- 2:12Speaker 1: begging for a show about the agency for a very
- 2:16Speaker 1: long time. And baby, you do not disappoint know that.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Oh I love you for that, Carlos. So you and
- 2:26Speaker 3: I have a couple of things in common. First of all,
- 2:28Speaker 3: I'm also obsessed with my wife Kyle Richards, So you
- 2:32Speaker 3: and I've got the obsession going on in the same way.
- 2:36Speaker 3: And just feel so fun about that and so good
- 2:38Speaker 3: about that. And yeah, we are so excited to have
- 2:41Speaker 3: brought Buying Beverly Hills, you know, to television on Netflix,
- 2:46Speaker 3: and I've gotten such great response from everybody that's watching it,
- 2:49Speaker 3: and I really just hope you know that we're able
- 2:52Speaker 3: to get season two, three, and four. We still have
- 2:54Speaker 3: so much more to offer and so much fun and
- 2:56Speaker 3: so much good shit going on.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Oh, there's a lot of shit going on. So let's
- 3:01Speaker 2: get started with this part. You obviously have.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Been a part of reality TV for a very long time.
- 3:08Speaker 1: What made you, sir, venture off into your own show
- 3:13Speaker 1: where you are an at but single episode and the commitment,
- 3:18Speaker 1: as you know, is big when you're the face of
- 3:21Speaker 1: the show.
- 3:23Speaker 3: Well, you know what, Carlos, Honestly, it's we're already on television, right.
- 3:27Speaker 3: I've been doing so much reality television for so many
- 3:30Speaker 3: years now. I've worked with Nick Lasha and Jessica Simpson
- 3:34Speaker 3: back in the day if you remember the you know
- 3:36Speaker 3: their thing, and then obviously everything I've done with the
- 3:39Speaker 3: Real Housewives of Beverty Hills. But we just felt that
- 3:42Speaker 3: we had something to offer, right, We felt that we
- 3:44Speaker 3: could entertain. I was looking at all of our competition
- 3:47Speaker 3: and the reality television on the on the real estate side,
- 3:50Speaker 3: and I felt that there was another angle to real
- 3:52Speaker 3: estate that had not been approached yet. You know, obviously,
- 3:55Speaker 3: amazing real estate forms some of the best houses ever
- 4:00Speaker 3: on the planet, which you know, there's some really beautiful
- 4:03Speaker 3: houses on a lot of the stuff that you've seen,
- 4:05Speaker 3: but we just had that level up.
- 4:06Speaker 4: You know, we leveled up. We had a little extra
- 4:08Speaker 4: on that one. You know.
- 4:10Speaker 3: Secondly, we really wanted to create a show that that
- 4:14Speaker 3: appealed to a wide variety of audience. Okay, and what
- 4:18Speaker 3: I mean by that, I'm talking about young professionals in
- 4:21Speaker 3: their twenties, Okay, graduating high college, going into the workforce.
- 4:26Speaker 3: You know, what does it take to be successful in
- 4:29Speaker 3: the workforce? Also, you know people in their thirties and forties,
- 4:33Speaker 3: you know that are in you know, in any business.
- 4:36Speaker 3: It doesn't only have to be in real estate, but
- 4:37Speaker 3: you know, in sales and get something out of it
- 4:41Speaker 3: that you know, it also taught them. So not only
- 4:43Speaker 3: entertains people through the beautiful real estate porn and through
- 4:47Speaker 3: some of the drama and all of that stuff, but
- 4:48Speaker 3: great a show that also taught a little bit. Yeah.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Now, listen, I am a huge fan of real estate
- 4:55Speaker 1: and watching this show. Yes, the real estate porn is great,
- 4:58Speaker 1: and we'll get to the cast as well, but I
- 5:01Speaker 1: want to focus on you a bit because I mean,
- 5:05Speaker 1: I'm the king of reality TV, but you're the king
- 5:07Speaker 1: of real estate, Mauricio, and watching you and the agency
- 5:13Speaker 1: grow into being number one in the state of California,
- 5:17Speaker 1: and obviously you have different agencies all over the world.
- 5:22Speaker 2: I want to talk about your start because.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Like you make me want to, you know, put reality
- 5:29Speaker 1: TV on Pauls in order to get my real estate license,
- 5:33Speaker 1: because I want to wear a red blazer in my
- 5:35Speaker 1: confessionals too. So talk to me about how did you
- 5:39Speaker 1: get your start in real estate to the point where
- 5:42Speaker 1: Mauricio the Agency is truly the number one real estate
- 5:47Speaker 1: agency in the world.
