Speaker 1: Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
Speaker 1: I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
Speaker 1: favorite shows from the Real Housewives in Atlanta, New Jersey
Speaker 1: and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise and
Speaker 1: Bell Collective. Every episode, we recap reality television from the
Speaker 1: Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset, in
Speaker 1: addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or scripted.
Speaker 2: As well.
Speaker 3: Rain Drops. Yes, welcome to Reality with the King. You're
Speaker 3: number one source for all things reality television on and
Speaker 3: today we are going to recap in.
Speaker 2: The City finale.
Speaker 3: I must say I am quite sad that this show
Speaker 3: was going off. I was pleasantly surprised. Okay, let's have
Speaker 3: a real conversation. Y'all know I'm a Bravo guy. I
Speaker 3: love Bravo shows, right, I'm more of a Housewives person, duh.
Speaker 2: News flash. We all know that.
Speaker 3: I'm really not into other shows outside of Housewives.
Speaker 2: Ladies of London was great.
Speaker 3: I just did not find myself wanting because doesn't want
Speaker 3: to do this job. You have to have a want,
Speaker 3: a need, a desire to recap shows. It's one thing
Speaker 3: to watch it. Recapping takes a whole different energy, So
Speaker 3: Ladies of London, I didn't have the energy to recap it.
Speaker 2: I'm actually watching.
Speaker 3: This season, season two of Next Gen and Why, and
Speaker 3: I actually like it. But I can only watch it
Speaker 3: on a Saturday because it gives me Saved by the belties.
Speaker 3: So as a young boy, I would watch Say by
Speaker 3: the Bell on Saturdays because it came on Saturdays. Right,
Speaker 3: Next Gen n y C is pretty much Say by
Speaker 3: the Bell. Ava Dash is Lark Voorhees, Brooks is Zach.
Speaker 2: Morris. Are you'll following me here?
Speaker 3: No, seriously, I think that. Then you have Georgia, who
Speaker 3: to me is Jesse Just Spano, Spannel, right, just go Spano.
Speaker 3: Arianna Bierman is Kelly Kapowski, okay, and obviously Charlie is screeched,
Speaker 3: so that's yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Ava Dash is
Speaker 3: Lisa Turtle. I know, I say Lark boarhe'es. Let's go
Speaker 3: with characters. Ava Dash is Lisa Turtle. So that's that,
Speaker 3: and that ain't going nowhere, okay, So anyway, I may
Speaker 3: start recapping that now that in the city, Brody, look
Speaker 3: my dog is doing.
Speaker 2: Brody, what you're doing.
Speaker 3: My dog is even excited that I'm talking about Next
Speaker 3: Gen and y Okay, so.
Speaker 2: You may get that recap.
Speaker 3: Nonetheless, we are here to talk about In the City, my.
Speaker 2: New favorite show.
Speaker 3: Back to my point, I never watch an entire season
Speaker 3: of Summerhouse. I hopped on the bandwagon, admittedly, so when
Speaker 3: the scandal happened between Amanda West and Sierra and for me,
Speaker 3: I did not want to experience fomo fear of missing out,
Speaker 3: so I decided to do a deep dive, give the
Speaker 3: rain drop something to talk about. And I've been hooked
Speaker 3: too in the City, and I really do like this show.
Speaker 3: The show is actually really interesting and I am begging
Speaker 3: that they come back for a second season. So we
Speaker 3: are here to recap the season finale of the show. Okay,
Speaker 3: and we got to give it to Whitney. First of all,
Speaker 3: Whitney is like gorgeous.
Speaker 2: Supermodel gorgeous. She's tall, she's.
Speaker 3: Leggy, you could tell, she's very nice and very sweet.
Speaker 3: But baby, I did not know that Whitney had it
Speaker 3: in her to double down on her statements. So the
Speaker 3: episode starts off, they're in the separate cars. They're you know,
Speaker 3: they're going to their excursion and then this conversation, Whitney
Speaker 3: is doubling down that Lindsey uses the single mom card
Speaker 3: because when they got to the house, Lindsay said that
Speaker 3: she deserves to have her own room because she's a
Speaker 3: you know, she's a mom, and she wants to be
Speaker 3: able to enjoy herself because it's rare that they're able
Speaker 3: to be without their kids, right, So that's what Lindsay said.
Speaker 3: Georgina and her feels like, we're the moms, let's have it.
