F U For That: Thursday, August 13th, 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. I sound amazing. Welcome back to the Toast and happy Thursday. Hope everybody's having a great latter half. Hey La Tert. Hey Ja Tert. Wearing the new necklace we bought yesterday. Yeah, we went shopping. Oh yes, you guys, yesterday we went to Hill House. Yes, we needed dresses, you know. We did. We needed some nap dresses and I think we had a stunning success. We found like a new version that we like. It was a major success. It was always like the Ellie nap dress. Which is like the classic. The classic. We love. We pretty much own every style so there's not much more to do in that category. And we found like another kind of dress that we also liked. It's a little different, like not to be crazy. It is a little different. It's a little different. So that was a great success. I got this new necklace. Yeah, okay. Tell me about your pearl necklace. I'll tell you about it. I just, you were saying on the show that, like, we're just buying jewelry. We are definitely, at least I can speak for myself, but I think I'm going to include you in that, even though, like, you're not even talking about how, like, skinny you're getting and it's, like, offensive. Well, that's because, like, no one's, like, said anything. You're just, like, you're dropping LBs like a postpartum woman should. I, like, just kind of skipped that part. No, I've definitely stalled this summer. No, I feel like you're just looking better and better every day. That's so sweet of you, but the scale begs to differ. It's been a plateau summer for me. Well, a plateau is a win. But, no, but also, like, I'm excited to go home because then I think it's going to accelerate. You know, like, sometimes you need a plateau in order to hit that slope again. Yes, but still, at this era in our lives, I do believe we should all be investing in jewelry. Yes, and so I saw this, like, cute necklace. Claudia was trying on dresses, so, of course, I was just, like, tinkering. And I'm so glad that I bought it because this morning, and it's good timing because we have two more shows left, including today, I have officially run out of things to wear. Like, it's. I ran out of things to wear, like, on week two. No, no, no, like, this morning, I genuinely had nothing to wear. And so this necklace makes the outfit a little different than however I wore the outfit last week. Some blue in my hair for the Teen Vogue party. It's some pearl in my neck for the Teen Vogue party. Jackie and I were just cracking up at a TikTok that I saw. If anyone has ever used Meta. It's very niche. Meta business suite. No, I actually think it's not that niche. I think a lot of people use Meta business suite. Like, for their businesses. For their businesses, or if you're, like, an influencer. It's literally, like, the worst thing ever, like, when a brand wants to work with you. And I saw the funniest tweet that was, like, daring Mark Zuckerberg to use Meta business suite. Seriously, that platform makes me want to die. Yeah. Die. No, when a brand has, like, a deliverable. They want to, like, list your content. A deliverable that has to do with Meta business suite. They're like, yeah, just add us as an advertiser on Meta business suite. Girl. Give us the code. Girl. The deal is over. Like, I can't. No, or, like, the deal will get done in six months when I figure it out. Yeah, or just. Or what about don't? And then things are further complicated. Are you complicated by the fact that we share a Facebook page? I don't want to talk about our shared Facebook page. It's horrible. I do feel like my life. I'm missing out on a small piece of life due to sharing a Facebook page. I agree. I was actually talking to my friends recently, because I was like, I feel like I don't know what anybody's up to anymore, because I don't have a Facebook. I have this, like, fake Facebook with Claudia. We don't, like, add friends. We have, like, four friends. I don't have any of, like, the friends of, like, Facebook. But then my friends told me. That they don't keep up with anyone on Facebook, right? Nobody's using Facebook. No, it's all, like, AI-generated content and, like, fake news. People don't. I thought people were posting, at least the big things, like pregnancy, birth, engagement. Like, you could know what someone's up to in their life. But they said, no, no one's doing that. Only parents are doing that. No, and, like, the way they keep up with people now is on Instagram. Yes. But, like, you have, like, regular people, like, from high school and stuff, like, they're private. So you have to, like, follow them. If you're not following them, you can't see. But it's not like people from high school are doing all this stuff that I don't know about. Like, no one's posting about it. But also, back in the day, like, friending people on Facebook was, like, a very loose thing. You would friend people who you barely. Maybe you had never even met. Like, following on Instagram is, like, a very strict. People are crazy about their ratios. So I can't keep up with people from, like, high school that I don't know. I was friends with them on Facebook. I'm not following them on Instagram. And it's a bummer because, like, I would love. Sometimes when I think of someone, I would love to be like, oh, she's Lucy Wyman now. Like, what's she up to? Yeah, no, then I have to, like, ask my high school chat. Can somebody go to her Instagram, screen record what's going on over there? Yeah. And so I guess that's, like, more normal. You know, we shouldn't know, like, what strangers are doing. We all should know less about each other. Yeah, especially, like, strangers that you're not close with. Like, you shouldn't know all their business. So I was glad to know I'm not missing out on that much. But, yeah, like, so many times I want to, like, message someone or, like, a. I don't know. There's just random shit that comes up on Facebook. And I, like, want to message and, you know, put myself out there. Oh, my God. And I was, like, you know, when, like. She wants to put herself out there, guys. Like, we're, like, a business. Sometimes you have to, like, Facebook message. But I think, like, our profile, like, looks like spam. Yeah, we have, like, this fake profile with actually six friends. And they all have our last name. So, like, I never get any responses. Do you reach out to people on Facebook ever? No, but, like, there's a couple times that I have. I don't really. Like, I've just. I've personally moved on from Facebook. I can't look back. Yeah. Like, so. Meta business suite. It's further complicated by the fact that we have this, like. Janky, fake, like, spam-looking Facebook called Jackie Claudia. Jackie Claudia. First name Jackie, last name Claudia. Exactly. You know, I started. I restarted Schitt's Creek just because, like, I was feeling, like. That's funny. Zach, put on your shirt. I put it on episode one the other night as well. I think it's because we're logged into Hulu. Oh, really? I'm watching it on HBO Max. Oh. I don't know why. I was just, like. I was watching Mad Men. Like, it's been the summer of Mad Men for me. But, like, it's kind of heavy. And, like. You can't watch it so much because. I feel like when people were watching it episodically, like, you couldn't really tell how much you fucking hated Dawn. And, like, when you watch episodes back-to-back, I can't watch a self-destructive person anymore. So, I was, like, I wanted to watch something light. I was, like, whatever. Schitt's Creek. I finished season one. Did you know or remember that there's a storyline that, like, Stevie and David are in love? Mm-hmm. Oh, I didn't remember