Starting point is 00:00:30 Man. The Dark Knight's definitive DC comic stories adapted directly for audio for the very first time. Fear, I have to make them afraid. He's got a motorcycle.

As here's a drive in a deep left field by Castellani. Oh, man, it's 8 o'clock. And so that'll make it a... I don't need the spotlight. I shine just fine.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Hi, I'm Karma. And yes, I am a bitch. Brov Bros. Good evening, everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Bravo Bros. Your favorite podcast from the Bros. For everybody, for whoever wants to listen. I am your co-host, Steele Russell, joined as always by the one and only sputter mcputter i don't like that one i don't know you didn't like it as soon as it came out of your
Starting point is 00:01:33 mouth didn't feel good nope but hey it worked didn't sound good either it works everything works that's the beauty of just being able to say whatever the hell you want about my name that's the beauty of being a magoots that's the beauty of being a magooots that that's a we could do a whole movie about that i don't think you have earned a biopic yet no not yet although we are on our way i don't i don't that's yeah we're on our way we were on tv sunday night we were on TV Sunday night. For anyone that didn't get a chance to see Potomac, we were on TV, which is pretty fucking nuts, honestly. And so we signed, when did we sign that? It must have been like August, maybe. Sometime in the summer. Someone reached out to us from Bravo and was like,
Starting point is 00:02:15 hey, we would love to use this clip. You just got to sign here, whatever. So we signed. And then we didn't hear back. So I didn't know when we were going to be on. And then after like the season started, I honestly thought we got cut. Yeah, I figured we had gotten cut. or more likely they just decided not to go the route of talking about Giselle with Candace and Chris and everything, which is obviously where we were relevant. And then out of nowhere, we just popped up. It was so funny because I was in Texas, actually. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:41 Because I was going to pick up pop. And I was sitting watching the football game with our family friends in Texas. What football game? That was, oh, actually, a funny story. Oh, oh. So here you go. You're talking about a different one. This felt weirdly good.
Starting point is 00:02:56 And I feel bad because, like, these. These family friends in Texas are like my family. I grew up with their kids, and I've known them for my entire life. I love them to pieces. This is not a personal attack. But being in a house in Dallas watching the Cowboys lose with 15 Cowboys fans was so nice. Yeah, it's oddly satisfying. It was so satisfying until Monday night.
Starting point is 00:03:22 And all of my joy was stolen from me. Don't even know what you're talking about. We're not going to talk about it. Well, I will say one thing. about, not even about that Monday night game because fuck that. But we're in the playoffs and it's the funniest thing ever. I posted something today. It's just like, you can't take that away.
Starting point is 00:03:39 It's the funniest thing ever. This team sucks and they should not be in the playoffs. You can't take it back. You can't take it back. We're already there, baby. And guess what? We could sneak out another cheap win and move on in the playoffs. I don't want to go there.
Starting point is 00:03:53 I don't think that's going to happen. But for all of you that are not Eagles fans or, or just Philadelphia sports fans in general. Welcome. This is what it is. We're really confident, extremely cocky, borderline annoying, and then we get hit in the face with reality, and we come crashing back down to Earth,
Starting point is 00:04:10 then we're self-loathing, self-hating, miserable people for the remainder of the season. But... I don't know. I would rather take this than just an absolute collapse against a terrible team in the playoffs. Yeah, I think you're right. But hey.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Because this is kind of funny. Because nothing happens right now. Hey, but we were on TV. We were on TV. You're on TV. We got a shout out today on Watch What Crapins. Yeah, we did. That was cool.
Starting point is 00:04:31 A lot of things. Just everybody loves the pros, you know? You know what I didn't say? And we haven't said in forever. What? We had a really great week. Oh, yeah, dude. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:04:38 That was like every fucking week. Every week when we started to like take off early on. Hey. We had an extra 100 listeners. Yeah. I will never forget the early days when I would have my phone and a new episode would drop. And I would sit there and just refresh. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Refresh, refresh trying to see those numbies come in. And we hit the first time we had 100. I think I posted it on the page. I'm going to repost that as, like, a nostalgia kick. The first day we hit 100 listeners, you would have thought that we just won the fucking lottery. It felt like it. It did. It definitely felt like it.
Starting point is 00:05:07 I remember there was one time where you and I, we went over to George's house up in New York. Yep. And you and I sat there on Friday morning. The episode had just released. And you were sitting there and we were really excited that we had gotten to like 700 or something. I knew and were like, this is fucking incredible. Now we're on TV. Yeah, now we're on TV.
Starting point is 00:05:25 How about that? So how you like them, apples? Yeah, now you have to deal with us at home and on the go. You've got to see our faces on the worldwide television. That's what that's called. WWT. Yep. Anyway, let's get to some Bravo.
Starting point is 00:05:40 It's our midweek episodes. For those of you that have not listened to the earlier episodes this week, we have changed up the format a little bit to make it easier on both you and us as far as what episode we're dropping. So the way that we're going to do it is we're still going to watch all the same shows. The episodes are going to release the same day, but each show has its own individual episode. So you won't have to look for timestamps and fumble through the episode. If you don't like a show and don't watch it, you don't have to listen. We would like you to listen, but you don't have to listen.
Starting point is 00:06:10 You do whatever you want, but also listen. But just listen. And also leave five-star reviews. Yeah, you know what? Just do all that. But do you. But do all of that. Mostly do you.
Starting point is 00:06:20 And do that stuff too. But this actually reminds me, somebody said something this week. that was really funny because there was like maybe five, six weeks ago. Somebody commented that we were getting too serious and it was just like too annoying and we were going back and forth and we were highly emotional about things. It was because the TV sucked. It was during OC. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:38 It was a time. It was just a dismal, dismal time. But somebody left another comment. I guess it was the same person and said, hey, I gave you guys another chance. It seems like you guys cheered up a little bit. See, that's my thorn for this week. I don't get to that on Friday. And I'll just say what the, it really pissed me off because it was almost
Starting point is 00:06:56 pathing. Oh, I thought it was funny. No, because the title of it was so patronizing. Better. Better. Oh, oh, yeah. I thought it's a welcome back. No, it said better as that we were pandering to this one person. Look, we don't pull punches here. You have to ride with our emotions. Sometimes we're down. Sometimes we're up. But the podcast will reflect how we're feeling. Honestly, I think the biggest change is that we've been so sporadic with like, like, I got back from Dallas and I was super hung over on Tuesday. So I was very giddy and all over the place and then before that we had Thanksgiving and we were all over the place that week you had a rough couple of weeks here and there so yeah I think it's just has to do with
Starting point is 00:07:30 are we tired or are we full of energy we're a mess we are a mess yeah let's get to works bravo stuff oh this is still bravo bravo jason but yeah go ahead juxtapose are you going to give us all your rankings yep we're going to do some rankings this week and the way that mine fall potomac is dead last which is so sad for I'm going to go, or it might be five. You're going to have to start throwing in Ultimate Girls trip. You got to throw in some Soho. That's next week.
