From Wondery and Audible comes Class of 88, a new podcast hosted by Will Smith.
Before 1988, a lot of people didn't take hip-hop seriously.
But hip-hop today touches everything from film to fashion to sports.
So what changed? Follow Class of 88 wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey everyone, welcome to Watch What Crappens, the weekly podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we love. I'm Ben Mandelker from bsideblog.com. Joining me, as always, Matt
Whitfield from Yahoo. Hi, Matt.
Hey, Ben. Don't get a sunburn up there.
I'll try not to. Can you hear the sound of heavy machinery driving by?
And also, Ronnie Karam from TrashTalkTV.com.
Hi, Ronnie.
Hello. What's up, everybody?
Ben, Ben, Ben, are you spying on MJ?
Are you on Slider Patrol?
I'm looking. I actually probably could see her balcony from here.
She's nowhere to be seen.
He's just doing that to show off his bicep, people.
You all know what I'm talking about.
Which is a good thing that you mention that, because we are broadcasting this over the air on a Google Hangout.
It'll be posted on YouTube, on our YouTube channel, youtube.com forward slash the TV click.
It will be there later on.
It's not there right now.
If you want to watch it live, you've come to our facebook page the link is there otherwise you
can listen to us on itunes or soundcloud or any of those fine varieties but if you listen to us
you miss half the fun you don't get to see you don't get to see my arm you don't get to see
matt's lovely bumblebee sweater and you don't know this is nautical not this is not black and
yellow this is blue and white on my on screen, it looks like black and yellow.
You look like a bumblebee.
I am stinging.
Okay, now, so wait.
We've been on for two minutes, and you're already going to start abusing me?
This is an honor of Below Deck.
It's very nautical.
It is.
Well, you look like a bumblebee to us, which is fine.
It's adorable.
And Ronnie has a guitar behind him.
Anyway, this is our long way of saying you should watch us on YouTube.
Matt is at Life on the M-List
on various social media platforms.
I'm at B-Side Blog and Ronnie's at Trash Talk
Trash Tweet TV
or sometimes Trash Talk TV. Depends on what
platform you're on. Why don't you try them both? You'll see what comes up.
Anyway,
gosh, we have a lot of Bravo things to talk about this week,
don't we? We certainly
do. Sorry for those of you who are tuning in, by the way,
for our technical difficulties at the beginning of the episode,
but thank you for joining us.
I would like to start out by talking about all these casting rumors
because so many of them have been flying around.
I want to get your guys' opinions.
I would like to start with Orange County.
I know we talked about this a little bit last week
but gretchen and alexis really seem to be done so thank god thank god yeah i think that that show
needs a little shake up anyway however i'm gonna really miss gretchen alexis i was sad last year
when we heard she got fired she wasn't gonna come back i was really sad because alexis has the best
dumb bitch scenes of any housewife that's ever been on.
There's a lot of dumb housewives, but Alexis takes the cake.
You have to admit, you're going to so miss her acting classes.
I mean, that was pure TV gold.
I am.
You know, if anyone deserved a spinoff, it was Alexis.
I am going to miss her trying to act.
If anyone deserved it, can you guys hear me at all?
Or am I just speaking into the void here?
We can hear you.
Okay.
We can hear you, but it's weird because you're outside, I think.
Oh, really? Is there a delay for me?
There's a delay.
I guess there is.
How about I move inside where the audio will be better?
Continue talking as I move my operations inside.
Everyone can enjoy what they want.
This has disaster written all over it.
It does, doesn't it?
All right.
Keep talking about Gretchen and Alexis.
Okay, so, Ronnie, then...
Well, I think the Gretchen and Alexis thing, I think, is kind of depressing.
But I'm super happy that they're going to be getting some new bitches in there.
And I hope it's someone that really has been watching the show for a long time and wants to take down tamra and heather at all
turns like every turn i want whatever new girls come on to just try and tear down tamra and heather
i think they need that i am so happy to hear that you are finally on board with um team i hate
heather i am the fan club president of that. Nothing makes my heart happier. But the other thing, which I think will rile you up, which I'm excited to do, is that as soon as these rumors started to come about last week with Gretchen and Alexis being fired,
none other than our favorite former housewife, Jill Zarin, had to start weighing in and blabbing all about, you know,
and blabbing all about, you know, making up these,
or finding ways to get herself published in magazines to discuss, like,
how you really, like, the five reasons why you know you're not being invited back for the next season.
And what were they? Do you remember any of them?
Because I couldn't, I clicked on that article and I could barely even concentrate because Jill Zarin just, everything starts clouding up.
Flames.
I feel flames. Flames. I feel flames.
Flames on the side of my face. You better be careful right now because nobody should ever equate Madeline Kahn's award-worthy performance in Clue as Mrs. White with the horrible, horrible Jill Zarin.
R.I.P. Madeline Kahn.
Oh, no, no, honey.
I'm being Madeline.
I'm pouring one out for Madeline Kahn.
Into my mouth.
I'm being Madeline Kahn. Madeline K I'm pouring one out for Madeline Khan. Into my mouth. I'm being Madeline Khan. Madeline
Khan hated men. And I'm
equating Jill Zarin with all the terrible
men in Madeline Khan's life that she ended up
murdering. Spoiler alert if you didn't see Clue in the 90s.
It was a lot better than the reviews gave it
credit for. Alright. Go watch it.
It came out in 1985, but we're
not going to do film history right now.
Oh my god, really? I was so
young. My favorite movie ever
so much hair in 1985 so one of the things that jules aaron said she was like well one of the
ways that you'll know that you're not being invited back for the next season is producers
won't call you to ask hey girl what are you up to for the next six months no shit bitch
like i think that she's having to explain this to a why it's not happening, and that's why she had to make it so simple.
But no shit.
Here's a great way to find out.
What were some of the other ones? Do you remember?
I'm busy staring at Ben's chest in that tight white t-shirt.
Yeah.
Sure I am.
Can you guys hear me at all or no?
You're fine, buddy. You're fine.
I probably didn't even have to come inside.
You probably didn't.
Okay, but let's move on.
I want to talk about other casting drama because right now we're in the middle of craziness,
and we're going to get to the full-on craziness with The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
But rumors have been circulating this week that Kathy McKeeley is now going to be bumped back to
Friend of the Housewives, that Jacqueline has been fired, that they are bringing back Dina Manzo
full-time while Caroline goes off and tries to have her spin-off, and we'll see if that's a
success or not. If it isn't, she'll probably come back just the way like NeNe ran back to Housewives
once her NBC sitcom was canceled but what is
going on with jersey i have hated this entire season the only thing that can save it in my
opinion is the return of danielle saab with a butcher knife yeah i think that the show is just
new jersey really i mean
it's stagnated and you know they had such a great chance to make it entertaining this past weekend
we know all the shit that went down at that party we know that there were uh charges filed against
jacqueline and her husband and the albie boys for for being terrorists or something like that right
or it wasn't the albie boys this time i think it was just chris jacqueline and joe maybe who was it
anyway there were like terroristic charges filed against them because they were, like, throwing sinks.
And there was supposedly blood all over the place.
So I don't know what happened to all of that.
But that was some lameness.
Yeah, I actually, what was surprising to me was that Caroline's segment on the show, and I guess we'll get to it, felt very much like a goodbye segment.
It was like, this is Caroline's final hurrah.
She's looking around her house.
We're remembering all the things
from the past few years with Caroline.
So it felt very much like a send-off for her.
It'd be interesting if they brought back Dina,
and I would love to see Danielle come back.
They do definitely have to clean house.
The entire show has completely stagnated.
It was two years ago.
It was riveting, but
it has not evolved. This shocks me
because the two of you were some of Kathy
Wakili's biggest supporters. I love
Kathy. I wasn't. I've always thought
that bitch was boring.
The best thing she ever did on that show
was her first scene when she was riding a bike
like Murder, She Wrote.
Yeah. That was the best part
because I really liked Cabot Cove and Murder, She Wrote.
She is the Jessica Fletcher of Franklin Heights.
Yeah.
But she never solved shit.
She only solved cannoli mysteries.
She did solve a mystery.
She found out that her husband's a dick.
She solves mysteries pertaining to cannolis and gas stations.
She found out that her sister was a lesbian. Yeah, so she solved that one too.
I don't think that was much of a mystery. So what else? What other gossip?
I'm not done talking about that. I want to know what you guys think about Dina coming back because, you know bravo and a lot of people are saying
that theresa is in desperate need of an ally that she hasn't had for such quite you know for quite
some time and i think bringing dina back's a great idea my question is will dina start throwing
daggers at melissa because i you saw that they started to paint the picture as melissa is the
villain now we're going to turn the tables and i think by bringing in dina they're going to make
theresa come back you know rise to the top and they're going to go the tables. And I think by bringing in Dina, they're going to make Teresa come back, rise to the top,
and they're going to go daggers straight at Melissa and Joe.
But you know what, though?
This presupposes that we're going back into the same old fights.
What appeared to be resolved at the end of this season, all of a sudden, for Teresa to need an ally,
that means that we're going right back into the same old shit theresa versus melissa versus joe gorga and and quite frankly we're we're done with
that we've seen that now for three separate seasons and with declining returns so if theresa
needs an ally then that's a bad sign for the storylines to come i did not watch season one
because back then i was a smart person who liked
to actually be creative and like have friends in the real world and not just sit at home and eat
all the time and i had a real life so i don't really know much about dina all i know about her
is what i saw on her terrible hgtv show where she would like design parties for people and she was
really fucking obnoxious and then i saw her on that chris march show where he was making clothes on bravo for a little while and he made her a dress out of asphalt
and she was really nasty about it and it's like bitch you just wanted to be on tv wear that asphalt
and shut up i don't want to hear you complain so i don't know how much i care about her how did he
make a dress out of asphalt he's gay and he wasn't technically asphalt but it was like it was this
really thick black rock material.
It was like real gritty and it looked like asphalt.
