What's up everyone, it's Chicks in the Office with Rianne Fran giving you that Friday energy on a Wednesday. Happy Wednesday everybody. Happy Wednesday. Here we are, Wednesday, middle of the week. I feel like I'm trying to work on my posture these days because I feel like I'm getting tech neck. Ooh. You know? Yeah. Yeah.

I think that's something I probably already have and is irreversible. Yeah. I'm trying to... I'm like, I'm always looking down at my phone, so what...

How do you reverse that? I don't know, but I'm trying. Start to look at your phone like this? Yeah, I'm trying to just put my head up high and put my shoulders back because my neck is killing me over the last couple days. It hurts so bad. Do you think that's the reason? I don't know if it's the way I slept or worked out or something. Yeah, there's no way that that's the reason. No, I know, but it can't possibly help. It can't possibly help when I'm looking down. It hurts when I look down. That's true. But that's definitely not...

I'd be shocked if that's the cause. And the way I sleep sometimes is like crumpled up, you know, like my neck goes in, I'm on my side and I'm all crumpled up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me tell you, there's something really nice when you wake up on your back and you're like,

in the coffin position of sleeping yeah and you feel like for me i feel so much better if i wake up like that but when i wake up all crumpled yeah yeah yeah oh i think i want to get one of those pillows that's for the side sleepers yeah i feel like i need that too i think i need one of those i stayed at when i stayed at one of my friend's apartments recently she had them

And it was delightful. It really, like, I feel like it helps your neck. It does. It does. A lot. Matt actually did get me a pillow a couple months ago for the side. And I just...

I couldn't get used to it. Implemented it? No, I just couldn't get used to it. I don't know why. Also because the shape doesn't match the rest of the pillows. No, it doesn't. And for me, it was throwing me off. I was like, well now... It was an aesthetic thing. Yeah, now I'm like, well now the pillow... Maybe if you hide it behind... Right, I can hide it and brick it out when I go to sleep. Yeah. Or maybe put it behind the other pillows. Yeah, I might have to do that. Not the first pillow. It's probably what I... But then there's three pillows and one's on two on the other.

Right, right, right. You know. Yeah, yeah. You get what I mean? Just the aesthetic of making your bed. I know what you're saying. I can't... That bothered me for a little bit, but Joe uses so many fucking pillows that there's just so many pillows on our bed. Like, Joe has...

Maybe four pillows. Damn. So how many do you use? Two. So four and two. Yeah. So when you make the bed. I make the bed, I do a three and three, but. Nice, nice. Yeah. Evens out. Yeah. But still it's a lot of, that's a lot of pillows. It is a lot of pillows. And like not decorative pillows. Pillows for sleeping. To actually sleep with. Like actual pillows. Yes. Oh my God. It's like the, he can't feel the pee.

No, literally. Or he can feel it with all the mouthpieces. One pillow in between his legs, that's supposed to be good for your spine. And he's got another pillow. I don't know. Most of the time, one pillow ends up on the ground, and yet he insists...

that it needs to be on the bed. Hey, you know what? Comfort is key when you sleep. I got to implement the side pillow a little bit more. I would like to go back. And Bridget had them and she had two of them so it looked nice on the bed because they were side by side. I literally like, when you brought that up, I thought that's a good idea and I thought, oh my God, wait, I have one and I just do not use it. Oh my God, whip it out. I have to tonight or something. My neck is out of control. I was doing stretches this morning. I'm like,

Yeah, I see the TikToks for all them too. People being like, ooh, they look so peaceful sleeping with the side pillow. Yeah. Okay, well maybe I'll whip it out tonight. Sleeping on your side is really not good for you in the first place. No, that's why I've been trying to... I feel like it. No. No, it's... Bad for your neck, bad for your back. But it's not the worst one. The worst one for you is sleeping on your stomach. Yeah. Because that is really bad for your lower back. Yeah. But...

Lately, I've been trying to sleep like this. Yeah, you're literally supposed to sleep like you're dead. And I'm like, you know what? This is sort of peaceful. Yeah. I try and fall asleep like that, and I just, I'll slowly...

feel my feel my feel my neck turn to the left and then your body just goes and then like then my head just goes oh now my head's all the way on the other side now now my body's and now you're peacefully sleeping on your side like a disney princess it's really nice yeah i it's yeah yeah no i gotta work on that but i gotta do some stretching i gotta open up the body advertise like it's like a roller and you lay flat on the ground and you put on your neck and just like your neck kind of like it reverses

Let me tell you, I am yearning for that right now. Like, my God, I love to roll my neck out right now on the floor. That sounds like it'd be pretty nice. It would be. Oh, gosh. Just a massage. I tweak my back a little playing pickleball, I think. Oh, my God, just two hurt girls right now. Yeah, I know. I know. I was like, we were playing pickleball in Florida and we're just outdoors playing.

The wind was blowing and I was trying to hit the ball so hard against the wind and I could feel it in my for my for my twists. But I'm fine. That's we'll just yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm a survivor. I'm OK. Listen, we are rooting for you. Yeah. Seriously. Totally. I'm good. I'm all whacked out of sorts today because I ordered lunch.

I should have just walked and got lunch, but I ordered lunch because I found this new chicken salad sandwich in the city that I think is really delightful. And I ordered it before I left my apartment because I know that the delivery takes a little bit long from this place. Two hours, this lunch is still not here. Crazy. So I haven't eaten yet and I'm hangry. Damn. You know, I'm on the point of like,

Mama needs something to eat. Yeah, right. I don't blame you. Like, now I'm just in a... Like, I'm not going to cancel and I'm not going to order a new lunch. Yeah. I'm going to wait till this lunch gets here. You got to wait for it to show up for sure. But now it's 1.30 and, you know, we're recording so I can't eat now. Yeah. The order is still not even picked up for delivery. But I...

I can't cancel out of principle. Is it a real... And it's like, that's like a real restaurant that you can go and sit down at, right? I'm not sure. I've only ordered the chicken salad sandwich from there. Yeah, I think it is. I looked up best chicken salad sandwich in New York City on Google last week. Yeah. And this place, Daily Provisions came up. Yeah. And I thought, oh, I'm going to try it. Saw it was on Uber Eats. I think it is. Oh, they're on the way. I think it is a real restaurant. It doesn't matter though. I won't be able to eat it now. Yeah. But they're on the way. That is truly a relief. Gosh. Well, anyways.

I'll eat at some point today. Right. I'll get there. Achy neck, hungry. What other complaints do I got? Not really any. I was going to say, I have another one if we want to keep complaining about things. Sure. Why not? I switched to a new Invisalign. Oh. And the edges are... Hurting? Hurting. Ouch. Uncomfortable. I don't know. It's...

New brand I'm in this line? No, no, no. New the next week. The next week. I'm at the end. How are you not done? I feel like you were supposed to be done like a year ago. Yeah, weren't supposed to be done in August? Guys, remember? They gave me 14 new weeks the last time I went. But why though? They said they weren't done. They weren't done cooking. Wow. Because you didn't wear it enough or-

No, I was pretty good about it. I'm not going to lie. They always do that with Invisalign. Yeah, yeah. They always add more on. Yeah, just Invisalign wasn't doing what it needed to do. And it's still not, honestly, talking, it kind of hurts. Like, I feel like I'm going to get a cut on my tongue. Oh, my gosh. Well, you know what? We just need to take a pause from the podcast today. I know. But we're going to get through it. Don't reach into your mouth right now. It's on the inside. I know, but now it actually, now it actually hurts. Oh, God.

