Good morning. It's the It's Jackson Claude and we're your host. It's your favorite show. The best five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly. It's the toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to the toast. Happy Monday. I hope everybody's having an amazing start to their week.

I'm having an amazing start cuz I'm sat here with my co-jourer about to hear her truth.

Okay. A truth in which I haven't heard because I didn't even see you this weekend.

No, I was so busy. I had so many revelatory just like a bunch of co-workers going from Friday to Monday without seeing each other.

I had so many revelations this weekend. It was that was kind of the theme. Revelations a revatory weekend.

Okay. Revelatory weekend. Okay. Where do I even begin? First of all, we hospitalize Beverly Hills is the best show ever made. I'm completely caught up on the season. I apologize for being late. I I got here on my own time, but I got here and that's what counts.

I am caught up as well because I saw like the girlies were watching and I was like, I enjoyed the first two episodes, so I'm back in and if Claudia's going to talk about it, I want to be caught up. So, that was a great experience.

That was a revelation. Another revelation. Nordstrom Rack is the greatest store um on the planet. I've never been to a Nordstrom Rack before. And like I said last week, I appreciate like me getting virtually no hate comments about the fact that I've been wearing the same six things in rotation. Um and I decided to, you know, change that this weekend. and you know cardboard cooji. I packed for Christmas so I packed like pretty like heavily two three weeks and I also always have like stuff laying around your house. So I had a good amount of clothing like to get me through but obviously my time here has been extended. I went to Nordstrom Rack.

I actually went initially because I just felt like they might have good kids clothes and again it's 30° here. I did not pack sweatpants. I packed shorts.

Um I packed bathing suits which we quite literally haven't worn. I went to Nordstrom Rack. I went in one girl and I came out another. It's the most amazing place. You know, we're obsessed with like TJ Maxx and Marshalls. And I didn't realize Nordstrom Rack was just like another one of those and a little bit different. And when you shop at TJ Maxx, Marshalls, it's amazing, but it's a little bit repetitive because it's just like, you know, same store, new name. Same with TJ Maxx, Marshall Homes.

There's only so much like Converse and Rachel Zo you can buy for your be. Correct.

Rachel Zo. Rachel Zo. So, I'll buy all the Rachel Zo. I see. Of course, to support her.

Yeah. Not that she needs it, but I just want to support her. North is the most amazing place, first of all, for clothing. Like I I literally cleared the racks for Rue. Then I was like, "Let me see what they got for women."

We're co-jourer. And I can't believe you have made no comments about my outfit today.

You look so wonderful. My entire outfit is Nordstrom. I'm actually going to stand up.

Do you know what's so crazy? I don't want to take away from your revelation. I want to add to it. You went to Nord Sherack on Sunday of this weekend and had a revelation. Weirdly enough, my husband and the boys went to Nordstromrack on Saturday randomly. We've never been in all the time that we lived here. And they came home with like a bounty of kids clothes and shoes and everything and they were so excited and they were like Nordstrom Rack is amazing. And I was like okay cool. And then the next day you were like Nordstrom Rack is amazing. Parallel experiences

and people are like well you've never been to a Nordstrom Rack and you call yourself cardboard cooji. There isn't rack in the city. It's in Union Square. I'm sorry. I'm just not going there. Like it's such a busy it's like a time square of downtown. So no I have never been

and I can't believe what I've been missing out on. First of all, like the beauty products I got.

Yeah. No, we have to go. And let me tell you, I was really there for Ruse. So, like I perused the women's section for all of 10 seconds and I found three amazing things. My shirt, French Connection, $34. My pants,

linen pants. I don't know what brand they are, but they're fabulous with an elastic waistband. $24. Like, rushed. They had Charlotte Tils Pillsbury. I got some makeup.

I had MAC. Like, it was amazing. So, revel revelation number two. Nordstrom Rack.

Nordstrom Rack. Oh, yeah. I went out. Mhm. Oh, yeah. Hey, you went out Saturday night?

I went out Saturday night. Yeah, that's right. I got invited to a party by Tyler Cameron. Do you guys know Tyler Cameron of the Bachelor fame? Um, it was so fun. So, yeah, I went out. He has this um charity event that I started in honor of his mom. And it was so nice. Like, it was like a pretty legit affair, like a a seated gala.

And what happened? What happened was that I lost my paddle. There was an auction and like they give you a number and it's like associated with your credit card. And I lost my paddle. Um, and then later in the evening, um, I had left already and I got a text being like, "Thanks for raising your paddle." So, I guess somebody picked up my paddle and like bid and like, "It's fine." Like, it's for charity

for sure, but you should get whatever they they bought. I know. I don't want to like ask because like it's for charity. Like,

you should write back like, "Sorry, it was a little buzzed. What I got?" What did I win?

There was like a bunch of really good prizes. We were bidding on like these um golf like like once in a lifetime golf experiences.

Oh my god. So, I do wonder what I won. And I'm not going to protest, of course. It's all for charity,

but just make sure you get it. Yeah, totally. And was it star-studded? It was kind of like landmine studded. Do you know what I mean?

For you mean in this line of work? Yeah. When I walked in and I saw like a lot of reality stars, I just had to like very quickly like re sort of center myself being like, what have I said about this person? Um, so there were I think a bunch of the ladies from members only.

Okay. You haven't said no cuz I don't know them enough. But I think I did say that they were like big time losers which

I feel like if you didn't watch the show No like I don't I just don't feel like it's that hurtful if you didn't actually watch it.

Jason Tardik, he's wearing Abberrombie was there. He was not wearing Abberrombie.

I don't think you've said anything negative cuz I I know that like I like him. Right.

Um Rachel Cale who I also like. I felt good about seeing. Yeah. Um no that's really that's really scary. That's why I don't leave the house.

I know. Like it kind of was horrible in the sense that like I just need to like start separating church and state, you know?

Yeah. No, it's really true. Like you can't live like that, but you also can't come into the show and like censor yourself if someone's bringing weenie out.

Speaking my truth. So you did it for Tyler Cameron. You put yourself in an uncomfortable situation. You did it for a good cause that maybe don't do it again anytime soon.

Yeah. Yeah. No, but it was great. It was really great. It was kind of like a very balanced weekend. Yeah. I went out. I watched, but like I watched so much TV this weekend. Like Ben and I were so um first of all, Ben is obsessed with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. He's like turning to me. I had put it on cuz I wanted to watch it and it was just like we're in this together, right? We have one we're in this Airbnb. Like there's a TV and like whatever I'm watching, we have to watch together.

You guys are bound. And I could tell he's like, "Oh, this is what we're watching." And I was just like, "I have to watch it for work. Like just get over it." Um I always say that like I have to watch it for work. And literally the second Ruby went down for his naps, he was like, "Are we watching?" He's obsessed. Of course, he's obsessed with B and he's going to do like a whole thing about it on the good guys because he's just like so at topical

just about the Real Housewives, but Bose is his favorite. Oh, okay. He thinks Kyle's really cool.

Okay. He thinks Sutton's a loser. Um, and he comes into it with like no context notion

or like history. So, he's just watching this season. So, those are his takes and he like seriously can't get over Amanda.

Oh, okay. Well, so let's recap at the end of the show. We'll recap everything that we watched up until this point. We have like a little bit of Real Housewives news, so we'll like group it all together.

Great. We watched the Grammys last night. I watch I would say like 80%. By 10:30 like I had to go.

Yeah. There was something that was my 13th reason for turning it off. I was very tolerant. I think I watched I passed 10:00. I can't remember what it was that I was like and now I'm done here. My my watch has ended.

Yeah. It was just late too. Like it was also just bad. So like somebody I didn't think it was bad.

There was only so much I could take. There were like some good moments like Bruno Mars performing not once but twice.

Yeah. That meant a lot to me. Yeah. I feel like it had that very classic, you know, award show stank with like, you know, insufferable people just like being so out of touch. But I feel like the performances like I actually really enjoyed the show.

Oh, I thought the performances Well, I want to go performance. I can't group them all together because like some were good and some were bad, but like overall it was just like I wasn't like enjoying myself. I feel like a lot of the times I watch the Grammys and I feel so old and I'm like not only do I not know any of these people, but I sound like an old KOD being like, you know, back in my day we listen to real music. And last night I felt like didn't have a ton of that. The new artist category, which we will get into, had a little bit of that sort of juna

of what? Of like this isn't music. I don't know these people. I feel old. And back in my day, you know, we use instruments.

Yeah. But for the most part, I actually really was enjoying myself. Oh, that's so that's positive to hear. That's so nice to hear.

Thank you /chart. You're welcome. First story, Grammys recap. Let's go through the show in chronological order. We'll talk about the performances, the awards, the host. The show opened with Ros and Bruno Mar singing my song of the year, Apata, which should have been everything to me, but it like didn't sound really good.

