Sweet Potato Maxxin': Thursday, November 5th, 2026

0:00Good morning, girlies, it's the toast. It's Jackson, Claude, and we're your hosts. It's your favorite show, the fast five things you need to know. We'll start your day off swirly, it's the toast. They sound amazing. Welcome back to the toast and happy wednesday nope thursday what a little treat happy thursday latter half energy hope everybody's having an amazing day hope everyone's having an amazing day hey jack how you doing i'm doing good thank you oh maybe i should be a little more specific i'm actually i'm feeling a little bit disoriented actually like just i don't know. I love the specificity. Sometimes like I just am in a fog. Clearly me too. I thought it was Wednesday. This is my second coffee,

0:50which I haven't done since before my max pregnancy. So I think that tells you how I'm doing. How are you doing? I would think you'd be doing a lot better. Because I'm with my sister who I love? Of course. But also, because I'm with my sister who I love. Because we sweet potato maxed last night. We did sweet potato max last night. I was so excited to talk about this. So we actually had a great night last night. My friend Rebecca, you guys might know her from the book club. Of Redheads fame. We call her Becky on the show. She came, she's in Florida. So she came to visit us yesterday she hung around we had dinner together and we decided to sweet potato max so which if you're not familiar with like what's going on in

1:33the trends in the food space the uh protein maxers are now sweet potato maxing where they're eating ground beef and sweet potato and like making different bowls yeah like in different variations but always sticking with the main components of like your carb being your sweet potato and your protein being your ground beef it's very like you know manosphere pot and we're here podcasting after sweet potato maxing like we're literally andrew tate's brother we're living in the manosphere so i like to make burger bowls for dinner like hamburger bowls but ben and i have been casually discussing sweet potato maxing you have been sending him sweet potato max curious yes And I've been sending him videos and we just both want a Sweet Potato Max.

2:08Plus the babies love Sweet Potato. So it's like everybody could be Sweet Potato Max in. Yeah. Kind of everyone but me because I had to have a separate meal made that actually looked like it was for Romeo. It was very sad. Jackie got a rotisserie chicken from the kosher grocer, which I love a rotisserie chicken. And we had some leftover white rice. Like my plate was bright white it was like blinding me in the eye and everybody else had like color and sweet potato brown beef lettuce and tomatoes and onions my plate I swear if I had picked the bowl up and put it on the floor for Bruno nobody would have been surprised yeah it did look like something very bland but that's what you wanted so anyways we had our hamburger

2:42bowls with a side of sweet potato max in. But you don't feel better? Well, I definitely wasn't hungry last night. I don't think I had an after dinner snack now that I think about it. I did. What'd you have? I found your husband's candy stash after claiming that the Trigger Treaters ate it all. I had two of those little Hershey's nuggets. I found his stash after he just lied straight to my face and said that like Trigger Treaters. To send you a picture and say like Biggie kept some. Biggie lied. So what happened was- Yeah, he did. And he kept full size bars. It's not like he kept like, you know, the bad stuff. The Laffy Taffy. No, he got this Costco industrial size mixed box, box, not bag, of Kit Kat, Reese's Cup,

3:23like two huge cup. There might've been a Snickers in there. And Hershey and Hershey Hershey with almond which is not my favorite so we put out a huge bowl of candy on Halloween so trick-or-treaters could come and take what they wanted because we were out trick-or-treating and when we came back to the house like it was totally empty and everyone's like oh my gosh oh no I'm like no Zach like keeps reserves for himself and he's gonna have to put out his personal collection so he like hunched his himself and he's going to have to put out his personal collection. So he like hunched his shoulders and like walked back into the house. He was like, really? I have to put out the full bars? I was like, yes, you have to put out the full bars.

3:50So he went and bought the full bars and he was like just acting like so devastated. Honestly, I'm impressed by his acting skills. He had another, he only put one out of two out and he also had another bag of like little Hershey. Those are new edition. I think he bought those yesterday. So then when I went in the next day and I saw in the laundry room, there were still a box of full-size bars. Like Biggie kept some for himself. Notorious B-I-G. Don't worry. Ben and I took care of it. We like, we went hard. And every time I saw that box this week, I meant to send you a picture. I mean, like, don't worry about Zach. He kept some for himself. And I had a Kit Kat. I don't have Kit Kats enough. Kit Kats are amazing.

4:23Kit Kats are amazing. Kit Kats are amazing. But my number one. Is Twix. You're wrong for that. I love Twix. My number one like might be Kit Kat. That's fair. That's a good one. But it also like has historically always been Milky Way. That's disgusting. It's crazy that when I say that. I hate Milky Way. Everyone is like really? Milky Way? You could like offer me. It's like the most classic. You could offer me a milky way like in the middle of the day like or even after it's like a sweet treat after lunch oh my god that's insane because and you know they make milky way like extra caramel oh no milky way midnight's disgusting they make milky way like extra caramel it's like so fucking good every time it's like one of my shockingly most unpopular opinions. Yeah. But

5:05as I've grown, I have realized that Kit Kats, they might be taking over. Kit Kats are so good. Yeah. They're a beautiful thing. And they come in multiple different sizes and formats and they taste different and like better every time. Yeah. Because the chocolate to wafer ratio keeps changing. Yeah. But I do love like the classic big four sticks. Yeah. Those are delicious. Love Kit Kat. And then of course I also love Al joy and your almond joy is my Milky Way even though I think Milky Way is like so much more palatable and universally liked than almond joy I agree I would agree with you on that like almond joy is like sort of a hot take except it turns out everybody actually loves it everybody loves it and I think Milky Way it's like you think it's obvious you think it's like a

5:42Snickers but it's not okay but like so everyone agrees that like Snickers are better than Milky Way. I totally disagree. Yes. Snickers. Like, and if you said your favorite was Snickers, I'd be like, oh, classic. It's not my favorite, but that's normal. Although I do want to say, you're not you when you're hungry. Like that whole campaign. Snickers are extremely filling. Like the peanuts. Like sometimes you eat candy. Yeah, protein. Yeah, sometimes you eat candy and you're not full and you feel disgusting. Your Snickers maxed in. With Snickers, of course you feel disgusting afterwards when you eat like the peanuts like sometimes you eat candy sometimes you eat candy and you're not full and you feel disgusting like snickers max with snickers of course you feel disgusting afterwards when you

6:09eat like the whole one but you do feel full like for for a few hours and you know they say a kind bar is just as unhealthy as i believe it me too i do believe it and then like lots of the marketing when it comes to candy break me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar. Give me a break, give me a break, break me off a piece. Actually just watched a TikTok about how that commercial, like, you know, at the time, Kit Kats were extremely unpopular. And the whole like coffee break, give me a break, made Kit Kat the number one candy bar in the world. When they were like low key, like losers struggling. Interesting, that's like the Twix one with the left and right factory. I think that's the worst marketing campaign.

