From Wondery and Audible comes Class of 88, a new podcast hosted by Will Smith.

Hey everyone, welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just absolutely love to watch.
And then talk about, right here on this podcast.
I'm Ben Nadelker.
Welcome to a podcast talking about the podcast.
It talks about a podcast about Bravo, guys. It's very recursive.
It's like Inception of Bravo. I'm Ben
Mandelker from bsideblog.com
and also the Banter Blender
podcast. I should do another episode of the Banter Blender.
I haven't done one in a while. Have you not been doing
it, Ben? I've been lazy. Maybe
tomorrow. Maybe I'll do one
tomorrow. I've got an open sketch. uh i'm ben but make it into heaven ben i'm ben and that other ghostly voice that you
might be hearing that's ronnie carom from trash talk tv.com what's up ronnie well hello everybody
i'm so happy to be here i know ronnie i'm sorry. I didn't do the typical list of superlatives to introduce you.
So let me say it again.
I have none today, Dunning.
I don't deserve any.
That is the funny.
No, you deserve it all.
That is the funny, deserving, wonderful, charming, sweet, lovely, and occasionally British Ronnie
Karam from TrashTalkTV.com.
Don't be nice to me.
I can't take it.
Yay.
We did it.
We're here.
We did. We're caffeinated. I would like to thank everyone for coming. I can't take it. Yay. We did it. We're here. We did.
We're caffeinated.
Thank everyone for coming.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
And who else?
So, wow.
As you can probably tell, we are caffeinated and we are ready to podcast.
We just recorded our bonus episode of the week.
Yes, that was so fun.
the week actually that was so fun well for those of you don't know what the bonus episode is is that you can go to patreon.com p-a-t-r-e-o-n.com forward slash watch what crap happens and uh guess
what that if you uh support us there you get access to a bonus episode this week we went through
bravo's real housewife awards which is rip-off of our crappy awards.
And we went through every category. A rip-off of their A-list awards.
Exactly. It's just a simulacrum
at this point.
Basically, we went through every category
and we talked about
all the nominees and who
we felt was most deserving in every single
stupid category. And we had a lot
of fun and now we are amped up because we just went we are amped up, because we just went to an award
show! Yeah, we just went to an award
show, and David was filling all the seat
fillies. Yeah.
Also, we had a lot of rage
about Real Housewives of New Jersey being up
for anything, much less something in every
award. I mean, that is really reaching, Bravo.
The only thing more insulting than having
a fake award show that we haven't been invited
to is nominating Real Housewives of New Jersey in that fake award show.
Not cool, man.
Well, thank you for at least devaluing the thing we weren't invited to online.
Yeah.
So anyway, if you want to hear our thoughts on the Real Housewives awards and the categories, we encourage you to go to patreon.com forward slash watch where crap ends.
Sign up there if you haven't already and support us there there and you will find uh find a way to hear the bonus episode um also on
facebook.com forward slash watch for crappins if you like us there you can be part of a really fun
active vibrant watcher crappins community which continues to be funnier and funnier every passing hour.
Just some highlights from just even since our last episode.
Last episode, we were making some jokes about a fictional person named Gondola Price being the new cast member of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
And people have just taken that and run with it on our Facebook page and cracking all sorts of jokes.
Posting photos.
And they're putting up pictures and stuff.
Yeah.
Someone even, let's see if they're putting up pictures and stuff. Yeah, someone even,
let's see if I can even find who it was.
Someone was like,
what would a Gondola Price's tagline be?
But of course now it's buried.
That question's buried.
All this other shit people are posting.
But I keep on thinking about it.
I'm trying to imagine what Gondola Price's tagline might be.
I'm actually looking for birthdays
because we're supposed to be saying happy birthday.
We already missed any Adams Brabano. Or did we say happy birthday? we're supposed to be saying happy birthday. We already missed Emmy
Adams-Burbano. Or did we say
happy birthday? I don't remember. We didn't.
We didn't give Emmy a birthday shout out.
We should because Emmy is wonderful. But we have to
give a happy birthday to Ashley
Fishback from my love
David. David gives Ashley
Fishback a happiest birthday.
Ashley Fishback
help me. Help me. Ashley Fishback, I happiest birthday. Ashley Fishback, help me.
Help me.
Help me.
Ashley Fishback, I hope you have a wonderful, wonderful birthday.
And I hope you do nothing but listen to our podcast for 24 hours straight.
Right?
Isn't that what we want?
That's a lot of crazy on your birthday, girl.
Anyway.
Anyways.
Anyways, and you can follow us on social media because we have Twitter.
We have the Instagram. And you go to
WatchWhatCrapHands.com to hear that, to follow us.
So I'm loopy today because
I
finally caught up on all my big brothers.
And that shit was
crazy. I was just in my house for a week
talking to myself day in and day out. It was
so fun. But I'm so tired and I haven't slept.
But man, I just want to keep doing that. Like, just being in my house talking to myself. But and day out. It was so fun, but I'm so tired and I haven't slept. But man, I just want to keep doing that.
Like just being in my house talking to myself.
But if I'm loopy, that's why.
You'll be like Steve from Big Brother.
I love Steve.
Oh no, that's the dentist.
Steve is a little Jewish kid.
Why does he hate Becky?
Did we ever figure out?
Well, he mentioned on last night's episode that,
because I guess she's targeted him a few times as like a pawn or whatever.
But he's always out of the loop on everything.
So he doesn't like that.
Oh, okay.
Anyway, it's not about Big Brother.
Sorry.
Anyway, so I found what I was talking about before.
So Noah Sintek wrote on our page, what would Gondola Price's taglines be?
So Morgan Adolph said, if the gondolas are rocking don't come a knocking
laurie ann cummins wrote uh cummins wrote try to row me away and i come flying back
i wrote and i wrote i actually threw in a thing in the towel i said
sit down if you're rocking my boat.
It's a little Guys and Dolls reference.
Some people say that you can't fly up a mountain with oars as your wings.
I'm here to prove them wrong.
That's too long, right?
How about, if people try to make a mountain out of a molehill, I'll just take a me to the top.
hill, I'll just take a me to the top.
Plenty of people who ride me get motion sickness.
If you try to rock me,
you're going to wind up in the drink.
I'm terrible at this.
I don't care if the water's dirty,
as long as it's rich.
I will sing
to you all I want, but the moment you
don't pay me, I'm throwing you in the Venice
canals. No, that's very clunky.
Very clunky. Yeah, you see,
she's not an easy one to write for, this Gondola Price.
She's gonna be the bane of our
existence. She's tough.
I can't decide if Gondola Price... I can't
tell if she's like a Dorinda type, or if she's more of a Lisa Vanderpump Gondola Price type. I just't decide if Gondola Price. I can't tell if she's like a Dorinda type or if she's more of a
Lisa Vanderpump Gondola Price type.
I just can't tell which way she goes.
I don't care if it's a ski mountain
or a beautiful ocean. I'm ready
to dip my oars in.
It's not working.
I may be up a creek, but I won't be without a paddle.
We are
going to get this poor girl fired before she even starts before she even exists
gondola price i'm really excited for gondola price i feel like she's gonna mix things up i
think she's gonna become uh friends with lisa first um but then i think she is going um to
be a wedge between l and Kyle, perhaps.
I was just...
This isn't the one... Okay, there's another one
who's supposedly they're looking for
on New York. They're trying to
get for New York. I don't even know what the fuck I'm talking
about, as usual. But they're trying
to get this new chick for New York, and
she jet-sets around
the world, taking pictures
of sunsets on her rich, fabulous vacations and selling them in art galleries.
You know what?
Fuck off.
I would be so pissed if I went to an art gallery and some bitch was like, oh, yes, here was our vacation in the Nile.
Look at this sunset.
Could you imagine?
That's a full on Yolanda Foster art gallery right there.
Like, oh, you know, I'm just so sick of going to the Amalfi Coast, David.
I have an art gallery. We have Bella's first pair of shoes there. Like, oh, you know, I'm just so sick of going to the Amalfi Coast, David. I have an art gallery.
We have Bella's first
pair of shoes there.
And then
if nobody wants them, we'll give them
to the other one.
We'll have
our manservant Anwar take
them to the other one.
By the way, speaking of galleries,
Mally Johnson
posted on our page, this is
very important. Very, very
important. Three years ago
today, Gaga Girls
premiered on Bravo, aka Gallery
Girls. Gaga Girls.
Three years ago today.
It's a
and it's a shame that that
show is not still with us.
It was wonderful.
In fact, speaking of the crappies, it won our first, I believe, the first golden crappie for best Bravo TV show of the year.
Yeah.
Man, you've got to be real class to win that award.
Yeah.
I think Vanderpump Rules won this last year, just barely edging out Game of Crowns.
Oh, you see?
You see?
We know how to pick them.
Game of Crowns, probably gone you see? You see? We know how to pick them. Game of Crowns, probably gone.
Galler Girls, probably gone.
Vanderpump Rules has escaped us so far.
Yeah, I think the reason why we gave it to Vanderpump Rules
is because Vanderpump Rules actually won so many of our award categories
that it just kind of felt like it had to be,
that Vanderpump Rules would just sweep the crappies.
I know.
It's just that normally if we pick a show it dies, and that one escaped
us, but I think it's because I really
hated that show the first year, so I didn't really
love it, so maybe that's why it stayed on, because I
hated it so much. But then it stayed
on, and now, of course, Obsessed!
Well, nothing on
Vanderpump Rules ever dies.
That's all you got.
You can't kill that one off unless you have some industrial grade disinfectant.
And by the way, there is some Vanderpump Rules gossip, which is that Stassi is rumored to be back.
Because I guess she was dumped by her boyfriend.
And now she's apparently living with Krystal and they are best friends.
Who does that?
Of course, that pathetic piece of trash, Stassi.
Come on, Stassi.
Aren't you better than that?
You publicly quit a show and diss everybody on it.
And then the second you get dumped by your boyfriend, you come crawling back, darling.
I don't even think she's going to be on the show.
I think she's just going to be bitching the car with Kristen.
And Kristen's going to be like, you won't believe what happened today at work.
Tom was flirting with that girl that he cheated with.
Well, Kristen's been fired.
So I don't know.
I mean, between the two of them, maybe they'll open up like a little taco stand down Robertson Boulevard.
You know, I don't know.
