Transcript of Taking Accountability on the Road: Wednesday, January 14th, 2026

Good morning, girlies. It's The Toast. It's Jackson Claude, and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show, the fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly, it's The Toast.

They sound amazing.

Welcome back to The Toast, and happy Hump Day. Don't forget to tell me when you love, and speaking with somebody that I love. And as you guys know, would do anything to Hump. It's Jackie O, Jacqueline Follet, Jacquie, how are you doing?

I'm doing well. Thank you. Happy to be a guest on Coachee's Corner today. Yes.

Thank you all for tuning in to this news segment we are calling Coachee's Corner, where Coachee sits in a corner and tells I see how she feels.

Sounds amazing.

And she culex community members and cugees.

I'm wearing a hat on the show today, a little baseball cap, a little toasty merch, even though our merch takes an eternity to come.

You'll look like that.

The hats are top quality fabric, and It's just I feel like it's a different vibe. Who knows what's going to happen?

Do you remember our hat era? Sometimes clips will come across my desk of when you and I wore hats a couple of times for a week. What? Yeah, we had a hat era.

I can count on my hands the times I've worn a hat on this show. And it's so few because it's not like I did it and never wanted to do it again the next day. I wonder how this one's going to go. I just felt like my outfit needed a little more personality. Plus it was rainy this morning, so I was like, Let me throw a baseball cap on the way at the door.

Who is she? So cute. Your merch... By the way, we absolutely need to change our merch to be called Eternity Merch. It's a beautiful name. And we let people know off the bat, our merch will take an eternity to come. It's a beautiful name. I know. We can have a logo with the Eternity symbol. Yeah, infinity symbol. Isn't that nice?

That's really beautiful. Eternitymerch. Com. Where's your shirt from?

Eternity. Eternity Apparel.

Eternity and maternity.

Oh, is that the maternity for Eternity?

That'll be a capsule collection by eternity.

Oh, well, that's my line, specifically. Yeah. The possibilities are endless when you embrace the eternity.

Well, the possibilities are eternal.

That's also true.

Here at eternity.

Thank you all for tuning Yeah.

Thank you all for tuniting. How are you Tudeding today?

I'm doing amazing because I didn't stay up late watching Tell Me Lies, but you did. I didn't know we were committed to doing a recap.

You were at my house yesterday. Before you left, I was like, What's on tonight? And you were like, Tell Tell Me Lies, two episodes. I killed myself to watch one and a quarter episodes of Tell Me Lies. And I was so mad, but I had to go to sleep. And I was like, Well, she's going to spoil it for me on the show tomorrow because she watched, too. Turns out she watched none. Yeah.

I was just taking it easy last night. We had dinner together. I mozeed on home. What did I do? Oh, I facetim with my Mahha Tinnam's sister because she opened some boxes for me while I was back in New York. So, yeah, it just took it easy. Very self-care.

I'm happy for you. So that's why I love it for you. No, I have a going down.

How long do you think Tommy Lies goes on for?

Oh, how many seasons?

Is it the four years of college?

Well, no, because Steven's going to graduate. So what?

Oh, he's older?

Yeah, he's a senior. Thank God. Get rid of him. But they're also eight years in the future with the wedding, so they can do a lot with it. And I imagine it's like, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. We have a hit show on our hands, why would we end it? But I do think that at some point, they should end it with dignity. Right. Maybe at season four. So if this is three, maybe we have one more season. I just made that up. But I don't think it's a show that can go on forever without it getting stupid with all the different twists and turns that eventually lead us to this wedding. Yeah.

It's also really crazy that the two of them are still dating, IRL. Yeah. It's amazing, but it's so crazy. And it's definitely not a PR relationship. It's just extremely convenient for the network.

But I also imagine, and this happens all the time, when you're on these sets of these shows that are hot and heavy, you can't help but fall in love. Art imitates life, and life imitates art.

It's beautiful. That's the message for the first episode of Coji's Corner.

Oh, really? What about your art is imitating your life and vice versa? Well, our art is our life.

When you live your art, you don't need to answer questions like that.

When you live your truth in an authentic- And in a cojourner truth way. And the authenticity is internal. That's beautiful.

It sounds like- The authenticity is eternal.

It sounds like you listened to Hunter Hayes in the car on the way here.

I didn't.

But you were just singing that.

I made a TikTok to Hunter Hayes this morning.

Oh, is he going viral?

No, I wish. If the world was a good place, Hunter Hayes would be going viral. He's such a pea job.

The world is disgusting.

No, I don't want good, and I don't want good enough. I want, can't sleep, can't breathe without your love. From porch and one more kiss. It doesn't make sense to anybody else who cares if you're all I think about. I've searched the world and I know now it ain't right if you ain't lost your mind. I don't want easy, I want crazy. You with me, baby. Let's be crazy. Yeah, he takes it up a notch there.

He has a really crazy register.

What are you doing? I heard that song on TikTok this morning. Someone was like, Give me Hunter Hayes 2014 back. And it was shocking to me how I literally haven't heard that song in maybe 10 years, and I knew every single word.

It goes so hard. It has no business going so hard.

Don't be near me or my shoulders when that song comes on. No, I'm so much good.

I'll listen to it in the car on the way home. Yeah.

Hunter Hayes actually slays in a lot of ways.

No, he has a beautiful voice, and he makes amazing music, and he has new music, and it's still amazing.

He wrote a song called Dear God. Do you know that one? Yeah. Cry.

Yeah.

Cry. Tears.

I want to ask you something about something that's happening on the internet. Oh, sure. No, not like anything personal.

I want to ask you something. What do you think about men and women's sports?

What do you think about it?

I think that I really value my career, as always. And that's just what I want to lead with always. I'm literally the Jimmy Fallon of the podcasting industry. What you need me to say, I will say it. I don't stand for anything.

Okay. We love that for you. No, I was going to ask you about this trend that I'm seeing on the internet, and I want to know where it hails from. 2016? 2016.

