Speaker 1: I'm Teddy Mellencamp and this is Emily Simpson and.
Speaker 2: You're listening to Popping Off.
Speaker 3: We have to give a special thank you to Emily
Speaker 3: because she is currently in Cancun right now, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry that I had to cancel the one before,
Speaker 3: but can you just do it?
Speaker 1: Thanks a lot. You're like, can you just do a
Speaker 1: podcast from Cancun? Sure? I just left the cabana where
Speaker 1: I was looking at crystal turquoise Blue Waters and came
Speaker 1: up to my room so I can do a podcast
Speaker 1: with you. That's a professional, I am.
Speaker 2: You know what you really? You scream professionalism?
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 3: I feel that every time I watch an episode of
Speaker 3: Real House Buzzing County.
Speaker 1: Is that your takeaway? Every time? You're like that, Emily,
Speaker 1: she's so classy and professional.
Speaker 3: I'm like that, Emily, that's a real professional there. Speaking
Speaker 3: of professionals, this first headline is up from People Magazine,
Speaker 3: so you.
Speaker 2: Know, oh, this is legit when we see.
Speaker 3: People Magazine and not Radar Online, like, ah, shit is
Speaker 3: hitting the fan. This first one is Jax Taylor is
Speaker 3: filming The Valley season two, but Britney Cartwright wants nothing
Speaker 3: to do with him when it comes to filming for
Speaker 3: season two The Valley. This source, I'm like the source
Speaker 3: being Jackson's publicist or who tells people at this time
Speaker 3: the pair aren't compatible of being in the same room
Speaker 3: together or being in communication with one another.
Speaker 2: Brittany has reached her limit.
Speaker 3: And remains strong to do what is best for herself
Speaker 3: and her son. Then, the insider reveals that much of
Speaker 3: the drama will be seen on the upcoming season. As
Speaker 3: the new season of The Valley unfolds, a lot of
Speaker 3: shocking details will come to the surface. The source notes,
Speaker 3: since nothing has been off limits, it may end up
Speaker 3: being the most unpredictable, no holds barred seasons to ever
Speaker 3: appear on reality television.
Speaker 1: Yet that definitely came from Jackson.
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure. Then the source also yeah.
Speaker 3: The source also, there's two sides to every story, and
Speaker 3: Jacks has his views that will be addressed once he's back.
Speaker 3: His focus is to be amicable co parents for the
Speaker 3: sake of their son, which brings us to Britney Cartwright
Speaker 3: files for divorce from Jax Taylor.
Speaker 2: TMZ broke the news right here.
Speaker 3: Cartwright went to court Tuesday and file divorce documents after
Speaker 3: five years of marriage. According to the new legal docts
Speaker 3: obtained by TMZ, Brittany is going with irreconcilable differences as
Speaker 3: the reason for the split. This strange couple previously announced
Speaker 3: their separation in February, and Brittany lists the date of
Speaker 3: separation is January twenty fourth, twenty twenty four. Brittany also
Speaker 3: wants to block the ability of the court to award
Speaker 3: spousal a support to either of them. That's a pretty
Speaker 3: big deal to block from either of them, Like we
Speaker 3: just want Like she's just saying, I'm freaking done, I
Speaker 3: want to be responsible for myself, my son, you.
Speaker 1: And honestly, it's probably because they're both making the same
Speaker 1: amount of money. Yeah, she's making more. She probably wouldn't
Speaker 1: have that, you know.
Speaker 3: Isn't He's still living in the house and she's not,
Speaker 3: So I think she helped him get the house. But
Speaker 3: also I saw I don't know if you guys follow
Speaker 3: and if you don't. She always has good little nuggets,
Speaker 3: alleged nuggets. Who knows, but Steph with the Deats posted
Speaker 3: this video of somebody who allegedly sent over all of
Speaker 3: these text messages or dms or whatever they were between
Speaker 3: Remember when Jacks posted the video of Brittany and Cruz
Speaker 3: laying in the bed and yeah, and he's like, look
Speaker 3: who's been sleeping here? Well, Steph with the deats apparently
Speaker 3: got these messages or Dumal got the messages or whoever.
Speaker 3: It was from another woman that said she was actually
Speaker 3: sleeping in that bed that night.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, like after Brittany. So Brittany gets up, gets
Speaker 1: her kids, takes her kid home to put him to bed,
Speaker 1: and then another woman comes over.
Speaker 3: Well, my guess is that Brittany wasn't actually in that
Speaker 3: bed that night. That was just taken phone any point
Speaker 3: in time. He was trying to do it switcheroo on
Speaker 3: what the press was saying. But this woman, there's messages
Speaker 3: between her and Jack's where he's like, come through the
Speaker 3: side gate, come in. Then there's a picture of her
Speaker 3: in the bed, which it's clear that it's his bed by.
Speaker 1: Where the oh you can see the background, you can.
Speaker 2: See the background.
Speaker 3: And then like the next day she's like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: I'm so tired. How are you doing it? And he's like, well,
Speaker 3: I'm in whatever, I'm in, Long Beach. I'm paraphrasing like yeah,
Speaker 3: blah blah blah, and she's like, I don't know how
Speaker 3: you could do it after no sleep, And so it's
Speaker 3: just like Jacks, come on, he doesn't even know like.
Speaker 1: The basic lesson of no paper trail. Yeah, like get
Speaker 1: yourself a burner phone like real professional cheaters do, or
Speaker 1: at least as snapchat. Yeah, like that's something needs to
Speaker 1: disappear before you can screenshot it. Like you're just leaving
Speaker 1: evidence out there everywhere. It's very unprofessional.
Speaker 2: Very Emily would never.
