- 0:31Speaker 1: On today's episode of Reality of the King, my girlfriend
- 0:34Speaker 1: is back, my sister from another mister. I love it

- 0:40Speaker 1: everywhere my love. Give it up for the amazing punt
- 0:44Speaker 1: intended Kate Kasey.
- 0:47Speaker 3: Hello, I'm so fired enough, ready to talk, so excited.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Should we just die right in? Because I felt like, well,
- 0:57Speaker 2: let me just start here.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Obviously, we're gonna recap the latest episode of The Real
- 1:00Speaker 1: Housewives Ability Hills. You and I have the best spirited
- 1:05Speaker 1: conversations because sometimes we're aligne sometimes we're not, But at
- 1:08Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's the best conversation ever.
- 1:12Speaker 2: I really enjoyed this episode, you did.
- 1:17Speaker 3: I enjoyed the I think the previous one. More, Okay,
- 1:21Speaker 3: that was more in my style, where it's just like
- 1:24Speaker 3: you get to go to someone's house and you meet
- 1:26Speaker 3: their weird parents and then you figure out, like why
- 1:28Speaker 3: they're such a weirdo. I love that more. This episode
- 1:32Speaker 3: felt to me like I also like it, but not
- 1:36Speaker 3: as much. This is like almost like a workplace comedy.
- 1:39Speaker 3: They don't realize they're in it, but it's a workplace comedy.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Yes, it's like the Office or something. Yes it is.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Oh god, why is his name? I'll have a brave part.
- 1:52Speaker 1: The lead actor Kate from The Offense.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Oh, Michael Scott, No, that's the character. Oh well yes,
- 2:01Speaker 3: but yeah, the actor Steve Carell.
- 2:03Speaker 2: Thank you, Kate, Steve Carell. Sutton is Steve Carell.
- 2:08Speaker 3: She's She's definitely not most observant of oneself, that's for sure.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Yes, it was fascinating, but let's just get right into it,
- 2:18Speaker 1: because the beginning of this episode obviously is the continuation
- 2:21Speaker 1: of the previous where Sutton is an Augusta Georgia and
- 2:27Speaker 1: I along with you, I want to say, me and
- 2:29Speaker 1: you do agree on this, Like, Sutton is obviously a
- 2:33Speaker 1: very interesting character on the show. We don't get a
- 2:37Speaker 1: chance to see her children because her husband unfortunately won't
- 2:40Speaker 1: sign off for the kids to be on the show.
- 2:43Speaker 3: But wait a minute, aren't they over eighteen?
- 2:46Speaker 2: Are all of them over eighteen or the some of.
- 2:48Speaker 3: Them at least two are?
- 2:53Speaker 2: So are they just not interested?
- 2:55Speaker 3: Probably? I think the daughter may be graduating from college.
- 3:01Speaker 3: I think I read that she's going to go to
- 3:02Speaker 3: law school or wants to go to law school, so
- 3:04Speaker 3: she might be like, this is not my vibe.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no.
- 3:08Speaker 3: And I think the other goes to maybe the Citadel.
- 3:11Speaker 3: I think he's in a military academy.
- 3:14Speaker 4: Oh Wowow do you have to say, I do look
- 3:18Speaker 4: at someone's kids and and if they're as you know,
- 3:23Speaker 4: as successful.
- 3:25Speaker 3: As they seem, you do have to give it to
- 3:27Speaker 3: some and then her ex husband. I mean, they do
- 3:29Speaker 3: seem to have raised successful kids maybe and maybe wise
- 3:34Speaker 3: for them to, you know, keep off the show to
- 3:37Speaker 3: maintain their anonymity.
- 3:40Speaker 2: Similar to but it sucks for us.
- 3:43Speaker 3: But it sucks for us. I know Erica Jane too.
- 3:46Speaker 3: You have to say, props her. She seems to have
- 3:48Speaker 3: raised a very successful you know. I was just say,
- 3:51Speaker 3: they all kind of seem to have raised really nice kids.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Are good, Yeah, even like Mauricio and Kyle great parents,
- 4:01Speaker 1: the kids are great.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Yeah. Grsel seems like a really present, about understanding, empathetic mother,
- 4:09Speaker 3: So props to them.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Yes, what are your thoughts, Ariba, I want to get
- 4:13Speaker 1: your thoughts.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Oh, a lot, a lot, I have a lot start.
- 4:17Speaker 3: Definitely a product of her generation. She even says it,
- 4:23Speaker 3: and I when she said it, I kept thinking about
- 4:26Speaker 3: my own relatives. I think that women that are well women.
- 4:31Speaker 3: I think both men and women that were born to
- 4:33Speaker 3: parents that were in the war or out of the
- 4:36Speaker 3: war are much more cold and detached because that was
- 4:41Speaker 3: how they were raised. They were not coddled. It was
- 4:44Speaker 3: very much like keep like my own mother would say.
- 4:48Speaker 3: If I ever cry about anything, my mom says, there
- 4:50Speaker 3: are other people have more problems in the world. Keep
- 4:52Speaker 3: your chin up, keep moving. And I think that Sutton
- 4:56Speaker 3: was born in a home like that. I also think
- 4:59Speaker 3: Reba's interesting because she's a therapist. Sometimes I find therapists
- 5:04Speaker 3: are interesting characters because they're so great with their own clients,
- 5:09Speaker 3: but not so much with their own kids.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Like kn' is still a bastard and her mother exactly.
- 5:15Speaker 3: And then the added component of Reba's definitely in deep
- 5:19Speaker 3: grief because of what happened with her husband. I think
- 5:23Speaker 3: that she is confused by her daughter because her daughter seemingly,
- 5:29Speaker 3: I think, in her eyes, has had a great life.
- 5:32Speaker 3: She had every opportunity in the world, was a successful,
- 5:35Speaker 3: successful ballet dancer, was married to someone with an abundance
- 5:41Speaker 3: of money and resources, and lives a very nice life.
- 5:45Speaker 3: And she what I got from her was like, what
- 5:48Speaker 3: are you complaining about all of those things? And she's
- 5:53Speaker 3: a woman of a certain generation in the South, so
- 5:56Speaker 3: the scenes that she has with Garcel are are so jarring.
- 6:03Speaker 3: She is so dismissive of Garcel, like that one scene
- 6:07Speaker 3: where she's sort of dismissive of her and then Kyle
- 6:10Speaker 3: walks in and she's commenting on her beauty. Yeah, very
- 6:13Speaker 3: painful to watch.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Yes, it was painful for me to watch. Listen.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Riba is a woman that obviously grew up in an
- 6:21Speaker 1: era where it was in the South, no less right
- 6:26Speaker 1: where it appears.
- 6:28Speaker 2: And I'm not going to call her names because.
- 6:30Speaker 1: We're not here to do that, but it doesn't appear
- 6:32Speaker 1: that she may not have had the best interactions with
- 6:35Speaker 1: people who are black, right, And it was jarring for
- 6:40Speaker 1: me as a black person to watch it because I
- 6:42Speaker 1: was sort of like, I felt uncomfortable watching it, and
- 6:45Speaker 1: I felt uncomfortable for Garcel because to me, I felt
- 6:49Speaker 1: like Garcel was trying so hard, so hard to have
- 6:53Speaker 1: a connection with her, and Riba just wasn't here for it.
- 6:57Speaker 1: She just wasn't here for it, even saying to her
- 7:01Speaker 1: when Garcella is like, look, your daughter wants you to
- 7:06Speaker 1: say you're proud of her, and she's like, well, I
- 7:09Speaker 1: don't think that's any of.
- 7:10Speaker 2: Your business, and look, it may not be. It may
- 7:13Speaker 2: not be, but.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I also think there's a way of telling somebody to
- 7:18Speaker 1: mind your business that didn't seem so hard. I just
- 7:21Speaker 1: felt like that was one example in addition to tons
- 7:25Speaker 1: of examples in her treatment towards Garcel and what I
- 7:29Speaker 1: will hope to happen at the.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Reunion and this is me just being honest.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Garcel has talked about Dere's microaggressions. I need for Garcela
- 7:39Speaker 1: to talk about Rebus and if that's not brought up,
- 7:43Speaker 1: it's it's going to be an issue. Because when it
- 7:47Speaker 1: came to Dorry saying all Garcila, you're attacking me. The
- 7:54Speaker 1: line was divided in terms of whether people thought it
- 7:56Speaker 1: was microaggressions or at the end of the day, the
- 7:59Speaker 1: reasonal reality show with women and housewives attack each other
- 8:03Speaker 1: what Riba was displaying to me and to the world.
- 8:07Speaker 2: And it's funny because.
