What's up everyone? It's Chicks in the Office with Rhea and Fran giving you that Friday energy on a Monday. Sorry for the delay everybody. Unfortunately we had a co-worker Jonathan Stanko. He passed away last week. Tragically he lost his battle with cancer.

And Sanko worked on Cutting Stems. He was a big pop culture guy. He was always the most excited for the guests that we had come in here. Love The Bachelor. Love The Bachelor. He had his picture with Joey. And obviously, it's just incredibly heartbreaking and very sad. So we were at his memorial service this morning. Yeah, it was a beautiful service. And a lot of the Barstool World fans

went up to Rye to be there for that and honor the life that he had. He was so young, 32, just recently married as well. So it was really nice to be at the service. Beautiful eulogies, family, friends, talking. One of his lifelong best friends also works here at Barstool, grew up together. They went to college together now and then they work together.

So, you know, heard from him and some family members. So it was, we had to delay the episode so that we could be there. And we are back in the studio now for the rest of Monday's episode. Yes. He was a big part of Barstool, producer, tech guy, worked in the control room with everybody. And yes, like you said, beautiful words. And like Dave kept saying, probably

Probably the most universally loved guy here. He was just the nicest guy. He had his fingerprints on everything, too. He was always there. Anytime I had a problem, he'd be in here. Exactly. There's endless times that Noah was messing around with equipment and things didn't work, and he had to come in here and save us. Right. It's just so sad, so tragic, and he will be extremely, extremely missed. And it was just, yeah, it's...

It's really like some of the toughest, toughest stories is now, you know, seeing these young people with so much going for them lose their battle to cancer. And it's just, yeah. Incredibly sad. But like you said, beautiful words were spoken about him. Absolutely. That was very, very nice to hear. Could be there. And now, you know, everyone's back.

In the office. We are here in the studio now. You're actually headed to Chicago to go film the Surviving Barstool reunion. So that's going to be...

jam-packed with emotion. I don't know what is going to go down filming that with everybody. It'll be the first time everybody's all in the same room again since it's been aired. Yeah, it will be a reunion. So everyone voted already back when the show, the finale was filmed. People voted back when the show was filmed in September. Now it's like the reunion, that whole thing. Some episodes this week.

I will not be on Wednesday's episode because we can't fit in the recording time. But I'll leave everybody with this one sentence. Even Tony Soprano had panic attacks. I'll just leave it at that. Okay? You know? That's really the whole premise of the story. That's...

How the show begins. Yeah, it's quite literally a quintessential part of The Sopranos. Without it, the story's not the same. Yeah, I'll just leave it at that. Super fair. Yeah, Gia's going to fill in for Wednesday's episode and then we'll be back on Friday to break down all...

Three episodes plus the finale and the reunion and everything that you guys film when you're over there in Chicago. It's going to be interesting. I mean, a lot of talk happening, a lot of people coming at each other's throats. Yeah, a lot of big dogs. A lot of big dogs barking. A lot of yapping. Yeah, we...

We shall see what happens. I mean, man. Yeah, I did see some funny... This show has been emotionally... Draining. Draining. Yeah. For sure. And it's... People handle it in all different ways. And some people, their way is to just, like, yell at people. Like, I just was...

I was laughing because I saw some TikToks of girls, like, filming their boyfriends or husbands or whatever. And it was like, he makes fun of me for watching Housewives, but here he is. And it was just like, it's like them sitting in their room, like, watching the unnamed show from last week of just Kirk, Ryan, and Dave just screaming over each other for an hour. They're just screaming at each other. And it's like...

everyone's like, oh, the girls are crying. The girls are crying. Kelly's crying. Whatever. Um...

like no they're like yeah what's the difference between crying and people like screaming their heads off and saying outlandish like at the top of their lungs you know what i mean it's like people call girls emotional it's like that's emotional too it's just different kind of emotions absolutely um i do want to say this though because it's like not i don't know if it was clear in the last episode and like everyone's talking about everything now so i'm like i'll just say it um like the big cat quitting stuff like

Nobody knew that that happened, you know, like in the house or there. Like it was only me receiving those text messages and dealing with that. And I wasn't telling anybody and I didn't tell anybody at the house or anything. So it's like, I don't know what I do know what's to come, but I don't know like exactly what's shown. Yeah. But it's like.

I just want that to be known because I'm like, I feel like the way that it was edited seems like everybody knows he quit and like we, it just like moves along and it's like, no, like nobody knew that he quit. Like,

So, yeah, I'll just I'll leave it at that. Yeah. I want to clarify. Exactly. I think that's fair. I don't know. Yeah, I think that's whatever. And they'll be it's Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday this week. And then, like I said, Friday, our Friday episode will recap everything that went down this week. This is the final week, folks. I know. I keep talking. I'm just like, I just want to like.

like reiterate like in the moment the pressure in which I felt receiving those text messages but was like nervous to tell anybody nervous to tell the cameras yeah so that was like yeah you were just mental warfare for you yes it felt like my brain was completely scrambled and I didn't know whether to tell people or not to tell people and I didn't tell people and it was a whatever yeah

On the other side of things, not, you know, not surviving Barstow World, but in real life world, you had your bridal shower this weekend. I love real life world. Yeah, real life world is great. Yeah.

it was so much fun your family absolutely crushed it your mom your sister your aunts you know every everybody cousins everybody involved did such a beautiful job and it was such a beautiful shower like truly I was in the bathroom at one point in the middle of the shower and I just hear like women washing their hands and you know they could be from math side or side it was

It was a big shower. There's a lot of people there. And they were like, this is the best shower I've ever been to. Like, I was just like sitting on the toilet with chuckling to myself. Yeah, it was. It was so awesome. I mean, my mom, my sister, my mother in law, sister in law, they really did such an incredible job putting this together. Like my mom and my sister decorated everything themselves. Like they glued everything.

individual pearls onto each thing and my brother's mother-in-law is so crazy talented um coletti's creations on instagram she does amazing cookies and desserts and backdrops and all these things so she did that um and you know my dessert table was it was gorgeous it was gorgeous everything that they did and um all the time they put in and uh i just couldn't be more thankful um

for my mom and my sister too because my sister I don't think she'll she'll be fine with me talking about this but after my sister had Luca in February almost a year now she's had kind of a tough year she was let go from her job while she was on maternity leave which is incredibly fucked up and I know that she has been struggling a bit and to

like see her put all of her energy and time and everything into creating like the most beautiful shower for me like really means the world because I know that it's not easy when you're going through something yeah like you know put someone else um in front of you like that and that's what she did and I couldn't be more thankful like she did such a beautiful job

And my mom did such an amazing job as well. Like she was she really crushed it. And like I really felt really special and it was so much fun. And like having all my friends and family there and the karaoke was a smash hit. Like people you wouldn't even expect to get up and do karaoke were doing solos. Like it was it was so much fun. Like.

It just was... It was a scene. It was a scene. It was a laugh a minute in my mind, honestly. It's just... The karaoke was so much fun. It was...

You look stunning by the way. - Thank you. - Perfect, and everybody said it. I got my friends, my family, oh my God, she looks so amazing, and you did. - Thank you. - Really so beautiful. But no, I was, karaoke was so funny because just to start it off, your mom takes the mic and she's like, "All right, I want all my sisters up here. "Come on ladies." All the sisters are getting up, they're walking up to the front of the room and the karaoke guy,

he was like testing the sound still. He was like testing the mic still, making sure everything was working, making sure the speakers were working. And he just clicked on a song, but it's just going out of the speakers. It's just shake that ass, shake that ass,

Shake that ass. And your mom's like, all right, come on. Let's go, sister. She's like, all my sisters, get up here. And she's like. And the background is just shake that ass. Shake that ass. No, seriously, you were like crouched over dying. I was crying laughing. It was so funny. And then my mom's like, I want to sing Mamma Mia. And so they put on Mamma Mia. And let me tell you how god awful this performance was. My Aunt Debbie's up there screaming, start over. Start over.

She was, she was all, love Antep, she was off from the beginning and she was like, we gotta bring this back around. Yeah, start over. And she's just randomly going, mama mia, like at random parts and then my sister goes, she gets up there, my sister crushes it, she sits down, she goes, that was a do or die moment for this party. She was like, I had to save the day there. I'm like, you, you,

You did. After the Mamma Mia? The Mamma Mia thing was disastrous. And the way that my mom so confidently called everybody up there to see Mamma Mia, I thought my mom was going to put on a performance of a lifetime. Horrendous. No. Horrendous performance. I think some of them couldn't see the words. Yeah. It was all over the place. It was a small screen.

It was a small screen. It was all over the place. But your sister and your cousin did a fantastic rendition of Baby Got Back. Of Baby Got Back. That really brought everybody back into it. Well, I always make them do Baby Got Back with karaoke because when we were younger, we were at a communion and it was karaoke. And my sister must have been 12 at the time, which makes me like, I don't know, six or seven. I mean, the whole premise of this sentence is hilarious. Like you were at a communion, there was karaoke, and they sang Baby Got Back. Yeah.

