doing things that are insane.
There's a difference between consoling and placating, okay?
And Shane does not understand that difference.
He just goes, fucking Jesus Christ, what are you acting like this for?
Which, you know, I think we agree with him.
Well, he hates the storyline too.
Even Shane thinks this storyline sounds.
Yeah, he said, honey, this is a bad story.
Hey now.
Hey.
You're demure.
Is that the right word?
I don't know what that word means.
Somebody goes,
is that demure?
I don't think so.
I think it means something about the physical appearance.
Demure means like an assassin.
No.
Like you're violent and sexy.
Oh.
Okay.
Yeah, well, fine.
And just get in the comments and let us know
that word. I mean, we could look it up. No, I'm pretty sure I got a handle on it. I got to tell you. I'm
Dylan. And I got to tell you, that's Pat. Hey, my life just got a whole lot better. We're talking
off, Mike. I'm so happy for you. Okay. So any parents out there will understand this. I have never had
any time to myself for the last five and a half years, even more than that before Ellie was born. And that's
hyperbolic, but no, it's not. I take your point. No, it's not. Hyperbolic, but I take your point.
Okay.
Both kids are now in school.
Elliot starts kindergarten on Monday.
Yeah.
They're busy now from 9 to 3.30 every day.
They're no longer my problem.
And then Lupita, PETA,
comes in at 3, works to 7.
Little pita bread.
No more parenting.
Thank God.
Yeah.
So you're done.
I'm done.
It's like I raised him.
And how old is,
Quentin, just for the audience?
Two years old and one month.
Okay.
So there are lessons, there are going to be lessons bestowed to them and stuff like that.
You know, I thought about doing this.
Question mark?
Because I love Lupita so much.
Okay.
I will say this into a microphone.
My wife and I, for a minute, because both our parents are...
Fucked off.
Well, they'll be dead soon.
Oh, they're not going to be raising kids.
So we contemplated putting Lupita.
on our insurance policies and not telling her.
Oh, that's a crime, though, right?
So if we both died in a helicopter crash,
the kids would be raised by Lupita
and she would know the financial windfall
that would be bestowed upon her upon our death.
Oh, sure.
Because in fear that perhaps she has some family members
that would say, hey, why don't we just rub those two people out, you know?
Oh, oh.
Off them.
Oh, so you're going to be, okay, I got it.
it. You got it? I got it. I actually quite, quite enjoy that plan. I think that's a very
demure plan. Uh-huh. Yeah. Sorry I took us on that ride. No, no, no, it's fun. Listen, I'm celebrating with
a strawberry margarita. Yeah, and I feel, I feel really horrible because Patty came in here. We've both
had nightmare mornings. I've had to pick up my car because it was hit by a food truck. I've had
exterminators coming to the house because we have ant infestations. I have my child just
hitting me in the face
my cat
scratching me in the face
it's just been a day
you've had fish die left and right
my wife convinces me
because one of my various entities
and we're going to get into the real housewives
and we'll also talk about the mysterious disappearance
of one Ruby Zebron her middle name is sea yeah we got to get to her
my wife
one of my businesses actually we don't do aquariums anymore
but we do water features
and but for like 10 years I did the aquarium stuff
like Deuce Bigelow. Anyway my wife
says there's a dirty tank in Elliott's kindergarten class and we got to volunteer. We got to show
these people that we're in and we're involved in this school. So go set up a brand new aquarium
for them and put a bunch of fish in it so that it looks beautiful for the start of the first day
of kindergarten. So I do that. That was two days ago. And you were here, Dill. I get a call from
the teachers that said all the fish are fucking dead. Yeah. So I went back there today. You don't know
what you're doing, do you? I know exactly what I'm doing. Why do you keep killing all these
fucking fish man. Listen to me. Today I'm on tour with 80 parents through the school. I walk
by the room with the fish tank in it. All the fish are dying again. Yeah. That was my morning.
I look like a loser. Why are you killing all these fish? What are you doing to these fish?
I don't know what people are doing when I'm not there is the real issue. Oh, I get it. Sure can dive.
Sure can dive. Well, yeah, I know Pat had to go in and do a quick op where he pulled a dead fish out of the tank and a kid spotted him.
What are you having your hand?
Nothing.
No, I saw it.
Shut up.
You know what?
What are you doing in here?
Shut up.
God damn.
I told the kid, I go, hey, you wonder why you're in here with me and no other kids are around?
It's because you're a loser.
Get out of here.
Yeah.
You got to be tough on these kids.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So listen, I feel bad.
Just generally.
