0:48
with Deanna Chang. I don't know about you, guys, but I just
0:51
can't wait for that Golden Bachelor. That's what I'm excited about. Joining me
0:57
today is Emily de Reesis welcome back. Hi. Oh my god, bag,
1:07
I actually might watch. I might join Bachelor Nation for Golden Bachelor.
1:11
Oh watch how I'm excited about that? I know what, No, I'm
1:19
just I my jaws drop because I this came out of the woodwork for me.
1:23
I didn't expect Emily to say that that's a big announcement for today.
1:26
I did. That's a huge announcement. Yes, because I don't typically watch
1:32
it, I'm gonna say I maybe we'll watch it okay, but I know,
1:34
I don't know for sure, but let's have all the bachelor's I've been
1:38
interested in. This is the one I'm in, the Golden Yes. Now,
1:42
Also, here's my idea. And I wouldn't want to offend anybody,
1:47
you know, but I want to put my vote in for the first Golden
1:51
Bachelorette to be. Vicky Goudlis said, Oh, I mean, do you
1:56
have chills or do you have chills? Now? You would keep it very
2:00
interesting? Oh can we? Okay, so first of all, you have
2:05
to be sixty and older. I'm assuming she's sixty, right, she's got
2:07
okay safty? Well, yes, I mean it's just a Google search away.
2:13
I mean, what are we if we're not R and D. At
2:15
this point, Vicki and I got to work to my podcast. It A
2:20
GoGG will say to age okay, sixty one, okay, so it's perfect,
2:24
It's perfect. Oh my gosh, it's such a great idea. And
2:29
she will like, oh my gosh, she'll whoop it up. But also
2:32
she will uh you know that it will be in. It would be interesting
2:38
to see how much she would create. I think she needs someone to work
2:42
off of, another woman to work off of Oh you mean the just bring
2:46
all the traits of megas in and just have them in the sidelines. Oh
2:51
my gosh, her and Shannon, Well there you go. How old is
2:54
Shannon? Oh man? I just closed the window and it was please,
3:00
I gotta go back to shut it in that window. Shit, there there
3:05
is a storm of bruin. Well you missed. You missed the her A
3:09
quake. As you've been traveling, Darling. I know, I of all
3:15
the things, I'm a low key prepper. And when I say lo ki,
3:19
I'm very much a prepper in the sense that I'm ready for the big
3:23
one in Los Angeles, the big quake. So I've got your generators,
3:29
I've got your food that doesn't expire for fourteen years, I got your propane
3:31
stoves. And I was not near any of the fun I was. I
3:37
missed. The big part is done. It was a real dun. I
3:39
mean, the power didn't go out. Maddie was literally chanting, power out,
3:45
power out. You know, I'm like, we don't want that,
3:47
lady, Okay, I want to make shadow puppets because that's what we do.
3:51
That's what we did last time. But Shannon Badoor is fifty nine years
3:54
old. I don't make the cut. I I I'm sorry, I don't
4:00
make the cut. So that's that. But yes, you've been in Maryland,
4:05
you've been in New Hampshire. Yes, we needed to stay Maryland back
4:10
in Maryland. You did not fly home based on this storm, which was
4:14
a good idea. Correct. Well, you know, I took my ten
4:17
year old nephew with me to New Hampshire, who lives in Maryland. So
4:21
the plan was always just to come back to Maryland to drop him back off,
4:26
and I stayed. Once I heard about the world ending, yea,
4:30
I decided to extend my trip. But yeah, we had a great time
4:35
in New Hampshire. Did some fly fishing, but they've had so much rain
4:42
where we were in New Hampshire that we were doing a lot of like line
4:46
fishing because he's also ten so that's more fun for him. And we did
4:51
not catch much because the water was so high that you needed to get a
4:57
line down below the current to really catch. WHOA, that's someone who's talking
5:00
about someone who knows they're fishing. Well, I sound like I know,
5:05
but that's something I learned. Uh, second to last day I was there,
5:10
I was like, oh, that's why they're not biting this year.
5:15
And and then this guy, this grizzled old man who also my dad would
5:18
have says he says the same thing. He's like, you got to use
5:23
a lead sinker, which is lead? And yeah, what is the what
5:32
is a more organic version of an element that's not lead? Right? There
5:42
are better options, darlings. Sound off in the comments with your unleaded sinker
5:46
options. By the way, speaking off gas your sinkers, you have to
5:51
off gas your sinkers. I know this. I grew up on boats.
5:57
I got to give a shout out to one of your the darling it was
6:00
I saw in the comments. I graced the comments and saw Mark Stanley is
6:05
from Aberdeen. He said, I'm in Aberdeen. Oh my gosh, like
6:11
twenty minutes from where I am and twenty minutes from where I grew up.
6:14
I don't. Yeah, I go to the Aberdeen Panera to meet my dad
6:17
sometimes. Oh my god, Mark, I grew up in Cecil County,
6:26
Northeast. Yeah. So Halla, halle mama, pla monk, mamma.

