Bros & Shows - Drew, Drama and Grenada (RHOA Full Recap)

Episode Date: June 4, 2025

What's up bros? The crew heads to Grenada but not before stocking up some donations. Brit donates 3 boxes of tissues which was a bizarre move. She continues to go further and further down the rankings. Porsha and Drew sit down to hash things out and accomplish absolutely nothing. We need them to move on at this point this storyline is dead. The drama is palpable as we head down to Grenada. Mostly centered around Drew. Drew and Shamea are still at odds because of the lapdog comment/ Shamea telling Porsha about what Drew said in regards to PJ's college. Again, we feel like we can move on from this whole thing. Theres a lot of tit for tat going on with the ladies and we would like a united front at some point or another. Angela brings up Shamea coming to them about Porsha. Phaedra starts to put some feelers out in the group and were curious what her role will be this late in the season. We actually are enjoying this season, its not the best, but its certainly not the worst and we are hoping they can finish strong! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I would much rather be in Grenada than homesick. We've got two sick bros coming at you live today. Not feeling good. And this is now, I think, week three or week four of trying to figure out of people like this season. Because I cannot tell. I don't know. I think it's fine, but I can't tell what the general public thinks about this at all. Discourse online is insane.

Shows, bros and shows, I got to have me my bros and shows. Bros and shows. Brows and shows. I got to have me my bros and shows. Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of Bros and Shows. I and your co-host, Steele Russell, joined as always by the one and only infirmary goots. What's up, dude?

Boys are in the infirmary this week. Boys are struggling. What a time. Look, I mean, this is what happens, though. If you're not feeling great, you're feeling a little sick, maybe you're working at home, maybe you call out of work. What are you going to do? You're going to sit around and watch reality TV.

So it actually bodes really well for our watchability unless you have a fever dream in the first half of the episode and don't know what the hell's going on. Guilty. Guilty of that in Atlanta. So this first half is, like, luckily not a whole lot happened. Um, but yeah, I was watching this yesterday because we were going to record yesterday. I was dangerously ill. Uh, and then Shooter texted me while I was dangerously ill saying that he was leaving work because he was so sick.

We had tried to like muster through it and, uh, like, let's watch Atlanta and see where we're at after that. I texted him about halfway through because I was on my couch like just sweating. I felt horrible. And I was like, how you feel? And he's like, I can't finish this. I have cold sweats. I can't do this. And so we pushed it to today.

We're both doing a little better. It's so funny, though. And like I talked about this in our little cold intro there. I don't know if people like this or not. And I'm sure like our audience will sound off. They'll ask his questions. They'll send us comments, whatever it might be. It's funny because with the extra time that I had,

I was just going down rabbit holes for different Bravo things, as one usually does. And I landed on something for Atlanta. and it started with somebody tweeting out, and I talked about this a few weeks ago with Bravo tweeting it out, is Drew having a good season? Are we ready to admit that Drew's having a great season? And I haven't really seen it. I don't think she's having a terrible season,

but it's not a standout. We saw like the first half of the season, Shamea was really great. Angela's been awesome, pretty much the whole season. She's a great newbie. But Drew doesn't really come up on my radar. So I'm looking through expecting people to say,

what show are you watching? Instead, it's a lot of pro- Drew stuff. She's got a lot of support. Lord, our, listen, our audience really likes Drew, too. They give us a lot of shit because we give Drew shit. And like, here's the thing to address that. I like Drew, actually. People might not think that, but I do.

I just call her out for certain things because the way that she operates sometimes is like a big question mark. I don't understand Drew. But I give Drew all the credit she deserves. I think that she's an integral part of the show. You're the one that shits on our music. I don't do that either. I just, like, the way that she operates. is confusing to me.

So I talk about her a lot. But it's not because I want Drew off the show or anything. I think she's having a fine. I think either of us have said that. That's the best part. I think she's doing good. She's not my favorite, but I think she's doing just fine. She's had a solid season. All of the things that we talk about when it comes to Drew, none of them are immediately,

all right, we need to get her out of here. There's only one person on this cast that I just truly thinks needs to go, and that would be Brit. Right. But when it comes to Drew, we question whether she's, telling the truth we get shit for that people comment like people like she doesn't laugh at anything i'm like they call her drew nochio what we're not making it up like what's going on the entire cast whether it was in their confessional or right there in the moment told drew that she lies about

everything and yet when we say it we get in trouble he's going on here it's okay we still love you guys yeah let's get into this episode before i get too sick to finish uh we start out with shaman getting all the donations ready to head to Grenada. They had a lot of shit. That was pretty cool. They had boxes on boxes on boxes stacked up to send, obviously after that really bad hurricane down there. They wanted to send whatever they had to help out.