Oh, gosh. I know, but this is week 13. Oh, so you have one more week. Yeah. Wow. But I think I'm going to go back and they're going to say they're not done. You need six more weeks after that. This sounds like a scam. Invisalign sort of is sometimes. Well, it's never the amount of time that they say it is. It's wishful thinking. Because they tell you, oh, but how they get away with it is because they say, if you wear it 24 hours,

Out of the 24 hours of the day, like you'll be good. That's just a lot of hours. It's just impossible. It's just too many hours. It's just impossible for somebody who, you know, eats. And by the way, you're only supposed to drink water with it.

Yep. So it's like if you want to have a coffee, you're supposed to take it out. If you want to have anything else to drink, you got to take it out. You're going to have breakfast, lunch, dinner. You got, you know, the whole thing. So it's those hours add up. So the way they get away with it by being like, well, if you wear it for those set amount of hours, you should be good. But who has the time? No, no. To have it in for that. And you just...

It locks you up to be worried about it for that much. Well, soon you'll be free, hopefully, if they're not a bunch of liars. Well, because every time I look at my mouth, too, and I'm like, it's just there, but I almost think...

My teeth have been in the same spot for like the last six weeks, regardless of the Invisalign. So I just think that they're not going to be able to get it past that last little hump. It's quite literally the teeniest amount. Well, can't you just say, listen, I'm done. I don't care about this little thing. The problem is, yes, I could. But I'm worried that, because the plan was that they would then put in a permanent retainer. Mm-hmm.

I'm worried that she's going to be like, well, I can't put in the permanent retainer unless they're all the way done. And then it's like, and then if I just give up,

What was the point of it all? Because then my teeth will just go back. They'll just move back. Right. Right. Because I know what will happen. They'll just push right back. And then my middle, the bottom teeth that I'm trying to fix will just go right back. And then what's the point? I've been doing this for a year. One year wasted of wearing this stupid Invisalign. You keep going until you get to the end. Powering through. Powering through until you get to the end. Yeah.

I can't also get any... No one answers the phone there. Listen, nobody answers the phone at the dentist in general. No one answers the phone there. I've had the same situation before I went to the dentist two weeks ago. It's crazy. I think I have to go walk to the office to make the appointment. Knock on the door. Literally to walk in and be like, I need to speak to somebody to make this appointment. Yeah, that's super annoying. So... Yeah, go knock him down. And I'm not wearing this for six more weeks. Seriously. It's going to end at week 14. Killing me. Killing me. But that's all I have to complain about. I feel like I'm just hoping that I'm not actually getting sick. Because when your whole body hurts...

Sometimes it's like, oh, wait, maybe I'm just getting sick. Because I felt a little bit that way when I woke up. Like, I felt a little bit like, ooh. I bet you you're a little sore. I feel like maybe you're a little sick. You could be a little sore. Maybe a little run down. You know what it also is? Drastic change in weather. And I'll give you this. You know, it's so warm in Florida, it's cold here. Drastic change in weather on top of drastic change in apartment temperature. Because...

I'm too cold when I'm sitting on the couch. So we have to have the heat on. The heat on, yeah. But when we get into bed, I'm too hot to be in bed. So we got to put the air on. So I'm going from hot to cold in a short amount of time. And then I'm waking up like, ooh, maybe that wasn't the best idea. That's what happened today. I thought, you know what?

The heat into the air. That'll do it too, for sure. Probably not the best idea. That'll definitely do it. Just in Florida now, I come to cold weather and my body's trying to regulate with the temperatures. And you know what? I'm hoping I could just shake it off today and tomorrow I wake up a new day. You will. You know? You'll feel like a brand new woman. A brand new woman. Yeah, let's hope. I think so. And maybe after I eat my lunch, I'll feel a little bit better too. That's probably coming in time. Once I eat my lunch, I'll be like, oh!

I feel great. I'll take you back. I think I have to take this Invisalign out. Right now? Yeah, like... Okay, take it out. I'm going to. You have to. You gotta be comfortable while talking. You gotta take it out. It hurts. You gotta flow that mouth, you know, easily. Whatever that means. I don't know why I just said that. I was like, did I...

Flow that mouth. Flow that mouth easily. I don't know what I'm saying right now. I didn't eat lunch yet. I haven't eaten lunch. I'm hungry, so I don't even know what I'm saying. But Fran's currently taking her Viz line out, and then she'll be able to speak freely. And she's putting into a napkin. Don't throw that napkin out by accident. She's crumbling.

That is the worst. Did you ever throw it out by accident yet? I haven't done that. Wow, that's impressive. It's probably when your frontal lobe develops, you don't do that. Right, right. When I had them when I was younger, I threw it out all the time. I imagine that would be very easy to do. The visalign was in the fucking garbage all the time. Oh my, that feels so much better. It was like... You feel free? It was... I felt like I was sawing into my tongue. Yeah.

You know you could do exercises? Unique New York. Unique New York. What's the other ones? Red leather, yellow leather. Red leather, yellow leather. How now brown cow. How now brown cow. Wow. Even I feel looser now. I feel like I was holding on to your tension. Some vocal exercises just to bring us back. I felt like I was holding on to your teeth tension in my teeth. It was my, yeah, my tongue really. Okay. Well, feeling good? Yeah, good. All right. Let's get into the rest of the topics. Oh, I just want to say. Yes. Yes.

way to do things only what's right for you Zola will have your back from day one to the wedding day start planning at Zola.com that's Z-O-L-A.com my last thing I know we just talked all about TV yesterday too and I and I teased that I had seen that it was coming out and I wanted to watch it Pulse

On Netflix. Oh! I was going to ask you what that was. You posted it on your story. Oh, I'm locked in. Should I watch? Yes. What is it? It's Grey's Anatomy. But like early Grey's Anatomy. Oh wait, so we're just in another medical? It's medical. You could tell from the word pulse. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I dreamt about this last night. About pulse. I dreamt about asking you about pulse because I saw it on your story and I wanted to know what it was but I didn't go through the lengths of looking it up. I just thought, I'll ask her tomorrow. I'm not even going to Google. There you go. Well, it is a...

um medical drama now it's very different it's more great Grey's Anatomy than it is like the pit is very realistic day-to-day you know hour by hour in the in the ER pulse is more yes they are all doctors but there's you know personal relationships there's more love involved love story but it's um

you know, a young doctor who gets into a relationship with her old, you know, her boss that's obviously, you know, not drastically older, but it's her boss. And, um,

The drama that ensues as well because, you know, she wants to get promoted, but then he's in charge of her being promoted, but they're a secret. But then she, like, reports him, and then they break up. It's a whole big thing. So HR violations. Yeah, it was a whole big thing. Like, at the beginning, I wasn't sure. I'm like, wait, is this guy a good guy or a bad guy? Do we not like him because she filed a complaint against him? But then it's like, oh, maybe it's something else. Maybe she's working through her own things. She's got her own personal issues. But it seemed like they were in love, and my God, is he handsome. God.

- Oh my gosh. - My God is he handsome. So of course he is, but kind of

Kind of a little early Meredith Grey, McDreamy kind of vibe of like, oh, keeping it a secret. He's, you know, more important at the hospital kind of thing. Gotcha. Okay. I like it. Yes. I like the sound of it. And it's in Miami. Ooh. The hospital's in Miami. Switch up. Yep. Switch up. And the first couple episodes, they're dealing with a big hurricane. Oh. So. That is. Uh-huh. Well, that, you know. Big hurricane. And I watched.

