1
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: So I keep hearing about the Salt Lake City finale,

2
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: and I have so many thoughts before even watching it.

3
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to watch it, and I'm going to tell

4
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: you what I think after I watch it, but having

5
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 1: not watched it, I want to tell you what I

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 1: think about the whole concept beforehand. Okay, So people like

7
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: Jennifer Lawrence are saying it was the most riveting television

8
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: they've ever seen, and you know how people like Julia

9
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: Roberts on watch What Happens Live talking about housewives in general,

10
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: and the medium and the genre has evolved, devolved changed,

11
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: and here's what I really think. So what was explained

12
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: to me was that this girl seems like a sociopath

13
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: and that she's the villain, she's happy to play the villain,

14
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: that she was a show fan, that she had to

15
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: hate account. People have hate accounts about me. People that

16
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: I know on the Housewives have had many people who

17
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: have had hate accounts about them. And what I do

18
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: know to be true is while you make some friendships,

19
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: like friendships, like people that you can enjoy, people that

20
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: I like, like Sonya, who I text occasionally, but not

21
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: that I see every day, not people that you know

22
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: you've been able to sustain as a ride or die.

23
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: It's next to impossible to sustain a ride or die

24
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: on the Housewives. So I know that Teresa and Melissa

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: weren't BFFs, but like, it's really disintegrated their relationship. Look

26
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: at Dina Manzo and her family disintegrated relationships. Nini's been

27
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: through so many relationships. It really took a toll on

28
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Jill and my relationship, which hadn't been going on that

29
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: long beforehand. It didn't have the strong foundation that some

30
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: might have before going in there, and still disintegrated Carol

31
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: in myself. It goes on and on, Eric and List

32
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: So we're locked.

33
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: At the hip. Best friends.

34
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: Yes they're friendly now, but they're not the same level

35
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: of friendship. Because the show makes you need these alliances.

36
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: It just makes the concentration strategic. And it's not intentional.

37
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 1: It's not on purpose. You're not just saying, oh, sometimes

38
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: you are. Sometimes people are being friends with someone or

39
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: aligning or having allegiances or alliances because of the show.

40
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: They know the show's coming back. They've got to have

41
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: people to cling on to. Everyone's going to hate them

42
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: once everybody hates one person. It's a feeding frenzy. Every

43
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: scene is about that. You know, what goes up must

44
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: come down, and it's a zero sum game. Someone's always

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: hated or loved. But what I will say is that

46
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: it is next to impossible to sustain positive relationships, whether romantic.

47
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: But that's easier than friendships because with romantic the spouse

48
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: or the boyfriend is usually not is not the main character,

49
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: so they can not film much and they're not as

50
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: much on the front lines. So now we realize that

51
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: a lot of it's not real, that a lot of

52
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: it's manufactured.

53
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: That people.

54
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: Go to jail, that people have sort of alter egos,

55
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: that people have secret lives, infidelity, owe people money, have

56
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: illegal practices, have different scandals associated with them. So we

57
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: realize that a lot of this is fraudulent. We realize

58
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: that people definitely don't have the money they.

59
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 2: Say they do.

60
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: They may not live in the cities they're pretending to

61
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: live in, they may not own the houses they're pretending

62
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: to own in or the cars they're pretending to own.

63
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: So it's all pretty fraudulent and it's really for theatrics.

64
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 2: No problem.

65
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: The Hills was similar, So now we're trying to assign

66
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: real relationships to a show that is based on casted relationships.

67
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: The relationships and the friendships for the most part, and

68
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: the tight knit aspect of.

69
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 2: The group is usually not real.

70
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: People become friends with the people, or spend time with

71
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: the people, or have to go on vacation with the

72
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: people because they're working with them, they're filming with them.

