Slip It In
You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, you’ll let us Slip It In!
Slip It In is the unhinged brunch conversation you can’t help overhearing! Longtime friends Matty, Megan and JJ take on the kinds of hot topics that always find their way to the table, including pop culture, internet trends, products, dating and relationships, and the everyday chaos we probably should keep to ourselves, but don’t.
Expect personal stories, questionable opinions, unexpected confessions, product discoveries, recurring debates and the occasional piece of advice no one asked for. It’s smart, funny, self-aware and just inappropriate enough to make you check whether anyone else heard it.
Pull up a chair and let us Slip It In to your weekly routine.

Back In Studio And Sound Check
unknownSlippers unite, it's time to play. We bring the spice to your work or your day, confessions, debates and a product or two. We slip it in just for you. You welcome, welcome, welcome, everyone.
Speaker 1We are back slipping it in with you. As you can tell.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's nice to have you guys. This is the first time, really, in 2026 that we have all been in the studio together.
unknownYeah.
Speaker 3We might be sounding a little different.
Speaker 2Hopefully better. For all any new any new listeners we might have picked up in the new year because if they wanted to start listening to us, we're gonna admit it was a little rough. Yeah.
Speaker 3The board, I got it on the control. I'm back at the board.
Speaker 2You're back at the board. Well, the board traveled, and we each took turns being the remote guest. And I mean, we're still working some kinks out. Uh, video's still on the horizon, but we're working with some different software products. TBD, stay tuned. But yeah, if we're gonna, this is gonna be a good sounding. This is our standard right here.
Speaker 3Yeah, 100%.
Speaker 2Well, let's hope. Yes, let's hope. We'll figure it all out.
Hinge Date Debrief And Stomach Bug
Speaker 2So, what do you been up to? You want to know what I've been up to?
Speaker 1Yeah, 100%.
Speaker 2Well, I went out on my first date of Hinge. Congratulations. Of 2026, but also of Hinge or my resolution to go on Hinge.
Speaker 3Okay, did you take any of the advice from the expert over here?
Speaker 2Well, I didn't do coffee.
Speaker 1Which is me. I'm the expert, and I said no coffee, so thank you for taking my espresso martini.
Speaker 2I did do dinner and I did have an espresso martini. Okay. That's fine. And um, I also came down, I think, with the case of the stomach flu.
unknownBut it could be a blessing and a curse sometimes.
Speaker 2I it's not they're not related. Okay. The date and the stomach.
unknownCorrect.
Speaker 2I don't have a stomach flu as a result of the date. I have stomach flu, I think, because of a door dasher. Oh.
Speaker 3So your date was a door dash date?
Speaker 2No, we're conflating the two.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2I'm sorry. That's on my on me.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2There's a date that happened. Two days later, there's a stomach bug flu that happened. Oh, wow.
Speaker 1Well, when you say stomach bug flu, like how do you catch it from a door dasher?
Speaker 2Funny, you should ask. So I ordered food on Sunday. And when I ordered it, I got a message like two minutes in that said pointedly in the messaging app, when I chose to pick up, I'm inflecting where I think it should be inflected. When I chose to pick up this order, it said I was doing a restaurant and a target pickup. Have you since canceled the target pickup? Well, I've never I've never ordered any DoorDash from a Target or a grocery store. I know it's common practice.
Speaker 3I've sometimes done a I've never done it. I haven't because when you order, then it if you do it with DoorDash, it tells you you still have about 10 more minutes if you want to do a convenience store or a pharmacy stop. Or
DoorDash Double Pickup Conspiracy
Speaker 3I've done I've done a CVS stop with the DoorDash.
Speaker 2Yeah. I mean, common practice. I didn't do it. I didn't even think anything of it at the time. I just replied and said, no, I didn't do a Target. Yeah. But I'm putting pieces together after the fact. So then I have my food for the evening. I have a really rough night sleeping-wise. And the next day, I literally got up out of bed and I'm like, I I can't do this. Like I just felt really crappy. Oh wow. And then I ended up having to take a day off of work. So last night, the whole night, I just sweated profusely throughout the whole night, which I think was my body trying to get rid of whatever it was. So then I'm reflecting back and I think there's a potential. I'm not a trying to give DoorDashers a bad name.
unknownYeah.
Speaker 2But I think it's uh ding ding ding ding when a Door Dasher sees a double pickup because they think, well, the tip will increase after the second stop, so it's a twofer. And then if he thinks in his mind that I well, I'm giving you my surmincing. I'm surmining. I'm just I appreciate it. This is all fabrication. I believe you. Yeah, I agree. It sounds good to me. So if he thank you. So if he sees a twofer go down to a one fur, and he thinks that I somehow sabotaged him and now he's stuck.
Speaker 3I don't.
Speaker 2He could have gotten upset and done something to my food.
Speaker 3Like what, for example?
Speaker 2Well, like spit in your food. Did you notice anything different on the I don't think any of us could notice if someone spit in your food, but I think he could have. Also, if you are this is another hypothesis, but if you are scorn me once, shame on me. Is that how it goes? Shame scorn me twice, shame on you. So by that I mean if you if a door dasher feels like he got screwed by a person that ordered, then maybe I'll start carrying around a little something, something with me. So the next time I feel screwed over, maybe I just add a little sprinkle or a dash.
Speaker 3Don't I think that they can do that.
Speaker 2Well, a lot of places now they do seal up your bags.
Speaker 1Well, was yours sealed when you received it?
Speaker 2That's well, see, I didn't know any of this was even like I was healthy as a horse pre-door dash.
Speaker 1Well, was that from Papa's? Maybe it was just food poisoning.
Speaker 2That's that's what it actually could be as well. It's one of those food poison.