Eight episodes on Monday. Holy shit. How long are they? They're standard. 45, you know. Oh my gosh, almost eight hours. No, I quite literally, I barely turned it off to watch the national championship game. Like Joe came home. I love that. I was still watching Pulse and he was like, you don't have the basketball on? I was like, I'm so, I was like, I'm so locked in right now. I can't.

even care about that. I absolutely love that. That's making me want to watch. Instead, I watched the Gilgo Beach documentary and let me tell you, quite the opposite of handsome. Oh, terrifying monster. God. Terrifying ugly monster. And you could say that about him because he is a gross, ugly, disgusting monster. And wow, yeah. They really fucked up, huh? They really did. I have one more episode left. I fell asleep. That's...

Fine. Within two episodes, I fell asleep. There's only three episodes. I was interested, but I was tired. I was a tired gal, so I went to sleep. But ooh, I'm going to give maybe that a go. Three is good because it's where they get them, you know? Yeah. They got the bastard. It's satisfying to see him get got. Piece of shit. Have you watched the most recent episode of The Pit? Yes. I watched it last night. No spoilers. Don't spoil. No, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not.

Yes, we have a couple left. You still haven't really gotten to the good stuff. I know. Well, I think the whole show has been good. I mean, it's also bad for me to really say the good stuff because what happens is god awful. Right. But there's a couple of shows that we want to watch right now, but I'll watch The Pulse without him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because that's, you know. Yep.

He doesn't need to watch The Pulse. That's a me TV show. For sure. You know what I mean? For sure. So I'll watch that in the meantime. Yeah. To wait it out. But yeah, I got to catch up on that.

Mike White talked a lot about cut scenes from the White Lotus. He talks about the, you know, little breakup with the composer from the White Lotus. He's gone. No love lost. And he hits back at criticism towards the quote unquote boring claims. Blake Lively apparently reached out to Taylor Swift to apologize for being brought into the It Ends With Us drama.

says he's blindsided by the breakup news with Brooks Nader. Don't know how you could be blindsided by that. And Cindy Sweetie is spotted with her ex, Jonathan, getting lunch over the weekend. She looked like she did not want to be seen at all. She did not. She looked miserable in the photographs. But we shall discuss. And we have the Pop Corner, which, you know what, guys? You've been calling in with some great voicemails, so let's keep that up. All right, let's get into the topic.

The finale of White Lotus was Sunday night, so the conversation continues this week. Mike White went on the White Lotus official podcast and he talked about, you know, some of the backlash he's been getting, the situation with the composer, some scenes that were cut out, which...

I think everybody loves hearing the behind the scenes, but then when you hear that scenes were cut out, you're like, well, damn, give us just a whole other season of all the cut scenes we want to see. Right. I think there were some storylines that were cut that probably didn't make much sense, like Piper losing her virginity to Zion, Belinda's son. I don't know where that would fit in. I don't.

That's what I was thinking. I was like, at what point would she have done that? It would have felt so random. It would have felt so random because we didn't see them interact at all. They would have had to have them interacting at some point to then have that scene. He did say he was trying to maybe ended up narratively trying to do too much. Yeah, it felt like that would have been just like a... Like it would have just been random. Yeah. Like everyone would have been, I guess...

you know, happy for Piper to be doing something other than just talking about how she wants to live in Thailand. But at the same time, I feel like it would have been completely random. He also hit back on the criticism that people have called the show boring or the finale was boring, predictable, things of that nature. He knows what he's doing. He said, if you don't want to go to bed with me, get out of my bed. I'm

edging you enjoy the edging if you don't want to be edged get out of my bed don't be a bossy bottom yeah which I love this quote I think it's hilarious it's hysterical and on point yeah he's like hey listen I'm getting you right to that point yeah but I'm not

I'm not going to blow it right in this episode. I'm going to make you wait until the very last second for you to know what happens. You're going to be waiting the entire time. So I feel like, you know, we all picked up on that for this season, especially I think was a little bit more of that edging he's talking about. Yeah. I think some in the first season and the second season, like if you remember in the first season, and I don't know if I remember this correctly, but when they get robbed,

They're still after. You know what I mean? Like they go to the hotel, the hotel's trying to make it up for them like the murder didn't happen. You know,

Whereas sometimes it feels like there was a robbery in this, but it didn't feel as big as the first season one. Because it didn't really end up mattering that much to any other part of the storyline. Yeah, so I just feel like with this season, there was a little bit more of that waiting, waiting, waiting. Oh my God, what's going to happen? But it kept people coming back each week. Just like if big moments happened, people would have came back.

The little moments happening and not getting that big thing still makes people come back because they're like, well, what's it going to be this week? Yeah. Yeah, I think you're very right. And I think Mike White can do whatever the hell he wants, right? And I think he... You kind of forget how he is as a person until you listen to the interviews and whatnot. And it just makes you chuckle because he...

is gonna stick to his guns for sure. And there's certain things that, like, if it annoys you, he really doesn't care. He really doesn't. He's making this show the way he wants to make it. Mike White, I just don't think he cares. I think he just does what he wants to do. And he lets it fly. He says what he thinks. I know we've seen this drama with the composer that due to creative differences, he was not gonna come back for season two.

And Mike White, during a interview on the Howard Stern show, said, I honestly don't know what happened, except now I'm reading his interviews because he decides to do some PR campaign about him leaving the show. I don't think he respected me. He wants people to know that he's edgy and dark. And I'm, I don't know, like I watch reality TV. We never really even fought. He says we feuded. I don't think I ever had a fight with him, except for maybe some emails. It was a good fight.

I love that. Mic drop. I love it. I mean...

- Cristobal. - I mean he's kind of-- - That's the name of the composer. - He's kind of right though. It's like three days before the finale drops, you're gonna be like, "By the way, I'm not returning, we're in a big fight." - Right, that's so fair. - Da da da da da. I mean, now Mike White's just gonna find another composer to make it exact, people would probably die to make the music for the White Lotus. - Yeah. - He's gonna find another composer, he's gonna do it exactly the way Mike White likes.

You know, people love the music in the White Lotus, though. So it is a little bit disappointing because I'm sure they can't just outright copy it because the composer made that. Right. And it's crazy. Who owns the music? And it did seem he wanted to keep the ooh-loo-loos. And Mike didn't.

Yes, the audience would disagree with Mike there. Which is a choice from Mike. But once again, he wanted, apparently what he had told the New York Times, the composer, was that Mike wanted something more that was like background music, a song that's more like something you would listen to in Ibiza in some clubby place with a chill, sexy vibe.

So I actually really Mike cut. There was a new Lala and Lulu version of this one. Yeah, I enjoyed actually this this music. It really grew me week to week. Yeah, he said that he he felt it would have been great to make a longer version with the Lulu's because people would explode if they realized that it was going there anyway. He thought it was a good idea. Some producer thought it was a good idea, but then Mike cut it. He wasn't happy about it.

Mike's like, no Hululus. No Hululus. None. None. None in this season. He just didn't want it to work. So yes, that's it. And he won't be coming back.

White also said the composer didn't want to go through the process with me and quote didn't want to go to sessions during the making of the third season adding he would always look at me with this contemptuous smirk on his face like he thought I was a chimp or something. He's definitely making a big deal out of a creative difference of opinion.

He's very talented, but I've never kissed somebody's ass so hard to just get him to lead the horse to water. Have fun with whatever you're doing next. Damn. Cold, but I love it. Because he's just going to find somebody who wants to do it and do it the way Mike White wants. Totally. Which is also just like, I mean, Mike's not a composer himself, but clearly he feels...

