Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod which Teddy Mellencamp and Camra Judge.
Speaker 2: Hi, guys, welcome to another episode of to Teas and
Speaker 2: a Pod with myself, Teddy Mellencam and Tambridgeadge. How's it going.
Speaker 3: It's going well, it's not going great because I am
Speaker 3: sitting on a heating pad right now. I've been running
Speaker 3: a lot, and my knees started hurting, and I know
Speaker 3: it's not my knees. I know it's my back because
Speaker 3: you know I have my neck. My back not crack, No,
Speaker 3: I have versidas. I'm trying to find out from my
Speaker 3: prenew boscan that is causing me all kinds of problems,
Speaker 3: which is like tightening up my shoulders, which then screws
Speaker 3: my whole backup. And now my hips are hurting. And
Speaker 3: so now when I run, my knees start aching and
Speaker 3: it's just and I know it's not my knees. I
Speaker 3: know it's like a pinchnerve somewhere. And so I was
Speaker 3: sitting here this morning and turned a certain way and
Speaker 3: all of a sudden I couldn't move. It hurts so bad,
Speaker 3: so I got up. You're like Whitney's mom from southern charm.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need me to bring me my.
Speaker 3: Way to bed and eddie their gun to my back
Speaker 3: and my neck. And he's like, you're screwed up. I go,
Speaker 3: I know I'm screwed up. I don't need you to
Speaker 3: tell me that.
Speaker 2: Why do why do people need to point out the obvious? Well,
Speaker 2: they're old and screwed up.
Speaker 3: And then this is me. He's like, well, you want
Speaker 3: to go see dust in the chiropractor. I go, no,
Speaker 3: Well do you want to a massage? No, I don't
Speaker 3: have any time. I'll go to the chiropractor. He goes,
Speaker 3: it take twenty minutes to get there, thirty minutes on
Speaker 3: the table, and twenty minutes to get home. You can
Speaker 3: just have a massage at home for that. And I'm like,
Speaker 3: I hate massages. I hate I love them. I got
Speaker 3: my yesterday and I can't relax, I said. I think
Speaker 3: about all the things I need to do, Like why
Speaker 3: don't you do what I do?
Speaker 2: So when I'm face down, I watch our shows, the
Speaker 2: shows we need to watch for work. So then I
Speaker 2: feel like I take note, so I forget everything. So
Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing I can do is maybe
Speaker 2: take a gummy.
Speaker 3: That would be a good idea.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So so Thanksgiving came and went. I hosted. We
Speaker 3: had Eddie's family with They usually go to Pasadena. This
Speaker 3: year they came to us. Eddie's grandmother is ninety nine
Speaker 3: years old.
Speaker 2: Wow, my dad's dad is ninety three years old. Him up,
Speaker 2: so it would be like he'd close talking no hello.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's much more than his grandmother. It's his
Speaker 3: mot she raised him. Yeah, so you know, it's it's
Speaker 3: very hard, and I think he's coming to the realization that,
Speaker 3: you know, it could be her last. Who knows she has.
Speaker 3: I think she has a brother that's a hunter and
Speaker 3: two so we never know. But she's been slowly kind
Speaker 3: of declining and it's really it's really hard, but she's
Speaker 3: got a lot of energy. From ninety nine years old.
Speaker 3: We I played the reindeer game with her, put the antlers.
Speaker 3: I saw that that was so and she was making
Speaker 3: more than anybody else there. So yeah, so I cooked.
Speaker 3: I didn't screw anything up, except for I made homemade
Speaker 3: cranberry sauce and I forgot to bring it out. That's
Speaker 3: my only thing. Was it the chunky kind? Yeah, well,
Speaker 3: you boil the cranberries with the orange juice and sugar.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: I like the I like the kind of like the
Speaker 3: jelly kine.
Speaker 2: I like the ridges. If I can't see ridges, I'm
Speaker 2: not that's.
Speaker 3: Right out of a king. I don't know why. I
Speaker 3: am from Indiana, which I like that type. I buy
Speaker 3: that type as well because Sophia likes that. But both
Speaker 3: my boys came over and Ava and my mom drove
Speaker 3: in and stayed with us for a few days. And yeah,
Speaker 3: and then we went to the next day. Sophia is like,
Speaker 3: do you want to go to Black Friday at Target?
Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh no, yes, okay.
Speaker 2: There's a thing called the Amazon that you just go on.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: But the thing is is, like I really thought I
Speaker 3: haven't been a Black Friday in years. So I went.
Speaker 3: It was no big deal. Nobody was there, everybody's mine,
Speaker 3: nobody was there. I mean it was there was people there,
Speaker 3: but it wasn't crowded like I thought. Things were like
Speaker 3: forty to fifty percent off. I got tons of stuff
Speaker 3: for Ava. But have you heard about the pooping at
Speaker 3: Target situation?
Speaker 2: From you just pooping it?
Speaker 3: It's called pooping pooping at Target? No, the urge to
Speaker 3: poop while shopping at Target, at or any other retail
Speaker 3: stores is a thing.
Speaker 2: Why I thought it was.
Speaker 3: I thought it was just me. Yes, that's part of it.
Speaker 3: They say that relaxation, excitement, smells, sounds, and neurological reasons.
Speaker 3: Your brain or stomach can send neurological signals to you
Speaker 3: when you walk into Target or any other retail sto
Speaker 3: that you actually have to go pooh.
Speaker 2: Well it's a target for some people. That's the car.
Speaker 2: For me, whenever I know I can't pooh is when
Speaker 2: I need.