7:50
Emily, you weren't here for this big news, but there is a Drama
7:54
Darling hotline. Now it is up and it is hot because I'm collecting callers
8:01
about the Bethany Rachel podcast so that I can air their everyone's grievances APPLI and
8:09
also not just grievances, but also maybe some support on some of the things
8:13
that were said in that. But that hotline is going to be open for
8:16
people, you know, twenty four to seven, and if you want to
8:22
pop in there and just leave a message about gosh, you know skincare,
8:30
fly fishing, you know, crappy Lake, you name it seven four seven,
8:35
three two two one two eight eight. The next step is to get
8:39
that live onto the show, and I am. I'm pretty hot and bothered
8:45
about it. I'm pretty close. That doesn't make sense. Uh, I'm
8:48
pretty close to make that happen. But in the meantime, we've got this
8:50
hotline, which is great. Option, that is great, and your job
8:54
is technology. So yeah, me and Ralph we're both in it. And
9:00
Marlowe. So I'm so excited you're back. Emily. I missed you,
9:07
me too. I missed the Darlings. I missed. I was so remote
9:11
and so out of it though, like I I got, there's no way
9:15
I could have tuned in. I didn't even know Hillary was a West Coast
9:20
hurricane. Am I the one that broke the news to you? No,
9:24
you definitely broke the news. I was on a plane when you texted me
9:26
that there was an earthquake and I was like what. I was flying back
9:31
to Maryland. Yeah, but uh yeah, I was getting alerts from my
9:37
various utility companies alerting me about a big storm. And I was like,
9:41
well, I have a first one to tell you about Hillary. I knew
9:45
it wasn't that what I met. That's how it I was, That's how
9:48
out of it I was. I was like, I assumed Hillary was hitting
9:52
the Carolinas or Florida. I didn't know. I was like barely looking at
9:54
my phone. Well, oh my gosh, it's so crazy. In the
10:01
meantime, we do have a little dish to serve up, because that's how
10:05
we do. First of all, I want to say congratulations to Lisa vander
10:09
Pump for being one big boss bitch. She is opening a third restaurant inside
10:13
of the Flamingo, Las Vegas. This is joining her already existing vander Pump
10:18
Cocktail Garden, which is in Caesar's and vander Pump Paris, which is in
10:24
Paris, Las Vegas. So this is going to be another restaurant. This
10:28
is absolutely completely in line with what I said and what I predicted, And
10:33
I mean, it doesn't take a genius. Okay, I'm just saying that.
10:37
But I did say, you know, when we were talking about pump
10:39
closing and you know, all that stuff, and I said, look,
10:43
she's pulling up you know, she's pulling up the landing gear and she's going
10:48
to fly her little little Nikolayne fixtures over to Vegas and spread hawings. So
10:56
I think that, I mean, this is again, like this is huge.
11:00
This is a third restaurant in Vegas. This is this, It's all
11:03
happening. And I would I wonder too if it's like kind of uh in
11:07
name only, Like she's licensing her name for the restaurant. So I wonder
11:13
if this is like a less less risky proposition for her, you know,
11:18
like maybe she's she so maybe she gets like a royalty. I'm totally just
11:22
wondering. I have no idea what the deal is on. The hot line
11:26
is open for people also the Patreon page and the discord. I mean,
11:30
I can be reached, you know what I'm saying. I am one fucking
11:33
reachable broad That's all I have to say about that, no go ahead.
11:37
So yeah, licensing her name, Yeah, maybe it's you know, as
11:43
a former president has done. You know, you license your name on these
11:46
buildings and then you kind of get like a really nice royalty, but then
11:50
like you don't also have to take the risk of the asset. So maybe
11:56
that's something that she's doing, which I think that they do. Like I
11:58
think cake Boss is something like that Gag Boss. Yeah about that, the
12:05
pocket Book, Yeah, yeah, so yeah, I wonder, but hopefully
12:07
it's got to be cheaper than running restaurants in West Hollywood. Oh my gosh.
12:13
Also the Flamingo. That's great. I was actually looking at that space
12:16
to do my Cabaremi there. But they really, I mean, they've got
12:20
like their Vegas acts that they're are they're locked and stocked. They don't they
12:24
weren't gonna have anyone in for like just a three night only type of thing.
12:28
They've got their acts. It's it's very Vegas. But it looks really
12:33
cool and I'm very excited about this. So that's fun. That's some fun
12:39
news. Okay. Now, I don't know if you heard any of the
12:43
rumblings last week about larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan, you know, basically fanning
12:50
the flames of an engagement between the two of them. Uh, and they
12:56
I didn't know this, but apparently they have a podcast called Separation Anxiety,
13:01
and they the couple confirmed that they while they aren't engaged yet, Marcus I
13:09
is doing research for a massive diamond ring for Larsa And apparently he was kind
13:16
of like joking in a cheeky way that he was looking for a location for
13:22
a wedding and that it's in the works. And then the paparazzi and the
13:26
tabloids ran with that. Well, I mean, of course they did.
13:31
He told TMZ that that they were having had a wedding date in the works,
13:35
So now you know, he said he got one hundred calls and text
13:39
messages of people congratulating, and then I bet I know one that didn't,
13:43
and that is Michael Oh, Mamma Mia. I bet Michael was not one
13:50
of those. And Scottie for that, Matty. But Tennis Rodman was right
13:56
on board with it. He thought it was great. Tennis Rodman. I
13:58
haven't heard from him him in a while, and I'm rachable broad a lot
14:05
line. Dennis Dennis hit me up. Larsa said, uh no, we're
14:09
not engaged. I mean, it's like these people with their contradictions just putting
14:16
out lush show. They really do. They want to get they want to
14:18
get some press and and so they're kind of shutting down the rumors that they're
14:24
officially engaged. But maybe they're talking about it. My god, anything for
14:30
a podcast, you know, download and I mean, darlings, look,
14:35
let me know what I have to do to get a download. But I
14:37
am reachable. Just give me the hint because I'm not your I'm not going
14:43
to do like an expose. I'm not going to do a gotcha interview.
14:46
I mean, that's just not my cup of tea. I don't know how
14:50
interested I would be in listening to that podcast. But I also bet but
14:56
I'm also surprised that it's not on my radar at all at all. All
15:01
it existed, I mean, Google knows everything about me. You would think
15:05
that that would have been somewhere in my periphery of Google News. I mean
15:11
the Larsa and Marcus thing was, but yeah, but not the rest podcasts.