I have no fucking idea. I saw Tinks posting a collage of her- I saw Danielle Carollan. Okay, so I thought Tinks was just doing something on her own. I'm like, Oh, that's a cute thing. Apparently, it's a part of a big trend. And I saw my sister do it, posting ugly pictures of me from 2016. When they met me, I need to participate in all trends. And I did. Check my Instagram. I posted a really cute video. Did you say you're in it?

No. Do you post it to feed or stories? I haven't had a chance to be on my phone this morning. Feed.

I posted to feed. You didn't say?

No, I haven't had a chance to be on my phone. Oh my gosh. There you are. First one, Butterfly's Love. I heard it's 2016.

Yeah, I'm getting involved.

Okay, but where did you hear that and why?

Oh my God, that can't be so literal. I don't know.

It's a trend. Oh, there's me. Okay. If you listen to the- I I want to enjoy watching it later.

Unfortunately for me, 2016 was the ugliest I have ever been. And if I have anything to do with it, the ugliest I will ever be. So I was very limited in my pool of content because, like I said, I was moleing and fat and ugly and just like, oh, my God, girl, try. And I was obsessed with eyeliner. When we did the breath and the first year of the toes, I wore every day the thickest, most uneven, poorly applied black eyeliner and with a wing, a poorly constructed one. Nobody said anything to me. And of course, if you did, I would have just thought you were a hater who was jealous of me and my beauty. But it's insane that I left the house that day. And that's how I know, actually, that Ben really loves me. He was with me during that time, and he loved me so much then. It's insane how dumb and blind he is.

That's really funny. I do remember the winged eyeliner.

And what did you think about it at the time?

Were you talking about it behind my back? I didn't think about I thought my sister was saying per usual.

You and Ben, two blind idiots. That's really sweet.

Maybe I'll go look at like, 2016. That was a good year. That was a fun year, and it was fun to see Snitches carousel. For once, I'm in everything. Yeah, right. These days, no- No, she's traveling.

No campers to be found.

No, no campers. But we used to hang out so much, all of us. We still do. I mean, look at us. But we used to hang out so much. We used to party so much. There was so much good stuff.

We used to party so much.

And party so hard. When I was watching Tell Me Lies last night, I was getting a pit because this isn't a spoiler or anything, but they do Molly. And then the next day, they're coming down in anxiety and not... Just that whole phase of drinking anxiety. Oh my God. I was literally having anxiety just watching it.

Whenever I watch people on TV do drugs, even if it goes well, it's not a bad drug story, I get the worst pit in my stomach because I'm either waiting for something to I don't know. Drugs give me the worst anxiety always. So I feel that.

Yeah. It was like, that's what I like about this show. It really transports you. I just have anxiety the whole time I'm watching it. And they also really capture that time, the era. So It's so great and immersive, I would say. But oh, my God, I don't miss those. It was fun while it last in.

But we're looking at it through rose-colored glasses. Nostgia is a mind's trick. If I'd been there, I hate it.

Yeah, but all the partying.

Yeah.

I'm good without. Really? Why don't you tell me lies?

No, I know. Well, that type of partying. I've had many party eras, and I would think my more sophisticated party era was one of my favorites.

What's your more sophisticated party era?

Not like Club rat, dirty eyeliner vibes. I don't know. I just feel like I had a sophisticated era where I was going to better parties with better people. You know what I mean?

That were more sophisticated parties.

Yeah, and lots of wealthy people. That was fun.

But what about the drinking? Lots of drinking?

Yeah, of course.

Yeah.

Yeah. So you're wearing a hat?

So I'm wearing a hat.

And did Zack bring you that hat and said he thinks you should wear this hat to the party tonight? Yeah.

It's an option for a hat I could wear to the party tonight. I have others, so we'll see. I have some other options for maternity merch.

That's amazing. I love their stuff.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Are you? Why?

You're just being silly.

Is that what we do for a living? Yeah. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm great. Do you want to get deep? Open up.

Let's think. I don't really have anything new to share. Just like, plugging along.

You don't want to tell everyone that big thing you're going through?

Oh my God. You're so crazy. No, I mean, I am going through a big thing. I just had a baby. Yeah, which is huge thing. Major. So, yeah, just doing that.

Yeah. And how's that?

It's good. It's great.

Yeah, it is.

How about you?

I spent the whole day with you yesterday.

We did spend the whole day together. Yeah.

What it was was that I was in the car, and in order to get to my next destination, I had to make a U-turn on this big ass Florida Street. And I was changing lanes and actually was within inches from my life. And I decided that the U-turn was not for me. And then the street I saw next, I do know that that street led to your house because I see it all the time when I drive to your house and I said, Everyone, buckle up. We're going to Jackie's. That's how I ended up at your house.

That's how you ended up at my house.

Yeah. Changing lanes is such drama.

Changing lanes is not for me. You know I plan my turns, two turns in advance, so I never wind up in the wrong lane. And as I become a more seasoned driver with every day, sometimes I do see the opportunity to change a lane. Correct.

Just to get to your destination faster, just be a little bit more comfortable in the lane.

Yeah. Not with someone in front of me and behind me. The one next to me is wide open. Is wide open, of course. And then I'm just like, Why aren't you guys going into it?

What's wrong with this lane?

I am constantly gaming. I don't know if everybody thinks about lane changes the whole time.

I was really taught to drive by Ben Soffer, who is obsessed with changing lanes. Like, Pac-Man.

Yeah, it goes between every car just to keep going ahead. Froger. And the funniest is when you see someone change lanes from behind you because they're trying to get there faster. Then you both end up with the red light together and it's like, what did that get you?

You almost killed your whole family for what?

For what? We're still sitting at the same light.

So both yesterday and actually on my way again this morning, I had a near fatal lane change. To me, if I ever get in a car crash, it will be from changing lanes. Yeah.

Do you have a good camera on your car? When you have your signal on to change lanes, it shows you?