You'll be like, you need to steal more of those goat cheese balls or we're going to have nothing to fill the tacos with, Kristen.
Who does that?
Who does that?
It's my birthday.
I'm looking forward to that show coming back There should be some good stuff between Jax getting arrested
And Stassi crawling her way back
I just hope that Stassi is no longer dressing like Lady Bird Johnson
I want her to be youthful
And bitchy again
Yeah
It was too fast where she was like
I'm going to be a rich wife
And so she started dressing in QVC clothes and stuff.
It's like, no, honey, it's going to take a little more than that.
I know.
And she gained weight.
It was a disaster.
She needs to get back to her prime shallowness.
After the baby, darling.
After the baby.
That's when you just become yourself.
All right.
Before then, you're a skinny bitch.
You don't eat.
You take everyone down to keep your job on television.
Now, darling, go write an editorial for Divine Addiction, alright?
Three things you learned
while being dumped
Instagram's hurtful
eh
um, eh
who does that?
See, seriously
really
and in conclusion,
really?
Seriously?
86 is a decent possible husband.
And in conclusion,
literally, if you've made it
to the end of this article, I would
just go outside and hang myself.
Like, why am I even alive?
You are so pathetic.
You deserve to be torn apart by alligators on pickup trucks.
Seriously.
It's like as sad as anybody who has a birthday on the same day as me.
Like, congratulations.
You'll always not be first place.
My birthday is a special day.
It's a time when Katie gets things thrown on her, okay?
It's a time when Katie gets things thrown on her. Okay? It's my birthday!
And she was also too mature to have her big birthday thing this year.
I don't know.
I don't know why I read these articles with Stassi.
Look, I called her a stupid piece of trash,
but apparently I've read every article that she's ever done since she's been alive.
So there you go.
I'm a hypocrite.
I love you, Stassi.
That's the truth.
Come back!
Come back. so there you go I'm a hypocrite I love you Stassi that's the truth come back come back we want
the truth is that the last season
of Vanderpump Rules was entertaining but it
wasn't nearly as
juicy as the first two seasons so they need to get
their scandals going
yeah but it was also very gratifying
to me because I really
like when people are raised by
parents who tell them how wonderful and amazing they are.
And then they go out into the real world
and they realize, oh, wait, I'm not.
I'm a waiter and some piece of shit D-lister
who still has to be a waiter to keep her job.
Like, this sucks.
And I like watching people get humbled
or like the fact that she got told off
and then lost her job and then lost her boyfriend.
Like, there's something about that
that makes me like a bitch.
It's like a sharp rock in the ocean, and then it just gets worn down, darling.
And then before you know it, you're putting it in the microwave,
putting it on Panty's back, and, you know,
praying to God that it's all going to work out with gay husband, darling.
Oh, darling, she's just like a pebble that's been in a tumbler for 48 hours,
just smooth, lovely jewelry trinket trash. Be my
heartstone, Stussy. Yes.
Alright. Why are we talking about these bitches?
I don't know, but I love it. Why don't we move
on to
Real Housewives of
New York City.
Let's do it!
Season finale.
Season finale.
Something really odd has happened on the Real Housewives of New York.
Really, really weird.
Where they set up the parties for the fights.
And I've noticed it happened on Beverly Hills this year, too.
The finale is like the big fight thing.
And everybody's supposed to go.
And there's a huge brawl.
And then they have it out at the reunion, which they do at this reunion uh as is rumored
but i've noticed that that's just failing lately they can't do it like they keep setting up these
parties but the women all know the drill now and they know when they're being manipulated
well except sonia she's still but everybody else seems to know and so they're just not fighting
they're like oh we'll just have manners and well the's over the new york women you know they have fights but their fights are never like on the same level as orange county
fights or even beverly hills you know they were back in the in the zarin days they got they had
fights i mean they had feuds and everything and they would they would fight but the fight for
instance this week was no different than the fights in other weeks.
You know, the only difference is that there was there wasn't as much awkwardness involved with this fight because it was I guess maybe we're just so used to them fighting in public. You know, it seems like they're all like tired of the same job.
You know?
Yeah.
It's like, well, I heard that Kristen said and Sonia, you know, coming in with her fucking bow from her headpiece intern or whatever.
She's ready to fight.
And then Kristen's like, eh, no.
Yeah, well, before we get to that, why don't we start at the top where Sonya's at home and she's tinkering on computer number three.
And Ramona comes in.
And this is after the fashion show.
She's like, I just want to say you did a wonderful job last night on the fashion show.
And it reminds me of this one time when I was a child.
I went to a science fair, okay?
And I made a toaster out of light bulbs.
And I made a cookie.
And my dad said, that's okay, but I've seen it better.
And I just cried the whole rest of the day, okay?
So I can't give you huge amounts of applause because it reminds me too much of my father and how he withheld all sorts of praise.
Okay?
I'm sorry.
At the end of the day, you turned a terrible toaster that no one wanted to buy into a lovely dress that looks like it's from Dillard's.
And people, you know, maybe people will buy it.
I might steal one from one of you.
You know?
I mean, that's something.
I'm proud of you, hon.
I'm proud of you? You know? I mean, that's something. I'm proud of you, hon. I'm proud of you. You know what?
Your dresses, they remind me of this
one look that Geraldine Parsons-Smith used to
wear, and I used to love it, and I said, can I borrow
this? And she said, no, you can never have it because
you're ugly. Okay, so to this day,
I can't wear those sorts of dresses. I'm sorry, Sonia,
I can't wear your dresses.
I like that Sonia's so full of shit.
Like, we don't all know that she's living a
great garden's life where the electricity is only on when people are in the house.
Or, you know, like she won't turn on the air conditioning or the hot water in her house.
I mean, we know she's full of shit.
So when I see her on the phone, Ramona is about to come over and she's like, what?
Queen of England?
What did you hear about my friends on the red carpet?
It's like, shut up, Sonya.
No one is calling you from page six
get out of here i know oh what a shock she's here she is ramona singa sting a sting sting
and then ramona's like pretending there to be she's there to be supportive and she's like
i'm so proud of you that you know your, your dresses didn't electrocute any interns like those toasters.
You know, look at me.
I'm new.
I'm new.
Like you think.
I'm new and renewed.
It's like she immediately turns it to herself.
Yeah.
I know.
Well, she was like, yeah, I just came from church.
Okay.
I was at church and I was praying.
All right.
And I was thinking to myself, you know what?
I pray that Sonia can start up computer number four because I know she really needs the parts for it.
Okay?
Oh, that is funny.
She just came from Ash Wednesday.
That shit was hilarious.
Well, I loved also Sonia was like talking about like the success of her fashion show.
She's like, you know what?
Like I'm building a brand that I own and will be around for a long time.
I'm like, that's right.
It's literally going to be in boxes and in the corner of marshals
for a very very long time and sonia i love her she's like well you know we just got all of this
done with my line so i have time to go party and go on vacation i'm like that is not a real business
you liar it's like the season is over all right box up the little indian guy we had out here
deflecting bethany questions let's move on with it. Yeah, seriously.
So then... Seriously.
Seriously. So then Ramona's
talking about her fight
with Bethany, you know,
and everything. And she's saying, you know,
all I did, I was talking to Heather,
okay, I was talking about Bethany,
I was talking about, you know, how her first marriage
failed, and, you know, I should never have said
it. It was just a conversation. It was a conversation. And
Sonia goes, yeah, you're brainstorming.
Like, what? You're brainstorming.
I don't even know
the proper terminology, darling.
I love that.
And Ramona's defense. What? We were
talking about it. It was a conversation. Why am I
getting in trouble for a conversation? I don't understand.
Yeah. I just went to
Catholic Church. I got an
ass cross on my head. You know what they were doing?
They were having a conversation there. Is Jesus
going to come down and burn down the church? No.
The preacher was just conversing. That's all.
I mean, what are you going to sue him? Sue the preacher.
Sue the Bible, all right? It's just trying
to converse with you. You know, there were a lot of hot
guys at that church. You know what? I was like,
I see a lot of men here, you know?
I was like, I want to make a move, you know?
But you know what? They're all
bartenders, though, so I'm not going to go.
One thing Jesus
knew, don't date a bartender.
Did he ever date a bartender? No.
So why should I? It's a conversation I'm having,
that's all. You know, there was this one hot guy,
and he was so hot, and I was like,
you know, I could see he was making moves
on me, and he was looking at me, and then like, yeah. I could see he was making moves on me. He was looking at me.
And then at one point, he tried to offer me wine.
And I was like, oh, you're just a bartender.
No, Ramona, that was actually the priest I think you were doing.
You're supposed to do your communion there.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
I just don't understand this dating and this religion, you know?
Like I'm trying to understand how it's working now because Mario's not here.
And I go to church and I hear all of this, let Jesus come into you.
And I'm like, when did the Catholic church change so much?
You know what I want to do with this church?
I want to demolish the inside and make it the second location for AOA, okay?
It's closer to my house.
We're going to put down a big checkerboard floor.
So Sonia was giving her a little shit, which was fun.
Because Ramona, of course, every year has a renewal or something.
I'm new and improved.
New beginnings.
New beginnings, okay.
So, she has one every single year.
And Sonia's like, I don't understand.
What's the transition?
I mean, last year, you were divorced and miserable.
And this year, you're getting divorced and miserable. I mean, what's the difference?
And she's like, but this year it's all
about me, because other years
I've been a wife and a mother
and, you know, my whole life has been about
everybody else. I'm sure your life has
ever been about anybody else. Yeah. Name
the time. Name the period in your life
even before your ass was famous.
Well, there was that one afternoon when I allowed
someone else to wear Ramona blue.
That was when it was not about me.
Okay?
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
And for you to think otherwise, it's day class A.
I'm sorry.
You know that Ramona was the kind of mother who would be like,
Listen, I cannot believe you're stressing me out right now at your ballet recital.
All right?
It's your ballet.
I paid for these classes.
All of my friends are here, and you look fat in your outfit.
All right?
You're stressing me out.
It's like, Jesus, it's not about you, mother.
I know.
So anyway, then we moved on to the unveiling of Bethany's apartment, which is finally done.
So guess what?
She's no longer homeless.
Yay, we're solving the homeless problem in New York City one person at a time.
I don't have to pee on the street anymore.
You know, that's what we're doing now with de Blasio here.
