- 0:38Speaker 1: anything up because, as y'all know she was, I was
- 0:42Speaker 1: most nervous to interview her at Bravo con So. Caroline

- 1:05Speaker 1: facility in Peterson, New Jersey. She's often described as a

- 1:30Speaker 1: were you shooting yesterday? I was just doing my little
- 1:33Speaker 1: YouTube show, my cooking show. When Isaacham's rock he was
- 1:36Speaker 1: my guest, so he came over the house and we
- 1:37Speaker 1: had fun. Yeah, that's so cool. Do you shoot Do
- 1:44Speaker 1: you shoot it from your house all the time? Well?
- 1:47Speaker 1: This this, uh, next couple of weeks, I want to
- 1:50Speaker 1: start venturing out too. We went to Brooklyn last week
- 1:54Speaker 1: and just went to all the different hot spots from
- 1:56Speaker 1: when I was a kid, um and just trying to
- 1:59Speaker 1: go to different restaurants and stuff. I'm doing everything myself.
- 2:02Speaker 1: It's a learning curve, so like really sucks because you
- 2:07Speaker 1: don't know what kind of money you're spending, what you're doing,
- 2:09Speaker 1: and it's just when you're doing it all yourself. It's
- 2:11Speaker 1: a lot so to work in progress, but it's fun.
- 2:13Speaker 1: At least it's mine and I don't have to worry
- 2:15Speaker 1: about any nonsense, you know, right, you have to you
- 2:19Speaker 1: don't have to worry about the bad at it exactly exactly.
- 2:24Speaker 1: What's your favorite thing? To cut. Sunday dinner is my
- 2:27Speaker 1: favorite thing because it's just involved. Sunday dinner means a
- 2:30Speaker 1: million different things. It's like eight or ten different dishes
- 2:33Speaker 1: and food constantly. So I would say Sunday because everybody's
- 2:36Speaker 1: around and you never know what the day is going
- 2:39Speaker 1: to turn into. So I very large blankets Sunday dinner. Yeah,
- 2:44Speaker 1: so all your kids come, your husband, like you, just
- 2:48Speaker 1: your entire family. Well, my husband may ever around, he's working,
- 2:52Speaker 1: so no, not him. It's fine. Do do you have
- 2:58Speaker 1: any kids to live at home any? No? I didn't
- 3:01Speaker 1: think so. No they have. They've been out for years yet,
- 3:04Speaker 1: and they all live close by. My boys are about
- 3:07Speaker 1: an hour and a half away. Um, they're down the shore,
- 3:10Speaker 1: and Lauren is two towns over, so she's about ten
- 3:13Speaker 1: minutes away, fifteen minutes. So you get to see your
- 3:16Speaker 1: granddaughter alive. She's here right now. She's this week so
- 3:20Speaker 1: she's got a little bit of a fever. So she's
- 3:22Speaker 1: upstairs with my husband right now. How old is she now?
- 3:25Speaker 1: She just turned six? Oh my good mass so cool.
- 3:31Speaker 1: It was fun used to say, you know all the
- 3:33Speaker 1: time with people with the grandkids, like, I don't want
- 3:36Speaker 1: to hear about your grandkids. I don't want to see
- 3:38Speaker 1: your kids. I don't care, but you gotta make believe
- 3:42Speaker 1: you do. But now I understand it. So apologies to
- 3:45Speaker 1: everybody in the past. Well that's that's how I feel
- 3:48Speaker 1: about cats. Like I don't want to see a picture
- 3:52Speaker 1: of your cat. I don't fire my cat right now,
- 3:57Speaker 1: Like don't care to see it. Just so we get
- 4:03Speaker 1: it all. Just we start and we get it done with,
- 4:08Speaker 1: and then we can move on to more positive things.
