Bros & Shows - Jax Taylor is Dangerous. (Part 2 of 2)(The Valley Full Recap)

Episode Date: April 24, 2025

Welcome back Bros! In the conclusion of our Valley recap, we get into the Jax of it all. Danny and Jason go over to Jax's to try and talk some sense in to him. Their approach was with kiddie gloves an...d was honestly disappointing to see how they went about it. Zack and his boyfriend Benji decide to move in together following a 2 month break where Benji wasn't sure of his visa status in the US. Britany takes Cruz over to Jax's house to talk and it goes horribly. It's a first hand look into what she has been dealing with for years. Cruz's reaction to Jax says it all. Watching him berate her was difficult to see. She holds her own and calls him out for his cocaine addiction as he packs up for a 'treatment center'. In our eyes Jax is irredeemable at this point. Sober or not, he does not deserve sympathy or empathy for his behavior over such a long period of time. Good for Britany for stepping up to him but we hope Bravo takes the necessary steps to ensure she is protected from that maniac. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Starting point is 00:00:50 The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox is now streaming only on Disney Plus. my bros and shows. Brows and shows. Brows and shows. I got to have me. My Brose and shows. Welcome back, Bros. to the second part of our Valley Recap.
Starting point is 00:01:12 I am your co-host, Steel Russell, joined as always by Part 2 Magoo. What's up, dude? You ready to finish this? Not a whole lot. Let's get this bad boy right underway. No fooling around. No tomfoolery here. We're going to jump right into.
Starting point is 00:01:27 No for play. I got it. You said it. We're good. We're going to, we're going to start. Nope. Jacks. Don't. The Jacks, Danny and Jason. Okay. We're at Jackson's house and Danny and Jason go over to check on him. So now this is two and three people checking on him after he said, nobody checks on me. What about me? And they're checking on because we're concerned. We heard about the cruise thing, but you do have the ability to get them back. And Jacks goes to a conference. fashion he's like this feels like an intervention never thought i'd have one of these but this feels like an intervention this should have been an intervention this should have gone way differently than it has gone and this is such a bad mark on the guys on this cast and i said it last year at big bear and i'm going to double down now because the way that they handled this whole entire situation is fucking insane and they should be embarrassed watching this go down and watching the scene with jackson
Starting point is 00:02:27 Brittany having not done anything about it because even in this scene there's so much like hey man you're a great guy you just turn a tough spot and like we love you and you got to go get it figured out for your kid you got to do right no he's had that time he's had the time for the like the sweetness and then trying to get him through it this could have ended so much worse this could have ended up with brittany in the fucking hospital and you guys are going in there with kitty gloves on to tell him that it's going to be okay go in there and grab him by the ear and say hey dickhead you're not allowed to see your kid you hit your wife with a fucking table that bar stool over there's broken because you can't control your rage because you're in a coke
Starting point is 00:03:06 induced bender right now get your shit get the fuck out we're taking into a treatment center right now or you're never going to see us again they handled this so badly and had this been the first incident fine but this has been going on for so long and clearly they've been putting blinders on to how bad this whole thing actually is because the more that comes out from from the stories the more that comes out from Brittany, the more that comes out about how much they knew about this entire situation, they handled this so bad. And they put Britney at more risk by not dropping the hammer on somebody like Jacks,
Starting point is 00:03:39 somebody like Jacks. This was whatever the opposite of the perfect storm is, this was what it was. This was producers. This was you're on a TV show. This was their fucking pussies and they're scared of him. Like that's absolutely what it came off. to as me or for me anyway because they walked in there with the intent of well we we have to show
Starting point is 00:04:03 face we have to go see jacks like we have to go film with them we have to go do this let's just go sit and they we get that little clip where they're like it's getting bad we need to get in there and go talk to them it's like all right get in there and go talk to him go intervention go full intervention rip them out of the house call fucking the whatever you have to call CPS honestly at that point because he's unsafe you got to get him the hell out of there do something instead they're like, we've got to go over there. Let's go see how he is. You're not seeing how he is.
Starting point is 00:04:32 I know that's what Jacks wants to keep saying. And the best part is he's still saying that nobody's checking on him. You guys were actually there to check on him. And that's not how you should have been there. You should have been there with a strong arm, pull him the hell out of there, like you said. But they're afraid of him. They are so scared of Jacks. Why?
