Friday's show regarding emails...what were your thoughts?? someone said a week to respond! WTF kind of business do you work in!! Tay is in a fluid business that things get planned on the fly...i'm assuming she needed headshots and a blurb for that thing her, nicole and the other girl are doing. That seems like it was quickly planned and therefore needed a quick response.  

 
I'm actually listening to this right now, sitting at my desk (fuming!) because I haven't heard back from my IT Dept on an email I sent last Thursday. Seriously?!?! 24-hrs max...it's not about instant gratification, it's about being freaking professional and not wasting other people's time. Me getting my work done is dependent on you answering my question/doing your part, etc. aaaagghhh I'm so annoyed!!

PS...seems like they just cut and pasted pic/bio from any of her half-assed online ventures...no offense, but girlfriend really needs some new photos and is LONG overdue for a new bio. "Uplifting women one self-deprecating story at a time." Gag. If she is supposed to be uplifting to women, leave me on the damn floor!

LOL! I'll stay down there with you. Totally agree on the new bio thing - if for no other reason than most of them need to be proof read. 

You ladies are so funny! just pulled me right out of that IT-induced rage!! 😜

Hey Taylor, you know what’s really feminist? Supporting women in all of their endeavors, whether you personally agree with it or not.
 
I am SO tired of hearing her “beauty shame” women. The discussion about pageants yesterday really set me off- I’ve never done pageants and don’t really get into watching them on TV, but if that is what a girl/woman wants to do, more power to her.
 
I really hate that the feminist narrative has turned into its own set of restrictions on women. Isn’t feminism really about giving women the power to choose? How is chastising a woman who chooses to participate in a beauty pageant, be a stay at home mom, or take pride in her appearance any different than chastising a woman 30 years ago who chose to have a career instead of a family? What is so wrong about owning and celebrating your femininity?
 
Taylor saying that women are “taken advantage of” in situations like beauty pageants is quite possibly the LEAST feminist thing she could ever say. The implication is that women are stupid and don’t have minds of their own. Has it ever occurred to her that maybe some women actually enjoy these things and made an informed decision to participate, whatever their reasons may be?
 
The cherry on top is how spectacularly inarticulate Taylor is for someone who speaks for a living. Here she is going on and on about how women are worth more than their appearance, all the while sounding like an absolute buffoon (hair girth…?). You tell ‘em, Tay. Poster child for feminism.
 
Sorry, I know people have called her out on the feminist thing before but I just finished yesterday’s show and it really pissed me off. End rant.

Isn't being a feminist kind of like being classy? If you say you are, you're not. Let your actions and deeds speak for you. What actions has Taylor specifically gone out of her way to take that support her view of herself as a feminist? Who is she mentoring, where is she giving back, how is she making room in her life to study, learn, grow?

Oh - wait. She's not.

I can barely keep up with her non-sensical logic. Doctors are all over worked and underpaid, but a server making $2.13 an hour (that is server wage in my state) is a freeloader just looking for a handout? Am I living in fucking bizarro-land?? And that caller wondering how this ties into the political climate, I would say that they both are demonizing the wrong group of people. Why are we berating workers who are just doing their job in the economic reality that we are currently living in? If you don't want to have to tip these people, then we as a society need to demand that their employers pay them a wage they can survive on, instead of using their customers to subsidize their employee's salaries.

I totally agree.  I have no idea what Taylor said this time, but she seems to have such a narrow minded and simplistic view of what is going on with the wage gap.  It is so complicated, and all I have ever heard her mourn for is herself and doctors.  I don't think either are really struggling when it comes to the basic necessities of life, like some people.
 

The caller Beth yesterday on pageants was literally the most precious sweet lady ever.

The callers about vacationing in Cuba...I can't even...the first one who said it was the safest place ever? Her family must be cozy with the Castro's because from what i've heard if you speak out against them you get cuffed and stuffed (similar to Kenny's relative) also, it is outdated, i saw on the news that currently only 10% of people have access to the internet!!! but apple is supposedly going to come in a give them more access to wifi.  

 
Not sure where in Cuba you have travelled to, but both Veradero and Holguin are incredibly safe. Punishment for crime against a tourist is worse then for most other crimes. I've been numerous times and never once thought of safety, as a bunch of women we were walking from our hotel and back to clubs/bars along the strip in Veradero and nothing but positive experiences.

The Cuban people are incredibly generous, we were invited to numerous people's homes for a meal that we met while on tours.

The only downfall may be the food as they don't have access to a lot of spices and stuff, it's all incredibly fresh though and I never had a problem with it. Obviously not comparible with what most of eat at home, or think of as resort food, but I would never describe it as disgusting.

I've travelled most of the world (haven't been to the bottom of South America or a lot of the Middle East) and Cuba is always one of the first places I recommend for people looking for a holiday where they want to interact with people and see some history.

It's Elizabeth BANKS who starred in Hunger Games,etc.  NOT Elizabeth Smart - she was the young girl who was kidnapped!  Big difference....anyone else notice she kept saying wrong name?!?!

The worst is when she looks to kenny for a name of a movie or person, or even a word. He has never once been able to come up with an answer. Stop asking him, he has no clue!

Yes!!! At first I thought she meant Amy Smart. And then she had me doubting myself that maybe it was Elizabeth Smart that was in Hunger Games, 30 Rock, etc. But then again I was pretty sure Elizabeth Smart was the girl who got kidnapped. I was so confused. Someone definitely should have corrected her.

Yes - every damn day and every damn person she tries to talk about.

Yes!! How do you get a celebrity mixed up with a kidnapping victim? And two or three other people in the same room don't realize it or won't correct her??

Taylor throws her Catholic upbringing around but then dismissed Easter because she doesn't get it. Really??? I love her but really get annoyed sometimes. The contradictions and confusion kill me!

I'm surprised they are in tomorrow, is it not a holiday for you guys? Canada is shut down, like even Walmart will be closed!
 

Thanks