- 4:12Speaker 1: I just like to throw it right out there. Yeah,
- 4:14Speaker 1: Brandy's been tweeting up a storm. I don't know if
- 4:16Speaker 1: you've seen the tweets. I haven't, Okay, So essentially, she said,
- 4:22Speaker 1: I can speak on anything I want to speak on
- 4:24Speaker 1: at the end of an eighteen hour work day at
- 4:27Speaker 1: our belly dancing. I'd like to see the footage of
- 4:29Speaker 1: it beforehand, as both myself and Caroline were very intoxicated.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I am sick of this narrative. I was hired for
- 4:36Speaker 1: a second season because people loved me and I was
- 4:39Speaker 1: told to bring the party. My question is for you, like,
- 4:47Speaker 1: after hearing that, how do you feel and what is
- 4:51Speaker 1: kind of your response to it? Um? You know this
- 4:56Speaker 1: was very traumatic for me. This is a really large
- 5:02Speaker 1: onion with a lot of layers, all right, and I
- 5:05Speaker 1: guess it'll play out. Um. That statements disappointing to me. Um,
- 5:12Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to talk too much about
- 5:14Speaker 1: it because I'm going through a lot with it and
- 5:16Speaker 1: i'm processing it all. Have you talked to Brandy at all? No? No,
- 5:22Speaker 1: And there's still an investigation going on? Or is that
- 5:25Speaker 1: over with? Oh that's over, that's over. M Yeah. Well
- 5:30Speaker 1: I'm sorry that you're going going through that. Um. Would
- 5:33Speaker 1: you ever do Girls Trip again but with a different cast? Never? No? No? Never? Never? Never? Never?
- 5:43Speaker 1: What what about going back to a real Housewives in
- 5:46Speaker 1: New Jersey? Never? Never? Huh wow, Okay you're happy? Were
- 5:53Speaker 1: you considering maybe back then? Um? You know, I've heard
- 5:58Speaker 1: a lot of buzz that they wanted you to come back.
- 6:00Speaker 1: You know what, It's always the buzz every year. Who
- 6:02Speaker 1: the heck knows what's true what's not? I know over
- 6:04Speaker 1: the years, multiple times I've been asked this last season
- 6:09Speaker 1: being one of them. Um, it was. It was something
- 6:12Speaker 1: that was I was done with and happy to be
- 6:14Speaker 1: done with it. I walked away for a reason for
- 6:17Speaker 1: me to go back, I always said for me to
- 6:20Speaker 1: go back, it would have to be something that was
- 6:22Speaker 1: a number that was financially irresponsible to walk away fast.
- 6:27Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Yeah, like financially irresponsible, like
- 6:31Speaker 1: how do you walk away? And I've been off for
- 6:33Speaker 1: a lot of money, you know, in the real world,
- 6:35Speaker 1: I guess, but it's just never anything that was worth
- 6:38Speaker 1: it to me to go back to that. Um right,
- 6:41Speaker 1: you gotta do what's right. So now now, no, no,
- 6:47Speaker 1: But what about Bravo cons Because I saw you, we
- 6:51Speaker 1: did we did an interview together time. I remember feeling
- 6:54Speaker 1: so nervous. I was like, they were like, who are
- 6:56Speaker 1: you most nervous to interview? And I was like, Caroline, Man,
- 7:00Speaker 1: she's just like so like everything I know about it.
- 7:03Speaker 1: But then you were so kind and fine and easy
- 7:05Speaker 1: to talk to. But I was like, my misconception about me.
- 7:10Speaker 1: I am the most easygoing person alive. I don't give
- 7:15Speaker 1: a lot to the cameras because we I think as housewives,
- 7:18Speaker 1: we all have that a little bit of PTSD that
- 7:21Speaker 1: you don't know what's gonna happen, so you're very very reserves.
- 7:24Speaker 1: I for one, am very very reserves. You know. I'll
- 7:27Speaker 1: sing and dance with my family and stuff like that.
- 7:29Speaker 1: But I won't do it on housewise because I'll never forget.
- 7:32Speaker 1: Years ago they did that too. It was Ramona and
- 7:38Speaker 1: she was dancing and they put it She probably was
- 7:40Speaker 1: dancing fine, but they put this music to her that
- 7:43Speaker 1: she looked like a freaking ass. And I'm like, oh,
- 7:46Speaker 1: I thought happens live. You think of these things like,
- 7:50Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that because I don't know what
- 7:51Speaker 1: they're gonna do with it, you know kind of thing.
- 7:54Speaker 1: But yeah, so I didn't got me to this place.
- 7:57Speaker 1: But there's a lot of housewives. It makes me nervous.
- 8:01Speaker 1: I was gonna say, no, you're not one of them.