And she's like, this is so uncomfortable because, you know, she's walking around and she's like, you know, it was like gravel.
She was wearing asphalt, basically.
So I don't know.
I think she's a big complainer.
I don't like her.
But that's only from what HGTV showed me.
It was reminiscent of sandpaper.
If you come off bad on HGTV, then there's no way you can ever come off good on Bravo.
Because, you know, HGTV...
Whatever, Genevieve Gorder has a career.
That's true, too.
Are we starting to throw shade at Genevieve Gorder?
Oh, she's terrible.
You know, that's what I don't understand about HGTV and the Food Network, frankly.
Aren't there better people?
I mean, Giada makes a fucking grilled piece of salmon with some honey on it.
Bitch, really?
You got a cooking show and you're making a grilled piece of salmon?
Okay.
And then all she does is say, mm, good, mm.
They don't have people who can cook on these shows?
Well, it's not like she actually eats cheese.
I'm like HGTV, Genevieve Gorder.
Genevieve is not the one to start going after.
If you're going to go after anybody, go after Vern Yip.
Yeah.
Oh, he's there, too.
He's in there, too.
He's in the mix, too.
If you gave me more time on those, I'd go through them all.
The only one I like is Candace, and she's Canadian.
Hate her.
I actually don't know who Candace is.
Where's Genevieve?
Queen of HGTV with all of her shabby, chic trash.
Where's Genevieve?
Tweet-a, bop-bop, tweet-a. I hate that theme song. That theme song makes me want to kill people. her shabby chic trash. Isn't, isn't, we're in Genevieve and we're in, uh...
I hate that
theme song. That theme song makes me want to kill people.
Be that
a sweet idea.
Anyway, um, so...
The Real Housewives of New Jersey is
kind of doomed. The problem is
the ratings are so high, so Bravo has
a serious problem on their hands. I would
just like to put this out there for everybody listening and
watching to us right now on Watch What Crappens.
You guys need to not support
the Manzo family spinoff.
I'm telling you right now, do not support that show.
Do not give it ratings. Force
that big old bulldog
back on the Real Housewives of New Jersey.
If we have to put up with her, she should be
putting up with Teresa's bullshit.
She should not be able to run off and have her own
fun spin-off with her family, because I don't want to see them
play Throw the Ham.
Or the Egg Salad.
Throw the Ham.
I can't see that show doing very well.
I think that it's hard enough
to watch them on TV with the
segments that they have.
But maybe it will. Who knows? I don't know. I would kind of like to watch it because I want
to watch all their businesses fail miserably. There's a certain good feeling I get watching
that. And I don't know why, because they don't seem like mean people. They all seem fairly nice,
except for Lauren. And it's only because she can't eat anymore. But the rest of them seem
like very nice people. I don't know what it is.
But when they were showing that clip of Albie telling Caroline he got kicked out of law school yet again and Caroline was all sobbing, I was just giggling like a little bit.
So it was the best part for me of the whole show.
You do bring up a very good point.
It would be fun to watch their businesses fail.
But more importantly, how much fun would it be to watch their marriage truly fail and for Albert to just straight up cheat on Caroline and walk out on her?
That would be heaven to me.
I actually don't feel like that would be so nice to watch.
I feel like I would rather just watch the continued failings of their children as they do one poor entrepreneurial idea after another.
So they started with – let's see.
So Lauren started a cafe where you can get your makeup done and eat egg salad at the same time. Okay. Not a great idea.
Then the kids started, they're like, oh, you know what we're going to do? We are going to sell
water that is the most unnatural color of all. In fact, it looks like the color of pollution.
We're going to sell that. And watching them serve that to Nicholas, inappropriate.
Inappropriate.
And they're like, okay, for a third venture, let's go into an industry which has the highest failure rate of all.
Let's start a restaurant.
Are they going to build a spaceship next?
Is that their next plan here?
They're going to call up Lance Bass and they're going to build a spaceship.
Yeah, but not a good spaceship.
It's going to be like a spaceship that runs off like horse poop and never gets off the ground.
Yeah, I'd like to see them reenact gravity.
I'm just imagining Loren Manzo spinning around like Sandra Bullock in space debris.
And be like, oh, egg salad flying in zero gravity.
What happens when you put like a lap band into zero gravity?
I feel like that would not be good on the lap band.
I feel like there would be some expansion.
It would be good, actually, because all you get is that space ice cream.
I mean, how filling can that be?
Can you throw ham in outer space?
That's the real question.
By the way, that is now officially the title of this podcast. Can you throw ham in outer space? That's the real question. By the way, that is now officially the title of this podcast.
Can you throw ham in outer space?
That's it.
Can I change the name of the hangout, or is it too late?
Too late.
So something else that has been really fun this week regarding Real Housewives of New Jersey is Melissa Gorga's book tour.
Let's discuss this.
Housewives of New Jersey is Melissa Gorga's book tour. Let's discuss
this. Melissa
and Joe have been all over
the place talking about their book. Well,
Jezebel did a fantastic article
just ripping this idiot
apart about all the
parts in her book that sound like marital
rape. Like when she talks
about how you just gotta give it up to
your husband. Or when she lets Joe interject
and say, you know what, guys guys when your wife says no she really means yes spin her around and rip her
clothes off yeah that's called raping your wife yeah uh that sounds like uh this sounds like the
book that tyler perry consulted before he wrote tyler perry's temptation because everything in
tyler perry's temptation was super rapey. Just putting it out there. Yeah, except at the end of Melissa's book, Everybody Dies of AIDS.
Thank you, by Tyler Perry.
Yeah, exactly.
Spoiler alert.
Spoiler alert.
At the end of Melissa's book, she winds up with a limp, addicted to coke and drugs, and with HIV.
And she has a really jagged, lesbian-like haircut from Janet Jackson.
Yeah.
That's pretty much what it is.
So anyway.
She's been all over the place giving interviews,
just making it worse and worse and worse.
And so by the time the finale wrapped up
and we got to hear one last time Melissa's,
what did she say?
Hot wife, loyal wife, whatever.
Take a page from my book.
And it turns out her book was the biggest piece of crap.
And one of the funniest lines in the
Jezebel thing was it said, well, we'll give
her credit for this. It looks like she actually
did write it because it's so fucking stupid.
I love
those girls that work at Jezebel. They are
geniuses. If you guys don't know
their site, you need to go check it out because anybody
that hates on Melissa Gorga is a friend of ours.
That's right.
Melissa Gorga is a horrible,
horrible girl. Should we just get into this
week's episode? We're sort of bouncing around it.
No, we need to say one other thing.
What do you mean, Manny? I was
invited to go to
the season premiere parties
for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and
Vanderpump Rules. They're doing a combo party.
I believe it's at
Bungalow on Sunset
in a few weeks, so
I may be asking you guys
if we want to go to that.
I would love to go. Yes, you better invite me.
If I see pictures of you
with some twink again, I'm going to kick your ass.
That is not my type and you know that so maybe uh maybe we'll get to see stassi and shana and jacks have you
guys seen the previews i mean i thought that they were gonna clean house there too and get rid of
the ponies and stassi or and uh shana um and just really keep uh stassassi and Jax to focus on.
But the whole crowd is back.
Oh, good.
They might change it up a little.
Because there was a poster where it looked like there were a bunch of new people on there.
There's some newbies.
But in the title card that is airing on Bravo right now, all the usual suspects are back, including Jiggy.
I think what's funny is that in one of the promo pictures um this guy there's
like an older guy in the cast who's like the manager of the restaurant his name's like gino
or something like that so you know he's probably you know and like the cast is basically like lisa
and like a few of her friends who are older and wiser and are just dealing with the shit that
they have to and then the younger people who just keep on taking up their shirts but there was a
photo shoot where it's like all the guys have their shirt off and then like gino has his shirt
off too and admittedly he looks great you know but i was kind of like
oh this poor guy like so sad that they're making him take off his shirt like you have to like fight
it with the youngins like he shouldn't have to do that it's like making ken take off his shirt
it's just not right it's not right even if you do have a good body like at a certain age
they shouldn't be forcing you to take your shirt off if it's part of your contract then you should
have to do it.
Speaking of shirtlessness, did you see Andy Cohen's latest shirtless pic on Instagram today?
I can't avoid Andy Cohen on Instagram as much as I want to talk shit, and I do talk shit about him.
I cannot unfollow.
Well, and you cannot unsee either.
If you haven't seen it, everyone, go to Andy Cohen's Instagram, whatever it's called, probably Andy Cohen, and check out him.
I think he's like in a Speedo or something and like hair from the 80s.
It's worth seeing.
Really?
Well, he's got a really good body, right?
I saw a picture of him like last year, and I was like, whoa, he's built under there.
I'm always shocked when you see somebody like, and you look at them and they're like built.
And good for him.
Most nerds just stay home reading things.
Are you really surprised that he is
an egotistical gay man?
No.
Do you remember when that website connection was around?
No.
It was like a gay social networking website.
Andy Cohen used to be on that.
And he'd have pictures of him at Fire Island
or the Hamptons. You are kidding to be on that. And he'd have these pictures of him at Fire Island or the Hamptons.
You are kidding me. You are kidding.
Absolutely not. He was totally on
Connection.
Why not? If I looked like that,
I'd come on this podcast shirtless.
Yeah. I'd be naked all the time.
Yeah. I'm surprised he hasn't
gotten... You're only middle-aged
once, guys.
Yeah.
Now he will get the time.
So we just briefly mentioned
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Have you guys seen the previews for those
with the two new cast additions?
I think that they look insane.
I feel some trepidation.
Me too, because don't you think
that they're trashing up Beverly Hills?
Yes, I was just going to say that.
It's like...
Go ahead.
No, I was going to say, but of course the joke is that beverly hills is not trashed at all and it's completely as trash as everywhere else just more
money yes exactly it is but there's like a certain it's not as low it's not as low as the other shows
you know there is a certain class about that show generally and it was a humongous change when they brought brandy on because she is total trash like yeah all the
pictures that the press was getting of her were in the walmart you know like literally like she
she was just kind of this trashy girl and still is but then when people responded to that they're
like oh well let's just bring more trashy bitches in but you know let's just make them old i don't
know um that's what beverly hills is full of you know, let's just make them olds. I don't know.