So I thought it was pretty cool to see or gather all that stuff and watching her daughter like, oh, come on, that still fits. And she's like, nope. Whether it's toys or clothes or whatever it might be, any toddler, any child under the age of like seven or eight is going to look at a box full of old clothes or old toys and immediately say that they want it back. That's just how that one. Oh, yeah. I do

that. I haven't seen that in so long. I'm going to play with it right now. I'm like, no, you don't. I'll do that shit myself. I'll be like, all right, I'm going to clean out my clothes this this week. And I start to it. I'm like, oh, I can't throw this shirt away. It means too much to me. And it's like, well, that's why you have all these shirts you don't wear. It's falling apart of the seams. And instead of you being like,

yeah, I should throw it out. You're like, I'll keep it. You should know me. You should know me better. You should know me better. If it's falling apart, that means it's prime ready to wear. That's part of my wardrobe. It's brand new. I'm probably not going to put it on. I need to be worn.

If you put on a shirt like that in the middle of summer, you're probably going to get sunburned through the shirt. That's how worn out it is. Yeah, that's a steel shirt. Yeah, that's me. So Brit shows up with one box full of four boxes of tissues from what I gathered and says, oh, there's way more coming. and someone's going to drop it off. No, they're not. You're a liar.

You brought four boxes of tissues. She has a garage full of shit. Kelly's got a car full of shit. They're taking this seriously. Britt, you pull up. And the first thing that you have to talk about, by the way, is I'm pissed off of my event planner for how the country club thing went. Apparently, her and Michael didn't pay the bill for that.

Did you see that this week? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I saw that in our comments. I saw that in the Bravo sphere. I saw that everywhere. She's the worst. She really is.

How do you not, if you are doing this, and I'm going to, obviously, you know, this is going to make a lot of sense, if you're Brit and you see, this is all I have is a box full of four tissues, I have choices here. I can, A, show up with those four tissues and say that I have a lot more. B, show up with those four tissues and say, this is all I have. Or C, you can say, hey, I'm not going to show up today. I got something else going on. And then you can just say you donated on the side or whatever,

if you still want to lie. No, she's still going to show up and do that and then lie just so she can get the camera time. That's where I'm getting really annoyed with Britt is that she shows up and does all of these things. And it's either not authentic or she's annoying and pushing some weird agenda. I have a feeling she's going to push a weird agenda when it comes to Fajara. We'll talk about that a little bit later. Yeah, what the fuck? Yeah, I know.

She's going to be attached at the hip when it comes to Fajara. So I just, I get no enjoyment out of her being on the screen. And we just don't need her anymore. And I think, I think the majority of the audience is going to agree with that. Yeah, I haven't seen any Brit Edy supporters out there. And I agree with you. Like, if you're going to drive over there and have this fake scene and like force yourself onto the camera, stop at a grocery store and buy a bunch of canned shit.

Yep. Go to the dollar store and buy a bunch of fucking napkins and like water bottles. Go do something. the box you showed up with is insulting to people that need help. That was the funniest thing. I'm looking at this box. I'm like, what do you think they're sad? They need a fucking tissue?

Like, what the hell is going on here? It was terrible, especially to, again, see it juxtaposed to just boxes and boxes of clothing and actual things that these people need. So nice job, Brit. Even in helping people, you can't fucking do it. But the whole trip is set to reset, evolve, and change. change as every housewife trip is. We've heard this before. So we know what the drill is.

We know what they're trying to do. But let's get to Portia and Drew because they're going to sit down finally and have a conversation. Finally. I don't know if this was fever me. I don't know what they really talked about. Like what really got accomplished because like Portia wants to clear the air. Obviously Drew has signed with Dennis officially. and you know the timeline's a little wonky or something but like she's here so like let's talk

okay let's talk first of all the ginger and turmeric tea that was a whole debacle what what the fuck is going on with that she's like no no ginger i was like who would get the get her the tea why are we still talking about the tea it went on for so long and they kept going back to it because i thought it was a waitress comes back with the black tea yeah i know you probably thought you were living in a simulation. I was tripping balls. I was like, what the fuck's going on with the tea? I'm too sick for this.

You're like, is Peacock messing up? Are they just like replaying the scene for me? I don't need this. I thought it was just like jumping back 10 seconds. I was like, I'm never going to finish this episode. It's a hellscape right now. It's really funny that like the timing of it is very odd because this is a conversation that should have happened six weeks ago.

And we agreed with that. We talked about that. We actually got through the entire cycle of talking. about this to the furthest extent that we could get to and decided this isn't worth us talking about anymore. Lo and behold, as soon as we abandoned it, they're going to sit down and have a meeting. If they did this and the same thing got accomplished, which nothing got accomplished, six weeks ago, I think it would have been funny.

