Good morning, girlies, it's the Tollos. It's Jackson Claude and where your hoes. It's your favorite show, the fast-five things you need to know. We'll start your day off, swirly, it's the Toast. It sound amazing. Welcome back to The Toast and happy Wednesday. That's right, it's Humpty, and you're not seeing double. You're seeing trouble. You're seeing trouble. Yeah, that's right. We came to work today, did not drive together, and look what happens. It's the ultimate price. We both Jackie walked in wearing the same sweater as me and a curler in her hair. I walked in wearing that same sweater and a curler in my hair. Same sweater, same color. Because we each have this sweater and two colors. And don't tell anyone I wore it yesterday. And we could have been wearing a different color. Yeah. And maybe I would have been, but you took mine. Yes, I wore yours. Yes. I planned to wear this color to match my shoes better and low and behold. It is what it is.
It's just so crazy. It's so cool. Of all the sweaters in all the world. I'm going to study over why I went with this one today. Oh, I have my reason to choose on Bigger's a house. I'm wearing these form-fitting capris that I always like to wear with a card again. But I didn't want to wear a cardigan that was too snug. Because there's... You do not have to explain yourself. It's an amazing sweater. It's one of my favorite wears. It's from Newt shout out. Newt's, please make it in more colors. Yeah, a pig. It will happen less. It's very boxy. It's very flattering. Like the boxy, boxy part. For a big woman, like I recommend this sweater. Agreed. It's an amazing sweater. But I do plan to wear it as a small woman as well. And I'm sure it's going to look just as good. That's a magic of this sweater. Yeah. It's the sisterhood of the traveling card again. Please, like, make more colors, okay? Yeah. And let's just like, you know, let's not get into like who wore a bass. That's just not the types of game we want to play. It's also like, it's not a level playing field. Like, I'm obviously like wearing this cardigan for two. It's just... It's far enough.
Yeah, no, you're not. Um, it's just... It's not a level playing field. I hate being dancing with the stars. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. When do the episodes become one hour? Don't they? Like, when there's less contestants? Never. Really, when there's like five people left, there's still two hours. I think so. Because last night was the first night. Last night? Last night? Last night was the first night where I was like, there are too many people on this show. There are. We are due for a double... I twist my arm a triple elimination. I can go for a double elimination, but I fear that like... Pierre-mo's gone. No. By the way, I decided last night that I think Pierre-mo should win the Marra ball. Okay. I think he should win. But then the only thing that's stopping me is Ezra. Right. Like, for me, it's Pierre-mo or Ezra to win the Marra ball. For me, it's Ezra or Tatiana Ali, who is very quietly becoming my favorite contestant. I have a lot.
I have a good amount of like favorites. I mean, there's a thousand people on this show. There's so many people there and we just sort of need to drain and swamp a little bit. Yeah, we do. Because I'm watching and I'm sort of becoming like detached. I'm like, who's next? I don't care. Yeah. I feel when the season first premiered, I cannot wait to see the dances. And now I'm like, another person. Like, another dance? It's too many people. It's too many people. It's too many people. Actually, that's like a hot take as people like Pasha Nambar. I feel like sorry. Who's on the show that I don't want to be mean saying it? She doesn't want to say it. I'll name him. Who did you say? Pasha Nambar. Sorry, Harry Shum. Like, seriously, except you brought Kurt and Mercedes to the ballroom last night. So you're doing your job. So sometimes when I'm going through dancing with the stars Twitter, I see old clips of previous seasons of like amazing dances. So like Milo and Whitney. I saw one last night about, I believe, Jordan Fisher. People were obsessed with it. And Riley Arnold, older sister, Lindsey. Lindsey. And it was such an amazing dance. And it was a big wheels keep on turning.
And they were doing the drive. And it was incredible ballroom dancing. And like, I want to see that too. That level. And that's what Harry and Jenna are there for to give us some like good dancing. And so I want to try and like appreciate them while they're there. But they're just like not giving us iconic moments. But like, they're the only one. And so, Jordan Fisher was a good dancer and maybe came in amazing dance or dancing with the stars. That's what Harry and Jenna are capable of. And like, we want to see good dancing too. Like, I just want to see a feckin man. Regular putting a bow on and saying you tried your best. Kind of like, see enough regular people doing regular things in everyday life. And everyone is there for a reason. But I do want like, I feel robbed that I don't get to see this Jordan Fisher dance. Well, maybe like, it's so early in the season. It's only week three. Like, maybe I know I'm like broken record. I feel like Tatiana Ali could get to a place where she's giving us Jordan Fisher level. She is so good. I was shook at her dance last night. Our first story is dancing with the stars, right? Our last story, it always is. Because like, not everyone watches. And we just sort of like play this game every week. Yeah, we try not to talk about it. But if you brought it up. I would, because that's what I did last night. Yeah. I watched the long show on television. Yeah, me as well.
We had dinner together. That was. It was nice. That was great. Did we get manicures yesterday? It was. Yeah. Yeah. It's just a fun fact. You know, here in Florida, things are a little different. You know, there are some things for you. You know, sometimes it says it's not as intense as you can imagine. Really fine. Yeah. So, what is that? Jeperty's on its 730. Like right before it starts in New York at seven o'clock. Jeopardy. 730. Wheel of Fortune. Here swapped. Interesting. I was like, wait a minute, my early, it was 745. And I'm like, why are we watching Jeopardy? Which is coming up. So what does that mean? We're springing backwards. It just means that it will get dark earlier. So like a five o'clock in the start. Which. Great. So like, this is where we all can depressed. Yeah. Sorry, I don't know when that's happening probably have some time, but it's already naturally happening as you can tell like Yes, and of course it's for the farmers it's getting darker earlier. We respect them always always him forever They keep this country moving 1000% moving so if I have to like you know struggle with my mental health for the farms
Then I'll do it because that's what it takes to be an American mm-hmm. Absolutely So we have this we got manicures. That's right. We have the same exact nail color. We're wearing the same exact sweater Thankfully, we're wearing different pants and shoes. Yeah, I went for like a chocolate brown pant when you went for black Yeah, so we're so different like that's what They do they do and because I went with chocolate brown I'm wearing like a brown Louis Vuitton sandals So just I'm not bending down to pick up my shoe, but just trust that they're like sick Such a plight of being a petite woman and of course I mean vertically not horizontally Is every pair of pants you only you have to get hammed like that's insane. I know Shout out to the companies that do petite like top shop was always doing like petite jeans Abokronbe doesn't really well, but I'm wearing these a cooler. It's a pants. They're pulling on the ground Yeah, I have a pile of pants in my closet and I'm really expected to tailor a pair of pants from a ritzia like But what's crazy is like moving through sizes the way that I am on both ends of the spectrum like I have so many pairs every time I get a new pair of pants like every month. Yeah
It's not supposed to be like that. No, and I just feel like going to the tailor is reserved for like when I get invited to the Met Gala Like going to the tailor's not like an everyday thing No, getting your clothes tailored your everyday clothes tailored like isn't a level It's extremely indulgent in my opinion no, but I think it's like this this a small thing that makes a huge difference That's what it was used as hand fashion, please George Stephanopolis Cotsiopolis was always saying the tailoring on here is impeccable. Yeah, what happened to him? I think he's still styling Not falling you think is he caught the apple is there Stephanopolis? There's two different ones Is like a newsman. I got a manicure next to him in the city one time. I remember it was like kind of amazing I couldn't believe he was getting manicure like a public another was ending one with my getting manicure like No, like a nice like you know touch up like I like men like when you have gross hands like it's gross But it was just I want you to have nice hands, but I don't want to witness you getting the process of the nice hands coming to life They should do it at the barber. Yes I think a lot of people do get there now. It's not at the bar. Okay good because I don't want to witness it and don't come into like
the nice base agreed agree to take up a chair and put your foot It's that's true don't bring your fungus into our like our foot baths into our sacred place That's true, but he didn't get a panic. You're he just got as far as I know And I was like is it George cut the apple is Stephanopolis, but George Katsiopolis was on fashion police and he was there because he was like a celebrity stylist What happened to him? You say so? Yeah, like I would say like they need to bring back fashion police, but they actually really don't people can't handle No, it's no no because what they would bring back would be a pile of direct It would be very sensitive like you can't say you don't like someone's dress No, no, it would not be good if they wanted to bring it back in its original form like hot tape resurrect Joan from the dead That would be amazing, but no one's gonna do that. No, anyone do that right and yeah Joan was one of one Yeah, where people like wanted to be roasted by her and sort of uncancellable I feel that perhaps we dive in just because like I want to talk about dancing with the stars
