Two Tampons, One Girl: Friday, January 10th, 2025

0:00Good morning, millennials. Welcome back to the toast and happy Friday. I've got it, Claude. Happy Friday to you. It doesn't hit in the way that the original does. I know, but at least we can sing. At least we can be joyous because it's the end of senior year. It's graduation day. Your independence day. Whoa, like seriously. first full week of 2025 in the bag congrats to all the grads it's so true it's probably the weekiest meatiest week of the year it's wiki wiki feet like it's the weekiest week it's the weekiest week it's so weak oh i'm like the word you're looking for is the weakest but no you're saying no it's w-e-e-k-y it's so weak it's so wikipedia i hate people who say wikipedia it's like it's wikipedia or like wiki feet wiki feet are you okay no but this week was super week you know but you're saying something entirely different you're not saying w-i-k-i no i'm saying it was very much a week it was a meaty one a chewy one and we made it through and that's that's fantastic yeah it was a lot a lot going on i think in the world and everyone's lives and culture like it was kind of a big week it was I was just thinking that as I was doing the stories today because the stories have kind of petered out by Friday which they often do but mostly because like especially in Hollywood like everyone is concerned with the fires and it's just like wow this week started with such a bang and what a turn it took no I know I was thinking the same thing I was taking a look at this week at a glance because I was trying to choose my queenie and weenie of the week and I was like oh my god that was Monday no and what's so crazy is the golden globes were on sunday like everyone in that room is now in a different probably evacuated or have lost their home so it's just really the difference a week makes i have now ended up on the side of tiktok of people like returning to the sites of their houses that are completely burned down and it's like literally so crazy but they're sharing um things that survived like things that are like really well made so spencer pratt shared that his all clad um like dutch oven completely intact like it's like the only thing he was able to pull out of his house this girl she's going viral remember when that girl's car exploded and her and her stanley um this girl's uh the laney wilson x stanley collab is like the only thing from her house that was completely untouched and totally fine that is so crazy and the video went viral now everybody's like remember stanley gave that girl a car they're gonna give this girl a house for sure yeah for sure well hopefully like things start to get better um they haven't yet but hopefully the weekend brings some good news some change in winds yeah a miracle what they need is a miracle they need like from up high rain or wind change like yeah because it's just it's so big it's so big sending the utmost love and just everything to everybody who is either evacuated hunkering down has already you know experienced loss it's just a really it's a tough week and so I don't know we have a lot of listeners in that area so I hope you guys are doing okay same we're here for you I've seen some people be like the toast not to make about us but they did no never it was just like it was like one hour of just like joy calm and joy and a little bit less anxiety so that's what we're here to do yes and in that spirit and for everyone everywhere who's having a hard day yes of course not limited to just one state of course people can use the toast and that's like everything about us um but speaking of you know whatever you were just saying i have a crazy thing to tell you i meant to tell you this So, you know, my husband, Ben, love my life, has recently, he's kind of been known over the years for his glasses, right?

