- 0:43Speaker 1: And I love recapping this show with Alexis Jansen because,
- 0:48Speaker 1: you know, it's moments like this when Alexis Jansen activates
- 0:53Speaker 1: an episode that I have the privilege of of getting
- 0:57Speaker 1: the exclusive because she's my co-host, as you all know.
- 1:01Speaker 2: And Alexis, in.
- 1:04Speaker 1: The words of Ramona Singer, formerly of the Real Housewives
- 1:09Speaker 1: of New York City, wow, Bethany, wow.
- 1:16Speaker 3: Okay, well, I'll start with this part. It was hard
- 1:21Speaker 3: for me to watch. There's a lot left out, but
- 1:24Speaker 3: that's okay. We'll get to that point. But it was, yeah,
- 1:28Speaker 3: my poor kids, I'm like, okay, they have to, like,
- 1:32Speaker 3: this is why they come to me and they say, mom,
- 1:33Speaker 3: we want nothing to do with your entertainment world. And
- 1:36Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, you don't.
- 1:37Speaker 2: So good.
- 1:37Speaker 3: I'm glad y'all have different career paths.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Look, it's funny, like with parents, do, don't, what was it?
- 1:51Speaker 1: What's the, what's the, what's the, the, the phrase, Alexis?
- 1:55Speaker 1: Do what I say, not what I do.
- 1:57Speaker 3: Do what I say, not what I do.
- 1:59Speaker 1: That's the Alexis Jackson model as a mommy.
- 2:06Speaker 3: So true. I mean, like, honestly, Carlos, what's so weird,
- 2:10Speaker 3: I've never been in a position where I'm recapping about
- 2:13Speaker 3: an episode that involves me that I know the emotions
- 2:15Speaker 3: I had at the time that now I have to
- 2:17Speaker 3: clarify and I feel like I have to defend myself,
- 2:19Speaker 3: but I don't really have to defend myself because that
- 2:20Speaker 3: was pretty, you know, I was emotional, but it's like,
- 2:24Speaker 3: I definitely overreacted.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:27Speaker 3: I'll give you that.
- 2:28Speaker 4: I overreacted.
- 2:29Speaker 3: I was, here's the entire thing that was going on
- 2:33Speaker 3: in my mind. Didn't want to be there. Felt like
- 2:38Speaker 3: they were looking to pick a fight for, you know,
- 2:41Speaker 3: the camera and needed a moment to make the season
- 2:45Speaker 3: somewhat pop.
- 2:46Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Fine with that. But then what they didn't show, and
- 2:49Speaker 3: I don't know where you want to go, Carla. Like,
- 2:51Speaker 3: we don't talk. So I don't know where you want
- 2:53Speaker 3: to go.
- 2:54Speaker 2: We don't talk, right.
- 2:56Speaker 3: So what I was going to say, and tell me
- 2:58Speaker 3: if I'm going too soon and you want to back
- 3:00Speaker 3: up about it, but where they didn't show a lot
- 3:04Speaker 3: of it was the talk between Heather and I.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Okay, so let's start here then because what was interesting.
- 3:13Speaker 2: As I was watching... was part two.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Not part two of the episode, because it was a
- 3:20Speaker 1: continuation from last week.
- 3:22Speaker 2: I mean part two of y'all conversation.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Because y'all had one at the top of the episode,
- 3:28Speaker 1: and then y'all had a second one. So before we
- 3:29Speaker 1: get into that, because again, like you said, don't know
- 3:32Speaker 1: where you're going with it, but I do want to
- 3:34Speaker 1: start at least with how the episode began. And what
- 3:40Speaker 1: was so interesting is you and Heather... are having a standoff.
- 3:47Speaker 1: It gave like one of those old school cowboy movies
- 3:52Speaker 1: where you're like, and you're standing with your harness and
- 4:00Speaker 1: your weapon.
- 4:02Speaker 2: So in this moment, Alexis, we have.
- 4:07Speaker 1: You know, you're telling Heather she's insecure. Heather is saying
- 4:10Speaker 1: she's not insecure. And she says, bye, bitch. Which I
- 4:17Speaker 1: thought was.
- 4:19Speaker 2: So... Good TV.
- 4:25Speaker 3: You think I'm Heather and I think good TV. So
- 4:27Speaker 3: it's okay.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Which goes hand in hand.
- 4:31Speaker 3: It does.
- 4:32Speaker 2: It works.
- 4:32Speaker 3: It works. I... I couldn't even form words because I
- 4:38Speaker 3: was so hurt by even her, like, I thought she'd
- 4:42Speaker 3: come out and be like, oh my gosh, I can
- 4:44Speaker 3: see you're upset. Like I was visibly like trying to
- 4:46Speaker 3: hold back tears that whole time. I thought she'd come
- 4:49Speaker 3: out and be like, oh my gosh, you're actually upset
- 4:51Speaker 3: because I thought we were friends, right? Like still kind
- 4:53Speaker 3: of whatever, somewhat friends. And I still think, I don't
- 4:56Speaker 3: even know. We'll get into, we'll unpack all that as
- 4:58Speaker 3: this episode goes on. But, um, it was just so
- 5:03Speaker 3: much because I didn't want to go. I felt there
- 5:06Speaker 3: was something in my gut saying, this is going to happen.
- 5:08Speaker 3: Something's going to happen. They've got something up their sleeves.
- 5:11Speaker 3: And it did. And I didn't have my composure. I
- 5:15Speaker 3: was emotional. I had PTSD from season 18. And I just,
- 5:21Speaker 3: I did lose it. And I'm okay with that. You
- 5:24Speaker 3: know what? I live in the, because this is what
- 5:27Speaker 3: I've always taught my kids. is you don't hold your
- 5:30Speaker 3: feelings back because if you do, then it's all going
- 5:34Speaker 3: to be inside and you can't get it out. Well,
- 5:36Speaker 3: guess what I've done? I've withheld a lot of moving
- 5:40Speaker 3: forward to the inside scene. I've held a lot in
- 5:43Speaker 3: about how I feel about what Heather did to me
- 5:46Speaker 3: after season 18. So yeah, I did have a moment
- 5:52Speaker 3: on camera and it was real. And this is the
- 5:54Speaker 3: thing about reality TV, Carlos, that's so interesting is that
- 5:59Speaker 3: It is real time. And they don't, they can cut
- 6:01Speaker 3: and edit it however they want it to be portrayed
- 6:04Speaker 3: or whatever they want it to show. But it's real.
- 6:06Speaker 3: You're not on a script. It is real TV. So
- 6:11Speaker 3: if I would have known, you know, looking back that
- 6:14Speaker 3: I would have behaved that way or had those emotions
- 6:16Speaker 3: just come overflowing to where my husband couldn't even calm
- 6:19Speaker 3: me down, then I would have said no. But that's
- 6:23Speaker 3: what I felt in the Uber on the way there.
- 6:26Speaker 3: So why didn't I say no then? But when we
- 6:28Speaker 3: move inside and you want to talk about inside, then
- 6:31Speaker 3: we can talk.
- 6:33Speaker 1: So let's talk about the fact that, you know, Heather
- 6:38Speaker 1: says that you're mad because she told Shannon about the
- 6:45Speaker 1: footage that.
- 6:47Speaker 2: John had of the crash.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And Heather said you nor John told her not to
- 6:53Speaker 1: tell Shannon because And that even if you did, she
- 6:56Speaker 1: would have done it anyway. She would have told Shannon anyway.
- 7:00Speaker 1: How did that make you feel?
- 7:02Speaker 3: Well, you know how it made me feel because I
- 7:03Speaker 3: looked at the cameras and said, thank you for capturing that.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Because it shows you exactly Heather's, Heather had no point. Okay,
- 7:13Speaker 3: so let me back up real quick. When John and I,
- 7:16Speaker 3: it was John, by the way, that disclosed this information
- 7:18Speaker 3: to Heather because it was not mine to share with her.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Okay.
- 7:21Speaker 2: Okay.
- 7:22Speaker 3: I did know about the videos. I do know about
- 7:24Speaker 3: the whole incidents. I have watched it all. I know
- 7:26Speaker 3: it all. However, it's not mine to share. It's John's.