Okay, if you say something else you want to chat about you say so no no no We can get into the source of anything else comes up, you know, I'll find my way of course We all free to speak my truth And we always do and that's what they show is all about like a safe space to speak your truth a safe space today I've heard from the stories, you know, that's how are the stories dreadful Because you said yesterday and they were like not bad and they weren't so the I would say these are like like the sort of day Where I didn't know which ones number one oh? That's like kind of a really bad indicator of oh, I want to say something It's just like someone I've noticed being in Florida for three days The ins and I like I love ins card. I'm their number one chopper. I do it all the time in the city It's so different here like I feel that the shoppers take so much care with my order like I Feel that they really like want me to be happy, you know I've done like I'm like embarrassing like three orders since I've gotten here I've won going right now and like they're literally sending me so many pictures like they don't have this But they have this and in New York like you get what you get and you don't get upset And it's more speaks like the mentality of New Yorkers
They're like seriously go fuck yourself your order and groceries from an app like you'll get what you get in in They literally will not move in the store until you answer them like so thoughtful here really Oh, wow, I guess I'm just used to it But I expect like from my ins to car because that's been my experience I didn't know other people had it so negative. Yeah, and then like I met my shopper guest We're like in in the city like You guys get your things It's kind of like a faceless name. It is but I was like chatting with him and that also means like there's no accountability Like you don't have to look in the eye and tell them that you got them the wrong yogurt and no human Q-nexion Um, and I think it really like I felt so inclined to go into the app and I increased my tip because it's just like such a lovely man like Just Connecting with me. It's all that human connection at Instacart. It really is and I think that is a part of like small town living a thousand percent I'm definitely feeling the benefits of small town living over here with my car. Oh Like I love it. Oh my car. She leaves the big city. She falls in love with her Instacart driver. I love it. I love it I'm so glad. Yeah, that's sweet act. Yeah, it's like something I've noticed there. I like I feel
Like I feel like whatever I'm giving them is not enough like I'm they're just like they're so they care about me so much That's really how I feel and you feel like you're getting all your items exactly as you wanted and if I'm not I know about it Like sometimes in New York you ordered and scart and you're like oh, this is someone else's order But it's like no, they just kind of like took liberty sometimes and I even tell you that they're doing your placements I'm telling you let me just chat with because I have like kind of an order going in right now with my friend Oh, he's headed. Okay, we're all good once I place the order. I don't check the app again So that's your mistake. No, I don't have notifications on for the Instacart like and that so whatever will be will you kind of like a nightmare Customer but I'm also like but I didn't do complain if I didn't get right right so that he tried to chat to me right He tried to chat to you. He tried to believe her shot Yeah, no one think about me. I'm very open to being pulled for shots because I like want when I want I'm very specific I don't even have an Instacart notifications on so I wouldn't even know Unless I'm like drilled in being like I need this sour cream and this one specific right that I'm very specific like you Can't just get me like yogurt like I need the one yogurt that I will eat so I'm kind of have to be glued to my phone
And that's where like my whole mission to become more mysterious gets a little dicey because I'm like chatting with my Instacart chopper Oh, stay long. Yeah, so to get what you need everything What did you need food snacks? I got chocolate ever pretzels. Oh, yeah, thanks for food of course Because it's never really about me. It's just about him You know things just to survive Yeah, I'm hungry. Do you have breakfast? I did have breakfast, but I feel that that doesn't have a bearing on the level of hunger like Because like yesterday we sat down for lunch and we were so hungry and we were like this the first movie in all day like I did have like a breakfast and a half But I feel that that's not an indicator of how hungry I was you know, yeah, you don't need an excuse I'm just wondering like what you had for I had a bagel breakfast. Yeah, yeah, it was okay Okay, yeah, we're not known for our bagels. You're not but you are known for your Instacart choppers You can't have it all you can't Without further a do-do-do-do-do it is time for the fast-sized stories that yet it do need to know and the fast-fived stories
You need to are brought to you by fashion pass We have been fashion past girlies for years in case you don't remember it is a clothing rental service that actually has cute clothes It's a very groundbreaking service If you know other clothing rental services you know it can be so hard to find either clothes that are in stock or clothes that aren't Fugley With fashion past you will not have that problem the clothes come in like new condition It feels like you're shopping on your favorite retail site.

It's two shipments of five items each You could swap out your picks and you're not stuck with the same items all month long So you don't have to basically plan your life a month in advance because we're just not doing that So it's literally $12.50 in item if you do the math Which is really crazy not to mention it's also just a better deal than any other rental service out there and in my opinion

We love them We use a lot of their products and I think if you are into Supplements or fear into vitamins or prenatals then you know about the folic acid problem which is a cheap synthetic form of folic acid that most drugstore prenatals use the one type of cheap even cardboard coge would not recommend
Your body basically has to convert that folic acid to folate before it can actually use it and a lot of people are born with this thing called that Mother F for mth fr mother fr variant like 60% of women that conversion basically doesn't happen So you could be taking a prenatal every single day and not beginning the folate that you need and folate is so important Especially in pregnancy So parallel use uses methyl folate which is an already active form of folate. There's no conversion required There's no gene roulette. It's just the form your body can use so literally 100% of people can you can take it Why it matters is because folate is one of the most talked about nutrients and pregnancy for a reason It's really foundational for early development. It's not like a nice to have a great thing. It's really like a fundamental thing that you need And parallel is Helping everyone it was also just a brand that's engineered by an OBGYN They have a panel of maternal fetal medicine doctors. It's the exact type of gap that they built the brand to close So all of their products for women are just like a really pargy jacket Tigs their electrolytes. I take their prenatals. It's really a great brand And their prenatals actually build by trimester which I like so if you're pregnant trying or postpartum check out parallel

Oh as the Cleveland boys. I saw that Kyle you check was on the weeks episode I thought that's what you're talking about Oh On this week's episode however Travis and Jason Discuss the new track on their episode they said Travis said Cleveland is rocking right now. She's such a dad He said shout out to Tate for making that song just giving the city a little more life Then Jason shared that he and Kylie have been rocking out around the house to the track He said that song is incredible Kylie and I have been listening to it so much. There's just something about it that makes you feel real good
It's a great song. Well that must be nice for Kylie and Jason to be able to listen to a song about Travis. That's not about his penis. I Imagine they couldn't rock out around the house to wood. So this is great for them in the family. I She did she like made that her Instagram bio and like yeah like a Japanese like a red Yeah, making fun of like basically calling just a small huge. Oh, I think she's Flying it huge. That's just calling it small. Oh I that joke went over my head, but okay, right what kind of Is that still her bio? Definitely not because what kind of tree did Taylor described Travis's penis as I really can't see Let's get to the bottom. Oh big fan of Japanese maples. Yeah, I feel like a Japanese maple is really small I don't think so Japanese maple tree. Let's see. It's like a bonsai. Oh Well, I'm seeing mixed signals like in terms of the picture And I think they're big is a small slow growing ornamental
Funny funny birds delicate handshape leaves and brilliant seasonal colors that is funny and it's still her bio I like that that is funny, but so random yeah That okay, I'm glad like that's really funny. So they did get it on the on the wood joke on but I don't think that they could like stream it You know as much as their hearts desire. Yeah, but Cleveland is cute It must be fun to be like from such a random place like Cleveland like that's random It's just not like you know New York, I like to talk about it And like now there's like a Taylor Swift song about it like if and they're so proud of where they're from It was exciting. I do feel like Cleveland people are happy people as I agree You know, we discuss in Liz lemon like yes, right? Yes, when you're having a Cleveland day, I'm having Cleveland day like lemon everyone wants to get moved to Cleveland But then in the episode where lemon actually does move to Cleveland It's not all it's cracked up to be because she kind of yearns to be like a miserable New Yorker Which I totally relate to yeah, yeah, Cleveland has a lot of lore all's to say I've been to Cleveland Have I in my mind I have in my dreams?
