Transcript of How Flaa Sees It: Wednesday, October 9th, 2024

Good morning, millennials.

Welcome back to The Toast, and happy Wednesday. It is Hump Day. We're getting over the Hump in the middle of the week. We're feeling good. We're feeling accomplished. We're rising and grinding. Hey, Jacks. How are you, Durn?

I'm Durn good. It is a Hump day. Alas, it is.

How are you doing?

Hunkering down. So right now is the calm before the storm. We actually woke up and the day was pretty pargy, but the storm, the hurricane is set to hit the West Coast of It's going to start around 1:00 AM this evening, so it's going to be a long night. I feel like tomorrow we'll know more about what will be. So yeah, just sitting tight, stocking up.

Hopefully, you just sleep through it.

Hopefully. But I don't know. I think it's worse to have it in the middle of the night because you can't sleep.

It's also dark. If you're actually in actual danger, the darkness just hurts your cause.

Yeah, but it will be hard to see. It's going to be so loud. But who could even sleep at a time like this?

You know, it's so interesting. This photo is going I don't know if you've seen it of the International Space Station. They took a picture of the actual hurricane. They're above it. At a glance. It's this huge... It looks like a cloud. You're telling me there's something they could do? They're up there, I don't know, take a vacuum and It looks like smoke. I don't know.

Well, there are a lot of theories that the weather can be changed.

Excuse me?

I think it's called cloud seeding.

I never heard of that. How did they change it?

I don't know. I've not really looked into it, but I've been seeing stuff like that it's possible to change the weather for better or for worse.

Blame it on the weatherman. That was such a good song.

They were so right for that, too. Not today. The weathermen are doing their jobs. But generally speaking on the day to day.

They can't be trusted. No, you literally can't predict the weather.

Stop trying.

I just thought that was so interesting. They saw it. It's like, you were afraid of this thing that's heading towards Earth. You see it, just grab it.

Yeah, it's a good theory.

Did anyone else have that thought?

No, I didn't. I thought it was really crazy that you could see it from space.

Yeah, and they're showing a lot of comparisons. Of course, in our lifetime, what is the greatest hurricane? It's Katrina. And this one looks on par, possibly bigger than Katrina, which is so scary.

Yeah. So I hope everyone is evacuating, praying for a miracle. Seriously. And we'll see. Just, yeah, really crazy. I've never been this anxious first week, but also, as they say, this is a once in a century weather event. So everyone's really on edge.

Now, shifting gears a little bit, I want to talk about something that I did last night.

Okay, that's what we're here to do.

I watched This is the boy I don't know what compelled me. It was just on. I was feeling cable because Ben and I were watching cable. We were watching the Mets game. The Mets won. Go Mets.

Meet the Mets. Did you meet the Mets?

I didn't. Not today. I have, but I didn't. Right. I know. They won, which is so It was fabulous. We were just on the YouTube TV app, and I don't know. I just didn't feel like changing it. So I said, What else?

Just cable. You don't have to explain your choices.

Yeah, it's just definitely weird of me because I'm so modern. I'm really cutting edge. They're like, What are you doing watching cable, girly? Well, I took a trip down memory lane, and I was just like, What else does cable have to offer? And the voice was on. Every time I watch the voice, which is not a lot, I always enjoy it, especially the blind auditions. I think once after that, the show loses its edge for me. The turning of the chairs is the best part. I had forgotten they really shook up the Reba, the judges. So right now, it's Reba returns, Gwen Stefani returns, and new judges, Snoop Dogg and Michael Bouble. Now, I didn't know what to expect. And lo and behold, I tuned in in the middle, and the first audition I see is this young, handsome guy who... Michael Bouble has to be his idol. He did Frank Sinatra. He had this really low, deep voice. He was incredible. And you know me, I'm such a harsh critic. I was seriously... I was making fun of everyone last night. Sorry, people were stinking it up. I have no notes. This guy was amazing, Jacky.

We're watching, and everyone turns around, and Michael Buble is the last one, and he doesn't turn around. Jealous.

Yes.

I say, Me and Ben are like, Wait, that's really weird. This guy was obviously put on the show for Michael Bluebley. They have people who are so obvious.

He would be dying to be Team Boob.

Then it got me thinking because that was the first thing I saw. Then I watched the rest of the episode with this critical eye of Michael Bouble, and I came to the conclusion- As if you were, you came in I'm so unbiased. Him not turning around for that guy was seriously disgraceful. And his reasoning was like, I want to have a lot of different artists in different lanes. I don't want to just do one lane. Of course, but you get a team of 20 people, so choose this guy. It was so obvious that this younger, honestly more talented guy, he was threatened. He was literally threatened. And then it really got me thinking about his place on the show because Michael Boubouble is really not famous enough to be in that chair. When you think about the people who... Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, I disagree with you because you're naming the biggest ones when you think about Niall Horen, Gwen Stefani, Michael Bouboubelle. They're both bigger than Michael Bouboubelle.

I don't think so. And Michael Bouboubelle is so talented. I know you can't listen to him anymore, and I'm not even a Bouboubelle fan, but I just have to take up- Of course, she's over here defending Michael Boobly. I have to take up the cause. What a joke you. He's not out of place there.

No, he's completely out of place. You can tell he feels so threatened, especially because, yeah, Gwen Stefani, but Riba and Snoop Dogg, they're the biggest stars in the world. He is so corny, Michael Boobly. Jackie, he's literally like, he does not stop trying to make jokes, and he does these awkward bits, and he's just trying so hard. Like, shut up. Oh, my God. He's bothering me so much. I admit, I am completely biased. I think there are two types of people in this world. People who see the truth about Michael Bouble and people who are still having the veil cover their eyes. He is so toxic. I just know it. The fact that he didn't turn around for that Frank Sinatra looking type of guy, like classic, classic stuff. He's just, oh, my God. He makes the show so unenjoyable. His little bits, like behind the scenes with the other judges, like stop.

They eat that stuff up.

No, because I eat that stuff up. I love that shit. No, you don't. Yes, I do. They get so many, especially with Reba and Snoop Dogg. I was living for it. Then it got me on a Snoop Dogg kick. I know everyone's obsessed with Snoop Dogg, but me and Ben were really surprised because I think if you're a real vocalist, you might not choose Snoop Dogg. He's really known for branding and obviously really He had good music making, but not vocals. I was like, Oh, no one's going to choose him. He was giving to the participants before they even chose. Such good advice. He was so sweet. He was wanting to meet people's families. He adds really good entertainment value to the show. He's fucking hysterical. Me and Ben were dying. But he's such a sweetie. He really was giving dad energy, and it made me really like him so much. Then I just went on a spiral because I'm like, Does Supedark have a girlfriend? I was just wondering about his personal life. Do you know what I discovered? I feel like this doesn't get talked about enough.

What? He's been married forever?

To his high school sweetheart.

Still married. Do they have kids? Yeah. How many?

