Thank you for listening to this podcast one production available on Apple podcasts and podcast one
From Vanderpump Rules to Vegas and everywhere in between, it's time to party with Sheena Shea.
This is Shenanigans.
And now, here's your host, Sheena Shea.
We're good as gold.
Because we're good as gold.
Hey, hey, back in studio.
We have a very, very special co-host with me today.
So my regular co-host, Miss Janet Elizabeth X, as we know, has gotten herself not one, not two, but three new jobs.
So she is a busy bee.
She'll be here when she can.
We'll still do some drinking and podcasting.
But for today, we have my amazing mother, Erica.
Hi.
Hi.
Welcome back.
It's been a while since you've been here.
I know.
Thanks for having me back.
Yeah.
I mean, it's the only way I can get you to listen to the podcast is if you're actually
on the podcast or your other daughter is on the podcast.
That's not true.
That's pretty much true.
What was the last podcast you listened to of mine?
The one with Erica.
Costell and Courtney Aaron, your daughter.
Oh, yeah.
And my other daughter.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
But in my defense, I don't always listen back,
because for most of them, I was maybe sitting out there in the peanut gallery.
You noticed you were past tense, and you said you were here.
Anyways, thanks for having me.
Yeah, well, thanks for being here.
We have two super fun guests, two ladies I've known for, I don't know what,
four years now.
I was still married.

Julie Goldman
and Brandy Howard

My Aunt Suzy's in the corner watching.

That makes me feel at home because I have a Suze, too.
Yeah, that's right.
Perfect.
Perfect.
You know what I mean?
So it feels.
We also know, we do know Erica.
Yes.
For the same amount of time.
You are frozen in time.
Both of you, too. Botox. She doesn't do anything. Gorgeous same amount of time. You are frozen in time. Both of you two. Aw.
Botox.
She doesn't do anything.
Gorgeous.
Scared.
I, 20 years younger, have to do Botox, which, do you see how much my forehead's moving right now?
You don't have to.
That reminds me.
I need to text my doctor.
She's literally texting right now.
I need to text my doctor.
I need to send my doctor a message.
Make sure, Dr. Armani.
I meant to do it earlier.
I was like, wait, I need to make my bowtie.
Forehead is moving.
It's moving too much.
Can't have lines.
How is your sister?
How is your other daughter?
She's good.
She's doing good?
Yeah, she's busy.
Super busy.
Wasn't she in high school?
She was.
She's 22 now.

This is why I hate when people have kids.
Because they grow up and you're like, ew, that's disturbing.
It's crazy. Super busy. Doing great. I hate when people have kids. Because they grow up and you're like, ew, that's disturbing. It's crazy.
Super busy, doing great, and
yeah, she's happy traveling,
loving her job, making good money.
That's awesome. Well, that's great.
Yeah. Yeah, what about Janet?
Apparently Janet has four jobs. Janet has three jobs.
Yeah, so. She's too busy
to come into this job. She really is.
I mean, I guess she considers this
one of her three jobs.
But she's also doing
personal assistant work right now
and she's working at a Pilates studio.
So she's got a day job, she's got a night job
and then she has a boyfriend now.
So that's her fourth job.
She doesn't get paid for this one
so this is just her hobby.
Keeping the body
snatched at Pilates. Well well we're happy with erica

We have four jobs, too.
I have four jobs.
I have a couple pets.
I go to Pilates once every six months to keep this body jiggling.
Okay?
I hear ya.
I like to look like I'm an ex-wrestler who stopped taking steroids.
Achieved. How about you, Suzeler who stopped taking steroids. Achieved.
How about you, Suze?
Thanks.
Thank you.
Achieved.
Achieved.
That's how we like to do it.
Hey, I just got a steroid shot in my butt today, so I can't play that.
Yeah.
How about that?
Okay, so it's been a while since I've seen you, so I know you no longer watch Bravo.
Oh, right.
Is that because the shows got canceled and you're boycotting them?
Well, we don't like to be that harsh on shows like this where they probably listen.
Although we're already blackballed, I'm sure.
But really, it was just like it got it was sad to watch.
It was like not only did we watch Bravo religiously before People's Couch, we also watched Bravo for our job.
Yeah.
So the job was gone.
And then it was like it was just kind of a bummer. Yeah. It was too sad. Yeah. So the job was gone, and then it was like,
it was just kind of a bummer.
Yeah, it was too sad.
We were just too sad,
because it just wasn't fun anymore to watch,
because it was like watching the job that you got fired from.
No, I get that.
There were a lot of shows I had to give up after my divorce
because it reminded me of my marriage, so.
Right, right.
Different, but similar.
Were they on Bravo?
Do you watch anything else on Bravo?
Not many shows, honestly.
I do watch Beverly Hills Housewives, which I probably won't watch anymore now that Lisa's not on it.
Right.
That's the way to go.
Yeah.
Jersey Housewives.
I met all of them.
We were actually just talking about this earlier.
Season one, when my whole cast hated me, and I'm at the Upfronts event.
I don't know anyone.
I have never seen a show on Bravo.
I don't even know if our show was airing yet.
This was a long time ago.
And this really nice guy with a thick Jersey accent comes up and is like, I can't even do the accent.
I would try, but was like, what are you doing sitting over here by yourself?
You know, like, come on.
What are you doing over here?
Like that.
You're a nice looking young lady.
And you should come over and sit with the rest of us.
Yes.
And his name was Joe Gorga.
Oh, he is nice.
We love them.
Funny thing is, is Sheena had no idea who these people are.
So she's like sending me pictures and asking me, mom, who is this person?
Who is this person?
And I watch the shows.
And I'm sending her back messages.
Oh, that's Joe Gorga.
That's this person. So I'm like trying to google there's like no reception like I have
very little service I'm like I don't know who these people are but I ended up meeting a very
dear friend and amazing makeup artist Priscilla D'Estacio who every time I'm in Watch What Happens
in New York on Watch What Happens Live or any event she does my makeup so it was like a lot
of good did come out of me being a loner that day.
But that was kind of my intro to Bravo.
Then I made friends with some of the girls on Shaws of Sunset.
So now I watch that every season because they're friends of mine.
Also, that's top notch.
Emmy winning, deserving.
Shaws of Sunset is amazing.
We probably missed that the most.
Yeah.
So I went on a few dates
with one of the guys on the newer seasons.
Who?
Yeah, his name's Nima.
He's been on the show.
We're just friends now,
but we did go on a few dates,
and they were good dates.
We went to some dope places,
but we're both on different shows,
and they don't cross-pollinate.
Well, see, if you want to be part of this group, you need to have a thick skin.
Thick skin.
You have to have a thick skin if you want to be part of our group and eat all the time.
Here's the thing, Sheena.
No.
So it wasn't like that.
But it didn't work out.
But we're friends.
Didn't work out.
The guys are hot on that show, I think.
So I don't know that we've seen him.
I don't remember him.
