S3 Ep95: To Preen Or Not To Preen: Friday, May 23rd, 2020

Good morning, Millennials.

Welcome back to the morning toast.

It is a nice enough Friday here in New York City, the beginning of a long weekend for a lot of us.

Hey, Claude, how you doing?

I'm doing okay.

Thank you so much for asking.

It is a happy and bright Friday morning here in New York City.

I have left my house, you know, in two weeks and whatever, you know, there's really nothing to say anymore.

No, there's nothing to say anymore, but but i'm excited that this weekend is different from all other weekends because it is a long weekend we're not doing a show on monday we should have been at camp toast right now and for that like my weekend will have this cloud over it of like the camp toastini vibes that aren't happening that are like happening in a parallel universe but not in this universe um but i'm excited for a three-day weekend in the queue like yeah no it's like A three-day weekend in the queue is like good, I guess, because like you don't have to like set an alarm or like spend your day zooming, but I don't know, something about it makes me even more sad knowing like the potential.

Cause if this was a regular three-day weekend, like I would be hitting the town.

Oh my God, we would have big, big plans.

Actually, we would have been at Camp Toast, which are the biggest plans of them all.

I know, that's really killing me.

And like now, my time hop is giving me so many like Camp Toast feels, and it's devastating.

Yeah, I hope that I'm able to get some sunshine this weekend, maybe another sunburn.

Like that would be so exciting.

It really, my sunburn has faded, but the memories have not.

And I'll never forget my time in the sun.

And I'd like to go back there.

Yeah, that's the thing about memories.

They never fade.

No, no, they don't.

Unless you're like me and they always fade because you don't remember anything.

Right.

Or, but like the good ones say.

I feel like now would be a good time for me to remind everyone that my comedy special is available for pre-order on iTunes.

It's available at the link in my bio on My Girl With No Job Instagram.

Thank you to everyone who has purchased it and left a review.

If you want to leave a review, that would be great.

It also would be a great time for me to remind remind you what today's word of the day is.

Oh, yes, please.

Preen, P-R-E-E-N, preeny vibes.

The definition being of a bird to groom with the bill, especially by rearranging the barbs and barbules of the feathers and by distributing oil from the Europigile gland.

Okay, so this Merriam-Webster word of the day.

Word of the day for Merriam-Webster is not going to work for us because these are too obscure of words.

Like there are still so many words that we don't know that are like actual real big words.

We don't need to be learning about birds of the feather flock together.

Okay, but that definition is like really

weird.

The other definitions make more sense.

It's to dress or to smooth oneself up, like to primp or to make oneself sleek.

So like, I don't know, I'm going to hit the town.

I might as well preen myself.

That doesn't sound nice.

Like,

if I'm going to say preen and I'm two letters in, I'm going to say primp.

No, totally.

Preen is like such an unnecessary word, but we don't, I don't argue with Merriam-Webster.

I don't know.

She's sometimes like, she's a funny one, but I feel as though we need to consider our sources.

I feel like the Merriam-Webster, it's like she's been doing word of the day for years now.

So she's like all out of words.

And we're just at the beginning of our word of the day.

So I feel like we can have more accessible words.

Okay, I'll look into an app up for today.

Let's at least try to get preen in there.

Well, I definitely preened myself up this morning because it's just, it's been like my, my current crutch in the queue is doing my hair lipstick makeup.

Like, it's just something to do.

I, I think I went about two months just foregoing my looks and

I got over it pretty fast.

Yeah, I have not gone over it.

That's like the one benefit of quarantine for me is I never really like doing my hair and makeup.

So not having to do it for Zoom makes me feel better.

But the fact that, like, you're now on this glam like moment, I'm sorry, you're now on this preened moment.

Um, it's a little annoying because it's just only highlighting how ugly I am and how frizzy my hair is, you know?

No, I mean, like, I disagree.

I think that you look great, and at least you're not like stuck with matte lipstick on at the end of this and having to like deal with that.

Um, that's true, having to deal with the consequences of a matte lipstick.

But to each their own cloud, and you know, it's just at the end of the day, it's whatever it takes to get you through the queue, no judgments.

This is a judgment-free zone.

Well, it's really not, but

who's judging you?

No, no, no, like not me.

Like, I spent this show like judging other people.

That's like the whole premise of the show.

Oh, I guess.

I guess.

Yeah.

Technically.

So for those who are tuning in, we are going to recap Real Housewise of New York today, which aired last night, and this week's episode of Real House Wise of Beverly Hills that was on Wednesday that we didn't get a chance to recap yesterday.

So those will be at the end of this show, in addition to delivering, you know, everything you need to know.

Yeah, and I think, I think it's time we can get right into it.

Let everyone head out on their long weekends you know full of fabulous barbecues fire pits pool parties whatever you guys are doing

those of you who don't live in new york city um

bless you so jealous of you okay so let's get into it without further ado here are the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast

i have nothing to say Great.

The first story is really some big music news.

It definitely framed how I got ready this morning because Rain on Me, Lady Gaga, and Ariana Grande unleash Adiva monsoon.

Their new song is out.

There's been a lot of hype.

We know the Lady Gaga record comes out soon.

I think it's next week.

But in the meantime, she dropped her Ariana collab and it's a big song and it doesn't disappoint in my opinion.