Speaker 1: Very unprofessional. Laala can't claims Katie Maloney friendship is over
Speaker 1: after the VPR feud. It's US weekly article. Lala can't
Speaker 1: just shut down any helpe of Vanderpump rules fans had
Speaker 1: about her rekindling her friendship with Katie Maloney. During the Wednesday,
Speaker 1: August twenty first episode of her Give Them La La podcast,
Speaker 1: Laala thirty three reflected on the close bond she had
Speaker 1: with Katie in the past. They all have a really
Speaker 1: special place in my heart. I had a really fun
Speaker 1: time with Arianna when I first met her on the
Speaker 1: show Katie. My friendship with her during season ten, I
Speaker 1: thought that friendship was really on point. She noted when
Speaker 1: I think back, I'm like, Wow, even though it was
Speaker 1: a hard time in my life, that friendship really got
Speaker 1: me through a tough time in my life. Katie and
Speaker 1: I were very close. I don't think now we have
Speaker 1: anything in common, and that's okay, Lalla claimed. I don't
Speaker 1: even know what we would talk about now. We're just
Speaker 1: in such different places, and I think that friendship was
Speaker 1: meant to be the way it was for the time being.
Speaker 1: I get that, I mean, I get that.
Speaker 3: I also think when you're about to have your second
Speaker 3: child and another person doesn't have any kids as single,
Speaker 3: you really are in different parts of your life. And
Speaker 3: if you're not filming a television show together, and maybe
Speaker 3: part of the friendship was because you were filming a
Speaker 3: show together.
Speaker 1: Then there's where's the bond. There's not much left then
Speaker 1: to get it. Yeah, and you know the way she
Speaker 1: says it, though, I think is very respectful. She didn't
Speaker 1: say like he's a bitch and I don't like her
Speaker 1: or anything. She made a very valid point that we're
Speaker 1: just in two different places in our life, and I
Speaker 1: think that's a reasonable point. Don't you you have kids,
Speaker 1: you're married, I'm sure you don't have friendships with people
Speaker 1: that you were friends with younger because you're just not
Speaker 1: compatible anymore.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean I think there's also you have
Speaker 3: to have a friendship outside of the show to.
Speaker 2: Then carry on.
Speaker 3: Like I think what she's saying is like, yeah, she
Speaker 3: really did a lot for me during a hard time,
Speaker 3: but now that we're in a different place, if neither
Speaker 3: person is making an effort and you're in different stages
Speaker 3: of your life, it is going to be done.
Speaker 2: Like one person has to give in that.
Speaker 3: I mean even I mean I have friends where either
Speaker 3: their kids are a lot older than mine or whatever,
Speaker 3: and like, you know, I just got a text today
Speaker 3: like Hey, Teddy, do you want to go to the
Speaker 3: Malibu cook Off on you know whatever Sunday?
Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, can I bring my kid? You know,
Speaker 2: like there's always that thing. It's like it's a weekend.
Speaker 3: So you know, there's only so much I can do,
Speaker 3: or so much I even want to do or I'm
Speaker 3: able to do where I don't feel that ca that mom.
Speaker 1: Guilt exactly, especially when you're filming, because I feel like
Speaker 1: there's so much guilt when you're filming anyway, because you're
Speaker 1: taken from your kids. In order to film a show.
Speaker 1: So then when you're not filming, you really want to
Speaker 1: focus on being with your family and being around your
Speaker 1: children and making them a priority.
Speaker 3: So and I think that La La is probably about
Speaker 3: to birth right now, so she is probably quite emotional.
Speaker 1: So as vander Pump is, it's not official that it's done.
Speaker 1: Are we just speculating that there's no more VPR?
Speaker 2: We're just speculating.
Speaker 3: I'm guessing though, if we've got Lala and Sheena on
Speaker 3: the valley, we've got the jack stuff, So I mean,
Speaker 3: really we're just missing I mean, I think Arian is
Speaker 3: done would be my I mean, I'm totally just making
Speaker 3: that up. I have no idea or inside knowledge. But
Speaker 3: like Arian, it seems to be thriving outside of the show.
Speaker 3: She seems when she talks about it, she seems to
Speaker 3: be very removed from it. So if she's removed from it,
Speaker 3: then Katie's automatically removed from it. I don't know that.
Speaker 3: Shorts and Tom are you know what?
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, do we do people care enough to watch
Speaker 3: a show with those guys or do they need to
Speaker 3: start fresh?
Speaker 1: They need to start fresh? I don't know. They need
Speaker 1: to find their own.
Speaker 2: Or it's just all going to morph into the valley.
Speaker 2: And then we also have.
Speaker 3: You know clearly now that Stossy's going to be on
Speaker 3: the other vander Pump show and then get her own show,
Speaker 3: like that's going to fill another void and maybe there's
Speaker 3: just not room for vander Pump Rules anymore. It makes sense,
Speaker 3: it makes sense. Yeah, the math is mathing. As the
Speaker 3: kids say, yes.
Speaker 1: It's mathing. It's making sense.
Speaker 2: It's making sense.
Speaker 3: The next one with Lisa vander Pump hits back at
Speaker 3: Rachel Levis vander Pump Rules criticism. Lisa said Rachel clap
Speaker 3: back at Rachel slash Raquel for saying that she would
Speaker 3: only return to vander Pump Rules if they paid for
Speaker 3: her therapy. She said that, but I think she had
Speaker 3: a therapist on hand the whole time through filming, vander
Speaker 3: Pump told US Weekly in an interview shared Thursday.
Speaker 2: The vander Pump Rules.
Speaker 3: Matriarch added that Bravo was very cognizant of the cast members'
Speaker 3: needs and being there even when you're filming, saying somebody's
Speaker 3: available for you to talk to. Even though Levis is
Speaker 3: now expressing interest in returning for season twelve.
Speaker 2: I'm like, is there a season fast?
Speaker 3: Right? Vander Pump doesn't think it makes sense for her
Speaker 3: to rejoin the cast. It's hard to integrate somebody into
Speaker 3: a situation like this. As I say, you can never
Speaker 3: say never. But she had a lot of things to
Speaker 3: say about vander Pump rules, about producers and VC, so
Speaker 3: I think we can safely say that ship has sailed.
Speaker 3: Vander Pump admitted very rarely do I agree with Lisa
Speaker 3: vander Pump. But in this situation, I don't know that
Speaker 3: you can publicly go forward and just trash the network,
Speaker 3: trash the show, trash everybody.
Speaker 2: On it, and then be like I'd love to come
Speaker 2: back and come back.