That's what Beverly Hills is full of.
You know, that's really what it is full of.
I think I mentioned this many months ago on this podcast about how I went to – my parents were in town.
So I got to get to like a nice dinner.
And we went to Spago.
And it was around December.
And it was just full of middle-aged, wasted women,
and they're wasted men, men too.
And there were like so many women that they all look like Faye Resnick.
Faye Resnick is the quintessential Beverly Hills lady.
Your skin pulled back, wearing pants that are some shade of silver,
and your hair that's like a helmet with highlights and extensions and glitter everywhere, but not an ounce of class in this woman.
Or as my dad would say,
she has a lot of class,
all of it low.
That's what Beverly Hills is.
It's all pay resonance.
Hashtag.
Yeah.
There's a lot of money,
but there ain't much.
Yeah.
There's a lot of money there,
but there's not a whole lot of class.
I suppose that's true.
Yeah.
Listen,
Adrian Maloof.
I think Adrian Maloof is,
is,
is a good example of that
the only place anyone can stand to look at her
is in LA, everywhere else
she'd be laughed out of the room
she has a new younger beau
by the way, I saw her step out of
Chateau Marmont the other night with a
another
Sean Stewart lookalike, I think that apparently
is her type,
and she can afford to have as many of them as she would like.
Ugh.
How much could that possibly cost?
Don't you remember what that kid looked like?
God bless his heart.
He looked like a baby Homer Simpson.
This one is like a cuter Sean Stewart
mixed with a little Madison from Million Dollar List in Los Angeles.
Okay, let's talk about these actual shows, please.
We started late today, and we have a lot to discuss.
A lot happened on Real Housewives of New Jersey, for example.
Yeah, like people cursed, and there was a big fight, and the Bravo cameras stopped rolling, and then they started rolling again, and they stopped and started, and then within a minute, it was over.
They completely cheated viewers like ourselves out of what should have been an epic brawl, and therefore, I hate them.
Yeah, I don't know what was up with that. Maybe for the legal reason they couldn't show exactly what happened,, you can't tell me that they didn't get any of that action.
All we heard was just, like, some – we saw, like, this guy, Johnny the Greek, walk in, looking like he was ready to deliver a pizza and then maybe eat it too.
And then you hear, like, a crash and then the screen kept on going black and, like, coming back and screaming.
And then it was over.
This was, like, a whole season led to this.
And we all remember
anytime there's a big brawl on new jersey you get like a full episode that's the fun part a whole
hour of brawl and this was just five minutes what gives yeah yeah okay this johnny the greek guy okay
so you know we found out in the news that this lawsuit of terroristic charges because of this fight were dropped.
And Penny and her husband dropped these charges for whatever reason.
They came to some kind of a deal behind the scenes.
Or they just got called out for being liars and they have footage to prove it.
I don't know what it was, but the charges were dropped.
Or the whole thing was fake.
Who knows?
But, Johnny, one of the funniest things in this article talking about the charges
being dropped was it said Johnny Curry Cocker is from the Rutz Hut or something. And I looked it up
and it's like some hot dog shack that deep fries hot dogs. That's what that guy does for a living.
Okay. So you've got to hand it to these bottom feeders they actually they've been
trying for what four years now to get on tv and they finally became a major storyline on tv and
they're on twitter spewing their ridiculous misspelled hating texts all over the place and
it's wonderful and it's better now to know that it's from a guy who deep fries a hot dog yeah
don't you feel like these people spend way too much time obsessing over
Twitter? That would be the easiest way
for them to have a more peaceful existence
is to not read about what
Penny or Johnny the Greek says
on Twitter. And that goes for the Miami women too,
by the way.
Well, unfortunately,
Bravo has said that they judge a lot of their
casting decisions
based on social media and internet.
That's just how everything works now.
Even when you're up for a job, in our industry, they'll go look at your Twitter feed and see how many people are following you and shit like that.
It matters.
Look at Jill Zarin.
Look at her.
Oh, my God.
Be sure to say this.
Be sure to say that.
Because she thinks if someone's nice to her on the Internet, she's going to get a show back.
Stupid.
Shut up, Jill Zarin.
Shut up.
Shut up, Jill Zarin.
Oh, one of my favorite Jill Zarin moments of the week was during that same article Matt was talking about earlier where she said,
Oh, yeah, you know, I'm still close with everyone from Bravo.
Andy and I still speak regularly.
Jill, tweeting at Andy on Twitter does not mean you're speaking to him regularly.
Shut up, Jill Zarin. Sit down.
I know you were standing up when you said that.
Shut up and sit down, Jill Zarin. Thanks.
By the way, I really liked how you just gave
Jill Zarin a Midwest Scandinavian accent.
That was a nice touch.
It's fading. Jill Zarin's fading
from my mind. What does her voice
sound like?
Oh, yeah. She's like, fading from my mind. What does her voice sound like? What does her voice sound like?
Oh, yeah.
She's like, hey, everyone.
Thanks so much for watching me on The Real Housewives of New York.
Yeah, she's horrible.
Okay, so Jersey.
The best part of Jersey was Penny saying, yeah, I could show you the Texases.
Oh, yeah.
Teresa followed suit by not being able to pronounce the word either.
Yeah.
The truth, I'm sad there.
That was probably the most entertaining part is listening to him rhyme texts with the word Texas.
That was phenomenal.
You want to see the Texases?
You didn't see the Texases?
Don't mess with Texases.
Well, look, I agree. Don't mess with Texas's. Well, look, I agree.
Don't mess with
Texas's. I agree
with Teresa on this whole thing.
If those people had anything on Teresa,
there would be texts and there would be emails.
And there's not. Just because she
has Teresa's phone number doesn't mean anything.
And just because they talk shit around Teresa
and she doesn't say anything back,
doesn't mean anything either.
We're also forgetting that it is very likely that Melissa was a stripper who did cheat on her husband.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, totally.
I think that's all.
Perhaps even in Texas.
Not to be confused with Texas's that belong on Ponystop.
Yeah, they were literally asking for pictures from Texas.
Yeah, they're like, I want else about this jurors in texas is i love that caroline had to
make it about her on a bull i know didn't you love how caroline had to make it about her and
then she started screaming in front of everybody it's just like caroline stop you were not part of
this her big like red bonnie franklin hair was like shaking like a palm tree in a hurricane she
was just getting so why was she getting so mad and i love how she suddenly has this realization
it suddenly occurred to me that the one at the bottom of it all kim d like congratulations
where have you been for the past four years i probably want to watch your own show for once
you could have right it's out a long time ago and then lauren manzo takes two minutes to pull her
finger out of a vat of egg salad just spin around and point it at Kim D and say, it's all your fault.
Kim D's like, y'all got to get my hair fangs dirty.
She doesn't have her hair fangs dirty.
Yeah, I mean, I agree that if Melissa doesn't want people calling her a stripper, then she should give back all the 20s to the guidos who stuck them in her ass crack for all those years.
Yeah, okay.
That's how to stop amen sister amen to that
yeah if you if you don't want people calling you a strip but keep your coochie in the pants girl
were you guys okay do we have anything more about jersey i wanted rosie to have an eruption i mean
it was kind of you know whenever there's a fight and rosie doesn't scream like she did at that
reunion last year it kind of makes me sad she probably was wasted there's a fight and Rosie doesn't scream like she did at that reunion last year, it kind of makes me sad.
She probably was wasted.
There's no doubt about that.
She's making some moves on a mannequin.
She's also bonded with Joe Gorga.
Yeah.
Her fingers probably smelled like plastic by the time she got back in the car.
Wow.
Well, so the fight was a very small part of the whole thing.
Sorry, there's a weird internet delay
that's kind of fucking with us. I know. I feel like Ronnie, you are on a five second delay of
some sort. Academy is a new scripted podcast that follows Ava Richards, played by HBO's Industries,
Myhala Herald, a brilliant scholarship student who has to quickly adapt to her newfound eat or
be eaten world. Ava's ambitions take hold
and her small-town values break in hopes of becoming the first scholarship student to make
The List, Bishop Gray's all-coveted academic top 10, curated by the headmaster himself.
But after realizing she has no chance at The List on her own, she reluctantly accepts an invitation
to a secret underground society that pulls the strings on campus life
and academic success. If she bends to their will, she'll have everything she's ever dreamed of.
But at what cost? Academy takes you into the world of a cutthroat private school where power,
money, and sex collide in a game of life and death. Follow Academy on the Wondery app or

What do most people think about when they hear the words Black History?
Rosa Parks, Reconstruction, MLK, February, Black History Month.
Exactly, exactly.
There are so many stories of Black History that we just are not really talking about or thinking about, especially outside of February.
And we are about to flip the script on all of that.
Because on this show, you're going to hear a little less.
In August 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
And a little bit more.
She is a heroine to some.
As a fighter for black rights, she is a villain to others.
Follow Black History for Real on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.

See? Look.
Well, you were delayed before, and now it switched to me.
No, I think actually I was never delayed.
You were delayed before, and now it switched to me.
No, no, I think I was never delayed. I think you were delayed all along.
I'm perfect.
Matt's perfect. He's a perfect little bumblebee.
Whatever. Thank you. never delayed i think you were delayed all along i'm perfect matt's perfect he's a perfect little bumblebee whatever um so i'd like to take this moment in the middle of the show to say thank you
to time warner and to google today both of whom have fucked us over so time warner fuck off and
google you can go fuck yourself too and all of you can join jill's erin for a lovely lunch
of a deep fried hot dog
on Shut Up Mountain, you motherfuckers.
I would actually like a deep fried hot dog
so please take that off of Shut Up Mountain.
Ew. Anybody that eats
meat that has been encased by flesh
is disgusting.