Speaker 3: To oh this anxiety. I mean when you drive. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: so so yeah, so everything was good, but now this
Speaker 3: was your very first Thanksgiving with just you and the kids.
Speaker 3: Try yeah, how that.
Speaker 2: First time? I guess in fifteen years that we haven't
Speaker 2: been together for Thanksgiving, I would say, I mean the
Speaker 2: lucky thing is that my family, you know, my dad
Speaker 2: and my brothers, and my sister and all her kids,
Speaker 2: Like everybody's so crazy that it's just such chaos that
Speaker 2: like you're just going, going, going, going.
Speaker 3: Well, especially with traveling and being around your family is yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean it's like you're sitting at home cooking for
Speaker 3: just the kids or something.
Speaker 2: And everything was everything was really, you know, we were
Speaker 2: there I think three days or something like that. I
Speaker 2: would say, like our hardest parts is like during the
Speaker 2: night time. You know, it's like bedtime because like you know,
Speaker 2: especially we're on a different time zone and it's normally
Speaker 2: like a divide and conquer type thing, like you put
Speaker 2: Dub to bed, I'll help Pase. But like every night
Speaker 2: that I was home, it was like now, like we're
Speaker 2: all going to bed, you know, like everybody's kind of
Speaker 2: you know, we're all trying to figure out.
Speaker 3: Oh, there's going to be a lot of first and
Speaker 3: I think that the holidays were super hard. I stuck
Speaker 3: it out until after Christmas and then left, like I
Speaker 3: think it was January second or third or something like that,
Speaker 3: and I moved into my own apartment. The first holiday
Speaker 3: for me, I think was Easter, big holiday, and I
Speaker 3: remember sitting around I mean, I don't remember a lot,
Speaker 3: but I remember this. I remember sitting around the island
Speaker 3: in my little tiny apartment and the kids saying to me.
Speaker 3: One of the kids said, do you think Dad has
Speaker 3: Easter dinner tonight? And I literally walked to the bathroom
Speaker 3: and I was crying, and I seriously almost threw up Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's just there's so many things that just punch you
Speaker 3: in the gut where you just don't think are going
Speaker 3: to happen, and they do. So just prepare yourself for
Speaker 3: that because it's hard.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 3: The first year of any change is obviously hard, and
Speaker 3: this is going to be really difficult for you.
Speaker 2: But you're going to get through it, I promise, And
Speaker 2: I think as long as I'm trying, you know, to
Speaker 2: show the kids as much normalcy as I can when
Speaker 2: when I am home and when things are happening, and
Speaker 2: you know, at the end of the day, we have
Speaker 2: really good kids. Yeah, we have really good kids, and
Speaker 2: they're really love thing and you know, who knows what's
Speaker 2: going to happen, but I h I was glad to
Speaker 2: be with family. I'm glad because you know, with family
Speaker 2: you can also say like I don't want to fucking
Speaker 2: talk about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Like there was a point where like my dad
Speaker 2: myself a housewife show. Yeah, like where my dad and
Speaker 2: sister were like on me about it, and I was like, listen,
Speaker 2: I don't want to find I didn't come here to
Speaker 2: feel like shit, Like I came here because I love
Speaker 2: you guys, and I want to have fun with the
Speaker 2: kids and you, and like.
Speaker 3: Are they supportive of you?
Speaker 2: I mean, of course, but everybody, you know, and I
Speaker 2: ques included, like everybody has questions about everything. So I
Speaker 2: think there was just a moment where I had to say, like,
Speaker 2: pump the brakes back off, like I am here because
Speaker 2: I love you and my kids love you, and let's
Speaker 2: spend cousin time and like Dad, yeah, for sure, tackle
Speaker 2: me during family foot and like, seriously, I'm still limping
Speaker 2: around and I have a bruise the size of your
Speaker 2: head on my shin because my dad can't help but
Speaker 2: take things too far. But everything's okay. We're back home.
Speaker 2: We decorated for Christmas last night, so.
Speaker 3: We got the Christmas tree out, and you had sent
Speaker 3: me a message that we have the exact same Christmas
Speaker 3: tree King the Christmas I think is the name of
Speaker 3: the tree we all got, like I don't know a
Speaker 3: few years back they were sending it to all the housewives.
Speaker 2: Well now I'm pissed because I finally, like, you know,
Speaker 2: I had the two guys that I work with come
Speaker 2: over and pull down the tree from above the garage, like,
Speaker 2: which is a whole fucking to do, And then today
Speaker 2: I'm in the gym and I'm working out with like
Speaker 2: slates on her new like she does this every year
Speaker 2: where she like goes on her mile run kick and
Speaker 2: Cruise likes to box. And so we're working out this
Speaker 2: morning and Cruise opens a little closet in the gym
Speaker 2: and he's like, Mom, I found the other tree. So
Speaker 2: now he's like, can we put up the other tree tonight?
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh my god.
Speaker 3: Well, I had every intention of getting a real tree
Speaker 3: because we haven't had one in a long time. And
Speaker 3: Sophia is like, let's get a real one, okay, okay.
Speaker 3: And then when it came to it, I said to
Speaker 3: her the other day, I go, you realize we have
Speaker 3: to wrap it with lights? This one from Kings and Christmas.
Speaker 2: All you do.
Speaker 3: You don't even have to plug it in. You just
Speaker 3: put the three would have three or four.
Speaker 2: But I swear I have allergies today from all those
Speaker 2: cotton pieces falling off the tree on dust. Who knows
Speaker 2: how many years ago, considering I got the wrong tree
Speaker 2: out and put it up.
