And 52 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: so when you're sitting there, do you ever think because 53 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: I think, like I was broke when I started, so 54 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: I know why I did it, but I wonder why 55 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: the hell would anyone do this? Like you have these 56 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: things that go on from fraud and infidelity and stealing 57 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: and lying, and you know that it wouldn't be happening 58 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: if it wasn't exacerbated on television, like these conflicts, the 59 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: woman who went to jail, like Teresa who had that 60 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: situation going on with her with tax evasion, Like why 61 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: would people subject themselves to this fame and money? Right? 62 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: I guess so, and I guess with all why it 63 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: comes problems because I send and think about Kim zosiac 64 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: in Kroey little Krowey playing for the Atlanta Falcons, and 65 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 2: then that ends you know, but then you got to 66 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: keep that facade up against of like money and all 67 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. 68 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: But she had the facade going in with all the 69 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: bracelets and big Papa, and I think that part of her, 70 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: and you know, he wasn't like a player making fifteen 71 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: million dollars a year. I think they had to kind of. 72 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: I think what happens with a lot of Bravo people 73 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: is they think they're gonna get on the show, and 74 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: the show is going to make them so much money, 75 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna come up with Skinny Girl and sell 76 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: it for all this money and that will keep them going. 77 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: And I remember p K saying to me out to 78 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: dinner at Chipriani dorit did the show because of you. 79 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: I want for her what happened with you.

And I think it was 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: a wonderful time for me to have y'all because my 94 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: children were going off to college and leaving and it 95 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: and it threw me for a loaf.

I mean, we could go 103 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: into that, but that's not the same thing as the housewives. 104 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: But everybody was trying to you know, you could tell 105 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: a year after year trying to keep up and had 106 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: to get hair and makeup and do all that.

Louren Michaels was 126 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: not talking about me, but he once I had dinner 127 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: with him, and he said, you have He was talking 128 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: about one of the people on Saturday Air Live and 129 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: he said, you have to make an exit to make 130 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: an entrance. So I left, and I've always gone with 131 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 1: my gut. I left the Housewives after three seasons. Now, 132 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: if you think some of these girls have been off 133 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: for fourteen seasons a long time, three seas, this is 134 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: nothing like. So I left after three seasons of a 135 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: show when I was popping off and I was successful, 136 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: and I left because I didn't want to be there. 137 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: I felt that I had my reasons, I had my gut. 138 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: I felt that I was having a child and it 139 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: just wasn't where I wanted to be. And I now 140 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: realized the courage and that decision because I walked away 141 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: from something that went off on to be very successful, 142 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: and I walked away and I left for three seasons, 143 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: and whether it's luck or skill or whatever divine intervention, 144 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: the show went from I think it was three million 145 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: viewers when I left, and it went down to one 146 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: point six and they really wanted me back. And now 147 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: the other girls were getting just incremental raises, small, little nothing, 148 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: few percentage raises. And I left and Andy Cohen, I 149 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: wanted to pitch him another show. I was never going 150 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: back to Housewise. I thought it was disgusting and toxic 151 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,679 Speaker 1: and I was wanted to pitch another show. I forgot 152 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: what it was, and he said, well, I have something 153 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: to pitch you. And he came over and he pitched me, 154 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: and I said, I said, I'm going to give you 155 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: a number, and I'm not going to negotiate with you. 156 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a number and you're gonna come 157 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: back and you're gonna give it to me or you're not. 158 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: And that's how I'll go back. Now, at that point, 159 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: I had leverage. There were other times you don't have leverage, 160 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: like seasons later when they've got big shows and you know, 161 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: Jersey and Beverly Hills and in Atlanta. That's not when 162 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: you're going for your number. But New York was not 163 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: doing well with the Carol Kristen and Heather Era, and 164 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: I gave him the number. Gave him the number. And 165 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: also I had a boyfriend who wouldn't be on camera. 166 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: I had a child who wouldn't be on camera, and 167 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: a brutal divorce, and I named all my terms. I 168 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: made sure you do that when you're doing a contract, 169 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: you don't think of it later because they forget. It's 170 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: like this is the dating phase. Now. They wanted to 171 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: sleep with me. Once we start sleeping together, they'll be 172 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: sick of me. So when we were in the dating 173 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: phase and I asked for that massive number, it was 174 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: the highest house or if paid in history at the time, 175 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: and even now it would be a lot. These women 176 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: don't get paid that because I was incrementally raising each 177 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: year too. So I started off with such a big number. 178 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: When I came back and it was millions, it came 179 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: to be millions. And when I made that deal, I 180 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: carved everything out. I will not work when I have 181 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: my daughter.