Okay, I don't remember exactly that.

But that's beautiful.

No, I know. It was just like, why is Snoop Dogg not getting the P-jump treatment?

He's getting the P-jump treatment, but I just feel like we don't even have all the pertinent information. Four children. Four kids.

Cordell, Cori, Julian, and Cordy.

Cut names. What happened with Julian's name?

Yeah, I don't know. Maybe they got over the whole see.

Then they went back.

He's either the first or the fourth.

But you just read them. Were they not in birth?

No, I just went some random order from Google.

Oh, okay. Oh, Gemini. Gemini got you down. Gemini got you down.

Gemini got you down. It was an eye-opening experience for me. Obviously, Reba, we knew. And Gwen Stefani, even though I don't really fuck with her, she's a good coach. She's funny. She likes to play games with everyone. To a certain person, some people love her. They're her dream coach. It's really crazy.

It's It's so crazy.

It's a really good season without Michael Boubley. I am seriously on the warpath. I hate this man. This is an official Michael Boubley hate podcast.

It already was.

And by the way, Ever since 2020. Then in my DMs, people were like, Wait, why? I love Michael Buble. And I'm like, Oh, they obviously haven't seen the video.

And by the way, and that's why he's on the show. He has such a big- There was four people. No, but he has such a big audience, a core audience of women I think older women. And he hits that bucket. He just does.

So I was like, Oh, they obviously haven't seen the video of Michael Buble and his wife. And I went to go find it. Jackie, it has been scrubbed from the internet. I could not find it. I searched everywhere. If you can find that video.

I need to see it again because I feel like the power of it is waning for me.

No, no, no, it's not.

And I need to be re-upped.

The video, the only thing I could find- I need my booster. The only thing I could find was that they had made a response video. She was speaking in Spanish, being like, Thank you guys for looking for stuff like that. It's so important, but that's not what's going on here. And he's hovering in the back, seriously, pinching her. He's so crazy. If you don't know what I'm talking about, and there's no way you don't, because you can add it to my list of favorite stories. Anytime Michael Buble comes up, him and his wife, they have a lot of Instagram followers, and they do Instagram lives and shit.

Especially in 2020, that was the thing to do.

There was two instances because one I did find, but that's not the one. The one video was like, he doesn't know that they're live yet, and he literally physically grabs and shoves her. And it's like, Oh, excuse me. And he doesn't know they're live, and then they know it. Oh, hey, welcome. Serial killer vibes. And then there was another one where she goes to hang up the live, and he thinks that she's done, but she's not. And he's like, I'm going to kill you. Now, you can say that to your spouse, I'm going to kill you. When there already is evidence, I'm like, Yeah. No. He said it twice before she hung up the live.

Oh, my God. No.

This man is no bueno. I'm telling you, he has such an ick vibe once you see it. Because before I saw that video, I seriously wouldn't give two shits. I actually went to a Michael Mouble concert, okay? Who cares?

No. Mr. Christmas, the modern Frank Sinatra.

He's not. He's a hack. But once you see the truth- Have a nice voice, journey.

He has a nice voice. He has a nice voice.

He's a nice voice. He belongs on a cruise ship. Once you see the truth about Michael Buhble, you cannot unsee it. There are two people in this world, people who have seen it and people who just haven't yet.

Got yet, being not pretty important.

My favorite Michael Buhl fact that I seriously cannot talk about him without bringing up is Taylor Strecker's. Taylor Strecker's favorite story to tell is her first marriage, which obviously didn't work out. They should have known that something was wrong because their wedding song was Just Haven't Met You Yet, which is literally a song about not having met the right person.

That's funny. I like Home. That's a good song.

By the way, same. We need someone else to cover it.

It's like if Michael Boubley does get canceled, there are going to be a couple of songs. It's going to be hard to live without.

I just want to say, I am here for the cancelization of Michael Boubley. That is cancel culture I personally support. I'm ready for the world. How we just had this, we're looking at everything Blake Lively has ever done through new eyes. Let's do that with Michael Boubley, okay?

Well, now, the way I feel now, I'm clouded by the ditty stuff because I'm like, these are some of the worst things I've ever seen and heard. It's hard core. And we need to take out all that trash before we start analyzing people's old interviews for a smirk that was made.

A thousand %. I think when you look at the hate Blake Lively got, it's really insane compared to what bad people actually do. P. Diddy. Michael Bouble is not Blake Lively. He's not P. Diddy. He's somewhere in between.

Right. But I'm just saying the P. Diddy stuff is really taking up a lot of my time and energy and cancelizations. I feel that. I'm waiting for the names. I literally every day wake up looking for the names.

I'm making a list and I'm checking it twice to take Hollywood down.

Because that lawyer said we're getting the names.

They said we were getting the names with Epstein. I can't get excited until the actual list is in front of me.

Yeah. But then people make fake lists.

They do make fake lists.

They make fake lists.

Jimmy Campbell.

Chrissy Tegan, John Mudgeend.

Yeah, that's unfortunate. That's really not cool.

It is, yeah. I just haven't met you yet. I shall wait. Well, thank you for sharing your truth.

You're welcome. Honestly, tune in to this most recent The Voice. It's fabulous. It's a good family-friendly... And then they had a 13-year-old. Jackie, you seriously would have died for this kid. He's the youngest contest in this season. His parents were there like, No, he's an abnormal 13-year-old. All he wants to do is go to church and sing. He dresses like a mater D. He was wearing a blue velvet suit. The mom was like, We don't push this on him. All he wakes up, he says, He wakes me up. He's like, Mom, we got to go to church. He was so cute. You never heard a voice like this in your fucking life. He sounded like Aretha Franklin. It was insane.

Who But whose team is he on?

Oh, me and Ben were dying. No, everyone turned around for him, so we could have chosen anyone. We really thought he was going to choose Michael B. B. Because that was the vibe. He's talking to everyone. Everyone's giving him advice. While Riva's giving him advice, he's 13, and he goes, Riva, I just have to say, I'm a survivor. Oh, my God. We were cracking up. Then he chose. He goes, Who are you going to choose? Who are you going to choose? He goes, Riva. It was historical. Seriously.

I could see. I think Riva is exactly who he should have chosen as a young man in the industry. I think she'll be a- A protector. A stalwart shepherd.

Yeah. You have to think about who his parents probably told him to. You get caught up in a bad crowd. I feel like Michael Boubouboubouboub He is not of the caliber. He's so young and impressionable. Riva will be that maternal spirit for him.

You could get caught up in a bad crowd on the voice.

You really can. I'm telling you, Michael Bouboubou is threatened by... When you think about people who have come off the voice.

We've spoken about this before. His success, I think, was actually hampered by the voice. I think it's just something he pretends didn't happen.

Michael Bouvlet wouldn't have turned around for Morgan Wall, and that's for damn sure.