6:45And it's like you could have two lefts. Like, it's just stupid. And in such like politically divisive times. You thought so? I never even thought of it like that. I think there were people who were only buying left Twix and people who were only buying right Twix. I never even thought about it like that. I just think it created, it made the divide in this country even worse. And I think the Mars company has a lot to explain. Interesting. I do. Well, that's your candy update for the day yes don't worry i ate candy last night it was so good we had sweet potato and if you've been thinking about sweet potato maxin so good we just cut the sweet potatoes in half mash it with a fork no no no then place them in the oven to roast one hour 400 400 is olive oil salt skin up

7:20flesh down and then we are maxinilling out max and relaxing all cool. Shooting some b-ball outside of the school. I think I might max again. Wow. Yeah, I think I might. Don't overdo it, sister. Don't overdo it. Because you could do like a taco theme. Yeah, of course you could change the ethnicity of your sweet potato. You can go to the Caribbean. You can go Latina, of course. Italian. I might have a Latina sweet potato tonight. An Italian sweet potato. Bu, of course. Italian. I might have a Latina sweet potato tonight. An Italian sweet potato. Buongiorno. Correct. You go Mediterranean, do like a hummus. Oh, interesting. You could really. I love Mediterranean night, but it's a lot of chopping.

7:57Mediterranean is not my favorite cuisine. Probably because it's like the cuisine that's probably the healthiest. Like Italian is fat as fuck. Yeah. Asian, you could go either way. way yeah you could make it fat an asian sweet potato bowl sounds nice as well it does and we could have your belinda's my melinda's you guys know when i was on my weight watchers journey which i will be on again soon but melinda's is good anytime yes but i only discovered it because i was in this like underground facebook group for like people who needed to eat on weight watchers but like wanted to exert zero points. And I got a couple of recipes, some of which I still use to this day. True story. And they were like, you have to get this chili sauce to make your – because you can use unlimited.

8:33Usually the sauce is where the points get you. And so I discovered my Melinda's Thai Chili. What do you guys know about Melinda's Thai Chili? I think everyone knows. I think it's like a huge company. I only know about it from you. Yeah, I know. But like you're not a sauce person. I'm not a sauce.. I'm not a sauce. But like, Ben made a sauce. It was very collaborative as well. You know? Because Ben made his yum yum sauce. Or special sauce, sorry. I'm sorry that everybody just had to see me like put my whole mouth on the water bottle. It is what it is. These days, like I can't get enough water. That's great. That's good. It is. But like, I haven't drank still water i am living proof that drinking seltzer is the same

9:09as drinking regular water because if it wasn't i would be dead i've not picked up a bottle of just like poland spring or down here zephyr hills oh no we don't fuck with zephyr pure life who the fuck came up with that name zephyr hills it must be the name of the town i'm i'm like poland spring till i die and they don't sell poland spring down here no it's it's could you get it like delivered like that's an expense maybe from like bedbridge universe or something yeah water's very regional yeah so zephyr hills is definitely a knock in the florida column but we have pure life which is totally like kirkland kirkland is normal and fine, but do not give me a Zephyr Hills. We have dear toasters today.

9:49Just want to let you know, like to be conscious of the time. Okay. And we actually have great stories. Like I literally sat down in the first five stories in my email. We're the first five stories. Will we be discussing Sophia Franklin on Watched Robbins Live? We will. I'm going to find a way to work that in. Because I have a rant. It's need to discuss information. I have a rant about our queen. Okay, so someone's getting the boot. Who will it be? Yeah, well, no, I could just talk about it right now. No, Oh, I guess Cynthia Evo's getting the boot, yeah. Well, she's running out of goodwill anyways. Without further ado, it is time for the Fast Five stories that you do need to know. This ad placement is paid for by Bath & Body Works.

You could recognize the packaging. They're popping up everywhere.

13:33They are so popular. And they kind of took the protein community, as sweet potato maxers were obviously a part of this community. They took the sweet potato maxing community by storm because of their calories from protein ratio. So I think a lot of us have protein bars that we love. Some of them have a lot of protein, but they have so many calories. And sometimes they don't even have that much protein and they still have so many calories. Well, David's has 28 grams of protein, 150 calories and zero sugar. So that's a 75% calories from protein ratio, which makes it the highest protein to calorie ratio of any leading bar on the market. And it's also delicious. The gold bars feature an indulgent doughy texture studded with satisfying chunks and

14:07airy crisps. There are so many good flavors. And it's not like, I feel like they have like a head chef or something because their flavors are like always a little bit more elevated. Like a salted peanut butter, peanut butter chocolate chunk, blueberry pie, red velvet, cinnamon roll. I go for the more savory. I feel like that's not surprising. Babin obviously goes for like, you know, the more like acai like flavors that I don't but Ben obviously goes for the more acai flavors that I don't like, but it's very personal. It's very personal. Most protein bars are packed with excess calories and sugar. While David is different, they deliver the most protein for the fewest calories. It's great for staying full, hitting your protein goals

14:35without compromising on taste or texture. They also recently launched shakes. Ben is obsessed with them. Highly recommend checking those out too. They're gold. You can't miss them. So don't just take our word for it. Grab it for yourself. Head to Walmart today to stock up on four counts of your favorite flavors, like Ben's Blueberry Pie or My Salted Peanut Butter.

Our first story, Secret Lives, the Mormon Wives star, Jen Affleck, files for divorce from her husband, Zach Affleck, four months after announcing their pregnancy with their fourth child. So Jen and Zach are going their separate ways. She filed for divorce from her husband after seven years of marriage. She filed on Tuesday in the 4th Judicial District Court in Provo, Utah, according to the filing obtained by People. TMZ was the first to report the news.

16:54But she's in the OC now. As a reminder, four months ago they announced that they are pregnant with their fourth child. So as far as we know, she is pregnant. Yeah, she is. I saw her last night. She went to the OC premiere. And divorcing. Which is like never a good place to be. And there's a lot of like jokes being made. I'm like, we'll talk about all that, of course. But like at its core, this is like a tragedy, right? This is like a family with a lot of young kids and literally one that's not even born yet. And they're breaking up. It's awful. I do think that this show has been overwhelmingly bad for them. And it's funny because I saw like so many people being like, oh, he's the worst. So glad she got away from him.

17:28And it's like my POV is like, oh, she's the worst. I'm so glad he got away from her. Like they're just so incompatible. And I think that's like a perfect example of like why people say you shouldn't get married young because they've both changed so much. Obviously, the fame is a huge factor, but they both, I think, like, took the fame and the success and just like did different things with it and became different people. And those two people are not compatible. They're really not. And I do feel like they tried, honestly. And like, I can't even blame them for getting divorced, except for the fact that you have a child on the way. So it's like, try harder, barring some really bad circumstances. Like,

18:02yeah, I don't want to judge because I don't know what happened but I do think that if you are getting divorced when you are pregnant that things are terrible they have to be terrible because nobody would do that nobody would do it to themselves to their family especially with three other young children and I don't want to like jump to conclusions because we have no idea what's going on but last we saw them from my perspective like she was having a mental break yeah and you also shouldn't make huge decisions when you're pregnant period because like you're not to be like women are emotional but like I'm pregnant right now and I'm sure if you were to ask me my take on something I would say this and then a year I would say

18:38something else like your emotions really do like persuade you to feel things that like maybe are just heightened or maybe you don't feel or maybe it's the pregnancy rage like it is a real thing that like you become a different person when you are pregnant and I just wouldn't make any long-term decisions right now yeah which leads me to assume that something crazy has happened because I don't think you do this unless something crazy has happened. You don't do this. Honestly, so many crazy things have happened between them. But like, you know, an unforgivable something. Like a cheater. Not just like, you're annoying me. We're incompatible. But you want to go to the church and I don't. You know what I mean?

