Summer House The Aftermath Bonus Episode Reaction: West Is a Coward + the Meija Timeline's MESSY

The episode blends entertainment, social media culture, and real-world celebrity news to explore trending topics. Nick Jonas’s viral TikTok moment, featuring a stylish summer look, triggers a wave of fan reactions and comparisons to classic aesthetics. The hosts also dive into the growing phenomenon of AI-generated "soap operas" on social media, such as fruits fighting in a fridge, which captivate users and lead to compulsive viewing. A key focus is the controversial "Summer House" bonus episode, where Amanda’s continued relationship with West despite Lindsey’s stern warnings raises concerns about emotional honesty and accountability. Fans critique West’s manipulative behavior and inconsistent statements, highlighting his emotional inauthenticity. Meanwhile, major celebrity news—including Jelly Roll’s divorce from Bunny, Joe Allin’s new relationship with Sarah Pigeon, and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding plans with a massive stage—gives rise to public speculation and excitement. The discussion also examines the marketing strategy behind limited product drops, acknowledging their success in creating buzz but criticizing their frustration-inducing exclusivity. Ultimately, the episode reflects on how digital culture shapes attention, emotional narratives, and consumer behavior, blending personal insight with broader social trends.

You must be like, I don't know where the fuck I am right now. No, I don't know. I don't know, but I've just, it's got, it's given me time to try and catch up on Love Island UK. Which I was excited for, because one of my friends, Jen, so she's going to be mad, spoiled it for me. Big shot at Jen. Well, she texted me. She saw my video and assumed I was caught up. Super fair. Super fair. Super valid. And then was like, I couldn't believe when blah, blah, blah, blah, blah happened. And I was like, God damn it. Well, don't tell me now. Don't make this a chain reaction. No, no, no. That is, I actually hate when people do that. When something gets spoiled for them and they're, and then they need to spoil it for other people. Because it's like, well, I can't be alone. Right. Spoiling. Wait, I meant to send you a TikTok. Ooh. And I want, I want your live reaction. I don't have my phone. I'm going to show it to you on my phone. Oh, okay. What do you think, I'm just going to text it to you from right here? I'm just going to pull it up and show it to you. I mean, you, um, no, you may need to cut out her actually watching it because she needs to watch it with sound to get the full effect. But I just need, like, I, this came up on my feed and I was like, wow, you know, I want, I feel like this is going to be a good time. I feel like this is going to be a good time. This version of Nick Jonas is right up your alley. Have you seen any of these videos? No, I haven't, but. Oh, okay, okay. Let me see. Wow. No, I don't. Why do I have, like, a tear form in my eye? He's never looked better. No, he looks amazing. I mean, you know how I feel about a chain. This video came up on my feed and I saw him wearing a chain with this, like, sleek, kind of, like, chopped sleeve. I went, Rhea's really going to like this version. I really do. And let me tell you, you know, not to make this weird, but Noah, wasn't I hyping Marty up this weekend because I got him, like, these muscle tees that, like, are kind of chopped? And I was like. It's like that kind of t-shirt. Yeah, I was like, whoo, these are working for you. So, honestly. No, it's. That shirt. Well, because when I, when I watched the video, I also was like, this is an outfit that Matt would wear. Yeah, no, literally, like, that shirt was what I was hyping up that weekend and Nick Jonas looks fucking incredible. If anyone wants to know, this is what Nick was wearing for the Atlantic City show, which also fitting, you know. It was a Jersey Shore show. And this TikTok went up on my page and the girl who posted it, Christina, wrote, frat boy, Nick is so back. And then everybody's freaking out. The video has not that many views, but I think the video has 26,000 views right now. I think I'm 6,000. I'm going to make, it's going to, you're going to see it go up to a million views later. It's just me on repeat. I sent it to, I sent it to Claire and I wrote. I wrote, all right, he can't be looking this good. No, it's, it's almost unfair to everybody. And his hair is looking really gray right now too. I got to give it to him. It's the whole combination that he has going on. And he's got like a summer glow as well. I'm a big fan of that cut. Summertime, summertime. That cut of the T. Yeah. I'm a big fan of that. Yeah. Did you see that people on Saturday going to his concert wore Nick Jonas? Like K and I. Get it? Get it? Nick Jonas. I did see that. Did you get it? You get it now? Yeah. Which is, whoever thought of, whoever was the first to think of that. Yeah. Genius. His show in Atlanta was at the Tabernacle, which is where we did our show. And he was watching that end of the game, four game. Yes. And they posted a video and he was like cheering. I was like, I recognize that green room. We've been in there before. That's a great one. That's a really cool green room. That's a true Nick Jonas green room. Yeah. Like a true rock star. No, that's a rock star green room. It's a rock star green room. It's all out of place, but there it's, you know, it's very cool. Decorated in a cool way. When you brought up TikTok, I thought you were going to bring up these TikToks that I've been getting on my feed and I need to know if anybody else has been getting them. Probably not. Because our first page is very different. They're very different. Mine is funky. Yeah. And if you're listening and this has been popping up in yours, please let me know. The fruits. Oh, the AI fruits. The AI fruits that are fighting with each other. When you open the fridge and they're like yelling. Are they yelling at each other in the fridge? No, like they're like broccoli is fighting with apple or banana is taking cherry on a date, but cherry is connected to her sister. Their stem connects them. Oh, I don't think I've seen these ones. It is full soap operas of AI fruits and vegetables. So it's like Toy Story. Yeah. Broccoli was leaving his veggie tails, his girlfriend, because she, she was getting too fat. So he went to the grocery store. He went to the gym. Broccoli went to the gym and met up with carrot. And then carrot was, was skinny with a, with a fat ass. And then his girlfriend came to the gym and lost a bunch of weight. But then she started dating another vegetable. It is like, is it just on one? Is it like one account? No, it's like so many different accounts. And my for you page is flooded with them. And they have millions of views and likes. The problem is once you, you, they get you cause you, you're so intrigued by what it is when it first pops up that you watch the whole thing. Cause you're like, I don't know. You're like, what the fuck is this? And then the algorithm is like, oh, she liked that. She watched the entire thing. And now you're watching it now. They keep giving you videos, right? And now I'm sitting there wondering, will broccoli get back with his girlfriend? I'm like, how, how deep am I into these fucking videos? And I know there's other people out there that have seen them because they, they have so many views and comments and the people are commenting, like, how am I here again? Why am I watching this full video? Where do I find part two today? I was searching for part two of a video. I'm like, I can't be sucked into fruit soap. Opera AI fruit Island hotel. They're