Like he gets the final say and he does. He's the creator of the show. The egos, they come into play. They do. And you know, I can picture an artsy composer is like, well, this is my art. I know what I'm talking about. You don't. And Mike White's like, I don't really give a shit if I know about composing or not.

do it the way I want Mike White's like listen to the theme song for Southern Charm and take notes yeah that's what we want in this show okay so copy that yeah but I can listen to Mike White really talk about anything from the show I can listen to any of the cast members talk about behind the scenes yeah I love every single Amy Lou Wood interview she does I stop and have to watch every single one I can listen to these people talk about it all and I could talk I listen to Jason Isaacs

insinuate there was drama on the set in every single interview he does. Yeah. It never gets old. He may be

He may be the drama. He may be the drama. Am I the problem? I think it is. I think it is am I the problem situation because nobody else has said it except for him. And then it's like, well, are you the problem? He's like, am I the drama? Because it really feels that way. You know, it was actually so funny. When we went to bed Sunday night, we threw on an episode of Entourage. Yeah. And Jason Isaacs was in the episode. Oh. And it freaked us out. We were like, what? Wow, I don't remember him.

him being an episode he um was like a uh taylor interesting yeah it was so right we were like is that jason isaacs it was so he wasn't playing jason no he was playing like a designer taylor i you know i don't know exactly yeah yeah yeah no i know i know describe it but but that's so interesting because that was like peak harry potter time yeah it was uh it was it really it

Really threw us off. Yeah. Because you know when something like that happens? You're watching a show or whatever and you're like, wait a second. Yeah. That was just another... You were just watching him on another show. Yeah. I think it must have been... He must have been playing a designer. Now I want to get it right. So I'm sorry. I'm Googling this right now. No, it's probably... I actually feel like I remember what you're talking about. He wants to dress Vinny for something, right? He's overseeing a marketing campaign for Dolce & Gabbana. Yeah. And hires him as the male model. Yeah.

But isn't he the one that also he likes because of the model. He likes the model. And he's jealous. Frederick is jealous of her attracting to Vince. Yes. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Oh my God. That's him. Yes. Wow. We were like, wow. What? We just randomly put on this episode. Now I totally remember the plot point here. Yeah. Was because of the other, he wanted to work with that other female model. Yeah. He's doing the campaign. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Wow. Yeah. What an interesting role for him at that time. It was, but it was just so random. Yeah. What the hell is Jason Askew doing on a screen again? Right, right, right, right, right. Here he is. But I love him talking about the drama because I'm like, who was he fighting with? Seriously, I think he was. He must have been the drama. And he always says he was closest with the kids the whole time. So I'm like, did he just not get along with any of the adults? Right, right, right. Or maybe they didn't get along. Who knows, but...

I'm interested in all of it and I'm going to miss this cast and miss interviews from them. Same. It's going to die down and we're all going to be waiting on the edge of our seat to find out where the next location is. Right, where they're going for season four. Is it going to be cold? We're going to have to wait for Mike's next ayahuasca trip. Yeah. The next time he's in the hospital somewhere and hallucinates on the season. Yeah.

He said he wants to kind of stray away from the crashing waves on the rocks. Yeah. So who knows? I mean, that could be done really anywhere. There's many places you can do that. Places in Europe that don't have beaches. You could do it in cold climates. You could do some fancy ski resort. Yeah.

I'm not... Safari would be kind of sick. Safari would be sick. Like a really White Lotus five-star safari. Well, I think it has to be a Four Seasons because every hotel has been filmed at a Four Seasons. Or does he just keep picking Four Seasons? I would imagine he almost has a deal with the Four Seasons that he could film at any of the locations. And they keep... I feel like they have all these...

uh events like even the la influencers and whatnot all went to an event at the four seasons because it was white load but they you know it feels like they're now he has a deal with them yeah so i and listen i'm not well there are four seasons everywhere yeah i'm not dying for a snowy season i know some people are yeah but i wouldn't like i'm sure it would be spectacular but i'm not like please please give us a snowy season yeah yeah i i go so i think safari would be pretty crazy yeah that would be crazy yeah

maybe the elephants will start shooting people. Right. Because the monkeys did it. It would be nice to switch it up if it was like snowy. Like just a different like aesthetic. Well, she just said she wouldn't want it to be snowy. No, I know, but I just feel like that would be like, it would change. No, it would be cool. I think it would be cool. I'm not dying for it, but I think it would be cool. Yeah. Because I guess it can get a bit repetitive if you don't switch it up. Yeah. Whole different decor. Mm-hmm.

Clothes, costumes. Yeah. Could really go all out full. Switzerland. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that would be really cool too, Switzerland. Yep. That'd be very cool.

Moving on, this is alleged, page six reported this, Blake Lively reached out to Taylor Swift to apologize for being brought into the It Ends With Us drama. Yeah. Now,

Apparently, they maybe haven't talked much since she was brought into it. I don't know how much I can believe in that. Blake Lively reached out to Taylor Swift to apologize. Taylor said, you know, she felt it was heartfelt and genuine. I don't know where they get this information from, though. Like, I'm like, who is saying this and how did they find this out? Like, I'm just so curious because it is a random headline, a random article to be written, you know, like just out of nowhere. Because I feel like things kind of work well.

we haven't seen too much. Yeah, so they're like, all right, let's throw this story back in there. Yeah. Let's throw it in the mix because it's been a little bit. But, I mean, I could imagine Taylor wasn't happy when her name was thrown out into this whole thing. I mean, that's a nightmare for anybody to be thrown into this. But...

I don't know the, you know, inner workings of what happened between their relationship and if this is true, if they actually, she actually didn't speak to Blake lively after or anything like that. But this is what the article says. Yeah, it's a source exclusively told page six. It was important to Blake to be on good terms again with Taylor. It was never her intention to hurt Taylor or cause any harm to their friendship. Blake missed their friendship and she hopes they can put this whole thing behind them.

The source says that Swift appreciated Lively's apology and, like you said, she felt it was genuine heartfelt. Taylor has no hard feelings and is ready to move forward. And that's really, you know, kind of about it. But that kind of feels like a story out of nothing, to be honest. Like, I think that, if anything, Taylor was maybe a little bit annoyed, but it's somebody that you're so close to that she could have, like, this apology could have been months ago. Or...

Just repeated at this point of, hey, really sorry how this all went down. Yeah. And it's like, yeah, I know. It's annoying, but we're fine. Like, no worries. Right. It's okay. Like, it's going to be okay. She's so close to them. And godmother to the children. Right. One of them, I think. For sure. If somebody that, like, is close to me, I could pretty much get over anything. Like, unless it's really bad. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like...

Or if it's a repetitive, you know, thing. Yeah. But like something like this, I feel like if it was the godmother to my children and one of my best friends ever, I'd probably be a little mad, but I'd be like, it's all right. Look, we'll get over it. You know? Yeah. Like, I'm not going to not talk to you forever over this if we're that close.

she's godmother to all three of them. Yeah, so if that's the case, you gotta work past this. That is actually kind of hilarious. She just said, fuck everybody else, you're the godmother to all of them. Blake Blev was just like, you know what? I'm really setting my kids up where they're all going to Taylor Swift. Yeah, what did she call her? What did she say? One of the dragons. Yeah. Yeah. That's kind of like...

Like, I'm going to be completely honest. No, you rarely give... I rarely hear of a godmother, you know, you get all the kids. Yeah, she has a sister-in-law. Like, Lively does have a sister. No, she has a sister. She has a sister. Her sister is married to Bart Johnson. That's crazy. Oh, no sister. Sorry, I thought it was a sister-in-law. No, no. She has a sister. Her sister is married to Coach Bolton. Right, right. I fucked that up in my head. I think maybe a couple other siblings. Let me just say, like, now that I'm thinking this out loud, like...

