- 1:30Speaker 3: You know, I had to bring out the big snowball
- 1:33Speaker 3: for season seven, honey. Special pen debut.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Yes, yes, no.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Yes. I'm so happy to reunite with you.
- 1:46Speaker 2: I miss my girl.
- 1:47Speaker 1: So we get to recap this season of Salt Lake
- 1:50Speaker 1: City Housewives together.
- 1:52Speaker 2: Monte Carlo is back.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Before we get into the episode, because obviously I know that.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Our tone is going to shift a little bit. Yeah.
- 2:01Speaker 1: You brought up first the snowball on your pen. So
- 2:04Speaker 1: we have to talk about this. Let's just get it
- 2:07Speaker 1: out of the way.
- 2:08Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
- 2:10Speaker 1: How do we feel about seeing Bronwyn as a center snowflake?
- 2:17Speaker 2: Were you gagged, shocked.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Deserving, not deserving? What's tea, Monica?
- 2:21Speaker 3: She didn't even register that.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Oh.
- 2:27Speaker 2: Monica, she was center snowflake.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Was she really?
- 2:33Speaker 2: Are you gagged?
- 2:34Speaker 3: I swear on everything. I don't know why I didn't
- 2:37Speaker 3: even clock that. I think because visually it looked the
- 2:41Speaker 3: same to me.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Yes.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Well, what does that tell you? We've got a lot
- 2:47Speaker 3: of light-skinned brunettes on the cast. We've got a lot of,
- 2:55Speaker 3: I mean, like Lisa, Meredith, Bronwyn. Yeah, I probably, I
- 2:59Speaker 3: didn't even register. It could have been any of them.
- 3:01Speaker 3: I literally did not even register that.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's what's going on.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Okay, see, now that I know that, I can give
- 3:09Speaker 3: my honest opinion. That should have been Mary. Are you kidding?
- 3:13Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Based on this episode that I just watched alone,
- 3:18Speaker 3: they should have been like, you're center. You gave us
- 3:24Speaker 3: the most raw freaking thing in Housewives history. Like, you
- 3:31Speaker 3: are center. You let us film. You let us record.
- 3:34Speaker 3: You kept going. You showed up with the most painful
- 3:40Speaker 3: loss I think a person can experience. She should have
- 3:45Speaker 3: been center snowflake. I don't care how the rest of
- 3:47Speaker 3: the season was. She could have showed up and filmed
- 3:50Speaker 3: one episode, and she should have been center snowflake. That's
- 3:53Speaker 3: how I feel.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:55Speaker 3: No. Listen.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Listen. You're not going to get an argument from me
- 3:58Speaker 1: based on this episode alone. And let's just get right
- 4:01Speaker 1: into it.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Wow.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Right?
- 4:06Speaker 1: So listen, I was very curious about how they were
- 4:13Speaker 1: going to tell the story of Mary losing her son,
- 4:17Speaker 1: Robert Jr.
- 4:19Speaker 2: We learned, you know, last....
- 4:23Speaker 1: Earlier this year, right? Or was it late last year?
- 4:26Speaker 1: I forget when it happened.
- 4:27Speaker 3: No, this year.
- 4:28Speaker 2: It was this year, right?
- 4:29Speaker 1: It was this year.
- 4:30Speaker 3: It was right before filming.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Right.
- 4:33Speaker 1: It was right before filming when this happened. So we
- 4:36Speaker 1: knew that cameras were on pause while they were dealing
- 4:40Speaker 1: with this.
- 4:41Speaker 2: So the episode opens up.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Which I did not even know existed, which was shocking
- 4:48Speaker 1: to see this.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Mary talking about Robert Jr. being home.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Being home from prison. Well, jail. I'll say jail. Being
- 5:00Speaker 1: home from jail. And how she's really happy he's home.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Her baby's back. She thanked God for it. And.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Again, I was.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Just shocked to see that because I did not even
- 5:16Speaker 1: think about, did you guys film when he was home?
- 5:22Speaker 2: So to know that.
- 5:23Speaker 1: That happened first, were you too surprised that they were
- 5:26Speaker 1: even shooting that? Yes.
- 5:36Speaker 3: I hadn't heard that that was filmed at all. Um,
- 5:43Speaker 3: that made it that much more devastating. Um, I, I
- 5:47Speaker 3: will never forget at the reunion when she said something specific,
- 5:51Speaker 3: she was like, you know, obviously devastated that he was
- 5:54Speaker 3: in jail, but she said, if he's there, I know
- 5:58Speaker 3: in a nutshell, not her words exactly, but if he's there,
- 6:02Speaker 3: she knows he's not using.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that. Yes.
- 6:07Speaker 3: And so to have him come home and then to
- 6:12Speaker 3: have that immediately follow, that is... Yeah.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:19Speaker 2: It was.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Yeah, it was.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Like, wow, to see that. And then we see, you know,
- 6:26Speaker 1: three weeks later that, you know, the rest of the
- 6:29Speaker 1: cast of the show meet up. Angie talks to them about,
- 6:35Speaker 1: you know, her, she was, at that time, Angie was
- 6:38Speaker 1: the only one really talking to Mary. The other girls
- 6:41Speaker 1: did reach out, but Mary, rightfully so, just wanted to,
- 6:45Speaker 1: you know, not, converse about it. She's dealing with something
- 6:48Speaker 1: so devastating. So we do see the girls come together
- 6:52Speaker 1: in solidarity for Mary. And Angie said how Mary pretty
- 7:00Speaker 1: much doesn't want them fighting. Like, she really wants to
- 7:04Speaker 1: see this group get along. What were your whole thoughts
- 7:07Speaker 1: about that particular scene, too? Um....
- 7:12Speaker 3: I think if you cannot come together as a human.
- 7:17Speaker 3: At a time when someone loses their child, that is
- 7:21Speaker 3: definitely a you issue. So I was very, very happy
- 7:24Speaker 3: to see that everybody was able to put aside your differences,
- 7:27Speaker 3: come together as mothers, as peers, as colleagues, as friends.
- 7:32Speaker 3: However they decided to approach it, they were there to
- 7:36Speaker 3: rally for Mary. And as you should, as you should.
- 7:40Speaker 3: I don't think they should be given like, oh, you're
- 7:44Speaker 3: so amazing. I mean, that's literally what we should be
- 7:47Speaker 3: doing as humans when someone goes through such a loss.
- 7:54Speaker 3: I was glad to see it, but yeah, yeah, that
- 7:58Speaker 3: should have happened 100%. Like, they've been with Mary from
- 8:02Speaker 3: season one. Regardless of any drama they've had with each other,
- 8:07Speaker 3: they should have been able to put that aside, and
- 8:09Speaker 3: they did. So yeah, they did exactly what I think
- 8:12Speaker 3: and hope they should have done.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I thought it was great that
- 8:18Speaker 1: they did that. Like you said, that should have happened.
- 8:20Speaker 1: And sometimes you reflect and be like, it's unfortunate that
- 8:23Speaker 1: it takes the passing of someone's son that you work
- 8:27Speaker 1: with to remind you of those things. But it was
- 8:30Speaker 1: nice that they were able to do that. I thought
- 8:34Speaker 1: that it was beautifully well done the way these first
- 8:40Speaker 1: two scenes really told the story. that did not feel
- 8:44Speaker 1: like we weren't getting the reality, like the real, in
- 8:49Speaker 1: real time, how they felt. And to me, it did
- 8:53Speaker 1: not feel like they were exploiting the passing of Robert Jr.