And they sang Baby Got Back and they were allowed to sing Baby Got Back. But then the DJ disqualified them after and said they can't win because they said the word horny. They said a curse word. And it's communion. Yeah. So but why did you allow them to sing Baby Got Back in the first place? He must have forgotten the lyrics. So since then, I've been like, you guys got to do Baby Got Back. So they crushed that. Each table came up and did something. And so.

Cousins, friends, everybody did something. You and Kelly did Love Story. We did Burning Up Jonas Brothers with my neighbors who absolutely love the Jonas Brothers as much as

as Fran, maybe even more. So it was so much fun. I mean, really, like karaoke really just brought the house down. And it's like everyone gets up because then he would just play music. So like everyone was just getting up dancing too, which was fun. But yeah, Aunt Debbie really had a moment there. She really did. Yeah, she did. She had a moment throughout the entire thing. But yeah. I mean, she's an absolute gem. Are we going to talk about the raffle situation? I was going to say, I mean, the whole, honestly, raffle.

It was your bridal shower, but boy, was it rigged for me and Kelly. I mean, Fran and Kelly cleaned up at this bridal shower. So what my mom has done at my sister, my sister-in-law, now my shower, is she'll ask family members to, if they want to make a basket and raffle off baskets at the shower. So it like makes it fun for everybody coming. Everybody coming can leave with gifts, not just the bride. And so

And so there was like nine baskets, I think. It was like beach, wine, martini, waffle, ice cream, relaxation. There was an Italian basket, all Italian things in there, like all things like that. And there was also scratch-off tickets on the tables that if you scratch, it's just winner or not a winner. You won that. There was a whole table of prizes.

Yeah. So you can go over, you pick a prize. Like I'm telling you, my mom was like running a carnival. Like, no, it was like, it was like a, I don't know if anybody had this growing up, but in my grade school we had basket bonanza and it was like the big fundraiser for the school. And yeah,

During the school day there was a set time where like you were allowed to go into the gym and put some tickets in and then the Friday night it was a big event for all the parents and like there was a music and like the parent they would do they would you know announce all the winners and You you'd like wait up to see if your parents came home with any of the baskets you wanted I was like I'm back at basket Bonanza. Yes, this is prizes everywhere

Exactly. I'm looking at all the baskets trying to see what I want to put my tickets in. Right. And then Aunt Debbie starts slipping my friends some extra... She was playing favorites. Well, she was playing favorites with you and Kelly. I had to start getting more raffle tickets to give it to my other friends because I was like, all right, Aunt Debbie, you're playing favorites with Fran and Kelly. I think she was playing favorites for herself, too. Yeah, true. I think she had...

a decent amount of tickets in her own hands. She did. But I'm like, what about my other friends here? You're cutting them out and you're giving, you know. And so then I started slipping more tickets to people. And when we were reading off the raffles, Kelly Keegs walks away with two baskets. She gives one to you, beach and waffle. Well, I said, Kelly, hand one over because Aunt Deb was like, Fran, the beach basket I made for you and the martini basket I made for Kelly. You guys got to go home with those ones. Um,

And, you know, we missed out on the martini one, but the beach one, Kelly won. Well, my friend Leah won the martini one. Yes, which was amazing. So I'm like, okay, now it looks like I've rigged this entire thing for all my friends. Meanwhile, Aunt Deb was like, I didn't fucking win anything. Aunt Deb was so mad that when we did the wedding dress, the tissue paper, tissue paper, tissue, toilet paper, the toilet paper wedding dress game,

I know Aunt Debbie wanted to win that. And I was like, I don't think I can give it to her. Like, I was like, I just don't think I can give it to her. Like, there's other better dresses here. And I know Aunt Debbie wants to win this final game. But she just... The other one's better. Like, I cannot give it to her. It's so... Absolutely. But I... No, yeah. I've got... I got a waffle bowl maker now. You did. You did. Put together by Kate. No, it was a great basket. And then I...

Two other prizes plus the bottle of Prosecco from the table. Oh my God. Which your mom looked me right in the eye. No, this is so bad. And my mom called my sister-in-law to apologize yesterday. She should. Because I don't even know how to explain this in words without a visual. Yeah, I know. So my mom put bottles of Prosecco in the middle of the table and

as like a centerpiece but also a prize to win in the end and the game was just a by the way there wasn't really many games that incorporated me it was just carnival games in general which you know what it is great you know like honestly my wish would be for everyone to have fun and get gifts rather than like make that about myself so yeah

this game that she was doing was everyone passed around a coin. And then when she says stop, that person wins the centerpiece. My mom is staring at our table and we're passing the coin around and it, and she says, stop. I literally am handing the coin to your sister-in-law. Handing it to my sister-in-law, Marina, my brother's wife. And my mom sees that exchange happen. Fran handing it because it was like a mid stop. Like it was passing over. Yep. And she goes, stop.

And she looks, he goes, and pass it to your right. And there was a long pause because she had to figure out her rights and laughs because she doesn't know. She was like, now pass it to your right. And Fran goes, oh my God. She just looked me in the eye and rigged that for me. And then Marina, my brother's wife is like, she,

She just took that out of my hands to give to you. And I was like, afterwards, when we went home, I was like, mom, mom, you got to call Marina and apologize for that. You blatantly looked Fran in the eye and rigged that competition for her. You rigged the competition for her and took it out of your daughter-in-law's hands. And she was like, no, no, I didn't do that. It must've looked that way, but I didn't do that. We were like, no, no.

No, that is what happened, Ro. We saw it with our own two eyes. Oh my God. Marina and I are both laughing. I look at Marina. I'm like, please, if you want, like take the bottle of Prosecco. Like if you want. No, we had a million extra bottles of Prosecco. So Marina will have some. But no, I mean, we had a.

We had a blast. It was a grand old time. It was. It really, it was for sure. I mean, it gave me a sneak peek into my wedding, which is going to be insane. Like singing and dancing and Aunt Debbie yelling the entire time. Yep. Yep. Yep. It's going to be. Your mom had a beautiful speech that there was like an echo, an Aunt Deb echo. Yeah. A hundred percent. A hundred percent. Yeah. God bless. Love it. God bless. It was, uh.

It was really great. Yeah, it was a lot of fun. We did play Would You Rather for you, which I am still upset about because I would have had a clean sweep of the show.

But the wording on this one, I just, it was tricky. It was tricky. I thought Fran would have got this. And before the game started, I looked at her and I said, just think extra hard about one of them because it's a trick one. And it was go on a cruise or rough at camping. When I filled it out, I was like, we talk about how much we hate cruises. We'd never go on a cruise. I'm like rough at camping. If that's one or two days for a weekend, it'd be a funny story.

I'll pick rough at camping because I don't want to go on a cruise. I think you saying in a perfect world like threw me off because in a perfect world I was like going because it was like going on a cruise roughing at camping. So in my mind I was like okay perfect world this could this cruise could be you know a a

the most luxurious cruise ship ever created. And the word roughing really misled me because I was like, oh, roughing and camping sounds like no matter what, it's bad. Yeah. I just was like, I'm going to trick people up on this one. It did. It did. It slipped up a lot of people. It did. Because everyone was... You ended up getting 12 out of 13. The answer is out loud. And the whole room was like cruise and you were like, wrong. I was like camping. I don't want to go on a cruise.

If it was go on cruise or glamping, I think I would have picked glamping. Right, right. That was a trick question. It was a trick one. And then Matt came at the end. Beautiful flowers. Everyone clapped for him. Yay, Matt. Yep. Did his part. He did his part. And Luca came at the end. Cutie. So Luca's been watching these, the cutest videos. Like my sister plays him like...

um like the muppet singing rock songs or like you know like a lot of music we're like so she's been playing this andrea bocelli sings to elmo video yeah everyone needs to go watch this video okay first of all it's on andrea bocelli singing elmo to sleep yep and then almost like and then andrea bocelli like belts out the end of the song and elmo like pops up and he goes mr bocelli

please, Elmo's trying to sleep now. He gets mad at Andrea Pacelli for singing and it is so funny. And I played it all weekend and I played it for Luca. I'm like, this is the funniest. I don't know why this is cracking me up, but like Elmo getting mad at Andrea Pacelli for singing because he wants to sleep is amazing. So honestly, entertaining for all ages, in my opinion. But Luca is a little cutie freaking monster. I love him so much.

And yeah, it was a great time. Yeah, it was. One step closer. One step closer. One step closer. I wore my grandma's pearls. Beautiful. My grandma Betty, rest in peace. Perfect for the theme. Perfect for the theme. And yeah, it was incredible. No notes. Loved it. No notes. Great time. Absolutely. Yeah, it's making me excited for my bachelorette now because I'm like, whoa, if that was the bridal shower. Yeah. If that was the bridal shower, I don't know what the bachelorette's going to be. Yeah, can't wait for your bachelorette. Yeah.

