Queenie and Weenie of the Week
At 48:52 · chapter starts 44:20
Jackie names a Patreon episode called Drizzle and Chips as her Queenie of the Week: she and Claudia went back and listened to old 2020 Dear Toasters episodes recorded right after their cancellation, and the result was so funny — they sounded so scared and lame — that Jackie lost all her eye makeup from crying laughing at Mahjong, made Ben watch the last 20 minutes in bed, and got a cramp. Claudia gives her Queenie to Granny the Cook, the iPad that made it to the show after a week of discussion. For Weenies: Jackie picks Brooklyn Beckham, calling him a 'nepo son and a nepo husband' who should be treating his mother 'like the moon' instead of doing DoorDash commercials. Claudia picks Love Island's Kenzie for the 'Clam Slam' — the viral 'f*** you' moment — though she acknowledges Kenzie had choreographed a whole split routine she never got to perform because the boys left for Casa Amor.
Patreon episode — funniest ever made
Jackie called the Drizzle and Chips Patreon episode the funniest podcast episode she and Claudia had ever recorded, saying all her eye makeup was off from crying laughing.
The Drizzle and Chips Patreon Episode Is the Funniest Thing They've Ever Made
Jackie and Claudia listened back to their own 2020 episodes — recorded right after their cancellation — and couldn't stop laughing at how scared and lame they sounded. Jackie cried so hard she arrived at Mahjong with all her eye makeup off. She calls it the funniest episode they've ever made.
Brooklyn Beckham Is Weenie of the Week
Claudia names Brooklyn Beckham Weenie of the Week after his DoorDash commercial and reports that he's upset about Father's Day coverage. Her verdict: he's a nepo son and a nepo husband whose mother should be the moon.
The Clam Slam Heard Round the World
Kenzie's 'Clam Slam' moment — where she yelled 'f*** you' in the villa — becomes the defining embarrassing moment of the season. But Jackie shows some sympathy: Kenzie had choreographed a whole split routine to show off and the boys left for Casa Amor right before her big moment.