That's actually incredibly bizarre that Taylor Swift is the godmother to all three of her children. She has four siblings. Some people don't. Some people, it's, I think it's a regional thing. I also think it's a religious thing. Clout thing. Well, no, some people don't use their siblings for godparents. Like, I have friends that don't have, like, their godparents are not their aunts and uncles. You don't have any other friends to mix in?

You just have one, the biggest superstar on the planet that you're going to make the godmother to all of your children. But if you have the number one superstar. But I'm not making her the godmother to all of my children. My family and friends mean a lot to me. She's asking Taylor. It's not like Taylor's offering. So don't you think Taylor after maybe two is like, really? After the first one, I would be like, wow, again? Are you sure? Maybe Ryan was thinking that if anything were to happen to them.

All three kids go to. Well, they also have four kids now. I mean, listen, those three kids go to. Now that we're talking this out, like I find that to be really bizarre. I don't care how close you are to be the closest person in the world to you. There are other close people to you. And if she's the only close person to you, you got to look inward.

There's nobody else that means anything to you? It's only Taylor Swift means something to you to make the godmother? That's weird. I don't know. All children. And it's also like, what happened to the fourth kid? I never even thought about that. Is the fourth kid...

Is Taylor Swift not the godmother to their fourth child? Finally, Blake said to her sister that's married to Bart. Taylor's like, enough. Yeah, Taylor's like, please. I'll take the three of them, but not the fourth. Taylor doesn't have time to have her own kids. She's got godmothers all of them. She has too many godchildren. That is bizarre. Yeah. Are they best friends? First of all, not. Were they best friends? Yeah. Yes. Like best, best friends. I guess. It seems like it. Yes.

But it's not bizarre on Taylor's part. I mean, what an honor. Taylor's part. You're not going to say no. No, this is such an honor. But weird on Blake Lively's part. Definitely weird on Blake Lively's part. I can't believe I am just putting this all together in my head right now. James and Betty are all her godchildren. She was fishing to have them mentioned in the song, which they were. Well, that's after she's been made godmother. No, that's what I'm saying. I just think if I was in Blake Lively's family or other friends, I'd be like, hmm.

Kind of strange she keeps picking the biggest superstar on the planet to be the godmother of all her children. Not any of us. Ryan doesn't have any women friends. Right, what about Ryan's family?

I don't know. He's like, well, I really like my cousin. Who's the godfather? And she's like, shut up, Ryan. It's Taylor. We don't know who godfather is. And do they have a different, that would be the real question. We don't know who the godfathers are. The real test would be if there's a different godfather for each one. Yeah. Some people also double up. But the same godfather. Like some people also double up. Maybe like Blake's sister, their godmother there and also Taylor.

I've never heard anybody doubling up on godparents. Yeah, I've seen that too. Really? Because when they're not like, like, you're not, you know? Yeah. I guess you could kind of do whatever you want. You just like throw the label on people. Yeah.

Because if it's not really in the church, I have friends that are like, oh, yeah, I called them whatever. My godmother. Those are my godmothers. It's kind of more of a free-for-all. I don't know. I don't know about them, though. But I didn't realize it was all three. I did kind of think it was just one, but it is...

Three. And I keep saying all three, but she does have four. Sorry, I'm being... The fourth one's gonna feel so left out. I feel like I'm being super judgy about this, but I actually... It could be four. Like Taylor Clemson says, hide only the three. They all get Christmas presents beside the fourth. Yeah. Oh, here, go talk to your normal godmother. I mean, wow. What has...

When was the fourth child born? Beginning of 2024? Ooh, in the middle of the drama. I don't know. No, no, no. 2023, 2023. Huh. Like, fourth. Maybe it's just, maybe because their fourth kid is a boy that they went Taylor Swift for all the girls. I mean, that would make sense. Yeah, I guess. Yeah. It's Ryan Reynolds. I mean, it's a... Yeah, I don't know. All the girls get Taylor Swift? Yeah.

Objectively. But there's other women that mean something. No, of course. But maybe they're like... You get to...

I don't know, it was pretty sick for all the girls to get to say it. You know? Like, then you're not leaving any of the girls out. It's like, oh, just Betty gets Taylor Swift and I get Aunt What's-Her-Face? Yeah, but that's so mean to say about Aunt What's-Her-Face. It'd just be important. It just wouldn't be any aunts or uncles. It would be all friends. You know? Oh, yeah. I remember seeing this after they welcomed the son in 2023. Ryan Reynolds said, Taylor Swift is the godparent to my daughters. Yeah. So maybe that is why, like...

Yeah. But it's so weird. It's just like, hey, all the girls get Taylor Swift. You'll never not convince me that's not weird. I agree. I'm fully in agreement with you, Noah. I think it's a little bit bizarre. I think it'd even be weird if it was just like your aunt and she's like, you have other people in your life. Why are you making one person? All of them. All of them. Yeah, all of them. I don't know. Yeah, it's like spread the love. Yeah.

Weird. Anyways, moving on, I guess. I can't believe we went down that path. And now I'm like thinking about this a little bit more. Gleb says he's blindsided by the breakup news of Brooks Nader. So he saw this news online. He said that he reached out. Claims he saw it online. He saw it online. He reached out to Brooks on April 6th was the last time they talked.

He texted her wanting to talk on the phone. She didn't answer him. The last time he saw her was April 1st and March 31st because he went to go support the filming of her reality show, he said. So he saw her just about a week ago.

maybe cheated on her in between that time period or maybe she finds out about it or just found out about something and now is not answering him and now he's blindsided by the news that they broke up I mean sometimes I just can't understand what the hell that could even mean yeah I uh I've seen enough of this guy to be honest and after did you see his tiktok in response no I didn't oh I just saw the articles about it Jesus let me show you

It's just you'll be like, of course, he did the the Kardashian sound about the, you know, next this season.

Or is that... It's not Kardashian. I don't know what the sound is from this one. Oh, my God. No, it's barf. Give it a barf. Give it a rest. Oh, the wink. Like, the wink. You know what? The whole thing. I've been holding it in, but... He plays it up. He plays it up hard. Listen, Brooks can do way better than a washed-up dancer like Gleb. Yeah. Sorry. I have these ricochet shots, but it's just true. It's like...

Look he's a handsome guy I'll give it to him It's not that he's not handsome But from his past relationships And what his ex-wife has said No for sure Whatever And you know Sky's the limit really For who Brooks could date That's what I'm saying Like Brooks can really And I'm sure she really liked Glove So it's

So it's kind of messed up to say she could do better if she really liked him. But I'm just saying you could do better than somebody who's going to treat you like that. You can do better than a piece of shit who's going to cheat on one of the most gorgeous women on the earth who's also hilarious and all the things. So it's like...

you know, just move on and do better than him because he was clearly, he clearly was getting used to the attention and liked what the Naders brought to him. And now he's, he's reaping what he sow, might they say, is that it? So now he can continue on with that life. And now with their, you know, if they start this reality show, whatever they do, they can move on and he's out of the picture and he won't benefit from it.