Speaker 1You're accusing this DoorDasher of sabotaging your food, but in reality, it could be just a plates. Yeah, what did you order?
Speaker 2That could also be a truth. It's one or the other. What did you order? It's like a burger of fries.
Speaker 1Did the burger have lettuce on it? Lettuce is a highly contaminated. Well, pickles, onions too.
Speaker 3Yeah, I avoid onions too.
Speaker 2Very highly contaminated. Okay, well, one or the other. That is that's a PSA.
Speaker 3So you're feeling better now, though?
Speaker 2No, I don't feel great sitting here at the table right now. There's yeah, it's not perfect, but I'm on the mend.
Speaker 1Well, how was the date?
Speaker 3Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2Oh, the date was good.
Speaker 1Inquiring minds want to know, and believe me, I'm not forgetting. Forgetting was great.
Speaker 2Um, a cute little restaurant in a town that was halfway between our two locations. I did talk to him about the pod. He said he would give it a listen to. We are still communicating. Nice. And um, he has thrown out tidbits. He agrees with you on some things, Megan. Oh, I like him already. Yeah. And he a boy right after my own. He says we have good chemistry, but I do want to say just you and Megan. No, all of us. But anytime someone agrees with her, I'm like, I know. We're gonna have to narrow it down because a lot of things are sad.
Speaker 1Oh my god. Do not try to sabotage my relationships with these boys.
Speaker 2You don't have a relationship.
Speaker 1Anyway. The boyfriends always seem to love me. Well, let's not throw words around.
Speaker 2Don't put that word in. True story. I'm gonna say one thing that came up in our conversation that was very funny, and I told him, I asked him if I could have his permission to say it. He said I could. So we were just talking about past long-term relationships that we had been in. Not in depth, but just like, you know, what's your background story? I said this. I said, I have been in three long-term relationships. I was in one with a white man, one with an Italian man, and one with a Spanish man. This gentleman is black, and he goes, Wow, you're progressively getting darker and darker, aren't you? Oh, look at that.
unknownI love it.
Speaker 2And I'm like, well, that is the order in which the long-term relationships happened. And I never had even thought about that. But that is funny. The puzzle pieces fit.
Speaker 1So well, and once you go black, you don't go back.
Speaker 3Oh my god. Wow. Give it a second date and give us an update. Yeah.
Speaker 2We'll see. We'll see you guys. Okay.
Speaker 1Well, I know you said you're not feeling
Travel Updates And First Class Upgrade
Speaker 1the greatest. I'm feeling fine. But if you notice that I sound like I might be a little slurring or something of that nature, I recently got two crowns and my mouth is still very sensitive and hurts a little.
Speaker 2So to go with your tiara.
Speaker 1Yeah.
unknownMm-hmm.
Speaker 1Crowning it out. And so I notice sometimes I kind of speak a little funny because I'm not using part of my mouth. Well, I maybe it's just how you're professional when you're talking about. Well, and maybe that's why because I'm it hurts when I try to speak properly. Um it's because when I have a drink of water, it um it's really sensitive to hot and cold. When I press on and stuff, it doesn't hurt. So should be fine.
unknownOkay.
Speaker 2But anyway. My travel. Yep. Yeah.
Speaker 1The last episode, JJ and I were both in Puerto Rico where we had had a run-in at the La Cancha Hotel with a man named David, who we were like, he could be a grifter, he could not be. We don't know. We went back for round two, and he was right there at the bar, right where we left him the night before.
Speaker 3Yeah. He wake up next to him.
Speaker 1Grifting again. He was all up in with talking to some woman. But then when she went away, I motioned for him and he trotted right over. She sure did. Oh, he did. And he came right over.
Speaker 2I motioned for him.
Speaker 1And I did. I and he came right over and sat by us. And we had drinks. He was out till four in the morning the night before, but he made it to his talk and he talked, but he said he was hurting, but he was back on drinking it up. He was drinking Johnny Walker Blue.
Speaker 2Did you get similar vibes, or do you feel like it was tempered?
Speaker 1No, some similar vibes. Like he called out my handbag and he's like, is that Bottega Veneta?
Speaker 3And I'm like his designers.
Speaker 1And I was like, yes, it is. Even though it's Quince. Shout out Quince, who we've all talked about as so was it Bottega developed? Vignetta. No, so Quince, it's an Italian like leather handbag.
Speaker 2And you said yes to him.
Speaker 1Well, because it does look like it could be.
Speaker 3Right.
Speaker 1Well, that could put you in danger, girl. If he thinks you're carrying her around. Well, anyway, he was very, there was a lot of drug talk again. Like I think he was looking for drugs. Um, he was flying back home Sunday around the same time I was. But we did, we found out his name, we friended him on LinkedIn, we friended him on Instagram, and he was messaging me away on Sunday.
Speaker 2Wow. On LinkedIn. So we'll see where this goes.
Speaker 1Yeah, he's like a new best friend. Yeah. Like seeing.
Speaker 3You should probably see him on Savannah.
Speaker 1I might message him that I I told him I was going to Savannah. I'm off to Savannah this weekend. So I need to get out of this cold weather.
Speaker 3Yeah. You sure do. Talking about cold weather. What do you think about it? I am just as we record this. I I just landed a couple hours, a few hours ago, uh in Michigan, and as ironic as that sounds, I'm just happy to be home. Um, it's been a long, long month. Um, so I'm very, very happy. And even my journey back, um, I had some cancellations because some there were some winters, um, storms.
Speaker 2Or some winters happening. That's for sure.
Speaker 3So that was a sign for me to just like, yeah, just delay this um comp you coming back, JJ. But I do have to say that the this delays and cancellations actually got me my first ever first class um um
Neon Spandex Mystery Passenger
Speaker 3flight to uh back home. And I gotta tell you, it's it's the best thing since spread.