Well, your sister's ready to bring the energy. I'll be honest, at a certain point on Saturday, I did think to myself, Noah would really... I think Noah would have had fun here. I'm sure I would have. That thought did cross my mind where I thought, Noah would have had a fun time here today. I should have just met Marty at the bar. Because I also thought, I was like, if they're...

If they're rigging it for us, Noah would have really made out. Noah would have went home with every prize. No, but everybody left with something, to make it clear. Not just Brandon and Kelly. There was gifts and prizes and beautiful things for everybody. Cookies to take home, dessert to take home. They crushed it. Even their little...

seating charts were little pearl cell phone charms which everyone got to take home it was it was so cute and I like had no involvement whatsoever usually I'm always trying to put my hands into things yeah and you know try and help out but um they just absolutely crushed it on their own and it was it was so cool and I felt so special so yeah that was so amazing and yeah that was a first of a

I saw people being like, wait, when are you getting married? Because, you know, it seems like it's far in advance. Yeah. But I am getting married at the end of April and it was just the timing that fit. There's, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I find that the whole like bridal shower right before the wedding has, it's not like,

The normal time. Like, I just find that I see more people having their shower earlier and earlier. It's just when it works. It gets hectic and it's when it works. It really does. And everybody's busy. And I had a couple of really close friends who actually couldn't make it this weekend either. Obviously, don't blame them at all. Like, things, you know, life happens. Yeah. And it's like, that's why it's hard to plan something or...

where you know people can go or they can't go and make sure everyone can go and you pick one date and this person can't go and you kind of just have to settle on something and go, all right, this is what it is. If you can't be there, that's totally okay. But I just have to pick this date. So yeah, super excited for more to come.

Over the summer, First Aid Beauty sent me a nice little care package and I was so excited to try some new items that they have. And one of those items was the facial radiance pads. These facial radiance pads are amazing.

I've been using them since the summer. I really, really love them. And these daily use, yes, you can use them every day, are convenient solution to any skincare needs, whether you have dull skin, uneven skin tone, you name it, these help. They're formulated with lactic and glycolic acid to gently exfoliate, brighten, and help refine the look of pores.

They leave behind a glow and a smooth canvas for makeup. I especially love using these pads before putting on makeup. It feels like it leaves a really smooth skin canvas for you to put makeup on your face and leave that nice glow. They prep your skin so well before you put your makeup on, but then you can also use them at the end of the day too for a second layer.

I got wetting on the brain. I was dying. I woke up Saturday morning to get ready for the shower and I literally started dying laughing in my bathroom by myself because I had a dream Friday night that we were at Rhea Matt's wedding and it was like it was in Europe somewhere. Maybe Italy. Unknown. We didn't really say it in the dream but it was in a beautiful setting and

It was a packed ceremony. It was an interesting set up where it was like a zigzag through the crowd that everybody walked down the aisle. But the aisle was like a snake almost. Everybody really got their moment. And you guys come down at the end and you go up to the front and the ceremony's happening. And then whoever was officiating is a blank face. But it was like, all right, now is the time.

for you to go off and make your pizza. - We're making our own personal pizza. - It was like a part of the ceremony for you and Matt to walk over to the side and there was like a table set up for you to make your own pizza, assortment of toppings, like a brick oven, like everything for you to make this pizza. It was like the ceremony of pizza. It was like something everybody does. Like everyone was like, "Oh, time for the pizza." - It's time for the pizza. - Like time for the pizza. And as you were off making

The pizza, I was speaking to my seatmates, which were Tom Holland and Zendaya. They were at your wedding. Wow. And we had a great catch up. They carved out the time. Yeah, we had a great catch up. I was like, oh, you know, what's in the future for you guys with your wedding? Like asking them. That I remember. It was just, and then I just woke up and I was like dying laughing. I was like, what the fuck was that? Like, it's just. Oh my God. But, oh. Sounds like a great wedding. The wedding is going to be stunning. And I, you know what? I kind of feel like.

there are some elements in the dream that make sense. Like the, like going on the pizza, like not to give too much away for your, for your plans. Yeah. There's pizza at the after party. There's some correlations there that I feel like pizza before. Yeah. Like the pizza's kind of pizza is a thing. Yeah. Um,

Which did make me laugh. That's maybe why this is my rehearsal dinner. Yeah, I think I just had it on the brain that has the pizza. Yeah, right. It was pizza. They're making pizza. I did say that to you. I said, I wonder if they'll let us make a pizza. Yeah, I know. That's maybe why. Now it's all coming together. All right up in here. And I guess I've just really been thinking about Tom and Zendaya, you know. Which, by the way, it seems his...

has really confirmed the engagement. I did not know that Tom Holland's dad had a Patreon that he writes vlogs. I didn't know that either. This is breaking news to me. Oh, yeah. No, he wrote, apparently he wrote in his Patreon. I'm not a subscriber, so I didn't read it myself, but there were articles written about it that he confirmed the engagement. Oh. Which is just like, are you, do you give your dad the green light on that one?

Or is that like asking for forgiveness thing where you're like, hey, dad, maybe don't do that? Or like you call your dad after? What did he say? Dominic Holland confirmed his eldest son's engagement in a Patreon post shared on Friday. Tom's father discussed Tom and Zendaya's recent engagement news.

He began his blog by commenting about how his patrons likely subscribed to him because they are hoping for news about his son. He then offered up a rare insight into the actor's personal life as he touched on Tom's engagement.

Although he noted he wouldn't be revealing any specific details about the couple's special moment, he did share that Tom didn't propose on a whim. Instead, his son had every detail thoughtfully planned out. He wrote, Tom, as you know by now, is very incredibly well prepared. He had purchased a ring. He had spoken with her father and gained permission to propose to his daughter. Tom had everything planned out. When, where, how, what to say, what to wear, etc.

What she said was in stark contrast to his own proposal to his wife that he didn't have a ring or parental permission when he popped the question to Tom's mom. So that's really, you know,

That's really what he said. Just confirmed that it did happen and he was well prepared unlike myself. Yeah, and my son was prepared. And instead of these articles saying he really just did it on a whim or whatever, he was prepared. As we would expect nothing less from Tom Holland than to be prepared. Absolutely. Well, of course he's prepared. Yes. And then what else this week? Sunday, the Eagles had a win. It was great. I was watching. I was rooting. Yeah.

If they lost, they would have been out? Yeah, that would have been it. Okay, sorry. No, no, snow. Usually how the playoffs work. Yeah, yeah. If they lost, that was it. Ha ha! They did win and the Commanders won, which now leads up to the Commanders playing the Lions...

and the Eagles playing the winner of the Vikings-Rams game, if the Bucs had won, we would have been playing the Bucs, which...

We'll see what happens, but the Bucs have always, in the last few years, been a really hard opponent for the Eagles in the playoffs. Todd Bowles just feels like they have had the Eagles number. So it'll be interesting to see how the Vikings-Rams game goes tonight. Some of the other games were blowouts. The AFC games were not...

And the Eagles game was honestly a tough watch. Like, it was... The defense was spectacular, but it was not a big, like, offensive showing. But... Do you think... Yeah. ...maybe a possible big game? I mean...

I will say. I will speak not on that subject. Do not jinx. That's why I didn't even say. Yeah. I get very nervous about things. Just next game, you got to think about this. We just got to get to... We just got to... It's so true that you can't be thinking about... You just got to make it through. Yeah, exactly. Next game. So they'll play the winner of the Vikings-Rams, which they are playing Monday night in Arizona. The game was supposed to be in...

LA, but due to the fires, they have moved locations to Arizona, which is...

You know, L.A., especially with away fans, the Vikings travel very, very well. It's just like it's it's you don't need Vikings fans traveling to L.A. and with everything going on. I mean, it's still it's still going on. It's insane. It's truly insane. Yeah. The Palisades fire is still not contained. And I know I saw reports this morning that there's some weather stories.

supposed to be like today and Tuesday of some high gusts of wind again. So they're just really hoping that they can keep things working in the right direction because that is the way things were progressing. But now, you know, you're fighting against Mother Nature at this point to see what happens. It is. I mean, it's just been awful seeing everything all weekend. It's just heartbreaking. It's just heartbreaking. And you can't even wrap your...

head around what's happening and it's like it just continues going on. But I do want to say I had a couple of girls reach out whose families were affected and they sent some GoFundMes and things like that. So if you

have you know family yourself whoever was affected and you have places to donate send it our way send it to chicks in the office send it to us um you know we would love to help out in any way that we can post them on the yeah we can post them on chicks in the office as well um and happy to help out in any way that we can um so send it our way if you guys have that um but yeah it's just

It's just like it's insane. There's like no words for it. Right. You just keep saying it's crazy. It's insane. But that's really like what there are no words for what is happening. Yeah. It's just and everyone has to be extra careful because if you are are if you are out in the L.A. area, you're

The air quality is just not good as well. So just, you know, if you're outside, I think you can wearing a mask is a smart choice. Um, just from everything, everything that's being burned and, and the air quality, um,

is not great. And it's an interesting time because so much of, and we talked about this a little bit last week as well, but so much of the pop culture news coming out right now is, you know, it's celebrity-based. A lot of celebrities live in LA. A lot of celebrities have been affected. So that has been a big conversation. And we'll talk about it with some of the topics. But it's just...

