I caught season one. A couple 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:16.560 of episodes of season one. I was like, Oh, this 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.520 show is good, but for some reason, it was never 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.600 on my radar in terms of appointment television. 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:27.679 Right, but I never liked Tuesdays I'm watching VPR.

He 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:35.000 reminds me of a young Johnny Depp. 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:39.120 He reminds me of Luke Perry. 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.120 You know that that you know from nine oh two, 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:46.520 one oh Rest in peace.

He has a beautiful face. I honestly think 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.480 that Schwartz has such a he has a very very 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:17.480 cute face. But you have to do your vander Pump 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:21.520 rewatch and like do the whole ten season situation. Katie, 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.000 who used to be with Schwortz, famously said that his 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:25.560 dick doesn't work, so. 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:27.360 He has a pretty face. 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:30.680 But I don't know if the equipment were so I 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:31.480 don't know, I don't know. 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:32.720 I feel like Carlos, I. 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.000 Think it's best for us to stay away from both 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:37.680 of them in this moment, you know what I mean. 0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:45.200 So, wait, Shorts doesn't have a working dick, according to Katie, Okay, 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:48.320 when you say working, meaning does he need VIAGRAA to 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:52.280 get it up or or it gets up? But there's 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:55.200 no motion in the ocean. If you catch my drift. 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.200 The details are unclear. 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:01.000 We don't really know the the insult came out of 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.240 Katie's mouth. I think she was just looking to hit 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.280 Schwartz where it hurts, and I think she did because 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:09.720 Schwartz has maintained that his dick does in fact work. 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.040 So the jury is still out whether it works or not. 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:15.600 We should ask Joe ooh, you know the little side 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:18.360 piece that was hanging in the apartment that Katie was 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:21.320 not vibing with, that Katie has called spooky, that Katie 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:22.560 has called a creep. 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:23.000 Why? 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.720 I wonder why we didn't get a Joe appearance on 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.720 the season, especially if she was like living in the apartment. 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.160 I guess I would imagine production one term was like 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.360 do you want to film a few scenes girl? 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:36.480 Right? Or no? 0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:38.200 Oh? Absolutely? 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:41.280 And the way you said I'm brave to admit that 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.880 Sandoval's gorgeous, I'm sure she was like, look, bitch, you're 0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:47.200 not going to get me back on this show doing 0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.960 the scandal because I don't want to get canceled. 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:51.600 Right. 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:55.439 Everybody wants to stay away from it, and that's why. Look, 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:58.720 I appreciate y Cal for showing up. I mean, she 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.200 may need to check I still appreciate it. 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:06.360 What did you think of this sort of frivolous pr 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:09.440 stunt of a restraining order having to sit in the 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:11.480 trailer one hundred yards away, like. 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:13.320 A full football field away. 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.880 Meanwhile, she's like literally like watching as if she's like 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.600 snacking on popcorn Carlos when she has her chin in 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:28.400 her hands like this, Like it's hysterical but also kind 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:31.760 of terrifying, in maniacal, Like where does it land with 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:33.920 you and your soul when you watch that? 0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:38.000 Oh honey, she's a villain. So listen, I love talking 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.840 to you because obviously you are an esteemed journalist. You 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.280 are a reporter, and you're a fan of the show 0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:48.920 and rain Drops, all the housewives and Brava celebrities, even Nivia, 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:54.280 Like everybody loves Evan, real Evan, everybody loves him. So 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:57.480 I look at it also from a producer standpoint, right, 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:05.840 I find Raquel so interesting because there is something maniacal 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:10.319 about the fact that you did this restraining order for 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:13.120 reasons we know, which is you don't want to You 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:14.960 want to deal with it, but you don't want to 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.000 deal with it, so you're playing this tug of war 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:21.520 between I like being famous, but I'm being I'm becoming infamous, 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:22.679 and I'm trying to figure. 