No. That would seriously- Which, Jackie- Which, George- Jackie, it would have been someone coming on the voice, I'm a guest, they sing Toast, and I didn't turn around. But the thing is, I could see that. I would have thought his reason for not turning around would have been different. I think the reason that he stayed in made him look like a big weenie. Because what he could have said, it's like when you're so close to something, it makes him the harshest critic of that genre. If that person came on and didn't sing Toast, but saying something else, you might be more inclined to turn around because you're not as close in it.

The way you will jump through hoops to defend toxic men like Liam Payne and Michael Bluebley.

Defend Liam Payne.

It's noted. How about that? I can't just come on here and speak my truth. You guys have no idea.

I was I'm FaceTime this morning with a friend. Oh, wow. She was friends. We were just talking about life, whatever. So many times, my brain just- Turned off. Crapped out. I was looking for a word that wasn't a difficult word. I still didn't find it. I was like, this doesn't bode well for the show today. Don't just sound my words.

Sometimes that happens, and you just need to... I'm glad you brought it up. If people were like, What was wrong with Jackie today? She explained it at the top of the show. It's so important to set the scene. That's why I always share when I have my period.

I thought maybe I hadn't finished my first coffee, now I'm on my second coffee. But also, I don't really have anything to say to the charges that you just levied at me. I don't have anything to say.

Oh, because you know I spoke nothing but truths.

No, because I'm not going to waste my time on this. I'm certainly not going to waste my time Liam Payne or Michael Bouvlet. I'll save my arguments for a better case.

I think that's fair.

Yeah, I think Michael Bouboublay should be canceled.

Agreen.

I think that he should be thrown to the wolves.

Lock him up and throw That's the way the key.

I think he should go to bed without supper.

Mm-hmm.

And that's that on the... And same for Liam Payne.

Agreed. So nice to finally have a co-host look I really see eye to eye with.

I'm going to give it a shot.

Just being an agreeable queen.

Just being agreeable. I think it's going to be so boring, but maybe I don't have the fight in me today. I'm doing Hurricane Prep.

It's so true. Could she be doing more?

There's just a lot going on, so I'm going to see where it takes me. Just being agreeable. Just be agreeing with you. Let's see how you guys like it.

Yeah. No, it may be boring for the listeners. For me, it's going to be a treat.

Well, I don't think our stories are that controversial.

Right. It's going to be easy for you today.

But we'll see. You never know.

We also have dear toasters, but we usually align on dear toasters.

We do. Because at the end of the day, our core tenants are simpatico.

Simpaticonis, yeah.

Simpatico core tenants. I feel like Michael Boubley would have a song called Sympatico.

I feel like Michael Boubley is mean to his wife. It's just a feeling.

Well, they're still together, right? That was four years ago.

You should call her up. Just so you know, it's not an indication that I'm wrong.

No, but it's like we won't get... We're not going to get more.

No, there's no tell-all book coming out. No.

But there should be. Then we burn them at the stake.

Exactly. That's what I've been saying. We have quite a lot to get into today.

Yeah. Now, without further, a do, do, do, do, about Michael Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo.

Wait, wait, wait. I had a dream last night that Today's episode was 38 minutes long.

A nightmare.

I've never taken anything for hair. I've always just been blessed, not to brag, with strong Long, delicious, shiny hair. In 2023, I experienced true hair shedding. Brushing my hair, taking in the shower, you never saw so much hair on the floor in your life. In my vacuum, I was just freaking out. It never happened to me before. Turns I thought that it was from a change in diet when I lost a lot of weight, and that's what Nutrafall does. They target the root cause. You could be shedding your hair because of stress.

Thank you. Promo code the turt, the bears.

I don't know what commercial that was that really had such a profound impact on me, where they were like, The bears. What commercial is that?

The Tert.

It's obviously a commercial for somebody's sports. I feel like a cable package or whatever.

I don't think it was a commercial.

No, it was.

By the way, I just saw a video of Michael Buble gate, and I've had my boost. You did? How did you find it? I had my yearly booster.

Text it to me. I need a booster.

Okay. It's really bad.

It's worse than I remember? No, probably not worse than you remember. I spent 25 minutes looking for it last night.

It's on Facebook.

I did YouTube and TikTok.

Youtube and TikTok. Why not Google? What about your best friend Gemini? Why didn't call your best friend Gemini? Okay, wait. She could help you. Okay, hold on. Maybe she could help you.

I need to watch it, you guys. A little bit.. Oh, it's worse than I remember. That's actually not funny.

No, it's not funny. Just you're...

Okay, so now you're not even just being agreeable. You actually I agree.

I agree. Michael Buble is not what he seems.

Michael Buble is overparty.

To what degree? To what degree? I couldn't say, but he's not what he seems. He's not what it seems.

There's dark energy in that home.

Which is a great segue into our first story.

What is our first story? Oh, The Housemade?

It is about a home with dark energy because the book The Housemade by Freda McFadden, which is a fantastic thriller that you'll read in less than 24 hours, and you should read it.

I literally read it in 2 hours.

Literally. Because it's being turned into a movie, yay, and casting news has come out, and director news, and it's fire. It's fire.

It probably was the most read Thriller last year, probably.

Well, one, I think most Freedom McFadden books are free on Kindle Unlimited, so that does good for her. But also it's just the easiest read.

And if you ever looked into Freedom McFadden in her career, it's so impressive. She's not a writer by trade. Because she writes about deeply disturbed people. She is a psychiatrist, and she writes these little short stories for fun. Also, I think part of her patients healing journey is to read these books. She publishes them, and she has become huge. I wonder if she's still a practicing psychiatrist.

She's one of the biggest thriller authors. They're not short stories. They're full novels, but they're such quick reads that it feels like short stories. No.

She has never once failed. I've never guessed the plot twist. She always comes out of left field, and it's not unbelievable. I hate when people do a plot to us in a book or a movie that makes no fucking sense. No, hers, they were in front of me the entire time, and I've never guessed it.

Yeah. So The Housemate is going to be turned into a movie, and it will be starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Saferead. Now, if you I've read the book, this casting is so perfect because the younger actress does resemble the older one a lot. They're very similar, and I never thought Sydney Saferead looked alike, but they're twins. This They're both such good actresses. It's going to be quality. The director is Paul Fyg, who did Bridesmaids and A Simple Favor. So this is going to be... I think this is going to be one of the few projects where the movie is just as good as the book.

I have a lot of high hopes as well. I do want to say one thing, not to be negative, because I just discovered, like most people, Cindy Sweeney in euphoria. I actually remember coming on the show and recapping because in the second season, it was really a lot about her. She was so fantastic. Really, some of the best acting I've seen. I thought she totally should have won the Emmy for that throw-up scene in the hot tub. I thought it was cool that she really was so talented. In addition, I think she gets a lot of attention because she's really beautiful, but she does have the acting chops to match. Then I saw Anyone But You. I wanted to take back every positive thing I'd ever said about her acting skills. It was actually comically bad, her acting. Now I feel so torn. I can't tell if Cydie Sweeties, an amazing actress, or a bad one. I need to see the house made, and then I'll make my final decree.