No, it doesn't disappoint by any means.

I just

thought it would be like a little better.

It's by no means a bad song.

I just have a very high bar for Lady Gaga, especially when she's in her element, like dance, club, rave music.

And to me, this, the song just lacked a little bit of like substance.

Like there was no real like drop.

I don't know.

I was just like waiting for something to happen.

It was still a good song and I'll jam out to it, but I just thought like, I just, I don't know, my expectations were a little high.

Yeah.

I really liked it.

I didn't really have expectations because I assumed that it was going to be overhyped and that there was no way that the Lady Gaga and Arianagani song that winds up dropping is going to be everything that I need it to be.

So, I kind of had leveled expectations.

And when I heard it, I was just so excited.

I think it's so good, but I've only listened to it a handful of times, so I don't know yet.

And this is how we felt about Stupid Love.

Like, I've listened to it a few times, it seems like a nice song.

I don't know how I'm going to live with it yet.

And Stupid Love, like, it's just so much better than I ever thought that it was after hearing it a few times.

So, I believe that this song will grow on me.

I think it's exciting.

I think now this music really symbolizes like a turning point in the queue where it's like, okay, now we are turning towards like dance and anthemic music.

Like, we are

going down a positive road.

Yeah,

it's very hard for me to evaluate music upon hearing a song for the first time.

Like, I feel like some of my favorite songs in the world I listened to and didn't like in the beginning.

Like, it's, I don't understand people who can listen to a song and be like, it's amazing, or it sucks.

Like, I don't know how I truly feel about a song until I have heard it like five or 10 times.

No, I completely agree.

And that's why I don't understand music critics who like do album reviews, you know, they get the album, they listen to it, and you just don't know a song until you know how sticky it is in your head.

Yeah, or like how it's built.

Like, I just, I hear a song and I'm listening, and like, I'm not entirely sure where the verse starts, where the chorus ends.

Like, you need to live with a song, especially an album.

I agree with album critics, like, that's the hardest job in the world.

And at the same time, like, just critics in general, like, art is so subjective.

So, like, what makes your opinion more valuable than mine?

Yeah.

And time,

it's so funny i i like i've been i was listening to reputation last yesterday and

when it came out when the whole album came out we loved the whole album there were some songs that were that we loved more than others but like the songs that i didn't like i think now are the best songs the ones that took me the most time to fall in love with even like look what you made me do at the time it was kind of a letdown because you know it builds and builds and builds and then it's like

not there

but the song's not about the chorus you know and it just takes some some time to develop that wisdom to appreciate the song for what it is no i mean and i don't want to discourage you from ever saying positive things about taylor swift but i don't think taylor swift has ever released a piece of music that isn't phenomenal except for look what you made me do like i think it's just not a good song but i think that there was meaning behind it for her and like she just needed to get the message out like she didn't really care like about anything else other than like what the words were saying so i'll allow it and i know some people like it.

I'm not saying that this is by any means like fact, I'm just saying my opinion.

Like, I think it is a bad song.

I just think it was ahead of its time.

I think we hadn't heard from her in a few years.

We were so like when we got a song from her, we didn't know what the reputation error was going to be.

We just came off 1989, and like that's what we got, like this angry sort of song.

And it took us years almost to like figure out this song.

And now, with those years in my back pocket, like, I think that song is so amazing.

I think the whole album is just like,

it's a, like a love, it's, it's a song about, it's an album about cancel culture.

Like, I can't think about it as anything else.

Like, I think it is so person into the times.

Like, she was a crusader against cancel culture before any of us even had the word cancel culture in our vocabulary.

No, I completely agree.

She is truly like an artiste and a, and a philosopher.

And I'm getting to a point in my life where I think that reputation might be my favorite album.

of a lot of people are having that experience.

I've been hearing that a lot within the fandom.

I'm so happy for you.

I love going on a journey with music.

It's like, because sometimes like certain albums, while they may be good, like you can't relate to them yet.

You're not at that point in your life or you're just in a different place.

But sometimes, like a lot of music, especially Taylor Swift, like her music is evergreen.

So you can go back in her catalog and like go back to something that you might not have understood when it happened, but like now you're living it and you can relate to it, you know?

Yeah,

it's just, it's so good.

And that's why, so that's where I'm at with music.

And even though I like this Lady Gaga Ariana Grande song, ask me in three weeks.

Totally.

Like, I love

that.

And then ask so well.

Like, I love it.

So well.

Ask me in three weeks and then ask me again in three years.

We'll do it.

I'll make a mark in my calendar.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Okay.

Are you ready for our next story?

It's a little development from Mary Kate Olson's divorce saga because she's headed to the Hamptons in a $325,000 000

rental

excuse me oh oh i'm sorry that made it seem like the car she was driving to the hamptons was a 325 000 rental i'm like i don't even know what kind of car you could rent for that but you can rent a house for that yes i'm sorry that was confusing and also like maybe she is in a 325 000 car but i know she's in a 325 000 house she is headed to a lux hamptons rental for the summer sources told page six she just lost an emergency petition for divorce and was seeking to continue using the couple's Hamptons home as well as their grandma's d apartment and an East 49th Street address.

They live on 49th Street.

That's not very like chic for a Mary Kate.

Like, she's a so-ho girl.