19:17Like those are normal marital problems that like we can deal with when we have the bandwidth, when we don't have such young children and I'm not pregnant. Yeah, it could be deeper than that. It also could be like, she's coming off of a really bad season where I think she got a lot of negative feedback, a lot of hate. She's also pregnant. So much of that hate had to do with her role in her marriage. Like maybe that just like, you know, makes it a tough marriage to be a part of. Unacceptable. Agreed, agreed. And that's why this is hard for me to like, speak on without like, coming off a little bit judgmental. Judgmental, totally. But this is a crazy thing to do if nothing crazy has happened and it's just your usual

19:47unhappy marriage. Like at least just wait. Until you give birth. Like come to yourself. We say it a lot in your toasters. I forget. Maybe you said it. You saw it somewhere. Like don't make big decisions like this when you have a child under two. Yeah. Unless and we're always saying. Barring extreme circumstances, abuse, et cetera. Yeah. Cheating. Yeah. Yeah. So that's why I'm not. She also just has like a lot of change in her life, period. Like she is leaving the Utah wives. She's going to the OC wives. Have they moved? Maybe they have to file in Utah because that's where they were legally married, but. Not necessarily. She probably just popped into OC to film the show. Like. Yeah. She's just all over OC to film the show. Like, yeah, she's just all over.

20:25And she is. Yeah, I think they really became like rootless when the show started and they like stopped going to church and they moved to Arizona and they moved to New York and now they moved to the OC. And what did he say? They've moved nine times in the last few years. Like these are not like great circumstances for like a young family. No. And they've moved so many times like in pursuit of her career and her dreams. And those dreams really haven't panned out. And I think that's why she was so resentful towards Whitney, who's like kind of doing it all. And it seems impossible. She also has young kids and she moves a lot. And her marriage was tested. But it seems just to be working out a lot better for her.

21:04So like it's no wonder she's so resentful of Whitney and like very clearly just jealous. A lot of people were like commenting that, you know, the timing of her announcement is just like overshadow because yesterday Whitney and her family made an announcement that they have a new show coming out. And like, I don't, I actually don't think it had anything to do with that. I think that also, you know, the OC premiere was last night. I saw a TikTok like that all the girls were together. So I think like net net, this is, you know, positive for the show. And it does sort of cement, not cement, it creates something for a storyline. Well, yes, because for me, I'm like, give me Slamu now. Like, I need to understand what's

21:40going on between Jen and Zach that would lead to something like this. Like for me, I'm like, whatever they're putting on, I was going to watch anyway. Zach that would lead to something like this. Like for me, I'm like, whatever they're putting on, I'm, I was going to watch anyway, but now I have to watch. No. And also in terms of Jen and the new show, like, I don't really know what I would be tuning in to me. The most interesting parts of Jen or her relationship with the Utah ladies. So now she's going to OC. Well, now I have to watch, like I need to know what's going on. Yeah. But I do think it's not just like a ploy for attention, attention for the show to separation exactly not a filing she went home to utah to file paperwork yeah and i think

22:12that's just a really crazy place to be with three young children and pregnant and so i have to assume that like things have deteriorated far more than what we saw and maybe it's just like me being naive but the last we saw of him, and by the way, he was the woe in the beginning. I agree with everyone. We all know we were all there. He definitely seemed really sound of mind to these last like two, three seasons. He was the one who was taking on a majority of the housework. Very supportive. but also like realistic. And that last conversation they had in the soda shop that he clearly is an investor in was actually, I think like it was a devastating scene, but it was quite a good scene for Zach because I think it made it sort of sort of cleared up a lot of the misconceptions about him that he is this like sort of unsupportive, old school, traditional woman in the kitchen type of.

22:59No, he's been like very comfortable for many years, sort of following his wife around and taking on the majority of like the child rearing more domestic roles and he just wanted to have that conversation offline and she was sort of like exploiting it for the show and it was just a bad look for her and so the last I saw of him maybe he's a totally different guy offline but the last I saw of him I was like no this is a guy who's trying yes and that was our take I know some people disagreed with us that we thought like he was a good supportive husband and like we were in their domestic disputes we were actually team zach because we saw her like now she wants to do sports illustrated and write music and write music and she's like tick tocking alone in new york with

23:34the other girls she's going on this trip to see a girl that she hates like every i thought all of her behavior she's you know was a rocking taylor i thought all of her behavior was so erratic and i felt strange watching it i can't say what I was seeing and feeling. But it just felt strange. I think a lot of the fans never moved on from Chippendale game. And so much has happened since then. I have sort of started to see another side of him since Dancing with the Stars. Even in her confessionals, the way she was speaking, just something was not aligned. And I want to say that I feel it's such an unfortunate time for her to be on TV because she's the type of person who's having multiple children really close together.

24:09So that's like six years of being pregnant, postpartum, breastfeeding. You're really not yourself at all until you're done. And with her, when she's done, she gets pregnant again. So like the cycle sort of continues. And I feel like she doesn't really know herself. We don't know her. And she's just sort of stuck in this cycle of like hormones. I know that's like terrible to say. It's like, yeah, it's like reductive to women. But I'm experiencing it right now. I don't feel like I'm the best version of myself. I honestly don't even know who I am. I don't know what to wear. Like, I'm just like sort of trudging through it until I can get back. And I had started to feel like myself before I got pregnant.

24:41So when you're doing it so quick back to back, like, I don't feel like you get an opportunity to sort of find yourself again. And she's doing it on a public stage. And so people are, of course, are critical. And so that's why I give Grace on Dancing with the Stars, I'm like, everyone be nice to Jen. Like, shut up if you have something nasty to say. And those aren't necessarily my issues. But even like the fact that she like keeps growing her family and now is going to file for divorce pregnant, I can't compute it. It's decisions that are incongruous with one another. Yeah. So hopefully we'll know more soon, but all in all, this is just very sad. I haven't seen any jokes, but like I have no jokes to make about it.

25:20No, it's bad. It's sad. Our next story related, Secret Lives, Mormon Wives star Whitney Leavitt gets her own reality show on Hulu. So six months after announcing she was leaving Slamu, Whitney Leavitt is back in business with Hulu. Deadline understands that Leavitt is set to star and produce her own show for Hulu. The streamer has greenlit the untitled series, which comes from the Mormon Wives producer and production houses. It will, quote, follow firebrand Whitney Leavitt and her family as they navigate her newfound fame and career ambitions while always putting family first. It sounds like House of Leavitt. Yes. I think a lot of people have wanted this. I think a lot of people prayed for this. And I think a lot of people predicted this. Now, I do find her life so interesting because she's in a similar what we were just saying.

26:09Gen, young children, all these opportunities, marital scuffles, of course, who could forget the great dating app saga. And she seems to be balancing it all perfectly. Now, of course, nobody's perfect. I'm interested in taking a peek under the hood. I really am. I am, too. I just like get nervous about shows like this because they're never successful. It is really hard. And the thing about Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is I don't really think any of them need their own show. The interesting part is the dynamic. Yes. And also, no, like I need a fifth of how you manage your home life and then this one and then this one and this one. How are you going to fill in out? It's hard to go from being part of an ensemble to filling the whole hour.