- 8:08Speaker 1: A lot of my white friends text me and said,
- 8:12Speaker 1: I just want you to know I feel uncomfortable watching
- 8:16Speaker 1: this right. So my hope is that Garcell can talk
- 8:21Speaker 1: about dreads microaggression is that she said she had we
- 8:26Speaker 1: have to address ribus.
- 8:29Speaker 3: So I wondered too if there was some sort of
- 8:33Speaker 3: interview that they did with Sutton where they asked her
- 8:37Speaker 3: about that, how her mother was kind of cold, not
- 8:41Speaker 3: kind of absolutely cold to Garcel, how that made her feel.
- 8:45Speaker 3: And I wonder if they didn't include it. I would
- 8:48Speaker 3: be shocked that they wouldn't ask her about that. I mean,
- 8:50Speaker 3: it is so obvious. Why why would you not? That's
- 8:54Speaker 3: like the first question I would have, like, where was that?
- 8:58Speaker 2: Do you know this?
- 8:59Speaker 3: Kate?
- 9:00Speaker 1: On the after show, Sudden revealed that Riba returned the
- 9:06Speaker 1: gift back to Garcel.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Did you know that?
- 9:10Speaker 3: I did not know that.
- 9:12Speaker 1: So the spark that she gave Riba, Riba returned it
- 9:16Speaker 1: back to Garcel.
- 9:18Speaker 3: I want, like, is Sudden afraid of her mother? Could
- 9:21Speaker 3: can't she say something to her like this is one
- 9:24Speaker 3: of my closest friends. How dare you disrespect her in
- 9:28Speaker 3: my home? Nonetheless, is she like afraid of her? Is
- 9:31Speaker 3: that what's going on?
- 9:32Speaker 1: It appears to me that this not to be a psychiatrist,
- 9:37Speaker 1: because I'm not. But one thing I was told and
- 9:40Speaker 1: I would love to get your insight because you have
- 9:42Speaker 1: five beautiful children and I.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Want to get your thoughts on this.
- 9:47Speaker 1: A woman once told me that a girl's first bully
- 9:51Speaker 1: is her mother.
- 9:53Speaker 2: It's in some cases, right, huh.
- 9:55Speaker 1: It appears to me that because Sutton was also to
- 10:00Speaker 1: her dad, possibly there could have been some jealousy there
- 10:04Speaker 1: with Sutton and her mother. Not and listen, I'm not
- 10:07Speaker 1: blaming Sutton at all, because a child should not should
- 10:10Speaker 1: not be blamed for how their parents treat them because
- 10:13Speaker 1: the child was did not ask to be brought to
- 10:16Speaker 1: the world read.
- 10:18Speaker 2: But it is very cold to Sutton.
- 10:21Speaker 1: And like you said earlier, your mother was like, girl,
- 10:24Speaker 1: wipe them tears. There's other people who have bigger problems,
- 10:27Speaker 1: and I think that's okay to no.
- 10:30Speaker 3: I see, I see my mother and Reba trust me
- 10:33Speaker 3: all you do?
- 10:34Speaker 2: Oh?
- 10:34Speaker 3: Yeah, that is that's how I was raised with somebody
- 10:37Speaker 3: who is very cold and detached, extremely cold and detached. Yes.
- 10:41Speaker 1: What is her advice then to Sutton as as an
- 10:44Speaker 1: adult woman who is now, you know, a mother and
- 10:50Speaker 1: was able to you know, have children and maybe look
- 10:54Speaker 1: at some of what your mother did to you as
- 10:56Speaker 1: a way of saying, well.
- 10:57Speaker 2: I'm going to be different.
- 10:58Speaker 3: Well, you can't ask some money who is devoid of
- 11:02Speaker 3: interest and introspection to suddenly gain some It's impossible. The
- 11:07Speaker 3: only thing you can do is set your own boundaries.
- 11:11Speaker 3: So you need to say, you know, in my home
- 11:15Speaker 3: you will not do the following. This is not acceptable
- 11:18Speaker 3: to me. But you can't expect her to suddenly have
- 11:21Speaker 3: some introspection and insight because it's it's just never going
- 11:24Speaker 3: to be there.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and that that appeared to be evidema.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Look at the very end, she she told her daughter,
- 11:32Speaker 1: I love you, with the resounding applause from Cogre and
- 11:36Speaker 1: Garsel and listen for me. I appreciate the fact we
- 11:41Speaker 1: were able to go to Augusta because I strongly believe
- 11:46Speaker 1: that we're eating reality star if you want to understand them,
- 11:49Speaker 1: and I and I felt it was very hard to
- 11:52Speaker 1: connect to and as a viewer because we don't see
- 11:55Speaker 1: her children, we don't see her ex husband, we don't
- 11:58Speaker 1: see a sibling, we don't see a family member. So
- 12:01Speaker 1: we finally got a chance to see Riba, and I
- 12:04Speaker 1: think after seeing that, I'm not able to understand a
- 12:07Speaker 1: lot about Sutton. I had a chance to meet her recently.
- 12:10Speaker 1: She was lovely, very kind, very nice, but I always
- 12:14Speaker 1: felt that as a viewer it was just hard to
- 12:16Speaker 1: connect to her because there wasn't enough to deal with.
- 12:19Speaker 1: And I'll ended with this, Kate. It reminded me of
- 12:22Speaker 1: how Kenya Moore Atlanta Housewife as Harold did us like
- 12:26Speaker 1: the best villain that Alance has ever seen. And that
- 12:30Speaker 1: season we went to Detroit and we went to her
- 12:34Speaker 1: mother's home right and Kenya knocked on the door and
- 12:39Speaker 1: we heard her mother say lock the door. And that
- 12:41Speaker 1: that scene, one hundred percent of the audience said, I
- 12:45Speaker 1: now understand Kenya.
- 12:47Speaker 3: I actually have always felt a real connection to Kenya
- 12:52Speaker 3: because there is something that is deeply painful about the
- 12:57Speaker 3: rejection of a parent for me as my father, but
- 13:02Speaker 3: for her to go into pageants was her way of
- 13:07Speaker 3: This is the part that I absolutely related to and
- 13:09Speaker 3: I think a lot of people do. When you have
- 13:11Speaker 3: a parent that is dismissive abandons you, sometimes you go
- 13:15Speaker 3: on the other side of the coin where you try
- 13:17Speaker 3: to have incredible success because you're chasing the acknowledgment of
- 13:21Speaker 3: a parent that never will give it to you. You
- 13:24Speaker 3: just won't. And that way, I think that there is
- 13:29Speaker 3: a common thread with Kenya and Sutton. Sutton's never going
- 13:34Speaker 3: to get the acknowledgment that she wants. The one thing
- 13:36Speaker 3: I did think was in her own small way, was
- 13:40Speaker 3: that her act of like an act of her own
- 13:47Speaker 3: empowerment to have them come to Augusta the camera crew,
- 13:52Speaker 3: but being selective with just two women, so instead of
- 13:57Speaker 3: having the total ensemble cast. Her relationship with Garcel and
- 14:03Speaker 3: Garcel having time with Reeba may have been fewer and
- 14:06Speaker 3: far between, but was that her like an active defiance
- 14:09Speaker 3: against her mother too, Like I need you to spend
- 14:12Speaker 3: time with this very close friend of mine. I don't know.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Listen, I I can pick up what you're dropping.
- 14:22Speaker 1: I think it was I have a friend, she's black,
- 14:26Speaker 1: she's successful. I really like her, and I want you
- 14:30Speaker 1: to spend time with her. Because I never thought about that.
- 14:33Speaker 1: That's why I love having you on. I think Kyle
- 14:36Speaker 1: coming along with listen, I always thought it was weird,
- 14:38Speaker 1: like you guys aren't that close, So Kyle coming I
- 14:42Speaker 1: always thought was weird. But I think Kyle was used
- 14:44Speaker 1: as a buffer to make her mother feel more comfortable,
- 14:47Speaker 1: like I'm going to bring my black friend and I'll
- 14:51Speaker 1: bring my white friend, so that there seems to be
- 14:54Speaker 1: some balance. I do agree with that one thousand percent.
- 14:57Speaker 1: I think Son was very, very a thought acol in
- 15:01Speaker 1: her attempt to try to get her mother to really
- 15:06Speaker 1: see her life. And look, I think I wonder if
- 15:11Speaker 1: Someding regrets having her mother on the show.
- 15:13Speaker 2: Because I'm not the only person saying this, You're not.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Everybody is saying like, look, Reba appears to have a
- 15:20Speaker 1: lot of things she needs to work on when it
- 15:24Speaker 1: comes to the way she treats people.
- 15:26Speaker 3: And she's a therapist. You know, I have a relative
- 15:29Speaker 3: who is a priest, coldest person I've ever met in
- 15:33Speaker 3: my entire life. That is always what shocks me, Like,
- 15:37Speaker 3: if you're not an empathetic person, why are you a therapist?
