Speaker 1 Hello and welcome to Watch Our Crap Ends, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. I'm Ben Mandelker joining me today in his beautiful rose-colored glasses.
Speaker 1
Ronnie Caram. Hi, Ronnie.
How are you? Hello. How are you?
Speaker 1 How is the healing going? How's the bruising? Pretty good.
Speaker 1 I mean, it's still pretty bruised up hopefully i'm i think next week no matter what i'm gonna stop wearing these glasses but for now i look like i'm wearing bruised eye makeup
Speaker 1 you're um you're you're in you're in character for a role yeah um
Speaker 1 so today we are talking about the one and only orange county
Speaker 1 um
Speaker 1 starring katie janella who i think is supposed to be maybe a villain but for some reason well not not for too hard of a reason we're all rooting for her. I'm rooting for her, I should say.
Speaker 1 I won't speak for you, but I'm like, I'm totally team Katie on this show.
Speaker 1
I'm not really rooting for her. I'm just rooting against the people who are trying to persecute her.
I think her crimes are no worse than anyone else's on this show, and I stand by it.
Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. So while we get right into it, shall we? Oh, we should do a reminder.
Speaker 1 Our next Amazon Live is going to be this Monday, where we have an Amazon Live this Monday, and it'll be the following Monday.
Speaker 1 And then when we're going to ultimately settle into a schedule of one Monday will be Krappens on Demand, the next one, not Kraps on Demand,
Speaker 1
Crappy Hour. And then the other Monday will be Amazon Live.
So we'll alternate between them, but we're sort of working with a funky little schedule here for the time being.
Speaker 1
But please come join us because we had way too much fun. playing around on that thing.
So that was great. That's going to be at 4 o'clock on Monday.
Speaker 1
And then after that, we're going to actually have a crappy hour at 5.30. So I should say those are both West Coast timings.
Obviously, adjust for whichever time zone you are in.
Speaker 1 Join us for both, and we'll have a great
Speaker 1 afternoon. We're going to have fun, and it's going to be like, we're going to be so different by Monday because this weekend, I'm going to see Beyonce
Speaker 1 and we're going to see together the Backstreet Boys in Las Vegas. It's a Las Vegas Subafia.
Speaker 1
So I'm very happy. I forgot you're going to Cowboy Carter tomorrow.
Yes, tomorrow I'll be playing cowboy, my cowboy stuff already. I've been trying to grow my mustache or what.
Speaker 1
I don't even know what I'm going to do. I don't know.
I'm so excited.
Speaker 1
It's going to be the gayest weekend of all time. Beyonce followed by the Backstreet Boys.
I mean, that's some gay shit. I want to fly there on a penis.
Okay. You're going to be exhausted.
Speaker 1 Two concerts in a row. I don't know how you're going to.
Speaker 1
It's very unlikely. I can't imagine.
Yeah. It's very unlike me.
Public spaces and all, but I'm going. I can't wait.
Okay. So for now, we have Ridden Housewives of Orange County.
We got our taglines.
Speaker 1 I don't think,
Speaker 1 right? So I didn't put any,
Speaker 1 well, I guess we could just read it from there. I was going to play a game and say, like, try to guess who they are, but it's not like they're
Speaker 1 fun.
Speaker 1 But I like doing it in their voices. So
Speaker 1
what do you want to start with? You want to start or you want me to start? I'll start. Sure.
No, you start. Okay.
Speaker 1
You start. No, you start.
I don't care. Okay.
I know who's who. I'll start.
But I don't know who this one. Oh, I think I know.
This one's Jen first.
Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. Yes, Jen.
Speaker 1 Your game's great, by the way.
Speaker 1 Life can be.
Speaker 1 People were both like, who was this? That's Jen. I've announced who it is before we guess.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 1
Life can be hard, but like, so are my abs. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 For once, the only dogs in my life are golden retrievers.
Speaker 1 Heather saying, I may not be your cup of tea. No, bring you
Speaker 1
why this game is tricky. You already lost a point.
Okay, Ben lost a point. I lost a point.
Well, because Heather has been doing the espresso martini thing, but so has been Emily's also been.
Speaker 1
They both have decided to get really into espresso martinis this season, right? But I guess Emily more. Okay, sorry.
Let me redo. I may not be your cup of tea, but I'll bring you an espresso martini.
Speaker 1 Yes, you got that one correct. And also, um, in this game, for this actual clue, we are deciding this is why this person needs to finally get kicked off the show.
Speaker 1
When your entire line is about liking an espresso martini, I'm done with you, Emily. Get Emily off the show.
Okay. Next is,
Speaker 1 um,
Speaker 1 I love life in the hills, so I always take the high road.
Speaker 1
I own the high road. Um, I just want to say, well, that's obviously Heather DeBru.
I just also want to say we, we need to, before we go on to the next one, life can be hard, but so are my abs.
Speaker 1
Okay, I think that's an okay one from Jen. I don't love it.
I think she could do better. For once, the only dogs in my life are golden retrievers.
I think that's a decent one from Shannon.
Speaker 1
I may not be your cup of tea, but I'll bring you an espresso martini. That's a fail on Emily's front.
Yeah. And I think I love Life in the Hills, so I always take the high road.
Speaker 1
I actually like that one. Not that it's true, but I think that's good.
Like wordplay. Like, I love life in the hills.
I always take the high road.
Speaker 1 That's clever.
Speaker 1 I give clever points to that one. Okay.
Speaker 1 I may work in real estate, but that doesn't mean I'm buying what you're sealing.
Speaker 1 I think that's a good question. Has anybody bought what you're selling? Because I don't know.
Speaker 1 Has Gina sold any houses yet? Do we know? I think there's some way to find out. My guess is no.
Speaker 1 I'm going to say no,
Speaker 1
but I think this is a great line because it's a good wordplay. And I also believe that Gina is not buying anything.
Yeah, she's like,
Speaker 1 I can't afford that.
Speaker 1
Gina literally says this every time in a marshalls. I'm not buying what you're selling.
They're like, we know, you've been denied denied the credit card again. Yeah.
So I'm not buying what you sell.
Speaker 1
Okay, please leave. Get out of the line then.
Can I just get these jelly beans? No, you didn't get credit here. I'll pay cash.
No, you're not going to pay cash either. Your kid is running out.
Speaker 1
There's six children running out with jelly beans. Get them.
I feel mad.
Speaker 1 So then we have Katie's, which is, I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but my truth. But I don't know if you know about this.
Speaker 1 The original one was, I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but my truth, and then apologized for my truth because I lied a little bit about my truth. And
Speaker 1
I also lied about the lie. And the apology was actually a second apology because I didn't actually fully tell the truth the second time.
I wish that Katie's tagline was, How dare you?
Speaker 1 I will come for you. And that was Shannon's yelling at people backstage.
Speaker 1 I want
Speaker 1 Shannon.