Speaker 4: It's a tree, It's a tree, all right.
Speaker 2: Let's get into some housewife headlines here. This first one
Speaker 2: is from US Weekly, Heather Gay alleges gin Shot husband
Speaker 2: Sharif tried to kiss Monica Garcia in a new book.
Speaker 2: Heather was given the title good Time Girl by co
Speaker 2: star Lisa Barlow during the first season of Real house
Speaker 2: Lives of Salt Lake City, and now the bravostar is
Speaker 2: making the Monica her own and her fourthcoming book, titled
Speaker 2: Good Time Girls, set to be released on Tuesday, December third,
Speaker 2: Heather talks about growing up Morbon and her past marriage.
Speaker 2: The reality star also offered a behind the scenes look
Speaker 2: at the Real Housewives of Salt Lake Sea to Eat
Speaker 2: season four finale and what it was like to unmask
Speaker 2: Monica Garcia as Reality Vonte. In an exclusive excerpt from
Speaker 2: Heather's final chapter titled Receipts Proof Timeline Screamshots, she breaks
Speaker 2: down the apparent timeline of how Monica went from being
Speaker 2: in gen Shaw's In a Circle to Reality Vontice. At
Speaker 2: one point, Heather even alleges that Jen's husband Sharif tried
Speaker 2: to kiss Monica god Hea.
Speaker 3: They're using Monica to try to sell books not I
Speaker 3: mean really, I know. This next article kind of breaks
Speaker 3: my heart and I don't know that I'm going to
Speaker 3: read all of it because I feel like it's kind
Speaker 3: of kids are off liminents, Mary Cosby's home facing pre foreclosure,
Speaker 3: plus Star's son Robert Junior, completes inpatient rehab program according
Speaker 3: to reality Blurb. According to the online report, which came
Speaker 3: just as mary Son confirmed his completion of an inpatient
Speaker 3: rehab program, Mary and her husband may have fallen behind
Speaker 3: on their mortgage payments, and according to this article, Mary
Speaker 3: Cosby house is in pre foreclosure. Mortgage is less than
Speaker 3: one hundred thousand dollars. Now after reading the article, they
Speaker 3: have two loans on the house three point five and
Speaker 3: one hundred thousand, and it's one hundred thousand dollars one
Speaker 3: they're behind in. Who knows what's going on. I hate
Speaker 3: to even talk about this kind of stuff. But then
Speaker 3: Salt Lake City News The US Sun revealed that Mary's
Speaker 3: Sun attended a November two, twenty first hearing. I did
Speaker 3: not know that he got a DUI and in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty two, and he's going to hearing for that. But
Speaker 3: we all know, we don't need to get into the
Speaker 3: nitty gritty of it.
Speaker 2: We all know Buttorney confirmed he completed a treatment in
Speaker 2: California as part of his twenty twenty two It's d
Speaker 2: Ua case.
Speaker 3: But it's all really sad. I think we're going to
Speaker 3: get into it soon. About the scene that we saw
Speaker 3: with Mary and her son. Some are saying that it's
Speaker 3: a little too much, too exposed to some people are
Speaker 3: commending them for being so open with this situation and
Speaker 3: helped so many other people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought this entire scene was and I know
Speaker 2: we'll get into it when we recap the Salt Lake
Speaker 2: Cities later this week. But I think it's Yes, it's
Speaker 2: so hard to imagine, you know, showing that on television,
Speaker 2: but I can't even imagine the amount of parents that
Speaker 2: can directly relate to what was happening there.
Speaker 3: It's like so hard as a parent because kids go
Speaker 3: through so many different stages and it's like they have
Speaker 3: that stage where they don't want to talk to you
Speaker 3: and they just want to sit in the room and
Speaker 3: they're like, you bog me, leave me alone, you know.
Speaker 3: So it's so hard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think you know it's and then you
Speaker 2: add a relationship into it and there's a person, there's
Speaker 2: a lot we'll get into it. Yeah, but this next
Speaker 2: one does make me laugh. Hugh Grant says he doesn't
Speaker 2: recall ever making out with Louanne de Lecepts, but jokes
Speaker 2: her memory might be better than mine. Hugh Grant recalls
Speaker 2: an alleged steamy moment between himself and Louanne Delecepts a
Speaker 2: little differently than she does. He responded to Luanne's claim
Speaker 2: that they once heavily made out and a post on
Speaker 2: AXI wrote, steady on, I do remember meeting a charming
Speaker 2: Real Housewives of New York and a restaurant, but I
Speaker 2: I like to stress that it was about fifteen years ago.
Speaker 2: I don't recall shots or kissing, but her memory might
Speaker 2: be better than mine.
Speaker 3: Do you think she's stretching the truth a little bit?
Speaker 2: Or he just I think the fact that Hugh Grant
Speaker 2: is writing you back on X says all it needs.
Speaker 3: It says yeah, so he definitely well. Bravo announces season
Speaker 3: twelve The vander Pump Rules will start a completely new
Speaker 3: cast so as Weekly wrote an article, Season twelve will
Speaker 3: feature Lisa vander Pump in a new group of close
Speaker 3: knit servers or survivors more like it. This new season
Speaker 3: begins production next year and at premiere date will premiere
Speaker 3: date and cast will be announced later. What are your
Speaker 3: thoughts on this? There's been I mean, it's been flooded
Speaker 3: my entire Instagram feed about this. Recasting a show is dangerous.
Speaker 2: I mean, I gotta be honest. I don't want it.
Speaker 3: I know, I'm not sure I want it either.
Speaker 2: I think I don't want it, but.