You're expected to just piss on the street.
I'm like, look, street, I don't know you, street.
I don't know the street.
Why would I piss on it?
I'm not going to piss on this street.
I'm not having a birthday party on the street.
If you ask me about the street one more time, I'm literally going to be on the floor.
Okay, I may be crying.
My walls are up.
Walls are up.
Bethany, really, I have grown to love her again this season.
Me too.
Because she's an asshole.
She really is.
She is.
I mean, this scene opens up with her like, oh, oh, God, here we are.
Finally, we have it.
You know what I want?
You know what I want in here?
I want flowers.
I want to be that person.
I want every week.
I want there to be flowers over there and fresh flowers over there.
And, you know, it'll make me less exhausted and tired, you know, and I want them to be flowers over there and fresh flowers over there. It'll make me less exhausted and tired.
And I want them to be flowers I know.
So just make sure that they call me first and have an interview with me or something.
Shut up, bitch.
Please.
Just stop.
Stop.
I need flowers there because it reminds me of the vases that my father used to break over my mother's head.
Okay?
Just have vases everywhere.
All right?
Oh. My father used to break over my mother's head, okay? Just have vases everywhere, all right? And then Carol comes over, and they're walking around.
But it's like, no, I can't be mad at Ramona.
You know, it's like being mad at a four-year-old.
You know, you just can't be mad, okay?
You know what?
If you ask me to be mad, I'm going to be on the floor crying, okay?
My walls are up.
My mad walls are up, all right?
And Carol's like, yeah, but, you know.
What did she say?
She said something.
And Bethany's like, yeah, because you're sleeping with the four-year-olds.
Of course you don't get bothered by it because you're having sex with them.
I was like, whoa.
Yeah.
And Carol's like, no, he's 28.
That's very offensive.
He's not 20.
He's 23.
Don't be different different He can drink legally
So then anyway
So they make this like an apartment tour
Like you're watching
Selling New York or whatever
So we have to see all of
And I cannot believe that all the chandeliers
Weren't made out of skinny
girl bottles, so congrats for that.
Otherwise, you know, it was very
beautiful, but I don't know.
There's something so snotty about her.
It's not that she has the money. It's how she just
talks. Like, oh, okay, cameras, we're
rolling. Okay, I want to talk about how I want fresh flowers
everywhere and how this chandelier was handmade for me
by a princess.
International lifestyle brand. She didn't think i can get it done uh oh yeah was she talking about carol
when she's like i'm glad carol could come because she didn't think i could get it done so fast but
you know homegirl doesn't know me i'm like what is it with bethany and knowing people yeah that's
they don't know me about every that's how she judges everything and everybody which is
how they know her or how she knows them yeah exactly she's like well they don't she doesn't
know me homegirl doesn't know me i can put walls up like this my walls are up apartment done that's
how i learned at the racetrack you know you don't just put put your buddy on a horse you don't
you don't know you know you gotta know the horse by the way i want to ever imitate bethany i know
i want you i'm realizing right now that now that secrets and wives is done i've started to use the lies impersonation for bethany
which makes no sense whatsoever i'm like yeah i've got like half of dorinda and half of uh
ramona i think it should be an easy one i don't know why we can't do bethany i think because once
you have an accent like that it's like how many different voices can have the same accent i guess
does that make sense i know i know it's like how many different voices can have the same accent, I guess.
Does that make sense?
I know.
I know.
It's hard.
Especially because if we're talking so quickly, it's just easy to just gravitate towards a more dominant accent for ourselves. Which is why a lot of times when I'm doing a voice, it suddenly becomes Australian for no reason or Toya.
Well, it's not like our other accents are dead on either.
So I don't know why I can't just come up with some bad impersonation for her and stick with it.
Well, I think the reason is because we have certain accents that we go to all the time.
And those are like our main accents.
And there are certain accents that are like they have different nuances.
And so you try to do a more nuanced version of like a standard accent.
Standard.
And what happens is that inevitably the nuances go away and you wind up doing the original one.
I like this.
This is like inside the actor studio for our crappy accents.
Yeah, this is really deep.
This is how this podcast works, guys.
Yeah, you guys.
We're just going to take a minute to talk about our process.
Yeah.
God girls.
Three anniversary.
Talk about the process yeah there's gonna be an
extra two dollar processing fee on your patreon charges this month because we're talking about
our process so um let's see here uh we're still at bethany car's and I don't know why I hated, loved this scene
so much, but I love when Bethany's
walking around her house and she's like, oh,
yeah, that's just my closet. I don't need a big closet anymore.
I mean, who cares? It's a closet. Like, who cares?
What am I going to do with the closet? Like, put things in it?
Who cares? I don't need to live in the closet. I'm just looking to have
a house, you know? I could be homeless. You know where I hung
stuff up before? There's nowhere. Nowhere. That's where.
I was always wrinkled. And the closet's
huge. It's like a fucking
one-bedroom apartment. She's like, I don't need a huge.
I don't need a huge. You know what?
I don't need a big closet. I mean, seriously, like, kill me right now.
Kill me right now with a big closet. I don't need it.
You know what I need? I need a child
and I need a father who's not gonna be an asshole.
You know what? That's all I need. I need a wall.
My wall is up. That's all I need. Okay? Wall up. That's it.
Crying in the closet. Talk about me one more time.
I'm in the closet crying on the floor. Okay? You know what? Enough.
I put a bucket here
just in case.

Because Bethany will pee in a bucket wherever she is.
I don't know what it is with that girl, but she'll just pee in a bucket.
So then we move on to, do you have anything else about this scene?
Well, just that this is the beginning of Carol's nonstop.
Man, Carol's usually pretty cool on this show.
Like, she doesn't let shit get to her.
But this is just nonstop.
Every scene she's in and everybody she talks to, they're like, how are you?
She's like, oh, well, the kid's doing good.
He almost got out of his car seat the other day, but I still blew him.
And Luann, wow, what a but yeah luann's mean to me but uh luann well luann is
luann is sort of out of control you know i love the way she is i'm not saying she's wrong but
it's like every scene it's like that girl that won't stop talking about the same thing over well
kind of like us kind of like us on this show.
Exactly.
Well, so then we move on to Dorinda.
Dorinda and John having – Dorinda!
They go to – they decide to go to a gluten-free – they go to this restaurant.
And Dorinda's like, oh, look, John.
It's gluten-free.
You better back.
You better back the hell up, gluten.
You better back it up.
Back it up right now, gluten.
So they go in this gluten-free
list. Are you trying to
tell me something? And she's like,
no, but I was last night when I was pressing
the medic alert button because you
rolled over on me again, John. You gotta
stop doing that, John.
One day I'm just gonna be a red balloon in your
bedroom and you're gonna be sorry, John.
So then they go in and the first thing they do is they order
burrata and pizza and a bread basket and potato skins and fries and like another pizza and then
like a steak and then a chocolate cake i was like you guys are really uh really on this health kick
huh aren't you but for some reason for some reason i started laughing because when the waiter came
over i know how much you love when they show the waiter but when the waiter came over, I know how much you love when they show the waiter, but when the waiter came over, Dredge was like, I'll have a Coca-Cola, please.
I was like, this is petty of me, but I can't remember the last time anyone ordered a Coke by the full brand name.
I'll have a Coca-Cola, please, from the Coca-Cola company, TM.
Thank you very much.
I would like an Albertsons, Mr. Peeper.
Thank you.
If you don't have that just nothing alright
Just water is fine
I'll have a C&C Cola please
And if you can tell me what the C's are I'd appreciate that
So I can order in full name thank you
You are the waiter right
Oh my god
I'll have an Icy Cola
Which of course is being a Royal Crown Cola please
Oh I'm sorry say it again I want to hear it I said I'll have, Royal Crown Cola, please. Oh, I'm sorry. Say it again. I want to hear it.
I said, I said, I'll have a Royal Crown Cola, please.
Whatever.
It doesn't matter.
I'm sorry.
I'm the worst at that. And I'm like, damn it.
I don't have a rewind on this.
I'm not listening to this shit later.
For three and a half years, I've been waiting to make an RC Cola joke.
And you just stepped right all over it.
You better back up.
You better back up now, mister.
I just shit all over it. I just did that. You better back up now, mister. I just shit all over it.
I just did that because it wasn't nice to my
daughter, and that was my sister with my daughter.
Dorinda says
so much shit that, like, I don't
understand what she's talking about half the
time. She's like, John is
very needy, which, of course, John
is now needy, and I don't know what
made him needy, because we just saw
him at Boutique a few episodes with, like, 19-year-old Russian hookers, and I don't know what made him needy because we just saw him at Boutique a few episodes with, like, 19-year-old Russian hookers.
So I don't know why he's so needy now.
I think the reason why he's needy is that probably one of his friends said, hey, you ever notice how your girlfriend sort of looks like an ice cream sundae?
He's like, give me her.
Give me her.
Now I'm nervous every time I'm around her.
Yeah, so Dorinda says weird things.
She's like, john is suddenly very
sensitive because he's never seen this side of me before i've always been grieving and now i'm out
having fun you know if it was a potato sack jane if it was percent if it was a potato sack game
john would love being in the potato sack with me yeah what what does that mean i don't even know
what that means first of all if you think John's going to be hopping
around anywhere on purpose, no.
And what are you talking about?
Stop trying to give John a boner by talking about potatoes.
Yeah. I think what she
was saying, that he always wants to be close to her, and that
he would love the potato sack game, because
that way they'd be all right up on each other.
But still, I wrote that down, too. John would love
a potato sack game. And guess
what? If you don't want to be in a sandwich, don be in a sandwich be in a potato sack dorinda's another one who
has to remind you of how much money she has in every scene she's in she's like john oh you're
so ridiculous john what am i gonna do if i take you to the south of france mr jetson yeah like
oh we get it do they know you in every neighborhood in the south of france too
please woman give me a break with this she's like the map lady the thomas maps lady she's like
i've been on every street here i can tell you where everything is and how far it is from a 7-eleven
mr jensen mr jensen so then john's like well i thought i needed to talk to about and uh and then she's like well
if you have a ring in your pocket don't bring it out of the pizza place she's like one thing i'm
willing to commit to john another basket of bread get that waiter over here gluten-free bread so
it's healthy we're basically losing weight as we eat so he's basically about to propose. And she's like, no, Mr.