It seemed such 324 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: a big deal to me that she was saying these 325 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: things because there's a camera there and it's on national television. 326 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: What's everyone going to think? But like a comedian, living 327 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: in the moment, being true to the moment is just 328 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: how I handled it, just how I responded. 329 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 2: M And I thought, I just thought, oh no, Ramona, no, no, no, Ramona, 330 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: And she looked unhinged, and I thought, but it all 331 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 2: came back to you went to a private school, you 332 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: had a car. It all, you know, I guess was 333 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: her being an insecure about where she came from and 334 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: that you have been this, you've become this huge success 335 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 2: that she wanted to be and then Mario left her. 336 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: It's funny because yeah, well she always wanted to talk 337 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: about a lot of people live in the past and 338 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: live in their story, so she always wanted to be like, 339 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: I made a million dollars by thirty, Okay, all right, 340 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: I invented the skinny Margarita. Great, well, now what who 341 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: cares young? You know, TikTokers don't fucking know that they're 342 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: ordering it everywhere they go. They don't know I invented it. 343 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: It's twenty twenty three. So she like because of being 344 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: in that fast pace. I think she wanted to be 345 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: the business person and it always bothered her, and she 346 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: wants like some sort of extra credit points or like 347 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: to be graded on a curve when a lot of 348 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: people are stuck in their story and talking about like 349 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: what they didn't get, and you got to be in 350 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: the present, like, you know, if you're talking about what 351 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: everyone else is doing and thinking about your story, you're 352 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: not at the top of your game moving forward quickly. 353 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: You're not playing chess, right, And she you know. And 354 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: that's the thing about the show too, though, that really 355 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: always you have to always know someone's always winning and 356 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: someone's always losing, and the person who can land the 357 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: takedown is winning. Because if she landed that scene, depending 358 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: upon how I reacted. And I don't think this is 359 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: just about reality television. This is about women in life. 360 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: If someone really gets to you and you take the 361 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: bait and you go lower than they do, then you're 362 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: the one who's gone the lowest, like no one remembers 363 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: the person who started the thing. It's how you handle 364 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: yourself in business in these situations, and I feel that 365 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 1: that's a massive, massive part of this chessboard. How you 366 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: handle it. How do you, as a comedian handled yourself 367 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: when you're fucking bombing? Are you true to the moment? 368 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: Are you gonna start saying, oh my god, I didn't 369 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: mean that. Hey, g I gus start like, you know, 370 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: how do you handle when you're bombing? 371 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? You go, Well, you have to know in your heart, 372 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 2: And I know in my mind after all these years, 373 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 2: I know this is funny. I know this kills every 374 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 2: night and I'm doing what I do and I'm not. 375 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: Going it's not funny that night, or your tone is off, 376 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: or your mood is off, or their mood is off, 377 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: or just like, it's what is going on? 378 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 2: It's what is going on? Yes, and I've had I'm 379 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 2: just something happened in the last year where it was 380 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: I was so excited about it. It was very famous people 381 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: in New York, and I thought I'm gonna kill I mean, 382 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: I was already on a hundred city tour a Big 383 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 2: Panty Tour. I'd sold the Netflix special and I'd been 384 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 2: doing this material every night, and I thought, oh my gosh, 385 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: there are middle aged women. They're gonna love me. They're 386 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,719 Speaker 2: going through the same thing I'm going through it. And 387 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: I did this show and there were there were probably 388 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: about twenty people there and half of them. I didn't 389 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 2: bomb completely, but it was not good and that and 390 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 2: I could just you know, I was getting some laughs, 391 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: but it wasn't like I thought it was gonna be anyway. 392 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: The people that were just like normal everyday people were laughing. 393 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: The very very wealthy did not, and I and I 394 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,959 Speaker 2: was crushed over it, but I and I kept going. 395 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 2: And then in the in the hotel room, I went 396 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: over in my head, comedians were we're an odd bunch 397 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: and if and if somebody, if there's one person doing 398 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 2: this with their arms folded in a that's all we 399 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 2: And I've heard Jerry Seinfeld say that it will kill 400 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: him and he will go over in his mind. I 401 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 2: do that too. And then I talk to a good 402 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 2: friend of mine who deals with a lot of wealthy 403 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: women in Nashville, and he said, Lene, I mean, think 404 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 2: about it. These women did not raise their own children. 405 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 2: These women have house managers. These women don't we're talking 406 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 2: about yeah, and then I mean and it made me 407 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 2: feel better because I thought I've gotten over it and 408 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,959 Speaker 2: I would have been fine because I'm you know, I've 409 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: been doing this a long time and I'm professional, but 410 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: at the but it does it hurts you and you 411 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 2: but I thought, Okay, they don't. They don't understand what 412 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 2: I'm talking about. I did talk about every day kind 413 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 2: of you know, mom stuff, menopause. Oh, I'm a grandmother. 414 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 2: A lot of people don't want to even know their grandparents. 415 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 2: They don't know. 416 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: Yah yah, yeah. Well the thing is you can't please everybody, 417 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: you know, So Ramona and it's about her and she's 418 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: at a different age. And you know, I have developed 419 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: a nostalgia for the show that when I wasn't in it, 420 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: I wonder if I was ever there now, how I 421 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: would handle things. Definitely be interesting to say. We won't 422 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: see it, but you know, she says, so, she says, 423 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Are you kidding? I counted she 424 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: said it, You're kidding me four to five times. And 425 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: I think Ramona is a great reality character because she 426 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: always brings the drama, but she doesn't kill the party, 427 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: and she's absolutely nuts. So and I remember she's saying 428 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 1: like she's annoyed that I dated wealthy men. And she's annoyed. 