- 0:07Speaker 1: I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
- 0:10Speaker 1: favorite shows from the Real house Boss in Atlanta, New
- 0:13Speaker 1: Jersey and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise
- 0:17Speaker 1: and Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from
- 0:22Speaker 1: the Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset,
- 0:27Speaker 1: in addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space
- 0:31Speaker 1: or scripted as well. Hey, rain drops on today's episode
- 0:38Speaker 1: of Reality with the King. We are getting into the
- 0:41Speaker 1: final day, day three of Bravo Con.
- 0:45Speaker 2: All right, So first thing first is this.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Teresa and her brother Joe Gorga did a joint red
- 0:53Speaker 3: carpet interview, and I know a lot of people are
- 0:57Speaker 3: speculating that Teresa and Joe only made up because their
- 1:03Speaker 3: job was on the line. Some people called it a
- 1:06Speaker 3: recession indicator. You know, they've been out of work for
- 1:11Speaker 3: over a year. My sources are telling me that there
- 1:18Speaker 3: isn't no immedia plans for Jersey to start filming.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Which I'm like, Lord Jesus, I'm miss Jersey.
- 1:28Speaker 3: But allegedly there are indicators that when it comes to Jersey,
- 1:35Speaker 3: Andy did say at Bravo Con that they're trying to
- 1:38Speaker 3: get casting right. I told you guys my wish list
- 1:44Speaker 3: who should come back that is Teresa, Dolores, Melissa, bring
- 1:50Speaker 3: back an O g Jacqueline or Danielle Stoub and give
- 1:54Speaker 3: me two new housewives and I think we'll be good.
- 1:58Speaker 3: But anyways, Teresa Joe gro on the red carpet together
- 2:01Speaker 3: and the journalist. The journalist asked them straight up, peop
- 2:07Speaker 3: already sent you two made up for the cameras, and
- 2:10Speaker 3: Teresa denied it.
- 2:11Speaker 2: She said, look, this is my brother and she explained
- 2:16Speaker 2: what happened, which was a gag to me.
- 2:18Speaker 3: So, as you want to know, Teresa and her daughter
- 2:22Speaker 3: Jia are on this Fox series called Special Forces, and
- 2:31Speaker 3: Teresa said that it was Jia who was telling her
- 2:35Speaker 3: mom about forgiveness, but she was telling her mom.
- 2:40Speaker 2: To forgive her father, Joe Judais.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Teresa said, when she got home, what Gia said about
- 2:49Speaker 3: forgiveness when it comes to her ex husband stuck with
- 2:51Speaker 3: her and it made her think about her brother, and
- 2:58Speaker 3: that's what propelled her to pick up the phone and
- 3:04Speaker 3: reach out to Joe Gorga. Joe Gorga did confirm that
- 3:11Speaker 3: it was Teresa, who initiated the reconciliation.
- 3:18Speaker 2: He gave her props for doing it.
- 3:20Speaker 3: He also said, if y'all know my sister, she doesn't
- 3:23Speaker 3: do anything she doesn't want to do. And this reunion,
- 3:28Speaker 3: this reconciliation, has nothing to do with the cameras. It
- 3:31Speaker 3: has everything to do with my sister reaching out for
- 3:37Speaker 3: solidarity when it comes to the family. Okay, and I
- 3:41Speaker 3: believe it. I've known Teresa since two thousand and eight,
- 3:46Speaker 3: and what I can say to you, nobody tells Teresa
- 3:50Speaker 3: what to do. And Teresa has always been big on family.
- 3:54Speaker 3: So I believe one hundred percent of that. And you
- 3:57Speaker 3: guys have to You have to see the chemistry between them.
- 4:00Speaker 3: It was sort of like nothing ever happened. They were laughing,
- 4:05Speaker 3: they were hugging each other. It wasn't take her phony
- 4:09Speaker 3: that looked no shee. If that was Melissa Teresa on
- 4:11Speaker 3: the red carpet, laughing, hugging each other, then yes, I
- 4:14Speaker 3: would say, uh, you're laying on too thick. But Teresa
- 4:21Speaker 3: loves her brother, and she reminisced on the fact that
- 4:25Speaker 3: they were so close as kids that other people would
- 4:28Speaker 3: be jealous of their relationship because they were so close,
- 4:32Speaker 3: and look, it's.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Only the two of them. It's only the two of them.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Their parents had two kids, those two, so they grew
- 4:39Speaker 3: up as best friends, so it was lovely to.
