Latest / Reality with The King / RHOC Recap: The Enigma That Is Katie
Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
- 0:07Speaker 1: I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
- 0:10Speaker 1: favorite shows from the Real Housewives in Atlanta, New Jersey
- 0:13Speaker 1: and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise and
- 0:17Speaker 1: Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from the
- 0:23Speaker 1: Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset, in
- 0:27Speaker 1: addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or
- 0:31Speaker 1: scripted as well. Hey, brain drops, for today's episode of
- 0:37Speaker 1: Reality with the King, we have to get into the
- 0:40Speaker 1: Katie show. Look, I love all the girls and all
- 0:45Speaker 1: the girls love me, but we must dissect the fact
- 0:48Speaker 1: that Katie is carrying this show on her back. So far,
- 0:56Speaker 1: so far, it's still early in the season, but this
- 1:00Speaker 1: episode I really enjoyed. This season is definitely getting hot,
- 1:05Speaker 1: so let's just get right into it now. Heath of
- 1:08Speaker 1: de Bro, who was born on January fifth, honey, not
- 1:12Speaker 1: January sixth, shot to Vicky govisent. That was a joke
- 1:29Speaker 1: because Teddy Mellencamp did ask Vicky goversand where she was
- 1:33Speaker 1: on January sixth, So have a sense of humor, rain drops. Okay,
- 1:39Speaker 1: this is not a political podcast. This is one of unfiltered,
- 1:44Speaker 1: unscripted conversations. Okay, So on January fifth, one day before
- 1:52Speaker 1: the insurrection, half of the bro was born. She was
- 2:01Speaker 1: born Meani Meanie Meanie meenie many years before that child. Okay, fine,
- 2:04Speaker 1: let's let's move on from it. So Heather debro Is
- 2:08Speaker 1: during herself a birthday party forty days and forty nights
- 2:13Speaker 1: after her actual birthday. Okay, child, because she told you,
- 2:16Speaker 1: Brokie's look y'all spent all of your unlimited funds in
- 2:22Speaker 1: the savings account on Christmas gifts and New Year's Okay,
- 2:29Speaker 1: and when it's my birthday on the fifth, I want
- 2:34Speaker 1: a Disneyland type of extravaganza. No, not the one with
- 2:38Speaker 1: the Papa ARROSSI caught me and Teddy take Abab Paul
- 2:42Speaker 1: giving each other a PDA. Not that one, child, I'm
- 2:46Speaker 1: talking about the one where I need gifts to Okay.
- 2:51Speaker 1: So instead of keeping it on her actual birthday, she
- 2:55Speaker 1: decided to do it a month later. There we go,
- 3:00Speaker 1: all right. So with that being said, she met with
- 3:05Speaker 1: Shannon and Jen and said to them, look, I'm throwing
- 3:08Speaker 1: a birthday party a month later after my birthday, but
- 3:13Speaker 1: I want to invite the husband. I did speak to Tamra,
- 3:18Speaker 1: and Tamar said, because Ryan and Jen are coming, she
- 3:22Speaker 1: doesn't feel comfortable being there, and on top of that,
- 3:28Speaker 1: she was instructed by her attorney that it is in
- 3:32Speaker 1: her best interest not to attend. Jen freaked out because,
- 3:40Speaker 1: as we all know, I'll give you out the quick
- 3:42Speaker 1: snapshot of the story, Jen's boyfriend, the handsome Ryan child
- 3:52Speaker 1: saving private Ryan Honey was accused of things that apparently
- 4:01Speaker 1: turned out not to be really true. I'm not going
- 4:03Speaker 1: to get to the weeds of it google a child,
- 4:07Speaker 1: but Tamar made a statement about the FBI raiding the
- 4:12Speaker 1: home something of that regards there were allegations that they
- 4:18Speaker 1: were going to sue her. Tamra apologized and said that
- 4:23Speaker 1: you know, she regretted saying it what I found out
- 4:27Speaker 1: this episode because I didn't know this unless you guys did.
