Speaker 1Love to be clean, love bath time. And then a huge thing in our career, in our lives, happened. We went to the Meta headquarters, meta. M-e-t-a is Instagram and Facebook headquarters. We were invited there to do a fireside chat and they said, oh, just a couple people. Well, we, it was a boardroom.
Speaker 1It was literally an entire boardroom that we sat in front of and had. They asked us a million questions about being a pupfluencer, about social media, about everything and anything you could think of. And Nom Nom was there and we got to say hi to everyone, meet everyone besides like sitting at the head of the boardroom for an hour conference. It was really fun. And it said our social media handle behind us. It said at Tinkerbell the dog I'm on Tink's social we share. So unfortunately it didn't say Tinkerbell the dog and bell. It just said at Tinkerbell the dog because that's what our account is.
Speaker 3Yeah, but it was amazing, I came first baby.
Speaker 1It was amazing. It was such an honor to be invited. A special guest like that. Yeah, no dogs go ever. We were first in the whole city so we went all over the place in the building. They have so many floors. We took pictures with this. It's called the little room or the little house. What was it? The little room or?
Speaker 3the little house, the tiny apartment. That's it, the tiny apartment.
Speaker 1So we did content in a tiny apartment. It's literally a tiny apartment and it had a tiny. I'm still not sure whether that was a cat or a dog.
Speaker 3I'm pretty sure it was a dog. Yeah, yeah, it was a dog.
Speaker 1What kind of dog is that color? It looks like a dog it was a dog. The jury's out for me on that. Anyway, they had something called a tiny apartment. We did some content there.
Speaker 3Then they had something called the balcony with the birds yes, it was like a new york city um fire escape yeah, with birds yeah, that was fun like that, loved it um the wall yes, the facebook wall and here's the best thing.
Speaker 1so, after doing all this fun content running around um the whole meta world, we go to where our so-called fireside chat is, which was basically a giant boardroom, but the whole wing is Swifties. Every room was a different Taylor Swift song. Our boardroom was a Taylor Swift song.
Speaker 3Now what were the chances that we were? Tink and I looked at each other and I was like wait In the Taylor Swift wing.
Speaker 1What? And the girl's like oh yeah, this is the Taylor Swift wing and we're like what. So it was wild.
Speaker 3Our guest appearance was in the Taylor Swift wing. Our room was titled Great American Dynasty. Yes, that was the room.
Speaker 1And it was a great American dynasty for us. It really was. Yeah, it certainly was.
Speaker 3It just served the purpose perfectly.
Speaker 1Yeah, and apparently we did a very good job.
Speaker 3Everyone seemed to love it. They had a great time. They learned a lot.
Speaker 1Hang with us and take selfies.
Speaker 3Snuggle with us, get some kisses, touch the Fierce, fabulous Bluff in person.
Speaker 1Yeah, and not worry about their clothes getting hair on them, because we don't shed, we don't.
Speaker 3We're such a special breed.
Speaker 1That was our huge thing for this week.
Speaker 2It was amazing.

Speaker 1Yeah, and I don't have my stats to read right now, but I'll read them maybe after. Okay, tink, so let's go okay let's go on to tinky winky with her um pop culture for the week. I feel like I'm I'm out of it. I don't know what's been happening in the world.
Speaker 3This, yeah, I have to be honest, like I've been crazy busy, especially the second half of the week. Yeah, like these fierce, fabulous paws have just been flying around New York City.
Speaker 1Yeah, me too, so yeah, we haven't really paid attention to anything. Pop, pop nothing.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 3Gator culture, giraffe culture, monkey culture and not much happened with the queen this week. We'll just start with that as we go to pop culture. Might as well, you know, not much has happened with the queen this week.
Speaker 1We'll just start with that as we go to pop culture.
Speaker 3Might as well. You know not much has happened with the queen. She did not drop anything.
Taylor Swift Drama
Speaker 1No, no as we thought I know Everybody makes these crazy stories up. They call it clowning. It's ridiculous, is what it is. Enough is enough, swifties. Stop making up stories about the queen.