Yeah, but I actually have in the real world which is cool and what did you find? So I was in Columbus, Ohio And I think I was also in Cleveland. Yeah, I found it to be extremely charming the land of the cleave Yeah, I did a couple of shows and I remember thinking it's a nice place you could live there I pretty much liked everywhere that I went yeah, it's not like I went somewhere like literally hated it. Let me think up I don't want to start with you people Oh, I did not enjoy my time in the Pacific Northwest. Thank you so much actually I did like Seattle like I see I Didn't want to live there. Oh, I don't want to live there But I saw like why it has like lore and and hype and it was cool like yeah Portland Was definitely the only place I went to were not only did I not want to live there I never wanted to return and I know that we have listeners in Portland and that must be difficult for you to hear But I do feel that I do feel that people from Portland specifically people who listen to the show like they know
They know that they're in trouble and I ended up near the what's what was it called the Chaz? Yeah, or was it chop? No, I know I didn't in a Z because it was something something zone Chaz there was two zones out in the piano You at one point. Yeah, it's like a very politically active climate and I think a lot of I think a lot of the Yeah, what it is And I think a lot of people who like live there are like really passionate about random not random like different And so when I was there they were kind of there was a trend of people it was like Like anti-authority establishment so they sort of like moved on to the streets and Created these like lawlessness zones. So you just say I like really got out of there as quickly as I could But yeah, they wanted me to be their mayor in the Chaz and I said guys I can't obviously I I like the establishment Well, I have my problems with it of course, but you want to live within the frame, but I like the rules Yeah, I like the framework exactly. I'm sort of like a framework type of gal. That's where we
Sort of differed and you're said peacefully, but that is the only place I went and didn't like okay. Yeah That's how I remember it. No, you're right. Thank you for reminding me. I can't believe I went to Portland like that's insane. That's insane And it was like it was a long trip because I did Portland Seattle and I did a leg. I did a leg Yeah, and so I was not home for a really long time And it started in Portland. I went Portland Seattle Vancouver started port. I'm sorry. I also started in LA. That's where The leg yeah, the leg and then are there places in California? I can't remember definitely it's a big stage. I remember being I did say we're just go and San Diego, but I think I might have a separate trip Got it. Yeah Um, I'll say the Cleveland's Dites are liking Cleveland. Well, that's good because it's not as pretty much like for you Oh, you guys have an update like Babylon is my favorite song maybe ever. Yeah, I know I think I listened to it in the car Seven times yesterday me too and then this morning I listened like I'm trying not to listen to it on repeat one because I don't want to hate it Yeah, but I love it
I love it. It got me on like a Taylor Swift Vault track kick this morning I did all of 1989, which is seriously like some of the best music ever. I do that all the time It's insane and then I had forgotten about the Vault track that like Is so beautiful When when Emma falls in love is that what it's called? Yeah about Emma Stone like that song is so Somebody ever wrote a song like that about me I would die I feel like Emma Stone like doesn't talk about it enough because if that were me like I would not stop talking about it Yeah, I don't even know if I know that one I met a boy with eyes like a man turns out the world fits right in the palm of his hand It's out Andrew Garfield in her which like obviously Maybe that's why she doesn't talk about it as much as I would because it's like this heartbreak But it's a sweetest song. It's like literally the nicest things you could say about someone all in a song That's so nice. Yeah, I listened to a little ttpd after because I was just trying to like Get the vibe. Mm-hmm. Fabulous. Very ttpd And I do feel like it sounds so familiar I'm trying to like figure out which song that they all sound really familiar. Yes, like all your favorite artists have a sound
You know, it's all the Eagles just noise the same absolutely. Oh John Mayer songs are like sounding the same John Mayer at the sphere God Mayor at the same. We're talking about it. We're talking about it like we kind of want to go to Las Vegas I know I love Vegas. I've been planning scenes like within the family Olivia was like extremely down your husband was so down He's been wanting to see the Wizard of Oz at the sphere. So I'm like okay. I'll go with you to that if you come with me Um, like I think unfortunately I'm always down. Yeah, I was like I say with a bag packed for Vegas But it's like it's gonna be a big thing like I think we all kind of need to start planning now like I really want to go Even though I feel like I'm gonna get dizzy in the sphere Me for sure. Yeah, I don't think you know I won't I'll babysit. Yeah, okay fine. Yeah. Yeah. No, that's perfect I don't want to go to the sphere. I want to go to Vegas. Yeah, right. Okay Viva Las Vegas Viva Las Vegas Vegas would be like a good theme for dancing with the stars like me Better than Yacht Rock. I also think last night's episode was boring because like the music was not compelling I knew most of the songs but Yacht Rock is supposed to be like background music like it was not
Viby it wasn't hyping me up at all put a pin in it I'm not responding to those charges Because it's only just waiting the first two and I have it this because like this is supposed to be an equal part Is it a partnership? How about next week we try it first number one. Yeah, okay Someone will remind us next week our next story very pretty premiered in New York last night and halfway pregnant on the carpet Dakota Johnson and More I really feel bad for an halfway like I know she's doing this all by choice But like I really want her to lay down. Yeah, it's getting to a point You know, she's gonna meet up with her which one someone was like how are you okay? Like you and she was like I'm completely fine like there are a lot of pregnant women who like don't get their nails done in their hotel In this morning that the studio paid for she was like I'm completely fine stop worrying about me and I was like oh, okay We're about the pregnant traffic cops. Yeah, exactly So that's exactly what she was saying the pregnant girl got she did not want one ounce of like but even though like I just still feel for her like I know she's tired Mostly because obviously like being a traffic cop or like it's not a physically laborious job that she does
But like those dresses the force. It's the undergarments the shoes and nobody feels sorry for you correct Because you're like an actress. Yeah, but I think if she didn't want to go like she doesn't have to go to everything So I feel like she does have to go to the parody premiere Hmm she's and halfway Yeah, how far along you think she is she looks full-term. Yeah, I think it's gonna be a few weeks. I think so She looks great. She's She does and what's great? She's like in this movie her and Dakota are twins right that's right point But like now Dakota's tailors twin. Yeah, I know you're in halfway and Taylor twins. No I know I know I know Dakota has a lot of twins. Maybe she's the chameleon I think that I'm like so ripe to see Verity one because I read the book and loved it But she like I sort of remember like the framework of the book I know there's like a big twist at the end details But like I don't really remember like is she awake like I don't remember 100% is Dakota Johnson like going crazy I don't know so I'm sat for the for the
Cinematic premiere. Yeah, and I do think it will be like Gone girl When the book was so I'm the book was so amazing no in terms of the book was so amazing like broke records everything Verity is like literally the biggest book ever and then the movie was amazing and awards and everything and I think that could happen here Yeah Dakota Johnson like does have like a bad picker for films like I would say that not every movie she chooses is guaranteed to be a good one And half the way though like pretty much does guaranteed that no flops no flops So I can't really speak to like Josh Hartnitz Discography because I've only seen Pearl Harbor and that was like actually 30 years ago But it's a good one it great one I feel confident because of an halfway but I'm a little doubtful of like Madame Webb remember that Okay, but for every Madame Webb there's how to be single you love that movie Fucking love that movie and that's like why I know and like Dakota Johnson because I never saw 50 shades and 50 shades is a good Objectively is a script you say yes to every time they just did a bad job because they hated each other and it was like not