- 4:32Speaker 1: I didn't know that Jen and Ryan had to pay
- 4:40Speaker 1: a lot of money and attorney fees to dispute that,
- 4:46Speaker 1: because from what I understand, while there were rumors and
- 4:53Speaker 1: encouragement for Ryan to sue Tamar, he never foiled a
- 4:57Speaker 1: lawsuit against her. So that's why I was confus When
- 5:00Speaker 1: Jen said, well, we spent so much money on attorney
- 5:03Speaker 1: fees because I'm like, but Ryan never filed a laws
- 5:07Speaker 1: suit against Tamera. So I know that attorneys charged you
- 5:11Speaker 1: for a consultation, but how many minutes or hours did
- 5:15Speaker 1: y'all speak to the attorneys to where it accumulated so
- 5:18Speaker 1: much money? That was confusing to me. What I do
- 5:22Speaker 1: know is Ryan supposedly did issue a cease and desist
- 5:27Speaker 1: letter to Tamra that does cost money, okay, to her
- 5:33Speaker 1: after she made statements that he felt were false and damaging. Allegedly, Vicky,
- 5:43Speaker 1: the former og to the OC, had initially encouraged Ryan
- 5:50Speaker 1: to sue. That's alleged that was according to reality T.
- 5:54Speaker 1: It is not according to reality but the king. But
- 5:57Speaker 1: according to reality T, allegedly they're saying Vicky encouraged Ryan
- 6:03Speaker 1: to do it, referencing when another lawsuit occurred, which is
- 6:10Speaker 1: why I was happy to see Timor apologize. But Ryan's
- 6:16Speaker 1: legal action did stop. So look, when it comes to
- 6:23Speaker 1: reality television, what's so interesting is because you're on a
- 6:29Speaker 1: reality show, you can say pretty much what you want
- 6:33Speaker 1: to about a person. That's a clause in your agreements, right,
- 6:38Speaker 1: So rain drops know that in your agreements you can
- 6:42Speaker 1: pretty much say what you want to say about a person,
- 6:46Speaker 1: because on a lot of these shows, when you yell
- 6:50Speaker 1: out wild accusation, it is you're defaming them. But because
- 6:57Speaker 1: it's reality television, it's all my part for the course,
- 7:01Speaker 1: that's that's what happens. Unfortunately, right, would you just say
- 7:04Speaker 1: anything whatever? I do believe? Because Ryan, technically it is
- 7:08Speaker 1: not a cast member. That's probably why he was able
- 7:12Speaker 1: to send a cease and desist and possibly excuse me
- 7:18Speaker 1: decide to do it. But look, I don't like it
- 7:22Speaker 1: when things get legal because I don't want to watch
- 7:24Speaker 1: these shows as if Judge Judy and her bailiff is
- 7:28Speaker 1: going to appear alongside the other attorney on the show,
- 7:33Speaker 1: Honey Emily. Okay, I don't the judge Emily Honey and
- 7:37Speaker 1: her gavel to represent Tamera or Jin in any situation.
- 7:43Speaker 1: I don't like it when things become legal. I just
- 7:46Speaker 1: think for me, it takes the fun out of what
- 7:50Speaker 1: we're watching, and I don't think it's fun. But Ryan
- 7:56Speaker 1: did feel that Tamar's statements on the show were damaging
- 7:59Speaker 1: to his reputation and career, but once again, Tamra did apologize,
- 8:05Speaker 1: So hopefully what we'll see this season is a conversation
- 8:10Speaker 1: between those two about what happened in an effort to
- 8:13Speaker 1: move forward because I don't want to see things get
- 8:18Speaker 1: dark now. What we did see is Heather and Tamra
- 8:25Speaker 1: talking about this situation, and Heaven did say that based
- 8:30Speaker 1: on what Tamra is going through, which is watching her
- 8:34Speaker 1: best friend Teddy Mellencamp go through this cancer journey, having
- 8:39Speaker 1: to have multiple surgeries is devastating to her emotionally, tamar
- 8:45Speaker 1: did emote that she goes down the rabbit hole of
- 8:49Speaker 1: the photos between her and Teddy or just Teddy, you know,
- 8:54Speaker 1: in general, because she misses her and she wants to
- 8:59Speaker 1: make sure or that her best friend obviously survives this,
- 9:02Speaker 1: and while she's hopeful that she will, it is still
- 9:06Speaker 1: something in the back of her mind in terms of
- 9:08Speaker 1: what if she doesn't. And that's when Heather decided to
- 9:11Speaker 1: approm all of us that she is seeing a different
- 9:14Speaker 1: side of Tamra. She's seeing growth, and she is seeing
- 9:17Speaker 1: somebody that is way more balanced than what we see.
