- 1:44So before we get into the episode, there was some news in the vander
- 1:49Pump universe a little bit. Oh okay, it's this rumor that La La
- 1:55might be defecting from vander Pump Rules and heading on over to the Valley.
- 2:00Oh baby, what do you think about that? I don't like that.
- 2:02I don't want to see Lala on two Bravo shows, especially not the Valley.
- 2:07What if it's only on the Valley and no longer on VPR, then
- 2:10maybe, But I'm like, ugh, I don't know. She's annoying me.
- 2:15She annoyed me this whole season. She annoyed me in this last episode.
- 2:19We'll get to it, but I'm just like, I'm over her.
- 2:21I'm over her as well, and it just comes off feeling very entitled,
- 2:24like you know, it's not working for you at VPR anymore. So let
- 2:28me just go over to this trash fire and make it worse over there,
- 2:31Like, we don't need any of that. What we actually need from Lala
- 2:35is some growth. Yeah, it's some personal development, it's some therapy.
- 2:38Yeah, she's an angry person and we don't know why. Well, she's
- 2:42fucking crazy. And she says she's growing, she says she's in her soft
- 2:46era, but I don't see it only hard edges. Yeah, what I'm
- 2:50picking up from her. Now, let me ask you. At the end
- 2:53of the Vanderpump episode, it kind of felt like not a season finale,
- 2:59but a series finale that was actually gonna be my hot take today. Oh
- 3:02it was? Was that? Well, why don't you talk about it?
- 3:05Yeah? No, I literally thought it feels like a series finale, Like
- 3:08they're showing flashbacks to the beginning of the show and earlier seasons, and I'm
- 3:13like, what, honestly good? Because yeah, it seems like we don't
- 3:19got nothing else to offer beside Scandabal and his stupid redemption arc. But like,
- 3:24what else are you gonna do? I don't know, platform Sheena Moore
- 3:29because they seem to really like doing that. Then that takes me to my
- 3:32take, So my take is that I feel like a dumb dumb I went
- 3:37into this season really thinking Ariana was gonna look like a mean girl. Yeah,
- 3:42I was really buying what Lala and I think Shina was saying, like,
- 3:46Oh, by the end of the season, you're gonna see she's like
- 3:49got a big fucking ego, she's a problem, and so I thought that
- 3:53we were gonna get even a little bit of that. But honestly, Ariana
- 3:57has held herself with such compos and dignity yep, and righteousness. Like when
- 4:02she's talking to the producer tonight at Kyle Chan's whatever whatever, I'm just like,
- 4:06oh my god, talk I I I like Ariana. Coming into the
- 4:14season, I didn't really like Ariana that much. Yeah you didn't. But
- 4:17I like Ariana a lot more than I like Lala and Shina me too.
- 4:21The only thing for me with her is that she did kind of lie in
- 4:25this episode when she's like I never said I wouldn't be friends with anybody whose
- 4:29friends was said about, I'm like, you did, yeah a lot,
- 4:32but that's okay. I'll give you a pass. But I liked her this
- 4:35episode. I'm like, work, bitch, Yes, she stood on business
- 4:40yes, exactly what she's been saying this entire time. It's not like she's
- 4:44flip flopping like Shina does in like virtually every episode. When she's talking to
- 4:48Ariana, she's team Ariana. When she's talking to Tom, she's team Tom.
- 4:51And I'm sick of her and her apples too, and her good as
- 4:56gold bullshit. And it was cringing so deeply when she was performing with the
- 5:00twenty sevens. I'm like, you are almost forty years old, yes,
- 5:03Like the landscape changes when you're in your forties and then you barrel like a
- 5:09locomotive into your fifties, and like, is this all you're giving? Is
- 5:13this narcissistic self absorption? Because ugh, I can't stick? And did you
- 5:19see her outfit too, She's like thinking she looks so cute and that weird
- 5:23little rocks out cool to oh my god, brocks out. I know the
- 5:27all gold suit have to be in the center of everybody's attention, I allow
- 5:32to me. The other thing that I wanted to say in my major takeaway
- 5:36is that despite like how I feel about Lalla and Sheena and Ariana, I
- 5:41do have to agree with some of the sentiments which are basically, Ariana,
- 5:46what are you gonna do? Though, like you are part of an ensemble
- 5:48cast, you have every right to be pissed off. You have every right
- 5:54to have boundaries and to maintain them. Yeah, but at the end of
- 5:58the day, you're gonna have to put yourself out there in an authentic way
- 6:02with this cast. Unless they change the castah, unless they stop the show.
- 6:06You're gonna have to come back and give something authentic and have conversations that
- 6:11you might not want to have otherwise, what are we doing here? It's
- 6:14like the Ladies on Potomac. It's like Giselle, who does not want to
- 6:17film with Candice, Well, that's untenable. It's like on Beverly Hills when
- 6:20they're icing out one of the housewives. It's like, this is your job,
- 6:25show up and do your fucking job, I guess. And so that
- 6:28came from Lalla a little bit, like we heard that throughout the season,
- 6:30and she especially said that tonight. And I'm not saying I agree, but
- 6:35there's a kernel of that in terms of like the business, in terms of
- 6:40the show that is very practical, and so Ariana is gonna have to make
- 6:44some decisions. Do you want to come back to this shit show, right
- 6:46and just not talk to people. That's not compelling television to me, Like,
- 6:50we got a whole season of that. We can understand it, But
- 6:54what's next? Right? I mean, I guess that's a fair point in
- 6:57terms of like what else are you going to do on the show? Else
- 7:00can you provide? But like, in my opinion, I'm like, it's
- 7:02a problem with Bravo. It's a problem with Bravo's contracts and being like,
- 7:05yeah, you have to be around this abusive narcissist whether you like it or
- 7:11not, and you have to be able to deal with these uncomfortable conversations with
- 7:15him and be triggered by him constantly because it makes good television, you know
- 7:18what I'm saying, Like, Ariana is a human. If we're gonna sit
- 7:21there and humanize Sandabal, we need to humanize her too. And like you
- 7:25said, she's allowed to have boundaries and everything. But I guess I see
- 7:29your point, Like she how is it sustainable right into like subsequent seasons,
- 7:33Like how do we continue to do this? Like Ariana, what else though,
- 7:36are you bringing to the table besides something about her? And this is
- 7:40something that Laala has said on repeat, and I hate to actually agree with
- 7:44her on anything, but she's like and she said it in the after show.
- 7:46I think she said something like, you know, Ariana brings fucking nothing.
- 7:49She's a non motherfucking factor. She doesn't have storylines. She hides behind
- 7:54Tom. Tom is the one who shows up to everything. Yeah. I
- 7:57don't really agree with that, because I think Arianna does bring something to the
- 8:01show, but like what's next? Yeah, and like, what else do
- 8:05you have to offer besides your upsetnessts? No? For real, and like
- 8:09the whole purpose of the show is like to be crazy and to be drunk
- 8:13and like to cause drama and be self centered. So like Arianna, it
- 8:16seems like it's growing out of it and just being like I'm over it,
- 8:20Like fuck all of y'all. I'm here getting my back blown out by Dan,
- 8:24like peace out. And she's got all these fucking brand deals, Like
- 8:26does she even need the paycheck from Bravo? Well, money runs out,
- 8:31you know, tame runs out. The shine that's currently on her may or
- 8:35may not run out. I think Founder Pump's a great vehicle to keep some
- 8:37of that shine on her, and if she continues to conduct herself with dignity.
- 8:43I think she only opens up the opportunity to get more Yeah brand deals,
- 8:46So I could see why she'd want to come back. But like,
- 8:48now you're gonna have to figure out who you're gonna be and who you're gonna
- 8:52let us see. Right, that's a good point. So those are my
- 8:56thoughts. Wow about a good done this season and about this episode. So
- 9:01let's get into it, babe. All right, Well, like we have
- 9:03a couple things going on, we have before Kyle Chan's event and Kyle Chans
- 9:09event. Okay, I don't remember anything before kr I mean pretty much there
- 9:13was nothing besides like Laala saying that Dan's a fucking square and I'm like,
- 9:18girl, you are so jealous, you are so bitter, so bitter.