Shipworthy for the biggest romance ever. Yeah, and it was supposed to be someone else right not him Charlie Hunnam Yeah, I think they were both discussed. Well, it is I hate to you know go down my rabbit hole But it is really crazy that Dakota Johnson got that role never acted today in her life and nobody ever heard of her to like mega star parents gets The big it didn't end up being like what Twilight was but it was supposed to be like this enormous It was pretty successful, but it was supposed to be this like it was culture shift But for some reason like it just doesn't stick well e-movie we love they are paying their bills They love that movie. It is always on eat any like say they love it and it was just cheap rice like 1000 percent Any like clip I've seen of it. It's because it was on e-movie's we love Yeah, okay next story We actually are talking about this again because new details have emerged I've been sent this 1000 times. I have been sent this send this to Jackie So I just so you guys know I've seen this Dove Cameron's wedding was officiated by Kenny Ortega who is the greatest director of our time and the director of descendants
And obviously a close personal friend and I would say mentor of doves and I know you sort of historically dislike when people have like non Religious figures are non like authority figures non serious figures Celebrities I know you don't like when Adam Sandler to Taylor's wedding. This is like a pet peeve of yours. Yes, so How do you sort of grapple with the pet peeve and your two favorite people? I would say that Kenny Ortega is a religious figure And an authority figure and he falls into like the few Celebrities that I will accept as a wedding aficion who else and he co-in. Yeah Chris Harrison. There's a Chris Jenner I thought I'm thinking about Chris Jenner, but it's too shikky and like let her just have a cocktail and sit in she doesn't Want to appreciate your wanting. Yeah, I was in so I would say there are a couple like almost host like people yeah Who they host and that's their job and so it doesn't bother me when they officiate a wedding And I will put Kenny Ortega in that category because he's like a serious professional and I think I don't know much about their relationship
But I would say he's probably like what took a paternal role in her life like as this young girl on the Disney Channel Yes, and of course when you think of the Disney Channel and like child actors you think it is worse And it's so nice to see that of everyone in the world That she chose him that even if she might have a complicate should complicate a relationship with her in his past yeah She loves Kenny Yeah, I'm gonna even give because we give Kenny a lot of credit right like for creating actually like some of the most amazing What the art in our time and what we don't give him enough credit for because like we shouldn't credit people for just like not being pedophiles It's like not a singular allegation. Yeah, not a toxic workplace not an inappropriate touch um And I hate to you know pat someone on the back from not being like a criminal pedophile But in this day and age huge win to be like a huge figure in kids He's basically like what Dan Schreider was Nicolodeum in children's entertainment and to not have like a singular sort of Mark against you and I'll say beyond that not even nothing nothing against him on every movie that he's worked on and every project
That's not really where we've heard Yeah, it's not even like there's allegations around Yeah, he doesn't hire bad people yeah as far as we know and everything that we've heard like high school musical We've not heard bad things about descendants have not heard dirty dancing dirty dancing I think there's a couple other things people are always sending me that he Directed it's that time of year where we pull up Kenny or Tegas IMDB to see what else besides high school musical He has done I think he did um like Michael Jackson's tour Okay, like that's not really where he knows I know what that's where the like goes again. It's like what we just said Oh That is really true Jackie, but you know what I just don't want to like go down that path. Hocus Pocus Distent and you are saying oh your favorite show my crazy ex girlfriend He directed it one episode. I like who remembers bun heads. I remember it. I didn't watch it. She to girls Which she to girls she to sister And Montana best of both worlds concert. Oh my god. He also directed 12 episodes of Gilmore girls
Ally Mcbeale like where is his lifetime achievement award? He definitely has a star in the Hollywood walk of fame, right? He better rocky horror picture show There's a lot of Kenny Rogers and Dali Parton like specials made for TV He's like literally the him and Jane lunch should get married the hardest working man and woman in Hollywood Yeah, and to know that like all's well and and dove is so like alt now So like and Kenny's kind of corny yeah and that she still chose him for mainstream king our mainstream Mane skin king. What do you think the main skin guy and Kenny like out to chatting about? I think the love of music. It's true. It's sort of a universe language And you know what Eurovision is very Kenny coded 1000 percent so it's maybe like main skin's aesthetic like within your vision wasn't 1000 percent you but you still went on Eurovision. It's true Like it's just like dove is descendants you are and maybe they that connects them like oh we have this like corny thing in our past right But it was a beautiful wedding it was So it's great and I just I thought that was really beautiful and you can mark me
As having known now knowing that can't be cheated and I've been meaning to bring this up because like a lot of people want to get to you Through me especially like people because you know I don't know if I mentioned this yesterday 400,000 followers on tiktok And so they'll like tag me send this to Jackie These new stuff on tiktok I'm sorry that's happened and the thing is it's like I've probably already shown it to her and to like I'm just not doing that. I'm like very lazy so I feel that That Jackie's that's why I'm saying like I'm too accessible. I'm too reachable. I Need you guys to start just like send me that shit shriek shriek. Yeah, but don't like send me a link to a tiktok Because the link doesn't populate in Instagram and then you just there's no good way to send And you just send me a bunch of letters. There's no way to send someone to tiktok who's not like in the app So I understand like why people are doing and you must it's my phone was blowing up last night I was like oh, I'm going viral. Let's go everyone's probably talking about our beautiful ones. Can I am Send this to Jackie girl. I already did like yeah, and I've seen it on reels. Yeah If it's on tiktok, it's probably on reels
So find it there and send it to me or it will be in like in due time That's it reels is keeping up these days. I would say there's a few days delay It used to be like actual weeks. Well, I don't even know what your like What are you talking about days delay like viral videos? Yeah Like somebody's you'll send me like a funny like you know mom mom hood Yeah, and it's like I did see it a few days ago. Okay, fair But it's also not fair because I see everything Ben shows in a video. I'm like I've seen it like I am Disgusting brain rot like Ben every time sometimes I'll just say I've seen it because I don't want to watch whatever videos She's showing me but like for the most part I have seen it and he looks at me. He's like you're crazy Like how have you seen that he's like it's only an hour old. I'm like I saw it an hour ago. That's funny. Yeah I'm like a garbage receptacle for content, but maybe that should be part of your like less available My yeah campaign to be less available. It would just be more helpful like if I was genuinely less available You know, but I'm not yeah, I'm just always available Ready billing enable. I'm willing and able
There goes my voice again. I Hear a lot of like a lot of people explaining to me like why your singing voice becomes bad One like your lungs are compressed just do all the things going on in your body two of course is like a hormone That comes for your singing voice. It's the same way like my laughing voice changes. Yeah Just dealing with a lot. Yeah. Good thing. It's not you're a trade. Imagine you're like on a tour. Yeah, and actually Now's the perfect time to bring up Kelly Clarkson singing piece by piece on American Idol 9 months pregnant Very impressive that she was able to do that. Mm-hmm Are you ready for our fourth story? Mm-hmm Mauricio Yomanski reveals he's considering running for mayor of Los Angeles as an independent Okay, Mauricio Yomanski Joined what was he on alive with Kelly and Mark and said I am considering interesting get for him like Who was Mauricio Yomanski to Kelly Rippa? He's just does a little bit of everything. He's on special forces. Oh, that's why okay Thank you. So then he's on Kelly and Mark and said I'm considering running for mayor of Los Angeles