I agree. I think he was mooching. He was. He was mooching for sure. He loves the clout of the TikTok people loving them. Mooching for sure, exactly. Oh, and people being like, oh, my favorite show's on, and it's them too. Yep, yep, yep. And, you know, one time I saw a paparazzi video of them, and he looked right in the paparazzo's eyes. And as soon as he looked right in the paparazzo's eyes, he, you know, he clenched her hand a little stronger, brought her in. And Brooks is not looking at the paparazzo at all. She's just up in the air looking around,

You could tell Gleb looked and he was like, ooh, let me get lovey-dovey for the camera. He was throwing it on. And I do believe Brooks actually did like him. So if this is how he's going to act and be shitty, then she could do better than him. Absolutely. So yeah. And I don't know how much I believe of what he says of finding this out online or whatever. I'm sure...

You may have had an inkling that something had happened. Yes. If maybe perhaps she wasn't answering her phone. You could put two and two together. Right. That she found something out. Right. Oh, she didn't want to talk to you? Yeah. Guess why. Yeah. Idiot. Yep. Anyways. Idiot pants. Yeah. Stupid face. Head back on ice. Let's see your Paso Doble now. Yeah.

He's gonna be slipping all over the dance floor on tour now. It's gonna be all messed up. Sydney Sweeney was spotted with her ex, Jonathan, getting lunch off the weekend. And let me tell you, she did not want to be spotted. Sweatshirt, hood up, sunglasses on. She's like, I don't want to be spotted with my ex. I can't have people thinking I'm back together with this guy.

But who knows? Maybe they're just grabbing a lunch to, you know, talk about maybe they want to. She wants to get lunch in a public place. She doesn't want to meet him in a private place. They're broken up. She wants it to be public. The whole thing. Who knows? They probably have some financials to work through. Right. They've been together for a long time. Yeah. They've been together a long time. Home things. Right. But she's like. Animal things. Right. We're going to do this in a public place. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Private setting. Yeah. But also at the same time, I really don't want to be like if I'm photographs. She's she's got a full. Yeah.

Damien and Mean Girls outfit going with this with the pulled sweatshirt and the sunglasses. She's like, if I'm going to be photographed with you, I want to look miserable. I want people to not get a little inkling that we're back together. I want them to think I don't want to be at this lunch with you at all and I have to. It's strictly business. And it's so clearly him. He's easy to spot, I feel. Yeah.

And she was definitely, yeah. They were headed, they were at the Beverly Glen Deli where they casually sat together for about an hour and then left together. Both wore sunglasses while walking Sweeney's dog Tank. And that was it. Following reports that the two had been living separately, a source told People on Monday, March 31st that Sweeney had been focusing on work amid the end of her engagement.

So yeah, maybe just some loose ends to tie up. Let's go get lunch. Lunch is as casual as it gets. For sure. They're grabbing a deli sandwich, maybe chicken salad. Exactly. And they're talking about their splits. Yeah, yeah. And that's it. How bad is it that they were having lunch? I know. I'm starving right now and my lunch is out there now. It's been out there. That's okay.

Enjoy your order. I will two and a half hours later. She, yeah, this is a, it sucks because really right now it's, she's going to be photographed wherever she goes at this point. I feel like there, there, there's some people that I don't think the paparazzi are following around all the time.

I do think they are following her around all the time. For sure. They're trying to get the money shot. Yeah, for sure. It's everything with her love life is very hot in the streets right now. It would be the perfect sale. Exactly. And especially catching her with her ex. Oh, golden. When somebody got that, they thought, oh, I'm eating good dinner tonight. Exactly. Steak dinner tonight, honey. Exactly. All right. That wraps up today's topics. Thanks.

Welcome back to the Pop Corner where we're going to be taking your voicemails, your hot takes, whatever you want to talk about. If you want to call in and leave us a voicemail, the number is 914-297-7089. We'll be taking these every Wednesday on the Pop Corner. So let's get into the first voicemail. Hey.

Hey Rhea, Fran, and Noah. I have a hot take about weddings. This isn't anything pop culture related, but since you both are in your bridal era, one of my icks at weddings is when the maid of honor or best man starts their speech with, for those of you who don't know me, if you made it a drinking game, you'd be plastered. So with that said, I was just wondering if you two, and Noah included, have any wedding icks of your own. Thanks guys. Love you. Hmm.

That's a good question. I mean, weddings are so personal. So it's like something you may not like, somebody else may love. And especially being so close to my wedding right now, I'm weary of judging other people because it's like you may like something somebody else doesn't like and it's your day. So it's really up to you. I will say that does make me cringe. But sometimes...

Right. You have to say, but also you would hope everyone would know who you are if you are the maid of honor best man. My sister and Matt's brother...

matron of honor best man are not making speeches at our wedding we're doing them at the rehearsal dinner the night before um to kind of cut out the uh i don't know my sister is terrified of public speaking quite the opposite of me like absolutely absolutely terrified so that kind of make it an easier decision at her wedding right well her she had a backyard wedding because um of covid and

I made the speech. She had, she ended up having her bridal shower after she got married and I made the speech there. Um,

But it made the decision easier because she is so terrified of public speaking to not do the speeches at the wedding because, you know, it's really got to be a sweet spot. You know, it really depends. Some can be super cringy and you're like, why the hell are they saying this right now? And others are really sweet and heartfelt and funny. So, God, it could really go either way. Yeah, I love it. I love a speech. It's kind of one of my favorite parts of a wedding.

which I know is maybe not the most popular opinion. Sometimes people are like, ah, wrap it up, you know, but I love listening to the speeches and hearing what people have to say about the, about the couples on my favorite things. Um, necessarily have a lot of X, but I, I will say if the couple, and I feel like this is more maybe celebrity based or, you know, performer based, but I've seen it done before as well.

Any kind of special performance. Like a choreographer team. For the bride or groom. Like the bride comes, like the groom sits in a chair and the bride does a little performance, a little dance or a song or something or vice versa. I'm just kind of like, this feels. What about like a choreographer? This feels like maybe not for a crowd. Yeah, like for a personal moment. Yeah. Does that include like a choreographed dance between the two?

I just saw one the other day. No, no, like between the bride and groom, no, like I'm talking about like just one of them. Yeah. Like the bride is sitting down and the groom is dancing. Yeah, like she was a cheerleader and then she brings out the whole team and they do it. But if you're super talented, it could be really entertaining. Right, and luckily if I think about Meghan Trainor's wedding, I think about what Daryl did, the whole performance, I'm like that was...

entertainment really it's quite entertainment but when you're gonna do it it has to be like yeah it has to be over the you have to go 150% even if you're going like 90% it still could be like yeah it's gotta be you gotta be talented and over the top and if you're not talented it's gotta be yeah funny in some capacity there's a lot of pressure yeah for some sort of choreographed routine yeah I haven't

seen anything lately that I've been like ooh I hate when people do that you know I don't I really haven't either I think it's really up to the couple I also can't think of anything like I usually just have a good time when I go to work right that's another thing I'm not like wow what the fuck right yeah it's hard to think of anything that I'm like

Yeah, there's sometimes bad speeches, but that's just inevitable. Yeah, right. Sometimes with a speech when someone tells a long story that no one cares, like a story from childhood that only you two would find as funny, whatever. I feel like you can keep those in. Only my dad is doing a speech, which is really funny because he brings it up every day and I can tell he's really nervous, but keeps telling me it's going to be okay. And I'm like, I'm not worried. I think you're telling me it's going to be okay because you're the one who's worried. Sometimes they have to, you know, you got to talk yourself into it.

I think maybe also from going to so many weddings in a Catholic church and also just having any kind of like religious ceremony in the same realm of, you know, for those of you who don't know me, it's just like you get you get the ick because you've just heard it so many times. I sometimes feel the same with and I'm sure so many people out here and listening have have used it or done it because it's by far the most popular thing.