Speaker 3But we did get a confirmation that in the suite that taylor swift watches the games from in our head stadium. Yeah, there is an eras tour poster in the suite yeah, wait did we talk about that last week?
Speaker 3we talked about how people thought there was an heiress tour, but it was very blurry and not it wasn't clear if it was, like, actually true. But then there were photos shared by what's her name? Let me go back now Shiana Weathersby, who's one of the other wives of the players um, not wives, sorry. The one who's dating he? Okay, she's dating kansas city chiefs defensive tackle, chris jones don't know him and yeah, I don't think we know anyone except for my homies and cologne so.
Speaker 3But she took some selfies with Taylor and some photos with her and in one of the photos you see clearly in the background Travis, a photo of him kind of screaming on the field and or not screaming, maybe like cheering, like yeah, or something, and then next to it is Taylor, the Aras Tour poster on the wall.
Speaker 1That's really weird, so did Taylor buy that suite.
Speaker 3I don't. I honestly have no idea who would decorate it with yourself.
Speaker 1That's kind of strange.
Speaker 3Maybe he bought it and decorated it because yeah, maybe I don't think she would do that herself. I think it's his suite and then he just had to have put it in.
Speaker 1He personalized it for her, I guess.
Speaker 3Yeah, look, and here's a bigger photo you can see, and there's like his photo and then it's like her. Oh yeah, there's his mouth open, it's like her.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, there's his mouth open. He's like roaring, like wow. Yeah roaring Like a lion yes. Huh, well, interesting.
Speaker 3But we are confirmed it's there.
Speaker 1I want to know why. Who, what Wait, her mom was there. Did you know that she was?
Speaker 3And also they won yes, and also they won?
Speaker 1Yes, of course they won.
Speaker 3Well, you never know.
Speaker 1Never know, but I know.
Speaker 3They won, though again, like I don't think like this is no like.
Speaker 1Here's what happened the last second of the game. The man I don't know their names kicked the ball way up high in the air and it went to the field goal, end zone, whatever you want to call that thing. And they won, and they won by one point. Boom, they were losing.
Speaker 3That's all you need, though.
Speaker 1And then it was over and they won by that one point. Yep, that one kicker man did it. Mm-hmm, wow, crazy how this game is. All you need is one kick a man.
Speaker 3I know Amazing.
Speaker 1All right.
Speaker 3Okay, so on to the Taylor Swift news.
Speaker 1So this is kind of about Taylor Fake news Swifty made up or real.
Speaker 3No, this is real news. Okay, so Zach Bryan apologized for drunkenly tweeting about Kanye West that he is better than Taylor Swift. The singer's apology on his Instagram story came shortly after he deleted his ex account. Watch the full video here. So then it tells you to watch the full video but it's fine.
Speaker 1I heard about that, Thank you.
Speaker 3Page Six why do you have to give me videos? We don't need videos, we just need an article. So, anyway, his um, he drunkenly wrote this tweet that basically said that he believed that carney west was made better music than taylor swift. And then he said on um instagram story, trying to backpedal, and he was like for the record guys, I wasn't coming for taylor. The other night I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong.
Speaker 1he said he's barking up the wrong tree if he thinks he's coming for Taylor. Come on, buddy. You don't know what would happen to you from the Swifties if you went for Taylor.
Speaker 3Well, that's why I think he started backpedaling right away, because he noticed that he really messed up Backstrokes, not pedal and this kind of like bums me out because, well then he started saying like things like I love Taylor's music and pray. You guys know I'm human and stupid and tweet stupid things often. Hope one day I can explain this to her so honestly, like no. First of all, I feel like she's out of like that, just solidified, like he will never have a, he'll never do a collab or anything with her. Now it's over.
Speaker 1It's over, buddy. It's over. It's over whether you're drunk or sober. It's over, you're done drunk or sober.
Speaker 3It's over, it's over you're done. I mean, obviously there's some truth after you and there's some truth into that, because just because you did it drunk, that's when the truth comes out.
Speaker 1Yeah and you? You put it out there. There's too many Swifties. You know it was screenshot everywhere.
Speaker 3You're doomed, doomed, buddy doomed the end of the world has come for you, I don't really think that she would at this point in her career and everything. I don't think she would come for him, but like she definitely won't help him.