- 8:03Speaker 1: I'm very easy going, I'm super laid back. I think maybe,
- 8:07Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember. It was probably fifteen
- 8:10Speaker 1: years ago. I was in New York doing press and
- 8:13Speaker 1: we went to dinner. We went to I mean, that
- 8:15Speaker 1: was an epic night. Yeah, that was who else was
- 8:18Speaker 1: at dinner? That was fun? It was couples. Teresa was there,
- 8:24Speaker 1: Jacqueline was there, the husbands were there, um, And then
- 8:28Speaker 1: we had dinner. Then we went across the street to
- 8:30Speaker 1: the gay bar across the street. Remember, Yeah, we had
- 8:33Speaker 1: some drinks and um that the rest was history. The
- 8:36Speaker 1: rest is history. That's what it was fun in the
- 8:39Speaker 1: early days before the natural media. You know, social media
- 8:44Speaker 1: is like the greatest thing in the world and social
- 8:46Speaker 1: media is the devil at the same time. It's it's
- 8:47Speaker 1: it's a double ledged sword. Um. You know, when I left,
- 8:51Speaker 1: it was social media was just starting to be like
- 8:54Speaker 1: a real big thing. Um. So like now when you
- 8:58Speaker 1: do the you know, the ads and stuff and you
- 9:01Speaker 1: have the overlays, my brain wants to explode because social
- 9:04Speaker 1: media has taken over there. You have TikTok, you have
- 9:06Speaker 1: every a million different ways to get out there. But
- 9:09Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a good thing or a
- 9:10Speaker 1: bad thing. It's just it's just a lot of more
- 9:14Speaker 1: stuff that we got to worry about getting out there. Yeah,
- 9:19Speaker 1: can you remind us how did you get cast on
- 9:22Speaker 1: New Jersey? Purely by accident? Um? There was the group
- 9:28Speaker 1: I guess Cyrus went around to salons in our area
- 9:31Speaker 1: and they said, well, affluent women over the top, YadA, YadA, YadA.
- 9:36Speaker 1: So the person that owned the salon mentioned everybody but me,
- 9:41Speaker 1: which makes sense because again, super low key, I don't
- 9:46Speaker 1: wear makeup. I'm not like you. Know it's not me,
- 9:49Speaker 1: so I understand me not being mentioned. So they were
- 9:53Speaker 1: doing I guess the sizzle reels. They were going around
- 9:56Speaker 1: to everybody's houses and Jackline at the time literally lived
- 10:00Speaker 1: half a block of white. So she goes, we need
- 10:02Speaker 1: to go over my sisian Will Caroline's house. So she
- 10:05Speaker 1: calls me up in true Jacqueline style. All right, cameras
- 10:08Speaker 1: are coming over and I'm like, no, Jacqueline, they don't
- 10:10Speaker 1: need to come over. I hang up the phone. They're there,
- 10:13Speaker 1: So she sent them and then she called me and
- 10:16Speaker 1: I said, listen, I don't belong on the show. Blah
- 10:18Speaker 1: blah blah, and they tape and then um they wanted
- 10:24Speaker 1: me and I said, no, I'm not going to do it.
- 10:26Speaker 1: And they said, well, we need you for the balunce.
- 10:29Speaker 1: That's because I'm a lot older than them. I don't,
- 10:32Speaker 1: you know, I don't hang the way they hang. I
- 10:34Speaker 1: don't do all that. At the time. I had three
- 10:35Speaker 1: kids in high school at high school, and they said, no,
- 10:39Speaker 1: we need need you for the bounce, and I said,
- 10:42Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, you know, it was more of
- 10:44Speaker 1: a family yeah show. I mean there's a lot of
- 10:47Speaker 1: people from your family and I just though it was
- 10:50Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of weeks long and you know, done,
- 10:52Speaker 1: boom gun, and everybody forget about it, never thinking in
- 10:55Speaker 1: a million years it would turn into where it turned into.
- 11:10Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Melissa saying that you were
- 11:12Speaker 1: too old to come back to the cast? Well, she
- 11:15Speaker 1: did say it. I remember her saying it, but I don't.
- 11:17Speaker 1: I don't hate her for saying it. You gotta remember
- 11:20Speaker 1: at the time, I'm twenty years older than her. Okay,
- 11:23Speaker 1: so she's in early thirties. I'm fifty two or whatever. Um,
- 11:28Speaker 1: you don't want to hang with that when you're thirty,
- 11:31Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I'm a fun chasten But like,
- 11:38Speaker 1: I disagree. I disagree with what she says. Like on
- 11:41Speaker 1: our cast right now, we have girls. We have a
- 11:43Speaker 1: girl in her thirties. I'm fifty five, but I twenty. Well,
- 11:49Speaker 1: I think, and again, I remember I remember her saying it,
- 11:53Speaker 1: and I remember being bothered for half a second back
- 11:56Speaker 1: then because I kind of heard it through the door.
- 12:00Speaker 1: And I'm like, but then, when you think about it now,
- 12:02Speaker 1: when you think about it back then, it's a kid talking.