15:15
Yeah right, well that is talk about like you know, everyone has
15:20
a podcast. I mean, I didn't know they were that serious, Like
15:24
I mean, I thought they were just like paparazzi serious. I didn't really
15:28
think that deep down they were committed enough to have a podcast together. And
15:31
that's a commitment. Because also Larsa's downplayed it a lot too. You know,
15:37
she was saying she was just saying they were really casual and all that.
15:41
But you know, well, in other news, the Feds want Jenshaw's
15:46
earnings, her Salt Lake City Real Housewives earnings, to help pay her fraud
15:50
victims, and they're starting to go after her earnings. But she and her
15:58
co defendants haven't paid any of this six point seven million dollar restitution owed to
16:02
the victims for the telemarketing fraud scheme, and the Manhattan Federal Prosecutors are asking
16:10
a judge to sign off on an order to garnish twenty five percent of her
16:14
earnings from Shed Media that produces Salt Lake City, and the order says the
16:21
earning should continue to be paid to the court clerk until Shaw's release date from
16:26
prison, which is August thirtieth, twenty twenty eight. As of February,
16:30
the media company owed Shaw thirty four thousand dollars her salary for one episode of
16:36
the reality show Court Papers Show, and twenty five percent of the disposable earnings
16:41
on that or five thousand is set to be garnished by the court to go
16:45
toward the restitution. So yeah, her Shaw and her co defendants were ordered
16:52
to pay six point seven million and it remains unpaid. They're also seeking the
17:00
prosecutors to seize two pieces of expensive jewelry from from Shaw to cover separate four
17:07
uh uh, to cover a separate fee for this And let's see what else?
17:15
Maybe a ring here, a gold eighteen carrot rose gold and diamond ring.
17:22
She needs to get Kim Zulciak to do a carrying transitions auction of her
17:27
stuff boat take. Yeah, but the boot take, I don't know what
17:34
this wasn't Kim selling like way overpricing her stuff, but it was selling right,
17:38
and it got I think it could helped get that, Sure did it?
17:44
Sure did so? Sure did so? Kim over there. Yeah,
17:48
she doesn't have a lot of money for them to garnish. Let's just put
17:51
it that way. Well, neither did Kim. Right. Well, remember
17:56
when the Feds like seized all those handbags and they were all fake fake,
18:00
Okay, fay fay, fay fake. Remember that. Yeah, that was
18:03
rough. That was rough. That was rough. So you know, okay,
18:10
that's all for the news. We got other things to talk about.
18:14
We have to talk about first. Let's discuss New York hobba duh. So
18:25
all right, Okay, did you watch Miami last year where Nicole had that
18:32
big party in the bank. No, oh, okay, because I watched
18:37
some of Miami. Wait, I watched some of Miami. Okay, up
18:44
until the hot mic. I feel like I watched it. I maybe I
18:51
forget this party, but it was like the I think it was the finale.
18:55
I think it was the finale. But it was really quite beautiful,
19:00
beautiful, beautiful. But it just reminded me because Aaron's was in a huge
19:06
bank, which was too much. That was too much space, that was
19:10
too much, too much acoustics, too much ceiling to talk with on a
19:15
one microphone with one speaker, it was too much as a speaker, oh,
19:22
as a producer yourself, and as a performer both of us. Uh,
19:27
classical performers, yes, classical performances too well, and a high marble
19:36
ceiling. You just cannot get over what an absolute horrific I mean event,
19:42
this was like, yes, I we have been at so many events with
19:48
these housewives and none have made me feel as uncomfortable as this one practically.
19:52
I mean look, I might be overstating, but I couldn't get out of
19:56
there fast enough. I couldn't handle this. I was like, this is
20:02
unbelievable. Six speakers in that kind of room. You're a val renewal.
20:08
Oh, I am disgusting. I love the idea. How about make it
20:17
more intimate? And then she gets up there and then she's like just the
20:22
classic generic basic match you know vows after ten years you're going to start with
20:29
when we met all those years ago at the draft bar, I never thought,
20:34
are you kidding me? That's all you have after ten years? Also
20:40
like this, I might be very old fashioned, but when you give a
20:44
speech, write it on paper, write it off your phone, paper,
20:48
thank you? Don't. It drives me crazy at a big event. I
20:52
don't care what it is. No, it is important enough for you to
20:56
write. Then write it out on paper. Yeah, type it out.
21:00
I don't know it out, put it on a card. It bothers me.
21:07
I'll tell you what Captain Sandy did it and you know, sorry,
21:10
sorry Sandy. Captain Sandy did it when she was marrying two people for the
21:17
first time. She was the officiant and on on one of the yacht charters
21:22
and she married them, and she had her phone and she was reading from
21:26
her phone like you know, now you may kiss the bride type of thing.
21:30
And I was living. I was fit to be tied. I mean,
21:33
throw me over the scroll like that would look cool. Just something,
21:40
just anything. Didn't print his out, I mean he had it. He
21:45
had a piece of paper. He did have a piece of paper. And
21:48
that guy that that walked out down. You don't need four sheets of paper,
21:51
that one guy, that's just me out. Maybe he did, Maybe
21:56
he needed it in large print. You know what I'd rather that. I'd
22:00
rather ten sheets of paper, yeah, than one iPhone. Also, you
22:04
can't see. The lighting was terrible. It was dark, it looked cold.
22:10
It clearly didn't have enough food. Never does with Aaron, it never
22:15
does. And you know what, size right. As much as she complains
22:19
she's dead on right with this eron gal, she is not providing the food.