73
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: It's no different than you working down the office from

74
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Jane that you may have to go to a company

75
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: retreat with, or you may have to see in the breakroom,

76
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: or you just see it work every day. You're not

77
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: hanging out with them or doing holidays with them. So

78
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: now it's this alternate universe where you're friends with people,

79
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: you're not friends with them, and it's the upside down

80
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: because you think it's real and it's not. And I've

81
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: never ever learned more about people than when we've gotten

82
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: off the show. That's when I really start to like

83
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 1: a lot of the housewives because I'm not on the

84
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 1: battlefield with them. I don't have to see them either

85
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: as sort of a manufactured alliance or an enemy. They're

86
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: just people that I know socially that I'll see out

87
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: and I can appreciate for who they are. They don't

88
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: have to be my everything, they don't have to be

89
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: my nothing. So now you have a person who was

90
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: a fan and wanted some level of fame and had

91
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: accountants and wanted on that show so badly, and this

92
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: person got what they wanted. They don't care about any

93
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: of these people, and maybe they're more authentic than most

94
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: because they're walking into this experience saying I'm coming in,

95
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: I'm on the battlefield. No one really cares about anybody

96
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: else in this whole experience, So I'm gonna walk in

97
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: that way. I'm walking in not giving a shit. I'm

98
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: walking in casting myself not as somebody who's going to

99
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: be beloved, but as the villain. So while everybody's around

100
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: here pretending everybody's best friends, and I've been filtrated this

101
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: group of really good friends, which is bullshit because all

102
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 1: these people are constantly trashing each other and fighting. Anyway,

103
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: I'm walking in as a villain. So when I get

104
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: caught as a villain, and I get caught as being

105
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: someone who hates these people, I'm dispassionate because I never

106
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,799
Speaker 1: promised any of them anything.

107
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 2: None of them are paying my rent.

108
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 1: I came in here for fame, for relevance, for reality TV,

109
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: the bag of bullshit that it is.

110
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 2: So this woman.

111
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,919
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it yet, but from what I understands,

112
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: it seems like a sociopath because she acted like she

113
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: was friends with everybody and played this role where she

114
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: was part of this group when she was really their enemy.

115
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: I completely understand why this other woman, Heather, would feel

116
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: completely violated, also by production and by the whole entire experience,

117
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: because she feels like she's sleeping with the enemy. She's

118
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: living in the same house with the enemy. But on

119
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: reality TV, most people are the enemy. I've seen people

120
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: that have called up shows where I'm supposed to do

121
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: a hosting gig for shows, called up shows these people

122
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: are supposed to be my friends, and called up those

123
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: shows and said, why Bethany not me, I'm so much

124
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: better than her. I've had people call up brands that

125
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 1: I'm working with and say why not me. I've had

126
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: every single situation where different.

127
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 2: Housewives have trashed me.

128
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: I've had Andy Cohen trashed me to other housewives, and

129
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: other housewives trash me.

130
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 2: To Andy Cohen.

131
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: This is what goes on in this environment. So for

132
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: someone like Jennifer Lawrence. To love it as entertainment, that's

133
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: one thing. But whether it's Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts, or

134
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: Jane in the cul de Sac in Ohio, they all

135
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: need to know that these are actual, real human beings

136
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: on these shows playing a role.

137
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: It's like, entertain me, you're in front of the king.

138
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: They're jesters. Entertain me at any cost. It doesn't matter.

139
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna go to jail, You're gonna be accused of something.

140
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: Someone's gonna rat someone out, someone's gonna have a hate

141
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: account on someone, someone's gonna say that someone's money isn't real.

142
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: It's all's fair in love and war in this thing.

143
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: And so maybe in some cases now I'm starting to

144
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: realize that everybody, I guess does have to realize what they.

145
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: Sign up for.