Yeah, that wasn't an initial thought when I was actually thinking about this, but I pushed it down.

It was or wasn't?

It was. Are you just being agreeable? I didn't mention it because I was being agreeable and just being excited about the news. Yeah, and I am excited. I could see her ruining this movie. It's a possibility.

Thank you for saying that.

I'm not saying she's going to, and I pray that she won't, but that's possible.

Because Sydney Sweeni is the biggest star in Hollywood, and she's done a couple of movies since Euphoria. I think the only one that people really saw was Anyone But You.

She's also in that White Lotus.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But she didn't have a huge role. She's She was just being a bitch on the beach. That's easy.

That's the thing. She was very similar in euphoria. She was that bitchy high school popular cheerleader. I think she's really good at that. Maybe she's really mean in real life. I think that anything out of that- I don't know how well she's going to play Meek Little Housemaid. Yeah. Anyone but you, she was supposed to pay this down on her luck, millennial. It was not good. It was really bad.

That's a possibility. A concern. A concern. However, I'm going to override it.

No, and Amanda Seafree does have experience in these spooky types of movies. She made this one really weird movie called Chloe with Julianne Moore. Seriously, don't watch it. It was so weird, but it was very spooky, and she crushed it. She's a chameleon. She could be Karen for Mean Girls, and then she could be Elizabeth Holmes. She really is a chameleon. I have no concerns about her. You don't? No. Do you?

I have less.

Less?

Less concerns about her. I guess I haven't watched so much of her stuff.

I also didn't know that they were making this into a movie, and that's just like, that was part of the news for me, too, and that's exciting.

I think this has the potential to be the next Gone Girl. The story itself. Oh, wow, that's a great call. The way that this story happens, I think it could be just as big, and they're giving it everything they've got. So I think they couldn't have chosen a better movie. However, we said all of these things about the perfect couple on Netflix. It's Netflix, it's Nicole Kidman, it's Leo Shriver.

Wait, is this in theaters? Is this on a streamer? Because Netflix does have a way of ruining books.

Oh, interesting.

I think they did not do a good job with Luckily As A Girl Alive.

Lion's Gate. So I guess they'll make the movie. Oh, it's in theaters? Yeah, perhaps.

That's promising. Who do you think is going to be the husband?

I mean, it's irrelevant who the husband is.

No, actually, the husband plays a really important role because you need to... I don't want to spoil anything.

Don't spoil anything.

You need to Just have a lot of faces.

Yeah, I think- Be the sweet husband.

You need a really talented actor for the husband, for real.

Okay. Anyways, I think this is all very exciting news.

It is. I think that we often hear They're like, Blank book is getting picked up. Option for a movie, TV show. But to actually have casting news knowing that the ball is getting rolling. Every book I ever liked is technically somebody bought the rights to and they never get made. This is actually like people are... It's probably in production. The script is being written. That's very exciting. I'm happy for Frida.

It is very exciting. I'm also happy for Frida. I'm so glad.

I do hope, and I think when I was recapping It Ends With Us, I think really the success in that movie was they did not change huge things. Yeah. And Frida is such a master of plot and plot twists that if they try to put their Hollywood spin on it, I've never once been surprised by a Hollywood movie. They don't know how to do it.

Except Shutter Island.

True. But Quintin Tarantino is not doing this film, even though he should.

Martin Scorsese.

Correct.

I really hope they don't- I really hope they don't- This should be Scorsese. Step aside, Fige. Leave it to Scorsese.

I really hope they don't mess with the bones and the structure because it is perfect.

Yeah. I'm sure they'll add a lot. They'll probably add characters like a friend.

A coogie neighbor.

But this is good. Let's take the win, and we'll see you when it's out. Plus, there's a house made, too. So if this is a bonanza, There's pretend for a sequel.

And the house made, too, was good. We knew the formula at this point, so it wasn't amazing, but it was a good read.

I'm trying to remember. Oh, yeah, they were in that apartment.

She lives in the city, yeah.

Yeah, she's in the city, and she's working for a woman in her apartment.

On the upper side in the Dakota where John Lennon lived.

Yeah, in a Pargy apartment.

Pargy.

I'm not going to say anything more because that could spoil something. Except it's worth knowing that Sydney Sweeney is the housemate. So if there's Housemade Two, Sydney Sweeney, Sweeney, would be in house made, too.

There's a good, actually, really disturbing part of that book, the end. We'll discuss offline. Yeah.

Wouldn't want to spoil something that's coming out in six years. Do you know what I'm Did you read that scene?

No. Teeth?

No, we'll discuss offline.

Okay, so you obviously weren't impacted because if I said teeth, then you knew what I was talking. You obviously weren't impacted by that scene like I was.

No, I was reading them very quickly.

Yeah. That was a good time in my life discovering Frida.

Yeah. Bad Teacher. I've read all of them. You read The Teacher by Frida? That's her most recent.

No, because the last Frida I read, I frided a little too close to the sun.

But I think you could be ready for some more Frida.

I think I could, actually. But sometimes they're Frida books. What's the one about that abandoned house? That couple goes to see a house because they think they want to buy it and they get snowed in for the weekend.

The thing about Frida Books is you're not going to remember the titles, really. However- Yeah, they're so arbitrary. It's called like... House on the Hill. No, no. Or like, I could live here.

Never lie. Yes. Thank you.

Never lie.

To me, that's Frida's best book. And deadass, do not read that book alone at night. It takes a lot for me to be afraid rate of a book shaking.

For me, that was one of the few four-star Frida reads.

What? But that twist was so good. It was so good. Oh, my God.

I think I had had too much Frida. I've read in total, though, four Frida books.

I've read way more.

She has so many.

She's a queen. How much money you think she has? Like a lot, right?

I don't know. She gives her books away for free on Kindle Unlimited.

I think she has a deal with Amazon because I think a lot of people get Kindle Unlimited because of all the free to books. She's a huge pull for them. I think Amazon pays her handsomely. I don't think she's doing charity work.

No, not charity, but she's not making every book sale.

I think she's very taken care of. She also sells physical copies.

I think she's very taken care of because she set the volume. Anyways, are you ready for our next story? Someone who we actually haven't discussed in this episode yet, but all the other people we've been talking about feel like her, so it feels like we've already spoken about her.

Who?

Anne Hathaway.

Oh, I'm obsessed with this. Let's go.

Anne Hathaway is apologizing for a cringe interview with the same reporter who almost quit over her nightmare, Blake Lively interview. So, yeah, we talked about the Blake Lively interviews, and actually, there is some more to this lady's story because the reporter named Flaw, or Kirsty Flaw- Yeah, she's Dutch. Yeah, she shared a clip of an interview from 2012 with Anne Hathaway when she was promoting Les Mis.