- 8:56Speaker 1: 's passing either. I thought all of that with the
- 9:00Speaker 1: tone and just how the whole episode was, but those
- 9:05Speaker 1: two scenes I felt really did a good job of
- 9:07Speaker 1: opening up the season with us understanding we're in this place,
- 9:12Speaker 1: We are going to talk about it.
- 9:13Speaker 2: This is how we're going to handle it.
- 9:16Speaker 1: But I thought it was respectful.
- 9:19Speaker 3: That's just, I had the same thoughts as you probably
- 9:23Speaker 3: where I'm like, how do you do this? Like, how
- 9:26Speaker 3: do you do this and not make it seem like,
- 9:30Speaker 3: and I'm not saying this is what happened at all,
- 9:32Speaker 3: but how do I do this and not make it
- 9:33Speaker 3: seem like I'm exploiting a mother and her loss of
- 9:36Speaker 3: her child? That is a very fragile, delicate, real situation.
- 9:41Speaker 3: How do we capture this in the way it's meant
- 9:44Speaker 3: to be captured and not make it seem for the show?
- 9:51Speaker 2: Yes.
- 9:52Speaker 3: And I completely agree with what you said. I I
- 9:55Speaker 3: personally am very grateful that I don't know if cameras
- 10:01Speaker 3: were there or not, but that the service was not shown. Yeah.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Um, I, yes.
- 10:08Speaker 3: I was very, very happy to see that that was not,
- 10:13Speaker 3: that's very sacred still and not out there for everybody. Um,
- 10:18Speaker 3: And that they kept that out. I was very glad
- 10:23Speaker 3: that they did that as well.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Same.
- 10:25Speaker 1: No, same with Albusin. It's not something that I would
- 10:29Speaker 1: have cared to have seen.
- 10:30Speaker 3: No.
- 10:32Speaker 1: And again, I agree with you. I remember when Jill
- 10:37Speaker 1: Zarin's husband passed away. And she wasn't a New York
- 10:43Speaker 1: City housewife at the time. And I remember, if I
- 10:46Speaker 1: don't got this wrong, and if I do got it wrong,
- 10:49Speaker 1: apologies in advance, but I do believe I have this right,
- 10:53Speaker 1: that supposedly, allegedly, I think Jill denied it, but there
- 10:59Speaker 1: were conversations that Jill contacted the producers to pretty much say,
- 11:07Speaker 1: you guys can film it. Allegedly.
- 11:09Speaker 2: I believe she has denied it, so she has denied it,
- 11:11Speaker 2: in all fairness.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Because Bethany Frankel was the one to sort of bring
- 11:20Speaker 1: this up because Bethany at the time was a housewife.
- 11:25Speaker 1: And what we did see was paparazzi photos of Bethany
- 11:30Speaker 1: and Jill outside. And Bethany felt that Jill was behind that.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Let's see. Yeah. Jill denied it. Jill said it wasn't true.
- 11:43Speaker 1: Jill has denied all of this, but Bethany felt strongly
- 11:46Speaker 1: that that happened because she was like, why is paparazzi
- 11:50Speaker 1: outside of the church? Like, what's going on here? And
- 11:55Speaker 1: the money shot was Jill and Bethany because that was their, like,
- 12:00Speaker 1: first time reconciling in years.
- 12:02Speaker 3: Okay, I just want to make sure I'm getting this correct.
- 12:07Speaker 3: Is this the same Jill that went off about the Superbowl?
- 12:09Speaker 2: Okay.
- 12:10Speaker 1: Fuck that. Nope.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Nope.
- 12:12Speaker 1: I don't.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Okay.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a second.
- 12:17Speaker 3: That's just like, goodbye.
- 12:23Speaker 2: It's that one, girl.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Yes.
- 12:24Speaker 3: Okay.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:25Speaker 3: Okay.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Just saying.
- 12:27Speaker 3: Okay.
- 12:27Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. But that's why I'm happy that we weren't seeing...
- 12:32Speaker 1: We did not see it. Again, job well done, Bravo.
- 12:36Speaker 1: Production company, producers, I thought it was great.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:40Speaker 3: You could tell they were very intentional.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Yes.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Yes.
- 12:45Speaker 3: It's interesting.
- 12:47Speaker 2: I'm glad you said that.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Yeah. Watching it because... I wonder if the same feelings
- 12:55Speaker 1: I had, you had.
- 12:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:57Speaker 2: I was on eggshells.
- 13:00Speaker 1: And I was like, how am I going to receive this?
- 13:05Speaker 3: Yes.
- 13:06Speaker 1: You said something so powerful and impactful. They were intentional
- 13:11Speaker 1: because I did not feel gross. I did not feel
- 13:14Speaker 1: like I should be watching it.
- 13:16Speaker 2: It felt like, wow.
- 13:18Speaker 3: Wow.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Yes. I'm satisfied with the storytelling. Yes.
- 13:23Speaker 2: Yes.
- 13:24Speaker 3: I was so nervous, too. And I was like, how
- 13:26Speaker 3: do we even recap this? Same.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Yes.
- 13:30Speaker 3: They did a great job. They did a great job.
- 13:32Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
- 13:34Speaker 2: Lisa Barlow's with her family.
- 13:36Speaker 1: She is in the kitchen cooking grilled cheese, honey, on
- 13:40Speaker 1: her stovetop. A little margin, a little cheese.
- 13:43Speaker 2: Okay.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Flipping it up. Her sons come in and we learn that, look,
- 13:51Speaker 1: her sons are dating.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Yes. One is 21. The other one's 14.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Breaking girls home and all of that. Listen, I always
- 14:04Speaker 1: love seeing moments of the housewives at home with the
- 14:06Speaker 1: family because Because I feel like I'll start like to
- 14:09Speaker 1: argue with the girls. And let's be clear, I love
- 14:12Speaker 1: a little cat fight. But I always love the idea
- 14:16Speaker 1: of like, who are you as a mother and a wife?
- 14:20Speaker 2: And to see this moment.
- 14:24Speaker 1: With Lisa as a mom, based on obviously what we're learning,
- 14:29Speaker 1: what happened with Robert Jr., I thought that was a
- 14:33Speaker 1: nice palate cleanser, but also a good reminder of the
- 14:38Speaker 1: fact that these women are mothers and that she has
- 14:40Speaker 1: two sons.
- 14:42Speaker 3: Yes. Which I kind of, I will say, I have
- 14:46Speaker 3: felt that we haven't seen that a lot lately on
- 14:50Speaker 3: this franchise.
- 14:51Speaker 2: I think because they have a whole new team.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 14:56Speaker 3: That's true, huh? I forgot about that.
- 14:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:00Speaker 3: Maybe that's why.
- 15:01Speaker 2: I was like.
- 15:05Speaker 3: What did you think, though, of her conversation with John?
- 15:07Speaker 1: Let's get into.
- 15:08Speaker 3: It, baby.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Come on. Yes, yes. Let's get it. Look at me.
- 15:15Speaker 3: You already know I was going to go there. I'm like, uh-huh, uh-huh,
- 15:17Speaker 3: grilled cheese. Okay, but what about the conversation with Sean?
- 15:20Speaker 1: I had to give a palate cleanser.
- 15:22Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Yep. Yep.
- 15:24Speaker 2: Well, let's get into the tea, bitch.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Okay.
- 15:26Speaker 3: Yes, exactly. Okay.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, Monica.
- 15:32Speaker 3: I want to know.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Garcia.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Yes.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Miss Jackson, if you're nasty.