- 12:06Speaker 1: It's a thirty year old kid talking. Yeah, so I
- 12:10Speaker 1: take no offense to it then, and I take no
- 12:12Speaker 1: offense to it now. It's silly knowing their history. Do
- 12:16Speaker 1: you think that Melissa and Teresa are done for good?
- 12:22Speaker 1: I think so, really, I think so. You know, I
- 12:25Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what happened. I know the
- 12:29Speaker 1: cliff notes of what happened. Yeah, but there comes the
- 12:34Speaker 1: point we just gotta be like, like, everybody's got to
- 12:40Speaker 1: be sick of it at this point. But my question is,
- 12:43Speaker 1: do you think that it's truly do you think it's
- 12:46Speaker 1: Melissa or do you think it's actually Joe and Teresa
- 12:50Speaker 1: Like they keep saying it's you know, it's Melissa involved.
- 12:54Speaker 1: But in my opinion, when I'm watching it, I'm like,
- 12:57Speaker 1: Joe and Teresa are the ones that really seem to
- 13:01Speaker 1: have that list is pretty neutral. Well, she's you know, listen,
- 13:07Speaker 1: I remember, way way way back in the day. Um,
- 13:12Speaker 1: Melissa is not wrong. Melissa is not wrong because I remee.
- 13:16Speaker 1: You listen, Sometimes she behaves badly and sometimes you know,
- 13:20Speaker 1: when you're when you fire back, you fire, you have
- 13:22Speaker 1: a misfire kind of thing. But um, Melissa's not wrong,
- 13:26Speaker 1: and listen there over the years, she's done some crappy
- 13:30Speaker 1: things I would have done about how much how much
- 13:32Speaker 1: can you take before you start store, before you start
- 13:35Speaker 1: hitting back? But I remember years and years before TV,
- 13:39Speaker 1: before TV, that it would always be something's bent said
- 13:43Speaker 1: about Melissa, that we were so conditioned to dislike her
- 13:47Speaker 1: when we met her. And I apologize to both her
- 13:50Speaker 1: and Kathy because we were so conditioned almost brainwashed to
- 13:53Speaker 1: dislike them before we met them, that we treated them
- 13:57Speaker 1: when they first came on the show, and um, I
- 14:00Speaker 1: apologize in the booths and saying that you know that
- 14:02Speaker 1: wasn't cool, but I was conditioned to think that way. Yeah,
- 14:06Speaker 1: what made you ultimately decide to leave toxic? To change
- 14:12Speaker 1: my world? It changed by the dynamic in my house
- 14:16Speaker 1: because you girls know as well as I do, when
- 14:18Speaker 1: you finished filming, that doesn't mean it's over. That's a
- 14:22Speaker 1: year round thing. That's when the text starts and film
- 14:26Speaker 1: easy part. Yeah, and it filming is the easy part exactly.
- 14:29Speaker 1: But if I'm talking within the caste, yeah, that's when
- 14:33Speaker 1: you have the phone calls and what to do next
- 14:35Speaker 1: and who's going to hang out with him? When it
- 14:37Speaker 1: just it stops? Why did you say that? Why didn't
- 14:40Speaker 1: you defend me? This, and I'm like, I don't even,
- 14:41Speaker 1: I don't even. I don't know why I said it.
- 14:45Speaker 1: I felt I said what I meant whatever, So it
- 14:47Speaker 1: was just became something that was just non stopped, non stop.
- 14:52Speaker 1: And then you have the people that you know are
- 14:56Speaker 1: obsessed with, you know, the fame and getting there, you know,
- 15:00Speaker 1: to having that moment or their face on the magazine
- 15:02Speaker 1: cover that'll do anything to take you down as long
- 15:06Speaker 1: as they shine. Okay, whether it be a truth or rely,
- 15:09Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. And I'm like, I'm too old for
- 15:12Speaker 1: this nonsense. You know, why are you doing this? So
- 15:15Speaker 1: what do you think the primary issue was with Teresa?
- 15:19Speaker 1: You just said that people let fame get to their head.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Was it that or what do you think kind of
- 15:24Speaker 1: triggered it for you? For Teresa myself? Yeah, our argument,
- 15:32Speaker 1: your guess is as good as mine. I don't know.