Speaker 1 I want Katie's tagline to be, She loved her grilled cheese.
Speaker 1 yes like back in the day when they were just recorded actual snippets from the show instead of yeah i would like that audio yeah i love that would have been good she left her grilled cheese uh
Speaker 1 so then is um i'm taking a hard look in the mirror and my reflection is he'll still hot bitch
Speaker 1 Hottest house life in Orange County, bitch.
Speaker 1
Old. The bird.
I loved that they showed that bird who called Tamara old. That shit was funny.
It was a good call. I know.
Speaker 1
So Katie and Gina start at the nail tech. Gina is in a sad sweatsuit.
And
Speaker 1 also known as a standard Gina outfit.
Speaker 1 And there's actually like two fanny packs sewn together over her chest. I don't know.
Speaker 1 Yeah, she looks.
Speaker 1 I think
Speaker 1 they're going to get some sort of scalp treatment, whatever it is.
Speaker 1 I actually, this is the first thing in a long time where i'm like i kind of would like to do that not that i have like a big head of hair but i think i just want a big old head massage and this place looked like a great place to do it well they had the head massage thing you know the little yeah the little thing that looks like the the metal things like the kwan massage i love that yeah i love that it also looks like tamara's hand
Speaker 1 So they're there for a deep clean of the scalp. And Gina's like, well, I'll tell you what they're going to find in me.
Speaker 1 So romantic. you know they're gonna find like a lot of old shampoo yeah so look at this where we just made up and we're already going for it already going for the like deep sea scalp
Speaker 1 gina stop trying to rebrand your dandruff as as dry shampoo we know it's not dry shampoo it's dandruff okay we get it
Speaker 1 so katie's like i'll try anything these girls want to get them back on my side even a super expensive spade
Speaker 1 and she needs it
Speaker 1 yeah and uh gina's like you know i've accepted katie's apology but like trust has to be built up all the time and she has to buy me a lot of things
Speaker 1 that's really all it is she just is she just she just needs some free shit and then she'll be on your side again yeah that's how she is that's how she became friends with heather So Katie is saying that she's on an apology tour and she's just really glad that you didn't bring Emily to sneak up on me this time.
Speaker 1 She's like, oh yeah, sorry about that.
Speaker 1
So then we cut to Emily, who is talking to her dog, who's named after a fast food sandwich place, Togo. And she's like, Togo, go upstairs.
Mama's got a Togo in her purse. Oh, I'm a classic.
Speaker 1
She may also, the dog may be named after a country in Western Africa. You never know.
Emily is a very worldly person, but probably Emily named that after a damn sandwich shop, and we all know it.
Speaker 1 Or, or her favorite, uh, her favorite form form of eating dinner to go, please.
Speaker 1 So, uh, something the audience has been begging producers for, as far as Emily's concerned now, for six years
Speaker 1 for her. Samara comes over, she's like, hey, Patch, is that a dog or a coyote back there?
Speaker 1
It's a dog, I'm pastoring. She's a cattle dog.
She hides. I'm like, she doesn't hide.
She just has good taste.
Speaker 1 She's with the audience.
Speaker 1
Yeah, otherwise known as an audience dog. Okay.
yeah
Speaker 1 this is a nielsen dog would you please read it
Speaker 1 so uh the camera's like i'm just so tired tired from life
Speaker 1 life is just so hard yesterday pushed me over the edge over the edge
Speaker 1 yeah oh god life is so hard when you have to go to a free hot pot meal and get talked to by an angry blonde lady so Emily's like, yeah, what did you think when Gretchen came in?
Speaker 1 What do you think threw me over the edge of stupid bits? Emily, pay attention. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 I mean, I wanted to say you look like an episode of Todd Liz and Tiaras. I'm like, you realize you all look like that, right? You realize you all go to the same hairdresser.
Speaker 1 You all have the same hair.
Speaker 1
Gretchen really does, though. I mean, Tamara's not wrong on that.
And Emily's like, she's just really upset about your podcast.
Speaker 1 So we see a clip of Tamara showing the ladies a clip of, or playing a clip of her podcast, where she was saying, yeah, yeah, of course, they had lots of son, that's sad and stuff, but Michelle lost everything.
Speaker 1 Then Gretchen got a chunk of money and Michelle went through GoFundMe to pay for services. How fair is that? How fair is that?
Speaker 1 By the way, if that's true, that is not, that is, in fact, not fair fucking all that Slade would get to, you know,
Speaker 1 get away with this. If that's true.
Speaker 1 I don't know if I love the sentence by Tamara. Well, yes, Slade lost a son, but Michelle lost everything.
Speaker 1
Like, we're going gonna act, we're not gonna act like a son as a pillow or like a coupon that was discarded. Like, that's a major fucking deal.
But I don't know enough about this situation.
Speaker 1 By the way, don't worry about it. She's saying that Michelle lost a son, too, and she also lost everything because
Speaker 1
he's not paying his child. He's not paid for anything for the son was the allegation.
Yeah. I don't know.
I don't care. I don't think Tamara should butt it into it.
Speaker 1 And I don't think that Tamara is like, I don't think that Tamara can be like, oh my God, here comes Gretchen again, complaining about the same things for this past decade when tamara's the one inserting herself into something that she really should not be inserting herself into because it's like it deals with like real real shit and not like you know petty you know reality star shit
Speaker 1 yeah um yeah agreed you know it's like a kid dying let's just like stay away from that yeah agree and it's tamara yeah like even if the even if what she's saying is completely true and slayed is gross and all of that uh the messenger is tamara so you know yeah look in your own backyard, madame.
Speaker 1 Let them fight that battle, okay? You don't have to bring that into your TTs in a pod.
Speaker 1 So we cut back to the other ladies and Gina's like, yeah, that wasn't right at Tamra, but like Gretchen where he commented on Tamara's is like of Jordan's Facebook and I was like really, really hot on Tamara.
Speaker 1 I was like really hurt the one.
Speaker 1
She went to my daughter's Facebook. She's a miner.
She went to a miner's Facebook page. Emily's like, I didn't know she worked in the mines.
I thought mining was almost over and dead. Yeah, she did.
Speaker 1
She got black long now. She did that.
She commented. She was just down there trying to find some rare metals.
And Gretchen's writing comments on a Facebook page. What did she comment? Stop coughing.
Speaker 1 We're trying to read.
Speaker 1 Miner. Did she say something like, why are you bringing a bird down there anyway? It's not a good place for canaries.
Speaker 1 I mean, look, there's like moments, you know, oh, because Tamara's like, oh, can you imagine Katie doing that to Annabelle? But if Katie was texting, was commenting on Annabelle's stuff.
Speaker 1
Okay. She wasn't a five-year-old minor.
She was a like the 16-year-old.
Speaker 1
She wasn't that much of a minor. So what would you feel? How would you feel like if she was texting your newborn baby? She's actually trying to do the baby.