- 5:49Speaker 4: Well, I love you for saying that.
- 5:51Speaker 3: That's you know, what it was meant to do is
- 5:52Speaker 3: also to be aspirational, right, which is so important for us.
- 5:56Speaker 3: But oh my god, Carlos, I got you know, like everybody,
- 6:01Speaker 3: you know, we all have stories to tell. And I'm
- 6:02Speaker 3: actually writing a book and it's coming out very soon
- 6:05Speaker 3: April eleventh, with all of these stories.
- 6:07Speaker 4: But I'll give you a little bit of a glimpse
- 6:09Speaker 4: into it.
- 6:09Speaker 3: You know, basically, you know, like a lot of people
- 6:12Speaker 3: in this world, you know, I struggled.
- 6:14Speaker 4: You know, I grew up.
- 6:15Speaker 3: In a relatively wealthy family, but you know, back in
- 6:18Speaker 3: the nineties, we lost a lot of money. I went
- 6:21Speaker 3: to go take a job in the fashion industry. I
- 6:23Speaker 3: got fired from that job right before Christmas, and I
- 6:30Speaker 3: got home and I just I was so distraught and
- 6:33Speaker 3: hurt and my crying and bawling, and walked in to
- 6:37Speaker 3: my wife and I we were in a two bedroom
- 6:39Speaker 3: condo with two kids and me and my wife, and
- 6:42Speaker 3: you know, she knew immediately what had happened, and she
- 6:46Speaker 3: just super supportive said to me, hey, you know, don't
- 6:49Speaker 3: worry about it.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Let's take next steps.
- 6:51Speaker 3: That was in the fashion business before, by the way,
- 6:54Speaker 3: and I always wanted to get into real estate. And
- 6:56Speaker 3: she said, listen, let's go get our real estate license.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Like this is a right, this is a good oportunity.
- 7:00Speaker 3: Let's not make this failure be the failure of ours.
- 7:03Speaker 3: Let's make this the opportunity for a new door to open.
- 7:06Speaker 3: And she was so supportive, and we actually went together
- 7:09Speaker 3: and we made it a date night, and we went
- 7:11Speaker 3: together to go get our real estate licenses, and you know,
- 7:15Speaker 3: that was when we had, you know, somebody taking care
- 7:16Speaker 3: of the kids. We went out there and then I
- 7:19Speaker 3: got into real estate. She did, she got her license.
- 7:21Speaker 3: She obviously doesn't practice, but then that's when we all
- 7:24Speaker 3: started going and I started and I got into sales.
- 7:26Speaker 3: It was meant for me. It fit like a glove.
- 7:28Speaker 3: I Year one, I made about one hundred and eighty
- 7:31Speaker 3: thousand dollars, and I made myself one promise that I
- 7:34Speaker 3: would never have a lesser year of the future year
- 7:36Speaker 3: that I had the previous year. And I kept that
- 7:38Speaker 3: promise now for twenty six years, all the way through
- 7:41Speaker 3: starting the agency, and there's just been so many different
- 7:44Speaker 3: opportunities in terms of, you know, changing things Carlos.
- 7:48Speaker 4: And making real estate you know, so much better.
- 7:50Speaker 3: Real estate was such an archaic thing, and you know,
- 7:53Speaker 3: I'm happy to say that I think that we're one
- 7:55Speaker 3: of the people, through the agency and myself, that brought
- 7:59Speaker 3: sexy in to real estate.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Right.
- 8:01Speaker 3: Real estate became sexy ten years ago. It wasn't sexy before.
- 8:04Speaker 3: It was selling three bedrooms, two bathrooms, granted countertops, you know,
- 8:09Speaker 3: with biking appliances. Right, all of a sudden, ten eleven
- 8:12Speaker 3: years ago, when I started the agency, we started brand marketing,
- 8:16Speaker 3: we started event marketing, We started throwing the super you know,
- 8:21Speaker 3: open house with parties and Lamborghinis and and Tiffany and
- 8:26Speaker 3: Dior and all of these things, and all of a sudden,
- 8:28Speaker 3: we brought sexy into real estate, and that's what started
- 8:31Speaker 3: the agency and we're the ones that created that that
- 8:35Speaker 3: that world and really changed you know, real estate, you know,
- 8:38Speaker 3: to what it is today. And I think that the
- 8:40Speaker 3: agency myself, you know, is what brought and allowed and
- 8:43Speaker 3: paved the world to real estate being on you know,
- 8:47Speaker 3: sexy enough to be on television for reality shows for
- 8:49Speaker 3: people that want to watch it, because the reality is
- 8:51Speaker 3: we have amazing architecture, amazing interior design. But we're the
- 8:56Speaker 3: ones that brought lifestyle into real estate. Right we sold lifestyle.