For some people, it is a lose-lose battle, I feel like. And we'll talk about it. Honestly, the two different people making headlines right now, the most headlines, I feel like it goes to show how...

things can turn in different directions almost like Spencer and Heidi. Every, everybody is really like championing what they're, what they're saying and, and help trying to help them and work, work with them. And then, you know, there's folks that are just maybe trying to help or have somebody who has lost their home and they're trying to help and,

they just get ripped apart no matter what like it's the celebrities can't post charitable donations or like GoFundMes is a crazy premise to me like everybody like Mandy Moore having to adjust her caption of her post like posting a GoFundMe to help her I believe it was like her brother-in-law and sister-in-law and they're like

And people are just being like, you're rich. Give them the money. Like, I just think that that's a crazy premise. It's also like, just because somebody is sharing... And they're not helping. Right. It's like, just because someone's sharing a link doesn't mean that themselves are not helping. Yeah. They're just trying to get the word out more. And it's like when people say...

you know, the Kardashians, why are they posting the links? And it's like, well, just because they're posting the links doesn't mean that they're not also donating. And then here's the thing. If then people donate and they... And then it's like, no, it's never enough. Right. And then if people donate and they say they donated, then people say they're only doing it so they can have their name...

like out there and they say it's performative there's a lot of people who donate that don't put their name they don't post it and that is awesome so it's like the donation shaming or pushing or curiosity and did they donate how much did they donate well they didn't post it they donated did they actually donate it's like

Not everything has to be posted, but if they do share, that's also spreading the word out more and more people are seeing it, which means more people donate. It's like... It's just like, I don't know. People just...

They just want to be mad at everything and they're mad at the world and obviously it's a shitty situation so people look for things to be mad at because they're mad at the situation. Yeah, the Tart trip is happening right now also, which is just unfortunate timing. Bad timing. The Tart trip, tripping with Tart, you guys know it, you either love it, you hate it, but it's happening right now and

they are on a beautiful island in the British Virgin Islands and it is it's tough for I'm sure the TARC team to navigate it seems my guess would be it's tough for the people that are on the trip to navigate and I've seen criticism I've not like I've seen like what you know I've seen both sides and I find that

They're, you know, it's a little bit of everything. Like, I think these trips rub people the wrong way regardless, like anyway. For sure. People hate the Tart trips. Yeah. Without this being like, there's always controversy surrounding the Tart trips. Yeah. Even without this happening. And so they and Maureen Kelly, the CEO, founder of Tart,

Tartt has really posted a lot about how the Tartt team is giving back and donating and money they're donating and other things that they're donating and that they are going to do the same type of trip in March for first responders, firefighters, people who lost their homes. It's like you can basically be...

entered in a chance to win if you are in that category to then go on a trip like this in March that they're going to do. And that's the way that they have kind of reckoned with having this trip happen at this at the same time. And they're a way that they're, you know, are trying to to show that they are that they are giving back. But it is it's

It's tough. And it's tough for the people on the trip because it's like a lot of them are trying to spread awareness and show that you can donate and post places that you can donate. And they're doing this. And then it's like, boop, I'm on an island. So it's tricky. It is. It is. And as far as Tarko's too, it's like this is their big thing. Like this is the –

We don't do billboards. We don't do like classic advertising, all these things. Like our Tart trip is our big thing we do. It's millions of dollars that they put into this trip. So at the same time, it's like they are –

Their hands are tied, too. It's like that's... Right, a couple days before and you can't cancel it. Yeah, so much money goes into having these trips. And I do think that it is a great thing that they are donating and they're matching donations and they're going to have this other trip and...

It's just like, it's unfortunate times. Optics wise, it'll never. Yeah. It's just, it's just like the time you can't have people on an island. And then some people are choosing to share more and less than who are, you know? Right. Like I think there's some people that I saw on like the Tart TikTok that was like, Oh my God, I didn't even realize that they were there. Yeah. I think some people are not choosing or choosing not to share that they're there. Um,

um it's yeah it's it's definitely a confusing situation and i can see how everybody involved is confused on how to go about handling it yeah for sure but yeah it's uh i'd imagine the people of tart were like we are we already we already get destroyed for this trip yep and

This is. Right. And in that sense, I think it's like always they're like, oh, you know, even when people are shitting on it, it's it's that's the buzz that they create with the trip. Right. That it isn't. This is not. Yeah. This is bad buzz. Yeah. This is. Yeah. Tone deaf. But this is not. It's not the it's it's not the same. So, yeah, I think, you know, like I said, it's just.

double-edged sword there. For sure. Definitely hard to figure out how to handle that. But we will get into some other topics. I mean, mostly what's going on right now is everybody talking about the fires and people who are affected and things getting postponed. Meghan Markle, she postponed her Netflix show due to the fires.

more about Spencer and Heidi. They've kind of taken over TikTok with the fires and a little bit talk about Ariana Grande. And she says she's everywhere right now, but she does have a deluxe album of Eternal Sunshine. And we will be doing weekly watch reports. So let's get into the rest of the show.

This is the way to a healthy scalp. Get to the root of your healthy hair goals with Way's Scalp Care that will get your strands looking stronger, fuller, and healthier. Their hair and body products are made to be effortless and work for you and your routine. I will say I absolutely love the Way Scalp Serum. It has become a staple in my routine.

I use it often. I love using it after I get out of the shower. And it's lightweight, so I feel like I don't have to, you know, if I'm using it at night and I wake up in the morning, it's not like, oh, my God, I have to wash my hair right away. It's like it sits nicely. You can still go about your day. And I feel like it is really balancing and hydrating my scalp. 100% saw thicker, fuller-looking strands after using the scalp serum, according to an expert grading study.

The Daily Scalp Serum can be used day or night with wet or dry hair, and it soothes irritation and keeps your hair stronger and fuller through a healthy, hydrated, balanced scalp. So whey is truly a full part of my routine. Every time I wash my hair, I love their anti-dandruff shampoo because in the winter, your girl gets a little flaky. So I use that conditioner, get out of the shower, the scalp serum. It's perfect. And then, you know, the whey leave-in conditioner, of course, perfect.

So the way to a healthy scalp starts here. Go to T-H-E-O-U-A-I.com and use code CHICKS for 15% off any product. That's T-H-E-O-U-A-I.com, code CHICKS. So we'll just continue talking about what we had been talking about. But Spencer and Heidi have really kind of taken over TikTok right now. I think people are seeing them as kind of like...

you know, I don't know if positivity is the word because they unfortunately lost their house and all of their belongings. But I think Spencer, you know, gets on there with some humor and people find comfort in that. And Heidi's song is now going viral again on TikTok. And people are trying to help out. I actually, Spencer, he got me with this. He was like,

you know, everything I've always read about myself for the last how many years has been Spencer Pratt is broke. Reality Star is broke. Spencer Pratt's broke. Now that I lost... Broke and not a celebrity. Yeah. And now that I lost my house, everybody's saying I'm rich. Yeah. And I was like, I mean, that is a very fair point to bring up. It's like...

It people just they go, oh, they're rich. They're famous. They're on TV. They have money. That is not always the case. Yeah. And even if it is, the case is still incredibly sad. And they're really posting up a storm on tech talk right now. Yeah. I think, you know, Spencer just has that like he just has such an interesting brain, you know, where it's.

uh he totally finds he's he is somebody that finds i think like i think he would say you know laughter is the best medicine type of way sometimes for something where he's enjoying sharing and and having these moments and like they're like oh you want to support let's uh let's bump heidi's album up the itunes chart and they've done it that chart it's they have gone to

I believe number one. Took it in the number one in the UK as well. He's been posting a ton. He changed his Instagram bio to married to a pop superstar number one artist. He is really just pumping that up and pumping up the love for Heidi and in support of the family. I was...

