Hey, rain Drops. 13 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: On today's episode of The King, you all have me 14 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: all to yourselves. Yes, now, I know it's been a 15 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: minute since I did a solo episode because with a 16 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: lot going on with New Jersey, I had to bring 17 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: on special guests. So that all of you who swear 18 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: up and down I'm on Teresa Julyi's payroll, that I'm 19 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: up Teresa's ass that I bring on people. So which 20 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: one is it? Do I bring on people to talk 21 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: shit about Teresa or am I up Teresa's ass? And 22 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: I'm biased. I'm confused, child, I really I don't know 23 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: which direction or the wind that I'm blowing in. Am 24 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: my teen Teresa or a'm my anti Teresa. Look, I 25 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: know it's strange for some people to realize that. Look, 26 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: I am a real friend to Teresa. Okay, So I 27 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 1: want to talk about Jersey really fast. Although I ended 28 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: the conversation last week with David from the Behind the 29 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: Velvet Roa podcast, and we'll get into that in a second. 30 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: And then after that, you know, I want to talk 31 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: about the Real House Squash of Orange County because this 32 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: season is spectacular. I'm loving the season. Okay, first things first, 33 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: maybe you all don't understand the definition of a friendship. 34 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: I am not on Teresa's payroll. I'm on my own payroll, honey, 35 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: because I own my own company. Thank you. So now 36 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 1: she's not paying me. Okay, I'm not up Teresa's ass. 37 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: I have a mind of my own. And I said 38 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: this in nauseum that my friendship with Teresa is not 39 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: predicated on me agreeing with everything she does. I tell you, guys, 40 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: all the time that I'm one of the few people 41 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: who am who's able to really tell Teresa when things 42 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: are right, wrong or indifferent. We have that friendship and 43 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: that's why she loves me and she respects me. So no, 44 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm not on her payroll. I have an opinion, and 45 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. My opinion, Hey, Tammer, judge, my opinion is 46 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: there is no Jersey without Teresa. There is no peanut 47 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:34,839 Speaker 1: butter without jelly. There is no halt without oats. Okay, 48 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: like it is what it is. I'm sorry, and I'm 49 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: never going to like apologize, although I just said I'm sorry. 50 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm not apologizing though, I'm sorry if you all don't 51 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: understand that I have an opinion, okay about that, And look, 52 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: it's okay to disagree with me. That's why I love you, 53 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: rain drops. It's okay to disagree with me. But to 54 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: make these false accusations that I'm on her payroll, it's 55 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: hilarious and it's crazy. I strongly feel there's no Jersey 56 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: without Teresa, just like some of you all feel like 57 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: she needs to be gone. That's fine. I've had guests 58 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: on my podcasts who says she should stay. I've had 59 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: guests of my podcasts, who says she should leave? I 60 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: have guess on my podcasts, so our team, Teresa, I've 61 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: had guests on my podcast to our team, Melissa, I 62 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: am a journalist. Hey Portia, Hey Tamar Braxon. I'm a journalist, 63 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: and as a journalist, what I was trying to do 64 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: these past couple of weeks was to give you all 65 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: a different opinion from the people who are also podcast hosts, 66 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: entertainment journalists, and fans of the show, because I wanted 67 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: you all to hear a very different opinion other than 68 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: my own. Okay, and I think think I succeeded in that, right, 69 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: So there you have it. Now. Look, as of the 70 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: past couple of days, a lot of the housewives have 71 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: been on a press tour to fight for their jobs. 72 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: Child Once they were allowed to do these interviews, honey, 73 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: what's the season end? They all said, please please put 74 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: a microphone in my face so I can tell you 75 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: all about how I feel. So Margaret and Melissa went 76 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: on to teas in a pod high Tamera, High Teddy, 77 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: and pretty much try to get in front of the 78 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: story in the event that they may not be asked 79 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: back to the show. Melissa has said this verbatim and 80 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: I quote because of all the rumors that are out there, 81 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: I am fully prepared for anything. I think I would 82 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: realize that I'm gonna insert She's gonna say Teresa's name, 83 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: but I'll insert it. I think I would realize that 84 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: Teresa and I are two extremely different characters. So if 85 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: Bravo decides to go that route and kind of the darker, 86 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: whatever it is, route, then I need to say, this 87 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: is not a show that I want to be on anyway, 88 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: which it truly isn't. I do not want to be 89 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: on it. I do not want to be on that 90 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: toxic shit. So as long as she is there and 91 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,919 Speaker 1: that whole thing will come Girl, are you calling Teresa 92 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: a thing and that whole thing will come back? I 93 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't find it as a loss. Ladies, gentlemen, and they, 94 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: this