So, what's interesting and and I said to Ben, it's such a good song. It can't sound bad. Like,

yeah, they did an arrangement, but also things were louder than other things and it just like didn't it wasn't amazing, even though I would have loved for it to be.

I feel like they're at a place where they both have probably sang that song so many [ __ ] times and it gets old no matter how good a song is. So, yes, they did this like punk emo arrangement, which was not my favorite by any means, but I didn't I kind of felt like COVID, like I didn't know that was happening. I didn't even know Bruno Mars was scheduled to be at this affair cuz he just kind of gets nominated all the time. Um, and so the fact that like it opened with my boyfriend singing one of my favorite songs, like I was not going to be unhappy. And yes, it was different. And was it the best? No. But I enjoyed it.

Like I enjoyed it because I It's my boyfriend. I'm sitting there with Bruno. You know, my dog is literally named after Bruno Mars. That's how much my family loves Bruno Mars. And like now we're having a renaissance because like he's putting out an album and he's going to be back. He's going on tour. Like we're going and I was everything was like all lining up to be good, but then like it just didn't sound good. I think there were some like uh audio issues which we saw with Alex Warren which we'll we'll get into.

You know, I was able to look past the audio issues cuz like I was excited and like it was just starting. I'm like, "Oh, this is how we're starting. Okay." Yeah. And you know, whoever opens the award show, like it kind of sets the tone for what kind of show it's going to be. So I feel like with Bruno being there, like I liked the tone that it was setting.

Me too. Like I loved everything except for how it sounded. I know. And you know what? Like I'm not getting bogged down with how it sounded, you know?

No. And I'm just like glad that they gave us Apata and they knew that it was like big enough to do it first and the biggest. So great. Happy for them.

Trevor Noah hosted he again. Oh my god. And I didn't, first of all, we didn't cover it obviously. I don't know if it was like a big news story cuz usually when these big award shows have a host, like it becomes a thing. So either like nobody cared or they didn't announce it, but I didn't realize it's been 6 years and like it's really enough. It was enough after the first year. I'm personally not a Trevor Noah fan. Um, and I just like I wish he did something different this year, like tried being funny. I feel like that would have been really um like good.

I would have liked that. I don't know if my brain is just mush. I couldn't process like what he was saying in the room that he was saying with all these people around him. He's talking so fast. I had no idea what he was saying.

It was very manic. And that it was very manic. I felt like if I looked at my phone for one second, I was also, you know, trying to answer some emails. I had no idea what was going on. I would pick my head up and he's just like sitting there with Bad Bunny like

Yeah. And I'm like, what? I It was very confusing. Yeah. Well, the layout of the room and I think that is his like style is like kind of fast speed talking kind of similar to what we do, but it's just not the right venue for it. And I thought some of his jokes like I was really shocked that like we were saying like such like sort of like you know airplane food comedy like can I get a discount code at Louis Vuitton forel like haha it was just like really like lowhanging fruit. Um it is an impossible job but Nikki Glazer you know

does it time and again proves time and time again like it's actually not. Um he was just pissing me off like with his like rattata like fast speaking um unfunny jokes and I'm he said it's his last year and I think this was like his way of going out with a bang. I think he like made some jokes that like he maybe was like holding back last year.

Was the bang in the room with us? Um not not my room, not my bang. So I like it was my least favorite part. Trevor Noah. I'm just not a Trevor Noah fan. Like I feel like he's just a part of that group of like sort of industry plant comedians, you know? Like I don't know how many, you know, rip roaring fans he has. And I don't know, I'm just like I'm over it.

It was a lot. The chairs were so packed together. There's like celebrities in every corner of the TV. I'm like trying to hear what he said

and you could tell they were like hiding from the camera and it's like to the point of what you're saying and there's just too much going on. I don't like the format.

Did you see there was like a guy who kept standing up like right in front of the camera like he either didn't know the camera was on him or that like the show started

afterwards. It was Kelty's husband. So I was like, "Oh my god, that guy looks like Kelty Knight's husband and he is like in music. He's like a really big music executive. I feel like that might be him." Um, but I like don't know 100% what he looks like. And then Kelsey posted on her Instagram. I'm like, "Yes, sorry. I wasn't there to tell him to sit down." Like it was actually so painful. Hilarious. That was like funny, but that was not really Trevor's doing. That was more so Chris is doing.

And Trevor was noticeably irritated. And it's like, what did you expect? You put the camera in the middle of a crowded floor.

You're standing in the audience. Why don't you get on stage? Like I didn't being in It was so manic. It was really crazy. I did not like it.

It was really crazy. And I feel like they hope that they're going to get like good celeb reactions in the background of stuff like

that's so 10 years ago. Low hanging fruit. That's so 10 years ago. Like, oh my god, audience reaction. GIF.

If we're bringing it, if we're bringing things back from 10 years ago, you know what I'd like to bring back? Put the camera on all the nominees. Like for when they find out that they won or lost. I'm sorry. Like it's fun.

I feel like they try to like save face. No, I like it. Bring it back. Yeah. Then Briner performed. Queen Breener performed Manchild uh from Sabrina Carpenter Air. She brought an airplane. It was like very 19. Very, you know Amanda.

Um Amanda Francis. Yes. Sabina Carpenter performed as Amanda Francis. I just love that girl. Like I know she

not didn't win one award last night, but like it wasn't like her year, you know? Last year was her year. And she had like a lot of good stuff this year. like enough to get nominated but really not enough to win. Um, but that performance was just it had everything. It had the dancing, it had the Tik Tok dance, it had the song, it had the vocals, it had the outfit, it had the aesthetic. Like I could have done without the bird cuz like one like leave the bird alone and two it like the bird kind of like fell. Um, but other than that it like I just felt like so everyone should go home.

Yeah, it felt very effortless too. Like she was so comfortable, not nervous at all. She's just like walking striding.

And I like my voice. I dig it. And she has so much fun when she does it. Like this is someone who loves their job. And I just felt like they should have ended the performances after that. Like she was so good. I felt bad for everyone else. You ever you know a performance so good like it makes you feel bad for everyone?

Um don't even bother. Yeah. But it's like this didn't make me feel bad for anyone because I feel like vocally she's amazing but it's not like she has something that no one else can like achieve. So like everyone is capable of this sort of greatness at who can sing who can carry

meet her here. Yeah. It's not like you know Mariah Carey and like well you all were born can't sing in that. Sorry.

Yeah. Next Kendrick Lamar won best rap album. That felt right. Yeah. Um best new artist medley.

Okay. So what they did was best new artist nominees. They all performed one after the other. They all got you know ample time to perform. Don't you feel like the Maria's got like a little bit more like

it felt long? You know, it just like felt really long. 1,000% to time flies when you're having fun.

So the medley and it crawls when you're not. The medley's where I was like starting to like feel, you know, distant from, you know, the new generation. Um, and it it pains me to say like obviously I don't know the Maras and that girl like was talented, but that music was dreadful. Um, and then they went into Addison. And I feel like since Addison's launch on TikTok, like no two people have been more supportive of her. And I love that she, you know, chose music as like she was doing acting and then social media and she chose music and she's like giving it her whole heart.

It's not the type of pop stardom I wanted. And that doesn't mean that it's bad or good. It's just not what I like. It's very Charlie XX, Lana Del Rey, whereas I'm much more like, you know, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, like more obvious, you know? Yeah. Um, and then that performance was really shocking in its badness. Um, the song Fame is a Gun is I've heard like that one 8-second clip from Tick. It's a night, you know, like I know like the 8 seconds. Um, I had never heard the whole song before and it was really shocking how not good it was. The dancing, like it was all so crazy.

It was not good. It felt cheap to me, the dancing and the backstage. And I want the most for her and I've always been supportive of her and I always will. I would never be like a hater, but like you know, you have to be able to just be like that wasn't the greatest.

Yeah. And I just know it was kind of killing Tate McCrae. Like because when she showed up on that truck, it was from a really far camera distance. I was like, "Oh, is that Tay McCrae? Was she nominated?" The whole thing was giving just like really tryh hard and like the vocals weren't great. The dancing everything was like operating at a very mediocre level.

Yeah. And she's a really great dancer. So they did like the dance break and the dance break wasn't dance break.

Yeah. It wasn't good. Yeah. And then to Cats Eye. Yikes. Yeah, though. Okay, so they performed their song Gnarly. This is what I think I know about Cats Eye. Are they the group from the Netflix show?

Okay, I think that they are they are. But do they not sing Golden? No. Oh, okay.

They are the group from the Netflix show. Are they K-pop or are they just like a band? I feel like bands like making the band.

I just feel like bands they're the Danity K are K-pop. Like I don't know any other bands like

because they are like mimicking Blackpink and like what they bring which is like fire dance moves. You're all in unison.

They were not in unison. They sang their song. They shouted their song gnarly. It was nutty. Like

it was nutty. At random times they're just someone shouting gnarly. Like it was interesting to watch them as a collective but then also focus individually.