No, Tesla has that. Mine has like, no, I have my rear view mirror, and then on the mirror, there's a little orange triangle. So it's like, don't go. But I do feel like the triangle is a little sensitive. Like, Bitch, I could fit. So a lot of times I will effectively change lanes, even though the the triangle was flashing. But then sometimes the triangle, I was like, Oh, yeah, you were onto something there, triangle. My bad, my bad. And so this morning, this guy was like, I literally almost killed him. He was so mad at me. It's very important when driving, to not always be on the offensive, to know when you're wrong. I was wrong and I was It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. I was making friends on the road as well and just taking accountability, which is really important. It's so good to take accountability.

On the road. When you're driving. I take a lot of accountability. I've been digging up my car.

Just dinging it Just dinging it up.

We have to park a lot. We do. Commuting requires a lot of parking. Last week, I didn't have to meet you guys because it was a Friday episode, but after I parked on the street and paid the meter, I forgot that where I parked, there was a curb in front of me. So when I left- You just started driving straight.

And did you mark up your vehicle?

I didn't see anything, but I saw a lady on the sidewalk. And she looked at me, and I was like... The whole car You know what you realize when you drive a lot?

When you drive a lot and start doing it up, you realize your car can take a lot. Something that you think would leave a mark. But you have a white car. My car's black.

Next car, I'm getting black.

Yeah, what goes on in my vehicle is- That's a really good point. Is genuinely none of my business.

And yesterday, I parked in a regular parking spot, but I guess I went too close to the... What's it called? At the front of the parking spot, the concrete slab?

The curb? No, no, no. Oh, like the- The parking- The bumper. The line. No, no.

What is that thing called? The line that you pull up to, that is like a concrete block. I parked, I guess, on top of it. So when I pulled out, there was another There was another jump. The car was jumping.

You were jumping and thumping and bumping and wiling out.

Yeah. So lessons learned. Taking accountability for that might be.

Yeah. It's just like, this is again, another thing For me, in my personal journey, New York has Florida beat. It's seriously the cab driver's problem if I'm in a vehicle and what happens next. I have actually been in motor vehicle collisions in a taxi or an Uber.

It's not your problem.

I literally get out. I'm sorry that that happens, but I have places to be. Same. I've actually been in a taxi that's been pulled over. I'm not responsible. In New York City, you can just get out. I often do. I always have. I've been rear-ended. I've been pulled over, and I'm like, You're on your own. I said, We all got to run our own race. And, Sir, I wish you the best, but I have a podcast to record.

I guess in the moment it feels weird to leave because it's like, What if he needs help? What if I need to give a statement? But in thinking about these things, it's like, Why would you stick around? You don't know this person. You don't leave. Why are you hanging out in a random car?

Yeah. And it's like, I am an empath, of course, but I'm a realist first. And I know if I stay here and support this man in his journey, I will be late for work.

1,000 %. And is the meter still running?

Okay, so let me think. In the times that I have, when I got re-run in the Uber, Uber's easy. I just said, End the trip, and I paid, whatever. But in the yellow cab when he got pulled over, I think I paid. Yeah, of course. He's about to get a big fat ticket. It's the least I can do.

But he has to end the meter.

Which he was able to do.

Meter equal to ended. Yeah.

I think also if you're a New York City traffic cop, you know part of pulling over a cab is the paperwork comes first.

Yeah. Speaking of, I meant to ask the gang about where I parked. I just want to make sure they could said, all others will be towed. Oh, I know.

Wait.

But I do think... No, it's not- Did you park there? No. I parked back there, and there's a couple of spots that are safe for a particular tenant. I one time parked there, and I got a nasty sticker on my car. But then there's others that are like, But it's part of the Plaza. And I said, But I'm in the Plaza. I'm a customer of the Plaza.

I'm so glad you brought that up because if you guys saw me texting on my phone right here before, I am parked in- In the other tenant? Yeah, and I just got a text about it. That's why I just asked her to go out and maybe move my car.

Oh, I was wondering what the drama was.

If you saw me on my phone, there's a vehicle drama, vehicular drama.

I experienced that in June. I parked in the other tenant, and they take their parking really seriously.

Now that we're doing a residency at this studio, how do we go about getting- Getting a sign that says- Saved for the most famous podcasters on the planet.

And that would apply to anyone who uses this studio.

No, it wouldn't.

But we get it at this hour.

Correct. Just someone to talk to the city council about, at the next meeting. Okay. I know you'd like to be an informed community member.

I am. Yeah. Am I?

Something I'm going to think about.

Well, let's get into the story, shall we? As long as your car is not getting towed.

Yeah, well, actually, what's great is that Ben was just wrapping off a T-shirt for me.

Right.

And so he's working on that. Can you handle the car thing? Are we good? Do we have to move the car? We have to move the car. Okay. I just feel like that person who gets that special vehicle, while I understand that they're an important person.

The person who gets the tenant who gets- The special spot. Are they an important person? I don't feel like they are.

Well, I know It's just that they're a business owner in this complex. I just feel like they could have fucked off and for once, tried to join the rest of us in struggling to find a parking spot.

It's for their customers, and I just feel like they don't have enough to justify the two spots.

No, it's for them. It's for the business owner. Confirmed. Business owner?

Yeah. What's the business owner? The owner of that... Oh, I thought it was for their customers. No, no.

I'm like, well, it's- I'll buy a watch.

It's always open. So what does that say?

Now, we do have stories to get into, even though I don't feel... I feel like it's one of those days where the stories are just an inconvenient truth.

I agree. And who knows where they'll lead. So as always, we will do the stories. Of course. But if we don't harp on them, there's not- Don't be upset. There's not a lot to harp on.

I just feel like it's going to be one of those days where I have no choice but to make every story about myself, which is different from other days, of course. Yeah.

We'll see where we can go with it.

You're just looking so... You know?

No. Tell me more.

Like your little hands, Like, your nails look so long and nice. I'm jealous. And you've got jewels, and you're just looking cute.

You know, like when... Thank you for noticing. I'm trying to enhance other areas. Like, give it that. Of course, of course, of course.

