We've had you 0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:24.799 on the podcast, yes, because Andrew found you at the 0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:26.599 podcast awards right podcast. 0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:29.280 Yes, I watched Watch What Crappens Well. 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:30.000 I listened to it. 0:00:30.000 --> 0:00:32.159 It is a podcast for a very long time, and 0:00:32.200 --> 0:00:34.400 I found the recaps to be hysterical. And then they 0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:35.920 were there and I'm like, I don't think you understand. 0:00:35.960 --> 0:00:37.960 Your impressions get me every time. 0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:39.640 Impressions of what Andrew. 0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:43.360 The Housewives, Yes, specifically the Meredith marks one from Salt 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:44.320 Lake City. 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:48.920 And thank you very much for that, indoorse Man and 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:52.640 also Angik I am greeg I am Greek. I literally 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.600 had Greek food last night, and the entire time I 0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:56.800 was like, I feel like I am Angie. 0:00:56.960 --> 0:00:57.120 Kay. 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:01.720 So you're in Diamond lose their crap over this all 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.319 the time, and I don't watch the show. However, I 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.240 have to say I'm very impressed with the impressions that 0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:09.720 you have done. And you you were echoing in my 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:13.480 brain when we had the Countess Luann on uh, because 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.280 you said, of all the housewives, she's got maybe the 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:19.480 best character arc or a story in general. 0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:21.319 I will say this over and over again. I will 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:24.120 always make my case for Countess Luan. She shows up 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:26.520 in two thousand and eight or nine, whenever the show 0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:31.240 begins as a countess married to big old money like 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.640 built the Panama Canal money while she's taken on old 0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:37.720 money and she's like, I'm a countess and you are 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:42.080 all beneath me. I can play tennis, which it really was. 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:43.800 The Diamond can vouch that it was like kind of 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:44.680 her character. 0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:47.280 Oh, the tennis matches and about her. 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:50.680 Whole thing was that she played tennis and she had manners, 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.840 and she wrote a book then about manners and like 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:57.360 how you should carry yourself at an event. And then 0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.680 she did random things like came out with like plates 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:01.920 with like a line of plates or something like that. 0:02:03.600 --> 0:02:07.320 And then she got divorced and then she winds up 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.280 going down this other path. She winds up like having 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:12.359 sex with a pirate in the Caribbean. 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:13.320 She claims she didn't. 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.040 She claims she didn't, but we all. 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:17.760 Know she said her friend infacted. She just want to 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:18.760 smoke a doobie with the guy. 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:22.120 Well, technically, I guess Sonia did anal with the pirate. 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.160 Yea to make sure that we whip that out, make. 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.240 Sure we know who the pirates with. But for a 0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.920 long time we are we believe that. I mean, her 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:34.600 relationship actually does fall. She is with a new French 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:37.720 guy named Jacques. It falls apart because on TV it 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:39.440 appears that she had sex with a pirate. 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:41.000 Oh, that ruined her relationship. 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:43.080 You know, it's one of the most common things that 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:46.640 can end a relationship. A pirate a certain age, you know, 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:50.959 a pirate rumor, a pirate rumor will take down any 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:56.000 relationship absolutely. And then from there, she now was like single, desperate, 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:59.120 winds up moving into her friend's attic. And the attic, 0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:00.800 by the way, has like a tube TV, like a 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.160 tube TV, like a sharp TV from like two thousand 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.760 and three. Like she's up there in this and there's 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:09.120 no heat in there. Remember, no hot water, you know what. 0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:12.520 So she's so, this former countess is now in the 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.120 attic of a decrepit town home with a tube TV. 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:19.640 And then she meets a man named Tom Dagastino, not 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:22.960 related to the Dagasino you know, grocery fortune. But we 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.600 all like to believe he is. She all thought he was, yes, 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:29.720 and he let us. It's like the pirate rumor, right 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.200 like we we later on found out it was not true. 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.320 But then she has a whirlwind romance with this guy 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:36.840 Tom Dagasino. Turns out he is like fucked half the 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.320 cast and my left by the way, Okay, I just 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.160 want to double I always did every podcast. I'm like, 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:46.680 is this okay? This is airing on? And so she 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:51.240 gets married to Tom, and then within nine months they're divorced. 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.080 And then all of a sudden, she's like wasted in 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.600 a hotel and palm beach. She's arrested and now she's 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:02.160 gone from countess and you know, like the the the 0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:05.480 last word on etiquette. And now she's arrested in Florida. 