49th Street is just a random street, like, no matter where you are in New York City.

Like, some streets are random on the east side, but popping on the west side.

That's true.

But

49th is just

interesting.

But it also depends.

Like, is it, is she by the the un

or is she in house kitchen she's east 49th street so she's more un turtle bay vibes oh my god is she just like a post-grad millennial living in murray hill is mary kate olson a turtle bay queen wait this maybe it's just like a property that like they own like an investment property okay wait i'm sorry i skipped over the first half of the sentence well i said it but i didn't register it She was continuing using the, she was trying to use the couple's Hamptons home as well as their Grammer C apartment and an east 49th street address so they live in grammercy they have a place in turtle bay

still weird still weird but that's not where she's been like living her days commuting to the row office from 49th street and for those who may not be familiar with like the new york neighborhoods there's just certain neighborhoods that like where you live says a lot about you like that's why i feel like a lot of that doesn't translate in real houses of new york like if you don't get it why everyone's so annoyed with having to go below canal street like if you live uptown like you never go downtown and 49th street especially on the east side is lovely it's very residential it's very um it's actually quite uh affordable so it just is weird like most rich people in new york they live either like on the upper east side upper west side soho they have a big loft you know tribeca like certain areas are chic for celebrities 49th street turtle bay is very much like a post-grad after college like Murray Hill.

I'm sure you've heard of Murray Hill.

It's similar to Murray Hill.

It's not particularly like edgy or fabulous.

It's just like a nice place to live.

And when I think of Mary Kate Olson, I just don't think of her in Marie Hill.

But maybe because her husband's brother was some sort of politician, maybe they needed a place by the UN, maybe.

Yeah, I was thinking that too, because he was a diplomatic vibe.

Yeah, he was a political figure.

Yeah, that is just so interesting.

But no, I think she was primarily living in Gramercy and where like Theo living in the sack if you're watching on youtube theo is about to plop down in the sack he's finding his spot plop he went wow that was beautiful to watch

are you so proud like as mom

i mean he just continues to um shake up my world every single day like literally last night i took a shower with theo and we sat down on the tub and i cut his feet like he had so much hair he hasn't hasn't got a hair cut in three months my tub is now completely clogged literally with with dog hair i don't know how to get rid of it i can't call handyman ben took the shower this morning the show his dirty shower water is filled up to the top of the bathtub i'm

god that sucks speaking of hairy creatures though um a little redheads update because we talked about her hairy legs on this show ad nauseum dana got rid of her leg hair and i'm not going to say shaved because she actually naired

oh you know nair is a good product yes she was concerned that like a razor would just break in the face of her legs.

So she billy Nair.

And she, I know, I actually said she should use a billy razor, but she was adamant about using Nair and it really worked for her.

And I think now she's like converted to using Nair for everything, which is interesting.

When I was in high school, I like tried using Nair once.

It smelled so bad.

Like I remember, we used to share a bathroom.

I stuck up the whole house.

It's a good product, but there is a fatal flaw in the smell.

It's an interesting product because it's kind of a great idea but why don't more people use it

because i've heard a lot of people having like negative reactions to it like if you have any type of sensitivity when you're when it comes to your skin like you're breaking out and you're getting red dots and it's your legs feel like they're on fire that's me i have every sort of sensitivity when it comes to my skin Yeah, well, when I first used it, I was so self-conscious about my upper lip in like middle and high school and I wasn't allowed to do anything about it.

So I like secretly bought Nair at Dwayne Reed and like tried to nair my lip.

And I did get quite a burn from it because I left it on for too long.

So

now I just wax it all the time.

Oh, and I also have it right here.

I've got this little facial hair

remover.

It's from Amazon.

It's called the

something.

And it's fabulous.

I use it all over my face.

Nice.

Yeah.

Very nice.

Okay, cool.

Well, oh, this next story is some interesting news, some interesting like industry news

that I want to get your thoughts on.

Okay.

John Krasinski's show, Some Good News, sells to Viacom CBS following a massive bidding war.

So John Krasinski started this feel-good web series in the queue, and apparently it was for sale and there was a big bidding war.

And now it was sold to Viacom CBS.

And the series will have a multi-platform showcase across all the conglomerates brands through the actor, writer, producer, and direct, though the actor, writer, producer, and director will no longer host it.

So he won't be hosting the show anymore.

Yep.

But like the idea of some good news just like was this revolutionary idea that

is now sold.

I can't explain like why this bothers me so much, but it's just, I think if I were to even try to explain why these types of formats, like even Miley Cyrus is Bright Minded, which they all have good intentions.

I'm not saying any of these people are bad people.

They just set out to like make positive content and do good things with their platform.

And I, and I really respect and appreciate that.

But to me, it's just like,

stay in your own fucking lane.

It's like, there, do you know how many fucking huge digital shows there are that don't get bought by by Viacom and have been going on longer than just the quarantine?

Like, it's just, how is anyone in the digital space ever really supposed to get ahead when celebrities are just like taking over HBO Max?

She has a cooking show, Selena Gomez.

Like, it just, they're spreading themselves so thin, and it bothers me so much.

And I don't know if I'm just jealous, which is very, very possible, but it's just like, it seems so hypocritical to me where it's like, there's two types of celebrities.

There's like traditional celebrities and digital celebrities.