146
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: I did not know that that's what I was signing

147
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: up for all those years ago, which is why I

148
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: left multiple times. So now I'm gonna say the public

149
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: service announcement to anyone signing up for reality TV, you

150
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: are signing up to possibly go to jail, be called

151
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: a fraud, be called a cheat, or be called a liar,

152
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: to be tempted to actually be a cheater, to actually

153
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: be a liar, to want to pretend you have more

154
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: money than you actually do, to want to rent cars,

155
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: to keep up with the jones, is to have to

156
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: look rich. It doesn't matter if you are rich. It

157
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: just matters if you look rich. It doesn't matter if

158
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: you're a good person. It just matters if the audience

159
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: thinks you're a good person. It doesn't matter if you're

160
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: a villain. As long as you're a good villain that

161
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: people love to hate. You need to be loved or

162
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: someone who people love to hate. Don't get stuck in

163
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: the middle. That's the riptide. That's when you get fired

164
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: from the show. So if you're trying to be famous

165
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: and you're going in there and you want to be relevant,

166
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: whoever that girl is, I think her name is Monica.

167
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: She accomplished her goal. So I don't know if she's

168
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: a sociopath. I don't know if she's a genius. It

169
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. She walked in, she was a nobody, and

170
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: now everybody's talking about her, and she's a somebody. You

171
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: go in, you have an affair, You fuck around with

172
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: somebody that you know. Alas Vanderpump rules, and the show

173
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: has higher ratings and had so scandal sells, hate sells,

174
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: hate accounts sell and evidently being a villain or being

175
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: a sociopath also sells. It's all about the Benjamin's baby,

176
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: It's all about business, the production company, Bravo, and that girl.

177
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: They're all winning, and so are the victims. Heather's winning too.

178
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: Everybody's winning because none of it's real, none of it

179
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,479
Speaker 1: ever mattered, And no one should walk into reality television

180
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: or the Housewives for that matter, thinking this is where

181
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: you're going to forge real, genuine, authentic, meaningful, spiritual, deep

182
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: relationships that enrich your life.

183
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,839
Speaker 2: It's a cesspool, it's a garbage dump.

184
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: Go in there and get dirty and grab everything you

185
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: can and pay those women anything that they want because

186
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: they're in the mudpit getting dirty and it might.

187
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 2: Just affect the rest of their lives.

188
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: Exploitation with comp compensation, that's what they should get. So

189
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: what strikes me about the Salt Lake City Monica character

190
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: is that within the show, we're seeing these trolls that

191
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: we see on tiktoks. There are hate pages about people.

192
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: People host live instagrams and TikTok events where they just

193
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: trash other people and speculate on their lives, their money,

194
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: their sex, their relationships, and they thrive on it. And

195
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: there are a lot of these trolls. This is a

196
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: very common thing. It's just that she's in plain sight. Now.

197
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 2: We see it all the time, people thriving.

198
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: And the funny thing about it is that everyone's acting

199
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: so surprised because the name of the game on Housewives,

200
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: the name of the game, the number one name of

201
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: the game on.

202
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 2: Housewives is exposed.

203
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: Everybody's everything, So anybody would have exposed jen Shaw. This

204
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 1: girl is just doing it as a sniper from the side.

205
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: Everybody exposes everything. It could be something Luan's kids are doing.

206
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: It could be something jen Shaw's doing. It could be

207
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: something that anyone has in their past. Everything has to

208
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: come to the surface on Housewives. That's what the producers want,

209
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: That's what Bravo wants.

210
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: There can be no secrets.

211
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: Why is it that we have Teresa talking about Melissa's

212
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: husband Joe and speculations about women that he's been with.

213
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: Why is everybody always digging to look for stuff on

214
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: Teresa's husband, Like everybody's acting like this isn't how everybody

215
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: is And this is what the name of the game is.

216
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: This is just a situation where the person didn't probably

217
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: really as they'd ever get on the show, and they

218
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: had this account doing it.

219
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 2: But you can ask anyone.

220
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: I've seen dms to and from Jill and Derinda and

221
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: everybody from this franchise. With people gossiping, that's how people

222
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: find a lot of their information. People civilians text Housewives

223
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: and give them information and then they bring it into

224
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: the show.