I'm on a new Mike-and-Ike diet, or I don't eat anything but Mike-a-Dikes,
and I'm crashing out pretty hard.
My wife went on a yogurt diet, and she actually lost weight.
Oh, yeah.
Yogurt's a lot of good stuff in yogurt.
But you walked in here buzzing, right?
Mm-hmm.
Just the joyous, joyous little boy in a ruggedly handsome male's shell.
But you go, I got a buzz ball for you.
I said, no.
I don't want a fucking buzz ball, because I'm a rational agent.
you are a lunatic walking around drinking buzz balls and not even dared to do so,
just voluntarily drinking buzz balls.
So I refuse the gift.
Then you go, hey, I got tickets to the Hollywood Bowl tomorrow night.
I want you to be my dad.
I refuse the invitation.
I just feel like a jerk.
It's this mic and I died, I'm telling you.
It's fine.
It's fine.
All right, let's get into.
Explain where Ruby is.
Oh, that's right.
So get this.
Vacation wedding, Lisbon.
What?
Whoa.
Now, I want to get your opinion on this.
I'll do a destination vacation in Lisbon.
I don't know that I would do one in Monterey.
You know what I mean?
Like, if we're going to do it, let's do it.
Let's do it.
But I don't want to do this.
It's five hours away, and we got to, are we going to, it's a quick turn around, you know,
you can't justify spending a week five hours away from your house.
Not in Monterey, but you could on the, we'll turn it into, yeah, of Chevy Chase's family
adventures.
I, um, I always like when some friends of mine say that it's going to be a destination wedding.
What was that, you love that one line from, uh, family vacation where he says,
Christy Brinkley's ugly.
Yeah, I love it.
Yeah, yeah.
I forget what his name is in the, what is his name in that movie?
Oh, yeah.
It's like, Wally.
Well, they're going to Wally's world.
World.
Yeah.
But she says, why were you with that girl in the swimming pool?
Yeah.
He's like, her?
She's ugly.
Yeah.
Chevy Chase.
Okay.
So in Ruby's absence.
I feel that we should read a review that really, you know, takes issue with her.
Okay.
She listens.
Does she?
Yeah.
Oh, actually, this one says five stars.
I'm happily married man, but Ruby seems good with her man.
I have no idea what she looks like, please.
Yes, you do.
Isn't it crazy that Ruby and me are brother and sister?
Because she's so beautiful and I look like a goddamn.
You're a good looking guy.
Well, not in my current form.
My God, can I glow up?
But not in my current form.
I look like a rabbi right now.
No, you don't.
Oh, Dill, we got a one star.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Jesus Christ.
We don't need to bore the audience with the one stars.
No, no, they like it.
Now charging.
Question mark, question mark.
This is from a former fan, I think.
I recognize this name.
Mock Sling.
Okay.
Why do we need to entertain the musings of lunatics?
We don't need to.
You know what?
I'm vetoing this.
I don't want to hear from this nutbag.
I want to hear this review as badly as I want to go around the corner and talk to those filthy bums out there about how hot they are.
I don't want to do either. Can I please, will you respect the veto, please?
Yes, I will.
All right.
Let's get into the real, and there are a lot of bums out there.
I mean, there's more bums.
They're coming back.
You know, I have an ant infestation in my home right now, and it's because there's a lack of caulking in all of these different areas, right?
How do you caulk a city?
You know, how do you prevent, I feel bad for them because it's 100 degrees outside.
They must be very hot.
But they refuse water.
They don't want it.
They want drugs.
They want drugs.
Dill, I'll tell you what we do.
We put flamethrowers in just 10 hands of regular citizens and we allow them to walk
around the city.
And they just, every once in a while, spout off like, I don't know, it shoots like 20 feet.
Oh, yeah.
I don't want them to hit the homeless encampments.
I just want it to be very good.
close.
Well, we have fire hazard problems, so I'm not sure if that is actually a great idea.
But a purge evening might be good, might be good.
Yeah, axes can't start fires.
We're just kidding.
They, well, I'm not, axes can't start fires.
I'm not kidding about that.
All those people out on the street still are just people that lost their job last week.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
All right.
So listen.
You know, they really bend at the hip.
And they bend at the hip forward.
When they start bending backwards,
I'm going to be like, all right, are we paying attention?
Are we paying attention?
That's right.
Okay, so Real Housewives of Orange County.
Let me go first.
Of course.
Some people came in late in the game and suggested some new rating systems.
And I'd like to think.
Better than Tits?
Oh, yeah.
Really?
I have it.
And when I say it, I wish Ruby was here.
Yeah.
We're going to start using it.