- 9:02Speaker 3: We never sold the four bedrooms, three baths, you know,
- 9:06Speaker 3: granted countertops, that's not what I sold. I always sold lifestyle.
- 9:10Speaker 3: What do you do in that particular place right Naspen?
- 9:13Speaker 3: You know my house? You know what do I do?
- 9:15Speaker 4: I hike?
- 9:15Speaker 3: I go outside. I'm on one of the best hiking
- 9:18Speaker 3: trails on the planet. Amazing food, you know, just down
- 9:21Speaker 3: the street. Like what am I doing? You know, you're
- 9:23Speaker 3: walking your dog? Like that's what we're selling. We're entertaining,
- 9:26Speaker 3: We're not like that is what lifestyle sales is all about.
- 9:30Speaker 3: And that's what the agency started eleven years ago. And
- 9:33Speaker 3: I'm happy to say that we're definitely part of the
- 9:36Speaker 3: path that opened it up into into what you know
- 9:39Speaker 3: real estate is today and into the sexy. You know,
- 9:41Speaker 3: bring the sexy back, baby.
- 9:45Speaker 1: You're breaking sexy back. You're bringing family back. Because on
- 9:50Speaker 1: buying Beverly Hills, we get to see Farah, your daughter,
- 9:54Speaker 1: and Alexia, who you said was your favorite. I'm not
- 9:57Speaker 1: saying that you said that on this show. And what's
- 10:01Speaker 1: beautiful about seeing your two daughters a part of the
- 10:05Speaker 1: agency is the fact that their polar opposites in terms
- 10:09Speaker 1: of what they do. Farah is definitely, like she said,
- 10:12Speaker 1: she is the person who kind of like hosts things together.
- 10:15Speaker 1: She's the brainiac. She's so butting up. And then we
- 10:20Speaker 1: see Alexia, who to me is she represents Mauricio, every
- 10:25Speaker 1: hungry person and whatever filled your part of where.
- 10:30Speaker 2: You want to be the best.
- 10:32Speaker 1: And obviously she has to live up to her father
- 10:34Speaker 1: and her sister's standards. Was it difficult for your daughters
- 10:39Speaker 1: to show that vernability on this show because we see
- 10:44Speaker 1: Pharah wanting more out of the job, but we also
- 10:48Speaker 1: see Alexia fighting for a position and we see her cry.
- 10:53Speaker 1: When you know, other real estate agents think it's favoritism,
- 10:58Speaker 1: it's nepotism. Was it challenge for them to be a
- 11:01Speaker 1: part of this show knowing that they have to be vulnerable?
- 11:05Speaker 3: That is such a good question. And you know, these
- 11:07Speaker 3: kids were born you know, they weren't born, but they've
- 11:09Speaker 3: had a tell they've had cameras on them for twelve
- 11:12Speaker 3: years now, thirteen years right now. So Porscha was born
- 11:16Speaker 3: with a camera on her pretty much. He was one
- 11:18Speaker 3: year old when we started. But you know, I think
- 11:21Speaker 3: one of the most beautiful things that they did is
- 11:23Speaker 3: really show their authenticity. They were vulnerable. I think everybody
- 11:26Speaker 3: was vulnerable, but obviously started with you know, with them,
- 11:29Speaker 3: And I think that's what makes one of these shows,
- 11:31Speaker 3: what makes Buying Beverly Hill is a great show and
- 11:34Speaker 3: an entertaining show to watch. Is that authenticity, that vulnerability,
- 11:38Speaker 3: make the mistakes. It's not everybody's perfect, it's not everybody's great,
- 11:41Speaker 3: all of those things. I got to tell you, Carlos,
- 11:44Speaker 3: one of the things that I've done with my kids,
- 11:46Speaker 3: I tell them all in secret that they're all my favorites.
- 11:48Speaker 3: So they all laugh now, so I'm allowed to say
- 11:50Speaker 3: they're my favorite. You know, they all think they're my favorite.
- 11:55Speaker 3: They are all my favorite individuals. So I have four favorites, just.
- 12:01Speaker 2: Like a typical agent.