- 15:37Speaker 3: Um.
- 15:43Speaker 1: This is Reality with the King. And I'm Carlos King.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show.
- 15:51Speaker 3: What?
- 15:52Speaker 1: We learned for the first time. This is why I... Listen,
- 15:57Speaker 1: I enjoyed this episode because I was learning things I
- 15:59Speaker 1: have never learned in the past seasons from these girls.
- 16:03Speaker 3: I'm so excited to hear what you're going to say
- 16:04Speaker 3: right now.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Maybe you knew a little something.
- 16:07Speaker 1: I don't know anything, girl.
- 16:08Speaker 2: Okay.
- 16:10Speaker 3: I'm so excited.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Okay.
- 16:12Speaker 3: So.
- 16:13Speaker 1: we learned that Lisa and John were not in the
- 16:17Speaker 1: best place possible.
- 16:18Speaker 3: Yeah, last season when they, yeah.
- 16:23Speaker 1: That last season, Lisa and John had a conversation and
- 16:28Speaker 1: Lisa felt that John was very flippant with her, had
- 16:31Speaker 1: an attitude with her. Yes. They sit down and have
- 16:34Speaker 1: a conversation. Lisa's like, what's going on with you? You've
- 16:39Speaker 1: been very snippy with me. I don't like it. And
- 16:43Speaker 1: then John said everything was going wrong for him, but
- 16:50Speaker 1: that everything was going right for Lisa and that he wondered, well,
- 16:59Speaker 1: can I grab some of her luck? Can I get
- 17:01Speaker 1: some of that? He admitted that he was jealous of Lisa.
- 17:08Speaker 1: And let me tell you something, and I can't wait
- 17:10Speaker 1: to hear your thoughts. As somebody who has produced movies
- 17:14Speaker 1: for 20 years.
- 17:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 17:16Speaker 1: I'll just stick to housewives because I think other reality
- 17:20Speaker 1: shows deal with this, but housewives, the reason why the
- 17:23Speaker 1: divorce rate is over 90% is because, yes, it's because
- 17:29Speaker 1: of this reason alone, Monica.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Two things happen.
- 17:34Speaker 1: The woman changes and the man doesn't recognize her anymore.
- 17:39Speaker 2: Or, and or, it will.
- 17:40Speaker 1: Get to, don't, don't, First of all, you shady bitch.
- 17:46Speaker 1: First of all, this episode did not talk about that.
- 17:50Speaker 1: Which I thought was interesting. They're saying to give episode two.
- 17:55Speaker 3: That's how I know I'm growing as a person, bitch.
- 17:58Speaker 3: Because I didn't even say it. I kept my mouth shut.
- 18:01Speaker 1: I know what you're thinking.
- 18:04Speaker 3: I know.
- 18:10Speaker 1: That wasn't in this episode. So we'll get to that
- 18:12Speaker 1: episode later. We'll get to that moment.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Now, a man.
- 18:22Speaker 1: I'm sorry. A housewife changes who she is and she
- 18:28Speaker 1: becomes unrecognizable to her husband. Yes.
- 18:31Speaker 2: Okay.
- 18:33Speaker 1: And or the housewife all of a sudden gets some
- 18:37Speaker 1: shine and attention and She's not home anymore.
- 18:41Speaker 2: She's on phone calls.
- 18:43Speaker 1: She's having meetings. She's flying to like these amazing countries
- 18:46Speaker 1: to shoot. And the husband who was the breadwinner was like,
- 18:52Speaker 1: wait a minute. The dynamic has changed. So I applaud
- 18:57Speaker 1: John as a man for being honest, admitting that he
- 19:03Speaker 1: was jealous of his wife's success. I thought that was powerful, Monica.
- 19:07Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about that whole entire situation though, sister?
- 19:12Speaker 3: You know, I could. Okay. Okay. I will say they
- 19:22Speaker 3: are a very lucky couple.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Okay.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Because that man really seemed to be struggling hard with
- 19:31Speaker 3: his wife last season. Yeah. She wasn't listening. She wasn't
- 19:36Speaker 3: a good communicator.
- 19:39Speaker 1: She didn't.
- 19:40Speaker 3: Pay attention to the family, you know, all these things.
- 19:44Speaker 3: And now she is queen again. Okay. So I'm like,
- 19:51Speaker 3: maybe Lisa was like, you don't have it fucked up
- 19:54Speaker 3: last season. So you're going to have to run it
- 19:57Speaker 3: back and kiss my ass again, bitch, because I got
- 20:00Speaker 3: all these co-stars and their marriages are falling apart, honey.
- 20:03Speaker 3: And so we need to pull it together, bitch. And
- 20:07Speaker 3: you're not going anywhere. So suck it the fuck up.
- 20:10Speaker 3: and start royally kissing my ass again.
- 20:17Speaker 1: You don't think there was a conversation?
- 20:19Speaker 3: Like, don't you ever fucking embarrass me like that again.
- 20:24Speaker 3: You don't think so?
- 20:25Speaker 2: You know why I can't stand you sometimes?
- 20:27Speaker 1: 20% of me felt that too. I'm telling you.
- 20:37Speaker 3: There was a conversation and they were like, okay, we're
- 20:40Speaker 3: going to have the perfect marriage. And we went through
- 20:42Speaker 3: a rough patch, but now everything is so good. And
- 20:45Speaker 3: we're so good. If you're listening, this is no shade.
- 20:50Speaker 3: Cause I'm just saying what everybody's thinking. Okay. This is
- 20:53Speaker 3: a recap. We're coming out with it. No shade. You
- 20:55Speaker 3: guys for real. Are we really going to acknowledge that
- 20:59Speaker 3: that maybe didn't happen? Like, Don't you dare embarrass me
- 21:02Speaker 3: on that show again and belittle me because I will
- 21:05Speaker 3: say she kind of, she kind of admitted it when
- 21:10Speaker 3: she was in her confessional. And she said, when I
- 21:14Speaker 3: watched it back, I cried. I called John and I said,
- 21:19Speaker 3: I think we're done. And he was like, no, I
- 21:24Speaker 3: can't live without you. I love you. So what you're
- 21:28Speaker 3: saying is there was a conversation. that was like, I'm
- 21:32Speaker 3: not doing this shit again. And you were like, oh God,
- 21:34Speaker 3: I fucked up. Don't worry. All hail Queen Lisa.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Okay.
- 21:39Speaker 1: The reason why I said to you 20% of me
- 21:42Speaker 1: felt that is because it was that precise moment that
- 21:47Speaker 1: I said, oh, wait a minute. Am I now watching
- 21:53Speaker 1: a man on camera having to bravo back to his
- 21:59Speaker 1: wife Yes. Because he embarrassed her. Because one thing we
- 22:03Speaker 1: will give Lisa. I mean, I will give Lisa. I
- 22:06Speaker 1: want that you would join me in this. Okay. Lisa
- 22:09Speaker 1: has never verbally embarrassed John on that show to me.
- 22:11Speaker 3: No.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Okay.
- 22:13Speaker 3: No, she is. I will say. John is sacred. That
- 22:18Speaker 3: is like a girl you do not touch.
- 22:22Speaker 2: At all.
- 22:23Speaker 3: 100%. Her marriage, her family.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Off limits.
- 22:26Speaker 3: Off limits. You do not go there. And props to
- 22:29Speaker 3: her for that. She has never drugged that man through filth.
- 22:33Speaker 3: So I could definitely, no, he's on her pedestal, right?