- 7:31Speaker 3: But yet I'm the one that's the TV character and
- 7:35Speaker 3: trying to live a reality life. So it all kind
- 7:38Speaker 3: of came to a head. We told Heather in confidence.
- 7:42Speaker 3: And yes, she did know it was in confidence. And
- 7:44Speaker 3: by the way, Carlos... She told us, do not ever
- 7:47Speaker 3: tell anyone this information. You cannot share this with anyone.
- 7:51Speaker 3: This is you guys need to go twice. She told
- 7:53Speaker 3: us that on the phone. And then when we were
- 7:55Speaker 3: at Rare Society Restaurant, she said, do not ever share
- 7:57Speaker 3: this information, Alexis. You guys cannot. And John always said,
- 8:01Speaker 3: what's wrong with the truth? My truth is not bad.
- 8:04Speaker 3: You know what?
- 8:05Speaker 1: Hey, John.
- 8:06Speaker 3: Hold on a second.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Hold on.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Hold on. Johnny.
- 8:10Speaker 4: Raindrops.
- 8:11Speaker 2: I think she's getting John. We're about to get an exclusive.
- 8:14Speaker 3: Here's the problem, Carlos. I'm about to start. I don't
- 8:17Speaker 3: even know if he's going to do this.
- 8:18Speaker 5: Okay.
- 8:18Speaker 3: I have a favor and we can, I know we
- 8:19Speaker 3: can cut all this. I'm so mad and my heart's racing,
- 8:22Speaker 3: but here's the deal. There was never honey.
- 8:25Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 8:26Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 8:26Speaker 4: Okay.
- 8:29Speaker 3: He's dressed in pajamas. I don't even know.
- 8:34Speaker 5: Okay.
- 8:34Speaker 3: We can cut Carlos. We can cut.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Good morning, John.
- 8:37Speaker 3: Okay. I'm about to say the truth and I don't
- 8:44Speaker 3: want to speak for you, but here's the thing we
- 8:46Speaker 3: were just talking about and we have a flight to catch.
- 8:48Speaker 3: So you've got to make this quick. If you even
- 8:50Speaker 3: want it, this is the problem. We have 44 minutes
- 8:53Speaker 3: to get through this whole episode.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Go ahead.
- 8:55Speaker 3: I feel if I'm, I'm about to, you're on the
- 8:57Speaker 3: whole Heather. I'm talking about the, what happened last night
- 9:02Speaker 3: when Heather said, okay, here's, let me back up real quick.
- 9:06Speaker 3: So when we went inside and I'm talking to Heather and,
- 9:11Speaker 3: They cut out like 12 minutes of our conversation. I
- 9:15Speaker 3: was actually telling Heather, my beef with you is that
- 9:17Speaker 3: after season 18, you disclosed that John was physically assaulted
- 9:22Speaker 3: by Shannon. Never Heather's to share. That's when they picked
- 9:25Speaker 3: cameras up after the reunion. That was the nail in
- 9:27Speaker 3: my coffin.
- 9:28Speaker 4: Okay.
- 9:28Speaker 3: I was still upset about that. They cut all that out.
- 9:30Speaker 4: Okay.
- 9:31Speaker 3: They then cut to when Heather goes, oh, but John
- 9:36Speaker 3: heard the crash. Okay.
- 9:38Speaker 4: Okay. OK, I get.
- 9:40Speaker 2: OK, so.
- 9:41Speaker 1: So, John, first of all, good morning. You guys have
- 9:45Speaker 1: a flight to catch and I appreciate.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Going on the flight in pajamas. That's why you only
- 9:50Speaker 3: have 44 minutes. I can't.
- 9:50Speaker 2: I know.
- 9:51Speaker 3: I know.
- 9:52Speaker 2: I know.
- 9:53Speaker 1: So so I want to make I want to make
- 9:54Speaker 1: sure I understand why you brought him in. So, John, Alexis,
- 9:59Speaker 1: your beautiful wife, was telling us that when you and
- 10:04Speaker 1: her were with Heather, I'm assuming Terry was there, that
- 10:09Speaker 1: when you spoke about having the footage of the crash,
- 10:12Speaker 1: Alexis said that Heather told you guys, do not tell
- 10:15Speaker 1: anybody this information and keep it to yourself.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Well, Yeah, what she told people not to tell anybody
- 10:25Speaker 4: about was that I heard the crash. And here's the
- 10:29Speaker 4: part like.
- 10:30Speaker 3: But yet then she goes back on national camera or
- 10:32Speaker 3: national television and lets everyone known unbeknownst to us and
- 10:35Speaker 3: also private information that we did never want to share
- 10:38Speaker 3: with anyone. We were going to take... Hold on. Now
- 10:41Speaker 3: I'm regretting inviting you in.
- 10:43Speaker 2: Okay.
- 10:44Speaker 3: We told each other we were going to take this
- 10:47Speaker 3: to the grave.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Okay?
- 10:48Speaker 3: Okay. John had every opportunity to share this with America.
- 10:54Speaker 3: All of the season 18 that the footage we had
- 10:56Speaker 3: and all this, we decided, you know what? We're going
- 10:59Speaker 3: to protect Shannon and not tell anyone. Well, Thank you, Heather,
- 11:04Speaker 3: for giving us this platform because now we have to
- 11:07Speaker 3: and we don't even want to. But guess what? I
- 11:09Speaker 3: was going to do it. And then I'm like, you know,
- 11:11Speaker 3: and in my mind just now, Carlos, I'm like, everyone's
- 11:13Speaker 3: going to beat me up because I'm speaking for John again.
- 11:16Speaker 3: He happens to be packing, taking care of our dogs,
- 11:18Speaker 3: getting us out of this house. So guess what? Now
- 11:21Speaker 3: he can tell us. Finally tell. Thank you, Heather, for
- 11:24Speaker 3: your un... thoughtfulness of sharing information that was never yours
- 11:29Speaker 3: to share. John, please tell Little Kate.
- 11:31Speaker 4: The problem, Carlos, is, and I mean, you know this
- 11:36Speaker 4: as a producer more than anybody, that reality TV a
- 11:39Speaker 4: lot of times is not real. And what I mean
- 11:43Speaker 4: by that is there are so many lies by omission.
- 11:47Speaker 4: And the Heather comment, I mean, even the way it
- 11:51Speaker 4: came out where they said, Heather told Shannon that that,
- 11:57Speaker 4: you know, I had disclosed that he hit me. You know,
- 12:02Speaker 4: and I never wanted to talk about this, but I'm
- 12:04Speaker 4: so sick of being the bad guy. Let me talk.
- 12:08Speaker 4: So I'm so sick of being the bad guy and
- 12:11Speaker 4: this false narrative that's out there about me that is
- 12:14Speaker 4: so unfair. And I like Terry and Heather, and I
- 12:19Speaker 4: don't know why she's doing this, but she keeps bringing
- 12:22Speaker 4: this up that John heard the crash as if it's
- 12:24Speaker 4: some kind of a smoking gun. And that comment by
- 12:28Speaker 4: itself does kind of make me look bad. So the
- 12:31Speaker 4: audience is left thinking, wow, he heard the crash and
- 12:35Speaker 4: he didn't do anything. So here's the truth, is that
- 12:41Speaker 4: that night was a horrible night. And everybody talks about
- 12:45Speaker 4: Shannon got in her car because she was so upset
- 12:48Speaker 4: by this horrible fight that she had. There was no
- 12:52Speaker 4: fight on my side. Shannon showed up. We were broken up.
- 12:56Speaker 4: She showed up at my house uninvited and inebriated beyond
- 13:00Speaker 4: belief and had lost her phone. And I'm always the
- 13:04Speaker 4: person that solved her problems. And so I helped her
- 13:07Speaker 4: find her phone, but I didn't bring it back to
- 13:10Speaker 4: my house. I left it on the front door of
- 13:14Speaker 4: the house she was staying at, which was 150 yards
- 13:17Speaker 4: away from my home, because I didn't want her to
- 13:21Speaker 4: be staying at my home. I wanted her out of
- 13:23Speaker 4: my home. When she realized I didn't bring the phone back,
- 13:27Speaker 4: she went into a Tasmanian devil-like craze and physically attacked me,
- 13:34Speaker 4: not hitting me once, but just a barrage of scratches
- 13:38Speaker 4: and punches and kicks and And all I was doing
- 13:42Speaker 4: is trying to just back away and prevent myself from
- 13:47Speaker 4: getting hurt. I never put a hand on her. Okay,
- 13:54Speaker 4: so that's important that I was physically attacked for about
- 13:58Speaker 4: five minutes. Then my daughters show up and the thing
- 14:03Speaker 4: goes out front and I tell my daughters what's going on.
