• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Housewives of Salt Lake City episode three and baby, just
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: when I thought I was Housewives out, the rain Drops
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: put me on assignment, gave me some homework, had me
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: watch it, and child I am hooked. Secondly, we're going
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: to talk about how NBC Universal released a statement to
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: their production company partners and Deadline picked it up in
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: regards to strengthening the workplace conduct guidelines for their reality shows.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Bethany Franco responds. Niini responded to Bethany, Is Bethany taking
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: the credit for this? Is Niini being dismissed again. We're
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: going to talk about it first. Let's get into Salt
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Lake City. Look here, child, remember a few podcasts episodes ago,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Darlings I mentioned how I was Housewivestle.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: You know I'm into Miami. I think it's spectacular.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: This season of the Real Housewives of Orange County is spectacular
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I loved it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Tamick Judge came back, saved the show from sinking out
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: the Titanic and resurrected that thing. And then Atlanta was
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: a snooze. And then I did not watch Jersey. So
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I said to myself, what, child, what's the point of
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: watching Salt Lake City if Genshaw, Prisoner of the Law,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: is not going to be on it? Because I felt
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: like Jenshaw was the face of Salt Lake City. But
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: let me tell you, honey, the rain drops said to me, Carlos,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: you must watch Salt Lake City.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: It's so good. It's so good. It's so good.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: So as if I needed another show to add to
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: my DVR, honey, I decided to watch Salt Lake City,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: and Baby, I was not disappointed. Let's just get into
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: this most recent episode. I believe it's episode three. Mary
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Cosby is back and she's delivering as always. But there's
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: this new chick named Monica who is perfection. Monica is beautiful,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: she's funny, she is self deprecating, she laughs at herself,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: She's very whimsical. In addition to she's really invested in
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the conversations. Monica, to me, is the future of Salt
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Lake City because one thing that show had that I
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: felt was missing was this sort of like young freshness,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: you know, no host bar I said what I said,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: type of energy, and Monica is it. Monica is so
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: great to watch and the fact that she is able
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: to call things out like she sees it is the
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: reason why I'm very much into this particular season of
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Salt Lake City. Now, granted I was obsessed with season
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: two of Saltlake City.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: To me, that's their best season. It was tens across
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the board.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: That's when Lisa allege that Meredith was sleeping with everybody
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: in New York City.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Yes, that one.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, she pretty much was calling her Donald Trump, because
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: what she's saying is Meredith was using.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Herbert JJ all across.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: New York City and the meat packing district, pun intended,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: and every place else.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: It was that season.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Child. So let's get into this most recent episode. First
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: of all, Mary is still on Whitney's tail, and it's
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: just fun to watch. It's hilarious to watch Mary dangle
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the shade across everyone's direction when she was walking by
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: the pool, honey, and then Angie, which by the way,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I'm also loving Angie, and he's like.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, girl, come over in here, girl, let's talk.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: And Mary in her corner on the cob, Honey, She's like, no,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: don't talk to me like that. So I know you
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: guys are like, what is she referring to? Talk to her?