429 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: She said, but by the way, the one thing that 430 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: no one has ever accused me of is getting anywhere 431 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: by anything but hard work. I work harder than anyone 432 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: around me, anyone on my on my team, anyone I 433 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: I that's like such a good confident thing that I 434 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: can have that I work so hard always. I can't. 435 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: It's just who I am. It's what I know. So 436 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 1: it's a great feeling when no one could ever take 437 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: that away from work luck, you know. And I'm sure 438 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: you could say the same. Working like a dog on 439 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: the road. 440 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, working like a don't you know you can? I know, 441 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 2: I'm sure you can outwork. It's no killing Bethony Lord. 442 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: So so she says, So here's the behind the scenes 443 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: of these shows. So I'm going to room alone with her, 444 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: And this is what happened years ago with Kelly, with 445 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: the I'm up here, you're down here, you know, the 446 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: cats scene. So now I'm gonna room alone with Ramona 447 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 1: and you're drinking alcohol at the house and like you've 448 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: got camera guys and they're you know, they're the changing 449 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: of the guard. They're not going to say anything, and 450 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: the producers aren't going to say anything because every producer 451 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: tells every uh character, they did great, it went well. 452 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: They nod, You're perfect, you did everything right. Good for you, 453 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: they nod. And the person's like, it wasn't that bad, 454 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: was it? 455 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 2: No? 456 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: No, it wasn't bad at all. Like right, and you 457 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: never know where you are. You have vertigo at all 458 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: times because your mind is playing tricks on you, so 459 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: you don't walk out. When I walked out of the 460 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: Kelly thing, I have a I'm very self aware, so 461 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: I thought I was kind of tire, and I walked out, 462 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: and the producer said to me, quote unquote, in the car, 463 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: your publicist would be very proud right now. So I 464 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: thought I had done something, but who knows what the 465 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: hell they told her? And I thought, but you second 466 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: guessed yourself, and you just don't know what's coming out 467 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: of the oven. The edit could be different than you thought. 468 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: So in this situation, I didn't even see the humor 469 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: in it. I was probably panicked inside by the things 470 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: she was saying, and it felt like she had come 471 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,239 Speaker 1: and attacked me. And I remember calling Andy Cohen, and 472 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: I remember calling everyone and not getting the reaction that 473 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: I wanted from them, like not them saying, oh my god, 474 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: there's never been a trashing like this in the Housewives history, 475 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: oh my god. And they give you no like Andy, 476 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: No one gave me any cards like it was like 477 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: they acted like it was just like a normal scene. 478 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: Because to them, they're watching that hundreds of these scenes 479 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: and it's all blending and they don't care because there 480 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: are no stakes for them. So I remember, And then 481 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: you have to wait for this fucking thing to go 482 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: in the oven be baked, and then you watch it 483 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: so degrading, You watch it four days before everybody else, 484 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: so you have no new knowledge. You don't know how 485 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: this thing came out. And when I it, I you know, 486 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: things get taken out or added it down, and it 487 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: seemed bad, but it seemed way worse than the moment 488 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: because I was You're just so paranoid about what everyone's 489 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: going to see and what she said about me, And 490 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: then everybody finds this mention at all, thing that they 491 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: think is hilarious that I didn't even think it's just me. 492 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: I had no idea that was funny.

And I 498 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 2: thought the whole time, I thought, hew in the world 499 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 2: has she said in this? Because I started thinking about 500 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 2: and this is And I may not have everything right 501 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 2: because it's been a while that years ago when you 502 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 2: and Jail fell out, but I remember the pain. I 503 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 2: had a breakup with a girlfriend like that, and I 504 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 2: remember Jill being heard over you and you heard and 505 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: then Bobby and all that. All that's going on while Ramona, 506 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even know. I'm not probably being loasted. 507 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 2: I just I just think, how did you go through 508 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: that benthony with the baby, with the ex husband. I 509 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 2: just look at all that what was happening. And I 510 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: know now I'm getting personal and I don't maintain, but 511 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 2: I just watched it and I thought, how did that 512 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 2: little thing make it through that? Well? 513 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: You had you, but it was way better. Well it 514 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: was way better than because it was so real and 515 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: there was no hair and makeup, and you didn't even 516 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: know what show you were on because it was called 517 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: Manhattan Moms till they changed it, and you were just 518 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: doing something new in a new genre. You didn't walk 519 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: in with God with the wind dresses of Goldline May 520 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: and the Reunion. You wore some shitty dress in your closet, 521 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: and it was so authentic. You didn't have glam squads, 522 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: you didn't have glam for the interviews. You wore some 523 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,959 Speaker 1: shitty cardigan and did in your own house, so there 524 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 1: was an authenticity to it. I was also I had 525 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: eight thousand dollars to my name walking into the first 526 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: season where I got paid two hundred and fifty dollars, 527 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: like it was a gig. It was a job. You know, 528 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: you weren't even really famous yet, like people didn't really 529 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: It was very niche, and we were creating this genre 530 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 1: that would go on for decades, and creating, you know, 531 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 1: making a millionaire out of Andy Cohen, who started off 532 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: as an executive, and you know, it just was a 533 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,199 Speaker 1: whole different thing. And my skinny girl thing shook the 534 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: core of the whole thing. It shook the core. But 535 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 1: I knew that that was going to happen. I had 536 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: this sort of plan and it's been an interesting ride. 537 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: And in that scene with Ramona and also she had 538 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 1: previously on the Brooklyn Bridge decimated me in my life 539 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,239 Speaker 1: and said, terrible thing. She's got a mean streak and 540 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: she has to like take you down because taking you 541 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: down brings her up. And she's always