1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I am in Atlantic City in a hotel room.

2
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 1: I came here to do an appearance right after watch

3
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: What Happens Live. Usually, watch What Happens Live is live

4
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 1: and you walk out of there like ten thirty and

5
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: or eleven sometimes and people have been drinking and it's chaotic.

6
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: And let me explain to you what watch What Happens

7
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: A Live is like. And I've been doing it since

8
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: the very very beginning when Kathy Griffin said she wouldn't

9
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: do it. She's done Johnny Carson and she would never

10
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: do watch what Happens Live. That was the beginning. Um,

11
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: I remember her saying that to me. And of course

12
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: now Oprah has been on watch about his live, so

13
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: as every other major celebrity, so as Hillary Clinton. So anyway,

14
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: I've been doing it since the beginning when Kathy Griffin

15
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it. Um. And it used to be you, well,

16
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: you went into a building and you went up an elevator,

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: you came out and there was like this bank of

18
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: offices and a corner office was the head producer who

19
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: owns the production company. I think if they still produce it,

20
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: and I would sort of sit in there and wait

21
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: with my group and it was their personal office and

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: then you would come and go into this other room

23
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: which was like a little cute green room and get

24
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: your makeup done and go out to watch Lavens live.

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: Now it's just and I remember they used to do crafts,

26
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: are have they have, like used to have a bunch

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: of food. They used to order it in the beginning,

28
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: but there wasn't you know, they would make their own cocktails.

29
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: They they've been doing it right since the beginning. But

30
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: now it's really you walk in through you go in

31
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: through some other side of the building, which is like

32
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: the bowels of the building, and coming through the back,

33
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: and there are all these different people and they're staged

34
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: in one area, and there's a step and repete, and

35
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: there's a backstage, and there are multiple green rooms and

36
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: they're like there's tons of social media and they're all

37
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: these different things. And so you're still in like the

38
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: bowels of the building, and there's still banks of offices

39
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: and there's snacks in certain places, but it's like you

40
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: moved from one place to another and one dress room

41
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: to another because might be recording another show earlier, and

42
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: they used to not record shows and now they record

43
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: other shows earlier. So on this day I came in

44
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: and was in one like busy, big makeup room and

45
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: I had only seen once before where multiple people could

46
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: get their makeup done. And I ran into Teresa, who

47
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: had been on the show earlier, and that was a

48
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: fun interaction. And then Andy comes and he always comes in,

49
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: which is great as a host, and and then you

50
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: shuttled to like another room with your whole group where

51
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: like your green room is, and you're doing touch ups

52
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: and you're waiting to go out, and it's just like

53
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: a lot of chaos because there's usually drinking and people

54
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: in action and social media and it's and just it's

55
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: just crowded and there's chaos, and so you leave and

56
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: you're just exhausted. So I went into watch What Happens

57
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: Live on the heels of a conflict with Andy Cohen,

58
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: I announced re Wives, and on that morning before it

59
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: was announced, I texted Andy Cohen and said it was

60
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: my birthday, and I said, happy birthday. Um, you'll this

61
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: you'll think is amazing or whatever. So I sent him

62
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: the clip of Elizabeth Moss on Rewise and he said,

63
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: fun exclamation point. I because of my crazy abused to childhood.

64
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: That was not normal. I had Spidey sense, so you see,

65
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: he said fun and then and I said it to Paul,

66
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: and I said it to like a couple of the

67
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: people and they said that sounds great. I said, no,

68
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: that's not that's not that's negative. They were like what,

69
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, I know it all. Him saying oh fun

70
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: is like he doesn't know what to say, so he's

71
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 1: just saying oh fun to just say something. So then

72
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: I said something like, it's not you know, it's really amazing,

73
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: it's really interesting. It's different, and it is different because

74
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: because I don't see any other former fired housewives having

75
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: Elizabeth moss Emy winning you know, world round actresses on

76
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: their shows. And I said something and he said, I'm

77
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: just glad to see you embracing the housewives. That told

78
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: me everything I need to know. That told me, oh,

79
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna go on a rock not a really, I

80
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: didn't know we'd go on the ride, and went on

81
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: a ride. Meaning And he's shading it a little because

82
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: he's read everything I've said, but he always acts like

83
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: he hasn't read anything I've said because so many things

84
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 1: I've have happened, whether it's the MTV Award or other

85
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: things where my show money Cork gets announced, and I

86
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: don't get a text from him congratulating me. And I'm

87
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: always like, why did he congratulate me? Because he does

88
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: seem to read everything, So he did read everything I