Speaker 3: I feel like they've outgrown vander pumper Wolves, right, But then.
Speaker 2: Call it something like pivot it or if they're I
Speaker 2: guess if they're all going to the Valley or whatever
Speaker 2: it may be.
Speaker 3: Hear me out. I think there's going to be some
Speaker 3: and I don't know. I'm just making this up. It's
Speaker 3: just whatever. I feel like a couple of beer canna
Speaker 3: get spin offs. There's gonna be a sandwich shop, Arianna, Katie,
Speaker 3: They're going to get a show. I feel like a
Speaker 3: few of them are going to move over to the
Speaker 3: Valley and they're going to get a young group of thirsty,
Speaker 3: broke servers in Hollywood to be restaurants.
Speaker 2: Does Lisa vander Pump still have open I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's a good question. I guess I wasn't.
Speaker 2: I wasn't. That wasn't shade.
Speaker 3: I just yeah, no, no, she did close some of
Speaker 3: them down and then she did open some up, some
Speaker 3: new ones up, but they're not in CALIFORNI yeah, And
Speaker 3: I thought there was going to Vegas, the Vegas one.
Speaker 3: That would well, that would be cool to have the
Speaker 3: show out of Vegas. But who knows, who knows what
Speaker 3: they're going to do. I'm sure if Alex Baskin is
Speaker 3: producing it, it's going to be something new and well.
Speaker 2: On the heels of this, The Valley season two cast
Speaker 2: to feature Vander Pump Rules alum Sheena sa, Tom Schwartz,
Speaker 2: and Laala Kent following reboot. This is from Deadline. Vander
Speaker 2: Pump Rules is moving into a new direction for season
Speaker 2: twelve and completely rebooting with a new cast. Although the
Speaker 2: og stars of the Bravo reality series will continue with
Speaker 2: the show Deadline here some of them will be featured
Speaker 2: in The Valley season two. Filming for the spinoff second
Speaker 2: season has been completed and Vander Pump Rules alum Lalla Kent,
Speaker 2: Sena se Brock, Davies, and Tom Schwartz filmed for the
Speaker 2: new season. The extent of their appearances remains to be seen.
Speaker 2: We also saw that The Valleys Kristin Dody, Dody, she's pragger, She's.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she talked about it last season on The Valley
Speaker 3: that she wanted to and now she is pregnant. Now
Speaker 3: with the other cast, the other batfunt Rules filming La
Speaker 3: La Sheena Rock all that Tom Schwartz, I noticed I
Speaker 3: did not see Sandoval's name anywhere in there. I'm wondering
Speaker 3: if he is just going to be put on pause
Speaker 3: and the rest of the cast is going to be
Speaker 3: you know, sprinkled hair and sprinkled there. Now, I don't
Speaker 3: think that they were actually cast members on The Valley,
Speaker 3: just kind of popped in here and there, maybe just
Speaker 3: to kind of test them out to see if season
Speaker 3: three will include them. I know that.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think Tom Sandoval will be on Traders.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's a that's a one off. That's not like, well,
Speaker 3: he's still working.
Speaker 2: Before that, he did Special Forces.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's still gonna work, I no doubt. But there's
Speaker 3: you know, there's a lot of one offers that you
Speaker 3: do it and it's over with and it's gone, And
Speaker 3: I'm just wondering if he's going to be placed on
Speaker 3: a per minute cast. Would that be The Valley I
Speaker 3: don't think he's getting his own spin off.
Speaker 2: I would guess he's not getting his own spin off,
Speaker 2: especially now that Schwartz and Sandy's has gotten closed down.
Speaker 3: That's right, they closed down. That happened all in one day, right,
Speaker 3: They announced they closed down and that the cast was
Speaker 3: going to be totally revamped. Yeah, well, let's wish them luck.
Speaker 2: See what happens. Let's see what happens. Meanwhile, Arianna was
Speaker 2: performing at the.
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving David Yeah, Macy's pried. Now I heard mixed reviews.
Speaker 3: Now I've heard like she killed it. I didn't watch,
Speaker 3: but then I you know, there's always haters on social
Speaker 3: media that's so annoying, So I don't know what the
Speaker 3: actual truth was. Oh, they were saying her lip singing
Speaker 3: was off, Well who cares? She still s Well.
Speaker 2: There was also I'm not going to say who, but
Speaker 2: there was an another like professional singer that has been
Speaker 2: singing their entire life that my dad hates loud volume
Speaker 2: at all. So like we always had the parade in
Speaker 2: the background, but like, for a second, I turned it
Speaker 2: on because I saw a certain performer that I love
Speaker 2: and I love the song and it didn't sound good either.
Speaker 3: So I don't know if it was just you know,
Speaker 3: it's yeah, but I think that I heard you can't
Speaker 3: sing on floats, and the lip syncing on the parade
Speaker 3: is not uncommon. I think it's its own talent to
Speaker 3: be I'm sorry, but I think out your lip syncing
Speaker 3: to the actual track.
Speaker 2: I think Ariana Grande, Christina Aguilera, and Whitney Houston could
Speaker 2: have sang wherever.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sure like you could have. There's not too
Speaker 3: many people in the world of voices like that. Well, which,
Speaker 3: speaking of voices, before we get to Potomac, what Sophia
Speaker 3: has decided to go to music school in La. Do
Speaker 3: she want to be my part time babysitter when she's Maybe?
Speaker 3: The problem is, like I just started thinking about. We
Speaker 3: talked about it. She'd have to get an apartment out there,
Speaker 3: And yesterday I was sitting here thinking, I started crying.