Oh, my God.
Speaker 1 I mean, I think whether she was a minor or not a minor, I actually don't think Gretchen should have written that comment either.
Speaker 1
I think it was just like, Gretchen, don't, just, don't be messy on the kids' Facebook page. Like, just don't do that.
Like,
Speaker 1 there you have so many better, you have better avenues for doing this. This is, you're, this is going to be a losing battle, no matter what.
Speaker 1 I think, you know, both of them just, Gretchen and Tamara are really out of control, but I'm on Team Gretchen on this one, I have to say.
Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, me too.
Speaker 1 So then, um, Emily's like, well, you know, there's moments it can be fun and lighthearted. And she goes, yeah, but then I get teamed up at Team Witchin.
Speaker 1 That's Emily's way of saying like, well, to be fair, I have actually commented on several minors' Facebook page. I just want to say, but I do it in the funny way.
Speaker 1
Gretchen didn't do it in the funny way. I just want to say that in case anyone wants to drag out any comments that I've written.
Yeah, true.
Speaker 1 So then we go back to the salon or whatever and or the spa and Jen's like,
Speaker 1 oh, no, no. Now we go to a restaurant.
Speaker 1
So Jen's going to go to a restaurant with Heather and I guess Shannon. And Heather is dressed, it looks like they're in a pub.
And Heather comes dressed in like a glitter
Speaker 1 blazer. Like, are you going to the Oscars, ma'am? Can you just have a casual lunch?
Speaker 1 I am wearing what the working people wear when they are off of their work and are no longer working and now are going to sit back and throw something back.
Speaker 1
And they wear glitter to celebrate the end of a workday. Hard work, it is.
Feet are sore. Anyway, hello, barkeep.
What does an espresso martini look like in these parts? Do you have gold leaf?
Speaker 1 Will there be diamonds on the side? A bump of caviar? Like, wow, it's just kahlua in a glass. Oh.
Speaker 1
And the waiter's like, don't worry, there's no dairy in this one. It's purely dark.
It's like, oh, good, good, good. I will try the espresso martini in these parts.
Speaker 1
I am such a Miranda, am I not? Oh, God, I love being with my girlfriends. So Shannon walks in.
She's like, well, everyone, I'm in leggings because I'm single.
Speaker 1 You wouldn't know it, though, because I'm about to bring in a parade of Love Hotel alumni. Oh,
Speaker 1 and then we find out that Katie has sent Shannon an apology text. She's very
Speaker 1
and uh she's hurting right now. She's hurting.
And Gina's like, yeah, it's violating. I mean, it's bad, but she'll get over it, you know, Shannon.
Speaker 1 Well, everyone, here assembled at ye old Bennigan's, well, she texted me, Katie, that is, and it set me off.
Speaker 1 It set me straight off because I told her not to say sorry, but I said just yesterday, I said, don't say sorry, but.
Speaker 1 Don't say sorry, but unless, of course, you have sat in some gum and you say, sorry, but i didn't mean to have a stick some gum in you anyway but she said she said no one heard the recording and i don't even give a fuck can i see that in this pub yes you may working people are here i don't give a fuck because i know someone heard it well i called alexis i called alexis i called alexis i called alexis hold on hold on anger face because my friend interacted with alexis bellino but retracted anger face because i realize you're on my side on this one okay continue she said that that she played it at a lunch with Jen and Katie and that it was played.
Speaker 1
It was played. And Jen's like, um, no, no, I, I don't remember that.
I was at a lunch and I don't remember this text ever being played. I just, it didn't happen.
Speaker 1 So Katie is like, Katie tells us, um, she's like, I've never been alone with Heather.
Speaker 1 I mean, Jen was definitely there, but which is funny, is that Katie suddenly, is that Katie saying, I did have a lunch with Alexis and Jen and I did play it there?
Speaker 1 Because I'm like, you're kind of in, your
Speaker 1 mood
Speaker 1 that's what she was saying but maybe she she didn't technically say that so maybe she just means she was there when I told her about it told her
Speaker 1 but you know Katie does lie all the time so I don't know I think Katie got together with them and played this thing thinking it was going to be hilarious and Jen doesn't want to be any part of it and Alexis decided not to use it so she doesn't get her ass sued for illegal recordings or something yeah and by the way I'm sure it was hilarious I'm sure it was a hilarious recording and let's not lose sight of that I would have loved to have heard that recording.
Speaker 1 Yeah, me too.
Speaker 1
Well, we have heard versions of it over the years because it's Shannon. So it was like Shannon does those five times a season at least.
So including at the end of this episode. So yes.
Speaker 1 And her hair is always pulled back into a ponytail every single time, too. Isn't that funny?
Speaker 1 She's got like a habit of like, you know, Shannon's ready to go to battle when she pulls her hair back and she comes in like, Andy, you, you are the worst person.
Speaker 2 It's time for a commercial.
Speaker 1 It's time for a Krappins commercial.

Speaker 1 So, uh, Heather's like, I believe Jen. She doesn't remember things.
Speaker 1 Jen is stupid. So I completely
Speaker 1 believe that she didn't hear it.
Speaker 1
I mean, she goes into Neiman Marcus's and buys dresses she can't even afford. And then I watch her do it.
She's so dumb. So they're like, Yeah, recording that audio of Shannon wasn't nice.
Speaker 1 And Heather's like, Oh, there is no coming back from that. There is no
Speaker 1
coming back. And Shannon says, Well, she said she didn't do it on video.
Like, that matters. Oh, there's no coming back.
Katie has crossed so many
Speaker 1 lines.
Speaker 1 So many lines.
Speaker 1
She has crossed as many lines as I have read in auditions over the years because I'm a working actress. Thank you very much.
So Jenny's Tamara. Tamara's crossed lines.
Tamara's not an actress.
Speaker 1 How dare you say that? And she's like, well, I'm not Tamara's keeper. Well, I'm not Katie's keeper, but you, do you just give her grace because you're in a safer space?
Speaker 1
Why do you give Tamara so much space? I don't know where this Jen came from. This is great.
I love Jen doing this.
Speaker 1 I love Jen reminding everyone who the real villain is here. It's not Katie doing
Speaker 1
an audio recording of Shannon having one of her five million meltdowns. It's Tamara.
And Heather's like, oh,
Speaker 1
hold on. Let me do a big flop of my hand.
Okay, my hand is to the right and let's flop it over to the left.
Speaker 1 I'm not scared. I'm not scared.
Speaker 1 Look,
Speaker 1 I just slammed junk to basketball into my espresso martini. I'm not scared.
Speaker 1 I'm not scared.
Speaker 1
Not scared. So when we go back to Tamara, she's like, I'm just held to a different standard than everybody else.
It's okay for Katie. But
Speaker 1
what I did last season, I'm the devil. I'm the devil.
Oh, they're baiting me. Ryan posted a suit about suing me.