Starting point is 00:04:48 And they're scared. And look, I like Jason and Danny. They are by far the worst choice for this. Dode is way better. Doty didn't go in there with kid gloves. Doty told him, you're hitting fucking rock bottom. We saw Schwartz last week, who's a very, very, very nice guy and super soft. And we called him out for being super soft over the years.
Starting point is 00:05:06 He did a better job. These are the worst two candidates to go over there and try to talk some sense into him and try to figure out what the hell is going on. Why? Like, this scene just pissed me off. This wasn't like a, oh, this is kind of funny. Oh, this is just wrong. No, it was just annoying. It was useless.
Starting point is 00:05:22 It just proved no point. It proved absolutely no point. And then Jacks get a, he like a phone call from what sounded like chat GPT's voice automated thing. It was. No, no, it was an AI. So it was. Bravo doesn't have the actual audio because it. So they plugged in AI?
Starting point is 00:05:39 Yeah. So what happened. Yeah, obviously they don't have the audio from the other side. But like anybody listening to that goes, well, that has to be the worst receptionist or whatever the fuck he said he was. He was like some sort of actual. I'm sorry to hear that, man. What's going on? I'm sorry to hear that, man. What's going on? Let's talk money right away. No one. No one is just going to come right out and be like, well, it's going to be $30,000 for the 30 days. And we recommend you stay for the full 30 days because it's two times better than two different 15 day stints. Like none of it made any sense.
Starting point is 00:06:11 That part's everybody online. No, that part's definitely true. But the way the cadence by which it was talking, it was AI. Bravo just plug that in there because they don't have the actual audio. And I'm like, then use a voice actor. what are we doing or don't just fucking ask jackson a confessional afterwards and say what was that phone call like and let him explain it to us it's going to be a lie but it's going to be better than that or do it like the show intervention like bang do and hit the black screen it's like jacks talks to reception is thirty thousand dollars for 30 days that would actually work that would have been much better yeah but yeah the handling of this sucked danny and jason are part of the problem. They're both enabling this kind of behavior because they're not cracking down on it. They're minimizing what actually happened within that house. They're minimizing
Starting point is 00:06:58 Britney's feelings, what Britney has gone through. And they're siding with Jacks. That's all I can see here is like, you're a great human. You're a great man. When? When has he ever been either of those things? Because I've seen him on TV for over a decade and not once have I seen a redeemable quality in this man. So for them to just do this was just fucking embarrassing. It's embarrassing and they should be embarrassed watching it back and their wives should look at this. and go, wow, I hope I don't get into any shit because if this is you're going to like how you're going to handle it, not shit like that. I just mean, in general.
Starting point is 00:07:28 I mean, you think Janet's going to look at it. The reason why Jason is the way that he is is because of Janet. That's fair. That's fair. Danny's too nice of a person and he's never gone through a situation like this before. So he shouldn't be in that situation. Jason is the way that he is because of Janet. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:07:43 But in regards to the treatment center, yes, I will say 30 days is like the minimum that that you should go in because it's the most effective. amount of time that or longer 60 90 whatever but like the bottom line is yeah dude you needed help 10 years ago and now you've exhausted any kind of sympathy you're going to get from people and I'll just talk about it now I was going to wait until the very end when he gets into it with brittany but like the nuances of this thing from a recovery standpoint somebody like me who is in recovery and is also very sympathetic to people going through addiction and I understand that a lot of us are good people going through a really hard thing.
Starting point is 00:08:24 There's another type of addict, as there are just with people in general, that are shitty people that are also an addict. That's what we have here. I will not waste any time worrying about whether or not Jacks gets over this hump. From a recovery standpoint, I hope he does. I hope that he finds the help he needs.
Starting point is 00:08:42 I hope that he does for Cruz's sake, for Britney's sake, has to coexist with this idiot for the rest of her life. That's what I hope, but not for him. He's exhausted my sympathy. He's exhausted anybody's sympathy because of his behavior, because of the lack of accountability, because of the situation that his addiction and mental health has gotten to, that he's putting his son at risk, he's putting his wife at risk, he's putting people around him at risk.