No, Mr. I'm not going to say
Mr. Justin. I'm trying to think of the guy.
Would you be mine? Would you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?
Mr. Rogers. Who's that? Mr. Rogers.
Mr. Fat Mr. Rogers.
Don't do it. I knew something was wrong
when you were wearing a sweater.
Because he does not look right in a sweater.
I don't know why that
bothered me but i was like i think that's a new look i don't like it even notice that it doesn't
look right mr right he looks like he's trying too hard to make her believe that he reads things and
nobody believes that john just stop okay you're good enough you're smart enough and at least
jarenta likes you okay yeah the whole world doesn't have to want to fuck you just one person
always that is right That is right.
I thought it was interesting what she was talking about.
I'm sorry. I'm going to skip off a little.
I thought it was interesting when she was talking about
how it's different this time
because when you're younger, you're worried
about, am I going to marry this guy?
What is he going to be like as a father
to my children? I have to have kids.
What's his job like?
There's so much that goes into it. What like right what neighborhood in london is he going
to be able to afford because if i'm going to know everybody i don't want to be living in the terrible
parts where you know i want to be in the parts with the glasses so clean you're knocking your
head into it like a stupid bird okay that's where i'm gonna live yeah now she's just like i'm old
i'll you know i'll take whatevs yeah he's fine yeah well now she's dating like, I'm old and I'll take whatevs. He's fine. Well, now she's dating like a gay man.
She doesn't have to think about kids
and
marriage.
You're my home base bear.
Yeah. Is that John in the background?
Sorry, it's Bueller. I don't know.
I don't know why he's barking.
Bueller's always so quiet during the podcast.
It feels so appropriate to have a dog barking
while Dorinda's
going on a tirade about something.
Hey, John, if I take you to the south of France,
how many croissants are you going to eat?
I got a lot of friends with croissant bakers.
Listen, John, don't try and order
one of these gluten-free's in the south of France.
Or I'll kick you out. Don't embarrass me
in my south of France neighborhood, John.
That's all I'm saying. It's hard to go back there as it is. John right, I'll kick you out. Don't embarrass me in my south of France neighborhood, John. That's all I'm saying.
You know, it's hard to go back there, isn't it?
John, if I take you to London, you need to look at the light
because the light's different in London, okay?
You better back up, back up,
before you make fun of the light in London.
John, I want to go to London with you,
but I don't trust you around the windows there yet.
All right?
I've been there for years, John, and it's still confusing.
You know, I don't want to hurt my boo-boo bass.
So John's, like, trying to get
something, you know, concrete.
Yeah, he wants to start talking
about moving in, and she's not sure.
And he...
In the end, their conversation
just ended with them both standing up and giving a very
awkward hug, because...
I mean, I'm trying not to make too many jokes about
John being fat, but he honestly is so fat that he
moved the table when he tried to stand up
been there done that do
it often yeah
yeah it sucks being fat
you know like wondering if you can even
sit on that chair if it's gonna break or like
when you're sitting on a chair and you're like oh my god this shit's
gonna break I feel it break like you can feel
the fibers of the chair screaming
it's like one of those Pixar movies where they make like,
you know,
the micro microscopic little things in plastic live.
And you're like,
Oh my God,
I never thought about plastic bags before,
but I've been so uncaring this whole time.
Yeah.
I feel the Pixar chair is like,
no,
don't sit on me.
Don't sit on me.
Don't sit on me.
My knees are weak.
And it says,
Oh no.
And then they're all the little,
like the,
the,
the fork on the floor is like, Oh no, cherry's going to fall apart's gonna fall apart oh no oh i'm like please don't base this on my life
i never want to walk into a dollar store and see clearance rack items based on chairs that i broke
here's a towel remember that poor sad chair that pixar movie that that dude sat on oh that poor
thing little wonky but you know what, though? If the chair breaks,
maybe it's time for that chair to then have
a new beginnings party.
Can chairs
do that? Yeah. They turn into
stools. They're still like, I broke, but, you know,
I just got myself up, I dusted myself
off, and, you know, I went to Target and
bought myself a new me. And so here I am!
You know what? The back of me fell off
and at first I was like, oh my god, there's an
essential part of me as a chair. And then I realized,
you know what? I'm okay without that. I'm a
stool now. I don't need the back. I'm my own
creature now. And I'm okay with that. So
let's have a toast to me
being the new stool in town, okay?
Okay? As long as this
stool can get laid, I'm fine! Cause there's
men everywhere! Everywhere!
Mario has no place in my life anymore.
But, you know,
don't forget a tickle box, please.
I like that the chair has a Ramona voice.
That the chair
is this, like, really
recently divorced chair
that is kind of an asshole,
doesn't treat the other chairs properly.
The other chair's like,
hey, that was my spot at the bar.
I'm so sorry.
You know, I just took it.
You know what?
You know what?
It's my spot now.
Well, that's not nice.
That's my spot.
You know what?
That was wrong of me, and I'm sorry.
You know, you can't just do those things and apologize afterwards.
You know what?
Okay.
No, you're right.
You're right.
You know what?
We all take different spots, okay?
And that's okay, okay?
So I'm sorry.
Poor chair man green.
You know, he can't get back into the dating game.
It's really hard to let somebody sit on your face after you've been crushed like that.
Another chair comes up and is like, you know what?
I heard that you've been talking about that I was a different kind of chair and then that the owner decided just to sell me at a flea market, okay, just to get rid of me, all right?
That's not what happened, and I don't appreciate you saying those things.
I'm sorry.
That's just what I heard.
No, I never was sold.
I was refurbished, okay?
I was refurbished, and you can't keep saying these things about me, okay, stool?
I'm sorry, and I apologize.
You can't keep apologizing like that, okay?
This is ruining my reputation, all right?
I'm not friends with Doreen anymore because she is now a chair in the new wife's house.
So, fuck her.
That's not girl code.
That's not chair code.
Okay.
You know what I heard?
Hey, you know what I heard about that chair over there?
I heard it was reupholstered.
Yeah.
Excuse me. I heard that you've been saying that I've been reupholstered. Yeah. Excuse me.
I heard that you've been saying that I've been reupholstered.
I'm just, you know, it was a conversation.
It was a brainstorm.
It was a brainstorming session.
That's all.
Well, please don't say things about me being reupholstered.
I've never been reupholstered in my life.
I'm sorry.
You know, it's just what I heard.
That's all.
You know, I'm sorry.
Okay.
Please, let's make a chair, Real Housewives.
A Real Housechairs.
Real Housechairs.
I want a whole episode just based
on the desk chair
in Shannon's
Lady Obama knockoff office.
Her knockoff first lady office.
Like, hello, Megan. Hold on a second.
Let me just get comfortable in this
chair here. I want to know what the chair
is thinking, you know?
She sits down on the chair and the chair is probably like,
who's this?
Who's this?
I'm sick of your chair. I'm sick of your attitude chair. Yeah. She sits down on the chair and the chair's probably like, who's this? Who's this? Who's this? Who's this?
She's like, all right.
I'm sick of your chair.
I'm sick of your attitude chair, all right?
That's enough of that.
I start chairs, chair.
Ironically, Shannon will never buy an antique.
You know, because the last thing she wants is Miss 30-year-old chair.
Okay, Miss 30-year-old chair.
David? David? Have you been-old chair. David?
David?
Have you been singing
other chairs, David?
Okay, bye everybody.
Thank you for coming.
Just kidding.
David's not allowed
to sit in love seats.
David's had enough love seats.
All right?
That's enough.
He needs a bony stool now
and I'm going to give it to him.
That's it.
I'm working out.
That's it.
David?
All right.
So let's see here.
Oh, so this talk with John.
Okay, we're still in the second scene.
Oh, we're still there.
Okay.
So she's at dinner.
She's at that place with John or whatever,
and then they start talking about the daughter again,
and then he's like, well, I want to take this.
You know, I don't know what it means, but we should be doing something together.
Living together.
You know.
Ordering barata together.
Maybe not married together, but like doing something together.
And she's like, John, we're eating gluten-free bread together.
What more do you want?
She's like, if she likes you, she likes you.
If she doesn't,
she doesn't.
Let me,
what am I going to do?
The end.
Like,
John,
sorry,
but that's your answer,
buddy.
And that's not going to change.
Yeah,
John,
you've,
you've hitched your,
you've hitched your ride
onto the wrong cash cow.
And part of moving in
with somebody
when their child hates you,
hey,
listen,
buddy,
that's part of being
a step parent.
You know,
that's,
that's part of proving your love.
So just take it.
Don't expect everything to work out all the time.
Why would this girl like you?
You've done nothing for her.
Yeah, John, maybe it's time for John to move on.
I mean, if they've been dating for three years
and she still doesn't even like the idea of moving in together,
does not bode well.
Yeah, because you know he had a ring in his pocket.
Yeah, he did.
I mean, it was a donut.
It was a donut, but, you know, still. Yeah, I was going to say it was probably cut pocket Yeah, he did It was a donut, but you know, still
I was going to say it was probably cut out of a
Tostina pizza roll, but
It was a bagel
It was something with a hole in his pocket, you know that
If my boyfriend ever proposes to me
I hope he does it with a bagel, that would make me very happy
If anybody ever
Proposes to me, they better not fucking do it
In a gluten-free restaurant, I'll tell you that
There better be gluten
There better be all. There better be
all sorts of gluten everywhere. I want
twisty molecules that are going to fuck up my digestive
system for a week, alright? Yes.
I like it. What kind of marriage
is it going to be if someone's like,
do you promise to be
in a gluten-free restaurant? No, I don't.
I will not marry this gluten-free
lifestyle. No.
Well, speaking of twisty molecules,
let's talk about Ramona and her New Beginnings party.
So everyone's arriving.
Oh, and then Ramona starts with her usual Ramona cheerleader at a party.
Ramona enters every single party like this.
Hi!
Hi!
It's me!
It's me!
It's my birthday!
It's my day!
Here I am!
No one's here!
Who cares?
I'm celebrating myself.
I'm celebrating my own renewal.
I'm renewed.
Good for you, Ramona.
Oh, thank you.
It's like she's almost walking in, like, having these really loud conversations, congratulating herself on something.
I also like how whenever Ramona walks into a room, and it's only when she walks into a room, she walks like she has a peg leg.
You know?
