A Week of My New Eye, Hot Doctor, and Commencement Speech

The High Eyes and Low Loads of My Life is a Daddy to two kids and dozens of housewives.

“Joining me is always just my goes, Johnny L. Hey, John. Hi mama. Hey, mama. Mama.”

My left eye is cataract free. I'm still wondering if people will watch me if I have a glass eye. You're going to hear all about that. We checked in on the lies in Manelli audiobook club. My kids were added again. I may be in love with my eye doctor. Jordan is leaving us next week for a few days and we're tried to parse through how that was going to work. And a whole lot more. This is Andy Cohen's Daddy Diaries podcast.

Monday, March 23rd, 2026. Good morning, everybody. I'm Andy Cohen. It's a rainy day here.

I'm here with John Hill. Hey, John. I can't stand the rain. I can see out of my eyes.

“Yeah, you have a new eye. I have a new eye. Show her off.”

Looking good. Looking good. It is no pun intended. Can you see clearly? John, it's really clear to the point though to clear that now my right eye. I was going to say, can you get that done? It has the contact in it needs to be redone. Get that. No contact. It's an imbalance because the left eye is so pristine. Although everything is a little blue. I

guess my brain and my eye are learning how to coordinate seeing life as you can.

This point. Teach an old, fat, new trick. I know. I'm the old, fat. And these are the new tricks. I'm not even well. Everyone was worried. Well, well, I'm going to tell you all about it in a minute. I can't wait to hear every detail. I guess I've been waiting to hear. I know. So enjoy. Sit back. Sit back honey. You have the day off today. Did you see the comeback last night? I haven't seen it yet. I haven't watched it yet. Time

“did it come on. No, I think. Oh really? Because I looked around nine and it wasn't up yet.”

I chose to watch Summer House and Southern Charmer Union both episodes of those. Really? Do you like the Southern Charmer Union? Yes, you know how I do. I like to go into a reunion without having seen the series up until that point. This week's Summer House. I'm up today. I'm on I'm ahead. Kyle Cook. Worst episode in 10 seasons for Kyle Cook. I think. Yeah. I mean, did you see that Jordan? Yeah. That's really bad. Really bad. So no one has seen

this yet, but us, right? Okay. It comes out tomorrow. Two days. Really bad. So anyway. Enjoy that. So I have ready to buckle in for a story. Yeah, go for it. Let's hear it. Now if you recall. Last week, I worked like harder than normal. I hosted five Kelly Clarksons, which by the way, did I report to you guys? They're not airing during a straight week. It's just top scotch. Come on. And five watch would up and five for radio, along with parenting,

no sleep, et cetera, and so forth. Now by the time I got to the surgery center on Thursday, I was not allowed to eat anything, right? For all morning on Thursday morning. So she was or drink. So she was parched and tired and dehydrated and done. Did they put you all the way under? Well, so I get there. And they put you in, you sign all these waivers. Yeah, we're shooting lasers in your eye. No problem. Yeah, you're not in danger. It's fine. Go in.

They put me. They put an IV in my arm. And I'm sitting there in this kind of pre-op thing. I have a gallon on. And I'm sitting there and I'm like, wow, I'm so tired. Suddenly, I'm feeling so sleepy. And then I start feeling, because I start getting in my head. I'm like, oh, this is it. They're shooting lasers in my eyes. I start. I'm like, I'm feeling a little sick. I feel a little crazy. I don't know. I was starting to feel a little faint. Yeah. Like, I'm

like, well, they were putting you in a twilight state, though. Why? Well, they didn't start the stuff yet. Okay. It was just say lean. I mean, like, it was nothing. So I'm sitting say lean

go, yeah, they put this ice pack behind my head. So I'm sitting there. And I'm kind of regulating. They're about to bring me to wheel me into the operating area. And the gal from the front desk of the place comes out and she goes, uh, I'm not going to do her ethnic. Oh, she said. So it could be anything. It could be a roulette of ethnicities. So I can't get in trouble. But she now I want to know. I'll tell you during the commercial. Does she like lady in the tramp? So she said, um, you haven't

paid your bail. Now I have an IV in my arm. And I'm feeling a wee bit faint. And I said, uh, okay, and I said, well, wouldn't you want to clear that up when I check it? Well, would you like me to do? And she said, well, I mean, do you want to pay now? And I go, well, your Nike credit card is in my locker that you had me put my belongings in. In my fancy New Year's Eve coat that went viral. Thank you.

“Um, I go and then around my wrist was the key to my locker. I go, do you want to take this and go”

through my things? And then she's like, well, I could, uh, and so then I start getting really, you know, wrinkled. And I go, is there a world in which you think I'm not good for this? Like, do you think I could pay you on the way out? And then the nurses start glaring at her because clearly she's made a grave error. And then she's like, oh, yeah, yeah, she kind of scampers away. Well, she's just doing her job, Pasha and that's their policy. They got to get payment before

the surgery because then what if something happens? John. Oh, sir procedure. Anyway, they wheeled me in and they said, I go, okay, are you going to put me under now? They said, no, we're doing something

first. They bring you in. They lay the, now I'm on a laying down thing. They go, you're going to see

a light show. Enjoy. They put like these clamps on the side of your head and they put me under this thing. They shot like red and green lasers in my eye for like at least a minute. And I'm just looking and I'm like, wow, this is wild. They roll me away and they're like, okay, you can't see out of that eye anymore. And all of a sudden, I open my eye. Everything is blurry. They've just made my eye. It's dead. My eye now is just totally a blank slate. I'm like, wow, that is, I can't see in front of

me, but you're laying down being wheeled around. I'm laying down, shouldn't someone come up to you

before the procedure and say, okay, here's what's going to go down today. First, we're going to

we're going to hurry you for your credit card. Yeah, we're going to harass you. Right. Right. Pull you and then make you blind. Right. So then they wheel me into the operating area. And I say, and they go, well, we're about to put you under. They have maroon five. Oh, no. And I said, is this the moment? I go, when is the moment where I get to request my music? And the lady goes,

“you don't like this. I go, now, do you have the key key lounge? Right. She goes, what would you like?”