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh my god, how can I this can't
Speaker 3: happen for my sake, I couldn't imagine my life without
Speaker 3: her with me every single day. No, you have to her,
Speaker 3: I know that, but we do so much together. And
Speaker 3: I told her, I said, well, let's get our apartment
Speaker 3: in La. Maybe get a two bedroom because maybe I'll
Speaker 3: start coming out once a week, so I mean, you can
Speaker 3: do podcasts together. But it's in Hollywood. And oddly enough,
Speaker 3: I was looking through music schools and clicked on their instagrams,
Speaker 3: and there's one in Pasadena that I guess. I talked
Speaker 3: about it last year on her podcast, and they reached
Speaker 3: out to me and asked if we'd like to do
Speaker 3: a private tour of their.
Speaker 2: School, So go do it.
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna do that. That one's actually in Pasadena.
Speaker 3: But she really wants to be in the heart of Hollywood.
Speaker 3: Well she should.
Speaker 2: I think it's it's going to give her a different
Speaker 2: feel and a different vibe. And I think it as
Speaker 2: much as you'll be sad, I think it will be
Speaker 2: good for her.
Speaker 3: There is breaking news. Well, US Weekly just popped up
Speaker 3: on my screen from in Touch, Karen Huger shut down
Speaker 3: an effort to suppress bodycam footage for her DUI arrest.
Speaker 3: So what does judge shut down Real House with spotomac
Speaker 3: Karen's plea to not allow statements she made to police
Speaker 3: and bodycam footage of her DUI arrest from being used
Speaker 3: as evidence. In Touch can exclusively report according to the
Speaker 3: court document attained by in touch A Marilynd Judge denied
Speaker 3: Karen's motions seeking to suppress certain evidence. Back in March,
Speaker 3: Karen sixty one was involved in a car accident while
Speaker 3: driving her twenty seventeen Maserati. She was the only person
Speaker 3: in the car when it struck the median and street
Speaker 3: sign at an intersection before slamming into a tree. Police arrested.
Speaker 3: I think we all know what happened, so they're just
Speaker 3: saying no, you can't. We're not dismissing these.
Speaker 2: I thought she already went to court, right, but then
Speaker 2: nothing happened. We are starting off with the Real House
Speaker 2: of Epotomacs Season nine, Episode nine recap. The women are
Speaker 2: thrown off by MIA's photoshoot with Ink and Gordon that
Speaker 2: she posts on Instagram. Mia feels criticized by the other
Speaker 2: women for her parenting choices. Do you think the women
Speaker 2: have valid criticisms with how Mia is handling the situation?
Speaker 3: Well, the two things. First of all, the photo shoot,
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's a photo shoot. They were
Speaker 3: just taking pictures like it wasn't like some professional photo
Speaker 3: shoot she had. It happened the same day that she
Speaker 3: told the girls that, you know, if I'm if I'm correct,
Speaker 3: it happened the same day that she told the girls
Speaker 3: that Inc said he's going to step back, that Gordon
Speaker 3: Inc Got in this huge fight, and now on Instagram
Speaker 3: that night she's taking pictures of them hanging out together,
Speaker 3: playing in a pool.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So, as a Cat's member, you think, is this bullshit?
Speaker 3: Is she just lying for the cameras? Is this all
Speaker 3: made up for a storyline? Like I get that, I
Speaker 3: would think the same thing, and I would have brought
Speaker 3: it up too. How she handles her situation with the
Speaker 3: two guys and the kids, that's on her whatever.
Speaker 2: But all the other stuff, it's it's not necessarily that
Speaker 2: I have an issue with Mia. It's more like.
Speaker 3: I have an issue with me and she's buying me.
Speaker 2: I mean, Anya, But I think that it's just coming
Speaker 2: off so unnecessary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just she's making a mockery of it. I
Speaker 3: think that's how I feel. I mean, I wish the
Speaker 3: rest of the girls would back up Giselle more because
Speaker 3: she is saying what everybody is thinking.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And by the way, I have a question, huh. You
Speaker 3: know when they made a big deal about Mia saying
Speaker 3: the fathers of my children. I thought, oh wow, how
Speaker 3: that Mia had an older son from a previous relationship
Speaker 3: or marriage? Hold on, no, what? And does yes? And
Speaker 3: does Mia? Does this son film? Hold on? Come again?
Speaker 2: How did I miss this?
Speaker 3: So Mia said the fathers of my children, and the
Speaker 3: girls went, I thought your kids were both Gordon's. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and she goes, I have another son from a previous
Speaker 3: I blocked that out. Yeah, somebody help. I'm confused on
Speaker 3: this because I don't I don't know how old a
Speaker 3: child is, and I don't know if he's filming. Maybe
Speaker 3: he's not allowed to film.
Speaker 2: That's why we've never seen him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but this was like news to me.
Speaker 2: Well, I didn't really have an idea. What receiving a
Speaker 2: citation at the birthday from a Governor Wes Moore in
Speaker 2: recognition of her lifetime work and achievements, presented by a
Speaker 2: senior White House correspondent, It was so funny.
Speaker 3: When was it gizal or somebody goes a citation is
Speaker 3: a negative thing.
Speaker 2: Well, everybody was trying to clown Wendy for using the
Speaker 2: word citation, but she actually was right.
Speaker 3: Yes, I looked it up.
Speaker 2: Got did I? The definition mentioned such as a formal
Speaker 2: statement of the achievements of a person receiving an academic honor.
Speaker 3: The reason we didn't know what that meant is we
Speaker 3: never received academic or I've never once gotten one. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so I was. I was right there with all of them,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, a citation is a bad thing, isn't it.