- 14:06Speaker 4: Shannon comes out, she's screaming and yelling in the neighborhood.
- 14:09Speaker 4: Lights are going on. People are waking up and she's
- 14:13Speaker 4: trying to get in her car. I am physically preventing
- 14:16Speaker 4: her from getting in her car. And other people don't
- 14:19Speaker 4: know this. I was trying everything I could in my
- 14:22Speaker 4: power without putting hands on her to not have her
- 14:26Speaker 4: get in her car and drive. I offered Ubers. She
- 14:29Speaker 4: could walk home easily. And finally, Because people are starting
- 14:36Speaker 4: to come outside, I step aside and I remember saying, Shannon,
- 14:42Speaker 4: you're a drunk idiot and you're going to be arrested tonight. Ominous,
- 14:47Speaker 4: you know, prophecy there because she was in fact arrested.
- 14:52Speaker 4: She pulls out of my driveway, like floors it backwards. Ominous?
- 15:00Speaker 4: Literally comes within a half an inch of hitting one
- 15:04Speaker 4: of my daughters. And it blows me away that the
- 15:07Speaker 4: Bravo audience just kisses that off as no big deal.
- 15:12Speaker 4: If anybody in the audience that hears this had their
- 15:17Speaker 4: daughter almost hit by a car by a drunk maniac,
- 15:22Speaker 4: would they blow it off as, oh, no big deal?
- 15:26Speaker 4: It was a big deal.
- 15:27Speaker 1: So.
- 15:29Speaker 4: So when I was trying to prevent her from getting
- 15:31Speaker 4: in the car, she attacks me again. Again, lights are
- 15:35Speaker 4: going on. People are coming outside. I'm being physically assaulted again.
- 15:39Speaker 4: So I stepped aside and I said those words. She
- 15:42Speaker 4: got in, pulls out, goes around. Of course, I hear
- 15:46Speaker 4: the crash. My instinct is to go run to the crash.
- 15:49Speaker 4: I start to do that. Both my daughters stop me
- 15:52Speaker 4: and say.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Dad, you can see they yank on his shirt and say, no, dad,
- 15:57Speaker 3: don't go. We'll go.
- 15:59Speaker 4: So they wanted to prevent me getting near her where
- 16:03Speaker 4: she attacks me again and there's another big scene. So
- 16:07Speaker 4: they said, we will go. They immediately went to check
- 16:12Speaker 4: out on my behalf to see that Shannon was okay.
- 16:16Speaker 4: That when they go around the corner, Shannon is pulling
- 16:20Speaker 4: away from the scene of the crime. So we are
- 16:23Speaker 4: left to assume she must be okay. She's drove away
- 16:27Speaker 4: from the scene of the crime.
- 16:29Speaker 3: But then an hour later, Archie shows up. Okay, we
- 16:31Speaker 3: gotta go.
- 16:32Speaker 4: So I'm almost done with the story. So basically then
- 16:36Speaker 4: the police arrive at my house an hour later with Archie.
- 16:40Speaker 4: And so I took Archie in and took care of him.
- 16:45Speaker 4: It was obvious to me what had happened. She had
- 16:48Speaker 4: been arrested. I was on the phone with Shannon's daughters
- 16:52Speaker 4: literally all night long. I did not sleep. I was
- 16:56Speaker 4: there at the jail to pick her up the next morning. Remember,
- 17:00Speaker 4: we're broken up and she had attacked me and done
- 17:02Speaker 4: all this stuff. I put it all aside. And in
- 17:06Speaker 4: her darkest moment, I took care of her. I picked
- 17:09Speaker 4: her up. I picked 10 days. I picked her up
- 17:12Speaker 4: from jail. I took her home. I went and got
- 17:16Speaker 4: her groceries. I fed her. I bathed her. I took
- 17:20Speaker 4: her to her doctor's appointments. I took care of this
- 17:24Speaker 4: woman and then delivered her to Vicki Gumbelson's house on
- 17:28Speaker 4: the 10th day. At that point, there's some other things
- 17:31Speaker 4: that happened that I finally called Shannon and said, I
- 17:34Speaker 4: can't be in your life. It's too chaotic. There's too
- 17:38Speaker 4: much negative that comes with it for me and my family.
- 17:42Speaker 4: And that's when I completely cut ties with Shannon. So
- 17:47Speaker 4: back to the lie by omission. I don't understand Heather
- 17:53Speaker 4: Dubrow isolating this one comment. John heard the crash.
- 17:57Speaker 3: By the way, Heather heard all of this. John disclosed
- 18:00Speaker 3: and was so thought like, like thought he was sharing
- 18:03Speaker 3: it with good.
- 18:04Speaker 4: Friends to be short. Let me make it short. Cause I'm,
- 18:06Speaker 4: I'm wrapping this up. A lie by omission is that,
- 18:11Speaker 4: you know, all the information, and you choose to disclose
- 18:16Speaker 4: one piece of it that leaves a very false impression.
- 18:19Speaker 4: So saying John heard the crash without the before of
- 18:23Speaker 4: the physical attacks and the after of my daughter's immediately
- 18:28Speaker 4: going to see that Shannon was okay, leaving that out
- 18:32Speaker 4: is a lie by omission, and it's unfair, and I'm
- 18:36Speaker 4: sick of being the bad guy. I'm not. I was
- 18:40Speaker 4: a good guy on that night. And I was a
- 18:42Speaker 4: good guy for 10 days afterwards for Shannon. And that's
- 18:46Speaker 4: the story.
- 18:47Speaker 1: And John, first of all, thank you for that. I
- 18:50Speaker 1: know you have to run. I just want to say,
- 18:52Speaker 1: because the audience will ask me to ask you this.
- 18:54Speaker 1: And for the record, you told Heather all of this.
- 19:00Speaker 4: I told Heather. It was a moment. We were friends.
- 19:04Speaker 4: I mean, at least we thought we were. And we
- 19:07Speaker 4: thought we could share in confidence. It's hard to have
- 19:10Speaker 4: all this information and people have all these things they're
- 19:13Speaker 4: thinking out there. And you kind of want some people
- 19:16Speaker 4: to know, even though I wasn't prepared to go completely
- 19:19Speaker 4: public with it because I wanted to protect Shannon and
- 19:22Speaker 4: her daughters.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Why?
- 19:25Speaker 4: But it is not. You do want some people to
- 19:27Speaker 4: know just so, you know.
- 19:30Speaker 3: Well, we also thought they were our friends. And so
- 19:32Speaker 3: Heather and Tamara both knew all of this information. They
- 19:35Speaker 3: knew about everything. We thought we were going to friends
- 19:38Speaker 3: who could help guide us through this because I said,
- 19:40Speaker 3: how am I supposed to film Shannon now, knowing all
- 19:43Speaker 3: of this, knowing she almost hit my stepkid? How am
- 19:46Speaker 3: I supposed to film the rest of the season? And
- 19:48Speaker 3: I've seen it.
- 19:49Speaker 4: I watched a lot of it.
- 19:50Speaker 3: How am I supposed to film?
- 19:52Speaker 4: Carlos, anything else you want to ask me before I go?
- 19:55Speaker 1: No, I appreciate your ability to speak on this, because
- 20:02Speaker 1: I know that it was hard to watch last night.
- 20:05Speaker 2: So thank you for your... story and i'm not afraid
- 20:10Speaker 2: that needs to be heard that's the.
- 20:12Speaker 4: Thing literally i'm not afraid of the truth the truth
- 20:16Speaker 4: is not bad on my side it doesn't look good
- 20:18Speaker 4: for shannon but i'm not afraid of it and by
- 20:21Speaker 4: the way good to see.
- 20:22Speaker 2: You good to see you john safe travels.
- 20:26Speaker 3: Our now we're 15 minutes behind schedule so you that
- 20:29Speaker 3: was a long thing we gotta go no by the
- 20:32Speaker 3: way go ahead lexus Well, I was just going to
- 20:36Speaker 3: say none of this would have been talked about today.
