Bros & Shows - Are There Any Non-Horse Poop Options on Your Menu? (RHOA Full Recap)

Episode Date: May 13, 2026

What's up bros?? Heading on back down to Dallas to check on the ladies after the incestuous teeth argument; it seems we've maybe woken up on the right side of the bed (in the big house) while the complainers continue to complain about their quarters. While one group seems to be having the time of their life, the other is quite held up on Kelli & Shamea's blaming of the situation on Cynthia but also totally not on Cynthia. Thankfully, instead of just complaining from afar, Kelli seems to be front and center of the action moving forward with Porsha and the rest of the crew. Learn more about your ad choices.

As you know, as everybody knows, Beverly Hills is over. Thank God. And I know I'm starting this episode out by referencing it, but it's only to say, we have only good shows on right now. And Atlanta is awesome. I'm so excited to discuss this episode. This one was more of a filler app. This wasn't a crazy app, and I still enjoyed it start to finish.

Yeah, I feel like Sunday night was a big filler up in the episode type of situation going all between our two shows. And they were both great. Like it just shows you what we can do with good franchises and good cast. If it's just a filler episode, it's still a lot of fun. There's still a lot going on that we can discuss. And that's what we want. I don't even know what a filler episode looks like.

You know what? I'm not even going to mention. I'm not even saying to B.H. As there's a drive in a deep left field by Castellanos. Oh, man, it's 8 o'clock. And so that'll make it a. I don't need the spotlight. I shine just fine.

Hi, I'm karma. And yes. I am a bitch. Brov Bros. Good evening, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of Bravo Bros. Your favorite podcast from the Bros. For everybody, for whoever wants to listen.

I'm your co-host, Steele Russell, joined as always by the one and only Stockyard Magdux. What's it, dude? We're going down to Texas. We're going to eat some beef. And is there a vegan option? No. It probably is something on the menu you can eat. That was so dumb.

That was dumb. You're the outlier in the group. You can't. expect to go to a vegan restaurant because one of five people are vegan. That's ridiculous. Yeah. Yeah, I'm fully with you on that one. It just, that's, that whole scene just cracked me up because there's no sympathy from the crowd. Like, uh, whatever, like, figure it out. That's what it is. You chose this life. You got to figure it out. Now, obviously, you know, there's other extenuating circumstances. If you have to go for that diet, then you have to figure it out. But I would

gather that people who maybe have health issues that have to go to the vegan diet probably have other options. You could be like Alicia and just carry crackers everywhere. I mean, that seems to work for her. She loves a cracker. She loves crackers. What does she say in this episode? We're going to recover that next.

You know, I love a cracker. Yeah, like seven times. If I didn't know who Alicia was, I don't know why we're talking about Rhode Island, but it's fun. If I didn't know who Alicia was, I would have, immediately gather that she is trying to land some sort of sponsorship. It's like watching Love Island again, where people are just talking about different things that they want to do sponsorships with. Alicia has no idea.

She just loves a Cracker. Yeah, I just love a Cracker. You know, I'm sad now because the crackers are all the way over there. That's a direct quote. Hey, are you guys happy or sad today? Well, I'm pretty happy today, but I'm pretty sad that those crackers are over there. All right. Thank you.

I can't wait to cover that. But I'm also excited to cover this. Let's just jump right into this episode. And we start out with a little phone call from Derek and Pinky. And it's, it's a very quick, quick moment. But she references Angela, the draft is what she calls her. Okay. So I'm just trying to get all of the details as we move through this thing to see.

Obviously, we know Angela historically will hold on to things. She'll put, she'll table something to be like, we're good. But she keeps it in her pocket. I don't know if she's going to pull it out. She doesn't always pull it out. sometimes she really just does move on. Yeah. I think he seems like she's looking for smoke.

That's the vibe I'm getting. I actually really enjoyed this. I think it was Drew that said it later in the episode. By the way, I have a really good synopsis on Drew, and I think it's going to help you to enjoy her. So when we get to, it's typically, or specifically, it's the scene between her and Cynthia when they're in bed a little bit later. So like midway through.

I'm going to break down what I think you should be looking at, because I feel like I have to do this every episode now because I know it's coming. It comes in like probably seven or eight minutes into the episode. We have to start talking about Black being a friend and you're going to be irritated. We're going to have to do that whole thing again. But I'll wait until we get there. But with Pinky, I love it because Drew even said, she's like, yeah, you know, that Baltimore comes out. I'm like, that's not a bad description.

Like we get lumped in. Philly gets lumped in with the Baltimore crowd. So I would understand if she said Philly too. But yeah, I do think that she is looking for the smoke. I don't know if it's a defensive nature. I have no idea yet. But I do think when we kind of pair a lot of her scenes up when she's talking to, she's talking to Kelly a little bit later about like being self-made and having a business.

She's got that vibe to me almost like a manda on Beverly Hills where it's like, if you're going to even mention my business, I'm in defense mode. It's like, oh, why? If you're very successful, then why are you so defensive? And we know there's a lot of things going on. There's lawsuits. There's bankruptcies. So I understand if it's just.

this situation and where she is now currently, that she is defensive, that's fine. And if we find that out later, then obviously I'll excuse it because I can't imagine going through all of that. But if this is who she is and she just defends her businesses to her death, and it's a little embarrassing, then that's one thing.

We're starting to get the composition of Pinky. And we're trying to figure out who she is, what she's going to bring to the show, more importantly. And she might just be the type of person that's looking for some smoke. So I think, now that we've talked through this whole thing, one great call with the Amanda comparison.

That's actually very interesting because they are in different positions business-wise, but because Amanda's business is always under scrutiny because she scams people out of money allegedly, she's always defensive. Pinky would be equally defensive if her business is starting to go down the drain or she's losing money. That makes a lot of sense to me.

Good call. My other thing, when I think about why she's on go all the time, it could simply be I she doesn't strike me as somebody that's hung out with a lot of women in her like just like someone yeah and I don't think she's been ingratiated into like a girls group in the past so she could just have the walls up a lot like thinking also coming into a housewife show where she's like oh they're going to come after me I got to be tough I got to let them know they can't fuck with me if you put all that together you know build up those walls and you're in defense mode.

One about the business, too, because you're not used to being in a group of women. That would also potentially explain why she's defensive all the time, no? No, it absolutely would. And when it comes down to the conversation and the very entertaining back and forth that we have between her and Angela, I want to focus a little bit on Angela too, because the way that you just described her, like, yeah, she might put it in her back pocket. She might bring it out later. She might not.

I honestly, I look at her as either a producer's nightmare or a producer's dream date. She does a lot of things that make things go. And sometimes I could see that getting in the way. I could see that being stuck in certain situations where it's like, okay, come on, Angela. We've already talked about this. You said you were over it. You can't bring it back up.