And I think for a while, and there still is, it's like, if you're a digital celebrity, it's like you're not really that A-list.

There's like, you're always a step below.

But now it's like these traditional stars are just coming in and taking our jobs.

Yeah.

I agree with what you're saying.

Something about this just like rings annoying to me.

And it's not even, it's not even a jealousy thing because like

it's just completely, even though I'm like advocating for a digital web series, which is technically what we do, like I'm just not thinking about ourselves at all.

But it is annoying.

Like he comes in, makes one show one day.

Like there are so many different digital shows.

And like, it just,

and there's this like massive bidding war as if he's reinvented the wheel.

As if he invented a web series.

Not to mention, it's not even the most original idea.

And I don't even know who had the first, you know, idea for a positive, but like to me, this sounds like a ripoff of the Instagram page Tank's Good News, which is so popular.

and was literally just built to put positive news out there.

Like there's so much negativity on the internet and people love it.

Like it's only been around for like one or two years, but it's grown.

It has millions of followers.

And to me, this seems like a fucking ripoff.

I completely agree.

When I first saw his show, I just thought of Tank's Good News.

And now

I agree.

Like he didn't invent a web series and he didn't invent like talking about good news.

So why is this such a revolutionary idea that media conglomerates are clamoring for?

No.

And you won't, the more that I think about it, the more that I realize this entire thing is a ripoff of like Tank Sinatra's entire brand.

Like he does all these videos, like he talks a lot about mental health.

He has a huge focus on like positive news.

And here comes John Krzeynski stealing Tank's Good News' job.

Yeah, well.

John Krzezynski won't be hosting it, which is like, wait, so then why did you buy it?

If like, it's not a new idea, it's just a famous host that people like, so you're not even going to use the famous host that people like.

So now you're just going off of this like old idea that you didn't have to buy his show to have this idea.

Um, right, maybe they will get Ting Sinatra to host it, and then all would be well.

Yeah, to me, this is like this whole story is just indicative of like how antiquated certain media companies are.

Like, they can't even be forward-thinking, and the only way they'll ever do something is like if the celebrities attached to it.

Like, and by the way, there are people who fucking love John Krasinski.

I don't even know if they would watch a show.

Like, I by the way, I hadn't even heard of SGN until TikTok made, they did a huge partnership with him and he was like the first video on TikTok, like the ad when you open the app.

So I hadn't even heard of it until then.

So TikTok invented John Krasinski is what you're saying.

Essentially, I wish I could put into more clear words, like why this bothers me so much.

And I'm so curious if this bothers other people as much as it bothers me.

Cause I can't really explain it.

It's just like, stay in, get away.

Like, get the fuck away.

Yeah, no, it bothers bothers me.

Um, ultimately, it's a show about good news, and I'm sure it'll be good.

Um,

but just there's something here that's like,

no, just get out, yeah, leave.

Listen to Jojo, leave, get out right now.

It's the end of SGN.

It's too late, and I can't wait for John to be gone.

Love.

Okay.

Just a little trail for you.

Are you ready for our next story because it's fucking hilarious?

Yes, ma'am.

A 25-year-old Sephora employee from California has been fielding calls and texts meant for Elon Musk for years now, having been given his old recycled cell phone number by AT ⁇ T.

Lindsay Tucker says she's received calls from the IRS, texts with blueprints for a bionic arm, and requests to buy a Tesla cyber truck.

She says her phone blows up every time Musk is in the news for doing something controversial, and she has to convince people she's not Elon Musk.

This is a hilarious story.

I love this story because you know what?

I've always wondered, like, I actually read a story the other day that the Kardashians are now in a process of getting a new phone number every week.

And it's like, where do those old phone numbers go?

Because phone numbers are only seven digits in certain areas after your area code.

So it's like, at some point, we will run out of phone numbers.

Yes, I guess.

But.

They're getting one every week.

I mean, I don't know if that's true.

I just read in like some blind.

Oh, because that seems like torture.

How are you going to reconnect with old friends?

Wish someone a happy birthday.

No, totally.

But I guess it's like it's a need to know basis.

Like if I need to wish you a happy birthday, you probably have my new phone number.

But every, who can keep up every week?

That seems extreme.

Maybe like every month or.

Yeah.

No, it's just, this is fascinating.

I've always wondered about it.

So

I wonder if I have anyone's like old phone number.

Well, no, your phone number is so old that it was probably its first phone number.

Yeah.

But it is interesting.

I mean, Elazin Musk is a great one to have, but I'm sure celebrities get new phones all the time.

Therefore, their old numbers go up for grabs.

And I'm sure people are just calling and calling.

Totally.

This is so interesting.

How did she get, how did this story come to be?

Like, how do people know this?

It's in NPR.

I don't know if she

found her, like, she came forward, or it's just.

Do you think that this is the first time we've ever reported from NPR?

No, I think I've accidentally like found my way here before because sometimes like I got this story from my newsletter and they link to NPR.

So sometimes if I get storied from my, yeah, if I get it from my newsletter, then I'll just go to their source.

Coop.

Really funny.

Okay, fifth and final story.

Kelly Rippa has been secretly been filming live while quarantined in the Caribbean.

While Ryan Seacress was forced to take off time due to suffering from exhaustion, his morning show co-host, Kelly Rippa, has been picking up the slack from a house in the Caribbean.

