Consider Us Considered: Monday, November 9th, 2026

Episode of The Toast · November 9, 2026 · 1 h 6 min

Claudia and Jackie Oshry discuss Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss reuniting, Sofia Franklyn's memoir about Alex Cooper, the LACMA gala, Betty Buzz's shutdown, and The Bachelor's return.

Summary

Sisters Claudia and Jackie Oshry opened with a recap of a birthday weekend that included both of their sons taking first steps, then announced a tongue-in-cheek "For Your Consideration" billboard campaign in Los Angeles and New York aimed at a Golden Globe nomination. Claudia said she would win either way and proposed calling the show "Golden Globe considered." They also discussed refreshing the show's cover art.

The first story covered Taylor Swift attending a Kansas City Chiefs game with Karlie Kloss. Claudia recounted the theory that the friendship ended because Kloss shared information with Scooter Braun. She examined the "Gaylor" theory, citing a lyric from Bad Blood, and argued that Swift's You Need to Calm Down era was performative rather than queerbaiting. Jackie said the lyric evidence was not proof and suggested forgiveness was possible. Claudia also offered an interpretation of Swift's song Babylon.

The hosts then discussed a Page Six report that Alex Cooper was alarmed by Sofia Franklyn's forthcoming memoir Daddy Issues, which implies a fling between Cooper and Dave Portnoy. Without revealing spoilers, both said the book was very damaging to Cooper and fair to Portnoy. Claudia described it as a heartbreaking account of a friendship ending and said it showed Call Her Daddy had been scripted by a man. They also reviewed Franklyn's podcast press tour.

Later segments covered looks from the LACMA Art + Film Gala, praising Kylie Jenner and criticizing Kim Kardashian's outfit. They discussed Blake Lively winding down Betty Buzz and Betty Booze, which Claudia attributed to Lively's diminished popularity after the It Ends With Us controversy. The episode closed with ABC's announcement that The Bachelor would return in 2027. Claudia said she had thought the franchise was over, while Jackie said the world needs The Bachelor. They finished with speculation about the upcoming season of The Traitors.
