  Speaker 1: Drama, darling. Drama, darling. Drama, darling.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Greetings, everyone. We are about to drop the diss track
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: of a lifetime Deanna Chang and I on how badly
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: good this episode was of Salt Lake City. Deanna Sheng,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: welcome in.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Thank you. I mean, it was a bit of a
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: fever dream at the end there.
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: I didn't know what was happening.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I was like, did I have a gummy? I don't
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: think I did, but this is amazing. I was laughing.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: So I was laughing out loud. I chuckled out loud.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: That is very rare. The way that these editors and, oh,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I mean the camera crew, they outdid themselves with the
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: panning up and down of these gold jumpsuit outfits of
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Lisa and Meredith during their diss track. And the edits,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: the clean edits, Bronwyn being so devastated over literally like nothing,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: but also it was pretty rude. I can't wait to
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: get into this. It's so great. Deanna?
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't not rude, but her reaction... It was
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: too much. Listen, this episode, I had a lot of
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: cues around Bronwyn. I was like.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, cues. A lot of them.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I think you're strange.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: I'm tired. It's just like, when you get... Ingredients together.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Ingrediences, yeah.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: When you get those ingredients and you put them in
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: that pot and then they make a gorgeous, a gorgeous meal.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Like a sweet, spicy.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: How would Teresa kind of say that? I'm just curious.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: I look around and I see this person's coming and
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: this person's card man and this person's tarragon man. It's
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: like you get all these spices, you put them in
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: a pot, and then they're making a good dish.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? It is just chef's kiss.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: I do. Wow. It was so many things. First of all,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: I do want to just say, like, Salt Lake City maintains.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: It stays in high school. It has always been in
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: high school.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, great point. Yeah.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Beyond any other franchise, I am so aware of, like,
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: the high school hierarchy of this show.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: You know, it is such a great framing of the, like,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: the mental state over there. Yes.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You know, yeah, absolutely.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Jeez.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Phenomenal. And they really keep giving. This Meredith and Lisa
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: duo is at its climax right now. We're seeing something.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: That's firing on all cylinders. They are connecting and they're
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: vibing with the producers and the editors to make art
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: and beauty and humor and life and levity. So this
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: is their moment. And you know, did they take over
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the party? Absolutely. Was that the right time and the
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: right place? No, and it shouldn't be, right? It should
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: never be the right time.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Look, it's never been the right time and place. So
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: it's not going to start last night. That's certainly not
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: when we're going to have the right time and place.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Because you are hard-pressed to find a time and place
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: that are right on these shows. It's very rare. I
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: don't know the last time I've seen it.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh. I mean, I know we're going to
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: go through the whole episode, but it's just too rich
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: to not jump into this performance that we got our
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: eyes on. The glam kittens... And that they, because, so
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: they obviously throughout this trip, once they were called out
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: at some point by, I guess, Bronwyn about scheming or Brittany,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you know, Lisa had it in her head that it
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: was Bronwyn that said it first. But we really saw
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Brittany say it first because I didn't get my eyes
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: on Bronwyn saying that they were scheming. Did you? Because
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I only saw Brittany on the Sprinter van say it.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: That's all we got to see. But then I'm like,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: maybe there was a time that wasn't caught on film
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: that we missed.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm gathering.
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: Because Lisa seems so sure.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: That I was like, oh, maybe we didn't catch it.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I believe her on this, you know? Like, I have
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: to believe her. I mean, because, yeah, she seemed to
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: have it clocked pretty good. And I also can see
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Brittany just echoing the sentiment.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: You know, she's, ooh, does she bug? But, you know,
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: what are we going to do? It's just, she is
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: just such a little.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: She bugs and then you do feel bad for her,
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: like that little freshman, you know, when she gets, she
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: didn't ask to be roasted after this diss track by Bronwyn.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Bronwyn got up there.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: That was a. Wow. That was a blind side, as
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: they have in, like, Survivor. You know, that was a
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: true blind side.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: It was a Survivor blind side. She caught a stray
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: on that bad.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, bad. She was like... She's like... It was like
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: a cartoon, like.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: She tried to take it in stride because she very
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: much had Bronwyn's back. So it was like... But I
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: thought that we... But when I was... Oh.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: And Bronwyn was like.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Like, okay. I don't... Bronwyn was trying to make up for.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Everything was like so crazy.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Bronwyn was trying... I.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Don't know what she... Trying to get the last word.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah. She had to release something onto someone and that
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: little chickadee was just ripe for the.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Little sister, you know?
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Little sister. That's what it is. She got... she was
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: she had to be kind of a little bit of
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: a lamb in that situation right for bronwyn and she's
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: like oh just kidding and then i don't know but
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: then also after bronwyn does that speech and she gets
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: down and like everyone's kind of recollecting themselves at the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: party to hear a One more time from the back.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: I have in all caps an encore. What is happening?
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: Like it just.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: And right above that, it's Britney taking an L.