3:47He wears glasses and he was for a while, like very against getting contacts. Mostly because he like couldn't hack it. He couldn't figure out how to put them in. His eyes would get irritated. But like a year ago, he made a commitment. He was like, I don't want to wear glasses all the time. And he made a commitment to learn and just to like suffer. And he now wears contacts most days. It's like this big transition he's been through actually. and I do worry about him sometimes because wearing contacts is like requires a lot of maintenance and a lot of like organization and even the way like when we were going to your house he was just like throwing loose contacts and I'm like I don't know I don't have a good feeling about this it requires like a level of maturity and and control and organization that I know he doesn't possess so I was kind of waiting for like the first thing to happen and it's happened yesterday Ben was like really like dizzy he was like seeing like blurry he was wearing two pairs of contacts he had literally forgotten to take out a whole pair and then woke up and put in a second pair it's kind of like that's really crazy and it reminded me of the time I accidentally put in a second tampon that's where my mind went but I will say this is kind of like that's really bad and scary but this is kind of the second contact infraction because let's not forget when he left a contact on the stair in my house you think like that makes you special I find three contacts a day no by the way and it's actually crazy I could tell you if Ben has more multiple contacts in his eyes based on the amount of contacts that I find the nightstand the toilet the shower I found them there isn't a place I haven't found them I found them on a can of soda in my fridge okay so is he gonna keep going down this path what about LASIK well I had then sat him down and I was like I hate to be such like his mom you know not that's not like a slight towards Ava like to be someone's mother like yeah so I have to teach them a lesson but like he was not the whole like double contact thing was funny and I was like it's actually not um you could have hurt yourself first of all and I just feel like he wasn't taking it seriously enough I was I was actually being like such a lecturer but oh no I mean you could go blind like you can't just be throwing things in your eyes like that now LASIK I think Ben also really does like wearing his glasses especially from like a style POV he wore his glasses to our wedding like so I think he likes having the option he has discussed LASIK I have fallen down a rabbit hole of LASIK eye surgery conspiracy theories and for that reason um I have something like against LASIK even though I don't have enough facts like I'm not going to share what I like I don't know much what's what are I've never even heard that there's a anti-LASIK movement what do they say you know they just the kind of the big argument is that the world's leading optometrists all wear glasses like good enough for thee but not for me okay but is there anything more than that yes there is there is there is just tell me what's the i can't remember okay i can't remember oh you can't oh my god i thought you like really just didn't want to wade into controversy i'm like just throw it out there and by the way i remember our dad growing up got lasik and it was like the most amazing best thing that ever happened to him so i know it like changes people's lives dana holdsberg got lasik and she is a changed woman but it has changed her life ended up on like randomly like multiple times on tiktok people talking about the dark side of lasik but you can't remember exactly i can't i'm sorry i can't remember okay okay that's fine you'll tell me offline so i brought it up i'm not hiding it from you i don't have to tell you anything just look it up when you remember okay when i remember like that ever happens i'm gonna can i google it yeah be like what be the conspiracy what's a negative lasik i'll just search conspiracy yeah even though google won't give me that i'll have to go to like no i feel like with the new um google ai what's it called at the top oh gemini our friend gem she tells me everything i need even she's a gem no matter how controversial i love that i hope she doesn't get corrupted no she is everything although she does sometimes spread misinformation okay so here are the debunked lasik myths so you know that's the real one yeah of course they're quote debunked one physicians would never have lasik on their own eyes that's the leading kind of um well i also feel like it's a surgery that if you see it you can't do it like it's really a weird looking surgery no i don't agree i'm gonna i'm not gonna go with that one that one's just like that's not real two contacts are safer than lasik okay but why is lasik unsafe lasik it significantly increases the risk of glare and halos yes yes yes but that's like did you see this i saw recently this isn't giving me what i thought it was going to give me like i saw recently the root canals can lead to breast cancer yeah i saw that too on the skinny confidential like okay rotten too yeah i again like i said i don't know enough about the LASIK controversy to wade in but you were the one who wanted to bring Gemini into this and like now we've said it so to answer your question originally like dry eye is extremely common I'm sorry these are not like why Ben hasn't gotten LASIK that's a part of it I don't know maybe he should that's a part of it like I'm really not in the mood what's the lesson here because like Ben is always gonna be Ben so what's the lesson what's the takeaway I tried to instill a lesson in him being like he doesn't even have like an area where he keeps the contacts like they're just loose he's just really crazy about it and it's like I don't even know like teenagers wear contacts so like you have to just stay on top of it and he's so he's just so relaxed I just feel like contacts are such a habitual thing it's actually not something that you can add to your life later in life like you either are like Margo like starting contacts when you're eight and like she does it in her like she knows yeah it's so innate but for ben to like pick this up at 30 like it's just it's not in his muscle memory it's muscle memory uh-huh i think he should go back to glasses that's what i'll say okay i understand lasik would not be for him because like what then he's gonna get fake glasses because he still needs to wear glasses he's the nerd who takes off his glasses and everybody realizes he's handsome when you for the first and for me the only time i ever put in two tampons like what was your immediate thought or immediate takeaway so i've never done it oh however like it it the idea haunts me i'm always like when back in the day and i feel like we also need to talk about tampons at some point please not right now like you and your free-flowing like please not right now but like you guys everyone in like has reached enlightenment so the girlies aren't wearing let me tell you about the time i took out two tampons of my vagina.