I think the last newest one we've seen is.
The Mike's friend?
No.
Shervin?
Yeah, Shervin.
Yeah, Shervin was here too.
He asked me out on a date and then never followed up with it.
Yeah.
Interesting.
Yeah, was like talking about which one of his like 17 cars he was going to pick me up
in and then it never happened.
But then Nima was was like if you go out
with shirvin the number and i was just like okay guys there's enough she know for all the shots
for all the cars wow wow i don't know yeah yeah um other than jersey housewives um what else do i
i did watch a little bit of Below Deck Med because I met Hannah at
a Bravo event and I really liked her
so I watched her season but then she told me
she wasn't coming back so I stopped watching it
but then she did come back I'm like I'm not going
back and catching up on this but
when I was in Australia I got to hang out with her in Sydney
and that was a lot of fun oh that's cool
but you watch them all right I don't watch
them all but I do watch more than Sheena
I do watch Below Deck, Below Deck Med, a few of the Housewives shows.
You watch OC.
I don't watch that.
I stopped watching that after Gretchen left because I'm a loyal friend.
But I'm not sure if I'll stick with Beverly Hills either now that Lisa's gone.
It's like I'm curious and I want to watch it to see what's going on, but also don't
care because it doesn't affect my life anymore.
Well, we have found that once a certain amount
of time passes
because we felt that too
because we had like a,
you know, withdrawals.
And then...
Can we like to cuss on this?
Yes.
You can say whatever the fuck you want.
The shit is like drugs.
Like it's hard.
Yeah.
It was hard.
We were,
we went through serious withdrawals.
Yeah.
We had to find other shows.
So we had to go
and find like Dance Moms,
you know,
Abby's Ultimate Dance Challenge.
Old ones.
Bravo does it the best, so it's hard.
Wife Swap.
Not that easy.
It's not.
It's not.
And it's been a challenge.
So you won't get in trouble for saying you guys are dipping if Lisa Vanderpump leaves.
I mean, that's evolution, too.
I mean, I don't watch every evolution show.
I don't watch Real Housewives of Orange County.
God, now that's, you know.
I mean, listen.
Vicky's a friend now, so that was a bummer i mean housewives is going on season 10 so i think they're doing just fine without my view yeah we're diehard we get like
one like we like the icons yeah we loved the legends we lived for vicky lived yeah she's so
did she get demoted did she get kicked off like what happened with that because i know i heard things but i don't know what was true i mean from what i understand So did she get demoted? Did she get kicked off? Like, what happened with that? Because I know I heard things, but I don't know what was true.
I mean, from what I understand is that she was demoted to a friend.
But she's still on the show.
She's on the show.
But not holding an orange or whatever they're called.
Yeah, she's not holding an orange.
Yes.
No.
And she pops in, like, every other episode for a little bit.
God.
But she's going to pull a – she's going to do Countess Luann.
Oh, she has to.
She's going to do,
Bran, Bran, Bran, Bran, Bran, Bran.
You know, Luann was only a friend during,
you know, not really,
when she got with the guy in the vineyard.
You don't watch New York?
No, never watch New York.
Countess Luann got demoted to a friend
and absolutely owned the season.
Owned.
Like, hilarious.
Got drunk. Yeah. Yeah. Like, really funny. Just really funny. Owned. Like, hilarious. Got drunk.
Got, like...
Really funny. Really funny.
So she's back. You know, Vicky
can do it. It could happen.
Something like that.
She's gonna have to find another Brooks.
Guess we'll see. Stay tuned.
So, what's on your DVR
or Apple TV or whatever
form of television you watch these days.
It's been hard. I mean, right now we are
doing Dance Moms.
It's so good.
We need a strong figurehead
who's crazy.
Abby Lee
went to jail and is now in a wheelchair.
So visually, it's
all happening for us.
Well, she was diagnosed with cancer, right?
Yes. She's in prison yes yeah yeah in the prison gets let out early cuz I got the cancer then not just the cancer she has spinal surgery puts her in a
wheelchair half paralyzed and she was a dance instructor and now she's in, but she is. The wigs are on fleek. You've never seen anyone own a wheelchair.
This bitch will roll in and just like.
And she like leans back and is like.
She does weird stretching.
Heroette now.
I mean, it's incredible.
It's incredible.
It saved us.
I'm telling you.
Check it out.
We like Instant Hotel on Netflix.
If you guys like to binge on netflix
yeah i i do it's australian oh wait it's reality yeah scripted it's reality but they're they're
airbnb each one owns an airbnb uh-huh and then they all try each other's right and then they
rate them but it's giving you oh it's giving you like australian accents it's giving you slots it's giving you gay guys it's giving you um like the couple that doesn't do anything like we're not
real drinkers really and then they're they're like well what do you guys do and nothing but
then there's ones like we like man candy we like to see deeks and things like that is that that's
a great australian accent i'm working on it so hard. So hardcore. I'm living for it. It's so hard to do.
We're trying to go in February. Because you just, you went, or you've been.
Yeah, I might go next month.
I just made a new Australian
friend while in San Diego
a couple weeks ago. So it's going to be like, Sheena's going down
under. She's going there.
Sheena.
A friend with a deke she has? Does he have a deke?
Or is it a lady? No deke.
A lady friend or a male friend?
It's a male friend. He plays
rugby and has a game out there.
I was like, do you want to come to my game? I was like, I mean,
it's a reason to go to Australia.
So maybe. Yes.
Yeah, but that accent.
This guy, I'm telling you, he looks like Jason Momoa
with an Australian accent.
Amazing. Can we tell you on this
show, Instant Hotel, what they win is a trip to Palm Springs.
Stop.
Oh my God.
Beyond.
Like the city of Airbnb dreams.
Right.
It's so dope.
Sheena just bought a house in Palm Springs.
Well, yeah.
So that's where I just ran into Brandy's husband in Palm Springs because he's friends with
my good friend, Corey.
Good old Corboy.
Shout out to Corboy.
Oh my god, he literally said he goes, tell them Corboy said hi.
They'll know. I love
Corey. He's my fave.
Yeah, he's great. He's testing for general hospital.
Probably not allowed to say that. No, he did yesterday. She just ran lines
with him. We talked about it on my show
last week. It's like Corboy's
going to get a lot more important to us if he gets
into the hospital, not Lyon. So he
came over and ran his screen test
with me because it was two different scenes
with a woman and he'd only been running
it with men. And so we ran
it together. I gave him a couple notes. I'm like, obviously
I'm not an acting coach, but I'm like,
based on the notes you have written on the side,
if you do this line, I think
if it says charming, flirty, like, do it a little more.
Like, make it obvious that you're flirting with her because then otherwise my line doesn't make sense.
Right, like, be less gay.
Yeah.
Right.
Stick your deke out, Corey.
Stick your deke out, Corey.
Corey, where's your deke?
Where's your deke, mate?
Well, we love this one.
This is what happens on our podcast.