- 20:39Speaker 3: None of this would have been talked about last week
- 20:41Speaker 3: if Heather Dubrow had not shared information that she then
- 20:44Speaker 3: goes on a confessional and says, well, I would have
- 20:47Speaker 3: told Shannon anyway. Okay, well, that shows also the kind
- 20:50Speaker 3: of friend you are. So people do not tell Heather
- 20:52Speaker 3: things that you want close to your heart because she
- 20:54Speaker 3: obviously isn't going to be a vault. That's all I'm
- 20:57Speaker 3: going to say. And this is the other part that sucks. Carlos,
- 21:00Speaker 3: is I do care about Heather. I do like her.
- 21:03Speaker 3: I do have this weird love in my heart because
- 21:05Speaker 3: I thought we were friends. Why else would my husband
- 21:08Speaker 3: only tell two people in the entire world that true
- 21:10Speaker 3: story from everything? Because I was pent up not knowing
- 21:16Speaker 3: where I was going to take this information. Where do
- 21:18Speaker 3: I go with this information now that I've just... I
- 21:20Speaker 3: found this out when I'm already filming, Carlos.
- 21:23Speaker 2: So.
- 21:24Speaker 3: I was just like, oh, my gosh, you could have
- 21:27Speaker 3: told me this a couple months ago, John. And so
- 21:30Speaker 3: we were going to people that we thought are in
- 21:32Speaker 3: the entertainment world that would be able to help navigate
- 21:35Speaker 3: me how to film with someone as a cast mate,
- 21:37Speaker 3: as an employee. And so this is the reality. So
- 21:43Speaker 3: you're welcome at Reality with the King. Well, I did
- 21:46Speaker 3: not know.
- 21:47Speaker 2: Also.
- 21:50Speaker 3: I feel not well, right? This is a lot of
- 21:53Speaker 3: living that night again, because I can see it all
- 21:55Speaker 3: playing in my mind again is very difficult. So this
- 21:59Speaker 3: is going to be a really hard pod to do.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Well, listen, first of all, and I have to catch up. Yeah, no, no, no, no.
- 22:07Speaker 1: And listen, I feel like when it comes to all
- 22:10Speaker 1: of that, we can move on to the other scenes
- 22:12Speaker 1: because I feel like there's nothing else that needs to
- 22:15Speaker 1: be said based on what.
- 22:17Speaker 4: The audience watch.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Um, And I thank you and John for.
- 22:21Speaker 1: Discussing this with me because at the end of the day,
- 22:24Speaker 1: like he said, he's only talking about this and so
- 22:28Speaker 1: are you because.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Of what y'all filmed.
- 22:32Speaker 1: If that moment, in y'all defense, right? Heather was the
- 22:40Speaker 1: one that said it out loud, right?
- 22:44Speaker 2: We would never.
- 22:45Speaker 3: Have done- John told me, Lex, I'm going to take
- 22:49Speaker 3: this to the grave. And I said, it's really hard
- 22:52Speaker 3: because I know. And by the way, it wasn't the
- 22:54Speaker 3: only time she physically assaulted him. There were four others
- 22:56Speaker 3: and he had to put or five and she had
- 22:58Speaker 3: to put makeup on him. Never apologized to him. Never
- 23:01Speaker 3: talked about it. So my husband put up with a lot.
- 23:05Speaker 3: So for now, it all to be coming out. And
- 23:09Speaker 3: I didn't know it was going to be on Carlos King.
- 23:12Speaker 3: He had that interview. The last interview he was ever
- 23:14Speaker 3: going to do with Bryce.
- 23:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:16Speaker 3: That was his last, he hasn't spoken. He has been
- 23:18Speaker 3: in the back, you know, but here you go.
- 23:21Speaker 2: Yeah. Now listen, totally get it. Totally get it.
- 23:27Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show. So raindrops, you have it.
- 23:35Speaker 1: So we can move on Alexis.
- 23:36Speaker 2: I know. Again, there's nothing else needs to be said
- 23:39Speaker 2: after that.
- 23:40Speaker 4: But thank you.
- 23:40Speaker 2: I think your.
- 23:41Speaker 3: Opinions, I mean, you can talk. It's just, it's, I feel.
- 23:45Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no. I will say this. I
- 23:47Speaker 2: will say this.
- 23:49Speaker 1: When you have a second conversation with Heather, is there
- 23:54Speaker 1: anything that you want to disclose that we did not
- 23:57Speaker 1: see in terms of why you wanted it?
- 24:00Speaker 2: Because, listen, I know the audience. And I haven't read
- 24:04Speaker 2: any comments, but I know them.
- 24:07Speaker 1: The audience will more than likely feel like, okay, Alexis,
- 24:12Speaker 1: when she said bye, you can go. they would want
- 24:15Speaker 1: to know, why did you stay? Why did you want
- 24:17Speaker 1: to have another conversation? They think, they think, you know, some,
- 24:20Speaker 1: not all, some people, Alexis is thirsty. She wants camera time.
- 24:25Speaker 1: She could have left.
- 24:26Speaker 2: Why stay? Why are you there?
- 24:29Speaker 1: Why do you want another conversation with Heather? Why did
- 24:31Speaker 1: you want to have another conversation with her?
- 24:34Speaker 3: That is so, that's such a good question. And I
- 24:38Speaker 3: never would have even thought to ask that, but that's
- 24:40Speaker 3: why you're good at your job. Um, Because we were
- 24:44Speaker 3: outside and I had been crying. You saw how emotional
- 24:48Speaker 3: I got like that. But then I shut the tears
- 24:50Speaker 3: off and Heather, you know, walks off and I'm like, bye.
- 24:53Speaker 3: And Joe, my husband, Tamara, producers, everybody were saying, go
- 25:00Speaker 3: back in. Like, dry your tears. Just go back in.
- 25:04Speaker 4: Like, you know.
- 25:05Speaker 3: My makeup artist did a great job, like I told you,
- 25:07Speaker 3: because you couldn't even tell. I kept looking at my compact.
- 25:08Speaker 3: They don't show this, but it's funny. Because I'm looking
- 25:10Speaker 3: at my compact, like, do my tears, can you see streaks?
- 25:14Speaker 3: There was nothing. Thank you, Jennifer, for my makeup. And so...
- 25:19Speaker 3: everyone's like, you are friends with most of those people
- 25:21Speaker 3: in that party. Why are you letting certain ones? And
- 25:25Speaker 3: then I know that the housewives, when you're a cast member,
- 25:29Speaker 3: you're going to be glue. You're going to do what
- 25:30Speaker 3: you have to do. I'm not a member.
- 25:32Speaker 2: I get it.
- 25:33Speaker 3: I get the whole scene and the way that they
- 25:34Speaker 3: all were talking bad about me in there and oh,
- 25:37Speaker 3: this and that. But I'm still friends with most of
- 25:39Speaker 3: those girls and I don't even blame them for it.
- 25:40Speaker 3: I don't blame them for it. I know it's like,
- 25:43Speaker 3: oh my God, now she's coming over here. We don't
- 25:44Speaker 3: want the drama. I went back in Because of the
- 25:48Speaker 3: fact that everyone said, don't, it's going to look real
- 25:53Speaker 3: bad if you leave right now. My gut again, sometime
- 25:55Speaker 3: my gut said, oh, my Uber had pulled up. We
- 25:58Speaker 3: paid that Uber to leave. You know, sorry, we're not
- 26:00Speaker 3: getting in. Went back in the party. I did get
- 26:03Speaker 3: to hug and see a bunch of people and take
- 26:04Speaker 3: a bunch of photos with friends that I actually missed.
- 26:06Speaker 3: I hadn't seen Fernanda in forever. I hadn't seen a
- 26:08Speaker 3: lot of the people forever. So it was really nice.
- 26:10Speaker 3: And then Joe, as you saw in the scene, is real,
- 26:13Speaker 3: pulled me over and said, you need to go talk
- 26:15Speaker 3: to Heather. You guys are friends. This is ridiculous. Well,
- 26:18Speaker 3: then when I go talk to Heather, I didn't know
- 26:21Speaker 3: she was when I said we do have a beef, Heather.