10:02But no, I just want to say like when I, and also I'm someone who changes tampon every time I pee. So like there's a lot of tampon changing. It was always like, oh my God, did I take out my tampon? Like you get drunk? Oh my God, what's going on with my tampon? When you are drunk on your period, changing tampons in the middle of the night, that is where things get really tricky. And if you've ever taken a compact mirror, like literally up your vagina, like you know. I was at a camp friend's house the first and only time I had two tampons in. and I was shocked. First at like the size of my own vagina.

10:35I was like literally how is that possible? I just thought. Just wait till you have a baby. I know. I just thought like the inside of my vagina was big enough for one tampon and one tampon only like it wouldn't physically fit and I guess I'd forgotten to take one out and then put a second one in and actually I was at the perfect place because I remember the girl whose house I was at she was like oh it's like not a big deal. My mom wears two tampons because I guess she like had a bigger vagina from like having babies. I'm sorry. No her mom doesn't. That's what she had said. And I was like, oh, okay.

10:59So it's not like I've damaged myself. That's the crazy part about this story. I was lied to? Not like whether you were lied to or if this girl's mom is seriously wearing two tampons. They make bigger tampons. Yeah, but why would she lie? I feel like she just didn't know. Why can't she wear two tampons? No, that's not a thing. That's not a thing. That's so dangerous. So interesting how that moment like informed so much of my like vaginal health. You think you grow up and start wearing two tampons? No, not that you grow up, but like some women who like, you know, had babies or whatever. Yeah, they throw in two.

11:32Okay, maybe I'm misinformed. No, no, maybe you're not. Maybe you're not. That is the craziest thing I've ever heard. Well, she said her mom did it. And so it just made me feel better in the moment because I felt so irresponsible for letting one sit extra long. TSS? Well, I'm glad that she could alleviate and unburden you with that little factoid. But I'm pretty sure it's so unsafe and that people aren't doing it intentionally. yeah actually reminds me of a story a friend of mine told me where she was having sex with someone and they found a tampon classic that's just a classic friend of mine story literally I feel like everybody has a friend who was literally like getting bucked and they found the tampon yeah yeah so I guess we'll talk about tampons at a later date it's obviously not top of mind for you right now because you're not having your period how's that going it's it's actually not going in the way that I thought it would that's always been something where I'm like yeah being pregnant is hard but like one of the few like like benefits like to your well-being is like well you're not getting your period it hasn't even crossed my mind what I'm going through is so much harder and worse than a period like my period could never I just had the craziest thought like something that I wouldn't something that I would never say on the show but like now that I've said it I just feel like it's so funny what now that I've thought it like today i'm dressed like an unused tampon head to toe gray and you're dressed like a used one okay i am before and after i'm dressed like a used one on day one because like it's giving old blood and i love this line of thinking you're dressed like the one that got stuck up yeah but let me ask you a question your tampons are gray white cotton you know yeah you're wearing gray to be clear I know but like still it's giving tampons a thousand percent I love like describing clothing in reference to different menstrual phases like remember my old period sweater that had like all those different shades of red we it's in the basement going in the toast museum yes do you have that sweater no I wish I'm pretty sure I and I was just talking about this with been yesterday like when I lost all that weight I was like I will never be fat again like and everything that was bigger than a size medium legitimately went in the trash to goodwill or to like somebody I know the way I would kill someone for a piece of that clothing right now like I have just sort of given up I'm wearing like things that don't flatter me things that don't fit I'm not buying new clothes I got so ahead of myself on Ozempic and getting pregnant through a total wrench in there and I knew I was like god willing one day gonna get pregnant and I just like I was in such control of my body back then no I was like listen I have control of my health I work out every day I will be one of those pregnant women who eats well and works out like and I will just have a bump and I will just get like you know a big crew neck my toast merch will cover me for a few months like that's actually what I thought meanwhile I'm like actually fat I'm not even like having my bump is whatever my body is huge like I'm so the opposite of the type of pregnant woman I thought I was gonna be well I suggested to you earlier this week um an idea that we would also vlog but i feel like it's where we do closet swap where like i make a box of like 10 things for you yeah like pregnancy items that i think you would like which i should just do anyway because it sounds like you need it you know i just like hate bringing things into my home okay but you need clothes why the size medium fits great or maybe like maybe you could partner with some some brands to send you stuff like hatch no like i'm fine like they're really generous i'm not bothered by the way that i look i think other people might be a little perturbed in the streets but for me like fuck it you know oh okay that's not the vibe that i was getting i was hearing like complaining i wasn't complaining i was just remarking on a regret of mine like throwing away all those clothes like i would be in a much better place right now if i had my whole i was plus size for so many years i invested in like actually good shit and then i was like i'll never need it again yeah spoiler alert she needed it again i i don't think that should be a regret of yours like I don't think so okay what's your biggest regret yourself a few things my biggest regret well you know regrets we wouldn't be where you are now regrets I've had a few so of course every regret has led me to my where I am so like I have smaller regrets you know like for the color that I registered on my wedding registry for the Dutch oven that I got like I wish I did a different color yeah small like not life-changing regrets of course the teen tour that was a big mistake my big regret that wouldn't have changed the trajectory of my life I just would have had a better summer you never should have been on that teen tour Jackie never should have been on everyone knows Israel based teen tours just everyone knows about my teen tour regret I definitely told the story on the patreon before but I went on a teen tour one summer and I didn't have a good time and I wish I didn't go you also left early and I did leave early after giving it like a fair shot and now in hindsight i can recognize all the reasons why it wasn't for me like why i shouldn't have gone but at the time i thought it was a good idea of course like all your friends were going so it's like how bad could it be yeah it was bad you guys know my biggest regret it's not getting in that cop car that one time i i won't tell the story again not a life changing regret of course there are so many other things i don't know i could have pursued a job in the field documentary no a job in the field like maybe that would have like really tickled my or or instead of becoming like a comedy pop culture podcaster it would have propelled me to like true crime okay so it would have changed the course of your life but I don't think you're interested in changing the course of your life that's why like of course I've made mistakes in my life that I wish I didn't you know but they've led me to where I am right now so I can't regret them too much it's a very healthy outlook that's why my regrets are as far as things I would change are small.