He said it went really well
he did it in one take
and um
yeah he should be
finding out soon
so
please get on a soap
yeah
but I'm
okay but let me just say
when he was over
and we were running lines
we like took a break
and put on
I just got Apple TV
which is amazing
but I'm buying
too many movies it's getting expensive but we put on YouTube on the got Apple TV, which is amazing, but I'm buying too many movies. It's getting expensive.
But we
put on YouTube on the TV and we're watching
scenes from General Hospital and I mean, it was
like cringeworthy.
I was like, Corey, just know if you don't
get it, it's because you're too good of an actor.
You have to do that stare at the end.
Yeah, that's so fair. I told him,
at the end of the scene, just stare until they
say cut or scene.
What's this?
Oh, you can't probably say.
Yeah.
We shouldn't say.
It's usually regurgitated sides anyways.
Well, and then I asked.
I was like, oh, is this a new character?
Are you taking over for someone else?
And he's like, yeah, I probably should have asked about that.
I'm like, well, yeah, because, you know, one day it could be John and the next day it's
Corey playing the same character.
They just swap them out.
Don't explain it.
There was no, like no facial transplant or anything.
It was just like, oh, facial transplant.
Yeah, they're like, why does Todd look like that?
Todd's hotter.
High five, everyone.
It's Corboy now.
Mandy, I'm back from the hospital.
I need to speak with you now.
Don't walk away from me.
I thought all the hottest guys were on YNR, personally.
Yeah.
Justin Hartley.
Shemar Moore.
Uh-huh. Yeah. Shemar Moore.
Yeah.
Totally right.
Doesn't do her for you.
My mom did watch Days of Our Lives.
That was her stories.
I did grow up on Days of Our Lives. My favorite was
Bo. I thought he was the most handsomest.
Then after that,
we're reeling in and out
Victor Kiriakis?
oh yeah Victor Kiriakis
but then you know I'm starting
now I'm like why do I like Bo and Hope so much
I was in All My Children girl
because you're gay
because you're a lesbian
but yeah Bo and what was the other
there was a guy with a patch
that was Patch that's his name that was the cheesiest literally's the there's a guy with a patch I never watched days that's his name
that was the cheesiest
literally Marlena
had a desecrator
and came back from the dead
Marlena
came back from the dead
yeah
oh my mother loved it
and her twin
and she has an actual twin
like a real true life twin
oh and really
yes
and my mother would be
very upset about it
on all my children
wasn't there a twin
and like one of them
like threw the other one
in the well
or something
like back in the early 90s?
That was way back in the day.
That was Anne Heche, I think.
Oh my god, I swear to god that was
Anne Heche that was on All My Children
as a twin. Really? I swear.
But what about Santa Barbara? Did you watch that?
No.
What's that? Well, that was a
soap opera. Santa Barbara.
I think it was short-lived.
Short-lived, but I loved it.
Best looking people.
Because Robin Wright, Penn, well, Robin Wright at the time, she was in it.
And then there was that Latino guy.
She probably wasn't even literally born.
I was born in 85.
I'm not that young.
I just look young.
I feel that.
Was it in the 80s?
Was that?
You looked young because you are young.
But you always looked young
look at your mom
it's probably the Botox
I've been doing it
for 10 years
literally just texted
my doctor
and was like
need more
I don't
he said
I don't know
I thought maybe
it was the 90s
I don't know
I don't know
so how's your house
in Palm Springs
do you love it
it is amazing
I love it
it's on a golf course
it's got a pool jacuzzi huge bedroom is amazing. I love it. It's on a golf course. It's got a pool, jacuzzi,
huge bedroom, high ceilings.
Is it by Kyle's?
Kyle's on
Beverly Hills and she had
a house in Palm Springs.
Oh, Kyle Richards? I thought it was on a golf
course. There's a lot of golf courses.
Oh yeah, that's right.
It's like less than 10 minutes
from downtown.
Wow.
There's this cute little like shopping center across the street that has like pretty much everything you need.
I mean, there's a bar, there's food, there's a weed dispensary.
Is it by the right?
What's the shopping center?
I guess we shouldn't say because then you're going to get the stalkers.
Yeah.
Well, we'll talk after.
Okay.
Do you find that you're going there now all the time?
I try and go weekly if I can.
It just depends on my schedule.
Yeah.
I mean, just for a night. Like Tuesday, she just
called, Mom, let's just take a quick drive out there
and stay the night. That is so nice. So our favorite
Mexican restaurant, listen to some live music,
eat some tacos. Yeah. I know.
It's amazing. Love it.
Love it.
It's great. Have you been to Las Casuelas?
Is that the one? Yeah.
And we've been to The Nest. Yeah, so
that's where I was with your husband.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
Palm Springs is like Vegas to us.
We have like trash box whores.
The level we go in, it's like, and everyone's like, okay, it's not, you're not in Vegas,
but we do.
No, but we do feel like it.
I'm like, we're in Palm Springs.
Yeah.
When it's hot at night, you can just's like not like here no the last time we were there we were
staying stayed at this place and it was just like i was like no i don't like to i don't i love to be
in a pool but i don't like anyone to be around because i don't want anyone to look at me and
then but at night sounds like my mom i was gonna say it's just like me so i get it you know what
i mean yeah like i want my. Don't look at me.
And but at night, it's like it's hot and you can still go in the pool and it's dark and no one's around.
It's perfection.
We've been friends for 10 years and I've never seen her.
We had an Airbnb with a pool and she was out there like, what are you doing?
You're not swimming.
This is heaven.
I'm doing laps.
I'm just living.
I loved it.
No, but they have the most amazing farmer's market or street fair.
What do we want to call it?
Oh, yeah.
It's like a street fair.
Yeah, farmer's market.
Yeah, every Thursday night year round.
Downtown Palm Springs.
Yeah, never been to that.
Downtown Palm Springs.
It's so fun.
It is.
It's amazing.
Every Thursday.
It's like food and it's so good.
And they have like really dope art pieces and like a lot of cool shit.
Yeah, Sheena bought a beautiful piece of art
for her Marina Del Rey place
and then you ate
a cactus tamale
for the first time
oh my god I ate cactus
I've had cactus twice now
yeah
actually it's kind of
like a pasilla
or like a green
like a chili pepper
and it was so good
yeah
I was like
we gotta go to that
yeah
every Thursday
I don't know about that
and he's like
I'm gonna give it to you for free.
Will you just try it?
And I'm like, I'm not going to say no to a free tamale.
I'll at least eat the masa and pick out the inside.
And it was good?
It was really good.
Yeah.
Went back the next week, bought a dozen and stuck them in a freezer.
And then you know what?
Good old tamales.
Someone ate them because I think there's only like two left.
What?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Do you have a bunch of people out to your house?
I do. I do entertain
there often. Yeah, but not without
you. No. No. I don't
Airbnb my house. No.
