What are the highlights of the week?
Good morning millennials.
Welcome back to the toast and happy fucking Friday. Like my God, thank you Jesus and all the Lords of all people for bringing us to this moment.
It's very exciting for a number of reasons. Second full week of the new year in the books. And I actually, I read a statistic that most new year's resolutions are broken on the second Friday of January. Like, I don't, you feel that way that like that resolution energy has just gone out the window. Like you've, made it till today.
I don't relate to that because my relationship with resolutions is like I don't do them and on the one or two years I have actually done them it was such an important resolution like the vaping or when I decided to change my whole life philosophy saying yes to life like those are the two resolutions I've ever even tried I've never been a person on January 1st who like goes to the gym like so I don't participate in resolution culture.
To be honest, I'm very much participate in resolution culture. And I was feeling like the lag this week. And I was feeling really unmotivated. And if I hadn't read that statistic, I could see myself like giving up. Cause now it's the weekend.
What's worse than being another statistic?
Right. It's the weekend. So I'm not like up on my goals on the weekend. I could see myself like giving up by Monday. But now that I read the statistic, I do not want to be just a statistic. So I'm going to carry on. I have my water jug. We are drinking less and less before the show every day, which is good because I can't keep running to pee. So I just have to up my water intake in the afternoon.
It is so important that I, at the top of this show, issue two enormous corrections from yesterday's episode. One of them is yours. Okay. Lane Meester was not in Parenthood.
Okay. In my defense, Minka Kelly is in Parenthood. And in my defense, have the two of them ever been seen in the same movie together? Same trailer, different park. Like, literally... They're the same person. They look alike. They have similar career trajectories. Of course, I... I correct, I stand corrected, but my heart was in the right place.
And mine was also in the right place. And I see how I made this error, but when I was like giving my actual diatribe, that's so me, by the way, whenever I have to initiate a correction, it's never like an offhand remark. It's something I spoke about for 15 minutes.
Yeah, you are very passionate about it.
The story about the Severance TV show that... we did yesterday about like their big marketing campaign. I was talking about my experience with the show. Spoiler alert, I've actually never seen Severance. What I thought was Severance was actually a show called Industry. And I could see how you could be confused about that. Look up the posters. They're the same fucking show. They both take place like in the workplace. And I apologize, I've actually never seen Now I kind of want to, it sounds like something I might be interested in. I had watched Industry on HBO Max. I apologize, that whole thing statement, I made everybody just undo control Z. I heard Severance is a great show.
Yeah, so maybe we'll give Severance a shot. Maybe. Show called Severance.
Show called Severance. Streaming on Apple TV. I have a very complicated relationship with Apple TV subscription. Like I refuse, I let a lot of my subscriptions stay dormant. Like I'm never gonna cancel anything. Netflix, Hulu, Max. Even if I'm not watching them so frequently, that's baked into my monthly expenses. But there are certain ones, if I'm not using it, like with Ted Lasso, I would sign up for Apple TV. The second I was done with Ted Lasso, we're canceling Apple TV. Same goes for Peacock. I'm not attached to Peacock. I'll sign up to watch something and then I will cancel. Same with Paramount Plus. Some of them haven't really adapted to my monthly expenses.
Most of them, I don't really go through the subscriptions and change them. What I have is what I have, but I feel you about Apple TV. They don't have enough content to justify paying a separate price when I already have. You're telling me my Apple TV doesn't come with Apple TV Plus? Yeah, that part's really disgusting. So crazy. So it's kind of, it's on principle that I would pay for it.