She sort of has this weird gait where her body swings, almost like one like a one of those those inflatable things that you punch and it goes down
and comes back up again she sort of sways back and forth when she walks in she's oh okay this is nice
this is nice okay all right all right it's my birth it's my celebration new beginning new beginning
and she's swaying her hair is going back and forth maybe like a ship maybe like an old-fashioned ship
on the waves you know back and forth the mast is going left and right. Maybe like a ship, maybe like an old-fashioned ship on the waves, you know, back and forth.
The mast is going left and right.
Yes,
I actually can see
exactly what you're talking about
because she does do that.
It's like she's,
it's like you're in the,
it's a small wonder ride
where you're looking around
and you're trying to look
at all of it at once
and you're thinking,
is this cheap and awful
or is it fabulous?
Yeah.
I need somebody to tell me first.
Exactly.
It's like Ramona.
She's like,
here I am at my party.
I don't know if it's terrible but I hope it's not going to be because renewed, I'm new. I mean, if it's terrible's like, here I am at my party. I don't know if it's terrible, but I hope it's not going to be
because renewed, I'm new. I mean, if it's terrible,
don't tell me. Is it terrible? I don't know, but it's fun, right?
It's fun. We're having fun, right?
Like you're the only person here. Calm down,
lady. All right. So
Kristen's yelping your party.
So Kristen soon arrived with
her husband, Josh, who managed to stay out of
the limelight this season
probably because he got thrashed so badly
last year. Once again he was wearing
his stupid
fedora, the one that made him look like he was
in that movie
from the 60s
you know the Stanley Kubrick one
Clockwork Orange
He wishes he looked like he was in
Clockwork Orange. Those were bowlers they wore
weren't they? That's true. Those were bowlers, not fedoras.
Either way, it's like, Josh, you've been well documented.
Everyone knows that you're balding.
Take off the fedora.
If anything, put on a yarmulke.
I don't get people who are so insecure about being bald.
I'm bald.
I mean, you can't do shit about that.
Like, don't be mad about it.
Don't be mad at yourself for something you can't change, okay?
You can't change your age.
You cannot change your balding or whatever your hair loss shit like that you just have to hate
yourself for your weight or something that you can do something about yeah but like shit that
you're born with i mean what are you going to do and is it harder to identify as a bald person
or as a person who wears fedoras really i think being bald is easier the fedora you know certain
people can pull off a fedora but josh is not one of them. I have not seen one.
Not least not. Not that.
I've seen some. Maybe Quad.
Or Dick Tracy. Or the person
who does the antivirus spying
thing on the Google Chrome, you know?
And they're like, do you have a virus?
There are some people who can do
a fedora. There are some people who can do a fedora.
But Josh is not one
of them. And I'm sick of it. I'm sick of
it, Josh. Throw it in the burn pile.
Josh, we're going to have a new
renewal party for your head.
Alright? I just want new things on there.
I don't want to see this anymore, Josh. Okay?
It's new. You can maybe go
home and put it on and roll around with it in your
own bed if you want to and not tell anybody because
who are they? And it's your life and you can do that
if you want. But do not wear that hat in public you just look like an asshole and you know
and can i say something else about josh i mean i've always thought he was an asshole um but this
is going forward just a little bit but at one point when the whole gang was like sitting in
the corner and luann came over um and we'll get into this whole scene later but uh when luann
came over and everyone was like saying hi to luann and she was introducing Thomas Roberts, her gay MSNBC guest or whatever.
Everyone was like – all the men were standing up.
He just sat there.
He just sat there and shook his hand.
I was like, you are so – that sort of thing annoys me about Josh.
You're supposed to stand up as a man.
That's upper manners. Josh, I would guess just from seeing his personality on this show. annoys me about josh that he you know like you're supposed to stand up as a man that's josh josh i
i would guess just from seeing his personality on this show i would guess that he resents anybody
like more successful than him yeah and when he sees somebody like the chef who's young he just
wants to impress the chef because that's what he considers cool the other stuff he just resents
so like he's really nice to the kid he's like oh i
oh yeah i love chefs and chefs love me because i just eat so much of the food i mean how can you
not it's amazing the relationship i have i eat like a pig and kristen gains all the weight huh
poochie how about you do it babe tell him show him stand up and show him your pooch hon she's like
she's like it's so true whenever i make that thai salad for him, oh, my God, I'm the one who gains the weight.
You wouldn't hit me if I weren't fat.
So it's my fault, you know, because I can use my fitness pal, but I just don't.
So I get what I deserve.
Because I have no pals, not even a fitness pal.
Even my fitness pal keeps me outside of a box. I've been not even a fitness pal. Even MyFitnessPal keeps me outside of a box.
I've been blocked by MyFitnessPal.
Every time I try to log on to MyFitnessPal, it just crashes and rolls its eyes.
It keeps trying to erase itself off my phone.
I'm like, no, you're MyFitnessPal.
Every time I enter a blog entry into MyFitnessPal, it misquotes me.
I mean, I just don't understand
that you know what my fitness pal is my it's the only app that doesn't ask if it wants me to turn
on gps I really resent that I love gps so speaking of Kristen so Sonia comes into the party and she
is fired up she has her hat as you were talking about and Sonia's like you know what I'm not
talking to that girl today I'm not talking you, you know what? She said she gets,
there's a whole article about my line, and she's
talking about this and that, pop of color, this,
pop of color, that, pop of color. And at the very end, she
goes, now I wish Sonia came out with her
because that's something I would actually use.
So Sonia's all mad because Kristen
apparently dinged her in the press.
So that leaves us, you know, we of course
assume that Sonia's actually read this article
and that this is what actually is said in the article.
Yeah.
Never assume that Sonya is reading.
Never.
Don't let those fucking Walgreens glasses confuse you, okay?
They confuse a lot of people.
Don't let them.
They're like five cents.
Yeah.
But then what we find out a little bit later is that Kristen never like Kristen
Sonya never read the article first of all
and we see even there's even footage
of it where the guy asked her like oh
he's asking about the show and it's like oh what do you
think about Sonya's toaster and Kristen says in a
very polite sweet way she's
like oh well I hope she comes out with it
because I love toasters you know I use
toasters all day because I have children
and then the reporter was like,
I'm bored and moved on to someone else.
And she's like, hey, I said I like the toaster.
Put that in there, okay?
And now she's in trouble
for getting the toaster thing mentioned.
But then the toaster arrived in a box
and Kristen really had some issues with that.
Kristen's like, well, I had children,
but they both died trying to make a pot tart.
So thank you, Sonia. Sonia's like, oh, well, forgive, but they both died trying to make a pot tart. So thank you, Sonia.
Sonia's like, oh, well, forgive and forget.
I mean, live a little.
Yeah, Sonia was being ridiculous.
First of all, Sonia, a headscarf mistress,
because you know that's what that bitch was.
That girl, they're like, oh, not mistress, intern.
When they showed that intern a couple weeks ago
who was wearing the headscarf,
and it was like the new intern in Jaya or whatever her name was.
And I was like, oh, no.
So now Sonya is going to be wearing a fucking headpiece in every scene.
She is.
What the hell?
She really got a headscarf intern?
Who does that?
I know.
Well, maybe Meghan and King Edmonds.
Because Meghan and King Edmonds also has quite the headscarf this week.
Why would you wrap yourself like an Ann Getty's baby?
I mean, it was like a gift.
She's like, I'm going to show up to Ramona's renewal party
as a watermelon baby.
No, what are you doing?
Stop it.
Well, I love then that, you know, of course,
Luann is happy to go over and tell Kristen that,
oh, by the way, you know, Sonia is mad at you
about what you said. I don't know.
You have to talk to her.
It just drops the bomb. Kristen's like, what?
So Kristen goes over to talk to Sonia
and Sonia's just
going nuts. She goes,
I don't want to talk to you ever again about
my career, my future, or caring about
me. And I'm like, that's also, by
the way, that's the pitch for her new talk
show. It's called, it's the Sonia
show, and that's a show where you talk about her career,
her future, and caring about her.
I think that's pretty much her show. Yeah.
She already has that show. It's on,
it's a podcast called Sexy J.
Sexy J, where we talk
about my career, my future, and what you're
going to do to care for me. And how the
possums are living in the walls, and eventually
you start understanding what they're saying.
Ramona Stinga Singa.
And how best to take apart a boombox to make other
boomboxes out of it.
You know, I can't wait to
do another episode, but poor
Pickles is still trying to get the microphone working.
But the microphone intern, oh,
what a fool he is. He can't even connect to the
internet. We keep trying to plug him in and nothing.
Okay, so meanwhile,
while this is all happening,
Ramona and Bethany
are having this whole
ridiculous fight
where Ramona is trying
to apologize
for the fight
at the fashion show
and Bethany is refusing
to let her apologize.
And Bethany's like,
you know what?
You know what?
You're like a four-year-old, okay?
And Ramona's like, thank you. Thank you And Bethany's like, you know what? You know what? You're like a four-year-old, okay? And Ramona's like, thank you.
Thank you.
Bethany's like, why are you saying thank you?
This is an insult. It's not a good thing, Ramona. It's not
a good thing to be called a four-year-old.
And Ramona's like, yeah, it's true. You know
me, because sometimes I'm a six-year-old.
And that's it. That's who I am. Sometimes I act
like I'm six. And Bethany's like,
yeah, you gave yourself another couple years, so...
It's like Ramona is gave yourself another couple years so it's like ramona
is even improving herself yeah and the lie yeah and then ramona suddenly goes are you catholic
or jewish i forget in life forgiveness is good you need to learn forgiveness okay are you religious
are you catholic it's like a bitch you went to church one time and got some dirt on your forehead
that you promptly washed off after and put some cheap-ass renewal cream made from China.
Stop it.
Please stop.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, but I don't like to have ashes on my head.
I don't even understand.
Why do they put ashes?
What's the deal with Ash Wednesday?
Why don't they call it Skin Cream Wednesday?
That'd be nice.
You know what, Bethany?
If you don't like what I'm going to say, I'm going to tell you what you would have learned
in church had you had any religion
over at the racetrack, okay?
And that is, if you don't
like people talking about you cheating,
then maybe you should just turn
the cheek that didn't cheat, you know,
and then just show them that cheek.
Okay. Okay.
Why are you showing everybody
the cheater cheek? They're going to talk about it.
That's how it is, okay?