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: It's just there.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: It was giving like it was giving Kenya more hair
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: care marching band with this one more time. That's– and
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the whole performance in itself, actually. It really was. It
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: was beautiful.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: And it did seem– now, I don't know who those
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: people were. They did seem part of the party.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Well, you mean the people who were, like, joining in
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: the song?
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: They were joining– they were– I'll tell you who they were.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: They were Housewives fans.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: Even if they were Bronwyn's friends, they were diehard Housewives fans,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: and they were ready to party.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: Housewives fans first and Bronwyn friends second. And that's just
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: the way the cookie crumbled.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I don't think they even knew.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: It was bad.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: They didn't know it was bad. Right? Yeah. I think
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: we've all been there when we're younger, like in high school,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: for example, and you're chanting along to something, but you
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: don't know what it actually means. You find out later.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: It's actually incredibly disrespectful to A culture or– I'm kidding. No,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: but you don't– I mean, honestly, like you just don't know.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: There is an elementary school chant that is coming up
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: for me right now where we in fourth grade would
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: march around. One of the girls had scoliosis, okay?
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: We would march around and go, she's got scoliosis.
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: What the heck is scoliosis?
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: She's got scoliosis.
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: What the heck is– it's.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I'm crying right now.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: This is exactly what i'm talking about yeah and you
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: didn't know no.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: Right what the heck is scoliosis was my you know
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: we all didn't know at that time you're just trying
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: to wrap your little heads around it yeah oh yeah
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: conga line.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I wish i could think of one i know there
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: have been many i just probably blocked it out but
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: um But that's the thing. It's like, you know, you're
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: just you're vibing with the energy more than the actual
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: statement itself. And so, you know, they're thinking, oh, everyone's
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: behind this. This is the new drop that Meredith is bringing.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: But like the words hypocrisy and bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: And then I'm born. And then ending with an impromptu. Manipulation.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Manipulation. Oh, my God. Now, this is the thing that
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: I have to just go, okay, you know, I'm not
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: afraid to sit down and take pen to paper and
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: write a rap song. I did one for Steve Jobs.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: I did one for Colty and 90 Day Fiance. These
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: are just things that have happened in my life where
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: I've taken to the pen to the paper and.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Gotten down to it. Oh, drop those hits, honey. And
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: I will.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: And I will. And they are thought through.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: They are melodic. Well, God, yeah.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: They are good.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: You're coming from the montage queen herself. She's going to
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: assemble something fierce.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: She's going to assemble.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: Something, okay? The fact that they got on this national
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: television platform and put together four words and called it
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: a song.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Four words.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: In some ways, I have to tip the hat. It's like,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: you know?
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: When you got something, you got something. Sometimes, the more
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: simple it is, the catchier it is. I mean, look
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: how those people jumped onto it. hypocrisy and bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, I am singing it right now in the shower.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: And I think Lisa, you know, Lisa Barlow has said
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: many a times. And in fact, on this episode, how she's,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: she's been a rapper. No one can do salt and
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: pepper like her.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: No one.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: And well, as I said before, I believe her. I
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: don't believe her on that, but like, I'm also got a,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: I respect the fact that at the very end, the
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Glam Kittens, along with their brand, Lisa pulled out a
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: lip liner, I don't know from where, and lip lined
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: her lips at the very end of the song, which
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: I thought was beautiful. And then Meredith heading into the
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: crowd saying, who wants a bump?
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Wow. You can't, listen, the Glam Kittens was, that was
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: a great title.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: It was great. Like this is what you get when
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: you have two people getting along and just goofing about. Right.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Because like you're getting stupid, goofy things that you're laughing about.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: And that is the key to success. Do what you
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: think is funny. Do what you think is good. Because
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: if you're enjoying it and you believe in it, it
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter what it is that you're doing as long
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: as you're doing what you're doing. people will follow.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: These are life lessons. And also, you know, we have
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: to remember that we are factoring in, as we are
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: taking in these moments, we are factoring in what Lisa
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: went through on Ultimate Girls Trip.
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: I kept thinking about that too, Deanna. Extremely important to
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: cross-reference the other materials.
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: That's right. Without it, I would have a different feeling
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: about this moment. But I do think these girls have
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: been rotted to her. And on this program, they seem
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: more in the right.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they do.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: But on our other program, they were absolutely relentless and terrible.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: And I'm also enjoying Lisa specifically. The way she is leaving...