- 9:23Speaker 1: And based on these few episodes, I will say we
- 9:27Speaker 1: haven't seen Tamarra and her typical villain era because Katie
- 9:33Speaker 1: decided to take the baton twirling and enter Shannon space.
- 9:39Speaker 1: We'll get to that later in the episode. So my
- 9:43Speaker 1: heart goes out to Tamara. Obviously, my heart goes out
- 9:46Speaker 1: to Gin. Two things can be true, right, Two things
- 9:50Speaker 1: can be true When someone makes an accusation that you
- 9:56Speaker 1: feel like is going to ruin your reputation, that's not
- 10:00Speaker 1: okay at all. And I understand the grievances that Ryan
- 10:06Speaker 1: and Jen have because it is an emotional turmoil to
- 10:10Speaker 1: deal with that. So I definitely understand where Jen's coming from.
- 10:14Speaker 1: I also understand where Tamra's attorney is coming from when
- 10:19Speaker 1: he says, I don't want you around them, well, particularly
- 10:25Speaker 1: specifically Ryan, because look, when you poke Tamra, Tamra's liable
- 10:31Speaker 1: to go off of you and may say things she regrets.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Ryan is the same way you poke Ryan, Honey, Ryan
- 10:40Speaker 1: is liable to go after you and say things that
- 10:43Speaker 1: he may regret. So I understand the attorneys saying I
- 10:48Speaker 1: just don't trust you two to be in the same
- 10:50Speaker 1: room because if one of you guys poke, the other
- 10:54Speaker 1: things can be said that will cause things to take
- 11:00Speaker 1: a severe legal action. And that's the last thing that
- 11:03Speaker 1: we want to see, at least for me, I don't
- 11:06Speaker 1: want to see that. I want to see Ryan getting
- 11:08Speaker 1: a tan, Honey. I want to see Ryan goes shopping
- 11:11Speaker 1: at Tommy Bahama, Honey for some shorts, okay, at a
- 11:15Speaker 1: tank top. I'm just saying that's what I want to see.
- 11:19Speaker 1: I ain't trying to see anything lego, not at all,
- 11:26Speaker 1: Not at all. This is reality with the King, and
- 11:31Speaker 1: I'm Carlos King. Let's get back into the show. But
- 11:35Speaker 1: one thing that I was very happy to see, Honey
- 11:38Speaker 1: is Shanna ba door checking Katie so at heav is
- 11:44Speaker 1: the bro party. Katie and Shannon finally have a one
- 11:49Speaker 1: on one and this is where we learned that. And Katie,
- 11:53Speaker 1: I've been trying my best to see your side of things,
- 11:58Speaker 1: but you make it hard for me to not call
- 12:02Speaker 1: you Katie b Lyon. You have taken the trophy away
- 12:09Speaker 1: from me. A pro potomac, Katie, you are a liar,
- 12:12Speaker 1: liar pants on fire. And it's so evident because once
- 12:18Speaker 1: you're confronted with something in real time, you look like
- 12:22Speaker 1: Bambi Deer in the headlights and you don't have words
- 12:29Speaker 1: until you go home and you recite everything in your
- 12:34Speaker 1: mind and you come up with a storyline and and
- 12:38Speaker 1: and lies girl, okay, and excuse this? Then you want
- 12:45Speaker 1: to bring it back to them saying, oh, by the way,
- 12:47Speaker 1: you know, yes, I found the DM. I did call
- 12:51Speaker 1: her like girl. You knew that last week. So this
- 12:53Speaker 1: week Shannon clocked it once. Katie said to her, well,
- 12:58Speaker 1: I text you apologizing, and Shanna's like you text me
- 13:06Speaker 1: and was making excuses for your actions. And that's the
- 13:10Speaker 1: problem that I'm having with Katie. Why does it take
- 13:15Speaker 1: three business days for your brain to work to where
- 13:22Speaker 1: the memory chip is activated and you're able to compute
- 13:27Speaker 1: words that you use your manicured fingers and your samsunk
- 13:33Speaker 1: android okay girl, maybe an iPhone sixteen and you text
- 13:41Speaker 1: all of a sudden your memory worked, what are we doing?
