161. Paige's exit; Marriage and phone etiquette; Next Gen NYC; Jax is just plain dangerous
Paige announced her exit from Summer House this morning, coming off the final reunion episode of Summer House season 9. We have thoughts on why she's leaving and what might be next for her. Amanda and Kyle shared that they have had struggles in their marriage over the last year - and we have some tea on how Kyle's behavior isn't exactly matching up with his words. Is it ever appropriate for a married person to give another person (of the sex they are attracted to) their phone number? How do we handle this situation in our real lives? Next Gen NYC is here and we are pleasantly surprised that we loved the first episode. We do a breakdown on each castmember - backgound and who we're liking and who can go. Plus, our thoughts on why this show really could become Bravo's next big franchise. And last, we share a comment from our friend and Cocktail Party member, @stonecolddaddy about Jax. We couldn't agree more. We hope you're listening on this one, Bravo.

1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,820 Why are you giving these attractive women your number and 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,820 one or two people? You think you gave your number to a couple? 3 00:00:08,820 --> 00:00:12,660 Why are you giving, as a married man, your number out to multiple 4 00:00:12,660 --> 00:00:16,620 women? It isn't like she was the director of management of the 5 00:00:16,620 --> 00:00:20,340 Bellagio Hotel and he was booking a DJ gig, right? Nobody 6 00:00:20,340 --> 00:00:23,120 should be that friendly when they're married. Nobody is 7 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,740 screwing you. You're screwing yourself. You're disrespecting 8 00:00:27,740 --> 00:00:28,340 your wife. 9 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,020 Welcome to cocktails and gossip, the podcast where we drink 10 00:00:39,020 --> 00:00:41,500 cocktails, but you better believe we're going to spill the 11 00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:46,000 tape. We chat reality TV celebrity blinds and the hottest 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,800 tea from Bravo and cocktails.com and as always, it's all alleged. 13 00:00:50,860 --> 00:00:54,160 And just for fun, we do not verify our blinds. 14 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,720 I'm B and I'm Amanda. Let's get into this week's tea. Well, 15 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,240 drop. 16 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,660 What's up? Cocktail ers, I apologize in advance for my 17 00:01:06,660 --> 00:01:11,160 voice. My allergies are and I'm doubling up. I'm taking allergy 18 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:15,420 medication in the morning and allergy medication at night. But 19 00:01:15,420 --> 00:01:20,160 I just saw online, the Canadian wildfires are apparently 20 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,960 affecting the air quality in New York, because this is like 21 00:01:24,140 --> 00:01:28,700 crazy. I I'm like, I'm losing my voice as I'm talking and having 22 00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:31,340 to constantly drink water, so I'm sorry. 23 00:01:32,180 --> 00:01:35,600 Well, we just hope you're feeling better. And I struggle 24 00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:39,560 with allergies too, and it's like, I don't know, it's been an 25 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,180 extra long season. And we have this one tree in our front yard 26 00:01:43,180 --> 00:01:47,140 that drops and, like on our front area, that drops stuff, 27 00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:50,140 different stuff, all year long. And I think I'm allergic to all 28 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:55,000 you're allergic to everything it drops pretty much. Okay. So we 29 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,980 should start with summer house, because the reunion was on last 30 00:01:59,980 --> 00:02:04,740 night, but also some big news was also 31 00:02:04,740 --> 00:02:09,120 dropped today. So today, Paige officially announced her 32 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,320 departure, and this week has just been filled with Will she? 33 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:18,420 Won't she? Different Intel? Amanda and I, prior to anybody 34 00:02:18,420 --> 00:02:22,100 saying she wasn't returning, had a long chat a couple pods ago, 35 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,120 our listeners know that we really felt there was no way 36 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,380 she'd be returning full time. Yeah, and the reason for that, 37 00:02:30,380 --> 00:02:33,620 she doesn't need the check, I have to say, I never saw a page 38 00:02:33,620 --> 00:02:36,980 as somebody who loved it. It was more a vehicle to get her where 39 00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:42,580 she wanted to be. And it appears to me she's quite possibly she's 40 00:02:42,580 --> 00:02:45,340 got further to go, because everything she touches is gold, 41 00:02:45,340 --> 00:02:47,800 but just, quite frankly, it didn't make sense for her to 42 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,900 come back for that check. I did think we'd get appearances, and 43 00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:56,560 I do believe, and I'm going to walk you guys through all of the 44 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,300 different intel we had Amanda, and I will, because I do believe 45 00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:02,760 there were contract negotiations, trying to get 46 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,420 appearances. I was told that she was asking for a lot of money, 47 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,980 rightfully so. So whether or not we'll see her on summer house, 48 00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:14,040 really, in my opinion, comes down to what the budget is, and 49 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,160 if they were able to make it work. I would like to point out 50 00:03:17,220 --> 00:03:21,140 that a source reached out to me as soon as Paige announced and 51 00:03:21,140 --> 00:03:25,580 said, B notice she's thanking the NBCU family and not 52 00:03:25,580 --> 00:03:29,720 specifically. Bravo. This is a perfect example of one door 53 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,320 closing another one opening. There's a bigger deal coming 54 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,140 down the pipeline. Does that look like a regular feature on 55 00:03:36,140 --> 00:03:39,800 the Today Show, her own show, in addition to maybe a summer house 56 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:40,480 spin off, 57 00:03:40,539 --> 00:03:44,619 she started in the post too. She said, you'll see me again, and 58 00:03:45,399 --> 00:03:47,499 that doesn't surprise us. Yeah, 59 00:03:47,500 --> 00:03:50,680 so I think we should walk everybody through the different 60 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,320 intel we got this week, because sometimes it's funny to see how 61 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:59,080 we landed here. Yes. Okay, so at the beginning of the week, we 62 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,840 got this email subject, casting. Casting is looking at bringing 63 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,840 Oh, and the email is from summer house at Bravo, so we this is 64 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,540 how we know what the email is about. Casting is looking at 65 00:04:09,540 --> 00:04:13,500 bringing in two new guys and two new girls, all single. They want 66 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,880 Jesse, Lexi West and Sierra to be around single people, so the 67 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,400 drama of possible hookups happens. Sadly, Lindsay Carl and 68 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,940 Paige won't be full time, but will definitely make appearances 69 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,780 and might be shown in solo scenes in the city a little 70 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,880 which will be like more test scenes for a spin off. Gabby and 71 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,720 emerald are done, and Danielle will not be visiting any longer. 72 00:04:38,780 --> 00:04:43,000 Thank God for that shell. Mean, she's just mean. I'm bitter her. 73 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:49,360 I agree, bitter. So yesterday we got more intel and other gossip. 74 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,140 Sources are were saying different things regarding the 75 00:04:53,140 --> 00:04:57,280 summer house cast. I was told it this was yesterday. It isn't 76 00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:59,920 decided yet. Kyle and Amanda weren't mentioned in that email. 77 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120 Well, my source said they're full time. As of yesterday, I 78 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,960 was told Paige is still negotiating the want is for full 79 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,660 time, but they're giving her flexibility to not go to The 80 00:05:09,660 --> 00:05:13,500 Hamptons and film with Lindsay in the city, full departure with 81 00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:16,800 only guest appearances are the backup plan. And again, the 82 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,980 person at the same thought that she just doesn't want her love 83 00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:22,880 life, life in general, played out on camera, because the 84 00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:26,420 payoff isn't worth it for her to expose that much. So she 85 00:05:26,420 --> 00:05:30,260 announced a full departure. I do think that the last thing 86 00:05:30,260 --> 00:05:33,140 anybody would do is alienate the network that made them famous. 