Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod. It's Teddy Mellencamp and Camridge Edge.
Speaker 1: Hey guys, welcome to another episode of Two Teas in
Speaker 1: a Pod with myself and Trishelle. And today we're going
Speaker 1: to be going over Southern Charms Season ten, episode fourteen.
Speaker 1: But first let's check in what's going on?
Speaker 2: Trishall, nothing much.
Speaker 3: I just got back from Whistler, Canada. We went to
Speaker 3: go snowboarding and I got back like two days ago, so.
Speaker 1: It was fun. But sound a little sick?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been getting I think I've been sick for
Speaker 2: like five weeks now and I've been fighting it. So
Speaker 2: I'm feeling a little bit. What about you. You're in
Speaker 2: Big Bear, right, Yes?
Speaker 1: I am in Big Bear. We thank god we drove
Speaker 1: up yesterday before the actual huge storm hit. We are
Speaker 1: like in I don't know how many feet of snow,
Speaker 1: but it's all the way up to our windows. When
Speaker 1: we got here, took Eddie two hours to plow the
Speaker 1: driveway and wild just to get the truck up because
Speaker 1: we kind of have a long like a a slope
Speaker 1: to drive you know, driveway. So he got up the
Speaker 1: here and we haven't been here for a month because
Speaker 1: of filming maybe even six weeks. So there's no food
Speaker 1: in the house, just stuff that's in the pantry. We
Speaker 1: had some eggs in there and we got up and
Speaker 1: he was so tired from plowing that he sat down.
Speaker 1: By the time we got back up, it was all
Speaker 1: covered in snow. But thank you Peppercorn over here in
Speaker 1: big Beer down at the village, which their food is amazing,
Speaker 1: and so we ate and then the snow stopped on
Speaker 1: the way home, so it was a little bit easier
Speaker 1: to see, but it's still snowing like our It's gorgeous.
Speaker 1: Though it's gorgeous. But Eddie's the dog won't even go
Speaker 1: outside to go the bathroom. So it's like he like
Speaker 1: goes out and the snow so deep it covers his
Speaker 1: whole body. Yeah. Just I'm here relaxing. Oh girl, I'm
Speaker 1: telling you.
Speaker 3: When you were in New Orleans, everyone's like, are you
Speaker 3: gonna see Tamra? But I was in Whistler and then
Speaker 3: people are texting me, oh my god, check Tambra stories.
Speaker 1: I'm like, please don't, just don't, oh though it'll be interesting. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I got to see Teddy a couple of days ago, and.
Speaker 3: Well, I listened to you Guys podcast yesterday and I
Speaker 3: was falling.
Speaker 1: I did too. I don't normally listen to our podcast
Speaker 1: ever because I hate my voice, but I listened to
Speaker 1: it and I was crying as well. And when you're
Speaker 1: in it, you don't really you know, you're just going
Speaker 1: through the motions when you're doing the podcast. But then
Speaker 1: going back and listening to it, I was like, oh my.
Speaker 3: God, this is But it was a mixture of that
Speaker 3: and I was cracking up laughing towards the end too.
Speaker 3: A couple things as she said that were just so
Speaker 3: freaking funny. And so, yeah, it was definitely a good one.
Speaker 3: I hope everybody listens to it.
Speaker 1: Yes, if you haven't listened, go listen to it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Very very strong and very uplifting and gave me some shit,
Speaker 1: that's for sure. She just really gave her story. But
Speaker 1: so we're going to get into Southern charm now. This
Speaker 1: was a filler episode in my opinion. Yeah, total filler.
Speaker 1: So Paige left over at Craig's last night. They have
Speaker 1: breakfast at one thirty pm while Craig recaps the Buhama
Speaker 1: trip for her. Craig feels like he and Austin had
Speaker 1: a breakthrough after Craig used the word addict. Craig wasn't
Speaker 1: necessarily drinking every day, but he turned into a different
Speaker 1: person when he's drunk. Do you think that that is that?
Speaker 1: What is an addict? Like you turn into a different
Speaker 1: person when you drink.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not sure exactly because like I've never had
Speaker 2: that big of a problem.
Speaker 3: I've had like situational drinkings, like if I've been drinking
Speaker 3: too much for it because of a breakup or I'm
Speaker 3: stressed or whatever. But a lot of people whenever we
Speaker 3: did the recap last week commented under the video and
Speaker 3: they were kind of like offended that he was using
Speaker 3: the word addict and also having a bottle of champagne
Speaker 3: and clearly kind of drunk in the Mahamas.
Speaker 1: That's what I was wondering, because I just saw a
Speaker 1: picture of him posted and he was drinking whiskey or
Speaker 1: something like that, and I'm like, I mean, alcohol is
Speaker 1: it is not good for me? I know that for
Speaker 1: a fact, Like I'm not good on alcohol, and the
Speaker 1: older I get, the harder it is for my body
Speaker 1: to just even metabolize it. And it's just really hard.