Speaker 1She won't help him, but she's not coming for him. The Swifties are coming for him.
Speaker 3No, yeah, but I just mean like she doesn't have to go for anyone.
Speaker 1It's over, but like the Swifties, do their work.
Speaker 3I don't think that she would go out of her way now to like do anything for him, or like there's no possibility of his name yeah like if he ever wanted to tour with her.
Speaker 1Nope I don't think that would ever happen. And here's the other. No collabs, don't even try stepping into the black dog, just stay away now, buddy which is like so frustrating because, honestly, he's a fabulous songwriter.
Speaker 3His music, music is fabulous.
Speaker 1With a stupid brain, stupid or stupid fingers.
Speaker 3Your fingers did the work. Stupid fingers, stupid fingers, tweeter fingers, tweeter fingers, tweeter fingers.
Speaker 1Buddy, you got stupid fingers. Yeah, he's done, just inhaled dust. You say this to him.
Speaker 3Peace out buddy. Then he tried sharing all of Taylor Swift's songs and his stories he's ridiculous and saying he's like don't drink and tweet. Don't drink and tweet. Yeah, dude, you already did it.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's already over, buddy, it's over, it's over and that's his PR people probably telling him to do that.
Speaker 3You better fix this Hurry, hurry, hurry.
Speaker 1But you know what? It makes him look even sillier.
Speaker 3I know it's like he shouldn't have. He honestly like why.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was just too much, he was trying too much.
Speaker 3Yeah, enough To apologize Like just get over it.
Speaker 1You're done. You did it, accept it. You accept your consequences, buddy.
Speaker 3Yeah, unfortunately that's what happens, yep. So, that's my. What is that weird?
Speaker 1saying they say you reap what you sow.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 1Is that what it's called? Yes, well, he's reaping it, boy.
Speaker 3I don't really understand what that means.
Speaker 1anyway, Me either, and you know this.
Speaker 3You have so much wisdom. Three-year-old Belle this.
Speaker 1You're such a, you have so much wisdom three-year-old bell, because I hear it all the time like these weird things and I repeat them and tinks, like what are you saying? I'm like, well, I heard this saying. I don't know what it means, but I think it's appropriate for whatever we were doing at the time. What do I say? Oh, there's something about oats. What do I say about the?
Speaker 3oh yeah, you, you're really into oats, like I think. I think Quaker should come up to give us a sponsorship.
Speaker 1Quaker, we love you. Yeah, there's some saying and I heard it and then I said it Okay, so this is what you reap, what you sow, is a proverb.
Speaker 3That means the consequences of one's actions are shaped by what they do in the present.
Speaker 1And then I see I said I reap what you sow. I said it then, right, If you're rude to everyone.
Speaker 3you'll reap what you sow to experience the same kind of things that one has caused other people to experience, so kind of like karma.
Speaker 1Yeah, karma is the guy on the cheese Coming straight home to me.
Speaker 3Now wait, what's the other one? The oats.
Speaker 1You're feeling your oats.
Speaker 3You're feeling your oats Meaning.
Speaker 1I heard that and I repeated it to Tink and she thought I was really losing it.
Speaker 3Feeling your oats is an idiom. That means to feel frisky, animated or exuberant, or to feel self-important.
Speaker 1So I did use that correctly too.
Speaker 3School was out and they were feeling their oats. What I still don't understand.
Speaker 1It means you're feeling good, you're feeling ready to be positive and like happy and confident.
Speaker 3Someone who feels newly emboldened yeah, confidence, oh, but also. It could be often behaving in a cocky or arrogant fashion. So you have to be careful.
Speaker 1Yeah, confidence, see, yeah, that's why you're feeling your oat. I heard it and there you go and I used it correctly. Nice, yeah, these are all from like the primitive time when we went to the pioneer village in Salem. I think they made them up back then in 1600s. Yeah, but where did you get this saying to begin with? I heard it somewhere, I don't know.
Speaker 3Interesting.
Speaker 1Maybe it was on TV.
Speaker 3Feeling my oats.
Speaker 1Feeling they're going to make a song about that.