there. Look at that. Yes. That's a lot of it. Like love Island. One that I saw was, Oh, but they're, they're, they're people. See the one that I was seeing is like, you'd open the fridge and it'd be like, uh, an actual tomato fighting with being like, eat me. No, it's, uh, trust me. I wish I wasn't getting them because bananas buff as hell. Yeah. Banana gets banana, banana, banana, nita. They get a lot. It's a whole thing. Yeah. I see it. You'll be getting them and you're going to start watching it. Like it's like, it's love Island. I wish I didn't put, I honestly wish I didn't search it cause now it's going to be stuck. No, you're this, um, filming the summer. I turned pretty. And, uh, I did have a couple of people message me that seemed like maybe around the, not like in the Cape Plymouth. I'm not really familiar. This video actually. He says they were, they were filming in, um, I think they were filming in situate, but they're just like all, it's all beach stuff. Cape cod out that way. Plymouth damn. I need this goddamn movie. When do you think it'll come out? Christmas half next year, which feels silly cause it's like feel so far away. But my guess is next year they did say 20, 27. What would you rather watch if you could watch it today? The next season. The next season of off-campus or the next season of off-campus, the next season of off-campus, next season of off-campus today. Here's the thing. I've waited long enough for the movie. Like I'm good waiting some more at this point. And if you had asked me right, if you had asked me that question right after the summer, I turned pretty ended, I'd have a different answer, but I've been, you know, I've been waiting long enough now where they're probably gonna make me wait till next summer. Exactly. And I feel like there's just more content with off campus. It's like, we'll get multiple episodes versus one movie. Yeah. So I'm scrolling away very fast from the off-campus photos that people are posting, like the behind the scenes, I'm going, ah, I don't want to see that. Yeah, I know. I'm trying to stay away from it. I don't, I saw one photo though. I couldn't, I couldn't avoid it. It came right up. Which one? When they were outside, he was wearing that leather jacket. Yeah. Yeah. You saw that one. I did see him. You saw him in the leather jacket. Obviously I went, whoa. And then I was like, God, I don't want to spoil the leather jacket moment. And here's the thing. I did do a double take before I scrolled away. Like I didn't want to spoil it, but I was like, I know it held my gaze for a few seconds. Right. But then you're like, oh yeah, I'm disgusted. And then I thought it'll only look better in HD. Exactly. So. So don't, let's not spoil it for ourselves. Yeah. I won't. I won't. Well, I think, you know, it's time to get into the final. What I think is the final, unless they left out another trailer from the screener, the summer house bonus episode. Yeah. Part two. They have a part two and they're just fucking with us. It's going to be October and we're still going to be like, yeah, it's just an entire extra season. Yeah. They're like, no, West isn't coming back, but here is five more episodes. Yeah. No. So summer house, if they were able to get this out this fast, why can't they get the regular summer house seasons out this fast? I'm sorry. This was done. What a fantastic fucking month. Yeah.

was right we should have known yes when lindsey herself was like it's good we should have known she knows she put on a show she did a great job which she did and i thought that she was stern honest she said exactly what we were all thinking which i liked here i think it was very clear she's like amanda i know you don't really have anybody in your life that is giving you this like tough love you know honest even if it's gonna hurt talk about what we should have known yes when lindsey herself was like it's good we should have and i'm gonna be the one to do it but it was may 13th that they sat down at lindsey's apartment and amanda confirmed a lot of things she confirmed that she still hasn't watched the show which is crazy she is off the internet because it's just had been making her too anxious and i actually think lindsey was very right in saying you know you made an adult decision now there's adult consequences you're you're ostriching you're digging your head in the ground and you can't do that like you kind of have to expose yourself to some of the consequences because you you can't move on if you just run away and hide from it all it's going to keep chasing you yeah i'm with you on that and i think that lindsey did a good job of making amanda feel like it was a safe space for her to talk to her and not like yes lindsey was extremely stern yeah and she was getting her points across but she was also open to hearing amanda yeah now everything goes out the window from what amanda said because we know they went to italy after and are continuing to date yeah if we watch this episode i think that there was there would be a little inkling of like okay maybe lindsey got through to amanda maybe she will listen and end things with west that's not what happened so now it's hard to watch this and talk about it in a different view yeah now all we can do is watch this and go i can't believe amanda did not listen to lindsey yeah because she spelled it out for her yeah she she gave her the blueprint it was it was a foolproof plan she said follow it through and she couldn't do it and i feel like the fact that amanda keeps saying she's not watching but she is going to film things it's like how do you not see the product or you're just living this kind of double life it's like i'm gonna go film and act this way on camera and i'm gonna go film and act this way on camera and the world's gonna see it but i'm not gonna watch that i'm just gonna act the way i want to act and not see how it's all going on the show which is which is crazy for a moment it did feel like lindsey was getting through to amanda for a slight moment i the way it ended you totally thought like she the way it ended lindsey was like you gotta you gotta end this thing and she was like i know and then but she didn't know she went to italy and then we and then we go to west with kyle number one the way he was acting towards that dog at first it's a small little dachshund yeah it's not gonna hurt you absolutely correct i do want to go back to amanda and lizzie for one second only because lindsey had a couple things i wanted to bring up that were i felt very important to the story here um one being that west and me has slept together in march crazy that was crazy crazy crazy absolutely crazy um i know amanda obviously she's not going to be in the movie but she's going to be in the movie obviously opened up and was saying how sort of insecure she's been and like she finally felt like she was getting back to being herself and going out and she was confusing her feelings with west with sort of like getting out there again and just having a social life and feeling like amanda um it was him would be he'd be reaching out in a lot of a lot of group texts shout out grandma c l house yeah you said that to me shout out i took a picture of it because i went oh my god because he's grandma c l is spot to be 1 p.m sunday grandma c l that is literally i was that really made me laugh but just like amanda sort of trying to and like i feel like lindsey was really trying to lead a horse to water with like so you're saying west manipulating you like all these things like trying to help help them and i know i'm i know lindsey's beginnings of flack for that online kind of saying that um that amanda was manipulated like she's an adult she