This is the woman who, if you guys remember, that really started the Blake Lively cancelation. That video resurface, and it resurface because Flo- Flaw. Flaw released it. I think she was hoping to get the same attention with this, and she actually is. This made a lot of waves. It came up on my TikTok, and I think it's worse than Blake Lively. This was probably Anne Hathaway. It was like, Dark as time. This is when everyone disliked her. She took herself so seriously. When she won the Oscar, she said she will use it as a weapon against self-doubt. She was insufferable. This was the worst time to be Anne Hathaway, in my opinion.

Two roads diverge, to be agreeable.

No, tell me your truth.

I saw the clip that she spliced together. It was three different moments from the interview. How long was the interview that you found three moments where your questions didn't go the way that you wanted? The first thing that she said, she joked that she was going to sing the first question and that Anne would sing the answer back. No.

Okay, so that's a reference in Les Mis because they talk sing. She also did it to Hugh Jackman, and he loved it.

He was like, Yes, thank you so much. Of course. But that's It's Hugh Jackman. But anyway, so she said, I was going to sing the question so you could sing back the answer. Anne Hathaway was like, Well, I won't be doing that, but you're more than welcome to sing.

And it's important to know the tone in which she said. She said, Well, I won't be doing that, but you're more than welcome to sing. It was Kurt.

It was Kirt. And then she, later in the interview, asked, Do you remember your first crush? And she answered, No. And then she also asked, Do you believe that love was more passionate during the time that the film took place? And she said, No. But then it's so funny because it's like, So this is a bad look for Anne Hathaway. Yet at the same time, women are also being encouraged, No is a full sentence.

Okay, so no is a full sentence, but not in this scenario. I actually think the first question I'm with Anne on.

Please leave me alone. Do you remember your first crush?

No. Can I sing with you? I agree, Anne. No. The other two, when someone's interviewing you and you give them nothing, that is actually so rude. Anne Hathaway was, obviously, A, in a mood, or B, this is who she was at that time. I don't believe that she's like that now. But why are you sitting down for an interview if you have nothing to say? It just makes the person's job difficult. And interviewing celebrity is difficult enough. But at the same time- But at I can't make that call because I've not seen the rest of the interview.

How did it go? Anne Hathaway is actually a very verbose person. What were the other questions? Did she answer them at length? Were these the three curt moments that you found? Yeah, that's fair.

Well, the journalist then shared that Anne Hathaway's publicist emailed her, and it was a note that Anne wrote to the publicist and asked to forward to the journalist, just basically explaining... She apologized first.

So this is what Flaw said. I have to say, I was pretty In fact, I had not expected her to reach out to me at all. I thought she was never going to even see that video, but she did, and she did something pretty amazing. She revealed that Anne sent her a long email explaining what she was going through at the time and apologizing for giving Flaw an awful interview. Then Fla also said that it was a very personal note, and we decided that I wouldn't share exactly what was in that email, but I just wanted to share with you guys what she did because I thought that was just so amazing.

Now, the thing is, maybe I could, if this video organically went viral, like Flaw didn't release it herself. Maybe I would have something different to say, but to make your bones off of... Because nobody had heard of this woman as a journalist prior to this. Now they know her as the woman who got you people. And to me, that's so bad faith that even though... I do think Anne Hathaway was being a bitch and a half. I don't care.

Yeah, that's how I'm feeling, too. And when you do see that Anne Hathaway clip, you always have to give someone the benefit of the doubt. You I don't know what they're going through. Everyone has hard...

Bad moments.

Hard days, bad moments. And so then Anne wrote this email telling her that she was going through something, and it was clearly something big enough that Flaw is not going to share. Great. You got her.

Making a career off of being the counselor, that's what started the whole Blake Lively thing. I don't know. To me, that's not a way I would ever want to become famous, but maybe that's just me. I would love to see... I'm sure there are plenty of men who have been really rude to this woman. I don't know her obsession with putting successful women on blast. I don't know. It feels like such bad intentions that even though at the core of it, you watch that interview and Anne's in the wrong, it's hard to root for this woman.

I agree, even though really the three instances that she's showing, it's so easy to jump to be like, That's mean. But I don't know. We need more context. All she said was no. She wasn't like, That's a dumb question.

Do you remember your crush crush is stupid?

Yeah. It's actually a bad question. She didn't say no. Why would you ask that? She just said no. No.

The other question about being, Do you think people sacrificed more...

Love was more passionate in that time? No?

It's just a stupid question. Who fucking cares?

Right. I do feel like we have the same conclusion, which is that Flaw, I don't think she has the greatest of intentions.

No, I'm in agreement. I think she really likes a lot of the attention she received for that Blake interview, and she's just trying to muster up more of that.

It's going maybe back to her old interviews and finding moments that, out of context, do make a person look bad. It's like, one, context is key, and two, you don't know what a person is going through on the day of that interview. Just like Flaw said on her own interview with Blake Live, she was dealing with a lot at that time.

Flaw also said that Anne has asked her to interview her for her upcoming movie. There'll be a moment where Anne is probably just so chatty and positive with Flaw.

Then she'll get criticized for being weird and chatty and too much personality and What's wrong? There's no winning.

No, this sucks for Anne Hathaway because I feel like she's made a lot of progress, and she's done a lot of work on herself to become... People love her now. She's a fashion queen. Her most recent works have been really critically acclaimed. But there was a time where Anne Hathaway could not get arrested. Nobody could say one positive thing about her. Everyone found her annoying and whatever. I think she's made a lot of progress in really getting back in the good graces of public opinion. I think this probably rattled her.

I just want to say for me, it doesn't change any-Me neither.how I feel about Anne. Plus the fact that it's from that time that she's already moved on from. And clearly who she is today isn't who she was then.

I have made peace with everything Anne Hathaway did while she had a Pixie Cut.

And at the end of the day, her crime here was that she said no twice and didn't want to sing in an interview, which I couldn't relate to that.

Yeah. And if you are going through something personally and you're on a press junket all day long, by the time this person rolls in, you're just like, No, I'm not going to sing.

No, I don't remember my first crush.

I mean, I do. Obviously, Maverick and I are different.

So I asked the wrong girl.

Yeah. Jackie, do Do you believe love was more passionate back then? Sorry. Jackie, do you believe love was more passionate back then?

No. I think that's such a big question. That's not It can't be answered in one sentence. You could write a book on that.

In true press junkets, when you're a movie star and you do a press junket, they book a huge hotel room. They black it out. You sit there all day, and 45 reporters come in, and they each get seven minutes. It's, seriously, probably one of the worst experiences. I could never. You answer the same questions about the same thing for days and days and days. When this woman came in with her singing questions, no.

Okay, so that's the latest. That's how Flaw sees it.

That literally is how Flaw sees it.

Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Which is how Donna, Kelsey, sees it. So Donna is doing her least favorite thing, and that is answering questions about Travis and Taylor Swift. Because the Glamor Women of the Year Awards were in New York City last night.