This is too much work. Yeah, and it's like
now that I've like fully like moved in
like furniture and clothes and like
sunglass racks and like all of this
like dope stuff, I just
don't want strangers in my space. Yeah, you don't of this like dope stuff. I just don't want strangers
in my space.
Yeah, you don't want them touching your stuff.
Yeah, I don't blame you.
It's not my house and I feel the same way for her.
Yeah.
Someone's going to be all laying on your blankets and stuff.
No, it's beautiful though.
But do you have someone watching it?
Because sometimes I think about going there and just squatting.
Oh, okay.
Because we're driving I'm like
are these all empty? Because we can just go in there.
Yeah but she's also in a private gated community
and it's a real tight
knit community. Everybody watches out for
everybody and she has a full security system too.
So gated community.
We're driving around the regular streets.
And my neighbors live there full time so
there's always people there looking out like
if I ever saw something suspicious on the camera
I could call my neighbor and be like, yo, can you go
check? This is the code.
But they're always looking out regardless.
The Airbnb laws are, I
feel, about to change there particularly.
I think it's going to change where it's
like... Well, plus I'm under
a strict HOA so it's
like I'm limited with what I can do
and I knew that when I bought the house but when I walked in I just knew it was the house and I'm limited with what I can do. And I knew that when I bought the house.
But when I walked in, I just knew it was the house.
And I'm like, if I can't rent it out, I can't rent it out.
I still know I want to buy a house.
I love the golf course, the openness of the house.
It's just like, it's amazing.
You have to come out and see it.
Yeah.
Oh, we would love to.
We go out there all the time.
My parents might are considering moving there.
So we'll see.
But we always, we go out there all the time. Love it.
I'm Jewish.
And that's a big thing there.
I thought that was Miami. Palm Springs loves Jews.
Yeah, totally. They do.
Oh, that's right. We go to Sherman's
Deli. That's like, oh.
We hit the Jewish spot. It's like a Miami
in the desert. West Coast.
Yeah. You know what I mean?
I had never been to the Nest before, and Corey was like, oh, I'm here with a few friends. West Coast. Yeah. You know what I mean? So I had never been to the nest before
and Corey was like,
oh, I'm here with like
a few friends.
Like you girls should come.
So we went and I'm like,
wait, this place is so dope.
It's like Craig's
with a dive bar
and then like this like
full live band bar attached.
But it's not in Palm Springs, right?
It's in Indian Wells.
Okay.
So just a little bit outside.
It's like 20 minutes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We, I mean,
we took an Uber and it was like like there was a line of cars.
It was like an older set just getting on down, honey.
It was like singles hook up, the Tinder crowd.
Yeah.
And it was like hilarious. Well, that was if you look it up.
It says it's like the place for people over 50 who are single to hook up.
So we just got a table and was just like, ooh. up it says it's like the place for like people over 50 who are single to like hook up so we were
just like got a table and we're just like oh kesha was playing and we were like this is amazing
sheena said it was great we yeah we've almost been killed in an uber in palm springs yeah
literally i mean bad i had to like yell at the guy i was like pull the fuck over now like seriously
we jumped out all three no he was just stupid i'm like how did this
guy get a license like at first i'm and i mean i'm i'm high a lot of the time but i had like hit
my pen a few times before dinner and i'm like dude today we're just oblivious like on my phone
looking at a cute video of my friend and his kid and i'm like oh my god mom look at just like she
i'm like just look at this video really quick the kid's really watching the road because this guy's
gonna kill us for reeking out because he had to do like a 10-point turn instead of just a U-turn.
And I'm like, whatever.
Maybe he just couldn't tell if he was going to hit the planner or not.
Whatever.
But then he like pulls like halfway into the intersection out of red light.
And I was like, okay, he just needs to back up a little.
It's fine.
But the third time when he's going like 45 into a semi truck and not slowing
down i screamed and i was like pull over now we got out and i was just like and so then i call
a lift because i'm like fuck uber i'm gonna call lift so i call a lift and i'm like okay dope bmw
i was like oh shoot he's close like one minute away and she's like, Sheena, we just got out of a BMW. I'm like, it's the same
guy. He's literally making a U-turn to
take us back. He also works for Lyft.
What is with this guy?
Oh my god, it was bad. We're gonna die.
It's Final Destination.
You can't escape. It was bad.
Abort mission. Cancel, cancel.
Oh my god. I was like, should we just
walk? That seems to be the safer option
right now. But then it's like 115 degrees outside.
It was so bad.
We finally got another lift.
I was like, let's just wait five minutes for him to drive away further.
Yeah.
Because clearly the guy works for both.
Yeah.
Most often I drive.
Next I'm going to call a cab and it's going to be this guy.
It'll be him.
Yeah.
It'll be like, beep, beep.
Hello.
He's another different car now.
It's just me
Sheena's like
It's a BMW
And they're like
We just were in a BMW
You were on your phone
Looking at the video
It's not a BMW
She was clueless
I'm not even kidding
She was clueless
Okay but also
She has a pen
It's a BMW guys
He says he's good at 10 point turns
Let's do this dude
It's now a Honda
It's a Honda course
You don't know
Come on
Ladies come in
I don't care
Come on
I haven't even seen
Any dispensaries
In Palm Springs
Have we not been there
In that long
I love across the street
From Baltimore
What's his name
Angel who works there
Shout out
That's great
Now Erica
Are you getting down
On the marijuana?
No.
I wish she was that cool.
She used to be that cool
in the 80s.
Then she had a baby
and made a promise
to never do drugs again.
I was like,
well, that was dumb.
It was 1985.
But you drink.
I do drink.
Yeah.
Very, very little and rarely.
Not very often anymore
in Palm Springs
because I tend to drive now.
You know,
I don't want to die.
No, but even when
she doesn't drive,
she's like, oh, I might want to have a drink.
And then she'll have a beer. And I'm like, why did we Uber?
Why? You can still
do it. Because I'm going to pick you up.
That's why. It's me.
I heard you had
beer.
No, you can drive on one beer. Oh, I'll drive on
a couple beers. No, that's fine.
That's funny. My sister just got an Uber
recently. And she said the guy burped or something.
And then he was like, oh, my God, sorry.
It must have been the sixth pack of beers I had before this.
And she was like, wait, what?
Like, one, two beers, but six.
But it was a joke.
I'm sure he was joking.
He was joking.
But when she said that, I was like, he admitted that?
Yeah.
But no, I don't smoke.
I did back in the day and I just
choose not to it's 420
as we're talking about marijuana
listen pot is
it's intense I don't care
we do every drug under the sun
and the thing is that is
the most often overdosed pot
you just accidentally do too much and now you're like
why didn't my dad ever love me
so we're like we're not gonna do we can't we can't do it you're smoking
but you should try this we're too i can't we won't do it and i can't we got we had an experience
okay we love good weed stories on this all right well right, well, here's one for you. Well, we got violently too high at Melissa Etheridge's house.
She wasn't there.
Her wife was there.
Okay.