No, when you're not... I'm in transition. When you're not loving... When you're not living in your dream body, other things do need to just be amped up. I always wear more makeup when I'm feeling insecure about my weight. I always do my hair better than ever. I wear more jewelry. I'm on top of my nails. I'm always waxing my eyebrows as if it's going to take 10 pounds off. I do weigh myself after because the weight of the hair, of course.

And it's very heavy. Yeah, of course. Heavy as the head. So thank you for noticing the little details.

It's been a pleasure and an honor.

Trying to be more detailed.

You are a detailed person, I would say.

I would say, but you can't get lost in the details, is what I would also say. Focus on big picture.

Shop Eternity.

Shop Eternitymerch. Com.

Yeah, it's actually shoptoesmerch. Com, and it will take an eternity, but it's the best things you ever wore, for real. Seriously, things you'll give to your grandchildren.

This hat is from three years ago. It looks brand new.

It's from a year ago, but yeah.

I'm like you now. Everything was three years ago.

Isn't it amazing to live without that time space continuum?

Everything was 2-3 years ago.

Two to three weeks or 2-3 years. Or 2-3 months. Yeah, not sure.

Without further ado, here are the fast five stories that you need to know in no particular order. In no particular order.

I don't know. It feels like the order is a little particular since you're things around. You didn't choose that crazy headline, did you?

I don't know what I chose.

Another one that you showed me before the show. No. Can you read it to everyone? Oh, my gosh, yes. We can do it as a story. Jackie was strolling the Daily Mail, and she was like, This headline just kept getting crazier.

This is a worst nightmare headline. Are you ready for it?

And just when you think the headline is over and it couldn't possibly get worse, it does.

Harrowing moment, 550 pound internet star is lifted into police van by six in-caps cops because she was too big to fit in SUV during arrest.

Why are you laughing?

Before she vanished.

You are before she vanished. What? I just want to say laughing at a time like this, you are never beating the fat phobic allegations.

No, but the story gets crazier and crazier.

Was she found?

I don't know because it's a Daily Mail exclusive and I don't subscribe, so we'll never know what happened.

Not them putting important news behind a paywall.

Yeah, and they just keep bringing up her weight. It's just a nightmare scenario.

I know. And that always was something that gave me peace as an overweight person was that I was definitely harder to kidnap. And now that I'm on Zetbound, I'm constantly worried about my safety.

I don't even understand. I don't understand the headline.

Well, then it's not a story.

Why was she in police custody?

She is a modern day What's Eat, Gilbert Grape. Not enough people talk about that movie. One of Johnny Depp's earliest works, him and Leonardo DiCaprio are both in it. They're both 16, and They play this really poor family who live in the middle of nowhere, and their mother is morbidly obese. She can't leave her bed. And Leonardo DiCaprio is autistic, right, in the film? And Johnny Depp is just trying to keep this family together, trying to go to school, trying to fall in love, trying to do this. And eventually, spoiler alert, the mother passes away in her sleep, and they don't want to call an ambulance because they wouldn't be able to get her out of the house. They'd have to forklift her out. It would be too much shame for the family. So they end up burning the house down with her in it. We were watching that movie. I saw that movie.

I was like, 11. I know, but that was the movie of that year. Imagine if they came out now.

And by the way, that movie was like, whatever What's the opposite of Woke? That movie was insane. He wouldn't bring girls home because he was so embarrassed of his mom. It was really...

I remember- What was the point of the movie? What was eating Gilbert?

Yeah, I don't know.

Well, let's get I went into the actual stories, not the not story.

If you want to be upset, you should watch that movie.

Our first story. I actually would like to watch that movie now as an adult, see what it was about.

Yeah, what all the fuss was about.

Because we just remember the very dark parts. No, and memorable It starts.

And did anybody else see that movie or just us when we were 11?

No, I think that that was the Oscar movie of the year, the same way Slumdog Millionaire was the movie. That was the movie.

The fact that when there were those jokes that the Oscars, Leo had never had an Oscar, and he had That movie was his Oscar movie. He was the most profound performance.

But you know the Oscar is about a body of work, and that was his first movie.

Who cares?

I'm just telling you.

That kid from adolescence just won, and that was his first work.

Yeah, they just make shit up. Yeah, okay.

We have all of these photos, like physical photos from growing up, videos on videotapes, and we don't have a VCR player anymore, so how do we watch those things? We send it to Legacy Box. So they send you an empty box. You send all of these archival things that you have, whether it's tapes, photos, and they will digitize everything all in one place so that you have it forever and you can share it with anybody else who you want to share it with, and everything is preserved. Legacy Box began when the founders realized that most people couldn't even set the time on their VCRs, let alone figure out how to rescue their families home movies. They bootstrap Legacy Box from nothing and built the world's largest, most trusted digitizing company so that families wouldn't lose the moments that made them who they are.

That is so us.

First up, let's get into the story. Is Jessica Simpson, announced as a collaboration with Chicken of the Sea, 22 years after the iconic reality TV moment.

Have they not done this already? It feels redundant.

It does feel redundant. It obviously feels late. Why now? I feel like there were a couple of times they could have done it, obviously right after it happened, but also after her memoir, there were just a lot of big Jessica moments.

And that's to be so dumb, but I don't eat tuna. Chicken of the Sea is a brand of tuna? Yes. Yes. And when she was on her newlyweds show, she was like, Well, is it chicken or tuna? Because it is... By the way, I know everyone's like, She's so dumb, dumb, blonde. It's a bad name. That's like having a brand of chips. It's like, Cookies of Earth. Well, it's a chip.

Yeah. I understand the confusion But it is tuna. And if you're eating it, I think you would know it's tuna.

Okay, but also, just devil's advocate here, what makes tuna the chicken of the sea?

It just it being the most ubiquitous animal minimal eaten.

I didn't even know that they were still around as a brand.

That's quite a feat. I think your husband uses it.

Absolutely not. I literally know he does that wild- Yeah. Wild Earth salmon.

No, but when he does tuna.

Oh, sorry. Wild Earth Albacore. You know that one? Albacore. And if he has to, he'll do Sarkis. He does not mess around with chicken, I have to say.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He's very specific.