Donna was on the cover.

Donna was there.

We didn't even talk about that, the Glamor did the moms on the cover. They had Beyoncé's mom, Phineas, and Willy's mom, Travis's mom, and who was the fourth? Beyoncé. Did I say Beyoncé?

You said Beyoncé.

Yeah. Beyoncé, Travis, Binnieus, and Willy, and...

Do you want me to pull it up? Selena. Selena. Anyway, so Donna was there at the awards.

Oh, wait, sorry. Which I just want to say I loved. We never get a chance to recap it because it was Roshashana, but I thought that was so different. Agreed. And love the mom's getting the moment.

The support for mothers.

I actually thought that was brilliant. More of that. And they chose something. We're always saying people do lists, and They never choose. They chose mothers. I love that.

Yeah. And they chose four really strong candidates from different buckets. And so the fact that there was four didn't bother me because they were all doing something different.

Where was Andrea Swift? Continue.

Donna was on the red carpet, and she was asked- Her least favorite place. She was asked, no offense, a really inappropriate question. Let me hear. Will Travis propose to Taylor? Oh, my God.

People are actually not okay.

Yeah. She said, Nobody knows that. We will see what happens. You never know. I think it was page 6 that asked the question.

Classic.

She also said that her kids- Why did they even ask that?

As if she be like, Yeah, he's actually planning to do it a month from now with a ring that looks like this.

No, absurd. You know how she crumbles when asked about Taylor because she wants to be coy and respectful, and then she comes off aloof and rude.

She is so afraid of saying the wrong thing that she would rather come off as nasty, which she often does. She's not a mean person. No. It's how she comes off because she is so afraid. It's better than saying the wrong thing.

Yeah. She said, Nobody knows that. We'll see what happens. You never know, which is a perfect answer to a bad question.

Agreed. Honestly, I feel like Donna Kelsey's at a point in her career where she can go on the carpet. When you do it on carpet, there's two parts of it. All the photographers, you stand there and take pictures, and then the second half is page six, TV, E-E news. That's cameras, and that's what Kelti does. You get interviewed by someone, and it is recorded, whether it's audio or video. Most mega celebrities do the photos and then skip that second part. I think Donna Kelti is at a point in her life, and also for her mental health, where she needs to skip the second part of the carpet.

Yeah.

Because she does interviews, like glamor. She sat down for an interview. They would never ask her that. Controlled interviews, she should do. Like red carpet mania, she's not built for.

No. And yeah, just being in Taylor's world, you can't just put yourself in a position where people can just have access to ask you anything.

Yeah, she surpassed it.

Yeah, but I think she was having fun. It was her big night.

Donna's Night Out. And by the way, Beyoncé showed up to the event. Let's go, Dianna, let's go. I love that. And yeah, Beyoncé was there. I think people were quaking. They didn't think she was going to show up. But it was for her mom. Beyoncé, she's a star, and she's too good for Glamor Woman of the Year, but not in support of her mom.

Totally. Then did you see Taylor and Travis are headed to the East Coast for his bye week? No, but- Then she got on the plane at 6:00, and he got on the plane at 7:00.

She was like- She waited an hour?

Yeah.

But I'm sure- Maybe she had a call or something.

I'm sure he was getting the shit.

It takes- Yeah. Oh, by the way, I got to get trust in Taylor because yesterday, as I was leaving the studio, I got a text message from Zero Bond. They're like, Hey, we'll be closed today. Like, last minute. Starting at 3:00, I'm like, Oh.

Oh, you think? Oh, they're coming. For me, I'm like, Oh, Hurricane Milton.

Classic. No, but it was yesterday, and Taylor wasn't there. But I thought for sure, I'm like, Maybe if I stand outside. I can't do that.

No, you can. But maybe if you stand outside and wear a kilt, she'll notice you.

Perhaps.

That'll be some exciting content. You think they're headed to the city? I think they should go to a holiday house. It's so much better.

Oh, are they not confirmed? I thought you said they weren't coming to the city.

East Coast is That's what I saw. I feel like they always go to the city. I guess someone could track the jet, but they could have seen where they landed, but I didn't take it that far.

Is there anything big going on in the city? Last time, they flew right to the city because they had a wedding, and then the US Open. Is there anything fabulous going on? When it's a big week, they're always here. Fashion Week stuff, but there's nothing going on this week, I feel like.

I think it's a holiday house week.

If I owned a holiday house, every buy week would be a holiday house- I would never leave. Type of week. I would never leave. Broke bitches should never laugh.

Then, yeah, that's the tailored update for the day.

Oh, I'm so excited for them. Do you think she was so mad on the plane waiting for an hour?

I think that's what the the article tried to make it seem like. But no, he has to pack. Maybe he had a team meeting, and she would rather wait on her plane and have dinner than go to a restaurant in KC. Right.

Her plane is actually so secure. There's not many places she could just post up.

Yeah, I think it's totally fine to post up on the jet.

On the plane, yeah.

I don't think it was like she was waiting for him. She was waiting for him, but maybe he had a team meeting. It's all I'm saying. Maybe, yeah. Or a call with seven lawyers.

That's the thing. If you have calls and you're like, I'll just take it on the plane while I wait for Travis, it's not a big deal.

Or maybe he was picking up the engagement ring from a local jeweler.

That's a better... Yeah, that's definitely it.

Are you ready for our next story?

Yeah. What number?

Number 4.

Yeah.

The office star, Jenna Fisher, reveals her breast cancer diagnosis. So this was really big news yesterday because Jenna Fisher revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. She announced the news via Instagram on Tuesday in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and she shared that back in October 2023, she posted a photo of herself on Instagram preparing for her routine mammogram with a joking reminder to take care of your ticking time bags, a la Michael Scott. After inconclusive results on that mammogram due to dense breast tissue, my doctor ordered a breast ultrasound. They found something in my left breast. A biopsy was ordered. Then on December first, 2023, I learned I had stage 1 triple-positive breast cancer. She shared that she underwent treatment and is cancer-free now. So, of course, encouraging women to get checked, but I think nobody knew that she had been dealing with this for a year.

No, and she shared Not that this is the most important thing, but the photo she had shared, she wrote in her caption, thanks to Angela Kinsey's husband, who took this photo of me, who's Angela from The Office.

Right. And they do their podcast together, right?

Yeah. And her husband... I mean, Angela's husband, I guess, is a photographer. And they had this really cute photo taken of her to show off her new because she had lost her hair. So it was just a cute office reference.

Yeah, but also knowing they do their podcast, Office Ladies.

Yeah, it's really popular.

One of the bigger podcasting female duos, not to- One of. Not to pit female podcasting duos against one another, and that they've been doing that in this entire year while she's been going through this.

Yeah, that's really crazy. Yeah. She's a queen, and I feel people really love her. If you're an Office fan, she's Who's your favorite.