- 26:24Speaker 3: She knows we have a beef. She has said things
- 26:26Speaker 3: and she can't blame it all on me that I
- 26:28Speaker 3: went on this podcast. I only went on the podcast
- 26:30Speaker 3: and called her feckless, which means lack of character because
- 26:33Speaker 3: of the fact that she couldn't come. She wouldn't choose.
- 26:35Speaker 3: You know, she was talking on Watch What Happens Live
- 26:38Speaker 3: about how they're not real friends with John and I
- 26:40Speaker 3: as a couple. And I was a hard, hard ask
- 26:43Speaker 3: to go to Alexis's wedding. That is why I went
- 26:48Speaker 3: back in. And when we were having that talk with her,
- 26:51Speaker 3: I had no idea she was then going to, I
- 26:54Speaker 3: started saying in that talk, I said to Heather, you know,
- 26:58Speaker 3: my biggest beef is that you, what you did after
- 27:00Speaker 3: season 18. And I started talking about how she threw
- 27:05Speaker 3: John under the bus about the fact that John had
- 27:07Speaker 3: been physically assaulted by Shannon. And the way that the
- 27:10Speaker 3: girls all behaved, like it was no big deal that
- 27:12Speaker 3: a woman just physically assaulted a man. It, is beyond me.
- 27:16Speaker 3: But so she disclosed that after season 18, but then Carlos,
- 27:20Speaker 3: the kicker to all this is at that party outside
- 27:24Speaker 3: of Tamara's Vena party. When we're talking, they, they cut
- 27:27Speaker 3: all that part out. She then goes, but let's get
- 27:29Speaker 3: to the real Alexis. John heard the crash. And I'm like,
- 27:33Speaker 3: Oh my God. Now you're even giving more information that
- 27:36Speaker 3: is like he said, I never looked at it like that,
- 27:38Speaker 3: but there you're giving more. So the reason I went
- 27:40Speaker 3: back in was simply to have fun. and not leave
- 27:45Speaker 3: the scene being like, oh, she stormed off and it
- 27:48Speaker 3: backfired again on me. And I'm okay with it because
- 27:50Speaker 3: I did go in with good intentions. I did get
- 27:52Speaker 3: to hug some people that I hadn't seen for a while.
- 27:55Speaker 3: I didn't know Heather was going to go below the
- 27:58Speaker 3: belt again and talk about a second thing was not hers.
- 28:03Speaker 3: I just do one and talk about the physical abuse
- 28:07Speaker 3: John suffered for the relationship. She then talked about him
- 28:12Speaker 3: hearing the crash. But now at least you guys know
- 28:13Speaker 3: the truth. Moving on.
- 28:18Speaker 1: My last question about this. Shannon confronted you and says
- 28:26Speaker 1: you want a storyline and to keep her name out
- 28:29Speaker 1: of your mouth. Why did you feel the need to
- 28:32Speaker 1: walk away and not address it head on?
- 28:35Speaker 3: Well, they didn't air it, but I said, shut the
- 28:37Speaker 3: fuck up, Shannon. So they didn't show me saying that.
- 28:41Speaker 3: But I don't know why. I mean, that would have been,
- 28:44Speaker 3: I said, shut the fuck up, Shannon. Tamara judge heard
- 28:47Speaker 3: it and was no, I said, shut the fuck up, Shannon. So,
- 28:51Speaker 3: you know, keep my name out of your mouth. You know,
- 28:53Speaker 3: what's funny is that I said that, like I said
- 28:56Speaker 3: that comment in the press, like two months in when
- 28:59Speaker 3: she kept talking about how John was this and John
- 29:02Speaker 3: and Alexis and this and that. And I was like,
- 29:04Speaker 3: she just needs to keep my name out of her mouth.
- 29:05Speaker 3: And so she took my line. So you're welcome, Shannon,
- 29:07Speaker 3: for that. So good. I'm glad that you got to
- 29:09Speaker 3: use some of my, my material. That's not scripted and
- 29:12Speaker 3: not thought of until the moment of. You know, I'm
- 29:17Speaker 3: sitting there watching the party and I'm like, she's sitting
- 29:20Speaker 3: there saying, keep the name, my name out of your
- 29:22Speaker 3: mouth about me. And I'm like, she can't stop talking
- 29:25Speaker 3: about John and I, the whole party. And then she's like,
- 29:28Speaker 3: when they're getting ready to like roast me, she's like,
- 29:30Speaker 3: oh yeah, come on, come on. And I'm like, oh
- 29:32Speaker 3: my God, you, you're talking about me. You are so
- 29:36Speaker 3: cringe by the way manless still I mean oh god
- 29:42Speaker 3: I just feel it's horrible so I you know part
- 29:47Speaker 3: of me part of me is like yeah it was
- 29:50Speaker 3: really hard for me to watch that episode and I
- 29:52Speaker 3: I do do I regret it or not that's a
- 29:56Speaker 3: really good question do I regret being that emotional I'm
- 29:59Speaker 3: not sure I do because it was authentically in that moment,
- 30:03Speaker 3: having those feelings that I've been keeping built like inside,
- 30:07Speaker 3: just keep building up. And this is why you tell
- 30:09Speaker 3: your children, don't hold your feelings back. If I had
- 30:13Speaker 3: expressed my feelings before, I wouldn't have reacted that way
- 30:17Speaker 3: at the party.
- 30:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:21Speaker 2: No, I agree. I agree.
- 30:22Speaker 1: And I believe in telling people how you feel in
- 30:24Speaker 1: the moment too. So Thank you for that. I know
- 30:28Speaker 1: we're on limited time because you got to run and
- 30:29Speaker 1: catch a flight, but.
- 30:30Speaker 2: We have 16 minutes. We're good.
- 30:32Speaker 5: Okay.
- 30:32Speaker 3: The rest of this out in 16 minutes.
- 30:34Speaker 4: No problem.
- 30:35Speaker 2: No problem, girlfriend. Let's get.
- 30:37Speaker 1: So the girls are in Tokyo. They arrive in Tokyo.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Tamara and Jen are sharing a room.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Shocker.
- 30:45Speaker 1: In the words of Jen, hell half froze over. So
- 30:50Speaker 1: happy that the dynamic duo are there. So while they're
- 30:54Speaker 1: sharing a room, Tamara says that on the car ride there,
- 30:59Speaker 1: Emily was complaining about Shane saying that he makes her
- 31:03Speaker 1: feel like a bad mom because when Emily asked Shane, like,
- 31:09Speaker 1: what are you going to do while I'm in Tokyo?
- 31:12Speaker 1: He told her the same thing I always do, take
- 31:15Speaker 1: care of the kids.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Well, first of all, when I saw this scene, I
- 31:20Speaker 3: was like, Carlos was right last episode that Emily wants
- 31:25Speaker 3: to make it look like Shane's the bad guy. I
- 31:29Speaker 3: think it's too tango in this relationship. I think they're
- 31:32Speaker 3: both kind of burnt out. I think you were right
- 31:37Speaker 3: about what you said about Emily wants out and she
- 31:39Speaker 3: wants to make it look like so she has a
- 31:40Speaker 3: scapegoat when she does file that it's like, okay, he
- 31:43Speaker 3: was the bad guy. I don't think Shane's the bad guy.
- 31:46Speaker 3: I just don't. I don't know why. I know people
- 31:49Speaker 3: love to hate him too and people do love him.
- 31:52Speaker 3: He's polarized. However, I just like him. And I think
- 31:58Speaker 3: he's funny. I think he's doing the best he can.
- 32:01Speaker 3: I think he gave up his career so that his
- 32:03Speaker 3: wife could flourish and have her career. That's just my
- 32:06Speaker 3: two cents. And you know, the only way we would
- 32:07Speaker 3: know is if we would get one of them on
- 32:09Speaker 3: the pod to tell us the truth. They ain't coming
- 32:14Speaker 3: on your pod after all this.
- 32:18Speaker 2: Shane goes rogue. I don't want to talk to Emily.
- 32:20Speaker 2: I'm good. Jamie reach out to Jamie let's try to get.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Shane on the show I would love to talk to
- 32:26Speaker 1: Shane DM him please thank you okay here's the deal
- 32:32Speaker 1: even when the girls were at dinner and thank you
- 32:36Speaker 1: for that because I thought about our conversation last week
- 32:38Speaker 1: too um.