I think it would have been, okay, you guys sat down, you guys are both just not going to agree to anything and you're not going to be specific in a timeline and nothing's going to get accomplished, but it's kind of funny because we did want you guys to sit down and you sat down. So thanks for that. six weeks later i'm like come up really we're going to do this now and when they do they both are so like steadfast that neither of them have done anything wrong that they just kind of bark at each other and then they both go their separate ways like hey do you we have to bark around here

we're not a lot of dogs i'm not calling anybody a dog i'm saying that they got mad at each other but drew brings up the filming with ralph i'm like that's fair because she's pissed off at you for filming with Dennis. So, like, it clearly looks like a tit for tad thing. And we've heard a lot of this shit already. It's like, you know, Drew's going through a divorce, so she's not dating. Now there's a rumor out there that she's dating black. I don't know who that is, but Portia brings up the fact that she's dating this dude named

Black. If you guys know who that is, hit us up in the comments so that we can catch up. And then Portia's apparently dating somebody else that we can't say the name. It gets bleeped. So, or was Drew the one dating the guy that got bleeped? or they both get leave it's Porsche it's Porsche okay cool sorry I told you it's hard to get this it is confusing it was a very confusing scene because they went off topic so quickly to everything else that's going on like we're not even talking about Dennis anymore now it's no be honest about

who you're dating Drew Drew actually I think had a really good reason it's a messy divorce I'm not really dating like yeah maybe she's seeing somebody here or there if she doesn't want to divulge that information I'm fine with that I don't have any issue with Drew doing that usually I would I would try to hone in on something if I thought somebody was being fake. But in this situation, we watched her whole divorce. We're watching her and Ralph just completely go after each other in the courtroom, outside of the courtroom, living in the basement, whatever the fuck's going on.

If she doesn't want to talk about a guy that she might be kind of flirty with and maybe dating a little bit here and there. Maybe they have like a casual hookup every now and then. Of course you should understand that. She's also going to do. Is she not going through the same shit with like a shitty divorce? Like you'd think she'd be a little bit more understanding. Yeah.

I feel like I have more respect for Drew because at least we were able to like put a face to the name kind of I guess they blurred his face out in the picture but we at least got a name yeah they went to Portia and Porsche said no you can't say his name on here so we're going to blur that out so I don't know yeah we didn't really get anywhere when it comes

to this and I'm not really surprised got accomplished and obviously Porsche is going to take the stance of well Shamea invited me to dinner and Ralph happened to be there as soon as Drew brought up the whole film with Ralph thing, I knew where Portia was going to go with that. And Porsche is way too smart to understand that we're going to sit here and be like, yeah, yeah, totally.

You got blindsided by that. Ralph wasn't supposed to either. No, you knew. Either you told Shamia to do that or Shamia told you, hey, I'm sitting down with Ralph and you said I'm coming. You did not have to go. Right. So you were definitely involved in no shenanigans.

So don't act like you weren't. Let's actually break it down a little. Let's break it down a little further. Why did Porsche go to that? that because she me went there to potentially talk about a business deal i don't really believe that to be fair but she me it went there with some sort of topic to discuss portion didn't have to be there she just wanted to be there to be petty so it like i and that's my problem when it comes to a lot of this and a lot of the storylines and the backstabbing going on own it if you're going to be petty just own

it it's so much cooler it's so much better and i have so much more respect for somebody when they just sit there and say yeah i did that and you know what i can give credit to drew in that regard because like she's not backing down from anything i'll give her that this season because even in this moment when portia leaves she says like oh this is why simon's leaving you so why shemia's leaving you i was like oh damn i was like she's gonna watch that back that's going to sting this is this is going to seem like we got bullied into becoming a pro true fans no it's just we flip this is what happens like we'll take all different sides when we see something we're like that's stupid.

Portia's acting like none of the shit that she's going through is the shit that Drew's going through. Yeah. Being so not understanding of it. It's like, it's just frustrating to watch, you know? And like, it is by going to lunch with Ralph, that whole thing. It's like, what were you trying to accomplish there? And when we watched the scene, you hardly talked.

Like, all you were doing is making jokes about who he's hooking up with. Like, what were you doing there? So, yeah, I'm just calling it like a weird. It's a weird level of hypocrisy coming from Porsche that. Yeah. You know, we should probably answer hypocrites, but I don't like it. No, we don't like hypocrisy. So, yeah, guess your team drew now.