But this instance where she gets Pinky riled up and she immediately does that. And she says, you look a little bothered. That's just a probing question just to see if she is bothered. And she clearly was. But that then shows who Pinky is. And I feel like the majority of the episode when we're talking to the other women about what their take was on all of that. and Cynthia talking about how you've got the frickin frack part two over there in the pool house that are still complaining about the house.

Pinky brought that to everybody's attention and she was upset about it. So I think a lot of people who didn't really know Pinky that well, who are still getting to know her, got a glimpse as to who she can be. And I think that's kind of a mainstay. And that wouldn't have happened without Angela. So I do think that Angela does a lot of things. She plants these seas and she tries to get reactions out of people in certain situations. And I don't really think she gives a shit. I think she just wanted to see how she would react.

So it's almost like a probing question, like an interview type of thing. Yeah, that's fair. I think Angela, I love Angela. I think she is just top-notch TV, mainly because of how unbothered she is always. Yeah. Like she really doesn't fucking care. Like you can go after whatever. She'll go back and forth.

When it's over, she's like, I'm good. I'm done with that. We're moving on. That's why she's so good. But moving on from Derek and Pinky and that synopsis of, Pinky potentially. We get to breakfast and we're going over the previous evening and the back and forth between Angel and Pinky.

And Drew points out, it's like, you know, last night was kind of a lot, right? And Pinky's response, again, it's defensive. And she's also saying, I'm getting to know you, getting to know you, Bigfoot, as she says. But the general consensus amongst the group is there's some concern here. We've got some concern about Pinky. Is she going to come into every conversation this way? is always going to be something that's going to be a knockdown dragout. So other people are starting to notice this trend.

Yes. And that's what I think that Angela has done a good job of kind of shining a light on whether she wanted to do that or not or knew that this was going to happen or not. The one thing that I always hate, and it always happens with Angela too. Like every time she was in beef with people last year, they always go straight for the physical attributes. They've got nothing. They really have nothing.

That goes to say with what you just talked about with her being unbothered. By the way, Angela's objectively beautiful. So that's always funny to me. But like I remember all last season, anytime that she had something like a spat with anybody, it would just go right to the physical. And it doesn't make any sense. And honestly,

it's just because you've got nothing. I mean, they tried to drag Charles last year and she defended her man, then moved on and she was unbothered. They tried to go after her money and her foreclosures. Not a problem for her because she's very open and honest about it. And she learns from her lessons and moves on. So I think she does a really good job of getting ahead of things.

I think she does a good job of showing the majority of her life. and there's not much more there. So then you see, and that's the losing side of any argument, once they start attacking the physical attributes, then it's like, okay, you lost,

you're done. You're not going to land on this one. No, it's game over, especially Angela. Like she really doesn't care. And she also is smart enough that once you take that road and you go physical,

she's like, oh, I won. You lost. I won and I'm done. So I completely agree with you. But Drew and Shimea have this continuing thing going on. on. And from Drew's standpoint, she's over. She's like, I have no issues with Shemia. It's all good.

Which I don't think is true because she also brings up the fact that Shemia said, I'm sorry, but so they're not totally cool. Sort of like, it wasn't like a, the air is completely clear. It wasn't like, oh, we're good and we're friends again. It was just, I don't know what you want me to do. Like there's nothing more that can be said about this. So it wasn't like, oh, we're going to be great. Everything's fine.

It's just like, it's not going to be a problem. I don't really have heat for it. I don't have any smoke to like throw her away. I don't really want to get into her with anything. Like there's no reason to it's just kind of dead and done. But they're not friends. Like the vibe that I was getting from both of them. Now, Shamiya, I think is probably used to resolution, if you want to say it that way.

So I think that she's probably going to be one of the first people that'll come over and be like, all right, like, let's talk through this. But then Drew will probably take another shot as we see a little bit later. It doesn't really matter on Drew's end. Like I think that Drew's like, I don't really care to be friends with Shamiya. I see how she's moving. Like, I can only imagine the rest of those women watching Shimea and Kelly together.

Like, I think that they're embarrassing. I think that they are absolute losers. And when they're there together and they just feed off of each other, I'm like, shut up. Like nothing you're saying is landing. So I can't imagine being on the trip,

let alone filming a show with them for months and just watching the two of them. Like, okay. Like, we were right. It's almost like because Shamiya was center peach last year and because she was trying to be the center of the show. It's like Kelly latched onto that. And she's like, well, I'm hanging out with the HBIC.

So when you get those scenes with the two of them and Kelly's got this like this strange, I don't know. Her overall demeanor this season is wild. I'll talk more about that later. But it seems like they think they're the top dogs. Like the way that they talk to each other, the way that they go, the way that they're talking about the stupid pool house that I'm so over. over. There's just this like false confidence there where I'm like, who do you think you are,

ladies? Like what the fuck's going on with these two? I have no idea. I think you're totally right. I think that Kelly hitched her wagon to Shemia because they tried to set her up as center peach last year. And it's falling apart, but neither of them realize it yet. I think Shemia might a little bit because she is getting left out cold for a lot of things. I mean, the pool house is one thing. But everything else, it just seems like everyone's like, all right, Chimea is here, okay, we're going to do this, whatever. It doesn't really matter, but Kelly is just, she's, I don't know what she, she's a mess, man. Like, she's not entertaining.

Everything she says is a flop. She thinks she's eating, dude. She thinks she's fucking cooking. And there's, there's such a small window at the bottom of that spectrum where it is enjoyable. Like, I like delusional housewives. I like delusional housewives that make jokes and start going after other people and they don't realize that they're just like describing themselves. Kelly does it and I'm like,

I don't, this isn't working for me. It's not funny. I don't like that. Here's why. Other delusional housewives, I believe that they believe what they're saying. Like,

no matter how delusional it is, I believe that in their reality, they think that's their truth. I don't believe Kelly. Maybe that's what, like when she goes off, I'm like, I don't think that you believe

what you're saying right now. I think we're just saying things. So maybe that's a really good point. But we're having a, group activity split group we got one crew going cattle roping or cattle herding allegedly and we got the other group is going to a Dersage lesson which weirdly enough Dresage in Dresage in college did you know what it was before we got there uh did I know what they were doing before we got there yeah yeah a lot of the question at activities are similar

unless they say like racing I'm like yeah whatever a lot Also, it was in the Olympics. Wasn't it in the Olympics? I remember it being a big thing because there were certain things. Was it baseball that got left? Baseball and golf, I think, got left out one year. Baseball didn't get left out. They decided to do the world baseball classic, so it didn't coincide.

Because the Olympics, summer Olympics, like smack in the middle of the season. Right. So they did the WBC, which is during spring training. But I know dressage. I knew it before, but I really know it. And you probably know it from Snoop Dog. Because he was commentating the Olympics. Oh, yeah.

And he said the horse is cripp walking. Yes. Yeah, that's totally true. Yeah. I always love those quirky little Olympic sports. Yep, me too. But anyway, Kay Michelle, full glam, full photo shoot and celebration. Love that for her.