He loves canned tuna. I've actually recently bought canned tuna because he sometimes makes tuna at my house.

Well, he doesn't love canned tuna. He likes to make his own tuna in which you need tuna in a can.

Yeah. So now I have that. Yeah. And the other one.

Starkis is available everywhere.

But then there's- Wild Planet.

It's called. Sorry.

Wild Planet. If I'm at the fancy store- Whole Foods. Yeah, I get that one.

It's yellow.

She made this surprise announcement on Tuesday via her Instagram page. She wrote to her followers, new collab coming soon. I'll give you a hint. It's Mermeade approved. She included several photos of her at a recent Chicken of the Sea event where she was wearing a sexy black dress.

She was wearing a black dress that I I need. I feel like it's very my physique. She looks great. Yeah, she does. I love Jessica Simpson.

Yeah, me as well.

Important time to bring up. She is my birthday buddy, so I probably love her more than you.

Okay, I'll I'll back down.

What's your favorite Jessica Simpson song?

Maybe with you.

I recently relistened to a song of hers. It was on a playlist that I was listening to a lot. Oh, I know it. I don't even need to look it up. Oh, I think I'm in love. Boy, I think that I'm in love with you. And I've been doing silly things when it comes to you. Oh, yeah.

So, yeah, love this. Toasty Lions, maybe. I don't see how it ages, but you're a little late.

I don't feel like it's Toasty Lions, actually.

We haven't had a Toasty Lion's in a while. Really?

I feel like we recently added one. I remember we actually added two to the list, and we weren't sure if they- Let's see how they did. If they aged well.

This would be a good day to clean out the list.

It's such... By the way, hashtag clear the list.

Oh, Koji. I'm going to start with the one... I'm going to do the whole list. Toasty Lion's, by the way, are awards. In branding. The toast version of the Cannes Lion's Awards. It's for the best in branding, like best brand partnerships, collaborations, and ideas.

Things that just make sense, what we like to call smarketing, smart marketing.

So ones that are officially cemented on the list, Lindsay Hubbard for client felt again. Which is where you reseal wedding dresses. That she never used. Ryan Merriman, the actor from Smart House, doing an ad for a Samsung Smart House. So cute. Flip off doing ads on the toast.

Oh, yeah.

Alex Earle, Carl's Jr.

Oh, I feel like, yeah. Things that feel right, that.

Oh, that had the question mark next to it.

I haven't thought about it since then, but I do still think it counts.

No, it's good.

No, it's amazing. She's a Carl's Jr. Girl. That used to mean something.

Okay, I'm going to leave it with a question mark. We have to come back in like six months. Fine. What was the last one? Too soon to call. No, there's a bunch. Kristen Cavalari's E-Show podcast tour. I really did think that was brilliant. Did it ever come out? Yeah, I watched it. Get rid of it. You were on maternity leave. Get rid of it.

I was watching everything on maternity leave. Can I I believe. Get rid of it.

Wow. I hate actually delete. I would rather strike through.

Well, you should because- To note that it was once there. You're erasing history. I agree. Hold on. Strike through. Or just write delete.

I'll just write no. E podcast for delete. Astronomer Gwyneth Paltrow.

That's there. Oh, did we talk about the astronomer woman doing her tell all?

I think we did. Okay. I think we did. Taylor Franky Paul as the bachelorette.

Yeah. Even though that's not a marketing.

No, but it was like Hulu, ABC.

That would be like a feat in casting. I would put that also with Hairspray, which I do know we have a list of the things that are perfectly gas movies. I think Taylor Franky Paul would be on that list.

We also have to wait to see her season. True, true. And then, oh, The Girlfriend Amazon show, Exedee or Toaster.

It was good.

Toasty Lion. Toasty Lion. I feel like the list is lacking. Everyone needs to step it up.

No, I just feel like it's one of those lists that's been so hyped up. We can't even go back to it because we're only going to be disappointed.

Yeah. So yeah, I guess this wouldn't be a Toasty Lion.

What was it again?

Taking up a C.

Yeah, it's just low hanging fruit. This is like if I worked in marketing and this was my client and I was an unoriginal person, this would be the idea I had.

Yeah. Are you ready for our next story?

Because I feel like it would be cool and different if it was like nick Lachet, you know?

Or like those girls from the toast.

Oh, of course. And let me just say, I love chicken of the sea tuna every day.

After we talked about Sarkis and Wild Earth.

And that's probably what they wanted.

So that we could then say, We've had Sarkis, we've had Wild Earth.

What's the best tuna? Chicken of the Sea. Bring back jingles. Okay, why does nobody have a jingle?

We single-handedly are bringing back jingles.

Of course. But I just mean, if you want to have a lasting impact, you know who's holding the the jingle industry together? Liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty.

We write really great jingles here.

I don't know who else has a jingle.

I think a lot of people do.

Goldfish used to have a great one. Snack that smiles back, Goldfish. I love jingles. It's like how if I'm walking to the store I see it, I'll like seeing the jingle and then pick it up.

Yeah. Jingle all the way, huh?

Jingle all the motherfucking way.

Our next story, Kylie Kelsey is talking about Donna Kelsi being on traitors. Oh, what does she say? And how she with Held inside scoop on traitors from the family.

You know what's so funny? When I think of the Kelsies and who... I know that she's Taylor's sister-in-law, and I always... I forget that Donna and Kelsie know each... Kylie know each other.

Yeah, and they're both the female Kelsies. Yeah, Who have a Kelsie in their name, but they're actually not related, aside from their marriage.

Yeah, no, I forgot about them, too, together.

Yeah. Also, like any excuse to talk about traitors. Donna Kelsie was tight-lipped about her experience on Peacocks, the Traitors. Her daughter-in-law, Kylie, tells people. She said, She did not tell us much at all, which I respect. I respect. You've got to keep the mystery alive, she said.

I wonder- I mean, if I was done, I wouldn't be shouting from the rooftop what I did on that show because it wasn't good. Stop. I would be tight-lipped as well.