89
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: guess that I've ever said. I never knew if he

90
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: did because he doesn't ever bring it up. So now

91
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: he's effectively saying, you've shaded the Housewives. But he didn't

92
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: say this yet, so everything is just oh great, I'm

93
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: just glad to see you're embracing the Housewives. Okay. Then

94
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: we pitched it as a show on Bravo because we

95
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: thought it would be a great show, sort of like

96
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: they had something about the Couch. There was a couch

97
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: show on Bravo. We pitched there because we think with

98
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: all the clips, would be an amazing show. We didn't

99
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: know how successful it would be, was just an idea,

100
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: but we thought it was pretty good. I mean, the

101
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: production company thought it was pretty amazing. The way that

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: Bravo responded seemed like there was a little bit of

103
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: sensitivity around my launching rewives, like it being a little personal.

104
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: And in the past I've had situations where Bravo it's

105
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 1: very personal to them versus only being about the business.

106
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: So I did write a book called Business Personal, but

107
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: Bravo definitely has taken things personally about our business. So

108
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: then Andy jumps into the Housewives pool and while he's

109
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: on his show, he says something about that he was surprised,

110
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: and he says that I've you know, said negative things

111
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: about the Housewives, which I've said it was toxic because

112
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: it was for me, and someone recycles when Andy's already

113
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: said and he doubles down, and he says he's shocked

114
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: because I've trashed the Housewives for so long. But he

115
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: doesn't say any of this to me privately. He says

116
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: it publicly. So I'm thinking, am I going to respond

117
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: to this? So the same day that that comes out,

118
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: the same day we had been turned down for watching

119
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: What Happens Live to promote rewives, So the same day

120
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: that and and money for it. So the same day

121
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: that that article, the all the articles come out about

122
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: Andy saying he's shocked what actually Happens Live's called and

123
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: I predicted this. I woke up in the morning, I said,

124
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't it be smart of them to book me? I

125
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: don't know if they'd have the guts to do it,

126
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: but to book me on Andy show right after it's

127
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: he's been sort of calling me out publicly, not privately,

128
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: so they book us on the show. I'm like, here

129
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: we go. My whole team is like, here we go.

130
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: I still don't hear from Andy. So now the show

131
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: comes and I hear that a book with Jeff lewis.

132
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: So now I'm booked on the show. And I talked

133
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: to my podcast producer. She's very smart Amy, and I

134
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: say to her, he's all over talking about being shocked

135
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: and it's picked up everywhere. Do I just wait for

136
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: his show and comment on what I think? She goes, No,

137
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: why would you give it all to his show? Say

138
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: it on your show? Mentioned it all. I'm like, wow,

139
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: this is unique because everybody's used to going on Andy

140
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: show and him getting all the scoop on everything. And

141
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: so I said, okay, So I've commented on Its still

142
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: nothing privately from Andy. So I'm like, all right, let's

143
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: let it ride. Let's wait. Yea. So I go to

144
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: Andy show and it's chaotic asolas and I bring my

145
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: daughter and we get there in the afternoon. Thank god,

146
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: because it's taped and it's gonna be a lot. It's

147
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: gonna be on days later, so it's not eleven o'clock

148
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: at night. I'm not drinking alcohol. I get there and

149
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: he comes in. I see Theresa first. I talked to Andy.

150
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: All good, We do a TikTok together. Then we're on

151
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: the show. He comes right out with it. Okay, so

152
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: we have, you know, beef, or we have a conflict.

153
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: The only reason it's not real conflict is because we

154
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: both know the game. Andy and I are friends, and

155
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: we do go on beach walks and we do text,

156
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: and he has told me things that no one knows.

157
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: And I know where all the bodies are buried, and

158
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: he knows exactly how much money I walked out of

159
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: there getting paid, and he knows. I'm not gonna tell

160
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: anyone because we're both grown acid adults in the entertainment

161
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: industry first, that's what we both are. First, we're both

162
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: protecting our own realm. So I know that while he

163
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: didn't do it privately, even though we're friends, that he's

164
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: saving it first show because he's putting business first. So

165
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: he says we um had beef, etcetera. And he said,

166
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: I said this. He said, I said surprise. I said,

167
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: shocked is what you said. And I said, and we

168
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: haven't discussed this. We have only discussed this has only

169
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: been out publicly. You chose to air this publicly, not privately,

170
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: like just like a housewife. He saved it for the show.

171
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: He did not say it to me. Here's my text.