Speaker 1Yes. I love thank you. You love it. Pick your nerves.
Speaker 2You did the vegan enunciation.
Speaker 1I love first class. Yeah, and it's heaven whenever I get it.
Speaker 3I got in and he's like, Oh, we're waiting for you, Mr. Lopez. And as soon as I walked, I I got into uh my seat, he's like, Oh, you're there. It's fine. I, you know, the people know what my last name is.
Speaker 1Um JJ Ice because we don't use our last name.
Speaker 3It's fine. Well, all right. It's fine. Well, yeah, I'm cousins with J Lo.
Speaker 2Not every Puerto Rican Spanish man has the last name of Lopez. Come on now.
Speaker 3Um, but yeah, I I had a it was the best way to um you know take away the whole cancellations and things like that. So I'm just happy to be back. And if even though the weather here is nothing compared to what's what was what was there in Puerto Rico, but yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Well, we're welcome back. Yes, we're happy to have you back. Now let me ask you this. When you got on first class, did you happen to see a very buff man sitting in the first row of first class in all neon latex pants with a tight tank top with tons of ribbons on his arms?
Speaker 3I did not see him because you saw him on your flight, not in my flight.
Speaker 1Oh I was so do you want to talk about said buff man?
Speaker 3I was we were done with the update.
Speaker 1Well, I have to let the listeners know because I got on my flight and right in front of me, first row of first class, was this very attractive, very buff man, all in spandex, but not just spandex, neon spandex, and on his arms around all his different muscles. He had like 10 different neon ribbons all tied around. So I was like immediately trying to like get my camera out to take a picture on my phone, but I wasn't fastened because I did keep moving. Oh yeah. It was a little come on over, baby. And I'm like, I've got a Puerto Rican hip hop star or singer or wrestler. I didn't know what he was, but I thought he had to be one of those things who had to run off stage or run off the court to make this flight. So I sat, I was in the first row of Economy Plus behind first class. So I had a bright, easy eye on him and I monitored him the whole flight, hoping he'd stand up so I could get a picture.
Speaker 2Well, we were getting pictures of albums.
Speaker 1Yes, with the ribbons. You saw the neon ribbons. It looked crazy, right? Just those ribs, those ribbons. So those ribs. One of the flight attendants was kind of a very loud young girl, and there was a gay. So the young girl flight attendant and her gay best friend flight attendant went up towards the end of the flight, and they were like, We just have to ask, what's this outfit about?
Speaker 3They had that voice like that.
Speaker 1Oh, yeah. And like, I mean, I was six rows back and I heard everything she said perfectly. And apparently he lost a bet, and he was going back home to Chicago. All his buddies were around him, and he lost a bet and had to wear this outfit the whole plane ride. And it was a cold flight. So and he had a little tank top on, but apparently it was fine.
Speaker 2You guys ever um done that prank where you're traveling with a friend and you like put a watch around a big dildo and you put it in their carry-on?
unknownOh, I've seen it. I've never seen it. I've seen it.
Speaker 3Yes, I've seen it on Tink Top.
unknownIt's like a real thing.
Speaker 3I've seen it on TikTok. It's like I always wanted to do it, but I'm like, oh, this is because it's so funny.
Speaker 1But I don't understand. Well, no one would even see it.
Speaker 2Well, just TSA it in there with something that requires them to pull the bag aside and open it, and then they're like, sir, it's and it's like wrapped in like tinfoil or something. Something that sets off the things and they're and it's a giant delta.
Savannah Guthrie’s Missing Mom Case
Speaker 2Oh, that's why you say the watch around it.
Speaker 1So it looks like it's ticking.
Speaker 2Like a tick top, like it, yeah, like it's uh ticking.
Speaker 3It's so funny. I can't.
Speaker 2Yeah. Well, I don't know why I thought of that, but when you were talking, like he lost a bat. This is typically happens a lot of times like with bachelor parties that are destinations, and the guys all like, it's not a bet, but it's a gag. Yeah. In literally.
Speaker 1Wow. Well, please don't do this dildo. Oh shit.
Speaker 2I am dreaming of doing it with you.
Speaker 1Oh god.
Speaker 2I would love it if it pulled out of your bag.
Speaker 1Well, I want to know are you following all this big today show news?
Speaker 2Oh, yeah.
Speaker 1Or today show adjacent. You're talking about Savannah. Manny, yeah, because I know I just learned about it today.
Speaker 2It is devastating, and it I just it hits in all the wrong places. Um, but for listeners uh that aren't privy to this information or don't watch the Today Show, or I don't know, wherever you get your news. This might not be on the TikToks, I don't know. But Savannah Guthrie's mom has apparently been, I guess, kidnapped, abducted. They use these abducts, and she's 84 years old, and she was taken from her bed at midnight. Now, the store or not at midnight, throughout in the middle of the night, sorry. Saturday night. Saturday night. And the the story has been developing. So when we first saw it, it was her mom is missing, and it's been 24 hours. There was very little detail. Since then, they've started to process the scene and they found a DNA blood trail um extending out one of the doorways, and there's signs of a struggle. And there is um, I think there was uh like her phone was left behind, and maybe her per in her meds. So she she's I don't know what kind of meds she takes, but she's reliant on meds that she has to take every 24 hours. So that puts her in further danger because she doesn't have her meds with her. And well, I think at this when we're recording in this episode, we're dropping tomorrow, but at this point, I think it's 72 hours, 72 hours, and she's not had these critical meds, whatever they are.
Speaker 1But they said that if she doesn't have them every 24 hours, she could die. So it's we're in like critical stages, and so Savannah Guthrie just pulled out of the Olympics. She was supposed to go to um she always covers um Hoda.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think a lot, I don't know, every Olympics, but I think I can't think of the name of where the Olympics are being hosted. The Winter Olympics. Are they in Italy? Italy?