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Like what I think? Because Angie said girl in a
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: very black girl way. I think Mary thought Angie was
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: shifting her tone. Look, I think that's a reach, and
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I like Mary, I don't think Angie was doing that.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: But that's the reason why Mary responded in that manner
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: is because she felt like she was giving black girl
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: tone as she was talking to Mary.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: So that was that.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Again, I think it's to reach my opinion, but it
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: was funny nonetheless. So anyway, so they go to this hotel,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: the Trixie Motel, the infamous drag queen from Ruepaul's Drag Race, Meredith,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: who I believe starred in The Nun Rose Mary's Baby, Misery,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: every horror movie you could think of, scream She was
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: giving me Courtney Cox vies. Meredith and Courtney Cox looked
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: like sisters. So Meredith was possessed, even she says she
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: was possessed. Meredith was so possessed by the devil within
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: her when she was sitting at the dinner table across
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: from ang k and the way Meredith was telling Angie
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: to leave in this very maniacal horror movie way that
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: I believe Jordan Peel, Wes Craven, and Ryan Murphy all directed,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: and it was the scene of a lifetime miss thing
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: was giving America horror story. Move away, Kim Kardashian and
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Emma Roberts. There's a new actress in town, and bitch
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: her name is Meredith Marx. Meredith Marx with her yellow
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: dress child was furious at Angie and the stuff that
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Meredith was saying was so interesting to me because it's like,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: what are you talking about about? You know things I know,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: and lives can be ruined. I'm like, Meredith, what the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: fuck are you doing? I know you don't like to engage,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: but you're engaging now, but you're not making any sense
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: to me. But she was clearly so upset. So made
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: me think, like, does Angie have something on Meredith. There's
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: been these accusations. Like I said earlier, Releasa Barlow intimated
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: that Meredith is using her body to get what she wants.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: She's telling the producer off camera pretty much Meredith sleeps around.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: And Angie wasn't even saying those things to Meredith. But
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: the way meredith eyeballs came out of her socket, giving
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: you chucky doll vibes, it was very interesting to me
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: that Meredith looked afraid of what Angie may say. Now
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering, Meredith, what's TI says? First of all, I
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: like me some Meredith marks. I think she's so pretty,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: she's so gorgeous. She looks like a Porsona doll when
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: she's not being possessed by you know, the devil definitely
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Rosemary's baby. But something is good going on in Meredith's past,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: or has gone on in her past. That makes me
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: think these girls know something about Meredith that she does
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: not want to come out. And what could that be?
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Do y'all think she's cheating on the husband? And then
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: she tells Lisa Barlowe we can talk about the husbands.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Let me.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: She does want me to talk about her husband. What
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: is going on in Salt Lake City? That's the reason
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: why I call it the Real Housewives of Salt Lake
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: City Girls.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: These are some city girls living there.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Nelly Furtado promiscuous life allegedly, that's what it's giving, and
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: it's giving that something is bubbling over that's going to
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: spill like a volcano is going to erupt. And Meredith
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: got some skelettentts in her closet. No, not the voodoo doubts,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: she has an angiek Something else is going on. There
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: are some skeletons in Meredith's closet and I am curious
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: what that could be. Child.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: We are just getting started. Stay tuned.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Let's get back into the show. Something's happening with Lisa too,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: because they're also intimating that there's something going on with
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Lisa and her husband, and now there could be something
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: going on with Angie.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, Monica, I'm like, what in the world
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: is going on?
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Here? Is giving Scary Island without Kelly ben Simone. Yes,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: in New York City, That's what it's giving. It's giving
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: very much that these girls know something about each other
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: and they are waiting until the moment arrives to spill
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: the tea and baby my cup is running over. The
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is so fucking good.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: I am hooked.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: It's better than Atlanta current season and I'm only three
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: episodes in. Bitch is better than Atlanta. It's better than
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Jersey's past season. Although the reunion was great, Salt Lake
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: City is bringing good and I'm going to credit Monica,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Angk and Mary coming back.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: It's good.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I implore all of you to watch Salt Lake City.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I may even recap it weekly, that's how good it
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: is so far.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: And just to think I almost wrote this show off
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: the way Jenshaw allegedly was writing checks off to other
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: people allegedly allegedly allegedly, But what do y'all think? Do