Speaker 3: Whitney doesn't like it, and Whitney shaded her in the car,
Speaker 3: not in front of her face, when she's like, look,
Speaker 3: she even has a nanny and thinks she's more important
Speaker 3: than all of us. That's Whitney's great. But the best
Speaker 3: part to me was when Whitney admitted that she is
Speaker 3: scared of Lindsey and so are the other girls. And
Speaker 3: that to me was a tell tale in terms of
Speaker 3: the bravery that Whitney had to speak up for herself
Speaker 3: because she really saw.
Speaker 2: Biased being displayed.
Speaker 3: Because I'm sure the other people felt that way, but
Speaker 3: no one is going to go up against as you
Speaker 3: all call her mother Herbert. It ain't happening at all,
Speaker 3: not today, not next week. It ain't happening. Lindsey runs
Speaker 3: the cast, Lindsey runs the show. Whitney is setting up
Speaker 3: for what's right, and in her mind, it is.
Speaker 2: This card that she feels Lindsey's playing.
Speaker 3: Now, look, I'm actually on Whitney's side. I do think
Speaker 3: Lindsay is playing the mom card. It's pretty obvious and
Speaker 3: will get to what really happened later where I'm like, look,
Speaker 3: she even admitted it.
Speaker 2: So Georgina, who.
Speaker 3: Georgina of this episode, was giving me laptog tease. Okay,
Speaker 3: she confronts Whitney as an all lighte on the bonfire,
Speaker 3: and she pretty much says that Lindsay is not playing
Speaker 3: the mom card and that Whitney is trying to dis
Speaker 3: single mothers and if she was a single mom then
Speaker 3: maybe she will understand what that feels like, which to
Speaker 3: me was definitely a low blow.
Speaker 2: It was a low blow, which is.
Speaker 3: Why Whitney said she is sick of everyone bombing down
Speaker 3: to Lindsay. And what Georgina was doing in this moment
Speaker 3: to me was she was proving Whitney's point because you
Speaker 3: are going harder for your girl than what she is
Speaker 3: at this present moment, it was.
Speaker 2: Giving, lap dog.
Speaker 3: I thought I was watching Housewives of Atlanta for a second,
Speaker 3: No shade, it was definitely giving. Lindsay is the Queen Bee,
Speaker 3: She's the star of the show. I'm on the show
Speaker 3: because of her. Therefore, I have her back. So to
Speaker 3: tell Whitney one day, I hope you have kids so
Speaker 3: that you can understand that was a mess up statement.
Speaker 2: Now, that was a low blow. And that's why I
Speaker 2: appreciate the fact that.
Speaker 3: Kenny really tried his best to have his girl's back
Speaker 3: without quote unquote getting in the women's business. Because for him,
Speaker 3: he's thinking and more like, my girl said what she said,
Speaker 3: and she meant it and I and she listened me
Speaker 3: so sweet. Although she's strong enough to defend herself, Kenny
Speaker 3: knows his friends, and he knows that he has to
Speaker 3: help her, and that's what he did. And Georgina knew
Speaker 3: what she said was so effed up, which is why
Speaker 3: she got up and left. And that's when Whitney said
Speaker 3: that she felt truly that Lindsey could have been a
Speaker 3: better friend to Evond like that's her biggest issue. And
Speaker 3: as Georgina's walking away, she then says, you both don't
Speaker 3: like women as a couple. And that's when Georgina is
Speaker 3: a bona fide Karen, because what the fuck was that
Speaker 3: you were losing this game being a lap dog. You
Speaker 3: was huffing a puffet and the roof blew down. You
Speaker 3: need a harness, you have four legs. You're at the
Speaker 3: wrong park. You need to be at a doggy park.
Speaker 2: You shit it on.
Speaker 3: Yourself by embarrassing yourself as well. So to say that
Speaker 3: they don't like women, that is what we call gas lighting, Karen,
Speaker 3: behavior microaggressions. Georgina failed the assignment.
Speaker 2: To go that low.
Speaker 3: Let me know that Georgina does not have what it
Speaker 3: takes to have an intelligent conversation because you have to
Speaker 3: be an intelligent person to do so.
Speaker 2: Now I'm not calling her dumb or stupid.
Speaker 3: I will never do that, But what I am saying
Speaker 3: she doesn't have the intelligence, the emotional intelligence.
Speaker 2: Let me be very clear what I'm saying. I'm not
Speaker 2: saying BookSmart wise.
Speaker 3: I'm saying Georgina lacks emotional intelligence to have a conversation
Speaker 3: without going low.