Giving fifth harmony. Yes. Exactly. It was giving fifth harmony. So with those backto-back Maria's I was like damn this new generation of music is not cutting it and then things started to slowly get better with Leon Thomas who I completely discovered in that moment. Ben was like that looks like Andre from Victorious. I'm like of course you would know that it is. I didn't know that that was happening much like Cynthia Orivo that um Andre whose name is Leon Thomas. He's also a Grammy winner. Like he's been around for a little bit. He won last night.

I've heard the name. Yes. And I just had him put together that that was Andre. Like that school really was a performing arts school. Like they were churning out the stars. And I just know it kills Victoria Justice. Like another one bites the dust. Like Ariana Grande, Leon Thomas. She was right though. They really do all sing.

Yeah. Crushed it. I thought his performance was great. And like I wasn't familiar with his music, but if he had won, I would have thought it was welld deserved.

Yeah. So that's when it started to get better for me. Yeah. Like we needed a break from the chaos

and it was just refreshing to see a guitar. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Bring back guitars. I feel like I never see guitars anymore

like instruments. Well, you saw a guitar on Justin Bieber. Yeah, we'll talk about that.

I saw one. I saw one, but you didn't hear one. No, but it was like loop-de-loop.

Yeah. Then Alex Warren performed Ordinary and like I feel so bad for him today. I know he cried himself to sleep cuz his he couldn't hear it. He started singing the from the moment he the camera he's touching his ear and he's walking through the crowd and it's like so chaotic and he's like thinking what am I singing in my ear? He's like not enjoying himself. Then he gets to the stage and he rips it off. Usually that's like okay let him rip and he was just not with the music.

Thankfully he put it back in and then by the time he was uplifted singing the chorus like he was on track but you just know like he is so upset.

I was so upset. It was devastating. Like what a big deal to be nominated for best new artist especially like I mean I think a lot of people have like crazy come up stories but his is really kind of we know him from the hype house but before that I mean he was homeless. He's an orphan. just a real rags to riches story, a real success story. Um, just devastated. And seriously, I don't know whose job it was to make sure the monitors were on, but like I want him to be held accountable. Like I feel so bad. It wasn't like, you know, Alex Warren stunk it up. Not at all.

It was not his fault. I felt his voice sounds great. He wasn't with his music and he couldn't hear and that was really sad. Like my heart goes out to him and I just want to tell him like the Grammys aren't that big of a deal. Like don't worry about it. No one was watching. in your life. You'll do things greater than singing at maybe you won't, but

I think he will. No one was watching. Seriously, like we're all gonna forget about it.

And I just want to say he gets a lot of like I see like music people who like criticize music like they call like him and Olivia Dean, they call it like supermarket music, right? It's just like they it's like they say it's similar to Megan Trainer, right? Like music that just sounds good and people like. And after those three dreadful performances, I was like, we need to erase this stigma around supermarket music because what you're telling me is supermarket market music is good. It sounds nice. It's joyful. Yeah. Okay. So, what's your Somebody asked me what I like. I like supermarket music.

I love supermarket music. That's always how I know something's a hit. I'm like, I heard it at the supermarket.

Yeah. And I think that's like, you know, looked down on from like music critics and what like the Maras is considered good. Sorry. No, bring back supermarket music. I felt so bad for him. It was so it was as an empath myself that I kind of like couldn't recover after that.

Yeah, me neither. And I'm also like kind of glad that he didn't win cuz I don't think he could have like given a speech after that. Like I think his night was thoroughly ruined. Another year will be his Grammys year. He'll have an amazing performance and he will triumph and I just that was not it. And that was

it was triggering for me though. Um you know given the Picasso of it all. Oh yeah.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize that was happening. Yeah. Then Lola Young sang screamed messy.

That was such a crazy performance. She's a crazy girl and I like I like crazy. I agree. And that song is really good. The rendition was just not for me. I appreciate her trying to do something new and different. She is an extremely talented vocalist and I think she wanted to show that off and she just sort of went sideways.

She went too high and loud and far. Yeah, it was a crazy performance. It was it was a crazy evening for Lola. She wound up winning an award for messy best pop vocals which I think has earned the vocals on that song are insane and she shouted her thank you like it was just

she's a shoutter. She's just a crazy person but like the Grammys are for the crazy people for Lady Gaga for her own that outfit

for Lola. Yeah and Alex Warren's just not crazy enough. I know that's what he's Supermarket. Same with but Olivia Dean did win.

Then it went to Olivia Dean. She sang Man I need. I love watching her perform and she brought the same energy like from all of her performances to the Grammy. So, I feel like people who didn't know who she was or weren't familiar with her game were able to like see what we all see. And then she won and it was so earned after that medley.

It was just very clear after like the leadup of the performances that like she was the winner, right? I mean, from the dreadful nonsense to like the just noise from Cat's Eye, it was very clear like if she didn't win, there was something really wrong with that category.

Well, Somber also performed. So, you know what? We have talked about somber a few times and I feel like

is that the one dating Jakota Johnson? No, that's role model. Sally, we talked about

Oh my god, I don't have it as a story. Sally's 25th birthday. We can talk about it after. It's not a story.

It is. So Somber we talked about because he was at the um like dinner where Taylor Swift was giving out loaves of her bread.

Okay. And then we were like who is it? And I and he performs on SNL. Yes. And I've been learning so much about Somber in the last 24 hours and everything I learned about him I love. Ready? First of all, his performance was incredible. And I do know that know that song. In a room full of people, I look for you. It sounds different. And he's

I know it too. It's very disco. I like it a lot. No one's like doing, you know, music like that.

It's good. And his, you know, he kind of looks like a nerd. So, you just don't think he's going to have like

riz. I thought it was going to be Benson. No, it was so different. I loved it. And wait, wait till you hear this. You're going to love him even more.

J. What's his real name? Mush. Like something. Wait, his last name. Somebody told me it's like safy, like something really Jewish, like Sopetel or something like

omber. He grew up on the Lower East Side. Shane Michael Boo. No, that's not what I heard. Are you sure that's his last name?

Yeah. Let me see. I feel like you're just like, "Oh my god, there's a question people also ask. This is not a sentence. Is Somber a nepo?"

He's not. I believe he was raised by a single mom on the Lower East Side. Um, okay. Let me go to his

You sure that's his real name? That's what's coming up on this tab. What tab is that

on Google? Like right there. Somber is the stage name of Shane Michael Boost. That's none of that is really giving Jew.

No, I'm telling you it's Are you sure it's not role model? I'm positive. Or Benson Boon.

I'm sorry. You sure? Where'd you hear that? Just like the comments. So I guess he Yeah. Was raised on the Lower East Side. Oh, thank you. He's the son of Benna Sarati. That's was the name that I heard and Andy Boo. Oh, who have both worked for Amfar. That's not Nepo.

No. Well, it depends in what capacity, you know. He was really good. I really liked him. He He shouldn't win because having one good song does not a new artist make, but I felt like it was a great global stage for him.

I agree. And I would have been happy like for Alex Warren to win that also would have earned. But I was Noes on Olivia Dean.

No notes. And she was one of my best dressed in that Chanel dress. Yeah. Love. Then Justin Bieber came out in his undies.

Yeah. So brave. I mean I said to Ben like you have to not eat all day to be on stage in your undies. Like what if you like

what sat in undies? Like what if you pee a little like or what if you sharp like not sharp for 3 minutes?

It's kind of a scary thing. He's performing for the first time in many years. It's just like a crazy move to for the first time perform in your

Well, not because of an accidental like PR. so many things. But just because it's a very like, you know, it's a very shocking thing to see. It's a very like it's

I understood the message like the metaphor. He was stripped down, right? Yeah. It's just like him in his room messing with his music and like riffing about his lady love. He sang Yukon naked with a guitar on him.

We saw a new tattoo. He's got a big picture of Haley on his back. Yeah. I um I like that song. It's not my favorite. Like I so could have used it. Just take good time, honey. I get it. I get it. I get it. But clearly like he wanted he had this like vision whatever. You know what what's good for Justin is good for me. He's got an amazing voice. He seemed to be doing really well. Haley was so supportive. Um and it was good. It was fine. Like I

it was he successfully performed. I think people were worried about like what's it going to be like to see him live. He sounded really good,

right? People forget he has one of the best voices. Like it's not pee pe poo poo.

No, not at all. Even though like the undies were a shock, I think in talking about it like I understand what he was like trying to say and

he's just like a boy in his room. It's just like this is me. No like sparkle, no distractions. I'm not even going to wear a shirt,

right? That's how it's very distracting. That's how undistracted you'll be like. And this is how I made this song about the woman that I love. So,

and they kept cutting to Haley. Like I that was really good that they did that.