- 15:42Speaker 3: Why someone hating children and being a teacher? What huh?
- 15:53Speaker 3: Am missing something?
- 15:58Speaker 1: But I never thought about that because I think people
- 16:00Speaker 1: are listen. I'm glad you're reminding me. Is a therapist?
- 16:04Speaker 2: Yeah, but Riba needs to see needs to see a therapist.
- 16:07Speaker 3: But I think they typically do. They typically do. I
- 16:11Speaker 3: only know this because I watched a show about therapists,
- 16:14Speaker 3: and they typically do. I would love to know who
- 16:18Speaker 3: all of her clients are. To her clients all look
- 16:21Speaker 3: like one kind of person.
- 16:23Speaker 2: Mm hmmm mm hmm.
- 16:25Speaker 1: I think so if you can be so cold to
- 16:30Speaker 1: your daughter's friend who was nothing but lovely, lovely, and
- 16:35Speaker 1: then to add insult to injury, you return the gift.
- 16:41Speaker 1: It's a scarf. I mean, it wasn't like it was like.
- 16:44Speaker 3: This, like so rude about it, like what am I
- 16:47Speaker 3: going to do with this?
- 16:49Speaker 1: It was like a liberachi, you know, sort of like
- 16:53Speaker 1: artwork that that's a little bit like, of course, like
- 16:56Speaker 1: not her taste.
- 16:57Speaker 2: It's a scarf that.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Obviously give to your cleaning lady, give it like give
- 17:02Speaker 1: it to the mailman.
- 17:05Speaker 2: But to listen, I'm gonna move on from it.
- 17:09Speaker 1: There's a message to me that was sent by her
- 17:13Speaker 1: returning it back to Garcel. I think I think that
- 17:16Speaker 1: sent no pun intended. I think it's sent a very
- 17:18Speaker 1: strong message.
- 17:20Speaker 2: To me, Yeah to me.
- 17:22Speaker 1: Okay, now speaking of strong messages and a strong drink.
- 17:27Speaker 1: So here we are listen. Derry is having a Fourth
- 17:31Speaker 1: of July party celebrating America, and everything is done in red,
- 17:35Speaker 1: white and blue.
- 17:36Speaker 2: She's getting things together.
- 17:39Speaker 1: It's early and she arrives Dery in typical three fashioned
- 17:44Speaker 1: pun intended. Is it her closet getting ready for you know,
- 17:47Speaker 1: getting gland ready? And Sudden is there for a long time,
- 17:51Speaker 1: but then Kyle comes.
- 17:53Speaker 2: They go in the backyard.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Garcella is there, and then a conversation ensued about whether
- 18:01Speaker 1: or not Sutton has alcohol in her drink, and Duri
- 18:06Speaker 1: made a common like it's suthing. Of course it's alcohol,
- 18:12Speaker 1: and Sutton lose this her shit and cost her a bitch. Yeah,
- 18:17Speaker 1: and Dereise says, I would like it if you don't
- 18:20Speaker 1: call me a bitch in my own house, and then
- 18:22Speaker 1: Sutton leaves.
- 18:24Speaker 2: I mean, kay.
- 18:25Speaker 1: We have a lot of pactages from there because there's
- 18:27Speaker 1: so much more that happened afterwards.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, here's my question for your audience, because I
- 18:35Speaker 3: have not known many people that have alcoholism or a
- 18:41Speaker 3: loved one with it, so this is a question I have.
- 18:44Speaker 3: Is it strange? Because it seems strange to me that
- 18:48Speaker 3: Durak the season has talked openly about Pek's alcoholism. She
- 18:55Speaker 3: suggests that a sponsor was the one that suggested that
- 18:58Speaker 3: they get separated, and she's been flippant about the possibility
- 19:05Speaker 3: that PK and Kyle part of their friendship is based
- 19:09Speaker 3: on their shared sobriety, and then makes flippant comments about
- 19:14Speaker 3: Sutton and her drinking. Is that strange?
- 19:18Speaker 2: I love you so much because as if you were.
- 19:21Speaker 1: I laughed at the moment because to me, it was
- 19:23Speaker 1: like feeling funny, and that's why we watched these shows.
- 19:26Speaker 1: But then, Kay, as I kept watching it, I swear
- 19:29Speaker 1: to you, I thought about, like, wait a second, you
- 19:33Speaker 1: talked about your husband and his alcoholism and the things
- 19:38Speaker 1: you've seen, and you know, we talked about how the
- 19:41Speaker 1: retold everybody with an earshot PK was an alcoholic. So
- 19:46Speaker 1: even if it was a flippant joke, I think, look,
- 19:50Speaker 1: knowing what you're dealing with, and then to even use
- 19:54Speaker 1: that as a joke, I did find weird after I
- 19:58Speaker 1: really processed this moment because of what we've been seeing
- 20:04Speaker 1: and largely one of the reasons why a lot of
- 20:07Speaker 1: people do feel bad for duree Is because of what
- 20:10Speaker 1: she had to experience with PK's alcoholism and having a
- 20:13Speaker 1: sponsor and all those things. So if you think for
- 20:16Speaker 1: a second that something does have a problem, and listen,
- 20:20Speaker 1: no one has said she does.
- 20:21Speaker 2: I want to be that very clear. But if you
- 20:24Speaker 2: feel like well drinks.
- 20:25Speaker 1: A lot, one would argue be a little bit more
- 20:30Speaker 1: sensitive if that's the case, based on what you're dealing
- 20:33Speaker 1: with with your husband.
- 20:35Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, I have one friend in town, and I
- 20:37Speaker 3: remember I said to her, I don't know, about six
- 20:39Speaker 3: months ago, something like about her ex husband. He said
- 20:43Speaker 3: he I noticed, he said he doesn't drink. And her
- 20:46Speaker 3: response immediately was, that's really his story to tell.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Amen.
- 20:51Speaker 3: And so when I watched those scenes, I thought of
- 20:53Speaker 3: my own friend and that response, And so it's strange
- 20:58Speaker 3: to me that Duriek doesn't have a little bit more
- 21:01Speaker 3: empathy or says something like that. So we have a
- 21:03Speaker 3: little bit more contexts.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Agree, I said the same thing when she when she
- 21:08Speaker 1: told both for the first time, I sent this podcast.
- 21:11Speaker 1: That's not your story to tell people, that is PK story.
- 21:15Speaker 1: Just like when a woman is pregnant it's not anyone
- 21:19Speaker 1: else's story to tell people.
- 21:21Speaker 2: You know, this woman's pregnant.
- 21:24Speaker 1: Sutton obviously had a strong reaction, and I want to
- 21:27Speaker 1: get her thoughts on it, not to diagnose Sun either.
- 21:32Speaker 1: She did say that she's sick of it because they
- 21:34Speaker 1: tried to perpetuate last season in the season before that,
- 21:39Speaker 1: that she drinks a lot and.
- 21:41Speaker 2: That it messed her up. These are her words. It
- 21:43Speaker 2: mess her up.
- 21:44Speaker 1: You know, people are gossipping about it, and she's uncomfortable.
- 21:49Speaker 1: I understand where Sun is coming from if that's not
- 21:52Speaker 1: if because she feels that way and she said it
- 21:55Speaker 1: now the remay and I have known that obviously, but
- 22:00Speaker 1: I too would be upset if you're trying to make
- 22:04Speaker 1: jokes about me and drinking. Anna Marie was on my
- 22:09Speaker 1: podcast last season and she made a comment that about Sutton,
- 22:13Speaker 1: the cass make comments about Sudden and her drinking, whether
- 22:16Speaker 1: or not she has to.
- 22:17Speaker 2: Her coffee cup whatever.
- 22:20Speaker 1: Do you think something was right for having that strong
- 22:22Speaker 1: reaction based on they're constantly perpetuating these rumors with her.
- 22:27Speaker 3: Well, I mean, it's hard to say, because it's that's
- 22:29Speaker 3: how she feels. I think that what I'm missing from
- 22:33Speaker 3: Sudden under read is a little bit more explanation and there,
- 22:37Speaker 3: and they're in the moment interviews or they're confessionals. It's
- 22:40Speaker 3: like if alcoholism is a touchy subject in her own space,
- 22:46Speaker 3: so in her own interview, I wish that she would
- 22:48Speaker 3: talk a little bit about that why it upsets her,
- 22:52Speaker 3: because there's there's some freedom in being able to express
- 22:55Speaker 3: yourself if it's just the one on one interview. So
- 22:59Speaker 3: I think if I had a little bit more of that,
- 23:01Speaker 3: and if I had a little bit more from Derey
- 23:03Speaker 3: about her marriage, because it just feels like it fell
- 23:06Speaker 3: out of nowhere, Like she said we're better than ever
- 23:10Speaker 3: at the last reunion, and then all of a sudden
- 23:11Speaker 3: the season started, she's like, you know, I don't know
- 23:15Speaker 3: who he is anymore, but she doesn't explain it in
- 23:18Speaker 3: those solo interviews. I think if I had that element,
- 23:22Speaker 3: I would be a little bit more maybe understanding and
- 23:25Speaker 3: less confused. So I think both of them just feel
- 23:30Speaker 3: it feels very disjointed to me their personal stories this season.