87 00:05:33,140 --> 00:05:38,960 So we will absolutely see her a separate source did say that she 88 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,220 was asking for a lot of money. That's where these negotiations 89 00:05:42,220 --> 00:05:45,280 came into play. This was as of yesterday, and obviously it was 90 00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:48,280 ironed out yesterday. And the announcement she made today, she 91 00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:51,220 didn't mention an appearance. But if she's making a deal with 92 00:05:51,220 --> 00:05:54,700 NBCU, an overarching deal, I don't see a world where they 93 00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:57,640 don't work in something this summer. You know what I mean. 94 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,240 And why would she mention that? Because even if she pops up at a 95 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,460 lunch in the city. She's not going to mention that in her 96 00:06:02,460 --> 00:06:04,020 goodbye post, no, 97 00:06:04,020 --> 00:06:07,080 she just said, you'll see us. You'll see me again. And we 98 00:06:07,140 --> 00:06:11,220 know, you know, there's been talk about the spit off in the 99 00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:16,740 city show, and you know, I, I gotta give it to her, because 100 00:06:17,100 --> 00:06:22,460 she did it, right? She built something else amazing while on 101 00:06:22,460 --> 00:06:27,140 the show, in a situation where she has creative control, she 102 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:32,780 and Hannah do for giggly squad and all of those properties, 103 00:06:32,780 --> 00:06:39,740 including the tour, all of that, she has also built a sizable 104 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:47,020 Amazon live selling business as well as lots of brand deals and 105 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,100 influencing. I I really do think, you know, not everybody 106 00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:54,820 can do this. I think she is very she is a star, right, as we have 107 00:06:54,820 --> 00:06:59,740 discussed, she's doing it right, and she's leaving when the show 108 00:06:59,740 --> 00:07:03,060 still wants her, she's, I'm sure, leaving on very good 109 00:07:03,060 --> 00:07:08,100 terms, and she's leaving and she doesn't when she doesn't need 110 00:07:08,340 --> 00:07:13,080 the show. And I think everybody should follow this as textbook 111 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,620 on how you do it, because I think of a lot about the other 112 00:07:16,620 --> 00:07:22,400 housewives who have dabbled in other things, right? Like Teresa 113 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,560 judais comes to mind, and 114 00:07:25,460 --> 00:07:29,540 right, there was a point where she could have done more she and 115 00:07:29,540 --> 00:07:32,840 she didn't, but not everybody is offered that opportunity 116 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,820 or herself. Paige made it right herself, and that's what I think 117 00:07:37,820 --> 00:07:40,480 is so cool about her, because, but not everybody 118 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,840 has the likability factor. Like as an example, Amanda gets brand 119 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,020 deals. Sierra gets brand deals. People like them on the show. 120 00:07:47,020 --> 00:07:50,380 They're not in a position to give up the check, no, and 121 00:07:50,380 --> 00:07:53,200 that's and the exposure that comes. They don't have a podcast 122 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,260 that a million people listen to, as Paige and Hannah do, and 123 00:07:56,260 --> 00:08:01,920 that's where I think, as well, that hand or that Paige in her 124 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,180 next step, whatever she does next, she's probably looking for 125 00:08:06,180 --> 00:08:12,420 more creative control as well, yeah, and to not be a part of an 126 00:08:12,420 --> 00:08:18,780 ensemble cast where there is less control of her image and 127 00:08:19,260 --> 00:08:22,520 the way that she is portrayed honestly. So 128 00:08:22,580 --> 00:08:25,760 she's a huge brand. She's a name. I think one name only, 129 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:26,600 Paige. I 130 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:31,040 think it makes so much sense for her. And I'm I obviously we're 131 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,300 gonna miss her, but I think I think this is a really smart 132 00:08:35,300 --> 00:08:36,140 call on her part. 133 00:08:36,199 --> 00:08:38,959 I do want I agree wholeheartedly. I know we'll 134 00:08:38,959 --> 00:08:41,919 still see her. I know we can listen to her on her podcast. 135 00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:45,339 She has her YouTube show with Hannah, so I will miss her on 136 00:08:45,339 --> 00:08:47,979 summer house. I think it's absolutely the right move. I 137 00:08:47,979 --> 00:08:51,999 wonder what the success of the show without her looks like. And 138 00:08:51,999 --> 00:08:56,499 speaking of those who are continuing on the show we saw at 139 00:08:56,499 --> 00:09:00,279 the reunion, the second part, Amanda and Kyle opened up about 140 00:09:00,279 --> 00:09:03,179 the struggles in their marriage, Amanda said that the combination 141 00:09:03,179 --> 00:09:07,319 of Kyle's work and party habits led her to have one foot out the 142 00:09:07,379 --> 00:09:11,459 door. Quoted, I'm quoting directly, right, Kyle was asked, 143 00:09:11,459 --> 00:09:14,219 Are you ready to have kids? And he countered with, is Amanda 144 00:09:14,219 --> 00:09:17,339 ready to have kids? And we saw this in the clip, but I found it 145 00:09:17,339 --> 00:09:19,979 pretty shocking that she said, Yeah, with someone who actually 146 00:09:19,979 --> 00:09:23,539 wants to have kids with me. So clearly, Kyle was trying to 147 00:09:23,539 --> 00:09:26,059 gloss it over, like, yeah, I've made changes. Things are not 148 00:09:26,059 --> 00:09:30,499 great, and him trying to spin it that he's made some changes, but 149 00:09:30,499 --> 00:09:34,099 we know about his current work and party schedule, and no 150 00:09:34,099 --> 00:09:37,519 changes have been made. And Amanda looked very unsatisfied 151 00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:39,199 with his answers. Yeah, 152 00:09:39,199 --> 00:09:44,079 I mean, she said it's hard to be a family when he's working as 153 00:09:44,079 --> 00:09:47,199 much, and then he's gone on the weekends on these DJ gets gigs. 154 00:09:47,199 --> 00:09:52,599 I believe she used the word the term midlife crisis about him. I 155 00:09:52,599 --> 00:09:52,959 mean, 156 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,320 do have some exclusive intel that and Amanda and I both 157 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,600 Amanda, my Amanda, have really hesitated to share. This in the 158 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,140 past, ultimately, because they discussed the issues in their 159 00:10:04,140 --> 00:10:08,100 marriage at the reunion, and we saw the clips before it aired. I 160 00:10:08,100 --> 00:10:12,600 did share to cocktail party the most recent Intel and receipts 161 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,320 that we got. And if you are not a subscriber, we are now going 162 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,820 to share some of it here. You 163 00:10:25,159 --> 00:10:29,239 cocktails in my personal life, I always say I love to cook, but 164 00:10:29,239 --> 00:10:32,779 not on a deadline, meaning that I love cooking when it's a 165 00:10:32,779 --> 00:10:36,559 leisurely thing, but I hate cooking when it's a week night 166 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,839 and I'm racing to get dinner on the table. But Caraway has 167 00:10:40,839 --> 00:10:44,499 changed that a bit while I so much prefer a usually cooking 168 00:10:44,499 --> 00:10:49,059 situation. The other night, I had a realization I was making 169 00:10:49,059 --> 00:10:52,839 dinner and also meal prepping a bunch of breakfast items for the 170 00:10:52,839 --> 00:10:57,279 week, because my son has a new, very busy summer sports 171 00:10:57,339 --> 00:11:00,719 schedule, and I'm trying to make sure that he gets some healthy 172 00:11:00,719 --> 00:11:04,379 food before he leaves, and then when he's in transit from one 173 00:11:04,379 --> 00:11:08,039 practice to another, while I'm doing this, I realize that 174 00:11:08,039 --> 00:11:13,139 Caraway has made my life easier.

I kind of figure too, 179 00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:31,399 if I'm going to go to all this trouble to meal prep healthy 180 00:11:31,399 --> 00:11:35,119 meals for my family, it sure helps to know that I'm cooking 181 00:11:35,119 --> 00:11:38,839 these meals with non toxic cookware this summer, quick 182 00:11:38,839 --> 00:11:44,199 cooking with toxins.

So, as be said, we don't always, you know sometimes when 193 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,580 we're posting stuff like it's not our favorite to post this, 194 00:12:45,580 --> 00:12:50,740 but in this case, there were receipts. So Kyle was in Vegas 195 00:12:50,740 --> 00:12:57,700 for a bachelor party and also a DJ gig, a cocktailer who we know 196 00:12:57,700 --> 00:13:02,580 because she's often we chat with her, she sent pictures and 197 00:13:02,580 --> 00:13:06,300 videos of them hanging out and said he took her number. He had 198 00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:10,620 no ring on but they did not hook up. It was super friendly. The 199 00:13:10,620 --> 00:13:15,060 second part of the summer house reunion had not been shown yet, 200 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,800 but as we just mentioned, Things are tense in their marriage. So 201 00:13:20,220 --> 00:13:23,480 we shared this one, prophesying that although it was flirty, it 202 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,300 was not a hookup or anything like 203 00:13:26,299 --> 00:13:31,819 that. Many times I've received DMS. We've received emails with 204 00:13:31,819 --> 00:13:36,019 similar Intel, and we have decided not to post it. There is 205 00:13:36,019 --> 00:13:40,299 a guilt that comes in with us posting this stuff, but the 206 00:13:40,299 --> 00:13:44,979 reality is these he is a public figure. All reality stars are, 207 00:13:45,219 --> 00:13:49,719 and you are in Vegas at very public pool parties. So if we 208 00:13:49,719 --> 00:13:52,239 don't post it, somebody else is going to the same way. 209 00:13:52,239 --> 00:13:55,839 Scandoval, we posted the intel we had about the affair with 210 00:13:55,839 --> 00:13:58,479 Raquel, and then it was confirmed. It gets to a point 211 00:13:58,479 --> 00:14:01,799 where I kind of take the temperature along with Amanda, 212 00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:05,459 and we really do come to agreement, yeah, on it. And 213 00:14:05,459 --> 00:14:08,459 sometimes I'll be ready to post, and she'll be like, I don't 214 00:14:08,459 --> 00:14:11,399 know, let's hold off. And vice versa. And we kind of came to an 215 00:14:11,399 --> 00:14:14,939 agreement this time, like, Okay, it's time, because Jesse teased 216 00:14:15,059 --> 00:14:18,059 the big announcement, and I thought, based on the clips and 217 00:14:18,059 --> 00:14:21,319 based on the fact that he wasn't wearing his ring at the pool, 218 00:14:21,319 --> 00:14:24,259 and he was so blatant that maybe we were getting a separation 219 00:14:24,259 --> 00:14:27,739 announcement. Honestly, that is why I felt comfortable posting 220 00:14:27,739 --> 00:14:31,639 it. Ultimately, they did not announce a separation, but we do 221 00:14:31,639 --> 00:14:34,459 have a confirmation from our source that they'll be full time 222 00:14:34,459 --> 00:14:37,819 next season. All of this is in the air. Amanda has said that 223 00:14:37,819 --> 00:14:40,479 Kyle's partying puts their marriage at risk, so I don't 224 00:14:40,479 --> 00:14:42,099 know what we're looking at this summer. 225 00:14:42,460 --> 00:14:47,980 Yeah, well, I do want to say too, just reflecting on all of 226 00:14:47,980 --> 00:14:52,360 this, I think it's one thing. Like you and I have talked 227 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:56,740 about, like going out on a girls night and like having a good 228 00:14:56,740 --> 00:15:02,940 time is one thing going. Out repeatedly until you know they 229 00:15:02,940 --> 00:15:07,020 say, nothing good happens after 2am or midnight, depending, 230 00:15:07,020 --> 00:15:10,920 yeah, midnight, but whichever. But you know, when you're 231 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:16,080 repeatedly putting yourself purposely in these situations, 232 00:15:16,140 --> 00:15:20,960 and you're planning your life around being in these 233 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:26,060 situations, right? It raises eyebrows. It you can't I think 234 00:15:26,060 --> 00:15:30,920 every you know, I think you can be a man. You can go to Vegas 235 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,960 for a wild bachelor party. That is a route, you know, at a pool 236 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,080 party, whatever. You can still be respectful to your wife, 237 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,940 right? I think, though, if you continue to put yourself in 238 00:15:42,940 --> 00:15:48,520 these late night everybody shit faced situations again and again 239 00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:52,240 and again, that you really need to look at your behavior and why 240 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:57,820 you aren't home in bed with your wife at 2am on correct any given 241 00:15:57,820 --> 00:15:58,420 Saturday. 