- 13:44Speaker 1: And makes those sens to me? Katie makes those sys
- 13:47Speaker 1: to me and my friend Alexis Menlino came on last week,
- 13:52Speaker 1: was a great episode. Listened to I Love Me some
- 13:54Speaker 1: Alexis and she said, Carlos, I know you're heard on Katie,
- 13:57Speaker 1: but you know, I don't think she's a let'ious person.
- 14:01Speaker 1: And I trust Alexa's opinion, but the problem is I'm
- 14:06Speaker 1: not seeing on the show what Alexis knows in real life.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And that's why I'm having a hard time digesting Katie
- 14:16Speaker 1: because I find her. I find her to be an enigma.
- 14:25Speaker 1: I just I just don't get her. I don't get her.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I just but look, Katie, if you're listening, honey, come
- 14:35Speaker 1: on Reality with the King. Honey. I would love to
- 14:38Speaker 1: have you on because maybe I'm missing something and I
- 14:42Speaker 1: would love to give you the benefit of the doubt.
- 14:44Speaker 1: My doors are open to you. Kt to come on
- 14:48Speaker 1: the show, honey and be held not accomfortable, a caterable. Okay,
- 14:54Speaker 1: So moving on, Shannon is like, look, you recorded me
- 15:02Speaker 1: and that's illego. Now before y'all laugh, let's have a
- 15:12Speaker 1: real conversation. Okay. I want you guys to know this
- 15:18Speaker 1: because I do my research. I am a journalist. Hey, Portiche. So,
- 15:23Speaker 1: as you all know, the show is taped in the
- 15:26Speaker 1: state of California. So while Katie and the rest of
- 15:30Speaker 1: the cast members were doing a photoshoot, Katie recorded Shannon's outburst.
- 15:40Speaker 1: Alexis Blito confirmed last week that it wasn't a video,
- 15:44Speaker 1: it was audio only. Okay. So when Shannon tells Katie
- 15:49Speaker 1: what she did was illego, this is what she meant
- 15:52Speaker 1: by it. In the state of California, you generally cannot
- 15:58Speaker 1: record a conversation without the consent of all parties involved.