- 4:41Speaker 2: See them reunite.
- 4:44Speaker 3: The journalists did ask them what happens if you two
- 4:47Speaker 3: aren't on the show anymore, or if one person gets chosen.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Teresa said, obviously, I would love to come back. I
- 4:55Speaker 3: would love to come back with him. If that doesn't happen,
- 4:58Speaker 3: that's fine. I got my brother back anyway. And she
- 5:02Speaker 3: also said that if Joe Gorga and Melissa goes back
- 5:05Speaker 3: to the show and she's not asked back, she will
- 5:09Speaker 3: not be upset because again.
- 5:11Speaker 2: At the end of the day, she has her brother
- 5:15Speaker 2: back and that she's fine with it. I believe that too.
- 5:23Speaker 3: Now, look, I think it'd be crazy not to have
- 5:26Speaker 3: Teresa back, and at this point, look, I think it'd
- 5:28Speaker 3: be crazy enough to have Melissa back.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I know you guys are gaggy, which I think.
- 5:32Speaker 3: I don't like Melissa and I actually think she's fine.
- 5:39Speaker 2: But what I will say is.
- 5:43Speaker 3: I would love to see Melissa back on the show
- 5:47Speaker 3: with Teresa. And for me, it's sort of like this.
- 5:52Speaker 3: In my opinion, Melissa and Teresa will always have like
- 5:56Speaker 3: this interesting dynamic right where it's sort of like Kim
- 6:02Speaker 3: and Nini. You know how back in the day, every
- 6:05Speaker 3: season Kim and Nini would start off as the best
- 6:08Speaker 3: of friends, and towards the end of the season, something
- 6:11Speaker 3: would happen and they.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Would fall out.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Now, look, I'm not wishing for a fallout between Teresa
- 6:16Speaker 3: and Melissa.
- 6:17Speaker 2: We don't want that.
- 6:18Speaker 3: But we know that they're just not always going to
- 6:21Speaker 3: agree on something, and I think that's fine as family.
- 6:24Speaker 3: But I think they have the tools to reset and
- 6:27Speaker 3: be like, look, we're not going to go back down
- 6:29Speaker 3: to the wrong road. Hey, Portsie, We're not going back
- 6:33Speaker 3: down the wrong road. And I think that's what will
- 6:37Speaker 3: be different. I don't think they'll go to a dark place.
- 6:40Speaker 3: Joe Gorga even said that him and Louie are fine.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Joe Gorga said that he always liked Louis, he never
- 6:46Speaker 2: had a problem with him.
- 6:48Speaker 3: So with that being said, I would love to see
- 6:52Speaker 3: that the foundation of Jersey's family and no shade, I'm
- 6:56Speaker 3: not interested in seeing another family on that show that
- 7:00Speaker 3: I have to get used to unless they're so dynamic
- 7:03Speaker 3: that it's like shocking. But I think when it comes
- 7:07Speaker 3: to Jersey, Teresa is the face of the show. And
- 7:12Speaker 3: you guys want a gag when I say this.
- 7:14Speaker 2: And look, the second face of the program would be
- 7:20Speaker 2: the Gorga family.
- 7:22Speaker 3: It is what it is. It is what it is,
- 7:25Speaker 3: so look, I'm advocating for that. Speaking of getting to
- 7:30Speaker 3: know new families, Bravo Khan, Bravo Khan revealed the Road
- 7:38Speaker 3: Island trailer. So as you all know, the Real Housewats
- 7:40Speaker 3: of Rhode Island is the latest franchise under the Real
- 7:46Speaker 3: Housewives banner.
- 7:47Speaker 2: They show the trailer. Dolores is in it.
- 7:50Speaker 3: I will say this, the trailer looked good. It looked
- 7:54Speaker 3: really good. They are rich.
- 7:58Speaker 2: The houses look like castles. They are rich.