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:26.840 Out which path to take. Right. She obviously is a 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:27.440 pretty girl. 0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:34.040 She's a pretty girl, and she comes across very dainty 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:39.680 and a little bit dingy, and I think it works 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:42.960 for her. So as I'm watching her in the trailer 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:44.959 watching the show, she. 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:48.840 Raquel, I think you're pretty. 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:52.160 You look crazy, Like she look crazy to me because 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:56.440 I was like, emotion. 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:59.840 Theless, yes, she does look crazy and emotionless, and it 0:10:59.880 --> 0:11:02.040 was just like so jarring. Well, the one time she 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:05.880 kind of perked up was when James and Santoval were 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:10.080 having that like near physical brawl altercation situation. Meanwhile, Andy's 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.480 trying to ask the question, when you started hooking up 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.319 with Rakel, why don't you just end it with Ariana, 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:17.760 and as like all the chaos is happening and Santaval 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:19.800 isn't able to answer the question. Raquel's like sitting in 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:22.320 the trailer like I really want him to answer this question, 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:26.800 like answer it. I want to hear, Like what what 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:29.199 do you think he's gonna say. It's like she was 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.480 waiting for some like I don't know, like loving soliloquy 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:35.000 or something like what. 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:38.000 The reason they're fighting, the reason they're like hitting each other. 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:41.720 Is because of you. And she's honey, I hope like. 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:43.679 Santaval haws someome sweet things to say it about me. 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:47.480 So let's let's let's get into it.

I watched this Randall documentary on Hulu 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.280 and got my entire life for one hour and forty 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.439 five minutes of that fucking scandal. We'll do another recap 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.959 later about that. So I'm all about La La. I'm 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:39.840 all about her podcast, I'm all about her t shirt line. 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.160 Send it to Darryl, which is Darryl Miller, her attorney 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:47.400 who also represents Angela Bassett and used to represent Nini Leaks. 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:48.880 Just some background teap. 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:50.520 For you guys know that. 0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:54.640 Oh he also used to represent Kenya Moore. 0:12:55.679 --> 0:13:00.440 Daryl Miller is like a legend. Oh he's an icon. Yeah. 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:04.360 So he has everybody again, from Angela Bassett esteemed Golden 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:07.160 Glove winning actress to La La Camp a bra B 0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:09.560 celebrity who is making money from. 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:10.400 The show and in the podcast. 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:14.840 Okay, so I'm watching it and I haven't seen Lisa 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:19.160 Vanda Pump since she exited stage left on Beverly Hills 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.560 when she by Kyle, Like, that was the last time 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:23.040 I saw Lisavanda Pump in action. 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:25.520 So when she came out wearing. 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:30.160 The black version of Giselle Bryant's reunion dress, which you know, Shaye, 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:32.120 Lisa looked great in it, I. 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:32.960 Just put that together. 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:36.760 Wow. Yeah, it was a black version of Yeah. 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.120 Okay, yeah, I got it. I'm a fan. 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.200 Oh all good, love it. Right. 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:45.960 So, when Lisa Vanda Pump, which we got to do 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.240 a deep dive into Evan because you watch the show, 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:55.080 When Lisa Vanda Pump started to defend Tom Sandoval, Well, 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:59.319 but don't call him dangerous, dal don't call him dangerous. 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:04.959 That's a vent heystro accusation. Don't call him dangerous, right, And. 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:08.160 Lala's like, pretty much paraphrasing, Lala's like, I didn't ask 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:13.000 for your fucking opinion, And I was like, Oh, these 0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:18.080 people do not respect Lisa Vanda Pump at all. And 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.720 Lisa Vanda Pump looks shocked. What the f is going 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.800 on on the show to where Lisa Vanda Pump. From 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:28.440 my understanding, she's their boss, She's the granddam. 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:30.240 The show is named after her. 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:34.480 But I get the sense that they don't respect her, 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.200 and she's gagging because the way you control those nine 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.680 to two one zero bitches, you're not able to. 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:43.040 Do that to these millennials. 