But we get to Kelly and her kids, and they're just getting everything straightened out before she heads on this trip because she will miss the first day of school on her trip. And, you know, most of them are not okay with that. The older ones aren't concerned. I know her kids are great. The older ones aren't really concerned about that. They're more thinking, what's our budget as far as like first day of school close? the scope because we got to pick out our fits that's a big day we all know that you remember that that that will set the tone for your whole year you show up looking like a nerd nothing wrong with nerds

i'm just saying if you show up in the wrong fit you're setting the tone right you are big day but lamont is her publicist uh and has been her publicist since she was with her ex mark which is important to note but he's going to take over the duties of dropping the kids off which i really need a camera in that car for that. I really need to see Mar or Lamont having to drop these kids off at school. I typically don't like it when we're on a cast trip and we have to bounce back to whatever city we're in to see what's going on with anybody who was left at home. This one I'm all for.

I really need to watch this first day. It would be so fucking funny. Yeah. But just to show you again what a big piece of shit Kelly's ex is Lamont had facetamed Mark in an attempt to talk to him. I guess they had a close relationship as well when they were still together. And I think he's trying to relay to Mark like, hey, your kids miss you. Like, where the fuck are you?

And when he brought it up, all he said all he got was a bunch of knows. Hey, the kids are growing up and he responded with no. Yeah. That sucks. That really sucks. That really sucks. Yeah. That's tough to hear across the board for anybody watching this.

Yeah. And especially knowing. And like, I never really understand this. When people just are okay with being a piece of shit and being portrayed as a piece of shit, you know that she's on a TV show that like millions of people are going to watch and they're going to bring this up and you're still going to look like an even worse piece of shit. And you're okay with that. Why?

Like, we're going to figure out who you are very quickly. Oh, yeah. Everyone already knows who this guy is. And that's the thing. It's like you are now publicly known as a bad dad and an asshole. Nice job, Mark. And of course, it's always a. Mark, you know, it's always fucking Mark.

Not you, Mark, this Mark. Yeah. You're Mark and you're listening. Not the Love Hotel Mark. Yeah. Not that, Mark. I have a really funny story about that when we get to that episode. We're recording that next, but let's get to Grenada.

We get to the airport. Angela's excited to meet Fadra. Fadra is shocked with how old Angela looks for being as young as she is. Yeah. So it's going to be a fun trip. That sets the tone pretty early. Yeah. they get to Grenada, Shemia's bag didn't arrive, and Fager's doing some digging on,

where's the beef? And where's the beef? There's one word answer, and that's Drew. Drew seems to have shit going on with pretty much everybody in the cast, which will be addressed this evening. But we get the title card, Chapter 1, Rebirth. That's the first step of this Grenada trip is rebirth, so we're picking roommates. A roommate's already decided, sorry. So Kelly and Shemia get the main villa.

Makes sense. They plan the trip. Britt and Fadra, Oceanic Suite. I think that was just, Fadre doesn't know Brit yet. This is the easiest one. Just stick her with her. They love the assignments. Portia and Angela, I think, is the best one for those two. That makes the most sense to me because, yeah, they feuded kind of, but not really.

And this is a chance for that to maybe re-team. Angela moves on so quickly from all of that that she's able to just make jokes now. Go to your confessional. It's not going to be a problem because Charles is back home. So I don't worry about. not her trying to sleep with them ha ha well done angela nice and then the last room is drew and cynthia which makes sense because cynthia and even cynthia and her confession is like give me drew chow i'll take drew i'll take drew i'll do it no problem everybody it's the only one that

makes sense to just have drew i'll take drew yeah you come on over peacemaker peacemaker that's what she's not that's what she's done this whole season is just be the wise o g hotless she has been unbelievable this season such a great addition and her pop it and we're over to love hotel this week was even better. I know. We got a little double of Cynthia. That was awesome. But they arm wrestle for beds, which is funny because Drew got stuck with the twin

beds again. And then she wins and gets the king bed. But I was proud of her for going, you know what, Cynthia, you take the big room. That was nice. I don't think we see that in most housewife shows. If you win the big room, most of you're not going to give it up, right? The room assignment thing is relatively new, I feel like. Because if you look back and you watch any of the other housewife shows from like,

give it like four or five years ago. it's it was always a race and the race was always pretty funny yeah people always got their feelings hurt but i've noticed the the subtle change on these cash trips they're getting assignments i wonder what's going on there i want to be part of it maybe there's too many fights after the the run to your room thing i think actually we would have no way of doing this now that i'm thinking about it but we should be able to vote on the rooms oh that's actually kind of fun but i don't know because it would be we don't know what's going on in the season it Yeah, yeah, it would be.

Oh, that's a good point. Well, I guess you don't know, really, because it could be totally different from last season, but that'd be even more fun because if people just voted for Porsche and Drew. Yeah, exactly. That's what would happen, though. If you gave me, you left it up to us. If we knew, we would, we would pick a suite of Porsche, Drew, and just see what happens. Yeah, and just, like, throw away the key and see who comes out.