Speaker 1: So I was like, Okay, lin't.
Speaker 2: Like a mixed message.
Speaker 1: Maybe I think so too. Craig knew he had a
Speaker 1: problem when he could see the disappointment on Page's face.
Speaker 1: He knew he needed to make a change, and he
Speaker 1: almost lost Page. The way Page looks at Craig is
Speaker 1: very interesting in what way. I just it's just like
Speaker 1: she's just doesn't seem that into him at all.
Speaker 2: So I have a hot take on this.
Speaker 1: I want to hear it for me.
Speaker 3: That opening scene looked kind of lovely. It's like he
Speaker 3: has the beautiful backyard in the house and he's they're
Speaker 3: waking up in this pretty place and he's making her
Speaker 3: breakfast and that looks great. She seemed a little bit disinterested,
Speaker 3: and I feel like both of them are with each other, like, Okay,
Speaker 3: he's very Southern, she's New York.
Speaker 2: He goes to New York.
Speaker 3: To visit her, and it's like a vacation for him
Speaker 3: because he likes the city, but he doesn't want to
Speaker 3: live there full time. She wants to decompress. She goes
Speaker 3: down to Charleston and she does that, but they in
Speaker 3: their everyday life, want the opposite type of life.
Speaker 1: She's a city girl, He's he wants a farm. He
Speaker 1: wants bees, he wants cows, he wants chickens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not her.
Speaker 1: She wants to tour. She wants to you know, she
Speaker 1: likes New York City lifestyle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like when she goes to Charleston, that's like
Speaker 3: probably her time that she just gets to like relax.
Speaker 2: But that's a vacation that's not like your everyday life.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I agree. So then over at Austin's house,
Speaker 1: he's restocking his mini fridge filled with beer and seltzer.
Speaker 1: His sister Katie comes over for a visit and brings
Speaker 1: a bottle of warm rose. Austin feels like he and
Speaker 1: Craig are finally best friends again. Both Katie and Page
Speaker 1: tell each other that addiction comes in many forms, which
Speaker 1: Austin may not have realized. I'm sure I could see that.
Speaker 1: I don't know a lot about addiction. That's why I'm
Speaker 1: not trying to knock anything he's saying at all. I
Speaker 1: just don't know. I didn't know, Like, can you say
Speaker 1: you're an addict, but you don't drink every day? Like
Speaker 1: I don't know where the line is drawn.
Speaker 2: I feel the same.
Speaker 3: It's like I don't feel I don't feel comfortable like
Speaker 3: saying either way because I know nothing about it. But
Speaker 3: I did find it disgusting that Katie brought over warm
Speaker 3: rose with a twist off top. I was like, girl,
Speaker 3: I'm not a rose drinker, are you No? I it
Speaker 3: makes me sick. It's sweet, right, really bad headache the
Speaker 3: next day?
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I don't like. I don't do sweet.
Speaker 2: It's sweet. It's not good.
Speaker 3: But I thought it was a really funny editing and
Speaker 3: very shady editing. Whenever they go from Craig talking about
Speaker 3: being an addict to Austin cracking his afternoon beer.
Speaker 1: I know, and I didn't know that was his sister.
Speaker 1: I had to like rewind it. I'm like, who's this girl?
Speaker 1: Is this his girlfriend?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: No, she pops in and out. He has really cute family. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I didn't know that.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, she.
Speaker 3: Should be on the cast. I think she seems a
Speaker 3: little normal for a.
Speaker 1: Normal Yeah, those people on reality TV are not normal.
Speaker 1: So over at Madison's task, Brett and Hudson are having
Speaker 1: a water gun fight while Madison and her mom Tara
Speaker 1: drink rose. They left their rose over there in the South,
Speaker 1: they do Madison has good news. Brett test came back
Speaker 1: and there's no cancer. Now the next step is for
Speaker 1: them to start having a baby. Madison told Bret they're
Speaker 1: going to keep having babies until she has a girl.
Speaker 1: In congratulations because she is now pregnant. Yes, congratulations, expecting
Speaker 1: a girl.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I just love her life. I think it's so sweet.
Speaker 3: She has changed a lot from whenever we first see her.
Speaker 3: And she's dating Austin and like you know, sleeping at
Speaker 3: his frat house.
Speaker 2: And I love her house. I think it's so pretty.
Speaker 3: It reminds me of my husband and i's first house
Speaker 3: in New Orleans that has a really pretty new Oran style.
Speaker 3: I think it's just such a wholesome scene when you
Speaker 3: see Brett having a water gun fight outside this gorgeous
Speaker 3: neighborhood with his stepside.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, he's so I mean, he's like the
Speaker 1: perfect husband too.
Speaker 2: He's very beautiful Fanily.