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:09.600 And then she resurrects herself as a cabaret star and 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:13.680 she is and now she's like a sex kitten and like, 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:16.279 this is like her arc just keeps on evolving in 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:17.320 such fascinating ways. 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.400 It's like it's not even an arc. It's just a rollercoaster. 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:20.480 But there you go. 0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:23.320 It's amazing. And we saw her titties, you know what. 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.040 Like that. I'm I'm jealous. 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:27.360 I wish you would have been here. 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.200 You were again, you were echoing in my head because 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:31.400 I was like, man, Ben would have loved this. 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.080 I would have I would have so much. 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:33.960 It was a good time. 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:34.960 She's just the best. 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:37.320 But we're here to talk about you because you're doing 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.240 all kind of stuff. So you have Watch What Crappens, 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:40.840 which is an it's a podcast. 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:44.760 It's a podcast, but you call it watch well what Crappins? 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:47.680 Well yes, well, I mean technically we do have like 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.280 a video component that we have on Patreon, but it 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.880 would start the name as a parody of Andy Cohen's 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:57.080 show Watch what Happens. Yes, so we started our podcast 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.720 in twenty twelve and we're like, well how about this, 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.960 why don't we make up a pun.

And we 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:09.920 were able to be honest and be like, yeah, we 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:11.480 don't really like it that much. And he was chill 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:13.880 about it. You could tell he wasn't like, how could 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.400 you say something negative about one of my shows? So 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:19.080 I won't say I'm pleasantly surprised. I was just was, 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:21.240 you know, because I kind of felt like that Andy 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:22.600 would be like that. I just you know, it was 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:24.600 just like really cool. It was really cool that he 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:27.080 was so he I feel like he gets it. I 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:30.080 feel like he understands like the whole podcasting vibe and 0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:31.760 like we just have to come in and say our opinions, 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:31.960 you know. 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:36.240 So was it a pincherself moment starting this podcast Watch 0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:36.959 what Crappens? 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:38.560 And now you're on with Andy? 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.280 It was weird to be such an outsider. I'm not 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:43.520 saying that we're an insider now, but like it felt 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:46.079 like we were not on anyone's radar, and especially no 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:48.679 one at Bravo. And then yeah, to now be at 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.600 a place where actually sitting in a studio with Andy Cohen, 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:52.720 it is kind of full circle. 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:53.800 Do the Housewives follow you? 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:56.120 We do have housewives who follow us?

Uh, Luanne, Luanne follows us. 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.079 Luanne is a follower man, she is on it. 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.640 She is great, like anytime she likes something, and I 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.520 just see count just Luanne like this. I just because 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:21.120 I also imagine her looking at something like hmmm, they 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:25.640 posted a picture of an animal following over. I like that. 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:29.840 So a little behind the scenes here. When she came 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:32.200 in her people there wasn't it wasn't even people. 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:33.679 A guy who was with her. 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:36.240 Oh, they left and then they said, hey, we don't 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:38.040 want you guys to air X, Y and Z. And 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:40.240 I was like, well, we're not gonna do that. One, 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:42.680 we're not gonna put all of it on camera, which 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.320 just a podcast, it's gonna be all audio. But two, 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:47.160 once we have all of it, you can't then come 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.160 back and tell us don't do these things. Then Luanne 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:51.680 ended up sending me a message I didn't get for 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:54.360 days until after it had been released. 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:55.640 Yes, and I'm like. 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.640 Oh shit, she's gonna be so upset because we aired 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.120 some of these things that they didn't want us to, 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:02.400 the flash shore boobs, but she flashed us vaping in 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:04.720 the studio, which I mean that would have gotten aust 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:06.840 In trouble more than no one can because you are 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:09.160 not a lot of smoking here. But we air them, 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:11.560 we put them in this little trailer, and she likes. 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:11.800 All of it. 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:15.240 Of course she gets it. She's like, oh, I was 0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:20.520 fabulous in that moment, and I think she was. The 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:22.960 way I vaped, I really am an icon. 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:25.520 Ye, it was amazing. 0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:27.240 Aren't you trying to go to the cabaret? Oh? 