- 16:04Speaker 1: California is a two party consent state, meaning that all
- 16:09Speaker 1: parties to a conversation must agree to be recorded. This
- 16:14Speaker 1: is based on the California Penal Code Section six thirty two,
- 16:18Speaker 1: which makes it illegal to record a confidential communication without
- 16:23Speaker 1: the consent of all parties. Now, granted, it wasn't like
- 16:28Speaker 1: Katie and Shannon were talking and having their own conversation
- 16:33Speaker 1: that she recorded, so there is a loophole there. However,
- 16:39Speaker 1: Shannon isn't all the way wrong because recording somebody without
- 16:43Speaker 1: their consent is illegal in the state of California. So
- 16:48Speaker 1: that's what she meant by that. Now what we all
- 16:51Speaker 1: know is, Shanna Badoor, you recorded Kelly Dodd video okay
- 17:01Speaker 1: audio in Ireland without Kelly Do's consent. Now this is
- 17:09Speaker 1: the gag of the Gaga gags. Once again. I'm a journalist,
- 17:13Speaker 1: So here are the facts. In Ireland, you can generally
- 17:20Speaker 1: record conversations or phone calls if you are a party
- 17:24Speaker 1: to them, without needing to inform the other participants. This
- 17:31Speaker 1: is known as one party consent. Emily, I'm doing your
- 17:37Speaker 1: job as a lawyer. Okay. While it's not illegal to
- 17:41Speaker 1: record without informing the other parties, there can be legal
- 17:45Speaker 1: implications depending on the context of the recording and how
- 17:51Speaker 1: it's used. So Shannon legally recorded Kelly in Ireland because
- 17:58Speaker 1: in Ireland it's a one party consent. So there you
- 18:02Speaker 1: have it. There you have it. There you have it.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Now Shannon did say watch what Happens Live When Andy
- 18:11Speaker 1: said to her, we a girl. They said, you recorded
- 18:13Speaker 1: Kelly Dodd. She said, Look, the producers tell us when
- 18:17Speaker 1: they're not around filming us to take out our phones
- 18:22Speaker 1: and record so that they're able to use it in
- 18:24Speaker 1: case there's any big moments on their activities. And as
- 18:30Speaker 1: a producer, I can't confirm that's exactly what happens, that
- 18:35Speaker 1: does happen, because there's only a certain amount of time
- 18:39Speaker 1: of window, well window of tom excuse me, where the
- 18:43Speaker 1: crew is able to work after that window. If the
- 18:49Speaker 1: girls want to go out, the crew cannot go out
- 18:52Speaker 1: because they need to rest, eat and all these other things. Right,
- 18:55Speaker 1: So as producers, we do tell our cast, look, if
- 19:01Speaker 1: you see anything crazy or something big happens, recording on
- 19:05Speaker 1: your phone. So that we can use it in the show.
- 19:10Speaker 1: And that's why in a lot of these shows where
- 19:12Speaker 1: they are out of the country or after hours, you
- 19:16Speaker 1: see more phone cam footage than camera footage. Okay, that's
- 19:21Speaker 1: what happened. Now. One thing Shannon also got right was
- 19:27Speaker 1: when Katie was like, well, when I recorded you, I
- 19:29Speaker 1: was on a business call and you were acting out.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Once again, I'm with Shannon. If you are on a
- 19:36Speaker 1: business call, why not leave the room? Why not go
- 19:40Speaker 1: to your dressing room? Why not go to the bathroom.
- 19:46Speaker 1: If I'm on a business call and Shannon Bador is
- 19:50Speaker 1: acting out, I'm not going to record her unless I'm
- 19:56Speaker 1: going to use it against her in the future. Let's
- 19:58Speaker 1: call it what it is. Allegedly Allegedly. Allegedly, there have
- 20:03Speaker 1: been conversations that Shannon does how outburst off camera. The
- 20:10Speaker 1: girls have said it, other another show has said a
- 20:14Speaker 1: child It has been said that Shannon has an outburst. Now, look,
- 20:19Speaker 1: that is very believable based on Shannon's behavior on the show,
- 20:26Speaker 1: because she will leave a room say take this effing
- 20:30Speaker 1: mic off of me, Like, that's what Shanna does, It's
- 20:33Speaker 1: what she does. So, in my opinion, what Katie wanted
- 20:38Speaker 1: to do was not only to record it and play
- 20:42Speaker 1: it for Tamra, which she did, and then Tamra told
- 20:46Speaker 1: Alexis Billina about it. Alexis cleared that up to on
- 20:48Speaker 1: the show. She wanted evidence in terms of how Shannon
- 20:53Speaker 1: acts off camera. That's that's exactly what I believe Katie
- 20:57Speaker 1: what's doing. And that's the reason why you say, See,
- 21:01Speaker 1: Shannon's so fired up because she knows that you're trying
- 21:04Speaker 1: to embarrass me. And although I've had it with Tamra,
- 21:10Speaker 1: I've gotten into it with other people. They never recorded me,
- 21:18Speaker 1: but the only person who did was John when John
- 21:23Speaker 1: recorded her the night of the Dui. And that's why
- 21:26Speaker 1: she said to her, look, I am worried about your
- 21:33Speaker 1: mental state and puts her in the same category as
- 21:39Speaker 1: John due to the recording. She also tells Kati, you
- 21:44Speaker 1: are the most evil person I've ever met. Now, Shannon, girl,
- 21:51Speaker 1: that's a stretch. Does your arm hurt? Is out the socket?