So anyway Then meanwhile through all this
Carol actually brought Adam to this party
Which of course elicited a lot of
Disdain from Luann
Who in the interview she goes
It just makes me ill
You know what Luann
I get it
The guy dated your niece But in the beginning of the season We didn't realize he was 28 It just makes me ill. I'm like, oh, you know what, Luann? I get it.
The guy dated your niece.
But in the beginning of the season, we didn't realize he was 28.
And Luann made it sound like they were, like, teen lovers.
And it's your niece for crying out loud.
The guy is 28.
Luann has to chill out.
Luann can't be going around being so annoyed that someone walked in on her when she could have had a guy in her room doing something sort of scandalous
and then all of a sudden be
totally, you know, like, I can't believe
she dated a 28-year-old. It's ridiculous.
And 28 is a big difference from 22.
Big difference, messed up, better back it up.
Back it up. Also, why is it okay for
Carol to date the help? I mean,
why isn't it okay for Carol to date the help
when it's okay for her own niece to date the help?
I mean, you'd think that that's a rule and that's so not classy, darling.
Why would you not make your own family members follow it?
You know, like, why are you so excited for your daughter to date a slave in the kitchen who's working for you for minimum wage?
Get out of here, Luann.
Yeah.
Like, your rules don't make any sense.
Luann.
Luann.
Oh, and by the way, Luann, what was the age difference between you and your ex-husband?
And you and Jacques.
I think there was a difference there.
Probably not as huge, but there was one.
So Carol is 50.
This guy is 28.
So that's a 22-year difference.
You know, Luanne had like a 16-year difference.
You know, it's...
The thing that's so funny to me about this fight, and it came out in this episode, was that Luann's not even mad about the guy.
Like, at first she wasn't mad at all.
She's like, oh, you went with the chef?
Oh, yeah, he's hot.
Oh, I hope you didn't get anything on my pots and pans.
Oh, God.
Carol's like, what does?
You mean the things I take messages on?
You mean the printer holder?
They're kind of hard to get
Sharpie off of, but I keep using
them anyway.
Yeah, she's not even mad
about that. It turns out that she's
really pissed about this stupid
barging in on her. You know, I
could have been with a man in there, and I have
a son. What if you
barged in with a camera crew and my son was there?
And he would have to see.
Honey, your son already saw you fucking Johnny Depp, you know, like Johnny Pep last year.
Johnny Pepe last year in wherever.
Please, give me a break.
And Luanne actually says, you know, you don't have a son who's 6'2".
And says, mom, really?
I'm like, what does Noelle being 6'2 have
anything to do with anything?
It would be one thing if he was short
and ugly, but he's 6'2 and hot. I don't want him to
think I'm a slut.
I don't really understand her
argument, but the whole thing was that she's
mad because Carol tried to out her with the camera
crews, and you know what?
They probably did.
They were probably like, ah, they – I don't think –
Because these women are always trying to get each other.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
First of all, Heather was leading the charge in the crazy department that morning.
Yeah, that's true.
And second of all, they were so geeked out over this entire situation that I really don't think their intention was, oh, let's go bust Luann.
Let's go, you know, let's go bust Luann.
You know what I think?
I think that Luann had a gentleman caller who had just left like half an hour earlier.
And it was such a close call that it freaked her out.
But, I mean, that's just totally based on nothing.
But, I mean, Luann needs to really chill out.
And I liked Carol's response, which was that, you know, if you're so concerned about what your son's going to think, then don't bang random dudes on vacation.
It's not that complicated.
And she's right.
Yeah, exactly. If you don't want to be caught on camera with a dude, well, then don't be on a reality show and then invite someone back.
Don't blame Carol for that, Luann.
I love you, Luann.
I think you are wonderful.
I think you are a national treasure.
But in this case, you are absolutely wrong.
And I also think, by the way,
back me up on this.
I think that Luann is jealous of Carol.
I think Luann had her sights on that chef.
Oh, for sure.
I mean, why would she care so much about this?
Luann is a
total hoe. That girl is like
a changed person, an Indian gift shop,
just like always open and all
leathery and it looks like it's been used, but it's
still just open there waiting for somebody to
buy it. That's Luann right there, you know?
And she acts like she's all like a classy
purse, but she's just an old brown
leathery Indian store purse.
And she's like, wait a second.
Carol's surgery isn't half as good as mine.
She still has her original teeth
implants. I mean, who would have sex with that over me?
I mean, come on.
I'm on iTunes.
You know that, right?
Does this young man have an iPod?
Because I'm on it.
Yeah.
Yeah, no.
Luanne, you are getting this one wrong.
I'm sorry.
I can tell you it's not on the Google Play Store.
Carol Radswell.
That's who.
Luanne is still pissed off, and I will never back down on this.
She is still pissed off that Carol embarrassed her in season one by making fun of the fact that she was trying to get free clothes and that that wasn't classy.
And that's it.
Yeah.
Luann will never, ever forgive that, ever.
Anything that Carol does for the rest of her fucking life, Luanne will be there pissed off that she got
called on wanting free shit. Yeah, and
the author of Class of the Countess
then had an incredibly classy
moment when Carol and Luanne were
pretending to sort of bury the
hatchet, being like, listen, we don't want to have this
get in the way of our friendship.
They start talking about
the guy, Adam,
or whatever his name is, and Carol says, look, I'm not introducing him to the children. And Luanne goes, I know, the guy, Adam, or whatever his name is.
And Carol says, look, I'm not introducing him to the children.
And Luanne goes, I know, because you have not.
And he goes, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
It was one of her bitchiest.
That was one of the bitchiest things she's ever done.
That was nasty.
And the fact that she does her laugh.
Yeah, because Carol's like, oh, we've all had our 20-year-olds, Luanne.
Because you know they know some shit on Luanne that they're just not bringing up. And Luann is just so flagrant with everybody else's secrets.
But no one's bringing up hers.
And you know that they all know them.
And Carol's like, yeah, well, you know, we've all had our 20-year-olds.
And Luann's like, yes, but we don't bring them home to the children.
I wasn't bringing them.
Oh, yes, because you don't have one.
That's what it was.
That's what it was.
What a bitch.
It was.
I mean, it was like, on the one hand, I had to, like, just admire the sheer bitchiness of it.
I mean, it was just so nasty.
It's like, ugh, I love Luanne.
And then the other hand, I had to be like, that was so mean.
It was really, really mean.
I mean, the reason why she has no kids is because her husband died.
Yeah.
Not cool.
Not cool, Luanne.
Not cool, Luanne, but definitely a great entry in the Countess playbook.
And then when she explained girl code, it totally sounded like my made-up song because she's like, she broke girl code.
One, she was late.
It was like these stupid – her list was so stupid.
I was like, actually, I don't think that those are girl code, any of those things.
She's like, she didn't use a coaster in my house in my room but yeah this is so petty so petty meanwhile
because there were like three different things going on at once so meanwhile there was still
sonia was still having an issue sonia was still going crazy and for some reason i wrote down this
quote because the the mics caught dorinda for some reason saying i make a pie crust i make
a spaghetti crust she was telling the chef she's like oh i love to cook i make a really wonderful
spaghetti sauce yeah really make a pie really i make a spaghetti crust oh my god she was
dorinda's so funny and by the way i also just totrack, I love that when Luan brought Thomas Roberts into the
party, no one knew who he was.
And everyone was like,
Ramona was like, do I know you?
Oh, I don't think I know you. And Sony's like, oh, I want to go talk
to this man. What's your name? And he's like, I'm
Thomas Roberts from TV. You know me
from TV. I'm Thomas Roberts. I'm the gay one.
I'm one of those people who came out and is famous
for coming out and being a news anchor. Thomas Roberts.
Anyone? They're like, I'm not familiar.
I'm not familiar. Anyway, welcome to the party.
He was saying his entire name.
Like, is he not a bartender?
Yeah. You're welcome.
Yeah. I make a pie crust.
I make a spaghetti crust.
I don't pay attention to the real world anymore.
It was just miserable and depressing.
I was like, why am I so sad?
And then I realized, I'm too attached to the world.
And now I'm not at all. I'm very happy. anyway so sonia and kristen are still fighting and kristen's like
sonia you know i like i he asked me about the toaster and i responded and like you know i was
there to support you i was 100 supportive and he asked me about the toaster and that's what i said
and so then soon it was oh so you're saying that he's stirring the pot? The reporter's stirring the pot?
What are the chances that a reporter from the Post would ever dare to stir the pot?
Sonya has a point.
And also, like, anybody gives a fuck about your toaster, Sonya, okay?
It's a national joke.
Anybody who knows who you are or knows this show makes fun of your fucking toaster.
Get over it, okay?
You made a toaster where you pose sexually on the cover of
a poster like your crispy vag is supposed to make people want to eat toast no girl if anything you
need to get yourself on a vagisil ad or something or a ky ad or something you need to be adding
moisture to your products not taking them away why the hell would an older woman put herself on a drying device? Bizarre.
Bizarre. Well, either way,
I think Sonya then walked
away from Kristen at that point, and then Dorinda
tried to facilitate healing and was like,
now, now, now, now, now,
now, now, now!
In the background. Dorinda's like, I think
she's seriously thinking about the time
that she's on the street at the Christmas time
first. And they're like, okay.
Well, thank you for coming over and talking to us.
Well, actually, at one point, Dorinda, I recorded it.
This is what Dorinda said at one point.
The more she does know she's doing better, the more she knows what she's doing.
The more she knows what she's doing, the more she says about it, the more she'll be in the mind of it.
I'd like to hear a conversation with her in quad.
She has a daffodil and has it.
Oh, it's London.
It's London.
Now everybody knows
what she's doing.
has it, honey.
Boy, she does know
what she's doing
better than she knows
what she's doing.
That's what I'm saying.
How bad is she doing?
You know,
that's what it sounds like
whenever Bravo is filming
those Summer by Bravo commercials
and they're all in the same room.
It's probably just like, what are these people even talking about?
I know.
What the hell?
Bravo didn't do a Summer by Bravo this year.
They must be having budget cutbacks.
Yeah.
Andy got a raise.
Yeah.
Andy is now driving the Summer by Bravo.
Yeah.
Commercial.
Andy took the entire budget for Summer by Bravo
and put it into tanning beds.
His new Ford Fiesta
is bought by the money that would have been spent
on that Summer by Bravo.