242 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,260 So the posts that we shared and the receipts that we shared. Got 243 00:16:01,260 --> 00:16:05,700 back to Kyle, and he actually texted the woman, woman who sent 244 00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:11,940 us the video, picture, etc, and he said, this is his text to 245 00:16:11,940 --> 00:16:16,620 her, sorry. So he sent a screenshot of our cocktail post 246 00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:19,800 and said, Sorry, but did you send this in I don't think I 247 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,080 gave my number to more than one or two people, including you and 248 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,800 I was just being friendly. Sucks when I get screwed like this. I 249 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,260 lost my wedding ring at the gym earlier 250 00:16:30,260 --> 00:16:34,040 this week. Sorry, but that text sounds like guilt to me. 251 00:16:34,519 --> 00:16:37,399 Listen, you're a married man, you're in Vegas, you're at a 252 00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:40,719 pool party in bikinis, not you're not in a bikini, but the 253 00:16:40,719 --> 00:16:45,699 women are Why are you giving these attractive women your 254 00:16:45,699 --> 00:16:48,939 number and one or two people? You think you gave your number 255 00:16:48,939 --> 00:16:52,359 to a couple? Why are you giving, as a married man, your number 256 00:16:52,359 --> 00:16:56,439 out to multiple women? It isn't like she was the director of 257 00:16:56,439 --> 00:16:59,679 management of the Bellagio Hotel and he was booking a DJ gig, 258 00:16:59,739 --> 00:17:03,119 right? Nobody should be that friendly when they're married. 259 00:17:03,179 --> 00:17:07,439 Nobody is screwing you. You're screwing yourself. You're 260 00:17:07,439 --> 00:17:10,799 disrespecting your wife, and none of that has anything to do 261 00:17:10,919 --> 00:17:14,639 with any of us that report on it. That makes what it is. 262 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,220 Let me ask you a question, because I know what you're gonna 263 00:17:17,220 --> 00:17:20,780 say to my first question, so I'm just gonna assume you're gonna 264 00:17:20,780 --> 00:17:24,920 say no, but I can't think. Can you think of any situations 265 00:17:25,100 --> 00:17:29,120 where you would be out in Vegas and you would give your number 266 00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:33,740 to a man that is just somebody else partying? I'm gonna assume 267 00:17:33,740 --> 00:17:34,640 no, right, no. 268 00:17:34,700 --> 00:17:38,780 And if I got the same receipts from Abe Lici and Aaron from 269 00:17:38,780 --> 00:17:42,460 Roni, I would think it was very inappropriate and or any married 270 00:17:42,460 --> 00:17:44,740 person. So here I are a woman giving 271 00:17:44,740 --> 00:17:48,040 here's my follow up question I am actually, this is one that I 272 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:57,520 am really curious, because I as a mom of two kids, I do a lot of 273 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:02,100 logistics planning, right? Carpool planning, tournament, 274 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:07,920 planning things like that. And there are often or like even 275 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,580 play dates. You know, when kids are coming back and forth, I 276 00:18:11,700 --> 00:18:16,740 usually copy the person's if I'm trying to figure something out 277 00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:21,560 with a dad, I usually copy their wife on all of the text, because 278 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:26,900 I think that is respectful thing to do. Do you have, like, What 279 00:18:26,900 --> 00:18:27,860 is your thought on that? 280 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,020 I am trying to think of a situation where I've texted a 281 00:18:36,020 --> 00:18:41,020 father, and I can't think of one, because in both cases, it's 282 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,940 either a team message where, like everybody, whatever parent 283 00:18:45,940 --> 00:18:48,400 is on the team, that's the contact is on there, but it's 284 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,280 public for the whole team, yeah, or I'm dealing with 285 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,220 the mom, yeah. And for fun, 286 00:18:54,220 --> 00:18:58,540 I agree with what you're saying. I had a text Jimmy's dad, John, 287 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,160 I would tag his wife, Colleen on that, like I 288 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,400 write CC, you just put her on the text, which is what? Because 289 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:12,300 I think in my older son's situation, the some of the like 290 00:19:12,300 --> 00:19:17,220 this, there's just a lot of planning and coordination with 291 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,780 some of the travel team stuff, but then all and like that. So 292 00:19:20,780 --> 00:19:24,980 there's a couple of the dads that kind of lead it, and so I, 293 00:19:25,460 --> 00:19:28,580 I and like, I just, I can't think of a situation where I 294 00:19:28,580 --> 00:19:31,700 wouldn't also put the life on the text, even though I know 295 00:19:31,700 --> 00:19:35,000 she's not going to be responding, that I'm, you know, 296 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,080 really reaching out to the dad to follow up on something, or to 297 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:45,160 firm up carpool or whatever. So it's just, it's that, to me, is 298 00:19:45,340 --> 00:19:49,900 extremely disrespectful to give somebody your number and like, 299 00:19:49,900 --> 00:19:53,380 there's in a quote, unquote friendly way. I just don't, I 300 00:19:53,380 --> 00:19:55,540 don't know. I don't believe in that. I don't think that. I 301 00:19:55,540 --> 00:19:58,900 don't think that's a thing in a respectful marriage. Maybe I'm, 302 00:19:58,900 --> 00:20:01,800 like, really traditional. I don't know. I don't think 303 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,040 it is either, and I'm interested to see I haven't received any 304 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,600 DMS or any comments on the cocktail posts that say he's 305 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,540 just being friendly. I think people generally agree with us, 306 00:20:12,540 --> 00:20:16,860 and I do think that Kyle is a friendly, outgoing guy, but you 307 00:20:16,860 --> 00:20:19,440 don't have to give anyone your number. You can be friendly and 308 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,060 outgoing. I 309 00:20:20,060 --> 00:20:25,100 have met people. So I have met people in business situations 310 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,720 and but then I give them my work email. I don't give her my phone 311 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:35,240 number, same, yeah, it's just, I don't know. It's whatever. This 312 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:40,100 is not like a virtue signaling situation. This is just somebody 313 00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:46,600 who's got a lot of experience being married, and I just this 314 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,060 is what I, you know, I personally find to be 315 00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:53,680 appropriate or inappropriate. Okay, so let's talk about what's 316 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,800 going to happen with the rest of the cast, because I know I am 317 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,660 really hoping we get this show that we have been asking for, 318 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,780 which is this filming in the city with some of our favorite 319 00:21:03,780 --> 00:21:07,620 cast members, including Lindsey, which, you know, I have said 320 00:21:07,620 --> 00:21:11,580 many times, I'm not like a huge Lindsey fan, but I really like 321 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,360 watching her, because I honestly, I'm really losing 322 00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:19,740 interest in watching people my age and this Kyle, I'm looking 323 00:21:19,740 --> 00:21:24,260 squarely at you party, just every weekend. And I like this 324 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:30,080 idea of maybe summer house, going younger, more single, less 325 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,380 couple house, and then possibly following some of the characters 326 00:21:33,380 --> 00:21:35,720 that we love, the cast we love in the city. And 327 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,020 I totally think that will happen regarding this summer and what 328 00:21:39,020 --> 00:21:41,620 summer house will look like. It makes sense. We're gonna see 329 00:21:41,620 --> 00:21:44,320 Lindsay out there. I think we'll also see her in the city. 330 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,380 Unfortunately, we know that she is not being considered for 331 00:21:47,380 --> 00:21:50,620 Roni, despite her friendships with some of the cast, including 332 00:21:50,620 --> 00:21:53,800 Erin and Jessel. I don't agree with that decision. I know a lot 333 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,860 of you guys don't agree, but that is what it is. Yeah, they 334 00:21:56,860 --> 00:21:59,380 should put her on Roni, but they're not if there's a spin 335 00:21:59,380 --> 00:22:03,000 off coming, which I do believe that there is, that has been the 336 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,260 plan. But as we said, that plan has not been for the immediate I 337 00:22:07,260 --> 00:22:10,440 can tell you, it is not on the production schedule for the 338 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:15,600 calendar year 2025 My hope is for calendar year 2026 they 339 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,480 start moving with that again. Let's call it January, right. 340 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,340 Get cameras up ahead of the summer so that before the next 341 00:22:22,340 --> 00:22:26,180 season, 11 of summer house, maybe we get to see the spin 342 00:22:26,180 --> 00:22:27,680 off. Also, 343 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,860 just from a production standpoint, guys like, listen to 344 00:22:30,860 --> 00:22:35,360 us, this makes sense, because you've got a team in place to be 345 00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:41,260 in the Hamptons on the weekends. Get that same team, that entire 346 00:22:41,260 --> 00:22:45,760 same team you can have working during the week on this other 347 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,480 show. So we're talking efficiencies Exactly. 