172
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: We text about the dumbest thing you could text me privately,

173
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: ay that you didn't love it. I'm doing it. Be

174
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: that you're shocked any of this. So I didn't know

175
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: any of this until this came out in the public.

176
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: So then he says, you said it's toxic, and you

177
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: said it's boring. I said, I didn't say it's boring.

178
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: I said. He said, you said leg because he was born.

179
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: I said, I haven't seen Legacy. He said the announcement.

180
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: I said, the announcement was boring. We're announcing two shows.

181
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: We're recycling and putting the same people through the recycle

182
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: and recycling former and fired housewives. Over here in a

183
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: quote unquote legacy. I mean, we have a new show. Great,

184
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: we have a new show. That was the idea that

185
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: I thought was more interesting. But I did think Legacy

186
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: was born guilty and I stopped. So I'm in between

187
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: Jeff and Andy and he's to my right, Jeff is

188
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: to my left. So now Jeff comes and he goes

189
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: and what's so yeah, and what's so different about this Housewives?

190
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: Because I said, really, and what's so different about your podcast?

191
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: So now shots are fired, like there's a little shade,

192
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, real subtle, not that subtle shade

193
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: and frosting. Oh really, and what's so different teaming up

194
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: the ball? What's so different about this podcast? So I've

195
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: just gone over here and said to Andy, well, you

196
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: said shocked and it was boring and also I'm entitled

197
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: to talk about it. Check that box. Now I'm over

198
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: here playing tennis and Jeff is that? So? What and

199
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: what's different about this? I'm like, well, it's not first

200
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 1: and four. And I don't even realize that Jeff is

201
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: a podcast about the housewives. I've never heard his podcast,

202
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: so I guess he talks about the housewives, but he's

203
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: not even on Okay, he has nothing to do with

204
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: the Housewives. But and he's so I didn't know anything.

205
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: I didn't even know what I'm about to tell you.

206
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 1: So I said to Jeff. He says, and what's different?

207
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: I said, because I wasn't thinking of him. I said, well,

208
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: it's not fired disgruntled Bravo housewives talking about the podcast.

209
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: So he says, I was fired. I didn't even know this.

210
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: He says, I was fired, And I said, well, well

211
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: that's why you're so bitter, because he's anger. He's clearly

212
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: bitter about something it doesn't even involve him. But maybe

213
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: he thinks it involves him because he's a fired employee

214
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: that's now talking about his former high school, which is

215
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: what I've said, So maybe now he thinks this involves

216
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: him when it really doesn't. So he then is like, wait,

217
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: I was just cheating up your podcast. He's trying to pretend,

218
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: which later Andy clarified was shade. He's trying to pretend

219
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: you what pretend? He wasn't shading me, And he was

220
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: just wondering what's different about my podcast? And I was like,

221
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: if you're gonna come for me, you're gonna get shot.

222
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: Check that box. Now he's on alert. So anyway, now

223
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: we're going back and forth. Then they say, why, um,

224
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: did you want file? Kyle? Kyle and I do want

225
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: follow and follow people randomly, like sometimes someone's posted so

226
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: many times about something. Maybe it was about Housewives and

227
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: I wasn't on Housewives at the time. Maybe it was

228
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: about Erica Jane. I have no idea. I literally don't know.

229
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: But I am friends with Kyle. I do text Kyle,

230
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: and I am literally friends of people that I don't follow.

231
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: Out Andy points out, we don't follow each other, Jeff,

232
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: I am sort of, you know, bullshit friendly with We

233
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: don't follow each other, and I follow random makeup artists

234
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 1: and weird people like from stores that have reached out

235
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: to me. I have no method to my madness and

236
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: my following on Instagram. Someone could clean out my house.

237
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: I do know, because I do know that I don't

238
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: follow Balencia to thank God, because other people have controlled

239
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: for following them. I have a random system for who

240
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: I following and followed. But Jeff, what are you coming

241
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: in for me? Because Jeff was behind making faces. Okay,

242
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: so all this is to say for me, none of

243
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: this was anything. This was just a normal day at

244
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: the office. Because I'm used to going in to the

245
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: Bravo clubhouse with armor not even knowing, and I thought

246
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: to myself, what I didn't stay to Jeff Lewis, which

247
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: I'm mentioning at all with you, this is not spilling

248
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: TV is spilling strong coffee. We're gonna spill strong coffee

249
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: on re Rest, no diluted TA. This will be strong

250
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: coffee spills. So what I didn't say to Jeff Lewis

251
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: is what's different. It's not former or fired disgruntled housewives

252
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: slash employees. It's also internationally acclaimed actors, comedians, actresses. Elizabeth

253
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: Moss is not going on you know, housewives recap shows.