Starting point is 00:09:05 So he doesn't get to play the card of, woe is me, and go on five podcasts now the season's airing, talking about his Coke problem. Because your Coke problem wouldn't have even come up if Brittany didn't out you on the screen. but Brittany outed you with the Coke thing and now you want to address it because now you want to save face as you've always done your entire life you are not a good person I hope you get through the addiction part of this thing and get on the other side just as a human being but as you jacks taylor I don't give a fuck I really don't care what happens to him as far as what he does next I want him to get clean and sober for the sake of his kid as far as what his life turns into
Starting point is 00:09:41 you've exhausted that I don't give a fuck and anybody out there that doesn't give a fuck you have the right to that you don't have to bend the knee to people because they go through this if they are at their core a bad fucking person he has proven that and he put his fucking kid at risk get him the fuck out of here if he's not on the screen he's great for reality tv nobody can deny that that is not a reason to put him back up on this fucking screen if he doesn't take this shit seriously and stop copying to i'm the victim i'm getting help shut the fuck up do it off the screen if you're serious about this whole fucking thing if you're really in recovery do what we all do shut the fuck up put your head down and put the fucking work in don't give me a sob story after i watch
Starting point is 00:10:24 your wife sobbing not safe in your own house and then want to play this card oh it's so hard being me oh blah blah blah go fuck yourself that's all good well said thanks way to get it off your chest hey why don't we take a little ad break here yeah i think i need it I need it I need I need to clear the air. I need to woo saw it out. Yeah, why not? I think that's the best way to do this. And boy do I have an ad for you guys
Starting point is 00:10:52 because our friends over at Prolon are helping us out with their five-day fasting, mimicking diet that works at a cellular level to rejuvenate you from the inside out, proving real results.

Nope, Prolon's got you covered because they have all the things that keep you in a fasting state, which triggers cellular rejuvenation and renewal. And it's great. Honestly, we've tried it out. Steel actually personally can endorse this as well because we both went through it. That five-day program was awesome. It was the reset that I needed, and it was so easy to do. And every time that I go into the fasting idea, it's so daunting.
Starting point is 00:11:53 It's like, ugh, what am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do here? What? I like it so much. Dev and I are starting another one next week, a pro long five-day fast.

I feel better now.
Starting point is 00:12:46 You got a good vent sesh. Let's lock back in because we move on to Brittany, Michelle, and Janet. Then Brittany found a thong at Jackson's house on the sink with a baby wipe on it. It was gross. It was gross. I don't like any of that. Do you want another reason that he gave in the after show? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Yeah, I know you did. By the way, hold on. First off, have you watched the after show for the veil yet? No, it sounds like I need. too. So you know how the aftershows typically go. They kind of break them off into groups depending on who likes who and who doesn't like who or whatever it might be.
Starting point is 00:13:20 The Valley has a full ensemble. The groups are Jacks, Jesse, and Tom Schwartz. Oh, God. Then you get. Yeah, I know. Then it's Danny and, um, God. Jason. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Uh, Jason is with. Oh, no, I had this all down. No, damn it. Janet's with Michelle and someone else. Damn it. I had this whole thing down. This is riveting stuff. This is awful stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Anyway, back to what Jacks' reasoning was. So him and Schwartz went on a bar crawl. And as you know, oh, thank you, by the way. Jason is with Brock. That's why I couldn't remember it. Why? It's the best. It's the best.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Brittany's with Lala. It's just the whole thing. It's just a nightmare. What a shit show. Jack's reasoning was that him and Schwartz went on a bar crawl. And as Jack says, you know those things. They're like 99.99% all women. Apparently a quote unquote fan at first threw her underwear at him,
Starting point is 00:14:31 which he then kept and put in his fanny pack. Then later it turned into she handed them off. Then Jesse pointed out very quickly, oh yeah, that's a believable story, which it's not. So that was his reasoning. He had underwear that a fan had given him while he was on a bar crawl that he then put on his sink because he forgot it was in his wallet. With the baby wipe. Yep. Yep.
Starting point is 00:14:52 That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard. That's so stupid. What an idiot. That's case in point because he's quote unquote out of treatment now and he's still lying about shit like that. So he's not fucking changed, whatever. Like I said, these three are chatting and they start talking about Jesse and the scheduling and the girl that's dating Jesse. she sent Michelle a text i don't fuck with this either i don't fuck with a ron speaking up about the kid i do not fuck with the new girlfriend texting michel threatening to sue her because she doesn't want
Starting point is 00:15:28 to be talked about on screen and has also apparently sent cease and desist letters to the majority of the cast i think she threatened to do it now they are right in the sense of why are you dating a guy who's on a reality tv show if this is how you're going to handle it. I think what came about was probably right after that Sheena conversation that we saw where Michelle and Jesse were kind of hashing out the schedule. Jesse obviously called her and said, hey, what the fuck's going on? I just got this call.
