Speaker 1: To Teas in a Pod which Teddy Mellencamp and camera Judge.
Speaker 2: Hi, guys, welcome to another episode of to Teas and
Speaker 2: a Pod with myself, Teddy Mellencamp and Damn.
Speaker 3: Rich Judge and sick today.
Speaker 2: Me too, been hacking up along.
Speaker 3: Yes, he's been really sick for like four days now.
Speaker 3: Last night I'm like, oh no, no.
Speaker 2: I feel the tickle. I filled the tickle. But today
Speaker 2: on the twat seat we have Rebecca Minkoff coming on.
Speaker 2: She's known for her global, accessible luxury fashion brand that
Speaker 2: was created in two thousand and five. Rebecca Minkoff is
Speaker 2: a best selling author and powerhouse entrepreneur who has paved
Speaker 2: the way for Minnie and is the co founder of
Speaker 2: the Female Under Collective. Rebecca is dedicated to creating the
Speaker 2: modern cultural and business narrative of togetherness and a shared success.
Speaker 2: She continues to push boundaries, lead the fashion industry, and
Speaker 2: galvanized communities of women by promoting confidence, fearlessness, and authenticity.
Speaker 2: She is a loving wife and devoted mother of four.
Speaker 2: Rebecca's reputation precedes her, but we'll be impressing. This new
Speaker 2: group of friends proved more difficult than creating one hundred
Speaker 2: million dollar brand.
Speaker 3: One hundred million dollars.
Speaker 2: One hundred dollars. Well, let's bring her on in. Let's
Speaker 2: let's let's get to quizin.
Speaker 3: Let's go.
Speaker 4: I know I have this, just so you know, I'm
Speaker 4: I'm professional, you're very professionally.
Speaker 3: I very perfect. Anything less, I mean with a hundred
Speaker 3: million dollar brand. She ain't been around, right, she's got
Speaker 3: a gold plated, diamond encrusted mic over there, watch out more.
Speaker 2: How are you?
Speaker 4: I'm good, I'm good. I'm tired, but good. I had
Speaker 4: a late night with the girls.
Speaker 2: Oh really with the girls?
Speaker 3: You mean the whole cast?
Speaker 4: No. Raquel Jessela and I were on the Virtual Reality
Speaker 4: Live podcast event last night.
Speaker 2: I saw that.
Speaker 3: Where was that? It was in New York.
Speaker 4: It was in New York, somewhere in Chelsea, I can't
Speaker 4: tell you where. And then we went out for dinner afterwards,
Speaker 4: because like you know, as you know, we're trauma bonded,
Speaker 4: so we just need to keep talking about it.
Speaker 3: I saw you through a little shade, I did. I
Speaker 3: saw that on social media today and I saw that
Speaker 3: you threw a little shade towards well, I would say
Speaker 3: shade back at Aaron because Aaron had made a comment
Speaker 3: about the bag you gifted her and basically said, well,
Speaker 3: it's not my style. And you were asked on that
Speaker 3: panel what is her style?
Speaker 4: And you said, I said, she's not in fashion. So
Speaker 4: the bar is pretty love for her. She doesn't have
Speaker 4: to have great style, you know.
Speaker 3: And I also heard either you or the host say
Speaker 3: she had a bag collection of her own.
Speaker 4: She had a bad company many many years ago. I yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm not. I don't know that much about it, but
Speaker 4: I would love to be gifted one of her bags
Speaker 4: if that brand was still in business.
Speaker 3: I think Rebecca, what you said was does she still
Speaker 3: have it?
Speaker 2: Is it still around? No? But she talked about it
Speaker 2: on the show this season.
Speaker 3: Oh she did. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think that her and Abe may have had a
Speaker 2: discussion about financials in regards to that business and et cetera,
Speaker 2: et cetera.
Speaker 4: Yes, I missed. There were some debts that need to
Speaker 4: be paid off. And listen, we have had our share
Speaker 4: of debts, so believe me, this is an expensive business
Speaker 4: to be in. It is not easy.
Speaker 3: I think any big business you have, you're gonna have debts.
Speaker 2: This leans this point because now you've had your business
Speaker 2: since two thousand and five. How you know some business
Speaker 2: owners like come in and out on how much they
Speaker 2: are still a part of the business. Are you still
Speaker 2: one hundred percent? This is what you're doing every day.
Speaker 4: It is what I'm doing every day. We sold the
Speaker 4: business two years ago, so Covid was really really hard
Speaker 4: for us. We almost went out of business. It would
Speaker 4: have been easier to go out of business and stick around,
Speaker 4: but my brother who was my co founder, we basically said,
Speaker 4: we just put seventeen years into this thing, like we
Speaker 4: owe it to ourselves and the tiny team we have
Speaker 4: left to just keep going. And we made it through,
Speaker 4: and then supply chain issues almost crushed us again right
Speaker 4: as we were like, okay, we survived Covid, and we
Speaker 4: just decided we needed a partner that had like muscle
Speaker 4: that had been this is in China and Hong Kong
Speaker 4: and new sourcing, and we were just like, we need
Speaker 4: a bigger, better partner because we're losing, you know, the
Speaker 4: factories are prioritizing the bigger brands, right, And so we
Speaker 4: sold it too years ago and I was like, I'm here,
Speaker 4: I'm here, I have the same job. I'm a happily
Speaker 4: paid employee, but it's my name, is my day?
Speaker 3: Do you have like a certain amount of years that
Speaker 3: you have to stay or you just taken it day
Speaker 3: by day?
Speaker 4: So I signed a five year contract, but everyone's like,
Speaker 4: so you can leave when it's over, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 4: what am I going to go do? Like I kind
Speaker 4: of want to be a doula, but I don't want
Speaker 4: to get up in the middle of night to make
Speaker 4: a baby come out of someone.
