The Queens take a bite out of nostalgia and end up with a mouthful of disappointment. In this episode, Trey presents a scathing 1 Star Yelp Review of NYC’s iconic Magnolia Bakery—specifically the once-revered banana pudding. Is it still worthy of the Sex and the City fame, or has it lost all its flavor?

Before the pudding meltdown, Chelsey logs a customer service complaint we all can relate to—being trapped in the purgatory of endless department transfers. Then it’s time for the Review Breakdown, where Chef Earth E. spills the (spoiled?) tea on cupcakes that taste like chemicals, banana pudding made of “whipped air,” and the death of culinary pride.

(00:53):
Here at review.
That Review, we believe in balance,the good, the bad, the vecchi.
So it is only fair that we take a quicklittle moment up top to vetch it out.
Chelsey, would you like to
lodge a complaint?
I would try.
I would like to lodgea complaint, actually.

(01:14):
Mm-hmm.
I need to lodge a complaint, butI think first I'm gonna need to
transfer you to another department.
Before you can lodge the Wait.
No, no, no.
Actually, let's transfer you backto that initial department and
then you can lodge the, no, no, no.
Actually there's a third departmentthat you should have been.
I don't know why they transferredyou to that other department before,

(01:34):
because they should have actuallytransferred you to this third department.
I'm so sorry about that.
I don't know why they would'vedone that to begin with.
Let me transfer you tothe third department.
Oh, you know what, actually,you know what you need.
You need that first departmentthat you originally ta.
No, no.
Get it together.
I cannot stand a neverending customer service loop.

(01:59):
Who is it that I'm supposed to talk to?
I literally was doing this the other daywith like my doctor and the pharmacy and
like I was, I was coordinating things andthey kept like transferring me all over
and then I'm like, no, no, no, no, no.
This is where I'm supposed to be.
And I had to like insist thatthey not transfer me out.
Stay on the phone with them, give themlike a whole list of information as

(02:23):
to why this was the proper department.
Mm-hmm.
Before they actually looked it up,looked up my information, and then
they were like, oh, yeah, you're right.
Actually, that person does work here.
Let me transfer you over there.
What the f?
Mm-hmm.
Angry.
Angry.
So angry.
Why?
Why does this keep happening?

(02:45):
It's a very good complaint.
I feel like.
Incompetence.
I have a very low threshold for,
yeah, same.
And there, it just feel, anytimeyou have to call customer service,
it always feels like you're justlike the ball in a tennis match.
Like you're just being battedaround, oh my God, no one
actually wants to deal with you.

(03:06):
I, I try to avoid customerservice as much as possible.
I know, especially whenthere is that whole like.
Oh, I don't know why you were sent here.
It's like, oh my God.
I don't either.
I'd rather you not even say it.
Don't even say it.
Right.
Don't even say it because then what?
I'm supposed to thinkyou're my hero, right?
Like, what are you, Mariah Carey?
All of a sudden you're my hero and I'msupposed to be like thanking you for

Chelsey, I'm very curious whenyou think about New York City.
Okay.

like a main character of the show?
Seinfeld.
Yes.

(04:53):
Sex in the city.
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
Friends.
Okay.
Now, uniquely Seinfeld and friendswere both filmed, not in New York,
you're right.
But Sex

Okay.
I got really excited for a second.
If you were planning a trip to New York

And as part of the Sex and the City tour.
Yeah.
If you didn't do that, but youwere gonna create your own, what

(05:35):
are some institutions from Sex andthe City that have become infamous
and famous from Sex in the City?
I feel like Magnolia Bakery.
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Today you and I are gonna be ratingand reviewing a one star Yelp review.
Four.
Okay.
Magnolia Bakery.
Ooh, very good.

(05:56):
I I do like Magnolia.
Well, certain things about it.
Okay.
We'll get to it.
Yeah.
There was actually aspinoff of Sex in the City.
It was called just like that before that.
It was called the Carrie
Diaries
and yours, and you were on
that.
Yours truly was on the Carrie Diaries.
That's right.

(06:16):
Where I had to tell a teenage Carriethat her friend was dying of aids.
Thank you.
Oh, Martin.
Hey, that out.
If anyone wants an autograph, I'm here.
I was gonna
say, and the Golden Globe goes to
me, Trey
Gerald.
For the Carrie Diaries.