- 23:36Speaker 3: I don't feel like I have really a great grasp
- 23:38Speaker 3: of like where they're coming from and where they are
- 23:40Speaker 3: right now in our life.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Yes, because the thing is this DERI and I agree
- 23:45Speaker 2: with you.
- 23:45Speaker 1: They don't do the best job at explaining what's going on,
- 23:48Speaker 1: because let's have a real conversation, Kate.
- 23:51Speaker 2: They hide stuff from us.
- 23:52Speaker 1: Yeah, like dere MPK issues did not all of a
- 23:55Speaker 1: sudden happen right doing the break.
- 23:58Speaker 2: You guys have been hiding matter.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Issues because you wanted to once again perpetuate that you
- 24:04Speaker 1: guys were good.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Same thing of Kyle. I love you some, Kyle.
- 24:07Speaker 1: Clearly you and maurisil have had tons of issues throughout
- 24:11Speaker 1: your marriage that you neglected to share on camera.
- 24:14Speaker 2: So that's why we're confused about this.
- 24:16Speaker 3: I should have included her in that too, all three
- 24:19Speaker 3: of them. I wish that you know, all of them
- 24:21Speaker 3: would kind of say, by the way you could see
- 24:23Speaker 3: in two sentences, I haven't always been completely honest about
- 24:27Speaker 3: the status of my marriage. I have felt at times
- 24:30Speaker 3: uncomfortable really revealing how I feel personally because I wanted
- 24:35Speaker 3: to protect my children, or I wasn't really willing to
- 24:38Speaker 3: admit the things that I've done in my own marriage
- 24:41Speaker 3: that was not of support to a partner who I
- 24:43Speaker 3: now understand was completely disconnected to me. Whatever, I just
- 24:48Speaker 3: need a couple of sentences and I think that's true
- 24:51Speaker 3: of Kyle Dory and Sudden. There's a real disconnect. And
- 24:57Speaker 3: and I say this because in fairness, I've said that
- 24:59Speaker 3: about Eric past seasons. Yeah, you know, we've taken Erica
- 25:04Speaker 3: to task for that, So why are we not taking
- 25:06Speaker 3: them to task for it too?
- 25:08Speaker 2: Yet?
- 25:08Speaker 1: Listen, one thing about the Beverly Hills Housewives, and I
- 25:11Speaker 1: love them all. The show is not known for personal story.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Let's have a real conversation. True, you know, it's not
- 25:17Speaker 1: known for us seeing the cracks of the relationship. You
- 25:20Speaker 1: and I always talk about Needing Leeks being a great
- 25:22Speaker 1: housewife because she always showed you the cracks early on,
- 25:26Speaker 1: right with her father. Your favorite scene in the world
- 25:29Speaker 1: of Atlanta was going to Athens and her meeting her
- 25:31Speaker 1: father on the park benches. You saw the cracks in
- 25:34Speaker 1: her relationship with Greg unfold to where you know, you
- 25:38Speaker 1: saw the hierarchy change in terms of she's the breadwinner
- 25:42Speaker 1: and he's not identified anymore as a powerful man.
- 25:47Speaker 2: You get to see some of these things with Belly Hills.
- 25:51Speaker 1: The unfortunate thing about Belly Hills to me and I
- 25:53Speaker 1: love the show, Unfortunately we get the end result and
- 25:57Speaker 1: we don't get any backstory.
- 25:59Speaker 2: We can't. We're filling for divorce. Hold up one fucking second.
- 26:04Speaker 2: I didn't see one argument. Think about it.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Of all the divorces from Beverly Hills, we were never
- 26:10Speaker 1: led up to that moment occurring the way the way
- 26:14Speaker 1: the way we were with Tamer Judge and her ex
- 26:16Speaker 1: husband in the limo, like we we saw the build
- 26:20Speaker 1: up because we saw that we was saw with Vicky
- 26:22Speaker 1: a don my love bubble. My take is it was
- 26:25Speaker 1: like he's a good guy. Though Vicky, we don't see
- 26:28Speaker 1: that on Beverly Hills. So again to your point, when
- 26:31Speaker 1: sudden has this big reaction, I want this son to
- 26:35Speaker 1: explain to your point in interview, look, when it comestant drinking,
- 26:39Speaker 1: that's a sense of subject for X amount of reasons
- 26:42Speaker 1: or I need more. Because to see Kyle and Garcel
- 26:48Speaker 1: run after her, I understood Garcel doing it because they
- 26:52Speaker 1: have that friendship. The Kyle things surprised me, and maybe
- 26:55Speaker 1: it's because they just left Augusta. But in Beverly and Kate,
- 27:00Speaker 1: you know more about that world than me, sister, I
- 27:03Speaker 1: think I'm on both side it terms of it's a
- 27:05Speaker 1: bit uncouthed to leave the house.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Oh, the house party.
- 27:12Speaker 3: Well, but it's also uncouth to wait have someone wait
- 27:15Speaker 3: forty minutes at your own party, you know. I always
- 27:17Speaker 3: say it's the small things that say so much about somebody.
- 27:21Speaker 3: That's why I'm like, like, bo Is, why are you
- 27:24Speaker 3: talking to Dree? Seems to me so absolutely selfish an
- 27:29Speaker 3: in her own world, like the fact that you would
- 27:31Speaker 3: invite people and then not even come down because you're
- 27:33Speaker 3: inherent makeup. It's like we're going, not going to the oscars.
- 27:36Speaker 3: You're still in a little scene here, like what are
- 27:38Speaker 3: we talking about? Although I will say I still can
- 27:41Speaker 3: never forget when she's talking about PTSD from the robbery
- 27:46Speaker 3: and PK is like like, get over it. Do you
- 27:49Speaker 3: remember how weird that was? Too? Yeah, like if someone
- 27:52Speaker 3: broke into your home with a gun and like what weird?
- 27:58Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 27:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like are we on planet Zorb?
- 28:01Speaker 2: Like?
- 28:02Speaker 3: What where? How do we get back to Earth? What
- 28:04Speaker 3: is happening here?
- 28:07Speaker 2: Weird child? We are just getting started.
- 28:22Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show. So did you did
- 28:31Speaker 1: you think it was hypocrisy? Because when Kyle left the
- 28:36Speaker 1: Red No, it was it was Bozy Ban yeah, when
- 28:39Speaker 1: Garcia garself. When Kyle left, Bowsey bent the whole pamp event,
- 28:44Speaker 1: and a sudden was like, who does Kyle think she
- 28:46Speaker 1: is the fucking queen? I'm paraphrasing, Yeah, but something pulled
- 28:49Speaker 1: the same move Kyle clocked in.
- 28:51Speaker 3: This is when it becomes a workplace comedy. They don't
- 28:54Speaker 3: realize where they're in a comedy, but they're in a
- 28:56Speaker 3: comedy because it's all employees pissed each other. Because why
- 29:01Speaker 3: do they get to leave work like the retreat early?
- 29:04Speaker 3: Why you know that's all it is. Yes, that's just
- 29:07Speaker 3: power dynamics of like on the show, they don't it's
- 29:10Speaker 3: not really about real friendship and feeling distant or any
- 29:12Speaker 3: of that. So that's a workplace situation, right.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Yes, yes, let me tell you something as a as
- 29:18Speaker 1: a reality producer. Okay, when it's an ensemble show, nobody
- 29:24Speaker 1: meaning a cast member does not want to feel like
- 29:27Speaker 1: another cast member has one.
- 29:30Speaker 2: Leg up on them.
- 29:31Speaker 1: Whether that's they get to behave this way and get
- 29:34Speaker 1: away with it, they get to leave early, they don't
- 29:37Speaker 1: have to talk about their personal story.
- 29:39Speaker 2: So when you guys see something in.
- 29:41Speaker 1: The previous episodes, complain about Kyle, I hope you guys
- 29:45Speaker 1: understood she wasn't complain about Kyle within the within the
- 29:48Speaker 1: confinements of this quote unquote sisterhood, there was more so
- 29:53Speaker 1: Kyle is the og.
- 29:54Speaker 2: Why does she get away with certain things?