had it for me. 542 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: She and Luanne in particular, have always had it for me. 543 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 1: And Jill was just playing the zero sum game. She 544 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: was feeling herself. She was drinking her fame, she was 545 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 1: drinking the kool aid. And during the summer, something happened 546 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: in an article and I, you know, I was trying 547 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: to not tell her every single thing I was doing 548 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: because I got a co host gig on a talk 549 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: show and she called them up and said I'm better 550 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: than her, and like she was competing a little bit 551 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: quietly competing, but also my friend, And this is what's 552 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: happening to these women. And the reason I know that 553 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: is that I've spoken to people from Beverly Hills and 554 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, they invited me to go to this country, 555 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: and no one else got that, and they wanted only me, 556 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: like everybody's competing, it's women in a fucking pitbull cage. 557 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: So with Jill, we came back and she thought she 558 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: had a smoking gun, so she thought she was going 559 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: to say to me, you didn't call Bobby when he 560 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: had cancer in the beginning of a scene of a season, 561 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 1: and that she was going to take me down because 562 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: it's a zero sum game and someone's got to get 563 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: killed and someone's got to be winning. I'm just pretty 564 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: fucking fast. And as Andy saw on that crazy reunion, 565 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: when everyone was hating me, when Carol was after me, 566 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: when Derinda was after me, when Mamona was after me, 567 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: when Luam would have been my only ally, but I 568 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 1: made them let her stay home because she had had 569 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: her whole crazy intervention, and I took them on by myself, 570 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 1: like a sniper. I just sat there and won at 571 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: a time, I took him on, and you better get 572 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: up really early in the morning to try to take 573 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 1: my ass down. These women never had a shot, but 574 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: they kept trying, and I give them credit. So Ramona, sorry, 575 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: I'm talking so much. I never talked as much. I'm 576 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 1: just gonna I'm just remembering things. So Ramona came in 577 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: to take me down and afterwards, when I was calling everybody, 578 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: I thought a tree fell, but no one heard it, 579 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: Like did that just happen? Because you could be the 580 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: one that took the other, but you could be the 581 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: one that I could have attacked her. I don't you 582 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: don't remember? You blacked out? You black out? So I 583 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: like now watching Ramona recant the story to everyone that 584 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: was my favorite that I attacked her. 585 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: Oh my lord, okay, And I I can't hel help 586 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 2: Anthony because I'm feel sorry for Ramona because I think, 587 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 2: God love, she had no chance once so ever, and 588 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: it just sounded so penniful. Is she okay? Nihil? Is 589 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 2: she okay? Does anybody know? I just looked through this 590 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: whole episode and I just thought she was unhinged, bug 591 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 2: one unhinged. Could not even I mean, it didn't even 592 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: make sensese what she was saying. 593 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: Is she okay? There's no bar for Ramona because all 594 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: the things that she said have made the bar so 595 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: low for what she might do or say or miss 596 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: that it's a great place to be in because you 597 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: people laugh at it. It's like your uncle that, like 598 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, says the most off colored joke at a 599 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: lunch or a family party or the crazy aunt, like 600 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: there's not much she can't get away with because she 601 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: has not painted herself into the perfect corner. You know, 602 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: it's kind of great for her, like Luamne was a 603 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: darling and the the couges and it's appropriate, but Ramona 604 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: never said, well, she always acts like she's perfect. But 605 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 1: it just she just started off with such craziness the 606 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: very beginning that it doesn't matter what she does till now. 607 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: So and she's a great television character. And when I 608 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: left the series this last time, she said the show 609 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: will be better and trashed me and now calls me 610 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: to be on this pocket like but it doesn't matter. 611 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: It's like it's just noise. She asked me for advice 612 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: all the time, forgetting all the bad things she said 613 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: about me. It's it's just Ramona. So she's got revisionist history, 614 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: telling everyone that you know, I attacked her. And but 615 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: what I find interesting is to watch the show through 616 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: the lens of someone who's done it, and you can 617 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: watch Ramona spinning out on camera, like you know that 618 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: she's trying to tell other people that I attacked her, 619 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: but in her mind she's trying to also like apologize 620 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 1: and like, I don't know, I did have a lot 621 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: to drink. Like she's talking out of both sides of 622 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: her mouth. She knows she fucked up, she knows she 623 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: went too far. She's not entirely sure what she said, 624 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: but she's trying to convince herself and everyone else. And 625 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: it's like, hmm not everyone's buying it. 626 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: No, but they didn't buy it. And they were like, oh, 627 00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 2: shadd Romona, you really stepped in at this time. Yeah, 628 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 2: nobody agreed what Yeah, it was by d And like 629 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 2: she couldn't pull back from it. 630 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: She couldn't pull back from it. And another funny thing 631 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: is when I like someone but they're not the best housewife, 632 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: so you're it happened with you know, Kristen is a 633 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: lovely person and she just wasn't the best housewife. You know, 634 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: she's a lovely person, and Jules was sweet. Same thing. 635 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's like if you're a good starting player, sometimes 636 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: you really just want to get the not the street whatever, 637 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: the next level, the next string of players kind of 638 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: out of your way because you want to play tennis with, 639 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: like Federer. So like even if I don't love even 640 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: if I don't love Ramona for example, Like she's a 641 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: good she's a good tennis player, you know, so you 642 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: want your first you want your like good tennis players, 643 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: like you want your starting lineup, like you know, the 644 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: Sonya is even even you know, Ramona never been Land's 645 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: always like one notch down. She's always hiding something. But 646 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: the mistakes that she makes make her a starting player. 