made these issues herself for sure but lindsey kind of clarified and was like you know he's irredeemable but they've known amanda for so long they feel like you know they wanted to her to hopefully be able to come back from this um which it doesn't seem it's going to happen she lindsey did make a small wee wee joke she said he had a small wee wee and i went oh no with a little wee wee she said yeah yeah she you know what clean shot yeah yeah um i i kind of like did a double take like did i hear that correctly when it happened yep with a little wee wee she said um she also said you're you were getting you know you're getting your self-worth from kyle now you're doing it again with another guy which was also so fair it was like you need to be single for a little bit you need to learn to love yourself without a man and for the first time we saw amanda admit like it's because it was coming from a man yes because during the reunion we got none of that no because ciara was even saying like i've been there for you yeah and i think that's what lindsey was saying too like you have friends that you've been there for you and amanda was like it's because it was another guy yeah no totally it's like she's looking that so show me for that i think west tells amanda everything she wants to hear affirms her with his words and now they're in um lindsey said imagine fucking up so bad we all forgot how bad of a husband kyle was to you i went damn also ruthless but so true it's like yeah you're right that is what happened like she's like you really you really shifted the focus from what it was going to be on she said you were winning yeah yeah yep titanic moment she was like let go of his hand let him let him float to the bottom she couldn't have been she could have been more clear more clear and on point with what she was saying yeah i know i know which is really i also thought it was kind of crazy that amanda brought up the fact that she in some of these talks even before it was physical was like that she didn't really want to do like a casual thing and that you know she does want to have kids and all this i'm like man you are barking up the wrong fucking tree so and and we totally got from west and kyle sitting down and talking to it was like you this this is the guy you think it's gonna it's settled down and have kids with you it's crazy to me that she is even buying the lies that west could convince her that he is somewhat capable of settling down committing to her being monogamous with her and having kids yeah like you know she said we didn't we haven't talked about having kids obviously but i told him that's what i want how could you even believe that is something he could be having in the near future totally it's not possible this man is insane i mean don't let me do it for a fourth week in a row uh the way that i get so riled up yeah about how dumb he is and how i genuinely think he is like a scary person here's he he freaks me yeah the fuck out like i i really i his whole demeanor freaks me out i think he is and i mean this like in in a not a super malicious way because the word i think is a very can be like a really strong word but he's just a coward like he's just a really big coward when it comes to confronting feelings that is tame no i i i know but it's just like psychopath guys guys really wouldn't like don't like to be called cowards yeah that maybe that's why i was thinking it's like if you're called a a coward as a man. - Like hit him where, like you really hit him where it hurts. a fucking coward right like like psychopath sociopath yeah he's like i've been called those names they're like whatever that's tuesday when he was explaining that he hadn't been clear to mija she thought they were exclusive he obviously didn't was acting like he wasn't but that she had asked him to be with her family over the holidays and he said no and he like made up a whole thing in his head of like well in his mind that's he's telling her that it's not that serious but he's not telling her it's not that like he's not using those words he's just being like oh i can't meet your family at christmas like it's not and then he's like well she should have picked up on that even with sierra it was like oh well we kissed a couple times after the summer but then like we went out for her birthday but like then i didn't go out after with him i'm like okay you you're you're wanting everybody to like read really deep in between the lines of what you're doing without actually saying any words to anybody like you're not really communicating anything you're just thinking everybody knows what you're what you're saying because you're like oh well i i mean i just thought you would know no they also showed pictures of him like cuddling under a blanket with sierra november 2025 yeah yeah that was crazy um you know what you know what also always gets me and he really is such a fucking guy's guy because at the beginning when he was like the the most emotional he got in that conversation was when he was like and when you shared when you shared that basketball video when you shared that basketball video of all of us in the pool that hit that hurt it didn't hit until i saw the hoops man he's been you know the friendship is imploding that video made him so sad when he finally saw that video was like damn really let a good thing go we could have been playing ball together we could have been passing that pool ball around all summer long now it's summer 2026 would have went crazy with those hoops seriously i also i'm a little i wonder because kyle said that he had convinced amanda not to do a podcast that she would have had to fly to which my immediate gut reaction is she alex cooper probably wanted her on call her daddy right because he said it was supposed to be like a my yeah like a sit down was like what is your what is your truth yeah you don't even know what it is right and like it wouldn't and kyle was probably right because that would not have turned out good for it would have turned you you sit down on call her daddy after you realize west you don't want to be with west and it was a giant mistake and and you you're reformed and you're like ah then you sit down with alex cooper yes because alex cooper's gonna want to shit on west right you don't go when you're still gallivanting in italy and you're like yep i just got back just got back from a nice from a nice trip um um west had asked her if she wanted to be single for a while like he he said that he has been like do you do you want to be single you want to be saying all these things i guess she was telling him no whatever um it's just it's kyle just like really was grilling him on like if he's ready to settle down and be faithful and like all these things and like he's not even the semantics battle that they were getting in over i love you versus being in love it's like i have love i love her i i'm in love kyle's like no i have love for amanda but i'm not in love with her anymore and he's like oh well like i haven't said i'm in love with her but like i you know i i do love her and care about her a lot but he also where where are we where are we here he also said he hasn't told himself that he's in love with her yeah what does that even mean then he when he was like i told her i went out i told her i loved her when he was when i was walking out of your room noah's face listening to this he's in pure shock because he has no he's trying to think i'm like yeah what does he mean by that no it's no it's it's actually he hasn't told himself he's in love with her yet or her hasn't hasn't said this is where i wrote down hasn't said he's in love with to her or himself but i do love her and like have and