And then you get everyone going to their activities. You get one crew staying home for a little bit. It's Kay Michelle Portia and Fadra, and they're still at the house talking. And Pinky comes up again. and their read on the situation is I've been around women like Pinky before she's bringing a lot of beef to the group. And we get a montage of her being combative is probably the best way that you can put it. I agree with Kay Michelle to a certain extent. I think that her passion comes off as aggression sometimes.

I believe you. Actually, I buy into that. I also like that Kay is giving the perspective of, look, when you're her friend, she's going to ride or die for you. And that's what you saw last night. All of those things I'm okay with. I just, I'm very curious if there's a reprieve in there. If when she gets comfortable with this group, or we're going to see that kind of subside a little bit or because of what she's going, there's a lot of factors with Pinky because of everything she's going through as well, is she just this person right now because her shit is so stressful. Right. Right. And that's what I'm willing to

give her a pass on. And I really want to like Pinky because I do think that she can bring such a very interesting development to this show where we don't get from a lot of people. And weirdly enough, the conversation between her and Kelly kind of highlights that, but not for Kelly, more for Pinky. There's also a very, very ironic feeling about that whole scene, but we'll get there. But for Pinky, like, I do think that like, if she wants to be combative in different arguments, like, absolutely, go for it. If you're going to stand up for certain people, absolutely go for it. I think that's a characteristic that'll really play well. if she's three, four seasons down the line and we know what she's, what to expect.

And we have that sort of confrontation between different people. Like that's going to be interesting. But right now, coming out hot, I think that it probably does get chalked up to what she's going through. And also, like you said, and we've all said like a million times now, she hasn't been on a girl's trip before. So this might be a lot of a lot of female activities for her that she's not really used to. Like, all right. Can I like get out of here and just go live in my little house for a little bit and then come back over? we might have to see some of that.

So I'm not going to hold it against her because I really do want to like her. I just see some things that are a pause for concern, but I also see things that are good. Yeah, I see what you're saying. I agree. Angela joins the crew, and they ask about Pinky, obviously, and this is exactly, this is Angela in a nutshell. Oh, we're good. Like, we're totally fine. Then she goes to her confessional.

Yeah, she talks too fucking much. She doesn't know what she's talking about. She's got a whole wife, live in wife in the basement, but I'm good. So it's in the pocket. in case she needs to use it later. We'll see if she brings it back up. But let's get to the Sprinter van. We're on the way to the cattle herding event in the stockyards.

And once again, we're recapping the night before. At least I thought we were going to recap the night before. But we can't talk about that because Shamiabuts in. He goes, whoa, whoa, whoa, everybody. No one's over there with us. And you don't know what we've dealt with. And then Kelly doubles down and brings it the fucking room again. I was like, no, guys, what do you, what?

Absolutely. And the other weird thing, the whole time that you're complaining about the room, you're saying, Cynthia, we know it's not your fault. Then shut up. Why do you keep bringing it up? What do you want out of this? It's honestly, it's just because they were left out. Like, that's what it is.

Like, we're going through this hardship and you guys are just living your lives and having a great time over there at the big house. We didn't get invited. So we're going to complain about it the whole time and make this your problem. So while they're actively saying this isn't your fault, Cynthia, we're going to make it your problem because you chose to put us over here. Put anybody over there. Like if this really is bad and this is the other part of it, them complaining about it so much.

When we get to the explanation a little bit later, like, yeah, it's dirty, but also the people that are cooking us dinner and lunch are in there constantly doing that. So we don't really get our own space. It smells like food in there. All of my luggage smells like food. I would probably feel bad if you guys were just troopers. If you were troopers and you're like, ah, yeah, you know what? The beds are a little messy. Can we just have somebody like, just give me a clean pair of sheets to just put on here.

Like I'll do it myself at this point. It's an Airbnb. It's not a hotel like Cynthia points out. If they were cool about it and they're like, well, whatever, you know, we'll just go down here into our little house. And then we woke up the next morning and all of a sudden these guys are running through and they're cooking eggs and stuff and bringing it up to the big house. You'd look down and be like, all right, that's a little fucked up. That kind of does suck because you want to get your sleep. You want to have a nice relaxing morning.

And you can't because there's people in and out of your little full house. I'd feel bad at that point. But I don't because you're complaining about it so much that Cynthia points out. It's taking away from the rest of the trip. We're all trying to have a good time and you guys won't shut up. Well, not for nothing. Because of all the complaining, that led to the blow up at dinner last night. The Angela and Pinky thing is a result of Shemia and Kelly complaining.

And they have the nerve to say to Cynthia, I don't know why you think we don't appreciate you. Me either. I'm fucking clueless on that one. Why would she think that? You guys can't let go of this stupid thing. And when Kelly starts talking, I'm like, do you just think of things to say, regardless of the context of the situation? It was dirty, right?

That was our issue with the poolhouse. It was dirty. Now, when you're in a space and traveling, you want something compared to what you're used to. Well, that's a whole different thing entirely. That's not what you guys were talking about in the slightest. So that, to me, feels like you're just trying. trying to find problems because you got left out.

It has nothing to do with the place being dirty, which by the way, they did the run through with the camera. It wasn't really that dirty. It was like a couple of marks on the sheets and like something in the sink. Yeah. And we're used to that too. I mean, a lot of people want to compare it to Angels trip to Colorado and Potomac that we just saw last season.

And I did have the thought like, okay, if Angel was doing this trip and they were all at the same house and Angel stuck Ashley and. Giselle over there. We would be complaining about that poolhouse the whole time. I think Ashley would probably stop at some point, but Giselle wouldn't. Giselle would make it her whole personality for the rest of the season. And it would be awful. So it's not quite at that level.

So I'll give them that. But we have been used to any sort of bugs or whatever might be going through a hotel room or an Airbnb in these housewife trips. And they highlight it all. So if there's a housewife complaining about something, they make sure to show us like, oh, no, they are actually complaining about the right thing. We saw two things. Like, whatever.

Get over. Grow up. Yeah, it's annoying. And Drew speaks up and defends Cynthia, which I'm glad. And then we have a back and forth between Kelly and Drew with some funny one-liners because Kelly takes a dig at Drew calling her the alien from the movie she's in. So remember that movie you did that she got paid for because you're an actress and you're doing well? You look like that alien from your movie. Not a great burn.

She replies with, okay, misproportionate. I was like, oh, fuck. Pretty good. That's pretty solid. That's pretty good. But anyway, we get some kind of resolve-ish. I'm glad it's like not a blow-up moment in the van. Cynthia's about this close to losing her shit, which I totally understand.

But we find out that Black is coming into Dallas potentially to hang out with Drew. This is where we get my favorite line. We're just friends. I don't care. But there is a development because she said, I really love him. Now, here's where I get irritated. She knows what the fuck she's doing with the friend and then the love thing. I know, Drew, she's very calculated on this show.