Speaker 1: Not too into the reality TV. He's a firefighter, he
Speaker 1: loves her, he's into her son, like you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. He's just like the perfect husband for her
Speaker 1: for sure. And I do think when you're talking about houses,
Speaker 1: I mean it's out of the cast. I'm not talking
Speaker 1: about Miss Patricia's house, but I'm out of the cast,
Speaker 1: the best house by far on that cast.
Speaker 2: And I like her little cocktail library thing that.
Speaker 3: Her and her mom were having, like a glass of
Speaker 3: wine and it was really cute.
Speaker 1: Vanita calls JT whether why she's walking her dog. She
Speaker 1: got invited to Madison and Ryan Summer sirey, and she
Speaker 1: wants JT to come as her plus one, even though
Speaker 1: they'll be inviting JT as well. JT's hesitant to do
Speaker 1: anything with that friend group now, so he tells Vanita
Speaker 1: he'll think about it. This whole relationship between JT and
Speaker 1: Vanita is very, very confusing to me. I feel like
Speaker 1: he's friend zoned her so many times. But she keeps going.
Speaker 1: She's getting to the point where it's like shep with Sienna,
Speaker 1: like she's trying, trying, She's a little the little engine
Speaker 1: that tried her. What is it called the little.
Speaker 2: The little engine that could?
Speaker 1: A little engine that could.
Speaker 3: I had to google Vanita's age because I was just like,
Speaker 3: why is she acting like this? But she's only thirty one,
Speaker 3: and I know that people. To me, that's really young.
Speaker 3: I remember when I was thirty one, I still had
Speaker 3: like delusions about guys. I was delusional, And so I
Speaker 3: think that she's a little delulu with him. And he
Speaker 3: has a new relationship, she probably thinks that, oh it's
Speaker 3: not gonna last.
Speaker 1: But don't you feel like he's kind of leading her
Speaker 1: on a little bit?
Speaker 3: Yeah, But also I think he's trying to fit in
Speaker 3: the group and that's his in and so it's sort
Speaker 3: of like she Benita knows that if she doesn't invite
Speaker 3: JT to the soiree, he's probably not gonna go by
Speaker 3: himself even if he is invited. So she's trying to
Speaker 3: like fit him in, and he's trying to fit in
Speaker 3: as well with her.
Speaker 1: Well, he's saying he has a girlfriend, and Vinina can
Speaker 1: do so much better in my opinion, like just let
Speaker 1: it go. I mean, is there not that many guys
Speaker 1: in Charleston.
Speaker 3: There must not be. I don't understand this. I mean
Speaker 3: I didn't.
Speaker 2: Didn't Madison's husband come from somewhere else? I think he did.
Speaker 2: I think he can go.
Speaker 1: She needs to start looking elsewhere. Yeah, she elsewhere.
Speaker 3: She's to get on Rye, I like Sianna and find
Speaker 3: somebody on Rye to.
Speaker 2: Move to Charleston.
Speaker 1: Taylor and Molly meet for ice cream before going on
Speaker 1: a walk with their dogs. Taylor feels like she was
Speaker 1: able to mend her relationship with these women in the Bahamas,
Speaker 1: which makes her really happy. Mollie talks about her feelings
Speaker 1: for Shep. She's not in love with him, but people
Speaker 1: keep trying to force her to make a move on him.
Speaker 1: It feels a little middle school, which I agree. She
Speaker 1: cried that day in the Bahamas when Austin tried to
Speaker 1: make her kiss Shep. I don't remember that.
Speaker 3: I think they were just like joking around and oh yeah,
Speaker 3: she said something about the tongue was like sandpaper.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, yeah. Everyone is making her feel stupid
Speaker 1: by trying to force this too much. But she's also
Speaker 1: making comments, like she makes comments about Shep, like here,
Speaker 1: I am SHEP coming.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think well, her comments are mostly in her interviews,
Speaker 3: but I feel like she gets embarrassed whenever it's around
Speaker 3: other people, and it's almost like they're saying that, oh,
Speaker 3: poor Mollie, she needs someone, and it probably makes her
Speaker 3: feel a little bit more insecure.
Speaker 2: We already know that she's insecure because she said it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But even in Taylor's confessional, she feels like Molly
Speaker 1: and Shep do have a lot in common. Do you
Speaker 1: think Mollie would should entertain actually dating Shep at this point?
Speaker 2: No, I have always been a no on that.
Speaker 1: I mean, are you like a no on Shep period? No? No,
Speaker 1: I'm a no for Mollie.
Speaker 3: I just think that Molly's in a place where she
Speaker 3: wants more of a serious thing.
Speaker 2: I think SHEF just needs to go. He's comfortable with younger, younger.
Speaker 1: And Molly even says I'm a decade too old for Shep.
Speaker 2: Probably yes.