So then we had a weird scene
where Ramona and Bethany were still discussing things
and Ramona's like,
you know what?
Sometimes I'm afraid to trust someone so I do something on purpose to push them away.
Okay?
Okay?
And then Heather comes in out of nowhere and is like, you know what?
You guys, it's okay to like people.
It's okay to trust people.
Let people in.
You know what, Bethany?
Mama?
Holla, Mama.
Sometimes you're a bitch, and that's your choice of yours.
You don't have to be a bitch, but you're a bitch.
Ha, ha, ha.
And Ramona's like, oh, well, I don't know if I would say that to bethany and she's like oh no i mean it in a good
way mamas i mean like you're choosing to be a bitch and i support that decision because if you
want to be a horrible human being i'm okay for it and if you're ready for my loving open arms
they're here as well so whatever you decide ha ha Ha, ha, ha, ha. Whatever you want. I'm here.
And Bethany's like, what?
What the hell was that?
It was like drive-by therapy.
What was that?
You just drive by and you're like, okay, there's some therapy, childhood, racetrack, mom beat with the Hello Kitty phone.
Bye.
I mean, what the hell was that?
Do I have to tip you for that?
Like, what was that?
What was that?
Yeah.
Bethany was so confused.
It was just a drive-by.
Like, I'm just sitting here.
Am I on a sidewalk? Oh, my God, I'm on a sidewalk right now. Like, I'm just sitting here. Am I on a sidewalk?
Oh, my God, I'm on a sidewalk right now?
Like, I can't even walk.
I have to be careful.
I don't want to step on a crack and break my mother's back.
Okay, this is too much.
Okay, it's too much.
Okay, I'm down on the floor.
I'm crying.
Okay, too much.
It's straight out of Compton right there.
I mean, that girl is street.
She's a drive-by therapy?
Who does that?
Hey, you, you're fat.
Is it your childhood mommy issues?
Oh, okay.
You know what you need to do and
i was dying bethany really is funny and i think that one of the reasons she is funny is because
all of bethany's like bitchiness and uh narcissism and like obsession with wealth even at the cost of
her family or all the stuff that makes her awful is also the stuff that
makes her great and i love that she doesn't back down from it she doesn't give a fuck like she does
whatever she wants yeah and she is owning being a bitch heather okay you need to own the fact that
you're a stick up your ass yeah tight ass whiny what needs to be a mom to everybody because you
can't control every little thing in your life so why don't you just own that you'll be a mom to everybody because you can't control every little thing in your life. So why don't you just own that?
You'll be a lot happier
if you're not trying to change
everybody else all the time.
They're accepting you.
They're openly mocking you.
That's what they do.
That's how they love.
Yeah, exactly.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the room,
it was like round 34 of New York Postgate
and Sonia was once again yelling at Kristen.
And Sonia's like,
I'm a much bigger brand than a toaster oven.
I'm an international brand. And she's like, I just hate it with the toaster oven. And then he's like, I'm a much bigger brand than a toaster oven. I'm an international brand.
And she's like,
I just hate it
with the toaster oven.
And then Ramona comes
and goes,
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but I want to make a toast.
I was like, Ramona,
don't mention toast.
I know.
And then she said toast
plenty of times.
She's like,
no, I'm talking about
my toast to Ramona.
She's like, toast, toast, toast.
Are we going to make a toast?
Toast, toast.
Oh, I need some toast.
I wish I could get this toast to work. I wish I could get it to work. I wish somebody would release this toast finally.
Oh my god, my toast is so – I don't even know what I want to say. I wish it was just fully finished. I wish it was some sort of oven where I could put my toast into it. It would come out and be done and I could say my toast.
I've just got this inappropriate box now with my toast in it
and I need somebody to take it out
or it's just going to die on the shelf
and then everyone's going to make fun of me in the New York Post
so please let's have
a toast
but that did not stop Toastergate
because then Sonia continued
to go at it with Kristen and then Kristen
at one point goes are we really arguing
about the damn toaster oven
and then Sonia's like oh so now you think it's a damn toaster oven?
Are you that brain dead?
And Kristen was like, who's really brain dead here?
You're the one who came out with the toaster oven to begin with.
I was like, score one for Kristen.
I mean, I honestly, like, poor Kristen.
I mean, she should have just stopped trying to fight.
I mean, Sonia was so ludicrous
she was and the editors were
hysterical in putting that clip in
where they showed the interview
you saw that you caught that right
did you already bring that up
you were talking about reading the actual article
I couldn't remember if you said that
you see the interview and it was
it was asked in a benign way
and she responded in a totally
lovely way
and I don't even think to be honest
I don't know, I didn't read the article
but apparently they made it look like
she was slamming Sonia
and it was just
there must have been such a frustrating
fight for Kristen
I just love when Sonia's like oh now it's a damn
damn toaster oven so now Sonia's a damn, damn toaster oven. So now Sonya has both
pride in her toaster oven
and also she's annoyed that it keeps coming up.
Well, Sonya's a typical
pussy.
Like, she's
she only will go after the weak one.
She's like, who's going to stick up for Kristen, really?
I can just sit here and yell at Kristen
and get my finale airtime
and, you know, get a spot
next year because Lord knows I need the job
because I ain't working.
So, gotta do what I gotta do.
And she goes to work and that's the only thing she has to fight about.
I mean, it's either that or her
alcoholism and she's trying not to be wasted anymore.
So, it's like, what do you do? You know, the girl's
just trying to save her job, but
at the same time, it's like she's going
after the weakest one in the cast
like the woman's not even in the box sonia she's not even in the box it's like you're lobbing spit
wads over the walls of the box stunning not cool not cool poor poor poor kristen got girl code
no girl code so finally ramona does she finally gets her toes together sort of there is literally
like 10 minutes of her bank okay everyone i want, I want to make a toast. And people
interrupt her and say, no, no, come on, come on now.
I'm going to make a toast. Okay.
Toast time. Okay. Where's
Avery? Toast time. Toast? Mario?
Hey, away.
Hey, everybody.
I want to make my toast before
it goes bankrupt, like other toasters here.
So let's just get this done
now, okay? Yeah. And then they, you know, it goes bankrupt like other toasts it's here so let's just get this done now okay yeah and then
they uh then that you know it's the season finale so they were showing you know they do that update
thing where they freeze the screen and at first i had a conspiracy theory going because heather did
not get a chance to wax philosophically about the season and neither did christian and i was like oh
they're done but then sony didn't either so oh no yeah that's true they didn't well so my
they didn't show them talking they did show their like little endings or whatever and they were
you could really tell that they hate heather i mean dorinda's was like dorinda is finding a life
of happiness now that she's past her grieving but don't expect her to get ugly you know like
they were all really nice and supportive of the ladies and then it got to heather's and it was like
heather still has a business and then it moved on to every i was like what the hell man you give
heather like zero love it's like heather still works at a stolen company every day yeah okay
i am gonna miss i am gonna miss heather on the show because as much as she can annoy me
I am going to miss Heather on this show because as much as she can annoy me, she does really mix things up.
And she does speak her mind.
She is never afraid to speak her mind.
And often she's such a bitch about it, sometimes in a really good way and sometimes in a really bad way.
But she always actually makes for good TV.
So I am a little sad to see her go.
And I also think that she's important on this show, believe it or not.
Believe it or not, I'm saying that. But I think she's kind of important on this kind of show
because as ridiculous as she can
be, she's actually a real person.
Like, she's not some...
I mean, with her hollas, even the
holla and all of that makes her more real
to me because she's just trying so hard to be
liked. Like, she just wants to be liked.
And she's a mom. And she's
like a judgmental mom and she can't
help it you know yeah i think that a lot of us are like that i actually think you know we we i mean
we trash her so much heather if you're listening guess what here's your moment of glory it's not
because we try we trash her a lot but i actually think that she's she seems like a very bright
person i think she is she can be annoying um and she could be needy and she can be misguided and she is insecure
she does want to be liked and all that stuff
but I do think that she's bright and I think
she does bring something good to the table
so I am going to miss her
yeah bye Heather love ya
oh I can't wait to see the shit that happens at this
reunion because you know it's going to go down
I'm sad honestly I'm sad about
this Carol Luan situation because
it's so stupid
that their friendship is basically has basically fallen apart over this stuff it's luann you got
to get it together girl you gotta like get some perspective on this yeah listen real girl code
you know what real girl code is not cock blocking your friend when she's getting a 29 piece of 29
year old piece of ass okay that's right. That is what girl code is.
I don't know where the fuck you heard of girl code
with your fake countess ass,
your married title that you won't get a divorce
so you can keep your fucking fake title.
Lady, please.
Countesses don't have girl code, darling.
It's a different culture.
You obviously don't understand what it means
because in America,
if you know a woman with toilet lid teeth
who is banging a
fucking 29 year old you throw that bitch a party okay you do not get on her ass about it exactly
niece was too much of a loser to keep her then you should even congratulate your friend even more for
being that much hotter than your niece when she's 40 years older than her and you know the truth is
we remember this niece this niece appear i'm assuming it's the same one.
But from a few seasons ago, Luann, like, went out partying with her niece.
It's like, okay, why is it okay for you to go out, like, and, like, hang out and try to be, like, cool with her niece and her niece's crowd?
And yet Carol can't socialize in a different sort of way with her niece's crowd.
But the point is this.
Carol found a man who is hot and wants to cook for her and cook good food i agree she needs to be
applauded and she needs to lock it down also carol does not need to rely on this man for his money
luann can go have fun and fuck whoever she wants for fun but she can only marry somebody who's
gonna a give her another title and b i mean girl had to move into a smaller house this year you
think that that was just because she wanted a smaller house?
No.
No.
She could not afford it.
So Luann is, like, looking for a job.
And Carol is getting ass.
You know, stop your jealousy, Luann.
It's so ugly on you, darling.
Darling, you know.
Not cute.
Yeah.
No.
No.
We love you, Luann, but you are wrong.
Wrong.
You're wrong on this one. Big time, lady. Big love you, Luanne, but you were wrong. Wrong. You were wrong on this one.
Big time, lady.
Big time.
All right, so why don't we go on to Flipping Out.
I am flipping out.
I'm flipping out.
I don't have a lot to say about this show because it is a bitch.
No, no.