- 15:34Speaker 1: I think that if we're being honest, you know, back
- 15:39Speaker 1: in the day and I'm talking the heyday of Jersey,
- 15:43Speaker 1: it was Caroline Teresa, Caroline, Teresa, Caroline Teresa. That's who
- 15:46Speaker 1: everybody was talking about. And you know, she doesn't like
- 15:49Speaker 1: to share the light with anybody, and I think that
- 15:52Speaker 1: maybe that may have been a little bit of it,
- 15:54Speaker 1: but you're talking to somebody that truly doesn't give a shit,
- 15:57Speaker 1: Like I'm like, ahead, take the light, you want to
- 15:58Speaker 1: take it, let it shine roll. I could care less
- 16:02Speaker 1: because there's plenty about There's plenty of stuff out there
- 16:04Speaker 1: for everybody. That's what everybody forgets. We each have our
- 16:06Speaker 1: own demographic and we each have our own people that
- 16:08Speaker 1: are gonna like us, dislike us, and there's plenty to share,
- 16:11Speaker 1: so everybody could eat. But I don't think she yet
- 16:15Speaker 1: because a lot of the fans were saying they thought
- 16:18Speaker 1: it was because of what happened off camera and Punta
- 16:22Speaker 1: Cana where Teresa was spraying champagne on people and your
- 16:26Speaker 1: boys got upset about it. That does that, haven't I
- 16:30Speaker 1: got upset about it? Was she was spraying. We were
- 16:34Speaker 1: Punta Cana and she there was this big bottle of champagne,
- 16:38Speaker 1: and I remember I was standing in the front, she
- 16:40Speaker 1: was behind me, and all of a sudden, I I'm soaked.
- 16:43Speaker 1: I don't know why am I all wet? And then
- 16:45Speaker 1: I realized she sprayed champagne onto the ground in the
- 16:50Speaker 1: club and there were patrons there that took offense to it.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Um one thing led to another before you know it
- 17:00Speaker 1: is a brawl. Oh my, so we chained in Puntakana.
- 17:07Speaker 1: I forgot about that. My boys pass sports revoked and
- 17:12Speaker 1: we said for a week. So you know, it's just
- 17:16Speaker 1: that behavior over and over again. It's it's just a
- 17:20Speaker 1: it's a constant bad behavior that's not bad behavior continuously
- 17:25Speaker 1: is rewarded over and over and over again. And that's
- 17:29Speaker 1: the problem. You don't see that a lot. Yeah, so
- 17:32Speaker 1: to say the Least Housewives was not your jam, but
- 17:35Speaker 1: then you did move on to Man's Own with Children?
- 17:38Speaker 1: Yea three seasons? How was that different? Was that fun
- 17:41Speaker 1: to do? Or I miss Manson with Children terribly? Oh?
- 17:46Speaker 1: We had We had fun. And who's better than me
- 17:49Speaker 1: to be able to do fun things and have my
- 17:51Speaker 1: husband and children with me. You know, that was a gift.
- 17:55Speaker 1: And it's a big deal to have your own spin
- 17:57Speaker 1: off like that, to have your own family show. It's
- 18:00Speaker 1: not easy. And she was one of the only people
- 18:02Speaker 1: to get a multi season spin off about it. There
- 18:07Speaker 1: is Kim. I mean, yeah Kim and yeah Kim. That
- 18:10Speaker 1: was so successful, But the that went off the three
- 18:13Speaker 1: season it's the biggest mystery to me because the ratings
- 18:16Speaker 1: were great, and we were like, why was it canceled?
- 18:21Speaker 1: You know, give you any answer to that? I think
- 18:23Speaker 1: they kind of said we were, in so many words,
- 18:25Speaker 1: we were too normal. That's not a horrible thing. You know,
- 18:30Speaker 1: when people act like normal is the worst thing. Um.
- 18:34Speaker 1: Bringing it back to another one of your shows, the
- 18:36Speaker 1: Cooking Show. If you had to pick to have one
- 18:40Speaker 1: of these two people on to cook with you, would
- 18:44Speaker 1: it be Teresa or Daniel stab Um hm, Teresa. Who

- 19:43Speaker 1: does not want her to get it. Right. You know
- 19:44Speaker 1: they're they're's such a it's the family dynamic there is
- 19:47Speaker 1: so unusual, but it works for them. And you know,
- 19:50Speaker 1: I always say that she should write a book on
- 19:52Speaker 1: how to divorce properly because I remember way way back
- 19:56Speaker 1: in the beginning when things weren't great between them and
- 20:00Speaker 1: and how they'll help fall. They've come and they really
- 20:02Speaker 1: I think that's one of the great things about you
- 20:05Speaker 1: know when you say reality TV, that they could put
- 20:08Speaker 1: this relationship out there and say, you know what, even
- 20:10Speaker 1: though you get divorce, doesn't mean you have to be
- 20:12Speaker 1: bitter enemies. Yeah, it's refreshing because it's usually the opposite.