Speaker 3: And also Shep has so much baggage in Charleston, with
Speaker 3: all the girls that he's hooked up with over there
Speaker 3: and all the little ties that he has.
Speaker 2: Molly doesn't want to deal with that.
Speaker 3: I don't want to deal with all these girls texting
Speaker 3: and calling and having to worry about this.
Speaker 2: I want someone who's like a little bit more clean.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sarting to think. Are people secretly hating
Speaker 1: Mollie to try to push her on Shep.
Speaker 2: Probably they all like to see a train wreck.
Speaker 3: They are messy on that show, especially the guys, so
Speaker 3: Austin and them doing that, it's so they want to
Speaker 3: see it blow up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so over at Shp's house, he looks like he
Speaker 1: hasn't shaved or showered in a hot minute. He just
Speaker 1: got back from a trip from Cuba, which is like
Speaker 1: he was just in the Bahamas. So we went from
Speaker 1: the Bahamas to Cuba. They probably had a few days off.
Speaker 1: He went over there to go fishing. Fishing, he mets
Speaker 1: he usually gets what he wants and he's a spoiled bride.
Speaker 1: So the situation with Sienna really really hurt him. But
Speaker 1: he's finally ready for a serious relationship. Okay, Shep, you
Speaker 1: just got your ass. I don't even know if it's
Speaker 1: called dumped, because I don't think there ever was a
Speaker 1: damn relationship between the two of you. I think you
Speaker 1: were delusional in the sense that oh, this girl wants me,
Speaker 1: and no, it wasn't like that. So how can you
Speaker 1: be finally ready for a serious relationship. I'm not buying that.
Speaker 2: I don't buy it either.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I think that he did say one
Speaker 3: smart thing that he's a spoiled brat, so I guess
Speaker 3: that's like the first step to getting better is to
Speaker 3: admitting that there's an issue. So maybe maybe he's starting
Speaker 3: to change, But I don't think that this quickly.
Speaker 1: Do you think that maybe it's beneficial to him now
Speaker 1: that he's got in his heart broken and he's been
Speaker 1: on the other side of it. Do you think that
Speaker 1: it's possible that shef is going to learn from this.
Speaker 3: I think it's possible, but I don't think it's likely
Speaker 3: this quickly. I feel like he still has like another
Speaker 3: ten years to kind of play the field.
Speaker 1: And jailbe fifty five years old.
Speaker 3: These guys look I whenever I looked up Benita's age,
Speaker 3: She's only thirty one. JT's forty. I mean JT acts
Speaker 3: like he is twenty five. These guys are peter Pan,
Speaker 3: all of them. I don't know what they're drinking in
Speaker 3: Charleston in the water. It's crazy.
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, is this show doing this to them?
Speaker 1: Is being on this show because most of been on
Speaker 1: the show for a long time, right, Yeah?
Speaker 3: I feel like maybe it emotionally stunts them. But what's
Speaker 3: JT's excuse? He's kind of new. I think it might
Speaker 3: be just Charleston.
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know. I've never been there. I want
Speaker 1: to go there.
Speaker 3: I want to go there now, just to like see
Speaker 3: it all go down. I'm actually friends with Cameron who
Speaker 3: was on the earlier Sea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I just want to be breast on Madison
Speaker 1: because I just love her so much.
Speaker 2: She's so cool. I love her too.
Speaker 1: So Sally's going with her mom to get her boob implants,
Speaker 1: let's say, breast getting her breast implants taken out. She
Speaker 1: got them when she was with her ex fiance and
Speaker 1: she feels like they don't fit her anymore. I mean, girls,
Speaker 1: if your guy is asking you to get breast implants
Speaker 1: or any kind of plastic surgery, don't do it. Do
Speaker 1: not do it.
Speaker 3: You know, you do not know a lot of people
Speaker 3: that this has happened to, because I yes, I do too,
Speaker 3: And it's never a good idea, Like you know, you
Speaker 3: have a good guy, like I had mine removed, put in,
Speaker 3: remove whatever.
Speaker 1: And when I told Eddie when I was with him
Speaker 1: and I said I'm going to get him removed, He's like,
Speaker 1: do you what's best for you? Like I don't. It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. But to have breast and plants
Speaker 1: or nos jaw, whatever you're having done, you do it
Speaker 1: for yourself. There's nothing rock doing any of that if
Speaker 1: it helps your self esteem, makes you feel better, do it,
Speaker 1: but never do it because you're going to be in
Speaker 1: the same situation that Sally is now. Now she's got
Speaker 1: to go back and have another surgery to remove them.