- 22:37Speaker 3: And so I could definitely see her being like, I
- 22:40Speaker 3: would never do that to you. And you did it
- 22:43Speaker 3: to me.
- 22:45Speaker 1: And because of that, that's what made me think about it.
- 22:48Speaker 1: Because to see him cry and get choked up, I
- 22:53Speaker 1: was like, wow, he's really admitting this. So I thought
- 22:57Speaker 1: that way then. But at the dinner table with her
- 23:02Speaker 1: and Meredith's new face, okay, which we'll get to that
- 23:05Speaker 1: in a second.
- 23:06Speaker 3: Yes.
- 23:06Speaker 1: Yes. Not yes.
- 23:08Speaker 2: Yes.
- 23:11Speaker 3: She looks amazing.
- 23:12Speaker 2: She looks fantastic.
- 23:13Speaker 1: Okay. She looks good. Yes. Money well spent. Okay, good.
- 23:18Speaker 1: What a great investment.
- 23:19Speaker 3: I'm so proud of my girl, Big Mare. And she
- 23:23Speaker 3: came out here and she admitted that shit. She wasn't like,
- 23:26Speaker 3: I have 10 threads.
- 23:27Speaker 1: She looks good. I was here for it. Like she
- 23:36Speaker 1: looks amazing.
- 23:37Speaker 3: I love it. We love a nip tuck.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Baby, money well spent and not only money well spent,
- 23:44Speaker 1: a good investment.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Some of us invest in.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Stocks and bonds, ETFs, real estate. I'm not mad at
- 23:51Speaker 1: a woman investing in her face.
- 23:52Speaker 3: Exactly. No. Go ahead.
- 23:54Speaker 2: She looks good.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Meredith.
- 23:55Speaker 3: Whatever you want to do.
- 23:57Speaker 1: Look good.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Yep.
- 24:00Speaker 1: So it wasn't until Lisa Barlow sat down with Meredith.
- 24:07Speaker 1: Where she did talk about what Monica just mentioned. And
- 24:11Speaker 1: I was like, hmm. Was I bamboozled a bit? Did
- 24:19Speaker 1: Lisa check John and John felt so guilty because Lisa said,
- 24:24Speaker 1: we're done. Because in her mind, she's like, I always
- 24:28Speaker 1: had your back on the show. This show, they let
- 24:30Speaker 1: the women talk about The husbands. Yeah. This ain't no
- 24:35Speaker 1: Lisa Rinna, you know, Kim Richards shit. You know, we
- 24:39Speaker 1: ain't talking about the husbands here.
- 24:40Speaker 3: Nope.
- 24:41Speaker 1: So the idea that I protected you, I had your back,
- 24:44Speaker 1: and you mean to tell me you said some shit
- 24:47Speaker 1: on camera that affected me?
- 24:49Speaker 2: We're done here. And I want to ask you this.
- 24:53Speaker 1: Yep.
- 24:54Speaker 2: I do want to ask you this.
- 24:56Speaker 1: Hey, what?
- 24:58Speaker 2: They've been together 23, is it 23 years?
- 25:00Speaker 3: Yes. I don't even know. I mean, John. Is 21.
- 25:07Speaker 1: 21. I mean, I mean the, the oldest son, what's
- 25:13Speaker 1: his name? Jack.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Jack and Jerry. Yeah.
- 25:17Speaker 3: Jack and Henry.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Jack and Henry.
- 25:19Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 25:19Speaker 2: I'm going to get Jared from. Yes. Child.
- 25:23Speaker 1: Um, he's 21.
- 25:25Speaker 3: So at least. At least.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. We saw our good sis Bronwyn, which we'll
- 25:35Speaker 1: get to in a second.
- 25:36Speaker 2: Oh, Lord.
- 25:38Speaker 1: We saw our good sis Bronwyn.
- 25:41Speaker 2: Be with a man.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. Got what she needed.
- 25:47Speaker 3: Right.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Suck the deuces.
- 25:49Speaker 2: Right, my bitch.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Yep. I'm a housewife. When Lisa threatened John, was she
- 25:58Speaker 1: serious or was that a threat for him to wake up?
- 26:05Speaker 3: Lisa is not going anywhere. She loves her family, okay?
- 26:16Speaker 3: I'm not taking away from that at all. And I
- 26:19Speaker 3: have always said she's an incredible mother. She really would
- 26:23Speaker 3: do anything for her children. But she is also not
- 26:29Speaker 3: going to... Let go of that perfect image, baby. I'm sorry.
- 26:34Speaker 1: No.
- 26:35Speaker 3: She will not trust anyone else again like she trusts John.
- 26:38Speaker 3: And that's rightfully so. Rightfully so. She's been with him.
- 26:42Speaker 3: They have kids together. He's been there from the jump
- 26:46Speaker 3: with the show. She can trust him. They do business together.
- 26:51Speaker 3: Whatever it is, okay? They have six lawyers together. They're
- 26:54Speaker 3: in it. So, I mean, she is committed. She is committed.
- 27:00Speaker 3: She's not going anywhere. I think that she, I think
- 27:03Speaker 3: that a hundred percent, she probably meant it when she
- 27:07Speaker 3: said it, but I don't think that she would actually
- 27:10Speaker 3: go through with that. I mean, it would have to be,
- 27:13Speaker 3: it would have to be a huge betrayal from him
- 27:20Speaker 3: in order for her to, to leave. It would have
- 27:22Speaker 3: to be, As it should. Let me tell you something.
- 27:26Speaker 3: No matter what my opinion was on, you know, why
- 27:31Speaker 3: all of a sudden John's tune completely changed and she
- 27:36Speaker 3: is perfect and it was all on him. It.
- 27:43Speaker 3: He stayed, okay? she stayed. They are in it. And
- 27:48Speaker 3: in a world of what's next, what's better for me,
- 27:53Speaker 3: where is the grass greener? Who is going to make
- 27:56Speaker 3: me happier in this moment? Who's going to give me
- 27:59Speaker 3: a dopamine hit? In a world where men are leaving
- 28:04Speaker 3: their freaking mama, baby mamas and kids just to go
- 28:08Speaker 3: have another baby mama and kids, they are committed. And
- 28:12Speaker 3: I respect the shit out of that.
- 28:14Speaker 1: I really do.
- 28:15Speaker 3: Because we are living in a time where people want
- 28:18Speaker 3: the easier. They want the easier. And those two are
- 28:21Speaker 3: in it no matter what. They are Bonnie and Clyde, bitch.
- 28:24Speaker 3: And I respect that. I respect that.
- 28:27Speaker 1: I really do.
- 28:28Speaker 2: And I like them together.
- 28:30Speaker 3: I do. I really do. I don't know who the
- 28:33Speaker 3: fuck else is going to deal with this shit. And Lisa,
- 28:38Speaker 3: that comes from love, okay? That's a place of love. Yes, yes.
- 28:43Speaker 3: That's not even shade.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Honey, it's no shade.
- 28:46Speaker 1: It's no shade because at the end of the day,
- 28:49Speaker 1: Lisa is a big character.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Yes.
- 28:55Speaker 1: A man has to love everything about you to deal
- 28:59Speaker 1: with that type of personality. So if not shade, it's
- 29:03Speaker 1: why she works on the show. But a lot of
- 29:06Speaker 1: men ain't dealing with that shit. And John has dealt
- 29:09Speaker 1: with it for 23 years. And listen, your WAP is
- 29:14Speaker 1: so good, sis. You got this man on camera crying saying,
- 29:18Speaker 1: I was jealous of you. Yes. Yes.
