Transcript of It's A ______! : Friday, December 13th, 2024

Good morning, millennials. Welcome back to the Toast, and

Sound like Santa.

Happy Friday. If there ever was a Friday.

If there ever was a Friday that felt like a Friday, it is this Friday because this is our last regular episode of the toast. There will be toast on Patreon, so next week go to patreon.com/atoast. However, like, this is our last regular workday of the year for us For us. Scott and I, and it's very, very exciting.

It is, and we are coming from a place of privilege, making our own schedules. Most people's last day of work is, like, next Friday. No. Not us. We so celebrate this time of year.

Celebrate. But, also, it's very exciting because there's so much to discuss today. Like, I don't know if the cards can handle this, but I'm gonna be

an extremely

hour episode.

This is gonna be extremely long episode.

Let's go through everything that needs discussing.

Okay. First of all, like, most important thing of the day, my gender reveal. 100%. And it's not just like, oh, it's a blank. And I'll tell you guys.

What went down last night on social media needs to be discussed. Like, it was the craziest time of my life. Okay?

Okay. I can't wait to hear about it. 2, I

actually have a list. I need to talk about Shannon Ford, and then I heard you also need to talk about Shannon Ford.

I do need to talk about Shannon Ford.

But don't infringe on my Shannon Ford moment because mine's, like, actually huge. Okay?

Okay. I think mine's big too, but okay.

3, my husband did the craziest thing. He did the craziest thing, and

I'm gonna tell you about it. Okay?

Okay. And then the 4th thing that I did was watch Yellowstone. Now I'm not gonna give a proper recap, but I do need to talk about a couple of things. Nothing happened. Like, seriously, I couldn't even recap it if I wanted to.

Okay. And then the 5th thing that will likely happen are the stories, and for a Friday, they are popping off my friends.

Yeah. Popping off my friends.

And then the 6th thing is my southern charm recap because I watched an episode of southern charm last night. I watched Craig on watch what happens live, and then I listened to Madison LeCroy on skinny confidential podcast this morning because I'm obsessed with southern charm. Like, there's an I might need to go to BravoCon and go to a southern charm panel. There's never been a bigger fan.

You should put it out there. You should host a southern charm panel 1 year. I did it 1 year. You should do it. I should host a southern charm panel.

No 1 else has

seen every single episode except for the back half of last season. But what was so nice is that Michael and Lauren weirdly also are obsessed with southern charm. Like Love that. They're talking about they miss Thomas. Like, they're talking about the funniest things from the history of the show.

So I have my center turn recap. It's also, like, tied in Spritz was prevalent on the show last night. Like, real ones could see it in the background of 2 scenes, Craig's opening scene and then the scene that he filmed with Austin in the hot tub. And fun fact that I learned after the fact was that our husbands were with them that day.

Yes. The

reason why there was all that spritz and fresh fruit in the background is because they were doing the photoshoot at Craig's house.

So was Ben not in it? Because I know he got mic'd up. He was, like, really excited.

Our husbands were not in the show

Yeah.

At all, but just knowing that a few hours prior and, like, they were at the house when Austin did come over. Mhmm. So knowing that they were there for that, like, just made me feel cool, but, also, I actually don't wanna be involved in the show. Like, this is art for me.

Like, I don't wanna be in it. The 7th thing

And the good news is

is that I'm not in it. Actually, I don't agree. Like, it's really hard to not make everything about yourself when literally everything's about us, Jackie.

It's insane. No. There's boxes in the background, like, with our name on it.

Yeah. The 7th thing we have to do is our final Queenie and Weenie of the week. Right.

Our final. It's just

it's actually overwhelming how much we have to do.

I have a question for you. Unless you feel, like, really attached to your Queenie and Weenie this week, would you wanna make it Queenie and Weenie of the year?

So I was actually thinking of suggesting that to you last night. Actually, I woke up from 3:45 to 5:45 AM, and I thought of everything under the sun. And 1 of them was, like, maybe tomorrow's Queenie and Weenie should be more of an annual. It's so hard to and it's, actually, like, I think calling someone a weenie of the year, like, it it's the antithesis of weenie of the week. It's a 7 day title.

You can come back from it, but you were the weenie of a whole year.

I feel like someone could be a weenie of the year like like p. Diddy.

Okay. But then that also is the antithesis of weenie of the week because it's not like, the weenie of the week is Jay z. Jay z? But the title isn't criminal of the week. Like, it's actually supposed to be fun and lighthearted.

Okay. Do I hear you?

Maybe we do both. Like, let's see where the cards are. Let's see where the episode is. Let's see if we feel inspired. Because I know my queenie of the year.

Like, that it came through loud and clear.

I know my queenie of the year as well. I was gonna say the queenie that I chose is actually that could be the year.

Okay. Let's save it for that.

Okay. Okay. So let's talk about what went down on social media last night. Jackie, a couple of days ago, was I don't know. Was it on the podcast?

Yes. I was speaking for the people.

She was berating me endlessly about doing my gender reveal. I had planned to do it in January because, you know, like, you only get pregnant for the first time once, and I'm just, like, trying to milk it. And Jackie was like, listen. At a certain point, like, the public stops caring. And that's really all I needed to hear.

That's, like, my worst fear. People stop caring about me and what's going on in my life. So I very quickly got that vlog together. I had had all the footage, and I just, like, had been sitting on it. I wasn't sure when I was going to release it.

But with the holidays coming up and we were just now this week spending so much time scheduling the Patreon content for next week, then I was like, you know what? I have a slate for it, and it has to be today.

Yeah. Because we also wanna not drop it next week because we wanna talk about it on this show.

Yes. And for those who saw the Patreon and know the gender, thank you for being Patreon members. And for those who don't, like, I will share it any minute now. But I But we're here to crack it out a little bit more. Of course.

Of course. Of course. But there were so many things that went down. So I okay. I'll say it first.

Ready? Just because I don't wanna mess up any pronouns. I am having I'm having a I'm having this is the last thing I have to, like, pinch everyone. You know? Like

I'm having a there'll be more things, like like, the name that you know? Knock wood. Like, so it's not the last.

I'm having a girl. Psych. I'm having a boy. Or is it a boy or a girl? No.

I'm kidding. It's a boy.

It's a boy, period. Period.

Period. Period. Actually, no period. It's a boy.

Period for this 1. Right.

Yes. And I had been vlogging, like, the whole experience, like, the gender reveal that we did. And if you watch the video, like, you know it's seriously the most fucked up backwards gender reveal. Like, we actually didn't reveal the gender at in a a little sort of way. Point.

Like, we just kinda had to guess. It went down, like, a little chaotically, but in the most To be fair, like,

if you and Ben just, like, sat in front of a cake and, like, looked at the interior and it was, like, so clearly red or pink or blue, like, that's so not you and Ben.

Who are we, Molly Mae? Like, please. It had to be special and only pee this way. It had to be bad. You know?

It had to be comedic.

Now I don't think this is a particularly competitive category, but everybody's saying it's the funniest gender reveal I've ever seen. But gender reveals aren't supposed to be funny.

People aren't going for funny. Well So that's just you and dad. Aren't me. And then you guys, like, furiously biting into cake pops thinking there was, like, more clues is my favorite part. But then also at the end when you tell Margo, and you did what you just said right now, and Margo's like and then you tell her and then you tell her boy, and she's like, yay.

We're all boys, and you're like, it's a girl.

She's like seriously the most fucking annoying bitch on

the planet. I don't know

why people listen to this podcast. I know.

That was seriously the I I felt bad for Marsha.

I

did too, and she was so excited too. She was, like, dying to know, and I, like, wouldn't tell her. Now oh my god. Vlog, everyone's lauding it as the most, like, amazing piece of artwork since Oppenheimer. Like, they're obsessed.

And, you know, it didn't occur to me. Some I think you were, like, by the way, maybe block the word boy in your comments so that people just don't, like, automatically spoil it without going to the Patreon. For Patreon members and for non patreon members, I was always gonna share. I'm not gonna keep it secret for 9 months. Like, it's also Like, even people who are Patreon members, like, if they

just see the word boy in the comments, then when they're watching your video, like, all the suspense is gone. Like, you want it to be

it's it's

Oppenheimer, like you said. Like, you want it to be suspenseful. And if you know the whole time, like, we're all trying to find out together. Yeah. And so It's a major spoiler alert.

I remember, like, having seen other people's gender reveals, like, with, like, big female communities as, like, their followers, and nobody spoiled it in the comments. It's like a shit thing to do. I I thought there was, like, an unwritten rule amongst human beings, like, that we didn't do that. So somebody was, like, blocked the word boy. I'm, like, that's so crazy.

No. Within 2 seconds, I'm out here on TikTok blocking the word boy, boy with 2 y's, boy with 3 y's, and the blue heart emoji. Just because I didn't want it to be automatically spoiled. And then it got nefarious, because people, like, who were obsessed with spoiling it, like, I did not get off my phone. I would love to check my screen time at, like, 5:30 last night for 3 hours.

I was deleting and blocking. First of all, there's some some people were just, like, oh my god. It's a boy. I'm so happy for you. You can get blocked.

Like, I love you, but I'm deleting your comment, but I love you. Some people were responding to every single comment. It's a boy. It's a boy. Don't watch it.

Don't watch it. Like, trying to to hurt me. Right. Blocked.