22:25
Who was sponsoring the food? That's what I was thinking. I was
22:30
like, how do you when when she when earlier in the episode, when
22:33
Brinn mentions that, I was like, oh, well, then it's gonna
22:37
be amazing food, right, because it's going to be a sponsored thing.
22:41
Right. What was there that was sponsored? I don't understand it. There
22:47
were so many flowers just in one place. Like I clocked some arrangement that
22:52
was enormous, and I thought, Nah, you gotta you gotta fill this
22:57
place up. If you're gonna if if if one bouquet, you need several,
23:03
you need some Yeah, in a in a grand room like that,
23:07
you gotta have. You're gonna spend so much money on flowers, so I
23:12
mean, or even even if you even if it's sponsored by flowers, like
23:18
you have to have so many make it. You're gonna need to steal some
23:22
of Charret's sip and sea balloons and bears to to uh to decorate this,
23:29
you know, because this was something that needs it didn't need to happen.
23:32
It didn't need to happen this way, you guys, or you know it
23:36
just didn't. Yes, here's the other option. If you're looking to get
23:40
if you want to have an event in a big, grand room, this
23:44
is uh. A lot of times these grand rooms are automatically decorated for the
23:48
holidays, So do it at the holidays and then you don't have to spend
23:52
all that money. Yeah, it seems like it was the holiday. I
24:00
mean right, I mean last week. Last week Jenna was decorating her tree
24:06
with her god all of her god children, you know, and her son.
24:08
I'm wrong, they won't So at that bank, they were like nocorated.
24:14
No, they are not well because guess what that bank isn't live,
24:18
you know what I mean, Like, that's just a spot. It's just
24:22
a spot. They're better off just going to it, like the chase on
24:26
the corner. You know, at least they're gonna have a tree and some
24:30
hot coco and maybe you can sign up for you know, roth Ira and
24:34
open some kind of nice account. But I just I had some issues with
24:41
that party. It was so it was the least amount of intimacy we've ever
24:45
seen in a vow renewal situation. We've seen many vow renewals, the one
24:51
that works, that one that is not the kiss of death, but go
24:53
on. So maybe because this party was so bad, you know, I
25:00
don't I don't worry about their relationship that's the great news. They seem they
25:04
seem great. Yeah, look he's a deadhead. You're gonna find success with
25:11
a dead head. He is about as relaxed and chill and he's into her.
25:15
And I was totally on board with their relationship until they did a bowl
25:19
renewal. Oh well yeah, it's the kiss of death. I'm sorry.
25:23
I just we just haven't seen one that hasn't been the you know, Canary
25:30
and the coal mine kind of thing. Yeah, right, yes, that's
25:37
that's what that. So we'll see what happens. Well, but I do
25:40
like them as a couple. I root for the I think that they'll be
25:45
fine hopefully, but you know, yeah, I'm not totally invested. You've
25:52
now you're now like you've backed off. Okay, yes, I will not
25:56
be sponsoring. Yeah, I was not asked to be a smaller. That
26:00
invitation was ridiculous with the sponsors. Yes, this was Yeah, it was
26:07
like a charity event. Yes, it was like Coachella. That's really whoever
26:14
made that joke, I don't know it was. She had some funny things
26:17
she was saying. She was like, I'm gonna need adderall if you want
26:18
me to pay attention I mean she was spot on like with everything, and
26:25
oh how about that one speaker that thought he had something where he's like when
26:29
I got arrested for a fake idea in high school, and it's like crickets.
26:33
I mean, the editing was actually really funny, but I I just
26:37
get uncomfortable with these types of things because I think to myself, well,
26:41
first of all, if the person who's saying their vows is shushing the audience,
26:45
yeah, it might not be an audience problem. It might be a
26:48
party problem or a you problem. You know. When she said I need
26:53
to go over with the party planners the run of show, I was like,
27:00
excuse me, I think we're in for some trouble here, because if
27:03
you have a run up show at a vow renewal, yeah you bet,
27:07
not more than you can chew. And they did unless it singers, unless
27:11
someone's going to sing a song or something. But let me tell you this.
27:15
I just read that at Jack Antonoff and Martha, the popular couple that
27:26
got married that Taylor Swift was at this weekend. Okay, but that's what
27:29
I'm saying. Taylor Swift's speech was fifteen minutes, and I was like,
27:33
whoa too much. Taylor, are you serious? It was fifteen minutes,
27:37
that's what I read, and even Taylor saying, well, that's what I
27:41
don't know, and that's what I'm saying. I didn't say that she did.
27:45
And I was like, even for Taylor Swift, I don't even Taylor
27:48
Swift, You're gonna have to take that mic away, hone, I'm sorry,
27:52
Yes there is. Look these people start to get this is where the
27:59
narcissism and the anything I do is fine, you know, And this is
28:03
what makes her a great housewife. This is a perfect display of someone who's
28:07
a great housewife. This event was nails on a chalkboard for me. I
28:11
couldn't get over the the acoustics, the the the poor preparation, it seemed
28:18
like from afar at how this event was taking place, the amount of people
28:22
there, the again the I'm just gonna go on with the same stuff.
28:26
But then when her sister came over and shushed them, Okay, did you
28:32
think that that was a little pre planned? Yeah? I don or the
28:37
producers were like, I think maybe it wasn't so much planned as egged on
28:41
by the producers to be like, hey, why don't you go over and
28:45
tell those because everyone else was talking. Everybody, I mean, Brin had
28:51
it right, like, are you just gonna go around and tell everybody to
28:53
stop chatting? And I love that. Jenna immediately is like, oh,
28:57
oh you no, you're right, you're right. I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
29:02
because she's so like, we don't want any problems. We I mean,
29:04
that would definitely be me in the situation. Oh no, no,
29:07
no, we're fine. We're waitish, you know, like, I mean,
29:11
you don't want to be rude either. I get that, but I
29:15
did think that like the sister thought, I'm going to have my moment and
29:21
I'm going to go over there, because I think she pre planned it where
29:25
she thought they're definitely going to be arguing. I'm sure they'll be arguing,
29:29
so my line will be can you please stop arguing? And they weren't even
29:33
arguing. No, we weren't arguing. What are you talking about talking about?