(06:37):
Um, okay, here we go.
So, okay.
If anyone like doesn't know, like, Idon't, if you don't know Magnolia Bakery
Fair, but if you don't know Sex inthe City, I don't know how you are in
the review, that review at Atmosphere.
To be fair,
I don't know how you found yourself here.
Correct.
But, um, let us
know in the comments.

(06:57):
But yeah, so Magnolia Bakery existedbut totally popped off because the
girls would go there on the show.
So.
There are like four or fivelocations actually in the city,
which I didn't even realize.
My like, favorite, hilariousone is there's actually one
in the Grand Central terminal.
Um, and um, that's actuallywhere this one is coming from.

(07:17):
So
I feel like there's so manythings at Grand Central.
Every time I come into Grand Central,I'm like, and there's a Z Bars here.
Yes.
Right.
You know,
like there's just like somany things down there.
There's that
like famous oyster barthat's down there too.
Yeah.
Which is so weird way.
I think they're
just like, people come to NewYork and they're like, you know
what, you could just stay here.
We got it all.
Let's do it all.
Yeah,
yeah.

(07:37):
Okay, so here we go.
So, Magnolia Bakery, one star Yelp review.
This is actually written by Chef Earth
and um, they have 397 reviews on Yelp.
Wow.
Okay.
And they've
included 563 images.
Okay.
Do we have an image here?

(07:58):
We do not.
Oh.
Well, I know this was written overfour years ago when I screenshotted
this, which was probably two years ago.
Okay.
Here we are, chef Earth's onestar Yelp pur for Magnolia.
I would give zero stars if I could.
Mm-hmm.
I have been eating MagnoliaBanana pudding for over 10 years,

(08:20):
Los Angeles, and mostly ny.
Today I was at Grand Central Terminal.
And got a medium banana pudding.
Basically it was whipped cream witha lot puff air, maybe a half vanilla

(08:43):
wafer and whole container and a fewbits, and I mean, tiny bits of banana.
Mm-hmm.
Rip off.
What a joke.
$7 whipped cream and not even organic.

(09:06):
Barely tasted the banana
so upset.
The cupcakes shrunk years ago.
And the recipe changed years ago,so I stopped eating them as they
are not the same as years ago.

(09:27):
And they taste like chemicals now,so don't bother with bad cupcakes.
I would say to friends,get the banana pudding.
It's the best.
Well, today you ruined the lastgood thing you have on menu.
Sadly, I am sure you don't care.

(09:47):
Magnolia Bakery is a corporationand not a good bakery.
In New York,
there are a zillion really goodcupcake shops and bakeries that still
take pride in what they make so long.
Magnolia Bakery.

(10:08):
I will make my own pudding now.
I will go elsewhere for cupcakes witha whole box of vanilla wafers and
make it organic, as well as organicwhipped cream and organic bananas.
It's easy and you will have themagic that long ago existed with

(10:30):
the old Magnolia once upon a time.
DIY, banana Pudding Recipe online.
Okay.
Okay.
So everyone watching on YouTube, you cansee how this is formatted, but just so
you can see why I read it the way that Iread it, I think chef, chef earthy really,

(10:56):
really is into hitting that inter button.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
So it's, it's, it's, uh, it's a lotof, it's like, um, an Ee Cummings
poem or something like that.
Which now that I look at it becausethis is a chef, like when I first
found this review, I didn't clock thatthe name is chef, but like to be like

(11:18):
I'm making my own now is so funny.
But like if you're achef, you're not a baker.
It's different.
But like you, it looks visuallylike a recipe to me with all
these spaces and these enters.
I mean, and Okay, interesting.
'cause I was gonna say recipeonline, was it like linked to
their website or something?
But like, am I just supposed to searchfor Chef Earth E. Banana pudding recipe.

(11:41):
I mean recipe online.
Where are they?
Just saying Google.
Google making your own banana pudding.
I think it could beeither of those scenarios.
Either they're trying to pimpthemselves out or I think they're
saying you can just, there areDIY Banana pudding recipes online.
I'm gonna look, but why isthere an enter in between?
I don't know.
Also like it's like a menu maybe.

