Speaker 1: Two teas in a pod which Teddy Mellencamp and Cam
Speaker 1: Ridge edge.
Speaker 2: Hi guys, we are back with another episode of squat
Speaker 2: splashback Real Housewives of Orange County Season two, episodes three
Speaker 2: and four. You can watch along with us, or you
Speaker 2: can just probably listen to us, because our recaps are
Speaker 2: probably better than the show.
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 2: I mean, uh, this one's called watch Out, Bitches, and
Speaker 2: it aired January thirtieth, two thousand and seven. Joe continues
Speaker 2: to party into the wee hours, and Slade isn't pleased.
Speaker 2: Laurie buys a conservative black dress for a Republican fundraiser
Speaker 2: she is attending with George, and Gina tries to instill
Speaker 2: money saving values in her daughter Kara, while Tammy's youngest
Speaker 2: daughter Lindsay is still troubled by the divorce and pines
Speaker 2: over the law of her trust fund. I mean, that's
Speaker 2: a lot of shit going down, a.
Speaker 3: Lot of shit, I know. So this episode we find
Speaker 3: out that Laurie is now engaged to George, and like
Speaker 3: we said last week, they're still married, still happily married,
Speaker 3: still living in the same house. We saw her at
Speaker 3: Bravo Con. You did not see her though.
Speaker 2: Vicky was one of the first people Laurie called about
Speaker 2: her engagement. Vicky is worried about Lourie because she is
Speaker 2: forty five, been married twice, and is now getting into
Speaker 2: another commitment.
Speaker 3: I have a question.
Speaker 2: Vicky worried about Laura.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have the same question. Worried or jealous? Jealous?
Speaker 3: She had mentioned many times that she was jealous of
Speaker 3: her relationship Laurie's relationship with George. I mean, I don't
Speaker 3: know what she'd be worried about. George wasn't a player,
Speaker 3: he wasn't a criminal, he wasn't a bad guy. He's
Speaker 3: actually a really good guy.
Speaker 2: And it's not like the show was so successful at
Speaker 2: the time that I think meant other than Slade. I
Speaker 2: don't think that men were like trying to get onto
Speaker 2: the show avidly. Like I think George, no, you.
Speaker 3: Will see to come. He's not exactly one that enjoyed
Speaker 3: being on the show.
Speaker 2: And I don't even remember if this was from this
Speaker 2: episode or the one right after. But seeing George and
Speaker 2: Laurie riding together on the horse, like, you can tell
Speaker 2: they have general I mean, you can tell they have
Speaker 2: the same interests and they love doing things together. But
Speaker 2: when there, when she's getting ready for her dinner for
Speaker 2: Mitt Robney, the governor of Massachusetts and possible Republican presidential candidate,
Speaker 2: and then she goes, I mean a year ago, it
Speaker 2: was getting ready for the Playboy mansion. What a difference
Speaker 2: a year?
Speaker 3: What a difference your megs, Glorie Saints, she vets Republican
Speaker 3: only because that's how she was raised, but she doesn't
Speaker 3: even know what that means.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm also curious what year did Vicky
Speaker 2: start talking to Brooks during this time period?
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yeah, so a little bit of hypocrite there,
Speaker 3: a little bit.
Speaker 2: Then we get into Gina, who has four houses, which
Speaker 2: I was gonna as looking at those four houses, one
Speaker 2: of those kids is getting dicked.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think those those houses were for the kids.
Speaker 3: Let's just put that stray right, Let's just make that clear.
Speaker 3: I think she was in real estate. She bought. It's
Speaker 3: like me saying, this house I'm been in Big Bear
Speaker 3: that I just second house. I bought.
Speaker 2: This is for Ryan.
Speaker 3: No, maybe one day when I die, but no, but
Speaker 3: it's I think that's what she's saying. She had rental
Speaker 3: houses and she's.
Speaker 2: Actually bought houses that she was renting out. Yes, but
Speaker 2: she said they have a two bedroom condo for Colton,
Speaker 2: a house in Irvine for Shane, and a house on
Speaker 2: the golf course for Kara. Colton once again getting dicked.
Speaker 2: But then Gina says, Kara has been shopping like crazy
Speaker 2: for the past six month, buying twenty five hundred dollars
Speaker 2: worth of purses.
Speaker 3: I that's because that's because at that time, the children
Speaker 3: on Housewives Over eighteen made a lot of money.
Speaker 2: Oh, because I was confused because they were talking about
Speaker 2: this modeling job. But then they didn't do any flashbacks
Speaker 2: of yeah, Bara modeling, So okay, yeah got paid that.