- 32:41Speaker 3: I was like, I was like, oh my gosh, Carlos
- 32:44Speaker 3: was right. She's going to paint him as this bad
- 32:46Speaker 3: guy so that she gets out of the marriage easier.
- 32:49Speaker 3: And it's like, oh, he's been abusing me. I was like,
- 32:52Speaker 3: she literally is doing exactly what Carlos predicted. And you
- 32:56Speaker 3: and I don't get that. We don't get the episodes early. No,
- 32:59Speaker 3: we have time.
- 33:01Speaker 2: We watch it in real time when it comes on. No,
- 33:03Speaker 2: the thing is this.
- 33:06Speaker 1: I even said last week, which is so funny, so
- 33:08Speaker 1: as the girls were having dinner, it was so interesting because,
- 33:12Speaker 1: you know, she once again is complaining about Shane. She
- 33:19Speaker 1: reveals that they sleep in separate rooms. They barely say
- 33:24Speaker 1: good morning to each other. But this is the part
- 33:28Speaker 1: that got me.
- 33:29Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, I know what you're doing.
- 33:31Speaker 1: So when, I believe it was Tamara or Jen, who
- 33:35Speaker 1: were like, you're smoking hot now. Do you think he's insecure?
- 33:39Speaker 1: You're always outside. You look great.
- 33:42Speaker 2: And she's like, well, I don't know. You have to
- 33:44Speaker 2: ask him.
- 33:45Speaker 1: And I'm like, I said last week, because Emily, and
- 33:50Speaker 1: more power to you, girl. Emily looks amazing. And she
- 33:54Speaker 1: looks like a completely different person than she was when
- 33:57Speaker 1: she started the show. Obviously, she looks different than she
- 34:00Speaker 1: was when they were married. Emily looks amazing right now.
- 34:04Speaker 1: And what I know from my experience being a producer
- 34:07Speaker 1: in this business for 20 years, the reason why housewives
- 34:12Speaker 1: divorces are at an all-time high is not always about
- 34:19Speaker 1: what the man did.
- 34:20Speaker 2: The majority is, right?
- 34:21Speaker 1: But there's a sector of the population of housewives where
- 34:28Speaker 1: The woman wants something else. I believe because Emily looks
- 34:32Speaker 1: so fucking good. And listen, this is no shade to Shane.
- 34:37Speaker 1: Shane is not the most attractive guy in the world.
- 34:41Speaker 1: And I think at that time in their marriage, I
- 34:43Speaker 1: think Emily thought that was the best she can get.
- 34:46Speaker 1: And on top of that, he has a lot of money.
- 34:50Speaker 1: Now that she's who she is now, I think she
- 34:55Speaker 1: wants something different. And I think she's setting up the divorce.
- 34:59Speaker 1: The way Bronwyn on Salt Lake City set up the
- 35:03Speaker 1: divorce with Todd.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Like Dorit set up the divorce with PK.
- 35:09Speaker 1: All of a sudden, we're hearing PK's the biggest alcoholic
- 35:12Speaker 1: in the world.
- 35:13Speaker 2: And I'm like, I might think it's not true.
- 35:15Speaker 1: But shit, none of this was even introduced to us.
- 35:20Speaker 1: And now we understand, oh, you.
- 35:23Speaker 2: Want a divorce.
- 35:24Speaker 1: I think Emily is setting up a divorce and I
- 35:27Speaker 1: will go on record saying, and I don't care who
- 35:29Speaker 1: gets mad at me, I feel bad for Shane. Wow.
- 35:35Speaker 3: Well, you did say this last week before we even
- 35:40Speaker 3: got to this part of it where she's saying she
- 35:43Speaker 3: doesn't know if divorce is in the future. All I
- 35:48Speaker 3: want to say is I do feel bad for Shane.
- 35:50Speaker 3: I do think he doesn't have the voice that the
- 35:54Speaker 3: Housewives have, but he, you know what? Unfortunately, you can
- 36:00Speaker 3: crash and burn because look at what happened with Vicki Gumbelson.
- 36:03Speaker 3: She's sitting there saying it's not better. The grass isn't
- 36:07Speaker 3: greener on the other side. Like, try to stick with it.
- 36:09Speaker 3: So you may think you're hot as, you know. looks
- 36:12Speaker 3: fade is all I'm going to say. Stop the GPL
- 36:14Speaker 3: ones and life's going to be different.
- 36:16Speaker 4: Okay.
- 36:16Speaker 3: You know, stop, stop being able to go to the
- 36:18Speaker 3: gym so much. Life's going to be different. Um, um,
- 36:21Speaker 3: you know, I'm just saying looks fade family doesn't. So
- 36:26Speaker 3: at all costs, I would try to stay. Should Shane,
- 36:30Speaker 3: maybe now that he's seen this episode, should he curb
- 36:33Speaker 3: back a little bit on his, you know, dry humor
- 36:36Speaker 3: towards her?
- 36:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 36:38Speaker 3: That would be easy for him to do.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Right.
- 36:40Speaker 3: Um, should she maybe help out more at home to
- 36:43Speaker 3: where he feels like he's being heard too and not
- 36:46Speaker 3: so run thin? I'm not, I don't think Gina was,
- 36:48Speaker 3: I don't think Gina was bad to try to give
- 36:50Speaker 3: information or like advice about, Oh, get, get someone to
- 36:53Speaker 3: do your laundry, get this help Shane out. I don't
- 36:55Speaker 3: think that was bad information to give her bad advice. However,
- 36:58Speaker 3: you know, maybe both of them just need to give
- 37:00Speaker 3: a little bit more and then you'll be back in
- 37:02Speaker 3: the same bedroom. But I will tell you one thing, Carlos.
- 37:05Speaker 3: When you start sleeping in separate bedrooms, it's the kiss
- 37:07Speaker 3: of death. And my ex and I, for three years,
- 37:11Speaker 3: it was like I would be on one side of
- 37:13Speaker 3: the bed and I would put pillows down. I'd be like,
- 37:16Speaker 3: we were like, and then I would, he would go to,
- 37:18Speaker 3: it was, it's the kiss of death. It is, it
- 37:21Speaker 3: is when you finally have gotten to the indifferent phase
- 37:25Speaker 3: that she said, which is also scary. It is almost
- 37:31Speaker 3: impossible to get back from the indifferent phase. I got
- 37:35Speaker 3: indifferent within five, like five years before it actually happened.
- 37:38Speaker 3: I started to just be this shell of myself. So I,
- 37:43Speaker 3: I think, I think it's, it doesn't look good, but
- 37:47Speaker 3: you know what? Here's the one thing I will say.
- 37:49Speaker 3: I know we're podcasting. So we're here for entertainment also,
- 37:52Speaker 3: but I don't care how mean someone's been to me, Emily. However,
- 37:57Speaker 3: I don't like, she called my husband a trash can
- 37:59Speaker 3: and I'm the lid.
- 38:00Speaker 4: Okay.
- 38:00Speaker 3: So fuck you bitch. But here at the same time, I'm,
- 38:05Speaker 3: My heart does still hurt for them. Are you kidding? Like,
- 38:09Speaker 3: I don't want them to go through a divorce. Their
- 38:10Speaker 3: kids are not going to want this. If they think
- 38:12Speaker 3: raising Luke is hard now, try it when you're in
- 38:15Speaker 3: separate households and you're sharing him 50%. It's going to
- 38:19Speaker 3: be hard as the F-bomb.
- 38:21Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
- 38:24Speaker 3: So I do put them together.
- 38:26Speaker 2: I don't think I'm going to. I agree. I agree.
- 38:29Speaker 2: I agree. I don't wish this on anybody.
- 38:31Speaker 1: And the thing is, I'm not going to name a
- 38:34Speaker 1: housewife who I know experienced this, but I worked with
- 38:39Speaker 1: a housewife who thought the grass was greener and realized
- 38:46Speaker 1: that it wasn't.
- 38:48Speaker 2: And I.