So now that she's doing that, I'm like, you fuck her. You are literally trying to drag this out. But, all right, confirm this at least for me. When she said that she's in love with him, did you let out a little giggle? Did you laugh a little bit? Yeah, because I've realized what I just said where it's like, you're doing this intentionally. It's kind of funny in an irritating way. And when I said,

fucker, I meant that as like a term of endearment. I didn't mean. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And that's, I think that's,

that's progress. That's the level that you need to get to. And you need to hold that level for a long time. And the other part of it, I hear Black's name. I know. And the other thing about this is, and I always forget about it because it is such a funny situation with Ralph.

She's going through with divorce. And I have not really once seen her really that upset. Like I think she was missing an action a few times last year, which is, you know, it's a couple moments last year. Fine. But,

But this year, I mean, she's been on it. She's been involved in a lot of things. She seems to be having a good time at all times. So I don't have a problem with her because of what she's going through. Like we've seen a lot of things that we would have usually excused. You're going through a divorce or separation and it's really ugly. And then you kind of take away from the show perfectly fine. We get annoyed in the moment, but we're going to pass it.

For her, like she's still showing up and doing all the Drew things that we're used to. So I have no problem with her. But yeah, Kelly again, it's just, I don't know what kind of like backing she thinks she has. like she just has Shimea. You're not friends with anybody else in the cast. And you're talking as if you've got the whole crew behind you, she doesn't. She has no one.

She's got Shemia who half the time looks over and is like, yeah, I'm not going to get involved in that one because I'm still unsure of my standing in this group. Yeah, but at least Shemia is self-aware. You can see in her demeanor with how she's moving this year. She's trying to figure out where she fits in the group now. Yeah.

She is not holding on to the I am the center peach. She is actually trying to go, where do I go? What am I supposed to do? do and she's hanging out with Kelly. Kelly thinks that they are top of the heap, which is, it's funny to watch because, as you pointed out, you're going after everybody. You're starting shit with every single person in the group and you've only got Shemia to fall back on. And Shemia is not starting shit. She's, she's doing some petty things here and there. She's got some beef with Drew that they're trying to figure out. But she's not going full throttle. She's trying to reel

it in at times. I've actually noticed Shemia somewhat start to settle in. I don't think she's like killing it this season by any means but I do see her kind of assuming a role now which I, that's fine. Like I don't have an issue with Shemia. I want her to find her place in this show.

Kelly, I don't get it. I don't know what she's trying to do or who she thinks she is or what she thinks she's doing. Like I, again, she thinks she's fucking cooking. Yeah, she absolutely does. She thinks that everything she says is I It's just not true.

Exactly. The same thing during our confessional. Yeah. And I always hate when housewives do that. There's a lot of housewives over the years that think that everything they say is completely iconic. It's like, oh, God,

that's embarrassing. Like, it's embarrassing for you. And the worst part is, and this is the branded delusion that we don't like, is when we get to a reunion, we get to a certain point where you have to talk about something that you said, you think you killed it still.

Like, there has been enough time to figure out that no, you did indeed not kill it. And she's like, Nah, I stand by that. That was great. That was a great one-liner. It wasn't.

It just simply wasn't. And she's building such a weird team. I don't get it. Like, she should have gone into this season. And we talked about it before. She was sort of a package deal a little bit with Brit Edy last year. They seemed to be getting along for a while until they didn't. She came in hot last year when she started going after Porsche, of course, which is still going on.

But we get back to Portia and her crew, and they are talking about. Drew. And obviously, Kay Michelle had black in the DMs, and that's what this conversation's about. Drew alluded to Kay the other day on the bus and was like, you know him. And here's what I think is happening. I think Drew is trying to set up something out of nothing. I don't think that this is a big deal. That being said, we saw the screenshots. Yeah. All I saw was I saw you in there, handsome, from K Michelle to him. But there was a lot more him than K.

Michelle. Obviously, she could have deleted it or not taking a screenshot of that. I don't know. But I do think that this is going to become a thing. And I don't think it needs to become a thing. I think I want to see where it goes for just like a half measure. I just want to see where it's going. And then I'm probably going to jump off ship because I think that little text message back,

when she's showing and she's willingly showing me, these screenshots to prove so the production can see it and put it in there, whatever. Yeah, she calls him handsome. She said she saw him. So she definitely knows him. She definitely knows him and has probably met him. Is there more there? Probably not.

Maybe a little flirtatious behavior. I don't really know. I think more from Drew's standpoint, it's that she brought up black and then immediately came to him. I don't know who that guy is. Like, don't talk to me like that. It's like, okay, you do know who he is because we've talked about this. And maybe Drew has seen other DMs.

Maybe they've talked a lot. more. We don't really know this. She's letting on. This is such a Drew move that you know him and brush it off and then bring it up in about three episodes. Yeah. Yeah. So I want to see to what extent the two of these people know each other, but I don't think there's anything here. I don't think this is going to be a smoking gun. She's not cheating on her husband with Black or she wasn't before Drew and Black met or anything like that. There's nothing along those lines that I think is going to come out. I will be very surprised if it does. But this is a very Drew move. You are correct. She's she's holding on to more

information. She just wants to see which way the tide's going to go with Kay Michelle. Because Kay Michelle could have just put it to bed right away. Like, oh, yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. Like we, we chatted a little bit. Boom, done. See you later. And if Drew brought it back up, we'd be annoyed. But because Kaye Michelle's so like, I don't know who that is, stop talking me about it. Now we have to see where it goes. She left the door open, essentially, because that's what Drew was doing. Testing the waters. The minute she says, I don't know that, man. She's like, I got something. I got something. I got something. I will use it what I need to.

But as of right now, don't have time for it. I don't know. I mean, if you're right, if black comes down to Dallas and they have a whole thing, I guarantee you it'll be talked about more like in the next episode probably. Amendment.

If black is there and this shit pops off, I'm cool with that. Yeah, fine. It's more so if we never get more info and we don't see them together at all. We're just talking about this third person. That's what I'm like, I don't really care.

If he's in the mix and this shit pops off in a weird way, like out at dinner or something, I'm cool with that. Like that I'm down for. Yeah, I'm definitely with you there. But we get to the stockyards and the cattle herding is over before it begins. It's literally just the cows walking down the street. Did you know that beforehand, by the way? No, I've never been to that, that I'm sure they do it daily.