Well, I'll see it because Tits is pretty undefeated.
let me throw it out there at you and i think it's instantly going to hit you do you have the name of
the person that recommended these great ratings i don't but i can look at it the rating system
you're an art thief that's what you are is how many fatty photos oh i love that that's really really
good how many fatty photos do you wow fatty photos mm-hmm yeah it's an alliteration a little bit of a
forced one and f and a ph but that's great um the the young sung hero that
took the time to think of that and post it in our Patreon.
Oh, yeah.
Reveal yourself once again.
Oh, definitely.
And I'll give you a shout out next episode.
Think about how many un-sung heroes we've had.
Someone came up with shoulder tabs.
Somebody invented the freaking goddamn telephone and then, you know, these fat cats come
around and they steal it, you know?
Unsung hero.
Dill, do you ever think in the world, like, you can't understand certain, like, technology,
like how does things go up into space like I'm talking my voice it goes up to a satellite and it gets
sent somewhere else and we can do that but we can't cure cancer no no we can't
Patrick we can and we never went to space Patrick come on yeah but we're talking on cell phone still
oh no listen Bluetooth Bluetooth is pure fucking magic it just is how is this crong
song playing from my computer in the other room. It's literally sorcery.
Sorcery. Dill, I have a cell phone that I put in my Tesla on the, just like in this little
placeholder. And it charges it magically. You don't need to plug it in. Well, that's Elon demon work.
And I told you not to get that car because they were going to shit on your wheel well.
These wokes. Here's what I want to put these people to work. I want to live forever. And I want my brain
put in a good looking person's head.
you're not going to have the capital um before you're dead that'll be reserved for the
lesion class but who knows ellie or ellie's kids it'll be like a god damn it'll be like
twenty two dollars ride yeah you want a new head yeah of course i want a new head yeah of course
i want a new head group on it'll still be around you get group odds for it long lasting company
been around for 150 years all right back to yes please fatty photos i loved this episode did
You really? Yes, because of the little twist at the end. Tamrat's all like wrapped up in like my friends. First off, Tamara, you don't have friends. Hey, do me a favor. Shut your demon mouth. You have people that you work with on a show that despise you and understand your game now. Let me say, let me say something real quick. Good friends. Well, this is more for guys, but I think it applies to women too. They'll talk shit about you to your face and gas you up behind your back. Tamara does the,
exact opposite. Those are not friends. They're enemies. Okay. They're, uh, co-workers. Yeah,
yeah, they're co-workers. Okay. Tamrat is an awful person, but Katie is a sketchy bitch.
I've been, the tail into this, I hope everybody's watching this like I do. Katie will lie to the end.
I just put his fingertips on his heart. So hear the honesty in this. That means, I don't.
mean it yeah katie says did you uh give that rumor to kiki the blogger no you know i wouldn't do that
then at the tail end of the episode with her and that uh pussbag of a husband or her man off bro yeah
well slay and gretchen told us yeah uh that she drugged her yeah and then she then katie
stares at the camera and says she told me that so what's that mean katie yeah yeah
Then you were obliged to call Kiki, the influencer?
Yeah, yeah.
Katie is a horrible person, and she is not good at this.
No, no, she's not.
She's a tornado.
But she's great TV.
She's a tornado of stress and deceit.
It's just, you know.
Not good at covering her tracks.
Anyway, she's the best part of this show.
Matt, watch out for yourself, run, because she will have you killed
for insurance money.
She'll wait until the show's over.
I'm going to give it,
I'm going to give it 38.
What's our rating system?
Tits.
No.
Faddy photos.
Faddy photos.
That's a pretty high score.
Yeah.
It was a great episode.
Yeah.
Really good episode.
So listen, I was,
I'm always very confused.
I feel as though the housewives of Orange County
have the most convoluted
storylines
even this one
you know it's just like
Gretchen's lying
Katie's lying
Tamara always lies
but she's telling the truth
it's like a game of clue
that I don't care about winning or playing
right
with that being said
Shannon Bador
Shannon Bador
Shannon Bador
I mean just always looks like she got into a bar fight
always
Some of the kids say
She's tore up from the floor
Oh, she's a mess
The fact that she can't get out of bed
Before noon to make a call time
She's a fucking mess
She should be ashamed of herself
And her daughters are drinking now
Well, her daughters are having fun in Europe
Apple doesn't fall far from the drunken tree
She's going to make a bunch of little drugs
Yeah, this tree is made for cider, right?
Okay, I thought it was a horrible episode
two pots.
No.
How many fatty photos?
60 fatty photos.
Okay.
Also, sorry, honorable mention to Meatball.