Take away from your cinematic achievement. Yeah.

And just take away from the hype. Like, okay. I'm not forcing people to go to Patreon. I'm gonna share the gender literally tomorrow, but, like, can we just have fun for 5 fucking minutes? Oh, okay.

So then they they got around my, my hidden words. And because I'm on TikTok and Instagram, I'm blocking different emojis. Then they go male, M. A. L.

A. You fucking bitches. I'm so onto you. Blocked. Blocked the word mail.

Blocked the word mail. And then I could see people trying to use the word mail in, like, the blocked comments. I'm like, oh, you're a nefarious troll. It was the most productive. I must have blocked a 1,000 people last night, and they need to be blocked.

I know a 1000 people.

Haters. 1,000 disgusting woman haters. Oh, I love that. So I blocked mail. I'm strolling, you know, and things are getting quiet.

Every time I block a new big word, it gets quiet until they all collectively come up with another 1. It's whack a mole. Male, m a I l. Easy. Blocked.

Again, the blueberry emoji. Now I should've blocked that 1 first given the the theme of the gender reveal. Blocked. I was just blocking people, bopping people, places, and things on so many platforms. I never had so much fun in my whole fucking life.

Like, I appreciate and Okay. So, I appreciate, like, people, like, literally being obsessed with me. Like, this was my dream. Then I actually got a lot of shit. I don't know if you know this.

Wow. Baby's not even born yet, and you're monetizing your gender over here. Like, a lot of, like, you know, woman hating, businesswoman hating. And, at first, I was like, should I feel embarrassed by this? Like, am I, like, exploiting my kid?

Because we're always talking about, like, family channels and shit like that. Yeah. And I'm, like, no. Like, would you yell at a woman going to work to provide for her child? Like, that's literally what I'm doing.

Like, monetizing your baby, Shindra Real could never be me. Providing for my family could never be you. Yeah. Like, I don't I'm so, like and and it's not like I'm gatekeeping it until the due date. Like, it's literally out there.

It's a boy. Like, I just wanted us all to have fun last night. Like, people were so and and then also people who are being like, people are supposed to pay for this. So are you a celebrity? Like, literally, I do so many blocked words I have.

I'm so famous. Like, everybody's fucking obsessed with me. Like, oh my Jackie.

Like, every personal announcement in our life, like, has always been on the Patreon. The Patreon's our personal channel. So

for if you, like, did the gender

reveal not on Patreon just because you're not monetizing the gender, like, it's actually the antithesis of of

what you do. Yeah. And, honestly, with so many people hating on me last night, it further proves the point and the need for Patreon because Patreon is really a safe space. Like, it's our true fans and listeners. We have so many haters.

Like, literally, my joy is the worst thing to ever happen to them. So, that must be so sad because I'm so joyous all the fucking time. But, like, it really proved the need for this safe community of people. So, I don't give a fuck. I wish somebody could've and I was home alone.

And I was, like, literally I had our social media manager on it and my semi comments that need to be deleted. Like, I was seriously being, like, 1 of those kids in, like, a kids spy movie where I'm in the back of a van. You're in. Like, that was literally like, yeah. You're out.

Jackie, I was being so fucking crazy. It was top 5 the most fun I've ever had in my life.

Wow. I'm so glad that you had that. I'm so glad that also the the productivity of getting rid of those people on your reaches.

Because I felt so good.

Here to have fun. I don't know when it was when I realized it's like, I don't have to tolerate people that don't like me on my Instagram. This is my fucking Instagram. This is not a democracy. This is my Instagram.

Dictatorship, bitch.

And, like, I can do when people are, like, they're deleting comments, which, by the way, I don't even I get accused of that all the time, and I don't even do it. But, like, we get

accused of deleting comments when we literally have never until last night. Wait.

Or, like, on our YouTube, we get accused of deleting comments. Like, I'm not even logged into like, when I look at YouTube comments, I'm logged into my personal account. So, like, I couldn't delete the ones I don't like if I wanted to. And it would take me so much admin. I'd have to ask you for the password.

You have to send me the code that you need.

And Jackie recently changed all of our passwords. Like, so it's Fort Knox. I don't know the password.

And then we have, like, 2 factor authentication, whose phone or email does it go to. Listen. Just say, I'm not deleting comments.

And, like, just call me fat. Like, it is what it is.

Is that but, like, if I were to, yeah,

I did that. Yeah. There's no shame in the game. No. I love it.

There's so much power in it. Were you silent or silenced? Silenced. Yeah. So

I'm so glad you had fun last night. I got to watch your vlog. I hadn't seen the whole thing. I obviously, like, know my part. Claudia also recorded, like, sharing with us.

You had sent me when you and Ben saw Mhmm. Like, those sisters' reactions and the sisters' reactions. So I didn't get to see, like, the lead up and, like, all the fun stuff that happened, and it was really fun to watch as your sister. And and I feel like we haven't even discussed, like, what it means that you're having a boy.

Okay. And I talk about this on the Patreon blog where I announce my pregnancy, but also the gender reveal, like, my journey with gender. Because when I got found out I was pregnant, and even before I got pregnant, like, I always wanted a boy first. It was just a preference of mine. Like, I I don't feel like I have to explain.

It's just preference. Right?

Everyone has, like, their preferences at the outset.

And then when I actually got pregnant, I felt like I couldn't say that, obviously, out loud, but I still did. But Ben was, like, Ben didn't like what I would say any sort of preference. He felt like it was, like, a Kanai nahara. Like, stop the

I agree

with him too. But, like, the heart wants what like, preferences are preferences. I can't choose my own preferences. If I could, like, I would choose either. And it was very clear from, like, day 1 that everybody thought, like, I was having a girl.

Like, it was just it was kind of not even a question. Yeah. And I was trying not to be insulted by that because, obviously, like, you lose your beauty and so, like, it's everybody calling me ugly, but whatever. And when it came time to find out the gender, the weeks leading up, like, I really tried to prepare myself for it being a girl. And, like, and I really meant when I said that, like, going to Eris Tor was, like, enormously helpful.

And a couple of things, like, made me realize because I was thinking about, like, how close we all are with our mom. And, like, you can't be, like, a 30 year old man so close with your mom. It's, like, get a job.

Because then and the wife's riding into Dear Toasters.

Yeah. No. And it's just, like, it's not congress with with what should be done. You know? And so, like, I have to think of myself in this situation.

Like, if my son grows up and gets married, I'll never see him again. If my daughter grows up and gets married, I'm still the center of her universe.

Yeah. And when she has a baby, like, being the grandma on the mom's side Huge. It's you're much more involved because it's the mother's journey.

Mhmm.

It's just very different. So, yeah, there's so much merit in in the in the girl mom. Yeah.

Yeah. And then, of course, being able to use the word daughters. Like, that was like, for me, I was like, you know what? Actually, I want a girl. And then doctor Fox, the results are in.

And I was so happy. Like, sorry. I was. And I really I do think I would have been happy regardless because if you watch the vlog, I actually thought it was a girl first. My first sort of gut when I see the visual of the cake, I'm like, it was a girl.

And I I got to experience what I would have felt for 1 moment, and I was like, oh, cool. Like, it was all good.

Yeah. There's so much to get. You just have to know what it is, and then, like, you go down that path, and there's so much to get excited about on each path.

Yeah. It's just, like, hard when you and you shouldn't do this, but it's so hard not to to, like, you just, like, envision, like, different things. You know? Yeah. Like, a bris.

Yeah. A bris is fun.

Oh my god. And Except also, like,

having to get snatched 7 days after you give birth.

Actually, I wouldn't say a bris is fun.

Yeah. Perhaps no. But it's nice that everybody, like, gets like, there's an event.

Yeah. Of course. But, like, I think modern Jewish women, like, we hate it. Yeah. No.

It's hard on the mother.

Very. Maybe maybe not. Maybe that's an not a con, but

But you did, like, 2 very private brises. Yeah.

My second 1 was kinda busting. Wouldn't you say? Okay.

There was, like, 20 people there.

I know. But, like, my first 1 was just immediate family. I didn't even invite my best best friends in this world, like, date. Yeah. But, also, I just, like, I didn't yeah.

I guess, I could you could say it was COVID, but, like, I just felt like I just want it super small. Like, even Dina wasn't there.

Yeah.

And then my second 1, like, I had my my Swirlies there. My Swirlies were there.

Yeah. Most of the businesses I go to are, like, a fucking free for all, like, 600 people, and that's totally what Ben wants. So, like, just prepare yourself.

Okay.

Like, I'm just not in the mood to argue. So, yeah, like, it's all out, and I actually cannot believe I did not spoil pronoun or anything on the podcast. Like, that was my that's also another reason why I couldn't wait till January. It was just a matter of time.

Yeah. I agree. Good guys. Oh, the good guys.

You know Ben would, like, accidentally say it and not even hear it so it wouldn't get cut.

You're having a good guy.

Hopefully not. No kidding. Yeah. I'm having a good guy. I'm having his baby.

And I went for a big doctor's appointment yesterday, which, like, again, I hadn't been to the doctor in a couple weeks. So I'm like, will they, won't they? It's so, like How's doctor Fox? Fab. Just absolutely fab.

Only spoke to him briefly because the scan was done by a tech. And I wanna talk to the techs of America. My tech was actually amazing. Like, I feel like in some appointments, like, they dig that thing in your belly so hard. She was so soft.