But Melissa Etheridge had cancer, so she had, like, cancer weed, which is different than regular weed.
Oh, like super medical, medicinal, whatever.
And it was, like, a bong, which nobody even does that.
You know what I mean?
A bong with, like, a pharmaceutical written down the side.
Wow.
And Julie's like, and it was like her wife and Julie's like, oh, I'm not doing that.
And I will do anything.
Like, thank God quaaludes aren't around.
I'm just like, your pressure.
I'm like, okay.
I'm like, don't be a dork in front of these people.
And like, I'm like, she's like, we're not going to.
I've had a problem.
Don't make me do it.
Yeah.
No, but I'm not doing it.
And I'm like, well, do it.
So we like share a bong
hit and it was like i coughed and then she she was messing with me she was insane who oh the
tammy right and she was like she was shouldn't cough you shouldn't cough our nanny coughed and
then she thought she went crazy and had to put a blanket over her head right i got so paranoid
and julie thought melissa etheridge was in a panic room.
Oh, my God.
She wasn't in there.
Now, let me set the scene.
We're in this room with all paraphernalia in it, with bongs.
We're in the smoking room.
The smoking room opens up into the yard.
It's dark now, right?
The sun went down, but they didn't turn any lights on.
She didn't turn any lights on.
Not one light came on. So then brandy takes the thing i took the thing i'm you instantaneously
fell over now you have a blanket over your head like it they have twin little babies doesn't move
now again she's done every everything so i like, so then I go to the bathroom.
The bathroom was weird.
It was two toilets next to each other.
But it was also like a broom closet.
I didn't understand what was going on.
Like his and her toilet.
I don't know what I peed in.
Her and her toilet.
Right.
And maybe one was a bidet.
I think I peed in the bidet.
And then I left.
I walked back.
And then I was like, I don't, I feel weird.
She was like, oh, do you want, do you need to go outside?
I was like, I don't know.
I don't know.
She goes, let's put on t-shirts and go in the pool.
Right.
I was like, going in the pool?
What is this, turning into a sex thing?
Right.
And then she was like, do you guys, it was, right.
And for, right.
Cause then she was like, do you, maybe we should all three get in bed.
And I was like, nope, no.
And then do you want to go take a walk?
No.
Do you want to go on the trampoline no
and then i couldn't deal she's like you could have chocolate you get and this a lot of time
is going by and i couldn't you weren't getting up i couldn't get stand up i was so terrified
because we had never been there before we didn't know her she lived out in like hidden hills
oh yeah and so we're dying harman was next door i'm like what's
she gonna do come arrest us and put us on law and order and like i drove i had a new car i had an
suv that was a stick shift yes and i was like there is no way they had construction going on
they had like a fountain being built like you had to go through a construction site i was like i'm
not taking the stick shift through this right we're spending the night yeah but then we were
but then because she was i in my mind she was being sexual or whatever but she
wasn't paranoid but she but it's just what i'm making up in my head i'm like we got to get out
of here she had one shoe on i eat chocolate and then i'm like brandy we got to go she's like you
don't have to go you could spend the night and then we make it to the car doesn't turn a light on again and then
we sit in the car and cry for an hour wow i wouldn't let julie leave her house we sat melissa
etheridge's driveway for an hour yep and in the car without any lights on and this is why i don't
get high and this is why and this is why and this is why we can't we we don't anymore we've tried
a little bit here and there but it was a fun time the 80s, it was a fun time, you know?
I wasn't with children.
I did a lot of stuff.
The 80s was the best time to get high.
A lot of stuff.
I was like, yeah, it's like, okay, I'm down.
Yeah.
But, yeah.
There was no better time.
Yeah.
I liked being in control.
Well, I wish that my mom would just follow doctor's orders and our doctor, our family
physician, has told her, Erica, smoke a bowl.
Just to help with my blood pressure, maybe.
Do you live with chronic pain or anything?
I do, actually.
Oh, then you should.
Or CBD.
I've tried to do CBD.
She's afraid to do anything other than Tylenol or Advil.
Which is screwing up the liver.
Yeah, and the stomach.
Yeah, it is.
I know.
But what about just like vicodin or
any of that i've never taken a vicodin in my life you shouldn't the opioid epidemic is no i know it
is and and but no for reals the reason i wouldn't is because i'm afraid it would work so good i would
be that person and i would be addicted yeah i don't think i have an addictive personality but
because i do have chronic pain in my neck and my back it would work and then yeah
oh no people are like i know i feel pain no one around me is annoying this is heaven yeah like
the minute they take one bite and they're like wow this is you know yeah and the same if i got
high i might like it again and i might want to be of course you would like it right don't you get
the munchies or no no thankfully i don't you don't. Oh, you're lucky. Yeah. And like, whether it's Sativa, Indica, or a hybrid, it's the same.
It's not like one wakes me up, one relaxes me.
I try and tell myself that, but I'm like, I don't know what cartridge is in my pen right
now.
It's not going to make a difference.
They're all, I feel like they're all hybrids now anyways, you know?
Pretty much.
And then it's like, they're all like CBD and THC and it's like, oh, one's 7 to 1, one's
10 to 1.
I'm like, I can't tell the freaking difference.
And those are small. That actually is like, oh, one's 7 to 1, one's 10 to 1. I'm like, I can't tell the freaking difference. And those are small.
That actually is a really small, you know.
We just manage to drink too much to really do.
We try to be strategic.
That's true.
And, you know, and I have pain, too.
So I have been prescribed certain things.
Yeah.
And I do take them.
But we mostly sell them to other people.
But then you sell them to other people.
As you should. But you keep sell them to other people. But then you sell them to other people. As you should.
But you keep a few.
You keep a few.
Because that opioid epidemic is real.
Because I do have an addictive personality.
And I will get addicted to everything.
And I am addicted to everything.
And like I said, I don't think I do.
But I'm afraid that I would.
I feel you.
And you should be.
Especially if you have the pain and it takes the pain away.
Absolutely.
Once you live with pain and that one second when you don't have it, you're like, oh.
And that's rare.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I don't have an addictive personality at all unless it's like fuck boys and assholes
and somehow I just keep wanting more.
You don't.
We've been with you and you don't even really, you barely drink.
No, I don't drink a lot.
But I just, I always, I'm a control freak and I always like being in control.
But like when I froze my eggs twice this year when the doctor told me like, okay, alcohol,
weed, all of this stops today.
I was like, okay, I guess that stops today.
I mean, it sucks, but I was 50 days sober, like didn't have any weed, like nothing.
No.
Stone cold sober.
Now the Sheena eggs are sitting in a frozen.