Speaker 3: Why do you want to be a doula?
Speaker 2: Doula?
Speaker 4: I just this is total side note. I'm obsessed with
Speaker 4: all things birth, and I think that they are magical creatures,
Speaker 4: these doulas, and so part of me.
Speaker 3: Is this a prank?
Speaker 4: This is not a prank. No, it is not a prank.
Speaker 4: I will not pull any more pranks again, ladies, I've
Speaker 4: I've heard it loud and clear. Can we ever.
Speaker 3: Straight into that prank? Whose idea was it? Originally?
Speaker 4: Originally I was at lunch with Air in which you
Speaker 4: saw like one tenth of the scene, and we were
Speaker 4: talking about how the rumors in the group are getting
Speaker 4: out of hand and making people upset, very upset. You
Speaker 4: saw it with and the uber and just a host
Speaker 4: of other bullshit and I said, what if we start
Speaker 4: a rumor that's so unbelievable that like you'd be an
Speaker 4: idiot to share it. I said, what if I say
Speaker 4: I'm pregnant and I believe I could be proven wrong,
Speaker 4: but I've almost positive. Aaron said, and you don't know
Speaker 4: who the father is? And we thought it was funny.
Speaker 4: It did not occur to me that that was highly insensitive.
Speaker 4: I am very much aware of that as someone who
Speaker 4: also struggled with infertility, that it was insensitive. And we
Speaker 4: left that lunch and it was just like, let's see
Speaker 4: who the leakiest. I won't say the word teddy, thank
Speaker 4: godd and just see what happens.
Speaker 3: But then it all okay, Eric separate there. That mean
Speaker 3: that means if you did that on camera, then production
Speaker 3: knew that it was a prank.
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Do you feel like it would have played better if
Speaker 3: they would have showed you guys saying this is a
Speaker 3: prank from the very beginning.
Speaker 4: Listen, I'm not in control that process, but I think
Speaker 4: in my head, being the innocent deer in headlights that
Speaker 4: I was, I thought, oh, this will be shown in
Speaker 4: chronological order, so the audience will go, well, no, you know,
Speaker 4: I didn't know that it was going to trick the audience.
Speaker 4: That wasn't my goal. And it wasn't because I said,
Speaker 4: I'm boring. I didn't even know that she had said
Speaker 4: that yet. So it was literally like, let's find the liar,
Speaker 4: that's my whole goal.
Speaker 2: But then that nobody found the liar because then everybody
Speaker 2: was told different parts of it. So what kind of
Speaker 2: ship prank is it? Even when people know about it?
Speaker 4: Maybe you should that Aaron, who you know, who's the
Speaker 4: one that told everybody? I didn't even know she told
Speaker 4: anybody tell the picnic. That's why I was. I was
Speaker 4: shocked in silence. I was just like, well, then.
Speaker 3: When everybody knows, the only person you're pranking is the audience.
Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, I you're right. I had the idea. I
Speaker 4: did not know that Aaron would tell other people and
Speaker 4: it would be point with pointless at that point.
Speaker 2: I think Aaron was possibly tipsy on this post strengths
Speaker 2: where she told Bren and maybe forgot that she leaked
Speaker 2: that little tidbit.
Speaker 4: I mean, in her confessional she does say she was
Speaker 4: like shook her head like no, but I still I don't.
Speaker 4: It's so annoying. I think that she still thinks and
Speaker 4: Brenn still alleges that she didn't think that Brynn was
Speaker 4: going to embellish it, or share or exaggerate the way
Speaker 4: that she did, or or decide brend decide on her own. Hey,
Speaker 4: I'm going to participate in this?
Speaker 2: Well what at that point? Why not? I mean, I
Speaker 2: don't really see anything wrong with Brynn adding fuel to
Speaker 2: the fire if we're all going to find out it's
Speaker 2: a prank anyhow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I even apologize to Brin at the picnic,
Speaker 4: which you also don't see. I was like, I'm sorry
Speaker 4: you were framed. That was That was definitely not how
Speaker 4: I thought this would go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, how were you ultimately convinced to join the cast.
Speaker 3: Because we feel like you were convinced.
Speaker 4: I had a call with one of the producers who
Speaker 4: said that, you know, pointed out that all the women
Speaker 4: are not housewives, they are all female entrepreneurs, founders, and
Speaker 4: they really wanted the direction the show to be fun
Speaker 4: and funny with a little bit of drama. And I said,
Speaker 4: I'm good with that. You know, had you watched the
Speaker 4: show before, I had watched the first season before. Yes, okay, okay,
Speaker 4: and I and I you know again, it was like,
Speaker 4: it'll be even lighter this season, more funny, more fun
Speaker 4: And I was like, I can sign up for that.
Speaker 4: That sounds great.
Speaker 3: Had you been asked before in the past.
Speaker 4: No, that this whole this whole process started October of
Speaker 4: the year before.
Speaker 3: Now do you know any of the prior cast.
Speaker 4: So I knew Jenna from just being in fashion and
Speaker 4: making a huge mistake and taking an elevator with her
Speaker 4: and Anna Wintour and that was the end of my
Speaker 4: relationship with Anna because you're not allowed in the elevator
Speaker 4: with Anna.
Speaker 2: Just want to let it hold on only one person
Speaker 2: at a time.
Speaker 3: I need to know more about this.
Speaker 4: So there's a rule. I've been told that if she
Speaker 4: gets in the elevator, you can't get in with her.
Speaker 2: So how was Jenna in with her?