Like, and you have to have a full bladder. So when they're digging so hard, it's like, could you chill the fuck out? She was so she had such a great touch. She was very quiet. Now I'm not sure what the what they teach you in in school, like, bedside manner wise, because if there is something wrong, like, you don't wanna alert.

That's the doctor's job to, like, give the information. So I was, like, asking like, she was so quiet, and she was also busy doing a lot. So I didn't wanna bother her, but I'm like,

what do you see?

How are we looking?

And it was a long scan. It's, like, it was, like, 40 minutes. So I'm, like, what do you see? What do you see? What do you know?

What's going on? And she was, like, just taking pictures. Like, she was not giving me an inch as to whether, like, it was devastating news or overwhelmingly positive. Then she gives all the imaging and all the reports to doctor Fox, and we go into doctor Fox's office, and he said it's all good. Like, we didn't even go over results.

He was like, it's good. But, of course, we had to spend a good 15 minutes rewrapping Ben's finger.

I saw.

Which brings me to the story I wanted to tell about the craziest thing my husband did.

So what did you wanna say

to the text of America? 0, 0, 0, thank you. I forgot. Tell us.

I know, but it's, like, not their job. Okay. But I do do reveal too much. What if it's good? And then what if they think that it's good, and then the doctor sees something else?

If they're telling you that it's wrong, you're sitting there for 40 minutes.

I mean, that was like we were saying yesterday about my tech who was crying. Yeah. Jackie had a tech who was, like, doing the scan, and not only did she say stuff, she was crying.

She started crying because before she did that scan, I think it might have been the same scan that you just had. She measured my cervix. She went in, and she saw it was really short. And she told me I had a short cervix, but I

didn't know what that meant. Right. And she was

like, the doctor will explain to you. And then we had the 40 minute scan, and as she's doing all these images and stuff, she is crying.

Seriously? She should be in jail for real. It's the craziest thing. To be clear, that was not doctor Fox's tech.

No. No. No. No. No.

Was a blurb. And, like yeah. Now in hindsight, I know why she was crying and because it was a sad situation. Mhmm. But we need a little bit of professionalism.

I also took a look at my cervix yesterday because of your cursed 1 that potentially could be, you know, hereditary.

Even though I don't think it is. 3 centimeters, looking good. We love to hear it.

We love to hear it. So to the techs of America, I say, let us in.

You know? Do less do less and do more.

Or, like, seriously, they should be in a different room. Like, I wish she was behind a curtain or something. Do you know what I mean? Like, I was right next to her hand. It's, like, on a wizard.

We were doing transvaginal, like, and and she won't even look at me.

Do you know what I mean? Yeah. You have to learn to not read them whatsoever because you're, like, eating yourself.

I know that, but Ben was making you crazy. Okay. And Ben, like, did something. Like, he he was trying to, like, lighten up. This is not the crazy thing that he did.

It just started to make you know what? Actually, I'm not gonna say it in the run.

Okay. But what's the crazy thing he did?

So he got his finger rebandaged by doctor Fox. Doctor Fox took a look at it. He wasn't worried, but he said pick up, like, an biotic ointment on your way home from doing, like, a bacitracin or something. So I guess Ben, you know, ordered on Go Puff his antibiotic appointment. Appointment?

Ointment. We're going to bed last night, and he was rewrapping his bandage, and he gets back in bed. And, like, by the way, did you get that antibiotic appointment? Why do I keep saying that? Antibiotic appointment that, doctor Fox told you again?

He's like, yeah. I got Neosporin in preparation h. I was like, what was that second 1? He was like, Preparation h, have you heard of it? I was like, yeah.

Have you? He's like, no. I just searched, like, antibiotic ointments and that's what came up. It says it's an antibiotic ointment. And it's like, and you don't know what it's for.

He was like, no. I have no idea. I'm like, how do you move through this planet, like, not knowing stuff like that? Like, everybody know. I've never had a hemorrhoid, and I know what it is.

There are commercials for like, everybody knows what Preparation h

is.

H is for hemorrhoid. H is for hemorrhoid. That's good enough for me.

I could not believe this grown ass man was walking around, like, not knowing that Preparation h was like a tushy cream. Thankfully, he had went for the Neosporin, so he hadn't put it on the the cut yet, but it's, like, in my house. Like Well, you know what? It's a

good thing to have as a pregnant lady. You never know when those hemorrhoids are gonna hit. It's just a good thing to have in the house.

So true. But, like, can you believe? Like, how do you not know that?

I get I don't know. I feel like of all the crazy things that he might not know Remember what you said? What my husband didn't know the other day. I'm not even repeating it.

Yeah. Yeah.

That's crazier.

Mhmm.

Mhmm.

So take solace.

Now I think to number 3, my Shannon Ford news. Why don't you share yours first?

I feel like I'm talking about it. No. Just that I have been consulting with Shannon all day yesterday and the day before because she has embarked on her sourdough journey. And yesterday, like, we were sending videos, voice notes, and I was also making a loaf yesterday, so we were I was just, like, showing her what it should look like. And all else to say, she sent me a video this morning.

She has risen, and Shannon had made a beautiful pargy pargy loaf.

That's kinda big on her first try.

Yeah. No. I know. I'm so like, she crushed it. I'm very excited for her.

Well, she's kind of crushing all facets of life because in addition to being a sourdough queen, she's also a toaster. She listens to the show, I think, like, every day. And without even, like, asking or telling me, she was listening to the Mark Schoenewater Holocaust Education Foundation board meeting extravaganza episode of 2 days ago. And Shannon has pledged $10,000 to the donation matching. So we're doing a fundraiser at the end of this month.

The toast has pledged 10,000 and now Shannon has pledged. So once we raise $20,000 from the community it will be matched by us and Shannon's 20 k and we will be have raised hopefully $40,000. And Shannon didn't even tell me. She's just, like, literally was writing a check. She did not ask to be praised, but, like, she I was seriously floored.

I couldn't believe it. Like, she's not Jewish. I know she, like, totally understands the struggle and she, like, respects

She's such an ally. Like, we don't deserve Shannon. It's so amazing. I think I think some form of holocaust education in her childhood really impacted her.

I I think so too.

It's and I think she's actually like, it's so full circle that person. That now that that she's donating to Mark Schonewater because whatever education she had, like, seriously impacted her, and I just I need to kiss that person on the mouth. But, also, it just makes the work that this Mark Schonewater Foundation does even more important because, like, other people should have that education. 1000%. I was so touched.

I was I was speechless. You know me. I always have something to say. I didn't even know what to say. So generous.

That's my queen right there.

A queen. They don't make them face. Shannon Ford. They don't. They don't.

Trust your faves. Like, that's And the fact that she

didn't tell you. Yeah. And that's, like, also what they say is, like, the the highest form of charity is, like, you know, doing it anonymously. So, like, our 5 grand that we pledged, like, for such pieces obnoxious. For such pieces.

But but if we didn't do that, then maybe we wouldn't inspire others, so it was inspirational. You know? Yeah. It was

very motivational to others.

Anyway, she's just such a queen.

She's such a queen, and she deserves all the praise, and that's not why she did it. But we like, everybody needs to know, like, that's that's who you're following. Like, that's a queen right there.

Yeah. Yeah. And you should know when you're the people that you're following are, like, wonderful.

Our kings and queens, our royals. Yeah. Now the next thing I wanted to talk about was Yellowstone. Should I save it for your sun and charm recap?

Yeah. I think so. Because I think we could get into the stories because I think there's a lot of stories that people are tuning in today for. So

Oh, really? Like, seriously? Besides my gender reveal, what's going on in the world? James Kennedy. Oh, yeah.

Okay. Anybody else when that, like, screenshot went around? I thought he died.

Claudia? Claudia?

Did you also? Yes. I don't know if it was, like, the picture TMZ used. It was giving in memoriam.

No. The fact that whenever someone sends me a screenshot from TMZ like that and no 1 ever does Dead. There's a death. Yeah. So, obviously, I was a little bit thrilled.

Gasped, and then I was and then it got lower, but still that initial gasp is why

I have that shock. So I obviously wasn't thrilled with the domestic violence, but I'm glad he's not dead.

I completely agree. No further. And you know what? Maybe this will knock him down a few pegs, and he will DJ at the science museum.

Oh, it's just what his career needed.

Thank you, turdy Earth. Yeah. Welcome. So our first story, the aforementioned arrest of James Kennedy. He has been arrested for domestic violence.

Vanderpump rule star James Kennedy is in trouble with the law. TMZ learned the Bravo personality was arrested for misdemeanor misdemeanor domestic violence. Misdormeanor? Misdormeanor? Mister and missus Meaner.

That's like missy Elliot. Right? Misdemeanor.

Oh my god. I never put that together.

Yeah. Well, law enforcement sources told TMZ that Burbank police were dispatched to a home in the area Tuesday night after receiving a call about an argument between him and a woman. They're told a witness saw James and the woman arguing with James allegedly grabbing her at 1 point, though were told officers did not see any visible injuries on her. It's worth noting that James and his girlfriend, Ali Luber, appeared to attend a holiday party at Kathy's Hilton's home the night of the arrest. I'm sure she's thrilled

to be associated with this. Just peachy for Kathy.