Starting point is 00:07:59 That's next week. So for those of you that are looking for some. You can still throw it in your rankings for now, I think. All right, I will. So last is Potomac. And then we've got Beverly Hills, maybe. Not by a long shot, though. Beverly Hills could be higher.
Starting point is 00:08:12 This is hard because after Potomac, everything's pretty good. And I know that you're iffy on Beverly Hills, but I'm going to go Potomac, Beverly Hills, Miami, Soho. What am I missing? Roney Legacy and... Roney Legacy, I'm not going to rank yet. Let's not rank that.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Yeah, I'm not ranking that yet. And then first is Southern Charm. Yeah. Without a doubt. Undisputed. Where's Salt Lake. Oh, Salt Lake's two. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Salt Lake's too. There you go. Salt Lake Southern Charm. Because here's the thing. Southern Charm, this may be the best season of Southern Charm ever. Yeah, this is unbelievable. And I've got Southern Charm at one as well. I'm going to do the reverse of what you just did.
Starting point is 00:08:47 I'm going to start at the top and work my way down. I've got Southern Charm at one. I am putting... I'm putting Soho at two. Nice. I just enjoy it. It's great. And it's funny because, like, I texted you while I was watching Southern Charm, just telling
Starting point is 00:09:01 you how much I enjoyed it. Yes, you did. Which is fine. You know what? We don't want to overlook the little things. We want to make sure that we're still enjoying this. This isn't a homework for us. We're enjoying this.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Southern Charm has been so enjoyable. Every episode has been funny. It's been ludicrous and it's been a great ride. And if you, for whatever reason, stop watching Southern Charm earlier, pick it back up. Yeah, definitely. You're missing out. Definitely. Definitely missing out.
Starting point is 00:09:21 But Soho is good. Soho, there's, you know me, I need those shows where I can relate a little bit more and watching younger people go out and party and be hung over on a Sunday morning that always speaks to me. That's me. And I still do that. It's not anymore. You can't hang.
Starting point is 00:09:37 You said this last week, I can hang. It's just the next day that I can't hang. You're right. Which is like what? I can't hang. Well, I guess I, you know, whatever. If it's a three-day bender with those guys, you might not make it to day three. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:09:48 They might not make it to day three. I don't make to day three. You won't. I don't know. But I will say, just to, and then you can continue your rankings, if you're not watching Southern Hospitality, it has the makings of early Vanderpump. Like, all these kids are still trying to, like, make their money,
Starting point is 00:10:03 make a name for themselves. The difference between that and Vanderpump now is Vanderpump is established. They have careers. They have different jobs. This is the roots of what Vanderpump started. And I think that if you give it a shot, if you're not watching it, you will love it. And you'll be on board, and you can say I watched this in the beginning.
Starting point is 00:10:21 There you go. Which people say that about Vanderpom now, and you know, you'll hold them in higher regard. Yeah, for you. It's understandable. Way to go.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Got all those people. Iowa's an OG watcher. Yeah. We're not going to talk down on you. No, we'll talk up on you. Oh. Hey, no. It's getting hot back here.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Continue the fireplace. Yeah, sorry. This is what happens when we record too late. No, and I know. And one more thing about Soho,
Starting point is 00:10:43 they don't try too hard. People on the show does not, like they don't, it's almost like they don't realize there's cameras around them. They just kind of act how they're going to act. that does, which is fine, because she's still good on the show.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Leva. Oh, yeah. You can tell that she is more cognizant of the cameras than the cast. She's also trying to run a business at the same time as running a show from her business and also being in a different show. So there's a lot going on. She gets it. It's not a knock.
Starting point is 00:11:07 It was more saying, like, it's interesting that the one person that has been on the camera, you can tell is much more, like, present that there's cameras around, whereas the rest of the crew is just like, ooh. And it won't last forever. But for now, it's nice. I've got, uh, I've got Salt Lake at 3, of course. Beverly Hills is at four and then, yeah, Potomac's at five.
Starting point is 00:11:26 And that's just the way the cookie crumbles, right? That's the way, that story, the cookie crumbles. By the way, speaking of movie quotes. I was talking about Bruce Almighty. I know you were. I was Walter Cronkine from Bruce Almighty. He's holding the comb over his mouth.
Starting point is 00:11:39 That's his Walter Cronkite mustache. I know where you're at. We're on the same page. And he's testing out his lines. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, we know. Yeah. And then they made Evan Almighty and that was horrible.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Horrible. He built an arc. Yeah. He doesn't work in, like, suburban Illinois. There was another movie called Noah, but I think that was Russell Crow. That was actually Noah's Ark. That was like much more so. Like biblical.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, all right. Much different. Whatever. Speaking of Russell Crow, we're getting off the fucking rails. Gladiator, too? No, they're making that. I know.
Starting point is 00:12:09 No. Have you ever seen the Pope's Exorcist? Yeah, dude. We talk about this all the time. It's so good. If you haven't seen that movie. It's slowly becoming my comfort show in the mornings, like a Sunday morning when I'm just like hanging out, drinking a little bit of coffee and I'm a little tired
Starting point is 00:12:23 and throw on Pope's ex-exorcist. Just get a couple of laughs in there. It's so funny. And I don't know if it's supposed to be. And that's the best part. It's definitely not supposed to be. Maybe they leaned into it like halfway through watching it. Like, all right, this is kind of funny.
Starting point is 00:12:35 We got to do this. Zooming in on thick Russell Crow riding a Vespa in full priest garbs. How many Cs in that thick? Like four C's thick. Yeah. Because he's sexy. He's a sexy priest. Sexy exorcist.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Let me tell you what. I can't say that. Sexy Priest. Sexy Exorcist. You can say sexy priest around Halloween. How about I say this? He's a sexorcist. Now, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:12:57 That always plays. That's real fun. That felt good coming up. Back to Bravo. What do we do? Okay, let's get into the shows. But before we dive into everything, I got to do a little quick plug for your boys.
Starting point is 00:13:09 We are doing our very first solo live show in New York City, January 25th at the Green Room 42. It's in Times Square. It's a Thursday night. The link is in our Instagram. Instagram, bio to purchase tickets. I will post it again across all socials, but go buy your tickets, come out and support us. We need your help.
