I'm behind...listening to Grace something or other (YouTuber). Um, did T say she JUST started a blog?? I can't.... Hope she actually listened to this girl when she talked about fresh, interesting, consistent content! (I.e. Not 5,000 stupid gift guides!!)

I also loved how when they asked her what the secret to becoming so popular on the internet (or whatever) is, her response was CONSISTENCY

I really hope (and think) that T took note of that. I want her to succeed at whatever projects she's taking on. This seems like a great, easy, and proven-to-be-successful starting point!

Dang, I didn't read the rest of your comment.. we made pretty much the same point.  I stopped after "JUST started a blog??" Got me all fired up 

 
Lol it's all good that fired me up too, she's had that blog for years! I hate to be negative because I do think could do a lot with her platform, she just needs to be consistent with something...anything. I really think she should forgo the blog and do YT videos. Instead of gift guides, do reviews of products she uses, shopping hauls, outfit of the day, restaurant reviews, vlogs, etc. It really doesn't have to be so...produced. She has enough subscribers to get sponsors if that's really all she's in it for, but don't hide behind gift guides (we all know you get a cut!) I think content like that would be more authentic than most of what is on the blog in my opinion. 😊

I just caught up on some of today's show. HOW DID THEY NOT KNOW WHAT A PRIMARY ELECTION IS???? Oh my god, and I'm pretty sure they still think it's just to feel out which candidate people like best. That is only somewhat true when a candidate doesn't get enough delegates to win. It could happen this year due to the sheer number of candidates, but I don't think it's ever happened before. Winning delegates in a primary election means a hell of a lot!!!

 
I'm glad I'm not the only one- the more I think about it the more angry I get lol. All this talk about how terrible it will be if Trump gets elected, and how it means Americans are stupid if he does...yet Taylor said she is registered as an independent which means she has NO SAY in who the candidate will even be.

I'm not sure who is dumber- the people who have the wherewithal to vote in a primary, even if it's for Trump, or the people who don't even know what a primary is. 

Here's a suggestion: invite a guest from the POTUS channel or something to do a segment on politics once in a while, especially as we get closer to the election. I cannot take anymore of their ignorant drivel.

The people who drive me the craziest are the ones who talk passionately about politics but never vote. If you're not going to vote then don't spout your ignorance around!

I'm not sure everyone would love a political expert on the show, but I would enjoy it. I am very into this election and everything that comes with it. 

 
I agree with all of the above. I guess what I meant about doing a segment is something like what they do with ***** Jobs/Alexa Von Toble, a "politics 101" kind of thing where they just go over the major points, not so much the talking head commentary stuff. But you're right, if I wanted to hear that I would sit in an 8th grade social studies class. 😑

Several comments about the above comments....Some states allow you to vote in a primary and be registered as an independent, NH is one of them, my state (LA) has a closed primary, you have to be registered with a specific party, so i cannot primary. When a specific person doesn't have enough delegates to secure the nomination that's when they have a brokered convention, and being liked would matter, but it doesn't happen often and hasn't happened in a while.  And they should have Pete Dominik on to talk politics, or some of his guest like the guys who run the DailyBeast.

Ooh,  that's a neat idea! I feel like I'm a fairly well-educated person (2 B.S. degress, M.S. degree in progress), but when it comes to politics, I would appreciate it dumbed down and explained a little bit. I mean, I'm aware of my general political leanings, and know enough to pick a candidate... but I don't know that I could even tell you what a primary election is :-\

Ugh.... hearing them bitch this morning about how they are so "accessible" and they do not need to be on social media any more than they already are.... ugh... makes me want to puke. They're right-they don't have to be... but if they (mostly Tay) want to be successful and expand her brand and make more money then YES YOU HAVE TO BE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. 

AHHHHH!!!!!!

THIS! Oh my god I had to go fetch my eyes from rolling out of my head and out the fucking door.

THAT IS HOW IT WORKS. It's not just Taylors IG that these things happen on, its literally everyone that is somewhat in the spotlight that does. Just fucking ignore it! Or make your IG private. Its so beyond her control that getting her panties in a knot over it is not worth it because it's going to happen again. Scroll through comments on Kylie Jenners IG to put things in perspective Taylor. Kids get in actual FIGHTS over the stupidest shit. ITS THE INTERNET. Oh my god! I am enraged. 

So much eye roll in the first hour! I want her to succeed in all her endeavors but she needs to develop thicker skin. People constantly tell me (unsolicited) how I should run my business and how to be better at it. You know what I do, I listen to what they say and think about it to see if it's a good business idea.  If you stopped learning and listening to ideas you will fail.   But what do I know.  

The prison sex toy segment was hilarious!!! 

Anyone know what the comment said?

I don't understand why Kenny would chime in, he is really active on both IG & Periscope.

Kenny said it was the same comment on his IG about how lame Dr. Freida was.  

Taylor said her friend didn't know if she could give her a ride because she has a dog and a kid to drive. I would be furious if my friend said that, especially if it meant Tay couldn't attend whatever the event was that she needed a ride to. That's dumb and that friend is being a B. 

I really REALLY hope they took video of Kenny making the fefe! I was dying laughing at the fact that he admitted trying it. And I've always loved his stories/voice of his ex boss, I believe his name is Cruise? Anyway, I'd love to relive that moment.

The last hour of today's show was so good! And that video of Kenny making a fifi. I die!!!!

There was a video?! I just looked at their website and couldn't find it!

Yes! They posted it on the show's Twitter account. So funny!
 

That AirB&B conversation this morning blew my head up. They just sound so uninformed and ridiculous. GOOGLE something if you're going to discuss it!

Also, it sounded like Taylor had never watched Ross Mathews show?? Hes coming in for an interview, watch one atleast. I tried to give them another chance, back to Opie I went though.

I hate hearing all the excuses about why they arent doing more... 

Oy!!! Kenny has a baby and two jobs, I get it. What on earth is Taylor doing though?? Even something so easy as laying in bed and watching the shows of the people you are interviewing is too much work.

I think she must be dating someone, I just can't fathom where all her time is going otherwise? All these other hosts seem to be doing a ton of other things and are still putting on great shows. Maybe that's it, she isn't doing anything so has nothing to talk about? I'm always just left so bewildered after the show.
 

I cringed so bad when T assumed the Brandy Ross mentioned was Brandi Glanville.  The only reason that interview didn't suck is because he took control of it.  It kills me to hear her talk about how much they love someone who is coming on & she can't even get their name right.  Ugh!!!