254
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: So sorry, not sorry, that should be the name of

255
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: this show. But what was interesting to me after getting

256
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: unbeknownst to me, sort of quietly ambushed, I come off

257
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: and my daughter was like, WHOA, that was shady, and

258
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: my assistants like whoa, and my assistant, my daughter and

259
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: everyone around said, oh, they came for you. It looked

260
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: like there was a tennis match that you were in

261
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: the middle and you were just hitting back balls. And

262
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: my assistant said, the difference is everybody else comes in

263
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: with a script and you are not done up a

264
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: script and you're just answering in the moment, which happened

265
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: to me on One reunion. One reunion, you can ask Andy.

266
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: There was a firing squad on the opposite couch firing

267
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: squad and I took them all one by one how

268
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: God only knows, but I did. So don't come for

269
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: me unless I send for you. That's a Kenya more line.

270
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: Because my assistance were everyone in my team. This is

271
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: what shocked me. I thought, oh, that was fun, Andy, Andy,

272
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: and I thought, oh that was sort of fun. And

273
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: that was a lot. Everyone on my team said that

274
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: guy Jeff Lewis is mean. He's not a nice person.

275
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: He came for you for no reason, like you didn't

276
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,599
Speaker 1: do anything to him. I actually brought he and his

277
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: daughter a gift. I brought him an Italian simple little nothing,

278
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, a handpainted ornament from Italy. Um. I bought

279
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: them when I was in Italy waiting for Christmas, and

280
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: I've only given out one to Jeff Lewis to be

281
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: honest with you. UM. And I gave a cute like

282
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: squish him with Hello Kitty Pineapple to his daughter. I

283
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: looked up how old is his daughter? My name is Monroe,

284
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: and I realized that that would be nice for her.

285
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: And he came with a firing squad for no reason,

286
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: with no goal. I'm not on the show with you.

287
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: I have nothing to do with you. What are you

288
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: so angry about? What do you care about what I'm doing?

289
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,199
Speaker 1: He looked at me like I had just vomited on him.

290
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: He had something going on, So it was a bit

291
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: of an ambush. I totally held my own. But it's

292
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: another thing. My assistant, Taylor said, that was interesting. She said,

293
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: you often say how we represent you, meaning when we're

294
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 1: out and about, meaning my staff. You want us to

295
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: just like not be have our heads in our phones

296
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: all the time. It'd be nice to people and be kind.

297
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: And same goes for me, Bethany. Sometimes I'm looking at something,

298
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: I'm stressed about something, I'm not looking up, I'm not

299
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: saying hello to somebody I've passed in a lobby, and

300
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: it all matters because that's their one interaction with me.

301
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: And they experienced it as rude, even if I was

302
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: in my head or I wasn't rude. And so they

303
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: and and and I realized that that person will tell

304
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: everyone they know that I was rude. And and my

305
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: assistant said, he's that person. Now. Everyone we were with

306
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: thinks he is so nasty and mean, and came for

307
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 1: you for no reason. They were like, what did you

308
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: do to him? And I frankly don't know. So that's

309
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: the strong coffee about what happened. And watch What Happens Live,

310
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 1: And I'm not saving it for Andy show. I'm giving

311
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: it to you here on my show and not just

312
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: coming in for the low hanging fruit clickbait and trashing people.

313
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: I'm giving you context and telling you a story. This

314
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: is my experience at Watch What Happens Live, Paul said

315
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: to me, Jeff came for you, then he quickly became

316
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: your your your friendly sidekick. The whole point is what

317
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: my assistant said about how people will perceive you. Um.

318
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: The other thing is what's crazy is how desensitized I

319
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: have been. Here's the moral of the story. It is

320
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: a toxic environment because I did not even realize that

321
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: people were coming from me for no reason, Like I

322
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: didn't do anything. I mean, it was it felt like,

323
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: you know, Andy was business as usual. But I'm sitting

324
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: with a person who came for me for no reason whatsoever.

325
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: I literally was just sitting down on a talk show

326
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: and the other guests was trying to got Jimmy the

327
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: whole time. He was just angry. He didn't want to

328
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: play the game, and he set up for him, and

329
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: it just it felt, it felt toxic, and it felt

330
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: it felt just a fight. I'm gonna listen to these bitter,

331
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: angry people about what I shouldn't shouldn't do in a podcast.

332
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: Why do you care about what podcasts I'm doing? H