- 8:04Speaker 3: My opinion is Bravo is going to wait and see
- 8:08Speaker 3: how Rhode Island does as an indicator what they will
- 8:16Speaker 3: do with Jersey. Jersey obviously is a recognizable brand when
- 8:21Speaker 3: it comes to advertisers, Teresa is.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Teresa is the.
- 8:27Speaker 3: Mount Rushmore of Housewives. Advertisers love Teresa. You can bet
- 8:32Speaker 3: on Teresa. Right.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Although Rhode Island looks good, we have to.
- 8:38Speaker 3: See the season because look, it's easy to do a
- 8:40Speaker 3: good trailer but we have to see if we're going
- 8:43Speaker 3: to marvel at their story, lives, their relationships, so that
- 8:46Speaker 3: remains to be seen.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Not only that they all looklike I.
- 8:50Speaker 3: Feel like I was watching a TLC show by quadruplets.
- 8:53Speaker 3: They all look like twins and siblings. They all have
- 8:57Speaker 3: the same look to me, So it's sort of like,
- 9:00Speaker 3: how remember how we all thought Meredith and Lisa were
- 9:03Speaker 3: the same person when Salt Lake City first happened, and
- 9:07Speaker 3: we were like, we cannot tell Lisa and Meredith apart.
- 9:11Speaker 3: That's longer the case. But listen, we'll see what happens
- 9:16Speaker 3: with Rolle Island. I'm looking forward to it. Like I said,
- 9:18Speaker 3: the trailer was good, but we want Jersey back. But
- 9:22Speaker 3: most importantly, I'm happy that a brother and sister were
- 9:27Speaker 3: able to reunite, and I'm happy that Jia is the
- 9:32Speaker 3: reason for it happening and that Teresa made the first move.
- 9:38Speaker 2: So shout out to Teresa Agia.
- 9:46Speaker 3: All Right, speaking of another news show, there is going
- 9:50Speaker 3: to be a Real Housewives Ultimate Road Trip.
- 9:55Speaker 2: So look, as you all know, there were two or
- 10:02Speaker 2: was it three? I think two?
- 10:06Speaker 3: There were two installments of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip,
- 10:12Speaker 3: and the third one that was in Morocco, you're never
- 10:19Speaker 3: going to see again in my opinion. So that's the
- 10:23Speaker 3: one that had Vicky pedra Iba, Marcel Gretchen, Camille Grammer,
- 10:31Speaker 3: Caroline Manzo and Brandy Glambelle. As we all know, Caroline
- 10:39Speaker 3: Manzoe accused Brandy Glambelle of sexual assault. Okay, she accused
- 10:46Speaker 3: of it, that's something allegedly happened and Morocco. Caroline Manze
- 10:52Speaker 3: has since filed a lawsuit and as of today, Baby,
- 11:02Speaker 3: that astallment has not made air, and I don't think
- 11:05Speaker 3: it's ever gonna make air. I think when it comes
- 11:09Speaker 3: to these housewives living in a house together, where they're
- 11:16Speaker 3: around each other overnight and there's alcohol involved and all
- 11:20Speaker 3: that stuff, I just think there's a liability at this point.
- 11:25Speaker 3: I think it's a huge liability. And I think that's
- 11:28Speaker 3: the reason why we will never get another Ultimate Girls Trip.
- 11:33Speaker 2: Because you can't. It's too risky. It's way too risky.
- 11:37Speaker 3: And what they have decided to do was instead do
- 11:42Speaker 3: the Real Housewives Ultimate Road Trip, so not Girls Trip,
- 11:46Speaker 3: a road trip and is to celebrate twenty years.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Of the franchise.
- 11:55Speaker 3: Okay, that's good, all right, So would that being said,
- 12:00Speaker 3: let's get into the details. So it was announced yesterday
- 12:07Speaker 3: and what the show is. It's The Real Housewives Ultimate
- 12:12Speaker 3: road Trip, which is the working title. Commemorates two decades
- 12:17Speaker 3: of unforgettable moments, connection and legacy while ushering in the
- 12:24Speaker 3: next era of Housewives. This series will debut on Bravo
- 12:28Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six, with episodes available to stream the
- 12:34Speaker 3: next day on Peacock. For instance, Berwick, who is the
- 12:42Speaker 3: chairman of Roblin Peacock Unscripted, said that the show is
- 12:47Speaker 3: a love letter to the women who turned a reality
- 12:51Speaker 3: television show into a cultural phenomenon and the fans who
- 12:55Speaker 3: have been there for every laugh, gas toast and table turn.