Speaker 1They might it might be the Winter Olympics. I don't know. They're coming up this weekend, they start. So sports, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3I know that there's five from Michigan guys.
Speaker 1Yes. Well, we have a we're always big with uh this winter sports, plus we have a big ice skating community, so we have a big ice dancers here. Tangent.
Speaker 2But the two favorite ones are from Michigan.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2No, their names either.
Speaker 1But so getting back getting back to Nancy Guthrie, which is Savannah's mom's name, is also apparently there's a ransom note. They aren't saying whether they believe it to be real or not, but apparently the note demands a specific amount of Bitcoin, and the amount is in the millions, and it demands it to be uh sent via cryptocurrency to a specific Bitcoin address. And it also included specific details about the crime scene, and the police have been very coy about details at the crime scene. We only know about this trail of blood out the front door because a news reporter went and like videotaped the front of the house.
Speaker 2And when you say um this ransom note, like this am I right in that this is what like TMZ and page six are reporting? Correct.
Speaker 1But law enforcement has not substantiated this, but it seems to they kind of have they've sort of said they know there's the ransom notes out there, they're not gonna talk about what's true. Yeah. So I think every there it they've kind of acknowledged that it exists. Okay. So um, yeah, it's very scary because I often think nowadays, like, oh, I'm not a young 20-year-old, I'm kind of safe from getting kidnapped or raped, but she's 84 and she was kidnapped from her bed in the middle of the night.
Speaker 2It's disgusting. And it's sad, it's very sad. I mean, yeah.
Speaker 1And it was from a very like high end uh ritier community in Tucson, Arizona.
Speaker 2I hate to even say it, but because of that ritzy area, and if this person has any knowledge of her family connection and Thinks that two things could be true. One, it'll get a lot of attention because she's a broadcaster for the Today Show. Correct. And two, I mean, she's connected to money, right? Exactly. Yeah. Um, and and the mom has been on several segments. I love the today show. I can't get enough of them.
Speaker 3Yeah, I know. That's the reason you steals and deals. Wanted a peacock um upgrade.
Speaker 2I didn't, I did, I did need you. I did have to put in a quick uh upgrade request because we share some services. And I'm like, I just cut my cable. So something's gotta give because I don't have the today's show. We gotta upgrade to Peacock.
Speaker 3You tried CBS morning, maybe. Did not. Sorry, Gail. I couldn't.
Speaker 2Good morning, America.
Speaker 1It's a no for you.
Speaker 2Well, Gail.
Speaker 1Oh, I love Gail.
Speaker 2I love Gail too. Not as a broadcaster, I guess. Really? No. I don't, you know, I've had I had a couple complaints earlier with our flights. I know.
Speaker 1Well, Chris Jenner's birthday party.
Speaker 2And her and her. It's a must. It's a must be a few. Going up to space. I can't. But yeah. So anyway. We're sending out all of our well-wishes, prayers. Yeah. But we'll stay on top of the story, but hopefully we're still hoping for a positive outcome, but we'll see.
Speaker 3Yeah, you mentioned sadness and like, you know, it's it's crazy how that there's so much hate around us. Um and one thing that we are as a pot very proud of is just try to um overshadow that hate with lightness and a good spirit. And one thing that little humor prevailed in little humor, yeah. And one thing that prevailed, I don't know if you guys watched the Grammys.
Speaker 2I watched the Grammys.
Speaker 3One thing that prevailed was just that message about how can um well one of my favorites, Bad Bunny, mentioned how we often try to fight hate with hate, but we forget about the
Grammys Recap: Wins, Flubs, And Trends
Speaker 3only thing that could actually win over hate is love. Uh and he said that on his speech for album of the year, which was when he went up to accept the award.
Speaker 2Yeah. It was he he he did a great job, I thought.
Speaker 3Yeah, I mean, we've talked about Bat Money before and and what uh the impact that he's created for the and I wouldn't say just like the Puerto Rican community. I at this point, Bat Bunny is a global superstar uh that has lifted the whole um Latino community and Hispanic community, but he 10 years ago, 2016, Bat Bunny was bagging groceries at a grocery store in Puerto Rico.
Speaker 2That's amazing. I wish he would have been bagging my groceries.
Speaker 1And I mean Well, were you in Puerto Rico 10 years ago? Probably. I could have been.
Speaker 2I was probably have been there like four or five times. On your way back from San Thomas. Yeah, who knows? From here on out, I'm gonna be very attentive to my grocery daggers. Because you never know.
Speaker 3Yeah, but it's just crazy to see him like now, 10 years after, winning this award, the album of the year that has not been won by any Latin artist before ever. Can you if you think about it, like there's been so many great artists that you know there are Latinos, but Bat Bunny has I think that it's just it goes beyond music at this point with Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2He's very much an advocate and a role model and a hum humanist, humanity, humanitarianity.
Speaker 1Humanitarian.
Speaker 2Oh my god, thank god that did that come from me. Do you know? I didn't know this, but I learned this.
unknownHumanity.
Speaker 2Human. I learned this at the um during Cher's uh acceptance speech. Do you know? Because she said this, and she did it like it was the equivalent of a Latin person winning the very first ever. She's like, Do you know? I was the very first ever to use auto-tune. She said on that when she did her believe. That song believe. Oh, yeah. I didn't really realize that. And I don't know. I mean, I don't know. I feel like there was auto-tune.
unknownYeah, pretty much.
Speaker 3I think that probably she was before her. But she does.
Speaker 1The believe song, though, was like more of a.
Speaker 2Well, there were some other things going on with Cher up on stage.
Speaker 1So I wouldn't, I agree.