29:37
That's what? That's what. Yeah, that's when I thought it might
29:41
have been a producer egging her on to be like, hey, they're arguing
29:45
over there, maybe could you just ask them to like not argue. That's
29:48
pretty rude, right, And that's when she went over and said that because
29:52
it's it, it felt very unnatural for her, and yeah, just didn't
30:00
click. And then also the best part was when the mom came up and
30:04
she's like ready to just check. I mean, oh, I felt so
30:11
bad for her. And then the daughter's like, shut the fuck up.
30:15
The word she was just became a monster. And then the mom was like,
30:21
oh, I check. Oh, I guess we'll talk later. I
30:25
mean, I felt so bad for her. You know, it was so
30:26
funny. Even the mom was bored. Yeah, like she and she was
30:32
like sad that she couldn't fight, was sad she was whisked away. I
30:37
mean that sister just whisked her away. Was like nope, I think it
30:42
was meimed already because it was so crazy. But the Aaron's dad's girlfriend Jackie
30:49
with the side eye, did you pick up on that to the side I
30:53
took the camera, No to Aaron. Oh, it's amaz I I that's
30:59
the best part of the entire episode. Go back, gosh, okay,
31:03
when Jackie's dad comes up or I'm sorry, When Aaron's dad walks up with
31:08
his girlfriend Jackie and introduces Aaron at the party to Jackie, Jackie does this
31:15
you know, I'm not looking you up and down, but I'm looking you
31:19
up and down. Look. And I mean I saw it on Twitter before
31:23
I saw the upste No way, I can't wait to get back. She
31:26
had a red hour puss look on her face. Oh it's so good,
31:30
it's worth the episode. It's I saw her bank. I just saw her
31:37
look directly at the camera like John Crison Sky in the office, like you
31:42
know, So that's what I saw. And then Aaron's dress was ill fitting
31:48
and honey, I'm sorry, look I'm gonna ask. I'm in a Shambrai
31:53
jumpsuit. That look it's probably just as ill fitting. But the point is
32:00
I think it looks good. Thank you. I just feel like the sides,
32:06
the cutting of the sides and then having to see the tape there,
32:08
it's not working. You can't just keep fiddling with it all night. It's
32:13
not good. It was certainly cool, but it looks great. I loved
32:17
the back list part of it. That part I was like, I loved
32:22
everything. And then when she turned around and it was like pushing and pulling
32:27
at her skin. That looks painful. I felt like that dress in that
32:32
event, I felt like I wanted to keep boobs. Yeah, I wanted
32:37
to get out, but yeah, we wanted to get out. You were
32:39
the left, that was the right. I was like, get us out
32:43
of here, but we can't. We're caged in. The acoustics are terrible
32:46
and oh gosh. Also, I was curious about how much those earrings weighed,
32:52
because did you see the back of the earring was just this gigantic cue
33:00
And I was like, oh, that's all. Yeah, I could not
33:04
pull that off because my lobes, like the holes are a little lower and
33:08
they're not like really centered in the middle of my lobe. So I feel
33:10
like, yeah, I can't wear heavy earrings, and so I always have
33:15
to wear like a light If I'm gonna wear a long earring, it's gonna
33:19
have to be light or else it just looks like it's pulling my lobes.
33:22
No, I mean, it looked good. I just was like, that
33:27
looks really heavy. But that's just me. I can't wear four hundred thousand
33:32
dollars or a million dollars worth of diets. It was wild that she got
33:37
that, and then Uba unfortunately couldn't make it to the show. I mean
33:39
the show, the run of show the show, the run of show.
33:43
You know who they needed at that vowerule show is that Richard J Alexander from
33:50
Jay all the Way from Broadway Darling. Yeah, he came in and he
33:55
said, you sit here, and you sit there and then you hold hands
34:00
and then I don't do ten minutes of speeches. Everyone right, somebody know
34:06
how spike a chair? That was the best. It's like again waiting for
34:08
uff. How about that guest with the hair on fire that was like,
34:15
what is on my bag? And then just puts it out with one swipe?
34:21
Do that is she like a Marvel character? Was so confused like that
34:30
epic and that they even could they had a camera on like it within the
34:35
vicinity was great too. Again was that planned? Like? How boring was
34:39
this party where the producers like, I don't know, someone on fire,
34:44
set it on fire. I don't know. That was the second time we've
34:49
seen somebody's hair caught catch on fire on a Housewive show. The first one
34:53
was I believe Shannon, Oh remember that I art. I mean it was
35:00
like a seal, you know, seal just just popping up on the rocks
35:07
waiting for some fresh fish, like cy So cy leaves. She doesn't even
35:13
make it to the Yeah, yeah, I have to ask you something.
35:15
How do you feel about Brin hitting on Aaron's husband? Well, I thought
35:21
it. She was relentless. It's like it's just not funny, like but
35:27
it's all in good fun, and I really I know that that's going to
35:30
become a thing. But yeah, because you know Brent, because you all
35:36
know Bryn, she doesn't mean anything by it. But I also am like,
35:40
it's not like you did a couple jokes. Let it lie. You're
35:45
absolutely relentless. Stop it's annoying. Okay, So like you think it's a
35:51
joke, But do you think like if she even got the hint of a
35:55
bite, like that's what I mean, Like she's putting it on there so
36:00
so much that like maybe off camera, like you know what I mean,
36:06
Like if there's just a hint of something. I mean, she's kind of
36:10
playing with fire. I think I will are uncomfortable. Yes, she's playing
36:16
with hair on fire brand brand hair on fire Liar, Liar. I was.