He says he's a registered independent hopes to bring businesses back to LA He said we need to take care of our people. There's so many things to do in LA It's one of the greatest cities in the world without question. It's a huge metropolis and we need to take care of it We need to take care of crime. We need to take care of homelessness We need to do all that stuff, but we need to bring business back And I think if we're able to bring business back we're able to you know do the rest has he been here for the last year The thing is is obviously Mauricio Yomanski you're extremely hot and Jewish you have my vote But I feel that you're not really paying attention because many have come and gone to try and do exactly what you said Business I think the people in LA like like the homelessness. They like the crime like the status quo They like their people like Karen Baxter and so tried to save them Rick Karusom He spent 40 million of his own dollars Mauricio don't do this Like seriously don't bother because then like you then you just become like a political figure You're very divisive either way like people love you and hate you and it's like you come from a franchise We're like even though you haven't even behaved well like people love you Like why would you give up that sort of adoration to get into politics just to lose just to be honest about that
Like don't waste your money. You're not going to win. Yeah, don't worry But nobody could have run a better campaign than Spencer Pratt I mean, he had a lot of like wind behind him. He went on Joe Rogan like no, but not like people are saying the way he ran his campaign like we'll actually change the way uh Political campaigns are run like from like with AI and everything and like he had everything at his back He had so many like endorsements from people across the aisle and really came at it from like just a A bipartisan yeah point of view a very like um earnest play if you will I really don't know what could have been done Better than the way that he did it so and Rick Karusom as well is also like a huge figure One of the pal troendor's like lots of people like a lot of celebrities I saw celebrities both who are known to be like Democrats and Republicans who it's like not even about that Why would you waste your time in your money doing this? It's true And I also feel that Marie-Cio actually has like a lot of opportunity outside of being like a very successful real estate Moa, which she is he has that Netflix show. He does a little bit of housewives. He's now on Freshly for instance. It's like why is that not enough and he has a huge business huge family too. Yeah
No, but sink your money into this. Yeah, like Bad idea. I feel like he's like soft-launching it like do not come Do not come yeah He said if I do it, it have to be for the next race and start prepping for it and start prepping my business for it Start prepping my life for it and then you run seriously don't do not like we just I think I've seen this film before It's true, and I didn't like the ending. It's true Like and I've given up even though like outside of that like Marie when we talk about like celebrities who go into politics like Yeah, why not Marie-Cio Mansky like businessman to the stars Yeah, but no, another city. Yeah, try me try Portland Try Portland. He would see how you man ski we're having a What's the word protest? No, no like a When you like have a campaign like rally Yeah, running a campaign fundraising rally event for Marie-Cio Mansky at the Chaz in Portland.

You're welcome Our fifth and final story dancing with the stars recap last night was yacht rock night bad theme Um, it was all like presented by a sponsor. Oh, what's with the mocktails yet? There was like a sponsor floating around the episode So I feel like it was like meant to tie in this sponsor, but it should have been like carnival cruising Yeah, but I just feel like the level of like sponsorship integrations is like Really not premium do you know? I mean this is like one of the most watch shows on TV like even the Paris baguette stuff It just feels so branded like and Julian like shoving a cocktail and everyone's face like it was just weird Yeah, I don't know what the mocktails were about There I don't want to drink something blue. No, especially they're all like out of breath. Yeah, right sweating Jason is blue pure a cell yeah, I'm good Um, so I didn't like the theme and I felt like I was kind of bored by the episode because of the music like
No pussy poppers, you know, but I like to I like I don't know I don't like yacht rock, but like I don't want to join No, I don't mind it. I think I kind of minded it. Yeah, that's a point of the background She's like pleasant music you sort of know the tune everyone we're on a yacht and we're rocking out for me It was like hard for anyone to have like a big moment because like there wasn't like big music Mm-hmm. Well, let's get into the dances first. We had Amber Glenn with Pasha Pashkhov they Did really well and they got a 24 and they just like do nothing for me. I guess she like broke his nose Oh, that was crazy that happened sometimes where like you injure the pro and like seriously name more us feeling And I just feel like he was really mad I could divide like he's not there You could tell when like I feel like Brit and Taylor um, Hanson like really loved each other. They had like a real friendship connection I feel like Pasha and Amber are like just partners. Yeah, like that's it. I don't think they hate each other No, I don't think they have a singular Q-nextion great friendship. Yeah, so when he got his nose broke by her He was like okay, I felt so bad. It was so awkward. I felt like I wasn't even there and I felt so awkward I was like I'd rather like break my own nose than
Yeah, I have to do that. I feel so bad now I loop her in with like Harry Shem Jr. and Jenna to want about like people who were doing so good and make me feel nothing Actually, it's boring. I don't say who somebody from that group actually really impressed me last night So we'll talk about that shortly, but Amber Glenn like great. You did an amazing job. I don't care Next Julia styles with Ezra Sosa they did a Salsa. I thought she was amazing. Yeah, well she had a lot to prove yeah because she had like a bad week last week And fighting an injury And she did really good. Yeah, what's also interesting to me I was looking at up so I was saying how like Julia styles a similar to Tatiana Lee how they're like, you know former TV stars who are now in their 40s and Jenna to one is the same age as them and she's also like a former You know iconic movie that's now like in her 40s dancing It's actually interesting that they cast three women who are essentially like the same archetype That's what I'm saying. I think you're gonna say like three women in their 40s because like once you turn 40 and Hollywood There's no jobs for you and that's what I was saying about like inclusivity on the show like it's not corny It's not performative like yeah, there's three women in their 40s like how many women in their 40s their ski ammo and there's Ezra like how many people
Can say that yeah How many TV shows can say that yeah, and it's not like being shoved down your face like we're being inclusive like no You just are you know, I had to look up their agent. Yeah, right. Yeah, why do they keep introducing Jenna Duanis to starve the rookie like No, but that is that's their show and they're promoting the rookie. Yes, cuz they keep saying like Harry Shum star of Grayson I mean like we know Grayson out of me star of the rookie. I'm like the rookie. They want to give more girls like what is it? They want us talking about the rookie. So there you go now they're gonna keep saying it Okay, I got the toes talking about the rookie. Okay, then we have Guillermo and Whitney They did their fatt truck. They scored a 15. Mm-hmm Guillermo made a declaration at the end that he's dancing for the people Which I appreciated because like I'm really they can skip I know they're always short for time like you can skip the judges criteria of Guillermo I'm not interested because it's not about the technicality and maybe seeing people say that's not there We are all working within like their limits And I think for like what he's capable of he's doing an amazing job and his like leaning so much on his personality um I could not love him anymore. I texted Guillermo to 2153 before he even danced. Oh, I wait till they dance, you know