It's probably just moving them from pen to pen. But I've never seen that. I've seen the cattle auction down there. That was fun. Cattle auction. I think that would be like, I feel like everybody was bragging on it. like that's pretty fucking cool. I mean,

those are big ass boys or girls. They're longhorns. Yeah, that are all walking down there. So, I mean, I think that's really cool. And you see it for two minutes

and then you can go grab lunch. Like, that sounds perfect. I mean, I don't know how far they drove. I know they were making a big thing about being late. But if they didn't drive that far,

that's a fun little activity to do. I think it's better than going and drinking wine in a stable. I mean, that was wild. I actually agreed with the ladies on that one. I don't want to eat when I'm surrounded by horse shit. No. But that's when we get.

to lunch in the stockyards in Fort Worth. And it's probably a steakhouse or something like, again, we're in Fort Worth, Texas, in the stockyards. It's probably going to be beef related in some way, shape, or form. This is where I question Pinky a little bit because I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. I know she's got a lot going on. We're getting to know her, first girl's trip, all of these things. But to go to a confessional after the fact and be like,

there's no way you're bringing me to a restaurant and the primary thing they serve is beef. It's like, time out. It shouldn't be this big of a deal. And again, you're the outlier. You're the vegan in the group, which is fine. Do you live your life? But you can't get mad because the entire group of five people go to a restaurant that has meat. It doesn't make sense.

And we don't know when cast trips go this way, like did production look at this and say, all right, we can film in this place, this place, where do you guys want to go? Or was it just one place? And they had to do that. And now somebody has to fall on the sword and act like they chose it. I don't know the stipulations there. We can just look at it how it is. It's insane to me.

It's absolutely insane. I mean, if you have these dietary restrictions, if you are vegan, you look and say, is that where we're going to go? Do you mind if we go to this place? I mean, you guys can still get the same food. I can get a little bit more. There's a better vegan menu. Nobody's going to say no.

It's not like everybody knew who this fucking. chef was or something like oh yeah we have to go to this place like i doubt that that's how it went you could have easily pulled up your phone and said yeah there's a couple of restaurants nearby uh if we could pick one of these that would be great for me so i can actually get some food i think that everybody would go along with that and it wouldn't be a problem but instead it's almost i don't know if i feel bad saying this because of what i said in the beginning but it's almost like pinky wanted a problem it's almost like she's that type of vegan which and this is like no shade to vegans out there as a whole but i know a lot of people like vegans

vegetarians, pescatarians, whatever it is, they like to create a scene when they go somewhere and there's not an option for them. And they want to be the one that stand up and be like, well, what am I going to eat? I guess I'll have the French fries pity party for me because I can't eat these things that I imposed on myself. Whatever. I don't care about your diet. I just care about how you're going to react around other people with it. And I got the vibe from her that's like, ooh, cool. All right, I can make a big stink about this and then people are going to come over to me and talk to me. I don't like that. No. And like, you're telling me on that entire menu, there's nothing there like a salad or some kind of vegetarian option.

I get that vegan means that there's more stipulations. And like you said, I don't care if you're vegan, like live your life. But this, you said earlier, there's a couple of things that are a moment of pause or a cause for concern. This to me was one of those, not because of the vegan thing particularly, but because she goes to a confessional. And it's like, okay, you seem to be. finding a problem with everything.

And that's going to make it tough to ingratiate yourself into this group if you're always on ready. Like I said in the beginning, like everything can't be a problem. You're not going to make a lot of friends here. And we need you to. Again, I want to like Pinky. There's a lot of things I think she brings to this show. I think she's a very interesting person.

So I want her to work well with the group. These are the moments where I'm like, are you just going to have shit with everybody all the time? Yeah, before we get into all of the mess there, can we just talk about Bravo shoe hoarding in that DJ song? What the fuck was that? Oh, I don't know. What was that? I have no idea.

I thought that I was having an adeurism. I'm like, wait, what is going on? I have no idea. I think that might mark the end of Bravo DJs. That's it. Now Bravo's getting involved. Bravo's getting involved in this and they're editing things that, nope, we're done. We're out on this one.

That wasn't even funny. We can only hope, right? Yeah, I don't know. That was bizarre. But leave it to Bravo to try to shoe a horn and stuff. Actually, you know what? That actually brings me to a good point of what I just said about how Pinky probably does this a little performatively.

She looked at the bull, which was a little funny at first, and said, are you in trouble? Are you safe? Blink twice if you need help. That's okay. I'm full fine with that. But then when someone's like, hey, do you want to get on the bull and ride it or something? No, I wouldn't want to do anything like that. I'm vegan.

I want to protect these. It's like, okay. All right. That wasn't fun. That's exactly we were talking about earlier. Yep. Like those things. You don't have to say that part.

No. Nobody cares. You can just say no. Like, no, I'm not doing that. It's like CrossFit people. I don't care that you do CrossFit,

but also I don't care that you do CrossFit. Like, don't tell me about it. You feel me? Yeah. I can feel the stank in that second one, yeah. Yeah. There's a different,

different tone. But at the dressage lunch, we're doing some Italian wine tasting. We get a little update from Facebook. about Chi-Chi. She's not exclusive. She's like, I'm dating around. She might date this nice Italian man who's giving them wine.

I don't know. But the big thing is, Kay Michelle is starting to find friends. She's starting to realize, like, actually, a lot of these women are kind of nice. I'm actually enjoying myself. Fadra, I thought that you were super mean. Maybe you're not.

Portia, we're starting to vibe a little bit too. So when you have newbies like Kay Michelle and Pinky, it's very interesting to watch as they move through the group. On one side, you're seeing Kay Michelle start to settle in. On the other side, you're seeing the exact opposite. It seems to be more problems than solutions.

Yeah, yeah. I do like how she's going. She seems a little timid, and I don't really think that I was expecting that, to be honest. I agree. I thought that Kay Michelle, when she came into the group, she was just this big personality. And I'm okay with it.

I think I just have to get used to it. But I was really excited. when she first came in the first couple episodes because it seemed like she wasn't going to take no shit. She was her own person. She's blasting people on Twitter and then obviously copying to it and saying exactly who she's talking about.

But I do think maybe if we had to read into it, she probably was taken aback a little bit by Portia's comment a couple episodes ago, and that kind of pushed her away a tiny bit. And again, another one who has never been on a girl's trip. So she does need to try to figure these things out. And I think this is part for the course, at least. And like you said, it's a positive light

versus what we're seeing on the other side. But I don't really know because Kaye Michelle is not at all who I thought she was a couple episodes ago. So I'm a little not apprehensive even. I'm just probably confused. I'm mislabeling my confusion. Confused and curious. Just try to figure out who she is kind of deal. I agree with you, actually.

I was surprised that I expected the same thing. Like big personality thought she was going to bring a lot of energy. She's not. And I think another part of that, again, with the two newbies, the one simulet, not a lot of girls trips, not a lot of girl friends. Kay Michelle's memory of girl groups is living in Atlanta and them trying to tear her to pieces.

