Not the book that we 28 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: just d read a Monday morning and woke up on 29 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: the rung side of the bed. Oh what I said, 30 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: I got a book tree. I did read this book 31 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: today and then I took a uber to the studio. Um, okay, 32 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: and here's what I'm gonna say, And we can cut 33 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: this part out and people think it's missangynous, but I's 34 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: I do think women can drive, and I think that 35 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: women aren't good drivers. But I do think sometimes because 36 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: traditionally in society, men are meant to like take pride 37 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: in their driving, and so like men will be a 38 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: little bit more finessey with the pedals, and sometimes women 39 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: might be a little bit jerkier with their pedal work, 40 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: which can lead to nauseating experiences for the passengers. They're 41 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: not as defensive drivers. They're just like not a really 42 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: put as much effort into like what's happening with the feet. Well, 43 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: I'm talking about straight women when I say this. Yeah, 44 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: in other cities, though, I think women are better drivers 45 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: than New York. Yeah, that's true. I mean New York 46 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: is kind of a not great driver city. No, it's 47 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: because where it's like, what are you doing? Like everyone 48 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: is everyone's a bad drive? Because it's not. Really it's 49 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: a walking city, one of the few. As I said before, 50 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: it's a city for flanners. Speaking of flanners, today we 51 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: are talking about one of the Upper East sides most 52 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: notorious bon vivants, woman of the town, businesswoman, restaurant lover, 53 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: sexual being, but also kind of prude, body positive, question mark, 54 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: charitable icon philanthropists, republican star of the Home Shopping Network, 55 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: and star of a little show called Real Housewives in 56 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: New York City. Were, of course, are talking about none 57 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: of them, Ramona Singer and her book Life on the 58 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: Roma Coaster Genius title. So we have been really just 59 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: circling the housewives and staying away. Well, yeah, I think 60 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: that typically on the show, we have avoided the more 61 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: obvious celebrity, celebrities that may be sorry, we're so Indian, Yeah, 62 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: we're Indie. We read books like Ulysses s. Grant and 63 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: Lauren conrad Um. We not necessarily go for the just 64 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: like super obvious gay because you know, let's let's be honest. Okay, 65 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: there's a lot of housewife coverage, housewife culture out there 66 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: in the gay and extended gay media universe, the girls 67 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: in gay space, yeah, I call it, and we didn't 68 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: necessarily want to step on add to this huge bucket 69 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: housewife content. There's absolute trough of housewives content that's out there, 70 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: you know, and I know some of you out there, 71 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: so you know, what are you gonna do? Bethany, Like, 72 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Every day I get a 73 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: message saying why don't you do Bethanae? Truly, and we 74 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: thought about that. When I say every day I look 75 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: in the mirror and I see Bethanie. I don't know 76 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: if I need to beat her, And it's like, right, 77 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: she's such a part of us. I'll say this.

Well, I was watching 170 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: also this episode the first season, which is also very 171 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,599 Speaker 1: like me were Bethany is giving her business advice and 172 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: she's having like galls over to try her new skincare line. 173 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: So Mario Mario's line of jewelry is called like true Faith, 174 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: and it's like cheap Cross. It's just cross necklaces and 175 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: the cross areans. Yeah, and so then she starts a 176 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: line of true skincare, but all the truths are spelled differently, 177 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: and Bethany is like Ramona, look, I know one thing 178 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: in business, and sorry if I'm being to push you 179 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: right now, but you need to have like a cohesive word. 180 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: You can't say true hand cream and it was like 181 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: tru r. And then it was like the serum was 182 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: like true and then the true faith was the jewelry 183 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: line and they were connected, but not She's just kind 184 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: of ignoring. It's just not computing for her at all. 185 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: Bethany also like continually criticizes Ramona for her possess is 186 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: being completely fake. So they get in this huge fight, 187 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: as you know, as fans of the show know in 188 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: season eight or nine, where like Ramona's launching this other 189 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: skincare line called Ageless by Ramona that does not exist, 190 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Like if you try to find its, like on Amazon anywhere, 191 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: you cannot buy Ageless. And like sometimes on the show, 192 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: like they'll be like Ramona will be pretending to use 193 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: it and it'll just be like a box, but you 194 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: never see like the bottle or the cream like actually 195 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: come out. She's like, I'm busy using my age just 196 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 1: by Ramona, like on our on our trip, and I 197 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: love it and that's why it looks so good and 198 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: Ageless it's perfect and it works, and I don't know 199 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: why everyone doesn't love it. So she has this launch 200 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: and Bethia doesn't come to the ageless launch, and like 201 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: and ramotas and things like Bethany pretends to support women, 202 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: but she doesn't support women. And then Bethany is just like, 203 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm sick of the fake businesses. I'm sick of the 204 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: fake products. I won't go. And it's like, I mean, 205 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: I guess the wine did launch sounds like the wine 206 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: does much better. But she is constant launching these like 207 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: faux businesses that like don't really exist, right, Like I 208 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: think there's like two and again, that's why she breaks 209 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: down like at so many points in this book is 210 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: because she's like, I'm running too many businesses. And at 211 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: one point she's running herself so ragged with Giggio and 212 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: the skincare and her marriage. When she lies down on 213 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: the couch at the store, she lies and she's like 214 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: I started, I wasn't feeling right. And then she goes 215 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: to a doctor and she just diagnosed with vertico. Also, Ramona, 216 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: you have you creative use of the English language and 217 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: Vertico and Molto always in Southampton, You're always in Southampton. 