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: y'all think Meredith is cheating on her husband? Like, I'm
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: really intrigued with that. And then Heather, and y'all know,
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: I don't really see it that much for Heather the
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: bad Mormon. Yeah, I don't really see it too much
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: for her. But she was so funny at the table,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: super funny with the baseball cap and everything.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: She was good.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I'm telling y'all, every housewife on that show has stepped
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: it up. And kudos to the producers and the production
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: for making this season enjoyable. We're only three episodes in
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: and I'm telling you, guys, I'm hooked.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: It's good. I literally have no complaints.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Up next, let's get into NBC Universa releasing a statement
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: or should I say, email, to all of its production
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: partners in regards to workplace conduct guidelines for their realogy shows.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: So let's go back a little bit.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: As you all know, Bethany Franco and her bone decided
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: to hire a bunch of high powered attorney to do
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: what she has called a reality reckoning, which is again,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: these are her words, not mine, and I'm paraphrasing at
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: that Bethany wants to unionize reality stars the way actors
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: are in unions, and she wants to do it based
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: upon the fact that she feels reality stars deserves more
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: of what they're getting right now, whether it's treatment, monetary,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: means all of those things. As you all know too,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: she interviewed the artist formerly known as Raquel. Her name
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: is Rachel for Vanda Pump Rules. As we all know now,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Rachel is not coming back to this upcoming season of
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Vanda Pump Rules. Bethany has leak I'm sorry, I mean
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Bethan Allegedly, TMZ and all these other outlets have picked
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: up tons of emails that were sent to Bravo from
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: these high powered attorneys about what was going on in
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: terms of what they uncovered. I won't get too much
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: into that, y'all can look at it yourselves, but Bethany
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and her team of attorneys have been sending Bravo legal
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: team all of these letters. So long story short, Bravo
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: decided to send the email to their production company partners.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: So what that means, guys, is every single show on
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Bravo is produced by a production company. So all of
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: your favorite Housewives shows are produced by several production companies individually.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: So when a network buys a show, a green lcense show,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: they're buying it from the production company, and it's the
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: production company's job to produce the show based on the
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: network mandate in which they want the show to be.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, got it cool.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: So Francis Berwick, who is the chairman in NBC Universal Entertainment,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: sent a note out to external production companies to inform
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: them of the charges. I'm sorry, changes child not frulyan
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: slip okay. She wanted to inform them of the changes,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: and miraculously Deadline obtain a copy of the note. So
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: in Bethany's complaints that we were able to see courtesy
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: of things being leaked, I mean things we saw, I'm sorry.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Allegedly there were tons of reports of alcohol usage on.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: These shows, et cetera, et cetera.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: The first point of the note highlighted alcohol, and what
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: was said was this, building on our current protocols, we
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: will require that you deliver and expanded alcohol related training
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: to the cast, crew and production team, which must include
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: details on how production will monitor alcohol, including when consumption
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: limits may be appropriate and when and how to intervene
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: to maintain cast and crew safety. The reason why this
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: point is interesting is because on Below Deck Under, they
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: were faced with an alcohol related issue with some of
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: its stars. Two crew members were fired due to their
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: non consensual sexual advances to coworkers. Two people were kicked
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: off the yacht for misconduct after producers had to step
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: in following a scary moment that saw one of them
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: climb naked into the bid of another cast member who
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: was too intoxicated to consent and producers could be heard
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: telling him to exit. So that happened recently, which is
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: why the note about alcohol consumption was a point.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: That had to be made. Which is a very interesting.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Point because as we all know right now, well, this
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: incident that I'm about to bring up happened off camera,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: but Shanna Badore from the Real Housewives of Orange County
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: had a dui and she allegedly crashed in someone's home
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: and allegedly her dog Archie was in the car. Now,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: one of the things that we know about the Orange
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: County show is Gina also had a dui that we
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: were able to see follow on the show where she
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: did not go to jail for a long time, and
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I believe she's doing community service and all those things.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Kudos to Gina for working with the law to make
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: sure that she was able to be a mom and
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: learn from her mistakes and move on. When it comes