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: And entering.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Entrances and exits, you know? She's selling. And she's free.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: And that's what we like to see. On Ultimate Girls Trip,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: she was an imprisoned housewife struggling to have a good time.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Whereas here, there's no struggle at all. She's unabashedly, unequivocally,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: undeniably having the best time of her life. Because she
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: has an ally in Meredith Marks. And that's the difference.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: As long as you have the backup and you have
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: someone you can do this with, you can do anything. Yeah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: And listen, on Ultimate Girls Trip, she was having a
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: blast until these ne'er-do-wells were flanking her and showing up
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: literally every city. There they go.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God. You know? They were heavy bookends following
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: her around, smashing her.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: It was psychotic. They were everywhere. They were in Beverly Hills.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: They were in Atlanta.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: They were probably outside of The Quiet Woman, for God's sakes.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: They probably were even there before they even got... They
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: probably were. Who knows? Bluestone Manor. We had this whole season,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: and then it ending up with Andy in the middle
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: of them.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Crazy.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: It is crazy.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Crazy.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: So.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: I do think she learned from Ultimate Girls Trip that, like,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: because she's been in this Mormon bubble, and she broke out.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: She made new friends. They love her. They had her back.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Teresa had her back. They all had her back.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Are you okay?
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I'm just coming over here to make sure you're okay. But,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: you know, Teresa was.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: There's also a clip that I didn't see in real time,
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: which I've seen online, which is like the best. If
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: you haven't seen it, please find it. Where when they're
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: outside for the fireworks and the snow, someone threw a
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: little snowball and you have Teresa joyfully pelting Heather with snowballs.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know she threw it. I remember her
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: with the snow.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Heather.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: She's getting Heather. Oh my, that's hysterical.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: And with glee. It's amazing.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: That's incredible. That's freedom. You know, that is a friend. So,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Lisa's taking that. You can leave the snow outside. Don't
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: bring it outside. Leave your fumes and your snowballs outside.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Don't bring it in. Okay? Because the ice, it melts
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: in the water. It gets all over the water. And
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: then you clean it up. And then you make snow.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Good.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: And I love it. Now, when Bronwyn does her original speech,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: when she's out there, she's like, I just want to
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: explain who I am and where I'm from. Now, Lisa
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: and Meredith are making Bronwyn look like some kind of
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: compulsive liar because they're just like, I don't think she
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: grew up here. She spent her childhood in Amsterdam. This
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: is confusing. And Lisa just like always, always lying, always Bronwyn-ing.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Who is she? It's like, They are putting her on
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: blast like Muppets up in the balcony.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: They really are.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Statler and... Here's the thing. I always get Benson and
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Stabler from Law & Order SVU and then... Waldorf and Statler. Those,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I always get them. The four of them get muted.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: I like that for us.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Anyway... So they're just sitting there with their comments and
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: God bless the crew for picking up that audio and
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: just threading it through to make it a beautiful scene.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: And Bronwyn, what I found so, first of all, it's
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: so hard to go through times with these people where
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: you're up and then you're down. You know, they come on,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: you're tickled, you're delighted, you're inspired, you're alive.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Even from her striped red and white shoes alone.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, God.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Right. And it's fun and it's frothy and we're having
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: a great time and.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: She's a fave.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: Frothy.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: And then we're here and she's speaking almost in my opinion,
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I believe that being back in San Francisco, it got
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: away from her. Emotions got away from her. Her control
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: over the narrative got away from her a bit, in
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: my opinion. And I think she revealed more than maybe
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: she intended to about how she's sort of been plotting
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: this exit from her husband and how this new guy,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: like I find the Brandon of it all so strange.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: Not that she shouldn't be with him, but the fact
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: that she's trotting him out.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. To go and revisit a great time in
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: your life. That has to do with your estranged husband.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: And to go down memory lane to reconnect with all
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the people in your life from that time and collect
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: them all in one place and then bring your boyfriend
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: there amid your separation, negotiations, all this stuff is a
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: very weird move. And then like, I did love what she,
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: I got to say, I did appreciate what she was sharing.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Seeing her on the boat and talking about how this
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: was such a great time in her life and She's like,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: I hope you guys can understand who I am and why.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: And I think that people did kind of understand, but
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: it was more really for us, like for us to
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: see her, I don't know, in that location and maybe
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: free to open up about that time in her life,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: I suppose. But it also seemed pretty pivotal for her
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: life at that point to go back and revisit the
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: life before so that she could leave it behind. Because
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: when she said on the boat, I've burned everything to
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: the ground so that I can start again. And I,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: you know, fingers crossed, was an incredible statement to make.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: And it is kind of true with any real relationship
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: that you've been in for a very long period of
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: time where the roots are deep. It is like burning
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: everything to the ground when you decide to leave. But
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: she's over-accessorizing the situation.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: In a way.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: She's doing that in real time with, The scenario and
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: the people, and it's so much that I... just am like,
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: I don't think you're doing yourself any favors here because
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: in the end, it's it will. explode and it is
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: kind of reckless it seems like i mean even heather
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: in her confessionals like why is bronwyn doing all this
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: you know trotting him around i mean heather is really
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: the only person who's saying it's weird that she's bringing
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: brandon around in the middle of all of this that's
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: happening with todd well it's.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Just they are not established enough for this I feel
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: she was so over her skis.
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: At that party, she was like, this is really weird.