like he said have for like a really long time and so when he said that he walked out of when he walked out of their bedroom when they were fighting in august and was like i love you if you know text me if you need me they played that clip and you're just like okay well what that's what do you what are you trying to prove with that that you were saying i love you and you're this whole time you're trying to prove that you guys were just really close friends at that time why is that the instance that you're bringing up and kyle was like i told lindsey i loved her last night after watch what happens live like she's my sister that there's a difference between west doesn't know what it is like to be in love he does not know he's incapable of feeling those things and apparently he is a sociopath apparently he wants to prove it to amanda he says he's going to prove that he cares about her feels things that he learns online that he should feel right oh beep he's like a robot beep bop boop bop i should feel like this there's practicing crying but i think what's crazy is i don't think he's been on the internet that much so i feel like he's probably lost on how to on how to go about this you know like it's like where where do you go still i think he just like looks up like how does somebody react to this how do you pretend to have this emotion yeah like there's it's it's unbelievable kyle said he owes kyle said west owes miha an apology uh west then said he owes a lot of people apologies how how many people how many how many girls are expecting a phone call of some sort of apology and then we lead into miha's conversation with tiara so seven days later from that may 27th they sit down they sit down together and we get unaired footage of jesse solomon asking west about miha two summers ago two summers ago and last summer yeah hey guys we're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back football season's here and whether you're grinding your way through the week or gearing up for kickoff there's one ride that's always game ready the chevy silverado there's a reason chevy is called the heartbeat of america and silverado keeps that heartbeat strong whether you're towing hauling or tailgating silverado lets you show up strong and tackle any task you with best in class standard torque the most functional bed and the advanced tech that's football guy approved check out offers on the 2026 silverado at chevy.com all right now back to the show two summers ago he says you've been texting someone i see the name come up on your phone and west is like she's just like she's just some girl from montana she lives in montana and then the producer's like are have you been talking to a girl you're not talking about and he's like he basically says no yeah then last summer jesse says how is me huh yeah and west says huh yeah and jesse said how is me huh and west says probably good yeah meanwhile she's like sleeping in his bed and is in his apartment probably she is in his new york city apartment at that time she said that there were plenty of times when he would go and film it which we had known already she had said that she would be in the city he would go film for the weekend they'd be together during the week he would invite her to stay at his place over the weekend so that she was there when he would come home he had just moved into that apartment so she likes doing design stuff and was helping out with some things and and all that but it makes sense on why like seeing that clip from two years ago from two summers ago now makes it even more clear on why they had been so close and and had been talking still like this has been going on for a long time she he still like confides in her they're on the phone for six hours she said they're talking but now they have to talk on the phone and not text because amanda could see their texts so now he's so now he's calling her and doubling down on the fact that we saw this in the in the preview that after the reunion he texted her and said you win which is a crazy thing to do and i think that's a crazy thing to text my fear is that miha is not going to cut all ties with west right that is my fear because ciara even said to her like i'm shocked you haven't even blocked him right and and she did kind of say it's hard to to disconnect and just like completely remove all the feelings because it it seemed like she thought that she was in on in on it all like their secret relationship they were talking about how it was kind of sexy and they she kind of liked times but she felt like she was in on it now she's like oh i wasn't at all so it's a bigger wake-up call um and even ciara's like why is he still like even reaching out to you it's crazy that that's happening when now he's trying to show everyone that he's like so committed to amanda it's it's wild i also thought like ciara did apologize right when they sat down about like miha having to see them kiss at the end of the summer i was like wow you know ciara that's very nice of you and something something who who knew you'd even have to be apologizing for that because it's like it's not ciara didn't know this girl existed exactly and miha said that she was like i mean it's not on you yeah like yeah you know what i was thinking because she miha said that she was petty i was like oh new cast member for the summer the same thought will we be seeing her in the will we be seeing miha in the hamptons this summer she did she did pretty good on camera she seemed pretty natural i i'm actually like more i'm like higher than 50 percent that miha will be on this she'll have yeah she'll have a cameo for sure if not full-time cast member like especially with like sierra's like miha's coming for the weekend yeah oh my god just like get in the mix and see what happens so um yeah then it kind of it ended a nice moment they were joking saying like their relationship their friendship would outlast west and amanda and then that was it we'll see what happens with these two the rest of the summer but like you said it's like they she went to italy right there's nothing really to add from this because we know the outcome and that's if they're going to continue to try to date yes and i i had also said because miha said um with the with the italy stuff like first west had told her he was just going to italy not with amanda and then him going with her was just like a big fuck you to his him is her his whole family like which is super fair super fair because he was like just go be with your family like you should you should go and do that and then he brings amanda so and and we know that that did happen we know they were there and they have been seen together you know this past weekend they were together so yeah so we'll see what happens with that moving on while we were on the topic of alex cooper there was a vanity fair article that dropped at the end of last week about alex her husband uh yeah that that like 3 4 p.m friday afternoon hit piece drop which it does happen because look what happened monday came around i forgot to bring it up monday came around and they announced that she's producing the new icebreaker show yeah exactly right it was like this is you just completely jumped around from this but yeah that came out friday afternoon we kind of knew that this was in the works we had heard that there was an article being written um they were asking yeah he's yeah unwell past present that whole thing yeah i think people had posted on tiktok too like past employees had posted yeah that they were being asked yeah and just from the sense of the article seems like matt caplan's perhaps maybe more of the issue but that's also taking the article of face value and um from