225
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 2: This happens with everyone.

226
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: This woman just reflects something that is completely rampant and

227
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: that we've all seen a million times. It's just that

228
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: now she's a cast member. That's what makes it so different.

229
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:41,119
Speaker 1: But I have had so many people from the show, Sonya, Derinda,

230
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: all of them show me and talk to me about

231
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: messages that fans have sent saying this is this, this

232
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: one's doing that, Ramona is doing this, Sonya's doing that.

233
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 2: That's not real. This isn't real. That's not a real job,

234
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 2: it's not a real product.

235
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: That business person really wanted to go into business with me,

236
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: the Tipsy Girl guy, for example, that guy I wanted

237
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: to go into business with. This one and that one

238
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: and the other one. Everything about the Housewives is about

239
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: information and dirt as currency. This is just the one

240
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: episode that is highlighting and showcasing it, and the four

241
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: women standing on the beach looking aghast as if this

242
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: is something so shocking. They're just shocked that the wolf

243
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: is in sheep's clothing living in their house. But everybody

244
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: is an iteration of this the sala He's crashed a

245
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: party at the White House that they were grifters. Jenshaw

246
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: went to jail for fraud. Erica Jane's husband was defrauding

247
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: people out of their retirement and taking playing crash victims money.

248
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: Dorrit and p K have been accused of owing people

249
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: money and things not being what they seem. Kyle's husband

250
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: accused of infidelity, like Luan trying to Alley that Dennis

251
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: and I were cheating while he was still married or

252
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: because I was still legally married.

253
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 2: This is the name of this game.

254
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: So that's why when I see people like Jennifer Lawrence,

255
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: who I'm a big fan of glamorizing it, or John

256
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: Hamm or Julia Roberts, they don't realize what this entire

257
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: cesspool that I was knee deep in the middle of

258
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: for several years perpetuates and It was never as bad

259
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: as it is now. It is another level now, Garcelle

260
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: her Son, he was getting threats online. Wasn't Lisa werenna

261
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: accused of being some account or of calling some publicist.

262
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: Wasn't the dog in Lisa vander Pump. Wasn't there a

263
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: situation where there was, like some other publicists, the source

264
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: talking about that dog or that situation with that dog

265
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: gate It's endless. Was it Jill Zarren's assistant who asked

266
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: for the funeral to be filmed? This is what this

267
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: show is about. This is just the single crystallization of

268
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: this aspect. Every successful member of this franchise is guilty

269
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: of this crime.

270
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the beginning. Let's go back to

271
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 2: the book Coop.

272
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: Without a badge on the table to expose Danielle in

273
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: her past engage, nineteen times criminal record, blah blah blah,

274
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: Alex McCord nude pictures. That's what this show is about.

275
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: And anyone that wants to pretend that this show is

276
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: about female empowerment, women elevating women, women supporting women laws

277
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: is delusional. It's about the demise of women. It's about

278
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: the gotcha of women. It's about the trashing of women.

279
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: It's about the catching other women in mistakes. It's about

280
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: finding out that someone's not worth the amount that they

281
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: say they're worth, that they're sleeping with someone who they

282
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: say they're not sleeping with, that they don't really come

283
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: from where they come from, that their accent isn't really real.

284
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: That's what the entire show is about. Accountability to the core,

285
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: but to a damaging effect. People have gone to jail.

286
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: Multiple people have gone to jail. How many mugshots like

287
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: That's what the show is about. So any person celebrating

288
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: the show is celebrating that I walked out twice. Someone's

289
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: got an addiction issue, someone's over consuming.

290
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: What's happening.

291
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: Is it being handled, No, it's being exposed. Is it

292
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: under the guise of being for their best interest?

293
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 2: Baby? Is it truthfully? Just gotcha?

294
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: They say that they're recovering, and we know that they're drinking.