- 13:02Speaker 3: So in this special even series, a group of beloved
- 13:06Speaker 3: Housewives from across the years embarked on a once in
- 13:11Speaker 3: a lifetime adventure, making their way through some of the
- 13:15Speaker 3: most memorable locations in the franchise history, starting where it
- 13:20Speaker 3: all began in Orange County and culminating in an epic
- 13:25Speaker 3: East Coast grand finale. Each stop will feature appearances by
- 13:29Speaker 3: fan favorites from different cities to pay tribute to the past,
- 13:35Speaker 3: embrace the President, and look toward the many miles still ahead.
- 13:41Speaker 3: Along the way, viewers can expect nostalgic reunions, heartfelt revelations,
- 13:46Speaker 3: effortless humor, and the larger than life dynamics that only
- 13:50Speaker 3: Housewives can deliver. So look, I think that's going to
- 13:57Speaker 3: be amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing. I think it's such
- 14:02Speaker 3: a great idea. I love it. I love it, I
- 14:05Speaker 3: love it. Let's talk about who should be on the
- 14:12Speaker 3: show now. So I think it should be og Housewives.
- 14:20Speaker 3: I would love to see Niani and Kim a part
- 14:22Speaker 3: of this. Yes, So back in the day, day day, Okay,
- 14:35Speaker 3: do y'all remember how.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Niini and Kim. So this is a funny story.
- 14:42Speaker 3: Nini and Kim years ago, years ago, had a straight
- 14:47Speaker 3: to series offer series commitment to do a road trip show.
- 14:56Speaker 3: It was NIEI and Kim on the road visiting different
- 15:00Speaker 3: like cities and shit. I believe allegedly, this is what
- 15:09Speaker 3: I heard, allegedly, Allegedly allegedly they were going to get
- 15:13Speaker 3: paid a million dollars per episode. Now per episode, they're
- 15:16Speaker 3: gonna say that that's crazy, So that's not true, not
- 15:22Speaker 3: per episode, but I want to say it was maybe
- 15:26Speaker 3: a million dollars each to do it.
- 15:28Speaker 2: There we go.
- 15:28Speaker 3: That sounds much more doable. And this was at the
- 15:31Speaker 3: height of Nannie and Kim's fame on Bravo. Do you
- 15:37Speaker 3: all remember this? Okay, So it's a road trip show
- 15:42Speaker 3: and they even did an announcement and everything. So the
- 15:48Speaker 3: show was called Kneannie and Kim The Road to Riches
- 15:56Speaker 3: in twenty fifteen, which would have document to a road
- 16:00Speaker 3: trip from Atlanta to Los Angeles. However, the series was
- 16:07Speaker 3: never filmed or aired because allegedly now I do believe
- 16:15Speaker 3: we have this on tape, but I'll just say allegedly
- 16:17Speaker 3: for the sake of it, because allegedly Nini decided not
- 16:22Speaker 3: to do the show.
- 16:23Speaker 4: She had a change of heart.
- 16:26Speaker 3: Because again, that was their relationship at the time. There
- 16:30Speaker 3: was up and down, up and down, up and down,
- 16:33Speaker 3: So that's what happened. It would be super iconic if
- 16:38Speaker 3: we can get Nienie and Kim back on the show.
- 16:41Speaker 3: I want to see them back. I think this would
- 16:45Speaker 3: be an amazing way of not only getting Niini back
- 16:49Speaker 3: on the network, I think it's a way for US
- 16:54Speaker 3: fans to really see two force multipliers take what they
- 17:00Speaker 3: were going to do in twenty fifteen and ten years later,
- 17:06Speaker 3: do it. I'm talking thinking about the iconic Okay, so
- 17:14Speaker 3: my vote is for them to do it. I'm gonna
- 17:19Speaker 3: care who else you got to see an Oprah Agail
- 17:23Speaker 3: style road trip show with the Oprah and Gail a Bravo.