Speaker 1: You know, I never understand. Okay, let me just say this. Someday,
Speaker 1: this career with Real Housewives of Orange care County will end,
Speaker 1: and when it ends, I will say thank you for
Speaker 1: the opportunity and I will go my merry way. Well,
Speaker 1: instam name and my Instagram name will end as well.
Speaker 1: Have to find a new one. I'll just make it.
Speaker 1: I don't know, like mean and aggressive, but I have
Speaker 1: learned a very Maybe it's because I had a career before.
Speaker 1: I've worked for law firms, and then you know, when
Speaker 1: you leave a job, you always do in a very
Speaker 1: professional way. You give two weeks notice, you say thank
Speaker 1: you for the opportunity. I don't burn any bridges. So
Speaker 1: that's how I would exit this show, because you never
Speaker 1: know when another opportunity with Bravo is going to come up,
Speaker 1: especially now that they have all these girls trips and
Speaker 1: spin offs and traders. And why would you trash the
Speaker 1: hand you know that fed you, Like, why would you
Speaker 1: go back and just start trashing It makes no sense
Speaker 1: to me. I'm just going to be like, thanks for
Speaker 1: the opportunity. It was amazing.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think where Rachel probably went wrong
Speaker 3: was trusting in Bethany and that first interview that like,
Speaker 3: I think Rachel thought that maybe she was going to
Speaker 3: be able to create the same sort of like I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know hype around herself that Bethany has created,
Speaker 3: but Bethany was, I mean as much as beth Any bugs,
Speaker 3: like even the whole thing with her toaster of and
Speaker 3: wanting to cancel this new version of the pop tart
Speaker 3: and all of it.
Speaker 2: Like, but I mean there's I know.
Speaker 1: I don't even have any idea what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, it's like beyond.
Speaker 3: I don't follow her either, but Instagram like just won't
Speaker 3: let me ever not see what it's going on. So
Speaker 3: it's like she she does these like little videos where
Speaker 3: she you know, first it was makeup. Then she got
Speaker 3: in this fight with Chanelle cause Shechanell didn't let her
Speaker 3: in because I mean, she's just she's kind of a menace.
Speaker 3: But she gets a lot of attention for it. And
Speaker 3: I think that Rachel's attention is starting to go away.
Speaker 3: And I think that as much as you think you
Speaker 3: want something to be over, when you're used to getting attention,
Speaker 3: even if it's negative attention, when that attention disappears and
Speaker 3: you haven't filled whatever that void is in you, you're
Speaker 3: going to feel a loss. I guess now we got
Speaker 3: to get into the Too Hot to Handle recaps. Yay,
Speaker 3: we are going to be recapping season six, episode eight
Speaker 3: nine and tens. I mean, this has been an entertaining
Speaker 3: show to watch. It started to win us over. But
Speaker 3: this episode starts where refinally reveals to Jamary that she
Speaker 3: did not kiss Jalen oh Man.
Speaker 1: They made that a cliffhanger.
Speaker 3: It was like I mean, but did you really think
Speaker 3: that they did. I was like, Bria is so into
Speaker 3: Damori or Jamio.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no way she's kissing Janrio to Mario brothers. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the Tomorrio brothers.
Speaker 1: I you know, I didn't know if she did or not,
Speaker 1: but they definitely, they definitely made it. They took that
Speaker 1: cliffhanger and made it as much as they possibly could
Speaker 1: to get people to, you know, back in. But she
Speaker 1: did not kiss him, So there you go. Then.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Charlie doesn't tell Catherine about his message with Sabrina massage.
Speaker 2: I was like, does that mean Lana? I was like,
Speaker 2: you made them message for Lana.
Speaker 3: Oh, the massage was Sabrina massage. But Sabrina's telling all
Speaker 3: the girls about it.
Speaker 2: Of course she is.
Speaker 3: But Sabrina like, one, you didn't need to do that
Speaker 3: because you've already got your eyes set on Chris, which,
Speaker 3: thank goodness, Chris needed some action.
Speaker 1: Okay. And why was Charlie such a ding dong that
Speaker 1: he didn't just tell her like they had a date,
Speaker 1: they spent time together. She knows they were out on
Speaker 1: the beach, she knows how it works. He should have
Speaker 1: just said he had a massage and moved Donnie made it.
Speaker 1: He made it, you know, bigger than it was.
Speaker 3: I think that I think that Charlie is a ding dong,
Speaker 3: Like I think there's no causible way I could consider
Speaker 3: him anything else, even though as the season progressed, I
Speaker 3: started being like, he's kind of attractive.
Speaker 2: Like he grew on me the bigger like mold.
Speaker 1: He kind of just grew on me like a barnacle
Speaker 1: on the bottom of a boat. I was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: he's kind of good looking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like what I was like.
Speaker 3: And also then like, do I need to go into
Speaker 3: like a therapy process because like, why is the bigger
Speaker 3: douche ere the douche here he's becoming.
Speaker 2: I mean he's definitely taken over Joo. I mean Jowe.
Speaker 2: Now is now that I finished the season, I'm being discussed.
Speaker 1: Like the songs.
Speaker 3: No. But then, with twelve hours of their free past remaining,
Speaker 3: Jalen makes out with Lucy and Gianna while Sabrina makes
Speaker 3: out with Chris. Jalen gets in bed with Gianna, but
Speaker 3: only Flavia is watching. Things got steamy last night, especially
Speaker 3: with Chris and Sabrina. Flavia says she couldn't sleep because
Speaker 3: of the noise they were making, but.
Speaker 2: Chris says they didn't go all the way.
Speaker 1: I can't like secondhand cringe though when that happens, Like
Speaker 1: I just picture myself in that room with someone laying
Speaker 1: next to me making out, and I can't sleep because
Speaker 1: I have to listen to it. I don't know. It
Speaker 1: gives me like pts, like I would not enjoy that,
Speaker 1: Like would you be okay just listening to someone next
Speaker 1: to you, I'm not even okay.
Speaker 3: Like hearing people breathe next to me, I'm not even okay.
Speaker 2: It was more than five minutes of cuttle time next
Speaker 2: to me like that.
Speaker 3: The amount of things that upset me in the middle
Speaker 3: of the night, I can't even imagine. I mean, we
Speaker 3: also have to keep in mind, it's not like you're
Speaker 3: watching a couple that have been so into each other.