Meatball, you are finding your own.
You picked up the baton this episode.
You tracked down Kiki.
I mean, I would have called her.
That would have been my first step and said,
who gave you the information?
Meatball did it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Meatball's having an okay season.
Meatball brought back gator gifts
for a gate.
or gift shop gifts that's what you bring back to your family meatball that is such a meatball
move you know what i would do same thing i did with that buzzball i would go you know what
it's not for me you defer i would defer well no i would refuse i would outright refuse so uh i
looked up OC i punched in OC in the peacocks you know there was a show called tamers osse
wedding yeah marringetti well they're not married anymore uh her and eddie yeah they are
I thought they were on the fritz.
I thought you made a big...
Well, they're not disclosing that.
But no, I mean, there was a time where we'd pay to see Bachelor people in their wedding.
Oh, yeah.
There was a spinoff of O.C where the, I think it was the second season from O.C.
Their children had their own reality TV.
Well, we've got it now, next gen, you or whatever the fuck it's called.
It's like hard knocks, but for little bitches.
Okay.
So I want, I went ahead and I skipped the...
recap because L.O. L.L. Tamara quit the show. You got to be fucking kidding me.
Dill, I want credit to me. Who cares? Okay. I want, um, credit to me because Tamrat has done this
before and I even figured it out. I was like, it was in Bali. She ran past a swimming pool.
She announced she was done. Uh-huh. And she ran away from cameras and said, don't fill me in.
I iconic moment. Iconic moment. Okay. And I recalled that before Emily and Shannon Bador discussed it on
this episode.
Yeah, well, Tamara is back on the show quicker than she ever, ever was.
The sun rises, as it always does, unless it's kind of like snuffed out by a super
volcano, in which case, everything would be gray and choked out.
But the sunrises today on these bad shit women.
Jennifer is speaking to her voodoo doll, and she gives Ryan a ring.
He's wearing a hair hamlet.
You know, I was going to give him shit, but I'm bolding now in a very serious way.
No, you're not.
Oh, no, I am.
The problem with Ryan isn't balding.
It's that jet black hair.
Yeah, it's too dark.
It's too dark.
I want to say this.
The voodoo doll thing, I think Jen has this wrong.
The idea is not to name a voodoo doll after yourself.
It's to name a voodoo doll of one of your enemies and then poke at.
That's a really, really astute observation.
Yeah, it's almost like Jen is kind of an airhead and miss the,
entire purpose of the whole thing. So, um, we, we get to, oh, well, I would just say to Ryan,
you know, maybe cool it on the jet black hair, but in terms of hanging on to it, do whatever
you can, you little criminal. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Look like Jermaine Jackson, like, like you
spray painted your head, you lose her. Yeah. Um, I want the audience. You don't, you shouldn't
use flex seal, Ryan. On your, no, no, that's, on your head. That's the glue things.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Together in seal things. Um, uh, uh, oh, oh, yeah.
Drink every time you hear Ryan tell Jen he can't wait to bang her.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Drink every time.
And do you think they're banging?
No.
I think they're probably banging.
Gretchen also hops on the phone to talk to her husband,
who is bearing an uncanny resemblance to Nick Offerman.
Gretchen goes through the whole thing,
and even Slade is like, give me a fucking break.
Tamara's cut the quitting the show.
Get the fuck out.
out of here. What are we even talking about this for? We're going to be heading out and we're going
to be seeing gaiters. We are, but before we do, we do stop at one last place. What's out?
Shannon Bador's hotel room. That's right. Tor up from the floor up. When everyone that sees you
could say that you've pretty much polished off every nip in the mini bar at the hotel,
that's when you've got to start looking in the mirror. Not only the mini bar, but there's checks,
mex everywhere and it also kind of looks like I mean doesn't it look like she got into a
a viral fight at IKEA every time we see her she looks like she was fighting for a parking spot
at ikea and i got out of hand yeah yeah well her and emily chat and she says that uh
she needs to begin to manifest things that she desires sure and she manifests a loving husband
in her future, but she should probably be manifesting a new liver because that one's going to
shit out on her. Well, livers are fragile. Livers are fragile. So Bador, like we said, is
struggling. And we find out that Tamara told Bador, her best friend, to come up to the room
without cameras. And to Bador's credit, she said, fuck off. Go fucking sleep that Xanax off.
Right. You pig.
Guys, listen, before we get back to the episode,
I want to tell you about an amazing sponsor, Loomy Gummies.
Oh, I love Loomy.
Imagine if Edibles just made you feel good instead of too high.
Imagine if they were consistent, mellow, and super delicious.