(12:05):
Like off of like just going through likethe spelling grammar on this is wild.
Like it's legible but it's just a veryspecific style and I don't know if that's
like, I don't know if Chef Earthy is likean older person or, or I don't understand
how, like if you look at today I was atGrand Central Terminal, no Caps Anywhere

(12:27):
and got a medium enter banana, enter.
Capital P pudding, like,I don't understand.
And then it's like basicallyenter it was search cream.
Like what?
But maybe it's because they wanna like,like you've read it, they want to tell

(12:47):
you like how to, like I got a medium
right.
Banana pudding.
Well, it makes sense.
Not
a, not vanilla pudding.
I got a medium banana.
Pudding.
Like, it's just like,it's really, well, it
reads that way later where it says ripoff.
What a joke.

(13:08):
$7 whip cream.
Yeah.
Not even arga.
Like I get that.
I like, yeah, like,
it's like, it's like a,it's like a Jan Brady.
Like, I don't know.
Everyone like,
yes.
She like
goes crazy.
Yes.
Wasn't RuPaul in the Brady Bunch movie?
It was in both of them.
Moha, Moha, Moha.
Yeah, exactly.
Um.
Um, so anyway, I, sorry for that.

(13:30):
Digress.
I digress.
So,
at the beginning yousaid only certain things.
So what are your thingsabout Mag Magnolia?
Yes.
So a hundred percent the
bread pudding, like I banana always foundthe magnolia cupcakes to be way too sweet.
Mm-hmm.
Like, it's not even that there was somuch frosting, there was like a lot
of frosting on the cupcake, but thefrosting itself, I remember being like.

(13:51):
Wow, this is like a cavity in a frosting.
Like it was like sacranthorrible, too sweet for me.
But the bread pudding was delicious.
Bread ping.
I'm sorry, but
you, you said that twice,
did I?
Yeah.
I like bread pudding too, but Imeant, but the banana pudding.

(14:11):
The banana pudding, it was delicious.
That's like so upsetting to me because.
I was in college, you know, we werein college on the same time, so like
around 2009, 2008, I was going andgetting this banana pudding for my
birthday and stuff, and it was likea decadent treat, like, oh my God.

(14:32):
The Magnolia?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
In fact, I actually boughtthe Magnolia Cookbook.
Mm-hmm.
Just because I wanted to have therecipe of this banana pudding, like.
Well, I'll tell you as a southern person,banana pudding is like when you go to
a Chinese buffet in South Carolina,they have six little things of dessert

(14:55):
and it's always banana pudding, likethat's how serious banana pudding is.
In the south, you will alwaysfind n wafer banana pudding.
It is like a thing.
So Magnolia like took it up.
To like the stratosphere?
Yes.
So much so that when my sister hadher first baby shower, I was actually

(15:16):
living in la It was when Chelseyand I met each other and there is a
Magnolia bakery in West Hollywood.
Is it West Hollywood?
No,
I think it's Beverly Hill.
It's something
near that breakfast place.
It doesn't matter.
Um, and I organized it beingdelivered to Charlotte, North
Carolina for her baby shower.

(15:38):
Yeah.
And it was such a hit because.
Obviously that's the right demographic islike these girls Southern that are having
babies that like are in their thirties,like baby shower is gonna be Magnolia.
Um, but I'll tell you,this is some realty.
Anyone that's listening, if youever go to New York, go to Magnolia,

(16:01):
like for the nostalgia and whatever,but there is a rival company.
I wouldn't even call them Rival.
There's another bakery.
It's called Billy's Bakery.
There's about four of Billy.
Billy.
Billy, like the killerand scream One Billy?
Yeah, Billy
Billy's bakery.
There's three or four of them.
Their banana pudding is so much better.

(16:24):
Really,
I can't even describe it.
Also, their cupcakes are not disgusting.
They also are.
Vegan friendly.
Magnolia doesn't do anything.
They don't accommodateany allergies at all.
They don't do anything at all.
Which part of me is like,that's kind of badass.
But it's also like what?