- 29:22Speaker 3: She runs that shit. She runs that shit. And we
- 29:25Speaker 3: all know that, bitch. From season one, she's been running
- 29:28Speaker 3: that shit. Be so for real right now. We all
- 29:31Speaker 3: have known that. We all have known that.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Kudos to Lisa Barlow, honey. Yes, kudos.
- 29:37Speaker 3: We all needed John Barlow. Period. She's the black cat,
- 29:42Speaker 3: he's the golden retriever, and we love it.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Yes. Perfect way of doing it. Let's talk about the
- 29:51Speaker 1: biggest surprise of the episode to me. What? Whitney and
- 29:56Speaker 1: Bronwyn are besties.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Fuck off.
- 30:00Speaker 3: Fuck out of here. Fuck off. Are they? Are they?
- 30:08Speaker 3: Fuck out of here. Are they? That's what she did
- 30:17Speaker 3: in her confessional. Please.
- 30:19Speaker 1: No.
- 30:20Speaker 3: I got, I got, no.
- 30:23Speaker 1: You don't think that they all of a sudden? No.
- 30:29Speaker 2: Monica.
- 30:30Speaker 3: Why?
- 30:30Speaker 1: You don't think all of a sudden that they have
- 30:34Speaker 1: gravitated towards each other?
- 30:35Speaker 3: I think it's a relationship of convenience.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Yeah. An alliance?
- 30:40Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:42Speaker 3: Are we playing up? Are we playing up this physical
- 30:46Speaker 3: tension thing because the internet says it's there? Nope. I'm
- 30:51Speaker 3: not buying it, bitch. No.
- 30:53Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait.
- 30:54Speaker 3: I love my girl Whitney down. I got issues with
- 30:57Speaker 3: Bron Bron right now. That's my problem. I got issues. Bitch,
- 31:01Speaker 3: because it just got leaked that she's out here with
- 31:03Speaker 3: this man from the PGA and he is married with
- 31:05Speaker 3: a baby. Fuck off. I am not playing with Bron
- 31:09Speaker 3: Bron right now, okay? I don't, I don't like, I
- 31:12Speaker 3: think that that man that she hired to be her
- 31:14Speaker 3: boyfriend was a scam. I think she's like, oh, that
- 31:17Speaker 3: girl's summer. That was like 10 boyfriends ago. It's giving,
- 31:22Speaker 3: oh God, it's giving Heather. Oh, see? It's giving me Heather. No,
- 31:29Speaker 3: you have to admit right now, Heather Gay season one, two,
- 31:33Speaker 3: three was boy crazy talking about my little lollipop chicken,
- 31:38Speaker 3: whatever the fuck. And freaking come on. We all know
- 31:42Speaker 3: she was out here chasing tail like crazy in her
- 31:45Speaker 3: first couple of seasons. And that is what Bronwyn is
- 31:48Speaker 3: doing right now. And it's probably triggering me. And I can,
- 31:52Speaker 3: I'm grown enough to admit that. I think it's the show.
- 31:58Speaker 1: No. Okay, listen. I have not heard that Brahman is
- 32:05Speaker 1: allegedly dating a PGA. What?
- 32:09Speaker 3: You didn't see that? The picture of them? It was
- 32:12Speaker 3: all over. Bravo. Bravo. Andy asked her about it on
- 32:18Speaker 3: Watch What Happens Live.
- 32:20Speaker 2: I missed it last night.
- 32:21Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't watch it. I saw the clip all over.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Okay. So tell me, tell me what happened.
- 32:26Speaker 3: Yeah. So he has Bronwyn there.
- 32:29Speaker 1: Yes.
- 32:30Speaker 3: And she goes, he asked her about, is it Brandon?
- 32:34Speaker 1: Brandon. Yes.
- 32:35Speaker 3: And she goes, who? And Andy was like, And Bronwyn
- 32:43Speaker 3: was like, that was like 10 boyfriends ago. And then
- 32:49Speaker 3: he's like, oh, okay. Well, what about, you know, we
- 32:53Speaker 3: just saw you canoodling and cozying up to so-and-so at
- 32:57Speaker 3: the PGA. And she's like, you know, I'm just having fun.
- 33:01Speaker 3: I'm just living my life. Which, whatever, girl, okay? This
- 33:06Speaker 3: is no shade to women wanting to go out and
- 33:09Speaker 3: do your thing. I just don't believe it with her.
- 33:13Speaker 3: There is something about it that I'm not buying. And
- 33:18Speaker 3: maybe it's because I'm also seeing you post with Todd
- 33:23Speaker 3: and hanging out with Todd and doing things with Todd.
- 33:26Speaker 3: Maybe it's because I thought your Brandon from the jump
- 33:29Speaker 3: was a PR stunt. So I can't get over that.
- 33:32Speaker 3: Maybe it's because in the episode, you said that you
- 33:34Speaker 3: sold your house, but bitch, I know you guys were
- 33:36Speaker 3: running it. I just, I'm not, I am not buying it.
- 33:41Speaker 3: I'm not.
- 33:43Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 33:43Speaker 3: And I know so many people love her. And then
- 33:45Speaker 3: you're going to act like a lesbian with Whitney. Fuck off. No,
- 33:48Speaker 3: I'm just, there's too much going on. It's giving, grasping
- 33:53Speaker 3: for storyline anywhere she can.
- 33:59Speaker 1: Listen, I'm happy that we get to laugh about this
- 34:03Speaker 1: stuff because I was like, I don't want this to
- 34:05Speaker 1: be a heavy episode.
- 34:07Speaker 2: Bitch, it ain't. That's the good news. Thank you, Monica,
- 34:10Speaker 2: for saving the day.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Here's the deal.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Here's the deal.
- 34:13Speaker 3: There's something I'm just not buying.
- 34:15Speaker 1: I don't believe- No, listen.
- 34:16Speaker 2: I will give us this.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Okay.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Okay. You and I were the first ones. And listen,
- 34:21Speaker 1: I love Bronwyn. I told you I met her. She
- 34:23Speaker 1: was sweet.
- 34:25Speaker 2: I do love her, right?
- 34:27Speaker 1: Now, but we recap the episodes based on what we're shown. Yes.
- 34:31Speaker 1: You and I were really the first ones who clocked
- 34:34Speaker 1: it two seasons ago. With her and Todd. That season
- 34:39Speaker 1: where Todd was like this monster. You and I both said, she.
- 34:45Speaker 2: Is really laying it off.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Telling us everything about Todd.
- 34:50Speaker 2: You and I both said, oh, bitch.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Broadway is setting up her divorce plan.
- 34:54Speaker 3: We said it from the jump. We saw right through
- 34:56Speaker 3: that shit.
- 34:57Speaker 1: We saw it. So when it was revealed that they
- 35:00Speaker 1: were separated, we were like, divorce is coming soon.
- 35:03Speaker 2: We're not surprised.
- 35:04Speaker 1: They're divorced.
- 35:06Speaker 2: She talks about Brandon she's dating.