Speaker 4: Because they were they were co hosting an event together
Speaker 4: when Jenna was at j Crew And this was like
Speaker 4: fifteen years ago, and I was just excited to be
Speaker 4: invited to anything. And I just was like, Oh, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna get in the elevator house.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, did you try to talk to her?
Speaker 4: Yes? I had.
Speaker 3: I was like what'd you say?
Speaker 4: I was like, hello, how's everyone feeling today? Is everyone
Speaker 4: you know? I was on and it's all schipp or kitty?
Speaker 3: Did she respond like shut up?
Speaker 4: It got silent. It was awkward, and I was like,
Speaker 4: right right, I must have missed the memo somewhere.
Speaker 3: So don't feel bad.
Speaker 2: It happened to me. Was Bob Dylan. I didn't know
Speaker 2: you can't make eye contact or shake his hand, and
Speaker 2: so he went to put his paw like fist pump,
Speaker 2: and then I shook the paw.
Speaker 3: His stump and it was one of the most who
Speaker 3: did your dad tell you?
Speaker 4: Like, oh my god?
Speaker 2: Well no, After the fact, I was like that was awkward,
Speaker 2: and they're like, well, yeah, Teddy, he's still do handshakes
Speaker 2: and there's no icon to.
Speaker 4: Take jermaphone Like yeah, I think, so, oh my god.
Speaker 2: But either way, when those things happen, like I feel
Speaker 2: like the people that you know, Anna Winter and Bob
Speaker 2: Dyla and they've moved right on. But I will like
Speaker 2: self hate for weeks about it, overthinking.
Speaker 4: I'm still thinking of fifteen years later. I'm like, maybe
Speaker 4: that's why you know I've never been invited to the
Speaker 4: met Gala. I don't know. Maybe it's because I got
Speaker 4: into the elevator with her.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, so.
Speaker 3: Brand and Brynn said, you know something shady about your bags.
Speaker 3: You never responded to her. We never heard you really
Speaker 3: like talk to her about it, did you? I mean,
Speaker 3: were you not upset or hurt? Was there a moment
Speaker 3: where you're like, faff, who do you think you are?
Speaker 4: Well? I never got the chance to respond to her
Speaker 4: about it because I found out at that breakfast and
Speaker 4: I did confront her about it later again probably not
Speaker 4: going to make the edit. I did confront her about it,
Speaker 4: and I was like, dude, that was low, that was
Speaker 4: not cool. And she was just like, you know, conflict resolution,
Speaker 4: that's what this is all about.
Speaker 2: And I was like, do you feel like she's trying
Speaker 2: to produce you all the time? Because I feel there's
Speaker 2: that scene right at the beginning when we first meet you,
Speaker 2: and I think you come down and like pink jammys
Speaker 2: or something with the pink jammys.
Speaker 4: Everyone's harping on those.
Speaker 2: Well, it was like in the Hampton, we're in pink
Speaker 2: jammys and we're at work right now, but like there
Speaker 2: was something sweat about I mean, Jammy's sweat. But before that,
Speaker 2: you could feel like she was almost coaching you. Yes, us,
Speaker 2: prior to sitting down. Did that happen the duration of filming.
Speaker 4: It pretty much stopped. When did it stop? I would
Speaker 4: say close to the end, it stopped. But I didn't
Speaker 4: ever take that bait. I'm I'm you know, I might
Speaker 4: be boring ladies, but I'm not stupid. I was like,
Speaker 4: why are you telling me to do this? She's like,
Speaker 4: it's conflict resolution, like we fight, we make up and
Speaker 4: I and I just was like, I'm just gonna be me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you don't fight to fight, like, you have
Speaker 3: to have a legitimation, so you have to start, you have
Speaker 3: to care, and it starts to look a little bit
Speaker 3: stage and fake, if you know, Yeah, that's her mentality.
Speaker 2: If is there anyone at this moment that you'd like
Speaker 2: to fight with?
Speaker 4: I'm in fight mode right now just because I feel
Speaker 4: like I played it nice. And then you know, you
Speaker 4: go along and you watch with this say about you
Speaker 4: and confessionals you're like, oh, that's it, or on stage
Speaker 4: in Miami and you're like, oh, that's how they feel. Okay,
Speaker 4: So now now what do you led up?
Speaker 3: What would you do different?
Speaker 4: What would I do different? I guess I would have
Speaker 4: been even I felt like I was very vocal. Again,
Speaker 4: I can't speak to you know, the process. People decide
Speaker 4: what gets shown in what is it? I guess I
Speaker 4: would have been more vocal at times and stated opinions
Speaker 4: more strongly in the moment. I think during confessionals, again,
Speaker 4: I want to support women. I want to see them
Speaker 4: do well. So unless I have real beef with someone,
Speaker 4: I wasn't just going to throw shade just to throw shade,
Speaker 4: and you know, and maybe I should have gotten the
Speaker 4: memo that that's you know, that's part of this.
Speaker 2: Do you think that we're seeing a true version of
Speaker 2: who you are, because like I still feel like as
Speaker 2: I'm watching, I don't know you.
Speaker 4: I think that you get a better sense of me
Speaker 4: from this interview, from my instagram, from my podcast, from
Speaker 4: you know seeing me even you know in other places,
Speaker 4: this is like a one tenth of one percent.
Speaker 3: Yeah, would you want to be full time so they
Speaker 3: can the audience can see more of your family?
Speaker 4: I guess TVD My husband is a little on the
Speaker 4: fence about that, which is why I wasn't a full
Speaker 4: time to begin with. We do have a young kids,
Speaker 4: and so I think he and I have just been weighing, like,
Speaker 4: if you know, if there's a round two, what does
Speaker 4: it look like? And I mean, we shot stuff with
Speaker 4: my daughter that that's not in it. We shot stuff
Speaker 4: this incredible event that Jessela and I did. We shot
Speaker 4: with all these other incredible women in fashion.