Speaker 3Feeling I don't know, song I don't know. Okay, are we moving on, moving on. Okay, so now some Taylor Swift. Adjacent news Sabrina Carpenter will star in her own Nonsense Christmas special for Netflix.

Speaker 3She was on the nonsense verge of breaking to stardom.
Speaker 1That was yeah. Then the tour she was going on tour with Taylor.

Speaker 1I liked going to London to see her. That was the best. I know I don't want to see her in the USA. I got her in the UK.
Speaker 3Yeah, we're good. Yeah, we're fully realized.
Speaker 1It's better.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1Yeah, so what else?
Interviews With Former Child Stars
Speaker 3Tinker. Okay, so moving on to our next story.
Speaker 1Yeah, another one.
Speaker 3Great. This is about Demi Lovato and the new documentary she has out.
Speaker 1Child celebrity Called Child Star Child.
Speaker 3Star yes, she has a, and it's on Hulu, yes. So there's so many different things that we've learned from this documentary. I don't know, have you watched it?
Speaker 1A little bit.
Speaker 3A little bit, yeah, I actually finished it.
Speaker 1I've been too busy.
Speaker 3I know I just couldn't sleep one night so my paws just kept the TV on.
Speaker 3Oh, so you tell me, what I missed night, so my paws, uh, just kept the, the tv on. Oh, so you tell me what I missed. Um, I thought it was very informative, interesting kind of things, we taking things we knew but also, interestingly, taking accountability. A lot demi was, which was nice, nice was nice to see. Um, she kind of was taking accountability for like what you know she did in regards to, like her punching her backup dancer, like those kind of things.
Speaker 3Yeah, she, got a little wild there for a bit and she was just like very transparent just about how everything went down and how, you know, she didn't really have any guidance and her, you know, her mom, her parents, didn't really have any guidance either.
Speaker 1They didn't know anything about the business.
Speaker 3They didn't, and so it was just this lifelong struggle. I thought the most interesting moment I really liked when she was with Alison Stoner, cause she interviews a bunch of other child stars, but alison stoner was in camp rock and camp rock 2 with demi and apparently, like the first movie, they were very close and were having their own struggles and they confided a lot in each other.
Speaker 3And then, by the time they shot camp rock 2, demi was like huge, like a huge star, like a mega star, and she apologized to Allison in this documentary saying how Well.
Speaker 1it's not her fault, she's a star.
Speaker 3No, no, but because she treated Allison terribly. Oh, because she had an ego. Not just an ego, but just kind of shut out anyone that was caring or wanted to help her anyway, or realized that she was struggling. She completely kind of just blocked them out and was not happy, yeah, and had an ego and was just, yeah, going about her thing and not treating people nice.
Speaker 3And she but she says this in the documentary, which I thought was so at least a lot of taking accountability to what she did yeah, she does remember, but then at the same time she kept saying a lot in the documentary how she doesn't remember a lot, like that whole time is such a blur as well, because she was so unhappy and like so spiraling that it was just this time where she was completely like not. She felt like not even a part of herself, like almost like dissociated because of just everything happening.
Speaker 1Huh, interesting Wasn't she on Bernie with Selena?
Speaker 3She was, yeah, selena is a boom star yeah, um, but then, but she also just talked about. She says, like the negative impact of fame on her mental health like caused a lot like the an incident like where you punch your backup dancer and she just talks, she like reflects on like the explosive moments that came from the negative impact of like fame and just the negative impact of her mental health and she says, like I didn't realize that it would have such a negative impact on my mental health and unfortunately, sometimes that looks explosive like an incident where you punch your backup dancer on an airplane or you overdose on heroin.
Speaker 3so like she's just like, very like transparent throughout the whole thing she's opening up about it yeah and she also, um, she also interviews raven simone, which I think is like really cool, because I feel like raven is a child star but like one that has kind of kept it together, at least in to what like the public sees, but who knows?
Speaker 3yeah, but like then, raven just opens up a lot about, like her, the pressures and everything, and she was working since she was like 16 months old yeah, exactly yeah she was a baby star yeah, and she does say how, like she never thought it was fun because her parents always told her it was work. Like from the beginning you gotta go to work.