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: This is really crazy.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: There's so much.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: I'm really feeling overwhelmed.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: It's like the Salesforce 5 or whatever the hell. Where
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: did she work in finance? She worked in one market
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: and Salesforce Tower.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: They're all there.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: It's like Joan from accounting. There's so many.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: There's so many Jones from accounting there that are like,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: thanks for the invite. Should I stay? Do you want
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: to keep in touch? No, we're good. Just want to
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: see you one more time before you're dead to me.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Right. This is just for this moment. And I want
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: to show you I'm a housewife now.
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: How crazy is that? And I have a hot boyfriend.
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: How crazy is that?
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: But she got into that party that was a concept.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: A concept that was built.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Versus reality.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Reality. And so she just was so unhinged emotionally.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: I felt her going crazy at that party.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: No wonder she was set off by the diss track
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: because it wasn't about the diss track. It was about
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: what she had created and what she's going through in
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: her life right now. And no wonder it was overwhelming.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, anybody in that situation would probably crack.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's too much. It's unnecessary. And you're trying
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: to prove something to yourself that you haven't gotten to yet.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean? There was just something
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: about putting the cart before the horse on this. Like
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: she's like, if this is successful, I can do this.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: I don't have a home. I've burned it down to
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: the ground. But this is the new me. And I'm
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: going to present it all like a debutante ball. It's
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: like this is my coming out party.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Where I'm presenting myself to society again.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: This new version of me where I always wanted to
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: be free from him and I'm reaching to the highest,
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't know.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: It all felt very insane to me.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Because like that party, if that was the intention, which
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: I think what you're saying makes sense to me, like
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: in her mind, the concept of it. What it was,
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: the symbolism. Yes. the underlying foundation of the old, and
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: then bringing in the new, meaning the housewives and Brandon
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: with this old version of herself. That is such a
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: mind F. I don't know who could possibly handle that.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: And so for her to think that it was all
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: going to go down well seems like insane to me. Darlings,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: you know I've been talking about one skin for a
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: while now, and there's a reason I keep coming back
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: to it. Because when it comes to skincare, I've reached
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: an age where I am no longer interested in empty promises.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: I want results. And more importantly, I want science. Because listen,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: I love a gorgeous jar of moisturizer as much as
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: the next woman, but what's actually in the jar? Is
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: it doing anything? Or am I just paying $ 150 for
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: nice packaging and an okay fragrance? That's what makes OneSkin
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: so different. OneSkin was founded by female PhD scientists who
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: specialize in longevity research. And they wanted to know, instead
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: of just covering up the visible signs of aging, what
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: if we could actually address what's causing them? We're talking
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: about something called senescent cells, or what scientists sometimes call
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: zombie cells, which first of all sounds terrifying... I don't
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: need zombies living on my face. I've got enough problems.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: These are damaged cells that accumulate as we age and
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: contribute to things like fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: OS1 is proven to switch off zombie cells and slow
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: skin aging directly at the source. So there you have it.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: OneSkin developed their proprietary OS1 peptide designed to target these
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: aging-related processes at the cellular level and help support healthier-looking skin.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: And here's what I love. I've been using their OS1
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: Face Topical Supplement consistently, and my skin genuinely feels more balanced.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: I've also noticed a reduction in the appearance of my
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: fine lines. I've said this before, but it's worth repeating.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: One Skin is the first moisturizer I've ever used that
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: understands my skin. It works just beautifully with my routine.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I don't need 17 different serums, a chemistry degree, and
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: countless hours in front of the mirror. No, I just
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: want to take care of my face the right way.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: And this isn't just marketing hype, darlings. OneSkin has four
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: peer-reviewed clinical studies supporting its research, more than 10,000 five-star reviews,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: and has even been featured by Bloomberg for its work
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: in skin longevity. I love knowing that there's serious research
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: behind something I'm putting on my face every single day.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Born from over a decade of longevity research, OneSkin's OS1
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: peptide is designed to target the visible signs of aging
• 25:17

• 25:42
  Speaker 2: We need to talk about boobs again, okay? Because if
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: you've been listening to this podcast, you know how much
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: I love Honey Love. And I have to tell you
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: about another one of their bras, the X Balance Bra. Now,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: here's my problem with most wireless bras. They promise you comfort.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: And for the first hour, everything's great. You're feeling fine.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: You're feeling free. You're feeling relaxed. And you feel like
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: you've made a wonderful life decision. And then three hours later,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: your boobs have decided to move into one giant studio
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: apartment together. No walls, no privacy, no separation. It's the
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: worst nightmare living situation for your boobs, okay? It's uniboob apartment.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: And listen, I want comfort, but I also want my
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: boobs to have their own identities, okay? Their own personal space.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: Is that too much to ask? Well, apparently not. Because
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Honeylove has figured it out. Their X Balance Bra is wireless,
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: but it actually gives you support, lift, and separation, thanks
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: to this clever X design right in the center. And
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: I love that the cups are molded foam, so you
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: get a really nice shape without a bunch of extra
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: padding or bulk. The underband is designed to feel like
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: a soft hug instead of a death grip. And you've
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: got adjustable straps and a hook and eye closure in
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: the back, which I appreciate because I like to put
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: on my bras and take them off like a civilized woman.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I don't need to wrestle my way out of a
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: bra like I'm escaping Alcatraz. And here's the thing I
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: love about Honeylove. They are a female founded company. And
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: you can tell these products were designed by women who
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: actually wear bras. They understand what we want. They understand
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: we want to feel supported and comfortable, whether we're working,
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: running errands, taking a walk, sitting at our desks, watching
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: The Real Housewives in our bed for three hours. Honey
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Love also makes beautiful shapewear, tanks, bodysuits, and underwear. And
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: if you're looking to refresh your bra drawer, they even
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: have a crossover triple bra bundle so you can save
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: when you buy three. Darlings, we deserve comfort, we deserve support,
• 27:50

• 30:24
  Speaker 2: can we talk about desire for a minute? Because I
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: feel like nobody tells you that at a certain point
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: in life, getting in the mood sometimes requires your brain
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: to first shut down approximately 47 other tabs. Did I
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: answer that email? What does my daughter need for school tomorrow?