17:28Okay. That's beautiful. I think so. Yeah. Well, should the two tampons get to tamponing and do what we came to do here today? I think so. I think that we should. We talked enough about periods to last me five years. Yeah, well, I'm not going to be able to talk about my period for quite a bit more time, and I know a lot of people are missing my monthly check-ins. Right. Right. But at least, like, the pregnant women are getting pregnancy check-ins. So true. And they feel seen. At the toast, we make sure everybody feels represented and heard. We try. We try our best.

21:24And like, I feel like the theme of today's sponsors is like all the fun things Turdy can't do right now. Cause you know, I recently got into skiing and it was one of the things like I challenged myself to do last year and I did and it made me feel so good.

Our first story is just a bit of a fire update in the celeb world that also is kind of like leading to new interesting developments.

23:05Of course, a lot of celebrities have lost their homes and evacuated. And the list is like growing. But now some celebs are like hunkering down together. One, and it's giving like reconciliation, question mark first. Peter Focinelli and Jenny Garth. Peter Focinelli, Jenny Garth with her husband though, he's kind of in the way, fled to her ex-husband Peter Focinelli's house. Ben Affleck went to J-Lo's house. Oh my God, he did? Harry and Meghan are opening their home to friends to stay with them. And I just, I feel like this is the beginning of, could be something. This is how things start. Like when people locked down together in COVID, what was it?