And I said, Pink Floyd. Yeah, light show. And then the doctor, he didn't say, I know that's right, but he basically said, I know that's right. And they put on Pink Floyd, here comes the anesthesia now. The doctor said to me, my handsome eye guy, who, by the way, is the young protege of the guy who has horribly insulted me for all the others. Right. Okay. So just to pull him in, he just wasn't nice to you. Well, thank you. So he had said, when they put you under,

they don't fully put you under. It's like, they, your conscious, he goes, and we talked to you the whole time. I said, fine. Well, I think I was so exhausted from the week and everything that free

“nap. I was, I went. And then all I remember, and oh, in the beginning, the first song was like,”

breathe, breathe in the air. So I was like, this is amazing. But then all of a sudden, I kind of

okay, Andy, you have five more minutes left. Then they must have put on like Pink Floyd shuffle,

“or I don't know, but a Dave Gilmore without Roger Waters song came on. Now, if you're a Pink Floyd fan,”

you don't count the Roger Waters less years as being, they, you don't want to hear that. Your physicians team had other things to worry about. I know, but I was like, this is not what I want to. And I was all, and all of a sudden, I was a little agitated by the music. And then there was a part of me that felt like I could kind of feel it. Like I was like, oh, me, no, like, I don't

like this. And I wanted to say, give me more juice, give me more juice. Like I wanted more

propofel, of course. I just wanted to bump it up, because anyone who's done Molly with me knows that there's a push. There's a time in the night where I will walk over and say,

“should we, John, even you remember that? Oh, I do. So like, I'm the bump it up guy, which is,”

by the way, side note gotten me in trouble with LSD, perhaps, which you're not supposed to bump up. You're just supposed to take the trip you took at the beginning. Anyway, that's a little PSA. So I get out of there. And I, the doctor, like, takes my phone from the tray, because I'm going to put my number in your phone. I was out of it. I'm like, okay, now, Crossiella came to pick me up. I certainly remember that that bitch needed her credit card, though. So I gave it to her.

Cross was the perfect nurse. She, I had a banana. She brought me a Amanda and orange. Should me a gay to rate is it in you? She should have. And that was the date my gay to rate came. And it was

“perfectly timed that my gay to rate came. But let me tell you, it was really intense. You're not”

really meant to use that eye. I am still, I have so many floaters in my left eye, which is very normal. I was a dinner the other night. I thought that a bug ran across the table, but it was a floater. I went, I like banged my hair down. And my friend across me was like, uh, say what? Now, what's coming on? I go, did a bug just cross the table. Are you supposed to go out the night of surgery like this? Well, no. So the night of the surgery, the day of the surgery, I stayed home.

The kids did not have school on Friday. So they came home from school. They very gently came in the room. And I had the nanny take them to the beach for the night, so that I could recover Friday just alone and lay down. And then they came back. So I had one night without them, which was really necessary. And it was really, um, it was really, and Ben was like, wait, you're not gonna have to wear contacts after this. He's like, you're blowing my mind daddy, you're

blowing my mind. I'm like, Ben, they shot lasers in my eye and scrambled my eye. Now, after the day on, so Friday morning, I went to the surgeon Friday morning first thing for a checkup. And I was like, when I look out my left eye, I was like, I see so beautifully. It's unbelievable. I'm seeing from my apartment. I am seeing the Statue of Liberty so clearly, whereas I knew it was there before and I could see like a blurry. I saw hash basically in that direction. But now, I mean, it's really

amazing. And the doctor said, and he had told me this the day before, but I forgot, he said,

your surgery, what, he said it's supposed to take 10 minutes. Yours took 20. He said it was a very difficult surgery. I go, well, no one wants to hear that. And he said I was moving around a lot. He goes, you were way too under on the profile. He said, I didn't like it. And by the way, the first thing he said, because he saw, I was ramping up to say it. He was like, I spoke to that lady, you came and got your credit card. He goes, that was not supposed to happen. He said, I am so sorry,

because that was terrible. I heard all about it. Meanwhile, he goes, so listen, he goes, you have to

What are you saying? He goes, no, that sounds so much worse. He goes, you won't even know. I'm like,

okay, but I did wind up hobbling over to Emmett's ungrow for some thin crust pizza on Friday night. And when I walked in the restaurant, this veil went over my left eye. And it was, it was much darker. And I was like, wait a minute, it's set on, it's set on the fact sheet that if a veil goes over your eye, you endanger girl. And I texted the doctor and he was like, it's your brain and your eye, trying to figure out the shift in the light in this dim restaurant. And it didn't go away until

the next morning. So that was a little freaky. But I had a very quiet family morning and, you know, my brain is just readjusting my lighting. But I have to say that whole night, I was thinking, if my eye goes, and they have to put a glass eye in, and then they read it my right eye.

“And I just had my right eye. Do you think people would watch me on TV if I had a glass eye?”

Maybe they could make it straight. Make my eye go straight. Maybe, I look better. It might, it might. But I was like, I was moving around a lot during the thing. And you sounded like the world's worst patient. It sounds like it. It does. But I've done everything. I'm putting the drops in my eye. I'm sleeping with this glass shield. I'm not glass, this plastic shield. On top of my eye that I have to tape on my mouth. I'm surprised it will brace you when you're getting

that surgery. Hey, you. My head. Did have things on the sides. But apparently, I was surprised enough. But I'm going to find out tomorrow. I can't wait to get my other idea. Yeah, I bet. You know, and I'm, yeah, I can't wait to get mine. Well, you don't have cataract, babe. I want to get

lacyk, but I can't get lacyk. The only solution is a refractive lens or whatever, which is basically

“cataract surgery. Oh, really? Do you think people would watch me if I had a glass eye?”

I bet they would. If I have a, if I have a, you know, crossed exactly would watch me with a glass eye, I guess. Um, I look better. Yeah. Ben, we showed Ben the original Willie Wonka over the weekend. Oh, what do you think you can't see that Jordan? It's kind of scary. I don't think they have. I think I tried. I really recommend that. No, go. They trippy. You know, by the way, I used to be so scared at that scene in the boat where Gene Wilder is like, "And up and down we go." And round, you know,

I mean, it's, yeah. He starts talking super trippy. Yeah. And also, I mean, the kid in the pipe, I was, I was terrified of this gloop suffocating and whatever, Ben was not scared. And then the next day was like, I was a little scared when they went in that boat, Daddy. I'm like, "Oh, okay."

“But he was, can I always tell if the kid is gay or straight by how they react to Varucus salt?”

Oh, he was not up for her. He was not like, diva. He was like, she won't shut up. She's terrible. He got, but you know what? Also, there are so many lessons in that movie. I mean, all the kids who don't obey, something terrible happens to them. And then he was like, "I am so glad Charlie gave the gob stop her back, Daddy." He goes, "He really did the right thing." And he's like, "And he got the chocolate factory." Like, he did the guy gave him the chocolate factory.

So he understood, it was really good that there were so many lessons to learn. So, you know, my boy has empathy. I got to tell you, Ben Cohen has empathy. So, there you go. So he's not a psychopath or a sociopath. He's not either. He has empathy. Great. He really does. That's a relief. No, it is, right? Yeah. Can you imagine they thought I was going to want to listen to Maroon 5 while I get

laser shot. I don't think they're wondering about it. I don't think they're worried about it. You know, they weren't. I'm just like, this is not, they're not, they're it's not a spa. They're not thinking about your experience. Well, they're trying to guess clearly they're not when the gal comes to get my credit card. I mean, no thank you, ma'am.

I am, I'm just stunned by what's happening with my eye though. I just, yeah, it's incredible.