- 12:03Speaker 1: You know, exactly the right things to say, Mauricio, I
- 12:05Speaker 1: love it so much. Who I'm patreaterrupt, But stay tuned
- 12:13Speaker 1: for more. We'll be right back after these quick ass
- 12:23Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
- 12:26Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show. Was it weird for
- 12:30Speaker 1: you to see on the show? You know, we saw
- 12:36Speaker 1: Alexia with her best friend, fellow agent, and you know
- 12:42Speaker 1: this guy who they had a flirty past, Joey. Was
- 12:46Speaker 1: it we're as a father to see on this show
- 12:49Speaker 1: them talk about like sneaking off when they were younger,
- 12:52Speaker 1: to like make god and stuff, and to know that
- 12:55Speaker 1: they are working together.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Is it weird for you.
- 12:58Speaker 1: As a father and a boss to see that office
- 13:01Speaker 1: romance happened earlier on?
- 13:03Speaker 2: Knowing that these are childhood friends.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Too, It's definitely weird. I'm not gonna lie. It's uncomfortable.
- 13:10Speaker 3: It's weird, especially watching it, you know, But by the
- 13:13Speaker 3: same token, it's one of the things that's made us
- 13:16Speaker 3: closer and stronger, right, is that you know a lot
- 13:18Speaker 3: of times parents and kids they don't talk about certain things, right,
- 13:22Speaker 3: like you avoid certain conversations because they're uncomfortable. And one
- 13:26Speaker 3: of the things that this, you know, reality television of
- 13:29Speaker 3: this show has done is forced us to have conversations
- 13:32Speaker 3: that are uncomfortable. And when you have those forced conversations,
- 13:35Speaker 3: you actually get a lot closer with you know, with
- 13:37Speaker 3: with your kids, or with whoever the other person is. Right, Like,
- 13:40Speaker 3: it's been an absolute pleasure and so much fun to work,
- 13:43Speaker 3: you know, have the opportunity to work with my family,
- 13:45Speaker 3: my kids, and you know, it's it's a dream come true.
- 13:50Speaker 3: I mean, what can I tell you, But I think
- 13:51Speaker 3: that all through all of this uncomfort, Carlos comes a
- 13:55Speaker 3: lot of greatness to it, and it's made us that
- 13:59Speaker 3: much closer by having, you know, to watch that, because
- 14:02Speaker 3: when you watch reality television, you watch yourself.
- 14:05Speaker 4: You know.
- 14:05Speaker 3: One of the things that people don't understand is that
- 14:07Speaker 3: you're reflecting on yourself and you actually, for the first
- 14:09Speaker 3: time in your life, watch who other people see you
- 14:14Speaker 3: as being right. And that's why so much issues with
- 14:17Speaker 3: reality television, because you finally watch something you may not
- 14:21Speaker 3: like yourself right, like you think you like yourself, but
- 14:24Speaker 3: once you watch yourself on television, you actually realize a
- 14:27Speaker 3: whole lot a second I'm not a great person, right,
- 14:29Speaker 3: So it's been a lot of fun to watch it.
- 14:31Speaker 4: It's made us a lot closer. It's just been awesome.
- 14:34Speaker 2: No, it has been awesome.
- 14:35Speaker 1: And what I love about Buying Beverly Hills because I
- 14:37Speaker 1: love all of Netflix's real estate shows, It's very different
- 14:41Speaker 1: than Selling the OC and selling Sunset, because you know,
- 14:45Speaker 1: I like the fact that on Buying Beverly Hills, you know,
- 14:48Speaker 1: the focus primarily is on the cell of the home,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and obviously, you know there's always some level of drama
- 14:57Speaker 1: within in reality show.
- 14:59Speaker 2: But what I love about Buying Beverly.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Hills is it feels so real and so authentic and
- 15:05Speaker 1: so genuine. And I don't feel like anyone's playing up
- 15:08Speaker 1: for the cameras.
- 15:09Speaker 2: I don't feel like anyone is.
- 15:11Speaker 1: Trying to be a caricature of someone else or you know,
- 15:15Speaker 1: I'm this person on buying Beverly Hills, everyone seems to
- 15:18Speaker 1: be super genuine.
- 15:21Speaker 2: One of my favorites is Brandon.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Who I think also is the person you root for
- 15:26Speaker 1: because you want to see him win. What was it
- 15:28Speaker 1: like when you told your agents that they were going
- 15:32Speaker 1: to be a part of reality TV knowing that look
- 15:36Speaker 1: selling Sunset is a huge show. So did you all
- 15:42Speaker 1: feel the pressure to live up to that or did
- 15:44Speaker 1: you feel like, let's be ourselves and let's be the
- 15:47Speaker 1: best version we can be.