that. Yeah. I feel like. To me, he's, like, as gay as the day is long. Like, in the show, he's, like, they're talking, like, are you. Do you like red wine or white wine? Like, talking about sexuality. He was, like, well, I like red wine. But, like, sometimes I like white wine. So, I guess he's, like, bisexual. But, I don't know. It just feels like a flaw in the show. And they're, like, hooking up. They're just friends with benefits. Yeah. They're hooking up. And then they're, like, we should probably stop because, like, we're such good friends. And, like, let's not ruin, like, the one friend that I have in this town. And Stevie's, like, really struggling with that because she likes him so much. Like, I'm sorry. In what fucking world? No. It does make sense. But I do think, like, eventually Patrick and, like, that storyline just became, like, the right. Of course. The right route for David. For David. And they started as business partners. And it was just, like, really, really cute. But I understand why in the beginning when it's, like, this is our cast, why. They tried to make it work. Why Stevie and David should explore something. Like, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No. It's so weird. Like, watching them kiss, I'm like, that's your brother. Like, it's just icky. It's such a good show. It is. Like, it's such a good show. The writing is perfect, of course. It's obviously. You watch it now with a little bit of a heavy heart because she's passed away. But it is an exercise in perfection. Like, if I'm an up-and-coming actress or comedian, like, I'm watching Catherine O'Hara and I'm taking notes. In the lee of a picturesque ridge lies a small, unpretentious winery. It's. She is the best part of the show. And if I had a gun with one bullet, I would kill Johnny. Like, he is the worst character. He is. It's such a good comfort show. Like, I feel like it's how I used to feel about, like, friends. Like, I know what's going to happen. I'm not. But it's just, like, background noise and it makes me chuckle. I love that for you. Highly recommend it. If you're, like. I get into these places where, like, I cannot watch new things. Like, I just need to be comforted by what's familiar. You just can't, like, take on more. I understand. I'm taking on a lot right now watching Let's Marry Harry. And I feel like come September, we're going to have to take on a lot. I don't know if you saw Traders was announced of the regular cast. The celebrity voice. Earl Meets World. Earl Meets World, Dancing with the Stars. So I'm actually just, like, I'm coasting until I have to do my homework in September. Well, I watched another episode of Let's Meet Harry. Let's Marry Harry. I was on Instagram watching spoilers, like. Let's Marry Hearts to Parish. Because the finale is last night. Oh, okay. I mean, I'm just watching. I think I know who wins because I saw, like, a photo. And then I didn't even recognize the girl in the photo. But now I think I know who it is. So, Harris, while he's saying all the right. I do have concerns about, like, his ability to get serious. Because, like, he still is, like. He can't help himself. That's who he is. But, like, he's doing some things that I'm like, you're not serious. And also, the show is a little too fast-paced. And he's living in a house with the girls. He has his, like, own room and whatever. But when he comes home from the date with a girl, they all get in the house. He goes and showers and changes. And then he comes downstairs and talks to more girls. Oh, that's weird. And it just doesn't give him enough time to, like, let things, like, ruminate. So he went on this date with this one girl who, like, I think was. So nasty. But only because she was, like, mean to my friend. The single mom. Oh, your friend. The girl that I met one time. Sammy, the single mom, who's just really sweet. And so he goes on this date with the girl. And it actually turns out amazing. And he comes home. And then he has to, like, shower and go back downstairs and talk to other people. And it's like, he said after the date with her, like, she's my number one right now. And, like, I just feel like he needs to go to bed with his thoughts. Right. It's true. Think about what he liked about her. I think what he liked so much was that for some reason they stumbled upon the conversation of his dad who just passed. I saw people talking about that. And I have this, like, kind of criticizing Harry's grief journey. Oh. Yeah. Why? Just people thinking that perhaps it was, like, the cattle. Like, he's not serious about getting married because, like, he just is, like, grieving. And they don't think he's grieving properly. And, like, maybe he rushed into this show and this process because he just sort of is, like, unbalanced and destabilized by this loss. Yeah. I think he's definitely lonely. I think, like, you know, when you lose people close to you, it makes you just feel alone in this world. And you definitely want to, like, supplement that loss with another. Am I remembering correctly. Like, you can pick your family by getting a wife. that Harry Jowsey's dad passed away. I think I talked about this on The Toast, right? He was talking about on a podcast. I forget. He's from a different country. Australia. They have assisted suicide, like, medically assisted suicide for people who are, like, terminally ill. It's, like, a rigorous process to, like, get approved. But if you want to, like, choose your own death, I'm pretty sure that's how Harry Jowsey. Dowsy's father passed away. It's possible. Yeah. He was talking about it. I found the conversation so interesting. He was also saying, like, I think he did a podcast episode with his dad before he passed. And it was, like, about. He chose medically assisted, dying in New Zealand following a terminal illness diagnosis. So he had, like, proper advice. They were talking about the podcast episode on the date that his dad was giving him advice. Like, or, like, what he would tell Harry's kids. But I do think, like, the passing of his dad, while it may not make him ready for marriage, it makes you want another, like, close person in your life, you know? Like, you lose a family member. Of course. And you can gain one through marriage. So I do think he's lonely. And I do think he wants something serious. And he's, like, done messing around. But, like, I don't know that he has what it takes to, like, pick out the right girl. And even this date with, like, Julianne and Sammy. Like, I just felt like he read it so wrong. It was, like, this stupid art date. I felt so bad for these girls. Because the other girls got a yacht. And they have to paint. Like, ugh. And Julianne and Sammy. Sammy is my friend. They were, like, fighting over Harry. And I just felt like Julianne kept copying everything Sammy was doing. Like, Sammy. Julianne, like, co-opted Harry. And Sammy was, like, I'm done. So Harry had to come over to her. And then Julianne walks over and pulls him back. And then Sammy. It's literally flavor of love. I'm sorry. It literally is. And then Sammy, like. The way you're describing it. When Harry comes back over to Sammy, she, like, writes his name in paint on his chest. Like, really cute. And then Julianne goes, I'm done. So Harry has to come back. Then she takes. That sounds terrible. I just want to say. She takes paint and she wipes over Sammy's name and writes her own name. She just keeps copying everything Sammy's doing. And then Harry was, like. Then he chose to spend extra time with Julianne for the one-on-one after the art date. By the way, there were two other girls there. Irrelevant. Sure. He chose to. And he was, like. I just really like the way