I appreciated that. We got a lot of Haley. Um, they were, you know, seated in Trevor Noah's unfortunate like realm of, you know, closeness. But I I liked it.

Yeah. I'm not going to say I understood it completely. She used to drive you like I liked it.

I liked it as much as I could for not knowing like for wearing your undies for No, no. Like and I don't I didn't really I've heard maybe bits of that song, but I don't really know it. I didn't listen to swag. So, it's like, you know, watching someone that I'm not like a huge watching. Like,

it was good though. No, it was good. Like, job well done. Check. We can exhale.

Yeah. Right. Um, Bad Bunny won uh the award for best Musa Urbana album. Okay. Musa Urbana. Could you talk less? Like,

what do you want me to me say? Musa Urbana. Yes. Yes. You really want me to say that?

Musa Urbana. You really want me? Do you think that like more than anything? That's like more offensive than if I just said

Musicer Urbana. Music Arbana. Welld deserved. Yeah. Let me tell you, I wasn't familiar with Carol G and her beauty.

Yes, she is. At the beginning of the show, they cut to a beautiful woman. I said, "Oh, who's that random beautiful woman?" And I've seen Carol G perform because she performs at a lot of these award shows and I didn't recognize her. And then when she came to present the award, I was like, "Oh, that's Carol G.

That's a beautiful woman." and their little her and Marcelo. That chick made me laugh like

oh yeah that my future kids are gonna clean the house too. Very funny. Very I agree. Also Trevor Noah kept making these jokes about Bad Bunny in the Super Bowl and how he can perform tonight cuz he's playing the Super Bowl. Can we get you to perform?

So why don't you just respect his boundaries? It just was not funny. Yeah. Then Lady Gaga performed Abracadabra.

And much like Apata, I believe it's a song she's probably like beat to the ground, right? It's like it was one of the biggest songs this year. She was on tour. When I went to see her at Madison Square Garden, they started the show an hour late because she performed Abracadabra six times and they filmed it for the VMAs. So like this is a song she's beat to death. So I understand her wanting to, you know, reinvent it in a sense, the lampshade, like everything. She is who she thinks she is and she is who all these other [ __ ] like think that they are. And when we talk about like crazy artists, like all of it is fake. All of it is performative. Lady Gaga is so the real thing. She's the craziest person on the planet. And what I love about her is like I don't get it, right? I don't understand anything that she does, but she never sacrifices like the quality of her performance cuz yes, it was insane.

It was an amazing performance of that song. So like while I don't understand it, I can enjoy it.

Yeah. And I appreciate that. Like she is who Chapel Ran thinks she is like with her nipples out. Like please.

Oh my god, that dress of Chapel Ran. No, it's obviously fake nipples, right? Cuz like I didn't see like pink.

Oh, I didn't like look at for Arei. I was just like felt like I was watching a medieval torture chamber like that. Oh

yeah. No. Chilling. Chilling. Did you feel like I know she's still really big, but like definitely like chap like kind of fell off.

Well, cuz do you remember last year when like every single person was like thanking her and like during her performance it was like all anyone was talking about and it was like all the celebrities were like tripping over themselves to get near her. Like she was like this sort of godlike figure. And she released one or two songs this year. one of them was nominated the subway. But don't you feel like it's just like

well I wanted to say like you know don't they say there's like a best new artist curse?

Yeah. And then I'm like well wait no chapel ran last won last year. Like maybe it's not

but Yeah. No, I mean I just think it's not a curse. It's just like sometimes people go places and sometimes they don't. Like I think there are famous people who have lost it. Like I think Christine Aguilera lost it.

I think Justin Bieber lost it, right? But I think there are like some you know clear people who have won it. Like I think Selen Dion won, you know, so it's just like 50/50.

Okay. They're like they can't like they're just guessing. Yeah. It wasn't Chapel's here and that's fine. Um I loved Abracadabra. I love that song. I also because I was watching with captions, I got to like hear some

of the lyricism of the lyrics that I I was just always like she sang the floors on bar.

Yeah. It's such a good song. I actually when I went to Mayhem, that's when I really started to appreciate it cuz I heard it 10 times and I was like, you know, this song is really good. I feel like it was a great night for Gaga.

It was cuz she also won best pop vocal temporary uh album. Yeah. And it wasn't it's a it was a weird year for for just like there was no clear winners. I feel like everybody won their category. Everybody won something. But her speech was and then by the way, she gives a crazy performance and then like an incredibly cogent speech.

She's very intelligent. She is. And like she was just like, I really, you know, appreciate hard work and craftsmanship, and that's what this album is to me. And like I think the fact that she was able to put out like a crazy artistic piece of art, but also have it be commercially successful is the dream for her.

Yeah. And I also I don't know, she's at this level where like, you know, I don't think she would like be excited about winning like pop contemporary. I didn't even know that was a category. I know pop vocal, but pop contemporary. She was so humbled and like so honored. I just feel like her for me like her Q score went up so much. Like I've always loved her. I love her music. She's crazy. I feel like I understand her a little bit more and her and her man, her audio engineering man. Um, she looked so normal in so many senses even though she is this like crazy person.

You know who she is? She's that quote flubber. Yes. Oh my god. She is Flubbert.

She is Flubbert. This is the quote you know that I love. Yeah. Be regular and orderly in your life so that you may be violent and original in your work.

Yeah. Because I feel like she lives a very normal home life. like her man is so normal.

She even when she was speaking, yes, she was like kind of soft spoken. You wouldn't think she was that crazy [ __ ] who was just doing that lampshade performance. I feel like it was such a great night for her. I'm so happy for her. And that album is so good.

Yeah, I listen to it. I like usually whenever I watch an award, I either like find new music or I'm reminded of something. Like this morning I was like, "Play Mayhem.

I can cure." Also, I feel like she hasn't won an award in a long time. Yeah. So, I felt like it meant a lot to her. There was a time where she was sweeping and then to like you know put out an album let's say 10 15 years after like

Born This Way and be showing all these [ __ ] how it's done. I think that it's even more meaningful.

Yeah. And I just think it's like very clear she has a a happy home life and that was coming through for me.

She feels very fulfilled. Jelly Roll won best contemporary country album. I was really shocked by that. I don't know why. Well, I mean, I didn't have a horse in the race of albums that were nominated. And

I thought Eric Church was gonna win. Like the industry loves Jelly Roll. Like the mainstream in like not just country music and country radio, but like

pop and Hollywood loves Jelly Roll. He's like getting tapped a lot. So, Pop Off King.

Yeah. And he was so excited to win. It's nice to see like people who like these things mean a lot to. Yeah, I agree.

When it means something to someone. Yeah. Uh, then we had Bruno Mars performing his new song, I Just Might.

Okay. The vocals like weren't there for me, honestly. But were you shocked? First of all, I love that song. And I It's brand new. It's like a week old. Were you surprised that everyone in the audience knew the words? Like the celebrities.

Do you know the words? Yeah, of course. Yeah, but it's a oneweek old song and the celebrities knew it. They kept I feel like more so than other performances, they kept cutting to people in the audience. These huge stars. Everybody was mouthing the words. I'm like, how do you guys know it? Like I can't I just feel like he is peerless. M

everybody he sort of like sets the standard. Yeah, he does. I really enjoy the performance.

Me too. I love What are his bandmates called? The hooligans. Oh, I live for those hooligans. Like they are supremely talented and it's it's giving guitar.

Yeah. Like live vocals. Yeah. Maybe he could have had a backtrack sound a little better. No. Everything with Bruno was like live music, live vocals, live dancing. Like I loved it.

Yeah. And I'm glad he's back in the mix. Me as well. And then next year he'll be nominated for best album and like we'll get more

brute doo doo doo doo. Exactly. Billy Isish won song of the year for Wildflower.

Okay. This is wrong. You know, I hate when things are wrong. Now Golden was so clearly the song of the year. But if we just want to get factual, um, this song came out in 2024. It's from the Barbie movie, right? It's that one.

No, that's made for I don't know how it feel. Is that the song? No, the the Barbie movie one is like what I Was Made For

Is that not Wildflower? No, it's called What I Was Made For. Okay, fine. You're right about that. It sounds exactly the same. The song is wasn't even the year of the song it was released. So, it certainly wasn't the song of the year after it was released, but I guess through some like fcocked backwards way, they like re-released it or whatever. So, it wasn't even released this year. I had to Google it. I'm like, "Wait, what's that song?" Oh, yeah. I've heard a little bit of on TikTok. It was not the song of the year. Can you read me the other nominees?

Yes. Abracadabra better suited anxiety doi. I thought that was going to win and that was I forgot because it was like six months ago but that was

and it's so good and different. That was the song of the year. Aeta global song of the year like please.

I think so too. DTMF Bad Bunny also could have won and I would have had no issue. Like literally any of the songs could have won and I would have had an argument to support it. I do not have an argument here. Golden

except actually the only argument that I would make for why they might have won and that was the one that was delivered by um Carol King, right? So they were really leaning into the songwriting of it all.