is what happens when you are afraid of being 95 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: on the chopping blog and you're trying to get a 96 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: hit of the story. Melissa knows, because she's a very smart, 97 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: pretty girl, she knows that her time may be up 98 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: on this show, and like similar housewives who have come 99 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: and gone, what she is doing is trying to get 100 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: ahead of it so that if the axe comes down 101 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: on her, then she would have said, see, I told 102 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: you guys, I did not want to come back anyway, 103 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: because let's have a real conversation. Melissa enjoys the cameras 104 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: more than Kodak. I mean, it is what it is, 105 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with it. You know, there's nothing 106 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: wrong for being thirsty. There's nothing wrong but being dehydrated. 107 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with, you know, wanting the fame. It's 108 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: not every day that a middle aged woman is able 109 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: to have a second win in life, and that is 110 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: being a housewife. And this is a really big reality 111 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: gig to have. It's the biggest reality gig to have. 112 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: And we're all being honest because the moment you're a housewife, 113 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: you are instantly famous, like overnight success. You know what 114 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying. You're marinated, you know, you are stuck in 115 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: the refrigerator, honey, overnight like my oats, and you are 116 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: cooked up and you're brought out and then you get 117 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: to sprout and become a star. You are a fully 118 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: cooked star. You go from anonymity to a powerhouse in 119 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: a matter of weeks and months, and there is no 120 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: way in the world that Melissa would turn down an 121 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: opportunity to get back on that show, because there's no 122 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: difference between what happened last season when her and Theresa 123 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: where I was and Bravo said, y'all both coming back, 124 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: and you said, Okay, last season, not this one. That 125 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: rap the season before that was much more darker. So 126 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: when she talks about this toxic shit and if Bravo 127 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: wants to go the darker route, Melissa, you are the 128 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: darker route. You being on the show was a dark route? 129 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Melissa? And I like you, I 130 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: think you're pretty. You are the dark route that they 131 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: decided to cast opposite of Teresa. The show was always 132 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: hints of like mystery and darkness in a sense with 133 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: Danielle style. You know the country club and the book 134 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: and you know prostitution whore engaged seventeen nineteen times. You know, 135 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: the show was never Pollyanna. But Melissa, they didn't bring 136 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: you on the show for your outfits, like what are 137 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: we talking about? You were brought on the show because 138 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: you were a dark route that they wanted to go 139 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: down the road in to give the star of this show, 140 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: Teresa Judais you know, the main marquee moment. You have 141 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: been the dark route for the entirety of your presence 142 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: on the show. So to sit up there in front 143 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: of Tamra and Teddy and make those comments, it's just 144 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: as confusing as the NB Fashion Show. I just don't 145 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: understand it, and I find myself to be a very 146 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: smart guy. And again, I like it with people keep 147 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: it real. I love that Cynthia Bailey, for example, has 148 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: said Rabo wanted me to be a friend of so 149 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: I said no, thank you, and I walked away from 150 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: the show. You know, that's honesty. I like it when 151 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: the women are honest. Robin Dixon said, I was fired 152 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: from the show. They did not want me back. I 153 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: got fired. That's honesty. There's power in honesty. And I 154 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: think the reason why you know, it's a hard pill 155 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: to swallow, like my vitamin D take that as you may, 156 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: wink wink U double ton drum, but it's the reason 157 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: why it's a hard pill to swallow for some of 158 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 1: the people who may not like Melissa, is because we 159 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: like honesty. And I think Teresa's somebody. If Teresa was 160 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: to ever get let go up from the show. I 161 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: don't think Teresa would say, Hi, guys, love love love, love, 162 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: love you. I decided to take a break from the 163 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: show to focus on me, my kids going to college, 164 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: and Louis like, I don't see Teresa doing that. Teresa 165 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: would be like, look, Bravo did not want me. They 166 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: decided that they wanted to go in a different direction. 