Julianne was, like, fighting for me. And it was, like, very, like, sexy. How she just wants to spend all this time with me. I'm, like. She just copied the other girl. Yeah. But I also understand that, like. He knows he likes Sammy. And it's, like. Well, let me see if I like this girl so we can move on with the situation. You know. You do have to spend time with everyone. But it was, like, annoying. And so she got the best date. And he, like, opened up to her. And now he's his number one. And so I just think he needed, like, time to, like, go home and realize that she doesn't. He doesn't like her that much. It's just that they got deep. Yeah. Fast. And the other girl. The show sounds terrible. I just want to say. The other girls haven't had time to get deep. They're just having chats in the backyard. And I think if you don't have this, like, undying love for Harry, like, you happen to have. It just. It genuinely sounds terrible. People are loving it. Everyone told me I need to watch it. Like. Good. Good. When I said I was. Like. Let's marry Harry. Curious. Then everyone followed up in the DMs. Like, you have to watch it. It's so good. Yeah. And I'm also just thinking about the next iterations. Because you know what else works? If it's, like, an unwell production and they want to keep, like, the name flowing. Even though I don't think she's, like, looking for or ready for marriage. Let's marry Hallie. Let's marry Sally. Sally. From Southern Charm. I feel like she's ready to get married. Sally. Well, I guess she's best friends with Alex Earl. But that's Sally as well. Oh, that's Sally. But no. She's also not ready to get married. I guess Sally Carson. She says she's ready for marriage. Yeah. Everyone says it. Yeah. Everyone. Everyone says it. Nobody's got what it takes. So, that's the latest. The good news is the show is moving quickly. You know, five girls went home. I think we have eliminations, like, all the time. There's only 14 girls left. Lovely. But he's supposed to get married at the end of the show. Well, I saw, like, on Instagram. There's a wedding. There was a wedding. Yeah. And I won't spoil it. But I do. And Amanda Kloots officiated it. I know you love when celebrities officiate weddings. I don't like when. Like, literally, I only want a leader in your community. Like, a religious leader. A community. A community leader. Yeah. What about a parent? Nope. Jackie's very strict about when it comes to officiating weddings. Yeah. I don't want to see. I saw that Acquired's friend officiated her wedding. So, that's, like, the only thing. It's, like, the first negative thing you've seen. The only negative thing I've seen. Did you see her sister's speech? I did. Oh, my God. I was crying before it started. I was very emotional. I agree. And how does she have so much risk? And she was very. She didn't say, like. And she barely looked at her paper. And I just want to say to everyone who's ever going to make a speech at a wedding, like, if you come up there with your fucking phone, to me, you could be giving, like, a speech written by Shakespeare, and it's a piece of garbage. Paper is so elegant. I completely agree. It's so old school. When someone comes up with a phone, I'm like, you hate the bride. I thought the speech was, like, so. Well, first of all, I was just emo. I was just thinking about this twindom. And I guess they're each other's only sibling. That's the vibe I'm getting. Oh, are they? Okay. And I feel bad if there's another. Okay. And just the way she, like, said her speech. Mm-hmm. It was just, like, a bunch of, like. She wasn't, like, overly emotional. No, and she wasn't, like, telling a story. It was just, like, a bunch of one-liners. I mean, it was very cool. She had, like, so much confidence. And Riz, really. Do you know, also, one more negative thing that I heard about the wedding. Her dress was Balenciaga, the maid of honor. I heard that. I skipped right over. And I didn't see, like, those girls could fit into any dress. They could afford any dress. It's like, we're really wearing Balenciaga. Listen. But you know what? In a situation like that, like, the best dress wins. Mm-hmm. Right? Like, why should I suffer because you're a pedophile? I haven't seen her, like, advertise that, you know? Yeah, I saw her say it once, and that was the first time. It's not, like, Balenciaga. Like, Vera Wang, Vera Wang, Vera Wang, Vera Wang. Right. Not Balenciaga. Vera Wang gang. Vera Wang gang for Mrs. Acquired and Acquired Incorporated. I just love those sisters. I really love them. Me too. And I feel like I've been sleeping on them until recently. Well, they were kind of, like, sleeper content creators, too. Like, they have been in the New York City influencer scene for a while. They were not the biggest. I feel like they were just, like, one of, you know, there's, like, a group of New York City influencers. They all look the same, dress the same, do the same content. That was the whole thing. Yeah, and you know that girl, like, she had valid points. Like, they all just, like, drink coffee and do matcha workouts or whatever. And I feel like she woke up, and she was like, I'm going to step my pussy up. And she literally did, and she brought her sister with her, and she just, like, makes better content. She dresses better. Like, she has a better editor. Like, everything. She just decided, like, I'm going to put these bitches on notice. Yeah. And she is, in my opinion, like, the number one premier New York City influencer. Yes. Also, I remember. And she literally left them all in the dust. I remember when her sister was working a corporate job. Working at Goldman Sachs. Yeah, one of them, yeah. And Bridget, and I never call her Bridget, but in this case, I have to because, like, there's two Acquired. So Bridget used to make videos of, like, my sister going to work. They, like, lived together, and she made all those videos of her sister's outfits, like, going to her corporate job. And she looked amazing. Well, that's also then how the sister, of course, like, she came up with Acquired. But the sister really started her own thing because she was this, like, drop-dead gorgeous bombshell working at Goldman Sachs. And just making TikToks in the morning, never at the office, just of, like, what I'm wearing to the corporate office today, which I think actually a lot of people come to social media looking for, like, workplace outfit inspo. She eventually, like, started getting a lot of brand deals, and it was, you know, time for her to leave her job at Goldman Sachs. I heard that she had to leave. You can't do both, yeah. I don't know where I heard that, but I remember thinking, like, oh, she works at Goldman Sachs. She should stay doing that and stay, like, being an influencer. Of course, but you're not allowed. In most finance jobs, you are not allowed to make content, like, about your job at your office. And then sometimes they'll go even further, like, you can't do any content. Like, because I think it's, like, a conflict with certain clients. I don't know. Okay, fine. So she had to make a decision. I guess it worked out for her. I feel like she made the right one. Yeah. So, yeah, the speech was great. It was so sweet. I'm loving, like, all the videos. They're making, like, also, like, great content from the wedding when she gave her a kiss on the cheek. Hilarious. Yeah, she had lipstick on her cheek the entire ceremony. And, like, Acquired was like, should I keep posting or is it too much? Girl. Seriously, dump it now. I don't want to see content into three weeks from now. I want, I'm having the itch for it now. I've got the taste. I would say, there's not, no stitching is too much. I'm