- 15:50Speaker 3: God, that's a full question, but you are correct, and
- 15:54Speaker 3: you know the cast was just excited to be ourselves.
- 15:57Speaker 3: You know, we were going to be authentic, We were
- 15:59Speaker 3: going to be true to ourselves. We made a conscious
- 16:01Speaker 3: decision to deliver a show that was not out there.
- 16:03Speaker 3: We didn't want to be selling OC or selling Sunset.
- 16:06Speaker 3: We didn't want to be million dollar listing. We wanted
- 16:08Speaker 3: to be ourselves. The agency has a really special culture.
- 16:11Speaker 3: It has really you know, we we we really thrive
- 16:14Speaker 3: on on this tight knit family environment and culture and
- 16:18Speaker 3: we help each other be successful. You know, you just
- 16:22Speaker 3: mentioned Brandon Graves. I mean, how can you not root
- 16:25Speaker 3: for this guy? Right, Like he's just so charismatic, such
- 16:28Speaker 3: a beautiful man working, you know, in a difficult you
- 16:31Speaker 3: know time, and you know, as a black man in
- 16:33Speaker 3: Beverty Hills, you know, struggling through that. Like you just
- 16:37Speaker 3: want him to fucking do it right, like you just
- 16:39Speaker 3: and and and that shows and I don't think any
- 16:43Speaker 3: other shows. I don't think any other television shows get
- 16:45Speaker 3: into that world and that reality and the struggles of
- 16:48Speaker 3: what that looks like. And so we really just wanted
- 16:51Speaker 3: to be real. We wanted to put it out there
- 16:54Speaker 3: and and and hope that people enjoy listening to that
- 16:58Speaker 3: and watching that. But we weren't trying to be what
- 17:01Speaker 3: everybody else is. We were not trying to be selling
- 17:04Speaker 3: Sunset or anybody else. We wanted to create our own
- 17:07Speaker 3: show that had its own personality. And we talked to
- 17:10Speaker 3: the cast and the rest of the agency, you know,
- 17:13Speaker 3: you know, prayed and hope that we would show a
- 17:15Speaker 3: little bit about what the agency culture was, and then
- 17:19Speaker 3: it would you know, we wouldn't all of a sudden
- 17:20Speaker 3: try to become something else in order to keep something.
- 17:22Speaker 3: You know, people entertained and all of a sudden, you know,
- 17:25Speaker 3: just be creating drama for the sake of drama. There's
- 17:27Speaker 3: enough drama in a daily life with you know, people's struggles,
- 17:31Speaker 3: you know, in terms of what they're doing, you know,
- 17:33Speaker 3: are they door knocking? You know, you know Brandon Graves,
- 17:37Speaker 3: you mentioned him, but he says it, you know, door
- 17:39Speaker 3: knocking like you know, he's got to be all suited up,
- 17:41Speaker 3: looking good, feeling good, you know, to go door knocking, right, Like,
- 17:44Speaker 3: that's not the same problem that somebody else has, right.
- 17:46Speaker 3: But you know, then you've got somebody like you know, Sonica,
- 17:50Speaker 3: you know, is does she have what it takes?
- 17:52Speaker 4: Is she driven enough? Right?
- 17:53Speaker 3: And then you have somebody else like Alexia who's got
- 17:56Speaker 3: you know, the family dynamic, know, the all of the
- 18:01Speaker 3: opportunities there, but does she have the drive to want
- 18:05Speaker 3: to do it? Because there's a lot of people, you know, kids,
- 18:09Speaker 3: children that have been given things on a silver platter,
- 18:12Speaker 3: that've given opportunities, but they don't take advantage of them.
- 18:15Speaker 4: They don't go do anything, they don't create anything.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Right, So for me, you know, watching you know, Alexia
- 18:20Speaker 3: want to do something amazing, fair A being so driven,
- 18:23Speaker 3: all of these kids, I mean, it's just all of
- 18:25Speaker 3: the dynamics are just so much fun and so real
- 18:28Speaker 3: and and like I said, we wanted to create a
- 18:30Speaker 3: show that was authentic to us and then pray and
- 18:32Speaker 3: hope that people liked watching it.
- 18:34Speaker 4: And it seems like people are really enjoying it.