36:21
I was extremely uncomfortable, not only because of the venue and the party
36:25
and the speeches and the and then Brin's sunglasses and how uncomfortable she was,
36:30
and she's so restless, like in her own skin almost, and especially at
36:36
this event that it was like, literally I was having so many visceral reactions
36:40
to a show that I didn't think would was ever going to do that,
36:45
you know, let alone have a vow renewal party and just throw me for
36:47
a loop. But I wish I could pull those sunglasses off. I wish
36:52
I could wear sunglasses like inside at night because it looks cool. I just
36:58
would be like, yeah, so I just like at her extragery, like
37:00
I be making up something to say right off, but I thought it looked
37:05
really cool. Oh yeah, and the whole white outfit. I loved it.
37:08
But it's like to me when she's making those jokes and they're just bad,
37:15
like dad, you know, I want to say call them Dad jokes,
37:17
but they're not that. They're just like it just shows how uncomfortable she
37:22
is, and it's like, yeah, it's not funny, And if anything,
37:27
it it's a real turn off, Like that float, that way of
37:31
flirting ends up being to me a turnoff. If I were like the recipient
37:37
of that, if I were him, if I were Abe, I'd be
37:39
like, Okay, turn it off like this is annoying. It would be,
37:45
Yeah, that's why, like a dude doing that would annoy the shit
37:49
out of me. But then I think too about some of the soundbites that
37:52
I've heard from the Bethany and uh Rachel podcast where she's talked about like her
37:58
and now these are soundbites are I'm paraphrasing, but basically how like her thing
38:02
was to go after taken dudes. And I thought, like, brit come
38:07
on, like I kind of got that vibe a little bit. Oh right,
38:13
So because like I just thought that that was uh one or two like
38:20
little lines just in front of Aaron as a fun thing with my right in
38:24
front of Aaron. Much better sweets or I don't know, but like that
38:29
just felt like wow, Yeah, it was like County right, it was,
38:34
And I think like if Aaron was there, it would have been a
38:37
different story. But the fact that she wasn't is just strange. Yeah,
38:40
Like even Jess seemed a little uncomfortable, but maybe I'm reading into that.
38:45
Well that's because she was still wearing lingerie from the other night and she hates
38:49
it so much. Oh my gosh. We got to talk about the new
38:54
show that Everybody loves coming to you on Sunday Night on CBS. Everybody loves
39:01
Pavit. Does he not remind you? Yeah? Yeah he I love Pavit.
39:15
Yeah I do too, because, as I said, I get real
39:20
anxious when they start talking about their kids, like preschools and Povit definitely is
39:27
my voice in that conversation any race car drivers again, Ray Ramono, the
39:32
same as Mychina impression. You know, this is the thing. Uh.
39:39
They talk about the Montessori School, about the applications and she's like, I
39:44
don't think you understand the urgency of this, and we have less than two
39:46
weeks to get the applications in. And he's like and she's like, our
39:50
kids could speak Mandarin. He's like, they can't even speak English. Run
39:53
now, So, I mean he's got all the funny lines. And if
39:59
you watch it back, she's scrolling through these applications and she's got the Montssori
40:05
School up. I'm the one that's like the one that has the celebrities that
40:10
go to it, and she's like scrolling. She's like, I just want
40:14
to see what your you know, if this is feasible, like what your
40:17
take is on it? And she kind of scrolls down to show the big
40:20
sixty two thousand dollars and it's such a setup you can see, and she's
40:23
just waiting for him to respond, you know what I mean, I'm going
40:28
to give you a bye. I'm going to give you a pass. Okay,
40:31
okay, Jessel. That's fine because you really set Povet up for a
40:37
nice pivot there, and he had some great fun jokes that seemed authentic in
40:42
the moment, but you know, you set them up and that's fine.
40:45
And like her line saying, I mean you need to invest like Tom Cruise
40:51
sent his kid here, you know, things like that, which seems very
40:54
like are we Is she really for real? Like, yeah, it's not
40:58
a little performative, thank you. Yeah, we don't want to see that.
41:04
It's too fun now, No, And I think maybe this is the
41:07
also we're maybe that's a little bit of the people's issue, not mine.
41:12
I still love this new Roney, but maybe that's kind of like I'm saying,
41:16
as the audience. Usually that's behavior we see in a new housewife and
41:22
their family is a little bit performative, and now we're seeing a whole cast
41:25
at once having those moments. So we're on a point like we don't we
41:30
don't know where to totally trust the authenticity yet. So maybe that's kind of
41:37
like what we're picking up on, and likely what we're picking up on,
41:40
they'll be a little bit more natural because it's it's weird because usually you get
41:46
one new housewife a season and either their husband is totally not on board and
41:52
kind of a dick I eat like Shane and Emily. Yeah, and then
41:55
once he gets they kind of get into it and then and that goes away,
42:00
or we get this weird performance art oh a sketch, oh and scene
42:08
you know. So yeah, yeah, kind of what we're getting. That's
42:13
like what we're getting. And I did love that. She was like,
42:15
oh no, they're asking for boards and associations. Are you part of anything
42:19
other than the Fried Chicken Committee? And he was like, it's a street
42:22
food association of New York City, which is amazing. I mean, the
42:27
Fried Chicken Committee, It's great. And I think that I love this scene.