loving every minute. Oh, I got more breakfast potatoes this morning. I just wanted to tell everyone, like, about my potato journey. Would you like some? Um, I had. Look how good. Like. But I literally just had. ASMR. With my eggs. No. I don't think anybody. It literally tastes like McDonald's. It's, they're so good. I can't believe I've never been eating hash browns. They're from Goldberg's, by the way. We're not going to be eating. It's, like, a local spot. But, like, I want to say, I don't think that they make these themselves. At the other Goldberg's? Okay, why don't you break in and see what they have? And I'm going to get them for my house. I can't believe, like, I've never had hash browns before. No, hash browns are so good. Because so many times when you go to a diner in the city and you get, like, hash browns or whatever, it's just, like, stringy-ass potatoes. I do also like, like, that pancake type of. Oh, my God. Hate. I like. Like, to me, that's the most, it's offensive. Sometimes when, like, I make, like, breakfast on the weekends. Well, I always make eggs and sourdough, but, like, sometimes, once in a while, I'll make hash browns. Shout out for the comments. Like, what's a brand of, like, frozen that I could just, like, pop in the air fryer or whatever? Whatever people like, you're not going to like. Oh, really? Like, what's, like. No. People like weird stuff, and you're not. No, no. I feel like this is so. You guys know what I'm talking about. Like, the square potatoes. Yeah. Yeah. What's the brand? Sound off in the comments. So, yes. So, yes. Let's marry hearts. I am engaging. Hearts. Hearts. And, yeah, we went to Hill House yesterday. I guess that's, like, the headline news. Yeah, we had, like, a big shopping day. It's, like, not a big deal, you know? Mm-hmm. Got a couple of cute tings. I got this little hairbrush that I'm going to use, too. Yeah, Jackie was just, like, buying stuff, like, because she is a grown woman, like, with adult money. And she was like, yeah, sure. She's like, you want a hairbrush? I'm like, no, I'm like, I think Kayla needs a new dress. Yeah, we were just, like, what Jackie was. I just love shopping. Like, seriously, I just love it. Do you feel that way about shopping? No. Like, a love? I just want to buy stuff. Oh, my God, no. I just want to buy. I feel that way maybe in, like, a supermarket. But, no, I really do not love shopping. Like, when I got home and I saw, I bought this hairbrush, I was like, why did I buy that? I don't need a hairbrush. Now I have to use it. Maybe it's because, like, I'm in a phase where, like, I hate my body. But I'm trying to think, like, even when I was snatched, like, did I love shopping? No. I like looking good, of course. And, like, I love loving my outfit. Uh-huh. I don't really, like, want to put in the work to get there, though. So I'll just, like, remain a slob. I understand. I don't know. It's just, like, it's such a high for me. That's, it's so important to have hobbies. I need to, like, go shopping. Like, be able to buy anything I want. And then, like, somebody later that day goes and returns everything. Because it's not even about the having. It's just about the getting. Yes. Yes. It's not about, it's not about the having. It's about the acquiring. Because then I come home with all this shit. I'm like, what did I do? I know. And that's the thing about shopping. It's like, then I have to put that shit away. I don't even want to put it away. Right. Like, I don't need, I didn't need that. The hangers and the clip, the tags. And I didn't need it. Like, so that's what I should do. Yeah. Shop till I drop and then someone, like, secretly returns it. Like, zero service, like, goes into your car and takes the bags. I love that. Okay. Well, without further ado-do-do-do-do, it is time for the Fast Size Stories at Yerati. You do need to know. And we're so excited. We have a brand new sponsor.

Our first story. Alex Cooper is pushing for a new business. He's pushing back on Dave Portnoy's claim that she planned a sexual harassment allegation to exit Barstool. So a little back story. By the way, I knew none of this. Did you? I did. It was familiar, yes. Oh my god, that's crazy. Dave, like, said this, kind of made quite a large allegation against Alex Cooper in his book, which just came out. It was like a New York Times bestseller. Yes. It came out in June. And he had said when he was recapping the Call Her Daddy saga from his POV, he said that the girls had said that if Dave didn't let them out of their contract, they were going to allege. That they were sexually harassed at Barstool. Like, they'll make up assault claims. Yes. And I just want to say, like, if you knew those two bitches at the time, like, if you were following their podcast or their YouTube, like, they were crazy. Like, that is 1,000% something that they would have said. Like, they were very crass. You know Alex now. She's, like, very woke, buttoned up. Oh my god, those two bitches were insane. Yes. I think the idea that, like, someone like Alex Cooper, who we now know, would ever do something like this is, like, preposterous. No, it's, like, very on brand with them. Those two crazy bitches. Yeah, they were wilding out. Wild. And also, if you think about, like, Barstool's reputation to its detractors, people would have believed that. Yes. And them being, like, this, like, biggest female podcast. And then allegations. People would have eaten it up. Yeah. No, it's honestly, like, a kind of a good threat, like, if you think about it. Because it would have been believable at the time. So she went on CNBC to talk about her big deal. She's doing press for this investment we talked about yesterday. This $500 million from Patrick Whitesell, former Mr. Lauren Sanchez Bezos, and, by the way, his company's called WTSL. Whitesell. Yeah. Obsessed. Like Whitesell. I'm obsessed. Whitesell. I love when people drop the consonants. Like your husband. He goes by Zwinrub. Zwinrub. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Zwinrub. I love it. So Andrew Ross Sorkin was the interviewer. Oh, and slay to this random CNBC. I don't think he's so random. Well, I think he's maybe, like, well-known and respected in, like, the finance investment space. Like, I never heard of his show. He does, like, those interviews for the New York Times, I think. I've never heard of him. And, like, is he brothers with him? Is he brothers with Aaron? No way. Are you sure? Oh, I don't know. But, like, that would be crazy. I think that he is. I just want to say, I like when people, like, ask real questions. I didn't know this was something we were waiting to hear from Alex Cooper on. Because, again, I did not know that this was a thing. I had not heard this until yesterday. And they're not related. I'm shocked. She's coming on for completely unrelated purposes. Despite they have the same last name, and they both grew up in Scarsdale. Oh, that is weird. Yeah. She's coming on for completely unrelated purposes, and he pulls this out of his, like, back pocket. I'm obsessed. Like, these are the types of questions, like, you want to ask. You want your journalists to ask. So, Andrew Ross Sorkin brought up the claim that Dave made and asked her, you know, if that's true. And she said, I've been pregnant, Andrew. I'm busy building a child. When he asked why she hadn't addressed the claim sooner. She continued, whenever I see Dave online, we all enjoy his banter. He's a very entertaining person, and I have a very great and complicated relationship with Dave. He gave me my start in this industry, and I will never not be grateful to him. Oh, and by the way, Patrick Weissel is just sitting there. - Was it Patrick? I thought it was the husband. - No, I think it was Patrick. I saw him there too. - No, I think it was Matt Kaplan. Really? Yeah, I haven't seen Patrick. That makes it better. I didn't see them out and about with Patrick. I saw Patrick doing an interview with Alex. Oh, okay. But perhaps you're right. Sorry, you guys. As she went on, she admitted that she has not read Dave's book yet, but she pushed back on his account. She said, that's not how I remember it at all. Still, she didn't outright deny Dave's claim. She added, but I'm also like, Dave's got his version and I've got my version and we're all good. When she was asked by Aaron if she wanted to tell her version of the drama, she laughed and responded, no. I am in my mother era. I'm no drama right now, Andrew. We're here to talk business. 