26:45Most people are unsuccessful in doing it. Well, also say that Whitney Lee Abbott is good at everything that she does. True. And I think she'll find success in this because she finds success in everything. I'm just saying, like, typically when someone leaves a show and starts their own show, it's very hard. Even the biggest star from that show, Bethany. Yeah. Bethany Ever After and Bethany Says I Do. Like those were not huge hits. Yeah. And she was sort of like a guaranteed star. Like if I was on a successful ensemble show and everyone's like, yeah, you're on Trouble. It's like, no, it's a trap. It's a curse. It's a trap. But it's like you get to shine when you have other people around you that like lift you up.

27:23It's just a better dynamic. And you have to have a lot going on in your life and a lot that you want to share for it to work. And a lot of like supporting characters who we care about. Stassi is a good example. That's why I say House of Leavitt. Yeah. Oh, they're talking about House of Dragons. Yeah, like Stassi. I think Stassi brought in like as many people as she could because it is almost impossible to do it. Even if you're the most interesting, dynamic, funny, successful, it's just a lot of airtime to fill without like spilling your guts completely. So yeah, having an ensemble, I don't know like who's in her world. To me? Oh, you know what? Bring back to me. Yeah. I kind of want to hear what she has to say now.

27:59At the time I wasn't ready for it. But I don't know, their parents or something? Sure. I hope they've been filming. I can think of a couple successful, like the Zolciaks were a successful spinoff. They were. I wasn't ready for it. But I don't know, their parents or something? Sure. I hope they've been filming. I can think of a couple successful, like the Zolciaks were a successful spinoff. They were. They're an ensemble themselves. The family's 11 people. Exactly. It's not just Kim and Kroy. And it's like, Winnie has three kids, but they are toddlers. I don't want to watch your toddler. No, and please, don't make your toddler the star of the show. It's uncomfortable. It's cruel. Another success,

28:26the Bella Twins that's interesting let's discuss they were on remind me because that's a little bit of a blind WWE divas divas yeah yeah what was it called and then they got Bella Twins uh-huh then they got the belt what it was that too I just can't like take anything on a seriously I don't know why to me the network is such a flop even though that show in that series was not a flop and it really made the bella twin stars no and it's like it was about like their parents and their stepdad john cena and their like boyfriends and husbands and everybody everybody got involved in all of it and yeah that was really good they had like a good family that could spin off yeah the kardashians have done many successful spinoffs yes but they were

29:05more so like anthologies like they were miniseries yeah um it's not a guaranteed flop but it's hard it is harder than I think people think although I mean personally like I hope they've been filming I would love to know I think for sure she had said no to traitors because it's like Connor's time and then Connor got off in the first week and she literally texted them like no i'll come now like i would love to know how that worked um i think they live in new york i think they live in utah now and i just saw she filmed an ad in a gorgeous kitchen that's not in new york but didn't they make a whole thing about her moving to new york even after chicago and she was gonna do another show no and then they also

29:43did like a home spread with the magazine, but it was in a, they moved back to Utah. I'm pretty sure that was the thesis. I think the success of all the women is predicated on them always being in Utah. Like, I don't know why I think it's like a part of the recipe for success. So, and I don't think that she's right for New York. Like, stints for your Broadway shows, of course. But the interesting thing about these women is their connection to the church. Like, it is this sort of anomaly that people are obsessed with. And so I hope that the show films in Utah. They live in Utah. And I imagine other cast members, they all left on good terms with her besides Jen. So maybe we'll get cameos. Like Macy and Mikaela.

30:22Yeah. That's slomo. Macy and Mikaela are also teasing their own show, Eminem. And they're writing in the comments about production and stuff. If everyone's getting their own show, why don't you put it all together and make it the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives? If Whitney Lee Ovid is going to have her own show with Demi and Macy and Mikaela, that's slum-u. Because Taylor's leaving. Jen is MIA. That's Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Yeah. I don't know. It's just, I find that it's a trap, but I also feel like Whitney Lovett. If anyone can do it. When she puts her mind to something, she will succeed. I agree. I personally will be watching. Me too. What was the name of the show? They're Untitled. So I'm just calling it House of Lovett.

30:59Okay. Leading Lovett. Yeah. Or they could do like installments. If Hulu like gives all these people spin-offs, like it could just be like House of Blank. Kind of a good idea. Yeah. The House of franchise. Like Stassi would have to own it because she did come up with the name. Yeah, sure. Sure. Executive produced by Stassi Schroeder. Love it. Yeah. Oh, Jessie Draper. Yeah. Is the other slum moo. She's got a lot going on in her house. She does. Lots of supporting characters. House of brunette. Okay, are you ready for our next story? Sophia Franklin bartended on Watch What Happens Live to promote her new memoir, Daddy Issues. Angie Kay and Michelle Collins were guests on the episode. And Sophia actually had some words with Angie Kay.

31:50I guess they had some beef. It's a little confusing. Sophia Franklin's from Utah. So a lot of people don't put that together. She does a lot of Utah content with Slamu and Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. I think she had said that her mom was approached to be on the show. I think maybe her mom knows the women. To be honest, I don't really care about the Angie thing. I wanted to talk about this because I was so shocked to see her bartending. Seriously, who's getting fired? And it's not like, you know, they had unreal guests they couldn't postpone. I actually really like Michelle Collins. She's been on the show 10,000 times. I think she's sort of like one of his like sub ins, like when somebody cancels or they need someone

32:24in New York, someone who could come on short notice. Kelly Ripa. He has people who will just, John Mayer, who will just like, John Hill, who will just hop in. I believe she's one of them. She gives great takes and she's a very good villain. This is not a slight. She's been on the show 10,000 times. Like literally 10,000 times. Put Sofia in the chair. Sofia's writing the tell-all of the season. When I saw her standing there there I wish she had declined it And I know like she's just doing press right now And so any press is good press And honestly she's making more news as a bartender Than literally anybody ever has But I was so shocked and disappointed And I feel like that was a huge miss for Watch What Happens Live

32:56And they had sat her down and just asked her I heard I saw a girl on TikTok Her like local bookstore like had it early And she read it She says it's the craziest book She said you guys aren't ready for the tea. I skipped it because I didn't want, I didn't know if she was going to spill it. No spoilers. You could have literally had the interview of the century and you made her the bartender. I'm mad. I'm mad on her. I'm sure she was insulted too. But you just take the opportunity. And I think she did an amazing job. They also asked her about Mosquito Island, which is the Real Housewives of New York. She volunteered because the question was like, which of the house husbands for Michelle Collins

33:27you still think could get it? She was like, Mauricio. And then Andy asked, Sophia, have you ever partied with Mauricio? Which like she probably has. But she had a relevant Bravo story. She was like, no, but I have been to Mosquito Island. Which is the island on Real Housewives of New York that's being like widely contested. Is it a private island? Is it a dump? And so this is a person who's literally been there. Like she would have been an amazing guest. Yeah, and then Andy said that she was almost cast for Summer House. And she was like, yeah, I made it to the final rounds, but I didn't get it. I'm so glad she didn't, by the way. And he was like, oh, that seems like a miss from casting, because you would be great.