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Did I move the laundry? Why is it so hot
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: in this house? Am I having a hot flash? And
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: somewhere underneath all of that is your libido going, hey,
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: remember me? I'm also in perimenopause right now, so I
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: am very interested in anything that opens up a conversation
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: about women. Desire, stress, mood, and feeling connected to ourselves
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: as our bodies and lives change. That's why Dame's Desire
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Gummies caught my attention. They're a daily strawberry mango libido
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: supplement designed to work on some of the things that
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: can get in the way of desire, especially stress and mood.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: And what I really appreciate is that Dame didn't just
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: take a bunch of individual ingredients, point to separate studies,
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: and say, hey, trust us. They actually studied the finished
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: desire gummy formula in a four-week observational study with 53 women,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: shout out 53 women, who reported low desire and stressful lifestyles.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: And check out these results. Among participants reporting improvement, 85%
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: reported increased sexual desire, 87% reported reduced stress and anxiety,
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: and 93% reported improved mood. I like those numbers. The
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: formula includes sensorial ashwagandha, L-theanine, mucuna, shatavari, and adaptogens and
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: a calming amino acid working together on something I think
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: we can all agree is not exactly an aphrodisiac, stress.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: And this isn't a take a gummy and 20 minutes
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: later cue the Barry White situation. It's three gummies a day,
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: and the benefits are designed to build with consistent use.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Most women in the study who noticed changes saw them
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: within about two weeks, with desire continuing to improve through
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: week four. That's also why Dame recommends subscribing. Desire Gummies

• 32:45
  Speaker 2: we can't close all 47 tabs in our brain, but
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: perhaps we can make a little room for tab number 48. Oh, also,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: it should have been a title. It shouldn't have been
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: 70s party. It should have been how people have a
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: divorce party. I don't know what this would have been called,
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: but It should have had a title like a rebirth.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: It should have had a title like the old and
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: the new or like, I don't know, make new friends
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: but keep the old one as silver and the other
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: as gold, like a silver and gold party. Whatever it is.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: There we go.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: That's very cute.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you. I think I'll try that next time.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: And that would have worked for the glam kittens and
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: their gold, you know, that actually folds them in quite beautifully.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: But I think if she would have honestly put a
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: label on it as to what it actually was, it
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: would have made more sense to the viewers and to
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: her in a way.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: And to all the Jones.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, to all the Jones. Like a rebranding of what
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: we're looking at. It's a sort of a marriage between
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: an old life and a new life. One that she
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: loved and was so happy but doesn't want it back.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: And then one that she's living and is betting, you know,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: betting black, you know, on this and hoping that it
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: works out because as she was working the room, all
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: I could see was the same conversation with everyone going
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: with her fingers crossed going, well, let's hope it all,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: you know, it's what I'm hoping for. And I just,
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: I think it's, it's a little confusing for us because,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: you know, we're all different and the way that she's
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: handling it, who knows how any of us would, but
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: she's taking us along for the journey. So we're seeing
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: the sausage being made. We're seeing her in the middle
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: of the journey with this boyfriend, with her old people,
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: and we're all kind of like, all right, this is interesting.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: It's an interesting concept. It's just never really been done before, right?
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Like we've had our, right, we've
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: definitely had our renewals and we've had our parties where
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: people are presenting a time of their life.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: But this, I think without the ink dry on the divorce,
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: that's probably part of it. It's like that's not done yet.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: The cart just felt before the horse. But yes, does
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: it make it interesting to your point? Absolutely. Watching it
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: is like I felt out of my skin for her.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: I was just like, I also don't know what it means.
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: Does it mean when she says, will it all work out?
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: What does that mean?
