At 34:34 · chapter starts 32:36
Claudia (who learned about Shrek 5 first from Olivia's Instagram) delivers the news that the Donkey spin-off has a 2028 release date. Jackie notes she was already aware via her daughter Olivia's social posts — Olivia being the family's Shrek correspondent. Both agree Olivia should be invited to the premiere and that if influencer marketing budget exists, 'bitch, hire my mom.' Jackie makes the case that Donkey was always the breakout character, that everything memorable from Shrek is a Donkey quote, and that Eddie Murphy built a dream job — recording at home for big money. Jackie also argues Donkey is a better role model than Shrek himself.

Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley are reuniting for You Deserve to Know, an Alex Cooper-produced adaptation of a suspense novel about suburban mothers with dark secrets. Jackie is most interested in the Alex Cooper production angle — because you can't keep a good girl down.