Starting point is 00:13:27 We are selling tickets fast, which is amazing. But we want to have a big first show so we can continue to do more shows. So we can continue to do more shows all across the U.S. We want to come out to all the cities. You guys throw cities at us all the time. And trust me, we want to do a show in your city. We need these first few to go really well so that we can have the opportunity to go. to a Nashville to maybe
Starting point is 00:13:52 dip a toe in Atlanta. I don't know. D.C. What's on the West Coast? Seattle? Who knows? Lots of options. Naming cities? I was hoping you were to jump in and join and you just kind of looked at me like I was an idiot. How many cities can we name? Miami.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Why do you hit that thing so hard? It's going to break. Because I can't hear it. We can't hear it. So when I hit it, I want to feel it like that's the well when we did the episode with Matt I think we did
Starting point is 00:14:25 you Matt and I could hear it yeah it's fine it sounded great I need that one yeah we need that sound bite he's got to figure out how to work that thing Mr. Worldwide when does he become Mr. Universe he's getting there he's close
Starting point is 00:14:40 a little while hey he went from 305 to worldwide pretty quick though and we do have aliens let's save this for Miami what are we doing Buy a ticket. But up first with our current fave, we are back with Southern Charm and we are with the crew in Jamaica. And we start out with the dinner scene.
Starting point is 00:14:59 It's the end of that night. And Shep's still going off on Craig. And this whole thing is bizarre to me. I don't know why he's going after him for having a girlfriend that lives in New York. She's just in a glass case of emotion. Yeah, he's a mess right, man. But like, it's just weird
Starting point is 00:15:14 that he's trying to throw shade on Craig, he's like, it's not fair because you're not under a microscope. It's like, even if he was, he's not doing dumb shit. He doesn't get a pass because she lives in New York. He gets a pass because he's a good boyfriend. Yeah, it's just like a very weird take to make.
Starting point is 00:15:30 No. And be upset that your friend's girlfriend isn't around, so that you can't make him also feel shitty for being in a relationship. You know what I... And point to insecurities and point to potential, like, rumors? No, you know what he's talking about? Here's what I think it is. Okay. All right, from a very
Starting point is 00:15:46 deep psychological breakdown. Oh, yeah. All right, here we go. I think that Shep assumes that all dudes are scummy and do shady shit. So I think that he... The Shep has changed.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Oh, don't even get me started. We'll get there. We will get there. But he just assumes that everyone's doing shady shit. So he's like, because she's far away, you don't get caught.
Starting point is 00:16:05 That's the vibe I got from that. Yeah. I don't cheat on my girlfriend, buddy. And he's like... Could be right. That's what I think. I think you're using too much
Starting point is 00:16:12 brain power to figure out what Shep's doing. Oh, for sure. He doesn't know what he's doing. Yeah, that's a given, yeah. But the next scene, we get Olivia and Taylor, like, or sorry. But at that same scene, we're getting Olivia and Taylor, I guess, hash it out. I'm not really sure because Taylor gets emotional and she's trying to smooth things over very clumsily.
Starting point is 00:16:33 But I think that Olivia in this scene says it perfectly, where she's like, you don't get it. You don't get the gravity of the situation. It's falling on deaf ears because you're not understanding what you're. done right and that's the biggest problem she still thinks it's an austin issue that's the problem this has nothing to do with austin but austin he's like collateral damage in all of this that's what he's he's also it's a separate issue that he's a shitty person but taylor is the more shitty person because you're ruining the friendship with olivia and you can tell that taylor doesn't get it immediately because even after olivia says you don't get it this is what i'm telling you is
Starting point is 00:17:09 going on she still starts with i made one mistake yes like okay you don't understand even what it's told you. Here it is on a silver platter, Taylor. You still are looking at it dead in the eye and have no idea what it is and are still explaining away and talking about having forgiveness in your life. What does that mean? Like, now you're making Olivia feel bad because you want friends that are going to be able to forgive you in life because you forgive people?
Starting point is 00:17:35 It's like, I just don't get it. I don't understand it at all. And it's weird that this whole entire group seems to do that. Now that I think about it, when someone does something dumb, if they're not forgiven after X amount of days, they flip completely and they go, now you're the problem. I think the problem in this exact instance is that Shep seemingly forgave Austin right away. So it's tough because, I mean, Taylor, again, I don't understand where the hell she's coming from, but she's watching Shep and Austin who have been friends for 20 years.
Starting point is 00:18:04 They forgive each other immediately, or rather Shep forgives Austin immediately. So Taylor's looking at her friend, like, they can make up right away, and that's a more serious issue. I would actually argue that that is a more serious issue. Well, they've been friends for a long. That's Shep and Austin hooked up with Shep's ex-girlfriend for four or five years, like whatever. That's a completely different and much bigger problem. And it got swept under the rug immediately. The Taylor's sitting there like, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:18:26 That's because it's a Shep problem. Yeah. Because Shep doesn't know how to deal with his emotions, so you're getting this weird, like, we're all good, man. Everything's good. We're not good. I'm a mess, but we're good. Olivia is the only normal one in the entire group. Actually, though.
Starting point is 00:18:38 And Vanita. And Madison. Oh, yeah. Who would have thunk? She even handles herself. She is, but you still do get the old Madison popping up. We need that. This is the perfect little sprinkle in of old Madison.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Like, Madelson. Madelson. Mattelson. Mattelson. That sounds like... Old Madelson. Good old Madelson. That sounds like an old man that lives in your neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:19:01 No, that's an old man, Madelson down the road. I was thinking it was the drunk at the old Western bar in like the 1800s. Oh, that's old Madelson. Mattleson over there. Don't bother him, though. Oh, Madelson. You don't bother him then. So somebody said that you keep doing it the same.
Starting point is 00:19:14 impression for the same people. That's not true. I just thought it was really funny. I think I know the voice, though. I think it's the Lisa Barlow voice. I'm using up all of your thorns in the first episode. I know you are. I was going to use those.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I'm not. I do get stuck on the Lisa Barlow for Meredith sometimes, too, but they're similar. Those two are the same, but the Shep one is very distinct. Shep one's this, man. Yeah. No, the Shep one is very distinct. Thank you. And P.K. is not like anybody else.