- 9:22It's giving miss Andre, yeah a little bit. But like he's such a
- 9:26decent man, he's so great. He's clearly on this trip to San Francisco
- 9:31purely to support Arianna in the ways that she wants him to show up for
- 9:35her. Leg Yep, he's doing everything right. And the only thing you
- 9:39can do is covetch about how Ariana said like he will throw hands if you
- 9:43come at me. Yeah, and she calls that being a square. Now
- 9:46that's called being like a partner. Yeah, somebody who's supporting you. I'm
- 9:50just so jealous. She's so jealous in every way. After her fucking relationship
- 9:54with toad Man ends, she ends up single. She doesn't get a hot
- 9:56ass man who's flirting with her in a meat starts banging her back out like
- 10:01Ariana, and then she doesn't get all these brand deals and dsw and all
- 10:05this shit. So yeah, she's fucking bitter and jealous and it's kind of
- 10:09cringe. Well, doesn't Shena address this a little bit In the after show.
- 10:13She's talking about how there's been a few people on the cast who have
- 10:16gone through pretty bad breakups and have had bad betrayals, bad things happen to
- 10:20them, but the world didn't stand behind them like they did for Ariana.
- 10:26And she's like, you know, and so of course I'm happy for her,
- 10:28but at the same time, like, why didn't I get any of
- 10:31that? And you've got cast members who are saying, like, why didn't
- 10:35the audience show up for me that way? And it it's interesting. I
- 10:37think it's because we've all gotten older. Yeah, we've all got our own
- 10:41families now and our own marriages now, and so it hits a little different
- 10:45versus when we're in our twenties and we're just drunk all the time, right,
- 10:48And I mean, arian and Tom had a nine year relationship and that's
- 10:52serious, and they got a fucking house together, Like that's a big fucking
- 10:54deal for him to just be fucking her best friend, raw dogging her best
- 10:58friend for nine months or whatever. So I don't know, I'm just I
- 11:03think these women are so fucking jealous that it didn't happen for them. I'm
- 11:05like, that's embarrassing for you guys, yes, honestly. And then we
- 11:09have the whole like lunch date in Chinatown, right, yeah, and Sandoval's
- 11:15not there, but Dan, Arianna, James, Ali, all of them
- 11:18are there, okay, And Laala is interrogating the fuck out of Dan.
- 11:22Why is she doing this for production? Is she doing this because she's a
- 11:28jealous hoe is she doing this because she's genuinely curious? And this is how
- 11:33she fact finds. Either way, it's very inappropriate to do that to the
- 11:37guy at the table who's new to the group, and she feels it's just
- 11:39the thing with Laala, she feels so fucking entitled to do whatever she wants
- 11:45whenever she wants to, and you can't call her out, but she stands
- 11:48ready always to call everybody else out. So hypocritical, it's super hippus.
- 11:52Would she like that if she brought a dude? She wouldn't let anybody do
- 11:54that to Randall? Really no, And she wouldn't let anybody question their relationship
- 12:00all the clip back to Katie. Yeah, sitting down outside of sir,
- 12:03and Katie's like, well, we're just supposed to pretend you're not dating a
- 12:05married man. She lies about it. Yeah, No, she would not
- 12:09brook any questioning, any criticism of Randall for season after season after season.
- 12:16So it's like really rich, Yeah, to have you sitting down in non
- 12:20King and just drilling this guy who's nothing but a good person, Like by
- 12:24all appearances, it's probably because she's attracted to him, and she's fucking jealous,
- 12:28because Arianna's got this hot ass man who's totally into her and he's like
- 12:33so awesome, Like he's like talking about why he loves her, why he
- 12:35well, not loves her, but like why he's attracted to her and everything,
- 12:39and she's so empathetic and so graceful, and you know, she talks
- 12:43about how she was attracted to him and like they're just like always holding hands
- 12:46and always cuddling. I'm like, I like them. Yeah, why wouldn't
- 12:48you. They seem great, they seem well adjusted, they seem calm,
- 12:52they seem into each other. I'm nothing but happy for them. And I
- 12:54don't know why the group is like judging Ariana for moving on from Sandoval like
- 13:00eight days after, Like they're saying, oh, she banged him eight days
- 13:03after. The whole skinny didn't though exactly. So I'm like, why why
- 13:07are you coming for Ariana when you're not coming from for Sandoval who fucked her
- 13:11best friend for over a year and some of you knew about it and just
- 13:16kept it a secret, like fuck y'all right honestly, yes, So yeah,
- 13:20that was pretty much it with that. Well, another thing happened,
- 13:22which is when Tom said something about Tom Sandival. Schwartz said about Tom Sandoval,
- 13:28like he's not a trash person. He's a person who did a trash
- 13:33thing. And then Ariana across the table said no, we're not talking about
- 13:35that in my presence. And if you don't like that you can go now
- 13:39that butted up to me, that butted up against decorum, Like Arianna,
- 13:48you can go if you're uncomfortable, and if this is offending your boundary about
- 13:52talking about Sandoval in a group setting, you can get your your ass up
- 13:56and you can go. But to tell somebody with such authority, don't speak
- 14:01like this in front of me and you can go, I'm like, who
- 14:03the fuck do you think you are? And nobody says a word. No,
- 14:07not Laala with her big fucking mound Schwartz knows better than to say anything,
- 14:13but like nobody challenged it at all, which kind of goes toward some
- 14:16of what Lala's saying, either in the After Show or in this episode,
- 14:22where she's like, no, it was in the after Show, like nobody's
- 14:24saying anything to her. Like she's giving all of these edicts, all of
- 14:28these directions, telling everybody how to act and feel, and we're just letting
- 14:31her. She's like, get the fuck out of here with that. And
- 14:35in this particular moment in this scene, I could see that, now,
- 14:41come at me, bro I know people are standing hard for Ariana, but
- 14:43I'm just trying to be fair like that wasn't very nice. Yeah, it's
- 14:50a little hard, And I know she's coming from the place of like being
- 14:52triggered that anybody could think that Sandoval is a good person in any light.
- 14:56And I understand that because she's been like that Sheena all season and La La
- 15:01all season. I get it, but like, maybe slow your role and
- 15:05just be like Schwartz, I don't want to hear about that, please,
- 15:07right, let's not talk about how he's a good person because he hurt me,
- 15:09Thank you very much, Like you can be a little bit nicer about
- 15:13it. But Katie also does kind of defend her too and is like,
- 15:16yeah, he's a piece of shit, so maybe shut the fuck up,
- 15:20Schwartz. And Schwartz is dumb for even bringing it up. He knew what
- 15:22he was doing. Well, Katie starts arguing with Shena, right, Yeah,
- 15:26Sheena is starting to talk about I don't know the sound guy every time
- 15:30she talks. First of all, I hate how she talks to me too,
- 15:33so annoying. Her affect is annoying. I start to lose consciousness and
- 15:37go into another astral realm. Yeah, but she's talking about Tom, and
- 15:41Katie says something like, when are we gonna stop talking about this asshole all
- 15:46the time and defending this asshole all the time, Like I don't want to
- 15:48talk about this anymore, right, which is a better way to approach it
- 15:54than what Arianna did. Totally, and then Brock has to chime in,
- 15:58fucking it all triggered. Fucking hate him. He's such a piece of shit,
- 16:03and he's like, starts going after Katie because she's saying that, and
- 16:06he's like, well, but you don't understand she has had this best friend
- 16:08relationship with Senavl for fifteen years. Why can't you go see your perspective,
- 16:12Like, oh my god, nobody cares what your opinion is. Brock,
- 16:17Well, he cares what his opinion is. And he's so annoying. He's
- 16:21in every single group scene. Why is he here? Why is he on
- 16:23my television on the wrong side of history every single time and presuming to tell
- 16:29the women how to feel about this kind of a betrayal and how to feel
- 16:33in their hearts about it, Like, shut the fuck up, stop man
- 16:36explaining to me what it feels like to be betrayed on this level. You
- 16:38ask whole go take care of your kids, go back to Australia, get
- 16:42off my television. Pray Broke. He's such a fucking loser. I'm so
- 16:48tired of hearing it. And I'm so tired of this Brock and Sheena storyline
- 16:52about Santaval so boring. I don't fucking started with Shana yep, and it
- 16:56ended with Sheena. I littlebody asked for this much. No, not at
- 17:00all. And I don't care that you guys were friends with him for so
- 17:03long and he gave you money and that's why your suging is dick so much.