Page six is told.

Rippa and her husband and their three kids have secretly been quarantining away from their Manhattan home for the past few months.

She's been filming ABC's Live with Kelly and Ryan from an island hideaway.

Friends are staying at the family's NYC abode.

While Ripa and the family are away, Seacrest is filming from his LA home.

A source told them that the family was already in the Caribbean when the shelter-in-place order was issued in March.

They've made the family decision to stay put.

Despite her tropical location, Ripa has made it no secret that she's been struggling amid lockdown, tearing up on air as she told how she's missing her parents and dealing with unruly youngsters who won't hug me.

Would you like me to keep reading?

No, I just want to know what the point of the story is.

So she's been lying this whole time and like pretending that she's been doing live with Kelly from New York.

And is it just now coming to light that she's in the Caribbean?

And are people mad at her for being in the Caribbean?

This is the first time seeing that she's in the Caribbean.

I don't know that she's been lying and saying she's in New York.

She probably just like, she's on a couch and we don't know every crevice of her apartment.

So you just assume she's at home.

Turns out she's been in the Caribbean and they were there before the order, which is kind of funny to think about because I think when the shelter in place happened, so many people were like, oh my God, I wish I was on vacation.

I would just stay and just be on vacation.

But like three months later,

you just want to.

Just what happened to Jay Cutler and Kristen Cavalier.

You just want to be home.

Yeah.

No, totally.

I'm not entirely sure like what I'm supposed to take from this story, but what I have taken is that every time I read about Kelly Rippa, like I roll my eyes, like all of her news stories are so planted.

Like whoever's doing her her pr is fabulous because they get her in magazines all the time with the most irrelevant like kelly ripa and mark consuelas pretended to trick their daughter into thinking that they were getting divorced like there's always these like dumb stories and it's it's a great like uh mechanism to keep her relevant because she's in the news all the time but like i just like i'm over her like and i'm over her and her like like all the press that her and her husband like are always churning up for themselves like and now they use the kids for everything like kids graduating kids going prom kids this Like, I just, I don't care.

I barely, what's her name?

Kelly Rippa and Marcon Suelos' daughter just graduated college.

You'll never believe what Kelly wore at her graduation.

No, it's like, I barely care about Marcon Suelos and Kelly Rippa.

I don't care one iota about their children.

No, but like, I honestly, we need their publicists.

Like, they are everywhere.

But it's never everywhere.

Like, overexposure.

And like, then that's when like the public starts to resent people.

But people don't realize what's been going on yet.

They don't realize that they've been like infiltrated with Kelly Rippa mindless news.

No, I, but yeah, that's, that's what it is.

It's mindless.

Like I have never read a story about Kelly Rippa that was actually substantial or that really made me like know more about her.

To me, the most interesting thing she ever did was storm off of set and not return when Michael Strahan left.

And to me, that told me everything I need to know about her.

Yeah, I totally agree.

I completely agree.

It's just like, I know John Krusinski has like some good news.

Kelly Rippa should have a show, some mindless news.

SMN.

Yeah.

And networks can like clamor over it.

Like I, I have, I, there's nobody whose name appears and I scroll by faster than Kelly Rippa.

Like I just know that whatever the storyline is, it's not important.

It's not substantial.

It's not meaningful.

It's not thought-provoking.

Like it's just silliness.

Yeah.

I completely agree.

And I hate to tear down a fellow woman in media, but like you're not out of control.

But like, you're not saying anything negative about her.

Like you're just lovely.

Yeah.

She just like hardworking.

OT.

Yeah.

No, or her PR team.

Like someone is just out of control and they need to chill.

Yeah.

I agree.

Well, I'm jealous that they're in the Caribbean.

Me too.

Sounds lovely.

Should we dive into our TV recap segment?

Because I've got so many thoughts on Beverly Hills.

Yes, let's get right into Beverly Hills.

It was just a pleasure to watch.

Did you agree that it was just like the episode of like fabulousness for Erica?

Like her chicago thing her house tom girardi yes tom being there and like all of the girls like meeting tom and just listening to tom was really something special and you could tell that like they really all

were impressed by him not that they wouldn't be um but i also felt like a little silly like they all were like schoolgirls like sitting around the principals there No, it literally felt like when you go to your friend's house and like she's at her parents' house and like you have to wait in the lobby, like, I mean, in the living room, like for them.

And you're like, hi, Mrs.

Smith, how are are you?

I totally felt like that weird schoolgirl vibe for sure, but I just love Tom Girardi that I don't care.

Like, I just need more content of him.

And I did meet him to meet Erica's friends because I think Erica goes to him for a lot of advice and just like tells him what's going on with the women.

And he needs the context to like know Garcelle and Denise.

And Dr.

Theodore Friteman is in the background, and he's just like on a mission.

And I hope he gets where he needs to go.

I agree.

I absolutely love Erica's house.

Like, it's so glamorous.

It's just so not what you expect for Erica Jane, but it's so Erica Girardi.

And I didn't have a deep enough appreciation for the outside of her house before and like those two massive palm trees.

Like,

I just never really took stock of those palm trees.

And then last night, like, the palm trees were just like so fabulous to me.

Yeah, and the production really lit them up like from the bottom so that they could get a whole picture of the house in the dark.