167 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: I thank them for the many years of being on 168 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: the show. I'm looking forward to my next chapter, like 169 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: Teresa is gonna keep it funky. And the fact that 170 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: Melissa isn't is the reason why there is this debate 171 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: in terms of does Melissa really have fans or are 172 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: Melissa fans just Teresa Hayters? Does that make sense? Like 173 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: does Melissa Gorga have fans or are Melissa Gorga fans 174 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: just Teresa Hayters who are by default fans of hers. 175 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: Because I don't understand any of this commentary, I would 176 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: have a firm Melissa say, look, I love the show. 177 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: I love doing the show. Yes, the show needs to 178 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: change if they want me and Teresa to come back. 179 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: I respect the powers that be. They know more than 180 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: I do, and I will be a willing participant in 181 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 1: trying to make the best show possible because at the 182 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: end of the day, I love this show. I love 183 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: this gig. It's a second win for me and my family, 184 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: and I want to be able to rye this bitch 185 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: into the sunset. That's what should have been said. And 186 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: when you talk to Teresa, for example, so Teresa said 187 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: this on Live with Kelly and Mark Kelly Ripper. That 188 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: is she said, no, I'm not leaving. I started the show, 189 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: and when Bravo wants me to leave, that's when I'll leave. 190 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: That's called honesty, transparency, truthfulness, that's what that is called. 191 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: So if Teresa's not asked back to the show, she 192 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: said it right there, I will leave when Bravo wants 193 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: me to leave. So that you have it there, you 194 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: have it. Should Teresa leave, Should Melissa leave? Y'all know 195 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: how I feel? Let me know in the comments. Okay, 196 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: all right, shifting gears, we have to talk about the 197 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: most recent episode of the Real Housewives of Orange County. 198 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: If you are not watching The Real Housewives of of 199 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: Orange County, you are missing out. It is a fantastic season. 200 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: It's tense across the board. There has not been one 201 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: filler episode. The star of this season goes to Gina, bitch, Yes, 202 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: Gina is I'm loving Gina. I'm loving Gina. Gina is funny, 203 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: She's she's clocked in. Gina is being authentic and funny. 204 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: Gina is like Lucille Ball. To me, Gina is funny 205 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: without even trying to be funny. She is hilarious. She's clumsy, 206 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: her outfits and her confessionals are questionable, but I love 207 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: the fact that she can own it. She is a 208 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: contradiction of herself because the way she befriended Katie and 209 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: then dissc Katie when Heather checked her, talked shit about 210 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: Emily behind her back, and then, when confronted, tried to backpedal, Like, 211 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: these are all things that I love and a complex housewife. 212 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: She is having the best season ever. Gina is the 213 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: star of the Real Housewives of Orange County this season. 214 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: She is a joy to watch. I want to see 215 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: more of her. Seriously, I've always liked her, but I 216 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: wasn't a stand right. It's kind of how I feel 217 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: about Heather bro. I don't dislike Heather Debro. I think HEATHERN. 218 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: Debro's having another great season. I think she's a great housewife, right, 219 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm not a Heather Debro stand right because you know, again, 220 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: I just spoke about Teresa Icon legend, Force Multiplier, Judies. 221 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: I like a woman who you know, stands up and 222 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: like no, this is how I feel and fuck you, 223 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: like I don't care what you think. And Heather sometimes 224 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: goes back and forth with it because she cares so 225 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: much about her image, which again, she makes a great 226 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: housewife for that. But I would have loved if she 227 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: would have said, like, look, bitch, do I call the paparazzi? 228 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: And if I do, who gives a shit? I'm a celebrity. 229 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: All celebrities do. If j Loo allegedly can call the 230 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: paparazzi while she's in the Hampton's riding a bicycle licking 231 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: an ice cream cone, then why can't me and my 232 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: husband that's on botched go to Disneyland and take a 233 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: picture as I'm pointing at a star in the sky. 234 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: That's what I will have love and have that to 235 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: have said. But I digress. Gina is the star of 236 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: the show this season. I'm loving her. The dynamic with 237 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: her and Emily is so interesting because Emily and Gina 238 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: are the Tamra and Shannon of the season in the 239 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: sense of they're real life best friends who are funny together, 240 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: but they're also able to call each other out when 241 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: they were playing pickleball. I love the fact that they 242 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: were able to have this intense conversation and then get 243 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 1: emotional about it and was able to resolve it. That's 244 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: the type of friendships this show needed, and these two 245 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: ladies are definitely the reason for the season because it's 246 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: so real and it's so amazing that I would love 247 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: to see more of that dynamic on the show. It's 248 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: it's spectacular, it really is. It really is. So shout 249 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: out to Gina, this is your best season.

They need to be able to work with 257 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: one housewife so that their bulletin on their Instagram is 258 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: able to showcase their their reach. Okay, they need a portfolio, 259 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 1: just like Tarred Banks taught the top models how to 260 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: go on a look see and get their portfolio together 261 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: so that when they leave the show they can have 262 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 1: a book of the best photos.