348 00:22:49,540 --> 00:22:53,320 Let's get efficient. And I actually wrote because Amanda 349 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,260 and I write notes, and I actually wrote in my notes. We 350 00:22:56,260 --> 00:23:01,260 know beyond this season 10, we knew maybe we would see Paige do 351 00:23:01,260 --> 00:23:04,620 some limited filming to close it out, but I strongly felt she 352 00:23:04,620 --> 00:23:09,300 wouldn't be full time, if back at all. So by season 11, who's 353 00:23:09,300 --> 00:23:12,360 coming back like I can see Kyle and Amanda wrapping it up after 354 00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,680 this 10th summer, we still want Lindsay. So yeah, as far as 355 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,800 getting rid of Gabby, I really like her. I can see them wanting 356 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,220 to free that salary up for somebody that might bring more 357 00:23:22,220 --> 00:23:26,540 drama. Emerald never got a fair shot, but he's out. You know, 358 00:23:26,540 --> 00:23:30,140 there's some, there's some people who are saying that Lexi 359 00:23:30,140 --> 00:23:33,740 is out. I believe she's in. I just That's my gut, and my 360 00:23:33,740 --> 00:23:36,560 source told agreed with that. Let's see, yeah, 361 00:23:36,620 --> 00:23:40,040 I mean, I read comments. There's a lot of, I think, hand energy 362 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:44,080 behind Lexi as well, and there's some against her as well. But 363 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,160 we're all noticing all of the posts from Lindsay posting with 364 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,940 Aaron. It's got our attention, whether it means anything, 365 00:23:51,940 --> 00:23:57,580 probably not. But on the topic of Lindsay, at the reunion last 366 00:23:57,580 --> 00:24:01,740 night, we learned that she and her boyfriend are no longer 367 00:24:01,740 --> 00:24:05,700 romantically together, but they co parent very well, according 368 00:24:05,700 --> 00:24:06,840 to Lindsay, so 369 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,080 not only did we have this in cocktail party in February, we 370 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,220 had the details right down to them still brunching together. 371 00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:17,460 Listen, we had seen the speculation about them not being 372 00:24:17,460 --> 00:24:20,240 together, but then we had a reliable person tell us that 373 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,240 they are just co parenting, which is exactly what she said. 374 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,140 We also have posts that they were spotted after we had heard 375 00:24:27,140 --> 00:24:29,300 they weren't romantically involved, that they were spotted 376 00:24:29,300 --> 00:24:32,120 at brunch, it made us wonder if they had gotten back together. 377 00:24:32,120 --> 00:24:34,820 But as Lindsay pointed out, they're co parenting Well, she 378 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,780 did say that she's not in a place to date anyone else, and 379 00:24:38,780 --> 00:24:42,160 he spends a lot of nights at her place, not she said, not friends 380 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,920 with benefits, just co parenting. But she pointed out 381 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,380 that if he were dating somebody else, it would have to change 382 00:24:47,380 --> 00:24:50,500 their arrangement arrangement. She wouldn't want him staying 383 00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:55,900 with her. So I do get the feeling that they are at a 384 00:24:55,900 --> 00:25:00,720 crossroads of her not being willing to give. Up her public 385 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,800 persona for the relationship and him not willing to be with her 386 00:25:04,860 --> 00:25:08,820 if she doesn't give it up, which makes me sad for her, because he 387 00:25:08,820 --> 00:25:12,420 got together with her knowing full well who she was and what 388 00:25:12,420 --> 00:25:15,360 she did for a living. Yeah, yeah. 389 00:25:19,380 --> 00:25:23,660 I just hope they are able to co parent well, and they're able to 390 00:25:23,660 --> 00:25:29,540 continue that, because it's not easy to co parent and and they 391 00:25:29,540 --> 00:25:29,780 don't 392 00:25:29,780 --> 00:25:32,240 get back together at some point, one of them is going to date 393 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,580 somebody else. They're not just going to be celibate like 394 00:25:34,580 --> 00:25:36,020 forever. But also, 395 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:40,480 as Gemma gets older, I think things can change a little bit, 396 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:46,300 because when you have an infant, it's the, it's not like the 397 00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:50,560 infant can be doing a week on, week off, yeah, with their, you 398 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,620 know, their mother. And so I think the fact it makes a lot of 399 00:25:53,620 --> 00:25:58,300 sense that Tanner, the dad, is spending nights with the baby, 400 00:25:58,300 --> 00:26:02,040 so, like, I can see it being like, okay to, you know, Tanner 401 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,400 like you're here if she wakes up in the night, tonight's your 402 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,700 night. So Lindsay can actually get some sleep, because I don't 403 00:26:08,700 --> 00:26:12,660 think the baby is probably sleeping at Tanner's house yet. 404 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,920 But as she gets older, it'll become a little bit easier, 405 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,220 because you don't have it's not as immediate. You know, 406 00:26:20,220 --> 00:26:24,140 parenting is not as a immediate as in, like the baby's crying, I 407 00:26:24,140 --> 00:26:28,880 need to go feed her right now. Situation, it'll be interesting 408 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,960 to see, but I hope that they can continue to co parent. So New 409 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:38,240 York, next gen, New York City started this week, before we get 410 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,520 into the people. I am curious to hear what you think about 411 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:47,560 everything. But did you after watching that show? And I know 412 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,220 you're a New Yorker, so this is because I watched the show and 413 00:26:51,220 --> 00:26:56,560 felt like it's, it's making New York City look amazing, like 414 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,740 very much like sex, and the city did the way, the city was a 415 00:26:59,740 --> 00:27:01,980 character of sorts, 100% 416 00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:08,340 it gave such Gossip Girl vibes. Yeah, I agree with you. The city 417 00:27:08,340 --> 00:27:12,300 is a character in the same way the city is a character on Roni. 418 00:27:12,420 --> 00:27:17,460 I was excited and hopeful, but I was actually really pleasantly 419 00:27:17,460 --> 00:27:22,040 surprised with how good it was. The cast meshed very well 420 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,120 together. And you have Charlie, Georgia and Ava, who are like 421 00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:30,440 legit New Yorkers, right? And it felt that way. It felt 422 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,220 authentic. You then have the Bravo infusion of Brooks, who 423 00:27:34,220 --> 00:27:38,480 went to NYU, who is seemingly really friends with Charlie, 424 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:43,300 yeah, and Georgia and Ava as well. Riley also went to NYU. 425 00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:47,020 Yeah, so they do all have that common bond. We saw their 426 00:27:47,020 --> 00:27:50,920 backstories. We saw who was rich, like Charlie and Ava and 427 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,280 like celebrity, like Ava, and then who were who wasn't like 428 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:59,140 Georgia, who's just a hustler, right? It was what felt like an 429 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:04,260 authentic representation of the New York City Gen Z social scene 430 00:28:04,260 --> 00:28:07,860 at so let's go through the episode as we met everyone. 431 00:28:08,220 --> 00:28:13,860 Kim bierman's daughter, Ariana, was the first person they showed 432 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:19,080 we hear that she will be the breakout star, and I feel like 433 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,220 I'm already seeing it. 434 00:28:20,220 --> 00:28:23,000 Remember when she was little, she was the smart one in the 435 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:28,400 family. She continues to hold down that crown. Yeah, we saw 436 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,340 her and her boyfriend Hudson, looking at apartments. I have to 437 00:28:31,340 --> 00:28:33,620 tell a quick story. So on the way to one of my daughter's 438 00:28:33,620 --> 00:28:35,840 tournaments, we had a drive through Manhattan. We're in 439 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:40,480 gridlock traffic, and there was this small brownstone, and it 440 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,240 was on the way to the Holland Tunnel, so it was like a major 441 00:28:43,300 --> 00:28:47,440 street, right? And my husband was, like, just for shits and 442 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,440 giggles. Google that address. I would love to know what that is 443 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,740 listed at, yeah. So it was a fully attached brownstone. Think 444 00:28:53,740 --> 00:28:57,700 Sonia Morgan's, but not as tall, so not as many floors, so 445 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:02,400 smaller than that. Some brownstones do have a garage. 446 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,780 This did not it was $8 million or, like, seven, seven or 447 00:29:06,780 --> 00:29:09,060 something. So when I looked at the listing, it said it was, 448 00:29:09,060 --> 00:29:11,820 like 3000 square feet. But it looked tiny. It was fully 449 00:29:11,820 --> 00:29:15,180 attached. My kids were like, Oh my god. So Manhattan real estate 450 00:29:15,540 --> 00:29:19,500 is truly insane. Ariana, his boyfriend, as we know because we 451 00:29:19,500 --> 00:29:22,760 posted about it in cocktail Hudson. He's uber rich. His 452 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,600 family, his dad created Zach's bees. Am I saying that right? Do 453 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,580 you have them by you? I think they're mostly in the South. 454 00:29:28,580 --> 00:29:28,760 They're 455 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,780 in the South. I've been there before, but yeah, they're in the 456 00:29:32,780 --> 00:29:33,080 South. 