647 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: But so I bring all this up because Tinsley is 648 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: not really a starting player. But I really like her 649 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: and she's so nice, but sometimes you kind of just 650 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: want to get that like fluffy cotton candy out of 651 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: the way so you can like get to the meet, 652 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, you know what I mean, Like. 653 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like when you play sports in Hosco, if 654 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 2: you play up, you know, you play better if you 655 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 2: play somebody that she played worse. 656 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: Right, right, So it's hard because I like Tinsley a lot. 657 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: I think she was, you know, a nice person to 658 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: have around and she was decent. But sometimes she'd be like, 659 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: well let's talk about that later, and it's not the cameras, 660 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: like right, like I don't want to be here either. 661 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: She just not all the time. She just she doesn't 662 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: want to you know, she wants to do the Michelle 663 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: Obama program, which is great because she's not a big 664 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: gossip and she doesn't want to go low and she's lovely. 665 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: I really like Tinsley, but like, she was not built 666 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: for this. And sometimes you just don't want to be 667 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: like talking to Kristin or Tinseley about something in a 668 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: scene because you really want to get like you want 669 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: the meat off the bone. You're not really interested in 670 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: like the little side dishes the fat. So that's just 671 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: I just mentioned that because I liked Tinsley a lot. 672 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: I always liked her, so whatever that means. 673 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 2: But that scene at the art gallery when you when 674 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 2: Ramona comes up to who does she come up to 675 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 2: to hug Leuyne or somebody, and you go, I'm leaving 676 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 2: and you walk off, and I thought, oh lord, because 677 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: when somebody has done that to me in my life, 678 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: or I don't, I mean, I hadn't followed anybody like Ramona, 679 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 2: but when when somebody just goes, you know what, I'm 680 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 2: not doing this and walks off. I could tell that 681 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 2: when Ramona was like, oh no, you know, you just 682 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 2: weren't playing in that, and I thought that was smart. 683 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 2: I thought, oh. 684 00:33:55,680 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: Yes, she's I have the art of dismissal and that 685 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: she doesn't like that. You know art of dismissal. And 686 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: you know Ramona treats staff a certain way and doesn't 687 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: treat other people's belongings with respect, which is how she 688 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 1: stole two dresses of minor a talk show and the 689 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: way that she treated Dorinda's house. She was drunk. 690 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 2: What does she do what I couldn't remember? Did she 691 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: riped something out of the wall? 692 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: So it's breaking the fourth wall, but you have to 693 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,919 Speaker 1: because what happened was she went up to her room 694 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 1: and you'll have these bright lights like I have them 695 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: here in the podcast, these bright lights that are like 696 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: rigged and taped and Durinda probably is very old painting 697 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: that how she hadn't redone it yet and I'm sure she. 698 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: I think she got reimbursed, which is great because she 699 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 1: got either insurance or they paid her. It's great, like 700 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: to try, there's no money someone could pay to be 701 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: in my house and trash my house. Like I couldn't 702 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: handle what Durnda indoors. But because with her house being 703 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: a location sometimes and when Deinda, Ramona got to her 704 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: room and was wasted and wanted to go to bed. 705 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: She didn't think to go downstairs and tell somebody, can 706 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: you take the lights? And it's not like it's a 707 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: light switch, you gotta unplug it and find the plug. 708 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: So instead she wanted to go to bed, and she 709 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: just ripped everything off the wall. So it's stuff taped 710 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,479 Speaker 1: to the wall. So she just ripped all the lights 711 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: down so they just get off. It'd be like, you know, 712 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: just like ripping chords out. And so she trashed and 713 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,760 Speaker 1: which is totally believable, as much as it was believable 714 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: that every person who was ever on my talk show 715 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,399 Speaker 1: knows she stole the dresses. It happened. Yeah, I didn't 716 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: have to. It just happened. And I think and Sonya, 717 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,240 Speaker 1: you know what, that's the thing about getting drunk. Sonya 718 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: wore during his husband's pajamas and it's like funny but 719 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: almost Yeah, it's funny, but it's like not that funny. 720 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 1: And that's what happens when you're drinking and you know, 721 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: in a show and something's gonna happen. And then there 722 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: was some fake scenes in the episode, which there always are, 723 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: like the made for TV producer scenes, Carol showing Tinsley 724 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: the apartment down the hall. Tinsley was never going to move. 725 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: Tinsley was never moving to New York because she didn't 726 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: want to live in New York. She was staying in 727 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: a hotel because of the show. She was staying at 728 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: Sonya's because of the show. And that's like one of 729 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: those fake scenes. And I know they need the filler 730 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: scenes and they suck, but I never did those scenes. 731 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: I don't do fake filler bullshit scenes. Like she's not 732 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: moving in there. It's a co op building anyway, Like 733 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: it's just not happening. 734 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 2: I'm wondered. And when she said I can't get near 735 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 2: my this is not where I get my blow woe out. 736 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 2: So I'm not doing maas wow. But I love her 737 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 2: and I think she's beautiful. Okay, little Carol, Little Carol 738 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 2: with that man. Is she's still with me? I should 739 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 2: have googled thes Is she still with that young girl? 740 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: They're still friends, but they're not together. Sometimes maybe there 741 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 1: are benefits. I don't know that, That's what I hear. 742 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 2: Well, and he makes salad, you know, for he. 743 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: Makes salad for her? Yeah, yeah, she she She spends 744 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: a lot of time talking about me and a lot 745 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: of time talking about the show, and it's a long 746 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 1: time ago for something that she really doesn't like, she 747 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 1: also spends a lot of time talking about it. Okay, 748 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: so now I'm with my assistance and you mentioned that 749 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: I was a little ripped. I think time is so 750 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: important how we spend it. And you get pulled in 751 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: different directions and you say yes, and everything sounds good 752 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: on a calendar, but then you really have to execute 753 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: it and it's it's not the same. But I was 754 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 1: obviously more focused on the moths. I had a moth. 755 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: Have you ever had a moth investigation? 