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:47.360 Yeah, I was honestly so shocked to see Lala come 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.280 at Lisa Vander from that way. I'm not saying I 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:51.480 didn't enjoy it, Like I was absolutely living for it, 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:55.000 because I love when any one sort of like defies authority, 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:57.480 whether I agree with it or not, I certainly like 0:14:57.720 --> 0:14:58.920 feel the rush watching it. 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:01.840 But I I think with Lisa. 0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:05.880 Vander Pump, you know, only the only person really truly 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:09.200 working at the restaurant is raquel, Like that's the only 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.080 full time cast member working at the restaurant. I don't 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:14.200 I don't even know how much she like really works there. 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:19.720 So she's the only sense of boss she is to 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:23.200 these kids, is like as an EP of the show, 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:26.880 Like she's not really there like boss at sir any longer. 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:29.560 And I also think that these kids' lives are becoming 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:34.440 so interesting as they get older, and Lisa's role in 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:35.400 their lives. 0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:36.320 Is sort of decreasing. 0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:37.840 And I've seen like a lot of people on social 0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:41.080 media talk about, like is Lisa really essential to the 0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.240 show anymore? Should we just like let her go? It's 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:44.880 kind of like, you know, she kind of has to 0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:47.200 like consert herself because she's like an EP. Her name 0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:49.480 is on it, like she is the reason this show exists. 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:51.720 Like I feel like we're like in an interesting era 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:54.880 right now where we're like figuring out how how we 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.480 move forward with or without Lisa. And I think that 0:15:57.480 --> 0:15:59.400 that's registering in the cast members' minds. 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:00.800 They're like, well, well you. 0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:03.440 Don't really like I can say how I feel and 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:05.760 I can reject your opinion. Lisavander Pump because you really 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:07.400 don't have any pull over me anymore. 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:12.640 It took some balls, Yeah, it took balls, testicles, everything 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.760 to stand up to Lisa Vanda Pump because I'm just 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:21.240 reminded about how the Housewives of Beverly Hills used to 0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:24.120 be so afraid of her. I mean, my favorite housewife, 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:27.440 Kylee called her Bobby Fischer, right like the game that 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.240 she plays. So to see La La stand up to her, 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.080 I was like, oh my gosh. And Emma James Kennedy 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:37.840 kinda also defended himself against her, And in that very moment, 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:42.840 what I saw was Lisa Vanda Pump realizing she lost 0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:48.240 control of the cast. She doesn't have control anymore over 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:52.560 this show. The cast, the cast barely wanted to respect Andy, 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:55.440 like the fact that they kept talking over him, and 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:59.680 the fact that James Kennedy, who deserves an Oscar Inmy. 0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:01.320 Golden Glow, ras the award. 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:07.120 His performance was so fantastic, it was it was fascinating 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:12.720 to watch. But do you think that Lisa was defending Tom. 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.120 Yeah, I mean I think she wasn't. 0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:19.000 I think that also added to the lack of respect 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.960 that the cast showed her as a whole, because obviously 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.680 no one is messing with Tom right now. And the 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:29.119 fact that she was sort of like defending him in 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:34.199 any like she could have, she was defending him, I 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:37.880 think pretty like lightly like I just but you can't 0:17:37.880 --> 0:17:40.879 get away with any defense of Tom Sandoval right now. 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.040 So I think that that definitely like impacted the way 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:44.920 that they spoke to her because they're like, what you're 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:47.440 not gonna do is defend Tom Sandoval in this moment. 0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.280 So yeah, and like even I was at a panel 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:52.800 the other day because the Evan front Rules is coming. 0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:54.160 For an Emmy. 0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:58.200 They did a whole FYC event and they want to 0:17:58.240 --> 0:17:59.800 be considered for an Emmy. 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.280 So hold up, Evan, because we got to break this 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:05.200 down to my rain drops. Okay, just so you all 0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:09.520 know when it's time to so let me tell you 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:10.360 all what happened. 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:10.800 Okay. 