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: to Shannabadoor, there has been tons of conversations from the
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: cast about her alcohol usage.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: A lot of them have.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Said that Shannon does drink and that Shannon does have
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: a drinking problem.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Allegedly.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: That's what they've been saying for a while. The thing
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: about Shannon is the Newport Beach Police departments Animal Control unit.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: They're investigating this incident because they want to know whether
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: or not the dog, Archie, if he was in the car.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: What does that mean for Shannon not only having to
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: deal with this in a court of law for driving
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: under the influence, but also how animal control is investigating
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: her in regards to her dog. This is a very
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: sad situation. I am praying for you, Shanna Badoor. I
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: wish you nothing but the best in terms of your
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: recovery for I move on and finish up this NBC
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Bethany and need anything. We got to talk about the

• 21:06
  Speaker 2: for details. This is Reality with the King and I'm
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Carlos King. Let's get back into the show. Tamra said
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: that the day after Shannon had the DUI incident, they
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: spoke over the phone and that Shannon never told her,
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: And the way that Tamara found out is the way
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: we found out through the blogs. Just last week, I
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: did an episode about how reality TV friendships are not
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: real and it's an alliance. And y'all read me for
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: philled guard selling Sun's friendship. Like I said, I'm not
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: saying it's they don't like each other. I made a
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: that it's a friendship of convenience and that they have
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: an alliance.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Y'all read me for filth. But this is the gag
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: of the Gagat.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Gags, tamar and Shannon and Vicki called themselves the tres Amigas.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: When Tamara was fired from OC, Shannon stopped calling Tamarra.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: That's a clear sign that the friendship, at least on
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Shannon's part, was not genuine, period, point blank. Then Tamara
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: comes back to the show and all of a sudden,
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: at least on camera, they appeared to be best friends.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: If my best friend got a DUI and I'm speaking
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: to this person the day after it happened and he
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: or she doesn't tell me, we're not real friends because
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it's not like, Okay,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: I'm private.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to know right now.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: You are a celebrity, so you knew it was going
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: to come on the blogs and you chose not to
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: tell Tamara the French is fake, like the blonde and
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Gena's hair, just saying and I love you, Gina. So
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: that goes to show you what I said was right.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Reality TV friendships are alliances, not real friendships.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: But I digress.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: So moving on, NBC Universal addressed the alcohol usage in
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: terms of what's happening on the shows, and they also
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: started to talk about the confidentiality clauses because Beth and
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: they made a big to do about that as well.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: One of Frankel's biggest beefs is what she called an
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: unrealistic NDAs NBC Universe and Bravo has made clear that
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: as confidentiality clauses are not intended to prevent disclosure by
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: cast and crew of unlawful acts in the workplace, and
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: says that it has not enforced them in that manner.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Francis Berwick added, we expect that production companies will ensure
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: that all talent and crew agreements have confidentiality language that
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: carves out reporting of unlawful conduct.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Last, but not.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Least one one point, they also spoke about violence and
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: what that means. Now, it's a very interesting time that
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: it has come out too, because here's some teeth of y'all.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Allegedly Jennifer Aiden and Danielle from the Real Housewives of
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: New Jersey a few days ago, as they're filming the
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: upcoming season, allegedly an altercation happen between Jennifer Aiden and Danielle.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: They're alleging that both of them are put on ice
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: until this incident is investigated. Yes, honey, Yes, So this
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: statement by Brada comes out of very interesting time. So Allegedly,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: on Thursday, September twenty first, the women were filming scenes
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: for the show Teresa throw a party and Jennifer and
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Danielle had an argument that allegedly turned physical. Jennifer Aden
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: allegedly pushed Danielle, who threw a beverage in a plastic
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: cup at Jennifer, and the two of them have been
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: suspended from filming this current season pending an investigation. This
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: is a reality reckoning because a fight on New Jersey,
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: it's low keyboard we expect, child it is what it is.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: No fight on New Jersey is like no scandals on
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Bibley Hills. That's what the girls in Jersey do, honey.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: So this is very shocking because typically when a fight
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: happens on these shows, you talk about it, you move on,
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Danielle style pulling Margaret's ponytail.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: The show must go on. That's how it used to be.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: But the fact that Jennifer Aiden and Danielle Cabral got