- 29:57Speaker 1: She gets away with not explaining to us about more game,
- 30:00Speaker 1: she gets.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Away with leaving a party early and can take the.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Because Cole admitted this that after she left, she took
- 30:09Speaker 1: a few days off of work because she had to
- 30:10Speaker 1: get herself together, So Suton was complaining about that. So
- 30:15Speaker 1: when Sutton decided to give Kyle a taste of her
- 30:18Speaker 1: own medicine by leaving, I did find it strange that Again,
- 30:23Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Sudden when she was texting somebody my
- 30:25Speaker 1: belief could this happens to me when I was a
- 30:27Speaker 1: showrunner on Housewives. She's texting the producers allegedly like I'm
- 30:32Speaker 1: out of here and don't fucking stop me. Yeah, yeah,
- 30:35Speaker 1: it's Kate's right. It's a power dynamic. And what you
- 30:41Speaker 1: guys aren't seeing that I can explain to you is
- 30:47Speaker 1: the barbecue had nothing to do with how much Baka
- 30:51Speaker 1: Sudden had her cup and had everything to do with
- 30:54Speaker 1: the power dynamics of how these women feel about each other,
- 30:58Speaker 1: and that's the reason to me why they slightly broke
- 31:01Speaker 1: the fourth wall and Kate, I can't wait to get
- 31:03Speaker 1: the thoughts on it, because I know you caught it
- 31:05Speaker 1: too when Kyle and Garcil was chastised by Bows and
- 31:10Speaker 1: they gave it back to her and they started talking
- 31:13Speaker 1: about like, why are you her mouthpiece? Why why all
- 31:16Speaker 1: of a sudden are you standing up for her? That conversation, guys,
- 31:20Speaker 1: was about the alliance that they all have and they're
- 31:23Speaker 1: finally addressing it.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely without a question, you know. Coupled with that,
- 31:28Speaker 3: I have a question for you because I was thinking
- 31:30Speaker 3: about this when these cast members join these shows, because
- 31:34Speaker 3: you have the privilege of meeting them oftentimes before their
- 31:38Speaker 3: first season or even like in their early seasons, and
- 31:41Speaker 3: then you see them kind of transform into different people
- 31:45Speaker 3: the longer they are on. Are there any actual cast
- 31:49Speaker 3: members that do have introspection after watching themselves on a show,
- 31:53Speaker 3: or do you find that they get more and more selfish?
- 31:56Speaker 3: Because what we're asking for as an audience member and
- 31:59Speaker 3: a lot of the scenes is for someone to have
- 32:02Speaker 3: a moment while they're filming to go, wait, you know,
- 32:05Speaker 3: I am being ridiculous, or at a reunion saying I
- 32:08Speaker 3: watched that scene back and I realized how absurd I
- 32:11Speaker 3: was being, or how I had not really given that
- 32:14Speaker 3: person the benefit of the doubt. When I watch scenes
- 32:17Speaker 3: like that, the one that you just mentioned, it seems
- 32:20Speaker 3: like they're getting exponentially more selfish and in their own minds,
- 32:26Speaker 3: it almost seems impossible for them to have a level
- 32:28Speaker 3: headed conversation. So my question again is do you find
- 32:33Speaker 3: that people who join these ensemble shows do they become
- 32:37Speaker 3: exponentially more selfish and less introspective as time goes on,
- 32:41Speaker 3: or is there are there exceptions to the rule where
- 32:43Speaker 3: there are actually cast members that go, yeah, what was
- 32:46Speaker 3: I thinking?
- 32:48Speaker 1: It's rare to have a cast and saying, oh shit,
- 32:51Speaker 1: I looked at myself. I I look crazy. It's on
- 32:55Speaker 1: me it listen. Unfortunately it's rare. What happens is they
- 33:01Speaker 1: blame editing and it's like, okay, so we put words
- 33:04Speaker 1: in your mouth, or like, we really have so much
- 33:07Speaker 1: time on our hands to sit back and say, how
- 33:09Speaker 1: can we make this scene so interesting that this person
- 33:13Speaker 1: can be seen as a villain and this other person
- 33:15Speaker 1: to be seen as the victim. Nobody has that time
- 33:18Speaker 1: to do that, so like, I want to start there
- 33:21Speaker 1: with you. It is rare, unfortunately, for a reality star
- 33:25Speaker 1: to have a little bit of introspective.
- 33:27Speaker 2: Moment of saying I look crazy or that was the
- 33:30Speaker 2: nicest moment. It is rare. Does it happen? Sure? Unfortunately.
- 33:35Speaker 1: What happens more is they don't double down on.
- 33:39Speaker 2: It the next season. What they do they become a recluse.
- 33:43Speaker 1: And that's the reason why you start to see reality
- 33:46Speaker 1: stars play up to the cameras for the fans. I've
- 33:49Speaker 1: said this once, and I'll say it again, and you
- 33:51Speaker 1: and I should do a separate episode about this. Social
- 33:54Speaker 1: media has ruined the reality star for sure, because they're
- 33:59Speaker 1: afraid to say anything and fear of getting canceled. They're
- 34:05Speaker 1: afraid to say anything in the fears of having a
- 34:08Speaker 1: TSUNONYMI of negative comments.
- 34:11Speaker 2: One of my examples will always be Diana Jenkins.
- 34:14Speaker 1: Who was on the show two seasons ago, who I
- 34:18Speaker 1: felt like was being her authentic self, which at the
- 34:21Speaker 1: end of the day, that's all we could ask for,
- 34:24Speaker 1: whether or not you liked her agree with her, that's
- 34:26Speaker 1: why we're here. We're here to watch these episodes and
- 34:29Speaker 1: judge them based on the episode. We're not supposed to
- 34:33Speaker 1: judge their behavior outside of the show, because I don't
- 34:36Speaker 1: give a shit.
- 34:36Speaker 2: I care about what habits on the show.
- 34:39Speaker 1: She is somebody who Obviously I've never seen this any
- 34:44Speaker 1: for any housewife.
- 34:45Speaker 2: The way Diana Jenkins was.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Negatively bullied by social media, I've never seen anything like
- 34:55Speaker 1: that for any housewife.
- 34:57Speaker 2: I'm being honest with you.
- 35:00Speaker 1: A lot of these housewives and reality starts are afraid
- 35:03Speaker 1: of that happening to them, and that's the reason why
- 35:06Speaker 1: you see them being safer. Duri is an example of
- 35:10Speaker 1: somebody who I love the first two seasons because she
- 35:13Speaker 1: was herself. Whether you liked or not, she was herself.
- 35:17Speaker 1: She got negative comments and I felt like she became
- 35:22Speaker 1: a recluse, and now she's getting her power.
- 35:25Speaker 2: Back, and that's the real dey we're seeing.
- 35:30Speaker 3: I don't know if that's the real deate we're saying.
- 35:32Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's the real side of her.
- 35:35Speaker 1: As it relates to her being fed up, I think
- 35:38Speaker 1: she yeah, how she she's Derey has realized this in
- 35:43Speaker 1: my opinion, as I'm watching her, I need this job.
- 35:48Speaker 1: I'm going through divorce. I will be a single mom
- 35:51Speaker 1: of two kids. I lived a certain lifestyle. I can't
- 35:55Speaker 1: go all the way backwards. Dart is like, these women
- 35:58Speaker 1: aren't really my friends. So I'm going to just be
- 36:01Speaker 1: brutally honest. I'm not gonna play it safe anymore, and
- 36:04Speaker 1: I'm gonna cast shit out as I think it as
- 36:06Speaker 1: I think it. That comment with about something there last
- 36:11Speaker 1: season would have thought it but never said it.
- 36:14Speaker 2: Derie is now saying things how she.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Feels in the moment, and she's unapologetic about it. Now
- 36:19Speaker 1: when it comes to Bows defending her, I want to
- 36:22Speaker 1: get to thoughts on this. I feel like they're all
- 36:25Speaker 1: mouthpieces for each other. I Likeell his mouthpiece, Bows is
- 36:31Speaker 1: dereyed and and and Taddy Mellercount was Kyne.
- 36:35Speaker 2: They all had it.
- 36:37Speaker 1: I don't understand why. And then Lisa Renda was Erica James.
- 36:40Speaker 1: Let's let's let's not act like this mouthpiece is new
- 36:43Speaker 1: to us.