Speaker 3: Because he couldn't even remember Gianna's name, right, like none
Speaker 3: of them could even remember each other's name. But like
Speaker 3: poor Gianna from being Louise's rebound right before he leaves
Speaker 3: to being forgotten by Jalen. I'm like, girl, you can't
Speaker 3: catch a break, I know, And she never actually made
Speaker 3: any connection while she was there.
Speaker 1: I was surprised they kept her the whole time, But
Speaker 1: then I think maybe it was because she did do
Speaker 1: some inner reflecting and she would talk about that, so
Speaker 1: I think that's why. Otherwise I felt like they would
Speaker 1: have just you know, she wouldn't been.
Speaker 3: Exiled like the other girl that I never learned her name,
Speaker 3: Oh Kyleisha.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yeah she was. She's like, yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: like anyone, and I don't want to talk to anyone.
Speaker 1: I don't want to make out with anyone, and no one.
Speaker 1: I'm not attracted to anyone.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and actually I don't even want to be here,
Speaker 3: So I'm I'm losing money by the day for every
Speaker 3: second that I'm here.
Speaker 2: Then Flavia feels like she's in.
Speaker 3: Trouble because she always goes for the bad boy aka
Speaker 3: someone like Jalen, And I'm like.
Speaker 2: Well, apparently so to me and Emily because we now
Speaker 2: like Chris.
Speaker 3: But we get a Flavia flashback to her past season
Speaker 3: with Creed.
Speaker 2: I almost had.
Speaker 1: Because we didn't want that, we didn't watch it. His
Speaker 1: name is Creed? Is that his real name or is
Speaker 1: that his stage ball name? That's the question.
Speaker 3: It's not in quotes, which leads me to believe it
Speaker 3: is his real name. Like I get that, my kids'
Speaker 3: names are like Dove and Slate and Cruised, but like Creed,
Speaker 3: it makes like even if you're following the ben affleck
Speaker 3: j Lo scandal and supposedly he's hooking up with Kick,
Speaker 3: they put Kick in quote, yeah, because her real name
Speaker 3: is clearly not Kick. She's just one of the Kennedy's
Speaker 3: and like she has her like cool nickname. But I'm like,
Speaker 3: there's no quotations here. There's no quotations.
Speaker 1: So we're thinking his parents actually filled out his birth
Speaker 1: certificate and we're like, Creed sounds good, and.
Speaker 3: Well they I mean maybe Creed you like that was
Speaker 3: a big band in the nineties, right, so I'm sure
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 1: That's what I was doing the math in my head.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, are these people? Were
Speaker 1: these people born in the nineties when I graduated from
Speaker 1: high school? Is that?
Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking?
Speaker 1: Is that where we're at.
Speaker 3: I was like, Creed was like a bit like what
Speaker 3: the next Like is the next guy going to be
Speaker 3: named Savage Garden or Lisa Lobe, like give me all
Speaker 3: the details. But then brit and Tamari convinced char he
Speaker 3: needs to tell Catherine about the massage as soon as possible,
Speaker 3: and then Catherine and Sabrina have their conversation before Charlie
Speaker 3: has a chance to explain.
Speaker 2: Shocker, I'm sure they like held them apart and they're
Speaker 2: like whatever.
Speaker 1: They're like, Charlie, look over there, because.
Speaker 3: It really was like they show him like walking and
Speaker 3: it's like slight emotion and then you see her the
Speaker 3: other girl, like yeah, but Sabrina tell hers that tells
Speaker 3: I thought Sabrina was bullshitting a little bit here, because
Speaker 3: Sabrina came in hard. But she's like she tells Charlie
Speaker 3: that she tells her that Charlie initiated all the flirting
Speaker 3: and that he begged her not to tell anyone about
Speaker 3: the massage.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't think he was the one doing
Speaker 2: all the flirting.
Speaker 1: No, I think she was pretty. She was pretty flirty.
Speaker 1: She was a flirty birdie.
Speaker 3: And she said like, there's never been a guy to
Speaker 3: turn down my advances, right.
Speaker 1: And she was the grenade. Isn't that her job? Wasn't
Speaker 1: she supposed to be seducing him?
Speaker 3: I know? And how shitty would you feel if you
Speaker 3: were brought in to be the grenade, and you couldn't
Speaker 3: seal the deal.
Speaker 2: All you could get was a sandy massage.
Speaker 1: You mean, like I keep thinking about what's his name,
Speaker 1: Christian about he came in as the grenade, and like
Speaker 1: the poor guy isn't even in any of the episodes,
Speaker 1: Like he's a grenade and he can't even like get
Speaker 1: he can't get anything. He doesn't even have airtime.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm here to tell you that maybe we
Speaker 3: should do the casting for the Grenades next year, because
Speaker 3: all of the grenades that came in, except for the
Speaker 3: one chick that left for personal.
Speaker 2: Reasons, they they didn't grenade and grenade. They didn't because
Speaker 2: like on Love.
Speaker 3: Island, when they bring in the bombshells, they handle shit,
Speaker 3: they get shit done okay.
Speaker 1: But are the okay? But maybe then the regular cast
Speaker 1: needs to be more like a B squad looking level.
Speaker 1: And then the grenades that come in, if they all
Speaker 1: just look the same, how are you a grenade?
Speaker 3: No, because the grenades have to like be you have
Speaker 3: to have a step above like the But also it's
Speaker 3: different on Love Island because Love Island they've been around
Speaker 3: these people for a long time.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, it's probably like a week, but it.
Speaker 3: Seems like a long time as the viewer. And then
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, they're like, you know, their nails
Speaker 3: are coming off. You can see all their extensions, like
Speaker 3: times are rough in the villa. And then all of
Speaker 3: a sudden, there's like this sparkly new toy that comes in.
Speaker 1: Oh, and she's all fresh.
Speaker 3: She's got fresh hair, like she has more than four nails,
Speaker 3: still intact, like she's got like she's not sharing bathing Sean,
Speaker 3: It's not like all off everywhere with freckles showing, right,
Speaker 3: But either way, Jalen decides to make his move on
Speaker 3: Flavia and his words, she has a nice fat ass
Speaker 3: and I'm loving it.