Speaker 2: So like how many outfit changes were at that event?
Speaker 4: Just one unfortunately, but I was hoping there was at least.
Speaker 2: Can we get a little bit into and I hate
Speaker 2: to do it, but a little bit into the scientology
Speaker 2: I had.
Speaker 4: This I'm ready, okay.
Speaker 2: So can you clarify being a scientology for us? From
Speaker 2: what my research? And listen, I am not a detective,
Speaker 2: but I am on But from my understanding is if
Speaker 2: your parents are high up in the church, then you
Speaker 2: are kind of born into the church and then you
Speaker 2: go and you're like a cadet or or something like
Speaker 2: that as a child. But in your interview I heard
Speaker 2: you say that it wasn't until later in life that
Speaker 2: you joined.
Speaker 4: Yep, so none of that is true. You decide the
Speaker 4: first one of the most basic and first things that
Speaker 4: you learn about is what's true for you it's true
Speaker 4: for you. No one can shove anything down your throat.
Speaker 4: And having being on the Jewish side, right, you're just
Speaker 4: told belief from day one and you accept it or not.
Speaker 4: And this is like, is this true for you? Does
Speaker 4: it work? Cool? And so growing up in my household,
Speaker 4: we did Shabbat, we did Hanukah, we did all those things.
Speaker 4: And then it was like, if there's an air of
Speaker 4: your life that you're seeking improven in, here's some tools
Speaker 4: and if not, no, And I wasn't interested. And then
Speaker 4: I moved to New York when I was eighteen. I
Speaker 4: was lonely, I was scared. I didn't know what the
Speaker 4: was going on. And I knew, after having been really
Speaker 4: bullied in high school and really just very depressed, that
Speaker 4: I needed something. And I said, let me try this.
Speaker 4: It's something my parents and my brothers have. You know,
Speaker 4: how to spend a lot of time doing. Maybe it
Speaker 4: can help. And it did helped me with my own depression,
Speaker 4: with my own fears and anxieties, and I was like, Okay,
Speaker 4: this works for me. And that was kind of when
Speaker 4: it became my own if that makes.
Speaker 2: Sense, But then why do we hear all of these
Speaker 2: things like and is this all just complete, made up,
Speaker 2: pressed up And granted there's made up things in the
Speaker 2: press about every person situation, but like, why do we
Speaker 2: hear like, Okay, Tom Cruise can never see Surrey again
Speaker 2: because she's not part of scientology? Is that accurate?
Speaker 4: Listen, I don't know him. I can't speak for his
Speaker 4: personal situation. I have never heard of any rule or
Speaker 4: anyone experiencing that at all.
Speaker 3: Do you think scientology it's a bad rap just from
Speaker 3: the documentaries? And then what was Leah what's her name,
Speaker 3: Leah Remini?
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I think that look at it this way,
Speaker 4: We've had five thousand years to get used to Christianity, Judaism, Islam.
Speaker 4: Judaism is still attacked right in a huge way right now,
Speaker 4: as with other religions, more smaller sects of religions sect
Speaker 4: not sex and scientology is like seventy five years old,
Speaker 4: so anything new, I think will be mislabeled as controversial.
Speaker 4: And I think people read media and the headlines instead
Speaker 4: of going to read a book by Aron Hubbard or
Speaker 4: find out for themselves. And I think that the documentary
Speaker 4: was really if you look at it, it was propaganda.
Speaker 4: It was an interviewed no scientologists at all. The church
Speaker 4: offered many times full open doors sent over twenty five
Speaker 4: letters to the director of the film, Hey, we'd like
Speaker 4: to have you interview with scientologists actually or coming to
Speaker 4: the church and see for yourself. I mean it goes
Speaker 4: on and on, and the book that it was based
Speaker 4: on was banned in two countries because of its libel
Speaker 4: as nature. So for me, you know, part of the
Speaker 4: reason why I said what I said, you know on
Speaker 4: the show is like, read a book, go to scientology
Speaker 4: dot org and check it out for yourself, because that's
Speaker 4: where you'll find out about it. And that's been my experience.
Speaker 4: It's helped me with depression, anxiety, marriage, you know, it's
Speaker 4: helped me. Just this industry, the fashion industry is so
Speaker 4: I mean your industry too, right, it's all crazy. So
Speaker 4: if this is my one, I should say two north
Speaker 4: stars for me, like to keep some semblance of sanity
Speaker 4: and grounding. That's what it is for me.
Speaker 3: How much time do you spend at the Scientology Center Center,
Speaker 3: I don't even know what you call it.
Speaker 4: Well, you're only spending time there if you're enrolled in
Speaker 4: a class or doing the counseling that they have so
Speaker 4: it's really up to you. Like some people go and
Speaker 4: they say, good, I want to take a course. It's
Speaker 4: going to take a week. Let me go two hours
Speaker 4: a day. Some of the courses are longer and be
Speaker 4: like cool, I'm going to come every day for a month,
Speaker 4: or I'm going to come on the weekends, or you
Speaker 4: set a schedule, you know, and then it's up to you.
Speaker 2: And I promise this will be our last scientology question.
Speaker 2: So if we were going to dig into one additional scientologist,
Speaker 2: would you rather discuss Wendy Muskavich or Danny Masterson? Because
Speaker 2: I saw you in a picture with Danny.
Speaker 4: I found it.
Speaker 2: Oh, Shelley Muskavich.