Loomie Gummies are specifically designed to make you feel good, not stoned.
Okay?
Listen, this stuff is way too strong nowadays.
Not with Loomie.
Lumi is a call, a call to antebellum.
When we used to just take time to be with ourselves.
Let me step in here.
I don't like being super high.
Oh, and I'm not saying antebellum, like slavery.
No, no, no.
The audience didn't think that.
Old Patty used to push away from like cannabis products.
Yeah.
Because I didn't like being paranoid, weird.
Loomy doesn't do that.
And now with my little one, I got to tell you, I don't get a lot of really good sleep.
And I have to supplement it with caffeine.
So you get into the latter stages of the day and you're just not ready to get there.
but you need it.
You know what helps me tremendously?
Lumi Gummies plumberry runs.
Just one 5 milligram gummy gummy gummy, an hour before bed.
And this Indicatri, it sends me straight to Drensville.
I wake super well rested without any grog in it, too.
Me too, dude.
I sleep a great night's rest.

Thank you, Rula.
And I got to tell you, I know exactly what Tamara was trying to do.
That was a strategy meeting.
That was a fucking, that was a strategy.
That was a strategy meeting
That she wanted to have
That was, I don't want the cameras on
This is what we're going to do
I need you to do this
I'm going to do this for you
You know
She didn't want to use that time
To rummage around the room
To pick up any last liquid
At the bottom of it
No, no I'm said
Well, Shannon Bador definitely was
But Tamara was going to attempt
To do a little stratego
Okay
Forgive me
Yeah
So the two groups of ladies
Do you imagine
Walks in there
And there's that like
Fucking Game of Thrones
Like board of war
around and Tara is like, I need you to fucking pay attention. Okay. I am. Okay. So the two groups
of ladies head out. Me ball is wearing a Mr. T-inspired jewelry setter blowing around her. Yeah.
I think her stylus is either blind or dead. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Mr. T is dead. No, he's still alive.
No. Mr. T. Still alive. What's he up to? Uh, selling, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
General's insurance, I think, the last time.
Oh, okay.
I thought you were going to say skadoos.
So anyways, we head over to the Alligators.
And in the car, we talk Hiki Minogue.
And again, we're going to see Gators.
So this is actually very super dangerous.
You know, all of these women have a lot of animosity towards one another.
And you could shove somebody in.
They could get death spiraled.
You know what I'm talking about?
Oh, yeah.
I do want to say, on the way there, is this one meat,
Meatball, now a crusader of truth, announces that she talked to the journalists.
Yeah.
And the journalist said that Katie is a sketchy bitch.
And Tamrat was right all along, correct?
Was that an oversight on your part?
I just want to make sure I'm not stepping on your toes.
No, it wasn't an oversight.
I think we were going to get to it,
but it is important that this is the most important thing that happens in this car ride
is that Meatball says I've been doing a little detective.
Thank you, Meatball.
Someone's doing their work on the show.
And then, meanwhile, we have Shannon Bador, and we get a Chiron that says incoherent crying.
You know when we have a real drunk on our hands.
S.B. couldn't get it together for that call time.
Sorry, I already did that joke.
Even Judy Garland was awake at noon, bitch.
And she was a fucking drug addict.
Well, Shannon Bador calls Gina, and Gina answers the phone.
And Shannon Bador says, hey, it's Shannon Bador.
And you don't need to do that because of, you know, how phones work nowadays.
what with the iOS montereys and savannas and you know alpaca i don't know what they're on now
but um she starts to weep on the phone and uh she's in the throes of a panic attack yeah also called
being hungover okay so i want to talk about this really quickly and uh you know i don't want to
sound like a boomer or anything like that but my fuck have we gotten soft or what so you
got a DUI and almost plowed your dog through the front windshield. So what? People have gone
through worse than that. Johnny Jansen sued you for a little bit of money. All right. We're having
panic attacks? I mean, my God, Shannon Bador. She's hung over. She's so long over. People that have
panic attacks, not everybody, but if you were drinking all last night until 3 a.m., and you were
finding yourself falling asleep on the rug, and you wake up, when you're having anxiety, it's because
you're hungover.
Okay.
I mean, by the way, I have to stop drinking before I'm like 55 because I don't want to look
like this.
This is so pathetic.
You're not aesthetically just like your life is in ruin.
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
Her coming over, dropping the makeup in the car.
Sorry.
It's a tough look, man.
You spend your whole life trying to be a good human being and not look like a fuck up.
And then you end up on this show, you know.
Andy Cohen takes souls.
You know the, you know the July 4th, hot talk eating contest?
