>> i had so much fun yesterday. i hate photo sessions, it's like my least favorite thing. but yesterday i actually i had the best photo session i ever had in my life. we were up at my house up in connecticut because my dogs and i are going to be cover dogs, if you know what i mean. i call us four dumb blonds. but we'll be on the cover of "life and dog" magazine which i tell you it will be in july. the photographer was bret chisholm. the pr was his partner, ryan rice. wait a minute. that's bambino. oh, my gosh, it was so much fun. the next one? >> hello. >> there we are on the sofa. you know it was unbelievable. they all got groomed and it was okay, they all jumped up on the sofa, did exactly what they were supposed to do.
2:07 am
>> someone's favored child. >> just gave my photographer what he wanted. they were so nice. they came to the house and gave them some lunch. i asked if anybody want a glass of wine. about six people said yes, please. i said you love wine, you love dogs, i love you. so it was, it was great fun and i thank them. >> when is it coming out? >> in july. >> this is a little -- this next story is a little creepy. >> it's related but in a weird, bad way. >> you know when you lose a pet it's like losing a family member for a lot of people. it's very devastating. you wonder what should i do. there's a group out there that will freeze dry your pet so that you can keep it in the house in any expression you want. okay. i know it sounds weird. look what they do. this is a pet who has passed away. >> you would never know it.
2:08 am
>> they put it in this machine and made it like this. it stays in this expression, they say forever. >> how about this one? >> how about here? >> this is creeping me out to no -- this is creeping me out. >> it's very expensive. it costs hundreds of dollars for small animals, thousands for larger dogs and takes a month. you know, the ones where they're sleeping like that, it's still weird. but i cremate my dogs. >> this is different. >> the fact that their eyes are open. it's so life like. >> that's creepy. >> we would love to know how you feel about it. i understand the love of -- you never want to give up your pets. it's devastating. >> but let it go. you have to let it go. >> but would it work for people? not that i'm thinking of anyone in particular but -- if they
2:09 am
perfect that, i'm going to -- >> no, no. >> i'm going to give it a try. >> let's talk about this for one second. the idea you would have your dog in an expression that you know so when you walk in from work and there's the dog sitting there, you need to let go. >> you think you need a psychiatrist. >> i think you need a shrink. it's a little bit weird to me. >> please send your emails to hoda. we would love to hear what you think. >> just think about that picture of the freeze dried dog with the eyes open. >> it's just hard to believe. >> i have a friend, dear friend, they are great white hunters, which is not my thing at all. they have a gorgeous home in arizona. they know who they are. we went one time to stay with them. i'll tell you, they have shot every animal -- they go to the north pole and shoot a polar bear. it's done with permits and completely legal but they have a room in their house which has every single one of them.
2:10 am
when we went to stay when the kids were little that was the room that they stayed in. they were like this all night long. lions and tigers and bears and polar bears. it was unbelievable. >> okay, now here's something. we've all been to the movie theaters and when you go to buy your snacks. >> and bad enough the tickets are expensive. then you want a snack. >> and they're outrageously priced. this upset one guy. he decided to sue his amc local cinema, because he found he was paying for goobers and a coke, he paid $8 in the theater. >> what size coke? >> a big one. then he went to the drugstore and got the exact same thing for like $2.73. it's price gouging. they know you're stuck. like the hurricane when they sell batteries for triple the price. it's not fair. this guy was suing because he was saying these people are taking advantage of the situation. >> apparently most legal eagles
2:11 am
believe it won't stand up in court but i think what should not stand up in court that they can keep you from bringing in what you like yourself. if you want to bring in your own goobers that you got at the drugstore, a lot of people bring in their own goobers, if you know what i mean. i think you have the right and the constitution to, if you can bear arms why can't you bear goobers. >> you should be able to. think about it. you get a popcorn and coke or popcorn and combo it's between $10 and $13. you take a family to the movies, it's ridiculous. >> joanna took her little boy and two friends and then she gave them $30 to go get a treat they all got a little drink and a treat. $30. mom we need $4 more. it is just wrong. you know what make a profit but don't rip people off. >> yeah. they make a lot of profit. you know the other thing you
2:12 am

2:13 am
her. they arrested her and locked her up for ten hours. >> it gave her lots of time to dry her nails. >> the bottom line is the charges were dropped because they decided that there was nova lidty to them. that's an interesting thing people doing things on planes that are smelly. eating things -- >> they don't serve food on many airlines anymore, so people are bringing in their own goobers, but not just that. they are bringing garlic linguine and clams. salad with bleu cheese address and onions. when they are bringing them on. they come in with a backpack and a pizza. >> i always want a piece. they don't share. that's what makes you crazy. >> it's a confined space and, you know, you got to be respectful to the other
2:14 am
passengers but you're hungry. we were on a flight to the bahamas and a girl was painting her nails and the flight attendant quickly came on the p.a. whoever is painting their nails, please stop. we can really smell it. >> did she put it away? >> she did, yeah. >> there's some people that are thoughtless because on purpose you don't give a rip. and there's thoughtless because you don't realize it could be offensive to people. >> yeah. exactly. >> think i'm guilty at one point on a plane, but i was snagging everything. >> how about people who clip their nails in public places. >> i don't mind that but toe nails. >> that's disgusting. when ever i see that -- >> you know what the worse thing ever. my manicurist jackie who has done it all, seen it all, not her first rodeo. this is so gross. >> say it. we have to know it. >> she was doing a woman's
2:15 am
pedicure and they were in foul shape. i'm talking foul. she went to clean out the toes and the toe jam shot up in her mouth. >> that's the sickest -- that's sick. what made you tell that story? >> because you were talking about nails. >> toe jam. you should never say it on the show. >> toe jam. i'm sorry for those of you at home eating your cheerios. can you imagine? she could get some sort of -- [ boing sound ] >> what is that supposed to sneen >> i don't know. >> it's a true story. >> here's a question. do you like it better when your man has a beard or when he's clean shaven? there's a new study out that says that women strongly prefer men who are clean shaven as opposed to bears. they think facial hair makes them look older, less attractive. in hollywood you see them a lot. you see them for parts and you see them with --