It was quite stunning.

To me, like, nothing happened before the dinner party.

Like, it was just a lot of honestly silliness.

And I was getting a little bored

until they arrived at the dinner party because that was really everything of the sort.

Now, I'm struggling so hard because to me, like, I'm just on everyone's side except for Kyle and Sutton.

But Sutton really does have like a legitimate gripe with Dareed and Doreed won't let it go.

Yeah.

And now all, I felt bad for Sutton because all the women, like even Lisa was like, I didn't know what you were going to do.

Like it's making such a mountain out of a molehill.

And I actually feel bad for sutton like and lisa ran up being like at my daughter's event like one she didn't do any like a kyle said she didn't do anything so don't act like she did two like you don't invite the women of your cat of your crazy show cast to come to an event if you're honestly concerned that they might have a scene because they're always having a scene and that event for um Delilah and Amelia was like so lovely, but I'm pretty sure that they were the only people there.

So if they had like popped off, it wouldn't have affected anything.

And maybe their clothing line would have made some headlines because there was a real housewives fight.

Like honestly, at the end of the day, nothing happened.

And even if something had happened, it wouldn't have been the biggest deal of all time.

Like there are some events where these ladies like cannot fight.

Like it would be so rude and so embarrassing.

That was not one of those events.

I completely agree.

So on the

my AirPod fell out too today.

The AirPods are just flying.

The AirPods are like, we are done.

We are working too hard in quarantine.

My AirPods work like literally seven hours a day in the queue and they used to work like seven hours a week, maybe.

Oh my God, that was hard for me to bend down under my desk.

But what I was going to say was it's hard for me to choose sides here because Kyle is so on the right side of history when it comes to Sutton.

She's like the only one who can think clearly, but then she's also being like an animal to everyone.

And to me, she totally crossed the line and was so unforgivable when she literally just like lashed out at Erica, who was barely involved and was like, is that because you don't have any close friends?

Like, are you kidding me?

That is such like a season six narrative.

Yeah, I agree.

It's like using the one thing she shared with you once against her.

Not cool.

Right.

That's why it's so fucked up.

Like when you share something with someone and you're vulnerable and then they use it against you in a fight, like that's the most fucked up thing.

But you know what's bothering me?

And I'm not on Kyle's side.

I'm very much on like Doreet's side.

But Doreet keeps saying like, all we want is for Kyle to admit that she and Teddy have a different sort of relationship and different set of standards.

Okay.

So like say Kyle were to admit that.

What does that change?

I just don't get the point of this whole argument.

Like you want her to admit it so badly and then what?

Everything's going to be okay.

She can continue doing this with Teddy.

Like, what's the point almost?

Yeah.

No, like, what's the reason?

So, okay, she acknowledges it and then what?

Right.

Like, you, or do you want her to change how she behaves towards all of you and apply the same set of standards to Teddy that she does to you?

I understand maybe wanting that, but some friendships are just different and some people bother me in other ways that other people don't.

And like, that's just, of course,

seeing human.

But I think Dorit is re is responding to like Kyle just randomly coming for her at Teddy's event and really thinking like, maybe if we weren't at Teddy's event, like Kyle wouldn't have tried to put me on blast.

Or maybe if it was Teddy, the one who showed up late and glam, like she wouldn't have yelled at Teddy.

Like when she was being scrutinized, I'm sure she was just comparing like, why are you doing this to me?

You wouldn't do it to Teddy.

Yeah, but now the argument has just gone down this path of like, what are we?

really fighting about.

Oh, it's just so that you admit that you guys did a breathing exercise together and that you wouldn't do that with someone else.

Like

this big fight for that, it's getting off the rails a little bit.

Yeah, I'm curious why Denise is really gung-ho for Kyle this season.

It seems like they just got off on the wrong foot and they can't

get back.

And I under, like, honestly, I wouldn't, I would dislike Kyle too if she like came to my house and made fun of my eye sculpture and then like was calling me like fake for showing up in Glam when like everyone shows up in Glam.

Um, but it seems like she's really unhappy with Kyle, like she wants her out.

Yeah, it's,

I don't know the reasoning behind it yet.

And when the girls were in the car, and I absolutely love Garcelle, and I thought every point that she made was so on point.

When they were in the car and they were talking about Kyle, like, yes, it's not a nice thing to do.

It's the kind of like mean girly.

But when Garcelle, and like, we've gotten to this place when we watch TV shows, like it used to be like the meaner you were on a show, like you are our hero, like, you know, when they would go after Danielle Scow, but now 10 years later, it's like, you can't say these things about Danielle.

It's just like, it's just changed, which I think is for the good because we're getting to be nicer as people.

But when Garcell was like, yeah, we're being catty, but that's what you do with real girlfriends.

It's so true.

Like, that's what I do with my friends.

Like, if someone is being like a shitty friend or a bitch, like, or someone we don't know, like, yeah, we're going to fucking talk about it because we're real with each other.

And we just say how we're feeling.

We don't like filter everything that we say.

Yeah.

I mean, what Garcelle said about Kyle's outfit was mean because I didn't think it was so terrible, but Kyle had tweeted and deleted something.

Oh, what did she say?

And also, I wasn't talking about her making fun of Kyle's outfit because that's not nice.