- 36:44Speaker 3: Yep. Well also, and circling back to your original question
- 36:50Speaker 3: about that moment where you know someone's running out and
- 36:54Speaker 3: then you know, to your point that obvious alliances on
- 36:58Speaker 3: the other side of it, you side of it, the
- 37:00Speaker 3: crew side of it. What are the messages, what are
- 37:04Speaker 3: the conversations that you know you're being pulled aside because
- 37:07Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's like, why aren't you showing Why aren't
- 37:12Speaker 3: you showing that side of her? Because the burden is
- 37:15Speaker 3: on your team because you have seven stories you're trying
- 37:19Speaker 3: to tell and how they weave together. But then they
- 37:22Speaker 3: become less in the moment and trying to understand and
- 37:26Speaker 3: connect with one another, and they're so in their head
- 37:28Speaker 3: about the mechanics of the game, which is the alliances
- 37:34Speaker 3: and how much camera time and why does she get
- 37:36Speaker 3: to leave and I can't? And how much am I
- 37:39Speaker 3: being compensated if I have to be here longer? So
- 37:43Speaker 3: what are you experiencing on that other side? Are you
- 37:46Speaker 3: getting the text in the middle of a scene, like
- 37:49Speaker 3: does someone go into the bathroom with their phone and say,
- 37:52Speaker 3: this is straight bullshit? She's about to leave when you
- 37:54Speaker 3: didn't let me do that and I I'm not going
- 37:57Speaker 3: to stay right.
- 38:00Speaker 1: Yes, you'll you you will get a text message, you'll
- 38:03Speaker 1: get a phone call. The funny thing about being a
- 38:07Speaker 1: reality TV producer, and this is back in the day
- 38:09Speaker 1: when I was a we call it a field showrunner.
- 38:13Speaker 1: So for my audience, it's when you're an executive producer.
- 38:17Speaker 1: You're the showrunner and you're in the trenches like you're
- 38:19Speaker 1: on set for the for the for five months. I
- 38:23Speaker 1: obviously have graduated from that because I have a company,
- 38:25Speaker 1: so I have a team who do that.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Right. Well, I love you, thank you, baby.
- 38:30Speaker 1: But my experience as a showrunner on these shows, you
- 38:35Speaker 1: bet your ass. If a reality start leaves and she
- 38:41Speaker 1: is able to go home, oh honey, you would not
- 38:46Speaker 1: hear the last of it. These reality stars keep score,
- 38:51Speaker 1: are bad and.
- 38:53Speaker 2: They notice everything.
- 38:57Speaker 1: They'll notice if Carlos King is talking to one five
- 39:00Speaker 1: minutes longer than somebody else, why does she get all
- 39:03Speaker 1: your time and attention. I'm like, well, she had a
- 39:05Speaker 1: question that require a longer response. They noticed everything. They
- 39:10Speaker 1: do not want you to treat them differently. They do
- 39:13Speaker 1: not want any and let's be clear they they're right
- 39:16Speaker 1: about that. Producers should not treat cast members within favoritism.
- 39:21Speaker 1: Right now, there are cast members who need more attention, right,
- 39:27Speaker 1: you know, based on what they're going through. Right I'll
- 39:30Speaker 1: give you an example when Nini Leaks was going through
- 39:33Speaker 1: her divorce from Greg Leaks. This was during season four
- 39:37Speaker 1: and I was needing Leek's producer Kim Zoziak's producer and
- 39:40Speaker 1: Charas so hints me in therapy.
- 39:43Speaker 2: Okay, that is just that's one book.
- 39:46Speaker 3: That's one book.
- 39:47Speaker 1: That's my book, the Trifecta and me being responsible for
- 39:53Speaker 1: them as a producer.
- 39:54Speaker 2: Wow, Nini was going through divorce that season. Nini needed
- 39:59Speaker 2: me more. So I was there for her more.
- 40:03Speaker 1: I remember constantly having to, like after a scene, stay
- 40:08Speaker 1: with her at her house and like sit with her
- 40:12Speaker 1: in her bedroom and just talk because because she needed
- 40:16Speaker 1: had a tough day. Whereas Charae was fine, like Sharay
- 40:20Speaker 1: had a great season that season.
- 40:21Speaker 2: She was funny and she didn't need me as much.
- 40:24Speaker 1: But you have to understand that they're all watching that
- 40:27Speaker 1: and what the good thing with me is I've always
- 40:30Speaker 1: was able to explain, like, girl, she needs me more.
- 40:33Speaker 2: You know what she's going through. Okay, got it.
- 40:36Speaker 1: But if it's something so minuscule like I'm leaving because
- 40:40Speaker 1: she pretty much said I had a drink, that's the
- 40:43Speaker 1: ship that they don't like. And I appreciate this is me.
- 40:50Speaker 1: I appreciate bows. In my opinion, bo saw that Okay,
- 40:58Speaker 1: this can blow up.
- 40:59Speaker 2: In terms of a higher situation and favoritism.
- 41:02Speaker 1: Let me make this about is the retome because at
- 41:05Speaker 1: the end of the day, these girls don't see it
- 41:06Speaker 1: that way because they're filming. It's like camera crews, right,
- 41:10Speaker 1: they don't. They don't look at this as I'm in
- 41:12Speaker 1: this woman's home. Is too many production crew members around.
- 41:15Speaker 3: Also, Boz has worked in corporate America. Yes, so she
- 41:20Speaker 3: has managed people. So this is another element that's fascinating.
- 41:26Speaker 3: But if we just froze that scene for a minute,
- 41:29Speaker 3: just freeze, freeze all the players, okay, and then the
- 41:32Speaker 3: camera would pan out.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Uh huh?
- 41:34Speaker 3: Would I see a producer in the foyer or in
- 41:37Speaker 3: the driveway or on the front porch with one of
- 41:40Speaker 3: the cast members going you better get your ass back inside?
- 41:43Speaker 3: And would I also see a cast member or maybe
- 41:47Speaker 3: I'm just imagining this is what I would do outside,
- 41:50Speaker 3: maybe outside of the house at the window, gesticulating to
- 41:55Speaker 3: a producer like this shit is not working. I want
- 41:58Speaker 3: to go like, is that the stuff that's happening on
- 42:02Speaker 3: the periphery? Uh huh yeah, okay, so okay, yeah, that's
- 42:06Speaker 3: the show I want.
- 42:08Speaker 1: Well, that's the show I love. That's the real show.
- 42:10Speaker 1: So I'll tell you what I would have done. This
- 42:13Speaker 1: is what Carlos King, as a former showrunner, would have
- 42:16Speaker 1: done in this in this case, and this is a
- 42:19Speaker 1: true story, and I will tell you one story of
- 42:21Speaker 1: pod I did.
- 42:21Speaker 2: It to in a scene on on Jersey.
- 42:24Speaker 1: I'll tell your Jersey s Okay, that's a good example.
- 42:27Speaker 1: If I was a field showrunner on Beverly Hills Housewife
- 42:31Speaker 1: and I saw Sutton get up because she was mad
- 42:33Speaker 1: that dymade a comment about her drinking, right, which to
- 42:36Speaker 1: me isn't the the It's not the most hurtful negative
- 42:43Speaker 1: thing to say that. That is like explosive. That's my opinion.
- 42:47Speaker 1: But I'm not, of course diminishing how Sutton feels. Right,
- 42:52Speaker 1: this is just me watching the show. If I was
- 42:55Speaker 1: there and something it's like, I'm leaving, I Carlos would
- 43:00Speaker 1: have said, while something was hiding near the bathroom, did
- 43:03Speaker 1: you peep that, I, as a producer, would have more
- 43:06Speaker 1: than likely been in the bathroom and said, come here, Yeah,
- 43:09Speaker 1: what's wrong?
- 43:10Speaker 2: I would have said something. Is it that deep? If
- 43:15Speaker 2: it is, tell me.
- 43:17Speaker 1: I just think you're able to articulate yourself and explain
- 43:21Speaker 1: to her, because again, my audience sudden, they're not going.
- 43:25Speaker 2: To understand unless you explain it to us.
- 43:29Speaker 1: How about you do this, how about you say I'm leaving,
- 43:33Speaker 1: but before I leave, let me explain to you why
- 43:36Speaker 1: I'm upset and why I need to get out of here.
- 43:39Speaker 2: I would have done that, like explain it to her,
- 43:42Speaker 2: can you give me that?
- 43:43Speaker 1: And ten times out of ten she would have right,
- 43:46Speaker 1: because because again a reality star would say, I'm just
- 43:50Speaker 1: being honest.
- 43:50Speaker 2: Here, two things would have happened.
- 43:52Speaker 1: She would have said, Okay, that makes sense, and number two, okay, good,
- 43:59Speaker 1: I'll look good. I'll look good to the audience. I'm
- 44:02Speaker 1: just being honest.
- 44:03Speaker 2: Okay.
- 44:04Speaker 1: Now my example on Jersey, Okay.
- 44:09Speaker 2: That infamous scene.
- 44:12Speaker 1: Season two, the country club, Danielle, Jacqueline, Teresa.