And so if I say anything, he's going to sue me.
Speaker 1
And my lawyer said that's baiting, and I shouldn't be around him. So I'm not going to be around him.
No, just baby, don't slander him.
Speaker 1 You fucking crazy person.
Speaker 1 Is this when she is like, when she says I'm held to a different standard or whatever, at at one point they like move the screen over and they show Tamara putting on the FBI hat and basically like the FBI was at his house, whatever.
Speaker 1 There is honestly, I'm sorry, there is a massive difference between saying,
Speaker 1 hey, the FBI was at Ryan's house and he's like basically saying he's implicated in this scandal that's going on in the sports world versus Katie recording. a voice memo.
Speaker 1 I'm not saying that what Katie did was good. I'm not saying it's not violating, but you cannot put the, you can't act like Tamara's like, oh, it was just some small thing.
Speaker 1
She rear-ended a Jumba Juice truck. Like, it's not, like, it's like Tamara, what you did was, was a significant, significant thing.
This is a villainous act.
Speaker 1 Yeah, well, she does it all the time where she just kind of minimizes her own thing, you know? It's how she rolls. It's like, well, what I do, what I do.
Speaker 1 So then we go back to the other ladies and Heather's like, announcement, announcement, ding, ding, ding. I would like to ding on this very dark espresso martini that barkeep has made me.
Speaker 1 Ding, ding ding i'm having a birthday party for myself like oh well that's not really surprising jenna's like wow that was a month ago your birthday so well i don't like celebrating after the holidays because everyone's fat and gross and poor so i decided to have it in a month where people are less disgusting looking
Speaker 1
You know, in January, you know, that's when Wendy Malc's back on the sidewalk with her pam be like, give me some dollars. I spent everything on a toy for my child.
No one wants to see that.
Speaker 1 So I told Tamara I'm inviting Jen, but then she said her attorney said not to be around Ryan.
Speaker 1 So I'm not telling you I don't want you to un-invite Ryan, but maybe talk to Ryan and see if he has other things to do instead.
Speaker 1 And Jen's like, oh, oh, well, then you chose Tamara because that is my husband. And I had to sit there and argue.
Speaker 1 that my kids are in a safe house and that I wasn't raided by the FBI and I had to pay for lawyers that I couldn't afford because your friend, your friend said we were raided by the FBI.
Speaker 1 That woman has caused.
Speaker 1 Who is Jen right now?
Speaker 1
This was amazing. Where were we? It was so amazing.
Did this even come from? And I even gave her. I didn't even believe the amount of wavos to go against Heather like that.
I loved it. It was so good.
Speaker 1 I even gave her a pass about saying that Ryan was her husband because that's not true. But like when she's like, this woman has cost me so much pain and she doesn't want to come around by Ryan.
Speaker 1
Fuck her. And I was like, oh, okay.
All right. You're making the espresso martini mad.
Espresso martinis are kind of my thing. Wait, hold on one second.
What was that?
Speaker 1 Emma has a tagline about espresso martinis. I'm not standing for this.
Speaker 1
That woman caused so much pain. So she doesn't want to come to be around Ryan.
Well, fuck her.
Speaker 1
And then someone next to them is like, oh, you go, girl. And she's like, sorry.
She's sorry. She's like, I'm sorry.
But you know what? Uninvite me. Uninvite me.
Why do you side with her?
Speaker 1 Why do you lower yourself? I thought you took the high road. Oh, well, oh, oh well you were not supposed to know that was my line but that's fine just walk that's
Speaker 1 are you not lowering yourself by being with someone who videotaped a friend it's like you cannot
Speaker 1 you cannot make this equivalency that's not the scene you are the company you keep it's like well yes and i i suppose if that's true i guess i keep the company with drake he does live around the corner from me so thank you for that I have so many Grammys.
Speaker 1
Thank you. And you know what, Jen? If you judge me for my friendships, what does that say about you and yours? And she goes, that's not fair.
She goes, then I'll invite everyone.
Speaker 1
And may the chips fall where they may. Where they fall, the way they may.
Let them fall where they may. I don't care.
Speaker 1
Because we have maids that can pick up all the chips. Don't you worry.
If it's a Pringles, if it's a Ruffles, let it fall on the floor. That's what the working people are for.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 So Katie is at home with her sons and dads, and she is kind of an odd mom because she says things like this. Honey, do you want to come into the kitchen? We're eating dip.
Speaker 1 That's it.
Speaker 1 Fucking forest weight watchers dip. I'm getting dip.
Speaker 1 Kids, it's dip time.
Speaker 1
Last year, Gavin split the year with me and his dad, and now he's here, and I never see him. He's always gone.
Anyway, so they said this is kind of a boring scene because it's a Katie home scene.
Speaker 1 Like, who needs that? Nobody. So she's basically talking about how one of her sons still doesn't live with her, but one of her sons decided to come back and live.
Speaker 1 So now the other son wants to come live back here and she's going to feel like her family's all back together again.
Speaker 1 And she talks about the custody battle starting 11 years ago and how she had to give up custody because she had nothing after her divorce. She was cut off from everything.
Speaker 1 And so it made sense for her to let the kids stay in their home and go to school in their district because their life is basically more important.
Speaker 1 than hers, which, you know, the way she explains it is like, I basically made sacrifices for my kids' sake. And she's like, and for that to be used against me is shit.
Speaker 1 And I feel like a woman should uplift fellow women for what they survived, you know, and not tear them down for their mistakes or whatever. Yeah, I think that's a fair point.
Speaker 1 I think it's a very fair point. Yeah.
Speaker 1
And there was something else. I was confused.
She said her son, the one who's there, the older son, he'd spend his time in San Diego.
Speaker 1 Mad's house, because they had a house in San Diego, but then they also had a house in this OC. I know this was an issue on the reunion.
Speaker 1 I just just don't remember the details i think that's where the husband has a house right so the kids had the choice and so the kid chose to be in one place for the summers and one place for the school year but now he's choosing to come back to her for the school year but that leaves the other son in that leaves them separated
Speaker 1
so That's what we find out. Now we go to Emily and Shane and they're having a date.
They're going to go to, as far as I can tell, is this the West Coast opening of Club Club? Because
Speaker 1
it's a bowling alley and there's beverages and the lighting is cool. Is it Club Club? Did someone tell George McCann? You are onto something.
Well, this isn't a bowling alley and a club.
Speaker 1 This is a bowling alley and a tavern. It's called Tavern plus Bowl.
Speaker 1 Tavern.
Speaker 1 Bowler.
Speaker 1 Was it really called Tavern plus Bowl? Yeah. Tavern plus Bowl.
Speaker 1 Tavern plus Bowl.
Speaker 1
So part six. This dork brought his own bowling shoes.
And Shane's like, yes, yes, I did. I am a bowler, as I will prove to you.