Speaker 1: I was confused with her doctor where he said he
Speaker 1: was just going to remove them use the same in
Speaker 1: the city round. Yeah, and I don't know. I mean
Speaker 1: I would recommend a lift at that point because they
Speaker 1: stretch out your skin so much. I'm wondering, like how
Speaker 1: much breast tissue did she? I wanted more information, Like
Speaker 1: the doctor's like, you know, I guess maybe because I've
Speaker 1: gone through it so many times. Yeah, They're all like
Speaker 1: same incision. Yeah, Okay, that's all the questions happened. I'm like, wait,
Speaker 1: am I gonna sag? Do I need a lift? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll see that process like later on or maybe
Speaker 3: she'll talk about at the reunion. But I'm curious about
Speaker 3: that as well. But Tamra, I have several several friends
Speaker 3: that had their boobs done because of a man. Then
Speaker 3: the boobs kind of remind them of that failed because
Speaker 3: it failed relationship, and then they want them out because
Speaker 3: they made them sick, or they're remind them of the
Speaker 3: ex or whatever. And I know that people are probably
Speaker 3: looking at Sally and being like, she looks perfect, but
Speaker 3: that's her decision. I don't think they're too much. I
Speaker 3: think they're beautiful.
Speaker 1: I think they look even the doctor said, your breast
Speaker 1: look great, which they really really do. I don't feel
Speaker 1: like they're they're overly big for her body. And by
Speaker 1: the way, girls, big giant boobs and big lips and
Speaker 1: all that that's out. That's out, all that filler, the
Speaker 1: pumped up cheeks and the big old hot dog lips
Speaker 1: like it's gone.
Speaker 2: People are getting them dissolved.
Speaker 1: Now, don't do it anymore. It's not a good look
Speaker 1: at all. So I don't know. I think that like,
Speaker 1: if you want like little perky ones like I go
Speaker 1: for it. So then Austin is going over to Craig's
Speaker 1: house to hang out with him. In Page, they all
Speaker 1: sit down together and Page apologizes for not seeing Austin,
Speaker 1: but Craig is her priority, so if he's fighting with someone,
Speaker 1: she's going to hate them too, So okay, okay. Austin
Speaker 1: talks about his girlfriend, Audrey, who's twenty six and by
Speaker 1: the way, he's thirty six, which you know, whatever, ten
Speaker 1: years if it works, it works. They haven't talked about
Speaker 1: the future too much, but they recently said the L
Speaker 1: word to each other after six months of dinning. I
Speaker 1: don't think that's too soon at all. That's too soon,
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I mean, you know, when you
Speaker 1: love somebody like you you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was engaged with my husband probably around six months.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Eddie and I talked about marriage, like
Speaker 1: within six months. We didn't get married till three years later,
Speaker 1: but we knew, you know, when you find the right
Speaker 1: one exactly.
Speaker 3: I just thought it was crazy that Audrey's like, I
Speaker 3: want four kids. I always laugh when girls in their
Speaker 3: early twenties say that. I'm like, okay, we'll see how.
Speaker 1: Well, Well, push a couple out and tell me how
Speaker 1: many you want then, right. Austin isn't even going to
Speaker 1: bring up moving in together until they hit the two
Speaker 1: year mark, which I think, you know, that's good. I
Speaker 1: don't think there's anything wrong with that. Meanwhile, Craig was
Speaker 1: asking Pages she'd move in Charleston six months after dating.
Speaker 1: Audrey wants four kids, like you said in Page jokes
Speaker 1: that she should marry Craig.
Speaker 3: I feel like Page is starting We're seeing it right now,
Speaker 3: we're seeing that she's starting to get the ick irreversibly.
Speaker 1: She's got the ick, and you could see on Craig's
Speaker 1: face like, huh, it's awkward. Uh huh.
Speaker 3: Whenever I was in LA, I dated a guy that
Speaker 3: lived in New York and we didn't have the move
Speaker 3: in conversation right away. And then about almost two years in,
Speaker 3: he was like, so what are we doing here? Are
Speaker 3: you gonna move to New York. I'm like, oh, I
Speaker 3: hate it here, And I was like, you moved to
Speaker 3: LA and he hated LA, so like we had to
Speaker 3: break up. I wish so we had the conversation within
Speaker 3: six months.
Speaker 1: You know what, I really think that you know, living
Speaker 1: in Charleston, one living Charleston, one living in New York.
Speaker 1: I don't know how long is that flight. It's not
Speaker 1: that they can't ring more than like an hour an hour, yeah,
Speaker 1: but still they're working on a three year relationship where
Speaker 1: they live in different states. That can't be easy. No,
Speaker 1: I mean, I know, I don't know how often they
Speaker 1: see each other, but that's that's not easy.
Speaker 3: But I think they said they see each other like
Speaker 3: once a month, which you know, sometimes it works for
Speaker 3: people that way, but you can't have two separate households.
Speaker 1: Shot in your thirties, like you're getting to a point
Speaker 1: where you know you want to be with somebody, you
Speaker 1: want to move in, you want to get married, you
Speaker 1: want to have kids, and where you live in different
Speaker 1: states and neither one wants to move ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 2: Their lifestyle goals are completely different.