- 35:10Speaker 1: She also talks about in this episode, and this was
- 35:14Speaker 1: the moment that I was like, Bronwyn, you know I
- 35:17Speaker 1: love you down to the ground. This season, I got
- 35:23Speaker 1: to be honest with you, to hear you say, Well,
- 35:27Speaker 1: I expected Todd to do something for me for my
- 35:30Speaker 1: 40th birthday. It was my first birthday after my dad
- 35:35Speaker 1: passed away. And how protecting her marriage came at a
- 35:38Speaker 1: cost to herself. Saying that line alone is the reason
- 35:42Speaker 1: why Todd ain't doing shit for you ever. Todd feels like, bitch,
- 35:46Speaker 1: you have told my entire business, I can't go to
- 35:50Speaker 1: the golf course without people asking me about me being
- 35:53Speaker 1: on an airplane looking at naked photos, allegedly. I can't
- 35:56Speaker 1: do shit without people saying, you stole her cherry top
- 35:59Speaker 1: off her sundae. How dare you? You're a monster. This
- 36:02Speaker 1: man is.
- 36:03Speaker 3: You know that man walks by and people make fart
- 36:05Speaker 3: sounds because of her shit. Stop. He is so done.
- 36:09Speaker 3: He is like, girl, why would I be doing- Also,
- 36:11Speaker 3: you're dating. Your freaking paid for boyfriend should be doing-
- 36:15Speaker 3: Is that not in the contract? Is that not in
- 36:17Speaker 3: the contract you had with him? He should be doing
- 36:20Speaker 3: something for you.
- 36:22Speaker 1: So do you not believe Brahman when she says there
- 36:24Speaker 1: was a period of time where she really loved Todd
- 36:29Speaker 1: and doesn't know what it feels like to be alone?
- 36:31Speaker 1: She was saying this to her mother.
- 36:32Speaker 3: I'm not saying that. I think that anybody that has
- 36:38Speaker 3: been with somebody for 10 years, shit, one year, okay?
- 36:43Speaker 3: I think you can love someone fiercely and know them
- 36:46Speaker 3: for three months. I am not saying that she didn't
- 36:50Speaker 3: love him. What I'm saying is I'm not believing a
- 36:55Speaker 3: lot of the stuff that she's doing or portraying. For
- 37:01Speaker 3: whatever reason, there's just something about it that I'm not buying.
- 37:04Speaker 3: I don't know. Something's off to me. I don't know.
- 37:12Speaker 1: I think that's fair.
- 37:15Speaker 3: And I could be wrong. And I can also admit that.
- 37:17Speaker 3: But for my personal opinion.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 37:20Speaker 3: Something does... It's not clicking for me.
- 37:25Speaker 1: Based on what you told me happened on Watch What
- 37:27Speaker 1: Happens Live last night... Yeah. When Andy asks her, how's Brandon?
- 37:32Speaker 1: She goes, who? Yes.
- 37:34Speaker 2: Even if you guys aren't together.
- 37:37Speaker 1: I think that statement alone gave a little bit of performance. Yes. Wait,
- 37:42Speaker 1: because I haven't heard Brandon say anything bad about you
- 37:47Speaker 1: or you haven't told us y'all aren't together, like whatever.
- 37:51Speaker 1: And then to say that was 10 boyfriends ago, to
- 37:55Speaker 1: your point, I know that when a woman gets a divorce,
- 37:58Speaker 1: it's open season, right?
- 38:00Speaker 2: As it should be.
- 38:00Speaker 1: But there is something a little performative about it. So
- 38:05Speaker 1: that's why to your point, you're not wrong to me
- 38:10Speaker 1: for being suspicious. Yeah.
- 38:13Speaker 3: Yeah. There's just something there. And then I think like,
- 38:15Speaker 3: you know, hyping up the whole act with Whitney is just,
- 38:20Speaker 3: I don't know. It's just, I'm just.
- 38:23Speaker 1: Yeah. Even Whitney saying, like I said, things about Meredith
- 38:26Speaker 1: and Lisa, I want to apologize for, and I feel guilty.
- 38:30Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, you realize you're on an island
- 38:33Speaker 1: and you need to, like, make things right with these girls.
- 38:37Speaker 2: So, like, that to me was sort of like, okay, girl, whatever.
- 38:39Speaker 1: But the biggest thing is she has admitted to stop,
- 38:45Speaker 1: she stopped drinking because she felt that at a drag,
- 38:53Speaker 1: some drag show, she laid it on too thick when
- 38:57Speaker 1: it came to shading Meredith and Lisa and She said,
- 39:00Speaker 1: I was encouraged. I had the liquor courage to do it.
- 39:06Speaker 1: But because of that is why she is realizing that
- 39:12Speaker 1: she was drinking too much and that she's putting a
- 39:17Speaker 1: stop to it. Yeah.
- 39:21Speaker 3: I love Whitney for a lot of reasons. She and
- 39:27Speaker 3: Meredith made a very, very, very very huge move when
- 39:33Speaker 3: I was going through everything behind scenes that hopefully one
- 39:36Speaker 3: day I can talk about that I will always support her.
- 39:40Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on. I remember when that
- 39:47Speaker 3: clip leaked and it was bad. It was bad. And
- 39:52Speaker 3: then you had, I guess, BravoCon. She was a mess,
- 39:55Speaker 3: I guess, on stage at BravoCon. They had to take
- 39:58Speaker 3: the mic from her. So if that's happening, at least
- 40:05Speaker 3: she's out here admitting it. At least she's like, I
- 40:07Speaker 3: need to stop. I can't be drinking anymore. I need
- 40:11Speaker 3: to put it down. Whatever it is. But I definitely
- 40:15Speaker 3: don't think she's the only one that should be stepping
- 40:20Speaker 3: away from the alcohol. But I am glad that she
- 40:24Speaker 3: is out here and open with it and discussing her
- 40:30Speaker 3: possible abuse of alcohol. Yes.
- 40:34Speaker 1: Yes.
- 40:34Speaker 3: That's a serious subject. That's a slippery slope.
- 40:37Speaker 1: No.
- 40:37Speaker 3: So for her to admit, I'm numbing myself, that's a
- 40:43Speaker 3: big admittance for sure. Yeah.
- 40:46Speaker 1: And it takes courage to say that on camera for
- 40:48Speaker 1: the world to see. Yes. Yes. I thought that was
- 40:51Speaker 1: special for her to say that. You mentioned things being performative,
- 40:58Speaker 1: and I did too.
- 40:59Speaker 2: Uh-oh, here we go.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Oh, shit. On Heather's new man trip that she met
- 41:06Speaker 1: on TaskRabbit, allegedly, because when, unless I got the story wrong,
- 41:14Speaker 1: I literally watched it and said, I'm still confused. So
- 41:18Speaker 1: Heather debuts this new man named Tripp. She said they met.
- 41:23Speaker 3: When she- Same bitch, and I am not calling him Tripp.
- 41:25Speaker 3: His name is Mike, okay? Tripp is his last name.
- 41:30Speaker 3: I don't even know. You know what it gave me?
- 41:32Speaker 3: It gave me my mother. And maybe that's why I'm like,
- 41:34Speaker 3: anyone that does this, I have a problem with. My mother-
- 41:39Speaker 3: her whole life has been linda right linda darnell that's
- 41:43Speaker 3: her name we go to greek easter it was the
- 41:46Speaker 3: first time she had ever filmed the first time she'd
- 41:48Speaker 3: ever met the women we walk up to heather and
- 41:51Speaker 3: i'm like this is my mom and she's like hi
- 41:54Speaker 3: i'm ld i literally i was so mad i'm so
- 41:58Speaker 3: mad they took this out i turned to her and
- 42:00Speaker 3: i go who's ld who is ld and then hi
- 42:04Speaker 3: nice to meet you i'm ld Hi, LD. Hi, LD. Hi, LD.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Who the fuck is LD? So now we've got Mike here,
- 42:12Speaker 3: out here, and all of a sudden, it's Tripp.