756 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? And I say, and I looked at your moths 757 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 2: and I thought, are those the moths that get in 758 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 2: my pantry? It was it the tiny malls that get 759 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 2: in your paintrey and get in your flower. 760 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: Those are different. It's funny that you say that, because 761 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: I've done a lot of research on mobs and Paul 762 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: just had a moth infestation in Boston and it's it's maddening. 763 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: It's not maddening. It's maddening. And their babies and they 764 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: lay larva which look like these little strings on your sweaters, 765 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,320 Speaker 1: and it's not maddening because you get holes in your sweater. 766 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: That is maddening and you then don't realize till a 767 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: year later, like all your cushy stuff. But moths love 768 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: the best stuff. They have good taste, they love. They're 769 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: like Erica Jane. They want expensive. It's expensive to be me. 770 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: They want to lay in like the soft, cuddly, cushiest 771 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: stuff you have. So and thank God in Boston, I 772 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: have just my lounge around stuff with Paul. I don't 773 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: have like my really good Lori piano cashme. I would 774 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: be institutionalized, so all the moths and Paul was like, 775 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: we can go shopping and I wasn't gonna like. I 776 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: was like, who cares, It's just crap shit anyway. So 777 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: that's not the worst process. The worst process is that 778 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: you have to take every single garment out of your 779 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: house have it dry cleaned. I did it with Madame 780 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: paul Lett, and you have to have them come in 781 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: and fully exterminate and like your clothes have to be 782 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: taken out and put back, and it's thousands of dollars. 783 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, that's one of the things 784 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: you think if you're poor, like you're getting mothballs. It's 785 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: not gonna it's not gonna do it. I mean, you 786 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: may not have Laura piano cashmer if you're poor. I 787 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 1: get it, But to wash every single garment, it's like lice, 788 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: but ten times worse. You have to wash every garment 789 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: and every it's a fucking nightmare. So I was panicked 790 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: when I saw those moths must have been like babies. 791 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: You know, it was a night My. 792 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 2: Sister had that in her closet and it calls her 793 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 2: a thousands and she's got beautiful playing. So my sister does. 794 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 2: My sister married a very well today my later in life, 795 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 2: and I'm married young and we struggled, and so I 796 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 2: didn't have I don't have moths trying to eat my 797 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 2: I mean I could have some a few things, but 798 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 2: not like you and my sister. I had the kind 799 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:13,919 Speaker 2: that went in the pantry where you have to throw 800 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: everything you've ever owned out that you in your pantry, 801 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 2: and then had somebody come in and do all that. 802 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 2: But it doesn't cost thousands like my sister. She went 803 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 2: through that. It was horrible. I thought, oh no. 804 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: So you active, do be proactive and have the little 805 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: cedar balls in your drawers and be proactive and clean 806 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: your clothes and like, look out and get it before 807 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: it gets you. It's a nightmare. So that was my 808 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: moth issue, which was not a small affair, and we 809 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: just did it again. But thank god it was in 810 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:45,760 Speaker 1: Boston because Paul, well. 811 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 2: And you were tired and we're going through a lot, 812 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 2: you know, and that makes it even worse. You just 813 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 2: sit on the bed and I thought, oh, I know 814 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 2: how she failed. And you were on TV every day. 815 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 2: I thought, if somebody was coming in and doing I'm exhausted. 816 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: But if somebody if I had to have everything in 817 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 2: my house right or you know, going in to do 818 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: and then I had to fight Ramona. I just don't 819 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 2: know how in the world you did it. It makes 820 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: me feel like I'm a mother and I'm a grandmother. 821 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 2: I just felt like I needed to hold you. But 822 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 2: you're a tump little boger. But you're a tump little boger, 823 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 2: Yeah you are. 824 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: I'm tough. 825 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 2: Now. 826 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: I think about the scene with Tom and the whole 827 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: group with Jill, and I liked the Jill admitted that 828 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: she missed it all. Like it mean she's saying that 829 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: she misses the show and she's saying she misses the drama. 830 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: And I think, but I always thought this because I 831 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: was the one who called it out in the beginning 832 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: when it wasn't popular. The worst is being on a 833 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: reality show and calling things out and you look like 834 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: the hater and you're calling out Tom because it just 835 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: isn't tracking. And Luanne's trying to just like rinse it 836 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 1: with fairy dust. Everything Lewenne does. She has found Tom 837 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: and like everything is perfect. There's no problems with Tom. 838 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,760 Speaker 1: Everything's great. Like these housewives want to make their person 839 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: perfect on the show because they're trying to sell something 840 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,240 Speaker 1: to the other women. So the women don't like, uncover 841 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 1: the bag of skeletons and sell it to the audience. 842 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 1: And he just seemed like he wasn't looking anyone in 843 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: the face in the eye, and he seemed cagey and 844 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: like he just didn't seem trustworthy. He did not look 845 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: like a trustworthy person. 846 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: Oh. I knew that from the minute. I thought, oh 847 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 2: my lord, what he's low Wayne doing. And I thought, well, 848 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 2: I guess she's been wounded by that little man that 849 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 2: his people dug the canal. But when she was in 850 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 2: the car going to her wedding, and he said, I 851 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 2: get she said we shouldn't be together the night for 852 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 2: our wedding. Somebody's saying and he's saying, Oh, I get 853 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 2: a haul pants, I'm going out that night. Oh he 854 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 2: is so gross by. And then low Wayne's sitting up 855 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 2: there with Turquois own. I know she's from Native people, 856 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 2: but I thought, what do you day? When Lee wangan you? Not? 857 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 2: What are you day? When I mean everybody knew Tom 858 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 2: dang doll. 859 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: Well, she wanted to like check the box, and so 860 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: she wanted to make him like it's a Tom Dear 861 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: Gastino and we're in the penthouse, which it was just 862 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 1: an apartment on the top floor that was like not 863 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 1: any great shakes. And she's always like in Palm Beach, 864 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 1: but it's not Palm Beach. It's over the bridge. So 865 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: Tinsey has to call around on that. Everything's just like 866 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: sort of half a story. So she's trying to really 867 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: sell him to everyone, and no one's buying it. In 868 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: nineteen housewives have slept with him and it's just not 869 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: a great story. And and Ramona dated Tom and some 870 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: other friend and Ramona's other friends forgot her name, like 871 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: Hillary or Monica or some other one of their other friends. 