It is modern medicine. I mean, I all surgery like that. I had my meniscus repaired and it hurt to walk. It hurt to walk around my apartment and I, you know, run and all over the place. Yes. Um, my, my T, I still have sutures in my mouth from smile taxes. Oh my God, when do you get those?

Yeah. I got really misty. Did you see my RHOC 20th? Oh, yeah. You know, I started with,

“I meant to watch it later with the sound on. I was, I couldn't listen to it.”

But would I really got cute? I, I, thanks to Mike Robley. We kind of, we engineered that together. That's awesome. It, uh, I got really misty on Saturday. I texted Laurie, Peter's, Laurie, wearing Peterson and, um, I texted all the producers from the, it was the anniversary of the premier date. Was the anniversary of the premier day? That's Sherry Levine,

Doug Ross, Alex Baskin, and Kathleen French. It's like happy 20th anniversary. I mean,

it's wild. It is wild that it's been 20 years. Um, and yes, um, oh, I did want to say, you know, housewives of Miami. There's so much. Yeah, you got a lot of heat. Talk about, I did, you know, I get the credit and I get the blame. Right. And I will say this was not my decision. And by the way, look, I'm an EP on all these shows. If it was up to me, they would be rolling all the time. And I mean, it's not better for me. It's just, but yes, exactly. Thank you, John.

That happens a lot. And so, yes, it, it is. And so, and, and I, and frankly, I'm happy that

people are so passionate about it. And I hope they tell their friends to watch. This is a ratings game after all. And, um, you know, on that note, I'm, I'm going to go all the way down to the mat for this season of the real housewives of Beverly Hills. I will accept no, slagging off of this season of the real housewives of Beverly Hills. I absolutely love it. We are all thrilled with the season. It is the number one housewives of all of them. It is a great

fun watch. It has drama. It has humor. It's fun. It has personal story. It has glamour. And I absolutely love it. Um, I was a little surprised. It was a clip that was posted. I texted Tim over the weekend, because I guess page six page six radio interviewed Sarah Michelle. I saw this. It was right after she was on our show. Yeah, I like it. And then she went on the show and she was like, no. And it was in our studio. And then they posted. And it's like Sarah Michelle Gowler hates the housewives

Beverly Hills with all this radio and designage everywhere. And I go, you know what, don't bring

“someone into my studio to trash my show. How about the door is locked when I leave? How's that?”

So, you know, maybe or maybe think twice about posting that all over social media where it says like Andy everywhere behind SMG. Um, she wrong, by the way. So, uh, I will say that if you've seen by the way, tonight, I will suggest that you jump ahead and watch miss week's episode of Beverly Hills. Okay. Oh, I want to. Oh, yeah. Um, anyway, I did just want to say that as well. Tuesday, March 24th, 2026. Hi, John. I'm buying underwear. Do you like those?

Yeah, who makes those? Super. Say I don't know. Super doop. Super doop is super morning. Good morning. Good morning. New eye. New eye.

“Let's get you a new attitude too. Well, we're at it. You know what? How dare you? How dare you?”

Do you get yet? No. I haven't gotten a cat yet. I have not gotten a cat yet, but it sounds, I mean, my nanny is drawing a hard line in the sand about the cat, but we'll see. I will see. Yeah. I don't want to have course have to choose between a kitty and a nanny. Well, you're the nanny needs to say. Yes. My cat can wait. We were kind of brainstorming cat names a little bit. And I mean, if Lucy pretends to be a cat named Larry, doesn't my cat name need to be called Larry?

Yeah. I mean, there's no question. But will that then create confusion if she's still going to cosplay as a cat, and then it's with Larry talking to. Hopefully, I should get a help over here. Once

to me as her owner outside of the apartment because of all of the, you know, they were in the

Hampton. Ben now is her trainer. She's like my trainer, and he trains her, and he's like the other word. He's like, okay, Lucy, do the cockroach. She lays on her back. She hurls down to the ground, lays on her back and puts her legs and hands in the air like a cockroach on their back. He's like, okay, now dead cockroach. And then she gets on her side and she's dead. He's like, okay, now you're

“fine. Now you're just a kitty. I'm like, Ben, you're a good trainer. That's what's going on”

of my house at seven in the morning. It's so cute. It's entertaining. It is. It's so cute. Now, John, I'm curious your thoughts on this. Yeah. The Justin Timberlake DUI videos released over the weekend. I have not watched it. They were playing an unsmissisters. I watched it. I kind of turned it down. I'm upset by it. Why are you upset by it? I just think it's like this guy at his lowest moment. Right. And then I was thinking, well, how's any paid for his crime? But then I'm like,

did he have to do anything for it? Well, what do you think? I thought you stood up for him prematurely in the first place. I think like your reaction or what is going to be your reaction. But for me, like drunk driving across the board, you do it. You run the risk of being humiliated in public scale. You know there are body cams on cops. You could, you probably will hurt someone if not yourself. Look at all the times we have seen this. And there, look at all the cautionary

tales, Shannon Bador, Karen Hugo. There are endless public DUIs. And so I don't, I was always

puzzled why you would say like, Oh, come on. No, I'm not excusing the call. No, I know. But like, you, that's what you get. Like, I know. This is something where I was just like, it's pretty humiliating.

“But I think like that's what people need to see. Unfortunately, it's not like someone,”

by the way, is there where there are any headlines from that video that I missed? They're pretty, they're all pretty sad. They're really embarrassing. He doesn't come across as like, oh, wow, this like awesome heroic, real role model. But he wasn't being like cocky with them or anything like that. I mean, there was a, a really hint of it. You know, what are you doing? Why I'm on a world tour. And like, imagine being a cop who doesn't recognize him. I don't know if

they did or not. But they're like, what? Like, he sounds like an idiot. He sounds like an idiot. Yeah, the way you have to literally be like, he was polite. No one knows you and just be like, I'm a singer. And he was very polite. He wasn't, he wasn't an asshole. But he was, there wasn't, you know, the word you use was what? But then I read on page six that when they said that he's

white, yeah, he tried to make a joke. That's always kind of funny. Yeah, he was trying to be funny.

He was like, what do you mean, I'm white? I'm just kidding. Oh, oh my God. Oh, okay. Listen, I'm not. I did talk to try to do the, the field security test and it reminded me of Wendy McClendon coming on Reno 911. It was kind of like that. Because they were given him Corio. They were like, no, you're going to put your right foot here that you're going to do a pivot turn when you reach the end. Like, really? And with Justin, like, I got it. Well, he was drunk and confused. And he didn't get it.

I was surprised though. I thought his choreography, bye, bye, bye brain was going to kick in and drunk or not. He was going to be able to walk that line too. But the more direction they gave him, the more confused he got. Because he was drunk. Yeah. Well, the, the narrative and the media was like, oh, you know what, he had some wine. And this was a sting operation. They said him a this bitch was wasted. Yeah. He was drunk. Right. I don't, I don't like anybody to be humiliated.