Nathan's hot talk eating contest.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Joey Chestnut wins.
Joey Chestnut, yeah.
Imagine what the floor looks like after that contest.
That is the most accurate metaphor I can use to describe Shannon's life.
Wet buns, remnants of tupped meat on top of concrete,
hot, hot concrete all over the place.
That is what Shannon Bador's life looks like right now.
And again, I don't understand why.
The storm is beyond us.
The sun is shining.
Let's not have panic attacks.
Your kids are adults.
They're healthy.
They're engaging with the world.
Things are going great.
You're macking with, you know, a couple of different guys, you know,
from Hotel Love or whatever the fuck it was.
All right.
So we get to see the gators there in the bio.
And this fan boat tour place really striking fear into the customers.
Now, what they've done here is a dirty little sales tactic, okay?
We pumped the blood up by taking a cast of the biggest alligator we've ever seen in these parts.
Then you get on the tour, there are these little piece of shit fucking alligator.
Nobody's scared of these fucking things.
I'll kick one of those in the fucking face.
Get out of here, baby gator.
In fact, the alligators are so small, the cast takes to making jokes.
Katie points out
size matters, right?
Good one, Katie.
Yeah.
And then the tour guide points out
that male alligators breed,
and then they take off.
Yeah.
Sounds like someone else we know, Katie.
Just sketchy bitch.
Big time.
Yeah, you know,
this is how scared I am of crocodiles.
And listen, the big ones are scary, right?
But if I did kick a little one,
even if it was trying to accost me
I'd feel horrible
oh yeah don't kick animals
I'd feel horrible
well you gotta kick sometimes
yeah
the rhino my neighbor's Yorkshire terrier
I'll kick that fucking thing
I'll kick that thing over my fence
I genuinely I don't care
we've never had more animosity
towards an animal in my life
that little Yorkshire
especially when they bite you
high brow fucking high strong piece of shit
fuck you rhino
All right, so, Heather doesn't like it.
Heather doesn't like wind.
Heather doesn't like moving too fast.
She wants to be drinking champagne.
And I think they cleared on that house under what she had hoped.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I think she wanted 20 and I think they came in at 16.8.
Let us know in the comments.
That means they broke even or lost money.
I think they either, I would want to make money on that, right?
Because it's a, what is it a bear market, bull market?
I don't know what the fuck kind of market it is.
but the home prices are up.
And if you sink all that time and energy in,
at least come up out in the black
so that you're compensated for the time and the energy
that you put into it.
You don't want to just break even.
That's quite literally just a waste of time.
When you say put work into it,
you and I work.
We drive to places and we do things.
Heather DeBrow reads an email,
shows up at the property that they're renovating for five minutes,
points at some things.
Yeah.
And says, do this.
if you can.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
And then leaves and goes and does whatever.
Yeah.
I wouldn't call that work.
Yeah.
Forgive me.
What's Heather doing in their downtime?
Just chronically fucking jerking off?
Can I tell you something?
Okay.
So I've been in a lot of rich people's houses during the day,
like during the week.
They don't do a lot.
They watch a lot of TV.
Oh,
yeah.
And then they like look at Tass like they're like a lot of work,
but they're not like,
oh,
I got to read some memes.
I got to go over some bids.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they'll spend like three hours going over bids.
Oh, sure.
Bids are tough.
You got to really get through the fine details.
But listen, let's get to Luke and his RFID.
Do we have to?
I don't think this is a storyline.
No, and we're going to get there later.
So let's get to the bourbon house, actually.
Leo pitches the ladies on some oysters.
Great guy.
He says, they came out of the water two days ago.
Leo, I don't know that you want to do.
buffer in 48 hours between the hard. Don't do that. And people have this misconception,
like a lot of sushi is not fresh. It's frozen and cured and stuff like that. But when you're
trying to pitch, you can smell these ladies from a mile away. I mean, these are pocket
protector, OC, rich, sketchy bitches, you know, don't, just say that we just got them out of the
water. Just, you know, just lie. Gina almost dies on one while Emily and Heather are fighting about
snapping and the appropriateness of snapping.
So we bring up the crazy Kiki Monique story.
And Gina, as we mentioned, did a little detective work called Kiki herself.
And Katie lands herself in another one of these pincer moves where she is being accosted on all
fronts, the way Hitler was, and I'm not saying Katie is as bad as Hitler.
No.
but she does remind me of Hitler in World War II a lot in this situation
and all Hitler had to do was call the blogger
and clear this whole thing up.
But can't do that if you're caught red-handed, right?
Oh, you mean Katie calling the blogger?
Yeah, Katie calling the blogger.