Yeah. But while they're there, Drew makes a shady post at Shemia, which is a bold move by tagging her in That's the stuff she does, though. And I'm like, why would you do that the second you get there on the trip and not say anything to her. Especially if you're acting cool to her face and taking pictures with her and dancing around and acting like everything's fine. You're going to go post something on Instagram. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If she stood her ground and gave Shimea's shit right then and there and then posted it, that kind of adds up.

I think she would actually respect that. So I think we'd be in a weird, definitely a different situation, but a little bit weirder than what Drew's up. up to right now. So I don't know. She puts herself in these positions all the time. Anytime you think like, all right, we're kind of cooling down. Everything's going to be okay. You know, you kind of expect what you get when it comes to Drew. You're probably not really going to get an apology, but you'll get some reasoning as to why she thinks the way she thinks, and then you'll move on because it's not worth your time anymore. But if you're going to do this, it's just going to further it. So it's going to be a messy trip for Drew.

It's just a weird way to start it out. And that's what I was saying earlier. The way that she moves and operates is confusing to me. Therefore, we talk about it a lot. But Cynthia lets us know about her man, Amsterdam. Hell of a name. Great scocher. Wonderful. I wonder if that's actually his name, though, because she said, I'm not really ready to show you guys what's going on with him and who he is. We're not very public. We didn't really get to see his face. I wonder if that's his name or if she met him in Amsterdam. God, I really wanted to be his name. Because I have this image in my head of this, like, tall, dark, handsome man named Amsterdam with Longtrens. That's just like this, like, generational lover and Cynthia bagged him.

And he's like, they hope nine. Like, that's what I see. I really hope so. That's what she deserves. So, and of course, his name is Amsterdam because he's a worldly fellow. And he, you know, that's, that's the vibe I get. He probably plays an instrument, you know, like, I need Amsterdam to be his name. Yeah, but he plays an instrument.

like low key like he doesn't do it to get attention at a party or anything it's just like hey by the way i play the piano it's like oh no here's how it would come up cynthia would go to his place and be like oh like after like a year and be like oh what is is that a piano and he like oh yeah you know i dabble please play something for me and then he like breaks out like fucking moonlights florida lee or yeah something crazy and you're like wow of course amsterdam's that good at the piano amsterdam anyway Let's get back on track here. Yeah, we're done crushing on this guy that we don't even know.

I never see his face, but this is what I get from him. Drew, talking about her dating. And this, again, kind of hammered at home. And I believe what she's saying when she's like, you know, I'm not really meeting people at the moment. I'm focused on the divorce because Ralph is so damn petty. Yep.

And I even sat down with Portia to clear the air with us. And, you know, she's filming with Ralph. But the conversation lasted all of 15 minutes. I think Cynthia's take is the correct take. Yes. Because there's clearly no way forward here. So let's just go with calling it even. They went tit for tat.

You filmed with Dennis. She filmed with Ralph. You're both mad at each other. You're both going through bad divorces. Let's just chalk it up as like we're not going to get this one. Yeah. I think chalk it up as when you say tit for tat when it comes down to a show like this, it's let's chalk it up as a bad storyline.

We don't need to go anything on this. We're going to be bored watching this at home. tit for tat you guys are even let's just chalk it up everything's fat yep i like that i think that's the best way to do it but let's go to dinner we get our cars to the restaurant uh fadra lets us in on the funeral business going very well love to hear that people are dying to meet jesus as she says which i hope is the slogan of her funeral parlor probably is i would i would hope it is that would be really funny just to lean into it but the best part is like looking at the cars side by side they're talking about do dead guys get boners and

other car is just silent it's like i want to be in that in the fadro car yeah i like the other car better let's talk about rigor mortis more like rig a penis uh dinner let's get to dinner um it's this is interesting and and angela and charles are going to start having a lot more to answer for like the whole like we gave him a little bit of leeway because of knowing who he was early in the season he's like an old athlete all scared of us Um, right, that too, the fact that we're both scared of Charles Oakley, that also plays into it as well. But he's going to start answering for some shit because between this and the scenes from next week where he doesn't even miss her according to him, it's their eighth anniversary. And she's spending it with these ladies on a trip.

That's already a little weird. There's already a bit like a lot of question marks. I get that they're like the cool couple. You know, we're cool. I don't need to be together all the time for big things. I don't know. There's some flowers and a bottle of champagne while she's down there. like what are we doing here something right i act like you give like half a shit i don't know yeah stay

on face time for longer than two or three minutes say you miss her i don't know is i love you once about that i love you try it it would be nice could be transformative who the hell knows but they're talking about the nude man in the window uh who we heard about earlier and then we get to uh happy endings which is of course the logical next step in that one naturally I didn't know that that was a thing. Happy endings? I knew that was a thing. I just thought it was, you know, dudes.