Speaker 1 So it's going to be a three-couple date with Gina and Travis, Emily and Shane, and Shannon and Dun Dun Dun. Dun dun dun.
Speaker 1 Adam, the man. This is Adam from Love Hotel.
Speaker 1 A man who will love to wear a scarf at the least expected moment.
Speaker 1 So Shannon's like, well, he was on the Love Hotel and I eliminated him. Oh,
Speaker 1
but he's six years younger than me and he wants kids again. So that's not happening here.
That is not happening here.
Speaker 1 Well, I don't know why she broke up with Earl.
Speaker 1 Something I heard about that there was a storm system heading towards Georgia, but this one is a matching bowling shirt, and so they're both equally nuts. Now, call me crazy.
Speaker 1 I don't, it's, I don't think it's that crazy to wear a bowling shirt to bowling. I'm just gonna tell you, bowling shirts is a little weird.
Speaker 1 It's like, I feel like that's what like middle-aged couples do all the time. I would do it,
Speaker 1
but we'd wear a matching bowling shirt. I'm like, I'm middle-aged.
I'm excited.
Speaker 1 Who anything that happens, she's like, Isn't this insane? We're on TV right now.
Speaker 1 And then Gina's like, Oh, I'm gonna prove what a good friend I am to Shannon, so I'm gonna like really grill this guy. So, like, when was your last serious relationship?
Speaker 1 You a big drinker, you got a temper,
Speaker 1
you even killed, you even killed. Because I'm not gonna tolerate another John Jansen situation.
Like, I don't even care if I have to stay all night in Grella. I'm like, I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 1
You early birds, you late night. You got a schedule, you got a retirement plan.
Do you believe we landed on the moon? We didn't land on the moon
Speaker 1 after you make fun of someone. Do you feel bad? So then
Speaker 1 Travis is,
Speaker 1
he's like, or Trevor, Trevor, Travis, I always forget his name. He's like, he's like, honey, you're acting like our dog.
Sorry, I feel mad. So she pulls off and everything.
Speaker 1 And Shannon's like, look, okay, I intend to make it clear that I have nothing to say to Katie ever, ever again. Except for later in this episode when I will actually yell at her quite a bit of it.
Speaker 1 But anyway,
Speaker 1
oh, wow, I'm going to crash. I'm going to crash when I get home.
That's oh, no, Shane. Sorry, I was Shane.
That was my bad.
Speaker 1
Shane goes up to Shana goes, Oh my God, you're really gonna crash and you get home. Too soon, Shane.
Too soon. Shane, think about the words.
Think about the words.
Speaker 1 Shannon's like, Oh, this is just our first stop. We're going from here to the quiet lady, the quiet woman, and we've got lots of places to go.
Speaker 1 So we go to Jen, a Jen home scene, talking to her kid about sports. And he got in trouble because he's talking too much in PE.
Speaker 1 And Ryan loved that. That's that good for you.
Speaker 1 I didn't know you had to be silent in PE.
Speaker 1 I feel like PE, like, maybe it's like, okay, kids, this is how you climb the rope. And he guessed he was talking through that part.
Speaker 1 But I was like, I feel like PE is actually one of the louder classes where you can talk and whatnot.
Speaker 1
And it's also like run by. Is this called jumping yaks? No, it's not jumping yaks.
It's jumping jacks. Right.
So
Speaker 1 Ryan's like, you know, being a stepdad is hard.
Speaker 1
It's, you know, like, you know, because they already have a dad who doesn't even wear paint splatter on his denim jackets. And I just wish he was more hands-on.
And he's not.
Speaker 1
And, you know, they live on a roof, but everything's cool. Everything's totally cool.
You can see Ryan biting his tongue to be like, this fucking guy's a douchebag. I hate him.
Speaker 1 And this is for me, Ryan, is calling someone a douchebag. Yeah, Ryan's like, well, he's a terrible father, so I try to fill in when I can, but it sucks.
Speaker 1
So Dawson comes home and he's met a recruiter and he's joining the Marines. And Jen's like, no, he didn't even ask me.
The conversation was, I'm joining the Marines. So that's great.
Speaker 1 And so she's talking to him. She's like, so this is the path you want, honey? You're really sure? And he's like, yep.
Speaker 1
And he's like, yeah, you know, like the only thing is like they say like the hardest part is like the mental part. I just want like the training to hurry up.
I mean, isn't this kid?
Speaker 1 always like in trouble and stuff he's got another thing coming to him if he thinks this is the easy road dumb yeah if you think that like, uh, the train, he's like, I just want the train to hurry up.
Speaker 1 I'm like, I don't know much about being a soldier. I applaud the people who have gone down this path, but my feeling is that after the training is over, it's still going to be hard.
Speaker 1 I've never
Speaker 1 met a soldier or a family member of a soldier who's like, oh my God, thank God he took the easy route and became a soldier.
Speaker 1
Oh, God, it's a cakewalk. God, so, so pleasant being deployed.
So, um, so, but then here's what gets crazy. So it's just like a standard scene.
He's going to the Marines like, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1 And then Jen goes, oh, by the way, did you sign Harrison's school loan with your dad? And he's like, yeah. And you're like, what? And then
Speaker 1 she says, because I don't feel comfortable co-signing with your dad, but you did.
Speaker 1
And it turns out that Harrison, who is an older son, who was like 21 or something, needed like a school loan. And so the dad had Dawson, who's 18, co-sign on a school loan.
I was like,
Speaker 1 I was like, I wasn't even sure if I was really even hearing this or seeing this correctly at first. I was like, is that possible? Like someone,
Speaker 1
you're having the younger son who's still in high school. First of all, you're allowed to do that.
And then you're going to have the younger son who's still in high school co-sign on it, sign on it.
Speaker 1 I guess on spec that this kid was going into the Marines and was going to be earning a salary.
Speaker 1 That is shitty.
Speaker 1
That is so shitty and terrible. And so the girl didn't co-sign at all.
He just made the son do it? I'm so confused. I don't know.
Speaker 1 Did the dad and the son both co-sign? I don't understand why there's
Speaker 1 two. Because I thought, I took it at first that the dad had the son, because she said, I don't feel comfortable co-signing with your dad, but so he made you do it.
Speaker 1 Meaning that the dad co-signed and the son co-signed for the other son's loan. So does that mean now there's three people on the loan? Did the dad just
Speaker 1
need enough credit to do it himself? So he needed somebody. Like, I don't know.
I don't know. It must have been.
All I know is I would just never,
Speaker 1 like, never like make your son co-sign the loan for your other son. And then now, now Dawson is basically on the,
Speaker 1
he's on the hook for all this stuff. And they, you know, Ryan lays it all out.
Like, you have more debt than you have income coming in. That's going to show on this one if you want to buy stuff.
Speaker 1 And Dawson's like, yeah, that's cool. I was like, oh, this is so shitty.