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Well, that she can survive on her own after this
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: marriage and that the housewives will continue to carry her
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: through in her new career. And I don't know. That's
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: just my thought. Because like, why would you... Or that
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: she'll be happy leaving her marriage from Todd. It was
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: nice to understand that they... She was really happy. That
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: was beautiful. I loved it because it definitely punctures a
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: hole in the theory that people have about her, which
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: is like she married for money and she never really
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: loved him and all this stuff. And I do really
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: believe that she absolutely loved him and still loves him.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: and that they had a beautiful life at one point.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: So I do appreciate that. And if that's what she's
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: trying to prove, she, or show, I should say, I
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: don't mean to make it, you know, superficial. But if
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: that's what she's trying to show us, she was successful
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: at that. But, you know, I also forget Todd has
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: been running around, you know, on these dating apps in
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: other cities. So it's kind of like, well, at least
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: she's doing it front and center and not hiding it.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: But it's not to say it still isn't weird. It's
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: still like odd, but he's been doing it.
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: No, that's what she's doing. It's definitely good because I
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: feel like I'm sounding like pro-Todd, which I'm definitely not.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: And I have forgotten about the fact that he steps
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: out and that's been part of their relationship for a
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: really long time. I do think his money and his
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: status is, listen, Amy, do I think, That this has
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: been a part of her plan all along a little bit.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: Before Housewives?
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: A little bit. And that's okay. That's a lot of
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: people's plan.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: You know? It is.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: And you know what? Also part of his plan too. So.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: You know? That's the thing. Everyone's relationship is different. You
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: can have love. Yes. And an arrangement at the same time.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: Right. Even if you have an arrangement. I mean, I
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: don't know too many. I haven't had a courtside seat
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: to an arrangement, but it just feels like even if.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: You have one. Well, you have to do blowjobs to
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: get courtside seats. So if you want a referral, I
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: can do that for you.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, thank you.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Jazz tickets only, though.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: Jazz. I was trying to think of what is it?
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: It's jazzed.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: I don't think I know of many. I can certainly
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: count one, which is an arrangement. And that's still going strong.
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: Great. And I get, yeah, I can see where it
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: wears you down. You know, if you know what I mean? Like,
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: it's like this motherfucker. He really thinks who he is,
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: that he can be over here and over there embarrassing her.
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: And he's pulling numbers. I mean, yeah. Good God.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: And the whole thing about like coming on The Housewives,
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, that to me is absolutely, you know, a
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: contrived opportunity to leave, which I mean, it's brilliant. Look,
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: I hope more people do it because it's fascinating to watch.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: And that's why we watch this, you know. But again,
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: it's not like I'm saying that she never loved Todd
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: and that she shouldn't leave. She should. They should not
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: be together if they're like unhappy like this. And he's
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: such a jerk to her. And she doesn't speak out
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: and she doesn't speak up for herself. So then they
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: have this pattern and so on and so forth. But
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: I do appreciate hearing about how she and Todd, you know,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: during that time in San Francisco and Gwen and just
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: having a really good life together, it seemed like. so
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: yeah um yeah now she's yeah go ahead sorry.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: No she's just strange she's just an odd duck like
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: she is a unique little bird I don't necessarily trust
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: her that's all.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah no I hear you completely completely she's.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: Got a lot of ideas.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah love that fashion though I really do It's fun.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: It's so fun. It's so fun.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: It's fun.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: How about when Meredith is like after they go on
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: that boat, Meredith's like talking about how Heather is making
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: these accusations or I'm sorry, allegations. And then they're talking
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: about it at the party. And Meredith does her little confessional.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: She's like, no, it seems like Heather is calling me.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Bronwyn a whore, and her boyfriend is a paid escort.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: She needs her husband to support their lifestyle, and he's
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: a sex worker, and everyone is deaf, dumb, and blind,
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: and I'm appalled. You know, it's like, wait, slow your roll, Meredith, okay?
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Let's just, like, relax a minute. She really went for it.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: Sex worker really jolted us. You know, I wasn't... I was.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: I hurt my back. I slept weird. And then I
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: was like, huh? And I was like, ow, I tweaked
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: it again. It just was like, are you serious? Like
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: she just really, because she's a lawyer and she knows
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: how to take the smallest little crumb and turn it
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: into a full fledging, growing, bulky little seed, you know,
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: and just plants it and just waters it and watches
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: it grow. That's what she does. She slaps those big
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: terms on it. And she's got a case.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: Damn!
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: She did weave a case together quite quickly and quite
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: powerfully in that confessional. And I was like, oh, shit. Yeah.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: It's not going to work because she's not going to
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: be able to bring Bronwyn over to her side anytime
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: soon anyway. Because even if she's trying to separate or
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: cause problems between Heather and Bronwyn... On some level.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: It's not going to hold up in court because Bronwyn
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: is so over that diss track.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: That diss track. Yeah, that diss track is going to
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: be a hard recovery.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying I want to rewrite history, but the
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: right thing would have been to do a track about
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: Bronwyn and like being in San Francisco and just like
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: having fun instead of just this really random, vague hypocrisy
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: and bullshit. And then when Lisa's ass in the confessional, like... Like,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: who was that song about, Bronwyn?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: No, no.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: It was about everyone and everything and every, like, from B.C.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: to A.D. And everything that, wait, who's the founder of
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: Mormonism again? John, what's his toes?