Speaker 1: And Shot they lasted this long, honestly same same.
Speaker 3: But I think that Craig is probably a really I
Speaker 3: think he seems like an easy guy to be with.
Speaker 3: I mean, he's cooking her breakfast and he's doing these things,
Speaker 3: and he seems pretty easy and so like it's easy
Speaker 3: to stay with someone like that.
Speaker 1: I will say, out of all the guys on that show,
Speaker 1: Craig is my favorite.
Speaker 2: He's changed a lot.
Speaker 3: I mean, he used to be such a mess, but yeah,
Speaker 3: he's definitely changed for the battle.
Speaker 1: I think that. I also think that Paige probably you know,
Speaker 1: kind of changed him, formed him into the person he
Speaker 1: is right now. She seems like a very young, but
Speaker 1: sophisticated girl, very classy, and before that he was just
Speaker 1: what just a frat boy basically.
Speaker 3: Yeah, addicted to adderall. I mean he said he was,
Speaker 3: and it was just kind of like a mess.
Speaker 1: And I think at this point, like you have. My
Speaker 1: son actually told me this recently because he's dated a
Speaker 1: few girls and we were talking about you know, like
Speaker 1: dating and breakups and how they they change you. And
Speaker 1: I think that, you know, you learn from every relationship,
Speaker 1: and I think that that he'll forever be changed for
Speaker 1: the good things.
Speaker 2: So too, I was.
Speaker 3: Concerned, uh, you know, whenever they broke up. I was like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, is he gonna start like partying a
Speaker 3: lot again? But you know, I've looked on his Instagram
Speaker 3: and everything, and he's still doing his he's still building
Speaker 3: his business in his career and he's opening new shops.
Speaker 1: And I hope he finds somebody falls in love and
Speaker 1: gets married, because that's what he wants. I hope that
Speaker 1: that's what he does. I hope he doesn't go back
Speaker 1: to the you know, the party in days.
Speaker 3: I see him with like a girl who's like a
Speaker 3: chef or wrote a cookbook or something, and I feel
Speaker 3: like they could collab and do some like cool business
Speaker 3: things together.
Speaker 1: Yep, I could say that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Vanita calls Leva and she's freaking out JT and
Speaker 1: Ryan go to the same barber, and that Barbara accuse
Speaker 1: JT of saying, and this is quotations. Some black girl
Speaker 1: is coming on to me and my girlfriend is going
Speaker 1: to be so pissed off. I know Vanita and Leva
Speaker 1: are shocked. Yeah, they've never known JT to speak this
Speaker 1: way at all, but why would Ryan and the other
Speaker 1: Barbara lie Levin needs to talk to JT firsthand about
Speaker 1: this because she is not willing to play the game
Speaker 1: of time, which is very mature of her. So thirty
Speaker 1: minutes after her phone call with Vanita, Leva has made
Speaker 1: plans to grab coffee with JT. JT explains that there
Speaker 1: was chemistry of Beanita, but he's never outright told her
Speaker 1: that he wants to be with her, which is confusing
Speaker 1: because I felt like something happened in the Bahamas, like
Speaker 1: she was on top of him.
Speaker 3: Uh. I feel like something more happened than what we know,
Speaker 3: and Bevanita's protecting him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when Vanita asked him to be her plus one
Speaker 1: to the soret, that's when he realized it was all
Speaker 1: a bad idea. Do you feel like JT led Vanita
Speaker 1: on I think we talked about this earlier, like I
Speaker 1: think he has.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit, I do.
Speaker 3: And I think that he kind of using her as
Speaker 3: an inn with a friend group.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense. So Leva tells JT what the
Speaker 1: barber allegedly said, and JD denies it completely. I do
Speaker 1: like the way he handled it like he didn't like
Speaker 1: get like pissed off and defensive right away. And I
Speaker 1: think this is a game of telephone. I don't think
Speaker 1: he said it. I think words got twisted.
Speaker 2: I think the same I do. I will say this
Speaker 2: about Leva.
Speaker 3: I do like Leva a lot that she is going
Speaker 3: to go to the source and she's like, let's figure
Speaker 3: this out, and she's gonna she gives JT the chance
Speaker 3: instead of just being like, oh fanita, don't talk to
Speaker 3: him again, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: I mean, Leva really wanted to hear get to the
Speaker 3: root of it. And I don't think that the Ryan
Speaker 3: guy was being purposefully messy like you said. I think
Speaker 3: it was just a misunderstanding and a twisting of words
Speaker 3: that really had a bad connotation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So JT says that sounds racist, and I'm not racist.