Well, first of all, pork is
not allowed by your religion.
Pork is not allowed by your real religion
and deep fried things are not allowed by your gay religion.
So stop. Have you ever heard
Have you ever
heard of a beef, all beef,
natural hot dog? Hebrew National.
Thank you very much. Case closed. And I had a
hot dog just yesterday. Thank you
very much. You know that
bastard is not serving
safe beef hot dogs
so you can eat them. He is serving the cheapest $0.99 store hot dogs he can find.
I know.
If you're wondering where all the dogs on The Real Housewives of New Jersey went,
they're in the hot dogs.
They're in Jimmy Drees.
It's like that scene in Naked Gun when the guy falls in the vat for the hot dog bat,
and then they're at the baseball game and they pull a finger out of the hot dog.
And Joanna Prupa tries to save them all before they become food for Ben.
That's right.
I'll eat them all.
I'll eat them all.
Nicole Yon-Ran is talking about those drinks, the black-flavored water.
What were those flavors?
That was disgusting.
And I love that no one, all the people who were supporting them, they're there to be nice to them.
Like, yeah, even drink them.
Listen, this is like the year 2013.
It's not 1988.
You don't have you don't flavor your water fruit punch.
OK, like this is this is not what you're trying to do.
Right. The makers of Capri Sun got that down pat in the 80s.
Thank you very much. So stop pretending
to be Capri Sun.
You have to know some basic branding. I think these days you've got to
call it something like
Guava Mango Cocktail
or something like that. But you don't call it
Fruit Punch.
You call it a Bloody Piggy.
I would
drink a Bloody Piggy before I drank BLK food punch.
I'm reading all the stuff about the best part of this 90-minute spectacular,
which was the interview of Joe and Teresa on Watch What Happened.
Well, are we already fast-forwarding?
You can just skip past everything.
Is there more?
What else happened?
Caroline cried.
People fought.
There was a whole conversation with Joe and his sister where she squeaked about how she loved him.
And then he cried.
And they both cried together.
And we were left with the illusion of closure and that they were all moving forward for the first time ever, which we know is a lot.
Well, it's like the fifth time ever ever they've had this conversation a million times and why isn't anybody ever calling
joe out on being an obvious alcoholic with rage issues all he does is get drunk and throw shit
how is that okay like why is everyone just okay with that all the time because he's always getting
pushed to that limit but i mean listen if you had a brick wall as your sister i think you two would be throwing things and going resorting to the drink so i give him a pass
well he's disgusting um yeah i don't i don't know we've talked about their stupid issues so many
times i have nothing to say about them then jacqueline every time her son comes in she
starts crying so we saw another one of those yeah that's it right i mean
kathy didn't do shit all rich did the whole time was go yeah what'd you think about that joe
well he had nothing to do that's true i guess nothing really happened which is
the theme of the season and i'll tell you one thing when the watch what happens special started
up i got about three minutes in before I just full-on passed out.
Really? Because I actually enjoyed the chat with Teresa and Joe way more than I enjoyed the season finale.
Well, tell me about it because I'm telling you I really totally passed out.
It was amazing.
I mean, it was amazing.
First, go ahead, Matty.
I was just going to say I'm convinced that they are paying them a
fortune because that is not part of theresa's contract and um the ratings for it were great
um as ratings for new jersey typically are but the ratings for this were awesome and i mean do
you i mean ronnie don't you think that they're paying them a fortune to come there and like
just dish on all of their tragedies?
I think it's, yeah, they probably get a little money.
I mean, right now they need all they can get.
And also they want to clear their name.
They're obviously so stupid that they can be talked into doing or saying anything.
They're so dumb for showing up there because they look more guilty than ever.
All they did was sit up there and lie, lie, lie about stuff that has been in magazines and has been on the show.
One of them, Nicole, is saying my favorite thing was that Joe said to Andy was we claimed innocence for a reason.
If not, we would have pled out. You did plead out, Dodo.
They rejected it because they have such a strong case against you.
You know, they just kept saying things.
What? I don't know what the charges are. I don't know what the charges are.
I don't even understand the charges.
And Andy's like, really? You don't understand the charges?
And Teresa's like, no, no.
What? What? I don't understand.
Do you have them? Do you have them written there?
And Andy's like, blackmail,
extortion,
fraud, bank fraud, mail fraud,
carnival fraud, not getting
your oil check, citizenship status, not signing up for – it's like every crime that you could ever commit, she's like, oh, okay.
Okay, devil's advocate here for a second. I cannot believe that I'm going to actually say this because I hate Teresa, not as much as I hate Tamara.
Um, but she is so dumb, Ronnie.
She cannot pronounce the word texts properly.
Do you really think that she does know what bank fraud is? Because there's no way this woman knows how to even turn on a fucking calculator.
She probably thinks she does.
She probably doesn't know the difference between fraud and frost.
She's like, what?
So sometimes it gets a little cold on the bank and that's what happens.
You get a little frost.
There's nothing wrong with frost.
Not illegal to have frost in a bank. Oh my okay number one you're hilarious she's like fraud is a
genius you can't argue with fraud he's one of the smartest people that ever walked in the world
that ever walked in the world i'm gonna send him a text this is right now and apologize to you being
rude to fraud yo you know what uh i really learned a lot about myself from all the learnings of fraud
fraud taught us a lot about psychiatry and psychologists and stuff so you know what? I really learned a lot about myself from all the learnings of fraud. Fraud taught us a lot about psychiatry and psychologists and stuff. So, you know, I think for me to have bank fraud is like sort of a fraudian slip for myself, which I think is cool. And, you know, I have to keep it cleansed this year.
to the point, which is she is too dumb to know what is going on.
Don't you think that her husband is really the
problem? And he probably just pushed a lot of documents
in front of her. She signed them.
Now she's in trouble. And
truthfully, if she were to save her own
ass, she should divorce her husband
and expose him and say,
this is a dude who made me sign my life
away. I have no idea what was going on.
He is the problem. And then I might
have some more respect for her and she could move on with her kids. She'll be like the Italian Blue Jasmine. I have no idea what was going on. He is the problem. And then I might have some more respect for her and she could move on with her
kids. She'll be like the Italian Blue
Jasmine. I mean,
Matthew, listen to yourself. Listen to yourself,
Matthew. All right, look back
at all the shit she's done. In the
first or second year, Joe had
that DUI. I think it was the second year because I
actually saw this episode. He gets a DUI.
I wasn't drinking. I was just
you know, I got a DUI and I
got stressed out so I came back to the house and had a couple drinks and then the police came
stupid of course he was like everything that comes out of their mouth is a lie the second
year they were filing for bankruptcy for millions I mean millions of like 11 million dollars wasn't
it it was like a humongous amount that they were basically asking the court to say oh well we well, we don't have to pay back this $11 million to people because we're bankrupt or whatever.
So they robbed, basically robbed those people.
And in order to declare bankruptcy, they had to say all of these different things, one of which was that Teresa didn't have a job or that she was like a secretary or something to Joe.
And that was her job.
Oh, no, that was for the bank loan.
To get the bank loan,
she had to say she was a secretary,
which she wasn't.
She didn't have a job.
And then for the next thing,
it's just all these lies.
Of course she's a liar.
And he told her.
He was like, honey,
you gotta fucking tell a lie.
You know, just tell them this.
And she's like, okay.
And listen, she tells herself lies too.
So she would probably say, I didn't know nothing.
I had no idea what's going on because she actually is.
But that's a lie.
But it's a lie she's told herself, and she actually believes it.
I mean, she's just a crazy woman with no foresight.
And she knows what bankruptcy is.
She knows that if you're declaring bankruptcy, you're supposed to have zero money.
And she's walking around in this huge mansion spending all this money on clothes
we see joe handing out cash to everybody on the air i mean they're just fucking morons and they're
burglars like i'm not gonna stick up for theresa for that she's a burglar she stole money when
you're a tv star you can't wear the same outfit twice oh my god that was hilarious i cannot believe
she say that she said that on the thing joe said
that they had to go out and buy him a ton of new clothes and her new clothes because
she can as a tv star you cannot wear the same outfit twice
and then what was her response thanks honey like oh my god you two are so
but you know what's so funny?
These idiots, they don't realize, okay, so you don't want to be seen on camera in the same outfit.
But what happens is you get filmed doing these interviews, and those interviews get spliced through every show throughout the entire season.
So in many ways, you're seen in the same outfit on multiple, multiple episodes.
So why would you – they're so stupid.
Stupid people. Stupid, stupid stupid stupid people by the end of the episode i was convinced that they are both going
to jail now i don't think that she should go to jail for as long as joe is but i mean ronnie
didn't you kind of get like it was like somber not somber because we're not going to cry for them but
it felt really weird in that clubhouse with andy cohen like andy convinced me that they are going to jail well i mean there's a those are
so many charges and we okay there's two good points made on facebook one of them is well the
other charge is joe's uh drive you know his fake license thing that's not even included in all of
this and he's been driving yeah we've seen him driving on camera.
I don't understand how he's able to drive when he's got that whole...
I mean, that's the thing.
It's like, if it's not one thing, it's another.
I mean, it's beyond just this fraud.
I mean, it's beyond the DUI.
It's that he also walked into a DMV and tried to get a license with his brother's picture.
into a DMV and tried to get a license with his brother's
picture. I mean, that's just
such blatant, ridiculous
and unnecessary fraud right there.
That's all they do.
Stupid.
How disgusting is Bravo, though?
Because, you guys, they are clearly fast-tracking
the next season. I mean, that's why they need to lock in this
cast, because they want to film
all of the shit that goes down with Teresa
and Joe, And I believe
that they said that the trial is set for sometime in February. I feel like it's like right around
Valentine's day, which is awesome. But, um, Bravo is taking advantage of them. Not that they don't
take advantage of all of these women and, you know, just ruin their lives for the sake of ratings.
But how do you feel about them fast tracking the season to include all of this stuff?