But I, I like that the cops got hit. I, I, I, I wrote that. I, I'm not. And I do not want one piece of listener mail. I want to be clear. I am not defending. Of course not, driver. Okay. Yeah. I don't know what you mean. Like, I did see a lot of responses. Like, why do we need to publicly humiliate this person? And I just am kind of like, I don't know. Right. Maybe, because it's a, it's a teachable moment for people who might in that moment say, oh, you know what, I'll just

“I'll just drive. It's just a few blocks. They'll remember seeing how embarrassing this is. Right,”

right, right, right, right. And it'll help, they'll keep someone safe. Right. Um, so I still haven't

call recovery. Yes. I did watch the first episode of Love Story. Yeah, I liked it. I mean, I understand

“the appeal. Yeah. Um, I mean, I didn't consider it. It was like good and bad. Yeah. I think they're”

very good. I like her. Oh, yeah, I liked her. I liked her. Yeah, I liked her. I like, yeah, you think they're stuffed to spans in that one shot in the locker room? I didn't see that. Oh, my eyes. My eyes. You

could see that from a million miles away. I don't know. I remember the locker room scene where

he's time up flunking the locker. Just keep just a second. I will say, I spoke to someone who is not Carol Radswell, but someone who was very good friends with Carolyn Beset and who was very much in that world who was saying, you know, this thing is based on, like, Michael Bergen's book and one other person's book. And she was like, you know, anyone who really knew them would know, not to say a word and that, you know, just that this is not, they would not have wanted

this, you know. Um, so anyway, I loved all the Calvin Klein stuff. I've got the Calvin Klein guy

was good. And it just, I understand the appeal and watching it and feeling, I want to see the 90s

“in New York, which was I was very much here during that time. I think I've told the story about”

flying with JFK Jr to from LA and that he bummed to cigarette from me. Yes. Oh, wow. I mean, that's elephant tightest of the penis. What is that? Is that a tube sock? Yeah, he does. Eggplant. Okay. That's huge. Very nice. Um, I have markedly decreased my Amazon usage since like I am barely ordering off of Amazon and I started a Costco account. Oh, good. I love Costco. And I now ordering off of Costco, but I am also finding myself just going to CVS if I need something.

We're going to grow farmers. Go to grow farm villages. Yeah, it's better. Going, I went to bigalows over the weekend pharmacy. Like I am going to bookstores. I had my local bookstore order me a book that I was looking for. So it is possible to not buy everything on Amazon. And I have to say it feels good. Yes. All of this feels good. Being off the phone less is good. Yes. Someone was renting a Jonah Hill movie on my account yesterday, my prime Amazon. You know,

hard it is to call someone and again, and I won't do any accents, but when you call them, it's a whole thing. And it's like, they canceled. They refunded it in our later. Thank you for renting war dogs. Let's just go. I called them back, refunded it again. And our later, I said,

“what do you need to reset your password? And they were like, but is it coming from my TV?”

I don't know. They don't know either. It was really weird. I hate Amazon. Is it that prostitute that was staying at your old apartment? Oh, it might be no, my TV now. It's okay. All right. He's still, he's so good looking. Um, I was obsessed when I was recovering. Also, with there were stories about the lighting on the vanity fair party red carpet. And I saw it. It was, oh my god. And then the New York Post had a slideshow of like Chris Jenner, Lauren Sanchez,

all these people who looked so botched under the vanity fair lights. Like they were, it was really bad lighting. It was like a gallery of terrible photos. Yeah. And of course,

you went, you, you want your red carpet photos to look amazing. Yeah. But he looked so bad. I had

a little chuckle. I got to tell you. I love it. It gave me a little spring and my stuff. I don't know why, but by the way, there, but for the grace of God, I could have been there. Um, so what? I love that shot of, uh, Lauren posing. And then Nicole Kidman walks behind her on the on Nicole Kidman is like,

I have to say, I really am, like, unthreads. People are just coming after Mayor Mumbani every day.

And it's all people who don't live in New York. And I'm going to tell you something about this Mayor. Nothing has changed. Right. Since. And I wouldn't expect anything to change. It's been three months. So like, all these people who are posting pictures of like trash day in New York City or snow on the sidewalk, and they're like, look at New York now, whatever. So just FYI, nothing has happened. And that's not a slam to the mayor. It's just for y'all to know, you, this ain't it. Whatever you're

trying to pin on him, well, these are racist Islamophobic people who just want to excuse to

be Islamophobic and racist and mean and hateful. Yes. Now let me say this about the first lady of New York

City. She, it has been discovered, posted, terrible things on her Twitter. Um, and I just wish Mumbani would have kind of been able to come out and be like, yeah, that was bad. But by the way, so I didn't realize how young she is. She 27 or she like 30, she's very young. So this stuff that was posted was posted apparently when she was like 15 years old. It was the anti is so right anti is real stuff. But she wrote the N word. What? Faggin? No. Yes. She wrote really bad stuff. So she, it was when

“she was, I think, 15. So she could also say, hey, I should have said. And what she should have said”

was, yeah, this was horrible. And I was 15 and trust and believe that I blew my lesson, whatever. But also on October 7th, she posted that the rapes committed on October 7th were a hoax. And you know what? That ain't it. Yeah. That ain't it. So and he just couldn't, he was like, well, she's a private citizen and done it. It's like, you know what? Grow a pair of knots and just say, yeah, that was bad. That was all bad. And some of it she was 15 and some of it she wasn't. And so I was

annoyed with him that he couldn't like grow a pair and say that just to say, if it was Melanie

“Trump, we would all be going mental. Let me just say that. Yeah. Jordan, did you find out how old she is?”

Yeah, 20 it. Yeah. Okay. So she's very young. She's an idiot. Let me say this. Cap drivers in now, just to let me continue racking on different things and sounding like a 90 year old. Cap drivers in New York City used to ride themselves. When you would get in a cab, John, do you remember this time? When you would get in a cab and say, I'm going to the fancy and bus. Yes. Now you got to give them the address. The cab drivers would be like, they know exactly

where to go. And they know the shortest cut. Yeah. They were trained and they were really proud of it. It was, they were really proud of it. Now you cannot get in a cab without them putting it in GPS.

And let me say this, GPS is not always right. No. So I was reaming my cab. Oh,

Gracie Ella, who has lived in New York City since the day she was born. When she came to pick me up from my eye surgery, the guy took the west side of highway instead of the FDR and he went all the way up and then over and down. Cross was like, what are you do? She was going mental. But these guys, they don't know. They don't know. And it's sad. I'm getting off my phone. I'm taking a trip and

“leaving my phone at home. I'm my next era of life is anti-tech anti-AI because I will walk one”

block and I will GPS it. It is ridiculous. We're dependent on GPS. Right. I don't need to know, but we're addicted to knowing, oh, it's going to take five minutes. Let me budget five minutes. You know how long it's going to take to walk to 14th from 16th. Right. But for some reason,

slaves to the GPS. Yes. I'm sick of it. It's so bad. It's making us very stupid, too.