1,000% she said it. That was basically an admission of guilt. I appreciate that she didn't lie. No, that's actually very true. I'm just trying to see. There's someone sitting next to her. It doesn't matter, but she was doing interviews with Patrick. I just saw he was talking about the creator economy. Sorry, I lost my train of thought. My one criticism here is like, I do feel that when you're talking about the creator economy, you're pregnant, like you get special treatment. Sorry, you do. But like, she's like literally like throwing her pregnancy like, like in front of the bus. Like, I didn't like her response in that way. Although I do feel that pregnant women get a little bit of like protection. Like, she shouldn't have had to answer that question. Like, it was asked, you're doing press. Like, especially in the last couple of months, there's been like, I feel like she doesn't really ever do press. Like, sit down, interview, live style. No, she does like business stuff like this. Business stuff and it's all like, it's fluff. Like, number one female podcaster. But this is like a lot. Like, live interview, you can go kind of rogue. And I feel like for all the times for her to do it, like, this is not the time she's, this is the first time ever in her career where she's had like, skeletons and like people, like questions you would want to avoid. So I'm surprised. But I guess going on CNBC, like, they're not going to really ask about. Sophia. And like the tea with Alex Earle. You would think, yeah. But like, this is a semi, a business conversation to talk about like how you left your former employer. I just felt like when she was asked, it felt like she was, the way, I didn't see the rest of the interview, but the way she answered, it felt like she was so inconvenienced to be there. Like, Andrew, why am I talking to you? I'm like, you went on to this show. So I appreciate that she didn't lie. I would love to hear from Sophia because I feel like Sophia would be honest. Would own it. It is my personal belief that they 1000% said that. Also, when you write a book that's published by like a major publishing house, the legal team like does have to go over it with you extensively. Like, if you are going to be making claims, that's why a lot of people like say unnamed, like, you know, Jeanette McCurdy said the producer. Like, a lot of times you have to like, So for him to have said like, they said this on this day makes me think that it's sort of like irrefutable. Yeah, or that he has something to back that up. Right. I do believe that they 1000% said that. And then I just have to like mention, because when she said this, it was the first thing that came to mind when she said, you know, she's in her mother era and she wants no drama. She did start the Alex Earl drama in her mother era and brought on like the greatest drama of all time. It's a conflict. She's conflicting. So so that's just not true in in my head. But, you know, she doesn't want to answer the question. No, of course not. Who would? And she has a good excuse, you know, because really, what are you going to say? Even though Andrew did follow up? And I think Andrew is very, like, persistent and prestigious in his field. So he doesn't have to be afraid. No, like, I can't ask this. Respectful. Like, I think sometimes when you're asking like a salacious question, it's sort of like a gotcha. Like, I also feel like sometimes when you ask your salacious question, like you get scared and then you don't follow up. You just like, I got it out. Yeah, right. But then when he followed up and said, do you want to? Tell us your version. She was like, I don't, Andrew. Yeah. I mean, I guess like to be brought down into this like Internet drama when she's like she keeps trying to elevate out of like. However. She tried to elevate out of Barstool. This is not Internet drama. This is business drama. Like David would be on CNBC himself. Like she like doesn't want to go there with Dave. Like, no, she does not want to cross. Neither of them want to cross each other. Right. Although him putting that in the book is like, well, he wants to tell his story and sell his book. And he doesn't need to protect her. But he also doesn't mean. He doesn't mean to make an enemy of her. And I feel she feels the exact same about him. As she said, she has a great and complicated relationship with him. Yeah. I mean, her. It just sort of like goes against the image she's trying to build for herself and has been trying for all these years as like this, you know, female savior. But it's like Barstool is sort of like the polar opposite of everything. Call her daddy has become color. Daddy's like very mainstream, very like female focus. It's kind of woke like and Barstool is just like the total opposite. So it doesn't really like make sense for her anymore to like be friends with Dave and like have Dave on the pod. You know, I don't think he's been on the pod in a while. No. And I actually think that their relationship is the most fractured it's ever been. But it's not there yet. The time for him to go on the pod would have been to promote this book. And he didn't. Yeah. Well, that would be like a weird place because he's talking about her in the book. It wouldn't. It wouldn't. Yeah. And so there's definitely like, you know, they walk on eggshells a little bit. Yeah. But neither one of them wants to like start stuff. No. Even the way Dave was doing. Like. He was like tea by the sea about Alex V. Alex. Like he was not going there. He was not going there. And he wasn't really turning on either one of them. I think it's time for Sophia to chime in. I know. I know. She's probably just like waiting for her book to like speak for itself. And I get wanting to like push everything to that. But she kind of needs to speak up. Yeah. Because I feel like she would cop to it. One thousand percent. Like this. You guys. There's not even a question to me of whether or not they said it. Like they obviously did. They were so nutty. They were. They were so young. And I think like. It's like. People can change. We actually have a story. Of course. At the end of the show about Whitney Leavitt. And I was just thinking about it. I don't know why. Like how she was like the Neku dancing mom. She was the Neku dancing mom. Yeah. And now she is like the most prestigious Broadway actress. And like people can change. And so I have no issue with Alex having been one person at Barstool. And growing up and becoming a different person. It's just this is like a new bit of information that she has to answer for from that time. When like I do think for the most part she's distanced herself and you know said how she's grown and she's not like. I don't like that anymore. But now it's like. Yeah. You got to go back there. Is when she left Barstool. Like nobody really questioned her. And so she was able to like successfully