I mean, is that what's going to hook us for one more year on this shitty cast?
I think that's good. I like that.
I don't like it because Teresa's off-limits.
Everyone has to be nice to Teresa, which I don't like.
Teresa's a villain, and people need to be telling her off.
And Teresa's best when she's back to the corner with the crazy blink.
Also, I feel like a lot of this is going to be – I think Andy likes Teresa, and I think that he's going – I think that the show likes Teresa.
I mean, obviously.
She's the crown jewel.
She is the crown jewel of the show.
She's the one that deserves the spinoff. Are you kidding me?
So this is going to all be that we're supposed to feel sorry for Teresa.
This is going to be a Teresa pity year. We're not going to have Caroline, thank Jesus. But we don't know who we're going to all be that we're supposed to feel sorry for Teresa. This is going to be a Teresa pity year.
We're not going to have Caroline, thank Jesus.
But, you know, we don't know who we're going to have yet.
Now, if we have some trashy-ass hookers, like if they get Jan on that show and Penny and all these bottom feeders, it's going to be disgusting to watch, but it's going to be super fun.
I just want to add real quick that Derek said on Facebook, you know that Teresa was lying through the whole interview because of that blink.
You're right. You're right.
We're not realizing that the blink and the
squeak squawk are the dead giveaways
for that girl.
I have all the Texas's right here.
That's my list of ingredients.
I mean, you guys, the other thing is...
Finds us mad. How funny was it that's my list of ingredients is i mean you guys the other thing is don't find this match
um how funny was it where andy cone was like you know he's trying to play this role you know he
deserves a an oscar because he's trying to play this role where he's buddies with her and he
really cares because the ratings matter and if theresa goes to jail that might hurt you know
the franchise but then he turns around and he's like, so Teresa,
how do you think you'll, you'll fare in jail? Like that.
I mean, what kind of question is that?
You know, I,
I'm just excited for when she finally goes to jail and then Andy Cohen is up
in his little clubhouse and he's like, Hey, they just went to jail.
Let's do, let's see the remix of them going,
getting carted off in handcuffs. That's going to be like 10 years, 10 years, 10 years, 10 years, guilty, guilty.
And he'll be like smiling.
He's like, tonight's drinking game is convicted.
Mazel of the day, Orange.
Who doesn't love Orange?
The hero pouring Orange Campari is Dina Manzo.
Anyway, we have a lot of other shows to talk about.
So is there any last thoughts?
Last thoughts, Matt?
I hated this season.
I really think that I am excited for Atlanta to come back,
and I don't care about Jersey.
That's how I feel.
The end.
Okay, let's move on to Miami.
I'd just like to point out before we start with Miami
that Miami was terrible and nothing happened,
and we also really need to talk about the other shows this week
because we did not talk about them last week.
And there's a lot of bullshit that needs to be said.
That's why we're moving ahead.
We are rolling forward.
Miami, Miami, Miami.
The star of Miami is clearly Mama Elsa.
She was on TV for the first time in a very long time.
She came home from the hospital.
She thought that there was a piece of fish in her glass, and it was TV gold, people.
TV gold.
It was fantastic.
Mama Elsa is like no one else.
She's great.
I was actually happy to see her as lucid as she was.
And I know it's sort of like an oxymoron to say lucid with Mama Elsa, but seriously, since she did have a stroke, I was afraid she'd be very sort of catatonic and she was just as funny as always I thought it was also cool to
kind of see Mary Sol's father pop up and to look back through that photo album
and I will say this mama Elsa was kind of like a looker for the early 80s and
then that plastic surgery just took her to hell yeah well it's unfortunate did
you ever get the sense looking at Marisol's father
that he may have possibly built
Jurassic Park at some point in his life?
That is definitely Richard Attenborough,
and I was looking for an amber ring
with a little bug in it.
You know, I was like, I'm just waiting for a velociraptor
just to burst onto Star Island.
Tear it down!
That's a velociraptor!
It must have heard me laugh!
Velociraptor's like,
where's the bird?
How funny is that?
I shouldn't do that today because I've already pissed people off
with my screech. Sorry, everybody!
My Teresa will screech.
By the way, there was...
I can't do it today. I need to warm up before this show.
I'm like...
I'm going to go through some other bullet points here. I love how, by the way, I can't do it today. I need to warm up before the show.
Okay, I'm going to go through some other bullet points here. I love how, by the way, every Miami recap just winds up me and Ronnie doing crazy noises.
Sit down! Shut up! Leave!
How could I have?
Okay, okay, okay.
I hate the recap.
The two of you are the ones
who complain about this going too long
because we've been trying to talk.
I do say to Flores,
I'm going to invoice her for him.
Wait a second, Matt.
Every single time I say,
so let's move on to another show,
you say, wait, wait, wait.
I have something left to say about this one show.
And then it's another five minutes
talking about someone's button that was askew.
I like attention to detail. matt matt okay i'm gonna bring up another uh yeah matt another
topic that that gets you guys riled up here um i'm i'm actually team alexia um i feel bad for
this woman i actually think that she's trying to be a good mother and her son is just an asshole
yeah i feel bad for her too i have to say i like alexia i think she's i think she's trying to be a good mother, and her son is just an asshole. Yeah, I feel bad for her, too.
I like Alexia.
I think she's generally good hearted, but I think a little dumb, a little dumb.
She sort of listens to the wrong person at all times.
I mean, you can't be that smart if you're going to marry a drug lord.
I mean, she's basically a little bank fraud away from being Teresa.
That was a very smart move on her part.
Little did she know that the fact that she was formerly married to a crook,
that is the reason why she's on this show, Ben.
That's why she has any money.
That's true, too, actually.
I take it all back.
I like Alexia's mom.
I do find Alexia's mom to be a sophisticated Spanish lady,
sitting down in her chairs with her blazers and whatnot.
I love that when you say sophisticated Spanish lady,
it forces you
to shimmy in your seat it does because i feel like that's what she'd be doing if she could
if she could but she can't because she's a lump on a log yeah
i thought she was so great first of all this is how she sits down she's like
like all totally stiff and she's like
listen
your father was considered
a loser I don't want you to
identify so much
that you are a loser too
dear artists who are watching
our show and are listening to our podcast
I would really love somebody to
create an Emmy I'm looking at you
I would really like a Spanish Jabba the Hutt female.
Somebody needs to make that happen.
Today we will be talking about you, Peter, and the salad that you just ordered,
and why you ordered this.
Buttermilk dressing becomes buttermilk thighs.
Buttermilk dressing becomes buttermilk thighs.
Today, Peter, we are going to talk about your mother and why she never taught you to put your napkin in your lap at the restaurant,
just like now.
Today, Peter, you have finally gotten to the point
that we can go buy you a bra.
Grandma's going to take you.
Forever 21. you are what we call you are what we call a loser and i am showing you this this restaurant because i know you will never be here again because all you do is eat from 7 of 11. 7 of 11?
By the way, I love
when Mama Elsa was like,
I'm not wearing pajamas.
I think it's really, I mean, I'm so
glad they put her on TV, but that was a little
too soon. I think she needed a few more weeks
to realize that those were pajamas.
Pajamas. Pajamas.
Pajamas!
Meanwhile,
our girl Leah was not on the episode at all, by the way.
Did you notice that?
Well, no one will talk to her.
No one will speak to her.
It sucks,
but, I mean, there's no one to be on it with.
Joanna's going to pretend she has sexual issues
with her gay husband, and Lisa's, you know,
got to hang out, I guess, with her.
Weird.
He's getting life over, whatever.
She's like, now he finally knows what it feels like
to have plastic surgery. I'm like, listen, Lisa.
Yeah, sorry, honey.
This is not his first procedure, okay?
That hair is not natural,
and neither is that skin
tossedness.
It did look like he had—I've never had lipo, and I've considered it many a time,
but it did look like he had a gunshot wound to the abdomen.
It looked like he had been soaking in grape soda.
And the armpit.
He had, like, a big thing in the armpit, too.
I guess they did that all over.
I need some money. funny are like dumb straight lazy
straight dudes like she looks under the covers and she's like you're sleeping in a pool of blood
and he's like it's fine yeah that was a really disturbing moment in the show by the way you're
sleeping in blood let me i thought it was kind of funny though that she kept poking and prodding him
she was just not gonna let that go she was, the camera's here. I need a storyline.
I'm going to beat up my husband who's bruised from head to toe.
Yeah.
I felt bad for them this week
because, again, it was another week
where they were just all so desperate
for something to do,
and it was just all terrible.
Like, Adriana and Joanna making up.
I mean, boring.
Then Adriana...
It's just Adriana's bachelorette party.
Like, who cares?
There's not a stripper.
Nothing's going on.
It's like you've got five hags in one of the worst trannies I've ever seen.
Like, come on.
The last time I saw a party look as boring as that was the time that Brianna went to Las Vegas on Orange County with her friend.
And the two of them sat at a table and smoked from a hookah in an empty casino.
They were also staying off the strip exactly this
was this was the equivalent of that you're in miami and this is the best you can do for a
bachelor party and by the way i wanted i want to specify that i'm calling lauren the worst tranny
ever not because of how she looks because she does things like this oh she she said that to you
hello is this passive aggressive this isive? This is me, Lauren.
I know.
She's like, somewhere she found all the rejected jokes from Sex and the City from 1998,
and she's like, I'm going to make it my material.
Yeah, they're not even jokes.
She just says things in, like, a gay guy voice, and everyone starts laughing.
She's like, oh, my God, that girl is stick as a pen.
I'm going to call her a
Beck.
She is
terrifying on all levels
and she really needs to get that skin
sandblasted. What is this
pink martini? I feel so
cosmopolitan.
That was actually funny
though.
The sad thing is that she makes all the stupid puns that I know that I probably would make on a daily basis.
Exactly.
So it's probably just Ben.
It's Ben in a blonde wig.
I think it's different because Ben, you actually act kind of like a straight guy because you were straight for so long.
So you've still got straightness about you.