Yeah, because she's a sketchy bitch.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She did it.
I can't believe her.
I know.
She, I know.
It's pretty crazy.
Because does the audience, do you think the audience understands how sketchy she is?
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
But because this is such a passive viewing experience,
um,
her craziness is,
is by default kind of passive.
She's doing so much.
It's a little bit like traders,
which we're covering at patreon.com slash another podcast network.
You get to the first roundtable and you're telling everybody,
everybody had a vote. You're getting on a soapbox. It's like, you don't need to do that.
Chill out. There's plenty of time here. So, Dill, just to get back to this moment, this is when
even Jen, passive Jen is like urging Katie, call Kiki. Call Kiki. And then we start to get these
murmurs of a dinner that Jen and Katie had with Gretchen and Slade at Mastros. And evidently,
that is where Gretchen told the girls that she went to the hospital the next morning. And
and that there were drugs in her system via a toxicology report, okay?
Now, a lot of this doesn't add up.
No.
Okay?
You're not going to get a toxicology report on, I don't know, a body that's still working,
who is slightly hung over.
Well, they will take a, because some workplaces require this.
You're going to take a blood test?
Well, when I own the tour company, they'd have our drivers just randomly have to take urine tests.
It would take like three days to get the results back.
You can test for roofies?
You can test for like cocaine or pills or whatever.
Oh, yeah.
That's true.
Or weed.
Weed really sticks around.
Trust me.
You know, I was interviewing for a waiter position at El Cabierro Country Club.
I had it in, right?
Mom called a friend in.
Said this kid needs a job.
19?
17, 18.
he said we need to piss test you i said i don't know if that's going to work
head of the dining room goes listen it's not a problem i'm going to talk to the secretary
she's going to tell you a solution to get go to the head shop get it you'll pass the test
all right no problem i talked to my stoner friend he goes don't fucking do that you're going to
fail it you got to get a bag of fake piss i think i've told the story before you go into the
the stall and this guy.
They're not there with you.
He is there with me.
He's standing right in front of me looking at my penis, my little tiny penis.
For a waiter position at a goddamn country club?
I mean, what am I interviewing for the fucking CIA?
Get out of here.
The drug tester is not associated.
They're a third party.
Well, still.
It ensures accuracy on your piss test.
Well, still, okay, it should say on the top of the thing, you know, just waiting.
I'm going to say something crazy that I did in the tour.
days. His name was, I'm going to change his name because I assaulted him. He took a drug test
and I got the test back three days later. I let him drive the tour bus that day. And they said
inconclusive based on it's not urine. And I asked him, I said, what do you think it is? And they said,
the person that took the test thinks it was gatorade. Yeah. When I saw this motherfucker, not only did I
fire him. He was on his 10 speed bicycle, and I kicked him while he was on it.
That's fine. I said, you could kill children. Then he went and worked for the tour company down
the street. I went over there and got in the tour company owner's face. I'm like, get rid of this
fucking guy. He could kill it. He ruin us all. Yeah. Pete.
Paul.
All right. Let's get back to what everybody has come here for. Our hard hitting comedic recap of Bravo's
Real house lives of Orange County.
All right.
So we wrap up this dinner, okay?
And we get back from New Orleans.
Meatball brought back the Gator gift.
Like I said, bad gift.
Meatball, let's pick it up.
And then we get to therapy with this fucking nutbag, okay?
Tamara went to Big Bear to isolate,
but needed to go to therapy to process these emotions, okay?
And I was thinking about, just imagine this therapist.
and I know we've talked about this before,
but imagine this therapist.
Tamara sits down and says,
Jen was yelling at me.
Beatball was yelling at me.
And I don't know what to think.
And this therapist just sits there with her clipboard
and Tamara's file and just talks it through with her.
The patience of this woman is really unbelievable.
Now, we hear from Tamara that, and we cut back,
to Tamara calling Teddy.
And Teddy's incredibly rude voicemail sets Tamara off,
and she takes the Xanax and then starts to get black-and-struck, okay?
Can we talk about Teddy's voicemail for a second?
Hi, you've reached Teddy's phone.
Don't leave a voicemail?
I understand that you're sick, but I mean, what kind of lunatic leaves?
That's the outgoing message?
Don't leave a voicemail?
My God, just don't set it up.
Here's the other thing.
Those two have never stopped doing their podcast.
She sees Teddy every week.
Yeah.
Well, Tamara has two stories this episode.
She was driven to the pills because she was so upset by Teddy and her voicemail.
And two, the other tale is that she knew it was going to be a stressful dinner
because she was bringing this thing up to Gretchen.