After investigating the situation, police say they determined it was a domestic incident, leading to the DJ being arrested for misdemeanor domestic violence. He was released after posting $20,000 bail.

I mean, we have to assume he's drinking. Right?

Yeah. That's a big question here. I I don't actually not assume, but I feel like things don't reach this level for him

when he's not drinking. Think about, like, how badly you have to be fighting for a house.

Yeah. Not even in

an apartment complex. A house, like, for your neighbors to hear you. Like

Yeah. That's really fucking crazy fight. Police because it's, like, a scary

situation. Yeah. Yeah. And Ali had attended an event, like, later that day or the day after. Well, actually, that would be today.

So it was, like, later that night, seemingly, you know, all good. Yeah. But this is not all good. Like, this is not a good situation even if, you know,

it turned out to be just like a loud fight. Like, that's not healthy.

Yeah. And this is, like, a situation where normally, like, in a year from now, we would get a little bit of clarity

Mhmm.

Because of the show, but there is no show.

Right. So who knows when and if we'll ever know anything unless Ali shares, but I don't know if they're breaking up. Or

I don't I don't know why I feel like they're not. I don't feel like

they are either. Also, then Kristen Doty chimed in. I saw that too, finally.

She fucking hates him. Like, I and I don't know if she's ever really spoken, like, very directly about what exactly went down between them. She's, like, alluded to a bunch of different things, and she will take any opportunity. Like, she fucking hates him. But I would love to know, like, what really she had alluded to different forms of abuse and, like, domestic violence sort of not shocking her.

Yeah. I don't know. Maybe we'll hear more from her. Maybe we'll hear from him. I do think we'll hear from him.

He has a career in the public eye. You don't just, like, get arrested and then not address it and move on. So I think he'll probably put out a statement. Maybe he'll do some podcasting.

Oh my god. I saw the craziest podcast clip because James Kennedy reminds me a lot of weirdly Harry Jowsey. They just, like, have the same accent and, like, the same vibe. And Harry Jowsey was talking on his podcast. I feel like he doesn't really get serious.

But he was talking about he's from New Zealand, and it's legal there to do assisted suicide if you have, like, a terminal illness. And his dad, who was terminally ill, decided to do it. And he was, like, talking about it. I was, like, actually crying watching this podcast clip.

That's really sad.

I know. And then it got me thinking about assisted suicide. He was saying it's really hard to get approved. Like, you need to have a ton of doctor's paperwork, a million things to prove that you only have limited time left on this earth. Because it can't be abused.

You can't just decide that you don't wanna live for other reasons. It has to be medical. Which I kinda and I feel like it's a really hot button issue, but I kind of agree. Like, I I know we don't have it here, but, like, if you're terminally ill, like, you should be able to go out on your own. Do you agree?

I I have I don't know enough about it to to say.

Like, those did you see those suicide pods? I forget what country it was. Like, in the middle of, like, like, a jungle, you can, like, put yourself in this pod, and, like, it's, like, peacefully kills you.

Wow.

Yeah. It looked like the things they laid in in that movie with, Jennifer Lawrence. Sisters. Yes. How did you know that's what I was talking about?

Because we we haven't seen that many sci fi movies.

I haven't even seen it. How about that?

Oh, that's funny. I saw it. Switzerland.

Yeah. It looks like a spaceship. Like, I don't know if you could say.

And then what does it do to you? Just, like, takes all the

I I

don't know. Like, I don't know if it, like, gasses you or, like, takes all the oxygen out.

Yeah. I think it's a very nuanced conversation. Well, yeah, I feel like

this you can't just, like, pop in. I don't I don't think that should, like, be but, the way Harry Jazzy was talking about it, he didn't seem, like, resentful at all. I think, like, overall, he was, like, happy that his dad got to go out on his own terms and not be in in pain. Like, he had a a diagnosis that was just, like, you weren't coming back from. It was so interesting.

Not me expect like, so unexpectedly having these, kind of deep and complex conversations from Harry Jowsey.

Harry Jowsey's very layered.

Harry Jowsey is very layered. And I think a lot of people, myself included, like, we forget how we know Harry Jowsey. Right? Yeah. There was a time where Too Hot to Handle was, like, on its way to being, like, a Love is Blind, but they, like, took it too far, and it got weird.

No. It couldn't

be it could only be a 1 season wonder even though they did other seasons

because It wasn't sustainable.

People knew like, they were shocked when they found out the format. They did not know what kind of show

they were showing up for. No. But it's actually really crazy how that really launched the careers of 2 very successful celebrities, Francesca Barago and Harry Jowsey.

And, also, like, as a male reality star, it is hard to have longevity. Michael Bostick was just saying this about southern charm, and he's so right. Like, it's harder to make a brand in a business. Like, girls, you just, like, get on, you know, do your makeup.

Sell hair.

Yeah. Social media is a woman's game.

It's so hard. A woman's world.

It's harder for men to have longevity. So, actually, Harry Dowsy is very impressive.

I completely agree, and that's a really good point.

Yeah. Our next story, a little more legal news because Morgan Wallen has pleaded guilty and been sentenced to 7 days incarceration at DUI Education Center for drunkenly throwing a chair off a roof in Nashville.

Morgan, it's hard to plead anything other than guilty when there's another video of you doing it.

Yeah. Morgan Wallen will spend 7 days at a DUI Education Center months after he was arrested for throwing a chair from the roof of a Nashville bar. A judge in Nashville sentenced him to 1 week of incarceration, which will be served at the DUI Education Center as well as 2 years probation, 1 for each of his misdemeanor charges for reckless endangerment, and he also must pay a $350 fine. Well and, also, it's worth noting, his attorney said that mister Wallen has cooperated fully with authorities throughout these last 8 months directly communicating and apologizing to all involved. Mister Wallen remains committed to making a positive impact through his music and foundation.

Just stop throwing chairs. Okay? I think this is appropriate. Like, sorry. I think people are probably, like, it's crazy.

He's going he's not going to jail, first of all, but he is gonna have to, like, be away for a whole week. He'll survive. And then he's also on parole for 2 years, which means you have to behave. Like, if you violate your parole in any way, like, you would go to jail for 5 times longer than you would have if you had committed the crime not on parole. It's actually very serious now that I just read that book, The Many Lives of Mama Love.

Parole is not to be fucked with. So, Sandra Bullock, Harsher punishments for parole violators. Comes to mind here. She does.

Yeah. I think this feel like, this you do the crime. You do the time. Yeah.

I was just having this conversation because I've been begging my friend, Margo, to read Mike the Situation's book. Because, you know, I think a lot of people think think a lot of things about Mike the Situation, but if they read that his book, they would they would understand him more. Did you read it?

Like, if I saw your friend Margo walking down the street, like, with a gift bag, and you told me there's a book in that bag, can you guess what book this woman is reading? It would take me 5,000,000 guesses before

I thought she would be reading my situation. Classy woman.

But she loves elegant she's a lady.

But she loves reality TV, and she loves reading. And I've been trying to get her to read it, and she's reading it. She loves it. And she was texting me, like, it's really so crazy that he went to jail. And it is because he didn't violate the law on purpose.

Right? Like, their intent has to matter when it comes to a crime. He had no idea that he, like, wasn't paying his taxes. He had hired his brother who knew shit about fuck to do his money. And it should have been enough for him to pay it back and maybe do a little community service.

Like, him serving time in in a real prison was so crazy, but it's a part of this, I think, trend where celebrities really do get a harsher punishment because they like to be made an example out of similar with Charissa Juarez. If Charissa wasn't famous, she was just a housewife. She probably wouldn't have went to jail. Maybe she would have been on a house arrest or something. Like, and Todd Chrisley.

Mark Stewart. Todd Chrisley, I don't really feel applies because, like, Todd Chrisley Todd Chrisley really did that stuff, and he did it knowingly. The wife? Yeah. I don't know about the wife.

Like, the scale of what they did wasn't so big that they should be in prison for 14 years. Like, their sentence is crazy, but he did do that thing. He did break the law knowingly. Like, I feel like Mike's situation didn't, and Martha's thing was so stupid. She didn't even go to jail for breaking the law.

She went to jail for lying to the police. Whatever. And with this Morgan Wallen case, what do you think a a layperson's sentence would have been for throwing a chair off a roof?

I think they would have gotten a couple days in the slammer.

Yeah. Like, you think this is appropriate? You think that this is more because he's a celebrity, less because he's a celebrity? Maybe like Felicity Huffman going to jail.

You know? More because he's a celebrity. Maybe someone else would have gotten away with him. He just has, like, a history of bad behavior that, like, colors this, and it's, like, you know what? You need to pay the time.

Mhmm. But I don't think it's an over I think, like, he really could've he could've killed someone.

It's so true. I mean, I agree. I think it's fair.

And, like, it's a small sentence because no 1 got hurt, and it wound up being completely fine. But, like, it's a very dangerous thing to do. And, like, in order to not do stuff like that again, like, you need to learn your lesson.

Yeah. I guess the crazy thing is I think about, like, Justin Timberlake who was just driving drunk. Didn't hurt anyone, but could have, kind of like what you just said. And I feel like when you have a DUI, like, you don't go to jail. Like, when I think of celebrities, like, they get a mugshot, and they get, like, held for the night.

And when they get sentenced,

they don't, like, go to jail. Well, like Khloe did.

Yeah. Right.

But the jail is

just overcrowding.