- 20:15Speaker 1: They hate each other, they can't be around each other.
- 20:18Speaker 1: Do you currently watch the show? I have not watched
- 20:21Speaker 1: anything has Wife since I left. I always say, why
- 20:25Speaker 1: would I Why would I aggravate myself for free? You
- 20:27Speaker 1: know what I mean? True? Yeah? True? Can you help
- 20:32Speaker 1: us because this is where I'm a little bit lost
- 20:34Speaker 1: and we're trying to go back and forth because this season,
- 20:37Speaker 1: I know you don't watch, but there's so many discussions
- 20:40Speaker 1: about people who are not on the show, whether they
- 20:42Speaker 1: were friends on the show, to be on the show,
- 20:44Speaker 1: whatever it may be. But I am still a little
- 20:47Speaker 1: bit confused on the insight between what happened with Dina
- 20:51Speaker 1: and Dolores, because no, I'm not gonna talk about We're
- 20:57Speaker 1: not gonna talk about it. Oh my god. We don't
- 21:01Speaker 1: need a little player, please, Like I said, look at
- 21:07Speaker 1: agavate for free. Well that's what I do. I have
- 21:11Speaker 1: a million dollars question, But my question is if it
- 21:15Speaker 1: was reversed. Did you hear that it was going to
- 21:18Speaker 1: be Dina as a bridesmaid and then all of a
- 21:20Speaker 1: sudden when Dina was no longer a bridesmaid? Then she
- 21:23Speaker 1: asked Alris that was this week's episode? Tersa did okay? Yeah,
- 21:30Speaker 1: so yes, and was a bridesmaid? Yes? Yes, I did hear.
- 21:35Speaker 1: I know I did hear recently for somebody that knows
- 21:39Speaker 1: both of them that it was more about Dina not
- 21:42Speaker 1: wanting to film. Okay, that's what I heard, So it
- 21:46Speaker 1: wasn't a fall out, Caroline responding with that's just what
- 21:51Speaker 1: I had. So you know, you know, Caroline, I have
- 21:54Speaker 1: Dina that lives a mile away from me, and Jacqueline
- 21:57Speaker 1: that's moving by me. Okay, I I know Jackylin's going
- 22:01Speaker 1: did she get a house yet? I don't even know
- 22:03Speaker 1: if she got I. I just talked to her yesterday.
- 22:05Speaker 1: She found a house that they Chris found a house
- 22:07Speaker 1: that he really likes, and she says she trust her husband.
- 22:09Speaker 1: So I'm excited for her to move. We're already talking about.
- 22:13Speaker 1: I keep joking with her. I'm like, I can't wait
- 22:14Speaker 1: to have the first housewife party at your house. And
- 22:16Speaker 1: she's like, it ain't happening. Oh it will. Jackyline cut
- 22:20Speaker 1: in her life and I said, oh, you're fold, you'll
- 22:22Speaker 1: fold you She'll fold for sure. Yeah. Yeah. If she's
- 22:26Speaker 1: doing all these podcasts, I feel like she'll fold, yeah,
- 22:29Speaker 1: Jack And she Yeah, that's her thing. Jackelin's always done
- 22:35Speaker 1: well podcasts like I'm Selective and stuff like, and she
- 22:38Speaker 1: has her own podcast too, so yeah, that's her thing.
- 22:42Speaker 1: She loves to talk to people and she'll do it
- 22:44Speaker 1: to aviews because she gets a kick as she's a
- 22:45Speaker 1: people person. So um, oh she is for sure. Yeah,
- 22:49Speaker 1: I love her. Well, what about what did you think
- 22:51Speaker 1: about her hanging out with Teresa. I thought it was great.