transition to this girl boss. And now you guys are all asking her questions about five years ago. And it's like I hate when people do that. But it's like nobody asked at the time. At the time. Like they just sort of let her get by. Yeah. Like throwing her friend under the bus. Yeah. Shooting her friend in the back. Like. And so now yeah all these things are coming up. And it's like not convenient because she has moved on. And she is pregnant. It's like not relevant. But nobody was really questioning her at the time. So it's like well somebody needs to ask at some point. But like now is not really the time. Yeah. But she's on the show. Right. And the book just came out. Right. And if you don't want to answer questions. Don't do live interviews. Don't do a live interview right now. And do I understand like not wanting to bring on drama in your pregnancy. She's also I think in her third. I don't know. Late second trimester. Because she's traveling. She has gestational diabetes. Yeah. You do not want stress. So I understand when she says like I'm not courting drama right now. Like I. I hear. I agree. I'm keeping it light. And I'm keeping it moving. Agreed. And I'm taking it. I'm taking the dog. However. You courted drama. You courted drama back. Like you did start this whole thing. But that was before the pregnancy ramped up. So you know things change. And she does have GD. And that's very difficult. Truly. I know because Dana had it. So. If you want me to make you a loaf of sourdough Alex I would love to. Yeah. Fun fact. You can have sourdough. Dana lived off my sourdough. It's the only thing you can eat. You can't even eat fruit. I'll give you some of my starter. And my recipe that I just wrote down. She would love that. I would love that. Yeah. And she would love that. So yeah. I thought that was interesting. Next story. A little biz news. Lake and sports news. The Lakers have been sold to ex-Disney chief Bob Iger and Karlie Kloss' husband Josh Kushner for a record-breaking $12 billion. Actually lots of sports news. I don't know if you saw also yesterday the Yankees like sold to private equity. It's like the first time private equity has like been involved in the. What's private equity? I don't know. People were like saying it's a big deal because like private equity. Is that a company? Or. No private equity is like an industry. Right. It's sold to an industry. No but it's sold to like. A private equity firm? A big firm in the industry. Quote sold to private equity. Yeah. Whatever that means. Well. Who was the guy who owned the Lakers who had the girlfriend Donald Sterling? Do you remember him? And they did that like really crazy interview. He was like this 80 year old man and she was like 25. And it was just like. Like there was a time where you couldn't open a newspaper or magazine without it being all about Donald Sterling. And that was like one of the better times of my personal life. It sounds familiar. Right. Yeah. But an ownership group led by Josh Kushner and Bob Iger is purchasing the franchise for the L.A. Lakers. For over 12 billion dollars ESPN reported. The news comes less than a year after Mark Walter bought the team from the Buss family for then 10 billion dollars. So very profitable for Mr. Walter. It's also crazy that like at one point one singular. I feel like now we hear a lot about groups buying teams because they're getting so expensive. But like to be a singular family to own. Like that's such a slay. It is. And a great investment. Yeah of course. Bob and Josh said in a statement. As lifelong NBA fans. Is Jared not there too? I saw the picture. Like he was there too. In just the picture. I'm not seeing anything about Jared. Oh okay. Yeah. Not seeing anything about him in this deal. As lifelong NBA fans we are deeply honored for the opportunity to become stewards of the L.A. Lakers. One of the most iconic sports franchises in the world. We have immense respect for the leadership and vision of Jerry and Jeannie Buss. I guess they're also staying on as like governor of the team. The Buss? I saw something that said like Jeannie Buss will stay on as governor. Slay Jeannie. Our long term commitment is to build on that foundation, compete at the highest level and serve the situation. It's an extraordinary team. It's fans in the city of L.A. Great. What do you think is the most, I feel like we've had this conversation before I'm having deja vu, the most valuable sports team in America? Because I remember you saying you think it was the Dallas Cowboys. Yes. But I don't know if that was just NFL. But what do you think is more valuable? A football team or a basketball team? I feel like football. Because the stadiums are bigger. But there's so many less games. But like yeah I do. So then it would be the Cowboys. What is the most valuable sports team in America? Question mark. Any league. It might be the Lakers right now because they were just valued at 12. Right. Oh wait. Dallas Cowboys? was valuable that's insane they stink why um so oh yeah they're saying 13 bill for the cowboys for the cowboys this forbes list has not been updated because number two was 11 billion for the golden state warriors i guess now lakers are number two or before that they were 10 warriors are worth more now or golden state warriors why are the cowboys so valuable again why are you asking me you're like the chat doesn't have it there okay wait but let me just say so it goes number one is an nfl team it's mostly nfl or nba there's not one nhl team i stand by what i said earlier in the week that the nhl is not mainstream um just football and basketball oh no i'm sorry tied for because i thought the yankees tied for 10th place is the chicago bears which is nfl with the new york yankees okay which is 8.2 billion and the baseball has a lot of games and still not as valuable i know one thing about me like i would never want to be a baseball player you're never home you have more games than any other league but you do get paid i think it's a good thing more than others but i don't know why i have the impression like baseball players like have happy lives and marriages and families oh i don't have that vibe at all really like i think there are definitely like happy people i'm not saying that but like i think that if you're like a wag and you're a baseball wag like you're jealous of the football and basketball actually basketball a lot of games maybe you have a hard schedule like a lot of them are married a lot of them are married and stay married and yeah there's not as much drama like nfl the nba is so much i think that like there is but it's again it's like not but when i think about like the celebrity baseball relationships there are a couple who kate upton kate upton joanna garcia swisher your friend pete and his wife of course haley beautiful life um um jeter hannah jeter hannah jeter um i believe that although a lot of those relationships happened after like derrick and hannah jeter were after that's the only one yeah kate upton yes she went to the world series i think that um jesse james decker's sister sydney's husband jessie james decker's sister sydney's husband was a baseball player also baseball teams are really big like there are a lot of like random unknown players like you'll yeah you can hire somebody in the league like you've never heard of their husband you know in the league of a picturesque ridge lies a small unpretentious winery yeah um yeah so if i had it my way i would i mean you have to deal with like the cte and like having like like a brain dead husband but football i think is like the most flex yeah like it's no what is it 18 games you have to consider cte so i absolutely