I actually like the show, but I really feel like when I'm watching this show, I'm just watching someone work, which you are.
But I'm watching him yell at people at work all day i'm like oh but it is refreshing to watch this show
uh because you know he's he's a very bright sharp guy and i feel like actually a lot of a lot of the
things in this show that come up in terms of management or dealing with people are very
relatable and a lot of times when he's complaining about something, it's like, Oh, I get that. I get that.
Jeff Lewis.
I understand.
And I also thought this episode was good.
This is because he was slowly losing his shit over the course of the
episode.
And between gauge and his passive aggressive ways and this plumbing
situation,
I found myself oddly on the edge of my seat being like,
what's going to happen with these pipes.
And what's he going to say to gauge?
Oh my God.
Ben.
I know. Is my life sad? Is this what my
life is?
No, go ahead. I'm sorry.
No, I was going to say, this is what my life is. I
am in suspense over
plumbing for someone who's
not in my life and
I play board games all day.
Welcome to almost middle age darling
yeah i know how it rolls from now on we're going to be talking about pipes and shit for the rest
our new podcast is going to be pipes and shit ragging on pipes ragging on pipes which was also
sonia's first podcast can you believe she doesn't use copper? Who does that? She put a blackberry down her toilet.
I'm enjoying the relationship between Gage and Jeff only because it just looks painful.
But I'm enjoying the relationship between Gage and Zoila even more.
Yeah.
Now that's a relationship.
Listen, you can fuck with the children.
You can fuck with the animals. Do not fuck with the children you can fuck with the animals
do not fuck with the best maid okay it's hard to find good help especially one that's hilarious
and like carry you know helps carry a tv show like she's really good gage needs to know his
place and it is behind the maid sorry that's right that's just the truth i also love the way when
there were fights um how like the the non-je non-Jeff Lewis characters always chime in to clarify things.
So in this episode, Jeff wanted couches in a certain way in a room, and Gage was like, no, it's not.
And Jeff's like, I just fucking want the couches like this, and that's just what I want.
And so he started ragging on Gage and saying, well, I want them here because I want people here.
And we live back in West Hollywood now, and if you don't like it, well, I want them here because I want people here. And we live back in West Hollywood now.
And if you don't like it, well, then who the hell cares?
I'm going to bring in a whole bunch of hot guys.
They're going to line up right here.
And I'm going to choose my favorite one.
And Gage was like, I can't believe you said that about me or say that to me.
So then later on in the kitchen, they, you know, Gage was just so mad.
And so Jeff was, you know, he he was like he basically was apologizing for
being so mean but i love how jeff is like i jeff jeff jeff was like this is just how i felt and
then jenny and that other girl like yeah you know gage i think what jeff jeff was just feeling
frustrated and gage is like i just can never believe anyone saying those things to me and
then the girls turned to jeff he's like yeah i mean our feelings would be hurt too if you said
that to me and then Jeff was like
oh I didn't say it and then they're like well
Jeff doesn't remember you know
sometimes you just don't remember things when you get mad
yeah but that one girl was
calling him out she's like he's like I didn't
say I would line them up I love how the fight
it's they're already so married it's so funny
the fights are already so stupid
he's like yeah Jeff but you said
that you were
gonna have all these guys over here and they were gonna line up and i mean i would just never treat
you with that kind of disrespect and just like oh i didn't say they were gonna be lining up okay
they wouldn't be lining up but they i mean i would have some but they would be lining up and he's
like you said lining up i did not say lining up and then one of them's like um actually yeah you
said that they would be lining up and he's's like, well, I mean, come on.
You really think they're going to be lining up?
Come on.
It's like the fight is so stupid.
But Jeff does get so awfully mean.
And he hides it all behind his humor.
It's like always, you know, I mean, I guess we have that in common.
But his meanness is always like humor.
So he's always got that excuse but it's not
because when he really gets upset he lashes out in a way that he's not supposed to get attacked by
and gage isn't funny so he can't fight by like that he can't fight fight back like that yeah and
i just it makes me feel bad for him you know it's like he doesn't even get it so i don't even think
he knows if he's joking and it's like if you like, if you really think he's always being serious to you like this, why are you with him?
I mean, get some self-respect.
Well, by the way, the editors messed up in that scene because Joe, who was fired last week, was totally in one of the shots during that scene.
So this is clearly out of order.
So please, Bravo, when you're showing us jeff lewis
fights and apologies please try to stick to the timeline thank you very much well maybe joe just
forgot he was fired yeah or that too he's like i'm here with you he's like i'm here with your chin
chin i found the lunch receipts next week is our next week is already the season finale um and
zoya looks like she's crying
I'm trying to think what else happened this week
she gets in a fight with Gage next week
I love it she's like and you can shut up
you stupid bitch
what how dare you
no how dare you stupid bitch
I love her
you are
bitch and Jess is like oh no wait
let me explain to you what she's trying to say. Because I
understand how to talk, Zoila. Basically
she's saying, you're a stupid faggot
and she wants you to die. So is that right, Zoila?
She's like, yeah, stupid beach.
I love that relationship.
I know, it is fantastic.
Let's see, this week also
the Brian Austin Green's house got
flooded. So that was a big to-do.
There was issues that with
the with the pipes um sometimes i wish i could hear what was on the other end of jeff lewis's
phone calls like when he was speaking to the person about getting the pipes done i'm amazed
how calm he was you know when he was like uh i'm based you have to pay ten thousand dollars to fix
these pipes i thought for sure he was gonna freak out. Well, this is like the kinder,
gentler version of him.
He's really, I guess,
grown or at least learned some
manners. You always feel like he's about
to lose it at any second.
Well, he used to every episode. He used to
just go ape shit every time.
And now he's learning.
It's cute. Yeah.
Good for you, Jeff. But, you know, older age learning. It's cute. Yeah. Good for you, Jeff.
But, you know, this older age, too, it just gets tiring yelling all the time.
You know, eventually you're going to need someone to wipe your ass.
You've got to start being nicer as you get older.
Yes, you certainly do.
Ain't that the truth, man?
That is the truth.
I mean, I don't know what else to say about this episode.
I don't know what else.
Yeah, that's the thing with flipping out.
It's like, what are you going to talk about?
Vanina's desk might get taken away because they have to fix the shit pipes under it
wow no no vanina vanina darling but the good news is we've got a ton of shows coming up lots of
stupidity coming so next week let's see it was working out i want to call it working out too
but it's working out new york i'm gonna go on the Bravo page. I think a bunch starts next week, I think.
So let's see.
Let's see what we have.
I'm going on to Bravo.
Let's check it out.
Let's see what's coming up.
What's new?
Hey, Bravo, how about you post the shows that are coming up?
How about you post some new shows and not just fucking commercials that crash my computer?
Trying to go on your site because it's overloaded with crap?
You know, isn't it bad enough that we're going there to look at something that's an advertisement for your network?
Why do I have to sit through a Tide commercial while I'm about to watch another preview?
That's the dumbest thing. I have to sit through a 30-minute Tide commercial to watch a 45-second preview of your stupid show that probably costs less than a gallon of Tide commercial to watch a 45 second preview of your stupid show that probably costs less than
a gallon of Tide. Stupid.
And I have a question. If you go on the Bravo
website and you see all shows,
they work out in New York. I don't see it anywhere.
I see MyFab40th. I don't even see
I don't see the other.
So either way, let's see what we have coming back.
So Below Deck is coming back
I believe next week.
Oh no, I'm sorry.
Season premiere is the 25th.
Oh, that's the night of our live show, Ben.
It is.
Are we still doing our live show?
We better double check that.
I think so.
I guess we should check in or we should stop talking about it, one of the two.
I know.
Well, yeah, I'll email Stephanie.
Stephanie Wilder-Taylor.
Workout New York Bravo.
I'm going to see when does this show start.
August 18th.
Oh, Ronnie, guess what?
So next week on our Thursday show,
we'll talk about Real Housewives of New York City reunion,
and I think we should talk about Workout New York.
Let's do it, Ben.
The premiere, because they've got hot people on here.
I love hot, stupid people
who don't understand how stupid they are.
I love it.
That's why I will never leave West Hollywood.
I think they're the most entertaining things.
Listening to people walk around,
talking on their cell phones,
acting smart,
and their conversations are just fucking ridiculous.
I passed this guy yesterday when I was walking Bueller,
and he's like, yeah, and I told her.
I know, right?
Seriously.
That's your conversation?
I guess.
And he looks so intense walking down the street.
Oh, God.
Come on, man.
So our Thursday episodes are going to be,
starting next week, it'll be New York City,, New York, and then Below Deck will come around.
So we'll probably have a little overlap in New York there.
So we'll do those three on Thursdays, and then it'll be Below Deck and Workout New York, right?
And then our Tuesday episodes will continue to be Married to Medicine and Real Housewives of Orange County.
Do we have to cover Trotty for the Party
and Growing Up Manzo or whatever?
We usually don't.
I mean, those are usually like desperation shows, right?
We'll do that once.
If OC and Married to Medicine,
if one of them ends their season,
then we'll pick up one of those shows
to fill in until something better comes along.
But I think we will have – we're going to have OC and –
well, Ladies of London will be coming up soon,
so that will take over probably for OC on our Tuesday show.
I don't know. What's the next Real Housewives?
Why isn't there anything cute about that?
I don't know, but I think Beverly Hills will probably be next
because they're the ones that are in the press right now shooting.
So they'll probably be late September.
They usually start in the fall so um it looks like we'll probably have a patch there of non-real housewives programming but we hope everyone continues to listen because
we'll have the ladies of london which will be fun oh yeah that's that might as well be housewives
oh my god i can't wait for beverly hills to come back that show does not learn its lesson they get
rid of brandy they get rid of kim and, they get rid of Kim, and then they get
some new Brandy who's like some
trashy, like, you know she's gonna be
trash, this new Brandy. And then they
also got Taylor back who's just
Kim. It's like
it's like more of a train wreck
of Kim without a booth at the plaza
every Sunday with her mom.
It's a disaster. It's like
they're just replacing the old people
with new old people,
if that makes any sense.
I know.
Well, I'm sure there'll also be
plenty more of Camille.
Somebody else's.
Yeah, the same day that we hear
about our friend's split.
So upsetting.
I know.
Never gets old.
All right. Well, that was a fun one, Ben.
It was fun, so everyone, thanks for listening.