Starting point is 00:19:38 PK's not, but then you do other English accents, and it just sounds like P. Well, yeah, but, you know. But, yeah. I get it. I understand. She thought it's a funny comment. No, I don't. But anyway, they're on the buses on the ride home, and Shep is hammered, and that's
Starting point is 00:19:53 why he gets on the bus, and I like that Vinita puts him in his place. Like, you're not going to talk to me like that. I love that she also throws shade at everybody else in the group, because she's like, you can talk to them like that. Yeah. But you're not going to talk to me like that. And I appreciated that. But the best part of this scene is just, and this highlights exactly what's going on between
Starting point is 00:20:10 Austin and Shep versus what's going on with Taylor and Olivia. Because Madison goes, look at these idiots. They're outside hugging. And you look outside and that's just pros. That's just pros being, hey, man, we're good. It's all good. Craig didn't even get mad that Shep did that, which is actually, that says more about Craig.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Craig has kind of removed himself and we've talked about it for weeks and weeks. He's removed himself emotionally from all of that. Yep. And he doesn't allow himself to get ruffled. He walks away if it gets too much. And he came back eventually and ended up giving Shep a hug and said that he didn't really care. He's like, whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:38 It doesn't matter. He says that he's deflecting because he has his own issues. I'm not going to get mad at that. That's very, he's matured. so much it's remarkable but on that ride home what did you think about madison's jt impression dude how happy were you awesome i mean it was it was fun i think that was great craig's shepp impression was really good too though because it i don't want to say the word that we always say but those two scenes juxtaposed working in congruance oh no it's clumsy
Starting point is 00:21:09 yeah congruence i don't know the word works you just said yeah i know because i want to whatever it doesn't matter anyway those two at the same time were great that was great television and they even added in this is where madison comes in that's great because madison's down here for her quote unquote last hurrah before she gets pregnant and she's leaning into it she's actually the only one there that's having a great time the entire time people can say things directly to her and she just brushes it off and walks away and then she comes back with another strike it's awesome she takes the shooter those two this isn't my fucking problem this isn't my fucking problem i don't care not going to bother me but i will make jokes about it yes
Starting point is 00:21:43 always that bus seemed so much more fun than the other bus oh the other bus that bus was living it up even though austin was kind of bitching in the back and he put his hat over his eyes the other bus was complaining and crying and talking shit on everybody and you know who was all in that bus j t taylor and jt and rod all these scorned people that have hate in the world for the other people that just get away with everything yeah losers listening to to taylor and rod talk about Shep and like J.T. jumps in. It's just, and I'm so glad, and it's what we called last week when J.T. was, like, standing up in arms trying to, like, you respect women and this or not. It's like, everyone sees through your approach, but Madison called it out immediately. As she's impersonating you. Austin called it out at the bar still. Oh, yeah, for sure. He's like, yeah, now we've got J.T. standing up saying things that I don't care. Like, cool, J.T. Yeah, who gives a shit? Nobody gives a shit what he has to say. But the fact that Madison impersonating J.T. is like,
Starting point is 00:22:42 Respect women. I'm a respectful man. I'm like, see, it doesn't work, J.T. This whole thing that you're the white night, it doesn't fucking work, dude. I'm not saying you've got to be an asshole. No. But there's levels to this. You're just like not mixed up in this.
Starting point is 00:22:56 You don't have to stand up and speak your mind and stand up for people when they don't care about you. You can be a good guy without telling people you're a good guy. How about that? Maybe just have some fun in Jamaica. But Rod does highlight. He thinks that Austin leveraged this whole thing. to get closer with Olivia. And we've talked about this before.
Starting point is 00:23:17 I don't know if that was, it might have been subconscious where he's like, ooh, like we're getting closer. I do firmly believe, however, his intentions were good here. And I think that they did trauma bond,
Starting point is 00:23:27 clearly. But I don't think that he went into it with a nefarious agenda, if you will. I do think that what came of it was feelings that were mixed up in the, in the whole thing. And that's what's making it so hard for both of them to move. move on from this thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:44 And that's his fault because he said, I love you. And I knew that was going to come back. And she talks about it multiple times now. And as soon as he said it, I talked about that episode. I said, that was fucked up. Yep. Because I knew that it was going to throw a wrench into the whole thing. And it did.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Because she even says, don't say things you don't mean. That tells me that Olivia is still hung up on Austin. Yeah. He made an actual effort to get back with her. She would have gotten back with him. I do firmly believe that. Probably or maybe not just because of the timing of everything. I still refuse to give it any light
Starting point is 00:24:14 until somebody else in the group. If Craig was talking about it like that, that's one thing because Craig knows Austin very well. So if he knows his intentions are a little nefarious and he did try to leverage a situation to get back with Olivia, then I would tend to agree with Craig there. At this point, we're still making up our own minds. We're still formulating our own opinions.
Starting point is 00:24:32 And somebody like Rod talking about it isn't going to sway me because we know what Rod's intentions are. He still feels scorned because Austin was hanging out with Olivia with her brow off and they maybe snuggled a little bit and watch a little bit of a movie even though they say they were on opposite sides of the room. Who knows? But Rod's pissed off, so of course he's going to talk shit on him off.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Yeah, and I'm not saying that Rod gave me this aha. No, no, no, no. I'm just saying him talking about it again. It reminded me like, yeah. It could come up in the group more if he talks about it to Taylor and then maybe Taylor says something later, and maybe that's the thing like with wheels go. Yeah, but when J.T. or Rod says something and
Starting point is 00:25:05 you think people just like brush it off? Yeah, and I think if Taylor's the mouthpiece for both. I'm like, well, Rod said this. Everyone's like, okay, okay. Here we go. Well, I think Taylor's like hanging in limbo right now between the cool group, which is all the people that we know. And the Dorps. And then Rod and JT. J.T. Ramrod. J.T. Ramrod.

Are you looking for a movie review show where the critic is at the top of his or her game, meticulously breaking down and explaining exactly why a film does or does not work? Well, good luck with the search, because we're having fun here on our.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Adam does movies. Each and every week, I hit the big blockbusters. I cover the streamers, and I even toss in some movie news for fun. Check out the show on Spotify, on Apple Podcasts, on YouTube. And hopefully, we can do movies together. Hot. The next day, we get everybody kind of waking up, shaking off the hangover, except for Bernita and Madison. They're good to go. Good for them. But we get Austin on the beach with Whitney. What does Whitney do that constitutes work other than produce this show. Dude, I have no idea. How is he going to sit there and pretend like he doesn't live off of Patricia's
Starting point is 00:27:15 money? Come on, man. You didn't get that presidential suite yourself? No. I have absolutely no idea what he could be doing at all. Like, maybe handling the estate. I don't even know if Patricia wouldn't even trust him to do that. No shot. She doesn't trust him to make a fucking martini. Yeah, that's a good point. I have no idea. Maybe he's just making it up and just saying
Starting point is 00:27:33 that he's working so that they can go do their thing and he can go sit on the beach. That's what I think. And then he can just pop up when he needs to. Just need to know what work means. I don't know. I don't know. We should look into that. Interviewing a new butler, perhaps.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Possibly? I don't know. I just, like, I do not know. Maybe he has to, like, telecom with his mom and walk her through things at the house. I think it's so he can say stupid things like, oh, you know, I've got some work done, went for a swim, went to the spa to sound like he's a productive businessman. Sounds like he went for a swim and went to the spa. And hung out on the beach. And it slept in.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And drank. And drank. And that's, you know. But just own it. Yeah, I know. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't know. I do keep getting hung up on the idea of Whitney sitting in a laptop in Jamaica.