16. 16. And she's considering doing a third round i know because we only have 16 and although that's a good amount it's not a
great amount how many do you need like ideal is 25 oh because once they get fertilized and then
it goes through the genetic testing and then they're you know implanted there's
i mean nothing's a guarantee anyway but it'll just give her a little better yeah you never know like
i mean women have several miscarriages like i don't know if if i had one i don't know if i
would even want to get pregnant again but it's like you don't know until you're in that position
what you're going to feel like but i know where i'm at in my life right now don't want kids. Not right now at least. I know if I do
find Mr. Right
and that is going to be
a long term thing and he wants kids
I'm probably going to want them because when I was married to
Shay I wanted kids. Then we got
divorced and I'm like oh god I don't want kids.
But then I started dating Rob and I was like oh I do want kids.
And it's like I've been so back and forth
that where I'm at right now is back to like
I don't. And everyone's like then why are you putting yourself through this? I'm like, I've been so back and forth that where I'm at right now is back to like, I don't.
And everyone's like, then why are you putting yourself through this?
I'm like, because I know how wishwashy I am.
We watch Vanderpump Rules.
I change my mind every day.
Tomorrow I might want to be a mom.
And then it's like, well, it's too late and you're infertile.
And then when your triplets come out, you'll be like, wow, this was a mistake.
And we'll come back on the podcast and be like, how are those triplets?
Three girls.
See, and twins run in our family so that's
scary but my amh levels are so low that it would be close to impossible it would be a miracle if
i got pregnant on my own and i'm on the pill so i'm not like worried about that happening but also
i just know that if i were trying and in that place in my life that it would be difficult and
it would be really disappointing so i think it's difficult for everyone now.
Yeah.
It's like way, way harder.
So are you the only one on the show that's frozen your eggs?
Uh-huh.
I'm surprised.
Yeah, Kristen is the only other one who's considered it,
but it's a full lifestyle change that I don't think she's ready to commit to.
And everyone else is in relationships.
Or doesn't, like Tom and Ariana.
I mean, Tom wants kids, but Ariana doesn't.
But everyone else, they're on that path.
Jackson,
Brittany,
Tom and Katie,
Stassi and Bo,
Randall and Lala.
They're all couples who are married or getting married and planning families.
And I'm just not there.
It's like,
I'm on the wrong show to be single.
I need to be on like a love Island show.
No,
you're on the right show to be single because they're going to, I let's just say abstractly speaking let's say you're on let's just say you're on
a show with all couples all couples what are they doing they don't have kids they're gonna
yeah but who's gonna be the special one who's gonna stand out the single one or the one who
just gets left in the dust no that's not how it is we Yeah. No, no. Yeah. Well, you already, you were the only one married for a long time, right?
I got divorced the year Tom and Katie got married.
So you were, but you spent all that time, like, you know what I mean?
So I think you're, I think you're, you're good.
There's no leaving in the dust.
There's, you know, now they, they have to have kids or break up.
Yeah, and you know what?
They're all, They're all happy.
None of them settled.
I felt like, I mean, no offense to Shay.
It wasn't right.
I did feel like I settled.
Like, I got comfortable.
I was happy.
I was like, well, he's my best friend, so this is what we should do.
We've been together for three years.
We may as well get engaged.
Like, we're almost 30.
And I settled.
And I refused to ever do that again because look at what I had to go through and then
two assholes after so I'm like does he have a new girlfriend or is he married he did but uh hasn't
for like the last year we had gotten in touch over the past like year a little over a year and saw
him twice recently was supposed to see him again he He was coming over for a barbecue. Some of our mutual friends were going to be there.
And then he chickened out.
He doesn't want to see me.
Let's be real.
He didn't come.
And he lied and made up an excuse and said he had to go to work.
Which he's never done.
Yeah, I mean, that was his family.
Of all the excuses, I mean, God love him.
But come on, he didn't work in 10 years.
Why is he going to have to go to work the day he's coming to my house for a barbecue?
Let's be real.
And I even said, I was like, look, if you're just like nervous to see the fam and you're
not there yet, like that's fine.
You can tell me.
Like we can just go grab a coffee.
But like don't lie and tell me you have to work.
Like don't start out this friendship we're trying to build on lies.
And I haven't heard from him since.
So obviously he lied.
I even cut up cilantro for him because he and I are the only ones who like cilantro.
I made tacos. I did that for cilantro for him because he and I are the only ones who like cilantro. I made tacos.
I did that for him.
Does he think you hate him?
I don't think he thinks I hate him because I don't.
I mean, I love the kid.
He has a great family.
I'm the one who gave him a reality check, and I'm the one who kind of opened Sheena's eyes.
She saw a lot of signs that I was too blind to see.
Sheena was, yeah, not seeing these things.
So I think he probably feels that I'm the cause of their divorce.
Which, I mean, he's the cause of their divorce.
I mean, like, I think he might be a bit of a liar.
You know what I mean?
And that's the thing.
We like him a lot.
And a lot of that had to do with his addiction.
And I get that.
You know, I understand that.
But I just needed Sheena to open her eyes and see these things this is my daughter
I'm gonna always you know
be there to help and protect her so I was
just letting her see what she wasn't seeing
but like after
the last couple guys I've dated
or hung out with and not dated whatever
we want to call it I just
absolutely refuse to settle and like
there's someone I'm talking to
I mean there's a few.
You've got to keep the bench full.
Just keep it going.
It's like a frying pan.
Until I'm ready to not want number one around,
that wouldn't be fair to anyone else to get in a relationship
because I'm like, I'm having too much fun with this guy right now.
I don't want to hang out with anyone else.
I also don't want to make him my boyfriend.
But we're having so much fun together.
Why ruin something that's going great?
Like, you put a title on it, then there's extra pressure.
Then you have to check in every day.
Then I'm at a music festival.
I don't have service.
Then I'm freaking out.
Is he still at work?
Is he, you know, I'm just like.
Yeah.
Because everyone's like, why don't you guys just date?
You're so good together.
I'm like, why ruin?
It's good because it's the way it is.
Yeah.
And, like.
And then you can't go to Australia with the deets.
Exactly.
See? You gotta just. God, I hope they don't go to Australia with the deets Exactly See
God I hope they don't listen to this
They'll see this
I hope you're still coming down under
Shayna
We don't ever know how to do the A's
He calls me babe
Are we coming down under babe
So he sent me a video
On Instagram today.
He's with a friend of his who I guess is a fan of mine or knows who I am.
Maybe not a fan.
I don't know.
But he sends me a video on Instagram, and they're listening to my song in the car.
And I was like, please don't.
I told you.
Oh, that's cute.
Don't Google me.
Don't stalk me.
I know you already scrolled way far back on my Instagram.
Wasn't it his sister?
Because he had no idea who you were.
Yeah, he didn't know who I was.
And then she, I guess guess follows me and saw him
on my story and was like what are you doing with Sheena
and he's like the girl in San Diego
like what
yeah I had no idea so that made me like
him even more too because yeah
and like at first we kind of we met at an
after party and like we weren't
hitting it off like I was just in kind of a bitchy
mood it was like 4am and like someone
was annoying me and then it was like yeah because you weren't hitting it off. Like, I was just in kind of a bitchy mood. It was, like, 4 a.m. And, like, someone was annoying me.