- 44:17Speaker 2: Yep, this is when Danielle got chasing the country club.
- 44:21Speaker 1: They're at this plash fashion show. Right, it's the first
- 44:24Speaker 1: time in the season that Danielle staalb, Jacquelin Laarreta and
- 44:30Speaker 1: Teresa July's are the same room.
- 44:32Speaker 3: And by the way, those fashion shows, I kept thinking, now,
- 44:36Speaker 3: especially as I get older, the madness of the crew,
- 44:40Speaker 3: because it's so wild. And then you have Kim, who
- 44:44Speaker 3: is I don't know, she's sort of like a friend
- 44:45Speaker 3: of the show.
- 44:46Speaker 2: She's a friend.
- 44:47Speaker 3: He's in the middle of it, and you're trying to
- 44:49Speaker 3: get everyone's point of view. That just seemed like complete madness.
- 44:52Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 44:54Speaker 1: So again to your point, we're filming this for two
- 44:59Speaker 1: hours because of the madness you just described. The fascist
- 45:03Speaker 1: Show's over with and Teresa's like, did you like it?
- 45:08Speaker 1: I said, the fast show is fine? I said, would
- 45:11Speaker 1: you like to talk to Danielle? And she said, oh,
- 45:16Speaker 1: you know what, Carlos, I actually do.
- 45:18Speaker 2: Oh wow, Okay, I actually do. Because let me tell
- 45:22Speaker 2: you something. I'm just being honest here.
- 45:24Speaker 1: Teresa Judas is one of the best reality stars I
- 45:28Speaker 1: have ever worked with.
- 45:29Speaker 2: Ever.
- 45:30Speaker 3: Does she easy to work with?
- 45:33Speaker 1: Teresa Judais is one of the easiest women to work with.
- 45:37Speaker 2: She gets it and she lives for reality.
- 45:41Speaker 1: So she's because the thing Teresa new, Let's let's have
- 45:43Speaker 1: a real conversation, Kate. This is Teresa's second season, so obviously,
- 45:48Speaker 1: first season she flipped the table.
- 45:49Speaker 3: It could have changed since then, though she may have.
- 45:52Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna say, based from my experience, right first season,
- 45:58Speaker 1: she's the face of the show.
- 45:59Speaker 2: After finale, she flipped the table.
- 46:01Speaker 1: Yeah, Teresa obviously got Harold did and people loved her,
- 46:06Speaker 1: so she gets it.
- 46:07Speaker 2: Second season, She's like, let's keep this train moving, you
- 46:11Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like like.
- 46:12Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm on the magazines.
- 46:15Speaker 1: Yeah, Teresa understood Danielle's here and we're not going to
- 46:20Speaker 1: talk to each other.
- 46:22Speaker 2: And I said, Teresa, talk to her. Do you want to?
- 46:26Speaker 2: She said yes. I said, we'll talk to her.
- 46:29Speaker 1: Where is she? Carlos my producers say to me, she's
- 46:34Speaker 1: in the bathroom. I said, okay, there's there's a chair
- 46:39Speaker 1: by the bathroom. Talk to her where she comes out.
- 46:42Speaker 2: Okay.
- 46:44Speaker 1: So that's why when you watch an episode, you see
- 46:46Speaker 1: her Theresa casually sitting by the bathroom just waiting because
- 46:52Speaker 1: she's like, I want to talk to her.
- 46:53Speaker 2: I'm like, well, talk to her. Did and listen to
- 46:56Speaker 2: Danielle stops credit. This is why I missed the old
- 46:59Speaker 2: days of reality.
- 47:00Speaker 1: Yeah, because they all understood, like, we're not going to
- 47:03Speaker 1: be at this. It's the first we all got it.
- 47:06Speaker 1: That's why Danielle said. Daniell could have easily said I
- 47:08Speaker 1: don't want to talk about it. Danielle understood with Teresa
- 47:12Speaker 1: said hi, Danielle goes, you're talking to.
- 47:16Speaker 3: Me and yeah, yeah, but that feels like it's becoming
- 47:21Speaker 3: more and more impossible.
- 47:23Speaker 1: It's because social media. A lot of the reality starts today.
- 47:27Speaker 1: They play up to their fans. Yeah, and they don't want.
- 47:31Speaker 2: To be real. They want to be strategic.
- 47:35Speaker 1: It's strategic and that's why that's why Salt Lake City
- 47:40Speaker 1: is so fascinating to watch, because I think those women
- 47:43Speaker 1: are like we Those women get it. They just get it.
- 47:47Speaker 1: They get it. So I would have done that with suthing.
- 47:51Speaker 1: What did you think though about this whole conversation because
- 47:55Speaker 1: the deepness between Dewy and Kyle towards the end of
- 47:58Speaker 1: the episode, right Derey obviously doubled down on Kyle, saying
- 48:02Speaker 1: that she doesn't know anything that is going on in
- 48:04Speaker 1: her life right now. Kyle think its defensive and says,
- 48:09Speaker 1: you all know I'm separated, but I feel like we
- 48:13Speaker 1: need more, and I feel like Durit is like I
- 48:17Speaker 1: I want more, and yeah, it's just it's I love
- 48:23Speaker 1: Kyle's with my favorite housewife. I think Kyle's having a season,
- 48:27Speaker 1: a challenging season because the audience wants more and we're
- 48:33Speaker 1: not getting it, Kate, We're just not getting it.
- 48:35Speaker 3: I listen. I don't know her personally, but I can
- 48:38Speaker 3: definitely look at footage and make my own assumptions, but
- 48:42Speaker 3: I think a couple of things. I don't think she
- 48:44Speaker 3: and Durrey were ever very close. I think it was
- 48:46Speaker 3: like a show relationship. Yeah, And I feel like Derrey
- 48:51Speaker 3: has this suspended belief that at some point in time
- 48:54Speaker 3: they were very deep, close friends. But that speaks to
- 48:57Speaker 3: so much to me of the relationships that duri has
- 49:00Speaker 3: in her life, which are probably a lot of Durrete
- 49:03Speaker 3: talks and somebody else is sitting in the same room.
- 49:06Speaker 3: I think that Durret or excuse me, I think that
- 49:10Speaker 3: Kyle and PK were far closer friends because PK would
- 49:15Speaker 3: be at their house all the time, probably complained a
- 49:18Speaker 3: lot about Dreet and their marriage and their finances and
- 49:21Speaker 3: things going on. And I think Kyle knows too much,
- 49:24Speaker 3: and when you know too much, you can't unsee things
- 49:27Speaker 3: or unhear things. So I feel like those scenes where
- 49:31Speaker 3: it's like, are we friends, I don't think they were
- 49:34Speaker 3: ever particularly close, and I don't think there's any chance
- 49:37Speaker 3: for that now because Kyle knows too much, and I
- 49:40Speaker 3: think when she says throughout the season, I don't know
- 49:43Speaker 3: who you are anymore, I think it's because she's used
- 49:45Speaker 3: to Durete just sort of like shuffling her feet behind,
- 49:49Speaker 3: not really saying anything, and she's sort of like, oh,
- 49:53Speaker 3: now you're a TV star, Like, wait, what's going on.
- 49:56Speaker 3: I think that Kyle personally probably is in this very
- 50:00Speaker 3: weird vortex because she's been married all this time. I
- 50:04Speaker 3: would assume it's hard to get divorced when you've been
- 50:07Speaker 3: married that long and you have that much financial connection. Yes,
- 50:10Speaker 3: so she's probably trying to unravel that, the fact that
- 50:14Speaker 3: he's probably dating and dating younger women, which is a
- 50:17Speaker 3: whole head trip. Right. She's lost her best friend who
- 50:21Speaker 3: died by suicide, which will take an infinitement amount of
- 50:25Speaker 3: time to walk through grief. She's got daughters that are older,
- 50:29Speaker 3: and we've seen and seenes they're very connected to their father.
- 50:33Speaker 3: The blessing, by the way of Mauricio's show on Netflix
- 50:37Speaker 3: was to see his point of view of his life,
- 50:39Speaker 3: and he's super connected with the daughters. I don't think
- 50:42Speaker 3: I would have known that had I not seen that show,
- 50:44Speaker 3: because that's not really shown on Beverly Hills. So she's
- 50:48Speaker 3: also like struggling with now they know they all work
- 50:52Speaker 3: with him, they all want to spend time together. Where
- 50:55Speaker 3: am I in this family? I'm on the outs. I
- 50:59Speaker 3: think she's struggle because she has some sort of relationship
- 51:03Speaker 3: with Morgan. I don't know if it's either like a
- 51:06Speaker 3: friendship or romantic, but it seems to me that Morgan
- 51:09Speaker 3: does not really want her to discuss her at all
- 51:12Speaker 3: on the show, obviously, and she feels like, this is
- 51:16Speaker 3: a big part of my life and I'm not able
- 51:18Speaker 3: to discuss it, and I am I've got a responsibility
- 51:23Speaker 3: to the producers to be have a certain openness on
- 51:28Speaker 3: the show that I really can't do. Am I supposed
- 51:31Speaker 3: to do this show anymore? But she may need the
- 51:34Speaker 3: show for her own career or financial setup, et cetera.