So that's what she's coming in with. So watching them navigate it, it is interesting to have that juxtaposition there. But back at Cynthia's lunch, we get into the Pinky and Angela thing. You seemed bothered. Well, you were bothered, actually. And Pinky's defensiveness, again,

it's like, okay, is this you or is this new like because of the group that we're getting right now but when she starts going in I'm like all right she's like you know she's not even in my tax bracket I'm like yeah I know that you you have a hundred million dollar company and all these that you're going bankrupt right now at least one of your companies are like maybe not use that as as a defense yeah I didn't care for that comment and I I never care for those comments actually I mean you can go back and the the obvious choice is Sutton saying somebody whose wallet fits like someone has well fits with three it's it's sort of like in the same family as going after somebody's physical

attributes it's the same type of thing it's like okay like you've got nothing you have absolutely nothing on this person and i guarantee you when she was clapping back at angel the night before she was hoping that something was going to land and angel is like no i already talked about this everybody already knows about this i have no nothing to be embarrassed about i've got my own shame and I'm working on it and I'm going to move forward. You can't hurt me. She did what you're currently doing. Correct.

Yeah. It's always a tough look when somebody goes that route. Yeah. And we dig into it more. And the reason she's trying to defend for being bothered the night before, she's like, well, Angela said that Kelly said that frickin frack or whack. Kelly did say that. Kelly confirmed that she said that.

So what's your point there? And then the slept of the married man comment comes. up and that's more Kelly and Porsche and their beef going on. But Cynthia, look, I look to Cynthia for most guidance, right? She is our OG. She is the wise one. She's usually in the right. So when Cynthia breaks down the situation and says, like, look, one, you made ladies

uncomfortable last night. Your tone was very curt. And I received what you're saying, but it's how you're saying it. I think he's defense. It's the first time I had a convo with you guys after I had a conversation with them. Okay, fair. And you are coming in trying to defend your friends. But again, you're coming into that convoy on ready.

And you go in immediately and your tone was Kurt. To say it like this, Cynthia said, you start a convo, then you run that conversation. Yeah. That is what it seems to be, at least in our experience so far. far. Pinky's defense again, if you feel my aggressiveness, I'm powerful and strong and stand in my truth. Fuck yeah. I know you are and I believe you when you say that. My only question is like you are strong, you are powerful, you're an impressive woman. Do you have to be ready 24-7, 365? Can't you just like have a chill day? Yeah, honestly, that's what we would like to see. I think

she just has to get better at handling those arguments or handling those conversations. I think the way that she does it, like I'm okay with her being on go 24-7. I mean, that's going to make her a very imposing force if she's able to navigate that the right way. Well, it needs to land a huge if. Yeah, it's just a big if. Like, even the heaviest hitters of housewives aren't on all the time. Like their stuff is just not there all the time, but they're still on go. I mean, you look at Lisa Barlow over in Salt Lake.

Like, she's always on go. half the time the shit that she says doesn't make any sense. And that's okay. But she's able to kind of compensate with that with bigger moments. I think piggy can try to find herself in that situation, but she just has to be able to figure out and pick and choose her battles and figure out what information is going to play best in that certain situation. I think she'll get a handle of it.

I just think this is a rough first showing it, at least for now. I don't really think I'm going to put too much thought into it because I want to see how she handles it now because I think this is also a good group. too where they're able to discuss everything like this isn't a confrontation this is hey the way that that went last night wasn't great like we don't really want to see if you're always on go nobody's going to talk to you essentially like we're not going to get involved with you because we don't really feel like getting into it especially on a curl strip but i think the pinky can handle herself

well and i think she can kind of take that information be like all right this maybe this is a safe space and i thought this was just going to be an absolute blood sport the whole time i think that's the biggest part of it. Like I do think that we're on to something. I mean, Cynthia mentions it back at the house with Drew because she's like, what's the real issue with Pinky? Like, what's actually going on there? And that goes what we were saying earlier. A lot of this could potentially be chalked up to. She's dealing with a lot of shit and it's just coming out this way with the group. I don't, I don't know. Like, that makes a lot of sense to me. And I know we've said it a million times. Like, we really want to like Pinky. There's a lot to like there. So I do.

I believe that she'll have her bumps and bruises early this season. I would imagine she'll start to settle in about halfway through. And then we'll see more sides to Pinky than we're getting right now. Like that's what I would love personally. Because we got the moments with Derek, right? Like we had some, the really sweet moment where she let the walls down on camera. I was talking about the bankruptcy with him and he was going to take care of whatever she needed. You saw her being vulnerable.

And that was a really nice scene. So there are more layers to Pinky. And I do think we'll get there eventually. It's just watching her navigate the early days has been fascinating. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Now speaking of, we get Pinky and Kelly. And they're talking about everything going on. And, you know, admittedly, she's like, I have a short fuse.

And emotionally, I don't have the patience. And I do believe that she means emotionally right now with everything going on. I do not have time for stupid shit. So if stupid shit pops off, I'm going to say something. That I understand. You know, I have a short view sometimes. But Kelly, her response was one so disrespectful and patronizing to the entire group of many women that have done many things, by the way. When you're in a group of women that don't have a lot of things going on, this is what they focus on.

I've got a business. I've got kids. I'm self-made. That resilience hits different. Angela had to lay on her back. to get her. Okay, let's slow down.

Let's slow the role, everybody. Doesn't everybody have kids? First off, I believe so. And I think they all have businesses. Now, I will give you credit,

yourself made. That's awesome. Good for you. I think it's a tough stance once again that the two ladies currently declaring bankruptcy are doing this in a room by themselves. That doesn't look great,

in my opinion. But I hear what you're saying. I don't understand why this is a team of two going against the entire group. Like, what is to gain from this? See, I don't know because I think this is going to be detrimental to the pinky to begin with because Kelly's trying to get her to turn on everybody else. Like, hey, you can join me and Shemia's side and we can go after everybody else who doesn't

know what they're talking about because me and Shemia can. Shemia married her husband who has millions and millions of dollars. Like she probably did something before that I'm not familiar with. But either way, she married rich as shit. So she shouldn't be part of this. Kelly and Pinky, fine. Maybe bond over your similarities. That's completely fine by me.

But bringing the rest of the group into it is stupid. And it's just Kelly's agenda. She just wants to turn Pinky and use her. And I actually don't think that she expected Pinky to go to bat for her the night before. And when she did, she's like, oh, cool. I don't have to do a whole lot. Now I've got another team member that I can get to look at the rest of the women like, oh, you guys don't understand what's going on.

You guys just don't get it. Let's talk about Angela. since when do you really have a problem with Angela Kelly like that's the problem here it's like you're trying to create more and more problems with other people on the cast it's not going to end well for you and also you're going to ruin a newbie's look at a possible career doing this on Bravo just because you want somebody on your team that's going to do the same shit like I hope pinky doesn't fall for it I really do but there is a chance that she she buys into everything that Kelly's saying she's like oh yeah you know what I'm going to align myself with you you know what's going on I don't I just don't want it to go that way I just don't want it to go that way. So my hope is I think Kelly's going to overplay her hand at some point. Definitely. She's talking too much shit and I think it might end up being with that alleged married dude that she slept with allegedly. I think she's going to overextend and I think that she's going to get clapped back really hard. And I think that in that moment, Pinky's going to see that and go, ooh, time out and just kind of re-evaluate the situation.