- 22:55Speaker 1: I think it's great. I think that they really missed
- 22:57Speaker 1: each other. And that's where the venom came from, because
- 23:01Speaker 1: it came from a place of hurt um. They really were,
- 23:05Speaker 1: you know, very very good friends, and as you girls know,
- 23:09Speaker 1: the show gets in the way of relationships a lot,
- 23:12Speaker 1: and I think that that it was a casualty of
- 23:14Speaker 1: the show. And I'm happy that they're back together, and
- 23:17Speaker 1: I hope it remains that way, and I hope that
- 23:19Speaker 1: they don't want the nonsense get in the way of things,
- 23:21Speaker 1: because they truly were very good friends. I'm happy for
- 23:24Speaker 1: the boat. Do you seem like you have a really
- 23:26Speaker 1: like a good heart. I'm like talking to you. I'm
- 23:29Speaker 1: not the monster, they say, I am. Oh my god,
- 23:33Speaker 1: I only play an asshole on TV. Yeah, that's what
- 23:37Speaker 1: I tell people. Speaking of playing, do you still play
- 23:40Speaker 1: the ham game? We do not. That was Oh my god,
- 23:44Speaker 1: I forgot about that. That was My children have full
- 23:48Speaker 1: blown adults there. They have place coming up Laurence thirty
- 23:53Speaker 1: five next week, and then my boys are gonna be
- 23:55Speaker 1: thirty four and thirty seven. Oh my god, tell us
- 23:59Speaker 1: what they're doing? What are they up to? They there
- 24:01Speaker 1: were a lot of good things. The boys are very
- 24:03Speaker 1: very busy. They have a hospitality groups with restaurants and stuff.
- 24:07Speaker 1: So we have a couple of really big projects. What
- 24:09Speaker 1: they do. I say, way, but they have a couple
- 24:11Speaker 1: of really big projects in the summer down the shore.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Lawrence got to of course our business appear. And the
- 24:17Speaker 1: baby's six. So everybody's doing this thing. They're world grown up.

- 24:23Speaker 1: grown adults doing adult things. Does she want more kids? No? No,
- 24:29Speaker 1: no one and done morning, done with her. I'm sorry
- 24:32Speaker 1: for that, but okay, whatever, Well your boys, your boys
- 24:36Speaker 1: will have kids, we'll see. Not my business. I let
- 24:38Speaker 1: them do it. That's another thing. People think, Oh, I'm
- 24:40Speaker 1: up well up, like I don't know. I don't want
- 24:43Speaker 1: anything about them what they want to tell me, I
- 24:45Speaker 1: listen to not live your life? Right? How far away
- 24:49Speaker 1: do all of you guys live in Jersey? Like when
- 24:53Speaker 1: you were all you know, when you were on the show.
- 24:55Speaker 1: But even now I can't figure out because I haven't
- 24:57Speaker 1: been to Jersey that often. Like is it a small
- 25:00Speaker 1: like in Beverly Hills or Orange County. Everybody's all over
- 25:04Speaker 1: the place, right, Like, is it the same in Jersey?
- 25:07Speaker 1: Are you guys all kind of in the same area. No,
- 25:09Speaker 1: Jersey has little pocket areas, so you could like, like,
- 25:12Speaker 1: let's say, for instance, Dina me and Jacqueline were all
- 25:18Speaker 1: within a half mile of each other, so we could
- 25:19Speaker 1: literally walk to each other's house in a row. We
- 25:22Speaker 1: were one, two, three, and at that time when when
- 25:26Speaker 1: Kathy built her house, she was two. Could sucks now
- 25:29Speaker 1: so I could walk to Jack Kathy's house. Now she
- 25:33Speaker 1: just moved to where Joel Melissa get live and that's
- 25:37Speaker 1: probably about a mile and a half away from me.
- 25:41Speaker 1: So everybody's relatively how far is Polly? Because we see
- 25:44Speaker 1: his house it's so amazing, but you look at the
- 25:46Speaker 1: back and it's overlooking water. Well, he's on the Hudson,
- 25:51Speaker 1: so he's about a half hour away. I figured he
- 25:55Speaker 1: was little ways away because it looked different. Do you
- 25:58Speaker 1: think he's the most of fluent one now, oh Polly? Yeah,
- 26:03Speaker 1: we're trying to I don't know the other. I don't know.
- 26:08Speaker 1: I don't know. There's Joe. I mean, you don't know.
- 26:12Speaker 1: What do you mean you don't search their net worth
- 26:14Speaker 1: on the fair time? I don't know. Um, so you're
- 26:19Speaker 1: asking of the crew I know, I don't. I don't know.
- 26:21Speaker 1: I know that Polly does well, yes, um it looks
- 26:25Speaker 1: like he does. So have you who when you were
- 26:27Speaker 1: at Bravo con was there any housewife that you were like,
- 26:30Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I love her that you hadn't met before,
- 26:33Speaker 1: And was there anybody that kind of left date not
- 26:36Speaker 1: the best taste in your mouth? Bravo? Con was a
- 26:39Speaker 1: blessed love. Bravo. Con Um No. I was shocked at
- 26:45Speaker 1: all the young kids coming to me and they were
- 26:48Speaker 1: literally doing this to me, which my mind, because you
- 26:52Speaker 1: don't think of yourself that way, you know when you
- 26:54Speaker 1: think of that Timber were pioneers, Yeah, franchise, so you
- 27:00Speaker 1: don't think what it means to the young ones coming
- 27:02Speaker 1: in a bad taste. No, you know how it is?
