to Boz about her personal life meanwhile every time Dorit speaks you say she talks too much but she should share these personal details with you even though you don't like listening to her speak that was like so transparent to me it's like you either just want to hear about Dorit's pain or you just want to find something some fine fault with Dorit but it's a long it's a long table it's not even a circular table there's gonna be conversations at one end and conversations at the other and like sorry that you're at this end that and then they brought it up again like trying to make it seem like Dorit was doing something wrong like Dorit's obviously going through something she's talking to the person across the table for her like why she's in a bad stressful mood.
1:05:16And I actually don't think it's weird that Dorit like met this person for the first time and like unloaded on her. I think that that's oddly like very common. And everyone in the group has like, so they know PK, they're like, everyone has their preconceived notions. Like this is just like a fresh person who seems really sound of mind and seems smart. And like, maybe she would give good advice. Like I could see you just like being drawn to her energy. It's literally not weird. No, and Garcelle's saying she's like getting close to Bose because Bose doesn't know like Dorit or have history with her.
1:05:41Like that's what someone like, I don't know, who's so on the outs, like like Danielle Stab would do who it's like I'm literally have no other friends in this group so I'm gonna be to cling a life raft friend a new person that's literally not what's going on here they obviously just have like things in common connection and that's like literally what happens when you meet people you either have a connection with them or you don't and let me tell you something else Garcelle was doing that was bothering me like and you know I ride for but like sometimes she's really hard to defend like a lot of the women were doing this like in their confessionals like making fun of Kathy's like afternoon of relay races meanwhile they cut to them on the beach the women are laughing I've never seen them have so much fun and first of all you know that's like my dream afternoon like playing duck duck goose like I love games like that and I actually like inspo I think Kathy is so funny and it really the whole point of the trip was like Kyle's going through a lot Dorit's going like just to get everyone to laugh and relax it's not supposed to be so serious mission accomplished and everybody in their confessionals like being like this what are we 11 like it's funny stop like everybody was having a good time yeah they were it was really funny and the trip looked amazing I'm glad that Kathy planned the trip I like seeing Kathy doing Kathy things and I loved those hats I thought everybody who put the hat on looked amazing in the hat I agree Erica said it was small on her head she looked so like the minute the lampshade came down everyone looked fantastic I want one there was a sad moment in the episode when they were at Kathy's kitchen like getting ready to get on the sprinter and Jennifer Tilly comes in with like her sick Louis Vuitton travel cases and Erica's like looking it wasn't even so much envy it was kind of like a longing like there was a time where she could have she had a relationship with Louis Vuitton if she wanted a custom you know Hollywood Walk of Fame hat box like it was kind of like a glimpse into a former life and she lives well and she could buy herself nice things but that's another level um and it made me sad for her yeah I love her so much I want she's having an amazing season I want just the best for her she's worked so hard to like sustain a lifestyle like to do to live the way that she used to live on like a single income you know not stealing from victims lifestyle orphans and widows right so she's just so great she's a really great friend she's really a voice of reason I wish she would like get involved a little bit more but I understand like she had a couple really hard seasons where she was the center of conversation all the time and I think right now she's just like okay you guys take the heat for a second she's happy taking a back seat yeah I need I need a billionaire businessman beau for her like today yeah me as well even though I don't even know she would like go for that anymore she's just been so burned out she's scarred so we found out about jelly for Tilly and her income her husband was the Simpsons she has 10 % of the Simpsons and no one thought it was she didn't say 10 % she just said a piece oh did she not say 10 % no and when they were getting divorced it was just like a popular show they had no idea was gonna go on for what is it like their 45th season the only thing that confuses me is her house being so small I guess she's just one person like how big of a house do you need but like if I owned a chunk of the Simpsons like I would have a bigger house but you know different strokes different strokes for different folks I don't find and I just I love a rich person's on on this show so I have no problem with her I don't find like she adds much I think she's like a little yeah but um I'll I'll hold off and until I see more yeah no and this expectation that we all know and love Jennifer Tilly like can we get we got to know her a little bit last night so like the context was good but like still I don't know her who is this person I think her ex-husband by the way and they didn't mention this but I saw it on Twitter he has passed away.
1:08:56I'm sad. I think he passed away in 2015 from cancer which I thought was odd that they didn't show that. Yeah. Maybe her and Bo's will connect. Perhaps. So it was like a Nothing Burger episode but nice to see the gals like being rich. Gotta go to Oceanside. Like learning about new destinations, being pargy and fashionable. Yeah. It's always a pleasant watch because of that. And I think they should wear this hat to the pardon night. A thousand percent.