Because the more we talk about it, the more I'm recognizing. recognizing like in this group you know you've got some some very heavy hitters you've got Porsche who is you know in a league of her own when it comes to to starting shit and and sidestepping shit and just doing what Porsche has done for her entire career as a housewife you've got drew who is sneaky and she's good at setting things up she's calculated you've got a lot of people in this group that are really good at this so you need somebody actually to come in that can stand their ground against somebody like Porsche and not buckle. That's good that we potentially have that.

But we might lose that before we get to those moments because they're not going to hit the same when there's problems every episode. And when you have Kelly in her ear trying to get her riled up because of the pool house or something else that's like that minimal, looking back at it and seeing like, oh, shit, she goes to bat for her friends immediately. And she just met these women. That's good, actually, because she's going to get. into some cool shit.

Happy for that. But it cannot be about the poolhouse or that level of mediocrity every time. Yes, we need it to be about the right shit. And Kelly's not going to set you up for the right shit as we're seeing. Okay. I think we're figuring it out. I think we're talking it out. I like this.

But we're on the Sprinter van headed to dinner. Was this annoying to bring it up one more time? Yes. Am I glad it was brought up this way? Absolutely. Public service announcement. Our shit is bombed. The rooms are clean.

Clip of them twerking on a bed. Everything's fine. Thank you, Cynthia. Hopefully that thing is done. We don't have to talk about it anymore. I don't think we needed to mention it here. I think just a one off. Hey, Cynthia, rooms are clean.

Thank you so much. Would have been fine. But hey, we're moving forward. It's almost like that's my big problem is that they know it's a dark cloud. They wanted it to be a dark cloud that hung over everybody's head, not just theirs and Cynthia's. They knew that it was going to just somehow manipulate everybody into being a little turned off by everything going on to the poolhouse.

Like, oh, yeah, don't worry, guys. Everything's fine. We're good. Everybody's having a great time now, right? Yeah, I guess so. You kind of already ruined the mood, but fine. Yeah, you had to call attention to it again. But whatever.

Again, we can move on from it. It's funny, though, because you have two very different experiences on the day trip. On one hand, the Dressage crew, they're viving. They had a blast. They are all friends. Everyone's smiling, laughing on the other side. You still have a lot of tension with that group. but we play a game.

They always go well, so why shouldn't we play a game? Something you've learned about someone on this trip. Kay Michelle, I didn't know Fager was actually nice. Love that. Well done. Her breakdown of Fager being a household white lady name is gold. Fantastic. Phenomenal.

We get Shumia, who's like, didn't know Kay Michelle had been through so much, and why you had such a hesitation to hang out the girls group, saying surplaces, says, you know, know, that was really nice. I thank you for sharing. Thank you for opening up. So we have, we have a bridge there that's potentially getting crossed, right?

Which would be great. If Shia can start being friends with Kaye, Michelle's friends with everybody else. You get Shemia back with the main crew, not leaning on Kelly, positive. Then you get to Kelly. This has nothing to do with what we've been talking about.

I really appreciate you, ladies, coming to support the grand opening. What are you doing? What are we setting up right on? Why do we have to do this? But Angela is playing the game. I don't fault Angela here. Who all was there?

I was like, who? Ooh. High five. It's so. It's like not even. It's like it. Again, Kelly coming in this way, it's the low hanging fruit. Like you've got nothing to say.

Let me go back five episodes. Let me go back. We find out by the way. We find out by the way because when Drew and, and Shemia are talking and almost apologizing earlier in the episode, we find out it's a month ago. This is a month ago. and you're bringing it back up because you still have unresolved issues with

Porsche. We'll get to it eventually. You don't need to force the issue, especially on a Sprinter van. I mean, that's not the time or place. It's never the time or place to discuss these things. But using that is very funny. And it's just such an easy out. Angela, who all was there?

You know who was there. I guess you're just putting more focus on the fact that Kelly brought it up for a reason, but it's still very funny that eventually Angela gets the smoke where it's like, Angela, what are we doing? You know who was there. All right. into it. Let's just do it. No, Kelly, you brought it up. This is your fault. Well, when we dive into it, the back and forth between Kelly and Portia, the Kelly and Portia one, that's a valid one.

Like, that's a good back and forth. That's fine because you guys both have some skeletons in the closet according to each other. It's pertinent to the issues you're having with each other because you both are claiming the same exact thing. This is a beef I can get behind. Like, stick to this one. Don't start shit with everyone else in the group as well. Yeah. But Jesus Christ does it get convoluted? This gets wacky because we start getting into it. Portia brought all that shit up because at some point last year, I believe in the after show,

Kelly had alluded to Portia sleeping with a married man. This was her get back on camera to bring up the fact that she had done the same. Portia denies it. That never happened. No. fuck no you didn't sleep with R. Kelly which I guess is in her book and Pinky is like you slept with bump and grind R Kelly

remix R. You mean the rapist R Kelly? What are we talking about? Yeah, I know. The way that he gets described. I'm like, wait, I feel like we're missing a lot here. The guy that peed on somebody, that guy. It's funny too because like, bye, by, immediately goes to the like the Michael Jackson movie that just came out. Oh, my ghost show where it's it's like movies over at 1988.

We're not talking about anything past that. What do you mean? I feel like there's a lot that we could talk about. No, we can't do this. All right. Fine. R. Kelly comes up.

Let's talk about ignition remix. What about all the other shit? No. Okay. Yeah. It's almost like you're painting him in a very good light and then painting Porsche in a very good light. Like you had sex with R.

That's really cool. Oh, it sucks. 20 years ago, it was probably cool. I don't, anymore. you just try to hide it. So it's very funny the way that gets brought up, but the back and forth was incredible. Once again,

I mean, when they get heated and people kind of stay out of it, the back and forth between two individuals and the whole group is incredible. It's so much fun. Like, I don't know what the fuck's going on. We're Kelly's yelling at Porsche and saying that she's scissoring,

whoever, Porsche is yelling back at Kelly saying, you wanted to scissor me too. I don't know when the hell that happened, but I guess it happens at some point. We'll just take her word for it. And we don't know what the hell's going on. Like,

I do think I agree. with you. The Kelly sleepy with a married man because we get over to Fajer who knows the guy and the wife and the family and everything. Ferdra all but confirms it, by the way. Yeah. Yeah. So that's going to get incredibly messy.