Even on TikTok, too, you know, he was making videos and he's joking like, all right, I'm at 45 seconds. I'm going to talk for 15 more seconds so that it hits a minute. So it qualifies for the creator funds. So here I go. All right. We're almost there. And he'd be like, OK, we're there. And they've even been talking about how because everyone's like, oh, my God, Spencer and Heidi, like we would watch a show.

for you guys right now, like having to rebuild and what life looks like for you guys right now. And it seemed like he had said, you know, they had gone to their agents and the agents maybe had a meeting with Hulu today. He said that there was a chance. So who knows? I think everybody would...

would watch that show. And I have seen some funny tweets as well of being like, damn, us, like the millennials really got it wrong about Spencer and Heidi. Like these were, these were, these were the ones. It is funny to maybe give it, to switch things around for it, for them now. It is true. It is funny to think back, like watching the Hills. It's like they were seen as the enemies. Yeah. Spencer and, and Heidi were seen as enemies. But when I, when I do watch some clips back from early Hills, um,

Not like... Heidi and Spencer, they lose you a lot, I think, when it goes on. But when Heidi's still bubbly and all that...

There are times where Lauren's a little, you know what I mean? Like a little bit mean to Heidi. And it's like you watch back and you're like, damn, it's watching it back in a different light. It's always interesting. But yeah, they were kind of seen as like the enemy. Yeah. And now they're, you know, the face of TikTok right now. Now, I mean, TikTok, I think it's about to go away like in a couple of days. Does it look good for TikTok? Yeah.

The Supreme Court hearing did happen last week on Friday. And from what it appears is the Supreme Court is going to, you know, uphold the law that has already been passed. That is kind of what the was being spread around Friday afternoon of like the Supreme Court hearing.

Seems to have moved quickly on this one. Supposed to have an official ruling very soon of how they feel about it. But you know people were you could you could stream and listen to the to the questioning and everything. And it didn't seem like it was going in TikTok's way. So it's also like a gray area of what exactly is going to happen on January 19th I guess.

Like, I've been trying to do research on it and haven't found, like, a direct answer. Like, the representative attorney for TikTok is just like, even in the hearing, is like, it'll go dark. It's like, what does that mean, it'll go dark? I keep seeing people say that, like,

basically it'll be removed from the app store. If it's on your phone, you'll still be able to like use it. But at some point you can't get updates on it. Right. Like it'll just kind of fall apart. Right. But like the app isn't going to disappear from your phone. It'll be on your phone. It'll be on your phone. But it's like if there is an update or something, you won't be able to update it. I saw someone say that like TikTok usually does like at least two updates a week. So like at some point it's going to stop working. It just won't work.

Yeah, I guess it's like that. It's just been like a vague, like, it'll go dark. It feels like womp womp. Yeah. I mean, it happened with Vine. Like we did, you know, we forget we did have that happen with Vine. We were just, the plug was pulled. The plug was pulled. But people, I think, were less addicted to Vine than they were TikTok. I just really thought, and I still think that something could happen, even if it's like

Even if it does quote unquote go dark for post January 19th, that there's a world where it's back after that. But I don't know. It's quite really hard to tell at this point. And it is a political game here. So we do have a new president coming in January 20th. And...

Who's to say what things will be done to potentially try and bring TikTok back? Because it seems like...

He is in favor of having TikTok at this point. So I don't know if moves will be made or not or if we're really like if it's going to be gone, gone, gone, gone. Yeah, I guess we'll find out. Yeah. We'll find out soon. We'll see on January 19th. Spencer's making sure he's collecting now. Getting that collector's fund in. Make sure that payment is coming ASAP. Right, for sure. Make sure he transfers everything to his checking and his savings and the whole thing. Yeah, he's got to make sure that... Isn't it normally at the end of the month? Yeah.

What? Like creator fund payments. I don't know how it works. I don't have mine set up. I have no idea how it works. Well, I hope it's not because if it's end of the month, it may be an issue. But if it's like TikTok, you can still... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know how any of that stuff works on TikTok. It's like, like I said, just...

The language has not been super clear on, like, what exactly will happen to TikTok. Well, the thing is, there'll be a new app to just jump in. And if it's not, it'll be, you know, everyone will be on reels. Yeah. So we'll just pop on over to there, I guess. Yeah, I guess everyone, yeah. They'll have to scroll somehow. Yeah, right. You gotta keep those thumbs moving. Yeah. Meghan Markle postponed her Netflix show. Yeah. This, once again, lose-lose for Meghan Markle, I think. Mm-hmm.

People were already shitting on the show to begin with. Right. And I think it's super fair to postpone a show that is like, I'm sure glorifying a beautiful Southern California life and a home and the food and hosting and gathering and like all those things. Um, and putting that on pause for right now, I get it. And they got, uh,

They're getting heat right now for going and volunteering publicly. And they're, it's like... They're getting heat for that? Yeah, it's like, oh my God, they're getting, they're ambulance, basically ambulance chasers just looking for a photo op.

I mean, what are people supposed to do? I know. It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. It's like a very tiring place to live in where if you do something, then you get told that you're doing it for attention. If you don't do something, why aren't you doing that? If you do something in private, they don't know. It's like, it's just too much. It started from, and she posted it on X, this Family Ties actress, Justine Bateman.

She re-shared a video of, you know, local Fox station sharing footage of Harry and Meghan visiting fire victims.

And the original tweet was, the dumb reporter called her Princess Markle. The two disaster chasers came out for some new PR and attention. And Justine Bateman reposted it and said, Meghan Markle and Harry are no better than ambulance chasers. What a repulsive photo op they achieved. They are, quote, touring the damage. Are they politicians now? They don't live here. They are tourists. Disaster tourists. So... Damn. Yeah. It's another, like, yeah, crazy thing. I think...

For them, too, Harry is... That's what Harry was raised doing. It's like the, you know, the UK... That is true. The royals. I know he is not in that position now, but it is ingrained in him. Like, when something would happen, tragedy, natural disaster, something, and, you know, the queen or...

Whoever it is would go visit with the people. And I just feel like in this sense, Harry's like, oh, well, that's what we'll do. In this sense, it's our, you know, they are in there in Montecito. It's a little farther away. But that's where I would think the thought process would go to. And there were reports last week, you know, they opened their homes to their friends who need a place. And they had that conversation.

happened when they were basically struggling to find a place and freaking Tyler Perry offered them his home. And so I feel like they're just...

Trying to pay it forward in a way. And I, that is just a really harsh label. Like to be calling them ambulance chasers, I think is a pretty, a pretty harsh and unfair label. I agree. It's like, like I said, it's like, if you do something to help, then people say you're attention seeking. If you don't do anything at all, people said, what are they doing to help? It's, it's, um, yeah. Yeah. So the show has moved to the show will now come out in March, uh,

is when they moved the show so apparently the call came from Megan yeah I mean here's the thing if it's surrounding California get it the other thing is though like people do want a little bit of distraction as well so like not everyone could stop their shows and like stop everything that's going on like people do have to continue on with their lives as well so but if it's surrounding California then that makes complete sense to move it along and if that's Megan's call that's Megan's call uh

Last topic, Ariana Grande, she said that she has a deluxe version of Eternal Sunshine, but she feels like she's been everywhere. So she's not sure when she wants to put it out. At this point, just put it out because...

Your fans, a lot of Ariana Grande's fans, think she's too focused in acting. They want music. Well, here, you get a little bit of both. You get a little Wicked. You get a little music. There you go. I mean, and the thing is, she put out an album this year. People are like, you know, she's focused on acting now. She's not doing... She did put out an album this year. She did. Last year. Oh, yeah. Well, 2024. Yeah, sorry. I mean...

This 2024. Yeah. We just got into 2025. In the last year. In the last calendar year she has put out an album. Within this last calendar year. Um,

But she was quoted saying, I'm out there so much right now, I want to let my children miss me for two seconds. I'm excited to surprise them with it at some point, but I'm still mulling over the timing in my head. It's not the end of Peaches just yet, but she's going in the closet for a minute. The album is so concise, and I didn't want to add songs just for the sake of it. The new tracks are short, but they really count. Talking about the deluxe version. That's super fair. I think she's got to be like...

I mean, there was a time that she had said that she was going to tour, right?

do some sort of mini tour in between wicked and wicked 2 and That idea I think has been scrapped which Makes sense. I feel like she has been traveling all over the world and now it's like award season so she is just locked in and that aspect as well and When the time is right for her to release that music I'm sure she will and

we're getting a lot of Ariana Grande right now. So I think that's kind of fair. Yeah, it is fair. Maybe it's to space it out. But I'm thinking just pile on top. I know, but when you're... I just know when you're in your own head thinking about it, you're just like, God...

Give it a rest. Too much of me. That's how I feel about. Like looking in the mirror, you know, like God, give it a rest. That's how I feel about myself right now. Seriously. That's truly how I feel about myself. I'm tired of hearing myself probably feels the same. Right. I probably feels it a million times more, but that's how I said last week. I'm tired of hearing things about myself at this point. Um,

But, you know, yeah, me and Ariana Grande, one and the same. Exactly. I actually dressed as Audrey Hepburn this weekend to throw in my hat in the ring at the biopic as well. Yeah, right. I mean, you would crush that audition. Yeah. Take Ariana down. Yeah, you know. Everybody else. No, I think that that completely makes sense for her. Wait, there was one more thing I wanted to talk about. What was it?