34:00And she was like, yeah, but I think I'm meant to be more of an author. I was cracking up. She would have been an amazing guest. It was like, yeah, but I think I'm meant to be more of an author. I was cracking up. She would have been an amazing guest. It was like, we got so many moments. All the clips, because I went on Watched Robbins Live's TikTok today to see the clips. They were all about Sophia. So it's like, your bartender is making more news than the people in your chairs. And then Angie confronted her. I guess Sophia on her podcast a couple of years ago started a rumor that one of her boyfriends that she was seeing hooked up with who she didn't say Angie, but everybody assumed it was Angie.

34:26Like she gave clues or whatever. And Angie was mad because at the time Angie was married and it's not true. And Sophia like literally didn't even apologize. She was like, oh yeah, it wasn't you. And I'm glad we cleared that up. Like she didn't, even though Angie was like, that hurt my feelings, you hurt my marriage. Sophia was like, you were sort of waiting for her to be like, and you're right. She was like, well, it wasn't. So I'm glad we took care of that. She's so funny. I can't believe what a missed opportunity it was. And I'm very curious. The book comes out in like five days. What other PR she's doing? I haven't seen. I know she's been doing all these sort of literary excerpts and Vanity Fair articles,

35:00but like a sit down. I don't think she'll do Jay Shetty. I think she could. I think she could, but I actually don't know if that do like jay shetty i think she could i think she could but i don't actually don't know if that would be right for her she could do it's going howard stern like howard stern notoriously hates alex cooper so like you know that's funny but also alex stern's audience like isn't they don't care they're not paying attention to this she could go on jake shane i don't think jake shane people are are in this industry like still afraid of alex cooper she actually is a very powerful woman in media and I think if you have Sophia Franklin on your show like you're sort of aligning yourself with one side or the other um and I don't know if Jake Shane like wants to put

35:34himself in the middle of that that's why like more traditional media like they don't give a fuck like yeah she should have been everyone on you wrote a book was the perfect it should have just been that yeah but I think Jay Shetty Jay Shetty doesn't care he doesn't he's not in like the swirly no he's not and there is like a deeply emotional traumatic part of what she went through aside from the gossip that we're all looking for being universally canceled yes but also like her abortion that she talks about and also like her daddy issues the show is a the book is about like her life it's not just about alex they call her daddy stuff so i think there's a lot more she could talk about i wouldn't be surprised if she's like next week on jay shetty a lot of people who

36:09write a book then like supplement with a jay shetty interview i'm trying to think like more like hayden penitier yes yes yes i'm just trying to think like what other outside of podcasts like amy poehler that would be good that would be fun but again like that as an Amy Poehler woman in podcasting like you are sort of no I think Amy Poehler is above the drama there are people who are above the drama yes like I think Jake Shane like is in like the girly sphere he's in the mix so yeah that would be planting your flag go on hot mess yes she could but it's not like an interview show I mean maybe she will oh get real with me do you get real but it's not like an interview show. I mean, maybe she will. Oh, get real with me.

36:45Do get real with me. That is an interview. But it wouldn't be like, you know, tell me about your child. No, no. And it's a little too obvious. And everything she's doing so far is like very highbrow. So not that get real is not highbrow, but I think she'll continue to do more like mainstream outlets. Yeah. I'm curious. And she's obviously hired like very good PR because. She's in the New York Times. She's in Bounty Fair. It's come across our desk multiple every day. Yeah. In every way. I just couldn't believe they made her bartender like. I feel and I'm not saying this in a bad way. I feel like the bar for guests on Watch What Happens Live has actually not gotten lower, but expanded. Yes. They include lots of different like podcasters, digital talent.

37:23And I think it's great because for a while it's like how many Bravo Leopardies and the same four Bravo fans can you like swap in and out so you started to have like you know Danny Pellegrino and I think it's great when they like incorporate yeah when they incorporate digital talent so like I was shocked like yeah and usually these influencers first of all I find influencers like more interesting than a traditional celebrity I would watch an episode with Danny Pellegrino and Tinks 10 times faster than I would watch an episode with like Jessica Alba. Right. A hundred percent. She's my go to boring celebrity. She's so boring. That's why. You know, and it's like I don't need to hear an interview, but like, go.

37:57I love your movie. Yeah, right. Love the Honest Company. I really love the wipes. But it's like that's just like my when I think about like just a boring celebrity. Sort of bland. Yeah. Influencers oftentimes have had a lot of encounters and experiences with like the Bravo world. And like remember Tinks was involved in like the Jesse Solomon drama? Like we need to know that. Even Sophia, she had this like Angie Kay connection. And she auditioned for Summer House. She definitely has partied with the people. There's literally no reason. And I can't stress enough how much I actually really like Michelle Collins. Taylor Strecker's really good friends with her. And she says she's really cool. And this is not a slight against her.

38:35She's a perfect sub. She's well-read on Bravo. She literally could have been tomorrow. I understand Angie. They probably aired Salt Lake City last night. So you have someone from the show. And Angie and Sophia would have been great. Like two aired Salt Lake City last night, so you have someone from the show. And Angie and Sophia, it would have been great. Like two ops. Or Sophia tomorrow night. Like literally whatever. Bring her back. Seriously, fix it. Do it again. All the comments were like, bartender? Yeah. And these days, bartender is really just like the bakery down the shop that paid. It's a sponsorship. Like the creative director of bubbly, sparkling wine. Exactly. Or like Bread's Bakery. Yeah, it's a sponsorship. It a sponsorship like the creative director of bubbly sparkling wine like exactly or like breads bakery yeah it's a sponsorship it's more often than not paid it's not like a personality no yeah because like i think the personalities realized it's the worst

39:17gig in the industry yeah like you get three minutes of airtime andy you're a nuisance to andy like he's just i think he wishes he never started the bartender thing because it's just like sort of this like, like nap. Yeah. And it's like, he's already in a rush and hates his guests. And I was like, talk to the bartender. Who paid to be here. Correct. But you didn't pay when you were the bartender. No, no. I was higher talent. But like years later we had inquired about having having ben bartend to like for like spritz and we were trying to like do it like in a funny way and they were like well if it's for a brand it's so anytime you see like a product or like a it's it's paid i think it was like five thousand

39:55dollars and i was like that's seriously a waste of money that's it or maybe it was more it's definitely more i'm remembering it being five or twelve those two numbers like are coming to me five like is a a good deal to get your brand on Watch It, I'm in Sive and Andy has to engage with it. Right. And if it's a good brand like with the right audience, everyone be like, oh, we love this. Yeah. It's a risk because sometimes you're the bartender and it's like it ends up being bad for your brand because like Andy hates you, everyone hates you. And then sometimes you really can make a moment out of it very rarely and Sophia did. Yeah. It's a gamble. Yeah. It's a $5,000 gamble. Are you ready for our next story?

40:25What number? Bravo News 4. Yes. Summer House star Lindsay Mother Hubbard reveals her vulnerable new memoir called Activated. So Lindsay Hubbard is ready to share her story with readers no holds barred. The Summer House star will publish her debut memoir, Activated, in 2027 through Simon Schuster Imprint Gallery Books. People can exclusively reveal the cover so we have Lindsay looking off to the side with activated above her head I guess like the time is right she's obviously like on the other side of her journey she was this sort of like controversial somewhat polarizing reality star she went through like lows and highs and contours and then she came out on top she got like sort of like a mini Ariana Maddox treatment where she's like now well

41:08respected. She's like a she's like a Bravo Hall of Famer. So it's a good time to write a book. When I think of the things I want from Lindsay Hubbard, I hadn't thought of a book. I'm sure it'll be good. I think she has a story to tell. She's 40 years old, so she had lived life before she was on Bravo. She said, I've sat down many times over the years to write this book, but life moves quickly in my world. Turning 40 felt like the right time to finally tell my whole story. The book promises never before told stories, along with a thrilling look at her life before cameras started rolling. I mean, we know she has an interesting childhood. Oh, do we? Yes. And like her relationship with her mom.