working somewhere that's had hit pieces done when you read an article where you're like that's not accurate right you know so i sometimes you take everything with a grain of salt but yes at the same time that this journalist did write that spoke to a ton of employee ex-employees employees at unwell and caplan and then i think maybe i'm forgetting the other guy's name there's one other guy that also seemed like a little sketchy yeah and it was like the two of them and everybody else was like behind the scenes like i don't know i don't know it's like these two are these two are running the show and caplan's making inappropriate comments threats all the sort to people which is not good not good at all and of course you also i think there was one something that came from their lawyer that threatened van like they basically were like we will take down vandy fair yeah then yeah right there was a back and forth of like their lawyer reaching out being like we will take down vandy fair and then they're like we will take down vandy fair yeah then yeah right there was a back and forth of like their lawyer reaching out being like we will take down vandy fair and then they're like we will take down vandy fair yeah we're not getting from from zendaya but i did i liked the confirmation i think was smart at the beginning of them doing press because there's no way people aren't going to be asking them about this and i'm sure they're going to have i'm sure they're even their publicists can say as many times as they want not to bring it up people are going to try and sneak it in they're going to try and work around it or get some sort of soundbite for them about a wedding or whatever and this was a good way to be like look because now the public's gonna be like look tom confirmed that there were something and now that's it don't ask about it they're gonna have very cheeky responses if they do get asked sort of like that one i am excited for them to be doing press together though because every time a new spider-man movie comes out and they do press together i think i watch every single interview every single video every single game every outlet they go to i watch it all they really do have some great ones do you remember the super super cringy one from years ago when they maybe weren't confirmed that they were dating when zendaya like started doing the spidey moves yes yes that one's a classic yes but the newer ones are great yes definitely seeing them actually like have fun and answer questions hey guys we're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back

on the topic of married on the opposite end of that jelly roll files for divorce from bunny yeah now these two tumultuous right because what happened he cheated on her and she stayed yeah and now he's divorcing her so it seems he filed he filed um reconcilable differences yes well of course but i don't know you you have to go back to the show i had seen them as sort of uh success story i think even though despite the cheating it's just like the way they spoke about each other and when what was it the grammys what was it when he went up there won that award and was like i'd be dead jail whatever if it wasn't for you talking about his wife i think it was recently this past year yeah it was like a whole big thing whole big proclamation it was but we did know and and she had a book come out uh earlier this year and i believe jelly roll has alluded to that causing some issues of resurfer resurfacing these tough times in their relationship he cheated years ago when i think he was not sober he had claimed he was around people that were bad influences people that were cheating on their significant other and were normalizing it and all of these things and she took him back but now divorce and she's been posting some sort of you know shady things on on social media alluding to taking the trash out is it is it okay to make the joke of like he got fit all of a sudden and was like i'm on the prowl i'm on the market you know i think it's a fair joke i think it's a fair point to make that people are gonna be saying that yeah they're gonna be like he dropped all this weight now he thinks he's gonna be out there absolutely absolutely she is i didn't really know much about them or their relationship but i think that this was big news for people when i i didn't know much about it and nor do i have much invested in these two as i am not a jelly roll listener me either i've never heard a jelly roll song in my life well you have but not on purpose i don't know you guys you have to have i don't like but not like deliberately listening but you've been somewhere and it's turned on i don't think oh 100 has to well we can't play it now but no i we can't let me sing it no i'm kidding bunny xo is that her given name bunny xo yes first name bunny middle middle x last name o yeah really yeah her name's bunny yes bunny xo yeah confirmed so she posted um yeah this is yeah look up her real name i see you want to elissa deford well that's her married name deford is yeah bunny was her given name deford is jelly who is this person deford is jelly rolls last name elissa bunny what is jelly rolls that first name jeremy jason jason bradley deford jason jason he's only 41 i would have thought he was like 55 really really he doesn't i thought he was young i thought he was pretty much the age you said yeah bunny did post a picture of her in some sexy lingerie and she was she's getting her sparkle back um uh she does host the um very popular dumb blonde podcast as well and she's like this is this was the sound she used i think that song that song's a banger oh that's a great song yeah yeah so she posted that she's just saying down of every bottle nickelback we gotta play more nickelback this is like when we're at the beach house like that would have hit yeah she posted that yesterday a lot of the time and wrote banger um it's your fault for forgetting nickelback it is yeah i but what i was saying is um yeah not like really following either of them but when i saw the graphic on instagram that they were getting divorced i i went right and i was like wait why i was like why why is this affecting me so much like it's because people are always like they like they love them yeah yeah and you know what i really i think it was that declaration on stage really stuck with me when he was like you did this for me and all these things because other than that i didn't really know too much about their turmoil besides the the cheating i was aware of that that had happened but didn't really know the full details of that but i wonder if she'll share more i'm sure i feel like she will i get the feeling she will yes that's that's what i lean towards and it's like you you know you stuck by him through all those years and all those ups and downs and every weight class and he decides to get skinny and here we are he thinks he's a big shop and here we are uh-huh moving on last topic uh joe allwin's seen out with sarah pigeon yes new couple you know what this makes sense to me enough time has passed i mean obviously enough time has passed would be insane she's getting married i meant enough time has passed because she is getting shit on the internet who's getting shit sarah pigeon's getting shit for being with him what did he do what reason for just for dating joe allin i he's not allowed to date anybody i'm not allowed to date anybody dark hole i think it's fine i'm just relaying i'm just people aren't saying the reactions i have seen online i have not seen that i why would it be an issue for somebody to date him because like it's like once you're in the book of x's you're you're written off with sarah pigeon and taylor swift