But she was sentenced to jail. You do get sentenced to, like, maybe 30 days up to, like, something like that. Not for everyone. I think it just depends on the judge and the history of the person.

We all have heard stories. Talk enough that Khloe Kardashian, albeit for literally 1 afternoon, went to jail.

Yeah. I think Paris Hilton, like, what during that time, like, they were sentenced to time in jail. But then, like, due

to overcrowding and bureaucracy, like, sometimes it doesn't happen. Yeah. And there is a difference between jail and prison. Jail is, like, where they hold you, and I learned this in my book.

And he's also not going to jail. He's going to a rehabilitation center now. It's not gonna be Betty Ford. It's probably gonna be, like, a a tough place to be, not comfortable, not cushy, but it's not jail.

No. But I think before you get sentenced, it can take, like, a year for your case to finally make to finally get a sentence from the time that you're arrested. And some people are held without bail, and some people are held with bail, and they can't pay it. So they go to jail, which is kind of like this holding space till you figure out if you're gonna be free, if you're gonna go to prison. And I think based on my book and then also, I was actually watching Brooke Scofield talk about this because I think her mom, went to prison.

Once you get to, like, a federal prison, especially the women's, like, low security ones, she was like, they're not what you think. The federal like, the federally funded ones, like, they have iPads. They have salons. Like, you you kind of, like, not camp, but it's not what people think. Jail, where they sort of just hold you for literally a year.

Actually, in the book that I was reading, it was not a cell. It was like this open, like, bunk bed room, like, kind of like an orphanage.

Mhmm.

Yeah. Book was really good. I feel like everyone should read it. It was called the many lives of mama love.

No. You're definitely moving the needle. It's on my TBR, but the more you talk about it, the more I'm like, oh, I

It reminded me a lot of Mike the situations book, which is why I it was reminded for me to tell my friend, Margo, because she was dealing with, like, a heroin issue. Understood. Yeah.

Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. Not any legal news. Kim Kardashian scooted her way into her SKIMS event in Sky High Heels despite her broken foot. So a lot of things happening.

SKIMS opened a flagship store in New York City, like a a major

On 5th Avenue, like, where everybody's

multistory flagship that is, like, reserved for the base brands.

She's in the same, like, neighborhood as Cartier, as Dior, as Prada. Like, she thinks she did that, and it's literally a gorgeous store.

Gorgeous store. So not only did she reach that level of retail success, she went to the opening. She looked beautiful. She had a broken foot. She rode in on a scooter.

I didn't even know that she had a broken foot. That was my first time.

I didn't know either, but she wasn't gonna let that stop her from her attending her big event or looking really amazing. She looked beautiful.

She looked beautiful.

And then there was also a dinner to celebrate this momentous occasion, and so many swirlies were in attendance, like, past SKIMS faces. Adrienne Bylon.

Adrienne Bylong, Cardi B, Ice Spice, Tate McRae, Meghan Trainor. Just, like, really, everyone came out to support Kimberly. Yeah. It's kind of a really big deal. Like, obviously, so many celebrities have, like, successful brands, but to really transform your brand to retail, but not only retail, like 5th Avenue, it's actually really sick.

SKIMS is amazing.

Yeah. It is. It's kind

of a perfect segue into our next sponsor.

know, if you wanna finish the story, but

I will go

through it.

But, also, they have really curated gift guides. And I feel like people just put gift guides on their website. They just throw a bunch of crap in there. They're not well thought out at all. Somebody at saxx.com has been spending all year on their gift guide.

Because it's actually like, oh, that isn't a guide. Like, I'm feeling guided. Thank you. I know what I want to get as a gift. So, if there's someone in your life who's very like sporty spice, they would recommend Prada running sneakers.

If there's somebody in your life who's very into glam, they would recommend, not your average beauty products that we all know, but perhaps a La Mer Lip Volumizer Lip Gloss, or perhaps, I don't know, a Charlotte Tilbury Glowgasm. I don't know, just an idea. They are recommending things like, I don't know, are good. Thank you.

I don't even know what to say. Damn. Well, our next story, some good news. Let's hear a

good charitable news. Taylor Swift visited a children's hospital, on Thursday night in Kansas City, the Children's Mercy Kansas City Hospital, and she took pictures with a bunch of the patients. She made TikToks. She was talking about Travis. Just, like, really so warm and lovely.

I fucking love this woman. Let me tell you. And even if she had came in with a photographer and took a 1000000 pictures with everyone and posted them on her Instagram and did a press release, I wouldn't even think I people, like, hate on her, and they're like, well, she looked she did charity just for attention. The fact that every piece of footage that came out of this was from, like, a parent filming and a TikTok, Taylor's team did not release anything. She so did not go for that.

But even if she did, like, you know those kids would have loved being on her fucking Instagram.

Like, what? She did, that's better than no charity work at all.

But the sheer fact that, like, we know about this because all the parents like, seriously, the parents hand the parents cared more about Taylor than the kids. I was dying. Every clip I saw, I watched a 1000 times. Like, let me just tell you. She's so special.

Like and and to see her doing it, like, in Travis's community, like, just ads. But even if she went to any hospital, and you know she does the Children's LA, she does all of them. But to see it in his community, like, I actually got choked up. I was like, no. She's a big change in

the community, and it's very much, like, it's WAG behavior. That's this is like the WAGs do a lot of the philanthropy in their beacons in the community, like, all all of the big ones. Britney is such

a such a big leader in her community.

And she's not doing this because she's a WAG, but, like, it just it's so she does it we've seen her do it other times as well, but, like, it's doing it in his place of work. Yep. It's very beautiful and really I feel like she's really making Kansas City her home.

No. And I just know, like, Taylor got home. She spent all day with those kids, and she got home and, like, started crying in Travis's arm. Because it's, like, a lot to see kids like that and have to be, like, you know, just joy. And you it's, like, you don't even know the right thing to say.

Mhmm. And, you know, she's From the very early on in her career, she's always really connected with Sick Kids. And Ronan is obviously a huge and she takes that on. She's such an empath. You know?

So I just know she was really sad yesterday. Like, I just know she smiles for everyone, and then she got in the car and totally started crying. You know? Yeah. Yeah.

It's a lot to spend all day. And a lot of celebrities do this. A lot of them do Make A Wish. There's that famous video of Florence Welch, whose kid's dream it was to sing Shake It Off with her. And it's so cute.

It's very heavy, like, especially for those Make A Wish ones. Like, it's very hard.

Yeah. So just a very sweet moment from the laird.

And she looked so cute. Adorable, lovely outfit. Yeah. I just I just love her. And I love that, like, she stopped working, what, 3 days ago.

She probably flew back 2 days ago from wherever she was, Canada. And it's, like, back to the community, back to the kids. Yeah. And I do also love that about her because we were all, like, that age when we started, like, loving Taylor Swift, but now the majority of her fans are, like, grown grown women. And kids are, like, always the kind of what's the word I'm looking for?

Kind of always at, like, the forefront of like, the fact that she still does the 22 hat well, not still, that she does the 22 hat when, like, she's actually not a pop star for 6 year olds anymore. She was, but she's, like, always keeping kids top of mind. It's, like, so sweet.

Yeah. No. She protects the children. She protects the children.

She protects the children. She, like, loves kids. She really loves kids.

No. But some people have, like, an a special love of children. Yes. And she does. Yes.

The surrogate.

Just makes you wonder.

No. And all the TikToks, like, the dancing. Like, it was, genuinely, it was too fucking much for me. It was so sweet. Yeah.

Everything, it makes me cry. Like, I cried 500 times. I cried myself to sleep last night because Jackie sent me the cutest fucking video of her kids. Like and I was just I don't even know why I was crying. I was, Jackie, my pillow was soaking wet.

Ben was like, are you okay? It was reminding me of when Ben told me that he was playing the piano to Vanessa Carlton, and I literally could not stop crying. It was the same exact feeling. It was kind of sad. Even though the video wasn't sad, it was just pure.

It was pure. And it was the same thing with Ben's Vanessa Carlton piano, like pure You're trying to learn Vanessa Carlton on the piano. Jackie, I was in fucking consoleable, like seriously. Because I was like And I saw the video already. I'd seen it earlier that day, but then before bed, I was like, Wait, Ben, you gotta see this cute video Jackie sent.

And he was like, it's so cute. But, like, are you okay? Everything makes me cry. That the videos of Taylor and the guy being like he was like it was obviously dad's turn to to be in the hospital. Mom maybe went to work, but mom is the biggest Swifty.

And they didn't get any notice. I think Taylor just, like, showed up 1 day, and the dad's hand is shaking. He's, like, my wife is coming. So he's, like, trying to, like, stall. He's, like, she's on her she's literally running.

She's went to the ER store 3 times, like, hand shaking on the on the phone. And the kid, like, doesn't like he he's, like, he's not a tailor like Stan. You know? He was just like she she brought everyone copies of her book, and he he was like, maybe you can make it out to my mom.

But, also, it's, like, it's so nice for the parents, like, what they're going through. It's just she's giving birth to everyone. And then the nurses who took pictures with her was, like, didn't expect to see Taylor Swift today. And you know

that, like, I don't like, name a fucking harder job. Like, the coal miners can never. Being, like, a pediatric nurse in a hospital, like Yeah. She's such a queen for this. I fucking love her.