Speaker 2I think there was uh, but fact check it. She said it. I don't know if it's true, but she said it.
Speaker 3But but I also think that I've heard that before from her that she's well.
Speaker 1I feel like she thinks is proud of it, but I'm not sure that's the point.
Speaker 3I think we've got some things going on.
Speaker 2I like it. Well, let's just talk about what else went on on that scene. So bless her. I mean, talking about an icon and a global superstar, and that woman is still out there working it, but it was a little as never Noah Trot Tyler, Trevor Noah. Trevor Noah. You know, when you got two first names, it's Trevor Noah.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 2I want to say Noah Trevor.
Speaker 3No, Trevor Noah. Trevor Noah at the end of a great job.
Speaker 2After all the shenanigans of shares, he just said, God, I love live TV. So here's what happened if you didn't watch, but she it was a twofer, again, another use of the word twofer tonight. They brought her out on stage to present an award.
Speaker 1Like a lifetime achievement award for her.
Speaker 2Yes, an award for her, but then she was to present an award.
Speaker 1Correct. After she got her lifetime award.
Speaker 2So Noah or Trevor actually presented her with the award. She gave the equivalent of an acceptance speech. That's where the auto-tune was dropped. And then she's standing up there, and then she forgot the second part of the twofer. And she's just like, well, um, okay. Well, I I guess I'm just supposed to walk off the stage. And then she kind of does a little printsy little turnaround and she puts her hands out, if I recall, and she kind of starts to walk to the back of the stage and she's strutting her stuff. And then all of a sudden, uh Trevor's like, um share, ma'am, ma'am, if you don't mind, uh, could you come back and maybe read the nominees for I don't know what it was. And then she's like, Oh, see how I didn't want to be out here on the stage? And then she announces the people that are in line for the award, and then she opens up the envelope and she goes, The winner is Luther Vandrils who died like in the 1990s.
Speaker 12005. Oh, 2005.
Speaker 2Luther Vandross. Oh god. And we had flashbacks.
Speaker 3After that, she should have said, if I turn back to the book.
Speaker 1Oh god, that would have been amazing.
Speaker 2I don't know why, because these are similar but different, different, but it had flashbacks to when uh Elizabeth Taylor opened up the winner for the movie and went Gladiator. She was like, Luther Vandros. And then no. But so the song was called Luther, and it is about Luther Vandros, and it was Kendrick Lamar. And SZa. And she goes, she you could hear her out. They did a shot to the audience, the Luther to uh Kendrick and SZA getting up, and she corrects herself, but it was a show. Love it. It was funny.
Speaker 3And Kendrick and SZA then clarify a second. You know, Luther was the inspiration behind this song. So I mean it all probably even joked around and said, Maybe Luther was, you know, trying to get himself into the Grammys 2026. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2And I I think the internet all responded positively to it as in like a funny moment. No, you can't, you can't turn on share.
Speaker 1You can't turn your whole back on share. My God. Well, let me tell you, she was not the first to use auto-tune. Oh, but producers did use auto-tune on believe, not to correct it, but to use it stylistically.
Speaker 3That's the first time ever.
Speaker 1No. Oh autotune was invented in 1997 and used in lots of songs, but it was always used as like correcting people's voice to make them in tune.
Speaker 2In tune.
Speaker 1But on believe for share, they used it stylistically so that it like created rapid pitch corrections, creating a very obvious sound and very stylistic. So it was a new way of using auto-tune.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1And then other people copied it. So that's what came out.
Speaker 2It's been a while, but let me just say we're an educational pod. Yeah, we are educational,
Naked Dresses, Wide-Leg Pants, And Denim Talk
Speaker 2totally.
Speaker 1And let me tell you, as far as educational pods go, I would say the Grammy showed us that maybe 2026 is the year of nakedness.
Speaker 3Oh, I mean, I'm in for that.
Speaker 1Yeah. Well, Justin Bieber, he came on stage in his boxers to perform.
Speaker 2I didn't. I thought his performance was great. I didn't I didn't describe creative to wear boxers. Yeah. They were clean. Because well, there's that. Because why? Strip down?
Speaker 3Yeah, I think that his comeback, a strip down, and like just be his raw self. And Haley, his her face was so like proud of the things that he's overcome throughout the years. So I just thought it was just him there, just playing.
Speaker 2He looked chilly. At one point he crossed he crosses his arms like you would if you're gold. Did you see that?
Speaker 1So I'm like, brrrr. Well, I wonder if he was as chilly as Chapel Rone, who basically had a whole topless dress. Yeah. She had her dress was just like clipped to like nipple rings. Yeah, and had tattoos on.
Speaker 3But they were not her actual nipples.
Speaker 1No, supposedly I read that she had like nipple caps on. But it I didn't think it looked good.
Speaker 3She was cold as well.
Speaker 1It looked cold.
Speaker 2Said the nipple clamps. Yes.
Speaker 1Yes. But like some of the other celebrities that were wearing kind of these naked dresses where it's like slips of fabric and see-through and barely stain on was Tiana Taylor.
Speaker 2Best dress for me. And best body I'm going to do. Body, yaddy, yaddy, yaddy. Life. I mean two children, 50 something, no? No, man. Oh, what is she? No, I don't think that she's okay. Well, two children.
Speaker 1Well, yeah. She's had two kids, but she's not in her 50s. She's not in her 50s? No.
Speaker 2Oh, that was Pharrell who said he was 42. 52. Yeah. I'm getting my fat.
Speaker 1I mean, one's a man, one's a woman.
Speaker 2No, but I yeah, it's called. She's 35. Yeah, I was gonna say she's very young. Sorry, Taya.
Speaker 1Well, Tiana.
Speaker 2Tiana.
Speaker 1Also, uh Karol G. She had a naked dress on.
Speaker 2Don't know her.