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: Proctor? Proctor and Gamble.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Proctor.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: No, that's from The Crucible. No, we're so close. Anyway, whatever.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: John Johnson.
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: I'm going to look. Brigham Young, no. Joseph Smith?
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Joseph Smith. And Brigham Young, I think, was maybe
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: the next prophet. And then that's also a school. I
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: don't know, guys. I'm sorry. We don't have our full
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Mormon theology down. But I do love a Crucible reference.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: And you know I played Abigail when I was at
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. I got to play Abigail.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: What's up? Come on, Abigail. That's who I am. Really
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: amazing part. Who wants a bump? But anyway, yeah, I
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: don't even know what we're talking about anymore.
• 43:20
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: I want to go over the boat because I was
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: so worried about Angie. In her seasickness. And I knew
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: it was going to be a disaster. Those waters are
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: so rough up there. And after what she went through,
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: I immediately knew. And I said to myself, Angie, you
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: better get the fuck off that boat. And she had
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: to pay for it. And you know what? I am
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: just like Angie. Angie and I are simpatico when it
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: comes to our bodies and how they react when we
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: get in unbalanced waters. Because I have been there, my friend.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: And I'm going to tell you what. You would think
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: that it would stop once you get grounded and you're
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: on land, but it doesn't. It keeps going.
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Well, that we learned.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I was shocked. When it happened to me
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: the first time, I was on Lake Michigan, okay? I
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: was in Chicago. Some of my comedian friends, we were, like,
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: one of them was a sailor. We took out a boat.
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: He's just, you know, bolting through the waters at a
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: very fast pace. Thinking, oh, you know, he's living his
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: best life. He knows what's going on. And we're all like, huh,
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: I'm starting to feel a little weird, right? So then
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: we go and we anchor in this little cove. And
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: I am absolutely sicker than a dog. I could not
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: believe it. I could not stop throwing up. And finally,
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: when I got off onto dry land, I immediately felt
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: like better. I got home. I was sick for three days.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, no.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: I am not kidding you. Oh, shoot. Including that day.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say three days. So an additional two.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: An additional two days. And let me tell you what.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: I had an audition for Saturday Night Live the following week.
• 45:08
  Speaker 6: No.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: So that whole weekend when I should have been like rehearsing.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: It was so bad.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: You had an audition for Saturday Night Live. How fun.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I did it twice. Once when I was
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: in Chicago and then once in LA. Wow. But like
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: I could not believe. I was like, why isn't my
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: body snapping back? Do I have the flu or whatever?
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: But it just sometimes that happens to people.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: The equilibrium's off and it needs, it can't recalibrate.
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: No.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: Anyway, poor Angie. Oh my God.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: Oh my God.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: She couldn't go to the 70s party.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: I know. Part of me was like, you know, maybe
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: she needs to, the time to just like chill out
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: in the bed too. When she was, when they were
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: FaceTiming her and she was like, wait, I'm sorry, is everyone,
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: this was part of the fever dream of the episode.
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: She's like, wait, am I still on the phone? Like,
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: are you guys all talking with me or is this still?
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: It was just the crazy, yeah, it was just a
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: crazy app.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: That and then like the whole whale and Lisa in
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: her confessional being like.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: Whale, whale, whale.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: Lisa was doing whale sounds.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: And Meredith was like, I love whales.
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: I love whales.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: And then Lisa was like, you need whale jewelry. It just,
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: those two were like Luann and Sonia, you know?
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, keep it in the family.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: Just keep it right where we are.
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not going to go to like George Burns,
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: George and Gracie, but you know, it's, it's, it's up there.
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: But Lisa and Meredith, when they're like writing the song
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: and Lisa's like, I'm so glad I don't have a
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Broadway voice. And it's more like Beyonce. And Meredith's face
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: was like frozen in time, both physically and like mentally,
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: because she was like, I don't know how to respond
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: to that because neither is true.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Meredith is interesting because I do understand Lisa with Meredith.
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: Meredith to Lisa, and I don't even know how to
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: explain what I'm feeling, but it's different. It's like, I don't,
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: I'm like, Meredith, what do you think about Lisa? Do
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying?
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's not saying it out loud because they have
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: an allyship, but she does see a lot that she's
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: not saying, you know. She sees the delusion.
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: Like when that lipstick was lining.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: For 20 minutes. The time code on it was making
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: me laugh.
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: That was so good.
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: Meredith was like clocking it, thinking about it, having thoughts,
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: but she's not going to say it.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: No, she's not going to.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: It is such an alliance and I think that's what
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: we're seeing. I know we already made a survivor reference,
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: but this is a survivor alliance.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: You see something, you say nothing. You keep it to yourself.