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: into a physical altercation and now they're both suspended allegedly
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: from filming until this matter is investigated, that's a reckoning.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: But of course, Bethany Frankel decided to respond to NBC's
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: email that was sent to its production company partners, and
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Bethany had this to say, It's not easy to burn
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: bridges and speak up about what should be obvious to many.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: That's my Bethany voice.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: There are very few times in my career in life
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: when I think certain that I'm on the right path.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: I'll be it a challenging one, but worth the fight
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: for a cause. So you know, Bethany likes to talk
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: child So she went on and on and on. But
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: long story short, she of course made about her souse.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: That's what Bethany does. And I love Bethany, but it
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: is what it is. She said, to the ignorant who
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: have said that people sign up from his treatment, shame
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: on them. To my former colleagues housewives who said that
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: it doesn't apply to them because they know how to
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: handle themselves when others with less power cannot. I can
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: She then thanks Francis Berwick. So Bethany thank all these
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: people as if she want an Emmy or an Oscar
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: or Nobel Peace Prize. And she said, you are a
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: strong example to women, two executives, and to other networks
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: and streamers who have already begun to fall in line
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: and makes changes. Bethany concluded with this, the change is happening.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: The reality reckoning is here. Ps, this conversation is far
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: from over. We are just getting started. And she tagged
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: sag Aftra and deadline.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: So Bethany started to do this.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Reality reckoning thing for a few months now, and a
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: lot of people have noticed that, hmmm, is Bravo releasing
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: this statement because of what Bethany is doing? Like, did
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Bethany truly become this martyr against Bravo to where she's
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: able to make changes? Then a lot of people started
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: to talk about Nini Leaks and all the things that
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Nini Leaks allege a few years ago where people felt
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: like Niini's experience fell on deaf ears and a lot
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: of people are bringing race into this, Nini Leek's being
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: a black woman arguably the number one housewife in the world,
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Bethany Frankel arguably the number three housewife in the world,
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Cousterese's number two. So Nini Leaks, a black woman, addressed
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: her concerns publicly various shows and tweets. For years, nothing happened.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Bethany Frankel hired two high powered attorneys, sent emails, and
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: within a matter of months a statement comes out from
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: the network and Bethany is a white woman. So what
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Nini talked about for years, people call Niini delusional, angry
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: girl is your ego and listen, these are things that
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: people have said. So for years, Nini talked about her experience,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: and according to Nini, this is what she said on
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: this very podcast. She said, when she speaks up, she.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Can no longer work.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: Nini felt that she was blackballed for speaking about her experience,
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: and Nini has said for years she did not work.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Bethany Frankel talks about it for a few.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Months and and an email assent about changes being done
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: about how they operate, so much so that Bethany released
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: around statement thank them for doing the right thing. This
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: is what Bethany said, and pretty much said at the end,
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: this shit still ain't over with, so don't get too comfortable.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: So Bethany has more things going on, more arms and
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: the fire that we have yet to see, and Nini
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: is just now getting back to getting booked for jobs.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: This is what Nini said, not me.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: So a lot of people are saying, once again, it
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: took a white woman to cry foul and she's heard
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: and changes are made, and when a black woman speaks
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: nothing is done. Do you guys think that's a coincidence
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: or do you think race is an issue here? I'm
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: curious to hear from you rain drops what you guys think.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Nini did respond to Bethany's post and said a win
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: is a win, which child? You know, Nini, you know
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: what that really meant.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Allegedly.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Nimi's like, yeah, hmm, this is how the cookie crumbles, child.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: So I want to hear from you all in terms
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: of what you think. Is race involved in this or
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: is it a matter of circumstance or just a coincidence. Obviously,
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Bethany has a lot of money, Bethany knows a lot.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: Bethany rubs elbows with people that may have said things
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: in passing that she allegedly could use against them. And
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: because Bethany is a very powerful woman, yes and a
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: white woman at that, is she able to take the
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: charge and really make changes that she sees fit And
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Nini has to work back from the bottom to make
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: it to the top where she once was. Is it
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: fair or is it a coincidence? I want to hear
• 32:09