Speaker 1 and ryan is basically at the end of the scene when dawson leaves ryan's like yeah i would never do that like that's i can't imagine i would put my kid in that spot yeah that's yeah
Speaker 1 that's so shitty yep so then heather goes out with tamara and um they go to this place with parrots all over the place for whatever reason madagascar there's a restaurant called madagascar it's a very global spot in orange county
Speaker 1
so tamara comes in she's like oh sit you again hey buddy. Oh, you're the mean one.
I remember you. You caught me old one here.
And I laughed.
Speaker 1 But then they actually show a clip from 2017 where she's coming in and you just hear, old. She's like, did you just call me old?
Speaker 1 Stupid mother. Call it like I see you.
Speaker 1 Bob, call it, like I see it, Bop.
Speaker 1
Bob, I'm Gochmarsi. Nice to meet you, Bob.
Oh, my God, everywhere. She's everywhere.
Speaker 1 So Heather's like,
Speaker 1
I want some champagne. But, but, barkeep, can we please have some regular wine glasses instead of champagne glasses? Thank you.
That's how we're doing it now. That's how we're doing it now.
Speaker 1 Tell the other boars. Tell the other boys.
Speaker 1
Oh, my goodness. God.
Wow, Tamara, you've been so calm lately. What's your secret? So she's like, life is so sad.
So she talks about therapy, but she talks about...
Speaker 1 Teddy and she's looking at videos with Teddy and she's like, and I'm in so many of those videos, videos, so many videos with Teddy.
Speaker 1 There was a feeling, I was like, are you low-key trying to jockey for position with Kyle? You're competing with Kyle Richards right now, aren't you?
Speaker 1 I feel like, I kind of feel like there's like an element where like Kyle gets all the credit for being Teddy's best friend. Like they just had a glamour, I think it was Glamour magazine.
Speaker 1 They had a whole spread about like with the two of them and everything for what Teddy's going through. And I feel like Tamara, I get the sense that Tamara's like, hello, I'm also her best friend.
Speaker 1 And I talk with her and work with her every single day of the week. And I'm getting no credit for this and Kyle Richards is stealing all their friend credit in this situation.
Speaker 1 You know, it's so hard everything going on with Teddy. I was going through the Instagram and thinking how I'm the friend who's on every single post.
Speaker 1
And I scrolled and I scrolled and I scrolled and I scrolled. And finally on page 18, I got to Kyle Richards.
And I thought, wow, Teddy could use more phone calls from her, probably.
Speaker 1
She happened, I'm looking at my childhood, Sydney. I'm crying all the time.
Oh, when did did you go to Sydney? Now that's my daughter, bitch. Oh, yes, I definitely paid attention.
Speaker 1 I can't wait to see you.
Speaker 1 She's the one who erased me. But I can see you.
Speaker 1
Sorry, hard to see you over all my hotline bling. I am the company that I keep.
Drake.
Speaker 1 So she's like, you are doing the work on yourself. It's like every time I see a maid vacuuming herself in my basement, I'm like, you are doing the work on yourself.
Speaker 1 I just love the image of a maid vacuuming herself.
Speaker 1 Good for you, putting in the work.
Speaker 1 Terry's like, why is there a maid vacuuming herself? I told her to do the work on herself.
Speaker 1 She took it literally.
Speaker 1
So Heather is really trying to sell this newfound version of Tamara to us. She's like, I have never seen Tamara go through so much emotionality.
She's so balanced. She's so thoughtful.
Speaker 1 And listen, Tamara, I'm talking to you now, not the audience. I told Jen, when are you going to give Tamara some grace? Aren't we sick of seeing Grace under fire?
Speaker 1
I'm not, because a very good actress named Heather Dubrow was on there. Where is that show anyway? Bring it back.
Heather under fire. Dubrow under fire.

Speaker 1 So Heather's like, and now you just hear
Speaker 1
over my dead body. Over my dead body.
Oh, that two cat has met Grace Butler. What's that her name?
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 1 I think her name is.
Speaker 1 I was going to say Rhett Butler, but that's the gone with the wind. Maybe that's Butler.
Speaker 1
Butler. Damn it.
What was her name? I don't know who she is. She didn't survive the 90s the way I did.
Speaker 1 But
Speaker 1 I'm sure she's had great fun auditioning for Brett Butler. Yeah.
Speaker 1 Played Grace Kelly.
Speaker 1 Under 5.
Speaker 1 Grace Kelly.
Speaker 1
Was her name Grace Kelly? I guess so. Yeah.
God, I really fucked myself up. Okay, the recap's over.
Speaker 1 I need time for my brain to heal from all the information I just learned about this early 90s sitcom.
Speaker 1 Anyway, as I was telling my dear friend, the lady with the blue eyeshadow on that Drew show,
Speaker 1
it's hard. It's very hard.
And we need to give Tamara some grace.
Speaker 1
Well, I started by telling her about not drinking champagne glasses out of flutes. I want her to make that mistake.
God bless her heart. She's got it hard enough over there.
Speaker 1 Drinking a lot of cream out of that espresso martini.
Speaker 1
Anyway, I don't like it. I brought up the party and I mentioned Ryan to Jen.
And Tamra's like, oh, yeah, just tell him not to bring him. My lawyer said so.
Speaker 1
Well, I told everyone to bring their significant others, so you know, it's starting a war. I told this person can bring someone, that comperson can bring someone.
Slam dunk into the table, you know.
Speaker 1
Pether is playing with fire here. And of course, she started it out by, Tamara, I just want to say how proud I am of you.
You've grown so much.
Speaker 1 Jen's boyfriend's coming to the party.
Speaker 1 Wait, did they get married? Oh, no, maybe they
Speaker 1
have a small ceremony? I don't remember. No, there's, maybe they want to have a small ceremony.
Did they get a... I don't think they eloped.
Speaker 1
I think that, like, remember that she was trying on wedding bikinis recently? Oh, right, right, right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
So, um, Tamara's like, is his friendship better than mine?
Speaker 1 This hurts hurts my feelings. And we all know what happens when my feelings get hurt.
Speaker 1
Listen, listen, it's gonna be a big party. You don't have to see her.
It's gonna be a lot of people. My friends, the Terlottis, who owned the winery, will be there.
Speaker 1
Richard Marks, we're letting him out at the basement. He'll sing some songs.
It'll be a chill dancing vibe. I mean, there'll be some upbeat jams by Michael Bouble, sure.
Speaker 1 But if you see Ryan, just ignore him. Easy as as pie.
Speaker 1
Oh, yeah. Well, I know for a fact that Eddie won't go to your party, because Eddie's not considered for that.
Oh, no.
Speaker 1 What are we going to do at a party without your protein fart fucking charisma bundled husband? Who cares if he's not going to come? What is Eddie
Speaker 1
anything? The life of the party, Eddie. God, it'll be so sad without him there.