But I texted ten times I want him to win the Mariborl like I want him to be in the finals And it's so nice because I feel like up until Andy Richter It's like if you got like the old slow dude like the stinks no like you knew your season was going to be Yeah, and you're like it's just a bummer But like these two guys have really turned that on their heads where it's like it's actually an advantage It's an opportunity. Yeah, and they're like getting by and doing less and it's like You used to just be written off immediately. It's true. It's true like someone to contend with yeah If given the right pro who like really showcases and the person is down to like shot People really like to Andy's packages like his personality was so fun like nobody knew him before nobody knew him before at least like Jimmy Kimmel The ABC people like they know Guillermo It is an opportunity for a pro to like do something with the person So I feel like it also really speaks like Whitney and Emma. Yeah for like the tic tocks and everything No, and it's like just because you have like the older slow man cast man or woman like it could actually be an advantage. Yes, it can. It's exciting
It is then we have Tatiana Ali and Jan Rovnik They did amazing. They didn't like I watch a completely different person Well, first of all she's like having that transformation. She looks insane. It's only three weeks. She literally is so toned One, two it was so amazing. I feel like they're best friends like kind of unlikely duo, you know I watch all of their social media like they have the best time together. She's so good I feel like she's the person who was like a decent dancer and she is the definition of this show She is getting better every week. I feel like by the end if she continues to like Be saved she'll have like a major moment like a dance. I love her Yeah, and every time in her packages she just like keeps opening up and being honest like that's what I'm looking for Yeah, I like I not her being my favorite. I couldn't even I might not even even been to be able to place her before the show was announced It really is sort of an eating plan. Feel like just because you're the most famous true The most physically fit or the best dancer like it's so many other factors and someone that I didn't even know before Who's not the best dancer there is my favorite. I love her. Yeah Then Harry Shum Jr. with Jenna Johnson. They performed a jive with hats and they got a 24
See you're making my dream come true They acknowledged a little bit that they're getting hate she said something to the effect of he she feels like he's being penalized because He is already a dancer and I don't know if that's she saying that like towards the judges or the audience But like they are very much aided by the audience Um, and it's not because you're a dancer because now I want it. I want I want a Jordan Fisher. I'm looking for that I want some good dancing. I don't like watching you dance. Yeah. I'm so unmoved by everything they do his packages bore me to tears Even he brought Kurt Hummel to the to the Ballroom and like I barely moved, you know, I don't know what it is about them because there's a lot of politics within The real inner circle of janssen with the stars about like Jenna and val being like favorites and all the other Pros hating them like I don't care about any of that. That's not why I feel the way that I feel like I'm just bored Yeah, oh, I don't yeah, I'm not in I'm a fan of the answer with the stars But I'm not in like pro no, I guess like Brit has always said that like her dream partner is Harry Shum Jr
Yeah, but then people clocked this that when they were eliminated last night, Julie and thankfully said like that Taylor requested Brit as his partner and that's why they were partnered together. So maybe Brit had always wanted Harry, but they put him right Brits. So it wasn't a snub or anything like yeah, and you know, I'm glad Brit didn't get Harry because like everyone's hating Harry so she doesn't eat hate but she's off the show. Yeah, which we'll talk about Then we have Taylor Hanson and Brits Stewart. So I saw people like so upset about this like in disbelief when it was like clear To me that he was the one going home. He not only like he just wasn't getting better And like somebody has to go home Do you know what I mean? And I feel like of the people who might have been in contention to go home The people who have been consistently in the bottom like everybody kind of stepped their pussy's up last night except for him Yeah, I feel like there are a couple people who are on the edge of going home And it's just a matter of like in which order yes based on scores and he was one of them He's one of them. I think Jackson Olson is one of them. It kills me to say I think Tyler Cameron is one of them No, not my king. He did so good last night. I love him. I know I thought he did great
He didn't get good scores and yeah, but I thought his scores were so unfair The scores were insane. I thought he did great. He had like a very low. They didn't put him in the bottom Which was I think like a way for him which was shocking though because he was like in the bottle I thought he was in the bottom last week his scores were worse this week And then they let him like go second this scoring was off last night because Tyler got like criminally low scores And so did Tatiana like she should have gotten eights like Amber She got sevens. I don't think she should have gotten eight. I do. I don't think she should have gotten eight And I don't think there was anything wrong with her score But I feel like she was completely safe. She had a score. Yeah, yeah, the rest of them Then Moira and Mark oh, she was great. I did a quick step. They got a 22. She's amazing She's a joy to watch and I feel like by the end we can maybe have a Jordan Fisher moment Yeah, she's a joy to watch. It's her package is too. She's so funny. She's an amazing personality She's so bubbly and smiley like she's She's made for this and her and Mark are best friends like I just love their packages. I love everything they do Yeah, it's really she's a great fund answering. I feel like she has a style of her own. Yes, you know, I agree She's like a little fairy floating on the dance floor. Yeah, it's really cute Then Sierra Miller and Brandon Armstrong. They performed a cha cha and they scored an 18. I don't really remember
I feel like her scores were low. She was karma brown. Oh, right. Right. Right. Right. That's funny like for the fans I feel like I was also thinking that I wish they had done a better job explaining karma brown It was very inner circle and it's like ABC people like this is such a big show bravo's like low key not small But it's niche and so I wish that they had explained like the lore a little bit better because it's really funny And it was just like what is this who's karma? For those of us who know like it was great. Happy to see a great It was great. It was great. And I think Sierra loves being her and like a fun side of her I was gonna say she definitely like came out of her shell. She was like fun and confident and the dance like wasn't There was room for improvement their scores weren't amazing. Yeah, but I feel like it was a good night for them in the sense that they weren't in the bottom And no one was worried about them going home and she's definitely improving But I feel that like of the people that are improving some people are just making like bigger leaps than her But every week is better than the next was just really all you can ask for yeah That until a certain point and then it starts Yes, yes, so there's still a lot of like people here that are so many contestants that are gonna leave like Jackson also an emis later
Yeah, Jackson also has been like quietly disappointing Yeah, you know, I feel like maybe he had a strong start and he's kind of like getting worse and the packages aren't packaging for me No, no, and it seems like a really nice guy and I'm not Yeah, I think against him. No, we neither. I just thought he would be so much more dazzling like he has so much performance experience I'm dancing and singing included and I'm just like every week. It's like he's staying Yeah And that's not what I thought it was gonna be I thought he really had like potential to go really far They got to turn it around I don't think they will I think that like he's next yeah, I think he's next to Then Connor Wooden Riley Arnold when I watch Connor like I get nervous like this is like I've actually met this person You know he did so good like I was actually so nervous for him especially yeah last week like Well all about improvement. Yeah, his hair is hilarious. He had great like um He has great packages and great interviews like he really isn't I think very endearing to people how like he wants to Like very badly, but he doesn't take it too seriously. I thought he did a really good job I didn't find the dance was like amazing to watch
But it's good enough. Yeah, and hopefully with by the time it needs to be amazing I think he can get there because he's like very dedicated to learning and improving. Yes He's like Jackson to a little bit, but I think he's doing better than Jackson Yeah, except I think he's like naturally uncoordinated whereas like Jackson yeah is not yeah, and he has a music in him Yeah, I think like maybe I had like a bigger hill to climb and he's climbing it like Jackson's like kind of going now like Jackson's Gordon 18 and Connor scored to 20 so Connor is like technically doing better Yeah, cuz I think it's you know Score is based on your particular set of skills, but I would say their abilities are the same based on now what I see I wouldn't I wouldn't say like their backgrounds and like experience like no, I would say that Connor excuse me Jackson has a A leg up you would think but then what how he showed up on day one Versus I thought his day one. I thought Connor's day one excuse me Jackson's day one was like good enough and like we would really sin rods I thought we would like really see improvement with him, but we haven't no whereas that Connor started like pretty like regular