- 17:33Speaker 3: I'm gonna care who you have around them. I need
- 17:36Speaker 3: Meeani and Kim on.
- 17:37Speaker 4: The show.
- 17:39Speaker 3: Because, just like I talked about with Teresa and Melissa,
- 17:44Speaker 3: at the end of the day, no matter what happens,
- 17:50Speaker 3: when you see Meni and Kim together, something is bound
- 17:55Speaker 3: to happen. And that ladies jumped to make Gays and
- 18:00Speaker 3: Days is going to be compelling television. So that is
- 18:04Speaker 3: what I want to see. Okay, I want to see
- 18:07Speaker 3: that again. Don't care who you have around them, give
- 18:11Speaker 3: me Kim and Nini.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Speaking of Atlanta Housewives, huge congratulations to Candy Burris who won.
- 18:29Speaker 2: I want to make sure I get the.
- 18:30Speaker 3: The title right of the awards she won. So Candy
- 18:38Speaker 3: Birds receives the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Bravos So
- 18:44Speaker 3: that happened during Bravo Weekend. Cynthia Belly presented her the award.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Her daughter, Raley Burris, was there standing next to her.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Raley Burris, as you know, is one of the stars
- 18:59Speaker 3: of Next Gen. NYC Phedra and Porsche and Kim Zoe's
- 19:06Speaker 3: Jack with the audience, and Candy gave an amazing speech. Okay,
- 19:14Speaker 3: the award is well deserved. Candy said, I did not
- 19:18Speaker 3: have the White Time Achievement Award on my twenty twenty
- 19:22Speaker 3: five beinge card, But here.
- 19:24Speaker 2: We are, and I'll take it. She also said that.
- 19:30Speaker 3: Bravo was gonna have me crying, laughing, arguing, singing, reading
- 19:34Speaker 3: bitches or checks that I did not expect.
- 19:39Speaker 2: She gave a shout out to her family.
- 19:44Speaker 3: She said that I was gonna be gone from the
- 19:46Speaker 3: Bravo Birds, but then the torch passed to my daughter Riley.
- 19:51Speaker 3: Y'all are filming season two of Next Gen, and I'm
- 19:53Speaker 3: so proud you took the torch, laid it on fire,
- 19:58Speaker 3: and brought that birds heat to a whole new franchise
- 20:02Speaker 3: and I am here for it, she cried. Thinking Andy,
- 20:10Speaker 3: she mentioned that it means so much that their relationship
- 20:13Speaker 3: is bigger than the show, and that she's able to
- 20:16Speaker 3: randomly text him and check in. How that means a
- 20:20Speaker 3: lot to her, and then she ended it by saying
- 20:23Speaker 3: that and to every woman I ever filmed our HOA with.
- 20:29Speaker 3: I see some of y'all here tonight, the good, the bad,
- 20:32Speaker 3: the shade, the laughs. We made history together, moments that
- 20:38Speaker 3: will live forever. We created iconic television. Great speech, amazing speech.
- 20:46Speaker 3: Phaedra was asked about that on the Red carpet. She
- 20:50Speaker 3: said that I'm a girl's girl, not a hater. So
- 20:55Speaker 3: congress to Candy, she said that I actually am the
- 20:58Speaker 3: one that told Candy that there was an opening season.
- 21:01Speaker 2: Two and told her she should do the show.
- 21:05Speaker 3: So she said, because of that, I feel like I'm
- 21:07Speaker 3: a part of it.
- 21:24Speaker 4: Okay.
- 21:27Speaker 3: So then the reporter did ask her if you know
- 21:32Speaker 3: she expected to be mentioned in Candy's.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Speech, and.
- 21:39Speaker 3: Candy then I mentioned anyone by name? She said, all
- 21:44Speaker 3: the housewives, right, So Phaedra said, I'm not looking for
- 21:49Speaker 3: anything special from her, and I'm sure she's not looking
- 21:53Speaker 3: for anything.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Special for me.
- 21:58Speaker 4: All right, And there you have it.