Baby. 268 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: I appreciate the fact that you acknowledge that silver number 269 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: was not as silber fox. Okay, it was awful, But 270 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: but you have potential. Okay, just know that. Know that, 271 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: So take the money that you're gonna make from Elizabeth 272 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 1: var Ogust, you know, selling her home, and invest in 273 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: a stylist. Okay, baby, you're welcome. Now let's get into 274 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 1: the Tamar Judge and Shannon of it all. Y'all know, 275 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: I love Tamra, but one thing about me, like Teresa, 276 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 1: I'm always going to keep it a buck. Tamar is 277 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: very harsh on Shannon, and it's uncomfortable to watch at 278 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: times because Tamra is constantly giving digs, okay, And while 279 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: I understand that, unfortunately we did not see all of 280 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 1: the history of Shannon's alleged alcohol issues the way Tamar 281 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: has as the audience. And again this is when I'm 282 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: being very fair and balanced. As the audience, we haven't 283 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: seen as much as Tamar has, okay, And I think 284 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:10,959 Speaker 1: Tamra's frustrations is rooted in love, right, because she she 285 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: has seen more. They're best friends, they hang out, they 286 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: went on tour together, So Tamra has seen way more 287 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: than we the audience have, right. But as the audience, 288 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: we look as Shannon as a wounded bird. And to 289 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: know that this person who at one time was your 290 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: best friend, who is constantly doing dig by dig by 291 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: dig it is a lot. It's it's a lot, and 292 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: at some moments it is uncomfortable to watch. And I 293 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: think what Tamra has to realize is the fact that 294 00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 1: in order for us the audience, to understand the venom 295 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: that Tamar has for Shannon, we have to be let 296 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: in in a very calm and concise way in terms 297 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 1: of what we're what she has witnessed, because all we 298 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: see is Tamra giving it to poor little Shannon. And 299 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: while Shannon isn't innocent by any means, you can tell 300 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 1: that she's going through a lot, right. She's going through 301 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: having DUI, She's going through John suing her for seventy 302 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars. She's going through not being in a relationship. 303 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: She's going through the demise of her friendship with Tamra, 304 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: and she's going through the fact that she's like, well, 305 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: fuck not gotta hang out with Heather, Like, who That's 306 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: not fun? That's that's you know, that's not fun. Heather's 307 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: not a fun girl. You know, she has nice gowns 308 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: and a nice house, but happit, the bra is not 309 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: getting on top of the naked, wasted flipping her top 310 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: and running you know, in the pool, skinny dipping. So 311 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: Shannon's going through a lot this season. And when I 312 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: look at Shannon, I do look at someone who is 313 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: trying to find their place, not only on this show, 314 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: but on this earth. I think Shannon is very sad. 315 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: So let's remove the show for a second. I think 316 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: Shannon is very sad about the state of her life. 317 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: She's an empty nester, a divorcee, and she lost a 318 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: man that she was with for many years, and I 319 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: think Shannon is lonely. And again, I'm not here making 320 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: excuses for her. But when I look at her, I 321 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: see someone who is lonely and to me, somebody who 322 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: was also crying out for help. And I think the 323 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: one thing she wants from Tamra is to yes, hold 324 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: her accountable, but also to hold her physically, physically hold 325 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: her and tell her that everything is going to be okay. 326 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 1: I think bare minimum what Shannon is yearning for is 327 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 1: for Tamor to just say to her, I have my opinions. 328 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: I don't think what you did was right. However, I'm 329 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: not going to tell you that right now because what 330 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: you don't need in this moment is another I told 331 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: you so. What you need in this moment is a friend. 332 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 1: And what I can do as your friend is take 333 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: five minutes, hold you and tell you that everything is 334 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: going to be okay. And then when the cameras are rolling, bitch, 335 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna cuss you out, you know, like, because Tamer's 336 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: gonna make good TV. Hey, there's no show without Tamer either. 337 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: Let's be very clear. Tamer's making good TV. Guys. Let's 338 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: not forget that either. Okay, she has to give us 339 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: some good things to talk about, because without Tamra, come on, now, 340 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: there's only so much work Gina can do. Okay. So 341 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: I did like the fact that Tamra and Shannon hugged 342 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: it out because I do believe that there was love 343 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: there and Shannon also and Tamar's defense and Tamar's defense 344 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: when she was fired from the show, Shannon stopped talking 345 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: to her. And that's when I tell you guys all 346 00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:01,239 Speaker 1: the time that these housewives, they're friendships are predicated on 347 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: our alliances, and that the only real friendships across all 348 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: housewives was Robin Dixon and Giselle Bryant and then you 349 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: have Marisol and Alexia from Miami Housewives. That's it. That's 350 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: the only true, genuine, I love you, die hard friendships 351 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: that without this show, we will be friends. Okay. What 352 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: Tamara's suffering through is the fact that she knows that 353 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: deep down inside, Shannon may not love her the way 354 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: that Tamara loves Shannon, and that's tough, and that's tough, 355 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: and that's very tough. My hope is that they're able 356 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,959 Speaker 1: to work it out, because what's not working out for 357 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: me so far is Katie Katie, I give your food, Baby, 358 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 1: I don't.