Speaker 1Yes. She's a Colombia.
Speaker 3She's a Colombian. The one that was with Marcelo Hernandez.
Speaker 2I did say she looked beautiful. Yeah.
Speaker 1And then Entertainment Tonight host Kelty Knight. She had she looked beautiful. She looked beautiful. She was debating wearing that dress. And so she did share plum several days in a row before. And then she got super sick from it.
Speaker 2Wow. You follow the Entertainment Tonight hosts, like Road to Fashion.
Speaker 1Well, Kalty Knight is often a co-host on Jeff Lewis Live.
Speaker 2And there we go. Jesus, I can't.
Speaker 1I did not. You did. I did. Well, I didn't know all roads always made you. I learned a lot about what her prep was going to be if she was going to wear that dress.
Speaker 2I thought it was odd that you're singling her out.
Speaker 1Well, she had a naked type dress on. So she felt this was her year to do it because she didn't think she'd be as skinny again in her life. Okay. So the other thing I noticed from the Grammys, and I like some of it and some of it I don't, is that these wide, wide leg pants are coming back for men. And I like a wider leg pant, but I don't like these big, wide, super wide, pleated pants that the men are wearing.
Speaker 2I'll take a bootcut any day. A bootcut. I like a bootcut. 10 boot cuts out of my basement wardrobe that have been waiting. I can't have been waiting for a trend return. Oh, they waiting. And they are ready. They are ready.
Speaker 3I kind of I don't mind those um white-legged pants, to be honest. And the with the pleated, like with the pleats and things. I don't know if I could I could personally wear that. So don't worry about it. I'm not gonna come out with those uh to a party or anything like that. Um I mean I do have to say that if I were to do the splits, it would well you would have no problem.
Speaker 2They'd go, yeah, they work with their split action. Yeah. Let me ask you, JJ, are you um happy to see the skinny pant go?
unknownYeah.
Speaker 2Same. Me too. And it should never come back.
unknownYeah.
Speaker 2I think when we get a little further away from it, people are gonna be like, I cannot believe we wore this. I'm fine. I didn't ever wear I didn't.
Speaker 3I've been wearing a little bit more baggy clothes lately, and I'm enjoying it, to be honest.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, I like it too. Now let me ask you, boys, have you ever worn women's denim jeans?
unknownNo, I've never.
Speaker 1I asked that because I thought you were gonna say women's panties.
Speaker 2I don't know why, but that's I was like, that's a hard term. I was just wearing it.
Speaker 3There's now now some lace underwear.
Speaker 2To be clear, my answer is notable.
Speaker 1You seemed excited about the women's panties. Well, I did perk up because I didn't know where we were going.
Speaker 3You were like, Well, I'm ready for this.
Speaker 1Well, I only asked because you had a bin downstairs. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3Oh god.
Speaker 1I saw an interview of Billy Bob Thornton, and he says he wears a woman's Levi's size six. That's all the jeans he wears. No, interesting.
Speaker 2Women's jeans size
McNugget Caviar Drop Announcement
Speaker 2six.
Speaker 1Leave no Levi's women's jeans size six. He didn't say what number are women's, but it was interesting. But I will comment.
Speaker 2Did you know they button on the the button and the zippers are on the opposite sides for men and women? Billy Bob seems to like it.
Speaker 1Well, and that kind of gets into something like a few years ago, I was like, you know what? Everyone wears these fancy jeans. I'm gonna like buy my pair, myself a pair of like fancy jeans. So I went to Nordstrom and I tried on all these jeans, and I couldn't find anything. Then I watched this TV show and I saw a pair of jeans. I'm like, those look really great.
Speaker 2Fancy.
Speaker 1I didn't know if they were fancy or not, but I looked them up. They were called mother and they have M's on the mother. Yeah, it's mother denim is the website. Um, anyway. Are they made by drag queens? No, it's a man and a woman. They don't just have women's pants. They also make men's. They make men's pants. A lot of drag queens are men and women, too. Yeah. Well, so you don't have to be like Billy Bob. You can get a pair of mother denim jeans and they can be made for men. Anyway, I fell in love with them, but they are expensive. They typically start around $248.
unknownGod.
Speaker 1So um. But anyway, when I wear them, I often get compliments on my channel.
Speaker 2Do you stay in the room? Do you well?
Speaker 1I kind of sachet about. Yeah. Oh snap when you come into the room.
Speaker 3Sante, you stay mother.
Speaker 1So since then, like my kind of like when I need a little break from work is I troll Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's and the mother website looking for mother jeans that are on sale.
Speaker 3Are they in Quinn's?
Speaker 1No, Quince doesn't sell name brands. Quince typically, there might be a case, like they had the Dom champagne, but they're typically doing luxury for less and they're its own brand. So I'm you can find them. Anyway, my favorite styles so far are the hustler and insider styles. I love them. The name mother is the idea of playing off duality. So it can be nurturing or a cuss. So they're like trying to evoke the unconditional love and teenage rebellion all at the same time.
Speaker 2Is it spelled like mother? Yeah. Because we're saying like we're kind of using some slang terminal.
Speaker 1Yeah, so I didn't know if it was mother, M-O-T-H-E-R. And on the back pockets, they have an M.
unknownYeah.
Speaker 1And they have an M. So I'm Megan. So I like having the Ms on my ass.
unknownOh.
Speaker 1And they have a very big like model cult following. They use super soft fabrics, and it's considered like a boutique. They're all made in LA um brand. So it's American made.
Speaker 3I love it. Love it. I'm gonna try.
Speaker 1I'm gonna I mean yeah, check them out. We all I have them on our Linktree. They're on our Linktree. They're up there. I got some M's for you. M's? Okay.