And I know a lot of celebrities do this. It's actually a very common philanthropic thing to go to children's hospitals, which is so sweet. Ryan Seacrest is actually a huge part of that children's LA hospital. I think he's on the board, but he literally, any celebrity that owes him a favor, he makes them go. Like, it's so sweet.

So she's not, like, unique, but it's just She did it today. So we're talking about the chat.

She did it today. She did it beautifully.

And, more of this, like, all celebrities, go. Go to all of them. Like, they I feel like the LA 1 gets

a lot. Like, go to what in Minnesota? As Taylor did, Missouri, Kansas border.

And you're right. This is, like, very like, sports like, the athletes go in their communities. It's it's a really nice thing. This is, like, 1 of the really nice things about sports and the NFL is, like, they require all their players to, like, do this 4 or 5

times daily. We saw on the show. Yes. They're always giving back to the community. They meet with veterans and go to old age homes, and it's really, really nice.

So sweet.

So sweet. Are you ready for our 5th and final story? Yes. It's random that this is the 5th and final story of the year because I feel like it should be more, like, pointed, but I I liked it. Whatever.

So Jim Carrey is talking about the potential for a Grinch sequel and what the movie, the Grinch, means to him and the way that it's been received. And we're also getting a lot of interesting facts about doctor Seuss and the Grinch. And I I I live in a very big Grinch house, so maybe I am personally invested, but that movie fucking rocks.

No. And there are many different versions of the Grinch, and nobody Nobody. In all of us has ever done it. So Like Jim Carrey. Like, it's it is the greatest comedic acting feat, seriously, of our time.

This is what he said. He said he'd be open to filming of of a sequel of the live action How the Grinch Stole Christmas, but with a caveat. So he said playing his character required wearing copious amounts of makeup and being covered head to toe in green faux fur and heavy prosthetics. In an interview with Comic Book, he said he'd do another film if we could figure out the Grinch. The thing about it is on the day, I do that with a ton of makeup and can hardly breathe, and it was incredibly excruciating process.

The children were in my mind all the time. It's for the

literally Taylor's Web.

It's for

the kids. It's for the kids. And now with motion capture and things like that, I could be free to do other things. Anything is possible in this world. Now, as comic book noted, Carrie would be 1 of the be 1 of only a select few actors who would ever be able to portray the Grinch due to strict guidelines set by the estate of doctor Seuss, who died in 1991.

Per the estate, the actor cast as the Grinch had to be of a very particular height and frame. In a letter outlining examples of actors who would fit the characteristics, Carrie along with Jack Nicholson, Robin Williams, and Dustin Hoffman were mentioned.

Oh, great. 50% dead. Right. But they were just giving examples of the height of guilt.

However, somehow, Matthew Morrison passed muster.

Okay. Well, let me say this because I'm actually not surprised to hear Jim Carrey talking about this because a video interview he did somewhat recently went viral because he's in Sonic the Hedgehog movie.

And, like He's making headlines because he's doing press for his new movie, Sonic the Hedgehog. And this

is, like, 1 of the greatest actors, seriously, of our time, 1 of the greatest comedic minds of our time, and he don't leave his house. Like, he doesn't really work anymore. And I think a lot of people were shocked to see him doing a movie for the first time in so long. And it's Sonic the Hedgehog. And he was very, I don't know if he was joking, but he went viral.

He was like, I need money. And this is what you do when you need money. Like 1 of these big stupid. And people were like, has he really wasted away his $180,000,000 fortune? Because that was his net worth up until recently.

So, it kind of sounds like it might be because if he's open to doing the Grinch, he obviously needs the money.

But the Grinch is actually like, it seems silly, but it is 1 of the biggest Christmas movies of like, it's top 5 Christmas movies. He said, when I sit at home and I put on the TV and I see the Grinch up there being viewed by everybody every Christmas, it's so gratifying. It's unbelievable. There really is truly incredible magic in the universe, which is true. And, also, like, there is a written Grinch sequel.

Right. And the story goes on forever.

How the Grinch lost Christmas.

Right. Where, like, everybody loves him.

Everybody loves it.

Part of Whoville. Yeah.

And he's, like, in the Christmas tree competition for who can make the best sense.

Of his own way.

But he's still being so competitive that he ignores Cindy Lou, brushes her off even though she's making the most meaningful tree. And, again, he's lost the spirit of Christmas because he he wanted to be the best instead of being a part of it. But then, of course

The fact that this, like, story exists is the only reason there should be a sequel. If there wasn't, like, stop.

Yeah. Agreed. And I think it would be great with Jim Carrey because he was fantastic.

I know Jim Carrey, like, doesn't like public life, and he doesn't like being famous. I think he loves the art of what he does, but he doesn't like, you know, the celebrity of it all. But I desperately need, like, a Netflix documentary. I feel like he's so underrated because he doesn't he's not thirsty at all. He never leaves the house.

Yeah. And I feel like he's kind of dark and twisted. Like, I would love to know a

lot more about Jim Carrey. Agreed. I don't think Jim

Carrey wants you to know

he's not interested in being understood. He just No.

Or he's not interested in being, like, lauded, like, his legacy. Like, he doesn't give a fuck. Yeah. It's true. But I do.

Think about all the movies, like, growing up, Ace Ventura, Priscilla Moriarty, Truman Show. Like Liar Liar Liar. Liar Liar. He literally like, that genre of we were, like, low key huge Jim Carrey fans growing up, but I think everybody was.

We were huge Jim Carrey fans growing up.

We had Liar Liar on VHS. Like, seriously, we watch it every fucking day.

Yeah. Because, like, I feel like other comedians of his elk in that time, like, don't resonate for me. Just I missed it. Well, we were really young.

A lot of comedians of that time, like, didn't stay in the family friendly genre. Like, he always made movies that were, like, max pg 13.

Yeah. He never, like, went on to do, like, you know, Oscar movies, like Steve Carell.

Yeah. Yeah. Steve Carell was, like, at the same level as Jim Carrey for a while, but then he decided he wanted to be, like, Oscar. Yeah. Yeah.

No. He's he's 1 of a kind.

No. I'm here. I'm ready for Grinch too.

And I'm ready for the the untold story of Jim Carrey, honestly. I think it would he doesn't care, but I think, like, it would He could he could write a book.

I feel like that would be a really good medium for him. Yes.

He would

have full control, you know, tell the parts

he wants to tell. But I feel like the documentarians of the world are always looking for, like, the next big thing. You know? It's Jim Carrey.

Yeah. Yeah.

So go knock on his door. Like, bother him, earn his trust, give him Final Cut.

Yeah. Final Cut Pro. If you gave

him Final Cut, he would do it. What the hell is going on? Remember the rumors that he was dating Ariana Grande?

Yeah. I believe them. He also about that all the time. Wants the money. I does he have children?

I don't

think so. I don't think he ever married.

Like is all his money? Maybe he, like, really likes the high life. Maybe he's got a plane.

I'm sorry. He has a daughter. Oh. Jane Carey.

That's nice.

Maybe She was in a TV show called Defying Gravity, the untold story of women's gymnastics.

Oh, interesting. And maybe she likes Birkins.

And And I'm sorry. He was married. This is how private he is. He was married actually from 87 to 95, so 5, help, 8 years, to Melissa Womer. She's an actress.

Well, her name is Melissa. It was Melissa Carey. Wow. She went all the way.

We need to know more.

Jim Carey wives and girlfriends.

I wanna know girlfriends. Like, how has he not had, like, so many

Oh. Flings? Renee Zellweger, Jenny McCarthy, and more. Love. Oh my goodness.

Linda Ronstadt, he they duo dated for 8 months in 83. 83. Melissa Womer, who he married, they share a daughter, Jane, from 87 to 95. Lauren Holly, I guess, she was his costar in Dumb and Dumber, another movie that he did in 96, and they got married for less than a year. Renee Zellweger, they met on the set of Me, Myself, and Irene.

They were engaged from 1999 to 2000. Carrie later called Zellweger the great love of his life during an interview with Howard Stern in 2020. So 20 years later, he said that. January Jones. 2002.

Shit. Oh, Anine Bing. The designer? The designer. The she was a model at the time.

They dated for a year before pulling the plug on their romance. And I feel like I might have known this Jenny McCarthy. A year after meeting in 2005, they went public with their relationship and then called it quits in 2010. So they did it for a significant amount of time. After Jenny McCarthy claimed in 2012 that Jim Carrey turned his back on her then 10 year old son, Jim Carrey told Us Mag Us Weekly in a statement, I will always do what I believe is in the best interest of Evan's well-being.

That's weird. Excuse me? Then after that, he dated Angel Joseph with the former America's Next Top Model in 2011. Right? This man has had a 1,000,000 girlfriends.

Anastasia Vipina famous for 50 years. Oh, this is where things get weird. Several months later, so this is, what, 2,000 and 11. I don't know how old he is. He was he was linked with an NYU student, Anastasia Vitikina.

How old is he now? 60?

Then in 2015 oh, right. Remember, he was with Kathreona White who died. Yeah. So they dated from 2012 to 2015. He was ruled a suicide by prescription drug overdose.

He was also implicated in 2 wrongful death lawsuits filed by her ex husband, which were eventually dismissed. I remember that. And then that's his last known public relationship. Oh, no. And then Ginger Gonzaga, a Canada native, went public with a Space Force alum at 2019 Golden Globes party, and then they split in October.