- 17:07Fuck y'all both. But maybe, as we have discussed before, maybe
- 17:12Lala and Sheena can sense that Ariana's out the door, like Ariana is already
- 17:18thinking like I don't think I can do this anymore. I don't know if
- 17:21I have to do it anymore. And so they're trying to take an active
- 17:23position with the person who's going to stay, which is Tom Sandoval, which
- 17:27means if that's the case, that they're motivated purely by greed, yeah,
- 17:32which would makes sense. And advancing themselves yeah, makes sense for a bunch
- 17:34of vapid, self centered assholes. So and then I wrote down this note
- 17:40because while I was watching this episode last night. I pay for the Peacock
- 17:44with ads because I am cheap and I don't watch a lot of shows on
- 17:47their business expense. We're professional rack clones. This is a professional dumpster.
- 17:52It's four ninety. I never watch anything on Peacock really unless it's for the
- 17:56show, and I don't care because I can get up and like do my
- 17:57stuff during the ads. Anyway, after this whole scene with like the lunch
- 18:03and everything, the first ad that came up was an ad for Ariana's DSW
- 18:07campaign, and I was like, yeah, yeah, so good because it
- 18:11was right after like Lala and she and I are talking about her, and
- 18:14I'm like, chef's kiss. So good. And then we have Schwartz going
- 18:18over to Joe's room and the only reason why this is important is because he's
- 18:22such an asshole and he's talking about how she basically looks like a child who
- 18:27got into her mom's makeup anytime she wears makeup, like a party clown.
- 18:30And I'm like, fuck, this guy. Does he make comments like this
- 18:33about Katie like onn ironically? Yes, I mean, throughout the years he's
- 18:37put her down a lot for a variety of things. But I mean,
- 18:41notwithstanding that Schwartz is an absolute asshole. Yeah, I mean, Joe is
- 18:48insufferable. I mean, I know there's a reason people are calling you a
- 18:52meth head, and yeah, and I don't agree with that, but like
- 18:55you act weird, you act wild out in these streets, Like calm down
- 18:57just a little bit. Not everything was a joke a gag, right,
- 19:00Not everything is funny. She's just very annoying to me. Another one like
- 19:04why are you in this show? Why are you peripheral to this cast in
- 19:08the show? Get off my television. May I never see you again?
- 19:12You know, I literally don't care about you and Swartzish storyline either, unless
- 19:17you guys are fucking and actually dating. He doesn't want you, honey,
- 19:19You sad out here. Although he was checking her out in that room.
- 19:22I caught him several times he was looking at her ass He's gross, he's
- 19:26disgusting. And then we have Schwartz also going over to Sandoval's room to download
- 19:30him about the whole lunch with Dan and all this stuff, and Sandoval's like,
- 19:34yeah, I want to talk to Ariana, and Schwartz is like,
- 19:37that's not a good idea, not really feeling that for you, Saneval's like,
- 19:41yeah, but I just like want her to know that, you know,
- 19:44even if it's ten years down the line, I'm always gonna be there
- 19:47for her. I'm alwaysrmative. We're so theatrical, so dramatic and fair.
- 19:52What a fucking narcissist? Okay, show of hands. Does anybody believe that
- 19:57Tom Sandoval is legitimately remorseful, not because he looks bad to the world,
- 20:03but like legitimately remorseful to Ariana for the things that he has done, because
- 20:08I don't think so. No, I don't see it at all with his
- 20:11one glister and tear or his vising eyes. Yep, I believe Arianna in
- 20:17the end of this episode when she talks about how he never says anything to
- 20:21her off camera, he only tries to talk to her in front of the
- 20:23camera, in front of the audience to show, oh, look at me,
- 20:26I'm such a stand up guy. He's a piece of shit, honestly.
- 20:30And then we have Kyle Chan's event, okay, and this is where
- 20:34everything kind of goes down. First of all, Marianna and Dan looked foy.
- 20:40They did. They looked hot, hot as hell. They looked way
- 20:42better than Sheena, sorry forty. I thought he was younger than her.
- 20:47I think she's thirty seven, thirty eight something like that. He looks good,
- 20:51he looks great. You know, I like a pan Asian American.
- 20:55I do my results. Yeah, yeah, I do like it. I
- 20:59just think he's handsome. But you know what, he's mature. Yeah,
- 21:02he knows how to keep to himself. He knows to have that steady,
- 21:06stoic energy like that you don't want to fuck with because you will find out.
- 21:10But on the other hand, he's just very gracious, just a nice
- 21:12person, can assimilate into the group very nicely. I wonder if we're going
- 21:17to see him next season. Yeah, Marianna's going to be on it.
- 21:19If he's going to even want to do this, I'd like to see more
- 21:22me too. I really like him. I think he's a pretty cool dude,
- 21:25and he gives her like a calm energy. I think he helps kind
- 21:29of ground her a little bit, because otherwise she's a little bit crazy.
- 21:30But they looked great. Sina also has like a weird segment where she's like
- 21:36making it about her, making this whole thing about her, and she even
- 21:38says that in the interstitial, so I'm like, is this current day?
- 21:44Are those recorded current day and she's seeing what people are saying. Yeah,
- 21:47I don't know about current day. It's probably recorded around the time of the
- 21:51reunion, which was filmed what a month, a month and a half ago,
- 21:53two months ago, So by then, because this started in January,
- 21:57she was already getting the feedback. And I think it was Laala who says
- 22:02in the after show that SA stays connected to her social media. Her mom
- 22:06sends her negative feedback on social media, her PR person sends her feedback,
- 22:11negative feedback on social media. So she's really plugged into what everybody is saying.
- 22:17So by the time we're getting her talking head saying, well, but
- 22:19I guess I'm making it all about me. Yeah, the AI is becoming
- 22:22self aware, just becoming self aware. I'm just like, why would you
- 22:26say something like that if you think that it's a joke, or like,
- 22:30if you think that it's baseless, Like, we don't know what we're fucking
- 22:33talking about. This whole entire season has been all about fucking Sheena Marie and
- 22:37her stupid fucking band and all of her music and Nanny, her relation with
- 22:45Tom, how it hurt her I'm like, how did it hurt you?
- 22:48You only benefited from what Tom did. Seriously, what did it cost you?