Speaker 4: Okay, I'll just touch a both. Okay, This whole where
Speaker 4: Shelley thing is like who the cares? Let this woman
Speaker 4: have a private life, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 4: why is it someone's a troll on Instagram's like, get
Speaker 4: a life. She's where she wants to be. She's decided
Speaker 4: she's private. Where is Jenna's fiance?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 4: Is anyone saying when I was younger, I.
Speaker 3: Knew taking classes at the Scientology Center girlfriend?
Speaker 4: And then just to speak quickly to Danny, I haven't
Speaker 4: seen or spoken to Danny in over ten years. When
Speaker 4: I started out, he was incredibly supportive to me.
Speaker 3: I knew no one.
Speaker 4: He helped make a lot of great, you know, introductions
Speaker 4: to girls and actresses that were excited to wear my product.
Speaker 4: And that's all I can say. I don't have you know,
Speaker 4: I didn't participate in the case. I don't have details.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's your problem. Why do you think so many
Speaker 3: celebrities are in scientology?
Speaker 4: I look at it this way. You tend to only
Speaker 4: hear about something when the famous person is part of it.
Speaker 4: There's double triple the amount of celebrities who are Catholics
Speaker 4: or Jews rights no one associates Oh you know justin
Speaker 4: Bieber Catholic or you know, Christian. I'm not sure which one.
Speaker 4: They're not like putting those two together. But for whatever reason, again,
Speaker 4: because I think it's new, right new or seventy five
Speaker 4: years old, I think people are just like, oh, oh,
Speaker 4: these two things they have to be spoken about at
Speaker 4: all times.
Speaker 2: You do what is going to make you feel your
Speaker 2: best and what's going to provide you support?
Speaker 4: Plus, But don't you think nowadays like anyone can be anything?
Speaker 4: Like why can't we just be talling. Hey, if this
Speaker 4: makes you happy, great, Like you know, people do yoga,
Speaker 4: they climb mountains, they do stunts whatever.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: I don't know what each one of you do to
Speaker 4: feel better, but to me, it's like, give me a break,
Speaker 4: like just leave us alone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think what adds to the questions is
Speaker 2: like whenever you feel like you can't get an answer
Speaker 2: to a question, then people dig further and they create
Speaker 2: their own narratives. You know, like when you had that
Speaker 2: scene with Brinn and you kind of pulled back, I
Speaker 2: was like, well, now now let me get to my work.
Speaker 2: You know, like instead of if you if you would
Speaker 2: have answered the question the same way, you would have
Speaker 2: just answered it to us right now, it would have
Speaker 2: been like, oh makes sense.
Speaker 4: Yeah. But here's the difference, Steady, is you weren't talking
Speaker 4: shit about me and spreading rumors about me, and then
Speaker 4: and then spending no time with me, getting to know
Speaker 4: me or even bothering and then asking me my deepest
Speaker 4: most person question. You know, like, I'm not going to
Speaker 4: give you the answers to that when you haven't when
Speaker 4: all I know about it.
Speaker 3: Well, you know why she's doing that. She just wants
Speaker 3: to get the drama. And before you even start, we
Speaker 3: even saw you on our TV screens, there was a
Speaker 3: lot of talk about scientology, and there's a lot of
Speaker 3: talk like, oh my god, this girl, we need to
Speaker 3: shut her down, and you know something about your parents
Speaker 3: and all this stuff, and so she probably like, let's
Speaker 3: get to it. I'm going to get the drama out
Speaker 3: of her right now, not caring about you as a person,
Speaker 3: just using you to bring, you know, some drama to
Speaker 3: the show.
Speaker 2: Well, I have I have some other hard hitting questions
Speaker 2: that I need to know. This is not scientology related.
Speaker 4: I love this. Barbara Walter has hit me hard.
Speaker 2: Teddy, Listen, do you not drink on the show because
Speaker 2: you don't want to lose control of your of who
Speaker 2: you are as a person? Or do you not drink
Speaker 2: in general?
Speaker 3: Well no, because you were breastfeeding too right at the time,
Speaker 3: So that's kind of drink and do that.
Speaker 4: So I have a list a mile long of when
Speaker 4: I allow myself to drink. Am I away from my
Speaker 4: child and he's knocking a breastfeed? Am I pumping? Do
Speaker 4: I have a photo shoot the next day? Do I
Speaker 4: have to speak about something? Do I have to get
Speaker 4: up early. If I have to check off all those
Speaker 4: or a majority. I just don't drink.
Speaker 3: So that's called discipline, my friend.
Speaker 4: So I probably have a drink once, maybe twice a month.
Speaker 4: I had half of a drink last night. I feel
Speaker 4: like shit today.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I just want to say, were you hammered?
Speaker 4: I was like a little buzz and headache and I
Speaker 4: was like, see, this is why I don't do this shit.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's not it's hardly worth it anymore.
Speaker 4: But for Britain to just harp on that point, and
Speaker 4: like what is she like the alcohol police? Like she
Speaker 4: gets to tell me when I get to drink or not,
Speaker 4: like give.
Speaker 2: Me a break, right, But isn't that also a lot
Speaker 2: of girls on New York that don't drink, like Uba
Speaker 2: doesn't drink.
Speaker 4: Correct, Uba doesn't drink period. And Jenna, I think, is
Speaker 4: like me and it's an occasional like, well do it,
Speaker 4: but I don't. I don't know her reasons why. I
Speaker 4: just know that I have to go to through my checklist.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we just had your fellow nubie Raquel on the
Speaker 3: podcast did you two bond over being the new members
Speaker 3: of Ronnie?
Speaker 4: We did? We did a lot. There was a lot
Speaker 4: of like, are you okay? Are you okay? What's going on?