Every song in that category, they would put the songwriters at the bottom. It was like a paragraph like 10 people.

Billy Isish's was her and her brother. And that I have to give credit even though I find her insufferable. That is impressive like how many people it takes to write a three minute song if it is about songwriting.

Yeah. And then record of the year is more about like Bop City. Yeah. Which went to says and um

Kendrick Lamar. So I have no issue with that either. And especially because um I think it's important that the song of the year be released that year. Like not to be a stickler for the rules, but

but sure if it's about the songwriting, that's fine. Manchild also was nominated and Luther and

Oh, Manchild also was one of the ones that had like less. It had maybe three or four and maybe one other

and Amy Allen. Yeah. Yeah, I agree. But for a Jackie, it was like 15 people. It was like insane.

I mean, and it's like it's just sounds like it's crazy. I'm coming to get you. I'm on my way.

It's like so good. It's so good. It should have been record of the year. Um I think something like more Bop Cityish should have been a record of the year. So like

Opa or Anxiety. Yeah. Then Oh, Tyler. Tyler Cameron. Tyler Cameron creator. Tyler creator performed. I think the simulation of vehicular manslaughter might have been when I turned off the show. They hit someone with a car and that was the performance

and they blew up the gas station that like they hit in front. It was really crazy. It was performance art. I did know that song because it was like a trending um like sugar on my tongue. Oh yeah. Tongue your body is so sweet. Um I will just um be honest like I didn't understand it. Call me

the performance. Yeah. I wasn't getting um any of it. So yeah, I didn't get it.

Yeah, I thought it was like crazy to hit someone with a car and then like dance around it.

It's just a little insensitive. Um Farel won the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award. Reeba led the immemoriam tribute.

I'm not going to lie, I did miss all of this. I was fast asleep. And Azie Osborne uh tribute.

Oh, that's nice. I feel like they were like dangling Reeba in front of us being like for the first time and she's performing and it was like for the immemoriam. Well, why don't you just do like a reeba tribute? I would have appreciated that. I feel like it's kind of like a slap in the face to be given the inmemoriam performance, you know?

You think so? I do. I think you can make it really beautiful. Well, of course, but

Oh, and then Sher received a lifetime achievement award and she also presented for record of the year and it was for Luther

the song and she said she gave it to Luther Vandros. And you know what? It's about time Luther Vandros is recognized. I mean that song dance with my father again like good luck not crying. Lutherros has long been snubbed.

I agree. And I like that sher sort of took matters into her own hands. Just for

so funny. And then Bad Bunny won album of the year. Welldeserved. I have no issue. I wasn't rooting for anyone like in particular. So

for Debbie Tar Moss Photos Moss Photos I think they all could have won and I would have been happy about it. Like I wouldn't have there's no one here that it's like undeserved. So

this wasn't a year where like there was a clear winner for me for sweeper. I guess the sweeper is bad.

Bad money because he won two or three times and he was he's the first person ever to win like Latin album of the year and which is kind of crazy. I it's giving like Casey Musgraves when she won golden hour country album of the year which is a big deal and then like also that's kind of cool.

But did she also win like songs? I feel like for the last few years they give everybody one and it's not really sweepy and in general I do like a sweep, but this wasn't a year of sweep.

No, nobody swept. Um, so those are the Grammys. I hope that everybody who watched them enjoyed them.

Yeah. And Trevor made it a big thing that like they're not going to be on CBS anymore and he's not hosting. I wonder where they're going.

Like why do I care? Yeah. I'm just like turning on my TV. Yeah, he was making it like our

TV guide and I click Grammys. I don't actually look at where it's at. I actually didn't realize I was watching CBSA

until he brought it up. I don't give a [ __ ] right? Just like put it on. I was watching it on YouTube TV. You know what I mean?

Like not on CBS unless they're going to another platform, right? Which would be a big deal like a thousand%. That's so funny.

Also, major news. Steven Spielberg is EGOT after this awards season. I just feel like he's not.

No, I feel like he is. And I'm not a Spielberg swirly, so don't get it twisted,

but this feels right. Somebody who should be any. He like does work across all, you know, mediums.

Really? I feel like he just directs movies. What else does he do? Like I don't know. He did Westside Story. So movie, musical movie,

but like there's music involved, right? That he's not a part of like he's just directing the music people.

He did the music for the documentary music by John Williams, which got an No, like he direct.

He's just giving back door EOT. Sorry. No, I think it's easier for someone on the back end to win an Egon than on the front end.

No, somebody like Jennifer Hudson like is such an obvious eotter. Yeah, right. But like on the back end, like Pac and Paul can be e like that would feel

cuz they create music. Yeah, but that would be like more backend because you get an Oscar in there.

Yeah, that's fine. I I genuely someone who stars in an Oscar movie, a Tony production, gets a Grammy, like that's harder. But I will accept backend EGOTs. Okay.

You know, behind the lens. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Sad news. Katherine O'Hara, Shitz Creek star and comedy legend, dies at 71.

This was shocking. Moira Rose, also the mom from Home Alone. She's in a million things, but like most recently Moira.

And when we found out she passed, Ben has actually been wanting to watch Best in Show. Do you know what that is? So, it's like kind of Katherine O'Hara's greatest work. And it was the first time she ever worked with Eugene Levy.

So, they like had known each other. I didn't realize they had like they have this like very very famous movie. And when Joey Kamassa was posting about her death, he kept posting about her character. She plays this like it's about these like crazy dog people who all travel to this like dog competition. Joe, whatever. Um, and I didn't realize they play husband and wife, so they have this like long sorted history. I was shocked.

Yeah. It's very sad. Oh my god. Like a I feel like I can't remember the last time like somebody so beloved

Yeah. passed away so unexpectedly. Like she was 71, but like that's not even that old. And she was a very young 71.

Yeah. And I think it's like hitting really hard for people because of like the Home Alone movies. Like she was very much like America's mom for many years.

Moira for like she's so Moira. She is Moira. And now it's like you go back and it's like oh and she was the mom in Home Alone. But I don't know why I feel like one of her lasting roles that she'll really be remembered for is Moira.

And how amazing is that? Far be from me. 50 years in the making. Yeah. To have like the high of your career

that you're going like the thing people remember you for is the last thing you did.

Love Moira. love Moira. This is so so sad. Yeah. Um and then you know if you ask her what her favorite role is, you know what she says?

Being a mom. That was like someone like asked what role she like TMZ person at like the airport.

Yeah. Like an airport Nothing. They were like what's the role would you want to be remembered for? And she was like being a mom.

That's my humble queen right there. I love her. That's our matriarch. Literally very

in the patriarch. And like I I feel like everyone was turning out with their tributes. Like this is a person who deeply affected like you know all of her peers.

Yeah. So sad. Yeah. And put them on notice like that level of talent. Me join me up here. She has raised the bar. I mean Moira Rose is an exercise in perfection. Like in brilliance.

It is bar none like the greatest comedy performance delivered on TV in the last 20 years. Yeah. Like it's insane. And I just know when they like created the character of Moira, like she was this one thing on paper and what she ended up becoming was what Katherine O'Hara like that wasn't what they envisioned. No,

she just took this role and made it nutty. Like she was probably this like very

like out of touch woman living in a motel with wigs. But like what she ended up being like was not

like Katherine O'Hara created the character. She took her off and the template. We've never seen a character like that before. I'm sure we'll see a bunch of copies going forward.

I think it's time to watch Shitz Creek again. It's always a good time. It is, but we've got a lot on our content plate.

We're so busy. We're so caught up in the Real Housewives. Like, hello. Yeah, we'll get to it. Our next story. Kim Kardashian is secretly dating F1 star Lewis Hamilton. Reports say they spent a romantic weekend together in the UK.

Don't you feel like everyone's like dating Lewis Hamilton? Yeah. It's like what you do when you want to date someone.

Yeah. It's just kind of like who's like age appropriate. Yeah. I find the whole thing very uninspired.

Yeah. It's like when she was rumored to be dating Odell Odell Beckham Jr. Yeah. I don't know. This kind of reminds me of like when Tom Brady broke up with Jazelle and he like dated um Ireina Shake. It's just like so obvious, so uninspired. Like, okay, you're dating like the most richest famous athlete, Kim. Cool.

Yeah. Like at least when she dated Pete Davidson, it was interesting. It was different kind of.

Yeah, I agree. I also like I just kind of like don't like F1 is a blind spot for me.

Mhm. But Lewis Hamilton is everywhere and he's just everywhere. I just don't see it as like a good match. I don't know anything about Lewis. I'm just like not getting the vibes that this is going to be the one.

And they've been photographed together a number of times. Like they're both like fashion

like similar circles, fancy ones. So what? It was like a friends to lovers. I kind of like don't think it's real.