Speaker 2I'm gonna throw this in. I typically don't do this, but I do have a PSA that listen. This benefit
Slip It In: Pissarro, Flights, Summer House, Prequels
Speaker 2is only no, you have one week to plan for this. I was thinking it drops tomorrow and they only have tomorrow, but we we're recording different this time. So you've got a week to prepare for this. Have you heard of McNugget caviar? No. So when I say I've got some M's for you, this is a McDonald's promotion. Oh god. Like Monopoly? Put this on your calendar. February 10th at 11 a.m. Eastern time. This is a McNugget caviar kit. They're only available online. You cannot go into the store to get them. They are shipping these free kits. It's a free kit. So it does not cost you a penny to get a kit, but I can guarantee there is gonna be a mad rush like a Harry Styles ticket presale to get these McNugget caviar kits. And you might ask, why a McNugget caviar kit? This was popularized during the US Open this last year. So for a hundred dollars at the US Open and tennis fans here in the house, they could get like a chicken nugget, not McDonald's, but a chicken nugget with oh Megan, you might need to help me with the pronunciation. Biergy Sergent Caviar. Oh my god. It's like a one-ounce tin of the pricey, pricey caviar. Yep. And you also will get a free $25 McDonald's arch card, which is just like a gift card intended for the chicken nuggets. So you'll get the caviar, the chicken uh gift card to go get your chicken McNuggets, and then you get creme fresh. Creme fresh. And then you get a mother, mother of pearl caviar spoon.
Speaker 1Oh, wow.
Speaker 2I love it.
Speaker 1So is that what they got at the US Open? They got the creme fresh, the chicken McNugget, and the caviar.
Speaker 2Well, it wasn't a McDonald's thing, to my knowledge. It was a so you when you say chicken McNugget. I'm not sure. Okay. But I think you I think it was just our mean that it's possible. I think it's just chicken fingers and caviar. It was a chicken and McDonald's noticed the content and the trend. And they're like, we have a McNugget. Why don't we do this with caviar? And you're gonna pair, you know, like a fast food restaurant with caviar. Don't you tell me you're not gonna get in line and try to sign up for a free tip?
Speaker 1Well, the problem is I'm not a caviar girl.
Speaker 2Well, the problem is we need to do a product reveal.
Speaker 1Well, then all three need to get on and get it. I need all three of you.
Speaker 2And even though this is gonna give us competition, the website is McNuggetCaviar.com.
Speaker 1Okay. 10 a.m. Fri February 10th. 11 a.m. February 10th. Eastern time. Eastern time.
unknownAll right. All right.
Speaker 1Isn't that a good well? They're really screwing the Pacific uh coast over. That's 8 a.m. for them.
Speaker 2The early bird gets the nugget.
Speaker 1I love it.
Speaker 3Get that nug.
Speaker 1Okay. I had to squeeze that in. No, I'm excited. Oh. I mean, kind of. Yeah, I love a thing like this. I love a promotion like this. I love the idea of it. I just don't like caviar.
Speaker 3Oh, we will try it.
Speaker 2Well, okay. You'll eat the nuggets. Yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2Well, I prefer it too. Maybe maybe it'll change your tune because together it creates a whole new flavor, which sometimes two products can do. Yeah.
Speaker 1Well, I know people love their baked potatoes with caviar and sour cream. Yeah, bring it out. I'm just gonna say like and Pringles.
Speaker 2This is hot off the press. I have inside information that I am privy to based on subscription models. And I just want you guys to notice since we drop this tomorrow, the trend in conversation. And just pay attention to when you will see coming to your site, guys.
Speaker 3100%.
Speaker 1Well, what if I'm the one talking about it? Well, I've equipped, I've set you up for that. Hot tea on the press.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 1I love it. Well, I think with that, it's time for some slip it ins. And my slip it in is a little different. So I'm just gonna say this. Happy are those who see beauty in humble places where others see nothing. And that was by Camille Pissarro in 1893, who is a French Impressionist painter, and he was known to be the father of the Impressionist painters. And I say this because I went to an exhibit of his in Denver on Saturday. And I love French Impressionists, and it was beautiful. And he's very interesting work because he was born in St. Thomas. And so a lot of his earlier work kind of is like islandy, and then he moved to France. Well, off and on different places in Europe, but most of his time in France, and then started becoming more into impressionist painting, and started, he was very about just painting everyday life, which at the time in Europe was considered not how painting should be. So that was part of the whole impressionist movement of painting just everyday life. Love that.
Speaker 2I love it when so it's kind of like auto-tune. Yeah, you're not supposed to be painting this way. I'm gonna paint this way. Yep, exactly. I lived in St. Thomas for a while. Yeah, I know. That's why I said that. Oh so and I was connection, I feel connected in a weird way.
Speaker 1Yes. So if you haven't seen any of his work, you should check it out. It's pretty amazing. And my pull it out kind of circles back to some of the earlier travel conversations we had. And I do not like it when I'm on a flight. And this doesn't happen in first class, but it does when you're in economy and even sometimes economy plus, where your people next to you, I don't want them touching me.
Speaker 2You don't either.
Speaker 1And I really like make myself small in my seat. If I'm on a window, I lean towards the window. If I'm in the aisle, I tip myself to the aisle. And if I'm in the middle, I try to keep myself in the center of my seat. Yeah. And I also feel like I kind of should get both those armrests, but I don't fight them if people are there.
Speaker 3Yeah, I hate a shared armrest.
Speaker 1Yeah, I agree. I'm not. But I had several flights in the last couple of weeks where people kept touching me. A lot of elbows to my side. And it's like you're clearly over the armrest if you're touching me. One guy like was such a mess. He was in the middle. I was on the window,
Listener Shoutouts, Green Tea, And Farewell
Speaker 1all crouched up on the window. His hand kept coming down and touching my leg.