- 42:17Speaker 1: No.
- 42:17Speaker 3: Immediately no, bitch, because you know the kind of caliber
- 42:20Speaker 3: of man you have to be to pull off a
- 42:21Speaker 3: name like Tripp? Okay? Matthew McConaughey's name was Tripp in
- 42:27Speaker 3: Failure to Launch.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Okay?
- 42:30Speaker 3: You are not Matthew McConaughey, sir. You sure ain't no Tripp.
- 42:34Speaker 3: That's your last motherfucking name. So I will be referring
- 42:37Speaker 3: to you as Mike, your legal name.
- 42:41Speaker 2: You know Mike.
- 42:43Speaker 3: I know Mike.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Does he work at TaskRabbit?
- 42:48Speaker 1: What does Mike do? Because I didn't understand what she said.
- 42:52Speaker 2: I met Mike. Well, now I'm calling him Mike.
- 42:54Speaker 1: I met Mike when.
- 42:56Speaker 2: You got me fucked up.
- 42:57Speaker 3: That's his name. Like, it's giving... Okay, Tripp is cool.
- 43:01Speaker 3: It's giving... I can see Heather. I can see Heather. The, like.
- 43:06Speaker 3: Forever uncool girl sitting here being like, Tripp is cool.
- 43:11Speaker 3: Let's introduce you as Tripp.
- 43:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 43:14Speaker 3: We're going to go with Tripp, Tripp, Tripp.
- 43:16Speaker 1: No, bitch.
- 43:18Speaker 3: You bagged a mic, okay? And that's his name. I'm
- 43:22Speaker 3: not calling him Tripp. Because I know that was discussed
- 43:26Speaker 3: beforehand when they introduced him to the world. Tripp. That's literally,
- 43:30Speaker 3: shut up.
- 43:31Speaker 1: What? So what does Trip, I mean, what does Mike do?
- 43:39Speaker 3: So allegedly, let's go down that road.
- 43:43Speaker 1: Okay.
- 43:44Speaker 3: His father or family started a like construction company, contracting company, whatever.
- 43:52Speaker 3: And so he's a contractor. So that's what he does.
- 43:57Speaker 3: That is true. That is true.
- 44:00Speaker 1: So when she, because she says they met at Beauty Bar.
- 44:05Speaker 1: And he was helping her put up.
- 44:07Speaker 2: She said that. We met at Beauty Balls.
- 44:08Speaker 3: Oh, Beauty Lab. Beauty Lab?
- 44:10Speaker 1: Beauty Lab. Okay. And he was helping her with putting
- 44:16Speaker 1: up shelves and shit.
- 44:17Speaker 2: So I was like, wait, is he TaskRabbit? What's happening?
- 44:20Speaker 2: I'm confused. So maybe he was in construction.
- 44:23Speaker 3: Who knows if that's... Who knows if that's true? The
- 44:26Speaker 3: whole we met 10 years ago and now we found
- 44:31Speaker 3: each other again. I'm not discrediting that story. I'm not.
- 44:35Speaker 3: I just I don't know what's true and what's not
- 44:37Speaker 3: here because it is Heather. And unfortunately, I'm very skeptical.
- 44:45Speaker 1: I'm skeptical because any reality star, little one-on-one for my raindrops,
- 44:50Speaker 1: anytime you watch a show, a reality show, and if
- 44:54Speaker 1: a main cast member brings a quote-unquote friend that they've
- 44:57Speaker 1: known for years, and all of a sudden they're dating,
- 45:01Speaker 1: they call their friend up to say, play my boyfriend
- 45:04Speaker 1: for this TV show, allegedly. I've seen it happen on
- 45:08Speaker 1: shows that I've been a part of. I'm like- Wait,
- 45:10Speaker 1: because my thing is this. All of a sudden, I
- 45:13Speaker 1: look at you differently now that I'm on television. We
- 45:15Speaker 1: were friends for 10 years.
- 45:17Speaker 2: And I don't know.
- 45:18Speaker 1: All of a sudden, I'm attracted to you.
- 45:20Speaker 2: And guess what? You want to film even better.
- 45:23Speaker 1: So I'm not buying Tripp.
- 45:26Speaker 3: Mike, I am also not buying Mike. And I will
- 45:30Speaker 3: tell you, I also found it extremely interesting when they
- 45:34Speaker 3: went through the timeline of... They were sitting on the couch, bitch, timeline,
- 45:39Speaker 3: the original timeliner here. And you're sitting there and you
- 45:42Speaker 3: go December, January, February. So you started dating right before filming?
- 45:50Speaker 3: You started dating right before filming. It's giving, I was
- 45:55Speaker 3: threatened and I need to bring something other than, you know,
- 46:01Speaker 3: I'm a bad Mormon and I.
- 46:03Speaker 1: Don't like my kids. Because he's a bad Mormon too, yeah.
- 46:05Speaker 3: Whatever.
- 46:06Speaker 2: That's what she said.
- 46:08Speaker 3: That's what she said. Because again, that's all she has.
- 46:12Speaker 3: So I don't know. I'm not buying it. I do
- 46:16Speaker 3: know that he was previously married and, um, they are
- 46:24Speaker 3: obviously divorced. Apparently she is like beautiful. Um, I'm not
- 46:29Speaker 3: going to disclose her name because I'm not, I'm not
- 46:33Speaker 3: doing that. Uh, Yeah, I know a lot, Carlos. I
- 46:40Speaker 3: am biting my tongue so hard. Yeah, I know a lot.
- 46:47Speaker 3: But I'm not going to go there.
- 46:49Speaker 2: Is he, okay, he's divorced?
- 46:51Speaker 1: Yes.
- 46:52Speaker 2: Okay, so he is single.
- 46:54Speaker 3: No kids.
- 46:56Speaker 2: No kids.
- 46:57Speaker 1: Correct. Yes.
- 46:59Speaker 3: Yes. Yes. But I, you know, when the producer on
- 47:08Speaker 3: the show said, we're seeing a side of you we've
- 47:11Speaker 3: never even seen before. And I just wanted to be like, yeah,
- 47:16Speaker 3: like her real life. Like it only took you guys
- 47:19Speaker 3: seven years to force her. To show something about her
- 47:23Speaker 3: freaking life. Do you think, from production point of view,
- 47:28Speaker 3: for real, did they threaten her? Were they like, bitch,
- 47:31Speaker 3: if you don't give us some shit, you are going
- 47:34Speaker 3: to be demoted. You are going to be replaced. Like,
- 47:37Speaker 3: you've got to give us something. We've got nothing.
- 47:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 47:41Speaker 2: No, listen.
- 47:41Speaker 1: What happens in production is this. When you have a
- 47:44Speaker 1: new season, you reassess everybody. And you have conversations saying.
- 47:49Speaker 2: What are you giving us?
- 47:50Speaker 1: Because what you gave us last year, the past year,
- 47:53Speaker 1: before that, the year before that, isn't working, right?
- 47:56Speaker 3: You, a.
- 47:58Speaker 1: Very smart, unbiased producer, looks at the entire cast and says,
- 48:06Speaker 1: where are we taking this housewife or reality star this season?
- 48:12Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 48:12Speaker 1: And when it comes to Heather, Heather... was always very
- 48:17Speaker 1: short of personal story. And that's why for me, this
- 48:21Speaker 1: idea that all of a sudden this longtime friend you
- 48:25Speaker 1: have is not your boyfriend, it seems to be a
- 48:29Speaker 1: little bit too.