I don't know. Her jet like literally was in the UK. Okay. It's always there. It's always everywhere and his was like, you know what I mean? I don't know. Like when she did she really date Odell?

Yeah. She dated Odell. Mhm. But then she said on Chloe and Wonderland she hasn't been on a date in a year.

Odell was more than a year ago, right? But like she hadn't gone on a date with Louis by the time she went on.

Maybe they recorded that like two months ago. Yeah, for sure. So this is very new.

Um, did we make it a story like totally random about the Devil War product 2 trailer?

No. I want to talk about it really quickly. Yeah, this would be a good time. It's fashion news.

And when we said the UK, I just I don't know why I like thought of it. Um, so the premise of the the movie is bothering me. I don't know what I thought it was going to be, but I have like a better premise of what it should be. Andy returns to runway to be like the head of their features department.

Okay. Which I just don't love. Like she was so different. Like No, but like features, it's not just like fashion, it's, you know, writing. And

I don't know why I assumed assumed that Andy was going to return um and be doing like a feature like she's like a big writer at like Vanity Fair and like she would be covering she has like shadow Miranda for a month and like write a piece about her so she becomes like her assistant again and like travels everywhere and like I just thought my idea was better. So I think they should redo it.

That is funny. Like her working at runway is just like not believable. And it's just like they're trying to redo the same thing where it's like she's out of place and at the you know what I mean? It's just like a little copy and paste. No, I mean I have to see it of course,

but sometimes copy and paste is good. Like don't [ __ ] with it. But so far I just I like my

she's coming back like in a big role that's like you know a brainy role for a brainy girl

and she was just so judgmental and like I'm sorry they don't write like brainy pieces at those types of magazines.

But they think they do like having a boyfriend is embarrassing. Like that's like the l like

was that features? That was like a big thing. Like that was the last p I I don't like that's the only thing that comes to mind when I think of like literary pieces from Vogue that like shape shape culture or like people talk about.

Yeah. And the butt crack coming back. That's what I mean. So like I don't think Andy's like writing that.

Yeah. Well, it's exciting. People are excited. I'm excited actually. Um so Kim and Lewis like TBD. I'm not going to like ship or really spend much time on it until like I'm seeing more tangible things. I just feel like it's obvious and uninspired

and maybe not even true. It's giving not even true. It's giving like showmance.

Oh, okay. She needs a little something, you know? She does need something. And that's an easy That's a no-brainer. Is like a a buzzy couple.

Yeah. Are you ready for our next story? Yeah. I just feel like it's like, oh, I need press like Louiswis Hamilton. You know what I mean?

Yeah. And fine, fair. We're talking about it, but I'm just like not going to get emotionally messed in any way, negative or positive.

Thank you. Free $60 turt. You're welcome. Our next story is major news. Today's Groundhog's Day and Psatani Phil has predicted six more weeks of winter as opposed to I don't know.

I just feel like Punkatani Phil is so like not intuitive or smart. And I think obviously like take a look at the ice storms, the free it's 30° in Florida. So I feel like he just It's like, duh.

Yeah, good job. And it's like, is six weeks of winter the lesser one or the more one? You know what's the opposite?

The opposite is like spring begins today. So, he chose the bad one. Yeah, it is.

He always chooses the bad. It always like it's like forever. I feel like when we were younger, I really like had more of a stake in what Poxatonyi Phil had to say.

I mean, I thought it was like Bible. I was like, "Oh my god, God is listening." And then it's gonna be cold.

You saw he shadowed. When I saw that like he, you know, when I was a kid and I saw that it was six more weeks of winter, I was like crushed.

I thought it actually affected the weather. No, I thought he was really an oracle. Like he knew,

right? Um, but I I just want to say like I love Groundhog's Day. I think we don't have a lot of traditions like this

that we do just cuz. And like February 2nd to me will always be Groundhog's Day.

I agree. It's like a beautiful storied tradition passed down from generation to generation. And I like that it's like this dumb thing that we all still continue to do. It's something you think like with Peeta or whatever like we would have been done with. It's nice to have like moronic traditions that we all talk about like sort of like very um

just like nonsense. Nonsense like apolitical jargon that like we can all just agree on.

Yeah. Phil put out a statement. He said Phil says it's great to be back on the job. This is a Super Bowl season. and lots of responsibility, lots of attention, and absolutely no room for mistakes. He takes he's sponsored by Ace Hardware.

That's a great partnership. He takes pride in being Ace Hardware's most reliable seasonal employee, mostly because he never calls in sick.

Um well, it's not hard to call in sick when you work one day a year. And um I don't think he's the most reliable hardware uh employee at Ace Hardware, uh because he's always wrong. So him predicting six more weeks of winter is actually good news. Like we're almost done, you guys.

He's always wrong. And he's also a father. So I guess that's why he I feel like he's always seeing his shadow.

We need to like get a list of like and maybe call me dumb, but don't you see your shadow when the sun's out?

Well, that's the point. If it's sunny and he saw his shadow, then maybe it's coming. Then maybe like if there's no sun. I Let's ask Chad.

If you see your shadow, that means the sun is out, meaning it's warm. Winter's over.

He didn't see I don't know if he saw his shadow. Oh, you said he saw his shadow.

Did I say that? I said six more weeks of winter. Oh, okay. Maybe what is the rationale behind going?

No, that's not the right question. And the groundhog seeing his What is the method?

Rale feels. Okay. It's a funny little mix of old European football. Reasonal psychology plus a dash of pageantry. The basic idea, if he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter, doesn't see his shadow, it's early spring.

Okay. So, that makes no sense cuz if you don't see your shadow, that means the sun's not out.

Yeah. It has to do with February 2nd is Candlemiss, a Christian holiday that falls about halfway between

it's a religious holiday and the spring. We should have taken off. I didn't realize it was a religious holiday.

People believe. Okay. Because February 2nd is exactly between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. You know, winter and spring. People believe that the weather on this day can predict how long winter will last.

Oh, so I guess it's not like all like woo woo. Like there's a little Here's a rhyme from back in the day. If candle mist be fair and bright, winter will have another light, flight. If candle mist brings clouds and rain, winter is gone and will not come again.

It's kind of like an old wives tale. Sunny day equals more winter. Cloudy day equals spring is near.

Okay, it is. That's cute. Yeah, I'm glad we did that. Me, too. Cuz I had no idea what we were doing.

And congrats, Phil. Congrats, Phil. You crushed it today. Things you did that you can bring home the bacon for your family. It's a beautiful thing.

Yeah. Fifth and final story. Oh, I cannot wait to talk about this. Leading into more housewives discussion, but the original Rooney cast has defected from Bravo with a new show for a rival network, which is E, which is all over. It's

not really rival because it's their parent company, but I guess they they are considered competitors of one another.

Yeah. So, the original cast of Bravo's Beloved Real Houses of New York City have packed up their penino and defected to E. Sources say that Lan, Sonia, Jill, Xarin, Kelly Ben Simone, and Ramona Singer have signed a deal with E and expect to have a new show on the air by the end of the year. I just I adore this. You want to know why? It's like I respect that Bravo wanted to reboot Rooney. Like maybe I think that there was an they got to an inflection point with a lot of the franchises where like these OGs who were beloved like wasn't it wasn't working and they tried something new with Rooney and it didn't work. They kind of refused to like admit that and revert or do something else.

They're just like kind of digging their heels in and there is so much demand for these women. Like I feel like they're living new interesting lives. A lot of them have moved. I feel like a lot of them actually live in Florida. Maybe the show is going to be based in Florida. Like

all the women that were named for this show does Jill does. Yeah. So like there's so much demand for them. They're beloved. I feel like Bravo gives them like you know peanuts like they bring them to Bravo Con and like maybe they go and watch Robins Live every now and then but there is a demand for it. And so the fact that they didn't just like wait for Bravo, I kind of love this. And it's like I really actually hope the show is successful because these these women should have been picked back up a while ago. Like

especially if they're all like living together like the show is happening. They get together all the time.

Camera's up. Yeah. It seems like a no-brainer. They live in the same area. Um I like hate that Bravo wouldn't do it and they just sort of, you know, ultimate girls stream. It's not enough and it's not sustainable and there should be a show for these women and I'm really curious if it's going to be successful because there is such demand for and there's more demand for them than there is for the new legacy Rooney.

Yeah. I can't imagine that if they just went back to Rooney with like the same old drunks if it would be worse ratings than what they're doing now. There's no way.

No is not on it. They Dinda the women that they named don't live in New York so it wouldn't be Rooney even if that Bravo did pick it up. Dinda's not on it. She doesn't live in Florida. These are all women who live here.

It's kind of Real House of Florida sort of. It's And look at members only. Like it was very popular. There is like an interesting scene down here for older women.

Yeah. I wonder like what they'll how they'll bill it and especially not using like bravo terminology, but it's something about like OG's.