872 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: There's there are three people that were on the adjacent 873 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,240 Speaker 1: to the show that have dated us up a Tom 874 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 1: and I had a friend who knew someone who had 875 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: dated Tom and who saw Tom making out with the woman. 876 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: He just is one of those guys. 877 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 2: It seemed like it was a cute in person anyway. 878 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 1: Okay, no, not cut person in my opinion, But that's 879 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: not even the big priority to me. And maybe he 880 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: got married to someone else and it ended up working great. 881 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe the combination of the two of 882 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: them was kryptonite. I don't know. But she wanted to 883 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: drink him pretty and now she's single with her cabaret, 884 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,439 Speaker 1: so you know, she's like she's an actress at heart. 885 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: But and it was funny that Jill said that she 886 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: was upset that I wasn't invited to the wedding. I 887 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 1: think there was no world where I don't remember it 888 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: even being a discussion. I can't. I don't know of 889 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 1: me being invited to the wedding, like I don't. I 890 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: just don't even think that that. I like that. I 891 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: like that that was not fake on the show, like 892 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: the Teresa has to invite every single person she's ever 893 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: met in the Bravos fear to the wedding. I don't 894 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:06,720 Speaker 1: like Luanne Lewyne doesn't like me like I'm Manivit's the wedding, perfect, perfect, perfect. 895 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 2: And do you think but I felt like Jill? You 896 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 2: know when you say, oh, I wish I could be 897 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 2: with her. I thought she was going to be at 898 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 2: the wedding. Well, I don't want to eat lunch with her, 899 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 2: but I want to be with her at the wedding. 900 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 2: Do you think Jill has grieved over you? 901 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: I think she has, But Jill doesn't. Jill so smart 902 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 1: cookie that doesn't play the long game, so you might 903 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 1: as well be not smart. Jill always plays the immediate thing. 904 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: She wants the immediate thing, and even if it's her 905 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: most recently negotiating with brab and wanting to get her number, 906 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: and let's say they don't get her number and she 907 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,839 Speaker 1: walks away, then she does a press tour about it, 908 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 1: versus sitting tight and playing the long game. When because 909 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 1: of her and everybody else, the negotiating for the most 910 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,439 Speaker 1: recent Real Housewives legacy show didn't work, not only because 911 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: Jill wanted to be paid as much as everybody else, 912 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: and then negotiated herself out of it. But if everybody 913 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 1: else with the difference and came down a little in 914 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: their money because it is a new show and some 915 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: of them had been fired, they all would have met 916 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: somewhere in the middle. So Jill over negotiated and overplayed 917 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: her hand, and so did the more expensive crew, thinking 918 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: that they should be paid much more than her cast. 919 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 1: So did the expensive the expensive cast that they thought 920 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 1: they should be back to where they were on Housewives. 921 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 1: Instead of everyone meeting in the middle, they would have 922 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: had probably an eight to twelve episode show. So now 923 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: what Bravo did, which is the cheapest because it's going 924 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: to cost them like one hundred thousand a housewife for 925 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: a week's travel, and they're going to get multiple episodes 926 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 1: of it. It's much cheaper than Bravo hiring them for 927 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:44,439 Speaker 1: a whole legacy show and having to pay pay each 928 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: of them a couple hundred thousand dollars. So Bravo did 929 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 1: something much cheaper, but they left Jill out of it 930 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,919 Speaker 1: because of her press tour presumably and trashing everybody and 931 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,280 Speaker 1: telling the story about what happened and why a legacy 932 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: didn't happen. So instead of Jill play her cards right, 933 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 1: she burned the bridge to get on that show that 934 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,760 Speaker 1: she could have been on for six episodes on Peacock 935 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: and then she would have been on two shows because 936 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: they're doing like a legacy trip instead of doing a 937 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: legacy show. Does that make sense to you? 938 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, yeah, she. 939 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: Goes on Andy Cohen's show after years when she left 940 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: the show and he had her on and she records 941 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: him on the show. That's like, so he found out 942 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: she was recording it to make sure that he didn't 943 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 1: edit her in a certain way. So that's not playing 944 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,399 Speaker 1: the long game. She used to argue with Bravo over 945 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 1: the price of car services and try to finagle and 946 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: like then she would get a bad reputation. It's just 947 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: not she doesn't play the long game. 948 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 2: M hm. Oh, I didn't realize by it, Yeah, you 949 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 2: gotta play the long game. Oh you would think that 950 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:50,280 Speaker 2: Gill would be smart enough today by it? 951 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: Yep, she can't help herself. So what did you think 952 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 1: about the art show? I thought, you know, it's Carol's 953 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: interesting neighbors, which she has a good relationship with her building, 954 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,360 Speaker 1: and it's like a commune over there. They have co 955 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: parenting dogs, and you know, Adam's friends with having in 956 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: her building, and someone in her building painted her nude. 957 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 2: M h I thought she what did you think it was, Bethany, 958 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:15,320 Speaker 2: what did you think? 