And we wouldn't have that clip. We wouldn't have that confessional if we don't get some more allusion to it. Like, all right, we're going to talk about who it is specifically without naming names. I fully anticipate that in the next couple episodes. But that's going to be the big thing that's going to be hanging over Kelly's head is can

she get away from it? Because I think Portian knows what's going on and she's hoping that Kelly feeds into something so she can just, boom, here you go. This is what we're going to talk about now. I don't really care anymore. Well, the evidence that we do have, it's the second time we heard how the information came to light. Because Portia's like, I was with this dude. He got a text and I saw his phone and the guy texted him or this other guy that I just

boinked Kelly, more or less is what the text said. And then people like, who would text that? A lot of dudes would text that. That is the least surprising thing ever that this guy texted that. So plausible, 100% absolutely. Again, I don't have a lot to think about this because we don't have enough info. But when Fager reels it in and goes, whoa, whoa, whoa, nope. It goes to a confessional saying, you know, fuck the guy.

I don't care about him. But I don't want his wife to catch a stray. This doesn't need to come out on TV. That would be brutal for her, which I totally agree with and understand. But that means that Fadra not only knows the person, as she confirms, this points to Fadra knows what happened. Now, Fadra has a past. Could this be her just scheming and starting some shit? Yes, it could be.

We don't really know. Are we going to definitely dive into this more? Yeah, this might end up being the main chunk of the season, honestly. Yeah, yeah, it absolutely could be. And I'm okay with that, honestly. Yeah, I mean, it does beg the question, like, do I really want Kelly to be forefront in this season? Absolutely not.

But I do think her energy kind of warrants her getting in the mix and just getting absolutely destroyed at some point, the way that she's going after everybody else. Like, you want that smoke. You try to go after everybody. Have fun. Like, I don't see Shamea sticking around with you after this one. I don't see Pinky sticking by you for this one.

Like, you might be out on an island after all of this. and you did nothing to try to fortify yourself. Like you're not even really denying it. You're just questioning Porsche's authenticity. Like that's not the good way to go. She's kind of denying it. But like it's not very cool. Like I didn't take my panties off after the flight.

It's like, okay. Because she went to dinner with Shamiya, she says. Yeah. Shemia is also part of this now. And you better hope that she doesn't let something slip to try to get back in the good graces with some of these other ladies because she probably needs. knows more and I'm not buying the defense. Fadre, look, again, she is not always honest.

Fadra is very believable. Yeah. One of her best attributes is like, I know she starts shit. I know she embellishes, but when she talks, I'm like, I think she's right. Yeah, no, every single time. Like, we know what to expect. We know the full playbook of Fadra. But when she starts talking about something, it's like, ah, you're right.

And you know everything. Exactly. You're going to use it at the right time and it's going to work out perfectly. Oh, man. So I don't know. But again, like just a great episode, great season so far. And I'm curious where we go from here. It's going to be very interesting.

We got a lot on the horizon potentially. Yeah, for sure. Let's get some questions. From Meganyah, Hala, 18, is the way they're treating Cynthia giving you Potomac and Angel vibes, which is crazy. I've seen so many comparisons. Not really. I think because it doesn't hit as hard, like Shimea and Kelly can say whatever the hell they want,

we're still going to be on Cynthia's side. I think the angel side of things, that was just a cluster fuck, and that was Angel's fault most of it. I agree. Oh, Joe, no, no. Oh, Joe, no Joe. There we go.

Oh, Joe, no Joe. We're all sick of Kelly trying to make these one-liners happen in her confessionals, right? Absolutely fucking loot. Yes. Yeah, we sure are. Absolutely are. From H.M. Faulkner, how annoyed was the gyrsage lady when none of them would ride?

That was funny. That was incredible. I mean, especially after the horse just bucked a little bit. Like, that wasn't that crazy. I mean, obviously, if you're that close to a horse and he does anything, you're like, oh, shit. But no one wanted to ride. I mean, obviously, Angela wasn't going to ride. She had a short skirt on, but everybody else seems like kind of ready.

And Fager, she said she wasn't glued. She wasn't glued in. There's nothing she could do. I mean, it was just incredibly funny to watch her, the Jazz lady's reaction to all of it. Like, come on. Really? We thought we were going to get something. No one.

All right. Go have your wine. See you later. Blacksmith, Treb. I forgot Drew and Shemia had beef. That's how disinterested I am in their storyline. Yeah. I mean, I completely forgot that they had beef too.

I'm very disinterested in that connection storyline. I'm okay with like the Shemia other storylines. Like I want to see where it goes. I think it's incredibly produced and stupid, but I want to see what she does. And Drew is always fascinating to me. Yeah, yeah, she's an enigma for sure. Rachel Mickelis is eight women too many.

Just feels like a lot compared to other Housewives series. Normally we, we don't love a giant cast. This one's working just fine. Obviously, Kelly is the outlier currently. But I don't have any issues with, numbers currently. Could it be an issue? Yeah. But as of right now, the storylines and everything going on are concise enough that we're not deviating like every other scene. So currently I'm cool with it. And 99% of these ladies are bringing it. There's there's really only even

Shemia, I'm starting to be like, all right. Is she my favorite? No, but I'm fine with how she's been moving. Kelly's really the only one where I'm like, what's happening? What are we doing? Yeah, yeah, I agree with that. From saver. This, are Kelly and Shemia complaining for camera time? Not being in the main house means less. That's not a bad way to look at it. It's not.

And that would make sense and that should be why they're doing it. I don't think that's why they're doing it. They should be for that reason. That's a good reason to do that. That's a good point. Yeah. But no, I don't think that's their motive. Yeah, me neither.

from Valpo 37. We'll do this one for the end. Is it not weird that they went to the Dressage Barn in Texas? I figured they would go more Western. I never really think too much into their activities. They're literally just like, hey, get out of the house. We'll set this up for you. Have fun.

We need to fill these somewhere. Yeah, it's always that. It's always a weird, quirky activity that's usually not that interesting. And then they go sit down for lunch and they talk about whatever's going on on the trip. Yeah, I don't know what would be more Western. that you could think of that would be oh down there yeah plenty of stuff go goat roping go go rope and okay yeah dude go goat roping that's a lot of fun uh all right i used to get drunk in junior college and my buddy had a goat on his land and it was in a pen uh his name was billy jean billy g yes and i would

get drunk and jump the fence and I would try to wrestle Billy Jean because like how you're supposed to like if you ever seen a rodeo like you tie the calves you tie their feet together as they run away that's that's cattle roping you can do something similar with goats so if you get behind him and get the horns you can try to get he was you know I never got him to the ground and people probably like oh my God this is awful to hear but yeah I used to wrestle Billy Jean and Billy Jean wop my ass so if you guys it makes to feel any better I always lost But yeah, that was, that's what I used to do in Bumpfuck, Texas. Now, that's a new story.

That's why I let it go for so long. That's really good. Yeah, you're the king of repeating stories, but that was, that was a new one. And now I do it. Now I'd repeat them intentionally because it makes me laugh. But anyway, we will see where this goes. A lot of things, a lot of question marks, but good question marks. We just need to see what plays out this season.

But that's all I got. You got anything else? Nope, all good here. Well, that's our show. Rob Bros are out of here. Hi, I'm Brandi Passanti. For the last 15 years, I've starred in one of the most successful reality shows of all time. Story tours.