He's just like, you know that bar, the Gold Coast here?
Never been.
Never been. It's on Santa Monica, here in Santa Monica? Never been, never been.
It's on Santa Monica, not in Santa Monica. But in West Hollywood, there's this bar.
It's called the Old Coast, the Old Coast.
It's called the Gross Coast.
Yeah, but she burned out a long time ago, girl.
The Old Coast, yeah.
And in there, you know, God bless them.
They're nice, and I love going there.
But you know why I love going there?
Because I feel like Katy Perry in there. I feel like the like the youngest well i guess she's not as young and fresh maybe
i should say miley cyrus i feel so young and fresh but she's like one of those old queens at the gold
coast who's like hey what'd you order just a martini oh you're gonna get wasted
it's like her with her penis cut off now i don't know about you guys but
sorry i got sidetracked when when adriana i got side trammied
when her was when adriana burned her wedding dress it actually honestly it kind of offended
me because i'm like you know here's a dress here's a dress that you fake bought for your fake wedding which clearly you bought it probably about two
weeks ago from david's bridal just and then said oh i've been holding on to this for all these
years ever since my wedding got canceled but i was like that dress had its tags on ben that
could have gone to a very that could have gone to a happy quinceanera well i honestly i really felt like my wedding
got canceled we canceled um the wedding was off to my standard canceled they got canceled
they got canceled i had an empanada makes me laugh every time so but here's the thing though
those wedding dresses are not cheap and it's like I felt bad because she could have donated it.
She could have given it to one of those wedding dress, I think, like thrift shops or secondhand wedding gown things.
Or Chanel from Long Island Princesses.
I know.
Either way, it was just such a waste.
I know that one.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
It actually really offended me.
I was like, you're burning your wedding dress that was a fake wedding dress.
Not a fake wedding.
Just to show something.
Yeah, but she was probably burning it just because you know Leah bought it.
She was probably doing it just to piss off.
Oh, and by the way, to get back to
Adriana and
Joanna making up,
I totally knew as soon as they make up,
they're going to make up because Adriana
has a new enemy, and she's going to
somehow twist this into Leah is the problem.
And then,
so then Adriana was like,
well,
you know,
the real problem started when Leah brought Joe Francis to your house.
I'm like,
don't you be starting like that.
Don't act like Joe Francis is the evil.
When you were friends with Joe Francis,
don't try to turn Joanna against Leah.
Like you're the one who made the crazy lie adriana sorry yeah adriana just you know that's and that's why she's
a good housewife because she's just so crazy she believes her own bullshit and she's nothing but a
psycho spreading you know she turned against any one of these girls and she practically did it's
like that day that alexis said that she was she's going to go to the gala and they were all turned mean girl on her and just refused to speak to her and like brushed her off.
And like, yeah, who does that?
These women are all really, really horrible.
And I would be OK if they were more fun to watch.
But, oh, it's like, you know, like wiping up the blood off your trophy, you know, your old husband, weird looking husband.
And nothing's appealing about this show.
Right now, none of the storylines are fun.
Again, the best things were
the old ladies.
But it was better than last week.
The old ladies got more lines.
Yeah.
I will also say, this week
also featured the bonus of seeing
Romaine Lettuce, not only shirtless,
but in glasses, which Joanna Cooper only shirtless but in glasses,
which Joanna Cooper did not like him in glasses, but I thought it was hot.
Anyone else?
Yeah, he's really cute.
He's really, really cute.
Especially because this season he's getting like a cute seat.
So cute.
Oh, he's so, so cute.
Oh.
Joanna.
He's got real creepy. Something in my eye, Joanna. Joanna. Why's got real creepy.
Joanna.
What you do that for, Joanna?
What you do that for, Joanna?
I like when he said,
this role-playing is stupid.
You want to go play the Wii?
Yeah.
Did he say that?
Yeah, he wants to go play Wii.
I mean, I know that none of these people why you do that
for joanna why you do that for because you're not up to my standards he is hot and he's like
cute this season too he's not like an asshole um first of all i was surprised that they didn't have
um dr v come in um to be the sex therapist because they love to rotate those
people around but um did anybody else realize that exactly what she suggested was an episode
of modern family from the second season with phil and claire at the bar yes it was yeah it was also
the plot of a reese witherspoon movie didn't one of those movies start where her and her husband
were like acting like they were on a blind date, and then
you find out that they're really married, and it's like
a...
Things went what? Things
went bad?
I love Bree Switzer.
I feel like, wasn't it also sort of like the
plot of True Lies, minus
the nuclear warheads?
Oh my god. God, that was
the last time I think Jamieie lee curtis was really like
spreading it on on the films now she's in those weird activia commercials and where's where's
like hey everybody your sex symbol is now pooping regularly matt asked matt we can all sleep at
night the question of the podcast and where is tia carrera well she's on dancing the stars she's
Where is Tia Carrera?
Well, she's on Dance of the Stars.
Yeah, I'm sure that her music is more regular, too.
Tia Carrera, more like Tia Nowhere.
Ballroom, please.
Okay, what else happened on Stupid Miami?
Why you do that, Tia Carrera?
Tia Carrera, why you do that? Tia Carrera, Tia Carrera, why you do that?
Tia Carrera, sit down, shut up, or leave the ballroom.
What is that?
Man.
I wanted to tear it down.
I hate him. Send you an invoice. I hate him. I'm not wearing your pajamas.
Pajamas.
No UK woman wear pajamas.
The problem with you, Ersa, is that your pajamas are considered
to be like loser pajamas.
Didn't you like that she wanted Marisol to...
When my son was young...
Okay, never mind. I'm done.
Ronnie's on a delay, Matt. That's all.
Yeah.
When you was young, I didn't realize it was my responsibility to tell you your father was in prison.
You know, like, who am I supposed to say?
Like, I thought it was the best thing for me at that time.
You know, I loved your father.
I loved your father so much.
But I had to leave.
I had to leave your father.
I'm sorry.
That is just what I had to do.
And I hope you're like, I just want you to be happy.
I just want you all to be happy.
I just want you to be happy.
Now here's a bottle of vodka.
Go drive home.
Go kick a taxi.
Because if it makes you happy, kick a taxi. That's all I want vodka. Go drive home. Go kick a taxi. If it makes you happy,
kick a taxi.
That's all I want for me to be happy.
And if it means he has to kick a taxi,
then he has to do that.
That's all I want for him.
That's all that Roman and I want for him.
With the crazy people of Miami.
I try so hard.
I try so hard.
He loves photography.
He loves photography.
I'm kicking a taxi.
I try so hard.
All right, let's move on from Miami, please.
I hate it and wish it was dead right now.
Although, that said, I'm going to be on Leah Black's recast next Monday night, her after show, right after the show, Eastern time.
And I'll post that Monday afternoon so you guys can find it, okay, and come watch it and talk to us.
It'll be Amy Phillips, me, Leah, and some
tranny. I don't know. Are you
two, Ben? No, no.
I'm not scheduled anytime
new. So you'll
be after me then. They rotate us out like
a couple of whores. I know. The last
time I was on, it was me,
Leah,
Leah's drag queen friend, James,
and this random couple, this older couple.
And I really had no idea what was going on.
I am so glad that I am not invited to these things
because if I were on that, it would be serious.
I would just be very, very, very mean.
Well, you know this horrible delay that we have on this episode?
It's like that every...
On Spreecast, it's just like that.
That's the way it is.
And it's really rough because one person
will say something and there's like 10 people on it
one time and then everyone stops at once
it's like trying to go through
an intersection where everyone
at the stop sign it's like an LA store you know
everyone stops and everyone goes at once and crashes
kind of reminds me of that
podcast we did that one time where I pretended
to have technical difficulties because I got so
pissed off that we were including those other people that i shut my computer and was like
fuck this i'm done yeah it's like that yeah but with leah in a turban so it's fun yeah um and
also we got to do with lance bass and his fiance turkey and turkey was so fine that i could i just
kept staring at the screen i was like you're so cute turkey and i was on it like to be i was on
it for two seconds because I would start talking,
and the producer, she kept on taking me off the screen.
I was like, okay, bye, Lance, bye, Lance.
And me too.
They were switching us out like a couple of whores.
That's what I'm saying.
But they'd switch us out like mid-sentence.
So we'd be like, so here's my question for everyone.
And all of a sudden you see your screen coming up.
You're like, wait, wait, my question.
Prostitution.
Yeah, she wasn't paying very much attention to that part of it but yeah um that was really hilarious okay can we talk about
okay now we're gonna talk about nini we're talking okay i watched i watched nini nini okay
i did good for you that was your first time so you go first yeah um so i saw the most recent episode which aired exactly a week ago um and that
was when uh first marlo was on i don't know if she's been on already but like marlo was on and
marlo got into a fight with this woman diana and what i liked about it was that the producers for
once didn't over dramatize the fight they just had this fight and then he was like diana diana
and that's you know you're sort of sitting here like this girl's getting all
fussy and marlo's getting fussy but it's sort of like light-hearted um and then there was this big
fight with the the kids um and that was entertaining too and um i don't know i i enjoyed it more than
i thought i would um because nini is one of the only housewives that is deserving of her own
spinoff because she can actually hold an hour programming on her own.
She can. She actually
can, believe it or not. I know, I was shocked
when I said it last week, but I'm totally into this show
and can we just talk about Greg's
children for a minute?
Sure. Holy shit.
That whole fight was something else. Wow.
I mean, that was a typical, that's
where Nini, I was going to say to Ben when he was
talking about the argument with the bridesmaid and stuff, I mean, Nini is typical, that's where Nini, I was going to say to Ben when he was talking about the argument with the bridesmaid and stuff.
I mean, Nini is the star of this one.
She's not fighting for attention.
It's all about her.
So she's not according to the normal Nini antics.
She's actually trying to be a good person, which is weird to watch.
So the bridesmaid's things is very funny.