Yeah. I did not always. I had no idea. No, no kink shaming. I just had no idea. The more you know. Interesting. The more you know, right?

Interesting. But anytime you hear this at a housewife's dinner on a trip, setting the tone for the trip, but come together and reset. as Kelly starts to say this never goes well at least in my recent house wifery I've never seen this go well but what do you think goes better though starting it off with a reset or talking about how we need to reset before dinner or hey guys you want to play a game oh I think the reset because at least there you get to say nice things to start

it out the game you're just waiting for somebody to say something shady evil always shady yeah i think the reset like let's clear the air is always a better start it doesn't it usually ends the same way but i agree yeah but she sets the table with shamiya and drew i think you both can be bigger and better you know the whole called me a lap dog thing because you missed represented what i was trying to say about pj's college blah blah blah blah blah blah I think the end of the day, once again, I don't think she deserved to be called a lap dog because I think that if Drew really thought about what she said, I thought she was being shady when I heard her say the comment about PJ's college. I thought she was being shady because it's implying that she needs to be there to do well to take care of Porsche's kids. That's shady.

So could she be upset about the fact that Shamia took that? and went to Porsche, yes, okay, be mad about that part of it, but also understand that she fucked up a little bit. Shamiya, stop telling everybody everything because you're Porsche's best friend. She doesn't have to know everything going on. Yeah, I agree. There's two sides to it.

So like, another chalked up. That little hesitation that you had before you said best friend, I wasn't sure where you were going to go with that if you were just going to reinforce the lap dog nature there. No, I, uh, there was a little less patient. I don't think she's a lap dog. I do think that she puts herself in precarious positions because of her loyalty to Portia. I do think that also in the realm of these shows, you can just let the cameras do the work for you.

You don't need to go run and tell. If it comes out later, it comes out later. All you have to do is show face and make sure that you're defending your friend in that moment. So that way, when that friend watches that scene, they can say, got my back. I like you. You didn't go run and tell me and go snitch, but you did at least have my back in the moment. That's all we really need here. If you do this too often, people are going to stop telling you stuff, and that's integral to the whole game. That's integral with the whole show. You want to be part of the show. You got to be one of those people that people feel like they can

confide in. That's what you got to do. I agree. Well said. Well said. But Drew takes it a step further and again like these are the kinds of things like a hit dog don't holler it's like bro funny funny why this one i actually laughed at though that's i didn't it's gotten to the point now where it's like all right you are well past doubling and tripling down you're just telling her right to her face which i always support it's funny you think that it could go the way this conversation was going i think that that was the bridge that was the fork in the road drew can apologize here she can say something that can try to spin it and then at least get to a better place.

Instead, she goes right for the dog analogy. Once again, that's so fucking great. I just, I love that she's just standing down, 10 toes. I, I just need some kind of movement into a, like, resolve eventually. I can't have,

no, I think it has to get worse before it gets better. It's pretty fucking bad. Nobody likes her. Like, at what point do you, like, take a step back and be like,

all right, can I solve some of these things? Like, some of them aren't her fault. I'm on her side with the, Porsche's shit, even though she's being shady with Dennis. But I feel like at this point, Porsche is just trying to drag out a storyline with it. And you've gotten the tit for tat moment with Ralph.

I think at the end of the day, I'm getting to the point where I'm bored of these things. I am definitely bored. I'm bored, but you know what? It takes two to tango with a lot of these storylines. So it's not just, if Drew's just refusing to move forward and refusing to take any ownership on this, they need to keep going after her and make her life uncomfortable for her to actually do something and for us to further this otherwise it is just as much their fault that we're still watching all of this and hearing about all of this if you want to just stand there and just deny

deny deny then go for it that's fine i'm just happy that drew's not sitting there every chance that she gets which she could do easily and i i would be annoyed by it but i would get it she's not sitting there saying look guys i'm going through a really hard divorce right now she's said it a couple times here and there and she is going through a really hard divorce but she's not using that as the scapegoat for everything like hey oh she's answering you know what my emotions are really high right now because of what I'm going through with Ralph I didn't mean that I didn't mean that you got to give me some leeway here instead she's like nah fuck that I don't know I kind of respect it in a weird way I respect it I respect it but

Welcome to Nightvale's official recap show and unofficial best friend food podcast. Join me, Meg Bashwinner and fellow try hosts Hal Lublin and Symphony Sanders as we dissect all of the cool, squishy, and slimy bits of every episode of Welcome to Night Vale. Come for the insightful and hilarious commentary and stay for all of the weird and wild behind-the-scenes stories. Good morning Night Vale, with new episodes every other Thursday. Get it wherever you get your podcasts. Yes, even there.