218 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: You literally are like such a Republican, you love golf, 219 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: You're like so South Florida. I want to be married 220 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: to a Mario. So this book is basically like it's 221 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: mostly just a list of like expensive Italian restaurants Brie 222 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: side and forty two dollars Bucatini to Beppo, and like 223 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: every page she's just like and so then we went 224 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: to La Parmasana, and so that we're at littigh. So 225 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: we go to Rosa, like one of our favorite and 226 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: everything is one of her favorite restaurants. When she discovers 227 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: again no swallers, because I mean full spoilers. See there 228 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: I go Ramona and again ye, no spoilers, full sport 229 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: that her husband has another woman at their Southampton home. 230 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: And she barges in and she goes and I see 231 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: the law parmisan a takeout on the counter, and that's 232 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: where we would get take out every time we go 233 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: to Southampton. I can't believe that he got take up 234 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: from our place. It's just like one. So I've passed 235 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: Laura parmisan a million times. One of your many trips 236 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: to the Hamptons Mariot with Mario and yeah, I mean, 237 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: I've never gotten it because it does seem like so 238 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: forty two ninety five, and I feel like when I'm there, 239 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: like why not get seafood from clamman which she also 240 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: mentions in this book as her favorite place. So okay, 241 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: So she goes to Clammanum when her abusive, demented father 242 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: demands that she buy colossal shrimp for New Year's Eve 243 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: Christmas Eve. So yeah, So if you've if you watched 244 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: it show, you're probably familiar with this, if not. Basically, 245 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: Ramona has a very similar story in many books that 246 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: we've read to many women in the entertainment industry, where 247 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: she has an abusive childhood somewhere and HERBUSI childhood was 248 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 1: basically watching her dad like her mom and be verbally 249 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: abusive to the rest of the family. And and you know, 250 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: she does detail a little bit about how he was 251 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: raised by an abusive mother cycle of abuse, right, but 252 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: this is an upstate New York yes, which it's why 253 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: she's so triggered when they go upstage like Luan's like 254 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: gay panic house that Luanne buys. I would like to 255 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: just read a quote, just a few lines that kind 256 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: of give the way her writing is of a lot 257 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: of this book in referencing restaurants over lunch at fig 258 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: and all of Chic Mediterranean restaurant in the Upper east Side. 259 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: I told my close friend Janie and in turn the 260 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: one point seven five million viewers who tuned in to 261 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: watch that episode, what it was like to grow up 262 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: in a fractured household. She's always just like I was 263 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: telling my friend about my abuse at a laza on 264 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: seventy four Madison. No way, that has this just like 265 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: a Simpson level of detail where she tells you like 266 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: the address in the name and the owner of the 267 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: restaurant every time. And then it's also I mean, this 268 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: is very like her esthetic of wealth, which is just 269 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: like generic but expensive. And so because she's always referencing 270 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: an interior in a way, this is in the very 271 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: beginning she's talking about like, um, how she had reconciled 272 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: with her abuse of dad, like right before he died. 273 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: He came to Christmas at their house in the Hampton's. 274 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: I walked past the island countertop and resumed my position 275 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: at the stove. I stood in front of the Viking 276 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: free range, carefully stirring the home made pasta an aromatic 277 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: clam sauce. I'm just stirring my aromatic clam sauce on 278 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: my vike. We will read any book where a woman 279 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: names the brand of her stove. Oh, just stirring on 280 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: my Viking. Um okay. And then here when she's describing 281 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: how she rose up in the fashion buying business. So 282 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: she had been like working for like Macy's and then shows. 283 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to go out of the junior market and 284 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: into Missi, which was adult sizes. So I started working 285 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: for Flora Kung, a fashion designer who was known for 286 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: her vibrant silk dresses and free handprints. I was managing 287 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: a new division for her and traveling all over the 288 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: country opening accounts with upscale department stores like Nieman, Marcus, Bird, Dwarfs, 289 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: and Marshall Fields. From there on, I worked for a 290 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: company called Signey Designs that did private production for stores 291 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: like The Limited, Express and Taylor and Talbots, which the 292 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: specificity of this liquidator. Yeah, and then she'll be like. 293 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: Eventually Massed Holdings, a subsidiary of the Limited, came in 294 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: acquired eighty percent of Signey Designs and they kind of 295 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: got pushed up. But then she went into business on 296 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: her own, doing wholesale resale. Well, I will say that 297 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: with the Bethany books and the Barbara books, like they 298 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: all kind of give this like generic like say yes, 299 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: be a bulldog. Yeah, I'll give this to Ramona, my 300 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: sister with a nonverbal earning disorder. Is like I felt 301 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: like she was giving more like actual business advice. Yeah no, 302 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: I mean she is so honest, and she's really honest 303 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: on the show in a way that none of the 304 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 1: other women are. And she's literally just saying, actually, what happened, right, 305 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: because just like Bethany would be too kind of embarrassed 306 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: to like tell you that she that like Signa got 307 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: purchased for whatever, left like a seventy five percent discount, 308 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: and then she'd be launched her own for twenty five 309 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: krone saw boxes and boxes of Skinny Girl flavored tea 310 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: at TJ Max. And it's like it's probably Ramona who 311 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: bought the not sold Skinny Girl tea and sold it 312 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: to TJ Max.