And then it was, like.
Yeah, because you weren't on any drugs.
Maybe I wasn't on enough.
Yeah, exactly.
How about that?
I was coming down at 4 a.m.
Yeah.
But then the next day, my friend Brooke, who I was with, she was, like, oh, she's, like,
check your, like, 99 plus DMs because I never check the random ones.
She's, like, one of the guys from last night, like, group chatted us.
He sent us, like, a cute video that they did, like, as a promo for the club or whatever.
And then I saw this other DM right under it.
And I was like, huh, I wonder who that is.
And I opened it and it was him.
And what was the thing that you saw?
Like, you look good last night or what?
So, no, he was smart.
And, I mean, he only had to stalk one picture because it was me at a football game.
smart and I mean he only had to stalk one picture because it was me at a football game but he slid in the DMs by saying next time I'm in LA would love to take you to a Rams game I'm a
Chargers fan however I have a friend who plays on the Rams I support my LA teams I love football
I'm like as long as the Chargers are away I will absolutely go to a Rams game so I was like
okay good move not just like great meeting you last night. Or like, you looked good. I was like, okay, I'll give you a shot.
Yeah.
It's got to go.
We don't have football down under.
It's called football.
We have football.
It's a different sport, Shaina.
He's a rugby player.
Yeah, we play rugby down under, Shaina.
It's babe.
Babe.
Babe, we have a different sports down under, babe.
I'm going to cook you some barbecue, babe.
And he's New Zealand.
He's the Australian or New Zealand?
Because we don't care.
So he was actually born in Auckland but grew up in Sydney.
Okay.
Yeah.
And those are the two places I've been to over there too, oddly.
I was like, that's so funny.
And have you been more than once?
No.
I just went for the first time in March.
And I wanted to go again towards the end of the year because it's their summer.
So I was like,
well,
I was planning on being
in Bali in October
and that's getting pushed
and he's like,
we could go to Bali after
and I was like,
hmm.
Is our Vanderpump
vacation's going to Bali now?
I will slap Julie
across the face
with my face.
Are you guys going
to freaking Bali?
I mean,
not like for the show,
but just for like vacation. Oh, like you. Oh, we don't go out of the country. If we go out of the country, we're going to freaking Bali? I mean, not like for the show, but just for like vacation.
Oh, like you.
Oh, we don't go out of the country.
If we go out of the country, we're going to Mexico.
Yeah, because someone will steal sunglasses from a thing.
That's why we love Jax.
Yeah.
That's right.
We miss him too.
We miss Jax like we miss Jaws.
I know.
Speaking of sunglasses, actually, have you ladies heard of Reve Reveau?
No.
Okay, so I'm going to tell you about it.
Usually I wear my sunglasses inside. I didn't for your mom because I didn't want her to be like, oh, what has
happened to this bitch?
You're funny.
Anyway,
so as I was saying,
these are sunglasses that are so affordable
you actually don't need to steal them.
Brandy.
Yeah.
So it was started by Jamie Foxx, Ashley Benson, and Haley Steinfeld.
All super dope people, so you know the glasses are dope.
Billie Eilish wears them.
That's the reason I started wearing them.
But they're great because they're only $29.95, and they look like designer sunglasses.
So they're affordable for everyone.
Each pair has polarized lenses, which you don't
have to pay extra for. They just all come polarized.
And 100% UVA,
UVB protection, and lenses
with blue light blocking technology.
And they're scratch resistant.
I need that. Yeah. I do.
And you guys can use my code,
Sheena15, and get 15% off your first
purchase. And then that
will give us a lot of money off
because literally they're already so affordable.
Exactly.
So yeah, coaching at 15.
And also, I don't know if you ladies have seen,
but I have a fitness collab that's ending.
The campaign's actually ending soon.
So I don't know if you ladies saw,
but I have a collab I just did

probably gonna wear my leggings from my line like on the bar when I'm
dancing at Cirque's that's what I rehearsed in it was so comfortable I did the splits I'm like I
think I'm just gonna wear those tonight they looked cute actually you know you sent me the video yeah
cute top like high-waisted leggings yeah yeah do it big boots so dressing up at Cirque's gotta be
tragic for you now at this point what am I gonna do wear a full gown you're practically a part
owner there's three hot shirtless men behind me doing whatever i want so it's kind of great it's like my night
with the serpandales yeah i love it so we'll see how long that continues for but as of right now
i'm having a blast i love doing it but enough about me tell me about your podcast dumb gay politics yes um we started the podcast um before we knew
people's couch was canceled and we were um just trying to do something in the like interim we've
done a ton of podcasts over the years we used to be on one called the gayest of all time um
and julie we we weren't going to talk about bravo shows or TV because that's just like done a ton.
And also it was like Julie was really into politics at that time. And I wasn't.
I like like don't like it's like I don't even know like the vice president.
It's like I don't care.
Like literally.
OK, you sound like me.
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I do know who the vice president is, but I was at that point.
I'd be like, Carl wrote.
I don't know.
Yeah.
So but she was really into it.
And so we initially it was just supposed to be I didn't have to do any work.
I don't have to do any work, you know.
Yeah.
But once you start talking about politics, like you have to.
There's no way of getting around learning, knowing, acknowledging, getting into it.
You get sucked into it.
Like even I thought I knew something about it.
I knew nothing.
I knew nothing.
I knew the things I was passionate about and the things that I cared about.
And I was like a one.
Gay stuff.
Yeah.
Gay stuff.
Late stuff.
And I was like super, super, super just, I guess, you know, opinionated and one track
minded.
And then we started to like get into this.
And it's just like. we talk about it like we're
talking about reality TV.
Yeah.
So it's we're basically like as if we're talking about Vanderpump, but we're talking about
true.
Like we're like, he's a tool and gross.
Right.
And, you know, in the closet or whatever it is.
But it's like, you know, we don't even know that like three branches of government like
we didn't remember that.
We want to give people who feel like they don't have a voice in the conversation.
We want people who feel like they hate politics.
They're not interested.
They hate the news.
Where they can catch up with what's going on in the week in a basic, simple, very digestible.
Oh, thank you, Suze.
Yeah.
Funny.
Yeah, you're putting it in layman's terms where people can relate to it.
And it's important
right now for people to feel particularly right now people feel like i don't know i don't know
about that i'm not sure i don't want to i'm it doesn't matter like your opinion matters your
voice matters your vote matters you matter yes we all matter and we all have an opinion and a voice
on things and you don't need to be a scholar to you know to weigh in on it agreed we're we all have an opinion and a voice on things. And you don't need to be a scholar to weigh in on it.
Agreed.
We all pay taxes.
So we all have a right to talk about it.
Exactly.
You know what I mean?
And just because you like just how someone looks
and what their vibe is.
And whoever you're going to vote for,
like, I just like that person's vibe.
That's your right to be like, I'm using my instincts.