I'm Amy Nicholson, the film critic for the LA Times. And I'm Paul Shear, an actor, writer, and director. You might know me from the league, Veep, or my non-eligible for Academy Award role in Twisters. We come together to host Unspool, a podcast where we talk about good movies, critical hits. Fan favorites, must season, and case you miss them. We're talking Parasite the Home Alone. From Greece to the Dark Night. So if you love movies like we do, come along on our cinematic adventure listen to unspooled wherever you get your podcast and don't forget to hit the follow button angela steps in and takes the conversation a totally different direction and starts talking about shemia and portia in regards to shemia comes to us airing out some grievances she's not

prying into your friendship portia she just brought us some shit that she wanted to talk about Portia said, if you're going to talk to her about our friendship, I wish you would talk to me about it too. So Kelly goes, great. Do you think you're a good friend to Shamia? She's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We talked already. Like, I'm not answering that question. She's like, you just asked us to ask you.

And here's the thing that bothers me with Shamia because in her confessional, she's like, when I see Portia telling them to like knock it off and not dig into our friendship, I'm glad. that she's defending our friendship. I was like, no, wait, Kelly's doing that by trying to get Porsche to answer some questions about your friendship in front of everybody. And you just gave Porsche credit for the bare minimum. Like, fuck that. Kelly, keep asking questions. Angela asked some questions.

Shemia, sit there and listen to Porsche and try to answer. Because she didn't really answer shit for you either, by the way, when you guys had your one-on-one. She was dismissive as shit until she was like, I don't want to deal with this anymore. And then she played sad, went to the bathroom and came. back and, like, begrudgingly moved the silverware before being like, all right, what do we do? All right, let's fix this. It's in such a weird position, too, because we know where they are currently.

We know that they're still somewhat on the Alts, and Shemia feels pretty sad about that. But we watch this, and it's almost like Shemia is happy to just move along. Like, hey, this is the best I'm going to get when it comes to Porsche. And Porsche is happy to stop talking about it. Like, hey, no, we had to sit down. Nothing got resolved in that conversation. You guys just both shared that you had emotions. When Shamia shared her emotions, Portia dismissed them.

When Portia shared her emotions, they came out of nowhere. And it's like, whoa, are you going through some shit that you're not talking about right now? Because that's what it seems like. And then we got no resolve. You guys just kind of hugged at the end of it and took your dinners to go. You couldn't even sit there and finish the rest of the dinner because you already had it boxed up. So nothing really happens there. So I think it's an okay moment.

And we don't know what Kelly and Shamia are talking about on the side, but Kelly seems to understand what's going on with everybody. else, which she's doing a great job this season, too. I think she's flying on the radar. She's great. I think she really fits into the group well. But she's right to ask, like, hey, what is going on with your friendship with Shemmaa?

What's the state of things right now? Because last we heard, it was weird. And Shemia felt a type of way about it. And we haven't really talked about it since. So, hey, do you mind sharing with the group? I think it's fair. I thought so, too. So I was bummed out when she doesn't answer.

And I was even more bummed out when Shemia is like, great, thanks. I was like, no, dude, what? No. But Kelly brings up the fact that Drew has an issue with everyone except for Cynthia and Drew's flabbergasted by the whole thing. And you at least get Portia to say, I didn't handle the dentist thing. Well, Drew says, thank you for apologizing. It's like, oh, shit, moving forward. All right.

Sorry for bringing up Black. How did you find that out? Dennis told me. Interesting. Interesting. Very interesting. So we're adding more layers to this whole thing. If it transforms into something else that we move on from, I'm cool with it.

If it just adds more to this current pot that we're stirring, I'm fucking over it. It could go either way. I really don't know which way it's going to go. I'm with you, though. I do hope that it goes a better route because we are pretty much over this. And it's very obvious what's going on. Porsche Press, Dennis, tried to figure out what was going on. Why are you filming with Drew?

Are you guys dating? Is there any romance involved? Dennis vehemently denied all of it. And not only that brought up the fact that she's actually flirting with black. And now that's where it comes out. So it just goes back to Dennis and we still don't really know. But again, we're six, seven weeks past all of this. We don't care now.

We just don't care because you guys aren't going to give us answers. But at the end of the day, they're able to move forward because the way that Drew moved was Portia's problem, understandably. So you should have gotten a text or a phone call from her. Drew says nothing inappropriate happened, but should have texted you. Dennis said that he got your blessing, even if she did, or even if Dennis did give her blessing, you still owe Porsche a text or a phone call. So they're able to at least, like, move forward. So shockingly, this whole dinner actually does go fairly well with this setup.