23:40Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson. Yeah. Did they lock down together? Is that how they got together? Maybe, but it definitely accelerated people's relationships. Yes. Yeah. So that's sweet. That is sweet. Very nice of people to open their homes. Of course, if they're in a safe place and they have friends who have evacuated, but it's just interesting. A lot of big personalities in a house. Yes. Also, I think like following Spencer Pratt has been really interesting because they're like really sort of just like nomads right now they were able they were like part of the first evacuators but they were able to pack up a lot of stuff so they were just like took clothes and spencer was posting like i don't even know what i took like this stuff in his suitcase was like so dumb um but he also shared that he was one of the people who lost fire insurance a couple of months ago so um they're sort of like screwed oh my gosh i know and they're like obviously celebrities but like they're they're not like they have to work like right they work for a living just like sit back and get checks mailed to them yeah wow that's really scary that's a really bad place to be in i know he's been sharing all of it on tiktok and then they went back to the site of their former home and it was just like smithereens like it was ashes it was really crazy kelly teller also posted today like a picture of their house and what it looks like today and there's no house that is so sad and her caption like really made me like like want to cry and she's like I wish I grabbed my wedding dress like it was just some people were given like a little bit of time to evacuate and pack like now that because like the the I almost said FDNY like the fire department is like kind of staying on top of things there are certain areas that are giving like warnings to evacuate so you pack but you don't go anywhere but at the beginning like when Spencer and Heidi they were one of the first people whose house is I don't know where they live what area it is but probably the Palisades because that was like the first area that was really hit They were sort of given like no time.

25:30Yeah. I saw Paris Hilton posted her. I mean, seriously, like the number of celebrities. By the way, Paris Hilton found out from the news. Like they were just showing a house. Right. And she wrote like how this home, like how much it meant to her, how much it means to her family. And it's just like, it's really devastating. Of course, like there's regular people whose stories we don't know, but these are also people whose stories that we do know. So that's just, it just like, it's everyone. Leighton Meester and Adam Brody. Yes. I think I saw Eugene Levy as well. Mm-hmm. Anthony Hopkins. So crazy.

26:04This is like one of the craziest things in like modern history. Yeah. Because it's like there's nothing I can even compare it to. Like there have been other California wildfires obviously that have been like devastating. Like the, I feel like the most recent one was, but this is like unlike anything I've ever seen in my lifetime. Yeah. And I don't know if it's been contained at all yet. No. I was seeing even this morning, there are a lot of fires that are at 0 % containment still. And then, of course, there's the arson, which is now - Yes, they arrested someone. They arrested someone. I've seen a couple videos now of people starting little fires everywhere.

26:39I was watching the press conference last night of the fire chief and the mayors of these smaller counties. And the fire chief was like, I can't speak on fatalities. The police department has to because we haven't ruled out arson. and if these are fatalities caused by arson it's like literally murder yeah so it was really crazy yeah also then the looting i'm sure you've seen that yes dozens of people going into evacuated that's what i was saying about hurricane katrina stealing from home so now this is like this is crime theft it's like it is humanity at its worst at its absolute worst and i hope that they meet the justice that they so richly deserve and I hope the police are out in full force like and getting it done the animals like it's so sad there's so many different like levels to this devastation but like the I've seen like there's um a tiktok sound going around because this guy was like the animals in LA like don't know what to do they don't know where they are there was like this bunny like who looked lost and he was talking to the bunny he's like you're on pico Whatever.

27:45And so people are using that sound to just like show random animals in people's front yards. Like a wolf. Not a wolf. Like, you know. I don't know what the native California animals are. They have a lot of animals. A lot of wildlife. And a lot of forestation. So like there's a lot of animals that live there and they're all like coming down, fleeing. Coming out of the forest. Walking in the street. Yeah. It's so crazy. Yeah. So that's a bit of an update. Hopefully by Monday we'll have some better news. Yeah. Like we'll be at the end of it. yeah it will have been like a week yeah hopefully hopefully there's like an end in sight yeah our next story switching gears yeah zach bryan is clapping back at trolls in an explosive instagram rant after his split so he's been relatively quiet since everything has gone down i mean his name has been like absolutely ruined did you see he has a new girly rightfully so no i did not see that It's like real underground like TikTok like discovery.

28:43She's just like, it's crazy how these people like really follow a blueprint. They don't even like attempt to change up. It's like a really young girl who's a really big fan of his and yeah. Damn. I was actually thinking he probably does because he was cheating on her the whole time. Yep. There are plenty of girls that wouldn't care. Girls, especially if you're super young and just like naive and don't understand like the dynamics that you could fall into something like that. And then I'm sure he's also super charming. Like when he wants to be. It's easy to get swept away. He's a rock star. Right, right.