Starting point is 00:28:13 What's he going? Nothing. I don't know. Is he a spreadsheet guy? Yeah, he's very proficient on Excel. But we get J.T. and Taylor. And my God, this scene. Actually, I'm before that.
Starting point is 00:28:26 But while they're sitting on the beach together, this is what pisses me off about Austin because he can't help himself. And if he didn't say things like this, it'd be easier for me to give him a pass on stuff. But he's talking about J.T. and Taylor and JT's whole attitude towards women and he's like he even says it nice guys finish last man pretty much like maybe you take a play out of my book it's like your book has landed you in this situation time after time after time no JT's game is awful but your game is not much better yeah you get laid but you leave a fucking warpath in your wake that's not good so I don't think he needs to take a page out of your book I don't think he needs to take a page out of his own book he just needs to have a whole different game plan we said that like verbatim i know three weeks ago now you're saying that we didn't say that i didn't maybe i was just me what do you mean i just talking to myself i said that j t needs to take a play out of austin's book and be an asshole if he wants to hook up to taylor i said yeah no i agree with
Starting point is 00:29:25 that if he wants to hook up yes totally let me let me reiterate here okay all right yes it works taylor confirms later it works in that same scene she's like i wish i was into jt i wish i was attracted to him i'm not girls like bad guys girls want to be with the asshole the unavailable guy all of that stuff i'm not saying that he can't take a page out of his book and stop being so needy and clingy and saying weird things like after you are leader which is more or less him saying my lady which is you know what i mean like dude that's not going to work you've got my insulin and you've got my heart in your hands god damn bro like what are you doing what a worm um no i mean this is where I still think that you and I are going to differ a little bit on just watching this show because I fucking love this scene with Austin and Whitney talking.
Starting point is 00:30:11 I thought it was hilarious, dude. No, it's not better. It's not that I agree with anything that anyone has said. It's just super funny to me because Austin has this whole portrayal of himself going into Jamaica. They have one bad night. He's sitting down with Just Whitney. This happens all the time when somebody sits down with Just Whitney, you get a completely different animal. You get, like, their innate thoughts.
Starting point is 00:30:34 And they just pop out primal. It's primal time with Whitney. That's what he does for work. That's his podcast. That should be his podcast, honestly. I would listen to that. That, no. No.
Starting point is 00:30:44 I would listen to that. That would get so creepy. Primal time with Whitney, somebody that has unlimited funds and getting primal. Do you really want to hear about what he's doing? Because I don't. Kind of. I don't want to hear about all the weird BDSM parties and all the weird. This is just what I assume super rich people do because they get bored.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Especially in Charleston, there's got to be. be some weird masquerade sex parties down there. Come on. Yeah. You know what I mean? I don't want to hear about it. That's okay. Let me get back to the show.
Starting point is 00:31:10 No, I love this scene because you get this completely different Austin who's going in there. Cracking jokes being an absolute dick. Whitney Egg and I get him on. That is what Southern Charm is. That's exactly what Southern Harm is. These guys are dickheads at the end of the day. And yes, we do cheer for them to get mature. Some of them break away completely.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Craig, great job. Others get held up. Shep is currently in that situation. Austin's in limbo. And we're seeing both sides of him trying to better himself and people acknowledging the fact that he's bettering himself. Even his fucking ex is saying he's going to therapy and he looks a lot better. However, he sits down with Whitney. All of that goes out the window and he starts being an asshole again.
Starting point is 00:31:44 That's funny. We're seeing the duality of man in real time. Yeah, we sure are. Wow. She keeps saying, I don't want to be verbally abused. Now, that's not what's happening to you. One, two, you did this. You don't get to dictate how long the punishment is.
Starting point is 00:32:01 and also it continues to come up and every time it does you do the wrong thing. Yep. That's the problem. That's why it keeps blowing up in your face. If it popped up again and like Olivia said,
Starting point is 00:32:12 you handle it immediately, hey, this just came out. I know you must be mortified. I'm so sorry. If there's anything you do, let me know. Like, nip it in the bud. Don't talk to the rest of the group and then talk to Olivia
Starting point is 00:32:22 because she approached you at the end of the night. You fuck it up. So there's more and more coming at you. You don't get to say, I'm done with this. I'm tired of quit verbally abusing me. because one, that's a very strong word, and you know it is. You know the word abuse is a, I hate the word, I hate the phrase, it's a trigger word.
Starting point is 00:32:38 I would say the verbal abuse came at JT's party earlier in the season. What Taylor is doing now is, like you said, it's a product of her own behavior or rather her own reaction to something else that's going on. Because all that really happened the night before was the situation came back up. And people were mad about it and arguing. You stayed quiet for the majority of it, mostly because you were crying. but that's okay. You only got involved because Shep got involved.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Boom. Shep leaned across the table and told you that you need to fucking apologize. You just need to get up and just grin and bear it and just apologize and apologize. That doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:33:13 No. Don't take advice from Shep. You dated him for four and a half, five years. He's an asshole. Don't take any advice from Shep. So just keep your mouth shut. Try to go with your heart. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:33:24 Just maybe accept the fact that you and Olivia are never going to be friends again. Don't try to spin it into this. You need. giving friends. And if Olivia is not willing to do that, you can't be friends with her anymore. That makes you an asshole.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Yep. If you're belittling the situation that's really tearing your friendship apart because of your actions, that's a little insane, Taylor. That's, you're an asshole. Yep. But we get Olivia, Vanita, and Madison, and they're all chit-chatting. And this is where we get clarification on what the underlying issue is, why Olivia can't move on from this stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:53 And she says, it's the inconsistencies that are fucking me up with Austin. I think we're cool. Something happens. He turns into an asshole. He acts like a piece of shit. shit then he's telling me he loves me it's all of these different mixed signals taylor's the same thing as soon as i think that like we're not moving forward but at least smoothing things over where they can be cordial together something pops off and she reacts poorly she's like i can't deal
Starting point is 00:34:15 with the inconsistencies in the matter and when i see it that way it's like yeah i mean that would piss me off too and also just the fact that it keeps getting thrown in your face over and over and not by those two it's a third party you can't help page six wants to run an article right but the way it was handled was poor. And that's the biggest thing. Stop being inconsistent in your behaviors, Austin, Taylor, be consistent. And the consistency with Austin comes in where if you're going to be the friend that's saying, I love you still, and I'm going to text you and do all these cute little things with you, then be that guy. Don't then be an asshole when you're with Whitney. On the flip side, with Taylor. If you're going to be the friend that's trying to work