457 00:29:33,260 --> 00:29:37,160 This is a fast food chain, and so he does very well. Ariana 458 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,780 shared that her mom stole all the money she made over the 459 00:29:40,780 --> 00:29:44,320 years, I assume, from the show and any brand deals or whatever, 460 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,720 she actually noted that she moved out because of her 461 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,080 mother's lying, and I guess, like, we can call it like 462 00:29:50,140 --> 00:29:53,020 personality disorder, really, truly, but she did say her 463 00:29:53,020 --> 00:29:56,920 parents stole her money. So Kroy is not an innocent in this, 464 00:29:56,980 --> 00:29:59,800 right? But yet she does carry guilt, and she still sends a. 465 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,120 Her mom money all the time. And Hudson expressed concerns, 466 00:30:03,180 --> 00:30:05,580 because while he understands her guilt, and of course, he 467 00:30:05,580 --> 00:30:09,120 understands her need to want to help the four little kids that 468 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,000 Kim and Croy have, he said to her, how do we even know that 469 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,180 money's going to the kids? Like, I think he's I think he's trying 470 00:30:15,180 --> 00:30:17,460 to say to her, like, yes, we want to help the kids, but we 471 00:30:17,460 --> 00:30:20,600 have to do something where we know that it's going to them, 472 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,720 and it's being utilized for them. It was so disturbing, 473 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:24,560 learning this, 474 00:30:24,620 --> 00:30:29,660 it is so sad. I can't say I'm surprised that it happened to 475 00:30:29,660 --> 00:30:34,340 her, knowing how bad the finances had gotten with Kim and 476 00:30:34,340 --> 00:30:39,980 cry, I was honestly very surprised, in a good way, I 477 00:30:39,980 --> 00:30:44,800 guess, to see Arianna be so honest about it, yes, seeing her 478 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:49,240 feel so conflicted about wanting to send the money to her mom for 479 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,800 the kids, but then also seeing her mom drink a $200 bottle of 480 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,520 wine, that's just not a way that I could see myself living a life 481 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,700 but and then that they lied about where all the money went, 482 00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:03,480 like you said. She said she moved out because of all the 483 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,680 lying. All of this feels unfathomable to me, but it also, 484 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,860 again, just makes me wonder about the mental health of Croy 485 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,760 and Kim and which just makes my heart go because they have 486 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:15,300 speaking of 487 00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:19,680 Kim in real time. This morning, I got a text from a cocktail 488 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,080 that sent me a picture that isn't a good one. She's going to 489 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,440 try to get it back. Get a better one when they land. They're 490 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,520 currently in flight who spotted Kim zolziak on a flight to the 491 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,140 Bahamas sitting diagonally from our cocktail or talking very 492 00:31:33,140 --> 00:31:36,080 loudly and chugging bloodies. I hope she can get me a better 493 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,680 picture. Oh, and she's also with a Croy look alike, and it looks 494 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,580 like it's first class. Let me try to zoom in, but yeah, yeah, 495 00:31:42,580 --> 00:31:43,240 it's first class. 496 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,060 Hopefully he's paying for everything. I also thought, I 497 00:31:46,060 --> 00:31:48,880 don't know if you picked up on this, but when Ariana and 498 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,760 husband are sitting outside at that restaurant and there's that 499 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:56,200 close up on the bottom of her Louboutins, yeah, it's such a 500 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:02,400 metaphor, I feel like, for where she is in life, which is she had 501 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,120 wealth, it's been taken away, and she's kind of clawing her 502 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,600 way back to the top. I don't know. I thought it was cool. It 503 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,080 was cool video work, cool editing. And I'm really rooting 504 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:17,580 for her same next they showed Brooks. He is the creative 505 00:32:17,580 --> 00:32:21,860 director for his mother, Meredith marks company. He 506 00:32:21,860 --> 00:32:25,100 shares that he is feels like he's living in her shadow. 507 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,640 I have to say, I think Brooks is a great fit the Bravo audience 508 00:32:28,700 --> 00:32:32,600 knows him. He's connected to both the New York City kids like 509 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,380 Charlie and Georgia and Ava and then the Bravo kids. So it 510 00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:38,120 really positions him to be the glue. 511 00:32:38,180 --> 00:32:43,780 Yeah, I agree. I think he's, he is also very just good looking, 512 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:48,040 I thought too, the fact that he's not a confrontation person, 513 00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:51,460 and kind of watching him struggle with that, I think is 514 00:32:51,460 --> 00:32:55,540 kind of interesting, because we're so used to people on 515 00:32:55,540 --> 00:32:59,440 housewives shows going all in. So I think that's kind of an 516 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,720 interesting angle. I have to say, if he feels like he's in 517 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,260 his mother's shadow, don't work for her. You know, like, Yes, I 518 00:33:07,260 --> 00:33:10,620 think one of the reasons that I think I'm really gonna like this 519 00:33:10,620 --> 00:33:17,460 show is because I feel like this is one of the most pivotal, if 520 00:33:17,460 --> 00:33:22,400 not the most pivotal, point in people's lives, because I 521 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:27,200 remember feeling so scared to go and work and build my career on 522 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,340 my own, because school and college were very comfortable 523 00:33:31,340 --> 00:33:34,580 for me. I was good at getting good grades. I was good at, 524 00:33:34,580 --> 00:33:38,060 like, figuring things out, but I had, you know, building a 525 00:33:38,060 --> 00:33:41,860 career. I had no idea how to do that. I went to school in a 526 00:33:41,860 --> 00:33:45,820 smaller town, and then I moved to a big city that I was not 527 00:33:45,820 --> 00:33:50,560 from, and I figured it out, and I never thought of it as brave 528 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,040 at the time, but looking back, I really do, and so I really 529 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,120 identify with these kids and where they are, because it's 530 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,980 such a it just is such a crazy time of life where people are 531 00:34:01,980 --> 00:34:05,820 told, you know, you're an adult now you have to figure it out. 532 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:11,220 Like Riley said, she's got a year until her mom cuts her off. 533 00:34:11,220 --> 00:34:14,040 And I'm like, that's more than a lot of people have, but it's I 534 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:18,600 still identify with that. So this is, I just think I really 535 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:24,440 like this theme, and seeing this through the Gen Z lens. And so, 536 00:34:24,500 --> 00:34:28,820 you know, we got that tea about this being the next big Bravo 537 00:34:28,820 --> 00:34:33,200 franchise, and I can really see that, because this is a struggle 538 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:38,240 that people in any city or town face, ultimately. So it feels 539 00:34:38,240 --> 00:34:38,780 like 540 00:34:38,779 --> 00:34:42,699 I that is such a good point. It the first episode. If you 541 00:34:42,699 --> 00:34:46,719 haven't, if you haven't watched it, don't let disliking a 542 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,379 housewife or feeling like the offspring are entitled deter 543 00:34:50,379 --> 00:34:53,979 you, because it really is good and they're really giving it. 544 00:34:53,979 --> 00:34:57,039 They're not coming on there and glossing over anything. 545 00:34:57,100 --> 00:35:00,120 Yeah, and like, I mean, while some of them, some of them. Are 546 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,840 legitimately booked and busy. You know, you look at Ava dash, 547 00:35:03,900 --> 00:35:08,160 who we see, and, you know, she's, she's doing it. We see 548 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,340 something that, like Amira, who will talk about, in a minute, 549 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,580 you like, she, you know, and Georgia, who will also talk 550 00:35:14,580 --> 00:35:18,360 about, in a minute, yeah, they're like, they're out there 551 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,560 and they're working. And again, like something, I very much you 552 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,080 know, they're they're making their new group of friends 553 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,520 outside of college. These are all things that that I did as 554 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:35,600 why. So we also have Charlie zacore. He is, was a rich kid 555 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,500 given the title crypto trader, which I found hilarious. He's 556 00:35:39,500 --> 00:35:42,040 like, Yeah, my dad makes a lot of money, and he gives me money, 557 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,360 and then I invest. Yeah, that's really funny. Why? 558 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,840 Sitting at the cafe using his credit card I invest money? Yes, 559 00:35:49,900 --> 00:35:50,680 exactly, 560 00:35:50,740 --> 00:35:55,180 but he's one that we'll be talking about, I think, quite a 561 00:35:55,180 --> 00:35:59,800 bit, because he has been connected to this crypto 562 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,380 scandal, where you don't need to know much about crypto to know 563 00:36:04,380 --> 00:36:07,140 what happened. So there are these two. They call them 564 00:36:07,140 --> 00:36:10,080 crypto. These two crypto bros who live in New York, who are 565 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:15,060 big or who had moved to New York, came big on the club 566 00:36:15,060 --> 00:36:19,860 scene, spending hundreds of $1,000 in a night at the clubs. 567 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,800 They had this brownstone that was rented that the New York 568 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,060 Post is now calling the townhouse of horrors. They lured 569 00:36:29,240 --> 00:36:32,420 this and to be clear, I'm talking about two crypto bros 570 00:36:32,420 --> 00:36:35,240 that are not Charlie. I will tell you guys in a second how 571 00:36:35,240 --> 00:36:38,360 he's leaked. But two crypto bros lured this Italian crypto 572 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,880 investor into their town hosts, and they kidnapped him 573 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,580 essentially for weeks. Trapped him there because they are 574 00:36:45,580 --> 00:36:50,320 trying to get his crypto passwords. Because if you can 575 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,680 get, if you can get into somebody's crypto, essentially 576 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,100 their wallet, you can take it, because everything is very it's 577 00:36:57,220 --> 00:37:02,160 untraceable with crypto. So you guys might remember the email, 578 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,880 and then it'll show you guys how this Charlie guy is attached. So 579 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,000 it says, I'm sure you've seen reports about this crazy case, 580 00:37:09,180 --> 00:37:13,200 two crypto bros slash assholes, kidnapped and tortured. An 581 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:17,460 Italian crypto guy he escaped. Turns out one of the New York 582 00:37:17,460 --> 00:37:22,820 see the next gen NYC kids, Charlie was the guy who 583 00:37:22,820 --> 00:37:28,520 introduced the crypto bros to some of the clubs, etc, shady. 