29:15So he posted on his Instagram and he's since gone private. Because I went to go look at it. I'm like, am I blocked? But no, he's private. He didn't. Zach Bryan didn't block me. Imagine Jackie gets blocked. I just want, well. Should we make that the title? Like I'm so sick of not being clickbaity. Jack's blocked by Zach Bryan, comma, story time. Well, also I was only on alert because yesterday someone sent me a post. Yes. And I clicked it and it said media not found. I was like, you know, they deleted. They deleted the photo. And they were like, no, you either have them blocked or they blocked you.

29:43I've never heard of this account in my whole life. So they had blocked me. They had blocked me as well. They had blocked the redheads. They had blocked the toast. They had blocked Claude with no job. The thing is, it's not a person. It's like an account. I can't even remember the name because I've never heard of them before. So it's not like tea that I'm not sharing. I genuinely don't know. But like, I don't know why this person even knows who I am. That they would block the redheads. Jackie, you're a star. The redheads are extremely threatening. They're extremely influential. Maybe we like did a nasty review of their book.

30:12No, they don't have a book. I don't even know who this person is. It's not a person. It's not a person. It's like an information account. Yeah, like boop-a-da-peepa. Yeah. You know, like. They like spread like actual. That's what you want to know. They spread like actual like lies. Lies, misinformation. Especially about like Israel. So I guess that's where we lost them. Yeah, but it's like crap that you care about. Yeah, yeah. Crap you should. Shit you should know. But it wasn't shit you should know. No. Is that an account? Oh, sorry. We're not talking about that account. No, we're not talking about that account.

30:44We don't even know what account we're talking about. Yeah, because we can't remember the name. Because we're blocked. Okay. Here's what Zach Bryan said. Oh, right. When he didn't block me. Said, also, all you fucking weird couch warriors attacking and belittling my friends on the internet because you're assuming I have a girlfriend are weird as hell and should be studied for science. So he doesn't have a girlfriend? Everyone wonders why I quit touring and don't want to be attached to music anymore. Meanwhile, you're calling my friends ugly and harassing them. well, maybe it's his friend girl. And then they had called her ugly.

31:12I don't know what people on the internet are doing. But she was cute. I didn't see people calling her ugly. I think they were like, oh no, girl, we feel bad for you. Like, let us save you, not get ugly. You know? He said, I'm not asking for sympathy, but going for my friends is so low and so messed up. Apparently, I've had four different girlfriends in like two weeks. Me, my wife, friends, and me are just laughing and hanging out like we always have. The thing is, this is really not the type of behavior somebody at his level of celebrity should be engaging with. like their rumors started about big celebrities all the time like this is a person who's playing arenas and stadiums like do you see like bruno mars commenting on what people say about him actually we've been begging him to comment on the allegations that he's 50 million dollars in debt and he finally did the other day did you see no uh he posted like something um i think he had a show in vegas or something he posted and the caption was like paying off my debt like finally it was like a confirmation that it's not true but that he knows that we've all been saying Right, but he literally just said it's true.

32:05No, like, I'm just saying. Jackie, and then like this emoji, you know? I'm just saying. Like, it could also just be true. Oh, can we talk about, ah, pita, pita, ah, pita. I fucking love that song. Fucking love that song. You know who loves that song? Kids. Yeah, it's giving, like, it's going to be the next happy Pharrell Williams. I just want to say, like, I or someone should start a playlist of, like, popular songs that kids also really like, so you can like listen to like real music with them. Got that sunshine in my pocket. Got that good song. That's one, even though that's from a kid's movie, but still.

32:38You know what else I found that they like? Dynamite by BTS. And that song fucking slaps. I actually think a lot of K-pop is like engineered to be like, not addictive, but kind of like Josie and the Pussycats, like young people friendly. No, it's like, it is engineered for people to like it. And so it gets into your brain. Yeah. Yeah. and I just love Bruno Mars I've actually recently started following him on social media I've always been like a fan of his music and I never followed him on Instagram the other day because Apatah is like taking over he like came across my feet I'm like you know what like fuck it I'm gonna follow Bruno Mars like I'm crazy but I'm free you know it's been such a joy and I find that he's like so top of mind for me now as like a celebrity and I really love him and I feel like we don't talk about him enough we don't talk about him enough we talk about him more than most people and I feel like people don't even realize I don't follow him, which is weird because I love him so much.