- 22:53I don't trust anybody anymore. When Brox sayes Lala, I don't know
- 22:59if they're fun, I'm like, Okay, that's a problem. Go get
- 23:03a therapist. I guess she tried to go the doctor. Couldn't take the
- 23:06soul off, but like keep trying. I mean, seriously, she's I
- 23:10know, there's different kinds of narcissists, Like there's very malignant, confident narcissist,
- 23:15and then you have those narcissists narcissists who need to make it all about
- 23:19themselves because they're so insecure inside. Yeah, whatever that's called. That's what
- 23:25she is, like a very vulnerable inwardly, very very non confident, confident
- 23:30person. And that's why it's so insufferable anytime she's on the show, because
- 23:33it's like, oh my god, it's a black hole of need, so
- 23:37much need and so cringey because I'm like, grow up already, forty and
- 23:41that's okay forty, Like listen, I'm I'm way older than that. Like
- 23:45go ahead, live your life, feel good about yourself. But like the
- 23:48songs that you're singing singing are like teen songs. No, seriously, you're
- 23:52not a teen. It was so cringe. When we get there, we'll
- 23:55get there, we will get there. I stopped it though, I WhatsApp
- 23:57to you? I like, I literally the secondhand cringe embarrassment is making me
- 24:03uncomfortable. I have to walk around my home. I've got to do laps
- 24:07because this is so terrible. I couldn't even watch it, Like I just
- 24:10listened to it and I'm like, I can't and like the montage of everybody,
- 24:14We'll get to it, okay, it's so cringey. Then we also
- 24:15have James and Ali. They were kind of cute though him prefacing is love
- 24:19in the parking lot. That was sweet, okay, fine, and then
- 24:22Sandobal sand of all goes up to Brock and he's like, I just want
- 24:26to thank you man for like always having my bag and like I really appreciate
- 24:30you, and then gives them a bro hug and then Brock like proceeds to
- 24:33lecture him like he's been doing all season because apparently he's the arbiter of morality,
- 24:40and I'm like, shot the fuck up. He's like, yeah,
- 24:41but you know you gotta keep doing what you can do to make amends to
- 24:45people, like shut up Rock. Seriously, he's never gonna do it.
- 24:48You know he's never gonna do it, and I don't want to hear it.
- 24:52Why would anybody want to take advice from fucking brock right, like talk
- 24:55to your kids. You literally hit women. I'm sorry, but go away
- 24:59a person. I'm sad with your male rage get fucked. And then we
- 25:03have everybody kind of sitting down in their little VIP section. And this is
- 25:07where Sandval goes up to Dan and says, Hey, I just wanted to
- 25:11say I'm Sandval or Tom and I'm really happy for you guys. I wish
- 25:15you guys the best. I just want to say nice to meet you.
- 25:18And it leaves, which I thought Dan handled pretty well, very much so.
- 25:22And also Ariana didn't do anything either. She was just on her phone,
- 25:26didn't say anything to him, didn't escalate at all. She literally just
- 25:30disconnected, which is totally fine. But some people online are actually coming for
- 25:34Ariana after this episode. Why, Like we've already had a few people dms
- 25:37on Instagram. Be Like, I thought Ariana was being a big old bitch
- 25:41and I don't know, I mean, what is she supposed to do look
- 25:42up and talk to Tom Sandival No, I know, I'm like, what
- 25:45do you want her to do? But some people really didn't like Ariana this
- 25:49season, so but I thought it was very performative that he went to go
- 25:53up and say hi to Dan. I thought that was really gross and I
- 25:56had been intending to do it the entire time. And this is just another
- 26:00like puzzle piece in his redemption arc. He wants to make himself look like
- 26:03the bigger man, the hero when somebody's popping off in the party, Like
- 26:07he wants himself to project that. Yeah, that's why he had to do
- 26:11that. And I think Ariana knows that he's doing it for camera time.
- 26:14He's doing that for audience approval, and that's why she's paying him. Dust
- 26:18I'm not even going to look at you. Oh yeah. And Ariana inner
- 26:21interstitial even says like I'm not going to be a cog in the Tom sand
- 26:25of Aal redemption arc machine, Like she's calling out the producers for this stupid
- 26:30fucking narrative that you've had all season to try and get us to like stand
- 26:33of all right, which is insane to me. And people are making memes
- 26:37about that on Instagram, already saying they fucked up, Like this season is
- 26:41so good. That's why I think they're putting it on pause because I think
- 26:45the production company needs to regroup figure out what the fuck are they doing,
- 26:48because they're definitely sending mixed signals with the various montages Ariana, but also about
- 26:55Tom, like the hot mic at the end of this episode. It's like
- 26:57the editors have so much power and influence about how we ultimately feel about the
- 27:03shows and the caste, So what do you want us to feel? I'm
- 27:06a little bit confused. Yeah, it's very weird. And like when Laala
- 27:10goes on her rant about how this show is very real and it's very honest,
- 27:15I couldn't. I think, what are you talking about? This season
- 27:18felt so fucking produced, Like all of you guys are fucking lying. What
- 27:22did Lala show of her life? Exactly? I mean, she showed us,
- 27:25I guess, her sperm journey. She showed us that she's got an
- 27:29apartment and her mom is over. But like, literally, you're jabbing at
- 27:32Ariana for bringing nothing, but like you brought nothing except to instigate and to
- 27:37be a producer. Plant that's all you brought and it's boring. Af.
- 27:41The reason we watched this is because people aren't aware of themselves as reality stars
- 27:45and get themselves into actual situations, have actual conversations and fights, and that's
- 27:51interesting. Yeah, but this is not interesting. This is predictable. Laala,
- 27:53You're fucking predictable. Yep, You're not as smart as you think you
- 27:56are. You're not a fucking thug either, Lady. I know you're gonna
- 28:00come up and meet the wrong one for shocked, shocked that she hasn't yet,
- 28:04I know Lauren from Utah Yo. Yeah. And then after Sandoval greats
- 28:11Dan, then we have some rando who's like trying to get into the VIP
- 28:15section and then he is like drinking everybody's drinks and then he starts fighting the
- 28:18security guards and throwing glass and that was pretty entertaining. And then Sandoval of
- 28:23course has to interject himself into the situation to act like he's the fucking hero
- 28:29when the security guard's already taken care of it. Bro right. Well,
- 28:33there have been some pictures floating around the internet of that guy and Tom and
- 28:41that guy and Billy Lee and that guy and some of Tom's other crew like,
- 28:48the theory is that that was staged, and they staged it so that
- 28:52Tom could Russian and be the hero and further this redemption art stop. No,
- 28:57like, that's Tom's friend and they planned it so that that would happen.
- 29:03Yes, wow, because to me it felt very forward. What's going
- 29:07on? I'm very strange. Why are you attacking a security guard for actually
- 29:10no reason? I know, I mean it was entertaining. It's like very
- 29:12dramatic, but I'm like, and then why is Sandival trying to be like
- 29:15exactly what's going on? Just getting on? Let me get this cherry.
- 29:18I'm a good guy. I'll throw myself in the middle of this melee to
- 29:22help whoever. I'm a good guy. Yeah, okay, yeah, mister,
- 29:26I paint my fingernails like you're not gonna do shit. I'm sorry.
- 29:30What do you have against men who paint their against perfectly fine? One of
- 29:33my very best friends paints his nails on. I don't have anything wrong with
- 29:36it. I'm just dogging on his appearance because I hate him so much.
- 29:40Okay, that's why I will allow it. Because he's a loser and he
- 29:42acts like he's this tough guy. But I'm like, you're not You're a
- 29:45guy from fucking l an do. Yeah, you're not gonna do shit.
- 29:48Stop acting like a the like law law. It's so ridiculous. And then
- 29:55we have the Sena Marie performance of Apples and Good as Gold mm and it
- 30:03was horrible. It was really fucking that. And she was performing with the
- 30:07twenty sevens. Okay, her band. I guess that she's gonna go on
- 30:11tour with did I dream that We had a conversation in which you told me
- 30:15I was a part of this lay mass? Who ass so embarrassing. I'm
- 30:22embarrassed for her. I mean, okay, if she had talent, yeah,
- 30:27if she had something creative, like substantively creative to offer, I'd be
- 30:33like, Okay, you're a little bit long in the tooth for the industry.
- 30:36Don't come at me. This is California, this is holly weird.
- 30:37True, yeah, you're a little long on the tooth to do it,
- 30:40but like you've got actual talent, so yeah, go out there and try.
- 30:42But she know you don't have any talent. There's no reason you don't
- 30:45have a series of fucking number one hits. It's because you can't sing your
- 30:48autotuned death. I know. I'm like, are you lip singing on this?