And he's getting better. Yeah Then we have Jen and Duane and Val Schmerkowski So I always say like Jen and Duane is amazing and I don't care I kind of cared last night she was really good. I thought the critique from Carrie on about like doing too much It's like girl. This is dancing with the stars like it was just I was kind of like mean and unnecessary and I thought she was Amazing it was the first time I even like looked at her. I was like oh, yes like play mama I am starting to like pay attention now because of all the hate and stuff so I'm like now I really want to see what it's all about and she obviously is internalized the hate She knows that nobody feels anything when she dances so she told the story about visiting her dad and yeah dancing around to Africa Like I guess it's like how that's a package, you know, it is like a point of connection. Yeah But after we didn't like stir a lot within me But it made me want to like her it made me like want to give her a fair shot. Yeah, and she's dancing her heart out I know Cariann isn't wrong. It's a mean thing today and I like Derek said I do look forward to when they slow it down. It's a little more strong It's a little more elegant and we can like see
It's just like it's very cheerleader like and it's it's not like I'm not connecting to it. Yeah, it was the first time I I Like I wasn't date d.o.a. watching her like I felt something and I was like she's really good Yeah, and maybe she can be the one to give me my Jordan Fisher moment right right But last time was good. It was it was a really good dance, but like it didn't stir anything Yeah, but I think we'll get there and let's just like give her enough time to get there Yes, because we need great dancers on this show you guys sure want to watch shite for two hours It's true and it was like kind of like a lot of shite last night There's a lot of shite and we're like putting a bow on some of the shite I'm just giving this we're like contextualizing it like given like this person is a an actor But like I'm trying to be dazzled and I wasn't dazzled really last night Then Tyler Cameron and Charna Burgess. What did they dance to? We jive to still the one What does that mean? I'm doing but I thought it was adorable. I thought he did great. I thought he loved him I thought he was light on his feet given his size. Oh, yes, the size. That was so unfair
He's huge. I remember the whole thing now. I thought he did great to the footwork I love Tyler Cameron like that's my winner like I really want him to go far He got a 17 which is pretty low. I think that's unfair. They were giving him on fair scores I agree. I think he really did a good job given the fact that like he's this enormous guy And then they pan to of course his lady love his lady love and Hannah Brown And Hannah Brown was obviously there because she's a dancer with the stars alumnus But um that is her ex boyfriend, but like leave Hannah Brown alone. She's happily married Yeah, and I She was in the back on the whole episode and like ex friends Because yeah, I think that they would quarantine Chris. He's engaged. She's married of course I think that like maybe it's a little awkward But for the most part, I think they would consider each other's like friends Yeah, and then Rachel Kirkano was like part of his crew interesting to see that which is like a child Kirkale Cuz her ex is Matt James whose Tyler Cameron's like ex best friend unclear where they stand today But they can't became famous as best friends in this world Matt James is only on the show and we only know
Tyler because of Tyler Yes, so Tyler got her child in the divorce Which is weird. I think so too What's the tea based on vibes like we think Tyler and Matt also hate each other so the enemy of the enemy is my friend You know they both have the common enemy but boys don't hate each other I know but I feel that Matt James and Tyler like hate each other. I don't think they do I'd actually think we would be surprised to find out that they're fine or like no or they like just don't care about each other Like Matt lives in New York now and Tyler lives in Florida and it's like well, you know what live here We'll see does match up in the ballroom. No, he probably won't let's say he probably won't Next and finally we had Ezra fresh with Danielle like Haragash. It's freck by the way. I say different every week I'm letting you know what it is I think she were curious Frech I feel that like the producers are confident in his ability to dance and move forward because he probably got 30 seconds of voting time They dance in the polls close 30 seconds either which is so unfair And that's how you know there's way too many people on the show right now Um, he was great. I feel like again speaks more to yacht rock like I wasn't I feel like last week
I was like jumping out of my seat like I was like it's a good dance I didn't feel so much this without really short. Yes, but he did the Fox shot Which again they explained in his package why it will be difficult for him to do with and I'm loving I'm loving the explanation and then I love when he's like but could I do it like this and she's like yeah And then we see the way that they sort of rework it Rejigger the dance. It's so impressive. It's so impressive for him and you're gonna get my vote every time and I know like Derek Huff When he gives his critiques like it's I feel actually I really relate to it because anytime someone's talking and it's like I can relate I'm like oh yeah that happened to me too. Yeah, and I know he's like I dance the thing. Yeah, right It's like busting out of him like yeah, Amy and I did that too Um, and he didn't bring it up last night and I was really proud of him um, but I I really like I actually I'm not even like coming for dark. I know we have like fake beef like I thought he looked great I loved his ass got and I I was like he can bring it up again because like I would It's relevant. Yes, it's relevant me um, but I'm sure he like is very aware of like not wanting to bring it up
I feel like now and I see him like I just feel like he's like thinking about what we said I don't think so I saw him like dancing By the way net net of that clip like we said good things about him And I was I didn't say anything that I don't want him dancing I said why do just the huffs get it like is there are they different than the other pro Well, do you see Mark's mother Was she Dan? Marliss? Yeah, I saw a backstage video of like mark and is surely ballast I think yeah, yeah, yeah She's like a dance person. I saw a video of them dancing like it looks like the intro I was like did I miss that? Hmm, and then of course Derek Listen, you're not beating me. I'm not getting into a tarot cuff I respect our cuff you guys know like I was joking that joke like went way too far and I'm like you can't beat me into this conversation. No, and you know, I'm a huge fan of the huffs like I'm not even I know it's like we've sort of been like Pitted against one another well not pitted because like I like I did say that thing one time But I feel like people just like misunderstood and I am sorry and like I I relate to Derek Like I can just you know the meme of like the kiddie's trying not to cough in class with like the veins That's him trying not to bring up that he'd one time dance with Amy, you know, yeah
Okay, so those were the dances and then Taylor and Britt went home Which was a little surprising. I think Taylor has like a lot of fans He I think there are a lot of people who could have gone home last night and happened to be them Which is sad because she went home early last season two she was obviously not happy. Okay, so let's talk about the alleged beef between Britt and Guillermo first let's talk about her reaction when they said it was so sad she was like I'm so sorry I'm so sorry. She's like she was gonna cry But then she's really sad and it didn't sound like she was gonna cry But she was very upset and she felt and she kept saying sorry to him But like what did she do nothing? I don't know and I had seen like a montage of all the times she was eliminated And she like always tells her partner sorry, which is like really sad. I know What was that right so then of course you know when it's over the credits roll all the pros and the dancers and like the fans Rush to the stage and hug the people who are leaving and everyone goes in for their hug Guillermo goes in for a hug And she like literally swerves on him So I think either it could have just been like there's a lot going on and she's hugging me and I'm being pulled here And I have to go it could have been totally like explained to me But if you were to look into it like Guillermo I think a lot of people feel that he should go home. He had the lowest scores every week since we started