So, like, he went on a date with someone.

Yeah. But he's also definitely, like, date he he likes to have a girlfriend. So he's definitely hating people, but maybe now more quietly ever since, like, the tragedy and Ariana Grande for sure.

It's so funny how, like, Taylor Swift has had a lot of boyfriends. Seriously, not as many as Jim Carrey. I was the list never ended.

Well,

Claudia, he's been in the public eye since

the eighties. Like It's true. It's true. It's true. It's true.

It's actually not even a that's not, even a lot. It's just a lot of time has passed. The passage of time is significant.

I feel like we go down rabbit holes every now and then that, like, are uninteresting and that we've been down before. That was, like, 1 of the most interesting articles I've ever read.

No. I know. I need more now. We need him on the pod, dream guest. Should I add him to the list?

Add him Yeah. A 1000%. He does not do interviews. He certainly doesn't do podcasts even though he went on Howard Stern.

No. And, like, we're so low stakes. Come on.

Listen. We'll cut out whatever you wanna cut out. We'll accept your day.

We're here to

have you. We're not here to expose anyone. Like, we literally only wanna have our faves on. This is is fun.

Talk about Sonic. Talk about whatever you want. Fuck. We literally don't give a fuck. Okay.

Let's dive into the TV recap segment. Should we do Yellowstone or Southern Charm first?

Do Yellowstone because I think it's shorter, it sounds like.

It is. Nothing happened. I have nothing to recap except there were 2 notable cameos. 1, unfortunately, Bella Hadid.

This has put me at a crossroads, Claudia. I do hate to go from here.

I hated the episode so much.

Episodes to watch, and this show is, like, 1 of my fave it was a safe space.

Also, they said next week is the season finale. Why didn't they call it the series finale?

Oh, I don't know.

Me and Ben were so confused. We were like, is this an Easter egg?

They're confusing. Okay.

So she was in the episode quite a bit. Like, I seriously just gave

my niece out, like, she shared it in his girlfriend.

Yeah. But she's getting dragged for it. It's like, okay. Sure. And he obviously, like, didn't wanna wrap up the show without putting himself in it, like, a little bit more and making himself out to be, like, this cool guy horse trainer.

Beth was like to Bella Hadid, like, what do you see in him? Like, he's such a dick. And she was like, have you ever seen him ride? And then they did, like, a whole slow mo of Tyler Sheridan, like, riding the horse, and Beth was like, I get it. Like, okay.

It was Taylor Sheridan writing fan fiction about himself. Okay? Like, it was actually cringe. I'm upset. But the more notable cameo that I cannot believe nobody is talking about, I couldn't get over it.

And it was such an unremarkable part of the episode. Beth goes to a bar and just, like, wants to fuck with some guy. Like, she's, like, picks some random guy out of a crowd and is, like, you're a loser. You sucked a cock once. Like, she just and the actor is Bart Johnson.

Stop. Coach Bolton. Seriously, I had never been so happy in my whole life. It actually kind of, like, undid all the negative thoughts I had about casting up until that point of Bella Hadid. Oh my god.

I was cracking up so much. His, like, his character was, like, literally on screen for 5 seconds as a big loser. And Blake Lively's brother-in-law. Blake Lively's brother-in-law. And Beth was like, once you suck a cock, you're just a cocksucker.

Like, it was so funny.

Not coach Bolton.

No. No. It was so fucking funny. I didn't see enough people talking about that. And if I had to recap any other part of the episode, I actually couldn't.

It was so boring.

And I don't spoil the plot in case I'm able to.

I'm not. But every single episode this season has been an hour and 15 minutes for literally no reason. They could cut the 15 minutes. They could fit the whole thing in 10 minutes. Yeah.

And I like that they draw it out. Like, there's a lot of unnecessary conversations.

They've got 14,000,000 viewers. They've got ads to sell. Let them know. It's the end of the show. Like, unless they can move us all to land man, it's about I

wanted to say something. There was a lady on my flight when I was flying down to you right in front of me watching land man, and it actually looked so good.

I heard really good things about land man. However, I did see a scene that was really terrible between

Me too.

Billy Bob.

The dad and the daughter.

AFC from Barstool posted it. Yeah.

I saw

it there too.

It was, like, cringe incest, like, weirdness.

It was so weird. It was him asking the daughter, like, if she's having sex with her boyfriend. Stop. It was so fucking weird.

And when you hear land man, what do you think of?

Land man.

No. Come on. Close. Really close. Land man.

You're a?

Land man. You're a bad man, she said. It's gonna be top 4 legends coming in. I don't think of Sandman and Spidey, but I also think of mister Sandman,

bring me a dream a dream.

So there's a lot there, but I've also heard this show called blank is the best show ever.

It's called blank? Do you wanna fill in the blank? Blank. I don't know. I don't know what you're referring to.

What channel is it? Like it's on it gets, advertised on Paramount. Hold on. I'm gonna find the show because I actually I've heard so many great things that I think I'm gonna watch it. Olivia's watching Paramount shows.

Hold on.

Paramount shows that Olivia Astray is watching.

Lioness. Haven't heard of it. You haven't? I've heard that that's the 1 to watch from

a number of different places. 1923 yet?

No. Oh, wait. Hold on. You're missing out. To my plate.

That Brendan Sklenar in Africa. Plate. Every time they went back to Montana in that show, I was like, no. Go back to Africa. Like, it's so good.

Okay. So 1923 and Lioness 1 day.

I have to finish 18/83, and I thought it was boring.

Yeah. I didn't finish 18/83.

Alright. Now please tell us what went down in Charleston, Southern Charm.

Last night season 2, the gang's all back. So we're dealing with JT is seriously, like, the craziest actor. Not that he's

in acting, but, like, as an

an actor, as a human being, like, acting, but, like, as an an actor, as a human being, like, literally so crazy. So first of all

I believe the word you're looking for is person.

Yeah. Individual. So last episode, like, he has all this beef with Austin, and, also, he, like an ATV fell on him during the off season, so he's, like, walking with a cane now. And he decided he had this, like, really terrible idea to, they stopped they were going to some horse race and he, like, got canes for everyone as, like, an olive branch. It was so weird and he had, like, a really bad pun in it.

It made me uncomfortable, so I'm not even gonna repeat it, but it's just, like, loser behavior. And what he did was he gave a cane to everyone, like, making fun of his own cane, and he gave a cane also to miss Patricia.

And

And how did she receive that?

She absolutely hated it. Everyone was, like, seriously dying, like, you don't give a cane to an 80 year old woman. Like, seriously Yeah.

She actually doesn't need 1 yet.

Like uronic behavior. So he's kind of has to, like, deal with the fallout from that. But then he goes to, like, play golf with Chep and Craig, and he's just being, like, really fucking crazy, like, saying the wildest stuff about how, like, he thinks that Madison's husband is worried that JT and Madison, like, got together in Jamaica. Like, he's not nobody was thinking. Nobody's worried about that.

Like, he's just, like, really I don't know why I didn't see it last season, but, like, biggest loser ever.

Out there?

Yeah. Really, really crazy. Miss Patricia had an Easter brunch where she invited just, you know, the top tier of the cast, which I used to I don't know if I've gotten older, so I have more appreciation for Patricia, or she's, like, backed away from being so involved in the drama and is just, like, hosts people and doesn't, like, say nasty comments about people. I don't know, but I'm really appreciating her value in the show now, and I love her home. And she's so close with Madison, who is literally the greatest of all time.

Like

I saw that clip about I didn't know her husband had thyroid cancer.

Yeah. That was really sad. They were, like, making breakfast, and they were just being, like, so adorable. And her son, Hudson, he's 12, and I was, like, what a a beautiful perfect thing. And then, like, he starts complaining about this pain in his throat, and we find out that there this what's going on.

He has thyroid cancer, and now he's having some complications. And then they're just sitting down for breakfast, and he just, like, it turned so sad. She also had been wanting to, like, have more kids with him, but those plans have been put on pause while he's going through this. So it was just really sad, but then I was listening to Madison on skinny confidential podcast. And what I didn't realize, but this seemed to have been well known, is that Madison was doing hair and makeup for the cast of Southern Charm.

She was, in the crew for many years before she went on the show. So Interesting. I thought that was so interesting. And she went on the show with Austen's girlfriend, but, also, like, it seemed like production, like, could tell that she like, let's get this girl in front of the

camera. Star.

And it it worked out really well that way. But now as far as, like, leading ladies on the show, like, it's Madison show. She's, like, narrating it.

Oh, wow.

She does a lot of the commentary as, like, the voice of reason, and she's just I love her

so much. She's, like, so gorgeous. It's she's gorgeous.

Insane, and I just she's hysterical too. So when she found out that, like, JT is, like, saying this stuff, like, she's next week. She's gonna Sure. She's eating him for breakfast. Can't

Sure, JT.

Freaking wait. Then Craig, and he's at his house, which is so beautiful, showing us his gardens, his spritz, like, just living this quieter life. Shep is, like, dating this girl who it seems like based on previews and also on watch what happens live, like, is totally using him, and it's, like, an end really. She's, like, miss Bahamas. That's she is, like, you know, a pageant winner, miss Bahamas.

Of the Bahamas.