have to consider cte same with hockey like and then your man comes home without a tooth like what about gacaba i think it has to be basketball but basketball's 82 games okay like good your man's working he's out it's important for men to have hobbies it's important for them to get out of the house a thousand percent and i guess like 40 of those games maybe that's why baseball is so successful yeah because it's like over a hundred they're always working like they don't have time to yeah to be bored i don't this is the devil's workshop it's true never forget it i can't like sit next to you to a box of potatoes and not eat them i'm sorry i know i'm breaking like the cardinal rule of eating i'll read the story and you eat how's that hargy our next source we could finally get through the story is some more sports news travis kelsey is calling the wedding night the best night of his life so we haven't got photos or nothing yet but travis kelsey did a little press conference which isn't like a big deal because that's what players do and they're not like training camp yeah you always like sit and like talk to the press um and he had a couple of like cute sound bites he obviously called tailors and he was like oh his wife at one point because she is um he said it was a fun off season man wedding was the best night of my life and i appreciate everybody who came out and celebrated and had fun with us kelsey said it was a crazy night and that the evening was full of a lot of celebration before telling reporters he's now turning his focus to quote football baby well you better because you need to make the playoffs last year um so cute like that's your wife um allegedly because we've never seen a picture he also talked extensively about how like it was literally his dream he can't believe he got married at madison square garden like the history of football there like it just meant so much him obviously he said they were looking for somewhere really private like he's so grateful to everybody who let him do it there but like it was so special for him to be there because like his dream was to go to a knicks playoff game taylor ended up going um but they did go to a knicks playoff game i think a lot of people thought that they were there like to support the cleveland cavaliers because they're from cleveland but kind of in the sense now that like they were there for the knicks perhaps because he said like i've always wanted to go to a knicks playoff game i think they were probably there for the clevelands because he is from there and knicks fans couldn't sit courtside even though they were there for the knicks because they were there for the clevelands because they were there for the clevelands because they weren't dressed as knicks fans and they could have if they wanted to well i guess they're not public knicks fans you know like timothy could never stick courtside even if he didn't wear knicks taylor like kind of is like she's starkly been like no but i think they just assume because of travis like they're safe right right no they got in like through a back door yeah but no that is that is true and cool because even though like he's obviously a football player you know a lot of men and young men and boys like they love sports growing up right you know so like madison square garden is still super cool mecca of sports even if you're a football player right and you think of all the things that have happened there besides football like boxing muhammad ali like it's it's kind of like us getting married at like like wisteria

markle suffers an awkward exchange with david foster in a viral video so megan markle attended the 40th anniversary gala for the david foster foundation in victoria just magical in victoria canada on friday and footage circling on social media the duke and duchess of sussex both greeted david on the red carpet megan even reached out her arm to him arm to him but david walked straight past her um and then before david and katherine and megan and harry like took a group photo we know that they're all good like they've actually been like long-time friends when i feel like the first time we ever spotted them out when megan and harry came to calabasas or wherever they live montecito and we were like who are they gonna be friends with like the kardashians ellen like the first time they were ever seen with anyone it was like david and katherine foster um i do believe that there's like no bad blood the video is just like genuinely unfortunate and sad the thing is like she just seriously can't catch a break like it's so awkward and i don't think there's i don't think there's like a great love and relationship between the two but i think they're all copacetic i actually don't see them getting along but i don't think david meant to snub her i think he just has his head in the clouds like it's like a big event for him there's like a lot going on i don't really think he was like looking i guess but like how do you not know that that's prince harry and then obviously megan with him no and like david foster you could say like he's senile or whatever he's very with it because i saw on aaron foster's instagram he's not senile no he's not he's just like an older gentleman but like he put on this huge like concerto he's like you can't be senile no but he might be like not attuned to his surroundings you know his face blindness like you know what people some people just have their head in the clouds like oh yeah i'm taking pictures on this carpet like i'm not paying attention i'm not like caught up on celebrities if they're not close personal friends and like he doesn't know megan mark we are giving a lot of grace but like but like only because we know them to be historically friends not even because of that but just because i think like a lot of times red carpet exchanges like are overblown here it's here you want to see it i just need to study it because i actually just could be a situation where he's just like walking around taking pictures he's not really like celeb focused right no it's like katherine comes in between gives a hug okay so i feel that it could also be like they were coming in for a hug but i think like he interpreted it as just like saying hello and walking by do you know what i mean but then he's coming for the picture he came to take a picture with them she is maybe he like went to get no he's still there no maybe i'm sorry i meant katherine maybe he went to get katherine like on the other side watch this video oh you're mine's more zoomed in i haven't seen the reels version yeah so they're like hey get in the middle and he walks right by katherine you know maybe people are just particular about their sides you know like maybe david foster is a lefty you know and they wanted him in the middle he said i want to be on the end you know maybe i just think he didn't really realize like who he was like walking past i think he was just like getting it done i'm sure he doesn't like love red carpets and pictures i'm not looking into this i don't know think that he dislikes her i don't think they would like come even though they go to the strangest things but they don't think they would come all this way to victoria just and i think that like the internet like dives so deep into a lot of her stuff and like it's worthy this is not worthy like genuinely leave the woman alone because this is when she's like the internet hate the bullying like this is what she's talking about but i know with love megan like we need to talk about yeah i don't think this is like bullying no but it's just like it sets a narrative like megan and harry are not just like it's these things don't just happen to her like