(16:44):
Like we're in a culture of like,like they don't even do a nut
allergy version, so like Right.
They don't accommodate, um,which we're gonna circle back
to, but um, check out Billy's.
Okay.
Um, but yeah, the banana pudding.
Is I live and die.
If I'm gonna go to Magnolia,I'm gonna get banana pudding.

(17:04):
I'm not trifling withany of those cupcakes.
It's not
vegan.
The pudding, the bananapudding is not vegan.
Nothing at Bill.
Nothing at Magnolia is vegan.
No, no.
You're saying the bills.
The bills is banana pudding is,
I don't know why you keep cutting up.
Why
Billy's Banana pudding is not vegan.

(17:25):
No, I'm sure that it's not.
No.
'cause there's egg.
Yeah.
But they have vegan options.
Sorry.
Magnolia doesn'taccommodate any specialty.
They don't have any non options.
Nothing on the menu, anything.
Right.
They don't do anything at all toaccommodate anyone who has any issue.
Right.
Whereas Billy's has options.
Right, right, right.
Okay.
So
I mean, this is personally upset, like I'mgetting riled up because what this was,

(17:50):
when did you say this review was written?
Years
ago.
Over four years ago Ago.
This couple years ago ago.
But
still.
I'm trying to think of the lasttime that I had like banana pudding
for Magnolia and it was probablylike pe, like pre pandemic.
So that has gotta be over five years ago.

(18:11):
And if this is what has becomeof Magnolia Bread pudding,
uh, why do we keep doing that?
I dunno if what has become a magnoliabanana pudding, I am very upset.
And I will say that a lot of thereviews talk about a decline,

(18:31):
which I don't know, that's justsomething I wonder, say, do they
sell?
They sell to like a corporation?
They must have,
I don't know.
Because they're calling, thechef is calling it out as being,
but how don't, do we know?
Who knows?
Is that true?
Who knows?
Oh, they, they're a chef.
What did you think about overly hitting a,well, first of all, we have to point out

(18:54):
before anything else that we started with,like the most cliched line of course.
Right.
Um, if I could give it zero star, I would.
And then what do we think aboutthe organic banana organic
pudding or like, I mean, obviouslythis is, you know, chef earthy.
Yeah.

(19:14):
Chef Earth.
So clearly they care about, what did youthink about them hitting us with that?
Oh, that's so funny.
Earth.
Um, I don't know.
I mean, it's, it, it seems to me, takingthis at face value, if we are assuming
that Chef Earth is only telling truths.
For it to not be organic.

(19:35):
Also seems weird to me.
I mean, we're in a culture wherepeople are consumed with allergies
and we're consumed with health.
So like to be a bakery operating in2025 and to not be organic and to not
have other options seems odd to me.
And the fact that like, we'recharging a pretty penny.
It's not like we're charging,you know, this is like cheap

(19:58):
street food or something.
No offense to.
Straight food, which is great, butwhen you're going to an establishment
like this and you're paying a lot ofmoney, I think, yeah, you do probably
expect organic or local ingredients.
Certainly Chef Earth does,
and to this point, like therewas maybe half of a vanilla wafer

(20:18):
and then tiny bits of banana.
I have personally.
Been affected by Regina George.
I have felt that where it's like,and I don't know if that's an issue
with scooping out in the vat, right?
Because you're just getting a littlecontainer, but like you gotta have
multiple wafers on the top andyou have to have a lot of banana.
It's banana.
Figure it out.

(20:39):
Yeah, figure it out.
That's just unacceptable.
I would be so upset also because it's.
First of all, a few things.
One, because it's such a decadentthing and it's such a distinct flavor
that when you're going for magnoliabanana pudding, there's nothing worse
than like being like, I'm gonna do it.

(20:59):
I'm gonna like do a littlelike treat for myself.
And you dig on in there and you areexpecting it to taste a certain way,
and then it tastes like whipped cream.
I would be so upset.
So I wanna totally validate that.
And then I wanna also give a nodto the, there's a zillion places,
there's a zillion places in New York.

(21:20):
I mean, obviously trees bring ups but it's true when you're in
New York City, like, come on babe.
Yeah, there's like a dime a dozen youcould find, I'm sure a million places that
have banana pudding, that have cupcakes.
Keep up with the times.
Okay.
Like people are gonna give upon you, Magnolia, if you keep.