Speaker 4: Are you survive? And how's it going for you? Did
Speaker 4: you get hazed yet at it? You know? So it
Speaker 4: was it was nice I think for both of us
Speaker 4: that there were two new people and not just one
Speaker 4: because the other girls they you know, they had the
Speaker 4: lay of the land.
Speaker 2: Yeah, who do you feel like other than Jenna and
Speaker 2: Raquel that you probably bonded with the most on the show?
Speaker 4: I would say Uba, I think, yeah, I think that
Speaker 4: she is an incredible human and very kind and she's
Speaker 4: very wise and I appreciate so in my in my
Speaker 4: moments of like what's happening, you know, she would she
Speaker 4: would just talk me off my ledge.
Speaker 2: And who do you think is the biggest shit talker
Speaker 2: or leaky pigeon?
Speaker 3: Oh, I think we know that.
Speaker 4: Well, it's it's really up for debate right.
Speaker 2: Now, That's what I was going to say. I think
Speaker 2: it might be up for debate.
Speaker 4: I think I think there might be two in the mix.
Speaker 3: And you know, you know, Bren is one Bren, But again.
Speaker 4: I think you know Aaron Aaron, I wouldn't say is
Speaker 4: a rumor starter, but like if she's going to be
Speaker 4: tasked with a secret and a plan. Those those lips
Speaker 4: were leaky.
Speaker 3: Are you guys going on a big trip this year?
Speaker 4: We went already? Were we went?
Speaker 2: Yeah? But like, are we going to say we're going
Speaker 2: to see the big trip?
Speaker 4: Oh? You're going to see the big trip? Jas has
Speaker 4: already spilled the beans. It ended early. Two people were
Speaker 4: escorted home.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm like, you already on the show and I
Speaker 3: didn't see it. How can I not remember that?
Speaker 2: So it has I'm a ninety percent sure. I mean
Speaker 2: that it's Uba and Bren, but I you know, I'm
Speaker 2: not always I can't always use my.
Speaker 3: Was it a big secret? We're not allowed to know who?
Speaker 2: Actually, I don't know if it's a secret. We kind
Speaker 2: of saw it in the in the mid Sea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but out there's no more pranks, there's no more trickery.
Speaker 4: So everythank you.
Speaker 3: Now, if you could host a cast trip, is there
Speaker 3: someplace you'd like to take the woman?
Speaker 4: I'd love to go to Cancoon. I was just at
Speaker 4: at an Albert's resort there.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 3: They just opened one in Las A, Leva's a little
Speaker 3: wine town. It's so nice.
Speaker 4: I was there Maddie Savern. Oh you were Yeah, that
Speaker 4: was there last year. It's so great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is my one of my really good friends.
Speaker 3: Her friend owns it.
Speaker 4: Oh, it's phenomenal.
Speaker 2: Can we talk about the hot mic moment on Jeff Lewis?
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, were you mad?
Speaker 4: Here's what I felt. I literally had just left breakfast
Speaker 4: with Cy and we had a great so we knew
Speaker 4: each other when she was like, mommy blogging in Brooklyn
Speaker 4: and just starting out, and I lived in Brooklyn, and
Speaker 4: so I left lunch like gosh, I'm so glad, like
Speaker 4: we're reconnecting and I'm getting to know her again. And
Speaker 4: then I get a text from Aaron and it's like
Speaker 4: have you seen this? And I press it.
Speaker 2: Of course Aaron had to let you know, like you
Speaker 2: don't have the World Wide Web and could find out
Speaker 2: on any Bravo blogs. Minutes later, Oh my god.
Speaker 4: And I was like I just wanted to throw up.
Speaker 4: To be honest, I just felt like, wow, I'm a
Speaker 4: naive idiot, Like how did I just get tricked? So
Speaker 4: that was my first reaction. I then sent it to
Speaker 4: her with no questions, and she wrote back she said,
Speaker 4: what I said you were nice. Listen again, and I said, no,
Speaker 4: you said I'm boring and she said, I said, which
Speaker 4: is fine, but like shitty okay, And then she apologized
Speaker 4: and I was like, okay, I'm a big girl. She apologized,
Speaker 4: but I think where it got weird is in her confessional.
Speaker 4: She then he doubled down on the boring and I
Speaker 4: was like, oh, so you live to me again.
Speaker 3: So well, here's the thing. It was a hot Mike moment.
Speaker 3: It wasn't like she was ants like being funny.
Speaker 2: Anybody that does know anybody that does Jeff Lewis, They say,
Speaker 2: do not talk during any of the breaks you're constantly on.
Speaker 2: Well he doesn't.
Speaker 3: It doesn't mean he has to use those clips. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the entire things you have, you never to go look
Speaker 3: for it. You have to go to the serious app
Speaker 3: and look for it. Now these are used as clips
Speaker 3: on his Instagram account, and he used that clip just
Speaker 3: double shady.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean it got him a lot of clicks
Speaker 4: and views, didn't it. And the fortunate thing apparently being
Speaker 4: nice is boring and.
Speaker 3: Well, at this point, Jeff Lewis should just be a
Speaker 3: housewife because he's literally like pessing so many people off
Speaker 3: with his radio show that he's on every housewife show nowadays.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, oh Jeff, okay, I take it back.
Speaker 3: Jeff didn't use it as a clip. Bravo page. A
Speaker 3: Bravo fan page screen grabbed it, put it on Serious
Speaker 3: Appa posted it. But yeah, but.
Speaker 2: When she's wrong, she says she's wrong.
Speaker 3: I am white. Cast members surprised you the most of
Speaker 3: the season, either in a positive way or being more
Speaker 3: difficult than you expected.
Speaker 1: Or.