we were just talking about like true layton meester and ariana grande it's just human it's life as a human human so yeah and life on earth you have to just you can't have any faux pas on a red carpet we're gonna dissect it and it's not specific to megan markle and it's not like your fault you know no and but it's not like she's the only one who gets picked up for stuff like this but she gets like this happens to happen to her she gets it a lot fuck you but i think also it's like we expect that the reception to megan mark and i think she expects that the reception is going to be like a princess red carpet marching band but at this point she's just like everyone else she's just a celebrity she's just like everyone else but i think him too she like walks through the world like where are the rose petals being thrown in front of me and then when it doesn't happen she's standing there just holding the bag and it creates an awkward moment yeah it does most people aren't like looking for like a grand reception yeah right but most people aren't the duke and duchess of sussex our fifth and final story whitney leovett reveals she's returning to broadway to star in just in time after breaking box office records in chicago so whitney has her next broadway show lined up does just in time ring a bell to you that's what i was telling you about remember because i said your favorite movie is beyond the sea with bobby darren do you remember this conversation margo astray's favorite movie so that's the play about and margo should go see it me and margo actually have chatted many times i wanted to go see and every time we talk about on the toast the show reaches out they're like i just can't get my ass this time square but like i will go for whitney leovett um maybe for whitney leovett so she's playing a role that's been actually played by a lot of celebrities sarah hyland was in it i think she started with um oh jonathan groff he was bobby darren like everyone was obsessed and honestly the fact that i didn't see it with jonathan groff like i really don't want to see it with anyone else matthew morrison did a brief like two-week stint as bobby darren um and the girl from the pit she's so annoying what's her name she's the one who never does her charts i don't remember any of their names she has played this role up until recently she did like a huge um stint on broadway so i guess whitney's replacing her oh okay it's unclear who the bobby is i i sort of feel like who's the jonathan groff because you know it's not jonathan groff he's so many i think it's um jeremy jordan that was like the last person i saw doing it and i'm sorry like jeremy jordan i'm sorry all the clips i've seen like there is one bobby darren it's jonathan groff splish splash it's all about the bath i went up there's like also a viral tiktok dance like i know everything it's like i'm so glad you know everything because i know nothing um no this is a big deal for whitney i would have been like she's in a random show how do you top chicago she's on her way out the thing is it's a little random now when it first debuted with jonathan groff no but like when it first debuted it was like hamilton with i'm sure manuel but since then like you know it's just another show on broadway but like she'll be great and she'll attract people it's a big one yeah you're gonna go i went and put my dancing shoes on yeah yeah yeah with jeremy jordan jeremy jordan yeah did it i can't believe jesse st james it's literally the glee the glee project well the glee is the broadway project yeah right like in another life had i been a little bit older like i would have went on the glee project and that's good that you didn't because i just don't think you'd be where you are today no and i don't think that like i should have been a part of the glee cast like they're extremely problematic you're one woman well two woman show who's the second you oh right i think like my dual personalities like it's a two woman show over here yeah so when he did this like big sit down what with people magazine yes and that's what had me thinking like it's never too late to start to reinvent yourself and just because you've done something or made a mistake or whatever like you can come back from it bigger and better i totally agree and that's like a philosophy like i as a human being both you know professionally and personally really champion like start over do something new it's as if it never happened me too yeah i mean i don't even think about whitney dancing in the i have to stop saying it like that but when when we by the way nikku is an abbreviation so there's no proper it's not an abbreviation it's a acronym it's an acronym so there's no there's no nikku when we used to recap secret lives like the early seasons you could always have to keep it in mind we always did it was just top of mind agreed it is out of my mind agreed and you know what's in my mind now eclipsed what's in your mind now fuck you for that i've been seeing a lot of like clips of them promoting the song so i've heard like the itunes version it's atrocious like it's actually worse than the live performance and i've seen more angles more like parts of the song and i feel like i agree with you that like somebody from salama should get into music like we owe demi and brett an apology because true colors demi's version is 50 times better than like what miranda's putting out and i don't want to like you know make fun of the girl who's putting herself out there creatively but i just don't think that this is right for her it's really bad I am going to, like, still be patient with her because I don't think it's the worst. idea however no it's a good idea yesterday were cracking me up that we were being far too nice yeah um I think I just wanted it to be good so like that's what I saw but I also the more I thought about it it's actually insane that she's singing in an accent when she doesn't have an accent when she doesn't have an accent and then when we were in the car on the way home we were listening to like a lot of like Ella Langley and like she's kind of ruining Ella Langley because it does she's trying to feel like a costume yeah it's true and it's like my culture is not a costume you can't sing in an accent that you don't have fuck you for that and if it were like a different culture that she were appropriating like people would be offended right like what if she was up there singing like an Indian accent all sorts of accents that you shouldn't take on if you don't have and are we sure she doesn't have roots in the south even if she does she doesn't have an accent right and to that I say fuck you for that I cannot I really can't stop I think today's emoji should be the middle finger and also every time she makes a tiktok about it we need to stop doing emojis the fact that yesterday wasn't the teddy bear like there's something wrong with us why teddy oh whatever it's more no like but I just want you guys to realize like that's how bad we can't even see our own show once it's in the rear view I also just want to say every tiktok I've seen of her like promoting it she keeps every she's like with both fuck you it's so cringe like I can't today's emoji is the middle finger she's also gonna need more songs yeah let's get some more songs going an EP let's get some more songs that uh is the show those are the past five and the middle finger emoji even though that's gonna be like hurtful and probably people will get blocked right no let's say hidden no one's gonna get blocked they'll be like all the hidden words whatever like let's see yeah we're like renegades we host like an nsfw pod thank you guys so much for listening to