- 38:50Speaker 1: Understand that when you get married so young... You get
- 38:56Speaker 1: married to the person at that time in your life
- 38:59Speaker 1: that you think is the perfect guy for you, and
- 39:00Speaker 1: I get that. The one thing that I think Emily
- 39:04Speaker 1: is doing that I don't like is the fact that Shane,
- 39:10Speaker 1: unless she's telling me something different, based on what she's
- 39:13Speaker 1: saying to me, Shane hasn't done anything to deserve the
- 39:17Speaker 1: treatment she's giving to him, especially when Jen even said,
- 39:22Speaker 1: I hate to say this, this is what Jen said
- 39:25Speaker 1: to Tamara, But I wonder, even when Emily has free time,
- 39:31Speaker 1: if she's hanging out with the kids and helping.
- 39:35Speaker 3: That's the thing. And that's why I said, I don't
- 39:36Speaker 3: hate Gina's advice about, okay, if Emily doesn't have the
- 39:39Speaker 3: energy to do it, because by the way, filming Housewives,
- 39:42Speaker 3: I'm going to stick up for Emily right now. God,
- 39:44Speaker 3: thank you for giving me a soft heart. But filming
- 39:47Speaker 3: Housewives is not easy. It is not an easy job.
- 39:50Speaker 3: You are so stressed out. You are so tired because
- 39:53Speaker 3: you're running ragged. You get back from Tokyo and you
- 39:55Speaker 3: have an interview the next day that you have to
- 39:57Speaker 3: be in glam for. You don't get to breathe. So
- 40:00Speaker 3: your kids do not see you for those months. So yeah,
- 40:05Speaker 3: if Emily isn't helping out and is not able to
- 40:08Speaker 3: when she gets home, I think what Gina said is right.
- 40:11Speaker 3: Why not get a little bit more help around the house?
- 40:13Speaker 3: You know, they can afford it because Shane's parents have
- 40:16Speaker 3: money growing on trees, apparently. So- Go to them and
- 40:20Speaker 3: get a little bit more and figure it out. I
- 40:22Speaker 3: don't know. I still feel bad for Shane and I
- 40:25Speaker 3: still don't want them to. I hope what we're saying
- 40:29Speaker 3: is not true and that they work it out by
- 40:31Speaker 3: the end of the season 20.
- 40:33Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. No, same, same, same. Okay, so I want
- 40:36Speaker 2: to get into the fortune part before I let you go.
- 40:40Speaker 2: They had a fortune reading.
- 40:41Speaker 1: I want to read you each person's reading and you
- 40:43Speaker 1: tell me whether you think it's going to come true, okay?
- 40:46Speaker 2: Or if it was accurate, okay. Gina's, when spring comes,
- 40:52Speaker 2: all trees and grasses.
- 40:53Speaker 4: Are in full bloom.
- 40:55Speaker 2: Wealth will grow large. Marriage, employment, and starting a trip
- 41:01Speaker 2: are all right.
- 41:05Speaker 3: Okay, well, first of all, can I ask you one thing, really, truthfully? Sure.
- 41:10Speaker 3: Per person, were these just randos?
- 41:17Speaker 1: Okay, you're asking me if you think a producer wrote
- 41:19Speaker 1: this or do you think it was random?
- 41:22Speaker 3: I wonder if it was set up. Was this set
- 41:25Speaker 3: up in any way? Or even Gina wrote them? Or
- 41:30Speaker 3: is this real? Because you know why when you read
- 41:34Speaker 3: all of them, you'll know why. Because they sound like.
- 41:38Speaker 3: I'm like, this is just... I open a lot of
- 41:40Speaker 3: fortune cookies because we love Chinese food. I don't eat
- 41:43Speaker 3: the fortune cookie because I don't like the taste of it. However,
- 41:45Speaker 3: I open my fortune... And I never get a fortune
- 41:48Speaker 3: like this. It's never this close to me. My best
- 41:51Speaker 3: one might be like, your luckiest numbers are six and nine.
- 41:54Speaker 3: I'm like, okay.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Yeah, six and nine.
- 41:59Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know where these fortunes came from.
- 42:04Speaker 2: Because.
- 42:04Speaker 3: too many of them were like not good. And then
- 42:07Speaker 3: a couple of them were so good. And I'm like, okay,
- 42:09Speaker 3: this has got to not, this could not be.
- 42:11Speaker 1: That's my experience too. So here's what's funny. I think
- 42:14Speaker 1: because what they were doing, I, when I did a
- 42:17Speaker 1: housewives and the, and my raindrops would know this season four,
- 42:21Speaker 1: we're in Africa and long story short, they had like
- 42:26Speaker 1: this profit psychic type of individual read each girl.
- 42:31Speaker 2: And, um, We did not produce that.
- 42:36Speaker 1: And he said things that were, that was kind of
- 42:38Speaker 1: pertinent to their storyline.
- 42:40Speaker 2: And we thought that was so funny.
- 42:42Speaker 1: And on Ultimate Girls Trip season four, when the girls
- 42:45Speaker 1: went to the Philippines, another prophet, psychic type of person
- 42:49Speaker 1: told Portia, I see you're a lesbian and I see
- 42:54Speaker 1: you with a woman.
- 42:55Speaker 2: And four years later, she's with a woman.
- 42:59Speaker 1: So that's why my mind goes to, I would hope that, gosh,
- 43:04Speaker 1: that did not happen.
- 43:05Speaker 2: So I'm going to believe that it did.
- 43:07Speaker 1: Plus, plus, plus, plus, I know the producer, the showrunner,
- 43:11Speaker 1: and he wouldn't do that because he was actually with
- 43:13Speaker 1: me when we were filming these moments. And he's all
- 43:18Speaker 1: about the authenticity. So no, I thought it was convenient.
- 43:21Speaker 1: But that's the question.
- 43:23Speaker 3: Okay, so now go back. I loved Gina's. I do
- 43:28Speaker 3: believe it. I think that... I do think marriage will be...
- 43:32Speaker 3: I think they might get married in the next.
- 43:34Speaker 4: Year or two. I do.
- 43:36Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 43:37Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 43:39Speaker 3: And I think wealth is coming towards her because she
- 43:41Speaker 3: is good at all those commercials and she's got some
- 43:45Speaker 3: charisma on camera.
- 43:46Speaker 2: She's good. I really do love Gina. And I want
- 43:50Speaker 2: you guys to stop giving her a hard time. I
- 43:52Speaker 2: love Gina.
- 43:53Speaker 3: There's a freshness about her. I'm not sure what it is.
- 43:56Speaker 3: But there's something fresh and just.
- 44:00Speaker 3: I don't feel like she picks a bunch of sides.
- 44:02Speaker 3: I think she's really good at not being, not Switzerland
- 44:04Speaker 3: like Heather Dubrow is, but, like, she's good at picking,
- 44:07Speaker 3: not picking sides, but, like.
- 44:09Speaker 2: Heather Dubrow's not even Switzerland. She's Antarctica.
- 44:12Speaker 3: Like, she's... Well, you know what I get from it
- 44:16Speaker 3: now after seeing her sit there and say, well, I
- 44:19Speaker 3: was going to tell Shannon anyway. It's like, yeah, I
- 44:21Speaker 3: trust her as much as I trust that tree branch
- 44:25Speaker 3: I can see out there. But... With that said, I
- 44:29Speaker 3: do care about her.
- 44:31Speaker 2: I do like her. Because you're a good person. You're
- 44:34Speaker 2: a good person.
- 44:35Speaker 1: Speaking of Heather, hers was everything does not go smoothly.
- 44:46Speaker 3: Where does that even go?
- 44:47Speaker 2: It was so random. I was like, is that it?
- 44:50Speaker 2: Did we miss more of this?
- 44:52Speaker 3: There's so many. Like doesn't go smoothly in life. Doesn't
- 44:55Speaker 3: go smoothly with your not being an authentic friend and
- 44:58Speaker 3: a trustworthy friend. Does it go not be smooth in
- 45:01Speaker 3: your finances? Like where does that even go? I don't
- 45:04Speaker 3: even know.
- 45:04Speaker 2: Okay.
- 45:05Speaker 3: That was, I wish she would have had a little
- 45:06Speaker 3: bit more on hers. Darn it. Okay.
- 45:11Speaker 2: It was strange. Okay.
- 45:14Speaker 1: James was marriage and employment are both bad.