- 18:36Speaker 3: So you know, I always say, in order to be great,
- 18:39Speaker 3: you have to dare to be bad, and we dare
- 18:42Speaker 3: to be who we are, and we dared to be bad,
- 18:45Speaker 3: and we dared to not you know, just look at
- 18:48Speaker 3: what else is successful.
- 18:49Speaker 4: We dared to do something different and it shows and
- 18:52Speaker 4: it's played well.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Yeah, no, And again, I just want to say thank
- 18:55Speaker 1: you for a ton of the story of a black
- 18:58Speaker 1: man desiring to be an agent in Beverly Hills, and
- 19:02Speaker 1: like you said earlier, and even what brand is him
- 19:05Speaker 1: on the show, door knocking is different for a black
- 19:09Speaker 1: man in Beverly Hills and it is for his white counterparts,
- 19:11Speaker 1: but it's subject matters like that, Mauricio, that Buying Beverly
- 19:16Speaker 1: Hills touches on and as a black man who will
- 19:20Speaker 1: get into real estate because you're going to be my
- 19:21Speaker 1: mentor so know that I appreciated that level of honesty
- 19:28Speaker 1: that was displayed because it goes to show you that
- 19:32Speaker 1: this show is real. And even the fact that you're raising,
- 19:35Speaker 1: obviously children in a world to where they have a
- 19:38Speaker 1: lot of access and privilege, but to see that your
- 19:42Speaker 1: daughters still want to be the best and that things
- 19:45Speaker 1: aren't handed to them. I just wanted to give you
- 19:47Speaker 1: all the props in the world for having Buying Beverly
- 19:50Speaker 1: Hills showcase the reality of these people's lives that, Yes we.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Could watch will.
- 19:55Speaker 1: Essay porn Ondie Long, and yes we could all stare
- 19:58Speaker 1: at Mauricio in his suits.
- 20:00Speaker 2: But it's also nice to know.
- 20:02Speaker 1: That you're getting something that's relatable to a massive audience.
- 20:06Speaker 2: I want to make sure that you understood that too.
- 20:08Speaker 3: Thank you Carlos for saying that, and that was so
- 20:10Speaker 3: important for us, and I'm glad that that came through.
- 20:12Speaker 4: So I'm thrilled that you saw it that way.
- 20:15Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
- 20:16Speaker 1: So before I let you go, you know, this podcast
- 20:19Speaker 1: is called Reality with the King, and I have a
- 20:22Speaker 1: lot of the Housewives universe on my podcast in addition
- 20:27Speaker 1: to my listeners, so it would be remiss.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Of me not to punk a.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Little fun at a few things. And I'll let you
- 20:34Speaker 1: go in your merry way. So how do you think.
- 20:39Speaker 1: I think it's hilarious where people made a nothing burger
- 20:44Speaker 1: out of you and Durt, which is your wife's best friend,
- 20:47Speaker 1: and saying there's something flirty going on there.
- 20:51Speaker 4: I laughed.
- 20:52Speaker 3: I mean when I heard about it, I remember my
- 20:53Speaker 3: wife walked in. I was in the showers, coming out
- 20:55Speaker 3: of the shower, and she told me about it, and
- 20:57Speaker 3: I just fucking laughed.
- 20:58Speaker 4: I mean, it's just you know, what do.
- 21:00Speaker 3: You I don't know what to say or what to
- 21:03Speaker 3: do there. You know, Peeking's one of my best friends.
- 21:07Speaker 3: We all hang out a ton together and sometimes you know,
- 21:10Speaker 3: if you if you can't laugh at your own stuff,
- 21:13Speaker 3: you're in trouble. If I'm going to get all serious
- 21:15Speaker 3: and all bent down of shape.
- 21:16Speaker 4: Over something like that, there's no way.
- 21:19Speaker 3: I survived twelve seasons on the Real Housewives of Beverly
- 21:21Speaker 3: Hills and uh, it just be impossible. So you've got
- 21:23Speaker 3: to have thick skin when you're on reality television.
- 21:26Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely no.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Look I said it was silly, and listen, we all
- 21:29Speaker 1: know that you guys are a great friendship there.
- 21:33Speaker 2: Obviously, this past season was very rough on Kyle.
- 21:35Speaker 1: Kathy Hilton was a part of it, and obviously, you
- 21:38Speaker 1: being a family man yourself, you saw your wife go
- 21:41Speaker 1: through a lot. A lot of people like myself are
- 21:43Speaker 1: big Kyle supporters, so we just want to know how
- 21:46Speaker 1: is she doing?