Oh, the Sidney Sweeney thing. Oh, I thought you were kidding. No, I was dead serious. Oh, so Sidney Sweeney. I was dead serious. So people think that she's pulling... I thought this was funny. They think she's pulling the whole thing, the whole Glenn Powell thing again with a new co-star. Yeah. Who was in It Ends With Us. I'm blanking on his name. Yeah, his name is... He played...

Brendan Sklenner? Yeah, Brandon Sklenner. Sklenner, yeah. He is the Atlas in Ends With Us. And now he is starring in The Housemaid with Sidney Sweeney. They're actually filming around a lot of parts of New Jersey. My aunt texted me this weekend and was like,

They're filming at this house in like where my aunt lives. Oh my God. Stunning home. Holy crap. Yeah. Send me the Zillow link for it. It looked absolutely unbelievable. But they were seen going to a show on Broadway together. So we actually posted the pictures on the Chicks in the Office account. And...

Not Skinny, but Not Fat, Amanda commented and said, oh no, is she doing the thing? And people really picked that up. Page Six posted a screenshot of the comment. I was laughing because I saw the captions like, is the housemaid press tour going to be anyone but you 2.0? Not Skinny, but Not Fat comment via at Chicks in the Office. Because...

Anytime now you see her, it's like they're co-stars. They're going out together. No one else. It's just the two of them. And it's funny because that's just like, of course your brain is just going to go right back to that same place. Because that's how we felt. But it's like, we're not going to get God again, guys. Yeah. And it feeds into it because she's giving him the eyes.

in the picture or at least I'm like thinking she's like oh look at me but we can't get caught again it is what it is I mean she literally just posted pictures clearly Sydney Sweeney likes to bond with her co-stars for sure you know what I mean like this is what we're gathering she likes to get into character method acting she's like hang with her co-stars Sydney Sweeney's a method actor I think she also is just like down to hang with the guys

You know? I mean, did you see that sorority post? When she wrote, like, my favorite guy. I mean, frat post, not sorority. She wrote, like, my favorite guys. And, like, everyone's like, when did Sydney Sweeney become a frat sweetheart? Right, right, right, right. Yeah. You know. I know. And it's like, guys, we can't fall down that rabbit hole again. We know what was done during Anyone But You. I, Sydney Sweeney, like, just posted a carousel of photos of, like,

New Year's Christmas like holidays and in one of them she's kissing her fiance and there's people you know let's not forget about the whole fiance thing she has a fiance she's engaged but she's a method actor and she likes to spend time with her co-stars and it's smart because the formula is there and people are going to talk about it it worked flawlessly for anyone but you we all saw it we

We all saw the movie. And the movie was great. And are we going to watch this one if these two are seen out together all the time? Yes. Exactly. Yes, we are. Promote that movie, Sydney. I know people have been talking about The Housemaid because it is... For me, at least. What does? I say he doesn't have the Glenn Pell it factor. Oh, well, you never know. Maybe he will. Maybe he will. The Housemaid was a very popular book that is now being adapted into this movie. And...

She's probably going to leave the marketing charge once again. Smart. Hey, if she keeps this up, I'm seeing the movie. You know what I mean? She's going to lock us all in. We're going to see the movie. Of course. All right, that wraps up the topics.

What time is it? It is game time. All right, it's time for the Weekly Watch Report, where we talk about the things we watched this week. Weekly Watch Report on Monday. Weekly Watch Report on Monday. Weekly Watch Report on Monday. Weekly Watch Report on Monday. Traitors. There was a murder. The traitors.

It's freaking back. Yeah, it's back. And it's back and it's great. It's great. Now, first 20 minutes of episode one, I was like, I don't know. By the end of episode one, I was like, I need to stay up and watch all the rest of the episodes. Like, I'm like, where are they all? The chills. Well, but this is spoilers, by the way, if you haven't watched Traitors. Spoiler alert. Traitors. First three episodes. Traitors. Traitors. If you don't want to know who was murdered. Murdered on Traitors. Traitors.

Then opt out now. Yep. The chills. Now, you're not a survivor gal. I'm not. But I am a survivor gal. And when Boston Rob comes in and they tell him he's going to be a traitor, I'm hooting and hollering at my TV. I'm like, this is...

is what I came for. You know what I mean? A little... Pardon me for a second. It was like, it's too obvious that he would be a traitor. Yeah. You know what I mean? They're making it too obvious to make Boston... The delayed entrance was good for that. Yes. Because if Boston Rob comes in and they make him a traitor right off the bat, bad. Everyone's going to know Boston Rob's a traitor. Boston Rob being a traitor coming in late with Wes, another one, which...

This is, like, so classic. Maria just did a reality TV competition where Matt's like, I fucking hate him. Like, da-da-da-da-da. Like, about Wes and the challenge. I'm like, he played a good game. I'm like, he plays good games. And he's like, is this coming from someone who's trying to defend all their actions on a reality show? Or what? I'm like, yes, it is coming from someone who's trying to defend their actions on a reality show. And Wes plays good games. He does. So...

yeah, got chills at Wes. I don't know

The other guy, why am I blanking on his name already, which is so rude. He's on Big Brother. Apparently he's great on Big Brother too. I've never watched. I don't know the Big Brother people. I don't know Big Brother at all. I've never watched Big Brother. People always say that we would love it, but I've never gotten involved in Big Brother. But Boston Rod being a traitor, it's like, wow, this is icing on the cake for an amazing season. He's already playing a fantastic game. He runs laps and laps above everybody else in their heads. Like he just knows.

knows how to play it like he just knows how to be like a likable guy who people want to talk to the round table flipping it back on on tony on tony and tony's another one that he sticks out as someone is survivor that you know and he felt like they were unfairly pointing their fingers at him and and they were because he was a faithful uh poor wells oh wells got fucked wells got

Fuck, I was like, no! I was so mad. I was so mad too. And I feel like Wells would have been so good because he actually understands the game. And I saw people talking about this online as well. Like, there are some of these reality stars, like they're going on the traitors. But they are, but they're not like,

They're not reality competition people. So they don't really understand the game. And they're just like flying by the seat of their pants a little bit. And Wells during that vote when they're voting and then like there's random votes thrown in and under his breath he's like, oh, we're fucking burning votes. Like I was like, oh, like potential wasted for how well he could have done on that show. And honestly, he was spot on when he said waste of a vote. Yeah. Because listen-

Tom Sandoval obviously fucking blows. He sucks dick. He sucks. He's awful. He's an awful guy. Even watching him on this show, his whole demeanor is terrible. He's an awful guy. Well, he's just kind of creeping everybody out. Right. And, you know, whatever. This is not to defend Tom before anybody says I'm defending Tom. I want that to be very clear because there is no defense of Tom. But, Chrishell, it felt like

It felt like looking for like a social media moment right there. Voting Tom. Yeah. Right. Like, I know that you're a liar and this and that. Like, yes, we all know. But we need you need to use Tom to your advantage right now and put your heads together and like forget that for a second because he's on this show and you got to work with him because that's how traders goes. And you just got, you know what I mean? And to be fair, Tom was pointing out.

his fingers at Chris shell. Yeah. So I do understand how that would make her shell want to go for Tom, but you cannot burn a vote. So like Wells being like, you're just burning a vote because you're mad at him is, is correct. It's like, yes. Was Tom wrong for just automatically pointing his fingers at Chris shell? Yes. It seemed unfounded. He was just doing it because he's Tom.

Chris shell then burning her vote to vote for Tom just because she's mad was not the smart play was not the smart play there. And unfortunately, Wells went home, you know, I know. And Tom is just somebody that like I will say is is amazing.

entertaining in a show like this because he's so clueless and thinks he's so smart and he's onto people and he just could not be more dead wrong like i was even just laughing at him being like i opened my eyes first and i looked around and like this is what i thought it's like no you can't read any of these people you're absolutely clueless oh it's hilarious to watch him clueless um

And it's been very interesting to see who has emerged to the front of the pack. I mean, talk about somebody who's watched reality TV and was probably really fucking pumped to be on the show and probably tried really hard to be on the show. Dylan Efron. Obsessed. He's obsessed.

He knows what he's doing. King. I mean, he's like the Pylopita this season. He's smart. He gets it. I mean, he is already on the scent of Bob the Drag Queen and knows it. And these shows are always so entertaining, but watching can be so frustrating because you're like, oh, why is anybody listening to Dylan? Listen to Dylan. And I just like Bob the Drag Queen.

is defending, like really defending himself to the point where I'm like, doesn't that spark any red flags in anybody else? Danielle also too. I mean, I don't know Danielle, once again, don't watch Big Brother, but the fucking, like the tears and it's the other...