(21:41):
It's the sex in the city of itall is only gonna last so long.
Even with, and that's, youknow, and just like that.
Well, that's what I'm thinking too.
It's like, that's why I only mentionthat they don't accommodate allergies
and stuff because it is sort of likeyou're just pushing business away.
Like at least have one gluten-free.
Brownie or something.
Like do something, I don't know.

(22:03):
Right.
It's your prerogative or like
rest on your laurels and that like,no, that's just not who we are,
but have the most amazing products.
That's right.
Because it is to the pointyou, you look really like we
both know.
There's certain restaurants thatare like no substitutions, babe.
Like that's not happening.
But if that's gonna be your stance,then it better be damn good.

(22:26):
And there better be a reason for thefact that, you know, certain people
in the population can't go there.
'cause that's just not your thing.
You know?
I can find a respect for that somewhere.
Correct.
But,
well that okay.
But that's okay.
You still have to
have good product.
But do we, it seems likewe're being triggered.
So do we think that.

(22:46):
Chef Earth is like telling the truth.
Are they being shady?
I think that they're, I believe them.
I don't know why I believe them.
I don't know if it's the factthat they have chef in their name.
I think not, because I think thatmade me sort of like turned off like,
Ugh, am I gonna be like proselytizedto by a quote unquote chef?
So I don't know, but I.

(23:08):
But I, 'cause I considered not sayingchef and just saying, see earthy.
Yeah.
Because I think it is influencing us.
'cause it's right, they may not be achef like this may not be Paula Dean.
This might be someone whois like a home chef, but
they're talking about cooking and recipes.
I know.
You know, I guess this is the forumwith which to complain about this.

(23:31):
Like if you feel like the qualityis declining constantly, that that,
then you're like, okay, I can'teven go here for cupcakes anymore.
I tell all my friends,you can't even do that.
The only thing left is this pudding.
Then you get the pudding and it'slike there's two bananas in here.
Like,
yeah, this is like, for me, this isvaluable information because like I said,

(23:51):
haven't been there in a while and I'vecompletely been that person when Magnolia
comes up that I'm like, you know what?
I'm not even into the cupcakes, butI love the banana pudding and I said
that even when you started this review,like, oh, I love, but not everything,
so I can see myself in Chef Earth.
Yeah, so
that's valuable.

(24:11):
It also makes, I understand that maybeyou could see this as shady 'cause we're
really talking down about Magnolia.
But I do think that it'struthful and I gotta be honest,
I think it's probably common.
I know, and I'm, I'm entertained.
I think the grammatical setupis a little not spectacular.

(24:32):
Yes.
I mean, I think
we pointed out that this is likea interesting way of structuring.
Um, but it drives it home to me
in a way.
It
does sort of drive it home and maybeit is a stylistic choice, and I am
entertained in the fact that clearlyI'm like, heated up about this.
You wanna crown it?

(24:52):
Let's do it.
Chelsey and I each have our ownset of zero to five crown cards.
In an effort to be fair and notbanana influence one another, we will
simultaneously reveal our ratings.
The queens are tabulating
total school.
Okay?
I am holding up four and a halfcrowns trays, holding up four crowns.

(25:14):
I literally was just holdingup four crowns, and then I
bumped it up to four and a half
was holding four and ahalf, and I bumped it down.
Yeah,
because you know what?
I'm super influenced by this.
Like this has changed me.
I think if I go to New York, I'm notgonna be having Magnolia's banana.
I mean, I don't need it.
I live in la, but like I'm not orderingmagnolia's banana pudding anymore.

(25:35):
That's it.
It's the end of an era forme, based on this review.
I don't, it's such a decadent treat tome, and it has such a. Like specific
memory for me that I don't wanna ruin it.
And that is really impactful.
And so I had to go withnearly a review queen here.
I took off half Crown because, uh,I wasn't really sure if we were

(25:58):
a little bit pretentious with thechef, which is maybe not fair.
But other than that, I thought this wasa pretty queenly review and definitely
left me feeling a certain kind of way.
So four and a half crowns,Trey went with four.
Why four?
Everything you just said.
I feel like since we know they'veattached 563 images Mm. Will you attach
a couple images of like no wafers andlike literally no chunks of banana?