295
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: Bring it to the table. When Jill's Arren and I

296
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: came back after a summer hiatus, the first thing she

297
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: said to me is you didn't call Bobby when he

298
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: had cancer. It didn't matter if that was entirely true.

299
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: The first thing I said to Carol when I came back,

300
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: was that Adam wanted to be paid for a relief trip.

301
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: The point of the matter is the rules of engagement

302
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: on the Housewives are dig up every piece of dirt

303
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: that you can put it in the middle, because it

304
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: takes the energy, emphasis, and focus off of you and

305
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: puts it on someone else. What kind of worse example

306
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 1: can we set for our daughters than that? Do another rant?

307
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 1: Once I watch, I don't think it will be all

308
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 1: that different.

309
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 2: Watch what happens.

310
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: So I finished the Salt Lake City finale, and it's

311
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: a very interesting dynamic because the one girl, Monica, is

312
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: the gossip girl, and it sounds like her account is

313
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: definitely comprised of information from a lot of different people.

314
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: That's what happens in this sphere. It's constant exchanging and

315
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 1: lots of dms from civilians, from people in the Bravo

316
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: crossover sphere, and that's what basically happens. And that's why

317
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 1: things like Bravocon really concentrate all of that, because Bravocon

318
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: is like a massive Bravo trip, Like if the Real

319
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: Housewives of New York go to Mexico, Bravocon is bringing

320
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: all of the different shows into one place, so it's

321
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: that in greater scale, and that's where all kinds of

322
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: information is shared and everything does come to light. And

323
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: this girl walked in as one of these troll blogger

324
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: people that takes other people down. She's just a Hall

325
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 1: of Fame version of what all housewives do, which is

326
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,479
Speaker 1: constantly dig up and expose information about each other. This

327
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: woman just did it in a very stealthy and sleuth

328
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: like manner where she was the self elected villain who

329
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: was going to accumulate all of this gossip about a

330
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: bunch of different people. And it did sound like it

331
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: did start with Jenshaw and she said the rest were

332
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: collateral damage because people just talk about everyone. That's just

333
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: what this is about. And the name of the game

334
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: is exposure. And all of the girls, I actually think

335
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 1: the girls say, I don't know the show that well,

336
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 1: but I've met Lisa and they all seem like fairly

337
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: nice people overall. It's just the nature of this beast

338
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: that it's killed or be killed. And they weren't very

339
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: articulate in just screaming at each other and you're a

340
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: piece of shit, and you're a piece of shit, And

341
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: it did sound like there's a lot more under the surface.

342
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: And while yes, it's villainous and heinous and and you know,

343
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 1: a very explosive finale, none of it's really surprising because

344
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: it's just a crystallization, a condensation, an ultimate reflection of

345
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: what this entire atmosphere is about. And there are no

346
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 1: secrets and anybody who decides to do this show needs

347
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: to just know that because they're all just playing the

348
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: game well, which is why they're now going to have

349
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: a reunion about this. And I don't even know that

350
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: the girl will be asked to leave the show or

351
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 1: they'll have something of her next year. Probably a lot

352
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: of people won't film with her. It's shocking, but it's

353
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: not ultimately it's shocking. It was like shock value, but

354
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: it's not ultimately surprising because it's just a more I

355
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: keep saying, concentrated version of what's going on everywhere in

356
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: this space.

357
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 2: Is it disgusting? Yes? Do any of these women need

358
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 2: to adore this? No? Do they choose to endure this? Yes?

359
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 2: Are they being paid to endure this? Yes? Is any

360
00:20:58,640 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: of it real?

361
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: No? Because you're going on TV and you're doing press

362
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: about this, you're perpetuating this you're being paid to dig

363
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 1: up all of everybody and yourselves dirty laundry. Jennifer Lawrence

364
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: and Julia Roberts get to play other characters.

365
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 2: They don't have to be.

