Cristine, in case this is reassuring to hear: I have never once noticed your eye rash, even when you point it out. AND I am super appreciative of the fact that you don't wear make up and that you continue to be on camera and be yourself. There's nothing wrong with having a face, and you shouldn't need to cover it up no matter what. Your eyes look more fantastic than they ever have and I hope you learn to love the way you look every day :)

Honestly, I don't see the rash either! All I see is her pretty, natural face! I've become so accustomed to it being no make up it's weird to rewatch old videos with her having it on. I've grown fond of her bare face, like your best friend who doesn't feel the need to "put a face on" before coming over.

Truly, hearing her talk about this, I thought to myself, "I didn't think this was still going on!" Also for podcasts I am super down with people wearing whatever the heck they want and looking how they want. I think since Jenna and Julien were the first podcast I watched on YT, they just set my standard of "we're privileged to get to hang out with these people." And, if I were to go to a friend's house, I'm usually in sweats and no makeup and a big bun. No judgement here.

The Met Gala is mildly important to people who care about fashion because it's a fundraiser for the Met's Costume Institute. This, I believe, is the only part of the museum that has to fund itself.

And Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of vouge, selects the guests herself, or I believe its possible to buy a ticket.

Correct. Which means to even be considered and invited by Anna Wintour, net worth is definitely considered. Its a fundraiser at the end of the day. High fashion aint cheap! Fashion is apart of culture though. It defines eras, so of course the red carpet is televised! So many people idolize these high profile folks, so they make a bigger deal about the guest list than they should, in recent years.

And by “costume institute”, we mean the historical clothing museum. It is the ONLY segment of the Met that is 100% self-funded.. thus the gala to fund themselves. The Met by large doesnt help out at all with funding for that musuem, and its something people in the department are fighting against. The historical value of clothing is incredibly undervalued, and clothing historians are still trying to gain validation and appreciation from other historian types.

As much as I enjoyed Cristine's "Saturday" content, I felt it was noticeable when it wasn't as much fun for her anymore, and the content suffered because it. I'd rather see her do content she enjoys and that doesn't stress her out. My favourite parts about the "Saturday" content was when her and Ben started chatting about all sorts of things, and that's why I enjoy this podcast just as much, actually even more than the other pre-recorded stuff. In my opinion content is better when the person doing it has fun. And that goes for all creative fields, no matter if you're a musician, actor or a KZitemr etc..

You guys should look into the Met Gala more, it's kind of interesting. It's ultimately a fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. I think it's like a lot of costume or fashion events in that people don't really watch it for the 'live vicariously through these people' entertainment, and more art and fashion appreciation and criticism. They (the designers) have the challenge of trying to fit the theme of the exhibition each year, and people like to judge how different designers interpret these themes (or don't, as is often that case!).

I understand missing the long-form videos, because I discovered Simply a few years ago during a very hard time in my life, and the goofy fun of the videos really helped me get through. But it became obvious as time went on that Cristine wasn't enjoying those videos as much, as she speaks about here, and I'd much rather see content created by someone who's enjoying what they're doing. I watch the podcasts and livestreams (although usually not live) and I enjoy feeling like I'm just having a chat with Cristine and Ben. I think that kind of cozy familiarity is a real gift that not all creators have. I feel like it's the same as for Safiya Nygaard -- creating videos on that fast-paced schedule really seemed to do a number on her mental health, and it seems like livestreaming has helped her get back into content that she actually enjoys making. tl;dr -- you do what makes you happy, Cristine, I'm on board.

As a girl from Austin, Texas, I am super happy to hear y'all talk about my city!

I'm sorry y'all had that weird experience with the driver bringing up guns randomly. Texas law does allow for open carry and more recently permitless open carry. I really recommend reading up on the University of Texas at Austin protest against the campus open carry laws called "Cocks not Glocks." It's from a few years back, but it was a really interesting way of protesting guns laws at our city's flagship university.

I wanna give an argument to that "we don't want this Simply analogy" as a person who loves videos but doesn't like streams (mostly because I live in a place where I am never in sync with the creators I watch time zone wise) I think people are afraid of losing the videos part and only getting streams. Edit. English isn't my first language sorry for the mistakes if any.

Anna Wintour decides who gets to go and what they wear. The designers usually work with the client to create something that is resprentative of everyone's brand. So, Kendal Jenner loves Audrey Hepburn and wanted to reference her (she didn’t really nail the theme but that’s a different conversation). So, I think it really is important to invite the right person mostly so people watch and also so they turn out looks and are on theme (which didn’t happen).

@@tamhuy10 Most of the times though celebs get the final say in what they are wearing. Lady Gaga wore 4 looks when the camp theme happened. The looks weren't necessarily camp but the whole performance made it camp and the idea was entirely Lady Gaga's. So, a lot of the times the models/celebs have a lot more say than we think especially the Jenners, Kardashians, Rihana, and those of sorts of people. I get it if someone has signed a contract and does not have a lot of say but most can turn out looks and they just don't.

MILK THEN TEA PERSON HERE: I've done it this way since I read Douglas Adam's "How to Make Tea" article because as he rightly puts it "pouring milk into hot tea will scald the milk". But also, I find I can hit my idea milk to tea ratio much better doing milk first since there's a lot more wiggle-room on the way to a full cup.

The trick for getting tea brewing temperature right without a fancy kettle is to boil the water fully, then dilute to the temperature needed with the temperature you want representing a percentage - e.g. I'd you need 80⁰C water, doing 80% boiling and 20% cold water (room temperature straight from the tap) should get you in the temperature range for that tea 😊. Pretty sure this only works with ⁰C though 🤔

Fun fact about cafeine (theine) in tea: it's the exact same thing as in coffee, but because of the other things that tea contains, it's absorbed more slowly into the body and hence has a bit different effect. Coffe will give you a sharp spike in energy and then leave you with a sharp low when it runs out, whereas tea will make you more energetic for a longer time, more mildly.

The conversation around making videos on a regular schedule and how hard that can be really gets me. On the one hand, I do have several youtubers I really look forward to content from, and I want more, more more. I could watch them every day. But then having tried my hand at video editing and understanding how taxing that process is, even setting aside the fact that doing anything for more than a couple years can get exhausting it's so obvious how unreasonable that is to actually demand from the creators I watch.

Kettle recommendation- I have a "Cuisinart CPK-17 PerfecTemp 1.7-Liter Stainless Steel Cordless Electric kettle" from Amazon (that's the entire name on Amazon) and LOVE IT!! It has 6 temp settings plus a keep warm setting, holds a really good amount of water, heats up really fast and accurate. I've had it for 5 years and use it daily with zero issues, even the inside still looks brand new. I know Cristine linked hers in the description box but I just wanted to share another option. Hope everyone enjoys some delicious tea 💗🧋🍵 *Edit- I'm a big fan of different tea throughout the day but not how you might think. I stick with PG Tips decaf tea (it's got blue on the top of the box, I buy it by the case via Amazon) all day and night however during the day I'll add peach, mango, pineapple, or strawberry puree to my unsweetened tea (buy it in the international section of the store) to enjoy cold/chilled and then at night I add a splash of simple syrup and do a 40/50 of coconut milk (silk brand) and unsweet tea, sometimes I'll drink it hot and sometimes I drink it cold which depends on the seasons/feeling hot/cold. Just changing up my tea with those little ways is really enjoyable.