584 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,220 And then it says there's also a picture of him literally 585 00:37:31,220 --> 00:37:34,940 standing at the crime scene when the one was being arrested. 586 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:44,740 So before we met Charlie, prior to the crypto bro scandal, and 587 00:37:44,740 --> 00:37:48,100 again, he introduced them, and maybe he lives in the building. 588 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,980 I don't believe he had anything. There is no connection. As far 589 00:37:50,980 --> 00:37:53,800 as his involvement in torturing this person, that is not what 590 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:58,060 we're implying. He knows the guys. Oh, he knows the guys, 591 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:02,040 which is crazy, and we had heard a lot about him being a rich 592 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:06,900 spoil kid. I actually thought he was more likable and didn't come 593 00:38:06,900 --> 00:38:11,100 off as a spoil brat. Off the bat, he's very good friends with 594 00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:14,940 Brooks. He's from New York City, and I have to tell you guys, if 595 00:38:14,940 --> 00:38:18,600 you've watched Gossip Girl, he's Chuck Bass here, like but 596 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,680 actually a little bit more likable, and it's only the first 597 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,160 episode, like he doesn't seem devious. He's 29 so he's 598 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,640 actually a little bit older than the kids. He is a New York City 599 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,780 rich kid. It gives him access, right? He's had this access to 600 00:38:32,780 --> 00:38:35,720 places because of his wealth from a young age, because of the 601 00:38:35,720 --> 00:38:39,320 connections he has through his father. I'm sure he knows all 602 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:44,500 the movers and shakers, and based off of this, he is the guy 603 00:38:44,500 --> 00:38:47,200 around town that people want to be friends with, right? He gets 604 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:53,620 you in, he gets you access. And, yeah, I think he's, I think he's 605 00:38:53,620 --> 00:38:55,960 going to be a star of the show. Yeah, 606 00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:01,200 I think he's got, he's got swag too, or yes, the kids say, 607 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:01,680 because he's 608 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,780 not, like, really that good looking. I thought it was funny 609 00:39:03,780 --> 00:39:06,120 when somebody's like, he's like, Scott Disick, and then they were 610 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:10,260 like, but he looks like, Neil Diamond, like, he's not very bad 611 00:39:10,260 --> 00:39:13,140 looking, but he's, he's not Scott Disick cute. He's not, 612 00:39:13,140 --> 00:39:18,000 like, super cute, but he's okay. But, yeah, he's cute enough 613 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,320 considering, yeah, 614 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:24,080 you could just tell like he's, he's got some swag. I did a 615 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,320 little bit of digging into him, just because I'm, I'm curious 616 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,280 this whole crypto situation, I think is really interesting. 617 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:35,240 Also just wanted to understand where the wealth comes from. So 618 00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:38,840 first we heard on the show that apparently Charlie used to date 619 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,920 Lindsay Lohan when he was a teenager, and says, quote, 620 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,280 unquote, she used to pick him up from school. So I did Google it. 621 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:50,200 Yes, Charlie's 29 Lindsay Lohan is now 38 so in no way would 622 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:54,280 that have been a legal situation. But according to 623 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,420 everything I've read, and I've always read about kids like this 624 00:39:58,420 --> 00:40:02,040 that grow up and you. Know, Uber wealthy in New York City, and 625 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,180 kind of have the city at their disposal from like, a young Yes, 626 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,840 my cousin actually went to a private school in the city. She 627 00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:14,040 got not a full but a good scholarship, and she knew a lot 628 00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:14,700 of kids like 629 00:40:14,700 --> 00:40:18,240 this, and so he's apparently been at the club since he was 630 00:40:18,240 --> 00:40:22,820 14. So that would all make sense. His dad is an investment 631 00:40:22,820 --> 00:40:27,440 banker who is now retired and does his own private investing. 632 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:32,360 His mom is an art collector who lives in Palm Beach. So his 633 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,320 parents are divorced. It I don't know if they are ever married. 634 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,360 I'm not. I don't I don't know they might be. I just didn't 635 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:45,400 actually dig into that part of it, but like you said, Charlie 636 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,600 has not been charged or arrested in connection with that scandal, 637 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,540 but we will be keeping an eye on this. First of all, just, I 638 00:40:52,540 --> 00:40:55,240 think it's a really interesting story, but second of all, just 639 00:40:55,240 --> 00:41:00,900 to see how things pan out with his connection, back to the 640 00:41:00,900 --> 00:41:04,800 Chuck Bass thing I do. You remember on Gossip Girl How we 641 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,580 bought all the PE peonies in New York? And she thought, then 642 00:41:08,580 --> 00:41:11,160 Blair thought he was trying to sabotage her prom, but he 643 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,580 actually bought them all for her. Yes, I could see him kind 644 00:41:14,580 --> 00:41:23,060 of having this softy side. I agree. But Ava, who is Damon 645 00:41:23,060 --> 00:41:27,500 dashes, daughter who co founded Rockefeller records with Jay Z. 646 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:33,380 Her mom is Rachel Roy, the fashion designer Rachel Roy, you 647 00:41:33,380 --> 00:41:38,180 guys might know is rumored to be the girl in the Beyonce song 648 00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:43,240 that infers there was some sort of affair with Jay Z and called 649 00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:47,920 her Becky with the good hair. So, yeah, I mean, I think Ava is 650 00:41:47,980 --> 00:41:51,700 absolutely gorgeous, like we said, booked and busy, she's 651 00:41:51,700 --> 00:41:58,240 gonna be really interesting to watch. She dated Diana Jenkins 652 00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:02,580 son, I think. And then I also read that she was did some time 653 00:42:02,580 --> 00:42:04,380 as Crystal minkoffs Nanny. 654 00:42:04,620 --> 00:42:08,340 Yes, I think she was actually shown like in the background of 655 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:12,180 Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with Crystal's kids. Yeah, 656 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:17,160 absolute, real deal. I'm a hip hop fan. I love that her father 657 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,740 was in the episode. I hope there's more of that. And her 658 00:42:19,740 --> 00:42:23,480 mom, we see Chloe. Brooks is gorgeous sister. She's heavily 659 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:28,160 featured. We heard she would be there's a lot of kids who are 660 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:33,200 not main cast members. Featured a bunch of Charlie's friends who 661 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,280 seem to be fellow Trust Fund kids on the scene. Charlie and 662 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:42,340 Chloe have a flirty vibe. They go on a date. We see him texting 663 00:42:42,340 --> 00:42:45,940 Brooks, who was rightfully offended, something like, oh, 664 00:42:45,940 --> 00:42:48,280 meet up with us later, unless your sister's back at my 665 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,980 apartment. Not cool? Yeah, 666 00:42:50,980 --> 00:42:57,940 no, I think he yeah. Can see where the drama this may have 667 00:42:57,940 --> 00:43:03,720 been a slightly manufactured or maybe encouraged situation from 668 00:43:03,720 --> 00:43:07,860 producers, but you can also see that Brooks is legit pissed 669 00:43:07,860 --> 00:43:14,940 about it. Yes, okay, so Georgia, who is their friend, she's in PR 670 00:43:14,940 --> 00:43:19,440 like party planning, like a young onesie Hubbard. She 671 00:43:19,500 --> 00:43:23,120 doesn't come from extreme wealth. She's fourth generation 672 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:27,560 New York City. Grew up in the Upper West Side. Says she 673 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:31,640 doesn't call it hustle. She calls it anxiety, but big on, 674 00:43:31,700 --> 00:43:35,720 you know, making friends connections definitely seems 675 00:43:35,720 --> 00:43:40,480 like she's building success on her own. So she 676 00:43:40,780 --> 00:43:45,940 is another representation, and I was so happy that they included 677 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:50,740 her on the cast, because she is the New York City dream, right? 678 00:43:50,980 --> 00:43:55,780 She is the person who we see on the sitcoms the Serena's 679 00:43:55,780 --> 00:43:58,480 boyfriend, whose name escapes me on Gossip Girl. Him and his 680 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,840 sister live in Brooklyn, and their parents are teachers or 681 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,660 something like that, and they have scholarships to the fancy 682 00:44:03,660 --> 00:44:07,500 and I think Dan, they have scholarships to the fancy 683 00:44:07,500 --> 00:44:10,620 school, right that everybody attends. That's Georgia. She's 684 00:44:10,620 --> 00:44:14,820 the kid who didn't have the money, but was there, gained 685 00:44:14,820 --> 00:44:20,600 accents access through her hustle slash anxiety and hard 686 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:25,940 work, and she is earned her spot on the scene. She saw it. It 687 00:44:25,940 --> 00:44:29,240 wasn't her world. She made it her world. She did diplose 688 00:44:29,240 --> 00:44:33,500 party, a rave at cat Stelly, I last laughed my ass off that 689 00:44:33,500 --> 00:44:36,500 none of the kids knew about. Harry and Sally are young, 20 690 00:44:36,500 --> 00:44:40,180 year olds, and they're like, Girl Like, why don't you pick up 691 00:44:40,180 --> 00:44:43,180 what everybody else is laying down like nobody else really 692 00:44:43,180 --> 00:44:45,940 knows what this is, like we do, but stop bringing it up. I felt 693 00:44:46,240 --> 00:44:50,080 Yeah, she was not. She's got a very quirky personality, which I 694 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,620 like. She's very authentic, yeah, and I love that Riley 695 00:44:53,620 --> 00:44:57,280 lived above cat's deli and didn't realize it was like the 696 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,540 most famous deli because of that movie. So quirky. Tricky and 697 00:45:00,540 --> 00:45:04,860 interesting, and then when we hear like the voice from the 698 00:45:04,860 --> 00:45:08,280 bathroom about her not washing her hands, I have to tell you, I 699 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,520 get the germ thing. I'm not a germaphobe, but that's extreme, 700 00:45:12,060 --> 00:45:14,760 and I love that. They were all like, oh my god, she's gonna get 701 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:15,060 pink eye. 702 00:45:15,060 --> 00:45:18,660 I have a lot of things to say about this, because I'm the 703 00:45:18,660 --> 00:45:22,640 same. I am not a germaphobe, you won't find me using hand 704 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,500 sanitizer compulsively. 