41:45Oh, yeah. And she like doesn't have one. Right. So I think there's probably a lot there. She said, although you've seen bits and pieces of my journey on TV, there's so much more that fans don't know about my life. From my childhood to college years and my insane PR days. She went to college. Yeah. And then she was a publicist. I remember that she came on as like this hub house, like high powered publicist in the early days of Summer House. I'm giving you all the details of my very full life with vulnerability laughter comedy and excitement i mean every year let's say a handful of reality stars and influencers write their memoirs you know who are chosen by carl's was really well received yeah craig did

42:16it a lot of did he have pillows and beer was it no that's a podcast what's wrong with my sewing it's a great name for a book, but I don't think it is. I forget what his was called. We had him on. It was like six years ago. I remember. Lala Kent wrote hers. I think Sheena did. Stassi, of course, did. Pillow Talk. Cute. And of course, his children's book, Patchwork. Oh, yes. A new addition to my library. Yes. So I think Lindsay's a good choice. Like if they're looking at, Jesse Draper is writing hers. Layla. Macy, you know. So if they're looking at people who are ready to write, I actually think she's a better choice than most because she is 40. She is now a mother. She's on the other side of, you know,

43:00probably the crazy times in her life and probably has a lot of lessons to share. So I think this is a good choice. I agree. And it's a good title too. Oh, title? Activated. Yeah. Like literally what else could it have been? What else could it be? There's actually a lot it could be, but that's good. I approve. Memoirs of a Hubbard.

Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lawrence hit the streets in matching PJs on a girls' night out. So Kim and J-Law are kicking off the holiday season with a girls' night out. They were spotted entering the Four Seasons Hotel and leaving in matching skims PJs from the brand's new holiday campaign. Oh, I didn't see them leaving in the... Yeah, matching robes, matching pajamas.

49:47Well, they obviously both are getting something out of this because Jennifer Lawrence clearly, who's never been spotted, like, ever. She's twice a day now. Historically, you know, very private. Being spotted with Kim, like, thanks, because we're here to support S-degree. And on the way out, we're supporting Skims degree. Like, women in business. I'm reading right through this. Oh, of course. I mean, we know that they are friends. Like, women in business. I'm reading right through this. Oh, of course. I mean, we know that they are friends. Did they say where they went? Did they go to Amman? They said Four Seasons. Oh, okay, okay. We know they're friends. J-Lo loves Chris. We just saw her beef with Kourtney on the show.

50:17I don't doubt that this is a real friendship. I think just like the timing is obviously very strategic. Yeah, like, hey, let's make a moment, you know? And maybe they would have had dinner anyway, but like... Privately. Yeah, Jennifer Lawrence doesn't do that. No. Like, that curb walk. Yeah, no, we're literally seeing her twice a day in the morning, offer her morning walk. Pajamas. We're seeing her morning pajamas and her evening pajamas. Yeah, yeah, she's doing the most, which you have to do. I would love to know how Miss Degree is doing, like, sales-wise. I saw, like, a couple people reviewing it. I saw one review. I didn't see PR or anything. I saw someone got sent it. And so she was using it, and she didn't like it, but... Oh. But she... Oh, she didn people reviewing it. I saw one review. I didn't see PR or anything. I saw someone got sent it.

50:45And so she was using it and she didn't like it. Oh. But she. Oh, she didn't like it. But she wasn't like trying to be rude or anything. It was like. Like an honest review. She was just like, yeah. Yeah. But what I liked, one product that she has is like this leave-in thing that you put in before you shower and then you wash it in the shower, which I love that. I hate a leave-in mask that I have to do in the shower. What, I just wait there for 10 minutes? I think a lot of them. Are before the shower and then you wash it in the shower, which I love that. I hate a leave-in mask that I have to do in the shower. What, I just wait there for 10 minutes? I think a lot of them are before the shower. You wash it out in the shower. I've never had a mask like that. You put

51:11on dry hair and then you go in the shower. Yeah. Some of them are like for a bather. Like a lot of them, you put them in your wet hair. So you lay in the bath with a mask. I'm in the shower. I'm like standing there. No, I agree. It's a bath thing. It's not a shower thing. So I like the idea of a dry mask that washes off in the shower. That works for my workflow. Yeah. Agreed. I get the sense that you're really baiting for PR and it's not working. So you just have to buy it and you have to try it and perhaps do a whole tutorial. Oh, no, I wasn't baiting for PR. So what's stopping you from getting the product? Where do they sell it? Just online? Yeah. I just, like, I have a lot of stuff. Of course.

51:48Overconsumption culture is so real. And I didn't see anyone say, like, oh my God, you need this mess degree. So I'm just sort of waiting. I have not seen anyone saying you need this S degree. I'm waiting and seeing. And listening and learning. But I'm trying to stay open and supportive. Yes, you are. That's very sweet of you. You know? Yeah. Like, she never did anything wrong to me. No, of course not. I just want to say I am now like looking at her hair. Yes. And she's covered it with a hood. Yeah. But maybe that's the mess, you know, in mess degree. And the thing is, is like, regardless of whether or not I think this was like a good choice for Sarah Jessica Lawrence. What's her name? Jennifer Lawrence.

52:24Oh, my God. If anyone, like even my faves had released this, I am not the target demo for a hair care brand that endorses mess. Like my hair, like I always want my looking for, I call your brand polish degree. Like I want a silky smooth, polished look, a perfectly straight part. No flyaways. Like this is just not my hair philosophy. I had the craziest dream. I know like nobody cares, but we were with Taylor Swift. No, no, Jackie, for real. I feel like it means something. We were with Taylor Swift and she was like kind of giving us like an interview, but she was also just like talking to us. And she shared that she has a five-year-old daughter named May, M-A-E. And as she's like telling us,'re screaming like we're like i can't believe it like some construction is starting like

53:12in the room that we're in so like there are all these construction workers like we have this like huge high profile piece of information like so me you and taylor are like running around this house i think it's like the house we grew up in actually we're running around this house looking for a private place and every time we go into a room there's like a construction worker laying in your bed or like we can't and so we never get to like tie like beyond we never get to hear more it's kind of a crazy dream i believe it may because at first when she said that may her daughter i'm like oh my god her and travis had a baby then she was like and she's five so i'm like oh it's joe alwyn's baby it's like the baby that

53:41we always thought everybody did think that during her, before Reputation, when she took that year off, Kim- No, we didn't think that, it's not like everybody thought she had a baby, but it's like, well, you could have had a baby. And it would have been actually a good time. Yeah. She was not spotted for a whole year. Nobody even knows geographically where she was. Yeah. It would have been the perfect time to have a child. So, and I think the name is totally, she would have Mace with. M-A-E. 100%. M-A-E Kelsey. No, but it wouldn't be Travis's. have Mae Swift. M-A-E. A hundred percent. Mae Kelsey. No, but it wouldn't be Travis. Oh, right. But maybe he would adopt. Mae Alwyn. He would adopt. I think it would be Mae Swift.