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:14.120 So, when a show is nominated for an Emmy, there's 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:18.560 a campaign that the movie studios do, the television studios, 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:20.560 television networks, production companies. 0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:24.400 You campaign for your show, movie. 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:27.640 Et cetera, the actors whatever to be nominated. 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:29.560 Okay, it's a campaign. 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:35.160 You have to submit a nomination and the Television Academy 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:38.200 is a group of people in the industry and they 0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:40.879 have to vote for which ones can even make it 0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:46.359 in the nomination category then wins. So what FYC means 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:49.960 is for your consideration. So if you live in La Girl, 0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:52.040 go to Sunset Boulevard and you will see tons of 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:57.800 billboards with FYC because these studios are campaigning for an 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:01.480 Emmy nomination. Now, look, when it comes to reality TV, 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:06.480 unless you're Shark Tank, Rupe, Paul's Drag Race or Amazing Race, 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:11.080 you typically don't get nominated or even win an Emmy 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:14.840 in the docu series category, which is Vanda Pump Rules, Housewives, 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:18.679 et cetera. So Evan tell us what is happening with 0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:23.000 Vanda Pump Rules campaigning for Emmy nomination. 0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:27.000 I mean, they had a big FYC event. It was 0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:31.760 a panel discussion and this big like incredible party afterwards 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:33.880 to sort of like, I don't know, make the Emmy 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:37.800 voters fall in love with the series. And it was honestly, 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.040 it was incredible. Like Laala and Sheena showed up to 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:43.119 this party. They're taking pictures with Emmy voters, like you know, 0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:45.359 like they're like getting everyone excited. There was a whole 0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.679 a not about the pasta bar. They were like themed 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:50.560 cocktails like it. 0:19:50.560 --> 0:19:52.040 It was a whole thing. It was really really cool. 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:54.679 But before we got to the party, there was a 0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:58.640 panel between Alex Baskin, who's the executive producer, and Lisa 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:01.960 vander Pump and it was a conversation moderated by s 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:04.879 c Cup from CNN, And when s c cup was 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:09.520 asking about Sandoval, even on the panel, Lisa did, what, 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.360 you know, was kind of defending Tom, like she I'm 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:16.240 and I think that because maybe she's in business with him, 0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:20.440 is a reason why she defends him, because they've had 0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:25.080 like a decade plus relationship. Because what was so a 0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:30.560 little jarring was Lisa's defense of Tom and the empathy 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:34.040 that she has for him, juxtapose against the way she 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:38.720 talks about Raquel, who she even called Rachel at some point. 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:40.840 Like ever he got the fuck up? 0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:44.320 What yeah? Yeah, Like Lisa called her Rachel at one point. 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.119 So it's clear that Lisa, and you know, from what 0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:52.800 I see, has more respect for Sandoval than Raquel, which 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:56.359 is just so interesting. And apparently Raquel is off the grid. 0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.639 She's at the mental health facility. Lisa says she hasn't 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:02.240 heard from her since the union. I asked Alex Baskin 0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:04.879 if he had heard from Raquel, and he said he 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:08.320 hasn't heard from her directly, but he is getting updates 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:12.360 from her team, from her family who say she's doing well. 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:14.080 But I don't know if you saw now, the family 0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:16.879 is trying to get the FBI involved. They want FBI 0:21:16.920 --> 0:21:19.760 protection for Raquel because apparently she is getting tons of 0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:20.600 death threats. 0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:26.159 Yeah, like the FBI is getting plum what Yeah. 0:21:25.960 --> 0:21:31.160 Okay, Okay, So look, I have to say this, Bravo fans, 0:21:31.320 --> 0:21:36.280 Reality fans all, like all of even me and Evan included, 0:21:36.280 --> 0:21:38.720 we're still fans of the show. It's one thing to 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:41.840 have an opinion like we're having now, But you see 0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:44.720 the difference is we're not tearing Raquel down. 0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:46.080 We're having fun. 0:21:46.160 --> 0:21:50.679 We're laughing at obviously the moments within the show. You 0:21:50.760 --> 0:21:53.560 guys got to stop bullying people on social media. You 0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:56.159 can't sit up here and say mental health is important 0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:58.400 and you harassed and bully people. 0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:01.879 You can't. It doesn't go hand in hand. Listen, ra Kel. 0:22:01.760 --> 0:22:03.640 Made a miss I was about to say she made 0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:06.320 a mistake, but that's even like reaching So I'm not 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:07.760