Speaker 1: It's so deep. I love the deep connections on this show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to tell you I was never really
Speaker 2: into Jalen.
Speaker 3: I wasn't like I don't really granted Jow ends up
Speaker 3: being disgusting to me, but still like I was like, Flavia,
Speaker 3: really you just must be over Jow to be that
Speaker 3: into Jalen. But then they have the candy Land party,
Speaker 3: where to me, after seeing those guys in that outfits,
Speaker 3: they're absolutely unable, Like, I mean, the fact that I'm
Speaker 3: supposed to be into, like into Jalen as he comes
Speaker 3: out with a giant lollipop on his head.
Speaker 1: No thank you, sir, Yeah, there's nothing masculine about that.
Speaker 2: No, it's I just can't.
Speaker 3: Charlie finally pulls Catherine aside to speak to her.
Speaker 2: Catherine tells him she wants to sleep alone.
Speaker 3: Flavia keeps looking over at Jalen while she's in bed
Speaker 3: with Jow, which concerns Jow. We find out that Valentina
Speaker 3: has to make an early exit.
Speaker 1: They don't explain that though, They're just like, she's gone.
Speaker 2: I mean they're saying personal reasons.
Speaker 3: I think she's like, there's no one else here that
Speaker 3: I'm gonna hook up with, and.
Speaker 1: I yeah, right. My personal reason is everyone here sucks.
Speaker 1: That is my personal reason.
Speaker 3: My personal reason is I came in and I grenated
Speaker 3: as I was supposed to, but it didn't work out
Speaker 3: long term, so now I'm done.
Speaker 1: I did look at Catherine's Instagram, and she and Flavia
Speaker 1: and Valentina make videos together and she's still with Charlie's
Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to know. That's why I looked
Speaker 1: at for Instagram.
Speaker 3: She is still with Charlie. Yes, I wonder if they're
Speaker 3: having a long term relationship, not long term long distance relationship,
Speaker 3: and it's like, well.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it seems long term they're still together.
Speaker 2: No long distance.
Speaker 3: Because that I have, I think there might be some
Speaker 3: trust issues there coming from both sides. Then Lana decides
Speaker 3: to give the girls a woman only workshop where they
Speaker 3: focus on breaking old habits. They're presented with ice baths
Speaker 3: and no shocking term of events. Flavia can't really complete
Speaker 3: this challenge.
Speaker 1: Oh, because she can't get all the way in. Is
Speaker 1: that what you mean? Because I can't either. I can't
Speaker 1: do the ice bath.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I did it this morning and dunked. I
Speaker 3: feel like, if you're with me, I can make you
Speaker 3: do it.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know it really it really
Speaker 1: freaks me out. I don't even like ice cream, so
Speaker 1: it's really hard for me.
Speaker 3: The comparison of the ice cream and being in an
Speaker 3: ice bath, Like you don't like ice.
Speaker 1: I just I don't really like cold things, and so
Speaker 1: getting in an ice bath breaks me out. It gives
Speaker 1: me like heart palpitations.
Speaker 3: Where do you have your AC set like in your home?
Speaker 3: Full time sixty nine? So you do like cold things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but not like just submerging myself in them. I
Speaker 1: don't want to get inside the air conditioning unit. I
Speaker 1: just like to enjoy it at a distance.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: But then Jow has a conversation with Jalen before Flavia
Speaker 3: is able to talk to him. Jalen feels like there's
Speaker 3: a small chance he can end up with Slavia, so
Speaker 3: Joe feels backstab I just need to also know why Joo,
Speaker 3: Like where is he washing his I like older women
Speaker 3: T shirt?
Speaker 2: Or does he have multiples? Or is this his own line?
Speaker 2: Like what is happening?
Speaker 1: And why does he wear it repeatedly? Like what message
Speaker 1: is he trying to send?
Speaker 2: And also is Flavia older?
Speaker 1: That was my question. Is she older than him?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: But then she had Flavia has a vulnerable I love vulnerable.
Speaker 3: This also wasn't in quotes vulnerable conversation with Jow saying
Speaker 3: she has no feelings towards Jalen, it was just her
Speaker 3: self sabotaging habits. Then, when Jalen watched Flavia leave with
Speaker 3: Jow to have a conversation, he assumed they'd break up
Speaker 3: because he's the best man in this situation Flavia's twenty
Speaker 3: seven and Jow is twenty two.
Speaker 1: Oh all right, okay, I guess I mean it's five
Speaker 1: years old woman. I guess.
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess I mean you're an older woman
Speaker 2: than me.
Speaker 1: I am the oldest woman.
Speaker 2: No, I think I podcast with older.
Speaker 1: That's true, but then.
Speaker 3: Uh, it's I also couldn't help myself between the T
Speaker 3: shirt and then thinking if Flavia really cared about Jow,
Speaker 3: she would maybe put a deep conditioner in his hair
Speaker 3: because things are getting askew with.
Speaker 2: It in this scene, like I was like, whoa.
Speaker 3: Catherine pulls Charlie for a chat. Charlie acknowledges that he
Speaker 3: ficked up and he wants to make it right, and
Speaker 3: then Catherine wonders how she can trust him again after this,
Speaker 3: After being vulnerable with each other, they finally they get
Speaker 3: the green light makeout time for fifteen seconds.
Speaker 1: How do you think that would work in marriage? Like
Speaker 1: do you think if you just if Edwin treats you right,
Speaker 1: then he gets a green light? Like he has to
Speaker 1: wear a watch around all day and he has to
Speaker 1: say nice things to you and like buy you things
Speaker 1: and like tell you you're beautiful.
Speaker 2: But then who's in charge of it?
Speaker 3: Me? Yeah, Like I don't know that, Like Alexa is
Speaker 3: gonna be is that her name, like Alexa turn on
Speaker 3: ninety eight point seven or whatever?
Speaker 2: Like is she going to.
Speaker 3: Be able to be the one that's like you get
Speaker 3: the green light at.
Speaker 1: I mean maybe soon with Ai you could have Blake.