54:11I think she did it herself. As she motherfucking should. And I think Travis will adopt Mae. I think so too. And he will be the father that stepped up. But honestly, I think like that was more of a prophecy and less of a dream that's why i shared it nobody wants to share their dreams do i ever come on here and every time i do i'm like embarrassed to share no i'm telling you i'm onto something but you also feel like subconsciously like we can't get a minute alone is that how you feel no no no you know what it is it's like literally like we're 50 feet from start i'm like we got this you know huge piece of information but because of you know other circumstances we can't actually finish it. You know what I mean?

54:46Like it's how we'll be nominated for a Golden Globe, but we won't win. But we'll be nominated. They didn't tell me that in the prophecy, but I'm just like extrapolating. Do you think we'll be nominated? I'm having a hard time because like, obviously I thought no, but the more I'm like left to they gave me a month to think about it. Like, and here are a few reasons why. Statistically, it's not impossible.'re out of 30 out of 30 and I happen to know just like through people I've spoken to like there are four or five shows who will not be submitting and if you could be on the list of 30 but that doesn't mean all 30 are eligible you have to pay to submit you have to put together a lot of work we have to put together this whole presentation

55:20we did it and we did we did it early so i would say maybe 25 those are not five but how many nominees six six out of 25 is like a 30 chance it's not that crazy um also and i don't know i actually wish he didn't say this but we had like a call with our whole team and our agent was like well you guys are obviously being nominated and this is we actually not to brag we have an amazing agent who does like really high profile we're like one of his lower tier well actually go to clubs like he's not just like saying this and he was like you guys are he really believed that we were gonna be nominated i was like are you just saying that he was like no no like it's almost like guaranteed i was like wait what so i wish he didn't say that because now i'm like well we're

55:56obviously getting nominated he said so so you're saying there's a chance he said it not me he's saying there's i would say to the la toasters just keep your eyes open yeah keep your eyes up la toasters we got a little present for you i'll acknowledge your surroundings be aware of your surroundings right don't text and drive i'll say that no never but just be aware of your surroundings la toasters and la voters it's not for the toasters it's for the voters no but the toasters get to experience what's going on. Of course, what we have in store. What was the story? Oh, Mastigree. Mastigree. Mastigree. And that's how S sees it. Mastigree. Mastigree. My hair's a mastigree. Is this a song or are you just making it up?

56:38I'm just making it up. Oh, I didn't know if the tune was supposed to be a song. No, I'm just making it up. I love that. That's so turdy of you. The brand just makes me want to sing. She's obsessed, and you tell me she's not baiting for PR. The brand just makes me want to sing. She's obsessed. And you tell me she's not baiting for PR. The brand just makes me want to sing and dance. Must agree. Let's dive into Dear Toasters, our weekly advice segment, where I guess every Thursday, Jackie and I are giving back to our community. You guys write into us all the time. Like, Turdy, what do you think about this? Jax, what should I do? And we decided to turn it into a segment, Dear Toasters. So you can email us, deartoasters at gmail.com or head on over to our website, thetoastpodcast.com.

57:13Scroll down. There's a little submission box you can share to your heart's desire. Hey, Swirlies, I need your advice. Tell me if I'm being prude or if I should just shut up. My sister-in-law is pregnant, which is amazing. I love babies. I think they're the biggest blessing. And I recently just had my first. The way she does, she does OnlyFans as her main source of income. We thought she'd quit after finding out that she was pregnant, but we found out she's still been posting content while heavily pregnant with no signs of stopping. It feels exploitive and yucky to me. And being a new mom, I can't even fathom what she's doing. I brought it up to my husband multiple times now. It bothers me and

57:42he never wants to talk about it, which I get, that's his sister, but I have to talk about it. Luckily, we don't see her super often, but she's really open about it and I'm worried about my baby growing up around this. I know it's my responsibility as his parent to make sure he knows what's wrong and normal, but I guess I'm feeling angry that I even have to worry about this. Do I suffer in silence or do I really need to broach the subject with my husband? I'm not even sure the outcome I'm expecting or wanting, but I feel like something has to be said or a line needs to be drawn, preferably not by me. Love you girls so much. Thanks for your help. Yeah, your husband doesn't want to talk about his sister's only fancy house.

58:15I just want to say, like, in this particular moment, it doesn't really affect you. Now, down the line of, like, having to, you just had a baby, so you shared that. Down the line of, like, having to explain like having a family member who does, like, sex yeah that's an issue I 100% agree that that's something that would affect you at this present moment it's like not your problem yeah and as someone who just had a baby like you have a lot going on like I would focus on that and of course it's crazy you don't like see her a lot it's not like she's in your everyday life in your child's everyday life so if people like over there want to make their choices this could you could take out the only fans and make this about like anything that people do in their personal lives

58:50that you might not agree with their values that they hold that you might not agree with and don't want your kids around and I think you know that boundary of like being around family but keeping a a safe distance based on whatever they're doing that you don't agree with is something that can easily be drawn. I don't even know if you have to like talk to your husband about it. I'm sure the fact that he doesn't want to talk about it means that it's weird with him too. It's his sister. Yeah. When you said sister-in-law, I wasn't sure if that was like your brother's wife or your husband's. Of course your husband doesn't want to talk about it. Yeah. And like you making it your issue right now, not the time.

59:25Save it for a few years down the line and she might be done with it actually i was just watching trisha paytas on jay shetty and she was talking about her time on only fans i have to say i've never heard somebody be so honest it was actually quite refreshing she said she looks back on that time and she's disgusted like we have as a culture like we've really embraced sex work and it's like we're not judgmental about it and it's a it's a legitimate form of revenue and sure but i think a lot of us like would never do it and think differently and so she it was very refreshing for her to be like i i like i can't sleep at night when i think about it like i'm i want to vomit she explained her reasonings for do it like at first for a lot

59:58of people it's financial then you make so much money doing it like it's really not even about the money anymore she was like i just had such low self-esteem and i just felt like this is what the type of work i deserve to be doing it was really honest and it was also very refreshing like yeah i think we went through an era where it was like you know deemed inappropriate to like say anything negative about sex work um but to hear somebody who had done it and like deeply regretted it she was like if i could send one message to anybody who's even thinking about it like for whatever reasons financial or emotional like do not do it it was like a warning um some people have to come to that decision on

1:00:35their own yeah but there also are like different tiers of what people are doing on only fans yeah yeah this girl could be doing just like kinky pregnant like shit. Like, yeah, like lingerie and just like, you know. But then there are people who film full productions of pornography. Like to completion. I would say those two things are different. I agree. A lot of people do like foot stuff. Yeah, or just like celebrating the female form. Yeah, or like sexy pics. That might even be like appropriate. On Instagram, but then if you realize you can get paid for it and you were doing it for free, then sure. Yeah. So I don't know. This is just like you got to use your judgment and, you know, protect your sphere.