Starting point is 00:34:53 back and get her in good graces, give her this space so you can understand why she's still upset with you instead of trying to force the issue and force her into an apology because you feel uncomfortable because you fucked up the situation. Yeah, I mean, that's a really good point, but they're never going to learn. This is just the M.O. for the entire group, and that's why this behavior continues, they never
Starting point is 00:35:13 change. Because nobody ever makes them change. Anytime that somebody gets yelled at, it's never really a coherent statement that's being made with, like, via yelling. Or it's somebody like JT, and you can just brush it off. Even when if somebody's yelling at you, like Shep was yelling at Craig, there's not
Starting point is 00:35:29 behavior to correct there. It's just what the fuck is Shep even yelling about? It doesn't even make sense. It doesn't make any sense. What are you even telling me to do right now? Because if I wanted to correct a behavior, I can't even tell what you're telling me to do. It doesn't make any sense to me. So this group will continue to just be the same, be the same, be the same. Whether it's somebody that just repeats the same actions or the
Starting point is 00:35:47 outside people who are just laughing at it, like Madison, like Vanita, that's all you're really going to get. Nobody's ever correcting anything. So I don't know. I just continue to chalk this up as Olivia is the most normal person on this show and it's really showing now. Yeah, no, I agree with that, but we get a little booze, cruise, and
Starting point is 00:36:05 on the way there, of course, Taylor's got a little pimple, and it's a cute little pimple, according to J.T. And guess what, everybody? Taylor has an imperfection. Really? Really? She has a list of imperfections
Starting point is 00:36:20 within this group. None of them physical, but there's a lot of imperfections, J.T. You don't have to announce to the whole group how badly you want to sleep with this girl we know we fucking know guess what the worst part j t she fucking knows and she doesn't care she banged your friend in paris let it go it's the last time i'm going to say it's so bad it's so hard to watch it's like a rom-com it really is like a bad rom-com yeah but it's like the part of the rom-com that i speed through because it's too awkward yeah like i am physically uncomfortable
Starting point is 00:36:52 when he says these things i can't imagine what taylor's like what do you say to that how do you respond to that? I don't know because Taylor cannot afford to respond negatively to him. She needs JT. She needs JT there. That's the only person at this point you don't even see Rod talking to her. Rod's kind of removed himself. I don't even know who the fuck he talks to. Rod talked to Taylor the night before
Starting point is 00:37:11 but he's not talking to her dormant like normal situations. Rod's fall from grace is something. Because in the beginning I'm like, I like this guy. He seems good Olivia. He seems normal. Livia likes him. Let's give him a chance. He even talked to Austin. He held his ground. That's great. Now he sucks. Now he's a hurt puppy dog.
Starting point is 00:37:26 Yeah. It's so sad. Yeah. Oh, I'm on the boost crews, we do get a quick Craig and page checking, which I actually appreciated because I always like to know where they stand because we don't know. Yeah. And we get a pretty black and white statement where I was like, whoa, okay, he's like, because of how big sewing down south is, I have to stay in Charleston.
Starting point is 00:37:48 I can't work remote. It's too big. If she doesn't make that move at some point, I think we're going to break up. Very quickly, like kind of reels it back and goes, but I would do whatever. takes. It's like, all right, all right. But that was a real answer. That was a real answer. That's our first real answer. Yeah. And I think we all knew that. And I don't think he's been like being coy about it. No. That was a very firm like, yeah, I don't think it's going to work if she can't move there, which at the very least, maybe we'll push the conversation forward
Starting point is 00:38:13 sooner when Page sees this episode. Now they can sit down and talk about it. I would hope that Craig would have the wherewithal to talk about this before the episode airs. Yeah. Knowing, yeah. New Craig definitely talked about it before the episode. He probably face timed her and said it. No, but I feel like that, I mean, that was the first legitimate, like, emotionally charged real answer that we've gotten in this entire situation. It came from Madison, which is great because Madison has this way of just pulling real answers out of people, which is really funny. She did it with Austin the first night that they were there talking about how he's still in love with Olivia. She does it with Craig. This is the first time that Craig is acknowledged. If she doesn't move down here, we're probably going to break up. We've heard so many runarounds with, well, you know, we'll have to see when it comes down to that. And, you know, she doesn't want to leave her family. And there's all. Always excuses, and there's so many answers. Now it's just a clear cut and dry, which we, like you said, we already knew. We've known this the entire time. This is how it's going to be.
Starting point is 00:39:04 He can't leave sewing down south. That's what's going to happen. Hopefully this, like you said, sparks a conversation, and we continue their relationship. I want them to continue. I do too, because I fear the life where Craig is without page. No, not with those idiots down there. Nope. No, sir.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Don't do it. Figure it out. And he can't leave Charleston. that's the worst part. If they were to break up, then he has to stay in Charleston. I'll figure it out. I know. I'm just fearful.
Starting point is 00:39:33 But we do get a quick conversation, which is the least surprising news ever, is Shep is a, Shep is a, there you go, there's a tongue twister. Shep is a selfish lover. Who knew? I didn't know that. Stop. Come on. You got me.
Starting point is 00:39:49 Come on. Captain Sardine over here. But you know what I do believe? You know, I got to get people their flowers where they're due. I believe Austin's a very generous lover. I actually believe. Everybody's got to have fun. I love the outlook.
Starting point is 00:40:00 That is the outlook you're looking for. I believe him. Everybody needs to have fun. Yeah, I think that's true. This is a group activity. Yeah, hey, if there's three people, four people, five people, who gives a shit? Everyone needs to have a good time. Even Whitney.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Well, all right. That's leading to the next one. All right. It's leading to the next scene because we get Whitney's room and Shep and Austin finally, finally, finally have it out. And it's been a long time coming. We've had little inklings here and there. they've gotten to little spats, but nothing solid. They finally go off and they're snapping.
Starting point is 00:40:31 And Shep's like, you're always playing a victim. You're always the victim. And I love that Craig is like the arbiter here because he's sitting in between the two of them. Like most friends are like, hey, guys, so they're like, no, get it out. Yeah. You get it out. Now what do you have to say about that? For this because we got a little bit of this up the mountains and then it kind of got shut down.
Starting point is 00:40:48 And the reason that they even started fighting up the mountains was because Austin, I don't even think Austin said anything about Taylor during that conversation. It was just that Shep said that it was fun to cheat on Taylor. Everybody had the same reaction, but he went after Austin because of those just feelings that are just keep boiling up and boiling up. This one started because they needed to get changed for dinner. And Shep told Austin to go get changed. And Austin said, you don't change, Shep, you never have. Yep.