Speaker 1: JT is disgusted that Ryan would try to stir the
Speaker 1: pot and paint him as a racist. Leva suggests he
Speaker 1: called the barber directly, so he does, and I know,
Speaker 1: and the barber denies he said some black girl and
Speaker 1: instead said there's some This is what he said. This
Speaker 1: is what the barber said. That went down, and he
Speaker 1: said that JT said there's some interest around a cute
Speaker 1: black girl named Vanita. What I don't like is he
Speaker 1: didn't have to call her a black girl, right, Yeah?
Speaker 1: Why why does it have to be that? Why can't
Speaker 1: it just be there's some interest around a really cute girl.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but also that a cute, cute black girl named
Speaker 3: Vanita is also super different than some black girl, which
Speaker 3: is just like irrogatory.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, there is It sounds.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, he didn't have to say he didn't have.
Speaker 1: To say it like that. Yeah. The barber admits he
Speaker 1: could have relayed the information wrong and not been articulate
Speaker 1: about it. JT hates it. He's constantly navigating tricky situations
Speaker 1: with his friend group. He's over it, and I'm wondering
Speaker 1: if this pushed him to the end where he said
Speaker 1: he quit the show thing girl.
Speaker 3: That's exactly what I thought I was just like, this
Speaker 3: would if I was constantly people were constantly saying things
Speaker 3: that I didn't say and trying to make me look
Speaker 3: like a liar and saying all these horrible things, I
Speaker 3: would want to quit the show.
Speaker 2: And at that point, it's like, he clearly does.
Speaker 3: Have a friendship with Venita and he does care about
Speaker 3: her to some degree, and that would.
Speaker 2: Have upset me so much that I would have wanted
Speaker 2: to quit the show.
Speaker 1: Remind me, has JT been on other seasons? Yeah?
Speaker 3: He I think he was on one or two before that,
Speaker 3: and oh last season, Yeah he was the last season.
Speaker 2: But he wasn't really well liked from the beginning. Oh
Speaker 2: he wasn't.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I will say that he does make the
Speaker 1: show interesting this season.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he has a lot of drama, and every time
Speaker 3: he's on the screen, he has drama. But I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think that I would want to quit the show
Speaker 3: as well. And I can see that's where all these
Speaker 3: rumors and about him quitting came from. And he's just
Speaker 3: to the point where he's like, I don't even want
Speaker 3: to be around these people anymore.
Speaker 2: I would want to quit the show too. If you
Speaker 2: can't even either you show up. You probably know this.
Speaker 3: You show up and you try to befriend everyone or
Speaker 3: show up and fight with everyone, but you got to
Speaker 3: show up.
Speaker 1: Well, thank you for that. So there's so many things
Speaker 1: that we could be calling JT rather than resorting to
Speaker 1: try to make him look like a racist. I don't
Speaker 1: believe that he's a racist at all. I think that
Speaker 1: the way he responded to it, in the way that
Speaker 1: the barber admitted will maybe I was an articulate and
Speaker 1: what I said maybe I could have said it better
Speaker 1: and I could see how, you know, it would get twisted.
Speaker 3: I did like that the barber admitted he wasn't like,
Speaker 3: I'm not responsible, he said, maybe it was kind of me.
Speaker 3: So we're seeing now that JT wasn't one hundred percent
Speaker 3: of fault in this situation.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So ten minutes later, JT calls Venita. He's freaking
Speaker 1: out because he feels like all of the people they
Speaker 1: associate are snakes. He's not feeling comfortable and with anybody,
Speaker 1: and yeah, I can relate to that. He tells media
Speaker 1: how much he loves her and explains that he got
Speaker 1: all of this cleared up by the barber. He's being
Speaker 1: made out to look like a racist when he's not.
Speaker 1: It seems like JT is at his breaking point right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's smiraling, Yeah, smiling. Now we know why JT wanted
Speaker 1: to quit the show. Like we said, I don't blame him.
Speaker 1: This is a huge acquisation and when things like that
Speaker 1: are put out there, that you've done something like that,
Speaker 1: you can't get rid of it. You can't get rid
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've had a situation like that and you can't
Speaker 3: get rid of it. And it's a friend of mine too.
Speaker 3: It's a girl that I had to fight with that
Speaker 3: was a that's still a friend to this day. And
Speaker 3: it just it sucks because it's like that one thing
Speaker 3: and doesn't matter how many conversations you have after, it kind.
Speaker 2: Of just sticks.
Speaker 3: But yeah, JT's just going to have to get He's
Speaker 3: just gonna have to continuously be like, that's not what happened.
Speaker 3: And if I said something in a way that's insensitive,
Speaker 3: I apologize.
Speaker 2: You know, he's just going to have to do that.
Speaker 2: And I think he he does mean that.
Speaker 3: I think that he cares about Benita and he wouldn't
Speaker 3: say anything like that.
Speaker 1: Well, next episode will be the season finale. We have
Speaker 1: seen the looks for the reunion all very beautiful, and
Speaker 1: we've got one more episode left and then the reunion.