But this family thing, she just turns straight up straight up meaning again where she wouldn't let
anybody say anything all she did was yap yap yap oh don't you check me in my house oh damn no and
I know you didn't look at me like that and I know you didn't go to the radio station I know I was
like oh my God you know that she is down it was like she doesn't actually argue well of yell you
know but she knows how to yell an argument you get me in an argument because you can't get a word in
edge but she knows she can do a filibuster
like no one else. It's like the two of you
are Nini and I'm just me.
Yeah.
Oh, poor Matt.
There needs to be a Bravo show
called Poor Matt, and then we can
all call in each week and be like,
this is why I feel bad for Matt today.
Matt gets to be
on his podcast.
Can Tia Carrera be my sidekick?
Matt is just too thin and adorable.
Tia Carrera is the band leader.
Oh, Matt!
She's my band leader?
Well, actually, she could just sing Ballroom Blitz over and over and over again.
And then you could look at her and think of Dreamweaver.
Oh, my God.
That's my new cell phone game.
Ballroom Blitz.
People in the ballroom. Ronnie,nie i hate your delay i'm putting
it out here i'm putting it out here ronnie i hate that you're on this weird five second delay because
you keep on commenting things like five seconds later and it's very disorienting i don't have
him on a delay i have you both live i'm sorry my problem now is that you're good
now i think it it switched to Ben.
Ronnie, you're a robot, buddy.
Ronnie's a robot.
Robots are on delay automatically.
Speak, Ronnie.
Yeah, he's a robot.
Robot.
Robot.
Robot.
Robot.
I think this is...
If you're going to do that,
at least do a robot dance.
You have to do a robot dance with that.
To people of the internet,
I'm sorry.
A message.
People of the internet.
We apologize, especially people on audio.
I think this is a sign that we have to
start going back to Skype.
Oh, bye.
There goes Ronnie. Well, maybe now we'll all be on the same page
when he comes back.
Oh, wait, let me invite this poor guy back into this.
Okay, I can do this for about three more minutes
because he's getting old.
Okay, Ronnie, let's get him back into this show.
So anyway, so Nini, I liked I Dream of Nini.
I, you know, Greg annoys me.
I'll be frank. I think that think that yeah i mean i don't really
really annoying i don't really get why she's with him i mean i understand that she needed his money
when she was poe but like yeah now is she just afraid of dating like i mean she could look she
is a moose no doubt but she has money and she's powerful and she's famous she could at least date
tyler perry she could listen she's got booty, and it doesn't matter what your face
looks like if you've got a booty for certain guys.
And she could probably do quite
well if she wanted to. Welcome back, Ronnie.
Whatever, whatever.
Robot. Still robot.
Can you hear me? Robot. Still robot.
Okay, just ignore me.
I'll just listen to you guys.
Okay, so...
We have a robot listening to us.
So here's the thing with Greg.
I feel like he's actually genuinely a stupid person.
I think he's a very stupid man, right?
Well, look at the way that he interacts with his children.
Yeah.
And he's like a shyster, too.
I feel like everything he says is full-on bullshit.
You know, when he's like the goal
my goal now is to get the whole family together i'm like no your goal now is to be back on tv
and earning residuals and all that you have that's all and i feel bad for his kids and i did you did
you notice also um at the end of the episode did you see that it's nini leaks productions i did
that was what really that was the thing that really
stuck in my mind after the first episode.
Again, I liked it, and I like NeNe,
and I think that she makes for good TV, but
it's just like they're beating
us over the head with how fake
this is and how it's just all a money-making scheme
for these people.
Yeah, absolutely.
Especially Greg.
I just really don't
buy his motivations.
To me, he's a total shyster.
What do you think of his kids?
His kids, they make for good TV.
They do.
I mean, I want to hear and see more from them.
I guess we'll find out.
I think it's actually the next episode is airing right now as we speak.
I think it's just about to start.
But, yeah, I'll tune in. I'll'll see how this works out there's a lot of screaming
which i appreciate now do you think um that nini should have a newer friend be a bridesmaid
um no no i think bridesmaids are meant for people to go back go. How long do you have to know someone before
you can be invited to be a bridesmaid
or a best
or a groomsman? Well, I mean, I'm not a category
expert, but I like to
make bold statements, and I say minimum five years.
Well, I say for your
first wedding, maybe, but for your, like,
third, and you're, like, marrying
an old guy again for the second time,
those rules don't apply and no one's
going to have to bring you a fucking gift either while we're at it.
Robot.
Ronnie, what's wrong with your connection?
I don't know.
Okay, I'm going to
just continue watching you guys and
get out of the scene. I'll see you next time.
Why don't you put yourself on mute
and then add what you have to say on the chat on the side.
Okay.
Okay.
Ronnie's still here with us.
And you can give us a thumbs up or thumbs down.
So anyway, so we were talking about – so I don't think you have to be five years to be a president.
What if you're like a roommate to someone?
What if you're like living – I think two years is good.
I think two years is a good amount of time.
Well, I don't know i mean this is like well how long before you can call somebody your girlfriend
or like everybody has different rules for everything and you know i don't think well
never mind i'm just gonna notice did you more importantly did you notice very casually nini
mentioned that the former lead singer of on the will be one of her bridesmaids.
Right, which means Don Richardson?
No, Don Robert Robinson.
Don Richards is... I don't know who Don Richards is.
You know what? No, Don Richard... Maybe she was on a different line.
Don Richard, I think, was a former member of Danity Kane.
Oh. And Don Robinson was in En Vogue.
And who's Sean Robinson? Is she like a reporter for Extra TV? Oh, and Don Robinson is in Invoke, and there's a Don that was on.
And who's Shawn Robinson?
Is she like a reporter for Extra TV?
Yeah, Access.
You know what?
I think actually a different world.
The character was named Don, but I forgot the actress's name.
Right.
Don Lewis.
Her name was Don Lewis, wasn't it?
But then who's Donna Lewis?
Didn't she sing, I love you always forever?
Always forever, dear and far.
Ronnie has now left.
That makes me think of Emanuel Lewis, who is the star of TV's Webster.
And did you hear that Webster's dad recently died, George Papadopoulos?
He did.
He did die.
No, his name's Papadopoulos.
He's a former football player, right?
Yes, but his character was George Papadopoulos.
And then he would open the little grandfather clock, and Webster
would pop out. And his real name was
like Larry Zunga or something like that?
No, that's the guy who was also
the co-host of American Gladiators with Mike
Adamley. Oh, exactly.
And American
Gladiators, we had, was that
someone named Torch on there?
Or someone named Siren?
Oh, Siren was the deaf girl.
Oh, but you know that there was the new American Gladiators
with Hulk Hogan and Leila Ali.
That is true.
And Leila Ali, who has no relation to Tatiana Ali,
who was on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
With Alfonso Ribeiro,
who I cannot properly pronounce his last name.
Which was also on the NBC lineup, along with A Different World,
The Dawn Circle Comes Together.
Complete.
I don't know.
I enjoyed I Dream of Mimi, but I don't know if I had a huge amount to say about it.
No, I'm just watching it.
I'm enjoying it.
I think that I'm probably enjoying it more because Tamara is now off the air,
and I don't care about her OC wedding.
I'll tell you what else I watched this week.
I watched the season, perhaps, series finale of Eat, Drink, Love.
Did you watch that?
You are alone, dude.
I gave up after four episodes.
I gave up a while ago, too, and then I came back for this ending. And I have to say, the season finale epitomized what works and what didn't work about the show,
which is that the first, like, ten minutes were super catty and full of, like, all the promise and potential that the show seemed to have.
I was just going to say this.
It was, like, you know, this Lindsay mixologist girl started up with Cat O'Dell, and they were all being catty.
Like, I don't know if I can support an event, and I don't know if I can do this. and they were all being catty like well i don't know if i i don't know if i can support an event and i don't know if i could do this and they were all talking
back and forth and i was like oh i was like oh you know i forgot how catty the show can be and
how great it can be and then you know the rest of the episode just sort of like fell into this
slow like nina was doing a pop-up and she spent the whole episode being like, yo, I'm too tired for this fucking shit, yo.
I can't do this, yo.
It's so hard for me to do this, yo.
My boys are in there working, yo.
I can't do this pop-up, yo.
And Marcel was there.
I do love Marcel, and that's why it's still on my DVR, because I will enjoy that on the late shift.
He always did. He's my little Wolverine. No, but he looks better than he late shift. He always did.
He's my little Wolverine.
No, but he looks better than he ever has.
He somehow filled out a little bit.
Marcel looked good.
Ben, will you be watching?
Are you excited?
I'm actually really excited for the season premiere of Top Chef New Orleans.
Oh, I'm very excited for that.
And I have to say, you guys were shooting on Top Chef Masters.
I loved the season.
I heard from some other friends that this was guys were shooting on Top Chef Masters. I loved the season.
I heard from some other friends that this was the best season of Top Chef Masters.
Yeah, it was good casting.
Because last year the casting was very dull.
Maybe even the year before that too.
This year I was in it.
I liked the chefs.
They cooked a finale meal that James Ostlund said was the best it ever had on the show.
Wow.
Yeah.
I love James Ostlund. was the best it ever had on the show. I love James Ostlund.
He's a great judge.
Having Gail Simmons around always makes me happy. I don't like Curtis Stone that much.
Ronnie's back.
Curtis Stone is not worthy
of any TV screen.
Any reason to bring Gail back makes me happy.
But like you said, it's all about
casting, and I'm really hoping
that Top Chef New Orleans brings a great cast. Hopefully they'll have a few less be um but like you said it's all about casting and i'm really hoping that top chef new orleans
brings a great cast hopefully they'll have a few less um fork and knife tattoos because that makes
me so fucking mad um no you're gonna get a bunch of ninas you're gonna get a bunch of ninas from
eat drink love we'll be talking as if they're like i mean she literally was you think i'm joking
when i'm saying yo i'm working so hard yo but that's actually the way she was talking on this finale. Oh, can you hear me now?
Or am I still on? Yeah, yo,
we can hear you, yo. Oh my god.