42:31
I loved it. Everybody loves Povet, love Povet. And her use
42:35
of the word inept was hysterical. I was like, oh my, you're
42:37
so how could you not know I was like, whoa, she needs to
42:43
go to this school. I think she does. I did think it was
42:49
refreshing that like prices do matter across the board with this Rony cast, they
42:53
do talk about pricing and money and like price tags being an issue or just
43:01
like impressive, whereas like in other casts, it's like money is no object.
43:07
And yeah, so I do kind of appreciate that. I agree.
43:12
I agree. I think that all the husbands so far on this show are
43:16
proving themselves to be very likable and actually decent husbands. I don't get any
43:22
douchey vibes or many of them, I mean wearing a shit. I love
43:27
it. Yeah, they're just like you dudes. Yes, Abe is great
43:31
and the fact that he like he's a grateful dead I loved his vows by
43:36
the way, I thought they were really really quite beautiful and yeah, yeah
43:39
I felt so. So. I don't feel like any of them are trying
43:45
to do a camera grap like none of them are trying to be the like
43:50
they're nobody's going to be selling an apron after this, Oh thank god.
43:54
Yeah, yeah, Abe is great. Everybody loves POV it is great,
44:00
and David size husband is great too. He's just first of all, I
44:06
was so happy that that kid drew on that carpet. I was like,
44:08
thank you, because you know, girls and Jessel with your white ass houses,
44:16
I can't. This is just not practical with kids. Stop stop it.
44:22
Yeah, and then like to be like upset. She actually didn't get
44:25
as upset as I'm sure she probably would have liked to have. But the
44:29
cameras were on her. But you set the table for this child, for
44:34
this something to happen. You have absolutely no right to be angry or disappointed
44:38
or upset. Uh. It's called just get child friendly things and expect that
44:45
it will be destroyed, or like, get ruggabules on top, put ruggables
44:51
down on top of your carpet. For the problems, I've got rocks.
44:58
Oh my gosh. Well, we do get a little scene with Jenna and
45:02
the architect, and she's into interior design. She renovated a brownstone that she
45:07
got for Hampshire. So I didn't know. Oh I didn't know that.
45:14
I haven't watched shit Spreads. Okay, that's Emily. So what characters did
45:17
she play on that? She's the regular? Remember her? Oh yeah,
45:22
yeah, yeah, she runs the hotel before they arrived, Like she's a
45:29
character. Yeah, character, that's so cool. Well, they apparently were
45:37
set up, but I love that they just like, you know, they
45:39
didn't have a romantic interest, but they continue to be friends. And she's
45:43
making, you know, designing this Canadian On the notes it said Canadian playhouse.
45:49
Yes, well, I mean but it's her house, right, Yeah,
45:53
so she went in coffins for the nursery, right right. And I
46:00
love that she was really hard plugging those love scene lashes. That was great.
46:04
I know that was really cool. Yeah. I love that that was
46:07
women supporting women. I was like, I want to get some Yeah,
46:12
well that really wraps up. Oh shit, No, Jenna is single.
46:16
Jenna say she's single. And also Meredith and Brooks were ethic it together.
46:22
Oh my god, thank you for bringing that up. She's like, Aaron's
46:28
like, you have to come to my shabbat. We'll have no food.
46:30
I would love that, Like, yeah, we would love that. This
46:37
is a great party. I am just like, can I be a speaker
46:42
too? That was amazing. How do they know each other? Who knows?
46:51
Who knows? It's anybody's guests. Okay, but Jenna single and she's
46:54
saying like she's making moves. So now I'm wondering, do you think the
46:59
woman that she's with now is the same woman that she was with her and
47:02
shooting they just got back together? Yeah, I think I read that.
47:06
Yeah, I could be mistaken, but I think that's what I read.
47:09
That they were on again off again. Oh okay, good, all right,
47:14
great? Yeah, great, Well that's that. That is that.
47:19
Let's talk about Oh yeah, we got to talk about crappy wig and this
47:23
is the last Nelly I know. Amy. I cried at the end.
47:29
I got a little choked up too. I mean Greg Mills, Greg Mills.
47:35
What was his name? Wait? Greg? Greg? Greg? Yeah,
47:39
I know, But isn't that Is that Greg? His name too,
47:43
Craig Mills, isn't it? Yeah? I know Greg Mills, but it's
47:45
Greg Craig. Okay, okay, I'm getting him confused, Greg Mills.
47:50
We both know Greg Mills. I'm sure we all know Greg. Great guy,
47:55
Second City alum, Greg Mills. But not the gentleman in Benton that
48:00
was crying his eyes out over that warmed his art and just the residents they
48:08
you know, other than the guy with the sign at the end that said
48:12
show us your tits. You know, they really showed up for these ladies
48:16
at the end, and tell guy got me the hotel. Hotel guy got
48:22
yeah, that's what I was like, I'm fine, I'm fine. What
48:24
okay? I know because he was one of the ones that I thought had
48:30
his guard up and was kind of like along for the ride and pretty cool,
48:34
but I didn't know he was getting emotionally invested. And I thought it
48:37
was really sweet, so sweet, And they have a Benton billboard? How
48:43
much does that cost? That could have gone towards the playground. I was
48:46
like, is that green screen? You know what? I mean? Oh,
48:51
good call. But they have them like out the window. But I
48:55
wonder if they're like, we're gonna do like a green screen billboards. So
49:00
yeah, because why wouldn't the town met at the billboard. Wouldn't that have
49:02
been the better? It's way out, I mean, it's all the freeway,
49:06
Emily, I mean, well it's not there's not. The point is
49:09
not many people are coming or going into Benton, so they could have gone
49:13
to that billboard. I mean it's a fair point. But I'm just supporting
49:19
your green screen, I know, because been much better visual than the town
49:22
around that. I know you're right. Well, Lou's Broadway director is there,
49:30
Richard J. Alexander. And then the editing of hearing Lou walk into
49:36
the theater. I need to see the doctor for parasites because I still lose
49:38
the ships and I forgot my underwear. Poor Lou. Here she is dealing
49:46
with the ships in Benton, which no surprise, but like she's plugging her
49:52
way through this. You know that's got to be very uncomfortable. Well,
49:58
I appreciated that, even with what I thought was could could be considered kind
50:04
of a low stakes thing where it's just like they're hosting this like little follies.