Jeremy is the other survivor guy. It's Jeremy being like, I'm not buying what she's selling. And he's so right because they shouldn't. She's doing too much. There's somebody... You need to have a sense of aloofment, I think, which is what...

Who's the other traitor? The blonde survivor. What she's doing, I think, has been smart. Where it's like, everyone's like, there's no way it could be her. She's out to lunch. She doesn't even know what's going on. That is kind of the way I think you need to play it a little bit. Because...

When you overact or it's the dramatics are there, it's going to draw attention to you. But boy, is it entertaining. And I think Boss and Rob is going to have to save their asses a lot. Like already, episode two, three we're at, and Rob is having to kind of save their asses, jumping in to get another person out to save them. So God, I just really hope...

I really hope Dylan doesn't get a target on his back. I know. Because Bob the drag queen is going to want him out fast. I know. But Dylan's got to get the other people on his side. I know. He's so good. I'll be so sad if he leaves. I know. Me too. He's like, I'm rooting for him entirely. And I was sad about Dorinda because I really think Dorinda could have been quite the character. Yeah.

Robin has emerged as someone who, you know, she's got thoughts and she's inserting her opinion. They're wrong, but she's leading the charge a little bit. People are listening to her. I just feel like Dorinda really, it was too much. We saw a glimpse of what could have been with Dorinda and we lost her. Two amazing characters.

Just personality characters in the house of Dorinda and Ion, I think, really would have brought some funny, funny moments. Ion was so upset about Wells. She was like, he's the only one teaching me the game. Wells was being so nice to her. Wells sucks because I think he would have been really, really good competing. But there are already some alliances forming. We've got Nikki, Daryl.

Nikki Bella and Gabby and Chris shell kind of form in their little girl group, which they are feeling strong. And then of course there's always like the game players that sort of all try and, and, and stick together and find their way. Um,

The housewives are entertaining. So I hate that there would be house. Like I love even Dolores just like picking up their frames after the after Alan like drops the frame. She's like, oh, my friends, let me pick them up. Like, oh, love, love her. So it is very entertaining. I love seeing on TikTok the younger generation. Have you seen the Boss and Rob edits of people being like everybody's making fun of the way Boss and Rob looks on this show? Like all the other characters, all the other people are like.

Take off your backwards hat. You look stupid. Like all these things. And there are all these survivor fans making edits of like, you don't know Boston Rob like I do. And it's just dramatic music to all old pictures of like when he was younger and so hot. All the comments are like, wait, what? Boston Rob was it. You know what I mean? Like he was, he was it.

So I'm a Boston Rob fan and I can't wait to see him crush this game. Hopefully they don't sniff him out. But I think if he keeps trying to help people and use that to his advantage, then maybe they won't sniff him out. But I'll give Traders a B plus right now. It's really good, but I don't want to jump ahead and give it, you know. Yeah. My one final thing is whatever they're doing. And I saw people talk about this too. Whatever they are doing in the...

confessionals some sort of filter or something their eyes all look so weird what are they doing why do their eyes look like that and on top of the confessionals when they go to bed they don't actually sleep there and I wish they would just be honest because showing cuts of Dylan Efron pretending to work out or them in the bath I'll take all of those but it's just like

Them doing his ab workout in the room. But I'm like, are they actually sleeping there? Like, they have these beds. Are they or are they not? They're like, Dylan, we're going to need you for a couple seconds here. Just, yeah, that shirt off. Yeah. Here's a kettlebell. Go crazy. Right, right. We know who your brother is. So, you know, this is what you signed up for. I also love people because it's like they have their shows underneath their names. It's like Dylan Efron down to earth. And people were like,

I thought they were just describing him as a down-to-earth guy. They were just like, Dylan Efron, down-to-earth guy. And you know what? He is a down-to-earth guy. We'll give that to him. I really hope he sticks around because I'm loving the game he's playing already. Hopefully they're on...

a good track. We'll see what happens because I feel like last season at this point, like they had no clue. There was no suspicions. And this one, like the names are being thrown around already. So we'll see what happens. But I don't know. Yeah, please somebody fix that filter. I don't know what they did, but like their eyes like look fake.

They don't have pupils. It does look a little... I don't know what they did, but it looks... Especially for Carolyn. I'm like, ah! It's those beauty cams. I don't know what they were doing, but so far, so good. Yeah, great. I also watched the Avicii documentary. Very sad, obviously. Cool to watch him get his start, but obviously a very unfortunate story to be told about Avicii, if we're being honest. But good documentary. Feels, once again, what did you rate it?

I probably gave it like a B plus. Yeah. If I remember. Well, okay. If I'm going to give it, I'll give it a B. Yeah. And I'll move Traders to an A minus because I really was so fucking locked into Traders. Like I can't, I can't lower it just because I want to keep room. Nope. It could stay an A minus the whole time, you know? That's true. So watching Sopranos. Sopranos has been my like go to bed show lately. Yeah. Yeah.

So pleasant to fall asleep to the Sopranos. I don't fucking know. Honey, put on a Soprano so I can fall asleep. No, that's literally. My lullaby. Let me tell you, that was word for word what happened last night. We finished Traders. We're in bed. Matt goes, all right, what do you want me to put on? I said, I was like laying on the side. I said, put on Sopranos. I'm just like, let me just fall asleep to the Sopranos right now. Love it. I didn't watch anything else.

That's really it. Yeah. I will give Traitors an A- as well. I think it is. Shake your hand from afar. I have a pinched nerve. That's not good. No. And not good for flying, too. It is what it is. Which Traitor season do you like more, season one or season two?

Two. I never watched Traitors. I'll be honest, I didn't watch one. I didn't pick two. I could not have been more adamant about two. One never got the steam that two got. One, no one talks about one. Do you think I should watch season two before season three or just catch up right now?

Or just start on season three? I think you just start season three. Just watch season three so you can be in on the conversations happening now. Get in or get out, bro. There's no correlation to the second season. Yeah, if it's like Love Island where it's like Kossum or it's like, I don't even know what that means. No, just jump aboard. You'll learn. No, you'll pick up on it fast. I mean, that's how I felt about watching season two when I didn't watch season one. Early enough. Yeah, exactly.

Okay, what else did I watch? The first two episodes of Special Forces are out. I watched that. Stephen Baldwin, quite the character. Quite the character. He tried, spoiler, if you haven't watched, spoiler. Spoiler. But spoiler, he tried to basically get the doctor on the show to

to like say that he had to leave so that he didn't have to quit. - He pulled a big hat. - It was, it was. - Yeah, pretty much. - He goes to see this doctor, he goes to see this doctor, he's like, "Now let me ask you, do they pay you to be here?" Like he's like asking him all these questions. The doctor's like, "Why are you asking me this?" He's like, "Let me just give you a scenario.

Like I have to be here, but I have a project after this that like it's paying me big bucks. And the one thing is I can't be injured.

It keeps saying, can't be injured. He's like, and he's like already starting to feel like he's injured. And the doctor's like, what are you, what are you telling me, buddy? Like, you want me to like look at your shoulder and be like, oh, your shoulder's fucked. Like you got to go. Like that's like basically what he was trying to get to happen. And then they were just like, no, he's, he's just, he's quitting. It's fine. Like it's totally fine. And he did the first task, which let me tell you, this show is so fucking crazy. Showing up in Wales, like,

And them being like, all right, first task, you're going to get on this speedboat and you are going to jump from the speedboat onto a moving helicopter in the sky. And you're going to jump on the edge of the helicopter, pull your body up and into the helicopter. And they're like, okay, that's number one. What happened when people fell into the water? Oh, just crash, like just splash.

It looked painful. It also didn't look like good weather. The water's probably freezing. You jump and some people just missed the bar completely. Then some people can't pull themselves up. But yeah, the other person eliminated was also not quite a surprise either. But I'm excited to see...

everybody's story. I just really like Special Forces in the sense that they really kind of like dig deep into the person's background and the things that they've been through in life, which has been very interesting. Speaking of, back to the traitors for two seconds. It is so clear and so funny that Sam...

Britney Spears' ex-husband clearly can't say anything about Britney Spears. He said zero airtime and said nothing because obviously the only reason he's there is because he's Britney Spears' ex-husband and can't speak about Britney Spears. But I'm just like, why are you here? So what do they refer to him as when they introduce him? Sam?

Actor. Actor. But Special Forces, I'll give a B. It's a solid start. I'm interested to see who makes it, where it goes, because it is, God, it is tough. It is tough. I know everybody's already jumping on

The Kayla Nicole stuff because right away it's of course and I'm sure Kayla has had like 50 other conversations but the one they're going to air is her being like I'm Travis Kelsey's ex like and her like basically that being the topic of conversation and even in her moment with.