Pam and Jim? Yeah, Pam and Jim.

Pam and Jim.

Yeah.

The people from The Office all did such different things.

Yeah, while also not having to do anything.

So random. But you know Dwight Schrute, what's his name? Rain Wilson in real life. He has a podcast. And he had actually found himself this week in a little bit of hot water from his podcast because he had Trisha Paytis on. And Trisha, for those who don't know, you remember the frenemy's time Trisha was doing this podcast? I guess that was a time she really, really does not like to talk about, more so because I think she was experiencing a psychotic break, and it was all filmed. And even though people love the show and whatever, she looks back on that as one of the worst times. And she was explaining she doesn't talk about it because she literally can't. And he was just not having it and kept forcing her to answer these questions about that particular time. Now, granted, I don't think he knew any of this, but do research on your guests, and he's getting actually some heat for it because she was so uncomfortable, and he was acting inappropriate.

That's weird. Why does he even- Care? Yes. Also, I feel like every movie I watch, he is low-key in it. He was just in Lessons in Chemistry. Oh, yeah. He's literally in every movie. Why are you also podcasting?

I feel like him and Jim Gaffigan have to hate each other because I feel like they go out for all the same roles. Do you know what I mean? Yeah.

I don't necessarily need the two of them.

Because honestly, if you were to ask me who was the boss of the TV station in Lessons in Chemical, I would have said Jim Gaffigan. I feel like they're literally twins.

I didn't even realize that it was Dwight Schrute until the credits say Rainhills. I'm like, Oh, yeah. I don't know. He's just a very successful working actor. I just don't feel like we also need to podcast.

And interview Trisha Paytis. It's okay to have Elaine sometimes.

What's up?

Our final story, Mazel Tov to Vanessa Lechet, Because Love is Blind Season 1 couple, Amber and Barnet are expecting their first baby.

Yeah, this is huge for annoying bitches like Vanessa Lechet.

Amber and Barnett, who met and tied the knot in Season 1 announced they were expecting their first baby on Tuesday's episode of The Love Seat podcast, hosted by Lawrence Beat Hamilton and Cameron Hamilton. Of course. So Amber shared the news saying, Over the summer, he just went and knocked me up. And they talk about how they're so excited to meet the little one. And this is just major news. I mean, as Amber and Barnet stands, major news. First Love is Blind Baby. Very exciting.

Amber and Barnet were making a lot of waves on that show, too, because I guess this is the first time they're being really honest about their experience and more so the edit that they got. And it was interesting to watch, but it was also really interesting to watch everyone, like Lauren and Cameron, not really disagree with her because she was basically saying she was not open to being taken advantage of. And she was just standing up for herself a lot in the process. And she thinks that really put a target on her back because remember, they had a whole conversation about her finances and her being in debt. And she went to college and the army paid for it, but then she She stopped out, so she stuck with the bill. They really made her seem like a low life with no money and no financial responsibility. There's a whole part of that conversation. Barnet was also in $40,000 of debt at the time, and they completely left that out, just really positioning it as like, Barnet, look, he owns a home, and he has his life together, and here When it comes this low life looking for his money.

She was finally speaking her truth. I thought that was really shocking.

Yeah. Then what, Lauren and Cameron?

They just were smiling, being like... Because she was explaining the dynamic with the producers, and she was calling people out by name. The dynamic just very much being like, if you don't go along with it, you're really putting a target on your back. It felt very personal.

Yeah.

Everyone just sat and giggled because she, I guess, was speaking the truth.

Damn. Well, I was always rooting for I know.

You were able to see past the edit.

I was able to see past, and I'm so happy for them. I'm always happy when I go to their profiles and see that they're still together. Every day that I wake up and it's not a story that they've broken up is a good day. Now that They're having a baby. I'm just really excited for them. It's definitely good timing to reaffirm my affection for the show because of what's going on this season.

Agreed. I do think it's so crazy that this is our first baby. I didn't know who I thought it was going to be, but I don't know if I thought it was going to be Amber and Barnet.

Or just based on how long everyone's been together, a season one couple were born and Cameron.

I don't know. I feel like I would have thought it was Tiffany and Brett.

Yeah, or then it could just be another couple that's just ready to rock, like Kwame and Chelsea.

Oh, Kwame and Chelsea, or Johnny and Vanessa. Johnny?

No. Heaven's for this.

Yeah, he can't have a baby a minute too soon. I'm happy for them. That's really nice. They're a nice couple.

Yeah, they are.

We are going to head into Dear Toaster, our weekly advice segment. Every Wednesday, Jackie and I will take three submissions. You can email us, deartoosters@gmail. Com, or head over to our website, thetoasterpodcast. Com. There's a submission box there. We're going to keep your shit anonymous. Don't worry. It's just a way for us to get back to the community. Really help the girlies because they're in desperate need of our attention.

Yeah, to practice. Are you ready? For you to practice what we preach. Exactly.

Okay. Hey, Jackson Turdy, I need your help. I was casually hooking up. This one's more of an unburden than a deer toast. I don't know how we can help.

I mean, that's why unburden went the way of the win because they are very similar. So it happens.

I need your help. I was Casually hooking up with this guy for a few months. A situationship, if you will, I'm Gen Z. And the guy's mom died last week. This weekend, while drunk, I sent him a text that said, and I quote, Sorry your mom died, king. Salute emoji. I know I'm going straight to hell. He never acknowledged the text, and the next morning snapchatted like nothing happened. Do I apologize, never see this man again, act like nothing happened? Help.

Next morning snapchatted like nothing happened. I need- I guess that's what the kids do.

You snap a picture of your coffee and you send it to your peeps.

Back and forth. And he still sent to her. So he's not done with her?

No. But how can she look this man in the eye knowing what she said?

I think that she can. I think it's better than not acknowledging his mother's passing at all.

I I actually think it would have been better to not acknowledge it than to send this text.

No. To not acknowledge? Why not acknowledge? That's someone that you're intimate with. Why wouldn't you?

Yeah, of course. But this is borderline disrespectful. Not even borderline. Sorry, your mom died, King.

Did she spell out sorry, or was it an S-R-Y?

According to her email, S-O-R-R.

Why? That's something. It's not rip.

Yeah, I'm surprised she didn't say #rip at the end.

I'm shocked she didn't text him rip.

Now, the thing is, if he Snapchatted you back, he's obviously not deeply offended, and maybe you two can move on from this. But I do, not to make matters worse, I do want you to look inward and why drunk you thought this was an acceptable text. Someone losing their mother is The worst thing that can happen to a person.

Why wouldn't you text him sober when you heard the news? Just something meaningful. That way drunk you did. I don't understand.

I don't understand either.

I mean, you could follow up and be like... I I don't really know what to say. I sent that text the other night because I wanted to reach out. But in thinking more about it, I just want to let you know I'm really here for you, and I'm sorry for what you must be going through. Just acknowledge it and follow up with a little heft.