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:28.679 I want to go to the cabaret so bad. It's 0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:29.640 in October, I think. 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:31.880 Right, we're gone. I think it's November sixteenth or something like. 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:32.760 That's on my calendar. 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:33.320 I'm ready. 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.320 Okay, Yeah, you're gonna have a fun time. So the 0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:37.600 first time I went, I went to her first tour, 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.920 which was probably like twenty eighteen or so, and so 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:44.920 she really only was prepared to sing three songs. I 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:47.520 think so. But it was actually really good because she 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:50.040 would come out and she would sing like, you know, 0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:52.400 she'd say lovey, which is one of her one of her. 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.040 Bossles I heard, I heard all the time, and I 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:55.400 can't believe you didn't break into song. 0:10:58.080 --> 0:10:59.439 And then what she would do is she would sing 0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:01.640 one song and then she would just leave and have 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:04.720 a costume change, and then while she was off stage 0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:08.520 shot like she would have like Broadway people like Cheyenne Jackson, 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:12.360 oh wow, or I forget their names, but people would 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.800 come on and they would like sing like numbers and 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:18.440 they were like amazing singers. So you'd have like Luanne 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:20.760 doing her campy thing, and then you get like real 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.120 big deal caparet and then Luan again, and it was 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.760 like kind of the best thing ever. She plays the 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:30.640 bongos else on there. She like has like a moment 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:32.440 she pulls up bongos and she's like, look at me, 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:38.760 a musician. Bongo bongo Bongo's. 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.480 Very Matthew mcconaugheyfer So you said when Andy asked you 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:43.079 if you liked a new season, the new am I 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:46.520 even saying it correctly. You can say the new season 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.920 of Ronnie, the cast of Ronie, the new whatever, the reboot, 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:52.600 what don't you like about it? I'm asking the entire 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:54.520 room too. I want Ben first, but then Diamond's over 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:55.520 there rolling her eyes so hard. 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:56.080 I can feel it. 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.920 Diamond and I are very bonded on this. I feel Yep, 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:01.679 they got rid of the entire cast. Okay, the cast 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:03.559 previously was like Countess the wimb But it's like a 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:05.520 lot of women from the Upper east Side who were 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.680 women of a certain age who would go out to 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:11.520 the Hampton's and they were just like they lived a 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:15.240 very sheltered life and lived in a bubble and would 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:18.360 sometimes say like wildly offensive things and they just had 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:20.880 just and they would get wasted, and they just had 0:12:21.120 --> 0:12:24.080 a very like Upper east Side mentality and you'd just 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.000 be like, I can't believe I'm what I'm watching. And 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.600 they replaced it with a bunch of like young, hip, 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.600 fabulous women who you just want to be your best friends. 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:37.920 And I'm like, I want best friends. I want to 0:12:37.960 --> 0:12:40.760 look at like I want to look at women who 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.160 have had their marriages, they've had their children, and their 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:46.720 kids are all off to college, and now they're getting 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:49.440 drunk and they're having sex and they're going to like 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:52.560 the Regency on a Wednesday night and they're just out 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:53.719 of pocket. I love that. 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:55.280 So the new one's just like too. 0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:59.280 It's like it's an influencer from Brooklyn. 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:02.199 I'm already bored with it and I haven't even started 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:02.439 watching it. 0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:02.679 Yea. 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:04.880 It wants to see inside the world's up an influencer, 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:08.680 Like that's their job. We already see it. I want 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.000 to go behind. I want to get into communities I 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:13.400 don't have access to and want to see how they 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.800 operate and see how they in their logic works, you know, 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:19.760 because I have a hard time reconciling how you can 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.720 like live in society and say and think these things, 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:25.400 Like I don't like going into the world of an influencer. 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:29.080 That's not me, Like that's not exposing anything new to me. 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:32.440 Like I know, it's like there's there's no like gated community. 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:34.440 There there's nothing. There's no nothing I have to push 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.160 through to be like, Wow, I'm finally understanding something. It's 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:40.160 just like, no, you're opening boxes on Instagram. 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:52.040 Then I'm sick of it, Diamond, what. 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.679 Is your I say that as someone who opens. 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.680 Boxes, I don't need to see more of me I need. 