Yeah.
And when we do like to talk about it, people look.
And politics is like the last bastion
of just certainly like, you know,
we talk a lot of shit.
You know what I mean? We like talking shit.
It's fun for us, whatever. But with politics,
it's been fun because we are actually getting to talk
shit on people's policy,
people's jobs, what they're doing for us.
You know what I mean? And people we don't
know. It got a lot
less fun that's right talking about vanderpump after we met everyone i was like well this is
yeah these are real people yeah this isn't fun anymore people you know yeah but this is we don't
know yeah we don't know any of them right and they're we're commenting on their jobs and we
have on like anthony scaramucci yeah you, Michael Avenatti. Like we just try and get
like, you know, the grossies. We get them on.
And we try to.
Interesting, real like people. And we're going to try and get
on all the candidates and you know what I mean?
But we won't. Nope. Yeah.
So it's just for people who like
reality TV so that they can
get the news. Yeah. Nice.
I love that. That's actually what I need.
You do. I watch my spectrum news, but that's pretty much, like, local.
Local.
Once it starts to get, like, global, then you're hearing about murders and wars and all that.
I'm like, eh, change the channel.
I can't even hear, like, Persian Gulf.
I'm like, ugh, gross.
What is that about?
But if you listen to the podcast, it'll be, you'll find that it's just, like, easier.
We don't just say, like, Nancy Pelosi.
We explain who everyone is
we don't assume anyone knows right oh see i like that yeah yeah because that's who they told me i
looked like a young was it nancy pelosi on watch what happens live i feel like maybe it was nicky
haley i know i i mean well nancy pelosi's really pretty yeah no i'm pretty sure because it was like
a political andy cohen no it was um i think someone like pretty sure because it was like a political... Who said that? Andy Cohen? No, it was, I think
someone called it, we were playing like a game
and of course it was like a political game.
I think I was on with Wolf Blitzer or...
You were? Yes. Oh yeah.
No, I was on... That's crazy. She's also
been on with S.E.C.
Yeah. So it was one of
them who I was on with and I'm like
can we please not play a politics game?
So if you're going to do something like
that with me then do a pop culture game
with them ask them to name the Kardashians
from oldest to youngest and name their kids in order
exactly you know things that like
they always do but they
always put me on blast but I feel
like it might have been Nancy
I think Andy Cohen was like oh you're kind of like a young
I was like well Nancy Pelosi is pretty we love
her and she's bad young... I was like, thanks. Well, Nancy Pelosi's pretty. We love her. And she's bad.
Yeah.
Bad ass.
Agreed.
I was watching...
Well, next time, watch what happens when she throws shade at you and puts Wolf Blitzer
with you.
You go ahead.
Yeah.
Put him on the podcast.
He was so nice, though.
Like, during the commercial breaks, he's like, don't worry, sweetie.
He's like, you're doing great.
Like, he's like, I didn't even know one of those answers.
I think he was, like, saying that to be nice.
Yeah.
He was so nice. And I just, like, I didn't feel dumb one of those answers. I think he was saying that to be nice. He was so nice.
I didn't feel dumb.
Essie Cobb was a fan.
That was fun to do. She's young
and cool and hip.
I had fun with it.
No one should ever feel dumb if they don't know that crap.
That's right.
I'm sorry. That's not in my realm of interest.
Yes, I live in this world
and I should care about it,
and I do,
but I care about things more so
that affect my life
and the people around me directly.
And all of the things going on in the world,
it's like, I wish I could solve all the problems,
but I can't.
But you know who is?
Kim Kardashian.
So problem to her.
Let her go to paralegal school
and deal with it.
That's right.
That's right.
You know, if I had 200 million followers i would do the same
so i think the shame around that stuff needs to stop we all just need to be as you know watch
our things that help us relax and then i didn't even know i'll say where's north korea i lived in
tokyo for three months i didn't even know where north korea is it's right there i'm like i'm not
gonna feel ashamed i don't know where dumb north k's right. No one should feel ashamed for not knowing something
they don't know. The only reason you don't know
it is because you don't know it. Yet.
Yet. There's always a moment for you to now know it.
You don't know it yet. And that's the same thing
with people who, anyone who wants to ask a question,
I always said this too about like gay stuff. They're like,
you know, isn't it annoying when people say like,
let a teen girl see any other.
People don't know. So it's not a stupid
question because any question
is a good question because they're just trying to educate yourself exactly so why would you deny
anyone or stop a conversation of somebody who just wants to know something no question is dumb
there's no and i mean granted there's hate and there's you know there's ignorance sure and
there's whatever gross intentions but i don't think any question is dumb.
We don't.
I love that.
Because I probably have a lot of what would seem like dumb questions.
But especially around election time, I'm just like, look, mom, obviously I'm going to vote.
We pretty much believe in the majority of the same things other than our love of weed, which you just can't agree with me on.
But that's already passed here. For the most part, we do
share a lot of similar opinions.
So I'm like, can you just kind of break
down what each person stands for for me?
Make me some bullet points and let me study that
instead of just watching a four-hour
debate. I'm like, I'm tuning out.
I'm thinking about what I'm going to wear on the bar at
Sir the next week. I'm not paying attention.
We're looking at someone's weird fake teeth.
We're like, come on. I'm not paying attention. We're looking at someone's like weird fake teeth. Yeah.
I might put in like a Snapchat filter on them.
Yeah.
We'll do that.
We'll be like,
I can't believe it's Paula.
Is that a wig?
Is that a toupee?
Wow, that's weird.
Yeah.
But yeah,
that's what we do.
That's pretty much what we do.
Just listen to it.
See, I mean,
your mom's helping you.
As long as you have someone
that you trust.
Yeah.
You want it broken down.
You want the bullet points.
And that's what we try and do.
No, I'm definitely going to listen. Love that. You know. Yeah. Yeah. it broken down. You want the bullet points. Yeah. That's what we try and do. No, I'm definitely gonna
listen. Love that. You know. Yeah.
Yeah. I'm glad your mom's gonna listen. She's always been
more supportive of us than you. No, I love you.
Oh, whatever.
We need to hang out more.
Come to the west side.
I know, we do. The west side.
Let's take Corey's boat out. Let's do it.
Before it gets too cold, let's take the boat out.
We definitely want to hang with you. I act like it's our boat.
Yeah.
I love Corey.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
Have I told you how much I love Corey?
I know.
15 years.
She loves Corey.
I get it.
Corey boy.
We'll probably get married one day.
I hope so.
Until then.
Good.
Especially if he's on GH.
You know what I mean?
I wish all my children were still around.
That would have been a dream job.
But anyway.
Well, anything else you ladies want to mention before we wrap this up?
We love you.
You're our favorite.
You were our favorite on the show.
And to any of the, I'm sure people hate listen to this.
And we want them to know that we love you.

I'm like that's so mean
we left those there

And then finally one night, Brittany was like, can we have these?
It could be more perfect.