Speaker 3: They got paid a lot of money back.
Speaker 2: So did the husbands get paid?
Speaker 3: Them to Joe? Only kids over eighteen?
Speaker 2: But Karl was in eighteen, wasn't she held with She? No,
Speaker 2: she was still in high school. Hmm, who knows.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I thought she was eighteen, but you're right,
Speaker 3: she was still in high school.
Speaker 2: Well, then we see Joe out with her girlfriends in
Speaker 2: La Slade calls Joe but gets her voicemail. Slade says,
Speaker 2: Joe misses opportunities to be with him and his kids
Speaker 2: when she's out drinking and then she sleeps out. You
Speaker 2: can tell she's still like, not tipsy, but you know
Speaker 2: when you're hungover anxiety. Yeah, like her eyes are glazed over.
Speaker 3: Ye yes, yes, yes, yes, so definitely. I mean Joe
Speaker 3: is so definitely at the end and gives zero f's
Speaker 3: about Slade. You could just tell. And by the way,
Speaker 3: does anybody else to slave remind you of Jack's No?
Speaker 2: What it was reminding me of watching the whole cookie
Speaker 2: baking scene was Nick and Jessica Simpson, like when the
Speaker 2: Chicken of the Sea. Like I was like, come on,
Speaker 2: I've talked to Joe. She's pretty, seems pretty with it.
Speaker 3: She's pretty smart, and I mean to be especially to
Speaker 3: be a loan officer. I really do feel like Joe
Speaker 3: was acting. She was trying to act dumb. Every time
Speaker 3: her and Slade were together, they both looked like they
Speaker 3: were acting. And it's also comes across very well.
Speaker 2: I have a question. There are times when I don't
Speaker 2: have certain things in my fridge, but my general thoughts, yeah,
Speaker 2: my staples are butter it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the fact that he's like Joe, I bet you
Speaker 2: didn't even think about the fact I'm like, well, most
Speaker 2: of the time. I'm not running low on butter right.
Speaker 3: And it's not like she was funny because she's like,
Speaker 3: I've never picked before. I'm like, it's not like you're
Speaker 3: baking some scratch, you're picking out of a bag. I
Speaker 3: don't know. Oh, it was just a lot.
Speaker 2: But then Tammy met Lou when she was eighteen and
Speaker 2: got married at twenty one. Tammy says they had a
Speaker 2: great life until our husband's affair and then his company
Speaker 2: went bankrupt and they lost everything. This is where I
Speaker 2: need additional information. Yes, did the affair have something to
Speaker 2: do with the bankruptcy or these are two separate life
Speaker 2: you know?
Speaker 3: You know what?
Speaker 2: I don't really know.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I came on as Tammy was kind
Speaker 3: of coming out. I think she was only on for
Speaker 3: one season. Lou, I mean, you're gonna see a lot.
Speaker 3: I don't want to spoil it for you. He's very
Speaker 3: involved in the show coming up, and then well, I
Speaker 3: will spoil it for you. Then he passes away.
Speaker 2: Well, then Tammy says, Lindsay has been very lost and
Speaker 2: needs her dad to help guide her. Lou used to
Speaker 2: tell Lindsay to marry rich, but since he lost about
Speaker 2: three hundred and eighty million dollars.
Speaker 3: How do you lose three hundred and eighty million dollars
Speaker 3: and not just keep, you know, a couple of it around.
Speaker 2: I mean, at least eighty million, you could keep around.
Speaker 3: Eighty millillion that I know. That's crazy. I had no
Speaker 3: idea they were that rich.
Speaker 2: I mean I once lost five dollars and I was
Speaker 2: stressed about it for weeks.
Speaker 3: I lost five hundred thousand dollars and didn't make me happy.
Speaker 3: I was shocked. They obviously know who the owner is
Speaker 3: of the new house because they were able to walk
Speaker 3: through it the outside, the front of the gates, and
Speaker 3: that was a little shocking to me.
Speaker 2: Then we get to Slade planned a surprise weekend for
Speaker 2: Joe That's sorry spoiler alert that she hated I know,
Speaker 2: and Slade jokingly asked how the baby is. Joe is
Speaker 2: bothered that Slade is joking that she's pregnant because it
Speaker 2: makes her feel like she needs to lose weight. Slade
Speaker 2: says he's joking, but it is what motivates her to
Speaker 2: go to the gym.