Speaker 2: As it said, they don't like women.
Speaker 3: Just because they called the obvious, which is your girl,
Speaker 3: Lindsey definitely was using the single mom card. And on
Speaker 3: top of that, Lindsey was And again I don't know
Speaker 3: the history between Lindsay and Yvonne because this is the
Speaker 3: first season of the show, but from what I've seen
Speaker 3: Team Yvonne, Lindsey was not being a good friend to
Speaker 3: Yvonne at her wedding dinner party.
Speaker 2: She just wasn't.
Speaker 3: Now, granted, Lindsey was making great television and I'm here
Speaker 3: for it, but it was at the expense of her
Speaker 3: friend's dinner. And that's when you have to say, girl,
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I was trying to like get my point across,
Speaker 3: and I was say on the side, look, bitch, I'm
Speaker 3: trying to make good TV so that we can get
Speaker 3: a second season. And I think Yvonne would have been like, fine,
Speaker 3: because I want a second season too, right. So then
Speaker 3: they go back home and at this point they're in
Speaker 3: the kitchen, and so funny because Lindsay's in the kitchen,
Speaker 3: she's being downloaded. What happens Amanda exits stage left. She
Speaker 3: does not want to be part of the conversation. Whinnie
Speaker 3: walks in and look to Whitney's defense, she stood on
Speaker 3: business and if she never told me she was scared
Speaker 3: of Lindsay.
Speaker 2: I would have never thought that because she didn't give
Speaker 2: me she was scared of her vibes. I didn't get
Speaker 2: that at all.
Speaker 3: She stood there like, okay, let's figure this out. Okay,
Speaker 3: let's figure this out. And she tells her like, look,
Speaker 3: you said what you said, Like, it is what you said.
Speaker 3: You said that because you are mother, you deserve the room.
Speaker 3: And I feel like that's.
Speaker 2: You using a single mom card.
Speaker 3: And Lindsay's like, I never said single mom, and she
Speaker 3: was like, you said mom. And at this point, Lindsey's
Speaker 3: fighting to win the game of semantics because the key
Speaker 3: takeaway was you are using that, okay, but the part
Speaker 3: that gaged me. Lindsey agrees with it eventually and said
Speaker 3: that I'm mad that you said it. Then Lexi, who
Speaker 3: was quiet the whole moment because she's the one that
Speaker 3: took the bone, and went back to her boss, her
Speaker 3: master Lindsey and told her what Whitney said. And in
Speaker 3: this moment she's being another laptop too. Then you have
Speaker 3: Gavin telling Lindsey she did nothing wrong and baby, in
Speaker 3: the worst of Portie Gavin.
Speaker 2: Wrong road, wrong road.
Speaker 3: So then Kenny obviously is at Gavin because he's like,
Speaker 3: why are you trying to create more smoke when this
Speaker 3: has nothing to do with you? And Whitney and Lindsey
Speaker 3: on the verge of apologizing to each other. So then
Speaker 3: Whitney apologizes to Georgina. Gavin is still talking about the shit.
Speaker 3: Winnie tells him to shut up, she's sick of him.
Speaker 3: The boys get into it, they have to go outside,
Speaker 3: and that's when it's sort of rebuild that look. Kenny
Speaker 3: tells Gavin that he feels like he's chopping him off
Speaker 3: at the knees, and Gavin in that moment, to me,
Speaker 3: he felt like, look, I'm trying to make good television
Speaker 3: as well, because Lindsey.
Speaker 2: Is also my boss in this situation.
Speaker 3: But I think Gavin knew that he was doing too much,
Speaker 3: which is why he broke down and cried and told Ca,
Speaker 3: you're like a brother to me, and I don't even
Speaker 3: have a brother. And that's when the two guys hugged
Speaker 3: it out and really understood that this petty bullshit is
Speaker 3: beneath them and that's why I love Kenny, which, by
Speaker 3: the way, I keep saying this over and over again.
Speaker 2: Kenny with that card again. The open up White Ox
Speaker 2: for shirt the fitted cap.
Speaker 3: Kenny may be one of the baddest on Bravo.
Speaker 2: Let's have a real conversation. Kenny is one.
Speaker 3: Of the badsis on Bravo, the baddest. I'm just saying,
Speaker 3: let's have a real conversation. It is not even up
Speaker 3: for did bait okay?
Speaker 2: Let me move on.
