Good morning, girlies, it's the toast.

It's Jackson Claude and we're your host.

It's your favorite show, the fast-five things you need to know.

We'll start your day off, swirly. It's the toast. I sound amazing. Welcome back to The Toast and happy Tuesday. That feels like a Monday, but it also feels like a Friday because we're fucking celebrating. Yeah, that's right. We're back. I had a baby. We survived maternity leave. It's Jackie. It's

Claude. It's Jackie. Good luck. You're not going to hear Jackie today because I got a lot to say.

I think we all have a lot to say today. It's giving January 2nd, like first day of the new year.

I thought you were going to say it's giving January 6th and it is because this is a Reaction Day bitch. We are like, there's just a lot going on, much like there was on January 6th. And I feel like objectively for all the swirlies out there, there's a lot going on today. It's the first day back to work after Labor Day after summer. So like it's really the

first, it's like a January 2nd in its own way. It's a reset for a lot of people, not to center

ourselves. Obviously there's a lot going on for us as well. Right. But I'm experiencing like a

complete reset just from summer, from coming home, from like unpacking, from coming back to toast.

Like I don't, I can't remember the last time a day held so much in it as today.

No, it's so true. And do you also feel like a lot is also happening today? Like otherwise, like,

I just like, maybe it's because I don't normally wake up this early before work. I've been up for

hours doing feedings, you know, a million things. I don't usually have a whole ass day before the toast. But I've literally lived three lives already today. No, I know. And that's toast motherhood. I kind of love it. And I might be like regretting saying this. But I do feel like once I get settled into a routine, we're in the

process of putting Ruby on a schedule, getting his naps and feedings, like, more routine.

Thank you. I do feel like I could get to a place where I could start recording earlier.

I felt that way in the spring.

Today, just every, today, no, but honestly, maybe after the baby and everything,

that is something that is in our future as my mother.

We're just like early risers now.

So yeah, I'm a working mom.

I've had maybe twice before getting here.