“So stupid. Oh, God. That's what, that's one of the things I liked about the JFK Jr thing.”

Yes. No phones. No phones. You know. Yeah. If you would have told me at 16, when you're in your late 40s, you're going to be staring at this little device all day, instead of listening to music and playing with your friends and going out and having fun,

I would have laughed in your face and I would have been like, well, that was always bad.

Yeah, that was always the Jetsons. That's what they said. But bad news on the Jetsons, it looked kind of fun. I mean, this is miserable. We were face-timing the other day, Ben and I and Ben goes, Daddy, can you believe we can do this? Right. This kid is so amazing. He goes, can you believe I can see you right now? And I said, Ben, I'm so glad you realized it up because when I was little, there was no such thing as a picture phone where we could look at each other.

All right. We thought that was the easiest idea. Never happened. Yeah. They would say, you can do, you'll do video phones. Right. You sure were like, never. Now we can never gonna happen. But Ben is obsessed with the little kid, the cowboy and Charlie and the chocolate factory who I get in the TV and all the particles. And I go Ben, do you think when I get on TV,

I'm divided into a million particles and then shot into the TV, he goes, I bet you are, Daddy,

I bet you are. Um, all right. John, have you read anymore or listen to any more to the lights a book? Yeah. I'm on chapter 4 now. Oh, really? She's met Peter Rowland. She has, oh, wow. There's a lot's that's happened. How is it? Are you a good, I am into it. I'm going to finish it. I am into it. Definitely the problem back to the AI of it all of the performance by this robot Liza is that everything there is no dynamic. There is no emotion. It is all the same. So she's like,

and then I book this thing on Broadway. And then Mama Slider-Riss and blood was everywhere. Spurton and explode and intervenes were here. And then I mopped it up and then I went back to Broadway. It's all one level. So it's like, and there was blood everywhere. Mom tried to kill herself.

“And then I met Peter. Like, it's, you have to do a lot of work to go. Oh, that was maybe, uh,”

Hush tone. No way. And then she's sliced her. I'm exaggerating. But like, and this took all these pills. But there were no pills like that. It's just all the same level. And I think with a human being, you would get down, you would slow it down. You would slow it down. You would slow it down. You would slow it down. I mean, Barbara gave us every highs and lows.

Peaks and values. Do you agree, Jordan? You know, when I first started listening to it,

it didn't dawn on me that it might be AI. And then we talked about it. And then when I started listening, I was so obvious. And it's so, it made me sad or like, well, it's a real deal. Howvious. But like, I think to your point, yeah, it's one level. And it does not. It does just seem a little, I mean, it's so, I think, instead of thinking, oh, this is a replacement for the real lies,

“I think, oh, I'm being read to by a robot. And the robot has been given a little lies of flare.”

Yeah. That way, I can make it through. That's fine. But don't try this. Tell me that's lies. Don't try to pretend. I mean, this is a robot. She's still leaving those G's off. Oh, there's not one G in the book. Wow. That is crazy. I gotta find the print version and see. Oh, there's no way. I've had a couple, but not not all of them. There's too many. You know what? I also did. I re-listened to chapter two. And I counted every time she said mama.

And you want to guess how many time she said it? Okay. It's about an hour of audio. I'm going to guess 55. John. 250. She said it 95 times. And I might have missed a couple, because I am not an A about A, I robot, but 95 times. I mean, it's deep where I'm at. She's talking about her and mama have had a lot of experiences where a competitive and being on stage and like that whole story, like, you know, she heard her in the wings and like get her the fuck off my stage and it goes on stage

with her. It's just everybody complains about their mom, but like that's next level. Wow. And she was 17, 18, like getting record deals, booking Broadway shows, and she was having to deal with such emotional terrorism at such a young age. Like I have a lot of compassion for her. I mean, Judy was only how old when she died. Yeah, she was 48. I mean, why couldn't Judy just get it together? She was Judy, you know? Yeah. So sad. I think she had a lot of rage at the

Hollywood. She was a victim of the system. She was back with more from this week's Daddy Diaries

What a glorious morning, Han John. It is so nice. My dog is happy. You can finally poop. Yes. My children are happy. Ben took what he reported is the biggest poop of his life. This morning. There's a lot of competition for him. Yeah. Well, he pooped a lot. What do you know about that? I just feel like

as a kid, aren't you always just pooping as so? Good morning, everybody. I woke up at 5 a.m. this

morning to greet the day, couldn't fall back asleep. It was a, it was a rough one. But it sure is pretty out. It really, really is. Even if it's cold, the sun being out is so nice. Now, Jordan as we know, grabs my scooped out bagel with egg whites at toasties. And as now added, John's bagel with eggs and bacon to her order. And now, she's getting your ice coffee as well. It's a game changer. Thank you so much, Jordan. Sitting with ya. It's actually really refreshing and tasty and it saves me $3 from going to the

“cafeteria where I want to buy a black cherry sweeps. And Jordan is it impacting you in any way?”

Not the only problem is toasties doesn't have a non-dairy milk to add. So I have to stop in

no, don't do that. It shouldn't get a splash of almond milk which I don't mind doing. I can have dairy milk. Oh, you can. Oh, this is okay. So you just preferred non-dairy milk. When I can, yeah. But I'm not strict about it. Okay, well listen, I don't want to, you know, I don't want you to go or anything. Oh, well, that's already going to be happening. So milk is not going to change. By the way, do you choose the speaking of your very specific and fancy dietary, Roman milk is not that fancy?

Oh, at this point. Did you see the pictures floating around the interwebs of Mariah Carey at Aeroon? I haven't seen that. Okay. So it was on to more like spotted Mariah Carey at Aeroon. And she's all made up in black like pushing an empty cart through Aeroon. Yeah. And I was like, oh, this is like Sponka. Sure. Well, she probably has a smoothie coming out. Oh, The Haley Beaver was a huge deal. That like really,

“I mean, so do you think, so I'm just wondering, do you think Mariah Carey was like paid to go to Aeroon?”

Or she has a collab with them coming up. Yeah, I don't know, paid, but there's a picture of some fan with her at Aeroon. Yeah. Yeah. See, you know, which Aeroon is it, does it say? I don't know. We, oh, okay. So it's brand new. That's the brand new one. Oh, so maybe. Yeah. I mean, does Aeroon, I mean, I understand that everything there is like $50. So it's I was going to ask, do they have the money to be paying for Mariah Carey? Yes. They do. Yes. They do.

It's famous because it's so expensive, but it was the closest grocery store to me in LA. So I went every day and I had a way of doing it cheap. If you buy the normal things, if you're buying the $20 single Japanese strawberry, yes, you're stupid. By the way, the head of NBC Universal, every year at Christmas sends me this very fancy toffee that is in my freezer. And I, you know, it takes me, frankly, about a year to eat it because I don't, you know, I don't indulge myself with

it that much. But, you know, yesterday I was like getting my stuff together to leave for my show. And I walked by and my nanny seemed to be finishing the box. It's in my heart. It goes time to get more toffee. Oh, I go, oh, I go my boss sent me that as a Christmas gift. She goes where you can, you can find it online. I'm like, all right. When are you going to get on the Tom Cruise Coconut

Cake List? I mean, Tom Cruise ain't never sending me a coconut cake. But, you know, it's all right.