- 51:38Speaker 3: I think these are all the moving parts that are
- 51:40Speaker 3: going on in the background and why we're frustrated because
- 51:45Speaker 3: I don't think she wants to be honest about a
- 51:47Speaker 3: lot of that. But the reality is if she were,
- 51:51Speaker 3: I think people would be more empathetic.
- 51:54Speaker 1: Listen, the reason why we about you loved or hated her, right,
- 52:00Speaker 1: Monica Garcia, the moment you saw the dynamic with her mom, Yeah, true,
- 52:05Speaker 1: and she was open about it. You were like, okay,
- 52:08Speaker 1: got it. Even when you think about someone. I want
- 52:12Speaker 1: to give one more example, Giselle Bryant. When you saw
- 52:17Speaker 1: when you see her relationship with her daughters, it gives
- 52:21Speaker 1: you a different point of view of her. You're like, Okay,
- 52:23Speaker 1: there is a softness there the way she loved her dad.
- 52:27Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
- 52:28Speaker 1: You see it that, Kyle, I agree with you. I
- 52:32Speaker 1: think Kyle wants to do it. I think when it
- 52:34Speaker 1: comes to Morgan, I agree with you too. I think
- 52:37Speaker 1: Morgan said to her, this is too much for me. Yeah,
- 52:39Speaker 1: and respectfully, Kyle's like, you know, sign up to be
- 52:42Speaker 1: on the show.
- 52:42Speaker 2: Got it.
- 52:43Speaker 1: I think Kyle and Mauricio, because I watched Buying Beverly
- 52:46Speaker 1: Hills two on Netflix, I think they both set each
- 52:49Speaker 1: other down and said, this is we have to be
- 52:52Speaker 1: on the same page.
- 52:53Speaker 2: What we're going to tell the audience. Yeah, and they're
- 52:55Speaker 2: not going to give us any more than that.
- 52:57Speaker 1: Like ever, and I think Yle knows that this show
- 53:02Speaker 1: has been her second win in her forties when the
- 53:05Speaker 1: show FIRS happened, and she is arguably the face of
- 53:08Speaker 1: Billy Hills and she's NBC's darling right, she does Peacock Movies, Halloween.
- 53:14Speaker 1: I think in Cole's defense, she wants to, but there's
- 53:18Speaker 1: two people in her life that she made a commitment
- 53:20Speaker 1: to and unfortunately she's unable.
- 53:22Speaker 2: To do it.
- 53:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:24Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 53:26Speaker 1: So with that being said, Kate, at the end of
- 53:30Speaker 1: this episode, we see the comic attraction of Mauricio kissing
- 53:35Speaker 1: another woman.
- 53:36Speaker 2: Yeah, where do you think? Where do you think? Excuse me?
- 53:39Speaker 2: Things are going to end up from here now for
- 53:41Speaker 2: the rest of the season.
- 53:42Speaker 3: I don't know. Well, first of all, I think that
- 53:44Speaker 3: there is a part of Kyle that really wishes she
- 53:47Speaker 3: still were with Mauricio because she loves the family unit
- 53:50Speaker 3: and she feels like she's let I think she's a
- 53:54Speaker 3: people pleaser. I think she's even admitted to it where
- 53:57Speaker 3: she feels guilty, and that's the burden of a reality star.
- 54:00Speaker 3: I mean, Craig and Page probably feel this too, like
- 54:03Speaker 3: where people see you as this couple and she feels
- 54:05Speaker 3: like she's let people down in addition to her own family.
- 54:11Speaker 3: But I think there's too much damage there, and when
- 54:13Speaker 3: you're married that long and your finances are co mingled,
- 54:16Speaker 3: I think she's stuck in limbo. And I think if
- 54:20Speaker 3: she were more honest about that, people would really get
- 54:23Speaker 3: that like I'm stuck. I don't know what to do.
- 54:26Speaker 3: So I feel like she's sort of on her own island.
- 54:28Speaker 3: So I can't expect, I think, the rest of the
- 54:31Speaker 3: episodes to see any moment of like real and deep
- 54:35Speaker 3: connection because I think she's just so closed off from
- 54:39Speaker 3: the world. Yeah, bos, I just think it's hard for
- 54:44Speaker 3: me to understand how she has the capacity to be
- 54:48Speaker 3: so patient with dreycause I feel like Git lives on
- 54:53Speaker 3: her own planet right and bos seems so like down
- 54:57Speaker 3: to earth and grounded and has so much more life
- 55:01Speaker 3: perspective because she worked in corporate America too. That I'm
- 55:05Speaker 3: just waiting for the moment where Boz is like, I
- 55:07Speaker 3: can't listen to this anymore. I cannot listen to this anymore.
- 55:12Speaker 3: I would love to hear a conversation between Garcel and
- 55:15Speaker 3: Sutton about what happened in Augusta and that means how
- 55:21Speaker 3: that made Garcel feel like I really would love that,
- 55:27Speaker 3: And then Erica, I feel like I do like the
- 55:32Speaker 3: moments where she seems to offer some like some like
- 55:36Speaker 3: tell it like it is moments, but I still want
- 55:39Speaker 3: to know what's going on in her life, Like I
- 55:41Speaker 3: feel like, yeah, like what's happening with the lawsuits, Like,
- 55:44Speaker 3: how do you feel do you feel incredible pressure? Do
- 55:47Speaker 3: you feel like you've lost connection with people because of it?
- 55:51Speaker 2: Like?
- 55:52Speaker 3: I think I would like to see more deeper stuff,
- 55:53Speaker 3: but I have to say my favorite thing still is
- 55:55Speaker 3: when we get to meet people's parents, because I feel
- 55:58Speaker 3: like Origin tell me so much about somebody. The last
- 56:03Speaker 3: part of the Origin story with Sutton is that I
- 56:06Speaker 3: found it hilarious how much she complained about her mother
- 56:09Speaker 3: when there are so many characteristics that are exactly the same.
- 56:12Speaker 3: In many ways, she's like a watered down version of
- 56:14Speaker 3: her mother. She's she's got zero filter. She can say
- 56:19Speaker 3: things that are very hurtful, Like there's so many things
- 56:22Speaker 3: where I'm like, girl, it's you. It just reminded me
- 56:26Speaker 3: of the Heather du Bro episode when we met her mom. Yeah, yes,
- 56:31Speaker 3: wonder Heather feels like this all the time. And like
- 56:36Speaker 3: Heather and Sutton said something similar, which I feel like
- 56:39Speaker 3: is so common for a lot of people. Probably with
- 56:42Speaker 3: your parents too, where you complained about your parent and
- 56:46Speaker 3: then it's like, okay, but that's what I was raised with.
- 56:49Speaker 3: And it's very hard to untangle things that you saw
- 56:52Speaker 3: as a child. And we tend to like duplicate things.
- 56:55Speaker 3: We'll water down versions of her parents.
- 57:00Speaker 1: Kay, you always cook baby. Let the world know they

- 58:23Speaker 3: And we'll just tell you two things that you have
- 58:25Speaker 3: to listen to it. Well, Number one, you have to
- 58:27Speaker 3: watch a true crime doc series this week. It's called
- 58:29Speaker 3: Fox Hollow Murders on Hulu. It's four parts. It's about
- 58:33Speaker 3: a serial killer you've never heard about. He lived in
- 58:36Speaker 3: Indianapolis and a lot of gay men disappeared in the
- 58:39Speaker 3: nineties in Indianapolis because he was killing them. He had
- 58:43Speaker 3: a big property and his wife would go away for
- 58:45Speaker 3: the weekend. He would go to a gay bar and
- 58:47Speaker 3: bring them back to his home. Years later, they would
- 58:51Speaker 3: find bones all over the property. So what's crazy about
- 58:55Speaker 3: this series is now in present day, they have new
- 58:59Speaker 3: owners of this property and you get to go with
- 59:02Speaker 3: them to the property and the place is haunted. Crazy
- 59:05Speaker 3: stuff happens there. It's like almost like Amity Bill Harp.
- 59:08Speaker 3: So alcome Fox Hollow Murders. And then Saturday, my episode,
- 59:12Speaker 3: I have a woman who was her dad was a
- 59:14Speaker 3: guru Bookers.