Speaker 2What? Yes. Why was your his hand touching your leg?
Speaker 1Exactly.
Speaker 2Exactly. Was he pretending to drop a trail mix item?
Speaker 1No, he was. It was like, I don't know if he was asleep or what, but his it would just sleep. His hand would go off the armrest all full onto my leg.
Speaker 2Well, that sounds sketched.
Speaker 1It was sketch. So that was my pull it out. I don't want to be touched on flights.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean, it's one thing to elbow to elbow. It's another running your legs.
Speaker 1I know. There's like a space. It's not like I'm tight to tight on armrest to armrest. I have a lot of space to the side where people are.
Speaker 2I believe you.
Speaker 1Yeah. I believe you.
Speaker 2So there's no need for the touching.
Speaker 3You're before you before I fall asleep. Um I slip it in is uh a show or how Matty likes to call call it a program that I always look forward. I I look always look forward to uh watch during the winter, which is kind of like uh contradicting, but um it's Summer House.
Speaker 1Summer House is I can't wait. Yes, I love Summer House.
Speaker 3As we record it, it's tonight, uh, the premiere of Summer House. It's it's like one of those shows that I that I live vicariously through the life of this young kid in New York City, and they go to the Hamptons like during uh summer. So if you haven't watched, I I encourage Maddie all the time to watch it. Yeah. This is season 10.
Speaker 2Oh um, why get into it now?
Speaker 3But uh, but it's one of those shows that you can you don't even need to catch up. I think that you can actually start with season 10.
Speaker 1Well, and this is gonna be a good season, and I just want to remind you summer should be fun.
Speaker 2The way that was said, it's something ties to the show.
Speaker 3That it's definitely a slip.
Speaker 2And then she was just yelling at me again.
Speaker 3No, someone's gonna be like, My cool out is something that I realized um while I was in Puerto Rico. I hate a prequel.
Speaker 2Oh, I was gonna are you is this tied to um oh, I don't know the name of the show, but there's a prequel to that show you really House of Dragons and all that. Yeah, it's just exactly.
unknownI was gonna ask you to like the House of Dragons.
Speaker 3I do like the House of Dragons, but I realize that there's other shows that they've they've done these prequels, and I think that it's always an excuse to extend this show with new characters when you already know this character, how it is. It's just it's confusing at times. So I'm Are you gonna watch it?
unknownI am gonna watch it.
Speaker 1Yeah, uh it's in my TVR, Seven Kingdoms. Yeah, that's what it's like. I'm excited for it.
unknownYeah, but I'm but again, I'm like, do we really need a prequel? But I'm gonna watch it. Okay.
Speaker 2Well, a lot of times what happens, not that I know the expert, but a lot of times a book can get adapted. Yeah, and it could be like the author's fourth book in a series of books, and then they don't know if it's gonna catch on with fans or not. And then if it becomes very popular, to your point, like who's not gonna want to fund and say, wow, we've got a built-in audience, we can go forward, but we can also go backwards.
Speaker 3But the problem for me, um, regardless of going backwards, is that it's I find it that producers and directors, it's hard for them to find a younger version of a uh a character that we already know.
unknownAnd I'm like, I think that's they don't really look alike department.
Speaker 3The casting department, then yeah. So I'm like, no, it's a pullout for me.
Speaker 1I like it. Well, and I just speaking of that series, I wasn't into Game of Thrones, I could not get into it, but I loved House of Dragons and I'm all in for this new show.
Speaker 2Well, if you're asking, and you haven't, but I will say I got into Game of Thrones, I was out on House of Dragons and the fence on this one. Okay.
Speaker 1Did you so did you try House of Dragons and couldn't get into it? Because I loved it. Oh wow, I loved it.
Speaker 3I loved House of Dragons, me too.
Speaker 1Uh so good.
Speaker 3Matty, what do you got?
Speaker 2All right, my slip it in is I have a I had since coming back in the new year, one colleague start to pick up the pod, and now I get greeted with things that she is relating to that are like episode four, episode six. I don't even remember some of the things that we said, but it brings me joy because I'll get a Teams message and it'll say something like, Oh my god, I also had that experience. Or when you say this, it cracks me up. And I am like, Oh, I did say that, or whatever. And she said that we're a funny bunch and she loves it. And she is like, Ask Megan how she feels about popcorn tins and stuff like that. I'm happy to answer. I just I just it's it brings me joy. And the other thing I will say is the my other colleague, she brought me a packet of Yamamoto Yama Jasmine green tea, which I am sipping right now. And she says, You will like this tea. She's like, It calms me, you know, maybe talk about it on the pod. And it is good tea.
Speaker 1I love a good green tea.
Speaker 2Yeah, so I like that as well. So colleagues are welcome to buy me other products and give them to me, and I can sample them. Yeah, my pull it out is the passing of Catherine O'Hara.
Speaker 3Oh, yeah. So sad.
Speaker 2What a loss for the community it is. It's just it goes to show because um I will say this that when I go, I would love it to be fast and quick. And maybe it starts off small but takes me fast. I don't want I've seen too many people suffer in my own personal life, and just you know, just you know the struggles people of notoriety have gone through. So um at least there's that if you're gonna find any positive. But she was a unique, one-of-a-kind individual that could play across all types of genres, and she could do comedies, she could do drama, she could um what's it called when you just improv? Like she was just and kind. I mean, I I think, I mean, I didn't get time to do lunch with her, but she just struck me as a kind human being with a soul. So what a loss. Yeah, what a loss. But maybe an extra shall win record of the or record of the year.
unknownMaybe yes or no era.
Speaker 1Only in shares announcing. Well, with that, I think it's time to wrap it up. So check out our link tree at slip it in podcast. You'll find all the links for those mother genes.