Speaker 1Like, yeah, like this is work yeah, like when we go to set. It's work but we love it. And we know it's work but we know it's fun yeah and it's just you know. If you know what it is, yeah, look at it she also interviews christina ricci which is really cool yeah, yeah, and also jojo siwa.
Speaker 3Oh, she's out there and drew barrymore jojo's gone off the deep end. I mean I don't really think so. I think it's just like you know she's doing her own thing. I mean from the interview, honestly she's very normal. It kind of reminds me of so. Is it an act? Well, that's what we talked about when she was on call her daddy. It was like the same kind of vibe yeah, like I was like yes, I think that's.
Speaker 3That's a brand, but that's what she is also talking about to Demi was about how, like she, instead of her being a cartoon or like a character, like she is a character, like her, like she is the character, yeah, so it's hard to like break away from that, so I thought that was interesting. Yeah, oh, belle, you're so feisty. What's happening? I?
Speaker 1need to get a drink.
Speaker 3Oh.
Speaker 1I had him bring a drink with me. Okay, get one. Okay, hold on, I'm going to go get it oh.
Speaker 3Hello, yeah, we're back.
Speaker 1We're back. Sorry, I had to get a drink.
Speaker 3You had to pause for a second. I was coughing.
Speaker 1I was so thirsty.
Speaker 3I was coughing. I need to get a Swiffer in here. There's a little dust in our studio.
Speaker 1Let's get the servants to clean our studio. I wish, yeah. So that's interesting about all those former child stars.
Speaker 3Yes, but anyway, that's the end of my pop culture.
Speaker 1Excellent.
Speaker 3We're moving on to pup let's go pup it up.
Speaker 1We are pup it up first thing for pup culture. Teen volunteer plays piano for New York City shelter pets to help keep them calm and she even takes requests no comment. I'm still listening. And she even takes requests no comment. I'm still listening. At a New York City shelter, rescue pets get bedside lullabies performed live on the piano. By the way, volunteer Zen Micheline Hung makes this luxury possible for the shelter pets. The teenager started donating time to the shelter in New York City's Chelsea neighborhood early in 2024 after the new facility piqued her interest. When I became a teenager, I wanted to make myself useful in the community. She said she, um, who?
Speaker 3Useful's see full of eyes, doggies I know well it's why not.
Speaker 1She has only known life with a pet in her family. Giving her time to animals was an easy choice. I ended up writing an email to volunteer director and I told her that I was a musician who wanted to play music for the shelter pets as a form of music therapy to help reduce any anxiety from being in a new place.
Speaker 3Actually, I love a nice tune.
Speaker 1This is really good.
Speaker 3I love nice music when I have anxiety.
Speaker 1Maybe she could come over here. I know I wanted to make the animals feel as comfortable and happy as possible while they're in the process of finding their forever homes. After a few days she received a response. They replied that this was a beautiful idea and set up the team with the right people to become the volunteer. Like animals, music has been part of her life from an early age. She started playing piano when she was four and continues to practice daily. She got the idea to play music for shelter pets after remembering how her dogs reacted to her piano skills. They would just sleep or rest looking around calmly and be by my feet when I played for hours. That's true though, yeah, so anyway, let's see the part where she gets requests. Yeah, she started playing for the animals and also my main question is what would you request Belle?
Speaker 3Swifty music. What do you think? What would you request Belle?
Speaker 1Swifty music.
Speaker 3What do?
Speaker 1you think, I think, I'd request some classic Broadway. Yeah, so she, I'm this article's so long.
Speaker 3It's okay, we get the, we get the point.
Speaker 1I want to see why she she likes. I mean, we know she's volunteering. Anyway, yeah, we get the point. She takes requests from the people. I'm sure the dogs aren't telling her what to play.
Speaker 3How does she communicate with the dogs to get the requests?
Speaker 1I don't know We'll have to continue reading the people. We'll attach the article to the.
Speaker 3Maybe she writes two different song titles and then whatever their paw hits is a request.
Speaker 1Could be, but they all seem to like it.
Speaker 3Not her paw, sorry, the dog's paw.
Speaker 1Yeah, they like it very much.