705 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,280 No, but like, after if I pump gas, I use it. If I'm on a 706 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,620 plane, I use it like there's a time and a place. I'm not 707 00:45:30,620 --> 00:45:33,680 somebody who's spraying it all day long, same exact 708 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:37,700 same scenarios. I agree that some germs are good. I think 709 00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:40,840 it's a bad thing to, like, try to completely sanitize yourself. 710 00:45:41,020 --> 00:45:46,180 But eco E coli, which literally comes from poop, if you ingest 711 00:45:46,240 --> 00:45:51,160 it or get it in your eye, you get, you can get viruses you 712 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:55,300 that's how you get norovirus. Is not washing your hands. And like 713 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,980 I do feel a little bad for this girl, because I feel like this 714 00:45:59,980 --> 00:46:02,400 is going to be something that follows her for the rest of 715 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,520 life, her life, unless she's like, Okay, I now been educated 716 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:09,240 that I do need to wash my hands. Like I feel like it could be 717 00:46:09,240 --> 00:46:12,540 really bad for her business, like I don't blame the other 718 00:46:12,540 --> 00:46:16,200 people for not wanting to hug her. I That would really gross 719 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:17,640 me out. I, and I 720 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,980 would like to sense that she was exaggerating. I, but, I mean, 721 00:46:21,980 --> 00:46:23,900 she didn't wash her hands. I know 722 00:46:23,900 --> 00:46:27,080 I bath for I mean, I am not again. I'm not one of those 723 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:32,060 people who, like, compulsively washes my hands the second I 724 00:46:32,060 --> 00:46:35,000 walk in, like, I just not, but the second I walk into my house, 725 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,740 just because I've been out in public, I don't and like, I try 726 00:46:39,740 --> 00:46:43,060 to make, like, remind my kids, like before, if we sit down to a 727 00:46:43,060 --> 00:46:45,460 restaurant and they're gonna be eating with their hand, like to 728 00:46:45,460 --> 00:46:47,980 go wash their hands, you know, if we've been out doing stuff. 729 00:46:47,980 --> 00:46:51,760 But I'm not again, not compulsive. I do use a paper 730 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,360 towel to exit a public bathroom, and I'm really glad that I do 731 00:46:55,540 --> 00:46:58,060 now that I know that are people who do not believe in washing 732 00:46:58,060 --> 00:47:03,600 their hands. Yeah. Anyway, I am fully sold on Ariana. I think 733 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:07,680 GIA can go and this is not because I'm not a big Teresa 734 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,640 fan, but she doesn't live in the city. She seems scared of the 735 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:17,640 city, and her real only tie is that her mom knows the other 736 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,900 moms, and she's met a couple of them through bravacon. 737 00:47:25,220 --> 00:47:28,400 And I would just like to point something out as far as like 738 00:47:28,820 --> 00:47:32,720 regional and like where they live, versus Manhattan. So there 739 00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:37,760 is Bergen County, where Fessler Margaret and the gorgers moved. 740 00:47:38,300 --> 00:47:42,280 Bergen County is right over the bridge, right in the same way 741 00:47:42,340 --> 00:47:46,120 that Queens Brooklyn, Staten Island and the Bronx you have 742 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,840 easy access to the city Bergen County is the same thing. She 743 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:54,580 lives in, what would be comparable like she's in New 744 00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:59,380 Jersey. Okay? It would be like me being a New Yorker, but 745 00:47:59,380 --> 00:48:02,880 actually being from where? Page disorders from upstate New York, 746 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:08,040 and then going to the city. It take, oh, yeah. It would take. 747 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:12,360 Like, from where do they live? Montville. It would take at 748 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,480 least two hours, or an hour and a half, like, with no traffic. 749 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,820 Forget about the fact that you get stuck in traffic in New 750 00:48:17,820 --> 00:48:24,080 York. I'm googling, yeah. Google it, it would say 50 Okay, so 50 751 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:28,700 minutes to the city. Oh, sorry, 59 minutes, yeah, to the city. 752 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,540 No, which doesn't exist, right? So you're talking an hour and a 753 00:48:32,540 --> 00:48:37,220 half on a Friday after work to get to the city, minimum an hour 754 00:48:37,220 --> 00:48:40,420 and a half. Yeah, you'd have to leave it very off hours for it 755 00:48:40,420 --> 00:48:43,660 to be 55 minutes, so it isn't all 756 00:48:43,660 --> 00:48:47,260 smiles. That's that is. That's, yeah, that's not just it's not 757 00:48:47,260 --> 00:48:50,800 the same as Riley living in Brooklyn. First of all, Brooklyn 758 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,880 is the closest borough, but parts of Brooklyn could take you 759 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,880 longer, but with no traffic, it would never be. The distance 760 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,860 isn't 55 minutes. Traffic in New York City can make it such, but 761 00:49:01,860 --> 00:49:04,620 the distance, the actual distance from Montville, is 762 00:49:04,620 --> 00:49:06,840 that. So that would be like living an hour upstate in New 763 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:10,440 York and just hopping to the city. It doesn't happen. So it 764 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:15,240 doesn't fit in that way. I agree with you. She doesn't, other 765 00:49:15,240 --> 00:49:19,200 than Brooks, who she really only knows from bravocon and Riley, 766 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:22,040 and actually her and Riley don't get along. We've gotten a lot of 767 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,820 emails about it, and actually, Gia made a comment that I don't 768 00:49:25,820 --> 00:49:28,880 know how to please Riley, like I wasn't comp I guess Riley 769 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,820 thought something she said was comparing Teresa to candy, and 770 00:49:32,300 --> 00:49:35,540 Gia is like, I didn't mean to do that. It was just a matter of 771 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,060 saying both our moms were housewives. I guess we'll see 772 00:49:38,060 --> 00:49:41,980 the details of that in upcoming episodes. Riley doesn't like 773 00:49:41,980 --> 00:49:45,520 GIA, yeah, and Gia really isn't heavily featured. She's very 774 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,160 much she was only in it a little bit. Yeah, 775 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:54,100 we'll see how it goes from here. Then we have Amira, who got her 776 00:49:54,100 --> 00:49:58,840 start as a beauty director from Paper Magazine. You know, it 777 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:04,380 says, like new. City has really seen her glow up. I forget what 778 00:50:04,380 --> 00:50:08,340 the word she used, something busted, crusted and dusted when 779 00:50:08,340 --> 00:50:11,580 she came to the city. And then she worked for Victoria with 780 00:50:11,580 --> 00:50:15,180 Victoria's Secret, which she says is really what got her 781 00:50:15,180 --> 00:50:19,620 noticed. And she is a content creator. She went to NYU with 782 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:24,080 Brooks. I love her Instagram bio. She describes herself as 783 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,440 the Barbie you always wanted. And then, of course, as I'm like 784 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,860 looking into her, I got sucked into watching her makeup videos, 785 00:50:30,860 --> 00:50:34,940 which I very much enjoyed. And she's definitely got that it 786 00:50:34,940 --> 00:50:36,620 factor. And I like watching her. 787 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,420 They didn't mention it, but somebody told me ahead of time 788 00:50:40,420 --> 00:50:43,120 that she's trans. I don't know if that's what she meant by her 789 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,940 New York City glow up. I actually asked the person again, 790 00:50:45,940 --> 00:50:48,880 because I'm like, I don't know. I couldn't tell so I don't this 791 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,280 is what I was told. So I assume it's true. That's not like a 792 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:58,180 rumor. Overall. Love New York being the character. Love The 793 00:50:58,180 --> 00:51:02,940 Gossip Girl. Vibes. Pleasantly surprised. I really am so 794 00:51:02,940 --> 00:51:06,000 satisfied with how good it was and it was worth the wait. Yeah, 795 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:09,240 I agree. I was prepared to not like the show after we were told 796 00:51:09,240 --> 00:51:13,260 we might not, because it was made for Gen Z, but I really 797 00:51:13,260 --> 00:51:15,720 liked it. Does that make us Gen Z? It makes 798 00:51:15,720 --> 00:51:18,840 us the parent of people who probably CUSP Gen Z. I don't 799 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,380 think our kids are Gen Z. If they are, they're like, the last 800 00:51:21,380 --> 00:51:22,340 year or something. I 801 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:27,500 yeah, I don't know. I was actually asking my son seemed to 802 00:51:27,500 --> 00:51:29,840 know, but of course, then I've completely forgotten 803 00:51:29,900 --> 00:51:34,340 maybe Jen why I don't know my son argues with my daughter that 804 00:51:34,340 --> 00:51:36,560 he's a different generation. They're three years apart. I'm 805 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,080 like, just logistically, you can't be a different generation. 806 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,300 Yeah, regardless of what the Google Search says the year cut 807 00:51:43,300 --> 00:51:44,020 off is, 808 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:47,260 yeah, you're raising the same house by the same parents three 809 00:51:47,260 --> 00:51:50,500 years right? Part, or your your ages are three years apart, 810 00:51:50,500 --> 00:51:51,700 yeah? So 811 00:51:51,700 --> 00:51:54,160 we don't have much time, but I think we should touch a little 812 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:55,420 bit on the valley. 