are not friends no no no no just in the court of public opinion of the swifties it's like oh you could date somebody else that's i think they're not friends no i don't think it's like a oh you're you're you're they don't know each other no i don't think they're doing it in defense of like taylor swift i think it's like no they are they don't like joe allwin so therefore they're not gonna like her dating him but why don't they like joe allwin remind me what did he do well he dated her for a long time without you know committing which was a big issue for many people because she that's all she wanted and so she wrote about it many times you ever listen to peace yes i think that my whole thing is that from what she's written about yes you know we can assume some things but we don't really know no what happened so i don't want to just automatically think joe allwin's like this terrible guy when we don't really know i actually don't really think there is a lot of uh literacy on him literacy literature literature i meant to say because he seems like he's friendly with a lot of people he was at calum turner's wedding i don't i don't know what he's doing but i think that it just goes off of like scared of commitment yeah perhaps of that and just not you know publicly here's the thing it worked out and portraying love it worked out for the best because now she's with the love of her life and certainly they're an amazing couple taylor and travis and that's that's the win so it's like who cares what joe allwin did at this point because now she's marrying the love of her life that's why hey i'm with you guys i'm with you I said I think that these two, I do get siblings, dating from them they look alike in my opinion joe and sarah but she's just she's blonde no i think they i think their faces look i feel like her and taylor look more like than these two i mean him and taylor you think joe and taylor look more like i could see that too i think but i do kind of see it with sarah a little bit as well but yeah they've been gallivanting around new york makes sense to me i got no kissing smooching no qualms with them yeah is that why taylor shows us in the studio for like 12 hours last night yeah yeah she did it she was coming out she's running a diss track yeah she was coming out of electric lady at 5 30 this morning maybe it inspires music yeah maybe we're getting a wedding and like a new song at the same time about the wedding yeah you know an album on her wedding day no i don't even no don't even tell me like that that would be a minute is a friday at msg on her wedding day she actually gets up there before she says i do she just performs someone's leaking it no they're getting married they're building a giant ass stage did you see the the um the article about the stage that's what he's talking about that she's building some crazy stage yeah in pennsylvania they're actually removing the roof of msg for taylor this says taylor swift uh is building she's commissioned a massive stage for her and travis's wedding event at massive garden it's being secretly built at a pennsylvania production facility in my mind like it's so ridiculous i'm thinking someone's feeding tmz just like these insane stories seeing if they'll print them um but tmz wrote our sources say the stage is being built at a campus called rock lit litis lit it's in lit it's pennsylvania it's a massive facility where bands often rehearse before going on tour we're told a quote massive stage is being constructed in a warehouse under lock and key with security guards patrolling the area crazy listen i think she is 100 getting married to msg and i can't wait to to find out that that's true well we got zoron over here did you see what he said yeah he said that it's happening it's definitely i mean at this point it's like we we it's it's happening uh andy reeds the the designer who's outfitting andy reed was posting a picture of him trying on his tux getting fitted if you just want to travis kelsey's like friends in the nfl you have to be like this is like now i'm gonna be at a wedding with paul mccartney now no it's yeah yeah it's gonna be who if there really is a thousand people though you know might not even run into paul i don't even you might not even run into taylor i didn't even get catch a catch a glimpse of him but no it is funny because as we get closer it's like all the people that are out there are going to be like oh my god every business that is making something or providing something providing a service whatever it is they will be posting like it's not andy reed posting here's my tux it's like the the brand that is making his tux is like wow we're fucking posting that we're fitting them for taylor swift and travis's wedding did you see mariska she won't be performing on that friday she will oh oh broadway i forgot she's on broadway she won't be performing on that friday they announced that they didn't announce it but people saw it under the uh like the schedule yeah yeah yeah i can't believe it's so soon it is so soon i can't i can't wait to find out yeah i can't wait we i think we will get pictures from them but like on their terms yeah i agree are they gonna raise a banner that's like taylor swift had her wedding like it's like nick's banner i actually think they may just hang a photo of them having their first kiss right next to the next new banner you know in cat's deli where there's that sign that says like this is where harry and yes like they're gonna do that like this is where taylor and travis i think it's literally gonna go up right next to the next banner probably oh shit all right that wraps up the topics hey guys we're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back on game day all right now back to the show all right let's get into the pop corner where we're taking your hot takes your voicemails your opinions let's get into it noah play that first track hey rhea fran and noah so my hot take let me know if you agree with this we have in the city going right now and it's great and then we have next gen nyc coming out next month also very exciting do we really need real housewives of new york city still it was already a flop i know they're rebooting it with different people in it do they really want to take that chance again we already have a lot of people in it so we're going to take that chance again we already have a lot of people two great nyc shows do we need a third i'm not so sure we do i'm a long island girly i've gone to the city my whole life family in the city love the city but i don't want them to kill it with too many nyc shows i don't know what do you think i i actually think that this is a great idea i never thought of it like this but i really do think you bring up a great point we have two city shows already i have heard rumblings of them working on other shows i don't know what to do with them as well then we're just going to have multiple bravo shows that take place in the city and sometimes when things are dead they're dead and you know i i get i get where you're coming from with this i actually don't think that's a bad idea while you bring up next gen are we going to talk about melania oh shit i forgot about that i forgot that that happened um i would just first like to say that i disagree oh okay um i actually think there is a place for real house in new york i think that the housewives franchise just operate very differently i i find that you know it's it's a different age group it's different problems different issues it's all these all these shows are set all these shows are cast cast of people at different ages in the city and real housewives is probably the closest to crossover but they all have different