Speaker 3: So at the friends giving dinner, Danielle asked lindsay if
Speaker 3: they are moving forward or is it residual resentment from
Speaker 3: the past. They decided to get over it, so it
Speaker 3: was good. The Friendsgiving ended with everybody coming together. Then
Speaker 3: a car came up that said two months later. And
Speaker 3: then we're getting into the current situation of Amanda and
Speaker 3: West drama. There's a one on one scene between Kyle
Speaker 3: and Amanda. Kyle tells Amanda, you point blank lied to
Speaker 3: me about West, and his point was, you complain to
Speaker 3: me by my behavior going off partying, drinking, and he
Speaker 3: said that West rageous three times more than he does,
Speaker 3: which to me shows that Amanda has a type.
Speaker 2: Amanda is like that.
Speaker 3: Wounded bird that you see in the parking lot at
Speaker 3: Walmart and you try not to step over it or
Speaker 3: drive over it. Because you feel bad for the wounded
Speaker 3: bird and you hope that one day they have enough.
Speaker 2: Enough strength to walk.
Speaker 3: On their own two ways, just saying that's how you feel, right.
Speaker 3: Amanda likes a bad boy, which is why she stayed
Speaker 3: with Kyle throughout all of his cheating and hanging out
Speaker 3: and drinking and everything else, only to be in another
Speaker 3: relationship with the guy who does the same thing. So
Speaker 3: Kyle made a good point there, But one thing he
Speaker 3: said was when they both released a joint statement, which
Speaker 3: to me, I will still stand by this case and
Speaker 3: our girlfriend to the show Blewe to lucimclocked it when
Speaker 3: she's said that. The reason why Amanda rushed Kyle to
Speaker 3: approve the joint statement they released on Instagram is because
Speaker 3: she was already messing with Wes and she wanted to
Speaker 3: make sure that the overlap did not extend more than
Speaker 3: a few weeks.
Speaker 2: That's why it was a sense of urgency and the
Speaker 2: fact that.
Speaker 3: Kyle asked Amanda about their situation only for her to
Speaker 3: lie to him.
Speaker 2: Blue was right. So in this moment, Amanda's.
Speaker 3: Being vulnerable talking about the fear she has going outside
Speaker 3: because you know, look, she at this moment is one
Speaker 3: of the most hated women on television, and I would
Speaker 3: go as far as to say probably the most hated
Speaker 3: woman on television reality at that. And she's afraid that
Speaker 3: somebody's going to stop from the street and yell at
Speaker 3: her and look all drops aside.
Speaker 2: That is a real feeling, and I do feel bad
Speaker 2: for her for that.
Speaker 3: Yes, she did something wrong, but no one should be
Speaker 3: subjected to being afraid of walking down the street without
Speaker 3: being confronted by strangers. She does not deserve that shade
Speaker 3: her on social media all good, but in person, I
Speaker 3: do believe in protecting someone's personal space. But the person
Speaker 3: who is benefitting from all of this is Kyle, who
Speaker 3: said that people have really been supporting his company Lover
Speaker 3: or Boy, and Amanda said, yeah, they're supporting it because
Speaker 3: they hate me so much.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's true, that's true. That is true.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm supporting Love of Boy because I am one,
Speaker 3: but I'm supporting it too because hey, that's what we do,
Speaker 3: is consumers. We support the ones we feel needs the support,
Speaker 3: and in this case, Kyle and Sierra needs it the most.
Speaker 3: But then while they were talking, Amanda just Amanda doesn't
Speaker 3: seem present.
Speaker 2: I don't know if she is also.
Speaker 3: Emotionally unavailable, but she kind of seems a bit stoic,
Speaker 3: and when she made the joke that they could possibly
Speaker 3: go out on double date with Sally and Kyle, I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 2: Amanda just looks completely soulless to me. I don't I
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 3: And then in current time, her and West are on
Speaker 3: TikTok going grocery shopping to try to play up the
Speaker 3: pregnancy rumors.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's corny and I'm just not I'm
Speaker 2: not here for it. I'm just not.
Speaker 3: But I am here for the upcoming two part reunion
Speaker 3: of In the City and we will be recapping that.
Speaker 2: So rain Drops.
Speaker 3: If you haven't watched In the City, I do encourage
Speaker 3: all to binge it.
Speaker 2: It's a really really, really really really good show.
Speaker 3: Kenny, Gavin, Lindsay, Kyle, Amanda, they are carrying this season.
Speaker 2: So I encourage you all to watch. It is really
Speaker 2: damn good.