Speaker 3Oh, I can imagine. I mean it's very calming. Yeah, it's like I like having the TV on if I'm home alone.
Speaker 1Yeah, we keep TV on, I'm telling you. That's where I hear those old 1600 sayings Okay, I do, okay, next story.
Speaker 3Next story.
Speaker 1Hero firefighters use pet CPR to save a dog caught in Utah apartment building fire.
Speaker 2Oh.
Speaker 1So there's a thing called pet CPR. What's?
Speaker 3the difference between.
Speaker 1I would think a pet CPR is the tools are shaped for our faces as opposed to a round human face.
Speaker 3I don't think CPR included oxygen things. Isn't CPR like?
Speaker 1physical. Read the article.
Rescued Dogs and DNA Reunion
Speaker 1A Utah dog is safe and sound, thanks to a group of firefighters and some pet CPR. First responders from Unified Fire Authority responded to an apartment building in fire in Midvale, Utah, where they found a dog in need of urgent life-saving first aid. According to the outlet, they responded to the scene of the apartment fire at 5.30 pm. They saw flames coming out of each of the building's units. After the firefighters extinguished the blazes and determined that no residents were harmed in the fire, at least no human ones. While the units were almost entirely vacant, a dog was found unresponsive in a kennel inside one of the apartments. The canine was removed from the building, taken outside where the crews administered life-saving pet CPR. They documented the critical moment on their social media posts, including photos of firefighters holding the pup and using a mask to provide the dog with continuous oxygen flow. Oh, okay. The final photo showed the dog sitting up after the CPR and receiving a pat on the head. Oh, fabulous.
Speaker 1Not all heroes wear capes. Sometimes they carry leashes. Today, Company 110 had the incredible opportunity to rescue a dog from the fire. Great yeah, so they did CPR.
Speaker 3I love a good rescue.
Speaker 1Yeah, so he's okay. He barked, he's okay, they got cuddles and he's 13. There we go. So see that Everybody gets rescued by these firemen. Yes, they do so. We know heaven forbid we're ever in a fire. We know someone will help us and find us.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 1Yeah, and my third and final story for pup culture. Third and final, here we go, here we go, here we go, here we go.
Speaker 1Sister dogs separated as puppies oh, reunite and help save third sibling from euthanasia thanks to a DNA test. Wait what? This is an exclusive story, look, look at them. Now let's read the story Three close-knit canines from Texas separated from one another as young dogs, continuing their story together in Michigan after a DNA test helped reunite the animals.
Speaker 1The happy ending started when Jackie Novak and her boyfriend Josh decided to adopt a rescue dog as a companion for the Labrador Retriever Ellie. After meeting several dogs through the almost home animal rescue leave of West Bloomfield, michigan, the couple decided to adopt Sweet Winnie, a pup brought to the Michigan rescue from an overcrowded shelter in Texas. She is a very playful, loyal, happy outgoing dog. Before adopting winnie, they purchased an embarked dna test because they love the idea of finding out what the true breed and background of whatever rescue dog fit their family best. Winnie took the dna test shortly after arriving at their new home. Novak was shocked to find that Winnie was composed of a mix of large breed dogs, even though the pup was 30 pounds. The pet parent was also surprised that Winnie, her shelter dog from Texas, has a relative dog living nearby in Michigan. What Embark DNA includes a relative finder feature that alerts you if dogs are directly related to your tested pet, have also submitted dna tests through the site. So it's like um, what's that one? The human one?
Speaker 3ancestry dna. This sounds like an ad, though, for embark it's not, are you?
Speaker 1sure yeah look, no, I know, like is this article sponsored by embark.
Speaker 3No, oh, it's not, are you sure? Yeah, look, no, I know, like is this article sponsored by Embark? It's not.
Speaker 1No, oh wow, it's not sponsored at all. It's just saying that they actually found each other and then found they had a third one in there they are all together now. So see, it does work. I wonder so that's like the ancestry DNA for humans?
Speaker 3Belle, maybe you should do it.
Speaker 1I don't think I want to know anything, though.
Speaker 2I'm good here with you.
Speaker 3Tink. I'm good here too.