Yeah. I don't think if this works out or if it doesn't work out, I don't know if you'll ever regret being there for someone, even if you never see this person again. I don't think you'll ever regret offering a shoulder to cry onto somebody going through this. Even if he doesn't take you up on it, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. You'll never regret trying to do It's the right thing.

Yeah, just try and add more to the text with a little redo on the situation.

Yeah, I like that. Yeah. This is a lesson to be learned. When you hear somebody is experiencing grief, text them immediately, sober.

Yeah, especially if drunk you, seems to do stuff like this.

I can tell you, you really never know the impact a text is going to have on someone. I wrote this in my book, actually, so randomly. You remember the most random things of people who said nice things to you? I literally remember when Daddy died, the most random girl from my grade wrote me the nicest text. I could read it to you now, I never forgot it. That's so nice. Or when our dog, Walker, wrote me the sweetest text about Theo. When people go out of their way to say something kind, I'm telling you, it leaves an impact. Yeah.

Best it leaves an impact at worse, it was a nice moment, and then they move on. There's nothing worse than that that could happen.

Yeah, agreed. All right, next up. Hi, guys. I'm actually dead right now, writing to you. A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I went to stay with his parents at their reach While we were down there, I painted a sign for their front yard. The week after, his mom asked me for my address to send me something in the mail. I'm thinking it's a card, a thank you note for painting the sign, right? Wrong. It was one of my thongs I had accidentally left down there. It was in an envelope with a piece of paper with a smiley face on it. I'm actually mortified. We've only been dating for eight months, so it's not like I'm comfortable enough with his parents to joke about it. Thankfully, I did laundry while we were down there, so I'm 95% positive that they were clean. I am so embarrassed though, but I don't know how to move forward next time I see them. Thank God they were clean. She probably found it in the laundry machine. You probably left it. It was stuck to the top of the What's wrong with her? I know.

That happens all the time. Petty, throw them away or leave them in the drawer if you expect that she's coming back. I'm still stuck on the beginning. What does that mean you painted a sign?

It's a beach house. It's like the Smiths. She probably made something cute.

I don't think that's weird. I'm not understanding.

Well, I think maybe that was an innocuous thing that happened that weekend, but she thought that's what the letter was going to be about because it was this nice thing. Maybe this girl's an amazing painter. They would have paid someone a couple of hundred dollars, and he or she is doing it from scratch.

So cute.

No, I agree. This is 100% on the mom. An actual normal person would never want to go out of their way to embarrass their son's girlfriend. You would obviously throw it away or clean them, fold them. She's a woman. It's not discussing. Putting it in the drawer of the bedroom that they sleep in so that the next time, look, she has a pair of undies.

To go out of her way to mail them like she's a child.

Yeah, she's a child. And by the way, she was trying to embarrass you. This is a BFA moment. Bad faith actor.

Actress.

Yeah.

I would ignore it. And don't feel bad for one second. And with the smiling face. Thongs get trapped in the dryer all the time. They're like a thong trap.

Yeah, especially those hanky pankies. They're so static-y. They stick right to the top of the dryer.

They were totally clean. You did nothing wrong. She's just being one of those Who's textbook, cliché, wench, wenchy mother-in-law's.

Agreed. You did nothing wrong. Definitely ignore. This is bitchy behavior. And she did it to get a reaction out of you. Do not give that to her.

Don't text her. Oh, my God. I'm so sorry. I didn't know it.

I'm so embarrassed. Yeah, I'm dicking down your son, and you're not.

No, sorry, I washed my undies.

Yeah, at least you're a nice girl who wears underwear.

I'm sorry. She... Don't be embarrassed. Don't be embarrassed. You did nothing wrong.

Hey, swirleys. This one I think you'll be able to help with. I'm five months pregnant with my first child, and I've been staying in my in-law's cabin. I have some quirky pregnancy cravings, but I literally can't eat anything without my father-in-law making a comment about it. These comments range from simply yucking my yums to more offensive statements like, You're making that baby really strong by eating all that food, or, You look so big, or, Wow, are you sure you're not having twins with eating that much? My husband has said something to him because he had picked up on the bad vibes, but it hasn't helped at all. He has almost started doubling down on the comments, and every time I go to eat, I'm waiting for the comment. Am I being dramatic, overly sensitive?

That's so fucking weird.

Do I say something to him, but I honestly don't know if I can confront him without bursting into tears. Any help? Appreciate it. Now, I have to say, I chose this one because I have the perfect response for you. There is a scene and a line from Sex in the City that you literally need to just copy because Miranda just had a baby, and they're in Atlantic City, and this guy, this prick, is like, Move out of the way, fat ass. Carrie's like, Excuse me, she just had a baby. What's your excuse? Twins? So you need to throw it in his face. Oh, wow, you're eating a lot. You're having twins? Yeah, what's your excuse? Triplets?

Yeah.

And who cares if he's not even fat? Fuck you. Seriously, this man is so toxic.

We need to fire in all cylinders. Give it back to Also have your husband say something to him. Stay away from him. This is so messed up. Who says something like that to a pregnant woman, let alone multiple times, let alone the girl who's giving you a grandchild? Fuck off.

No, I completely agree. It's time we go into the kitchen gunslazing. You need to enter the kitchen now every time on the defense and with a couple of good lines up your sleeve.

A couple of good zingers.

Yeah, unacceptable. And do not suck it up. You can't let people think that they can get away with being animals.

Sometimes when someone He makes an offensive comment, you ruminate on it and you're like, Fuck, I wish I said this. The good news is, he's going to keep saying it and giving you opportunities. You can keep on strategizing what you want to say back to him.

That's one zinger that I have for you. Please sound off in the comments, you guys. Give us good... Not so long that she can't memorize it. Quick zingers.

Yeah.

Just trying to keep up with you.

Right. Biggie. Trying to find what I can after you tore through the kitchen. Right.

That's a good one. Unacceptable. You have to come up with some things to say.

Why do we have to stay in the cabin? Just... Yeah.

Maybe it's really nice. But no niceness is worth this.

Yeah.

It's just not. So thank you to all the girlies who wrote in. We hope we were helpful, and make sure to write us again, deertoasters@gmail. Com. Update us on what happened. That's our show.

Tiz.

Tiz. I would say you were definitely agreeable, and I actually really enjoyed it.

I would say, other than one or two times, I didn't have to go out of my way to be agreeable. So I don't feel like this was a practical application of policy. And maybe another time, I will try this again.

I'm done. You just let me know.

I think we just, genuinely, on a genuine level, agreed today.

Agreed. You're right. The stories were not polarizing at all.

As I said.

Sending so much love to our Tampa Swirlies. If you haven't evacuated, get the fuck out and just hunker down everyone. It's going to be a while, 24 hours.

It's going to be a long night. Sending love to the West Coast Florida Swirlies.