um And Britt went home instead of him so maybe she's mad at him But like seriously she doesn't seem like an unreasonable crazy person And that isn't unreasonable and crazy thing to feel He's fall that he's older and slower and that people like him and having a hard time like Yeah, I feel like if she's asked about it she'll say oh my god I didn't see him there's so much going on But I don't know if you watch it Yeah, I know what I saw and and I think she just like didn't want to look at him in that moment Because she probably feels like he should be going home. Yeah, but she doesn't seem like that at all like vindictive or like Brat like she just seems like really nice. Yeah, so I don't know but the video is very confusing And upsetting Guillermo sort of like standing there people are like she's not gonna return Why would she be which part would she be mad about because you have to look up every person she stands with like it is Shocking Baron Davis is like the best of them I'm asking a steward. I think actually this guy was the best bridge steward partners partners It's like old person after old person after old person Johnny weird
Oh, okay, well, that's actually like really good mark new hope who's an actor who I just assume is probably older But I've never even heard of him I'm looking it up mark yeah, ancient old man Um, yeah, but you know what? Andy Richter and garrison that's not a death sentence. Yeah Really not Daniel Durant who's now her husband. Oh, yeah, so the actor from Kodad he's hard of hearing so she should be not mad about that right because she met her part her Her husband Adrian Peterson who's a ball player. Let's look him up and then Baron Davis also who is a basketball player But how old is Adrian Peterson? I don't think he's terribly old He but athletes aren't notoriously bad except for of course, I'm on chamber. They have a huge right He's 41 that's not then you're saying like Jenna and the gals. No, I think that like a lot of times like you know when an Alex Earl or a Whitney Leiave gets cast There are certain people who get cast who you know are gonna take you to the finale
And I think that Brits never really gotten one of those and I think that this is just what people in the fandom say like Val gets those people a lot Jenna gets those people a lot mark that gets those people even more like mora and Who was last season Whitney? Agreed. Who would you say of the men in this season are confirmed gonna make it to the finale? That would be Harry Shum. Okay, who is her dream partner? Okay, which is why it felt like such a snub Okay, and that's like literally it who else is on the show? Guillermo Harry Jackson Connor Tyler Cameron. I feel it'll be a female heavy finale and I just think that There's not anyone here that was like oh there for sure gonna make it and like that would be the best for except for Harry Shum But honestly, he's having a terrible season No, and they're like the most hated cup when the cast was announced There was like a lot of hate for it and I didn't really agree and now that we're in it like it's not an amazing cast Yeah, and I think also it is easier with the women like we know who the great women are gonna be like you said Whitney Yeah, you didn't say a man from last season that was gonna go all by maybe a Jordan Fisher type
We didn't know Robert Irwin was gonna be so good and I think that had a lot to do with Whitney Yeah, and also ABC just like wanted him to win of course because he hosts the next pro and right But like this season when you say the people who are gonna be good this season It's a lot of women yeah, yeah, I think with the men like you sometimes get like a clumsy old man I do think I'd have to look at the stats but the List of winners has to lean more women. Yeah Joey grad Zade Joey Was Jenna yeah, but until you would think like Tyler would be right But like he's not I mean we love him, but like he's struggling. Yeah, he is so I feel like there's not Aside from Harry There's not there's not like obvious that she's getting snubbed like every single time because I feel like just the men No, people just like like her a lot and feel very defensive for yeah, and I hope next season I know she does like sign language like when she's telling people to vote like it's so good. Yeah, oh I saw Now I know why I didn't realize that was why yes, and so also I saw you like I you saw Jordan Fisher I saw like one of their dances where you know I you don't even think about how difficult it is to dance with no music if you can't hear
So they did their dance anything like an iconic part of their journey was that like in the middle of the dance Like she cuts the music and they dance silently just like sort of reflects like what he's hearing man I've chill I watched it this morning. It was really beautiful And then the music comes back and like they finished and people were like screaming their heads off And then they got married that's really it's really cute That's what I mean when I say like it's not corny inclusivity like that's so cute like that's real That's real and it's like yeah, I didn't even think about like being a hard to person hard to hearing person trying to choreograph a dance Yeah, I guess you just have to think like one two three one like the whole time like in numbers. Yeah If you were on dancing with the stars who would you want your partner in a b Mark Because I was he gets like favoritism and I need favoritism because I'm in a stank um, I think that like um We would like vibe personality wise. Mm-hmm. You think Yeah, based on traders, but yeah But the thing is everyone liked him on traders like he was kind of like this affable like good personality kind of guy Um, so yeah, I think I would like him. Okay Who else like Not pal not Pasha Ezra oh, I would I would like Ezra. I think we'd have a good time and we make lots of good tiktoks
Jan Rovnik oh, I also would like yon with the Taylor's of course Um Mark Brandon. I don't really know a lot about Brandon. I know his wife because she comes up on my tiktok all the time Yeah, I see um, but I don't know his lore like at all and then vow Yeah, I don't think I want to be a thal too much pressure like And I've ever seen he's the most pressure. No, I've ever seen um like those I'm now on like dwts archival tiktok Max the brother like abusing people like he used to be so fucking crazy like have you seen the one where you like rips his microphone off Like it's really scary. I forget who the um Was it brandy maybe um, and I just feel like that I don't want to be around that kind of energy You think bal is like maximum. I don't think that he is, but I think maybe he has potential to be And there's a lot of like former pros that I now see around like even lindsey Arnold with yes with her uh tiktok Day in life. No, and because I saw the Jordan Fisher. Oh, oh yeah And then I actually just saw an ad that max some in petrion Um, they were dancing and putting on the floor. I hope they were dancing
It is very compelling ad for Tyson and for lotion Um, and it makes me like want to know more about them. Yeah So if you do want to like go in on the lore like there's so much because you know like Emma used to be married. I'm a seating Alan now who got out. Who was his partner? Oh, jada. Yeah I can even Alan. I can be down too. I can even Alan. I feel like Alan someone like we went to camp with He's like some Jewish Alan Bernstein I see him on the screen. I'm like wait, I just saw you at lunch. Yeah literally like he looks like like our cousins like We totally know him. We're definitely related Um actually a lot of the pros are Jewish about the max and um Chmorkoski and Valor Jewish Alan Jewish. Oh, is he which makes dingela by association. Oh love that and then um Okay, so Emma Who's dating Alan? I think she used to be married to Sasha who's actually not a pro this season But he's like that little brunette guy. Yes, I know him. I think he won with Caitlin Bristol. Okay. Yeah I think Emma you see Mary Tim. That's crazy. Why isn't he a pro anymore? Well, so he comes up on my tiktok all the time in the comments are like wish you were a pro wish you were a pro
And he's like liking all them. I think maybe he's just sort of like aged out and they've they're keeping him in the fault He does a lot of the tiktok stuff um, he dances with the troop So I think that like you can only be a pro for so long It's like a physical thing and they have to bring in new people So you can't really be mad he was on a for so long I think he won a couple of times and now he's still so fired They really keep everyone like in the family. Yeah very interesting. Yeah, it's it is like it's an underworld I'm not gonna go watch old seasons because that would be inferior You need to not be able to recap it or vote like or vote um But that is I that's cool.