Now, Tamara always traffics and half-truths.
That's why she's tough to pin down.
Both can be true.
But she does tell two different versions of this story.
She is a
She is a fox
Taking it to the grave
All right
So her biggest fear is rejection
And I want
You know how we were all cheering
For Dick Cheney's cardiologist
To just nick a fucking valve
Yeah
Most were
Yeah
I understand that
I want this therapist
To call her a narcissist
On national television
She won't
Because it's a conflict of
What people want
She wants to keep getting a paycheck.
Yeah.
Like Howard Stern has had a therapist for 30 years.
Yeah.
And he's now going to that therapist three times a week.
Somehow Howard keeps getting worse.
Yeah.
It sounds like Howard just wants somebody to talk to.
That's paying for friends.
That's what that is.
That's not therapy.
All right.
Let's get to Hannah and what?
No, Emily and the picky eater.
This is a little tricky because Shane acts like a little rat bitch to,
Emily, but he's also 100% right. So he is very cold and standoffish with Emily, who is just
really scared about this. And all you need to do is a husband is recognize that your partner
in life needs you. They need you to console them. What if they're saying and doing things that are
insane? There's a difference between consoling and placating. Okay. And Shane does not understand that
difference. He just goes, fucking Jesus Christ, what are you acting like this for? Which, you know, I think we
agree with him.
Well, he hates the storyline, too.
Even Shane thinks
this storyline sucks.
Yeah, he said, honey, this is a bad
storyline.
This is a really bad storyline.
But the thing that Emily said that drove me
a little bit nuts, she's like, this is all on me.
This is everything to do with this
is just on me.
Emily, you just went to New Orleans for four days.
Like, what are we talking about?
Okay.
My goodness, gracious.
This storyline is, it is bad.
So, Heather.
H.D.
and Tamrat for lunch.
The meeting of the minds.
Oh, Tamrat shares how Gretchen told her in the vans.
She did go to the hospital.
Wait, no, Tamrat, is this correct or not?
She tells Heather that Gretchen told her that she did not go to the hospital.
Naked wasted.
And then Tamara says that she knew the dinner was going to be stressful.
That's why she took his annex.
And Heather attempts to tell her that she feels insulted.
that Tamara ignored all of her text messages and then went and did a podcast before getting
back to her. And of course, this is criticism or vulnerability levied at Tamara.
So she will flip out and come close to calling Heather a stupid bitch before Heather
just backs off because Tamara goes to the water well. Oh, Teddy. Oh, Teddy. And then HD,
of course, being media trained has to go, you know, sometimes I don't know. Sometimes I don't
agree with Tim, but, uh, you know, she's going through some stuff like that.
A little Tam Tam. Tam brings up, uh, Teddy. I know that there's no more of this conversation
we can have. That's right. That's how TV works. All right. Let's get to die bar night. Yeah.
Biggest mistake of the night. How's your kids, Emily? Oh, wow. Uh, she spends like five minutes
talking about it. Um, and I think all of us are like, wow, wow, who gives a fuck?
Well, I thought it was very, very interesting.
You know, Jen is trash, right?
So she'll suck down Malibu and Coke or Diet Coke everywhere she goes.
But the second she steps inside of an establishment wherein you would order a trash pig drink like that, she gets instead a super dirty martini.
Yeah.
What is going on?
That's so confusing to me.
Obviously, you don't order a martini at a place that looks like that.
bud light you order if there are pool tables you don't get craft cocktails or traditional cocktails
you get a bud light and you wipe the top of the can off so we get to katy and matt
katy's also drinking it super dirty martini and this is where katy and matt collectively gaslight
the audience okay they're great tv because i hate both of them yeah the two of them together
said this is what they do katy went to kiki manique and she
She told them about what Gretchen said.
Right.
But Katie implies the reason she did that is because Gretchen told her.
Right.
So she moves the goalpost from her making it up and telling Kiki Monique to her not making it up and telling Kiki Monique.
Don't forget that first step.
She did not tell Kiki Monique anything.
Right.
The goalpost started there.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
Katie, you're a sketchy bitch.
But also there's this little kernel that I don't think has popped quite yet, wherein Slade told her to tow the party line.
So, again, this is a game of clue that is just too cumbersome.
I mean, everybody somehow, someone took, put stuff like three hammer cards in the envelope
and nobody knows what's going on, right?
As much as I can't stand, Tamrat, I feel like she's already been punished a little bit this season.
I want Katie to get her comeuppance.
Katie, when are you going to be like, you know what?
I accept defeat.
She's like a cockaroach
in a nuclear winter.