Speaker 3: Slade said, Josh, but you know what I thought it
Speaker 3: was because she had on like a baby doll shirt,
Speaker 3: so you know, it looked kind of like the old
Speaker 3: style pregnancy shirt. So I thought that's why he was
Speaker 3: saying that. But then when he came out with well
Speaker 3: that motivates her go to the gym, then I thought, okay,
Speaker 3: you're just being a douche.
Speaker 2: And then on the road, Joe says she but I
Speaker 2: will tell you Slade has a history of joking and
Speaker 2: making comments about women's weight.
Speaker 3: He made fun of me saying I look like the
Speaker 3: Michelin man in a bathing suit. He made fun of
Speaker 3: Vicky's no, he's calling her miss Piggy. So this is
Speaker 3: he was the one that says yes, he told yeah,
Speaker 3: I tol lydia she needs to eat a cheeseburger on
Speaker 3: the show, so he's got you know.
Speaker 2: Slade is just perfect, so he can comment on everybody, supposedly,
Speaker 2: but even on the road, she says she wants something sweet.
Speaker 2: This is supposedly her surprise birthday weekend, and Slade says
Speaker 2: it's the baby and Joe tells him to shut up.
Speaker 2: Slade then says, let's go buy a test. They get
Speaker 2: their blah blah blah. The day it was boring. She
Speaker 2: wanted mimosas he didn't even have those for her. Then,
Speaker 2: Brianna and Colby are going away to Chicago for the
Speaker 2: first time alone together. Vicky already set it up so
Speaker 2: Briann and Colby could not be sleeping in the same room. This,
Speaker 2: I mean, my dad had this rule for me and
Speaker 2: Edwin as well, that any time until we were married,
Speaker 2: we couldn't sleep in the same room. Yeah, I'm like, Dad,
Speaker 2: you realize we lived together in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that is ridiculous.
Speaker 2: But then Vicky continuing to talk about Brianna and the
Speaker 2: BIX and and the suffer the consequences if she has
Speaker 2: sex with Colby and her morals. But then, but then
Speaker 2: then she had Brooks on the side.
Speaker 3: But you know what, Vicky, but she also the Bible
Speaker 3: frowns upon cheating.
Speaker 2: But then not just that, But then Vicky said, I
Speaker 2: mean I didn't follow these own rules myself, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: Like and listen, I'm not saying in high school you
Speaker 2: should be having sex, but I think you should be
Speaker 2: also teaching your children about safe safety.
Speaker 3: How about Vicky giving Michael a haircut and she went
Speaker 3: to beauty school and Michael's just like so annoyed by her,
Speaker 3: Michael just tunes her out.
Speaker 2: She asks him so many questions, and I mean, I
Speaker 2: feel like sometimes I can be that way where I
Speaker 2: ask my kids a million questions and they're not listening
Speaker 2: to me, and they're not answering. So in those moments.
Speaker 3: Where their kids are little, their kids are little, this
Speaker 3: is a nineteen year old kid where you're going, what
Speaker 3: are you doing?
Speaker 2: Why are you going there?
Speaker 3: It's like, shut up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot. But then Vicky and Don take
Speaker 2: a trip to lake have a suit. Vicky says she
Speaker 2: cuts loose and has fun and have a sue. She
Speaker 2: can be herself and not be judged. Vicky says, they
Speaker 2: call each other the higher class white trash. I mean
Speaker 2: white trash. Vicky actually seems like fun compared to the
Speaker 2: one that I come into contact with. We end and
Speaker 2: have a sue and we get right into relationships. Are
Speaker 2: better than your head. This is the episode four Joe
Speaker 2: is Her Name is At the beginning of everything one,
Speaker 2: Joe struggles with her new independence and the pull of
Speaker 2: her relationship with Slade, Gina, Joe, Laurie, and Vicki attend
Speaker 2: the Orange County Home and Garden expo, where unresolved tension
Speaker 2: between Joe and Laurie caused by Laurie's relationship with Slade
Speaker 2: comes to a head.
Speaker 3: Well, where they were hometown celebrities. You see that everybody
Speaker 3: wanted taking a picture with them at the Orange County
Speaker 3: Home and Garden Expo right there in Anaheim.
Speaker 2: But before we get there, Colby's dog had puppies, and
Speaker 2: Brianna asked if she could have one of the puppies,
Speaker 2: but Vicky and Don said no. Vicky agrees to keep
Speaker 2: the dog, and Don is not happy. I'm like, at
Speaker 2: this point, Don is very rarely happy unless he's tipsy
Speaker 2: and have a sue right, and Vicky's talking to someone
Speaker 2: else it.
