Writing this on my phone, so responding to points one by one. Apologies if I seem "short," it's the phone not a 'tude

1) Taylor and Chelsea have definitively hung out before. Maybe not one on one, but there have been plenty of stories.
2) I always thought Kenny was saying those things because he was catching himself almost saying divorce.  You're right, as an outsider looking in that could seem insensitive.
3) Kenny seems to want to keep his private life more private, so perhaps that is a reason. I swear I remember Bret calling into relatively frequently a few years ago, but not recently. I could be misremembering, but I thought that happened.
4) who knows
5) One purchase per household seems reasonable to me, but I missed that convo so I may have missed context.
6) In general, I think that there are some people that if you want them to be in your life you have to accept them as they are. One of my really good friends, you have to realize he's going to cancel at the last minute 90% of the time. Another, she will only go out if she initiates and can plan everything. They are annoying traits and I wish they didn't have these qualities, but I had to weigh whether having these people in my life were worth the annoying parts of their personalities. They are worth it, even though they drive me crazy sometimes I think that's the same thing with Taylor. You realize her selfishness/narcissism are bad traits and sometimes you are going to end up disappointed. But she's not going to change and if you want her in your life...take her (and love her) as she is.

I don't think she is dependable or loyal at all. She's stated that she doesn't even text her own friends back. She also missed her plane for an important family event and then reamed out the airline on the air for not making an exception when she threw a temper tantrum at the airport.  I remember one show she was talking about how one of her very good friends only spent $40 on her wedding gift(I think it was a napkin holder). I couldn't believe she was telling this story on air about a close friend. I bet her friend had to pay a lot of money to be a bridesmaid, travel, etc.

You are right about B calling in...he did in the beginning of their relationship (marriage). I remember when they played a game where K asked questions, kind of like the Dating Game (although I do really think they were married at the time.) 

On another note, I am not at all surprised, but completely and totally disappointed in T for missing K's movie premiere. In my opinion, even if K was expecting her to do that (which, think about that statement alone and what it says about T), it is still a way of showing someone just how important they are to you. I remember a recent show where T spent a good portion of time discussing the text she mistakenly got from her friends about 'I bet T doesn't show' (or something like that) to a kid's birthday party. Does she not understand that it's not really about the party? It's about her reputation of being dependable? A loyal friend? Someone you can rely on? I'm sure all of us know how to say 'No' when you don't want to go to something...or, if you feel obligated, 'yes' and live through it like big girls. I will even give her a pass (not that it is at ALL my place) on missing those, even though I feel she was way out of line for at least not RSVP'ing and/or even texting that morning to let someone know she wasn't coming, but KENNY? Yes, she had bus issues...but in real life, us mortals leave early when we know it is something we CANNOT MISS. I wouldn't be able to look at the other person (if I were T) and not always, always feel bad that I missed such a big moment for them. 

Vent over.....and still love you T. Hope you will find yourself, or walk in other's shoes, or be authentic, or whatever it will take for you to be happy. 

 

For realz..... Missing such an important moment in kenny's life is NOT ok. Whether it's a work friend, best friend or whatev..... He's been working on the movie for YEARS. How could she have missed it.

It won an award??? Which one???? That's awesome!!

The 'non-discussion' of the movie premiere is even more amazing when you think about the endlesssss discussions of Fashion Week we are subjected to!!!!

I wish we could have heard more about the premiere, too. So exiting for Kenny. I have to imagine it'll be coming out on VOD in the near future.

I think they are 100% friends, and i feel like it is the way you would be friends with a guy you worked closely with for years but you're married so you're not going to spend of alone time with them just purely out of respect for their significant other(s). Tay has mentioned before that when kenny has been out of town on the weekends her and chels have gotten brunch or she's gone out to BK to spend some time with her..  I know tay said kenny and chels have been out to her parents house in boston & they seem to hang out on the weekends when they have time etc. I think tay genuinly was attempting to get to the premiere and just couldnt make it due to traffic. We all know tay has poor time management & esp lately now that brett isnt there to keep her on schedule (i am the same as her so not putting her down!) i can see how coming back from out east would take longer than anticipated on a sunday night and she could literally have just been stuck in traffic. I think she legit felt bad about it and she said she texted him and brought it up the next morning when she saw him.

The way Tay fishes for compliments from Kenny makes me feel icky.. Am I alone in this? especially lately.. I just cringe sometimes listening to him compliment her butt/ body/ personality😁 Kenny, I understand you're trying to be a good friend to someone with low self esteem.. But you're married Bro..even when they were talking about what makes a relationship last and Kenny talked about his relationship with Chels AND his relationship with Taylor..

 
I agree that she's been searching for him to compliment her a lot more lately!! He's already flattering to her enough he's super nice n supportive. It's kinda sad on her part.

I say this for a number of reasons:
1. T recently hung out with Chelsea for the first time. Wouldn't they have hung out b4 now? I know NY is big but really?
2. Since the divorce, K has made snide comments about T's situation. Ex: when T was talking about moving, K said something like 'Yeah I moved too, the only difference is that me and Chelsea are staying together.' I know he's a comedian but for a friend who has publically said that she cries all the time over this situation, would you really make fun or light of it? I wouldn't.
3. If C was really a fan of the show, why has she never been on or called in? (On a side note. Why didn't B? The bosses had to know that the listeners would eat that up. I would've loved it.)
4. If C was really a fan and a friend, why would she be reading these pages pretty regularly like us according to K and why would K be mentioning that C reads it? If this was my friend I would take her lead. If she wanted me to read it I would if she didn't I wouldn't. T has asked us to stop so I would guess that she wouldn't want people close to her reading it or relaying messages to her.
5. If K was really a friend, why say that C bought the Miami video and he watched hers. Why not buy his own to support just like T did with Night Pageant?
6. Why wouldn't T bust her butt to be at the movie premier? Traffic Smraffic!
I think these two really use terms like best friends and like a brother loosely. And it's fine it just causes me to question more than I want to. I just want to listen and not think. Lol

 
I don't know all the details of their friendship or lack thereof, but I think Kenny is a pretty good friend. Supportive and let's go of the crappy stuff she says/does. 4: I think for this one, T has mentioned many of her close friends telling her stuff from the pages (she prob reads too) so I don't think C is wrong for that. But I think 6 is the best point! She flakes and couldn't care less. That's not what a friend would do.