959 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was a great thing to get awareness 960 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: for the artists and fill a scene for the show. 961 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 2: Mm hmm, yes, yeah, yeah, I mean I thought, I 962 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 2: mean little Carol. I mean, I guess she's I don't 963 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 2: want to say she's not interesting to me, but she 964 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 2: just never grabbed me. I think she's you know, tiny 965 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 2: in her pants and all of that. No, I don't 966 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 2: even know what to say, because yeah, I just did. 967 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 2: What I remember about it was Ramona coming up, you know, 968 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 2: blared eyed, looking crazy, and you said I'm going in. 969 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 2: I thought, oh, that's the way to do things, you know, 970 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 2: and not even entertain it. And I could feel Roman's 971 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 2: heart being out of her body through that. 972 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 1: Well. She called me, She called me Cruella Deville, and 973 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,919 Speaker 1: she called me like a Halloween character at Dorinda's house 974 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: at another scene where she looked like the Tales from 975 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,280 Speaker 1: the Crypt. Because she's not able to use her words 976 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: in an articulate manner, so she's just to call me names. 977 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 1: But that scene is a good example of a scene 978 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: that's a vehicle for another scene. That's my point about 979 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: A players. And Carol's not an A player in the show. 980 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 1: She was a B player, so but her nudity scene 981 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: with the art was a good vehicle to have a 982 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: Derenda Bethany Ramona conflict recap. So it doesn't matter whether 983 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: we were a Burger king or you know, fucking Disneyland 984 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 1: Carol's boring art scene. You know, Carol had a lot 985 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 1: of those scenes like going to get the ashes, which 986 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: is you know, meaningful and I understand, but that was 987 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 1: a boring scene. So it's these scenes that are just 988 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 1: filler with these other players that you need because not 989 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 1: everybody can be the A player otherwise it's going to 990 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 1: be too much type A, you know. But you have 991 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 1: these like Jacqueline Marita is a great, great player on 992 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: a Jersey show to be nice and some filler and 993 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,799 Speaker 1: her daughter and her husband was good, but some and 994 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: sometimes the player has people around them that are good 995 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 1: that all together they make up a housewife, like Dory 996 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,240 Speaker 1: and p K make up one housewife. Alex and Simon 997 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: made up a housewife. Melissa and Joe made up one 998 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 1: housewife without the husband or the people around. These people, 999 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 1: they might not make up a whole housewife. 1000 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 2: Oh, Bethany, you know, I never thought of it that way, 1001 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 2: but I've watched all these and that makes perfect sense. Yeah, 1002 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:54,800 Speaker 2: because Dary they up with that big Chanelle handman on. 1003 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 2: I mean, but then p K and boy George, I 1004 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 2: mean that might that might sense to me. 1005 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:03,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, And her outfit is part of her character. She 1006 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: needs that outfit so she can add to what she's 1007 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 1: bringing to the table. You know, some of us, Sorinda 1008 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,280 Speaker 1: and I could walk in their nude. It doesn't matter. 1009 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what we're wearing. And that's, as Margaret 1010 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 1: Chow so eloquently put it, that's like a suit of armor. 1011 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 1: And she's walking in with something that she's bringing to 1012 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: the table besides her Like that's part of her persona 1013 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 1: and part of her character. So that does a lot 1014 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 1: of the work for her. The houses and the bags 1015 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:38,320 Speaker 1: and the logos and the abc DFG alphabet of Gucci Fendi, 1016 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:42,720 Speaker 1: do your Chanelle LV, all the letters they're a character 1017 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 1: mm hmm. 1018 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 2: And the little brands, you know, and an odd hairdoo. 1019 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 1: Erica started it all everybody copied Erica, do recopied Erica, 1020 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 1: Lisa copied Door Read and Erica Kyle came in with 1021 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 1: the crazy hairstyles and the Australian designer dresses. They all 1022 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 1: copied Erica. She brought fashion. She brought costumes to the housewives, 1023 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 1: not fashion, because to me, fashion isn't wearing all logos 1024 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: and wearing something that looks uncomfortable and like it's so forced. Otherwise, 1025 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 1: if it was real fashion, I think these girls would 1026 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,760 Speaker 1: have been invited to the mech Galibi. Now it feels 1027 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 1: like a costume and like just forced logos. But Erica 1028 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: gets credit for it. She said, I'm on TV and 1029 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 1: every moment will be a hair and makeup moment and 1030 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,760 Speaker 1: a costume. And I was against that in the beginning 1031 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: when Kristen came in with costumes and two different shoes, 1032 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: because I always thought, God, focus on the story and 1033 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 1: your personality, don't focus so much on the shoes. Because 1034 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 1: I never gave a shit about the clothes a little 1035 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: a little and wanted to look better as people looked better. 1036 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 1: But I would probably wither in Beverly Hills because I 1037 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't want to keep up with that shit. It's too competitive. 1038 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,720 Speaker 1: Like the dressing. I'll keep up with anybody with the banter, 1039 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: but not the clothes. 1040 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 2: I don't care about that, right, Well, you don't, honey. 1041 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 2: I would rather if somebody said you've got to pick one, 1042 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 2: what do you want and say, I want to have 1043 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,840 Speaker 2: Bethany's band for if I if I had to go 1044 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 2: in and find if I had to do all y'all 1045 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,320 Speaker 2: had to do, I would want to be quick witted 1046 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:14,360 Speaker 2: and sharp and funny. And I hope that. I hope 1047 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,320 Speaker 2: as you get older in this world, because I'm older 1048 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 2: than you, I hope you can keep that win. I 1049 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 2: feel like I used to have that kind of sharp 1050 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 2: and now I feel like I'm just I'm getting in 1051 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 2: a fog because of menopause. But I hope that you 1052 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 2: keep that because that is what makes you Benthany, That's 1053 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 2: what makes you and it and it's very entertaining. Wow, 1054 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 2: And I just watching that episode, I look back, You're right. 1055 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,359 Speaker 2: There are people that just kind of fade into the background, 1056 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 2: and then there are people who hold it, hold that scene. 1057 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 2: And I just the whole time I thought, and and 1058 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 2: you're tough. You are tough, and you've been through a 1059 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 2: lot and you grew up going through a lot, but 1060 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 2: I still wanted to. I thought if I could just 1061 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 2: cook for her, and I know you'll want to cook, 1062 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 2: but I thought if I could just go in and 1063 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,399 Speaker 2: do a load of wash for her. She's got so much. 1064 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you Angel. 1065 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 1: Well, it was amazing to talk to you again, and 1066 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:09,280 Speaker 1: thank you so much for doing this and for watching, 1067 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 1: and good luck with your tour and with Netflix and 1068 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: with Ree Swederspoon, and you're it's amazing to have this 1069 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,320 Speaker 1: career at fifty seven years old.