Speaker 3: Could you imagine that? Could you imagine being married to that?
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say anything about that, but uh,
Speaker 2: Brionna feeling too afraid to let her parents know that, well,
Speaker 2: letting Don and Vicky know that her dorm wasn't going
Speaker 2: to take the dog until after they had the dog,
Speaker 2: even though she'd found out a way.
Speaker 3: She wasn't even in a dorm. She was in an
Speaker 3: apartment in Azusa, So she was in her own apartment.
Speaker 3: Don't you think that she should have looked for apartment
Speaker 3: that takes dogs. Well.
Speaker 2: I also want to know why Vicky couldn't fill up
Speaker 2: her own car with gas. I mean, granted, I don't
Speaker 2: even drive, but when I do drive, if my car
Speaker 2: is on empty, I can take it to the guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can take it to I don't know.
Speaker 2: Then Joe gets a job offered to be the official
Speaker 2: tighter title rep for the Beverly Hills Territory. Joe doesn't wait,
Speaker 2: can we go back to the dog thing? Yes?
Speaker 3: So I had to laugh at Don's comment when Vicky's like,
Speaker 3: I'm okay with it, Don's okay with it? And Don goes, no,
Speaker 3: Don got hosed.
Speaker 2: Don used to say that all the time. Yeah, Vicky
Speaker 2: just hosed me. Hosed me, Don. You could tell Don
Speaker 2: he's the level of checked out is like me watching
Speaker 2: Raal Housewives of Potomac right now. It's like, you know,
Speaker 2: after they split up.
Speaker 3: I Vicky had me call him once and I had
Speaker 3: him on speaker. I'm like, hey, Don, any chance you
Speaker 3: and Vicky can get back together? He goes, yeah, when
Speaker 3: monkeys fly out of my asshole.
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought he was telling us there was a chance.
Speaker 3: Now're saying there's a chance.
Speaker 2: No, he ran fast, fast, well, not as fast as
Speaker 2: Joe is wanting to run to Beverly Hills. I think
Speaker 2: Joe doesn't want Slade to buy her a condo because
Speaker 2: she doesn't because when he enties to him like, no,
Speaker 2: I don't want you coming to drop in whenever you
Speaker 2: feel like it. I'd rather live in a studio apartment
Speaker 2: with my best friend than live in a nice condo
Speaker 2: that you could have potentially bought me. Yeah, then Joe
Speaker 2: is going to see Gina for advice. Joe says if
Speaker 2: she leaves, she doesn't know what will happen to her Enslade.
Speaker 2: Gina says her husband travels six months out of the year.
Speaker 2: It's not like she can visit on the weekends, Shane
Speaker 2: comes and sits with them. Gina says Joe and Shane
Speaker 2: have a strange relationship. Joe asked Shane's plans for the weekend.
Speaker 2: He said he was going out of town, but then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, he wasn't out of town. And
Speaker 2: Joe says Shane is are tight, but she couldn't date
Speaker 2: him because of MoMA. Gina, I think.
Speaker 3: They did date.
Speaker 2: Do you think they dated or they think.
Speaker 3: I think they probably hooked up, but Joe leaving Sleigh
Speaker 3: was probably the best decision she could ever, ever, ever make.
Speaker 2: Well, do you think that Joe actually went to Gina
Speaker 2: for advice or a chance to flirt with Shane?
Speaker 3: A chance to float with Shane?
Speaker 2: Okay, Then the ladies are taking a limo to the
Speaker 2: Home and Garden show at the Expo Center. Laurie asked
Speaker 2: Joe where her ring is and she says, they're not engaged.
Speaker 2: How did Laurie not know they were not? So? Did
Speaker 2: they get back together and then just never put the
Speaker 2: ring back on? In that ring?
Speaker 3: The ring was not real. Joe was on the podcasts
Speaker 3: early on and she said the ring was not real.
Speaker 2: Well, then Joe tells Laurie she doesn't want to know
Speaker 2: what happened with Slade, and she's moved on, And then
Speaker 2: Laurie Loy's like, no, I'm not letting you think I'm
Speaker 2: the bad guy here. Laurie says she did not initiate
Speaker 2: the relationship. Slade pursued her for two weeks before I
Speaker 2: love that. It's like two weeks. She's gonna be like
Speaker 2: two and a half years.
Speaker 3: It's before I gave in.