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: Right. You're just going to It's Whitney's ball gag.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: She's like Whitney's ball gag in her mouth because she
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: sees it and she's like, I'm just going to keep
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: that to myself and then someone else will point it out.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: And listen, if you're Bronwyn, Bronwyn thought she did her
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: big one by sending them to a vibrator museum, right?
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: Okay. Do you not think you're going to get served
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: back anything, Ms. Bronwyn?
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you. You're absolutely right.
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 48:39
  Speaker 6: What happened?
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: That. You got served at your own party. So welcome in,
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: It's just, that's the way. That's the way of it.
• 48:50
  Speaker 4: It is.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: The party didn't have entertainment.
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: That's true. I thought it, I mean, Lisa, when they
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: get such a boring party, it did feel like a
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: fun party.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: I thought it did look like a great party too.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: I love the venue. I thought that the room was
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: filled out nicely, which typically in these Housewives parties, you're
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: seeing people that are in production or in the business
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: that are asked to be there and it's just like
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: so not organic. And like you said, we got to
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: see all the Jones in accounting. And I loved that.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: They were in their sequins. They were living their best life.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: It was great. So when they did get up there,
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: it did hit like a lead balloon. And it was like, whoa,
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: it's not the time and place. But as time went on.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: Their commitment.
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: It was electric.
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: They might as well have come out and said, we
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: rule the school. We rule the school.
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah? We rule the school.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: Say it again.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: We rule the school.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: A what?
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: You know, it's just.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: We rule the school.
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: Oh, Deanna, that's so good.
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: It's giving that, you know.
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: Oh, boy, it sure did. It sure did. I think
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: we can wrap it up. The last thing I want
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: to mention is that before Angie took to her bed
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: for the rest of the trip, you know, she pushed
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: it with Lisa on the boat by saying, like, the
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: golden ratio of lips should be one-third. The top lip
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: should be one-third. It was like, why are you fighting
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: this battle? You know, it's just, it doesn't need to be,
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: and look where it got you. Now you're puking over
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: the edge, okay? Because you couldn't follow up with what
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: would have happened later, you know? So I didn't appreciate that.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: But it was nice to hear Lisa say, I don't
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: have filler in my lips. And I've never thought she
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: did have filler. So- So take that.
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: I will tell you, when they did a flashback on Lisa,
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh, she has filler now.
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: But that's okay. It's okay.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: I'm fine with it. But seriously, she lied. And I'm
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: not saying like, what? A housewife lied. I genuinely believe
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: that she didn't have filler in her lips.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: She may not. She really may not. I think Lisa
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: has one of the most natural faces ever. on the
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: entire show and across all cities. She really is not
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: doing all that, which I love. Is Angie in a position?
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: It just doesn't seem right. But Lisa has, I will say,
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: and I do think It has to do with her
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: time in Ultimate Girls Trip, her status change, her invigoration.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: Speak on it.
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: She has been coming out with some one-liners in these
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: confessionals that are killing me. She's killing it.
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: She's killing.
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: She's really like, boom, boom. I'm getting her humor more.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: I think she's smarter than I anticipated or I've been
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: giving her credit for like, Even her doing the bitch
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: thing with her. By the way, that makeup crew, the
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: glam team with Lisa and Meredith when they did their
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: practice run and the glam team's just like.
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: Standing there awkwardly. Actually, I'm glad you mentioned that because
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: that was one of my favorite parts was their reaction
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: and watching them when Heather's like, I bet they rehearsed
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: this all night long. And then you see them.
• 52:50
  Speaker 4: And then you see him rehearsing and then yeah the
• 52:54
  Speaker 4: camera over to the the glam team like oh god
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: are they really gonna do this yeah.
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: And the glam team was like now what is this
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: about this is about like is there a right it's
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: just again i think they only heard maybe two words
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: maybe three at that time i mean they were stumped.
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: Oh god that had to have looked horrific like they
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: aren't serious.
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: There seems light on content, guys. You know, is this
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: a first draft? Is this the final form? Because it
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: feels very sparse.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I hope that track was 30 seconds because that's
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: about as long as they could have done it.
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's where you go, listen, these girls. And so,
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Lisa's, like, Lisa... Saying to the glam
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: team when she said, I think it was in this
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: episode when she's like, sometimes it's like, bitch.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, that was great.
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm like. Bitch.
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: Bitch.
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: And they were like, bitch. And she was like, ah.

  Speaker 3: You know, there's just, she's kind of giving me some life.
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: She is.
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: I would say.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: She used to start the episode like that with her
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: just goofing around with the glam team. And then the
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: rest of the episode, goofing, like new boot goofing.
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: Reno 911 reference. With Meredith all about San Fran. It's
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: like this is her in peak Lisa Barlow form. And
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: it's so nice to see because we really saw her
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: trying to reach the Mount Everest of fun on Ultimate
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: Girls Trip. And she could never get there. She couldn't
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: reach the peak.
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: These gnats. These gnats kept flooding her and swarming.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, God. Well, listen, such a blast. And we'll leave
• 54:45