Speaker 3: But on on the next episode, you see Molly and
Speaker 3: Chef of a moment.
Speaker 1: Oh, I didn't I clicked off after that. I didn't see.
Speaker 1: I didn't see.
Speaker 3: That's gonna be very interesting.
Speaker 1: Car. Yeah, see what happens there.
Speaker 3: I'm excited. I'm excited for the reunion. I'm do we
Speaker 3: know if JT goes to the reunion.
Speaker 2: I haven't heard.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But if you what do you think
Speaker 1: is going to happen to this cast? I think that
Speaker 1: this overall this season. I did watch last season, uh,
Speaker 1: just to catch up when we when Teddy and I
Speaker 1: started recapping. Yeah, this season, and do you think they're
Speaker 1: gonna do a shake up on this cast?
Speaker 2: I think that.
Speaker 3: If JT comes back, they're going to give him a
Speaker 3: redemption season. But if not, I think that they needed.
Speaker 3: I think they should show the guys more, Rodrigo and Ryan.
Speaker 3: I feel like they should put them in the show
Speaker 3: a little bit more and like they're just sort of
Speaker 3: side characters. But I think Rodrigo every time he's on
Speaker 3: there is really funny.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not on that that much. But we did
Speaker 1: just found out that Jat was at the reunion, so
Speaker 1: that's good as an all time I mean, you're a
Speaker 1: longtime watcher of this show, right, so do you feel
Speaker 1: like this was not one of their best seasons? I
Speaker 1: didn't love it.
Speaker 2: They focused way too much on the Sienna storyline. I
Speaker 2: mean that was episode after episode and I was just like, come.
Speaker 1: On, when do you think that girl's going to get
Speaker 1: her own show?
Speaker 2: No? I think she's done. We've seen enough of her.
Speaker 3: But I personally would love to see some of the
Speaker 3: old cast comeback. I would like to see Thomas Ravenel
Speaker 3: me too, is the biggest mess ever. I would love
Speaker 3: to see him back on the show.
Speaker 1: But what's the girl's name? The redhead?
Speaker 2: Katherine Dennis? Yeah, what's she doing?
Speaker 1: I don't know what is she doing?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I would I would like to know.
Speaker 3: I think sometimes whenever you put people on a pause
Speaker 3: for a long time and then they come back, it
Speaker 3: is amazing.
Speaker 1: Yes, I agree, I agree with that. So we'll see
Speaker 1: what happens. So, uh, next week the season finale, then
Speaker 1: the reunion, and well, we'll soon find out what's gonna
Speaker 1: happen with this show.
Speaker 3: I'm excited. I can't wait. I'm also excited for it
Speaker 3: to be over.
Speaker 1: And I mean, I'm not gonna lie. When I heard
Speaker 1: next Time on the season finale, I got a little excited.
Speaker 2: Yeah you're like, Okay, let's wrap it up.
Speaker 3: It wasn't my favorite season, but yeah, okay for your
Speaker 3: show to come.
Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear that because it's a long time.
Speaker 1: You know, if you were that this wasn't their best
Speaker 1: season because they've been around for a long time, so
Speaker 1: I'm like, what is going on her?
Speaker 3: No, the best seasons that they've had was whenever Catherine
Speaker 3: and Thomas were together, and.
Speaker 1: I want to see her girl action me too.
Speaker 3: It's it was very guy heavy the storylines were this season,
Speaker 3: and I feel like the girls definitely have more. Also,
Speaker 3: Taylor and her new boyfriend. He must not want to
Speaker 3: be on camera at all, because like we don't see him,
Speaker 3: and I'm kind of wondering why Taylor's even there.
Speaker 2: Right I know, I know she's going to have to
Speaker 2: bring him around, like.
Speaker 1: There's another she's another cutie Petuti herself, and I want
Speaker 1: to see more Madison. Yeah, I want to see her Madison.
Speaker 1: Next next season, she'll have her little girl. I'm hoping
Speaker 1: that we get to see more of her relationship and
Speaker 1: bring in some other girl. I don't know, I just
Speaker 1: it's really guy heavy.
Speaker 2: I'm just excited for the two.
Speaker 3: Like two of my favorite Bravo queens, like Madison and
Speaker 3: Lindsay Hubbard both having girls. Well Lindsay just had hers obvious,
Speaker 3: but it's just exciting to see whenever you're seeing these
Speaker 3: people start out dating these douchey guys and then now
Speaker 3: they are having their life that they deserve.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe the guys will come back and they all
Speaker 1: have like committed relationships and they'll be different. Now, that's
Speaker 1: never going to happen, all right, Well, thank you guys
Speaker 1: for tuning in and we'll see you soon.
Speaker 2: Have fun and Big Bear, oh thank you