I wonder if she even told them that she was the traitor and the secret traitor. I wonder if she told them that much.

Yeah, I'm also really curious.

They obviously knew something when she left.

And came home two days later. You know what else I was thinking about? The contest that get sent home, when do they find out who the traitors were? When they watch? Or, yeah, you know what I mean?

Maybe they have some inside scoop. And also, they probably talk to people in the cast. And when they end the show, they probably talk. When they all go home, they probably talk to them.

Yeah, but most of the people who get eliminated won't know who the traitors are. I guess actually towards the end, you might start being able to figure it out, even if he gets sent home.

Right. But like, Portia went home. Say whoever goes home in the new episode, say it's Ron or whatever, he goes home and if he can message Portia, not that they're friends, and be like, Oh, by the way, Donna was the first trader.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Right, right, right. But I mean the remaining traitors.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah. Do you think Taylor's watching traitors?

I do because Travis is watching.

Yeah. Do you think Taylor watches reality TV? I don't know why. She does not strike me.

Didn't she say she watched Love Island? What did she say she watched? She was like, Love is Blind.

Love is Blind. You're right. She did say that. Also at Coachella, remember she met Theresa Giudas? When you watched a video and when Theresa told a story on her podcast, it didn't sound like there was any recognition.

Yeah. It just, Theresa asked for a photo.

If you watch any Bravo, you know Theresa, even if you don't watch Jersey Housewives.

Yeah. I feel like she probably knew who she was. I'm sure she watches some Bravo over the years, but she definitely watched Traitors, with Travis to support Donna. Who knows if she'll continue watching if it was off of the hook. I feel like no.

Yeah. It wasn't off to an amazing start.

Yeah. And they did Donna- And they bullied her mother-in-law.

Even though they were right because she was the I don't think Travis is going to keep watching. Yeah, I don't know. I feel like he's more likely to keep watching than her, just in terms of things that I think she would like and things that he would like.

But I feel like the cast wouldn't be for him.

I don't think- They're no athletes. I'm surprised they don't have any former athletes on there.

I'm sure they do other seasons, but yeah, I just feel like he wouldn't be that interested in the group that they have.

Yeah, especially after they disrespected his mother.

But Donna did say that she and Jason watch every season of Traitors. He's just a Traitors fan. He's a fan of- Jason? I think so. Oh, interesting. That's the vibe I got, that they watch the show together because they love it.

Now, we didn't talk about how actually, when Donna said she was a traitor, she slayed with her delivery. You got yourself a traitor. You got yourself a traitor. Honestly, that was the most energy she gave the entire time. And first of all, I thought for sure she wasn't. So I was going to be shocked no matter what. But I do really respect how she delivered that line. It's such an exciting thing to say. You have one chance to say it. And I don't know if she practiced in the mirror or whatever, but it was really good. Wow, she's really good.

What I also liked about her is that she never lied straight up. She never said, I'm not a traitor. And that was her nail in the coffin. But anyone can lie. But it's how you can deflect Yeah.

That's why I do believe I would be a great traitor because I- You'll just lie. I have no moral high ground. I have no issue lying, and I'm quite amazing at it, although I do need to work on my whole looking up thing.

Yeah. So it's like, may the best liar win, also the best actor or actress. Correct.

And you guys know, I was meant to be an actress.

Yes, we do know.

Let's improv, ready?

We're at a coffee shop. Oh, my God. You know this is my new favorite game. Okay, fine. I'm the barista.

You're the barista, or barista.

What are you like?

A customer. Okay. Hi.

Hi. Oh, my God. You're a fucking bitch. I mean...

Hi.

Hi. What can I get for you today?

Sorry. Before we get started, What are your pronouns? Bac off. And scene. That was really good. Oscar. Yeah.

You should be the barista.

Okay, why?

Like asking me my pronouns.

Wait, I didn't get it.

It's very barista.

Yeah, that's why I asked. Baristas are always like, have funky pronouns.

Oh, you're just being like a respectful customer.

A respectful patron. Yes.

Got it. Got it. Wow. You're very, you're very kind.

Well, in my acting life, see, wasn't that good acting?

Very good. You should go out for some shit. You can do that.

I'm just scarred from the one time I auditioned for Lawn Outer SVU, and I didn't get it. Now, again, I was too beautiful for the role. We know this. I've told the story a million times, but it, rejection hurts. Actually, in terms of all the jobs that I would be fit for, I think I would sooner set up chairs at the beach because you guys know that's actually my nightmare job being a hotel beach attendant, having to sweat in the sun, put up chairs and umbrellas. But I might be better suited for that than I be for acting because I, like, rejection in me, we are not friends.

You have to... Yeah. There's a lot of things that you're not cut out for.

Yeah. My mental health, I would be on alert if I was a concerned family member of mine because I really would not be able to take it.

Yeah.

Okay.

So no. No, no. Chris Nath is taking a dig at his Sex in the City star, Sarah Jessica Parker, in an expletive filled Instagram post.

I'm giggling. I'm just thinking, I don't know if you saw, I don't know if you watched every single maternity leave episode, but Joey Knauss has said the funniest thing. I was like, we were talking about guns, and I'm like, do you have a gun or would you have a gun? He's like, I couldn't. Oh, yeah. I'm like, why? He's like, because if I ever looked past... Sorry. If I ever walked past the mirror and looked at him, I would kill myself. He is so funny. Like, seriously, sometimes I'm just giggling.

He's a threat to himself. Yeah, right. Understand. Know thyself.

A hundred %. And he said, because his joke is that, his biggest enemy in this life is his inner saboteur. Okay, sorry. Oh, yeah, Chris Noth. I did see this.

So he posted a snap of himself working out in the gym, and he wrote, Fuck New Year's, let's go. And then someone commented saying, You mean Fuck SJP and her award, right? L-o-l. She won an honorary award at the Golden Globes. Did she give a speech and everything?

Yeah, the Carol Burnet Award. Matheo Broderick was there. A bunch of people made videos. It was a big bat mitzvah type of affair.