33:30And my beloved Bruno is literally named for Bruno Mars. People don't realize that. No, they don't. It's literally Zach and I's favorite artist together is Bruno Mars. But he's so famous. So I think I remember being like shocked at how many followers he has. Can you check? I believe he has like 50 million. He's really so global. 41 million. And the apatah is huge for him too because Rose is like a global artist as well. She is and she's from Blackpink. so it all comes full circle for me my faves and then he also just had a song with lady gaga another fave oh i love that song like those are my people like it didn't take off that song i know in the way that it should have given the fact that it was two like mega mega stars and neither one of them have released music in a while yeah i think it was just because it wasn't as like pussy poppin as people expected it was just like a nice beautiful song i want to be next to you that's why everybody hates us that's why everybody hates us that's why everybody hates us they like bad music and ugly things and positive well speaking of ugly let's go back to zach bryan so yeah he's just go like he has this instagram story with like a lot of text over it like it's kind of like a girly way to respond to something i just want to say not only like is it not like the behavior of like a man of his age but it's also not a behavior of like someone of his celebrity and stature it's giving like real housewife spiral and every time he has like social media drama with like the taylor swift tweet he always ends up like releasing statements and it's like you are so famous you are so wealthy like just do your music and like go live be happy get off the internet like it's losery like and i always find like if that were me and i had all this like real fame and money like you would not catch me getting involved in the sewer that is the internet anymore like i'm here because i have to this is my job but if it wasn't oh you wouldn't catch me here yeah i feel like for him the best thing that he can do especially in this moment when his personal his character is being called into question it's just like focus on the music people really do love his music his music's not being canceled just like it's kind of his saving grace like his talent is like the one thing we can't deny a musician like leave the instagram story like to brianna chicken fry live it to us we have got it covered yeah oh my god Ben rolls over in bed this morning and he had been like scrolling on his phone.

35:53He's like, are you seeing this Jersey Mike's trauma? Claudia, I literally was going to ask like, what's the beef with Jennifer Aiden and Jersey Mike's. I've seen it. So it's reached such a level that I went looking for the video. I'll tell you. So I was like, what Jersey Mike's. I thought they had like a Listeria outbreak or something. He was like this housewife. I'm like, Oh, Oh yeah, for sure. It actually is crazy how big it's gotten. Ben had never even heard of the name Jennifer Aiden and Ben knows Margaret. Like Ben's not unfamiliar with the housewives. it's gotten to such a level it was such a crazy fucking thing for her to post she was in the airport and went to jersey mike's and like had a negative experience with the customer service and it's my opinion that she was in the wrong like in the in the argument but even if she was even if this person was behind the the the sandwich counter being like a dick her reaction was so fucking crazy she starts screaming at other people in line filming the staff saying I'm a celebrity.

36:45Like, my husband's a medical doctor. Like, in like the nastiest tone that you could possibly, like, I'm a fucking celebrity. Who the fuck are you? Who the fuck are you? And then filming the poor girl just trying to make fucking sandwiches. Like, it was so disgusting. It was such a level, it really was such a bad look for housewives, a bad look for celebrities, a bad look for women. Like, it was just horrible. Then, Ben had seen it because she went on like a radio show or something and was talking about it, like giving her apology or whatever. She maintains that she was in the right. I think the issue was that they were going to make her get back online.

37:19It was a long line in the airport. They were going to make her get back online to order something else. But she was like, I haven't even paid yet. So it was just like an argument about the protocol for the line. And she maintains that she was in the right. She was like, I hadn't paid yet. I wanted another sandwich, yada, yada. And she, of course, respects people in service. This is what she actually said, right? She said, I grew up working in service. You know, my family are jewelers. That's not the same as working at Jersey Mike's. She said, I have so much respect for service. I grew up in the service industry.