Speaker 3: Nobody wants to say to I think of a ticket? Yeah, No,
Speaker 3: I thought like, this is my citation.
Speaker 2: Then we get to Stacy being optimistic about her upcoming
Speaker 2: mediation because she and her ex have agreed they don't
Speaker 2: want to fight over finances. Karen, Gizelle, and Ashley sit
Speaker 2: Stacy down to warn her that her ex might still
Speaker 2: choose to fight.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Stacey says her divorce is different from the other women
Speaker 2: because it's amicable.
Speaker 3: Do you think it's possible to get divorced amicably or
Speaker 3: does it usually get ugly? Experienced friends, and I'm talking
Speaker 3: about your situation, I'm talking about I mean.
Speaker 2: I am. I was divorced from my first husband and
Speaker 2: it was amicable. We had but we had no kids,
Speaker 2: we had no money. We had done that thing and
Speaker 2: it was just like, Okay, our name is going to
Speaker 2: do our divorce like it was fine.
Speaker 3: I think it could happen.
Speaker 2: I think it could happen.
Speaker 3: But I do think there's.
Speaker 2: I think there is a difference when it comes to finances,
Speaker 2: but I think even more so if one of the
Speaker 2: parties is still in love with the other.
Speaker 3: Well, it's always that. I feel like it's always that's
Speaker 3: the same situation, Like one person is gone and the
Speaker 3: other person's still in love. So then that love turns
Speaker 3: to anger and it goes through all them, you know, stay.
Speaker 2: The stages of pace.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so it's hard's that's a hard one. It's
Speaker 3: a hard one. But also I'm always a hard one.
Speaker 3: Ashley drive into mediation talking about her custody driving forty
Speaker 3: miles per hour all the way to the right side
Speaker 3: of the freeway and then yelling at people because they're
Speaker 3: honking at her because she's driving so slow. I just
Speaker 3: was screaming speed app But I'm one of those drivers,
Speaker 3: and I drive not out of my way. Stop it
Speaker 3: would probably.
Speaker 2: That would probably be me. But then we get to
Speaker 2: Kiana telling Gregory that her lawyer says the personal injury
Speaker 2: lawsuit against Deborah is progressing well, but this is did
Speaker 2: the lawsuit have something to do with Kiana getting a
Speaker 2: flute because I mean, I like her, but besides her
Speaker 2: fight with Mia, she isn't giving me full housewife at
Speaker 2: the moment, so I'm I'm not at all. I mean
Speaker 2: they said that according to reports is she was promoted
Speaker 2: to full time housewife after the season was over. But
Speaker 2: I'm wondering what's changed because as of this moment, I mean,
Speaker 2: compared to Jazzy, I guess we're getting more of a story, yeah.
Speaker 3: A little bit more so. I think Kiana seems really
Speaker 3: young and fun. We just need to see a little
Speaker 3: bit more. I don't see the connection between her and Gregory.
Speaker 3: He comes across to me like a little stuffy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, who would you rather date Gregory or Stacy's guy?
Speaker 3: Gregory? For sure? Well I want to did you see
Speaker 3: uh Donna Daily does a Donna Did you see her clip?
Speaker 3: She just found out who TJ is. She used to
Speaker 3: work out with him in the same fitness class where
Speaker 3: I wonder somewhere in Hollywood. I think it was.
Speaker 2: So he's from La.
Speaker 3: Yes, So when she's like, her friend said, you know
Speaker 3: who that is? That is TJ from you know, Potomac,
Speaker 3: And she's like, no, no, I guess this was like
Speaker 3: a decade ago that they were he.
Speaker 2: He's also a professional actor, which I didn't realize.
Speaker 3: Wait stop, yes, go on to his IMDb well to
Speaker 3: the nineteen hundred. Okay, I'm going to tell you right now.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, wait. They did talk about it a little bit,
Speaker 3: didn't He was on a A They mentioned it maybe
Speaker 3: the first episode that he was on something. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 3: if I find out that this is just a rental
Speaker 3: boyfriend for the show, I'm gonna be so angry.
Speaker 2: Rent a better one, Well, rent a better one.
Speaker 3: Rent went the place with the team. I rent one
Speaker 3: that rent one that likes you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or can pretend or can act.
Speaker 3: But we might all be wrong. We might all be wrong.
Speaker 2: Well, I wonder if he's wash Shamar Moore on n
Speaker 2: cis because TJ was, and I'm friendly with Shamar. I
Speaker 2: want to kind of ask him the details on TJ.
Speaker 2: And what does TJ do when he's not acting?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Okay. So after Stacy's first mediation, Stacy says there were
Speaker 2: many things she didn't know about because she never handled
Speaker 2: the finances in her relationship. She is grateful to ladies
Speaker 2: encourage her to speak up and ask questions. Do you
Speaker 2: think spouses should have equal knowledge about the finances or
Speaker 2: do you not see a problem and not knowing where
Speaker 2: the money is.
Speaker 3: I I go both ways on that. I feel like
Speaker 3: you should have some knowledge if you have a joint
Speaker 3: bank account, of what's going on. I feel like there's
Speaker 3: a lot of women that have their husbands. You know,
Speaker 3: their husbands pay the bills, and they really don't know
Speaker 3: where the money's going. Eddie pays the bills. I don't
Speaker 3: pay the bills. But the thing is is, I have
Speaker 3: a print out of every bank account, every password. It's
Speaker 3: up to me to go in and look because I
Speaker 3: don't want to pay the bills. I just don't stresses
Speaker 3: me out. I don't like it whatever. So I think
Speaker 3: that you have to have some idea of what's going on,
Speaker 3: especially if both of you are working.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we have completely separate bank accoun but
Speaker 2: we so I have no idea.