Okay, Nina,
I can't believe you're doing this to me, yo.
Get that camera away from me
now, yo. I mean it, yo.
That's not cool.
I can't believe y'all don't like my food, yo.
Yo, like my boys
are back here working on this, yo.
She tries so hard to be straight.
That is some little rich girl who's trying to be straight.
Sorry, honey.
You just a little rich girl.
Be okay with it and spend a lot of money like most little rich girls and stop trying to get a blue-collar job to try and prove something to somebody.
You don't have to prove anything to me, but stop saying yo so much.
You're ridiculous.
Stop it. anything to me but stop saying yo so much you're ridiculous one thing that i'm sad about with eat
drink love is that i wish you were a bigger hit if only for the amount of cat odell gifts that
it would have spawned because cat odell is always giving these looks that would be perfect for
internet memes so like sorry people who are only listening you're missing me doing my Cat O'Dell face.
Cat O'Dell is, I think that this is another Bravo show.
That's a good face.
I think that this is another Bravo show that they threw at us so quickly.
And they were like, let's just make it about a bunch of food girls and follow them around with some cameras. And we'll see if we can put something together.
And they get in the editing room and they try and make it something but by the end it kind of knew what it was going
to be at least it was better and i was entertained by the show i just think that there it's so shoddy
the way that they greenlit like five million shows this year and they're all total crap i mean so far
they've all been total crap even below deck which is coming back and did well don't you think bite
your tongue you horrible person i became a below did well, don't you think? Bite your tongue, you horrible person.
I became a Below Deck convert.
I don't think Below Deck was crap.
I hated that one. Okay, did you guys
talk about... We were talking about
Top Chef Masters, actually,
and also excitement for Top Chef New Orleans.
We should really
up our Top Chef coverage for this season.
I'm in.
We failed last season on that part. Well, because the cast was shit. No, I coverage for this season. I'm in. We failed last season on that part.
Well, because the cast was shit.
No, I loved it last season.
We talked a bit about it last year.
Sure, we did talk about it.
Well, we're going to make sure Top Chef gets nicely represented.
I'm fully committed.
I'm just not a Top Chef Masters person.
I don't know why.
Me too. I'm not into Masters.
It was good this season, I'm telling you.
The guy who won, I loved him. He he was really adorable he's like the sweet gentle guy
i liked him but he's like funny too i have to um announce to you guys that i have got to quit
watching the new atlanta i can't i just can't okay ben what's your take because i cannot do it
i can't do it i only i'm telling you I watch as much as I said I watched last week, and I can't.
The only thing I like is that in the promos,
Africa says, girl, bye.
That's it.
Girl, bye.
You guys talk about it for two seconds.
I'm going to try to look through it.
No, there's nothing to say.
I didn't watch it.
I didn't watch it.
Okay, well, I'm going to look up the ratings right now
to see if it's going to bother us for the rest of time
or if the show's going to get canceled.
So, stand by.
That show is just so stupid.
I hate the guy who thinks he's like this big music producer and that he's so fine and that everybody wants to sleep with him.
And he shows up wearing T-shirts that say things like hot ham or whatever the hell his T-shirt said.
I was like, really?
You're like in your 30s.
Stop it.
Like grow up a little.
I don't know.
I just don't.
I don't like anybody.
Usually you have to like really like someone and really hate somebody.
I don't like anybody on usually you have to like really like someone and really hate somebody i don't
like anybody and i can't even really hate anybody because the girl who's trying to be the villain
is she's just so young and stupid i don't know i think it's like that problem i had kind of with
gallery girls where they're so young i feel bad making fun of them you know there is nothing
ever wrong with gallery girls so don't ever say that again yeah no i
loved gallery girls but i remember saying while that show was on like i you i would just forgive
them for everything like if they were really super mean behind each other's back i'd be like but
they're 20 so it's okay the ones that i really have a have the trouble with are the old ladies
who are still acting like that that's what i I have problems with. But like the young kids,
I'm like,
well,
they're thin and they're not on drugs and they've got a job.
So,
I mean,
for all I care,
they could be kicking old ladies in the street,
you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
You guys.
Atlanta.
Yeah.
That's a lot of posers on that show.
What?
Tell us that.
I have really bad news.
Is it doing really well?
I haven't even gotten to that yet,
but I just looked at the ratings for the
Real Housewives of Miami last night.
And?
Less than 700,000
viewers. That is down
with Gallery Girls ratings.
Well, look, we've been the biggest cheerleaders
I think on this show
for Real Housewives of Miami.
But the producers don't deliver, Ronnie, so we can't keep changing the show that is so boring week after week.
Yeah, we can't just keep making ourselves do it.
Well, it's good.
The first few episodes of the season were good, but the past two or three have been unpopular.
Damn, that is bad news.
That is bad ratings.
Okay, keep going.
I'm going to find Sunday night's ratings.
Okay, keep going. I'm going to find Sunday night's ratings.
It's a shame because I think that Real Housewives of Miami, even when dull, it's beautiful to look at.
I love this world that Bravo is going into.
How many shows about Atlanta can we possibly watch?
No more, please. The answer is many.
But I like the Miami world, the Miami space that they're in.
And I want the show to survive.
I do, too.
I just think, you know, it kind of has to be a team effort.
These girls, they're on their third season, but it's basically like their second season
because their first season kind of didn't count.
Like, that was a mulligan.
True, true.
So this is their second season, and their real second season was so good
because there were so
many women and they were all really going at it and this one they're just all being me so and look
i'm not saying that leah's like perfect and doesn't deserve to get bitched at or whatever
like she says a lot of snotty things too but it's just hard to watch all these women gang up on one
woman because it makes them not interesting you know it's like now they're all up adriana's ass
and she's horrible.
Why would you choose that woman's side?
Just because she's the scariest.
And they needed to have a new cast member.
Plus, Joanna has not been drinking this season,
and as a result, she hasn't been crazy.
We've also missed Marta.
Marta made for good TV as well.
Marisol is on a lot, even though she's not a real
housewife. She is basically a real housewife.
They just must have cut out all the
little parts where she's like, I'm Marisol.
They cut all the posing
parts, but she's still a main housewife.
She's boring as hell.
Adriana's boring as hell, because she's not
really fighting with anybody, except Leah, and Leah
won't fight back.
They shouldn't have gotten rid of Karen Sierra.
They should have kept her around because
she caused drama, too.
And they should have also kept around the one who
turned evil at the end, Anna, who was
nice and boring the whole year until the end
when she turned into Satan.
She needs to be back on, too.
She was great on the reunion because she
actually did something and actually got up in
people's faces, and then it's like we never saw her again.
Yeah, they made a mistake. They found a cast
that worked and then they got rid of all the ones that were
fighting or had issues. It's like, why would you do
that? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
Stupid. Stupid.
Stupid.
They also don't have a fiery Latina in there.
They've got Adriana, but they need to
have, like, they didn't need to keep Lisa
honestly. Lisa, there was no reason to keep Lisa. They've got Adriana, but they need to have, like, they didn't need to keep Lisa, honestly. Lisa, there was
no reason to keep Lisa. They should have
gone, they should have found a vet from
Big Brother 6 and told the vet, okay,
guess what, you're on a new show, and you can
be on here and be crazy and nasty.
Well, there are plenty of crazy
Latinos they could have had on there. I don't know.
It's just, I don't, the bad, bad,
bad, bad job, bad job this year, guys.
I hope they pick it up, though, because I hope the last few episodes...
I mean, how many episodes are we in? Like seven?
We've still got a ton of episodes left.
No, no, no. The season order is not as long as it is for something like Beverly Hills or New York by any means.
Oh, is it like a 13 episode?
I think it's probably about 13.
Did you notice they did the halfway, coming up this season
on Miami, they did that last week. Yeah, I already
feel like we are now on the home stretch where
we've got to knock out two weddings and then get to the reunion.
Yeah, well, the weddings will be the end.
They'll be the last one,
the last thing, probably. Meh, whatever.
I had high hopes for that show.
That's another problem,
which is that they were given the
season arc storylines
of weddings, which, again, is something that I think
people on Bravo don't really care about, people who watch.
So I think Real Housewives
of Miami has completely brought this podcast
down. I'm ready to wrap this up.
Yeah, let's wrap it up. It's almost time,
but I do want to say something.
You guys, people on
our Facebook page have been asking
us to watch Real Housewives of Vancouver
forever, and I just
keep ignoring it because I'm like, I've got enough.
I've got enough, okay?
Every time they say that, I say,
mail us some DVDs, people.
Oh, it's on YouTube. You don't need it.
It's all on YouTube. Every episode's on.
I want somebody to...
Get an Apple TV, girl. Excuse me. It's all on YouTube. I want somebody to...
Get an Apple TV, girl.
Excuse me. I do this for free.
Anyhow.
Anyway, Ronnie, make your point.
That's playing the podcast another 10 minutes.
Anyway, it won't take that long.
I just wanted to say thank you
because I was desperate last week
before all the fall premieres came on
Sunday and gave me like 10 hours of tv to watch in one day wow this is probably the worst housewives i've ever seen
it's the cheapest the people on it are the most awful fucking people in the world and i can't
stop watching it i mean these women are barracudas they are horrid There are two women in particular named Ronnie and Jodi. Ronnie, of course.
They are total seabirds.
Ronnie and Jodi.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, I hope I would be Ronnie because she's richer.
But, yeah, they're vile women.
And we probably won't talk about it on this show because I'm the only one watching it.
But I wanted to thank the listeners.
You've sold me on it.
I'm going home to watch YouTube right now.
I mean, it's horrible. And they rip off
every Housewives story. Like, one
lady teaches her kid to drive.
And then there's the one where
we're concentrating on the lady's business.
Like, the business one.
And, I mean, it's all of the tropes.
But it's...
I mean, it's just vile.
You've got to watch it these women are disgusting
the things they end up doing to each other
are really worth it it's terrible
TV but it's fun
so thanks listeners