I just wanted to note, Mariah Carey walked around Erin one with an empty cart for a while. Yeah,

“that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Your cart was empty. If it had been the studio”

city one or even the one on Beverly, it might have been she was shopping, but this seems like an appearance. I love her why I do miss it. Did you catch the clips that the today show released today? I saw that this morning. I saw this morning. Oh, my God. She just hearing her and she was like,

in the middle of the night in despair. Sure. Thinking of her mother being taken in the night. I mean,

“she's gone. I can't imagine. Where is she? Where is she? I just to such a big deal. I think of the”

big things, the big stories, the big crimes that have penetrated the zeitgeist, you know, JFK. You know, all the, like, this is, I honestly feel like it is one of those big mysteries. Like this is Jimmy Hoffa level. Yes. No, this is major. I agree. Now, something else, doesn't make sense on the today show today. You know, they do those smuckers birthday wishes for 100 years. I have not seen that. Oh, for 100. Your alerts got used to do them. Guess who turned 100 today. William Schatner. No,

Gene Schatlett. Oh, she's still in there. She's still alive. And she's got all gray hair with a gray mustache. I would hope. Eliza sent it to me. And, you know, who else shares a birthday today with Gene Schatlett? Sarah Jessica. It's in my calendar. It popped up. Very sweet. Birds of a feather, Gene Schatlett. I know. I mean, well, they both have great movies. Yeah. Yes. They're both kind of old school. Yeah. Classy. Classy. Yeah. Um, anyway. So happy birthday, SJ. SJ. Happy birthday, Mr. Schatlett.

Talk to me through a knot in my necklace the other day. Oh, really? I don't want to get it. My friend gave me a very thin gold chain for my five years. And I had it on. I had taken it off just because I don't like to whatever. Right. It had the, it's a very thin chain and it had a teeny tiny knot in it. It was making me so mad. I was getting angry. And I was trying and it just was making it worse. And so I said, you know, what did your voice notice? Yes. She had sent me to this jewelry repair place

for my ring resizing. I was like, listen, I'm about to kill someone. Right. What do I do? Is there some old wives tale about how to rub some soap on? Like, how do I get this knot out? Or do I take it back to this place? And she left me to very detailed, very sweet. She's on spring break. She has a

respond to that. She was like, I'm sorry for the tardiness. She's like, but here's what you do and

like talking through it. And then by the time did it work? I, I would, I don't know because I had gotten so angry that you had to put it. I had my big man purse with me and my Uber and I stood on the dog and I looked for it yesterday to revisit it and I can't find it. So I may have just thrown it in. I know. It's in there somewhere, like, but I got so, it was because it's a teeny, my little,

“my big hands and I can't see because I need Jerry, you need to bring the drill to you. Yes,”

little Lucy, my little kitty cat can do it. I wanted to bring up one of those people at six flags who write your name on a grain of rice, like, who know how to deal with small things. Lucy, is so funny. Did I tell you, I mean, did I tell you about our dinner the other night? I was trying to teach her tiktok toe at dinner. No, but you don't have good luck with teaching people to tiktok. Yeah. Well, as we see on Bravo with squares on lunch with Evan's life, but I was like,

we were at a little our family dinner and Ben got this little portable tiktok toe with felt on it at this birthday party in the goody bag and I was teaching her and when I tell you, I was like, Lucy, three in a row, tiktok toe. Now you try and I like let her win every game and she put it in the wrong thing and I was like, I'm beginning to think you're like, not like, what is going on here? She's so young. I'm afraid. I'm going to talk to her teacher. We have a teacher conference tomorrow,

but like you can't get in the habit of being like what's wrong with you? No, I'm not. No, excuse me. I didn't. And I know, but your mind said it will come. No, but I will say Ben Ben's like, guess my second favorite food to you, note to the table. Okay. So we're guessing because he's like, you know, it's

“first favorite food. Yes, it's like, I don't even remember what it is. First favorite food is like”

burgers or something like he's like, you're never going to guess my second favorite food. So we're

like it. So I'm guessing it's really just I'm guessing. And then Lucy goes, hot water and then goes, Lucy, what does he says her name was such a theft and weight? He sounds like my mother. He's like,

let's go back to the TikTok to Lucy. Anyway, so I did figure out her birthday party is going to be a candy-themed birthday party at this candy store and no cats allowed, no cats. And so yesterday, I said to Darren, find me a lollipop cake. So she, I go find me a lollipop cake or a kitty cat cake. So she found four cakes. She goes, it's between these four cakes. So I, I go, Lucy, we have to pick a cake.

So she said, okay, so I show her this, the first cake. I go, there's four choices. I showed her

the first cake. She goes, I want that one. Show her the second one. She goes, I want that one. Show her the, I'm like, she wanted every, I go, no, we're picking one. So every time I showed her, it was like, I go, okay. So of course, I chose the one that I think she really wanted the most. It is, you know, specialty cakes. Yeah, Jordan. Yeah. Are they like, they're expensive. Even if you want

“just hundreds of special tea cake from Billy's bakery, it's like 150 bucks. Yeah, that's why my kids”

get a Betty Crocker. Right. I love a Betty Crocker. I love a sheet cake. I prefer that kind of cake.

Or grocery store cake. Never misses. Me too. Um, anyway, so, all right, I found the cake.

I got Lucy. So I don't know if Lucy's going to be able to help you with that necklace is the thing. Ben made me this clay paper clip holder for my dust. That is so cute. He's like, Daddy, he goes, it's kind of a cute little porcupine. I was like, well, how did I, how did you ever make that? He goes, Daddy, it's like clay. And I put those racers under it and some googly eyes. And that's the porcupine. I'm like, oh, okay. Well, now I feel stupid for asking. But, um, he announced to me yesterday

during, oh, no, that, uh, he would like to be a gas station attendant when he grows up. Hey, that's cool. And I go, well, okay, I said I was kind of hoping for an architect. I go, well, why do you want to do that? He goes, it just looks so fun to be able to do that. Would it kill you to say, like,

“well, Ben, that's so fun. I bet you'd be really good at that and leave it. Do you have to start”

grooming him to feel inadequate right now? I'm a daddy. Um, and I go, anyway, so he's ugly. His daddy goes, well, you know, Ben, when you get a car, you can attend it yourself. Yes, you don't need to have it. We can all just play as a tenant. He's like, she goes, you don't need to have it as a job. You can do it whenever your car needs gas. And I have to say, he goes, oh, he was like, that's a good point. He didn't realize that. But that was kind of funny. It was a good point. Oh, my Lord.