Speaker 4: I guess I think Brind because I went in with
Speaker 4: kind of like, oh, she's so fun and bubbly and
Speaker 4: you know we're gonna we're gonna get to know each
Speaker 4: other and have like she's the fun one, and then
Speaker 4: I was like, oh no, this is the one that
Speaker 4: I have to watch out for.
Speaker 3: What we saw different, Brind, This son so far than
Speaker 3: we did last year.
Speaker 2: And you loved her last season.
Speaker 3: No, Si, Si is a little different too. Cy was
Speaker 3: a very she was.
Speaker 4: Self exploration self.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: You know, you know there's people that go women that
Speaker 3: go on the show and they see themselves from the
Speaker 3: outside and they're like, oh shit, like I gotta fix that,
Speaker 3: and there's others that just don't.
Speaker 2: Get then they're like, all right, now I'm gonna double
Speaker 2: down bad behavior, ycause there's anything other than the prank
Speaker 2: that you would have changed about this season and things
Speaker 2: that you've done or didn't do, what would it be.
Speaker 4: I noticed that holding your energy for that long was
Speaker 4: hard for me. I can do it for seven minutes.
Speaker 4: I can be extra and I was just being myself
Speaker 4: and it comes across as really low energy sometimes and
Speaker 4: I wasn't. But I was like, I was like, gosh,
Speaker 4: they're all being so it's almost like a city.
Speaker 3: You were inside your head, you were thinking all these things,
Speaker 3: but you weren't.
Speaker 2: You almost seemed like aloof like you didn't want to
Speaker 2: be there.
Speaker 4: Well, I think in a lot of the moments that
Speaker 4: you're seeing, I'm either saying something ridiculous coming out of
Speaker 4: my mouth like I sneezed and my Diva cup came out,
Speaker 4: or you're seeing, you know, people trying like I clearly
Speaker 4: knew Britn was trying to stir the pot with her
Speaker 4: terrible game.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 4: Going to be comfortable in that moment because I'm like,
Speaker 4: I know what you're doing, and now you're picking a
Speaker 4: subject that's deeply personal to me. Like you want to
Speaker 4: stir the pot and ask me about my marriage, my kids,
Speaker 4: my business. I signed up for that shit, but not
Speaker 4: not something like this. So I think I think I
Speaker 4: got uncomfortable sometimes and I and yeah, and you.
Speaker 2: Get your head up, so did I. And but you
Speaker 2: live and you learn. Can you tell us if we
Speaker 2: need to be well? Tam doesn't need it anymore. But
Speaker 2: do I need to be using the Diva cup?
Speaker 4: Well, okay, this is I don't want Diva cup to
Speaker 4: come after me. Maybe it's just because I've had so
Speaker 4: many kids, but I will say that I was using
Speaker 4: it and I sneezed. It shot right out of me
Speaker 4: and it wasn't pretty, As I said, it was a murders.
Speaker 3: I don't even know what a Diva cup is.
Speaker 2: That you're too old Diva cup, Tam.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you just put it.
Speaker 4: Up there, it collects it and then you pull it
Speaker 4: out and it's reusable and sustainable and it's a great idea.
Speaker 2: But what do you put it in the dishwash?
Speaker 5: Really?
Speaker 2: How do you clean it?
Speaker 4: And the sink was themself and water. But maybe if
Speaker 4: you've had four children, it doesn't work for people like us.
Speaker 4: I don't know. Maybe I have four kids, little rhinoplastyar
Speaker 4: whatever they need to do down.
Speaker 2: There, I sneeze and ip. The other day I went
Speaker 2: to a trampoline park.
Speaker 4: And OVA candidate okay.
Speaker 3: And then I need a smaller garage for that thing.
Speaker 2: Can you please not call my lady part a garage?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 4: What about a docking station there?
Speaker 3: Just it just needs to be smaller, not our v size.
Speaker 3: It needs to be like a little Volkswagen bug size, a.
Speaker 2: Little a Mini Cooper an That's what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 2: But a little convertible Mini Cooper would be fine. Just
Speaker 2: park it right in there. Is there anything that you
Speaker 2: want to share before we kind of close out.
Speaker 4: We're done already.
Speaker 2: I can keep unless you want to share the juicy
Speaker 2: freaking tea with us.
Speaker 3: We bring it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what I want to ask, is Jessel's
Speaker 2: husband playing it up for the cameras or do you
Speaker 2: think he's just a douche lord?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 2: Eddy, Well, what I liked him last season and then
Speaker 2: he got a little taste of being a funny guy
Speaker 2: and now it's non stop funny guy and I'm like enough, and.
Speaker 3: Now he's a clown. Told pan Fish, She told.
Speaker 4: Him, Okay, your stick is up. You need to get
Speaker 4: something new, So the warning has been put out by
Speaker 4: the wife.
Speaker 3: Do you think that they're going to have that girl
Speaker 3: that she wants?
Speaker 4: I don't think right now with some things she shared
Speaker 4: with me last night, which I will not say, but
Speaker 4: I think I think she still wants it, but maybe
Speaker 4: not in the next six months.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, all.
Speaker 3: Right, and OK what other question, let's see.
Speaker 2: Do you hang out with Jenna's fiance off camera?
Speaker 4: Yes, but not as often as I would like. So
Speaker 4: I actually know Cass probably better than I know Jenna.
Speaker 4: She shot me from my perfume campaign. She and I
Speaker 4: have a mutual bestie and I love that woman. She's
Speaker 4: one of the radest humans I've ever met.
Speaker 2: Who's the mutual bestie? Is it Jen?
Speaker 4: No, it's a woman named Tali who if Brinn had
Speaker 4: been able to share the rumor more, she was pinning
Speaker 4: all of it on my best friend. She was like,
Speaker 4: she was gonna say, Rebecca's best friend is the one
Speaker 4: that told me all the stuff.