Eddie judge. So we go to Terry and Heather.
Speaker 1
She is this where they're getting ready for the party, I think. So they're getting ready.
And Terry's like, so how much is this party party compared to the no-boo party? She's like, more.
Speaker 1 And he's like, well, how much? More? Two times, three times? I'll say four times. He's like, that was $45,000, Heather.
Speaker 1 Yeah, well, Richard Marks, breathing stem cells into Richard Marks doesn't come cheap.
Speaker 1 Luckily, Daisy Fuentes says she's going to chip in.
Speaker 1 So
Speaker 1 then we go to Jen and Ryan and Jen's like, I mean, if we see Hamera, just like no allegations talk.
Speaker 1 He's like, like, I'm not going to talk to her. Okay, good.
Speaker 1 So Ryan had knee surgery, so he's going to be hobbling around. This is someone who is desperate to be on camera is that he got knee surgery the day before, but he's still like, uh-uh, I'm going to go.
Speaker 1 I'm going to hobble around. I might permanently ruin my knee because I should be resting right now, but it'll be worth it to be on camera.
Speaker 1 A hoodie and a blazer at the same time. Yeah, so Katie's telling her hair person she wants to talk to Shannon, and Shen is telling her person, her hair person, she's absolutely not talking to Katie.
Speaker 1
But I am bringing Phil from the dating show, Love Island. I keep in contact with all of them.
I have a bench of friends. A bench.
Speaker 1 Tomorrow, I'm going to be bringing my new, sweet, adorable friend. His name is Ace Green, and he is very small, and he fits in my pocket, and he will be a great addition to whatever event we go to.
Speaker 1 I cannot wait.
Speaker 1 So Heather walks through her party and she's like, oh, do I feel an obligation to throw a good party? Yes. I have a champagne girl in a glass.
Speaker 1 I have people rolling joints because I'm Heather Dubrow, cool mom.
Speaker 1 I've got two guys writing poetry, sushi, sushi, caviar bombs, and yes, I also hired pro photographers to capture the event, not to be confused with paparazzi.
Speaker 1 Ah, God, isn't it great to be a cool person having rolled marijuana joints and poetry? God, I love being me.
Speaker 1 So Emily and Shane arrive, life of the party part two and emily's like the point of a birthday party is that you were birthed on this earth on a day this just feels so random
Speaker 1 yeah and some people celebrate christmas in june and heather celebrates her birthday whenever the fuck she wants i feel bad for anyone whose birthday really is today Well, I heard that Ryan had knee surgery, girls.
Speaker 1 I thought maybe he got a lesson. Doesn't want to come.
Speaker 1 Lummit, she's like, maybe some heavies showed up and like banged him in the knees, like the little hoodlummy is.
Speaker 1
Samley's like, Is Tamora coming? You don't know. It's like, I don't know, but we'll check every dumpster to see if she's hiding out.
So then Ryan shows up.
Speaker 1
Jen come, and Ryan's in a hoodie, which is super classy. But a blazer.
Say, classy parties, sir. Okay.
Speaker 1
Your knee was hurt, not your arms. Put on a decent shirt.
Okay.
Speaker 1 Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 1 And then Shannon shows up with none other than Bella. Phil Phil from Belair.
Speaker 1 Hello, I'm Phil. I'm from Belair.
Speaker 1
Phil is horrified. He's like, I didn't know there was a place south of Santa Monica Boulevard.
What is this land down here? Orange County? What do I do?
Speaker 1
So Shannon's like, well, that guy got Katie better not talk to me. I'll tell you that.
He's like, don't you want to talk to Katie? Make a new friend. She's like, no, absolutely not.
Speaker 1 Don't you even start.
Speaker 1 So Heather is making everyone do caviar bombs, which apparently is where they come and they put caviar on your hand like Coke.
Speaker 1 And then instead of snorting at you, lick it off, which sounds disgusting.
Speaker 1 Yes. I don't need
Speaker 1
my retin-A that is probably left over on my hand mixing with my caviar. Okay.
Absolutely not. And I have done many of these.
Speaker 1
I'm like, I will do it. I will do it.
Just give me a fucking cracker. I'm not even in it for the fish eggs.
I'm here for the crackers. I agree.
I like it. I prefer a cracker over
Speaker 1
it being on my hand. I don't love it being on my hand, but I do wash my hands first before I do it.
So that's. Oh, delicious.
Speaker 1 It's not too much.
Speaker 1
Public restroom soap scent as you eat your caviar. I just, it's gross.
Humans are gross.
Speaker 1 So
Speaker 1
Shannon's telling everyone about Phil. She's like, well, everyone.
So Phil, we met on the Love Hotel and
Speaker 1
he got to know all the girls. And he is one of our favorites.
He's also the one who has more than six figures in his bank account. So we enjoy Phil.
Emily's like, hey, I love your teeth.
Speaker 1 Wow, you got really good teeth. So when do you celebrate your birthday? A month later? Probably like this wacko.
Speaker 1 All right.
Speaker 1 Now, I just want to tell everyone that Phil is not a friend with benefits. He's just a friend.
Speaker 1 Although there is a benefit to being a friend with him, which is that he will bail you out if something should happen on the road, if you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 Oh, goodness. Phil, you're not recording this, are you?
Speaker 1 So, uh, Gina's like, Well, the dry-pack caviar is a bit mush, but just another day in the life of the prom.
Speaker 1 Um, so then Shannon, let's see, Shannon,
Speaker 1 gong with a glass, like they give you a shot, and then you have to hit the gong. And if you don't hit the gong, you have to take another shot and then keep hitting the gong.
Speaker 1 So, of course, Shannon just keeps missing it to get more shots, but they finally move her over to some verses.
Speaker 1 They're like, We'll give you a non-alcoholic non-alcoholic shot so we can hit the gong without getting wasted
Speaker 1 emily and gina walk through a hall of mirrors um
Speaker 1 uh which is like watching this show and gina's like she's like whoa this venue used to be like a massive like christian television compound and it's like giving those vibes like i also feel like weird cult shit like it's weird to think that there used to be like a tv networking and now it's gone i feel bad that they got canceled it's weird because miami was in their church and this one's in a christian compound.
Speaker 1 It's very Jesus-y week over on Brav's. So then
Speaker 1
Terry DeBrow is like, whoa, guys, there's a marijuana bar here. Okay.
They roll the whole thing. Look, let me show you, where'd it go? It's not in the glass thing.
Where did it go?
Speaker 1
I'm like, oh my God, Terry, probably been hitting the marijuana. We are cool.
We are a cool couple.
Speaker 1 Suck on this, Wendy Malik.
Speaker 1 So then
Speaker 1 Katie is there and she's like, well, I never thought I'd be at Heather's birthday, but seeing Shannon makes me sad. No, I think what you're supposed to say is, I feel bad.
Speaker 1
I'm just like, I won't do that. I won't say that, Gina.