- 27:06Speaker 1: He did turn around every ten feet is a story
- 27:09Speaker 1: to be told, you know, if you just watch and
- 27:11Speaker 1: listen enough. I told you know, my son's told Andy.
- 27:15Speaker 1: They said you made a mistake by not having I
- 27:18Speaker 1: don't think they. I don't know if it was Andy.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Just so many productions at that hotel. This should be
- 27:23Speaker 1: cameras rolling twenty four seven, Oh for sure. Yeah, there
- 27:28Speaker 1: was so much shit going on down at that bar.
- 27:31Speaker 1: I know that was the place to be. Um, would
- 27:34Speaker 1: you go again this year? I'm not sure. I don't know.
- 27:39Speaker 1: I mean, didn't you tell me that was it your
- 27:41Speaker 1: sister in law you were with was mistaken for me.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Oh no, that was Alby's girlfriend's mother, and everybody ming
- 27:50Speaker 1: camera at her. She looks up, You're built to like
- 27:53Speaker 1: you look alike. She just started going with it by
- 27:56Speaker 1: the issue was way so I guess something that was
- 28:03Speaker 1: with me they were so maybe they're together doing something. Yeah,
- 28:07Speaker 1: it was fun. It's so funny. Um, if I know,
- 28:09Speaker 1: we want to give a little bit of time, but
- 28:11Speaker 1: we want to talk a little bit more about your
- 28:12Speaker 1: cooking show. If you were going to have me and
- 28:15Speaker 1: Tamera on, what would you have us? What would we
- 28:18Speaker 1: cook too? Well, I don't I don't know what kind
- 28:21Speaker 1: of cooks I'll see. I would want you're terrible. I
- 28:24Speaker 1: would speak for yourself. I would want you to do
- 28:27Speaker 1: something that's from your culture, that means something to you
- 28:32Speaker 1: when you were growing up. That's what I tried to want.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Like last night, Isaac Zrahi came, but we wound up
- 28:37Speaker 1: just bullshitting and talking about stuff and I made a
- 28:39Speaker 1: quick pasta prima era. But what I want to do
- 28:42Speaker 1: is like what makes you smile, Like what makes your
- 28:46Speaker 1: heart happy as far as food goes, And that's what
- 28:48Speaker 1: I sign from your childhood that brings you there. My
- 28:54Speaker 1: mom makes this smash chicken, like flat and chicken with
- 28:58Speaker 1: like bread crumbs on it, and like still to this day,
- 29:02Speaker 1: whenever she comes into town, she's like, do you want
- 29:04Speaker 1: me to make it? And I'm like please, it's the
- 29:07Speaker 1: only time I have it, like smashed rick and then
- 29:09Speaker 1: she does mashed potatoes and like green bean casserole. But
- 29:15Speaker 1: now face, look at your face as you're talking about it. Yeah,
- 29:18Speaker 1: like you got it. The smile loess of emotions. So
- 29:21Speaker 1: that's what I'm trying to say, Like with food, that
- 29:23Speaker 1: food even it's fun and it's an emotion, so it
- 29:26Speaker 1: brings you back to a lot of things. So that's
- 29:28Speaker 1: what I'm going to try to do with my guesses.
- 29:29Speaker 1: No you cook something, you cook something for me that
- 29:32Speaker 1: means something to you. So yeah, I've always wanted to
- 29:36Speaker 1: know how to make spaghetti sauce. I've never made it
- 29:38Speaker 1: from scratch ever. Really so easy, so easy. My mom
- 29:42Speaker 1: used to make it when we were kids and it
- 29:44Speaker 1: was so good. But I'm like, you're like, rows here
- 29:48Speaker 1: we go. No what And if that makes you happy,
- 29:50Speaker 1: throw a little wine and throw a little gallic doctor
- 29:53Speaker 1: it up in a cool at a day and it'll
- 29:54Speaker 1: be fun. I've done that before, but I want to
- 29:56Speaker 1: make it from scratch. That's what I want to do. Well,
- 29:58Speaker 1: one day we will. It's very easy. Your town, come over,
- 30:01Speaker 1: we'll cook. I want to be you. You could do