Yeah. OGs in the And Beth is noticeably absent even though she does also live down in Florida,

but she put out a video with her thoughts on she loves it. Yeah. But like she should be on it.

Yeah. Maybe. Let's see how it goes. Maybe she would. It's popular enough she would do it. I'm I'm excited to watch it.

Me, too. Yeah. I feel like Darinda's vomiting cuz like any chance that she had She's going to move.

She's literally going to like relocate Blue Stone Manor because any chance she had of getting back to Bravo, which we know she wants, was if they throw in the towel already with Rooney. Um but now all the women are doing something else.

Yeah, maybe she'll move. She should fly down, do like a little, you know, a seasonal

a cameo apartment, a condo. I'm excited. Well, Beverly Hills Housewives is kind of one of the remaining franchises that never had like a full reboot but still has OGs and they've really done it quite well. I was thinking that last night. It's actually amazing how Kyle Richards like you know some seasons I like her sometimes I don't but like she really is a great housewife and she's the only OG who's doesn't feel like this hanger on her like let the mouse go. Um this season is fantastic and I I'm happy to admit I was definitely wrong about Rachel Zo.

Oh good. I was going to ask you. I thought she wouldn't like join you know it is a little bit like you debaseed yourself a little bit on house size. you do have to be like embarrassing in restaurants, right? And I thought for sure like she wouldn't be down to clown, but I feel like she is clowning. She's having like snarky I I so far I'm really enjoying her and she herself she's just, you know,

she's interesting as a person and I didn't realize it was going to coincide with her divorce um and that she would be sharing so much. And um I was wrong about her. Her home was beautiful. Like I

Oh, I love her house. Her style so interesting. I want to see more of her house. She's so interesting to look at. when she was at the vintage store just like trying on little jacket crop Chanel jackets left and right like it was such a pleasure to watch. Her hair is beautiful, her jewelry spend like that's what we need.

Yeah, it's I really am enjoying her and then she goes and just like you know talk [ __ ]

Yeah. No, and it's not like she's shying away which I really appreciate. I think

she's also not like debasing herself or putting on or like doing something that she thinks the audience wants to see cuz she needs to be on the show. Like she's just being herself and I feel like that's where like the women of Beverly Hills thrive. Like Kathy Hilton doesn't need to be on the show. isn't going to do anything,

but everyone meets her where she's at. Yeah. She's just going to be herself and we're going to enjoy it. And she also adds to the fodder. It's been really, really great. And I love that she's like gotten close with a lot of the girls already. She loves Erica, likes to read, like

she fits right in, right? And she doesn't feel like a new girl, which is great. And I think I actually feel bad for Amanda. And I don't think she should have been cast on the show. I actually think it was like like a mean thing to do because

everyone who comes into the group is more or less an extension of someone. I don't remember how they introduced her, but Kyle's friend. Yeah. Right. They ain't friends.

Yeah. And she's so out of her league. Like she really reminds me a lot of Whitney Rose um from Salt Lake City just in like how she dresses and how she talks. And you know Beverly Hills is like the crown jewel of the franchise. They they get really affluent women, really famous women. You know

even that random girl who keeps showing up was married to Simon Cowell. Like it's just Wait, what?

She was married to Simon Fuller. Oh wait, who's that? Like Simon Cowell. Oh, wait. She wasn't matched to I kept telling me about him. I'm like, she was back to Simon Hill.

Simon Fuller. He's also like an executive. I think he also produced American Idol. There were two Simons.

Oh, my bad. Okay. But it's like the same thing. Okay. Sorry. But like that's what I mean. It's a real upper echelon. I mean, even you know, you think of some Crystal Kung Minkov. They keep referring to her cuz like literally speaking, I'm sorry. Her husband is like a huge deal. So, she's so out of her league with her fake business that's quite literally an MLM. And she's like social media, social media. I went on Instagram. gets 700 likes and she has 500,000 followers. Like it's a scam like the whole thing. There will be a documentary on it.

But how does she have that house? I don't know. I do believe she is a successful scammer so far like with her courses. So it's like with her she just wears like cross body bags and bodycon dresses. Like it's giving Salt Lake City and I don't mean that in a negative way. It's just a different tier of wealth and how people dress. So she was never going to make it. And her personality sucks.

Yeah. Her personality sinks. What's funny is I actually didn't even see her that way because she so doesn't see herself that way. I think she thinks she's on a different level from these women where she's like more enlightened.

She ain't Yeah. And like when she's like saying we made beautiful choices with the house like she's just like it's very

put in the house like she has like the mirror that everyone has. She's just like a chewy millennial like

Yeah. It is very millennial and like this the women in this group are a bit older and they don't speak millennial jargon, you know. uh you violated like very when she when Kyle said it's getting crystal like she was right you know being so sensitive and like you can't even have a confrontation because like immediately oh you verbally accosted

but even with the like even outside of her presence on the show as like an instigator or like a housewife just her being selected was wrong and I feel like she came in so insecure who wouldn't like she Rachel Zo didn't come in insecure Kathy Hilton didn't come in insecure

getting insecure I was like just like the way she kept talking about her bags and and the one uping that's like an insecure thing because she's so out of her league. So, I really did feel bad for her and I don't even dislike her so much as much as I really feel bad for her because it's mean that they casted her on the show. Sorry, it is. And she's clearly dealing with this terrible thing that happened to her and there's no right. And Bose is right and Bose is saying the thing that everyone's thinking. It's like, you know, you can't use something difficult that you went through as a defense in a fight. Like, but that's exactly what she's doing.

It's very amateur. It's very immature. I don't even dislike her. I feel really bad for her. And what she did to Dar in that conversation was so wrong because if you are that fragile, you were talking with your husband doing Glam preparing for a conversation. So, you just sort of threw it as a defense and there's nothing anyone can say and it's just sort of like a conversation ender and I feel bad for her because um it's so horrible.

It's so horrible and and there's no right way to deal with it. She's doing it the wrong way, but there is no right way to No. Well, I you shouldn't have come.

She shouldn't have come, but then she was saying like her husband said she should be amongst friends. And I agree with that. But these aren't her friends. Like these are her co-workers. It's a work event. We're here to sit at a table and argue. And if you're not in a position to do that, which you're not, and you should understand, and like nobody blames you, then it then yeah, I guess be at home. But I I was disappointed in Tariq that she didn't just immediately drop it.

Um cuz there is nothing you can say and nothing you should say. Amanda did then continue, but she never should have.

So, I didn't get that until this most recent episode. They played like a replay that where it did seem different where she like said

she continued on and then Dar was like, "Wait, I thought we weren't continuing." But before that, Darede had brought it back.

Yeah. It's an impossible It's an impossible situation for Dar. I don't even think Dar handled it wrong or whatever. It was so weird.

Yeah. I felt so bad. It was just awful. She's not built for this life. Um, I really feel like she thinks that she is.

She ain't in her own way. Like, she has her boundaries and she wants to bring them to this group of women.

Good luck. Housewives are not good with boundaries. Like, that's the point of the show.

She was in the car rolling calls with Rachel, Zo, and Erica. Yeah, that was really, really cringe.

Yeah. Um, and I have to say something about Erica, and I only came to this realization recently because she was always like glam Amazon, right? She brought her glam team everywhere. She really upped the game for a lot of the women. Um, and it was easy to do that. It's easy to have like amazing glam, amazing hair, amazing style when you have unlimited money. And she's had this, you know, enormous fall from grace in terms of like her finances and she lives in this little house. And it's such a testament to her true sense of style and taste. How like she has not faltered in her looks one bit. She's maybe wearing like less designers, but like who even knows? She is so glamorous. She's so kills it with her style. And I feel like it's a real testament cuz a lot of these women like it's it's not her

and you can buy good style stylist makeup, but you can tell like she's so invested in her and she's really she just crushes it. I feel like she doesn't get enough credit for like she didn't miss a beat moving from the big house to the little house like with the glam. She always showed up. Yeah.

I love that. She's really one of my favorites. She does play both sides of Darede Kyle

and it's clear that she's closer with Kyle and I don't know if Dar knows that. Oh, you think so?

Because Kyle was the only one who knew about her boyfriend. I felt like last season she plays Osai, but I felt like she was more sympathetic and closer to Dar, but like she is not going there. And so that's just how I feel like she is more with Dar.

No, I think she's more with Kyle and it's like annoying me. Kyle's like doing the same thing she did last season with like the PK thing, memes and jokes. Um

like still defending him. Well, PK is maybe he isn't. Yeah, it's so But I also feel like the one bit that they shared that like Mo said that Dar won't let PK see the kids and they're saying, "Oh, that's not what Dar said." To me, that jives exactly with what Dar said. PK see the kids at these times that he wants because that doesn't work for their schedule for 6 weeks.