- 30:52She's singing over the track. Okay, that's what the track is playing
- 30:56loudly and she's singing along to it off key. Yeah, nobody wants no.
- 31:00It's it's so cringe. And then Sandoval again is like cheering her on
- 31:06and he's like smiling and he's like, oh, yeah, I know.
- 31:07I didn't like Apples at first, but now it's growing on me, and
- 31:11I'm like, this is all just for your redemption art. It's so cringe.
- 31:15But then you have Arianna and even Katie in the crowd. They know
- 31:18each and every word. Yeah, that they are supporting her. I thought
- 31:22that was really fantastic. Girls supporting girls, even though she and a you
- 31:26male sympathizer, you don't do that for them. But getting ahead of myself,
- 31:30yeah, oh and I fucking forgot. But Joe goes up to Katie,
- 31:36Oh, I really want to talk about yes with you, so tell
- 31:40us what happens. Well, Joe starts talking with Schwartz at first, and
- 31:44she's like, I really want to like apologize to Katie, but I also
- 31:47want her to apologize to me for being so mean and Schwartz is like,
- 31:51yeah, I think it's good to do. It's good do it, which
- 31:53is so mean because he knows how Katie's gonna, definitely knows who Katie is
- 31:57as a person. And then she goes over there and she goes, I'm
- 32:02sorry if I hurt your feelings, Katie. Katie immediately pounces on her and
- 32:07she's like, you're sorry if you're sorry if you did hurt me, and
- 32:12proceeds to dress Joe down deeply. I mean, so Joe changes how she's
- 32:19apologizing. She's like, Okay, I'm sorry that I did these things,
- 32:22but that's not enough for Katie because Katie's really pissed off. And this was
- 32:27really toxic af of Katie, really toxic af of Katie. You have proceeded
- 32:34to go on and have a couple of different relationships with other people. You
- 32:37even had a relationship with Max Boyan's for whatever reason, Like you're living your
- 32:42life. Tom's out here with his girl having his life. Get mad at
- 32:46Tom, right, I mean, by all accounts, you weren't actually really
- 32:52friends with Joe, like you were acquaintances. That was Kristen's friend, so
- 32:55she knew of Joe. But this is not like they hung out a lot
- 32:58together. It's not like they were deep friends, and so the way that
- 33:01she came at her was so mean. That's the Katie that I remember from
- 33:07seasons before. That's the Katie that I used to hate on vander Pump Rules.
- 33:13That's the woman hating Katie that she didn't need to do all that.
- 33:16Joe, for as quirky and weird as she definitely is, and also for
- 33:22as inappropriate as she was to send her a text, Hey, I support
- 33:24you and then go fuck your man, that's inappropriate. She's obviously coming cap
- 33:29in hand like Robin Brown. She's obviously not your equal. Yeah, in
- 33:35a lot of ways, And we don't even have to get into all the
- 33:37ways you could stand to have a little grace. What would it cost you
- 33:42to just say, you know what, you really hurt me. I'm not
- 33:44ready to accept your apology. Maybe at some point in the future we can
- 33:47have a discussion. But no, you got to go so hard and so
- 33:51heavy for the jugular. I was just like, that's a bad look.
- 33:54Yeah, And she made Joe cry, which I kind of felt bad for.
- 33:58But at the same time time, Joe I don't think was coming over
- 34:01there for the best intentions. Really. She even says at one point in
- 34:07their little altercation, she wasn't even thinking about Katie when she went to go
- 34:12couch surf, as she calls it, on Schwartz's couch, like and Katie's
- 34:15like, you could have gone to literally anybody else, but you had to
- 34:19go after my man, like literally like a month or so after they split
- 34:22up. That's pretty fucked up to me. And so Joe seemed to be
- 34:25contesting that. She said that there were months in between the text and when
- 34:30she actually hooked up with Schwartz. I don't believe that. I feel like
- 34:34they've been lying their whole friends with benefits thing. Like it took them till
- 34:38just now to admit that they've been fucking this whole entire time. Anyway,
- 34:42So it's like, I don't know. I think Katie was too hard.
- 34:45She was really mean. I mean, when Laala's telling you to chill out,
- 34:47like maybe it's a little bit of a bad look. Yeah, comes
- 34:51so hard for this woman who is not your intellectual, your physical, your
- 34:54emotional equal, Like you don't have to do all that, You could just
- 34:57sit there in your grace and win that entire argument with like saying nothing really,
- 35:01or just say totally thanks for saying that. I really appreciate it,
- 35:05period and just be done with it, or get up and fucking walk away.
- 35:07Yeah, pull an Ariana exactly. No, but you've got to be
- 35:09mean. Yeah that was fun. You've got to be hurtful. You've got
- 35:13to try and hurt this girl and make her cry. Yeah. And then
- 35:15Schwartz is like, well, she just wants peace, and Katie's like,
- 35:19I don't want peace, Like, well, I mean, I guess that's
- 35:21fair, but like, this is why Lala says you're a miserable person.
- 35:24This is why Lala says you're unhappy and you're angry. And let's keep in
- 35:29mind that I think Schwartz and Katie had been separated slash divorce for about a
- 35:36year at the time of this filming, maybe a year and a half,
- 35:37Okay, So I mean it's still a bit fresh. Yeah, And I
- 35:40think Joe moving so quickly to hook up with Tom was probably really painful at
- 35:45the time. Yep. So I mean I understand where the emotion is coming
- 35:49from, but like, you don't have the right to speak to people like
- 35:54that without repercussion. I mean, you could do what the fuck you want,
- 35:57but I'm gonna judge you for like, who do you think you are?
- 36:00Totally You're not better than anybody else just because you think Joe's weird,
- 36:04which you actually call her weird, And Laala has to say, don't do
- 36:07that, like we're not fucking in high school. You're not a mean girl.
- 36:09Click yeah. And then when she gets up to leave and Joe goes
- 36:14and cries and leaves, I think Katie goes up to Schwartz and is like,
- 36:17I've told you a million times, keep it away from me, Like
- 36:21she calls Joe an it, and I'm like, Okay, we don't have
- 36:24to be that vile. I mean, it's fucking Joe, And like she
- 36:29seems like a real person. She might be weird, Okay, she might
- 36:31be kind of crazy, but she seems like a real person who's stuck in
- 36:37this vapid circle of people for some reason. I don't know why these people
- 36:42idolize each other like this, Like I don't know why they go to these
- 36:45parties and they're like, fa, you're so cool fame and celebrity and clo
- 36:47I can't relate. I hate that. Yeah, I don't know why else
- 36:51Joe would even be on the periphery of this particular friend group. But I
- 36:54have to say, like all of the goodwill that Katie built with me as
- 36:59just an audience member, because I never really liked her. I told you
- 37:01that at the beginning. Yeah, Like in one episode, I'm like,
- 37:05okay, I'm side eyeing you again. Yeah, just a mean, despicable
- 37:07person. I wouldn't want to be around you either. Yeah. So like
- 37:12I like that she defends Arianna, yeah, with her boundaries and stuff.
- 37:15But then when she does shit like this, I'm like, damn, you're
- 37:16a bitch, Like you're really terrible. He's not a trash person. She's
- 37:21doing a trash thing. Yeah right, she's actually a good person. Just
- 37:24did a trash theme. R Okay. And then after Sheena Marie's performance,
- 37:30Ariana goes up to congratulate her, and this is where Sina's got to talk
- 37:35to her again about how she thinks that Sanda fal scrawling. Why I can't
- 37:39it's just be about your performance. Why can't it just be about your friendship?
- 37:44Why can't it just be a download about your lives? Why do we
- 37:46have to talk about Tom again? I don't know and Sina fucking cries again.
- 37:51She's like, I think he's really genuine. I think he's actually growing.
- 37:54And Ariana, you can see the look in her good are we doing
- 37:58this again? She's like, Okay, can I just set up? Yeah?