I was talking more about them just talking about Kyle's behavior.

Like, she talks at us, not to us.

Like, they were just getting catty in the car, but like in a very real way.

And, like, that's what real friends sound like.

You leave a party and you talk about all the weird things that happened.

Of course.

Kyle said, Garcelle's snickering that my outfit is hideous while wearing stretchy purple knee-high boots with a pink suit dress, dot, dot, dot, that her stylist picked for her.

I thought Garcelle looked great.

I thought Garcelle looked great too.

And I loved her, um, the clips in her hair.

I just love Garcelle.

Like, I think maybe if she showed up in like a dress made of duty, I would think it was fabulous.

Like, I just love her, and I just think she's right.

Like, I'm just gonna be on, to me, she reminds me of Erica Jane.

Like, I just trust their moral code.

And I think that, like, whatever she, whatever side she ends up on, or whoever she ends up arguing with, like, I just believe in her that she knows what's right.

Yes, but I do need her to get in the mix a little more.

Like, I think all the ladies really like her and think she's fabulous, but she keeps getting personal with the viewers um you know in her home or with her friends but not with the ladies yet so i need these two worlds to come together and these things take time so i'm not i'm not in any rush but that is what she is missing from the cast because i haven't seen she's gotten a little deep with erica but i need her to get deeper with the cast

well i think her telling Kyle that she feels glazed over by Kyle was her um

was her trying to do that like trying to get more involved Like, I don't feel like you want to get to know me.

But at the same time, Kyle did tweet, like, we, we had only known each other at this point, like we only met a few times.

Like, so you can only get so far in a certain amount of time, but I agree.

Like, I need her to divulge more in the group.

Yes.

And now for Sutton, who is really, like, just finding a warm little spot in my heart.

I just.

I think she is a really nice woman and she says what she means and she's very sensitive, but I don't think that she's mean.

I think in the first few episodes when she was like doing the stuff with the seating cards and like just being sort of strange, like it wasn't any sort of

maliciousness at all.

Like she's just socially awkward.

And I, I will always relate to a socially awkward queen.

I agree.

And I think production like set her up a few times to say like cringy things about fashion and all that.

And they just, I, I, and I knew when it was happening that she was probably being stitched together poorly, but I just thought it was funny.

Now that I feel like I've gotten to know her, I feel like they definitely like set her up to be cringy in the beginning.

Yeah.

And I can forgive all of that.

I'm looking past it because now every time I see her, she's just like a different woman to me.

And even in the car when Teddy was like getting car sick, just Sutton's reactions, like she's just an interesting woman.

She doesn't say what I think someone's going to say.

And I appreciate her.

She's very different from all of the other women.

I agree.

I actually felt bad for Teddy.

I thought that like the way Kyle and Sutton reacted, like could have been a little bit more nurturing to a pregnant woman who's feeling nauseous.

Yeah.

I mean, I felt very much sympathetic for Teddy.

Like, these long.

They need to start, like, they need to break up Real Housewives of Beverly Hills into two casts, like the ones who live near each other and the ones who live across town near from each other, because like these long car rides are making me queasy.

Agreed.

Now let's talk about New York.

I just.

Well, I'm going to start on high because I did something different last night.

I watched New York while I repainted my nails and doing some, not giving all 100% of my focus to New York, like wanting it to change my life, but like doing 50-50 made the episode a lot better.

But it was also

a decent episode, right?

Or maybe that was just because I was doing my nails.

It's definitely better.

And it's because something's happening, or at least trying to happen, that I feel like has been necessary for a while.

And that's Dorinda being held accountable for being a horrible friend and saying some of the most unforgivable, Ramona said, jugular things.

And we didn't even get close to that because to me last night's episode was reflective of how unreasonable Dorinda is and like how she will never be held accountable for anything that she says but it was starting to happen like everyone kind of realizing like I've I had and by the way and it's it's funny because I'm out I'm I am now this season for the first time starting to like Dorinda because for the last few seasons I have just thought she's so unreasonable she drinks way too much she says the meanest most horrible things to people and kind of just gets this pass from everyone because she's like funny and cool but now it's like I'm actually only starting to like her now, but it seems like the group is kind of on to the fact.

Like she's really been the one for the last few seasons, like really stirring up the drama and saying some of the most mean, hurtful things.

Yeah, I would agree.

And I think Leah is really the perfect person because her and Dorina seem to have mutual respect.

I think Leah is the perfect person to bring a lot of this to light, especially in defense of Tinsley.

I enjoyed the Russian bathhouse.

That looked like so much fun.

Maybe everything just looks fun right now, but that ginger vodka like looked looked so good.

And it looked like a legit spa, like where you will go and get legit treatments.

I don't know.

I thought it looked cool.

No, I was literally dying at everyone's reaction to like the outside of it because it just looked like a place where you get like a happy ending.

And the inside was like better than what I thought.

And I was glad that everyone like dove headfirst into the experience.

But like, come on, Leah, production's paying for a day at the spa.

Let's go to the fucking Carlisle.

But I like that she got the ladies out of their element.

No, I don't.

Oh, I liked it.

I thought, and maybe it's just because it was Leah and I like everything that she does.

For sure.

You know, like, I'm not going to, this is her favorite spot.

It's my favorite spot too now.