- 48:30Speaker 2: Convenient for me.
- 48:32Speaker 1: Yes. And I definitely think that, look, that's why when
- 48:37Speaker 1: it came to you talking about Brandon, Brahman's man, I
- 48:43Speaker 1: get the concern because The same day we're watching his debut,
- 48:49Speaker 1: hearing about him on the premiere. Yeah. Later that night,
- 48:53Speaker 1: you with Andy live in real time and y'all, you
- 48:56Speaker 1: don't know who he is.
- 48:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 48:58Speaker 1: That's not normal.
- 49:00Speaker 3: No.
- 49:01Speaker 2: Not when you are, I'll say this, I'll say this.
- 49:03Speaker 1: Not when you are pushing this guy in our faces.
- 49:08Speaker 2: They who you want to. I don't give a shit.
- 49:11Speaker 3: Nope.
- 49:11Speaker 1: But as far as they say, upload, post.
- 49:15Speaker 2: It's like, oh, that's your man.
- 49:18Speaker 1: Cool.
- 49:19Speaker 2: That's different.
- 49:20Speaker 3: Well, it's one thing to be like, I'm not going
- 49:22Speaker 3: to show my personal life. Nobody I date will ever
- 49:24Speaker 3: be on the show. You haven't shown anybody you've dated
- 49:27Speaker 3: for seven years. That has been on lock and key.
- 49:30Speaker 3: You're not, you know, whatever. And then now all of
- 49:32Speaker 3: a sudden you're like, he filmed all season with me.
- 49:37Speaker 1: What? Yeah.
- 49:40Speaker 3: It's, yeah.
- 49:41Speaker 2: No, it's, it's, it's, it's.
- 49:43Speaker 3: And if it's real, good for them.
- 49:47Speaker 2: More power to her.
- 49:48Speaker 1: It's just suspicious.
- 49:50Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.
- 49:51Speaker 3: That's weird. That's suspicious.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Yes.
- 49:55Speaker 3: The timing is also convenient. Right before filming, just a
- 50:00Speaker 3: couple months before filming, you were able to have somebody
- 50:03Speaker 3: there to film with. That's great. Okay.
- 50:08Speaker 1: Okay.
- 50:11Speaker 2: What an episode. I love that we went there.
- 50:13Speaker 1: I don't want to go back to a downward moment, but,
- 50:18Speaker 1: you know, the ending of the episode, Mary's back in
- 50:22Speaker 1: the chair. She.
- 50:25Speaker 2: Listen, I don't.
- 50:26Speaker 1: Have it in me to talk about it. Can I just...
- 50:30Speaker 1: You can. I just don't have it in me. That
- 50:34Speaker 1: moment was sad with the dog in the room and... No, stop.
- 50:38Speaker 3: Because I... That's exactly why I said, based on this
- 50:44Speaker 3: episode alone, she should have upset Snowflake. I'm sorry. The
- 50:50Speaker 3: fact that she let cameras into his room, the fact
- 50:57Speaker 3: that she opened production and allowed them to film everything
- 51:03Speaker 3: that they filmed, the fact that she gathered herself together,
- 51:08Speaker 3: put on clothes, okay? Yeah. put on clothes when most
- 51:13Speaker 3: couldn't even get out of bed. She had makeup on
- 51:17Speaker 3: her hair was brushed. Okay. I'm sorry, but those little
- 51:20Speaker 3: things feel excruciating when you are broken, let alone, I
- 51:26Speaker 3: can't imagine how she was feeling losing a child.
- 51:29Speaker 1: Okay.
- 51:32Speaker 3: She should have been center snowflake. And I will stand
- 51:34Speaker 3: on that.
- 51:34Speaker 1: I am.
- 51:37Speaker 3: I will say Bronwyn was a hundred percent correct with
- 51:40Speaker 3: everything she said, as far as I've never seen anyone
- 51:43Speaker 3: handle it like this. No. Um, and he's with God
- 51:49Speaker 3: and just trusting. I mean, she's such an example. She's
- 51:55Speaker 3: so freaking, I, yeah, I've, I've never seen anyone handle
- 52:00Speaker 3: it like that either. She is one in a million. Um,
- 52:07Speaker 3: the way she said time to work and she showed up.
- 52:14Speaker 3: And then she was encouraging the women. She was being
- 52:18Speaker 3: strong for the women. She was giving words of the
- 52:24Speaker 3: Lord to the women. Like the one suffering. I mean,
- 52:28Speaker 3: she really is remarkable. The way she has handled this
- 52:32Speaker 3: is unmatched. And she said something that I wrote down
- 52:42Speaker 3: she said, you see who's real when you go through something.
- 52:48Speaker 3: When you are in hell, that is when you find
- 52:52Speaker 3: out who is really with you. And it is so true.
- 52:58Speaker 3: And she was so grateful for those women. And I
- 53:05Speaker 3: think it was that moment that I really remembered what
- 53:10Speaker 3: Housewives was supposed to be about. Housewives was supposed to
- 53:15Speaker 3: be a group of friends that are living their individual
- 53:21Speaker 3: lives together, that are there for each other, that can
- 53:25Speaker 3: have fun with each other, that can support each other.
- 53:29Speaker 3: through breaks up, breakups, divorce, moves, bankruptcies, foreclosures, marriages, baby births,
- 53:38Speaker 3: all these things. And I kind of feel a little
- 53:42Speaker 3: bit that we've lost sight of that where it seems
- 53:46Speaker 3: like ruining the people you're working with. And that moment
- 53:52Speaker 3: just really felt like old school OG housewives to me.
- 53:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 54:00Speaker 3: Because I believe that's what the show was always intended for. Yeah. And,
- 54:07Speaker 3: you know, she says in there, always look at the light.
- 54:10Speaker 3: Darkness will always be there, but always look for the light.
- 54:12Speaker 3: And I, Mary is the light, man. I mean, she
- 54:16Speaker 3: was the light of this episode in every way. In
- 54:20Speaker 3: every way. And I'm just, I'm so proud of her.
- 54:24Speaker 3: I'm proud of production and how they chose to balance that.
- 54:29Speaker 3: I can't imagine how hard that was.
- 54:32Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 54:33Speaker 1: No, listen, you said it best. You said it best.
- 54:36Speaker 1: And the only thing I will add, too, was it
- 54:39Speaker 1: was sad when she mentioned that she did not even
- 54:42Speaker 1: hear from her brother and sister.
- 54:43Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
- 54:46Speaker 1: Like, listen, I understand there's issues there, Beef. A text
- 54:51Speaker 1: message goes a long way. You know, I heard what happened.
- 54:55Speaker 1: You have my condolences.
- 54:57Speaker 3: I can't believe that.
- 54:59Speaker 1: That was the part that got me the most. I
- 55:01Speaker 1: was like, wow.
- 55:03Speaker 3: And she literally said, you guys are my family, even
- 55:08Speaker 3: though I didn't want you. And I, it's so true.
- 55:13Speaker 3: Sometimes your family isn't actually your family.
- 55:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 55:18Speaker 3: And this is why she should have been center snowflake
- 55:21Speaker 3: because bitch, in that one scene, She gave us so much.
- 55:28Speaker 3: And I couldn't believe that either, Carlos.
- 55:31Speaker 1: No, it saddened me. But look, great premiere. I thought
- 55:38Speaker 1: it was a job well done based on the balance.
- 55:42Speaker 1: And look, Monica Carlo is back, bitches. Every week, recapping
- 55:47Speaker 1: the latest season of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Monica,