So last night, we had two shows. We had two watch with up and slives. Now, it was my first time

back in the studio with my new eyes. And what's happening is my left eye is my great eye. And boy, I am looking right now out of window on the 36 floor. I see a boat going by on the water. You do? Yes,

“now let me look in my right eye. See, my right eye just sees hash basically. You think that's what”

is hash? Just blur, not, you know, it's like the idea of the river. Um, but not the river and I don't know. I do not see a boat going by. I see it. I see New Jersey. No, man. I see a wait a minute. There's someone celebrating with some Pinyoli cookies. Oh, it's Theresa June. I celebrating a picking up the housewives of Jersey. I can see Russia from my backyard. Yeah. Anyway, so I've got my great left eye in which everything is still little blue. And my bum right eye

with my soft contact lens. A. I am now far-sighted in my left eye. I was near-sighted. I'm now far-sighted. I mean, you can see. So the issue is that the words on the screen right here. I can't see. I need reading glass. You want me to tell you who's calling? No. It's fine. But it's so that's something. And then the other thing that's happening at Watch What Up and Zive is that for the first show we did, I went in the control room after and I said to Rocco,

I'm reading the prompter only with my left eye. And he said, oh my god, he goes, I thought you were

going to do about this solution? Well, I'm getting my right eye done because I went back to the

“doctor yesterday for another checkup. Now the new development and both of the doctors looked at my”

eye, the young protege who operated on my eye. And the rough elder statesman doctor, they both looked at my eye and were just lots of adaboys about what a great job they did and what great, you know, what great shape my left eye is in. But now we have to deal with my right eye. And a due development is I think I'm falling in love with the young protege I doctor shocking. He is so handsome.

He's so kind to me. He texted me a tick-tock yesterday about how Monet's look with new eyes post

cataract like he's and, you know, he's not wearing a ring. He's lovely. I want you to meet him. He's my new boyfriend. Okay. He's so cute. He's very cute. Anyway, just so you know,

“that's what's happening with my eyes. I'm looking, I may get my cataract surgery on May 7,”

but I'm supposed to an accept and award that night, but I'm thinking I could just hobble to the award ceremony that night and accept the award with my post surgery. The veil over everything. Yeah, maybe a bad idea, but I don't know. Turn it into a bitch. Be like, hey, I can't see what this award is, but thank you. Maybe I'll go with a bedazzled punch patch. Patrick from Chicago. Hey, just wanted to say congratulations on the commencement announcement. Oh, yes, Washington University

announced that I will be their speaker for this year's commencement. I will be speaking in front of

“10,000 people at the football stadium at Washoe now. You may or may not realize I grew up”

down the street from Washoe in St. Louis. My mom is a Washoe graduate. I sister got her masters at Washoe. As is Patrick from Chicago and not only that, but to really close this loop, guess who is graduating from Washoe this year? Your niece? No. Straight Dave and Alley's daughter is graduating from Washoe. So I will be speaking at the graduation of my beloved college roommates.

That's so cool. Is it that full circle? Amazing. Yeah, really is. And when I went to that Washoe bar

last month with straight Dave, so many people were coming up to me saying, I'm manifesting that you're going to speak at our graduation. And I of course knew at the time. And I was I loved it. It was so sweet. So I'm I'm really excited about this. Now I just have to write the speech. So I have spring break in a week and that's my goal for spring break to write the speech. How long does that to be? Like 10 minutes. You can do it. Yeah. All right. Congrats. Thanks, Patrick.

Bye. Steve from Chicago. Hey Andy, how are you doing? John, good to hear you this morning. So Andy, you brought up Jersey. So we saw your show at Marge said she's moving on. Yeah, but you know, she's still part of the whole, you know, family or still beyond TV. But do you have any information as far as who else other than Teresa, Dolores and Melissa will be part of Jersey. Do we see any repeats from racial food on Danielle and John Fessler? Well, these kind of

make it some appearances on Bravo as of late or we expect to maybe a little Kim D visitation. Of the old guard, the people that you can expect to see are Teresa Dolores and Melissa. And there really no other announcements yet. But we have a great group and this has been a journey. This has been a journey. We have gone through this has been a long and winding road to get us to this place. And I'm very excited. Thanks, Steve. Leave from Orlando. Hi guys. Hi. Hey, I'm a St. Louis girl too.

I live in Orlando now and even my daughter applied there. She was top 3% of her high school class and she

did it get in. Yeah. It's truly like a stellar academic play. Now, this is my watch for you. But Sandy, you're fantastic. I totally think you're going to do great. Hopefully you stay. Well, I mean, won't that be for you to find out? Okay. All right. Well, I mean, Leo, you vote of no confidence from Leon Orlando. Not true, Andy.

“100% confidence. You're fantastic. However, maybe you should consider a speech writer.”

Oh, no. Yeah. I dare you. I mean, five time New York Times best seller. Oh, that's true.

Yeah. I mean, you're like, you don't really do it. Like, well, like, yeah, some consider me brilliant. This bitch can write. Well, I hope we get to hear it. Well, you will. She's like, maybe on the radio. Well, here that you're brilliant because we're not. I just, I just made me a little nervous. Yeah. I understand you're making yourself very clearly. Like, does everybody know this is a huge honor? Yes. Thank you. Oh, my, I know faintly people know that, but I need the world to know that.

Okay. Thank you, Leo. Thank you. Okay. Bye. Well, now. I mean, I think I have to go poo.

Oh, again. No. Are we doing this? Oh, go. Can you check their location? Oh, you know, I did not even think of it because also, by the way, I've already yesterday went and bought a new pair of earpods. How many is this now? Nine. Oh, boy. Okay. So my, oh. It says there at home. Oh, God. Damn it. That fucking Ben Cohen. I mean, I bet you. He took them. Well, he doesn't want those. Well, I'm on my find. Did you ever find that watch? I gave him with a whistle in it.

Should I see where Anderson is? Oh, he's at home. Um, the watch with the whistle is still in the box that we hit it in. Listen, if you can take the whistle, I still, you know, I would love for him to love something that I provided. Now CAA for Christmas sent me a Nintendo switch, which I have hidden because I'm not allowing Ben to have that. If Ben knew that I had that, it would be from seeing over. Maybe I'll take the switch. Um, save it for a near plane ride. Oh, absolutely not. No. No,

he's no, he's not getting a video game for years. Oh, absolutely not. No, no, no, no, no, no. Although that could go to a friend's house and play a video game, but no, absolutely not. No way. No. I think it can be good for them. A certain video games can be good for their brains. They don't want to be what's the word, uh, held back. Like the advancements of video games are kind of important sometimes. Yeah. I, like I would like to play video games now, but I've been playing for 30 years, so I feel

done. You can play with yourself. I do plenty of that. Yeah, I'm sure. I do the reverse. We have an Nintendo Switch, and he gets limited game time at home, but if he goes to a friend's house,

“I say no video games. Oh, really, that's why it's that. Because you're in my play. Use your”

imagination. Oh, video games. Oh, they do games from my first addiction. They first, my life became

old. Oh, and now you're telling me. Great. Well, I was so Ben can handle it. Well, who knows? We don't know. I'm not giving him no, no, no, no. Absolutely not. No. He watches this show. He's watching his first like live action sitcom. It's one of those Dan Schneider shows. Nickelodeon, a Nickelodeon show. It's like Captain Danger or something or it's about that. Harvey, Harvey, Henry Danger or something. It's about like this guy superhero and his son. It's a sitcom. Ben thinks it is so funny.