Speaker 2: Do you think that it's fair that she didn't have
Speaker 2: to share that part of herself on camera?
Speaker 4: You know, I think there's been a lot of conversation
Speaker 4: between all of us about what we're willing to share
Speaker 4: and not share. And I think the consensus, especially after
Speaker 4: last night, is if you're going to be on the show,
Speaker 4: then like you got you have to do it, you know.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm willing to share my family. My husband
Speaker 4: does not want to share our kids, and that's like
Speaker 4: I have to respect that. He's fine to go on,
Speaker 4: but I think we have to all share, like you
Speaker 4: have to like you have to be ron open.
Speaker 3: You know what industry is your husband in?
Speaker 4: He's a director.
Speaker 3: Oh so he's like, hell no, I want my kids
Speaker 3: on that show. A lot of men don't, no, and
Speaker 3: especially come on with me.
Speaker 4: And then he had like he sliced his achilles and
Speaker 4: he's like, I'm not going to make my TV debut
Speaker 4: like in a wheelchair, Like that's not how I'm going
Speaker 4: to show up as your husband. So I'm going to pass.
Speaker 3: How old are your kids?
Speaker 4: Thirteen, ten, seven and two?
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, do you want any more?
Speaker 4: I would love one more, but my husband said, we
Speaker 4: lose our son in five years, and do you want
Speaker 4: to spend the next five years being distracted by another
Speaker 4: baby or soak it up with him? And I was
Speaker 4: like I won't do it.
Speaker 2: I mean that's a good point. Yeah, yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: that is a good point. Oh, how do you feel
Speaker 2: about if some of the ogs came back to New York.
Speaker 3: Oh, that's a good one.
Speaker 4: I think that maybe there should be a girls trip
Speaker 4: with us and the ogs, you know how it works. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think showing up to a dinner's random. I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think there should be some group bonding and then
Speaker 4: see where this energies click and then leeting ads needed,
Speaker 4: don't you What do.
Speaker 3: You think about what Bethany said? She said basically said
Speaker 3: do you know her?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I know her. I asked her if I should do it,
Speaker 4: and she said, don't show up to the body when
Speaker 4: it's already Ovah, she said that to you. Yeah, I said,
Speaker 4: I'm thinking about going on the show. What do you think?
Speaker 4: Because I had been a guest on her podcast a
Speaker 4: couple of years ago, so that was her opinion. But
Speaker 4: you know what, Listen, everyone's upset because we're not like
Speaker 4: the OG's. I think that's a different time. It's a
Speaker 4: different show. No one in social media, no one like
Speaker 4: she said on her video that they just acted crazy
Speaker 4: and had nothing to lose, and they were just a
Speaker 4: bunch of you know, women, and I think I think
Speaker 4: from what I'm hoping, the creators wanted to change the
Speaker 4: dynamic of the show a little bit and not try
Speaker 4: and do that.
Speaker 3: And so I yeah, I mean for the people that
Speaker 3: keep saying like, bring the OG's back, hardly any of
Speaker 3: them live in New York anymore, right, so it's just
Speaker 3: not going to happen. And they did give them the
Speaker 3: ultimate girls trip. Can be the ultimate girls trip and
Speaker 3: you can take all put both of them. Yeah, oh
Speaker 3: my god, you guys would be fighting.
Speaker 4: Like share a room with Derinda, It'll be great.
Speaker 2: Did you guys see the headline that who was it Kelly?
Speaker 2: Was it Kelly? Ben Simone was on like a dating
Speaker 2: app on Riah and she was it was gonna daze
Speaker 2: Bethany's boyfriend?
Speaker 3: Was it Bethany's current boyfriend?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 4: Yes, I think she she would. She told the story
Speaker 4: last night because she was there. She was dming with
Speaker 4: him and then she ran into him outside of a
Speaker 4: bar in the Hamptons and then realized that that's Bethany Frankels.
Speaker 4: I guess her boyfriend pre name right for that to
Speaker 4: be the case, I'm not on Riah. So I don't know,
Speaker 4: but you can apparently not.
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess we'll find out. We are actually
Speaker 2: about how.
Speaker 3: Kelly stupid is he?
Speaker 4: That's well stupid, but maybe yeah he has a thing
Speaker 4: for housewives, like maybe clearly.
Speaker 2: But also I've just learned this. You can't do screen
Speaker 2: grabs from Rya or you get kicked out.
Speaker 3: Well was another phone?
Speaker 2: Then you use another phone, So it's.
Speaker 3: Not really that hard to figure out.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, Well, we appreciate you coming on. Next time
Speaker 2: that you come to LA, you've got to come in
Speaker 2: and we'll do it in person. Fun and we love
Speaker 2: some bags. They are my style.
Speaker 3: She has no shame in her game with.
Speaker 4: You that you you will not just throw me under
Speaker 4: a bus.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: No, if you gifted to me, I'm going to leave
Speaker 2: it outside of Marshalls and then be like look what
Speaker 2: I found.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Marshalls, Teddy, come on, go up a level.
Speaker 2: That was the point I was really trying to be
Speaker 2: at it. Are you kidding? I love?
Speaker 3: I have several of your bags.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're incredibly impressive and it's a you know,
Speaker 2: it's insane the business that you've built, and uh, people
Speaker 2: like to you know sometimes give a little a little
Speaker 2: shit when there may be.
Speaker 3: A little jealousy.
Speaker 4: Well that's to be them.
Speaker 2: Thanks for coming on. Where do people find you on Instagram, socials,
Speaker 2: et cetera.