And actually we have a really meaningful friendship, 336 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: but she goes on on like pages and it's just like, 337 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: this is why they suck time. So when she's first 338 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: getting cast on the show and they're like trying to 339 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: court her, she goes, I had almost forgotten, but a 340 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: few months back, I had attended a cooking party hosted 341 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: by my friend Pamela Morgan, who owns a culinary business 342 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: called Flirting with Flavors. She mentions Flirting with Flavors twice. Later, 343 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: she has like a watch party. She was like, I 344 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: invited my friend Pamela Morgan, who was owner of the 345 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: company Flirting with Flavors. So she kind of shades Jill Zarin, 346 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: and that's which I love because basically, Jill Zarn's also 347 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: being courted to be on the show before it starts. 348 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: She's also one of the original cast members, and her 349 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: and Jill are like tennis buddies in the Hamptons, and 350 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: Jill doesn't tell her that she's being courted for the show. 351 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: So she's like, apparently they tried to check me down, 352 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: but they couldn't find me, even though Jill Zarin, who 353 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: was also at the party, could have told them how 354 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: to contact me. So Jill Zarn's basically trying to like 355 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: get remoted and not be on the show. She doesn't 356 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: want to start, which totally makes sense, I think for 357 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: how Jill's whole storyline played out, and how she had 358 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: the fallen out with Bethany and became so jealous of 359 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: Bethany when Bethany started becoming like a fabulous businesswoman and like, 360 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, because they they never like resume their friendship either. No, 361 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: And in the beginning, it's like during the true Faith 362 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: like skincare party, you know, Ramona makes a day at 363 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: Jill and Bethany defends Jill. She's like Ramona is like 364 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: Jill's always trying to like drag you down, and Bethany 365 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: is like Ramona, like stop it. She's like, one, get 366 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: a better name for your moisturizer too, Like Jill is 367 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: not trying to drive me down. And then she really 368 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 1: also is so positive towards Luanne. Yeah, she doesn't say 369 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: one bad word. She mentions she's like maybe she hooked 370 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: up with like Kelly ben Simon's X or something like 371 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 1: that on our trip to like Saint Tropez. She's like, 372 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: I won't say what happened, but I'll say this Luanne 373 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: like knows her way around him. Man. The thing about 374 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: Ramona is like for most of those books, she's like 375 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 1: I have my amazing husband Mario and my amazing daughter. 376 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: We also have to talk about how she's so glimmer 377 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: girls with Avery. Yeah, she has this daughter, Avery single 378 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: one daughter? Which can I just say, don't have one kids? 379 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: Don't have one kid? It's rude to the trial, it's insane. 380 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: I've never like, have you ever met a well adjusted 381 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: only child? Silence? Yeah, right, no, I'm sorry. Yeah, there's 382 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: there's something missing there. It's just not right, not right. 383 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: Only child hive come at us, but like look down deep, 384 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: like don't you want us? And even if you hate them? 385 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: Like that's if I was to have kids, and I'm 386 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: still undecided, and I'll just be raw with the audience here, yeah, 387 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: her hinge profile, it's just a little baby carriage icon undecided. 388 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: I would have two.

And you know that was I think an 516 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: important lesson for any of us who are striving to 517 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: get into business. Be extremely wary about taking on partners, Yes, 518 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: because there's a real temptation to it the beginning to 519 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: take on up unless it's like a creative partner in 520 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: the business. But taking on a non creative partner is 521 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: often someone who's going to take advantage of you, and 522 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: you probably don't need it, and you can probably figure 523 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: out how to do it on yours.