366
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: On screen playing themselves in the name of the game

367
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: called gotcha and trash somebody else, So you're not getting

368
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: trashed in that moment. It's just all strategy. It's just

369
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: all hunger games and Game of Thrones. And when we

370
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 1: first started out years ago, it wasn't like that because

371
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: it wasn't just there wasn't decades and hundreds of women's

372
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: worth of cattiness and competitiveness and jealousy and bringing the

373
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 1: worst out in women. It just wasn't like that. It

374
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 1: was a fresh, blank slate. And then add social media,

375
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: add fake Instagram, TikTok accounts, ad trolls, add cyber bullying,

376
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: add all of it. People are miserable, and people viewing

377
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: this it makes them feel better. It's just gossip that's

378
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 1: not on them. It's the same thing in a macro scale,

379
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: like the people viewing at home, it's like, thank god,

380
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: they just don't have to talk about what's going on

381
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: in their own lives or their infidelity or their miscarriage

382
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: or their financial issues, because they get to talk about

383
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: the people on the screen, so they don't have to

384
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: be the one in their own call de sac being

385
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: talked about. This is just a gigantic public cul de

386
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: sac where you just want the bag of shit to

387
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: be on anybody but yourself, and this one girl was

388
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: holding many people's bags of shit. She's got the bag,

389
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: you know. It's basically, let's take it all of the

390
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: bag of shit. But that's what the whole entire thing

391
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: has been for years, whether it's Teresa's tax evasion, Jenshaw

392
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 1: being a criminal, Luan going to rehab getting arrested. That's

393
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: what the show's about. Don't be so surprised. Just think

394
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: about it. I'm not defending a sociopath or a troll

395
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 1: or a person who runs hate accounts. That's an animal

396
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: in and of itself. I'm just saying that every woman

397
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: who is so aghast at this compilation of information all

398
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: does the same thing, just not in one concentrated format.

399
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 1: It's just that this is a switchboard for all this

400
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: gossip about this one group. This hate account is just

401
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: a formalized accumulation of hateful gossip, which is what The

402
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: Housewives is all about all day, air day with every

403
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: woman doing it to each other in the name of

404
00:23:53,880 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: ratings and money. Successful accounts like Desmois are basically a

405
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: combination of sources that provide vetted information about different people

406
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: in the media, reality television, celebrities, etc. And then that

407
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: information is combined and then disseminated to the public. And

408
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: that's a real credible site that has a podcast, and

409
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: they're giving the tea. They're basically spilling the tea that

410
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: they've collected from mostly reliable and credible sources with some exception.

411
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: So the fact that an entire cast and society would

412
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 1: be agast at this, people are just aghast at the

413
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 1: fact that this girl got away with it. But what

414
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: she got away with was doing a combination and a

415
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: culmination of the same thing every other person in this

416
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,679
Speaker 1: entire medium and genre does. Was it any different than

417
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: when everybody had you dig to the bottom of the

418
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 1: barrel and get all the meat off the bone. As

419
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: to what Kathy Hilton did or did not say to

420
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: Lisa Rinna in that van an Aspen, or what happens

421
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 1: on The Real Housewives of Orange County when the cameras

422
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: go down after dark, and the girls are using their

423
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: personal phones to film everything that happened because it all

424
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: has to be spilled out onto the table. Nobody's safe,

425
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: nobody's secrets are safe. So this was just somebody that

426
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: orchestrated and organized it and pulled one over on anyone else.

427
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying any of it's right, because it's

428
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: all disgusting and I was part of it. But I'm

429
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: saying no one should be shocked and aghast, and that

430
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: this girl should not be excommunicated from this church any

431
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: more than anyone else. That would just be bullshit. Let's

432
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: not forget this is the name of this game. Please

433
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: do not act, Please do not act surprised. But also

434
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: people who are for female empowerment and women supporting other

435
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 1: women shouldn't pretend that this genre and this vehicle does that,

436
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: because this is part and parcel for what this entire

437
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 1: medium does.

438
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: No surprise is there