Speaker 3: But would you advise that, No, I just think to
Speaker 3: each his own.
Speaker 2: Like, I think both myself and Edwin have an interesting
Speaker 2: relationship with money because of the way that we were
Speaker 2: brought up and you know, my mom and his family
Speaker 2: and all those things. Like, so I think We've always
Speaker 2: like had like a tight grip on making sure that
Speaker 2: we were very in control of our financials. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: I think, you know, to each his own, like some
Speaker 2: people are complete. They have a way better relationship with
Speaker 2: money than I do. Like for me, it's like we
Speaker 2: do this, yes'm yes, I'm like, it's always that next thing.
Speaker 3: It's never good enough. But I do have a question.
Speaker 2: Who taught Azelle to say charcouterie like shar shoot or replate.
Speaker 3: I hate that word, I really do. If I cannot
Speaker 3: ever say that word, or if I see it on
Speaker 3: a menu, I'm like, can we have the cheese? Plain?
Speaker 3: It was like, I don't like it's hard? No, it
Speaker 3: was cha CHARKI well, it's not an easy word to say.
Speaker 3: So well, by the way, I just pulled up Thomas
Speaker 3: Anthony Jones his I am dB and I am stunned
Speaker 3: right now because he was in This is Us and
Speaker 3: that's your favorite show. That's my favorite show ever? And
Speaker 3: why do I not remember him? Uh? He was in
Speaker 3: quite a bit of things like good did he have
Speaker 3: a big part and This Is Us? Or was it
Speaker 3: like I don't oh, it was one episode, one episode
Speaker 3: that tells you criminal Minds one episode, How to Get
Speaker 3: Away with Murder one episode, Gray's Anatomy one episode, Front
Speaker 3: Seat Chronicles one episode, When Was the Last Survive? Two episodes.
Speaker 3: Last time he's had an acting job was on the
Speaker 3: Real Housewives of Potomac Elaine's Cooking for the Soul. Oh,
Speaker 3: that's a podcast. He did a podcast in twenty twenty four. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he did a lot of one offs early two thousands,
Speaker 3: Forbidden Fruit Pie, Days of Our Lives.
Speaker 2: Listen, I want it to be a chronic class.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So he's been a working actor.
Speaker 2: For quite some time and he's still acting now. Then
Speaker 2: Ashley revealed she didn't reach an agreement with Michael during mediation.
Speaker 2: He wanted a confidentiality clause preventing her from speaking about
Speaker 2: him on the show. Ashley now must either have their
Speaker 2: attorneys reach an agreement or file a public complaint. Karen
Speaker 2: points out that Ashley now has a bargaining chip for
Speaker 2: securing more alimony. I didn't even think of that until
Speaker 2: she said that. But Ashley was like, you know, I
Speaker 2: need our boys to sit on that countertop so I
Speaker 2: can make a page check. Michael, so you don't get
Speaker 2: to stop me talking about you.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing. It's confusing me as she doesn't talk
Speaker 3: negatively about Michael. No, but out of all the divorce
Speaker 3: people going through divorce, she's always been. Like I've said,
Speaker 3: I feel like she still loves him. She's very respectful,
Speaker 3: way more respectful than mess wise would be.
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's for you know, for financial reasons.
Speaker 2: She don't want to fuck this up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's always allegedly if you are on
Speaker 3: national TV, not to talk bad about the father of
Speaker 3: your children.
Speaker 2: Well, then we've got Mia and Jacqueline go shopping. Mia
Speaker 2: shares that she's tired of Jizelle's criticism of her parenting
Speaker 2: and lifestyle choices. She wants to have a conversation, which
Speaker 2: Iselle about it. And then I don't know, I feel
Speaker 2: like Mia is making bad choices all around the season.
Speaker 2: The ink paternity story coming for Jizelle's kids. That outfit
Speaker 2: she picked out for Jacqueline, I.
Speaker 3: Know, the thing is like Mia shed and Jacqueline by
Speaker 3: saying she grew up on a farm, didn't wear shoes
Speaker 3: and has no fashion sense, like really, and then you know,
Speaker 3: next thing, you know, she's like, oh, cute outfit that
Speaker 3: is that pajamas? Like she's so fucking shady.
Speaker 2: No, but then also don't lie to her and tell
Speaker 2: her that that purple top tied with the silver skirt
Speaker 2: is a good look.
Speaker 3: Good look are comparing Jacqueline style to Giselle's only adding
Speaker 3: field of the fire, and of course the producers couldn't
Speaker 3: resist by showing montage of Gazelle's fashions. Now I think
Speaker 3: that Chazelle has upped her fashion game.
Speaker 2: I really said, some of us are fashionable, some of
Speaker 2: us aren't. I don't think there's like even a reason.
Speaker 3: But I know, but Mia comparing Karen to Kerrilla Deville,
Speaker 3: I mean, she really has nothing nice to say unless
Speaker 3: it's about herself.
Speaker 2: Well, I think she's definitely concerned on getting those those bites,
Speaker 2: those little sound bites. But then Karen tells her daughter
Speaker 2: that some of the other women have been judgmental and
Speaker 2: messy about her duy. Her daughter tells her that anyone
Speaker 2: who isn't primarily concerned about her health isn't a true friend.