Speaker 2: Or do I just have a little buzzer where I'm like,
Speaker 2: you did good today?
Speaker 1: That would be like a shot caller?
Speaker 2: True? Why do I could just get him a shot caller?
Speaker 2: And then when I'm interested, like.
Speaker 1: My dog has one of those, I'm gonna put it.
Speaker 2: On Shane, like you haven't already?
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: Then we're in episode nine. They only have a few
Speaker 3: days left in the retreat. Gianna warns Catherine and Charlie
Speaker 3: not to break any rules tonight, but Chris and Sabrina
Speaker 3: are actually the ones to break the rules. How do
Speaker 3: these people like not realize the others are breaking the
Speaker 3: rules when they're two inches from each other.
Speaker 1: I know that they have to hear it, right.
Speaker 3: I one would think, or else they're all like passed
Speaker 3: out ambient, like given ambient every night before they go to.
Speaker 1: Around me.
Speaker 3: And then it's time for the estetic I love this
Speaker 3: establoshed couples to go on a date. I'm like, they
Speaker 3: just made up yesterday and they're an established couple.
Speaker 2: But we have to.
Speaker 1: Expedite things on this show. So if you've been together
Speaker 1: for two days, you're considered established.
Speaker 3: If you've made up for twenty four hours, you are
Speaker 3: pretty much getting married. All of the couples except one
Speaker 3: that broke the rules last night on the date, Jamori
Speaker 3: is going to ask Brie to be his girlfriend. Chris
Speaker 3: admits he can see his and Sabrina's relationship lasting outside
Speaker 3: of the show. Brie and Damory drive a jeep to
Speaker 3: their date, which is a picnic by the ocean. Jamori
Speaker 3: tells Brie he sees her fitting in really well with
Speaker 3: this family on the outside. Bree's nervous because she has
Speaker 3: a track record of choosing bad men. Her trust level
Speaker 3: for Damorio is eighty percent. I love when they percentages right.
Speaker 1: I mean he is a stockbroker slash model, so I
Speaker 1: feel like.
Speaker 2: But no stockbroker is off the thing.
Speaker 1: Oh it's gone. He quit. He's done, just.
Speaker 3: A model and potentially Bree's boyfriend. Then Charlie and Catherine
Speaker 3: take a kayak to their date location, which is also
Speaker 3: a picnic at the beach. They cheers to Katherine their
Speaker 3: self Chatherine.
Speaker 1: Oh Katherine, there's.
Speaker 3: Self proclaimed couple name on the outside. They live in
Speaker 3: completely different countries. Charlie acknowledges that could make things very
Speaker 3: hard for them. He's not ressuring Catherine that he won't
Speaker 3: go back to his old ways.
Speaker 2: Okay, mister ninety.
Speaker 3: Nine point five percent, Well he changed it, like, I'm
Speaker 3: really shocked that you can't commit to, you know, a
Speaker 3: long distance relationship. And then Chris set up his own
Speaker 3: little date with Sabrina. He wants to get to know
Speaker 3: her so they can continue this relationship on the outside.
Speaker 2: Sure. Sure.
Speaker 3: Continuing with Demari and Breeze date, he tells her how
Speaker 3: much he's changed from being in this retreat. He asked
Speaker 3: her to be his girlfriend and she says.
Speaker 1: Duh, and they get a green light and Maury is
Speaker 1: officially official. Do you have a joint name with you
Speaker 1: and your husband?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: It was our Instagram name until I got until I
Speaker 3: booked Housewives, which was ted Winader.
Speaker 2: We shared one Edwin and Teddy, but that wasn't like
Speaker 2: a couple name.
Speaker 3: It was just Teddy and Edwin was taken as an
Speaker 3: Instagram name, so we were.
Speaker 1: Like, Shimmily, that's never I never really thought about it before.
Speaker 2: Or you could just be shame shame.
Speaker 1: That's better. That makes sense.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I mean, but I wish they would
Speaker 3: have said bre Mario.
Speaker 2: It would have made me feel better than.
Speaker 1: That's because they don't listen to this podcast, and they
Speaker 1: need to start listening.
Speaker 3: And then we continue to Charlie and Catherine state, I
Speaker 3: mean whatever. Apparently they're still together, according to Emily's recording
Speaker 3: to Instagram.
Speaker 1: I looked at her Instagram. It seems like they're still together.
Speaker 3: But then Joo and Flavia's date is up next. Joo expresses,
Speaker 3: I can barely utter these words.
Speaker 1: Joao expresses himself through music, so he spent hours. Do
Speaker 1: you think it was hours writing a song about his feelings.
Speaker 1: Flavia is determined to fight for him on this date.
Speaker 1: She tells Jow this relationship is something that can work
Speaker 1: on the outside. Joel decides to play a song for
Speaker 1: Flavia because he feels like it fits their situation. From
Speaker 1: the lyrics and the song, which is basically a bunch
Speaker 1: of ooohs our time is up now, Flavia is wondering
Speaker 1: if that means their time is up. We get left
Speaker 1: on a cliffhanger of Joel saying he's made a really
Speaker 1: tough decision.
Speaker 3: The picture is our time up now is going to
Speaker 3: get jaw the songwriting like Hall of Fame anytime soon?
Speaker 2: No, But like that.
Speaker 3: Song, I've never felt more uncomfortable for somebody that wanted
Speaker 3: to launch a new career. It's like how I feel
Speaker 3: when a housewife like launches a candle line on.
Speaker 2: Their first season, Yeah, and their first Like I wanted
Speaker 2: to unlive.
Speaker 1: Myself, but you know what, you know what was even
Speaker 1: more cringey was the fact that he couldn't get any
Speaker 1: He didn't he couldn't read the room like he just
Speaker 1: unless they they made it so it looked like he
Speaker 1: kept singing for a long time, but didn't it look
Speaker 1: like you could tell she was uncomfort and she wasn't
Speaker 1: into the song, and it was awkward and it was odd.
Speaker 1: Yet he just continued to keep singing lyric after lyric
Speaker 1: after lyric, and I was like, why is he not stopping?