And I love it every time I hear it, but also I'm like, it's done every single time. Is it Corinthians? Love is patient. Love is kind. It's just that reading, I think, is maybe, it's got to be the most popular one done at every ceremony as far as like.

It's the same world of, for those of you who don't know me, it's like you get annoyed by it because you've heard it 50 times. Right. I would say the officiant would actually be the guy who I'd be most annoyed by if he's not in the family or whoever he is. If he's trying to make the show about him. That's a good one. Sometimes they're good.

But if they're not, it's just like, all right, man, just move it on. Move it along. In the realm of that, I've been to some where it's been very clear that the either priest or officiant doesn't know the couple at all. Like that's where I've been like, ooh. Like they've maybe made comments. I'm like, what? I'm like, okay, you spent 20 minutes with these people and you're trying to make it sound like you know them and you don't. One more ick that I actually just thought of mine.

The bridal party entrances into the... Which, if it's just being announced, love it. Yeah, I want to know. Let's throw our hands in the air and clap for the bridal party. The like, oh, I'm going to fake throw you a football and like do the, oh my God, like do the whole thing. Like that, you know,

Some of them are creative and cute and some of them it's like we've seen it before. Yes. I get what you're saying. It's not that the whole idea of it is an ick. It's just the same thing are done all the time. Right. Because you should welcome everybody into the party. Everybody should clap for the bride and groom and the parents and all that. But it's like the go long, go long. I'm going to fake pass you a football and it's going to be my bouquet and the whole thing. It's like...

Sometimes I just wish the bride and groom would tell their friends, don't worry about doing the entrances. Just get out there and say hi. Just throw your hands at the air. You can just walk out and that's it. That's something that I feel has...

transitioned out a little bit too. It has for sure. I have not been to a lot of weddings where they've done that recently. It's been a couple years although I did go to one where oh my god they did it so well. Every pairing had like a full routine and it was top notch.

When it's done like that, it's spectacular. I went to one last summer. But it's awkward when everyone doesn't know what to do and they half-ass it. I went to one last summer where they were coming downstairs and they did a little lift. Boom, fell flat on the face. And that is not an entrance you want to be a part of. Also, the amount of entrances. Matt has been in like 14 weddings at this point. Every single time he's about to do one of these, I can't help but make fun of him. I'm like, ooh, what are you going to do?

A fake dribble. Does he have a go-to? No, I mean, he leaves it up to whoever the bride is. He says he always leaves it up to whatever bridesmaid he's walking out with. And he'll be like, she wants to do the toss. And I'm like, you gotta do it. And I'm standing there just waiting to make fun of him. I'm like, you got it! But I just can't wait to make fun of him when he gets back to his seat like, you did the toss again. Great job. So funny. That's one of them where it's like, entrances are fine, but

You know, some of them are overdone. Hi, Rhea, Fran, and Noah. This is Courtney from Boston. I'm calling because I have a, I guess, a friend of a friend, I'll say, a tangential friend who ended a friendship over baby names. So I want your opinion on this. She, I guess, her best friend growing up, she told her for years, you know, what she wanted to name her future baby that didn't exist yet. Yeah.

And come to find out the friend stole the baby name and used it for her daughter when she had a kid before the other friend did. So I know this happens often. And I know like even like amongst siblings, if there's a family name, you know, you know, this could happen. Is this something that you would qualify as a friendship ender for these these two girls? They're no longer friends because of this.

in my mind, I'm like, this can't be something that you're ending a friendship over. Like, just name your kids the same thing. What do you care? I don't know. What's your opinion on this? I'm curious to hear. Thanks. I'm a big fan. I don't know if I'm ending the friendship, but I'm pissed off. For sure. I'm pissed off. I agree. I don't think it's a

friendship ender I think it's something you can come back from yeah but I think it's fucking bizarre yeah if you tell somebody forever that you love a name you want to name your kid this da da da da and they fucking steal it for you there's a million names in the world there's a million names in the world pick another name if you were the first one to say that name

There are things that you can get the same of and copy. You can even name your kids the same thing. If your friend names their child whatever. It's like your best friend. But if it's your best friend. But if say your friend names their child whatever. It's not your best friend but it's a friend. Yeah. And you say you know I really love that name. It's like oh name your whatever. Totally. You guys are in a group. Well sure go for it. But if it's your best friend in the world and you've been talking about this name.

That is weird behavior. Yeah. That's a little, I would never think about doing that. Never. Like you have said you want to name your child Francesca, your daughter. Imagine I name my daughter Francesca. It would be, I mean, it would be an honor. That would be a beautiful ode to me. It would be an honor. See, now we're, any other name you can say, Francesca's because that's your name. But you would be like, hmm.

If I had a name that I had been telling you for years that's on my top of my list and you had a kid before me and you were like, this is her name, I'd be like, what the fuck? Change it. I'd be like, let me see the birth certificate. Cross it out. I want to know when she found out. I would just be like, that's bizarre. Did she tell her, I'm sure she didn't find out when it was born. I'm sure she told her ahead of time.

Does that change anything? I don't know. I don't know if you do. Like if they came to you being like, hey, I know that this was your name. Well, that's almost even worse because then she's like, because if the friend is like, oh, okay. Like she did it anyway. It's not like even if the friend was like, I really. I don't think it's a friendship ender, but it's definitely really weird behavior. Yeah, yeah. It's like of all things, you know that your best friend has had this name locked in for forever and like,

You just take it? Yeah, that's just weird. I'm not going to lie. Did you guys see the clips of Caitlyn Bursow talking about- Yes, I was just going to bring that up. I know. So Caitlyn on her podcast said that she, that Jason had always known that Teddy was on the top of her list for a baby name and that she always wanted to name her son Teddy. Teddy. Teddy, yeah. But I was trying to think if it was- She just loved the name Teddy. Yeah. And-

Jason gets a new dog and names the dog Teddy. And...

People are picking her apart. They're saying this is so dramatic. No. This is like, oh, she needs to calm down. This is not a big deal. It's just a dog. Sorry. No, I'd be pissed too. No, I'd be pissed too. Listen, there are some things that can- Makes it worse than it's a dog. Right. I think it's bizarre. You can name your dog whatever you want. There's a million and trillion other names. Name it fucking Fluffy. Right. Whatever. And what's even weirder is he put out- But you know why? He's doing to piss her off. No, but he put out a- That's weird. That's weird. That's weird. That's weird.

behavior to do it to petty weird behavior it's weird that's weird I'm sorry and he put out like a he put out a public poll when he got the dog because he didn't have a name for the dog yet he put out a public poll of like hey what should I name my dog everyone like vote like what should I name my dog and he still went with Teddy and I'm sure people sent Teddy a lot but it's like oh maybe go with

Pick number two? Like, I think that was his excuse to be like, well, the public said Teddy. The people said Teddy. So I'm going to go Teddy. The people wanted Teddy. And then like really bad names. No, right. So it had to be Teddy. No, the people wanted Teddy. No, I think that's ridiculous. And there are other things that Caitlin said that, you know, I think it's fine to disagree with. The podcast thing, the gym thing with Sean, whatever. But the name, the Teddy name thing. No, the name thing pissed me off.