The staff, she's like, they show her an article about people hating her for the Taylor stuff, blah, blah, blah. You know, like that's kind of like the whole story. And it sucks because like she's trying to shed that. But at the same time, it's why she's there. Right. So they kind of have to address it. Yeah, exactly. Lioness, I'm almost done with season two. I watched episodes five, six, seven.

Not loving it as much as season one, but I think it is still very good. I'll give it a B. I kind of got lost a little bit in the middle. Sometimes, like, the show, I have to Google a lot of stuff because they're speaking in all the acronyms of all the government agencies and the things that are going on, and I'm like, I don't know what the fuck this means. So sometimes it's a little tough for a little gal like me to follow. But you're still enjoying it? Yeah, it is. It's still good. Um...

Abbott Elementary, I'm all caught up. Love. I wanted to catch up so I could watch the It's Always Sunny crossover. Very funny. Like teaching Charlie how to read. A lot of laughs. I will give that episode specifically, I will give an A-. I thought it was a great episode. I didn't realize that they're doing a swap. Like they're going on Always Sunny. And then I watched two movies. Onora.

which I thought was fantastic. Really, really good. Like Noah said, definitely one you don't want to watch with your parents. But it's fast-paced, interesting. She is so good. And it's just like...

It was a great ending, I thought. Yeah. Like, just all around really, really well done. She has no social media, which I thought was interesting. That is interesting. I'll give that an A. I thought it was really, really good. And I recommend watching, especially because I feel like, you know, it's flown under the radar a little bit. And then I watched Amelia Perez. Yeah.

not good like i don't know i don't know i don't know i tried i said open mind i'm gonna try and find and like there are elements of good you can find out of it i thought like the acting was for what they were working with good um i thought carla was great i thought zoe was great selena somewhere in the

I could not get past the music. And not in the sense that like, oh my God, it's a musical. The music was bad. Like the music just was not good. Yeah. And you love a musical. I love a musical. If it was a good musical, you would be into it. 100%. Like I just, yeah, I really...

Just wasn't buying what they were selling. I don't really understand the hype it's getting. I'm not quite sure what happened there. I don't know if it was like the festival circuit and it got so much praise early on that everyone was just like jump on the bandwagon of giving it praise. Like Cannes fucking loved it. And I'm like, is it just French bias because it's a French director? And they're like, oh, we're going to love this movie by this French director. Right.

But there... And there's just other, like, some stereotypes and other things that I was like, this movie had so much... The premise has so much potential to be so interesting and well done. And I just really felt like they missed the mark. And... Yeah. At one point, I burst out laughing. There's a moment where... I do think I know what you're talking about. There's a moment where...

Zoe Zaldana is traveling to find a doctor for the surgeries. And she's in Bangkok and they start singing. And it's like they're singing the procedures. Rhinoplasty, vaginoplasty. And I'm just like, what the fuck is going on? Right. Like there's certain moments where like, okay, yes, a song. And I know they were trying to do more of like an operatic style where it's like the singing...

the dialogue and it's not just like song songs, but it just, the, like the, the, the musical numbers part weirdly felt low budget in a story that could have really worked a different way. But there's like, you know, dance moments and other things that I just, just was not, was not great. I'll give it a D plus. Wow. Yeah.

Wow. Like... You fucking hated it. Yeah. You not only thought it was bad, you hated it. There was honestly never really a time that I...

have watched a movie and have like immediately, I don't even have a Letterboxd, had like immediately went to Letterboxd to like read reviews because I was like, I'm confused. I'm just, I'm confused with what's happening. What does it have on Rotten Tomatoes? The critics score is, but the audience scores in like the 50s, I think, right? How is this winning awards? I do not, something's going on. I do not know.

It has something in the 50s in the audience score. And then on Letterboxd, it has a 2.7 average. So the common folk do not like. Yeah. The most popular review on Letterboxd when it had a star and a half and it has over 10,000 likes.

A musical with zero, in parentheses, zero good songs. If Selena Gomez gets nominated for an Oscar for this performance, I am keying the Academy's cards. Damn. Damn. It was... Did you download Letterboxd? No, I literally just went on the website so that I could read some of the reviews. I was wondering if we should download Letterboxd. Honestly, reading these reviews made me think that I want to get one. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. This one says every generation deserves their own crash. Yeah. It's not all the more recent ones is just like one star. Yeah. It just really I think Amelia Perez is a steaming trash heap. If aliens came to Earth this is the first movie I'd show them to make them leave.

I might, you're like, when something is so bad, that's when I become sold on it. Right, you're like, shit, now I gotta be on Letterboxd. I gotta get on Letterboxd, I also have to watch Amelia Perez. Yeah, I was talking to Kelly Keegs about it, and she was like, oh, I haven't seen it yet. I was like, honestly, Kelly, watch it. Like, I think it deserves to be watched. Yeah. It's like you smoked a little before, and it's just a funny movie. Yeah, then it becomes a comedy. I think it deserves to be watched. And like I said, it is, it's tough, because...

Carla and Zoe really like they gave it their all. I mean, Zoe won. I know. It's crazy. And I just feel like they really like dug into it and it was crazy. Did that just happen again? Yeah, that was the first. No, I swear to God. I swear. I just heard it. And I was like, me and Noah both just looked at each other. I thought I just projected. No way.

Sarah heard it too. Oh my God. I did not even feel it. I was looking down. No, I know. No, I think it was just you moved. I did not. Yeah. So watch it back, I guess. I think it was the chair. The chair made a burp? I think the chair made a noise. Every time I'm getting really impassioned. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, you can watch it because it's a journey. It sounds like it was a journey. And that's everything I watched. I'm glad that you gave such a passionate review on that though. Yeah.

I really don't have much this week. It's kind of a bad showing for me. I watched a Jerry Springer documentary on Netflix. There's like a few episodes, maybe two or three. I never watched a Jerry Springer show. Really? Like ever. I've seen like you're not the father.

yeah jerry was different i thought maury was oh sorry that was maury that was no jerry springer was just like people fucking fighting yeah yeah no yeah we're getting into full-blown fistfights you know i actually did watch jerry springer it was actually interesting to see like how the show evolved and became what it was where it was just like fighting um and there's some like a lot of shady stuff going on behind the scenes but

I wasn't that captivated by it. I'll give it a C+. It is weird that Jerry Springer seems to be this really smart, nice guy who kind of just decided, I'm just going to go with this show because it makes so much money, even though he wasn't really believing in anything he did.

I watched The Abbott, that one single. I've never watched it, so I just went in blind, but I'm like, I want to see how they do this, and it was cool. It was interesting that they didn't, like Dennis wasn't part of the episode.

But that made so much sense for him. For his character. People are saying that when they go on Always Sunny, that that'll play into that or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe he'll have more of a role on that side of things. Because it's such a short... The episodes are so short. No, I know. It's hard to incorporate every character. Was his schedule busy or something, too? He's in it. No, no, I know, but he was in it for a couple... They could have filmed that in five minutes. Yeah, but that's like...

I mean that episode's like 20 something minutes long but it was like Dennis shows up and he's like there's cameras I'm not don't get me like he just doesn't want to be in the like randomly through the episode he'd be in camera and walk off I thought it made sense for Dennis yeah I'll give it a B plus I thought it was really funny yeah

I started watching The Recruit, the Noah Centineo show. It came out a while ago. So it came up on my Netflix as if... I was like, oh, it's a new show. Let me give this a try. I thought it was new, and then I didn't realize that season one was out two years ago, and season two is coming out. It's really just like Agent Cody Banks if he's 10 years older. That's how it feels. And I'm enjoying it. It's ridiculous, but I think he's actually pretty good. Love it. Uh...

Come on, hype Noah up here, Centineo. I'll give it a C+. It can't go into the B range, I'm sorry. That's fair. All right, fair. C+, it's still like in the 70s. It's still like a fun, bad watch. Could be low 80s. And then I watched like a few episodes of Suits because I just needed something that like- Wow, back in.

Sometimes I'm just like, what am I going to watch? There's nothing. Oh, I'll put suits on because I can just go on my phone. The new one starts soon, I think. Yeah. I think it's season six. I'm on like four 13 and like episode 13 through 15. I watched. It's actually kind of brought me back in now. But I'll give it like a, I'll give it a B minus.

It's fine. Solid. It's fun to like revisit those characters after you've been gone for like a long time. You miss them a little bit. Yeah, I'm like, oh, classic Lewis. Right, it makes you appreciate it more. That's all I got. All right. Okay. Love Island UK All-Stars starts tonight. Woo! I'm pumped. Back in it. More Love Island. Yep, very excited for that. All right, that wraps up the Weekly Watch Report.

All right, that wraps up today. God, I can't speak. Sorry. That wraps up today's episode of Chicks in the Office. Fran and Gia will be doing an episode on Wednesday. I will be in Chicago, but we will be back. I will be back on Friday's episode. Thank you guys so much for watching and listening. Love you guys so very much.