She's obviously, like, very beautiful and very young and, like, I think just, like, wants to be on the show and is, like Obsessed. With Shep. So that seems to go south, but Taylor's dating a new guy who they seem really good together. I don't know why Shep was talking.

And does Shep still, like, pine for Taylor? Shep is

the reason why Shep and Taylor didn't work out and aren't together. So she's, like, saying her grandma wishes it was me, and her parents wish she was still dating me. And it's, like, I'm sure Taylor at some point which she's moved on. Like, let her be. Like, you don't want a future with her, so why can't you just support her being happy with anyone else?

And it's not Austen. You should be pleased.

Right.

So just good to see the gang, really.

Yeah.

And I don't know. I just I love the world of of southern charm.

It's a beautifully shot show too. Like, everybody looks nice. The houses are nice. Charlton is Charlton is pretty.

And then

and then Claudia, you're gonna be livid. So they were having brunch Easter brunch at miss Patricia's. There's a new cast member named Molly. She's been, like, in the background of other some one's guest here. She came to a party with Whitney.

She's had, like, stuff with Whitney over the years, and she's very open. She used to be a model, but she has a, like, a thyroid issue and she's gained a lot of weight over the years, on and off, up and down. She gained £45 in 2020. She's lost 20 of it. She was talking at the table, and she's got 15 more to go, whatever.

Then they were having cupcakes for dessert, and she, like, made hers, like, a sandwich, like you said, on your in your gender reveal. And she's showing everyone how she eats it, and Whitney's, like, that's the last thing you need. Claudia. And, like, he thinks he can say that because they're, like, old friends. And she didn't even she's, like it wasn't even she probably was she was hurting.

She said, like, what the fuck? But, like, she didn't even give it to him like it needed to be given, but it was, like, so awful. Like, I don't know how Whitney is still around.

Okay.

And not enough people are make making I feel like if it was anybody else who said that they'd be canceled over finish, like, I don't know why. Maybe because Whitney's, like, not an Internet person.

And he's, like, a producer.

I don't know. But it was just like, what?

I I mean, also, like, pot kettle, you are so ugly. Like, those in Glass Houses, you can't be commenting on other people's looks. Like, okay. Maybe you don't struggle with your weight, but you struggle with your fucking face. Oh my god.

I'm so mad.

No. It was so crazy.

Like, he's always the uglies. It's always the uglies. Like, nobody, like, outrightly beautiful is ever commenting on other people's looks. Let's just be real.

No. It was so crazy. And, also, she's a beautiful girl. Like and even if she got

hit fucking hate

it. Hate.

Wow. That's such a crazy story. That's like you don't see that a lot. Like No.

In 2024, like, doesn't everyone know on television?

Last the last time I remember saying that was Jersey Shore. Yeah.

When I'm

saying She said just a key when he said to Chloe Oh. About a big dinner.

Oh. 0, no. I'm thinking of before that Jersey Shore where they're in Atlantic City for, like, a fun weekend, and they're all fighting, but, like, Snooki, they're at dinner, and he's like Snooki says pass the roles. And situation was, like, you don't have enough of those?

Jail. That's why they sent you to jail.

Yeah. I know now that at the time, he was probably on, like, about 60 Percocet a day, so, like, maybe I'll make an allowance for it, but, like, I'm still upset Yeah. On behalf of Snooker. No.

And then also when, like, Alex's weird fucking cousin, Pauley, said to Chloe, like, you don't need she said, we're gonna have a big dinner tonight. Like, because they were on the cast vacation. He was like, you

don't need a big dinner. Jail. Wait. Also, this happened on housewives. Somebody said to Margaret Teresa said to Margaret, like, big dinner.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She never misses a dinner, something like that.

Yeah. Yeah. She was like, can we just eat, like, and stop fighting? And Teresa's like, well, you would never miss a meal. Fucking bitch.

I literally like, there's even if I don't even like you and somebody calls you out, like, I will defend you till the day I die. Like, it bothers me so much.

So crazy. So that was just, like, really crazy that that happened, like, in going on 2025 on my television for someone who's been on TV for 12 years and is an executive producer and should know how to behave. Right.

Like, have you learned nothing? Right. Let's dive into our final segment, the 7th thing we needed to get to today. Hate about you. Yeah.

Queenie and Weenie. So Queenie and Weenie is the weekly segment where Jackie and I like to wrap up the week, put a little bow on things, and give 2 awards, Queenie of the week and Weenie of the week to 2 different people. 1 who someone who acted like a queen. It could be a personal place or a thing. It could be, you know, an entity.

And weenie of the week, somebody who acted like a weenie. Now, it's not somebody who broke the law or somebody who did anything, like, terribly hurtful, but just, you know, like a fun little 7 day title. Although, today's queenie and weenie will be, like, a 3 week title because we're going

off. So

So that's unfortunate.

So I'll start with my Queenie, shall I? No.

I think we should start with weenie and, like, end the whole show on, like, a really positive note.

Okay. Well, my weenie of the week is MGK, Cheating on your pregnant girlfriend, who's your twin fire flame soul, blood sister in Christ.

Like, they're always, like, sharing blood.

It's such weenie behavior. It's more than that, but, like, what is you doing? And not being able to stop texting bitches for 5 minutes, like,

wiener. Grow up. I love that. He definitely crossed my mind Mhmm. For potential.

Now I had 2. Which 1 do I want to go with?

Give me the runner-up and then crown.

The runner-up. And she's not really weenie, but she just did something so weenie this week on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Like, I remember when I saw Garcelle butting into the conversation being like, I agree. I I remember thinking. I'm like, oh, noted for weenie of the week in case nobody else does anything more weenie.

Like and I I hate

to do it because I'm sorry. That's definition weenie. Like, MGK is actually an asshole, but, like, weenie?

Yeah. And it's like, nobody asked. And I'm, like, I'm such a rider die for Garcelle.

Like, we know you. We already knew that. Whatever anyone said against Doreen, we know that you agree.

And Doreen, like, not engaging with that and being, like, I'm sorry. Was that English? Queenie. Like, made it so weenie like even more. So she was my runner-up.

But, honestly, like, watching Yellowstone last night and seeing Taylor Sheridan, like, I Jackie, you need to see it. He like, we know that he's, like, this world renowned horse trainer. Right? But Beth actually has to go down to him to ask for a favor. So, we see how he lives his life, like selling horses, sexy girls in the pool, and playing poker and deep frying corn dog.

And it's just like this is how he wanted to be perceived by the world, Taylor Sheridan. And it was so losery, like And the whole scene, like, Have you seen him ride? And then he's like in his arena, like

chasing around this little bull.

Like, it was just It was actually so losery. It's major weenie of the week energy. Okay. I love that. Yeah.

Now, Queenie, share yours with me. Mine is definitely, like, a little bit it's not about this week in particular. It's really just, like, my Queenie of, like, the year.

Okay. This is not my Queenie of the year. My Queenie of the week, though, is something that we talked about in next week's Patreon episode, but we haven't spoken about here, which is that at the Hard Rock Seminole Casino this weekend, someone won over $2,000,000 at the casino. And Yes. The Girlie Sprouty live show was at the Hard Rock this weekend.

The odds that this person is a toaster are extremely high. So my queenie of the week is the toaster who likely won almost $3,000,000 this weekend at Girly Swirly's night out. I know she And I know

she won it in Florida, so, like, the tax situation is much better than if she had were to win it in, like, a casino elsewhere.

Don't feel like this person's gonna come forward because, like, they're dealing with a lot.

It's like,

you know, when you win the lottery, like, everyone starts coming out of the woodwork. Like, she's not gonna come forward publicly. They start acting different. In my heart of hearts, I know that a toaster won $3,000,000 this weekend at JSNO, and, like, that's my queen right there.

And if it couldn't be me, I'm happy it was her. Yeah.

Yeah. And I'm happy that we brought her there. Like, we're a part of that. And a thousand people like it was ever cut, but okay.

My queenie is a lot of people, actually. You know, we have had such a wonderful year, and I just wanted to wrap up by saying thank you to so many of the people who make this show go round. Mostly our sponsors who are so ride or die. Like, you know, we do this show.

We have the best listeners. Getting to go on tour this year and, like, see them in real life and everybody getting dressed up and, like, bringing funny signs and gifts, like, it was just the definition of pargilish. And everybody I just mentioned is seriously the biggest fucking queenie of all time.

That's so beautiful and so meaningful, and I completely agree. This community is filled with queenies. If you're listening to us right now, you are the queenie, and we love you dearly.

And however however you listen Yeah. No.

But if you're hearing these words if you're hearing these words as we're reading them, you're a queenie. Just know that.

Just, like, look inward. What do you see? Queeniedom. I see queenie behavior. Queeniehood.

So that is so beautiful. I completely concur. Thank you to everyone who helps make the show go round. Thank you to our partners and our teams and Our partners. Our families, just everyone in our worlds.

Shout out to Ben. I don't know what we would talk about if we weren't making fun of him half the time, and he's such a good sport about it. And he's the best, so shout out to him. Our roses are, of course, our husband. Perug.

Perug. Perug. And, yeah, I hope we're not missing anyone. That would be so awkward.

I know. But I feel like no. Think about who we sent holiday gifts to. Yeah. That's what I was thinking.

Yeah. All of our TNN partners. So Shannon, Ben, and Tom Shannon, and the redheads.

The redheads, Dana. Ugh. Just every ride.

I'm I'm