- 38:00And she goes, can I just ask you? I don't want to
- 38:02hear about his growth, that's it, and she was like okay. And
- 38:07then this is where Arianna and her interstitials like, I don't know where Sina's
- 38:12gotten this idea where I don't want to be friends with somebody who's friends with
- 38:15standable. I never said that. Cue the producer flashbags, Yeah, flashbacks.
- 38:21So I don't know. I'm just like I side eyed Ariana for that
- 38:23a little bit because I'm like, you're acting like you didn't have this harsh
- 38:28line I have all time, this pressure on not just Shena but the rest
- 38:31of the group. You absolutely have, and you showed that a non king
- 38:35talking to Schwartz the way that you did, feeling super entitled to speak to
- 38:37people that way and dictate the terms of this friend group, like you don't
- 38:40get to do that. Yep. It's giving me Olivia Plath a little bit,
- 38:45like you can't hang around the Plath parents because it violates my boundary.
- 38:51It's like, you can't control what other people do. You can control what
- 38:53you do, and you can remove yourself from the situation, and that's totally
- 38:58fine. You don't have to fucking interact with Tom Sandibal, but like,
- 39:00don't dictate what everybody else can do. Was this conversation before or after the
- 39:06performance? This is after? Okay, yeah, got it. It was
- 39:08congrat She was congratulating her for such a good job. I mean, despite
- 39:12Ariana being immediately frustrated, as I think anybody would be, like, if
- 39:16you're putting something super negative in front of my face over and over and over
- 39:20again, I'm gonna get exhausted and I'm not gonna want to be around you.
- 39:22So despite that Sina doing that all season and Shina doing it in this
- 39:28scene in particular, like Ariana is still so supportive of Shena. Yep,
- 39:31she's so there for her. She's congratulatory, and she also is like,
- 39:36You're never gonna lose me. You are my family. I am here with
- 39:38you. Do not worry about that. Yeah, i'man like way more support
- 39:44than Shena actually deserves, especially when like in the next scene, she's with
- 39:47Lalla, agreeing with Laala that Ariana's acting like Beyonce. I know, yeah,
- 39:53she is such a bad, so terrible. And so after Arianna and
- 39:59she A hug and they kiss and She's like, I love you, and
- 40:01she does like I love you too. Then Sandoval has to interject into this
- 40:07conversation to talk to she and and be like, hey, Sheena, congrats,
- 40:10And this is where Ariana fucking leaves. She doesn't say a word,
- 40:15no, she just sleeves. And this is where she gets mad at the
- 40:17producers, because the producers are trying to keep her at the party and keep
- 40:22her on set, and they want this conversation to happen. They do,
- 40:25and She's like, no, I'm not gonna fucking talk to him. He
- 40:29does not get access to me. This is where she talks about non informed
- 40:32consent because he doesn't give a fuck if I died a fucking ditch or if
- 40:36he gives me a deadly STD while he's fucking around my back. I'm done.
- 40:40I don't I don't want to talk to him. He does not deserve
- 40:44it. And I thought that was fucking base. I did as well,
- 40:46and I'm one hundred percent team Ariana. Aycha. You could tell that everybody
- 40:50in the cast was kind of standing around waiting for this conversation to happen,
- 40:54like they all planned for like one final blowout between Tom and Ariana so that
- 41:00this conversation could happen. And she's just not giving them what they're expecting.
- 41:04She's not giving them what they want. She's not giving the producers what they
- 41:07want because the producer is like, please don't go, like, no,
- 41:09I need you back in. You're like, we've got to have this conversation.
- 41:12He's like, I absolutely don't have to have this conversation. Have agency
- 41:16over my body and I don't need this bullshit. And so she left.
- 41:21I loved it me too. I'm like, pop off queen. And she
- 41:24left peacefully. She got Dan. He's like, let's call a lift.
- 41:29They go stand outside, and that was it. Yeah, she fucking leaves.
- 41:31And so after she walks out, then Shehena tells Santoval about it,
- 41:36and she's like, she doesn't want to talk to you because Sandoval tried to
- 41:39go after her, which is really fucked up because you know she doesn't want
- 41:43to talk to you, Obvisali. Yeah, and you're still trying to violate
- 41:46her boundary because you're a fucking narc And then this is where Sandoval starts getting
- 41:51pissed because Sina says, Arianna thinks that Sandoval's being performative, and this is
- 41:57what sets him over the edge, and he starts screaming. He's like,
- 42:00I'm not fucking performative. If anybody's performative, it's Ariana because she fucking hates
- 42:06all you fuckers, and she's lazy. She doesn't film and she doesn't show
- 42:09up. And I'm the one who is always historically shown up for the both
- 42:14of us, but she can't fucking be ours to get out of bed because
- 42:16she's lazy. And I'm just like, okay, what happened to all that
- 42:21all that graciousness, all that composure, all that growth you were showing,
- 42:24Like it's in a drop of a hat, it's totally gone. And they
- 42:29all go over to where Laala is and I think Katie is buzzing around somewhere,
- 42:34and this is where they have the conversation that breaks the fourth wall,
- 42:37Like when I saw this scene at the beginning of the season with Laala yelling
- 42:43like, who does she think she is? How do you get everything you
- 42:45ever wanted and or how do you what did she say? She was like,
- 42:49how can somebody get cheated on and then think that they're gone or something
- 42:52like that. Yeah, So when I saw that at the beginning of the
- 42:55season, I thought, oh my god, something must have really gone down,
- 42:59like Lalla's Arianna must have really done something to Lala. I'm like,
- 43:02she'dn't do anything to you, Lala, nothing. She walked out of the
- 43:06room. She avoided a conflict. She didn't want to get messy. She's
- 43:08conducting herself like a mature woman. Not that you'd know anything about that life,
- 43:14right, That's what makes her mad because she was waiting around to interject
- 43:17herself in the inevitable messy conversation with Sandoval. Yep, and now she doesn't
- 43:22get to. So now she's gonna blow up and talk all this shit about
- 43:25Arianna and be like, I can't believe you're believing. That's such a slap
- 43:30in the face. And I'm like, why, as if you're the fucking
- 43:34producer of the show. Well, because she wants everybody to show up,
- 43:37show their lives. This is what they've been doing most of their adult life.
- 43:40This is what the job is. You can't just walk out and not
- 43:44have conversations as if she didn't do that for years with Randall Emmett, Like,
- 43:50get the fuck over it, missing that this is exactly out of your
- 43:53playbook. Arianna has shown up so much more in this season than you ever
- 43:59did in those and you have the nerve to call her out for it.
- 44:00I'm like, oh my gosh, shut the fuck up already, right,
- 44:04And she even says something where she's like, Tom and Ariana were not honest
- 44:08about their relationship until he cheated, So what does that mean? What would
- 44:13she be referring to that they didn't show the inner workings of their relationship.
- 44:17And Tom has said that there were a lot of problems like that this had
- 44:22been going on for quite some time, that Ariana was very disrespectful, YadA,
- 44:25YadA, YadA, And so she's saying, like, but we didn't
- 44:29see any of that. We saw you show up at the different parties.
- 44:31We saw we saw Ariana platforming Tom Sandoval quite a lot, super big supporter
- 44:37of Tom Sandeval, but not really have a whole lot going on in her
- 44:39own life. And that's what she's calling out. She's like, not until
- 44:44something went wrong in the relationship. Are we even learning about who you two
- 44:47are in a relationship? Wow, so that's what she's mad about. Yes,
- 44:52that's really freaking stupid. Well, I mean, actually it's it's fair.
- 44:55Like, if you're gonna be putting yourself on this show, show your
- 45:00actual life. Andy Cohen says this to all of these reality stars all the
- 45:04time, like this is your fucking job. But Lala, you're not the
- 45:07messenger to be to be saying that because you haven't done that. That's what
- 45:12I'm saying. And what the fuck have you done this entire season? I
- 45:15haven't seen anything about your life, nothing at all. Besides you're saying that
- 45:19you're sober and you have a sparkling water is your thing. Oh I'm snoring.