- 21:56Speaker 1: Where's your elbow? That was a stretch? Go to pilates, Boo, Katie,
- 22:04Speaker 1: being the most evil person you met is a stretch. Now, look,
- 22:08Speaker 1: we all know what happened with your ex husband. I
- 22:11Speaker 1: am not calling David evil once again, I am not
- 22:14Speaker 1: calling David evil. I don't know him, so I'm not
- 22:17Speaker 1: going to use that word to describe him. But what
- 22:21Speaker 1: a lot of people do feel is cheating to them
- 22:24Speaker 1: when you're married. They do feel like that action is evil.
- 22:28Speaker 1: It's an evil action. It doesn't make you an evil
- 22:30Speaker 1: person for most people, but a lot of people do
- 22:33Speaker 1: think cheating while you're married is an evil action they do,
- 22:42Speaker 1: which is why for me, it was so confusing that
- 22:45Speaker 1: she would say that when I've seen worse things happen
- 22:49Speaker 1: to Shannon. I mean, David and Shannon got divorced in
- 22:56Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. A year later. He again, like a lot
- 23:04Speaker 1: of people would say that's bad. So I think Shannon
- 23:08Speaker 1: was reaching, Although I agree with her in terms of
- 23:11Speaker 1: what Katie did was wrong. I think that's when Shannon
- 23:14Speaker 1: sort of like loses me when she goes the extra
- 23:17Speaker 1: mile and say things that makes no sense to me,
- 23:22Speaker 1: that made no sense to me and Katie, Katie, hey girl,
- 23:26Speaker 1: I'm about to have your back. Katie did not deserve
- 23:29Speaker 1: to be called the most evil person that she's ever met. Now,
- 23:36Speaker 1: with that being said, could there be any validity to
- 23:42Speaker 1: whether or not Katie is actually evil? So hear me out.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Gina went on Housewives Nightcap podcast and when Gina was
- 23:57Speaker 1: asked about rumors that Katie would not be returning next season.
- 24:02Speaker 1: This is what Gina said. Well, I don't make those decisions.
- 24:08Speaker 1: I will say that I haven't seen her in a
- 24:11Speaker 1: very long time and I have no plans to see her,
- 24:16Speaker 1: And I will say that honestly, I'm sort of to
- 24:19Speaker 1: the point where if she was to be a part
- 24:23Speaker 1: of this group next year, I would seriously question whether
- 24:28Speaker 1: I want it to be. Now, look, Gina, you know
- 24:31Speaker 1: I love you, unless you really are selling homes the
- 24:35Speaker 1: way Josh flag Is or Josh Autman, Gina have several
- 24:43Speaker 1: seats at the Barclay Center like girl. But look, with
- 24:48Speaker 1: that being said, it's Katie that evil, It's Katie that ebol.
- 24:54Speaker 1: It's Katie so evil that Gina will lose her check
- 24:59Speaker 1: if she's back on the show. That that's a very
- 25:04Speaker 1: strong statement. Gina, come on the podcast, let's talk about
- 25:06Speaker 1: a girl. What has Katie done to where you have
- 25:11Speaker 1: Shanna saying she's the most evil purchase she's met. Now, granted,
- 25:16Speaker 1: when Shanna said that, all we know is she spoke
- 25:20Speaker 1: to a blogger about Emily's kids. And the other thing
- 25:24Speaker 1: we know is she recorded Shanna's outburst. I think that's bad.