Starting point is 00:41:14 What a weird way to start this one off. Clearly, there are issues that are not being addressed. If something as innocuous as that is going to set someone on. off. There we go. But it's been a powder keg for weeks. Yeah. Like we've been waiting for this to happen. Powder cake or powder keg? What was a powder keg? Powder keg? You said cake? No, I say keg, but I had like a burp in my throat. Sure. No, seriously. I would like that. I'll play the tape. Powder cake. Powder cake. Listen, powder cake. This is mate. This is what happens
Starting point is 00:41:46 when we record after 10 p.m. Shit gets wacky. I start singing nursery run. But during this scene, this is where we get the Austin and Whitney Kiss. And to, like, give somebody, I can't say that. Give somebody like a facial, like facial the floor. But to try to stick it to somebody that you're in an argument with by making out with your other friend, I thought it was a great move. I thought it was funny. I thought it was really funny.
Starting point is 00:42:15 It was a fucking power move. It was a great move. It really was. And it was a full-blown, open-mouth kiss. And I was like, I didn't think this was going to work. It totally played. well done Austin well done because now Shep is stunned Whitney's bricked up Whitney is so
Starting point is 00:42:30 bricked up yeah I mean who wouldn't be you know what I mean but it was hilarious and this is again we're starting to see and we've talked about this we're getting a little bit more information about how this all happens we've got a little bit of a timeline established now we know that Taylor's the one did it happen in a fish concert we don't he said fish concert that's the so okay every time you've had an issue is Whitney just go to fish concerts
Starting point is 00:42:53 The one, defending the time. Well, wait, what? Whitney goes to fish concerts to hook up with chicks. That's for sure. Without a doubt. I think that's maybe what he was saying. That's definitely happening. That's like the only time.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Okay. He doesn't even like fish. He just knows it's easy. Dude, he likes fish. You think he likes fish? Oh, yeah. No, see, I think he likes people to think that he likes fish. I think that he likes Hansen.
Starting point is 00:43:11 I have feelings about fish people, so I'm going to. I know you do. I don't want to piss anybody off.

Starting point is 00:45:02 Whitney Wolfe as she uses grit and ingenuity to break into the male-dominated tech industry to become the youngest female self-made billionaire. An official selection of the Toronto International Film Festival, the Hulu original film Swiped, is now streaming only on Disney Plus. But during the series, same scene. Do you think that Austin almost said that they fucked? No. You think that he was saying
Starting point is 00:45:29 fucking. He was drunk as shit. He was on a, you ever been on a booze cruise back in your day? I loved a booze cruise. I did too while I was on the cruise. And then after the cruise, things are messy. Your equilibrium is all over the place. You don't know what's going on. You're hot as fuck because you definitely didn't wear any sunscreen. You definitely could not have hung with me. dude i would have been and the swimming around all day while being like hammered it was and then you go out afterwards and you're tired and you're very drunk and you don't really know what you're saying i don't think he was leading to we fuck i think he was leading to because we fucking made out yeah and i actually believe that too i don't think he had a Freudian slip there i think
Starting point is 00:46:09 that they're looking too far into everything he's saying yeah the last scene we get is at the dinner table and and I appreciate the buttons on Craig's shirt much like Castellanos you need to drop them buttons you got to let it hang out you're in Jamaica you got to do that I didn't appreciate that they buttoned them back up let it fly no let it fly but but to wrap this scene up you referenced that earlier the craziest line I've ever heard out of chef is pretty much telling Austin to grow up I was this guy once I was you I was 34 I was a scoundrel you're a fucking scoundrel what do you now, Shep, in what world have you evolved in any way, shape, or form? You're the same guy.
Starting point is 00:46:51 You're just single now, so it's not gross. It's still kind of gross, but it's not fucking up someone else's life because now you don't have a girlfriend. That's the only difference. You're not changed at all. You're never going to change because you don't have to. That's what pisses me off. You know what?
Starting point is 00:47:04 When I didn't like this show early on, that's what made me so mad, is that these people have enough money, especially like a Shep and a Whitney, because I like the show, you know, I love the show now and I appreciate it for what it is. Yeah. People like that are never forced to change because they have fucking money and shit so they don't have the need to alter their lifestyle because if people don't fit their life, they can just move on from it and pay other people to hang out with them. It's a good point. I mean, we don't have to sit here and discuss too deeply that Shep hasn't changed at all. No.
Starting point is 00:47:34 He's, what, six months removed from cheating on his girlfriend, which, by the way, you cheating on Taylor, way worse than Austin hooking up with Taylor. Yeah. Way worse. That's way more of a betrayal. Absolutely. So, no, you haven't changed. You are a scoundrel. You're the blueprint for a scoundrel.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Where do you think Austin got it from? Boom. Yeah, there you go. So you can't sit there and say that. Neither of them have really changed much. We can give Austin his flowers for going to therapy and changing a little bit. Austin has, no. His approach has changed to certain situations, but you still see, look, obviously it's
Starting point is 00:48:04 not going to happen overnight. We can expect too much. But he's taking steps. And I have never seen Shep Teggs. No. No. Shep's taking steps is going around the world. and getting invited to some cool golf course in Australia
Starting point is 00:48:17 because he hooked up with some twins or something. Exactly. That's, yeah, it's just, yeah. That's who you are, Shep. That's it. But Austin, I actually agree just as far as I will give him credit. And I'm very critical of these guys in the show. But Austin has made noticeable changes. It will not happen overnight.
Starting point is 00:48:35 I don't know if it's sustainable, not the way that he's doing it. I think he's going to fall back into his old routine unless he kicks himself in the ass. but I do see a glimmer of hope, if you will. A glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope that he can get through this and come out the other side, a better person because he's this close. And he has Craig on his shoulder, and Craig has been put to the test because I've been on a high alert because I've been watching.
Starting point is 00:48:58 I'm like, I want to believe wholeheartedly that this is the new Craig because I like Craig. I like Craig a lot. We had it on the show. He's great. Loved watching him grow. I want him to be the guy that he seems to be. I've seen enough. He is.
Starting point is 00:49:10 The way that he's reacting to all of these situations, the way that he doesn't blow up, the way that he's pragmatic about breaking down the arguments from the other people, this is who he is. So to have that guy trying to lead you forward, the only issue is on the other side of the room, you got Whitney and Shep. Yep.
Starting point is 00:49:25 So you got to pick a lane. You got to pick a lane and figure it out for yourself. And I'm excited to see where it goes. I hope it doesn't blow up. I hope that in five years we're watching a Southern Charm Austin's wedding episode with somebody. That's what I hope for him, genuinely.