- 45:23I'm literally losing consciousness and dwelling in the fifth dimension where it's way better
- 45:28than your life. Seriously, even Sheena and Brag and all of them,
- 45:30I feel like everybody shows what they want us to see, because of course
- 45:36they're all human beings. They don't want all their fucking dirty laundry on TV.
- 45:39And I get that, but like, you're also on a reality show,
- 45:43so give us something. We can't just be watching a bunch of boring
- 45:46ass people drink sparkling water and go to all these fucking parties and stuff and
- 45:51be boring as fut yep, nobody cares to be produced as fuck. Yeah,
- 45:55manufactured as fuck and fake as fuck. I mean even James and Ali
- 46:01are boring. I mean, like they're sweeten all, but they're boring.
- 46:07Yeah, And we really don't know what's going on in their life besides her
- 46:09astrology readings and his endless DJ gigs. And I'm like, what about what
- 46:15happened when you broke up with him and he had to get sober? Like
- 46:19what about a deeper dive on that relationship aspect? Like I'd love to hear
- 46:22about that, but we're not even getting that from them, right, So
- 46:24why are we doing this show? And that is why you're on pause.
- 46:28It's not just because Ariana's and Fiji doing Love Island. It's because y'all have
- 46:31lost the plot. Yeah, y'all have lost the plot. After the final
- 46:36three episodes of vander pump Rule's season ten last season, we got invested again.
- 46:42Yeah all, we're like, oh fuck, it's real again. Yeah,
- 46:45I want to see what happens to these people. And then you came
- 46:46back on your bullshit for season eleven, and now I'm like, Ah'm out,
- 46:51Like it was boring before season ten? Really yeah it was. It
- 46:55was winding down. We lost cast members, Jacks and some trash bags who
- 47:00are now in the Valley, lost a lot of people. Things shifted and
- 47:04changed, and now I'm just like, give me a reason, right,
- 47:07there's nothing, and like even on the Valley, when you contrast it like
- 47:10the Valley, it's not like there's a lot going on in terms of like
- 47:15parties and stuff like that, but there's gossip and there's like friend dynamics and
- 47:19fidelity, yes, yeah, active infidelity actions shit. Still yeah, and
- 47:24it's way more interesting because it's real life problems and real people dealing with their
- 47:30life and dealing with it in the worst ways, which is because they're not
- 47:34trained reality stars. Because they came on thinking they knew what everybody wanted to
- 47:37see and wanting to present themselves in a certain way but not knowing how to
- 47:42do it yet, and so it ends up backfiring. And it's incredibly entertaining.
- 47:46It is on the Valley. But you've got these veterans, right,
- 47:51I mean, doing this for twelve whole years. God, I can't imagine.
- 47:53Yeah, they're completely moderating and legislating what they're giving. This interesting to
- 48:00me, it's just not and I'm not by So let's do a breakdown,
- 48:02all right. Well, I got to get to the very end because of
- 48:05the hot mic oh yeah with Tom. Yes, when after all of this
- 48:09ends and the montages and everything, the producer's like, this is the end,
- 48:15and they said that was a fucking plot twist, and Sandoval's like,
- 48:19yeah, it works out for me though, Yeah, like really it does?
- 48:22Right? How so right? And then you have Arianna in her talking
- 48:28head saying like, if this is so important to you to apologize to me
- 48:32or to have a conversation with me, it should be as important when the
- 48:37cameras aren't there. You could have written me a letter, you could have
- 48:39talked to me in a different way, and I could have received that,
- 48:43but you never tried. When I've been there the entire time, I've been
- 48:46under the same roof the entire time, except when she's traveling, of course.
- 48:49Yeah, Like there's many opportunities off camera that you could have done that,
- 48:52but because you wanted this to happen on cameras, that's your true colors,
- 48:55that's who you are. Oh totally. And actually there was a part
- 48:59where she calls him out, calls him out for this before he blows up
- 49:02and gets all triggered. She asks him, what do I mean to you?
- 49:07And he's like a lot, and she's like, well, just because
- 49:08the cameras are rolling, or like in general, and he's like, no,
- 49:12I'm there for you, like I show up. And she looks at
- 49:15him, and I think she knows that it's fake and that Ariana and Katie
- 49:19have been right this whole entire time, and she's like, don't make me
- 49:21look like a fucking idiot. I don't think she knows that at all.
- 49:23I think she continues to say things that can be interpreted as support for Ariana,
- 49:29but she doesn't believe them at all. She is a tom sound of
- 49:31all sympathizer. I just wonder if she did that because she has a little
- 49:37bit of a heart, like she's like, oh, yeah, no,
- 49:38I do love him because she cries a lot about him and stuff. I
- 49:42know she's fake, but like, I just wonder if there was like a
- 49:45nugget of truth, like maybe he convinced her to be like yeah, be
- 49:47my ride or die all season and it's gonna work out for you, And
- 49:51now it's not. Sandoval kind of echoes this, and he's like, everybody
- 49:53that is humanizing me is dealing with all of the heat for it. And
- 50:00I'm like, yeah, I mean, it's hard for me to see you
- 50:04as a human though, when you do shit like this and you're fake as
- 50:07fuck on the cameras, right, and then I know when you turn the
- 50:08cameras off, you're a piece of shit. Still real recognizes real raccoons are
- 50:14real. Yeah, we can clock it, but we can see it.
- 50:16They are pathetic. And so now let's do a cast breakdown how we feel
- 50:21about them at the end of the season, starting with Ariana. I love
- 50:24her, you love her? Yeah? I like her? Yeah, I
- 50:28like her. I'm very curious to see if she returns because I think it's
- 50:30fifty to fifty right now. Yeah, And she even references in the after
- 50:35show like check the contract, like these are the terms under which I show
- 50:38up to work and it's in my contract, so you can blow me Ooh,
- 50:42So I am interested in Ariana if she comes back with something interesting.
- 50:46Yeah, what about Katie? I mean I still like Katie. Yeah,
- 50:52I mean, I know she's a mean girl and she's a bit of a
- 50:54bitch, but I still like that she was ride or dive for Ariana the
- 50:59entire season, Like she never wavered on that. So loyal, so loyal,
- 51:02defending her boundary. Like I really do respect that. Yes, I
- 51:06feel good about Katie. I think she's come a long long way. Baby.
- 51:09I think that there are parts within all of us that can lose our
- 51:14cool, you mean, not be appropriate, and I think we saw some
- 51:16of that tonight, but like it was very ugly, but at the same
- 51:20time, as a person, I think she's growing. So I like her
- 51:22and I'm optimistic about Katie. What about James. I liked him this season.
- 51:27Yeah, I know you don't like him because of the DV rumors and
- 51:29stuff, but I'm warming to him. Yeah, and I hope they're not
- 51:31true. Yeah they're not true, But if they turn out to be true,
- 51:35then I just I can't see him. Where is he? I didn't
- 51:37even see him who But I liked him and Ali together. I think they're
- 51:42a cute couple. I think he's I think she's good for him. Tom
- 51:45Schwartz, fuck him, slimy fucking worm, loser, bieber, blonde,
- 51:52piece of shit. I don't like him, yea. If spineless and milk
- 51:58toast or a person, you'd have Tom. But he's also very sniveling and
- 52:01kinniving in the scenes. He's not a dumb person, and I just think
- 52:06he's a bad person. Yeah. What about La la ugh I liked her
- 52:12at the beginning of the season, I really did, and I like that
- 52:15she can speak her mind and everything, and she's not afraid to fight people.