1:01:16But it doesn't sound like it really is encroaching on you at all. Yeah, right now. So just like lay it to the side and pray that it works itself out her kids are going to grow up too and she might just come to the conclusion on her own or not and then you'll have to have a conversation and yes like your husband will have to get involved um next ready hi swirlies i never thought i'd be writing into deer toasters but alas here i am that's the thing deer toasters comes for everyone my boyfriend and I have been together for five years. We have a pretty stable relationship. Last week, he was taking apart our washing machine to fix a weird noise it had been making. Oh, handyman. Well, I don't know what he did, but so hard to come by. Once he fixed the issue,

1:01:56he struggled to reassemble a particular part. He asked me to grab my phone to read him instructions from a Reddit thread. We've always been comfortable using, sharing each other's phones, so I really thought nothing of it. I opened Reddit, I tapped the search bar to find the thread, and was absolutely horrified to see multiple searches in his search history for Bradley on a budget's OnlyFans content. I genuinely froze. He's obviously a toaster. Of all the things I could have discovered while helping my boyfriend fix our washing machine, this was the absolute last thing I expected. I haven't confronted him about it because I genuinely don't know how to approach a conversation. I also haven't told anyone in my personal life out of fear that it'll permanently

1:02:26damage their perception of him am I overreacting is there any way to rationalize this is this something I should address or should I pretend I never saw it I love this man but I genuinely don't know how to look at him in the same way like why is he going to reddit for Bradley on budgets I think because and I'm I'm actually guessing here um I think people try to find OnlyFans content without having to pay for it because like when you pay for it you credit card you should maybe share with your girlfriend maybe people post it i'm just guessing here like screenshots of what goes down you might have just been curious about what goes down on bradley on a budget only fans maybe he's become like a big

1:02:56bradley fan a budget baddie like i could see you going on reddit like to see what people are saying about bradley on a budget's only fans. And it's not because like you're a consumer of it. It's because I'm just curious. The thing is, is that you have to ask because it's possible that your man's gay. So obviously a possibility. And that would just save you a lot of time and heartbreak. And if in five years you walked in and having sex with a man, you would think to yourself, well, I did see that Bradley on a budget thing. I wish I just asked a question. You got to ask. Yeah. And he's entitled to, you know, his privacy when it comes to sexuality. But you don't want to be wasting your time. You know, you're a woman of a certain age.

1:03:31So you just have to ask. I agree. And it's a boyfriend. And he also like, he genuinely could have just been curious. Yeah. No, it's like he could have fallen down the Bradley rabbit hole, as you have of like Bradley's content. And by the way, I'm a huge Bradley rabbit hole. I've never even thought to go look at his OnlyFans content. Or what people are saying about it. Like he might have just gone down an internet rabbit hole. Right, right, right. And ended in a gay place. Yeah, maybe. You know? And sometimes like you do end up in a gay place. Yeah. That doesn't make you gay. Where you might find yourself searching something where it's like, oh my God, if anybody saw me searching this, they'd get the wrong idea.

1:04:04Yeah. And most normal people delete their history. But so he's not hiding. That's true, by the way. Just saying. It could be like, you know, it could have been a deep internet rabbit hole is all. It happens to the best of us. Or he wants to see Bradley getting down. I know you do. I know Zach wrote this in about you. You were fixing the washing machine. You were fixing the washing machine. I was fixing the washing machine. We are having a washing machine issue. What did I say? Hey, Jackson Claude, I'm truly horrified. My in-laws were visiting from out of town today, and as they went to leave the house, I realized that they left a phone. I picked it up to run it down to them, and when I looked at it, I saw Google searches

1:04:40with a bunch of naked women's pictures on it. I need to emphasize that I was not snooping. I literally noticed it just as like I locked the phone in my father-in-law's phone. Just before they left, he was feeding my nine-month-old. Here are my questions. Do I tell my husband? He looks up to his dad so much, and I think this would crush him. Am I justified in making a rule that my sons are not allowed to play with or look at my in-laws phones again? My two-year-old loves to watch music videos with his grandpa, but now I'm feeling like I have to be a psycho about phones i feel like i have no one to talk to about this okay two-year-old watching music videos with his grandpa's the weirdest sentence i ever heard and i put it on the tv like no and also like

1:05:13grandpa came over to play we're not watching music videos i do agree if someone came over to put on music videos with my two-year-old i would say get out okay that's not meaningful play that's not meaningful play and music videos these days are disgusting. Now, I don't know if your concern is that he was looking at the naked photos while playing with the kids. Of course, the screen was open. But also, Google doesn't have naked photos on image search. That's true. But Grandpa probably doesn't know that. But what did she see? Just like bikini girls? I'm not sure. Yeah, this has to be discussed you also the thing is in this day and age you just have to be careful who you leave your kids alone with it's so true family or not

1:05:51did you see that thing about the disney roundup the great disney roundup you can't even trust mickey mouse it's true so yeah you just have like you've been given some sort of like and but you need to tell your husband so that he knows that you're being restrictive for a reason not just because you don't want to hang out with his parents you probably also don't want to hang out with his parents so this is sort of like a win-win but sometimes when the grandparents come over it's great it's like oh we get to put kick our feet up like grandpa's here yeah he's putting on music videos lazy lazy things i could do that yeah right also um where was grandma deadbeat grandma no you're you're underreacting to this it's disgusting it's disgusting and like

1:06:35letting your two-year-old play with your phone letting a two-year-old play with your phone when you have like random proclivities for like google nude searches like you're sick how about this even without your random proclivities of course you don't give a two-year-old a phone if you came to play with them people have different philosophies on phones i agree but you asked for mine you wrote into dear toasters right yes i don't think like you coming over to play with the kids and just like shoving a phone in their face is helpful i could do that and get the dishes done like thanks but no thanks and when come over, it should be like meaningful time. Meaningful play. So yeah, that's just like bad play.

1:07:10Yeah. And so if you're not, if you're not here to bring meaningful play. Get the hell out of my house. Isolation cabin. Okay. I said good day, sir. Sorry, you're going through that. But like, you know, sometimes you need a little bit of like a, like, like the Lord gives you like little warnings sometimes. Like. Yes. Yes. And I know this is a small, a very small example, but I have this beautiful bracelet that Ben got me for my birthday. Oh no, Mother's Day. It's rubies and diamonds. It's like my favorite thing I've ever, ever had. I was making the bed like a couple of weeks ago and I saw that the little oh oh the little thing was unlatched I'm like that's weird it must be loose I have to remind myself to get it fixed of course I didn't we're getting out of the car we're going to yard

1:07:59house of course I need my chicken lettuce wraps and it it's raining. So I'm like, oh, I'm like getting out of the car and I run. And as I'm running, I just sense, I can't even see it. I sense something on the floor. Now it's raining. Why do I want to stop and turn around? But I did. My bracelet was on the floor. The Lord had given me a warning when I was making the bed and I ignored it. And I almost lost my bracelet. Now thankfully he gave me a second warning, got the bracelet fixed. Even though I just saw it's like a little loose again, I might have to get it fixed again. The Lord has given you a warning. Do with that information what you will. Or whatever statue you pray to. The universe.

1:08:35Whatever. It's not religion. I'm not trying to proselytize, of course. But you've been given a warning. Proselytize, Goji. No, we don't do that. We don't. No, Jews, that's like we're notorious we don't you don't like if you want to join judaism you have to ask three times oh but no no i'm not saying like you need to join judaism so what are you proselytize oh find god some of you bitches do need to find god that's absolutely clear in the submissions that i read um but again i am not your preacher keep doing you keep doing you Because it keeps dear toasters interesting.