Starting point is 00:49:38 And I never would have said that. That is nice. Isn't that nice? Yeah, that's really nice to you to say. It's not going to happen. We're going to see him moving with Shep, but that's pretty much it. I might move in with Whitney at this speed. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I don't have to be taken care of. In what way? Any way you think. That was a hot kiss. I mean, we get to the dinner table. Not a whole lot happens other than Craig's shirt. You got to keep them buttons down, let it fly. Just like Castellanos, love that look.
Starting point is 00:50:05 But the table finds out that Austin and Shep had it out. Madison, great one-liner. She says, who was better, Whitney or Taylor, to Austin. Austin repeats his stupid line. You're just a boardhouse wife. It's not. It didn't land the first time. It didn't land this time.
Starting point is 00:50:19 The reason that she even said that in the first place is because you called her a board housewife. Correct. So, yeah. And you said it again. And props to Madison. She doesn't explode. She realizes that one, Austin's just deflecting. Yep.
Starting point is 00:50:31 And two, he's not worth your time. So she doesn't, she doesn't engage. And earlier when he said it, she just left the room. She got him. She got him like that is what you're supposed to do. Yep. That is Madison's retribution right there. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:50:41 You insulted her. She left. She got changed. She came downstairs. You said one thing. She heard about it. Boom. One liner gets everybody going.
Starting point is 00:50:49 Yep. You don't know what to do. You keep your mouth shut. You have to attack her. You can't even answer that. Like, dude, you could have deflected this so hard and said, well, you know, recency bias. You know, Whitney.
Starting point is 00:51:00 He's pretty good. There you go. Make a joke. Maybe a couple of people left. Maybe J.T. gets upset. Whatever might happen. Who cares? J.T.
Starting point is 00:51:07 stands up, takes off his shirt, starts yelling. you but that's all I got you got anything else no I guess we'll hold on until next week because Taylor does lead us on a little bit of a what's going to happen next and you know what they're doing yeah and I think I called this a while ago they're going to keep leaving these cliffhangers where Taylor's going to stand up and say you know what happened I'll tell you what happened and everybody's going to say they fucked and next week it's going to be I made out with Austin. It was my jaw. I did it three weeks after the reunion, and that's what happened.
Starting point is 00:51:42 There you go. I actually kind of hope that that's what she does. I don't think that that's how it's going to go at all. Nope. No, I think it's going to go horribly. I don't think this is going to go well. I think that... Maybe she just stands up and apologizes to Olivia again. Honestly, that would be okay. She was sitting there. She's like, why is everybody
Starting point is 00:51:57 giggling? Like, what? It's just... I don't... You're just on a boat all day. We are hammered, lady. We are sun poisoned and drunk. And I'm not kidding, dude, I used to love shit like that, and I would be the one that could keep going. This is my level of, like, island drinking. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:15 So one time I was on a booze cruise cruise, we got off and we were snorkeling at the beach afterwards, I found a crate, like a milk crate, you know? Like, you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, I know what you're talking about, yeah. I found a milk crate filled with, I think, cement in the middle of a reef, okay? Okay. My brain, treasure. Got to see what this is.
Starting point is 00:52:35 I, it was like 10 feet deep. I dive down and I drag this thing for 20 minutes going up for air, going down, and moving it like five feet at a time, back to shore. Do you know what it was? It was fucking cement. Everyone else was asleep. Did you break the cement apart? I wanted to.
Starting point is 00:52:54 I couldn't find it. There could have been something in there. Shut up. I couldn't find a rock. That's where my brain goes. There's got to be a reason that's in there. This is my point. Everyone else on the booskers was in.
Starting point is 00:53:07 their hotel room taking a nap before nighttime, I was dragging by myself. I was alone. Could a die? A milk crate with cement out of the ocean. That's a near-death experience. So my point, you couldn't have hung with me back in the day. Kid me? I wouldn't have found a lead pipe for you to
Starting point is 00:53:23 bust that thing open. Yeah, you would have, actually. You would be, that would be the one good thing. You would be, you would have egged me on, which would be nice. But that takes us to the question portion of the show and up first from Canterbury 25. The fact that this came out of nowhere. was hilarious and kind of hot. Canterbury, we kind of agree with it.
Starting point is 00:53:42 We kind of agree. We kind of agree. I'm into that. Up next from Allie B.08, is anyone else over the Taylor Olivia drama? I don't care who slept with who. No.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Not yet. Surprisingly. But that is kind of surprising that we're not over that yet. I know. We typically do get over those things pretty quickly. But I don't know if it's because
Starting point is 00:54:04 there's still so much else going on. So many question marks. not being forced. Yeah, and it's not one of those situations like we get with like Juan and Robin where we don't know any of the answers and people are just ignoring things. Yeah. People are emotionally invested in this within the group and things keep popping up and it's not getting resolved.
Starting point is 00:54:23 I actually don't know the answer to this. Yeah, I don't either. I think we're just enjoying it for some reason. Yeah, quit being a bummer, Allie. No, yeah, Allie. Now I'm going to think about that. No, you're fine. You're fine.
Starting point is 00:54:33 I don't know. We're not over it. It's fucking good TV, man. Yeah. from Susie says rank the guy's matching outfit sets Shep Austin and J.T. Austin, Shep, J.T. I'm going to go Shep.
Starting point is 00:54:50 J.T. Austin. J.T.'s fucking stripes. Yeah. Just because it's him wearing it. It's so fucking perfect. He looks like a little like sailor boy. I don't know. That's what he, yeah. He looks like a little sailor boy.
Starting point is 00:55:04 It fits. That wasn't the question. you're ranking them. I did. Which one I enjoyed the most was JT's, especially because Madison put it on. And by the way, fit perfectly.
Starting point is 00:55:16 Yeah, I know. It's actually kind of tight on Madison. All right, we got two more from Sin Lou. Can the Brav Bros. Give one another a kiss, Whitney and Austin style? No. Maybe one day.
Starting point is 00:55:28 But only because I don't want to turn shooter on too much. That's all. That's a good point. Yeah. But from Mike Bros. In the spirit of this picture, A lot of kissing questions. Oh, it's because you posted the picture of them kissing, huh?
Starting point is 00:55:40 Yeah. Okay, cool. Oh, yeah. From Mike Bros. In the spirit of this picture, if you had to kiss any guy on Southern Charm, who would it be? I like this question. Who would you smooch? Who are you smooching?
Starting point is 00:55:50 Smooch, Austin. Oh, really? Yeah. No, I don't know where that sounds been. Smooge Craig, but then you'd probably fall in love with them. Yeah, that's a good point. He's already have the same voice. Something weird would just happen.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Not Whitney's I don't want to The mustache That's why we couldn't kiss I don't feel your mustache No No I'm good