- 45:23Speaker 3: Well, I don't even like that one because I don't
- 45:26Speaker 3: wish bad on anyone in this thing. I've been divorced. I, gosh,
- 45:30Speaker 3: and they do have a date set, right? She said
- 45:32Speaker 3: that on one of the, I just, I hope that's
- 45:34Speaker 3: not right. I'm glad they burned that one.
- 45:38Speaker 2: What do you think? Oh, I'm like you. I don't
- 45:42Speaker 2: wish bad on anybody.
- 45:43Speaker 3: I just don't want. I mean, she's great on the show.
- 45:47Speaker 3: She brings a lot to the show. Like, I don't know.
- 45:50Speaker 3: So employment, I would hope, is not bad. And if
- 45:51Speaker 3: they are getting married, let's not even speak that in
- 45:53Speaker 3: the universe. Like, burn that sucker.
- 45:56Speaker 2: Really fast.
- 45:57Speaker 1: Burn it.
- 45:58Speaker 2: Double burn it.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Double burn it.
- 46:02Speaker 1: Shannon's was, good luck will come to you from the heavens.
- 46:06Speaker 1: The person you're waiting for will come.
- 46:10Speaker 2: God help him.
- 46:16Speaker 1: Tamara's was, talk with tongue entangled by your getting drunk.
- 46:22Speaker 1: Gives no unpleasant impression. There may be a little trouble
- 46:26Speaker 1: in your family, but when you believe in God and
- 46:30Speaker 1: ask for happiness, you can get calmed down.
- 46:34Speaker 2: The person you waited for will come late.
- 46:37Speaker 3: Do you see why I feel like these are all scripted?
- 46:39Speaker 2: I know!
- 46:41Speaker 3: When you go down it and you're doing this, I'm like,
- 46:43Speaker 3: this was frickin' set up. I'm sorry. There are times
- 46:46Speaker 3: on national television where some things are done that aren't real.
- 46:51Speaker 3: I feel like this is a non-real moment. Whether Gina
- 46:53Speaker 3: did it or the producers or someone in the restaurant,
- 46:57Speaker 3: there is just no way. Because that is exactly what
- 46:59Speaker 3: Tamara needed to hear. And she even got a real tear.
- 47:01Speaker 3: It wasn't a crocodile tear. She even started to tear up. Okay,
- 47:05Speaker 3: so there you go. That's my true sense about it.
- 47:08Speaker 2: As I'm reading, it's funny.
- 47:10Speaker 1: That's why, to your point, to your point, as I'm
- 47:12Speaker 1: reading this, even I'm like, why are some longer than others?
- 47:16Speaker 2: But whatever. I agree with you.
- 47:18Speaker 3: And why are they so curved and cued just for
- 47:23Speaker 3: that in some way? How did out of all.
- 47:27Speaker 2: Okay, hold on.
- 47:28Speaker 3: Question for you. How did out of all six housewives
- 47:32Speaker 3: that went, how did the two that are proposed to
- 47:37Speaker 3: and engaged have marriage in their okay those odds carlos
- 47:42Speaker 3: hello the wheels are turning those odds are like this
- 47:46Speaker 3: you and i are there and yours says marriage and
- 47:48Speaker 3: we know you're not supposed to marriage what if mine
- 47:50Speaker 3: said marriage and i'm like dude i'm already married and
- 47:52Speaker 3: you throw it away you're like okay marriage isn't coming
- 47:54Speaker 3: around the corner well you're in a year late people
- 47:57Speaker 3: like there's just the odds of that are just way
- 48:00Speaker 3: too i'm sorry not buying.
- 48:02Speaker 2: It how much time I can understand your skepticism. I
- 48:08Speaker 2: actually can.
- 48:09Speaker 3: Well, you didn't at first. You defended the production side first.
- 48:13Speaker 2: No, I'm still defending it.
- 48:15Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's not like you're coming out of
- 48:18Speaker 1: thin air with this thought.
- 48:20Speaker 2: I understand. Because even I'm like, Alexis' argument is very strong.
- 48:25Speaker 2: We saw raindrops.
- 48:26Speaker 1: Our poll for this week, do you believe the fortune
- 48:30Speaker 1: was written by the producers, or do you think this
- 48:33Speaker 1: really happened the way it was?
- 48:34Speaker 2: Producers or Gina?
- 48:35Speaker 1: Do you think the fortune was written by the producers
- 48:38Speaker 1: slash Gina, or do you think this really happened?
- 48:41Speaker 2: Okay.
- 48:42Speaker 4: Up next, Vicky.
- 48:44Speaker 2: Your mind.
- 48:46Speaker 3: I have five more minutes, so I packed you on
- 48:48Speaker 3: the time just so we would stay on. Okay, so
- 48:50Speaker 3: what's your... Keep going. And I love the poll. Okay.
- 48:53Speaker 1: Okay, so raindrops, Spotify comments, tweet us, all the things.
- 48:57Speaker 1: YouTube comments, leave us.
- 48:59Speaker 2: Okay.
- 49:01Speaker 1: Vicky, your mind is unsettled, wondering to leave or stay.
- 49:09Speaker 1: By the way, I'm going to finish the rest. I
- 49:10Speaker 1: thought of her leaving or staying on Housewives immediately.
- 49:14Speaker 4: Okay.
- 49:15Speaker 2: Immediately.
- 49:15Speaker 3: That's why I'm like, these not seem.
- 49:20Speaker 3: Like it's just too good to be true. One of them,
- 49:23Speaker 3: if these fortunes were true, one of them would have said,
- 49:26Speaker 3: Vicky or whoever, you're about to pop out another kid
- 49:29Speaker 3: or we see kids in your future. That's what would
- 49:32Speaker 3: have been on because it's like, okay, I am 60.
- 49:35Speaker 3: I've already been through menopause.
- 49:36Speaker 2: This isn't happening. Okay, no.
- 49:39Speaker 3: So I'm just saying when you get a fortune cookie
- 49:41Speaker 3: for real at.
- 49:42Speaker 5: A Chinese restaurant or a Japanese establishment, you are going
- 49:48Speaker 5: to get something that's that out of sync with what's
- 49:52Speaker 5: really happening in your life.
- 49:53Speaker 3: And not one of them did. All of the fortunes
- 49:55Speaker 3: aligned with what's going on in those women's lives. So
- 50:00Speaker 3: is that all of them or do we have it?
- 50:01Speaker 3: They should have drawn one for Carmella.
- 50:05Speaker 2: That's right. They did. And that's so interesting.
- 50:07Speaker 5: Okay.
- 50:09Speaker 3: What were you going to say now?
- 50:10Speaker 2: Okay.
- 50:11Speaker 1: So finishing Vicky's, hers goes, I mean, hers continues as
- 50:16Speaker 1: all your deeds and work, all your deeds and work,
- 50:20Speaker 1: your mind doesn't stay still and will lose right away.
- 50:24Speaker 1: Stop marriage of any kind.
- 50:29Speaker 3: I totally forgot that part of it.
- 50:33Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 50:34Speaker 2: Wow.
- 50:34Speaker 3: Well, I love my Vicky and people can beat her
- 50:37Speaker 3: down all they want, but I love Vicky and she's,
- 50:39Speaker 3: she deserves to be married if that's what she chooses
- 50:42Speaker 3: and her mind doesn't stop. So that's very true. And
- 50:45Speaker 3: she does a workaholic. I mean, if there's any kind
- 50:48Speaker 3: of a holic on her, it's workaholic.
- 50:53Speaker 2: I'm not touching that one. Okay. Okay.
- 50:59Speaker 1: Last but not least, Emily's. Your gym has no flaws,
- 51:04Speaker 1: and it will glisten better when you polish. Your hope
- 51:08Speaker 1: will become true. It is good for you to make
- 51:12Speaker 1: a trip. Both marriage and employment good.
- 51:18Speaker 2: See? Now we know her marriage isn't good.
- 51:20Speaker 4: See?
- 51:25Speaker 3: That's production or Gina trying to say Emily... don't give
- 51:30Speaker 3: up on your marriage because the people that are divorced
- 51:32Speaker 3: in this unit of women know that divorce is not greener.
- 51:37Speaker 3: The grass is not greener when you're divorced. Sorry. I
- 51:41Speaker 3: got to keep it real, Carlos. I can't, I can't