What do you think about Ramona pulling Sonia aside and telling her she needs to lose weight?

Okay, obviously that is not acceptable, period.

But these women, I mean, this keeps happening.

These women are from like just a different time,

you know?

like even though they're some of them around the same age of as the real houses of Beverly Hills like the real houses of Beverly Hills are very much like

part of the culture.

You know, they're on social media.

Like they're very much in it.

Like they know the way that the world is now.

But like Ramona does not.

She lives in the time period that she

arrived in.

They all live in the past.

And in the past, maybe that was an acceptable thing to say to your girlfriend.

Right.

It is not.

When I heard it.

When I heard it, I was like, Ramona's going to get so much shit for this.

But I felt like she said it in the way that like your grandmother used to be like, oh, you put on a little lane.

Why didn't you have a salad?

Like, I, and I'm not by any means defending her, but to me, I agree.

They don't exist in this world.

They don't know that, like, those are things you don't fucking say.

No, and like they're, they're not even concerned with what are viewers going to think about this.

Like, and that's what kind of some most of the time makes the show so great.

They're legit just being their selves for better or for worse.

So obviously that is not a thing that is acceptable to say, period.

But these women just live in a different time period where things like that were things that you said.

And Sonia is my fucking favorite because she literally was in the hallway being like, I love myself.

I don't care if I'm fat, I'm skinny, I'm great no matter what.

And I'm like, yes, Sonia, same.

Love that.

But I feel like.

I don't know, the episode was so frustrating because there's not clear alliances.

Like everyone, like the fact that Sonia took Duranda's side for like the first time against Ramona was the weirdest thing ever.

But then it was like, why?

The episode, the series is like so dry.

Like they're desperate for content.

Why did we only see Sonia throwing up in the van in a flashback?

Yeah.

Oh, I don't know.

Also, Sonia made the decision early this season to take Dorinda's side no matter what because of what she's going through.

And I think it's like this association to like Richard and their past, and they both have that.

And I think she just has made the decision, like, whether it comes to Tinsley or even Ramona now, like, she's going to bat for Dorinda because she thinks that Dorinda needs it.

And I can respect that.

I really did like how Ramona, though, it went against her code,

stood up for Tinsley and said, Dorinda, you are being mean.

Like this is something I've been thinking about.

It's been bothering me.

Like you have a very mean streak.

And of course, Dorinda didn't take well to that, but I was really proud of Ramona just for doing, for saying the right thing, even though like she's always saying the wrong thing.

She's always saying the wrong thing.

And in a lot of ways, she's like the matriarch of the show.

She's the only OG and people respect her opinion.

And I was shocked that she took Tinsley's side.

I was shocked that she stood up for her at the bathhouse and then also again in her apartment.

And

I was glad that she like went outside and made amends with Dorinda and Sonia and brought them back because nobody needs like a divide like that.

But I just think Dorinda is so unreasonable.

Like she should just be given a pass.

And by the way, I am so sympathetic to like what people go through and how it changes them and affects them as friends.

And you can't always be the best friend to someone because you're going through your own shit.

Like I respect that, but to be so fucking mean and say some of the most vile things to Tinsley, like my gum lasts longer than your relationship.

You only do things on your back.

Like such fucking mean, vicious things.

I don't think that going through a breakup or trying to go through grief, that doesn't give you a path to say such mean things to people.

Yeah, I completely, completely agree.

Also, those mean things that Dorinda was saying to Ramona in her apartment, like you couldn't land a boulder, like, and that's when, like, when Ramona, and I think that she has a really thick skin because she dishes it out and she takes it.

Like, she says crazy shit and she receives crazy shit.

But, like, you just watched her demeanor change where she was so hurt.

Like, obviously, that's that's something that upsets her um and a friend would know that that's what and that's what she's saying dorinda goes for the jugular she knows what upsets you what your insecurities are and that's exactly what she did to ramona in her own apartment And that scene in the apartment was fucking wild.

It was giving me like season one vibes where they would just like have cheese and stand around and just fight with each other.

Now they like go to fabulous places to do it

because the show has just evolved.

But in the beginning, it was just like, come over, let's fight.

And with all those random ladies

conversation with all those random ladies standing around like it was just insane to watch

well that's what we have to talk about because as much as it was a better episode than usual it was completely ruined by elise she was bothering me so much in the hallway like following the cameras around come on let's go inside come on let's go out here why don't you guys take a breath shut up you're not the referee of this fight No, she kept like chiming in.

It's like, no, let the conversation go where it needs to go.

Like stay out of it.

I guess ultimately I'm glad she brought them from the hallway hallway into the apartment because like it would disturb the neighbors but like let the women be like that's what the show is you just put pla them down and let them be and she was just really interfering way too much and i need her to like i need the point in the season when they realize she's not a full-time cast member to come when they like stop including her and everything and i absolutely love that leah didn't invite her to the bathhouse Me too.

Does she go to Newport next week, Rhode Island?

I don't know.

I didn't see her there, but it doesn't mean she wasn't there.

It was a better episode than usual.

I don't know.

It was better.

And next week looks really good too.

Newport.

Yeah.

So I don't feel as disgruntled as I did last week.

So I will let this one just go to bed.

Yeah, me too.

It was a good week for television.

I just started a new book that like is so interesting looking at I'm enjoying it already.