The only thing that could be more disruptive to their lives is if their lives are disrupted even more. Like

1,000%. I think they're both saying this the same the truth. You just want to come because you've been gone for 6 weeks. like, "No, you can't see them." So, she is allowed to say that. And yeah, I'm not allowed to see my kids. Well, maybe if you were home.

Yeah. No. Or like, "No, you can't see them during the school day. You can't see them during their after schools." You know, Phoenix is an amazing ballerina. She's

Marie was making me cry when she was talking about how Jagger's just like this walks around with the weight of the world on his shoulders.

It was And then and then Kyle's like, "Well, maybe he does, maybe he doesn't." I like Kyle's so not a girls girl. And I feel like when you get to I feel like Kyle is so hung up on Mauricio. And Mauricio was obviously team PK and so like Kyle just like wants to be in Mauricio's good graces and be like Dar said like and it's just so lame. It's so not cool. And like girls I'm not even a girl girl but like when a girl's getting divor I keep saying girls they're these 50-year-old women when a woman's getting divorced like and you can tell when a man like she's saying very much like Roger lips like the guy you knew is no longer there. That's so what's happening with BK is clearly having a midlife crisis. He's making out with young women in the street. Um he's not paying the mortgage.

That's not like the side that you're going to be on. Like I don't have to even know the ins and outs. And when Dar said he could come and oh the kids are going here and he hasn't seen them in weeks, I don't have to know all the ins and outs to know that like Dar's the one taking care of and is going to do what's in the kids' best interest.

And how wonderful that she has her parents still. Like I've when I was seeing that I was like that's so amazing and that and that I was getting like so emotional when Jagger was like not even yearning for his father but yearning for Dar's father.

Yeah, she's the bad parent. Please. I just Kyle's really pissing me off. Yeah, I still ship greed and mo of course. I'm so glad Bose let it go, but in the first couple of episodes when she was likeounding Kyle to like talk about why she's not dating, it's like I actually don't care. And you're being like a little like a badger. Bose is my favorite housewife on this show.

She's the only one. Her confessionals are hysterical. I love her friend Summer. Like, yeah, bring your random friend Summer everywhere.

I love it. I love it. Zach was watching me. He's like, "Who's that?" I'm like, "It's home."

What do you mean it's summer? Like when everyone brings a friend, it's like Fay Resnik or this is Summer from Oklahoma. I love it. I love it. And her her story was really crazy how she lost custody of her kids for two years because she had an evil husband who was a lawyer.

Yeah. So, you know what? Yes. Actually, come summer. Yeah. And then like Summer's at the birthday dinner.

Good. And I was thinking when everyone's at the birthday dinner, these women are actually getting along so well. There's tension between Jared and Kyle. Sure, but like they have history and they're friends and whatever. And it's like if it weren't for Amanda, this would just be a group of women having the best time.

Yeah. No. So, a character like Amanda is kind of unnecessary, but I feel really sad for her. Um, like she makes me butt clench and cringe, of course, yada yada, but she's so out of her depth and she's I feel like she's been aware of it since this that's why she's like stunted on the phone with the calls and showing up. Oh, is my Oh, my backpack Chanel like

Oh, that's so funny. It didn't read to me like that. I felt like she's very confident, very affected and like pompous almost. Oh, no.

And not in a way that so insecure like maybe it all stems from that. the toughest group of women and it takes someone like Rachel Zo just to come in as an equal as a peer. She's not and she's younger like it's just all of it.

But she's living in Kyle's house and Kyle was on the show for Yeah. 10 years in that house.

Devastating. That was really sad to watch Kyle get emotional over the house which it was very emotional. Like those were the happiest years

of course. And you know what? I know it sounded crazy but I kind of hear her like if they didn't move out of this that house cuz that is like sort of when things started to break down and they were in this like new league. Like it was always cool how like they had increasingly more and more money every season and they never left that house. It was like their family home. It was very grounding.

It was a very happy house. Yeah. I kind of think maybe they wouldn't have ended up where they ended up.

What was also sad to me is like Mauricio is so moved on and he was so unaffected by the house

and like when she's crying and we all know why she's crying and he's like, "Oh, because the girls are getting married." Like he's trying to like voice it on the girls.

He's trying to make it about like oh they were little and now they're big. It's just something everybody goes through. You have that conversation if they were still married. That's not what it was about. He doesn't even want to go beneath that surface with her because

he not that he doesn't care, but he he's not there. He's not there. And that's what she was saying when they take the family trips

and he's just like kind of like a wall. He's not going deep with her. I imagine it's a slippery slope. Although, we did just report that um over New Year's they were getting cozy and like I do desperately for Kyle's sake like it's very sad to watch. Even when he showed up at dinner, like she just yearns for him. So obviously and like acting like they're not filing for any reason other than that.

Yeah. But I also I don't feel like she's like in love with him still. Like she's hung up on him.

It's more like that former life. Yeah. And it's like then what's next? If they do divorce, then what's next? As opposed to just like holding on to like that life which brought her so much joy.

I really liked the speed dating event. Um that was hysterical. And the fact that they all kept showing up in funeral outfits was making me laugh so hard. That was a really fun thing. Um, and I want to talk about Sutton.

Okay. She's having this like rebirth and I actually I'm I'm down because she's like awful and I'm tabularasa. Like I'm good. I'm liking haircut.

It really bothered me that she was like letting Amanda get to her in um Sedona about Avi. Like the crying. It's like this. I feel like it empowered Amanda to like continue on with her annoying ways. Um and I really wish she like didn't but she's so emotional suddenly. She's always crying.

Yeah, the Jennifer Tilly thing was interesting too. I didn't really get like when they had that final dinner at the airport and everyone was like growling behind something. I'm like,

did I miss something? Like, why did she need all the support? Like, someone just brought up something.

I know. And she's handling like she wants people to stop talking about it. And she's her behavior is just sort of making me more and more intrigued. I literally didn't care that her assistant left like at all. But now she's like making it into such a big deal. I'm like, okay, well, what did happen?

I know. I wanted to She's handling it so backwards. like in order to like throw the scent off, just be like like lean in. But she's like, "So, we can't talk about it." Well, now I have to know.

Yeah, it was it was odd. Yeah. But yeah, she's not like a main character this season, which is

it's it's been a tough like she needs to take a back seat. Yeah. It It had been a lot.

Yeah. I mean, I hope my girl Bose gets pregnant by, you know, some way. Yeah. Key.

Bose and Keely. I love Bose. She's the voice of reason on the show. Yeah. and everybody loves her and it's like you really can come into this group as a new person and like they're they are like open to making new friends and

her and Bose is Dar new summer they're close. Yeah. Um but when Bose invited Dar to lunch with Amanda thinking like Amanda would have some good like practical find rich as [ __ ] like have some practical like business advice for a woman going through divorce retirement and she's all talking about manifesting. Oh my god I just about died. Like Bose is like, "Okay, thanks for coming."

I don't know what the future holds for Amanda. Yeah. I don't know. I feel like she can hold her own, but it's just like the girls have really written her off already. She's not their cup of tea, nor are they hers.

Yeah. Like just her being in the same room as Rachel Zo like and Kathy Hilton. I agree. It's a mismatch.

Yeah. And they're usually pretty good about casting. Why not Simon Fuller? Yeah.

Wife. Well, maybe. I mean, the thing is everything Amanda says really is like, you know,

polarizing a polar. Yeah, it's like a bomb. Like, I know that story about the happy ending massage was kind of crazy and then Bose being like, you couldn't have waterboarded that information out of me. Like obsessive Bose and I don't know this Natalie woman sounds interesting.

I'm like I I'm sure Cassing tested them both like just Amanda's just kind of delusional

which is and you that is a required trait for a housewife. It's true. It's a great season. I'm really enjoying Ben is obsessed. He's like we have more episodes. He is hooked.

And I love like Rachel Zo like talking [ __ ] about Amanda and all of her confessionals. It's very OG housewives. No one wants to do no one wants to be seen as a mean girl anymore so they don't do it. But Rachel's just coming on as who she is

and that's like why we all watch Housewives and it's like she said, you know, I don't ever really talk about like my accomplishments or like my accolades or whatever. So Amanda, like with the book, the book the book. Oh, and then the ghostriter comment. I thought retort was excellent. Oh, you must have had a lot of time. the Oh, no. We didn't buy the house. I bought the house.

I make in a month what he makes in a year. Her husband watching that vomiting. Yeah.

Vomiting. He didn't buy the house. I did. And Rachel's like, "Why? What did that contribute to the conversation?"

Just that you hate your husband. Just that you're putting him down. Like, for what?

And you keep like telling all these amazing stories about him, but all I know is that like, you know, according to you, he's some popper you pulled off the street.

Yeah. It's bad. Like, I'm watching that back like to them together. Yikes. Yeah.

Well, that's Housewives. That's your show. And fabulous Monday. Really, I feel like a huge weight. We just did so much.