problems different issues different fights if there were like three shows and it's all about young people in their 20s in new york then yeah that's overkill but to me that there's a place for real houses i want to give a new season a chance because yes now we're we're going on like another reboot because they've already tried to do it didn't really work now we're doing it again i'll give this season a chance if it's bad then yeah maybe it is time it just kind of comes to an end and then you can kind of bring up these younger generations with their reality shows in new york but for right now like i don't i'm not as conflicted i'm also not like next gen is back you know so i i i gotta see and i'll keep watching like well i watched the whole season of next gen the whole first season i watched so i hope that they have a good second season i know people really fucking love the first season which was astonishing to me but i think that they'll have room for it i know that there's already been drama going on with that whole group so there's more to share but there's room for in my opinion there's room for uh ronnie still so i'm excited to see where it goes melania judice did get arrested right arrested for domestic a domestic incident domestic violence um which is crazy for so many reasons but we have no details about no no there's not there's no there's literally no details 20 years old she's very young i don't know her exact age after the shocking news of onage's daughter was arrested domestic violence back in may the other ladies of real hospitals of new jersey have been speculating of who oh that's crazy somebody in a newsletter asked if they thought it was was louis that like i saw people talking about that online that they were saying that they thought that it was maybe like with or against louis yeah that that would be crazy to me because in the of the fact of like that would require her or someone around like calling the police over it um but no she was charged with simple assault and purposely knowing causing a bodily injury and the incident took place in monville where they live so i guess that's why people are thinking that too because if it was maybe in their in their home right um well a lot of people assume that it was a case of domestic violence but i think it's a case of domestic violence but i think it's a case of domestic violence but i think it's a case of that louis could be involved oh i don't like i don't like that at all i don't like that i just that's no the whole situation doesn't seem good but there is really no right i guess i kind of immediately just made an assumption of some sort of like relationship issue i don't i didn't know i didn't know if she like had a boyfriend or something or was seeing somebody but um real hostess in new jersey has been filming but this altercation was not caught on camera apparently and i guess they're speculations of if this will be addressed in the new season because they have been filming I can see them addressing it. Obviously, it's not on camera, but I can see them talking about it, but we'll see. Yeah. All right. Play the next one. Hey, Rhea, Fran, Noah, and Olive. I'm Belle. I'm calling from a small town in Ohio, and my hot take is that brands have normalized doing drops way too much. I love Park, Daily Drill, Set Active, Aloe, all of the big brands with all of the fun spring, summer, winter drops, but I hate that you can never literally buy anything just normal or basic on their website. I think that Aloe does the best job because they do color drops, but you can also still get basics, but if you want just a plain Daily Drill's white-ribbed tank, you literally cannot buy it, and you have to rely on drops. Let me know what y'all think of drops and Park and just all the things surrounding all of the madness, because it's also interesting. It's interesting to me that you cannot buy these things. If the drop happens at 10, by 10.02, it's all gone. So, yeah. Let me know what y'all think. Bye. It's just a marketing pull. They get people excited. I think they set a certain amount of inventory on purpose because people are going to talk about it more if it's sold out. I get the marketing behind it, but I'm with you that when you get on somewhere and it's sold out. I tried to get Rode the other day. It was sold out. It was sold out instantly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know? Like, it was a. I actually just got in. I got in to try. It came today, actually. I just ordered a. This is a Rode Lip Combo. Oh! New. I love it. New lip and liner. I love it. One of the new shades. Couldn't get in. Couldn't get it. And I'm wearing the bronzer. I gotta. Then you gotta sign up for the wait list, and it's a whole thing. No, I. So, I understand. You notify me when we stocked. I'm doing. Yeah. I understand the frustration. I do love certain drops, though. I think Dairy Boy. Yeah. Dairy Boy does great. A great job with their drops. Yeah. Super cute. A lot of times, it's seasonal. Aloe, I think that. Like you said, there's. But I think there's gonna be the places that have their basics, like Aloe and whatnot. And then there's gonna be the places that are more, like, niche things that are not gonna be the place that you buy your basic at. And, like, my opinion. Some of it's good. Some of it's not. But some people are really good at marketing their brands. Some of it's really good at marketing their products and have caused this rabid desire for a product that otherwise, like, maybe you wouldn't look twice at. But they have created this hype around it, and it's so impressive to do that, that people are so attracted to it, and you put a certain amount on sale, and they're gone in two seconds, and then you see. You talk to your. "Oh, my God, did you get it? Did you not? Can't wait for the next drop." It just creates conversation, creates buzz. And then more people are talking about it, and then more people want it. It's just like that. It's. I don't know. It's a very, like, psychological thing, 'cause it's. You. I'm sure people walk down the street, they see some girls in, like, a park sweatshirt, and they're like, "Oh, I wasn't able to get that one," you know? And then your mind is like, "I really want that one, 'cause I wasn't able to get it." 'Cause then you're locked into trying to get it the next time. I don't know if. All the success would have been the same if all the time you could just go on and buy one of the sweatshirts. That is true. Right? It's like with the Stanley drops. Yeah. Remember? It was, like, certain colors, or. Yes. And it's limited edition. It's like, there's only so many. You want it, 'cause not everyone's gonna be able to get it. Exactly. Exactly. So, despite it being annoying, 'cause it's like, "Oh, you want the convenience of buying something when you wanna buy it," it makes sense on their end, and it's obviously gonna continue, 'cause it works so well. It's gonna sell on all of us. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hey, guys. We're gonna take a quick break, and we will be right back. This episode is brought to you by State Farm. Football has a play for just about everything. You can go deep, keep it on the ground, or drop something nobody sees coming. And whether you want to run a flea flicker or the tush push, you need a plan to fit your unique situation. That's why State Farm takes the time to get to know you, so they can help personalize coverage for your life and budget. Now that's a solid game plan. Like a good neighbor. State Farm is there. All right. Now, back to the show. Hey, guys. This is Claire. I'm an OG fan. Back when you used to post one-minute clips on the main Barstool account daily. Shout out. We're back. I used to eat them up. However, there's a lot of love or ranking of the Chris's, but not a lot of ranking of the Jason's. So, I want you to rank the Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, and Jason Siegel. Love you. Bye. Ooh. Jason Bateman. I feel like we need a fourth. I know. But who's the fourth one? Like, you can't, like, throw Jason Statham in the mix with these guys. Honestly. Like, she went funny guy. Funny Jason's. Jason Bateman, Jason Siegel, and Jason Sudeikis. Jason Sudeikis. Yeah. So, what are we ranking on? Because the Chris's, it went looks. Right. I think maybe humor for Jason's? Right. Oh, those funny Jason's. They're the personality guys. Should we throw Jason Biggs in there? Yeah, right. It's like. Right. Okay. Well, we can do three. Yeah, yeah. And they're the personality guys. Yeah. For me, and I'm just going to go based on humor. Yeah. Because I can't begin to get into their personal life. Yeah, right. Because then my list will be different. Yeah. Fair, fair, fair. Number one for me is Jason Sudeikis. Really? Mm-hmm. Number two is Jason Bateman, and number three is Jason Siegel. Wow. I'd go complete flip. I think one is Siegel, two Bateman, three Sudeikis. Mm. You know what? Everyone has that. Yeah. Everyone has that. I think I agree with that. Despite me really do liking Ted. I love Ted Lasso. But he obviously has so many other very funny things. Jason Siegel. Siegel is so fucking funny. I love him. I'm just thinking in terms of all the movies that I really like, I think, yes, Siegel is probably number one. Yeah. There's a couple of Jason Sudeikis movies that I think are really funny. Yeah. Like Hall Pass, Horrible Bosses. Yeah. Those ones aren't. Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Those movies I've seen maybe once. But the thing is for me, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I love. I don't necessarily think Jason Siegel is super funny in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Really? Oh my God. He's so fucking funny in that movie. I love you, man. Yeah. Even Knocked Up, he was so funny in that. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Wow. I'm reconvincing myself about how funny Siegel is. I also just think Jason Bateman is the most versatile. He's down the middle. Right. Yeah. Because he's also a serious actor. Yeah. He could be a serious actor. versatile he's down the middle right yeah because he's also a serious actor he can do it all and yeah he can host a podcast and he's got a popular podcast yeah i've always leaned sedacus any other famous jasons out there i literally just look there's really surprisingly not that many like like a-list jasons jason statham but i don't know i don't know what his humor if we're going on handsome factor then jason statham statham would go straight to the top them at the top jason derulo jason momoa oh jason momoa interesting but then we're then no we're this is we're going humor funny guys jason earls this is a this is a this is a funny guy funny guy ranking now if we were to rank them like we had ranked the chris's in the past i'd probably go jason isaacs i'd probably go so sedacus bateman seagull yeah maybe that i don't you know but it's a tough one joe's been watching freaks and geeks oh it's a good show classic um which i had really i had never seen oh my god i like i tune in here i already have three friends why would i need any more it's a classic um and he was a kitty pie young seagull but that would have what are like a a backhanded compliment yeah he used to be i was just saying i hadn't i hadn't seen him in anything at that freaks and geeks point of his life i can't believe that only had one season yeah that is like what a cast so many stars rogan james franco linda carter have you guys seen james franco's tiktoks oh my god by the way yeah yeah seth rogan was asked about him again yeah i'm just kind of trying to i kind of just ignore what he's doing well but yeah of course but no i know they popped up and i was like what's he doing what is he doing yeah what is he doing that's that's my rank what's your jason ranking i think i agreed humor with you i think jason seagull jason bateman jason sudeikis is last for me sometimes i like bateman sometimes i don't so but nothing out of all three of them is more rewatchable to me than forgetting sarah marshall that is the most rewatchable yeah like i'm never really like rewatching jason bateman movies other parts of forgetting sarah marshall funnier than jason seagull if that makes sense like like i get what you're saying yeah like mila kunis and like like like russell brand oh yeah unfortunately unfortunately and also paul rudd jonah hill paul and jonah hill like there's a lot of other are there a lot of - What's your name is Paul's? - Paul Rudd. - Revere. - We're going real, we're going way back. Paul Dano? - No. - No, yeah, like it's rare to have like people who are all very, like, similar in a way. Yeah. Yeah, there's not. There's not. No. Not enough. All right, well, yeah. We'll lock in our Jasons. Those are our Jasons. All right, let's do one more. Hey, guys. We're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back. Hey, it's Fran from Chicks in the Office.

Hi, Bria, Fran, and Noah. I'm calling to give a hot take and just a personal flex of my own, which is that I love to channel surf. I love to channel surf for a movie at night, and on the radio, in the car, I love to channel surf, but I feel like nobody ever likes to do that anymore. They all want to play their own playlist or their own podcast or pick their own movies from Netflix, Peacock, Prime, whatever. I find so much comfort in channel surfing. I wanted to know if you guys channel surf or if you always have to play your own stuff. I'm with you. Thanks, have a good week. I am a channel surfer sometimes. Sometimes I like to sit on the couch and just channel surf. Just flip through the TV guide? Sometimes Friends, King of Queens is on. You're catching it with the commercials. You catch a movie with the commercials on. Sometimes it makes it more exciting. Ooh, I never thought to watch this movie recently, but it's on TV. It's on TV. My brother is a big, big, does that, like, where I'll come home and I'm like, it'll be the most random movie on that he's locked into. I'm like, what are you watching? He's like, it's on TV. Sometimes it'll catch you. I probably for the first time in a while did it in the car when I was driving out to that wedding the other weekend. We didn't have a way to, like, connect our phones, and we were just being lazy to, like, do the whole Bluetooth. And we were just flipping through the satellite XM channels. There's some good ones on there now. There are. There's some pretty good ones, and I haven't done that in a while where I was really going through, but it was fun. The 90 station? Yes, and there was a run there where we, I think it's like there's an alt 2K channel, and then there's this, the Pop Rocks channel, which is great. And. Nothing really gives you that kind of satisfaction. And I know Spotify is trying to do it now, like the DJ feature and those things.

He has always had some interesting priorities. Right. And that stays. Right. In that way. It's not even, it's not about his wife. No. It's about him knowing what to do. Yeah, right. He just wants to get married. No, I think he wants someone who like can rely on him, you know. Yeah. He just wants to get married so someone can be like, my God, John just knows what to do. My God, John is just the best. She's, he really knows how to handle conflict. Yeah. He wants a hype woman. Oh no, fix that TV, John. Yeah. Well, he, I mean, he was trying. Yeah, that's over.