So the person said, You mean Fuck her and her award, right? And he responded saying, Right.

I feel like that's That's actually not what he meant because the picture was like, him in the gym. It was very like, he knew me. So I actually, I don't think there was subtext within this particular caption, although I do believe he hates Sarah Jessica Parker. I would love to see him and Kim Cattrall get together because they're literally the I hate Sarah Club. Now, if I recall, there were allegations against Chris Nath after the first season of And Just Like That. And he got fired. Everybody said, You're guilty. We're out. He maintained his innocence. I'm sure at the time, it was really challenging, although now in hindsight, getting fired from that show was probably one of the better things to happen to him. I don't know enough about the allegations to remember if he was really guilty or really not. I just feel like as a woman in Hollywood, she wouldn't be caught dead, even defense this person who she's known for 20 years.

Right. And recast in the next show, even though she had done working with him and could have gotten away scoff-free, put him in the next show if he was this bad guy. But again, I don't know anything about the allegations, and literally, I'm not stepping in this because it's not my problem. Seriously, not my plate. I've been watching just like that. These people are not my issue.

There was just like, not my plate. There's stories today. Not my plate. I want to talk about the picture. I think he looked very handsome.

In this picture with the dumbbells? With the gains. Making gains. Yeah, he is handsome, and he looks handsome.

Did he ever do anything acting-wise outside of this show?

I feel like he's...

What?

I just...

I actually... I know what.

Tom Selleck. I feel like he's in one of those shows, a CSI.

I know. Law and order.

No, no.

Like- With Julianna Margalese. What's that show? The Good Lawyer or something?

What? The Good Wife.

Is that Julianna Margalese?

I'll go to his IMDb.

I feel like it is. Yeah.

The Good Wife.

Yeah.

Is he still on The Good Wife?

Are you guys shocked that I know Julianna Margalese? I feel like I'm going to get a credit for that.

I know you want to keep saying her name.

Zionist Queen. Julianna Margales.

Beautiful. You should watch The Good Wife.

You know what I watched last night? I restarted The Pit. Not restarted, sorry. New season.

Great.

The show was so good. Because it was just nominated and everyone was talking about it, I didn't know the lore behind it.

The Good Wife ended in 2016.

The actor from The Pit, Noah Weil, also Jewish king.

Looks like Adam Sandler.

If Adam Sandler were good-looking, yeah. Yeah.

No, I never saw him before. Then I was seeing him at the award show. I said, Oh, Adam Sandler wore a suit, and it was not him. Okay.

Maybe you were looking Adam Sandler. They don't look alike. Adam Sandler was there. Okay, wait. Noah Weil, W-Y-L-E.

I'm on my way. Adam Sandler, are you crazy? Let me see.

What are you doing? Dr. Ravi. Hold on.

In some... Okay, in some pictures. From far away.

If I close my eyes, yeah, it looks just like him. Well, I started season 2 of The Pit, which is one of my favorite shows, and I didn't know.

So he was like, Okay, look at this still of The Pit. That looks like Adam Sandler. Can you agree? It's tiny.

Sure. Like, whatever. I just... Sure. He came out of nowhere, but I didn't realize he was an actor on ER with George Clooney. And then he didn't really take off in the way.

He loves playing a doctor, though. He's got the chops.

My phone is calling me saying... Someone's calling you. Maybe Claudio Sherry. Claudio Ostry.

Okay, pick up. It's you. Hello. Claudio Sherry.

Hi.

Is it Claudio? It sounds like a man. It sounds like Claudio Sherry.

Yes. Can I just call you back in a couple of minutes? Yeah, that's fine.

What a crazy show today.

Yeah, today's show is definitely manic.

A little wacky. Was Claudio okay?

I don't know why it said Claudia. One time, I must have been at something and made a pledge to... And I never fulfilled the pledge, and they always call. I'm like, I'm happy to pay, but please don't call me. I'm always like, email me, email. And they never follow up via email. They just call back. I will fulfill my pledge at some point in my lifetime.

They have to make it much simpler. How would you fulfill your pledge over the phone, even? Credit card?

Yeah, correct.

Do not call me. Do not come. I won't be picking up the phone.

Don't call me.

I agree.

Claudio Sherry.

You know there's a feature on your phone that numbers that you don't have saved, they won't ring for you.

They screen it.

Yeah, I don't like that either. I was missing really important phone. Of course. I unfortunately had to turn that off.

I didn't even know you could turn it off. I actually need to. It's annoying as fuck. The screening. Anytime they've screen to call, it's something I desperately need.

Now, they only screen spam, which calls me every day.

Okay, I need to figure that out.

Our next story, Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence identifies as a stay-at-home mom, she said. Jennifer Lawrence went on Smartless. I'm sure she said a lot of stuff. Oh, my God. Why? That's perfect for her.

Well, first of all, Jennifer Lawrence went on a podcast and nobody knows about it because they don't have video. So that's just annoying to watch somebody beautiful. We have to listen. No, thanks. And two, I'm just so sick of those guys, honestly.

I'm fine with them. I'm not. I'm sick of them for the bit, but for real, I think they're fine.

Okay, whatever.

Anyway, she said, I identify as a stay at home mom. She said that she's obviously working and recently had to juggle a hectic schedule. I normally have a busy three months while I'm filming, but even in that sense, it's calm because there's nothing else to do. I just go to work. I do that. I come home, I sleep, and then I do it again. And then two weeks while you promote. It is hectic.

You know what? I could see people rolling their eyes at this, but I do... She is not a celebrity who actively works a lot. She's not going to a lot of events and doing a lot of brand deals and filming eight TV shows and three movies. She does maybe a movie a year, and she's in that one to your commercial. Yeah, those couple of weeks where she's working, the kid's dad can chip in.

I'm sure she has an act. She does like two weeks of press, like she said. Again, busy two weeks. But yeah, I guess. So say it's four weeks out of the year that she's super busy, but still even is around. Available. And then the rest of the month is a stay at home mom. That's a nice way to think about it.