- 52:20But then as the end of the season, I'm like, fuck you,
- 52:22you're a hypocrite. You're talking out your ass and you're going behind your
- 52:28friend's back and it's going to bite you in the ass. On the reunion,
- 52:30I already can tell I don't like her, yea. And there have
- 52:35been seasons where I've really liked her, And there have been seasons when Katie
- 52:37and Stossy have been really really mean to her and really put her down and
- 52:44slut shamed her, and I was really supportive of her. But then over
- 52:47the last five seasons with the Bambi eyed bitch against Raquel, like how mean
- 52:52she was with Raquel, how toxic she is, whether she's drunk or whether
- 52:55she's dry. She's just not a nice person. She's a mean person,
- 53:00and she's unwilling to get help. She's unwilling to get therapy, so she
- 53:04can fucking get off my TV. I'm sick of her. Yeah, Shina,
- 53:07fuck Sheena. Oh so annoying. So self said, I'm sorry,
- 53:12but I'm just I know there's a lot of Shena stands and our fan base.
- 53:15That's cool, you know whatever, But she's so annoying. Uh.
- 53:20She is a black hole of needy. She is constantly in search of the
- 53:27light. She wants to be platformed, she wants to be centered, and
- 53:30even when she's still very prominent, she still feels unless it's centered, that
- 53:37she's not being seen. And she's a very insecure person. She's in a
- 53:40marriage that I think is actually pretty toxic. I don't think it's going to
- 53:45last. I think she's desperate to keep so many streams of income together,
- 53:49which I think inherently she knows she will lose if she loses van Rules,
- 53:52because once vander Pump Rules is gone, who's checking for you? Shena?
- 53:58Fucking neither is broke? Nope. Speaking of which, what do you think
- 54:01of broke? I hate him because some people really liked him. Why I
- 54:07hate him. I hate that he was coming after Ariana the whole entire time,
- 54:09saying she needs to stop being bitter and needs to forgive Sandibal, Like,
- 54:13fuck you, nobody needs your opinion, right, And you're also pretty
- 54:16terrible to your wife, yelling at her for her OCD and for her caring
- 54:21about your kid and caring about who watches your kid, and you're like,
- 54:23just get a nanny, just get somebody. Fuck you, Fuck you,
- 54:28brock, And why can't you watch your kids for real? I mean,
- 54:30I don't have a problem with the men being at home taking care of the
- 54:34children and taking care of them. Yeah, like Nick Davis, I'm seeking
- 54:37to the stuff. I don't have a problem with that, and like not
- 54:38tied to gender normative fucking roles. But like all you talk about are the
- 54:42businesses you want to start with Shana's money and all the projects you want to
- 54:45do with Shena's backing, Like stay home, fucking make dinner, take care
- 54:50of that kid, and quit your fucking bitching. Get off my TV,
- 54:53brock, nobody needs you. I hate him. He's a worm with a
- 54:58mustache. Okay, I know he doesn't a mustache really this season, but
- 55:00I hate him. Yeah, he's and people are saying he's a worm with
- 55:04a mustache too. Two point zero. But yes, Sandaval is just like
- 55:07you want us to think that you're a human being and that you've changed and
- 55:13you've grown and everything. I don't see it at all at all, because
- 55:15if you actually grew, you wouldn't have said anything to Ariana all season.
- 55:22You would have respected her boundaries. You would have shut the fuck up when
- 55:25you guys were in group situations, and you wouldn't have bothered her. But
- 55:30you kept antagonizing her. You wanted to turn the audience against her by saying
- 55:35she's the mean one who's abusing you and was so angry, and I don't
- 55:38buy it. Fuck you. Yeah, that's my hot take on it.
- 55:43I think that he doesn't have any substance beneath the Veneer, and unfortunately for
- 55:51him, the Veneer is on its way out. Like, if you think
- 55:54you're good looking, that's great, But now you're in your forties and gonna
- 55:58be in your fifties, what are you taking with you into your future?
- 56:01That is eternal, that is something you can hold on to. I know
- 56:06that you're a creative person, but honestly, like Ciniche, you suck.
- 56:08It's your creativity, like you actually can't say, and you're very pitchy.
- 56:10I don't know why people pay to see things terrible, but like you've got
- 56:15nothing going on underneath, like the emperor fucking has no clothes. You've got
- 56:20nothing to offer. And so I don't want to see you back next season
- 56:23because really you aren't even allowed into Schwartz and Sandy. I know we can't
- 56:29even see you like working an actual job. What we're supposed to follow you
- 56:32around with the most extras. We're over it, Tom, So you are
- 56:37so yesterday you get the fuck off my TV. So, like, what
- 56:40is the solution for Van der pump rules, Like if it is supposed to
- 56:45endure, if it's gonna come back and be successful, what does it need
- 56:50to do in your opinion? Oh god, I don't even know. I
- 56:53really don't even know, because if Ariana would have to be on it,
- 56:58it'd have to be something like that, but she'd have to be entertaining.
- 57:00I don't want to see you yelling at sand of all the whole entire time,
- 57:02unless it's like crazy, unless it's about your lawyer stuff. I'd love
- 57:07to know about what's going on in your guys's lawsuit and the house and everything.
- 57:10That'd be cool, but we're not gonna get into any of the real
- 57:13stuff. We're just gonna be going to more water Somalia's and fucking trips to
- 57:17ta manufactured events that you guys would never go on unless it was for this
- 57:22show. I can't deal with that. It's so boring. Otherwise, I
- 57:27one hundred percent agree, and I think they need to clear the decks.
- 57:30I think they need to recast this new cast completely. I don't think we
- 57:34need a bunch of twenty year old messes. We already have that with Southern
- 57:37Hospitality. Yeah, but I think we could get some late twenties, some
- 57:42early thirties, like a whole new cast. Maybe you could keep one or
- 57:45two of these folks. I don't know who that would be, though,
- 57:47maybe La Law I don't know. Yes, I mean, Ariana's not that
- 57:52interested Katie. I want a place for Katie would be quick. I would
- 57:54love for Katie to land somewhere because I'm not sure what else she's doing beside
- 58:00something about her. Yeah, like if vander Pump goes away, I hope
- 58:02you've been investing. I hope you have some properties or something, hopefully,
- 58:07But like, I don't even know about her journey. If i'd want to
- 58:10see it, I just clear the decks, start over and or shutter it,
- 58:15shut it down, cancel it. Yeah. I wonder if they're going
- 58:17to cancel it after this season because it was such a dud, because maybe
- 58:22maybe this was their like plan B storyline was Tom Sandival's redemption arc because Raquel
- 58:28declined to film at the last minute. They were like, fuck, right
- 58:30now, what do we do? But I'm like, you could have come
- 58:34up with anything, anything better. Yeah. It was bad. Yeah,
- 58:37a bad season, horrible. So those are our final thoughts on vander Pump
- 58:40Rules. If you are on YouTube and you guys wanna let us know what
- 58:45you think about it, Like did you like the season finale? Did you
- 58:47like this season? Are you thinking we're nuts in our position about Sandabal or
- 58:52Lala? Like, tell us what you think. We love to read your
- 58:54comments. We read this one. I read them. She reads them all,
- 58:58and she said, we got a comment on our last video where someone
- 59:01was talking about her twirling her hair. Yeah, and like, would you
- 59:06stop it already? Beatrice. Yeah, they're like, I like this show,
- 59:08but can the blonde stop twirling my hair? And I said no,
- 59:14it's a nervous tick. Shea say, oh CD tick. I should get
- 59:19on the solof you should get on the soloof, like, just leave us
- 59:22alone. Yeah, I up creating content. We're gonna show up looking like
- 59:27this. That problem with it? Cry more get fuck dumb. We still
- 59:32have to talk about the valley, so let's get the book at it here.
- 59:36Is there anything else that we need to say to these beautiful raccoons?
- 59:39Beatres Well, if you love our podcast, I sure hope you go to
- 59:43your favorite podcast platform and leave us a glowing five star review. Please make
- 59:47it nice because we appreciate it so much. I gotch thank you. We'll