This is the first successful refresh, reset dinner we have ever seen since our 10-year-on-rosen shows, even with a fucking curveball from Britt out of nowhere, completely out of nowhere. This was the dumbest shit I've ever heard. It wasn't on our radar. Wasn't on anybody's radar. It wasn't on a radar. It goes to Fadra. Apollo and his wife were at my event.

I'm sorry. I'm not trying to start anything. Fadra being Fadier's like, it's not my husband. He's married. I'm good. We're good. we ain't got no problems is what she says what a swing and a miss what a fucking weird way to try to get involved because you know that you're phasing out i get like do you think she did that to

try to drum up something to try to get involved in trying to get some kind of like i i took it as like bowing down to the altar of fager that's what i took it as i don't interesting i honestly i think britt knows i think brit knows exactly what fager is and she's trying to get her on her side because she sees the writing on the wall she's like Oh, Fadra's here. There's only a couple of weeks left. I got to make a big move here. Maybe if I do this and show some respect to Fadra, she'll respond kindly.

And I could just tag up with her and then I'm good. That's how I took it for Brit. But any move that I feel like for Brit, it's always self-serving. It's never like in the best interest of the group. It's only just self-serving for Brit. So no matter what it is, I don't really care. I'm so over her. I don't give two shits, but taking what you said and just spinning it a little bit.

I think that all of those things are true, but instead of trying to get Fajra on her team, I think she sees an opportunity because she tried to have a beef with Kenya, got Kenya kicked off the show. She tried to have some shit with Angela, right? And now she's going after Fadra. She's trying to find somebody to have a successful feud with where she's actually getting to talk about, but she's swinging and missing. So maybe she sees Fadra, her ex-husband.

husband was at this thing, she can be like, ha ha, yeah, gotcha. Maybe, I don't know, but it was like, what the fuck, dude? Just shut up. Like, what are we doing? I got, like, the audible groan from the rest of the table when she started talking was like, I know, it's so funny. You can tell there was, I can't remember who it, somebody said something under their breath and you could tell Britt must have said something to one of them, like, oh, I hope

it's not a big deal that, you know, with Fager coming on the show, that I invited her ex-husband there and all this shit and like, whatever. you could tell that she had already spoken to somebody and they're like, Brit, shut up. As soon as she brought it up, like, enough. We don't want to hear it. She doesn't care. We don't care.

Move on with your life. So dumb. So dumb. Let's get to some questions. First one up here from Mad Walb underscore. Is Drew becoming more insufferable than Brit? Or is it just me? I think it's just you, Matt.

That's not. We are a Drew Stan podcast at this point. And we have nobody's, nobody's worse than Brit. So no. That's a really good point. That's a really good point. And, yeah,

people are going to say that we jumped ship because, uh, you guys try to tell us that it's just an unfortunate week that everyone ganged up on us about Drew and then like I could, it has nothing to do with that. We don't flip block because of comments. It just, we will change our narrative when we see things that are presented a different way.

We're very evidence based here. try to be certainly are um from coya baby who did drew who did drew piss off on production the drew hate and edit for is forced and exhausting i agree so much they like so much hate towards drew we just can't have it it's just bullshit it's absolute bullshit and we will not stand for it here anymore from mama to lill see do you think fager came in too late in the season actually yeah i I do. I think they should have brought her back. It's kind of stupid. You know, it was so late.

I don't know what the move is there. If you brought her back three episodes ago. Is there two episodes left? Like, you bring her on the trip and that's pretty much, is she going to be at the reunion the whole time, too? I don't know. No, I bet they bring her in for like the last half. Yeah.

But, yeah, I agree. But Mary had a little. Do we think Britt actually donated anything? Yeah, three boxes of tissues. A little bit of tissues. That's all we got from her. Oh, God. I think that's all we got.

Yeah, that's all we got for. for that one. But, yeah, dude, what a week? Oh, man. People are going to be so confused listening to this episode. They're like, are they doing a bit? Like, are they fucking with us? It's really not.

No. Like, it's just. But we both came to the realization at the same time on the same week. Because it made them like a sense. Like, after watching her sit down with Porsche, I'm like, all right, dude. Like, you start to shift focus. That's what happened. Give us time.

We usually get on the right side of history. Sometimes it takes us a minute. It seems like a coordinated effort. Like we sat down off screen as if we have so much time to discuss our fucking... We are both so ill for the last 48 hours that we have not discussed anything. The only thing we talked about was the fact that neither of us could finish watching a TV show yesterday because we were so sick. So, yeah. Maybe that's what did it.

The sickness changed our, warped our little minds. But we got to record Love Hotel now, so you got anything else? Nope. That's our show. Bro's got to go.