37:47My husband works in the service industry. Your husband's a fucking plastic surgeon. Like, that's the service industry now? Hmm. No. It was so toned up. She is, I have, like, she is awful. Like, this is actually, you see someone's true character. Like, it was so upsetting. And Ben was like, it can't have been that bad. So I made him go on TikTok and search the video. He was floored. Like, it is one of the most shocking. shock i feel like videos like that go viral all the time not of celebrities but just like right i'm at her rental car and and whatever and it was one of the worst i'd seen honestly like celebrity or non-celebrity it was really just knowing who she is and like how she lives like it was so disgusting no and it's not dying down like every it's like jennifer aiden jersey mike's like because her apology was terrible like she keeps making it worse yeah no it's that's really bad you know i've actually speaking of the real houses in new jersey i've recently started like engaging in content with is Rachel Fuda.

38:43I liked her when she was on, but she's like a, you know, relatively new housewife, but she is pregnant. And so her content, her content is just sort of like down me. I think I'm like in her demographic and she's a cutie. I actually like her a lot. I hope they, I don't know what the plan is for Jersey. And I know people didn't like her because like she was on Margaret's side. And I think like the tree huggers were like team Teresa over Melissa. But I think Rachel Fuda was great. I actually really like her. And she has like a nice big house, which is really all I care about. Yeah, I like her too.

39:12I wonder what they're going to do there. I know, and it's been a long time, like a lot of silence. Yeah. Well, are you ready for our next story? Another end of an era. Yes, but really quickly, while we're just talking about Bravo, do you see also Karen Huger did not show up to the Potomac reunion? Well, that's our next story. It will be now. I don't know if it made the Fast Five fodder, so I just thought it should be mentioned. For Friday, yeah. Karen Huger checked into rehab after her DUI conviction and skip the Potomac season nine reunion taping. So Real Housewives of Potomac star, Karen Huger, has checked herself into rehab following her DUI conviction in December.

39:48Her rep revealed the news Thursday after Bravo released a seating chart for the highly anticipated season nine reunion. The graphic showed where each of the cast members were assigned to sit in relation to each other and the moderator, and she was noticeably missing. So her rep told The Daily Dish that Karen made the important decision to enter a private recovery program, so she was unable to attend the reunion taping today. He noted that his client was fully supported in this choice. he said we stand behind Karen as she embarks on this meaningful journey and are proud of her for taking such a significant step toward her forward in her personal growth now I might be biased because like I will seriously stand the grand dame till I die and generally like a housewife not showing up to a reunion it's such an unforgivable thing for me like I never was able to look at Adrian Maloof the same name never be able to look at Lisa Vanderpump the same even like two years ago when Sutton Strack had like a cough and left and went to the hospital like please you know i hate it i think it's so i think it's such weak behavior for the network to me it she's come back from it though it's like a a fireable yes it is it is kind of like but this i mean i didn't watch the season of potomac so i can't really say like where is she hiding from something no and i will make excuses for her me too forever um but i feel like especially with this being the reason for why she's gone not just she's like skipping out though she could be skipping out and using this as a reason um I feel like there's a way for her to still be on the show 1000 % to me this is not like sort of crossing that line in the sand that not showing up for the reunion generally does but also that rule has kind of shifted they've gotten a little relaxed because think about Mary Cosby like she was probably the person who had the most to answer for what was that like that second or third season of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and she did not show up and then she did not return like she was not asked back but she has since returned she is being lauded for her performance this season.

41:32I don't know if you've seen that she's been, she filmed this scene and then also has been keeping everybody abreast on her son, just sort of opening up to her, telling her that he's addicted to drugs. And she had literally no idea. It's like the most, I watched it, I was crying. It was real, she was so upset and she was trying to not react in a poor way. She just could not believe what she was hearing, talking about cocaine, all these drugs that he was doing. And he has since, and him coming to her was this moment of like kind of rock bottom, like wanting help. And they're, you know, actively working on it.

42:04She gave an update on Watch What Happens Live. But so she's having like this amazing season and she is someone who we forget didn't show up to a reunion, which in most cases would have been. Yeah, well then she wasn't on the next season. So yes, maybe you could, like I think Lisa Vanderpump could come back to Beverly Hills now and it has nothing to do with whether or not she went to the reunion. But like, I think it's typically like you will not be on the show any longer. Anything can change in the future though. Yeah. So with Karen Huger, I don't feel like this is bad faith. I think it's like a very reasonable excuse.