Speaker 3: Because he thought this was his moment to become famous
Speaker 3: outside of Too Hot to Handle. Clearly he thought the
Speaker 3: song I was like, if you're going to do a song,
Speaker 3: a breakup song like that, shit better come out, Like
Speaker 3: I don't know John Mayer, Taylor Swift, like you really
Speaker 3: like a Harry Styles like you.
Speaker 2: Better bring it.
Speaker 3: It can't be like, oh, whoa, it's over now, like
Speaker 3: no Jow, no.
Speaker 2: Air guitar, get the flu.
Speaker 3: Maracasom but she's clearly awkward. But it's the finale and
Speaker 3: they're making things dramatic. No, oh my god, our producer
Speaker 3: just texted us.
Speaker 2: No breaking news. It's on Instagram.
Speaker 3: Jaw and Flavia just came out with a song together.
Speaker 1: It's on it called the most Awkward Couple Ever?
Speaker 2: Is it called your Delulu I?
Speaker 3: I actually can't because at the finale and they're really
Speaker 3: trying to make things dramatic after what happened with Jalen,
Speaker 3: Jow's too worried about how things would happen for them
Speaker 3: on the outside, which is when we get to the
Speaker 3: guitar conversation. But then when they get back to the
Speaker 3: suites and like it's clear they're over, then Jow is
Speaker 3: like trying to explain to the guys, Yeah, oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: hold on this, it's their breakup song. It's our time now,
Speaker 3: last message about this, but they duet it it's.
Speaker 2: Our time now. Oh so there's a duet?
Speaker 1: Are they? Are they a couple?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: I don't know. They're friends. They're friends. They're just friends,
Speaker 2: you know what. They're friends.
Speaker 1: And they just thought it was a good idea because
Speaker 1: Jowel did such a good job with his original song
Speaker 1: that they thought it was a good job that he
Speaker 1: continued on that path.
Speaker 3: Just for the record, Joo has two million TikTok followers
Speaker 3: like sad for us. Then Bree's confidence she and Demuri
Speaker 3: will win the prize fund, which at this point I
Speaker 3: am so confused.
Speaker 2: How there's a prize fund at all? Yeah, I'm like,
Speaker 2: absolutely no prize fund.
Speaker 3: How you spent all of the money that Ever, then
Speaker 3: I realized this whole money thing is bullshit.
Speaker 1: It is you guys just keep making out all the time.
Speaker 1: You don't really care about the money.
Speaker 3: But also then everybody then people get money in the
Speaker 3: end anyway, And was it gonna be that money?
Speaker 2: I don't think it's.
Speaker 1: Additional money that they added to the prize at the end.
Speaker 1: So they just lost all the original prize money and
Speaker 1: then they just had some more money at the end,
Speaker 1: like the twenty five thousand for Gianna, was that just
Speaker 1: extra that didn't come out of the prize fund? Right?
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know that's why it off I mean
Speaker 3: it says Lana mentions that she's proud of her single
Speaker 3: guest who committed to her rules and have shown personal growth.
Speaker 3: Today is everyone's last chance to show Lana why they
Speaker 3: deserve to win the one hundred and twenty five thousand
Speaker 3: dollars prize fund. Gianna's twenty five thousand came out of
Speaker 3: the prize fund.
Speaker 1: So the one hundred and twenty five thousand is what's
Speaker 1: left over after they spent a bunch of money because
Speaker 1: they started with more.
Speaker 3: Right, I don't actually believe that, because if that was
Speaker 3: the case, don't you think they would have been like
Speaker 3: starting fund at five hundred thousand. I don't think there
Speaker 3: was ever a set number because they didn't really they
Speaker 3: knew everybody was going to spend so much, and they
Speaker 3: were and they were scared people wouldn't actually spend it.
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, what if they said
Speaker 3: five hundred thousand and then they had to give five
Speaker 3: hundred thousand.
Speaker 1: So you're saying you just thought that no matter what happened,
Speaker 1: they would just have one hundred and twenty five thousand
Speaker 1: to give away at the end.
Speaker 2: Period, correct, because how is the number perfect?
Speaker 1: And even especially when they charged like thirteen thousand here,
Speaker 1: six thousand here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that makes absolutely no sense. But Gianna is
Speaker 3: the only person in the retreat who made it to
Speaker 3: the end with no rule breaks. Her saying is peace
Speaker 3: over Penis. If if Gianna is not willing to start
Speaker 3: a women's retreat calling peace over Penis, then I will.
Speaker 2: So that's a good name, Gianna. This is it is.
Speaker 2: It's a really good name.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like it. I'm gonna tell Shane that when
Speaker 1: he wants to have sex.
Speaker 4: Piece peace over Penis.
Speaker 3: Catherine's convinced she and Charlie are deserved to win.
Speaker 2: I'm like hmm.
Speaker 3: And then Jow's trying to realize that breaking up with
Speaker 3: Flavia through a song was not the best idea.
Speaker 2: No shit, me those your t shirt.
Speaker 1: Okay, here's the thing though. He didn't realize it until
Speaker 1: he went back to the room and told the other
Speaker 1: people that he sang a breakup song, and then their faces.
Speaker 2: Were like not even one of them liked it.
Speaker 1: No, they were all like flabbergacid, and it took that
Speaker 1: moment for him to realize that it wasn't a good idea.
Speaker 1: Like he clearly didn't realize it at the time. He
Speaker 1: didn't realize it by Flavia's reaction. He didn't realize it
Speaker 1: while he was singing. He couldn't read the room. It
Speaker 1: took it.
Speaker 3: He didn't realize when he was writing the song please.
Speaker 2: Like I just can't.
Speaker 3: But then Charlie pours out his heart to breathe. He
Speaker 3: doesn't think they would have changed for the better. They
Speaker 3: have never been banished. Charlie doesn't see an end with Catherine.
Speaker 3: If he wins, most of the money will go towards
Speaker 3: plane tickets to visit her in La I'm like, that's
Speaker 3: like three plane tickets.
Speaker 2: I hate to be the bad news.
Speaker 1: You're not flying back and forth very often.
Speaker 3: No, So you'll make it once and then the final
Speaker 3: workshop of the season, who dictates who wins? As it's
Speaker 3: going to measure everyone's growth throughout the retreat.