Speaker 2: But a whole whole six text messagers and I was ready.
Speaker 2: Slade pursued her for two weeks before she agreed to
Speaker 2: go out. Joe says Slade is a liar and she
Speaker 2: feels completely betrayed. I believe what Laurie saying. I don't
Speaker 2: think she has any reason to lie about this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm sure Slade made it seem that
Speaker 3: Laurie was the one who came for him, because that's
Speaker 3: what he does. He loved to be part of the show.
Speaker 3: He knew if Joe is off the show, because she
Speaker 3: is off the show after the season. I believe. And
Speaker 3: you know, there's a reason why Andy used to call
Speaker 3: him the sixth housewife.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But then they're out and one of Joe's friend
Speaker 2: to ask Shane what his intentions are with Joe. Shane says,
Speaker 2: that's a better question to ask Joe. It's making me,
Speaker 2: it's giving me like we're already making out vibes. But
Speaker 2: either way, Joe jokingly asked Shane if he wants to
Speaker 2: go home with her. Joe calls Slade and tells him
Speaker 2: that Shane is going to drive her home. Slade is
Speaker 2: not thrilled with this, clearly and it's three in the
Speaker 2: morning and whenever Joe's drunk. Fish.
Speaker 3: Okay, well this is just in. When she was on
Speaker 3: our podcast, she basically said they just kissed at that
Speaker 3: point in time. At that point in time, yeah, okay,
Speaker 3: she was on prior she said. Ever.
Speaker 2: Oh ever, it may have been when she after she
Speaker 2: broke up with Slade officially, or it may have been now.
Speaker 2: We don't know.
Speaker 3: But I think.
Speaker 2: This entire thing is just a big, huge red flag.
Speaker 2: But we'll continue on to Slade's disgusting comment that I
Speaker 2: can't even deal with. That haunts me in my nightmares.
Speaker 2: But first we get to Lou taking Megan to get
Speaker 2: her nose job. Megan has wanted one for years now
Speaker 2: that she's twenty one. The hardest part for me to
Speaker 2: stomach is after the nose job, the doctory goes, now,
Speaker 2: your nose looks just like your mom's.
Speaker 3: I know, well, obviously Tammy got a nose job, but
Speaker 3: I thought it was very weird that he was doing
Speaker 3: surgery and everybody was allowed to come in during thegery.
Speaker 3: It's not sanitary.
Speaker 2: Yeah, does anyone in their mother just come on in?
Speaker 3: Vicki takes her daughter to college. She drives it at
Speaker 3: ZUSA to get her started, and she's in the car,
Speaker 3: and just the racial slurs she was making about her
Speaker 3: own client to me was like, what the hell these
Speaker 3: are your clients that are going to see this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I can't understand why she would think that
Speaker 2: that was okay to say.
Speaker 3: I know it was bad too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on now, I'm on.
Speaker 3: Nowadays she would have been canceled.
Speaker 2: Yeah, nowadays, you're out. You're Then Joe tells Slade that
Speaker 2: she took a job and Beverly Hill's Joe asked if
Speaker 2: he's mad. Slade says no, it's a good thing for her,
Speaker 2: and then he whispers, you don't get here.
Speaker 3: That was so weird.
Speaker 2: That was like, I see dead people like he's he's
Speaker 2: done creepy things. But him whispering you don't here shivers
Speaker 2: down my spine. Also, Joe almost didn't seem like seemed
Speaker 2: like in the confessional she didn't think it was mean
Speaker 2: that he did it, like because she's probably so used
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 3: Of his comments like that.
Speaker 2: It was disgussed, like, I I he's ugh, and I
Speaker 2: just want to be like the fact that he me
Speaker 2: thinking knowing what I know now, the fact that I
Speaker 2: know he's Scretchen, and the fact that I'm going to
Speaker 2: see him on the show without Joe, with somebody else
Speaker 2: and me having to wonder if he's going to act
Speaker 2: the same way is it's giving me the a I know,
Speaker 2: I ick and I didn't. I remember, I've given him
Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt before, and now that I'm,
Speaker 2: you know, into season two, I am so icked out.
Speaker 2: He may be my last choice of any housewife, husband
Speaker 2: or boyfriend or whatever.
Speaker 3: I think it was your I think it was your
Speaker 3: first choice that on the stage in San Francisco.
Speaker 2: I know, I don't.
Speaker 3: Think so I can't remember what my options were.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, the guys, well keep on tuning in
Speaker 2: and make sure that you listen to all of our
Speaker 2: other pods.