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:05.800 I just miss the organic relationships that the women had, 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:11.319 Like we heard stories about the fact that like castmates 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:14.360 would hang out and do lunches while their kids were 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:16.440 in school together and stuff like that, and these some 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:19.280 of these arguments would be from like things that happened 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:23.640 twenty years ago, like Sonya and Ramona arguing over literally 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:27.480 address from like the early two thousands and they were 0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:30.000 arguing about it in twenty fourteen or something like that. 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.800 Like I miss that, like these actual organic relationships, whereas 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:36.560 like we're watching the New Ronny and they're like basically 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:38.440 saying Hi, nice to meet you on camera. 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:39.920 It's it's very weird. 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:42.640 Diamond, It's totally right, like those relationships also on Ronnie, 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.280 Like on top of everything else that I said, those 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.440 relationships are real, and they are they go back a 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:51.920 long time, and they're very intertwined and there's like a 0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.000 lot of layers there that's like really watchable. 0:14:55.680 --> 0:15:00.440 Which interesting take notes you're gonna boar with your castmates. 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.840 A very long and detailed response to because. 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.520 I have no idea and I would love to one. 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.520 I want to know your thoughts on the Jersey Housewives 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:11.320 and if that in fact needs to be completely revamped, 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:13.640 clean house, or if you think they can rebuild from 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:14.040 where they are. 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:16.760 Yeah, I don't know, Honestly, I don't know with that one, 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:19.480 Like if they decide to fully refresh it, I would 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:21.720 be okay with that because I think unlike New York, 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:23.960 I don't think they're going to say, Okay, here's the 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:26.160 new New Jersey, here's all the movers and shakers that 0:15:26.200 --> 0:15:27.800 you want to be your best friends. I think they'll 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:31.600 just find some more crazies and tend to fly, and 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:38.360 you know, they'll find like like Marisa Antonia and you know, 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.360 like Joanna, Jody Goldfarb or whatever. I don't know. 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:44.080 It just feels like that era of TV, like the 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:47.000 New Jersey fan has gone, like it's coming gone, Like 0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:50.080 Jersey Shore was a moment that led to Mob Wives, 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.320 that led to like all the Jersey shows that came out. 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.080 I feel like we're kind of past that era of 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:54.880 Jersey TV. 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:58.640 My hot take is that there's always room for some 0:15:58.680 --> 0:15:59.800 like Jersey Rupperknacking. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.080 I went to a charity dinner not too long ago 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:04.800 in Jersey, like in I forget which city it was, 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:06.680 but it was in Jersey, and when I walked in, 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:10.000 I was like, wow, yeah, the hair almost took me out. 0:16:10.280 --> 0:16:11.720 You can get too close to people. It was like 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.840 natural social distancing because it was so big. 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.040 Yeah. I think that like Jersey will be fine because 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:18.880 there's so many characters in New Jersey, and I think, actually, 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:20.400 like they just have to I don't want them to 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.520 go into like a fan beliep kind of place like Mob. 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:25.720 I think the show is like, see, I like Mob. 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:26.640 I want Mob. 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:28.880 I love like the Mob wives, like I want that 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:35.640 he discovered his greed. 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:37.880 Okay, okay, well either way, I think I think that 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:39.880 they can reboot it and be very successful. I think 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.080 they can also bring back some people and I'll still work. 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:44.680 I think Jersey is just such a cartoony place on TV. 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:47.440 Like in real life. I know there's more to it 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:49.560 than that, but like on TV, it's just like a 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.360 whole big, cartoony, silly place. So I think they'll be fine. 0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:54.080 I think that they won't fall on the same track 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.960 trap as New York, where it's like, no, we're going 0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:59.560 to show it the real New York, and real New 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:04.360 York is full of young, hot, fashionable people. It's like, yeah, 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:07.080 that's true, but it's not like good TV. But like Jersey, 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:08.159 they don't have to worry about it. 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.160 Just walked the streets of Williamsburg and see it. Yeah, 0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:12.679 you need that ridiculous stuff. 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:14.840 Yeah, it's more like it's not so much that I'm 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.679 team Melissa. I'm just more team not Teresa. There's no 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:22.000 reasoning with her, and I think that she's like pretty toxic. 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.560 And I agree that Melissa when she's every time she's like, 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:27.560 you know, I just want to like I just want 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:29.240 to bring this family together. I always felt like that 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:33.600 was so insincere. But I do like the new version 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:35.960