Speaker 2: I can't wait for your dramatic reading on this.
Speaker 3: They all have to share one word that represents their
Speaker 3: time from this experience. Then they'll choose a corresponding color
Speaker 3: to match their word.
Speaker 1: I felt like, don't you feel like producers gave them
Speaker 1: the word? I feel like none of these people were
Speaker 1: capable of sitting there on the beach hearing that they
Speaker 1: had to come up with a word and pick a
Speaker 1: color like spontaneously. I don't feel like any of them
Speaker 1: could have done this spontaneously. Feel like the words were
Speaker 1: given to them, don't you think?
Speaker 3: But also, do you think Charlie would have chose awakening?
Speaker 1: No, that's what I'm saying. The guy is ninety seven
Speaker 1: point five percent sure that he would cheat, but he
Speaker 1: came up with the word awakening. That makes no sense.
Speaker 1: And authenticity and courage and consciousness like these are these
Speaker 1: are deep, big words, These are these are maturity.
Speaker 2: I'm like, you're you're eleven and a half on this
Speaker 2: show right now, and you're not even in time.
Speaker 1: You're not even in any of the scenes.
Speaker 2: You see the I don't even remember you in the womb,
Speaker 2: and neither does Emily.
Speaker 3: Even though she cried Gianna's independence, jow is truth, Flavia's friendship,
Speaker 3: clearly she's she came out with that word on top
Speaker 3: because now we're in Jower friends, Uh, Chris connection, Sabrina openness.
Speaker 3: I was like, you seem pretty open at the beginning, Jamari,
Speaker 3: respect trust. Then they all throw their colors in the
Speaker 3: air and have a little celebration.
Speaker 2: Yeah this yay, I'm blue, I'm green.
Speaker 1: Gorge.
Speaker 3: Lana calls everyone into the cabana to reveal who will
Speaker 3: be going to the final. It's between Lucy, Chris, and
Speaker 3: Gianna to take home twenty five thousand from the prize fund.
Speaker 3: The winter will be I'm confused. Didn't Lucy and Chris
Speaker 3: have rule breaks?
Speaker 1: They did, but I guess they were in the running
Speaker 1: because they had some personal growth. I mean, Chris went
Speaker 1: from like not wanting to connect with anyone and having
Speaker 1: problems with his mom saying that, you know, he wanted
Speaker 1: to connect with his mom and he was growing. He
Speaker 1: wanted to have a relationship with Sabrina. And Lucy. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I guess because she cried and wanted her
Speaker 1: mom and wanted to go home, but then she stayed
Speaker 1: and stuck it out. I don't know. That's some growth.
Speaker 1: She stuck it out three days, she saved three days
Speaker 1: longer at a resort on the beach.
Speaker 2: Wow, you really did it.
Speaker 3: But Gianna got to take on the twenty five thousand,
Speaker 3: and then the remaining one hundred thousand will go to
Speaker 3: one couple dun daid dun dah, either Damori and Brie
Speaker 3: or Charlie and Catherine. The two couples make their way
Speaker 3: down to the beach to wait for the instructions. It's
Speaker 3: just still bananas to me that it's a clean number,
Speaker 3: But I'm just gonna move on from it.
Speaker 2: And pretend that I don't. We're stuck logic.
Speaker 3: But then they're back at the cabana and Landa tells
Speaker 3: the remaining house guests that they will choose which couple wins.
Speaker 3: Just as everyone's about to say who they voted for,
Speaker 3: were left on a cliffanger. Commercial break, Commercial break. It's
Speaker 3: the night of the finale. Everyone's all dressed up and
Speaker 3: ready to hear the winners, and no shock. The twenty
Speaker 3: five thousand goes to Gianna. Lana knows who to call
Speaker 3: when she needs a good example in the future.
Speaker 2: Maybe that means Gianna will be back next year.
Speaker 1: I think so. They're going to bring her in as
Speaker 1: a grenade.
Speaker 3: Oh but is she grenade? That's what I don't know.
Speaker 3: She doesn't seem like mean.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. Because they didn't bring Louis and Flavia
Speaker 1: in as grenades they brought. They brought Louis and Flavia
Speaker 1: in as examples like Louise.
Speaker 3: Yes, see what I'm saying. That's or to have a
Speaker 3: I guess he was an example. It was so they
Speaker 3: could have a second chance being better.
Speaker 1: Okay, But then the.
Speaker 3: Hundred thousand dollars prize fund goes to Brian Damori. They're
Speaker 3: officially done with the treat the retreat, and no rules apply.
Speaker 3: Fireworks go off at the end. We end with Joo
Speaker 3: about to play Lana's song.
Speaker 1: It's called I Don't want to leave the Retreat. Hello,
Speaker 1: it's called.
Speaker 2: Lana. I like older women.
Speaker 1: Lana.
Speaker 2: How old are you?
Speaker 3: And how old bad?
Speaker 2: Lana?
Speaker 1: I need to wash my T shirt.
Speaker 3: I you know, we're grateful you guys want on this
Speaker 3: journey with us.
Speaker 2: But I am really looking forward to Mormons.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're actually really I am too, because I feel
Speaker 1: like you can take a deep dive. There. There's a
Speaker 1: lot more to analyze, there's a lot more to talk about.
Speaker 1: There's a lot more opinions to be had.
Speaker 3: So what I have learned, what I have learned doing
Speaker 3: too Hot to Handle is you and I could probably
Speaker 3: recap this water bottle and find things to make each.
Speaker 2: Other laugh, our safe talk shit to each other.
Speaker 3: Well that's what I learned on my time for Too
Speaker 3: Hot to Handle exactly.
Speaker 1: I agree with that you and I could recap anything
Speaker 1: at this point.
Speaker 3: So well, right now I'm recapping my Shane is looking
Speaker 3: at his watch up set walking into the show.
Speaker 2: Well, thanks you guys.
Speaker 3: We are actually having two of the Mormon Housewives on
Speaker 3: as guests, and then we will start recapping the show
Speaker 3: when it starts airing, so make sure that you stay
Speaker 3: tuned and we'll keep doing our best to entertainment.
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening, guys.
Speaker 3: M