813 00:51:55,660 --> 00:51:59,740 Yes. Do we want to go straight to the jacks of it all I see 814 00:51:59,920 --> 00:52:06,660 stuff, yeah? Because I texted you this morning, because one of 815 00:52:06,660 --> 00:52:10,740 our friends, a friend of the pod, he's a he's in cocked he's 816 00:52:10,740 --> 00:52:14,220 a cocktail or he's a friend all in cocktail as well. And he's 817 00:52:14,220 --> 00:52:17,580 a content creator, Stone Cold daddy. He makes hysterical 818 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,140 parenting memes fall so 819 00:52:19,140 --> 00:52:24,140 funny, I wanted to start. I wanted to read his comments, and 820 00:52:24,140 --> 00:52:27,440 I asked his permission. He said it was fine, because obviously 821 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:31,940 you guys know, like, we don't we protect everybody's we protect 822 00:52:31,940 --> 00:52:36,740 everybody and but he he is cool with us reading this. So this is 823 00:52:36,740 --> 00:52:41,620 what he said. I completely agree with this, with this take and 824 00:52:41,620 --> 00:52:45,160 ask you if you are cool with us reading it on the pod and you 825 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:50,560 agreed so it says, Bravo needs to get Jax off the television as 826 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:54,100 soon as possible. I'm usually here. This is stone called Daddy 827 00:52:54,100 --> 00:52:56,860 saying this, which is true. I'm usually here to talk shit, but 828 00:52:56,860 --> 00:52:59,740 there's something deeper at stake here. Every minute he's 829 00:52:59,740 --> 00:53:03,840 featured makes the audience complicit in furthering what is 830 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:07,680 obviously a potentially very dangerous situation. He's prone 831 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:11,460 to violent outbursts with a child present. He's prone to be 832 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:15,420 coked up around his kid. We're not talking toxic anymore. We're 833 00:53:15,420 --> 00:53:18,720 talking the roots of clear and present danger. The valley 834 00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:21,920 features him in countless situations where he's surrounded 835 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,700 by people who are not, who aren't holding him accountable 836 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:30,680 and enabling him to continue to behave horribly, friends, family 837 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:36,260 and the god damn that god damned is, he said, network implored 838 00:53:36,260 --> 00:53:41,740 him to go to rehab, and he said f that and made a mockery out of 839 00:53:41,740 --> 00:53:46,420 whatever the F he called rehab, microphones, cameras and 840 00:53:46,420 --> 00:53:50,380 exposure continue to be poured upon someone exploiting the 841 00:53:50,380 --> 00:53:53,560 attention to paint a narrative that there are two sides to 842 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:57,520 every story. If there's two sides, they're both effed, and 843 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,380 so is he. There will already be questions as to why Bravo 844 00:54:01,380 --> 00:54:04,320 allowed him to have a platform for so long, and there's 845 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:09,180 potential questions that they don't want to or won't be able 846 00:54:09,180 --> 00:54:13,080 to answer if this escalates, everything we know about 847 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:18,000 situations that tell like this tell us that unless there is 848 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,340 significant intervention, These things only go in one direction, 849 00:54:22,340 --> 00:54:24,920 straight to health. And then he says, Sorry for yelling. 850 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:31,760 I could not I couldn't have said it so succinctly and very well 851 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,080 said. And I think it sums up what the audience is feeling. 852 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:40,960 And I have a lot of you DMing me, he brings such a dark side 853 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,980 to it, and there's the other side of it that is trying to 854 00:54:44,980 --> 00:54:50,200 group Jesse and now, to some extent, Danny in with him, and 855 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:55,660 you can't compare. As there was a meme that pointed out on 856 00:54:55,660 --> 00:55:00,720 Twitter. It said, You can't compare Jax and Jesse. Yeah, 857 00:55:00,720 --> 00:55:04,620 jax's son appears afraid of him, and Jesse's daughter adores her. 858 00:55:05,100 --> 00:55:07,500 Yeah, Jesse isn't a perfect person, and certainly his 859 00:55:07,500 --> 00:55:10,860 treatment of Michelle has been awful, from what we've seen. But 860 00:55:10,860 --> 00:55:16,020 Jax is dangerous. When the producer broke the third wall to 861 00:55:16,020 --> 00:55:18,540 tell Brittany that Jax was texting her and that there was a 862 00:55:18,540 --> 00:55:22,460 bug in the house and he could hear what they were saying. I 863 00:55:22,460 --> 00:55:24,380 felt like we were in a horror movie. 864 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:30,320 And what's so weird, and this is where I look at Brittany a lot 865 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:35,600 differently after this episode, is that she didn't like freak 866 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,720 out. It was almost like she took it in stride, because she's been 867 00:55:38,720 --> 00:55:44,260 dealing with ABUSE for so long, like she's got to get out of 868 00:55:44,260 --> 00:55:49,240 this, and like I felt for her so hard when we saw Jax be 869 00:55:49,420 --> 00:55:53,440 contrite, and, oh, I'm gonna give her all the money from the 870 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:58,000 podcast, because, you know, that's the right thing to do. 871 00:55:58,240 --> 00:56:02,160 And then a day or two later, sends her this awful email 872 00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:06,720 saying, No, you can't, you know, you can't have it, and just 873 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:08,160 eating her, 874 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,360 it was and so something like that, which, of course, we all 875 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:18,180 know that he does this, right, but seeing him make himself look 876 00:56:18,180 --> 00:56:22,040 like the good guy by Telling Janet and Jason on their 877 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,500 FaceTime call, which, by the way, you guys noted that they 878 00:56:24,500 --> 00:56:27,500 started on an iPhone, they went to an Android. I assumed that 879 00:56:27,500 --> 00:56:30,080 was something with production. Maybe the signal was bad, or, 880 00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:36,380 who knows, but, and then we watch Brittany read the email 881 00:56:36,380 --> 00:56:40,060 that he sent saying, you're on your own to figure out the 882 00:56:40,060 --> 00:56:43,240 mortgage. How about the fact that he also rented that 883 00:56:43,240 --> 00:56:46,360 apartment while she was already paying for a rental. It's just 884 00:56:46,660 --> 00:56:51,520 his behavior is so erratic and frightening. He can't be on the 885 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:52,240 show, but 886 00:56:52,240 --> 00:56:58,900 he is, I guess where I was going. That point is he is 887 00:56:58,900 --> 00:57:06,060 directing his anger at her. He's got so much anger and and, you 888 00:57:06,060 --> 00:57:10,680 know, we know from Jax, his mouth himself, that when he gets 889 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,100 out of this first rehab, he goes right back to his shit, right, 890 00:57:14,100 --> 00:57:17,520 goes back to drinking, goes back to cocaine. And that's when 891 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:22,820 things tend to get really volatile with him, and I just, I 892 00:57:22,820 --> 00:57:29,060 want to see Brittany and Cruz get off of this horrific roller 893 00:57:29,060 --> 00:57:34,520 coaster. Because I, I think whether or not there has been 894 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:38,000 physical abuse other than the table situation that we have 895 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:42,580 heard about there Stone Cold daddy is exactly right. This 896 00:57:42,580 --> 00:57:46,420 isn't headed anywhere good. And I think some of Britney's 897 00:57:46,420 --> 00:57:51,580 reactions are stunted because she is gotten into this cycle of 898 00:57:51,580 --> 00:57:54,160 abuse and doesn't know different. Yeah, 100% 899 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:59,620 I'm like, sorry, my daughter just came in and interrupted me. 900 00:57:59,620 --> 00:58:00,660 What else is new? 901 00:58:00,660 --> 00:58:05,400 I just um, I hope Bravo is hearing us. I think I again, 902 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:10,200 Stone Cold daddy is absolutely right that because Jax has been, 903 00:58:10,260 --> 00:58:14,520 quote, unquote, the star, there is so much enablement. They, you 904 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:20,040 know, they give somebody with a drug and alcohol problem a bar 905 00:58:20,460 --> 00:58:25,460 like, yeah, yeah. It's just he's exactly right. I hope Bravo's 906 00:58:25,460 --> 00:58:26,000 listening 907 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,260 that scene. I mean, so many of this, we haven't, they haven't 908 00:58:30,260 --> 00:58:33,980 shown us, but they've told us about the violence and that 909 00:58:33,980 --> 00:58:38,780 scene, which is mild in comparison to where and he threw 910 00:58:38,780 --> 00:58:41,080 a table at Brittany and physically injured her, I would 911 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:46,360 imagine, was chilling, and I think, as an example, the abuse 912 00:58:46,900 --> 00:58:50,080 that Taylor suffered from. Russell Bravo wasn't aware of, 913 00:58:50,500 --> 00:58:54,940 and when he ultimately committed suicide, they weren't culpable. 914 00:58:54,940 --> 00:58:58,540 They didn't know about the abuse. It wasn't public. We all 915 00:58:58,540 --> 00:59:01,860 know about this. The network made him go to rehab. It 916 00:59:01,860 --> 00:59:05,940 obviously wasn't successful. He hasn't changed. Yeah, so the 917 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,720 next logical step is for us to hear that he won't be on the 918 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,900 show, which I believe we will hear. I can't imagine they're 919 00:59:12,900 --> 00:59:16,440 going to keep him on. I hope that I'm right. Let's hope we 920 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,540 love you guys. Sorry 921 00:59:18,540 --> 00:59:22,460 to end on that. Yeah, sorry to end on a bummer of a note, but 922 00:59:22,580 --> 00:59:25,280 we've got some good stuff for cocktail party that we'll 923 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,280 discuss, and we'll also talk a little bit more about all the 924 00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:33,440 other all the other Valley stuff.

Kristen Doty is gonna have a baby any minute, so keep an 926 00:59:39,260 --> 00:59:43,660 eye out for that news, because I think her due date is might be 927 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,280 today, June 5. Yes, 928 00:59:45,340 --> 00:59:48,640 very close. And I'm so excited, because I feel like I'm gonna 929 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,320 love the baby name too. I 930 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:55,120 know I'm really excited. So we'll be on baby watch for both 931 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:59,920 her and for Nia.