(26:21):
Um, I four.
I mean, I agree.
Like I'm very influenced.
It does make, like, I feel likeChef is pointing out like once
upon a time, y'all, it's over.
This
was the move and it's not,now it's not even organic
and it's not good for you.
Like just go make your own.
Yeah,
totally.
There's a reply.

(26:45):
Okay.
All
right, so we have a quick reply here now.
Okay.
To speak to a question you had before,I don't know if the business owner
is different, but this is Bobby L,but there were some re responses
from someone with a different name.
Okay.
Um, that were labeledbusiness owner, so Got it.

(27:06):
Bobby l, business owner.
Good afternoon.
Thank you for your feedback.
We're sorry to know that youwere so disappointed with the
pudding on your recent visit.

(27:28):

to clarify, we have never claimedthat our ingredients are organic.
All the best mb
the fricking receipt.
Do you think that somebody'sgonna save the receipt?
Like gimme a fricking break, but

(27:50):
maybe you
could
show in your credit
card I could show my creditcard, but I don't have a receipt.
Like I can proof a purchase.
To
me, I think that is so enraging.

which is like eye roll, then like, justbe like, send us your email because we'd
love to, you know, get you a proper.
Putting in the future.

(28:30):
I mean, they don't even say
why.
They just say, if you have a moment,email us and mention your review.
They don't even say what they're gonna do.
I mean, mention
your review, why, so that we canbribe you into taking it down.
Right.
Or we can Google search you andthen kill you when you're sleeping.
Yeah, I don't get it.
Yeah.
No, I mean I, not a very effective reply.

(28:51):
I don't think it's
a good reply.
It feels very like formulaic, like thisis like, we just always copy paste this.
And then at the end, it's kindof like baller to be like, we'd
never claimed to be organic.
So I don't know why you're bringing itup, but it's also, also in conjunction,
it feels shady as fuck to be like, okay,like you obviously, I don't know, it
feels below the belt to me in a way.

(29:12):
Yeah, it does.
Because it's like, but it's,but conversely, but it's also,
yeah, I don't know.
And it
also goes along with their whole.
Mentality of like, wedon't abide by allergies.
We don't say we're organic, wedon't, we do what we want and how
we want, when we want, whatever.
But it is funny to me, like whenI was reading it and my lips made
the consonants, but to be like,we're so sorry to know you were

(29:35):
disappointed with the pudding.
Like we're talking about pudding.
You guys we're talking
about pudding.
You're right, you're right.
That's funny.
I don't,
I don't really need to crown this.
I think it, I don't need to crown it.
It's not a very strong, I think it's not
in a. It doesn't, it doesn't, uh, tip thescales in the direction of the business.
No.
It's like whatever.
Yeah.
Well, chef earthy, if you openup your own bakery, let us know.
Okay?
Totally.

(29:56):
Please.
Well, we have done it.
We have aired our grievances.
We've inspected a review.
So Chelsey, now I'd love for you to shinea light on something truly deserving
of a crown 'cause we have reached themost regal portion of today's show.
Who are you inducting today for?
My royal line is, thanks for asking, Trey.

(30:18):
I am inducting that moment when youare, maybe you're running a little bit
late, maybe you're meeting a friend fordinner, whatever it is, you're driving
over there and you get to the locationwhere you're supposed to be, and just
as you pull up to wherever it is thatyou're going, somebody else is pulling
outta the parking spot right in front.

(30:40):
The timing of the universejust works out perfectly.
They're not slow.
They're not jiggling their keys,they're not looking at their phone.
They just happen to be pullingout at the exact same mo
moment that you're pulling in.
Maybe they even left a littlemoney for you on the meter.
It's still flashing green.
That is like winning the lottery.

(31:00):
That is such a goodfeeling when that happens.
I just thought, I happened to methe other day and I was like, I
gotta induct this cosmic beautifulmoment as my royal highness.
I love getting a good parking space,
especially when you feel likeyou're getting one over on the

(31:22):
universe when there's like $6.
I
know you're like, yes.
Perfect.
All right.
Well we did a queen.
The good, the bad, and the covet.

not the same.

the banana in half, right down the middle,but they don't give you all four parts.