I want I need to show them the Brady Bunch. Yeah. Where is the Brady Bunch? TV land? Does that turn out to us? I don't know. I don't have paramount plus and I ain't get. I don't have that shitty. So maybe I'll buy it on Amazon that I'm buying something on Amazon. I mean, yeah, it's on paramount

All right. Very good. Well, I will do that. So now we know what's up with Jordan and our

testies. Tonight's Beverly Hills is very good. Did you see tonight's episode? No, but I am going to jump in toward now that is ramping up toward the end. Start watching. Right. That's when I start. I have been late with this episode that is airing tonight. Absolutely. Yeah. Because what happens is Erica Jane gets activated now. When? Oh, see? I thought I just saw a mouse camper. Oh, my.

“No, you did that. That's what it is. It's a floater. It's a floater in my eye. I'm still seeing”

a floaters. My God. Um, anyway, one thing is I will say this. I would not want to be on the other end of Erica Jane. Mm. Getting activated. Oh, hell, no. I would not. I would not. I've

only been on her good side and it's a lovely place to be. Me too. Me too. Um, so anyway, y'all

got him. Should we get into a little listener mail before he comes because we didn't finish. John, do you have it there? I have it right here. Let's do it. Listener mail. Do you want to hear a cat letter? No. Okay. Kelly Howard just watched the Maddie and Joe episode, loving your casual looks and watch Reppens Live. Love the bandana less. Okay. Well, Rebecca from Charleston, South Carolina, Andy, how could you do this to me? Question mark,

“pausing Miami? Could you share some positive news to give us hope we'll see Miami Queen's again?”

Just a pause. Arlin, hi. Recently in the radio was mentioned that Jordan lives in West

Chester, Andy and John often talk about their commute times within the city, but it got me wondering

how long does it take Jordan to get the radio offices and she picks up Andy's toes these before hands. She must have an early start. For me, Jordan exists only from the moment she steps into toasties. It's our world, Jordan is just living in it. Yes. Jordan how long is your commute, Tarlin? Um, about an hour, door to door. Wow. You take a train. Take a train from West Chester. Yeah, where? What stop? Um, you don't want to say.

Tuck a hoe. Okay. Tuck a hoe. And then, yeah, take Cooper to the bus, then I get on a train, and then I walk to Tosti. What train? What time is the train? It's a eight, a love eight, ten train. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay. This morning Ben was like, asking me why I wasn't eating the, the nanny toasted a bagel for me. And I go, he goes eat your bagel daddy. I go, I'm not eating. He goes, why I go, breakfast is served for me at the

radio. He goes, well, that I'm no longer sharing my turkey bacon with you on Mondays and Wednesdays. I go, well, that seems wrong. You know, anyway. Yes, John. Anna from Philly, I was checking out your Instagram stories and I noticed this will be cool, but I had to find to say something you posted a picture of you in a friend at an art gallery. You were wearing white Air Force ones, but at this point, they're black. And he please update your Air Force ones. Your outfit

was so nice. Head to ankles. I can't say toes because of the filthy shoes. You know, what so funny? So I'm wearing, oh, no, I'm not. I'm wearing nice shoes today. Those black Air Force ones, they're not black. I mean, they're just scoffed in messy and she's right. I wear those as like my everyday Air Force ones because I have a nice pair, like I'll bring the nice pair to Chicago this weekend. But like, what do you do when they get dark? You just throw them out? Well, I don't know,

listen, there is a contingent of Brooklyn gaze who the scuffed and dirty are the better. Oh,

“yeah, well, I'm sure. Well, I'm not a Brooklyn game. I'm a man hat and faggot. I think there's a”

bunch of man hat and faggot so it would say the same. I think it's like, you know, they're golden goose shoes. They sell them pre scuff. Like, it's a, it's a, it's a look. I don't think it looks bad. I think it's a matter of taste. I think crisp white ones are actually like, not, not your look. Thanks. I think it's fine. Keep them scuffed. Okay. They're kick around shoes. They're not like, they're city shoes. They're going to get scuff. Yeah. I'm in the city, city, bag.

Concerned, Kristen and Boston. Now that you've fixed your eyes, can you please fix your voice? You need a throat doctor enough with a coughing of vocal for a fry. It's beyond now at this point. Who is that? Kristen in Boston. I mean, why are people from Boston so confrontational and just

all right, Kristen. I know one thing at a time. Let me deal with this first. I agree. Well,

she, I'm Austin Crow. What can I say? She, Madison. She emailed twice. Oh, what's the second Kristen of Austin, Andy is wrong. That was not the worst Kyle has ever been. He hyped it up so much and that was just Kyle. We have seen way worse behavior, seeing him in the upcoming episode, throwing and screaming at Carl seems worse. Well, you know what? It talks to a man to like that.

“Okay. You know what? Telling your wife, if you, you are like, what did he say?”

I've like, you're a dumb, you're like, yeah, you never say fuck you to your friend. Yeah, and you never say

you're a dumb. I never said that to a boyfriend. I never say I just, I don't know. So anyway, by the way, that's all I said, I didn't go on and on about it. I just said it's really bad. All right, Tanya from Chicago, owner of Printers Row, Weinbar and Chop. Andy, you are never wrong in my eyes.

“Hi, John, you darling love. I'll never get over DMing with you during the beginning of COVID.”

Andy, you'll be happy to know the mark. He is up at the Chicago Theatre for AC2. I have tickets to both nights with thinking of wearing your gant shirt that I bought through house. Oh, the same as a photo. I look like a handy man who lost her tool belt. That's a nice way of saying, I won't say the do you word, but this being should I wear it? Would you like to get me back stage so you can see

“your shirt again? Well, I'm looking at your picture right now. Let me see it. Oh, you are so cute. That's a”

great shirt. Oh, she ain't no lesbian. That's cute. It would be fine if she was obviously. She's beautiful. Let's be in our beautiful creatures. I agree. Yeah, we're elegant. You'll feel close to each other. I love lesbians. Not the you are one. But I feel bad. She's going both nights because it don't feel relatively the same show. She's going for the vibe. Okay. Krista, I was wondering how long Andy's longest relationship was and when his last long term relationship was he talks about wanting to

find someone but he only mentions random coffee dates. It's hard to believe that he knows a great guy to set him up with. How long were John and Andy together? Two and a half? Hmm, like that.