Speaker 2: This is a tough conversation because we also know that like,
Speaker 2: this should be a learning moment for your daughter.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when Karen refers to her DUI as an accident,
Speaker 3: is very frustrating. It feels like she's avoiding accountability and
Speaker 3: then saying it in front of her daughter, and then
Speaker 3: her daughter like, do you agree what she's saying? Do
Speaker 3: you think Raven is right when she says women should
Speaker 3: folk the women should focus solely on Karen's health and wellness.
Speaker 3: I think that they're it's kind of missing the point.
Speaker 2: Well, I think yes, as a as a child, you
Speaker 2: want to care about your parents' health and wellness. But
Speaker 2: I think you also.
Speaker 3: But if alcohol is contributing to the lack of health
Speaker 3: and wellness, is that what she's saying, like we should
Speaker 3: be concerned about her drinking. I don't know. Is there
Speaker 3: something else going on that we don't know about.
Speaker 2: I think there just adds another dynamic when it's on
Speaker 2: a television show being talked about. But I do think
Speaker 2: at some point, I really hope that we get a
Speaker 2: little bit of accountability from Karen. Yeah, even if it's
Speaker 2: I was really struggling and having a hard time and
Speaker 2: this was, you know, I really fucked up. Mia also
Speaker 2: retaliates by mentioning Jizelle not sharing her real truth on
Speaker 2: social media, like her daughter sneaking around with boys on
Speaker 2: their Dominican Republic trip as a critique of Giselle's parenting.
Speaker 2: I'm like, who didn't, who didn't, who went to shame break.
Speaker 3: Or criticized, just the fact that she's criticized and just
Speaker 3: kids like shut up.
Speaker 2: At Ashley's charity event, Mia confronts Giselle about how she
Speaker 2: shared sensitive things with her, but Gizelle was critical of
Speaker 2: MIA's social media post. Mia says Gizelle should have brought
Speaker 2: it up with her privately, not in front of the group.
Speaker 2: Then Mia also retaliates by mentioning Gizelle not sharing her
Speaker 2: real truth on social media, like her daughter sneaking around
Speaker 2: the boys on their Dominican Republic trip as a critique
Speaker 2: to Giselle's parenting, joining the fucking club who didn't like
Speaker 2: in college high school? Like please and why is this necessary?
Speaker 2: And Mia, you didn't with all that me.
Speaker 3: Is going on has going on right now? Like just no,
Speaker 3: you cannot insert yourself into this.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, I mean she has the goal to tell
Speaker 2: Gizelle to do better.
Speaker 3: And then I love Karen Karen saying the stress of
Speaker 3: juggling a pimp village has gone to me as head.
Speaker 2: And then in Gizelle's confessional. She says she's taking it
Speaker 2: all in and deciding how to react. Gizelle. We know
Speaker 2: you came in this season, Gizelle two point zero, but
Speaker 2: this Mia bringing up your daughter shit gives you permission
Speaker 2: to bring back O g Gizelle.
Speaker 3: So please, We're dy Jazelle. We are waiting for it.
Speaker 3: But you know me as doing the most. She really is,
Speaker 3: She's trying to do the most. Gizelle. Well, I think
Speaker 3: she's gonna think about it and then she is going
Speaker 3: to go after her. She is going to do it,
Speaker 3: and we need it at this point.
Speaker 2: Somebody needs to check mea because I feel like even
Speaker 2: the way that Mea is talking to Jacqueline Mia is
Speaker 2: with the other women, like she is almost acting like
Speaker 2: she's better.
Speaker 3: Than She's got an air about herself. Yeah, there's something
Speaker 3: that's like she's feeling herself and there's nothing worse than
Speaker 3: having a housewife that might have like maybe they have
Speaker 3: a good season and then they come back they're like, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm queen of this show, and you know what happens.
Speaker 3: They get smashed down so quick and the worst edit
Speaker 3: you've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean I am enjoying the show. I
Speaker 2: appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Okay, I have a question, Spider Man. Would you climb
Speaker 3: down that building like Ashley did? Yes, you would. I
Speaker 3: don't think I would. I really don't think I would.
Speaker 3: I would think the rope's gonna snap, I'm gonna falling
Speaker 3: to my death.
Speaker 2: Is not something.
Speaker 3: It's right up there with being on fire.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that I would have my kids come
Speaker 2: to watch me do it. If I'm being completely transparent
Speaker 2: on that.
Speaker 3: It's right up there with skydiving. Like they seemed a
Speaker 3: little bit stressed on that. You won't drive, but you'll
Speaker 3: climb down a building.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird. Yeah, but I have been driving quite
Speaker 2: a bit, not just good.
Speaker 3: Is it getting easier for you?
Speaker 2: No? No, but I'm forcing myself immersion therapy.
Speaker 3: Tam Well, I will have to say, I don't know
Speaker 3: if we talked about this, but we were talking one
Speaker 3: of your two days that you were driving and all
Speaker 3: of a sudden I heard this boom and You're like,
Speaker 3: oh shit, I just hit the curb. I'm like, that's
Speaker 3: the curb. And then all of a sudden electronic went
Speaker 3: off in your car.
Speaker 2: And don't worry at reset after a reset, and I
Speaker 2: don't have a flat tire. I'm good, but I did
Speaker 2: kind of hit a curb a little bit. I'm not
Speaker 2: a good driver, guys.
Speaker 3: Well, you'll get better.
Speaker 2: I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying all right, guys, thanks
Speaker 2: for tuning in, and we'll be back later this week.
Speaker 2: We've got lots of shows.
Speaker 3: To be I double up on some shows. Yes we
Speaker 3: are okay. Bye,