So Shannon is already steaming because Shannon's had some shots now at the gong thing and her hair is pulled back.
Speaker 1 So we know what's about to happen. So she's like, wow, that girl recorded.
Speaker 1 recorded me in a gallery shoot and katie and gina back to them um katie's like yeah and i'm not really happy with tamara i mean listen i fell on the sword i went over to tamara's house i apologized to her and then she tattled on me and took everything I told her.
Speaker 1
And, you know, look, every problem I've had in this group has been Tamara telling on me. Yeah.
So maybe you learn your fucking lesson. Yeah, exactly.
No one on the show ever learns their lesson.
Speaker 1 Like, how is Tamara to these people off screen that they're so loyal to Tamara once the cameras start rolling? Because the second they start rolling, that shit's all out the window.
Speaker 1 You guys need to learn.
Speaker 1
Yeah, I know. Seriously.
So meanwhile, Emily says hi to Gretchen and Slade and Gretchen's like, however, by the way,
Speaker 1
we should get more testosterone for our love life because I broke Slade's penis for real. It's a medical thing.
You can't get a boner anymore. Yeah.
Speaker 1 It's like, yeah, when it breaks, it causes scar tissues and how it bends because he doesn't want to get hard in that section. So I call him Captain Hook now because it's like that.
Speaker 1
And you really can see how this has affected Slade because I was like, wow, Slade is much. He's much more withdrawn this time around.
It's like, oh, he can't get a full boner.
Speaker 1 And like, that's in his head.
Speaker 1 It's in his head in many, many ways, more ways than one.
Speaker 1
So then Heather and Katie are talking about Shannon. And Katie's like, I sent her a text.
And Heather's like, yep, she showed me. She showed me your text, which is okay somehow.
Speaker 1
Like recording's not bad, but showing people private texts are okay. So Shannon is like, oh, oh, well, look over there.
Heather is chatting with Katie like nothing happened.
Speaker 1 Are you fucking kidding me?
Speaker 1
I was like, oh, you know what, Katie, you have to fix this. You have to fix this.
Can you go fix this? Okay. Katie's like, okay, I'll ask her to a chat.
So they go and they basically
Speaker 1
go up. Jan and Katie go up to Phil and Shannon.
And Katie's like, hi, hi.
Speaker 1
I'm Katie. And you are, sir, with the teeth.
What's your name? Hello. I'm Phil from Palestine.
Speaker 1
Oh, wow. That's very interesting.
I feel scared right now. I don't know why.
Can we have a talk, Shannon? Okay, I am.
Speaker 1
Okay. Okay.
Well, I am very, very, very, very, very sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you in any way.
Speaker 1 I have no excuse except that I just wanted to bring laughter into the lives of many people by recording you. That's all.
Speaker 1
Oh, well, you know, you sent me a text and you were giving me excuses and that is not an apology. What you did is illegal.
Legal!
Speaker 1 Illegal!
Speaker 1 And I expect my privacy that day where you videotaped me i was upset that was illegal
Speaker 1 i don't even remember what it was i don't even remember what it was about well it's none of your business it's none of your business what that call was about well you you came in to the gallery shoot and you were on your speakerphone it was outside i was outside no no it was right next to our station is that your business is that your business is that your business well you made it you made it my business when you did it i was on in fact i was on a business call with an investor investing in walk-out tiny shot glasses.
Speaker 1 Well,
Speaker 1 isn't there a thing? Tiny shot glasses, golf, golf,
Speaker 1 the little golf buzzballs.
Speaker 1 I was getting an investor who was going to invest in shot glasses that were the shape of golf balls.
Speaker 1
Unfortunately, I was being told on call that I was being sued for stealing his ID in the first place. Yeah, that didn't really happen.
So
Speaker 1
I was one heartbeat away from Shark Tank, and then you walked in and disrupted everything. I mean, Barbara Corcoran basically hung up on me at that moment.
I went from Shark Tank to Shark Tank. Okay.
Speaker 1 And Shannon's like, well, you're on an important business call and yet you hung up to record me. Hmm.
Speaker 1
Which was a decent point, actually. It is a very strong point.
That you are sitting here trying to defend yourself.
Speaker 1
I... am apologizing.
No, you're not. No, you're not.
That's not an apology. That is not an apology.
There's not one carb in sight.
Speaker 1
Emily's like watching it. She goes, hell there's your party.
So I don't know if you want to intervene. Should we do it? You would intervene.
And Shane's like, we should record it. Get it.
Get it.
Speaker 1
And Emily's like, that is hilarious, Shane. That is hilarious.
You're getting anal tonight. So Shanna's like, nothing you say ever adds up ever, Katie.
Speaker 1
And I've gone to the bottom of the barrel with these women. And not once has anyone recorded me.
And her fingers going in full length. She buzzes it around.
Speaker 1 She points it in her face and buzzes it in a circle. And then she starts doing the conducting thing where she's like, not once.
Speaker 1 I'm going to say that you know about Shannon, because I guarantee Tamara and all of them have recorded you many times and they laugh about it to themselves.
Speaker 1 So Katie's like, well, it just, it went to my husband. Alexis never heard it, which we know is a lie because.
Speaker 1 We know at the very least she told, she sat and told Alexis all about it. So Katie does this thing where she like plays on technicalities, you know? Yeah.
Speaker 1
And Shannon's like, oh, Katie, I, I act, I, I, I, I, I, I, I worry about your mental state. I really do.
And she's like, well, um, you're worried about
Speaker 1
my mental state. You, Shannon Medor.
Shannon Medor. Worried about my mental state.
Speaker 1 And she's like, she's the one screaming and yelling, you know.
Speaker 1 You were the one, you were the one in Sonoma sitting with me, talking about the videos against me. And you decided after all that I've been through to video record me.
Speaker 1
Yes, I know what the technical term is. Video record.
That's what she did.
Speaker 1 And no apology will ever make up for how you have violated me i put you in the same category as john jansen video recorders that's what you both are it's like oh really so i sued you for 75 grand
Speaker 1 well you you were you you you you recorded me and you're in their category you're like a category five hurricane storm sorry earl that was for you i was trying to do a little makeup makeup session for you there you go She's like, no, I'm not.
Speaker 1
Can I talk? Can I talk? You're the one talking over me. So she, Shannon, gets in her full ponytail, drunken anger, gets up.
She's like, let me make this clear. I can't eat you, Nelma.
Speaker 1
I will never, ever speak to you again. You are the most evil, evil person I've met.
She's trying to defend herself. She's,
Speaker 1
insanity. I'm not going to let you rile me up.
Not you. This girl, worse, worse than Alexis Bellino.
Worse than Tamara Judge. We're done.
We're done.
Speaker 1
I will not let you rile me up while I scream at this party and storm out. You will not rile me up.
And then she storms out and Kitty goes, she left her grilled cheese.