Yeah, I don't find this offensive as a mother.

No, I thought it was sweet.

Yeah.

Do you consider yourself a stay at home mom?

No, only because I really don't like to stay at home with the baby. Like, Oh my God, time moves so slow when you're just sitting around the house, even if you're doing the good engaging, like mat time and all that shit. I'm like, Let's just go somewhere. That's why I went to your house yesterday. I can't just sit around in the house with the kid. It's so slow and boring. Yeah. So I'm like, No, I don't consider myself a stay at home mom. I'm like a part-time working mom.

I don't know what the fuck I'm. Stay at home working mom.

I don't know what the fuck. But I'm not staying at home because we work here. So I don't know. She likes to go out. Yeah, and I have my studio in the city. I have to leave.

Try and change lanes.

Yeah, right. And try and kill people, myself included, while changing Are you ready for our fifth and final story? I am. Are you?

I would say choose your own adventure, but I made my choice. But Nikki Glazer is revealing the Sydney Sweeney joke that she cut from the 2026 Golden Globes. I actually love this when people- I like when she tells us what- share jokes that they cut. She shared a bunch of jokes that she cut with Howard Stern.

Yes, this has become like a tradition. After last year, she went on Howard Stern. After the Tom braided row, she went on Howard she shares. She does the segment where she reads the jokes that she was going to say.

Yeah. And then she explains why she cut them. And I guess Sydney wasn't at the award show, which is why she cut this one. But she said, People just aren't going to the theater to see things. If you don't believe me, there was a movie this year where Sydney Sweeney played a lesbian who just bounced around in tiny shorts for two hours, and it made $14.

What movie?

Christie, the boxer.

Oh, yeah, that's funny. That's a good joke. And I think that it's unoffensive-ish. If Sydney was there, it would have been fine.

It's a little demeaning.

Well, it depends what type of comic you want to be, right? A man could never say it, first of all. Oh my God.

Jail.

Jail. Like, literally prison. Lock him up. I don't know. I don't know how Sydney feels about Sydney's self. Do you know what I mean? She is this... Modern day, like Marilyn Monroe, like sex figure, sexy woman. And that's been an intentional choice on her part.

And she leans into it. But I I also feel like this movie, that actually might have hurt her feelings more because this movie was her serious one.

Passion Project. She funded it herself. It did make three... 14 is generous. It made $3.

And it wasn't about her jumping around in tiny shorts. It was about the story.

Anyone but you was a movie about her body. It was very male gaze.

Yeah. And this was serious and, hey, like eyes- Don't look at me. Yeah. I think it probably would have... I mean, yeah, it's a little...

It's a little It's a well-written joke, though.

You won't catch me saying anything negative about Seetha Nini Sweeni, especially not today. She met with two hostages in the last few days, Noah Aramani and Avi Natan Or. So she's my queen. A thousand %. So we're not making jokes at her expense. No.

Mark Ruffalo on the other hand.

Mark Ruffalo. It's getting worse.

He is really- It's getting really bad. So crazy.

And you know what's really... He's so crazy. And he's in every movie. Every year, he's at these awards because people keep putting him in movies. No matter how crazy he is, he just the nuttiest things about everything. And it's like, someone's going to cast him again tomorrow, run it back and do it again. We're going to have to see him at the next show and the next show and the next show.

And it's just so crazy because, and this is just regardless of my feelings about Mark Ruffalo, Hollywood is a very vain, shallow industry. In terms of men who are aging well, Mark Ruffalo is really not one of them. He actually, I'm sorry to be mean, looks terrible. If that was a woman, seriously, she would never work again. How Mark Ruffalo is more booked and busy than ever when he seriously never looked worse.

When he's I'm not really a raving lunatic, and I feel like most of the time, when someone's a raving lunatic, it's like, Okay, we're going to put you out to pasture. Right.

He must have great agents.

Yeah. Maybe he's a good actor.

I mean, just like heaven was so good. I will still watch that movie because I shouldn't suffer.

Yeah. Maybe he's just the best man for the job of the acting, which requires a raving lunatic.

Acting is really not that hard. There's no way. There's no way. Yeah. There is this children's book. I must have gotten it. I didn't buy it myself. It just made its way. It's called the Gruffalo. It's about this made up creature in the forest called the Gruffalo. Then, spoiler alert, the Gruffalo exists. It's like these wild beast, this ugly big... The Gruffalo. That person obviously listens to The Toast, whoever wrote the book.

Did you buy that book?

No, I said it made its way towards me in a gift or something. I did not buy it. I like it.

Okay. Yeah, it's cute. It has a nice message. Does it rhyme?

Yeah, of course. I don't mess around with books that don't rhyme.

Reminder, Cameron counselor.

Literally the only book worth having. I'm being dead fucking serious.

We were talking last night. You were at my house and you were like, What book should I get? I need new books? I think we're going to go to the bookstore, which is always really fun.

Yeah, because I just have a problem. Maybe I'm just a protective mother, but I was reading this book about a dog, and the dog is not listening to his mom. That's the whole point of the book. Why the fuck would I be reading that?

Don't give him any ideas.

I'm burning books.

Yeah, I'll give you a list. I find problems with everything. I'll tell you what's out of his lips.

Of course, Rainbow Fish is a Communist. I find issues in all books, and I'm trying not to be this nitpicky mother, but we need to go to Barnes & Noble.

Sometimes I feel like there's bad behavior throughout the book, and by the end, it does get better. But sometimes the kids don't want to read through till the end. They're just getting up in the middle of the book when this child behaves so poorly.

And he's being rewarded for it. No, I don't mess around like that.

The lesson doesn't come until the end, but it's too late by then. We're asleep. They didn't finish the book.

Of course.

Another issue. But you don't see that in Cambera and the counselor. She's a queen throughout. I think we can call it.

Did we do five stories? I just feel like the stories, like I said, were an inconvenient truth, but this was definitely one of our better episodes.

And we'll leave you with that.

Thank you so much for listening to the Toast.