Would be really bizarre to see from an ex. I got, this is like, and I'm, you know, the caller is probably gonna be like, wow, I, you know, they really disagree with me. I, baby names are, are funky like that because you just have an idea. Like I've had an idea and I'm not even gonna, I'm not gonna say it, but I had like a, like a not even close to me at all person just have a baby and, and use the name.

that I like yes and I was like oh I can't use it now and Joe was like what are you talking about like of course you can use it now he's like no she's not saying I'm copying her what's the name I can't I'm not saying because it's still in the running you can cut it out oh no but I'll tell you after okay um now I want to know but you could still use it yeah no I know I know but now I thought it was so fun and now it just feels less unique you know

Because it felt like less popular. But now I'm like, oh, is it going to... You know? Anyway. Damn. Baby names are weird. They are. People get sensitive about them. They do. They do. And I'm sorry. If...

If it was like you or Claire or somebody that I've known for like a really long time that I've that is like I've and they just were like, you know what? I'm naming my kid. You've been talking about naming your kid for I'd be like, that would be that would be crazy. That would really be insane. It would be. And if you and it also I think it's kind of weird if the friends response is, hey, well, you can use the name too. It's like, fuck.

you I guess no no no I think that's weird would you though like if you're no you wouldn't know no you don't want to have this but if you if you're like fuck you we're not friends then why not name it I know I would because I don't want the story behind my kid's name to be something petty yeah yeah yeah I would just be like all right we're time to move on to option number two yeah it is what it is and it's like you're mad you're probably mad for a little bit but then you get over and you name your kid something else and you move on but you just like if I have little Maddie and

And Rhea has Little Maddie Sorry I went with Matt's literal name But it's like We'd be like oh that's Little Maddie Cahill and Little Maddie Riley We have to throw their last names into it You know You're gonna name the kids the same thing We do too much together already Imagine we named our children the same thing Yeah that would be out of control That would be crazy

Damn. That's why I can't do that. No, they can't. Hi, Rhea, Fran, and Noah. This is Kara from Newport Beach, California. Love your show. Love you guys. Highlight of my week. Thanks. My question for you is about Teresa Giudice and everything that's going on with her and Louie and his bankruptcy. Like, do we really think Teresa had no clue what was going on? Like, what are your guys' thoughts on their relationship, this dynamic, and now, like, her...

financial troubles all over again. I feel like there's no way she could have been ignorant again to all of this drama, but maybe she really was. So I just would love to hear your guys' opinions on this. Thanks so much. Love you guys so much. Bye. I think she was. I think she was. I think she lives in La La Land. I really do. Like, if you just hear...

Even not on the show. Interviews, blah, blah, whatever. She seems very sweet, but she is... I think she just is living in La La Land. I think she falls in love and she believes...

whatever these guys are telling her. It seems like she doesn't communicate with her partners whatsoever in any capacity. She just goes, he loves me, I love him. Right, and I think she just goes with whatever they... If Louis is like, babe, everything's fine and you can talk to my guy and Louis' guy is going to say the same thing, everything's fine. I just don't know how I could believe it twice that she really has no idea. Maybe she plays the stupid act with some things and she has some idea with the money. Or is she that aloof?

Is she that, you know, has no idea what's going on? To be honest, yeah, it's even less her and more that I think that these guys are so...

behind the scenes that he's keeping shit a secret from everybody. Yeah. Where it's maybe she's not thinking that she needs to be digging into. She's clearly not asking questions. Yeah. You know. Yeah. She's not asking the right questions. Right. Because she keeps finding herself in these situations. Yeah. It's just like if when he goes to work who knows what he's doing kind of thing. Like what what other weird shady business shit is he doing. And she might not even care. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. At this point. She isn't. At this point I really feel like they're like la la la everything's fine we'll figure it out.

all right let's do one last one hi rio fernando my name is ashton and i'm from illinois looking forward to jonas con this weekend uh sky stage is going to be awesome with it my calls about this video i keep seeing on tick tock basically it's asking what five drinks you would choose to be an endless spout on each of your fingers my five would probably be between diet dr pepper

strawberry acai or however you say it, water to, you know, zest, wine and apple juice maybe. If I could figure out a way for espresso to be coffee in the morning and a martini at night, that could make the list. What are your guys' five drinks? Looking forward to hearing from you guys. Thanks. Bye. Is it bad that my mind immediately went to alcohol when she said that?

Like, like my mind immediately was like, Ooh, like, um, a glass of red, a dirty martini. Like I didn't even think like she, she said water and I went, Oh shit. Water. Huh? Is that's that's, this is not an alcohol only question. Mine went straight to Coca-Cola, which I'm not proud of either. Honestly. Uh, I would say water, Arnold Palmer, like an, an iced tea lemonade. Yeah. Coca-Cola. I'm going to throw alcohol in there. I'll go, I'll go red wine. Yeah. And then the last one is tough.

I'll put espresso in there because I've been liking just a quick single shot of espresso in the morning. Yeah, that's lovely. Wow, that's so Italian of you. It is pretty Italian, but I just do it. But I feel like, but then you only use that finger like...

For a quick shot? For a quick shot, like once a day. Right, but I mean... Yeah, but you got to get the caffeine somewhere. I'm not going to be drinking the Coca-Cola every day. Yeah, yeah. That's my promise, I would. I would get really unhealthy. So I would do water, Arnold Palmer, Coca-Cola, red wine, and espresso. I think I'm going to get a little fancy. I'm going to go with like a sparkling water with lemon. Nice. That's going to be my water, but jazz it up a little bit so it's not just water. Mm-hmm.

Diet Coke. Yeah. Give me the hard stuff. Yeah. I think I would just go unsweetened black iced tea. Mm-hmm. Dirty martini. Mm-hmm. Already mixed. Yeah, it's got it. Yeah. I mean, it's a spout, so, right? It'll be nice. Blue cheese olives come out of the thing. Yeah, yeah. Dirty martini. That's the other hand. Right. Yeah. Right. Imagine that in the last two. I'm like, vodka, olive juice. And...

That's a good, that's a, last one is tough. Because I'm torn between like champagne or like a rosé or a beer, honestly. Sometimes it's just a good old-fashioned beer. Like in the summer if you had Corona just in your hand. Yeah. No, I'm going to go rosé.

Nice. Cold. It has to be cold. Oh, well, I'm hoping you can get the temperatures on them as well. Yeah, right. The espresso has to be hot and I want the rest to be cold because I want a chilled red wine. I don't want it to be room temperature. Yeah. Yep. A chilled red, please. Yep, that's mine. How about you, Noah? I would make one of them probably red Gatorade.

That's solid. I think one of them, water. That would be so nice to just wake up in the middle of the night, just suck your thumb. Oh my God, yeah. That's why the thumb would be water. I agree. I think one would be old-fashioned. So that's three. Dirty martini, honestly, I would. When you're feeling fancy, you got to be able to pull out something, you know? And then...

I would do, just because I had it the other day at the movie theater, I would do like a root beer. Nice. Nice root beer. I love a good root beer, but I just don't think I drink it enough that it would go on the hand. Go on the finger, yeah. Yeah, damn. But why don't you? Now I'm looking at my finger. There's certain sodas where you're like, why don't I always have it? Why don't I have Dr. Pepper more? My guilty pleasure soda is an orange soda. I fucking love orange soda. Every time I have Chinese food, I have an orange soda with it. I love a grape.

Great. Root beer is a lot of sugar. But if you have, here's the thing. It's like, everyone's like Diet Coke, Diet Coke. That's the most popular drink. Why not Diet Dr. Pepper? I love Diet Dr. Pepper. Fair. I don't like, I mean, I prefer a Diet Coke over Diet Dr. Pepper. I love Diet Dr. Pepper. I prefer Coke over Dr. Pepper. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my. Now I'm looking at my fingers differently and I'm like, give it to me. Give it to me. Yeah. All right.