50:08
Like Lou was actually as nervous as though she was like performing like fun,
50:14
yeah Broadway or something. Yes, I loved how serious she took it.
50:20
And the rehearsal was such a hot mess. Yes, I mean I
50:24
it started off fun with her looking at the theater seat, saying like I
50:29
like to stand on stage and look and just take it all in. That's
50:31
what I do before my cam rays. And then she's and Sony's like I
50:38
guy, and Lou's like you rehearse it? Just shocked. I'm like,
50:44
that's a read but then the arguing and lou stomping off. You know that
50:50
was intense because I did see like a little bit of both points. Sonya
50:54
was like, he needs Corny Cox needs the changes. You have changes,
51:00
and then but they're wasting time and and once you heard the song, I'm
51:02
like, I don't think any giving Courtney the changes would have mattered. And
51:07
long No, with that rap that they had, I mean, it was
51:13
something else they they they had some lyrics in there and they you know,
51:17
Courtney Cox was following along, and you know, they did exactly what it
51:22
had to be. It was going to kill no matter what because they're naming
51:29
people in the audience and making a personal Yeah it's kill City. You went,
51:35
yeah, absolutely absolutely. It didn't need to be any better. And
51:38
it wasn't even that it could have been worse. It just was what it
51:43
was. It wasn't going to ever be like this epic, but it was
51:46
it going to become a single. No, Well, I'm sure leu Anne
51:50
would have loved that, but it's not going to make the cut. But
51:54
I did love you know what they did. It's the But they do have
51:58
two completely different styles of you know, their musical talent, so it was
52:01
hard to blend the two. Yeah, but I did the direction to have
52:07
them come out like that was very good, mister Alexander. I appreciated that.
52:13
Yeah, yep, and uh and I love that. Luanne was like
52:17
I might do an Ariana Grande Ariana Grandie grande tony. Oh my god,
52:24
that was so funny. And then the first singer didn't have a microphone.
52:28
She's standing out there. That was weird. Yeah, but par for the
52:31
course on something like this. You know, like they had that one tech
52:35
rehearsal and they basically they that was it. It wasn't like they had like
52:40
multiple dress rehearsals where they were going to iron all this stuff up out multiply,
52:45
you know, like it was kind of I can't I can't believe that
52:49
was the only thing that went wrong. Yeah, you're right. Well,
52:53
Paula Abdul was very involved. She was scurrying backstage to get to her girls.
52:59
I was very impressed with that, and also, oh my gosh,
53:04
such a professional. I wondered where I think that Michael, I'm sorry,
53:10
Richard J. Alexander slept in the hotel, but I'm wondering where Paula slept
53:15
because I don't think they put her up in the Benton Hotel good because Jen,
53:20
Yeah, because Richard did make a comment about the motel, But I
53:23
don't know. Maybe that was just for the show. Sonya eating like right
53:30
before the show. Wow, I cannot do that. Oh I cannot do
53:34
that. And Lou said it too, She's like, how can you eat?
53:37
Like I'm so nervous. But I guess you know that makes everyone's Yeah,
53:42
everybody's so different, Like I get. I always think that, like
53:45
for something that I could do, someone's going to be the exact opposite.
53:49
So that would be the exact opposite. Yeah, handle, Oh yeah,
53:52
that was so funny. I mean she's shoving popcorn in her mouth before going
53:57
on. That was amazing and boy oh boy, it was a success that
54:02
it was a huge audience and I love the show. It was sad to
54:06
see It's sad to see it ending, but they really proved themselves to be
54:10
in two incredible ladies. We need these every summer, Bravo. If you're
54:15
not going to give us the Summer by Bravo commercials anymore, then we need
54:19
to have a crappy Lake style show every summer. And I'm not talking about
54:24
stars on Mars, which has been fun. I am talking a crappy Lake
54:30
style whipping it up and a small town and not that song what's so small
54:37
talent's pissing everyone else, the John Mellencamp song. No, there's that song
54:44
that you can't do that in a small town. Oh, I don't know,
54:46
it's yeah, well whatever you out of there's no show. Oh okay,
54:54
Well, sorry, don't know about it. Didn't do it, didn't
54:58
do it wasn't made. But I really hope they do. So we've kind
55:02
of talked about this. Yeah, give what what would be your ideal next?
55:07
I said last week, I said trace AGAs, You're okay. I
55:12
didn't hear that. That would be great. I think trace Megas would be
55:15
good. How about you, I'm gonna say not trace Amgas. Well I'm
55:20
not. I'm gonna say not Vicki only because she was such a fucking stick
55:23
in the mud on the Peacock Girls trip that I'm oh, that's right.
55:29
Tell everybody I died sad. That was so funny. That was so good.
55:32
Though I know that that proves the point even more. I'm gonna say,
55:37
Phedra and Derinda, but maybe you need to have two, you have
55:44
to have same same. I don't know, but I would love freakin' frack.
55:49
I would love a portion. And I was just gonna say great,
55:52
yeah, okay, all right, well Emily, that's it for us.