Starting point is 00:15:56 I was just talking to Michelle about it. Apparently you were telling people at a party. That's probably what prompted this whole thing, I'm sure, because it's like, hey, that was on camera. That's going to look real bad. So here we go. Not great. Not a great look.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Really not the best. It's a terrible. look it doesn't make any sense like why i i just don't know why she would text her why you texting by the way do you not think that they're going to talk about this like right it's going to make you look even worse the fact that you did that at all is going to open you up to catching all kinds of shit you shouldn't have poked the bear i don't i don't get why you would do that that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me at all as melissa points out david haselhoff doesn't want his business out there So that's why she's doing it.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Okay. Good point, Melissa. Well done. I didn't think of it that way. But Michelle starts crying, you know, and it is a reminder that she's going through this as well. And, you know, I'm sure Jesse's not that easy to deal with, even if people are siding with him from what it seems like. But Janet's having a birthday party. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:17:01 At Dave and Busters. What? I felt a little stank in your voice there, siding with Jesse. But you were team, Jesse. I'm leaning. but I'm going to try to stay Switzerland this whole because I just have a feeling he's going to do something along the way that I will not be able to stand by
Starting point is 00:17:21 and I don't want to put myself in a side. I know you will. So that's why I'm maintaining neutrality as much as I possibly can. So both of us aren't idiots. Okay. We're on the right side of history, yeah. Who's we? The general we, the Jesse we?
Starting point is 00:17:37 The royal way. It is now. The Royal Jesse we. Well, let's keep going to a happy scene before a very not happy scene. We get to Zach and Benji, and it's been two months apart. It's been a very tough two months apart. Zach's like, look, I've given you space, but I love you. I love this guy.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I need to be with him. He's never felt this way about anybody else before. And this is D-Day, Decision Day, not deported Day. I love their banter, too. like he's like he's like I'm just laughing at your wig they're funny talking about the the chito what was it the chito chapel with an Elvis and Elvis yeah to match Zach's skin because he I like this a lot because I feel like we didn't aside from the you know the bullshit that Zach was involved in last year with Janet we didn't get a lot from Zach so no we didn't get a line Zach I want to see
Starting point is 00:18:34 this and obviously this is real this is him in a relationship this is him being vulnerable even though he said he never cried. I get the sense that he cries a lot more than he says he does. But here we go with a good little storyline. This is a little feel good, a little happy moment. I like it. And we didn't get enough. And I know that there's a huge cast. And obviously, Jacks is going to take a lot of that. But we do need to mix in these other people because they're all enjoyable. I want to see more from Jasmine. I want to see more from Zach. So hopefully that continues. I agree. And I like Zach a lot. I think he's a great addition to the show. I like Benji a lot. So this is... Can you see him at the Southern Charm premiere party?
Starting point is 00:19:08 when Zach didn't you see him at the southern charm premiere party Zach who what from the show from the valley oh yeah remember he was hanging out with your sister and yeah I remember I was fine with it yeah hey yeah I met both of them they're great but
Starting point is 00:19:28 move on to uh well before we move on summer move in thumbs up Benji's moving in yay good for you they're still together by the They are still together because I saw them at the Southern Char and premiere. Oh. And they were still together.

Starting point is 00:21:08 Brittany and Jacks. Let's finish this up. Just prolonging. I know, dude. This is tough. Look, I think that we can all agree. Anybody that watched this episode, we all watch this with anxiety, pit in your stomach. It was tough to watch because you're really getting a peek behind.
Starting point is 00:21:27 This is a fourth wall break without an actual fourth wall break. This is a peak behind the curtain of what Brittany has gone through dealing with this fucking lunatic. So we walk into the house. The cameras are covered up by playing cards and why are you smirking? I was laughing at the chat. Everybody thought that you glitched out again. Oh, okay. Ah, no.
Starting point is 00:21:52 I'm just prolonging it more. Honestly, I'm pretty happy that you got your ran out before we got to this scene because I don't know if I'd be able to handle talking about this scene and then you have things to go on a rant. No, that's kind of why I did it so we can just get through this. like all right let's let's do it let's do we can do this like i said the cameras are covered the pictures are turned around there's rotten fruit there's a cup in the fridge with lipstick on the rim like it's just a sad sad scene of somebody not taking care of anything and as she's in the kitchen
Starting point is 00:22:23 trying to find something for cruise gets them a bottle jacks comes home on the golf cart nothing speaks louder than how crews reacted to jacks walking into that house. Well, you can put it right up against when he saw Zach earlier in the episode, ran over to Zach, hung out with Zach. He was playful. He was happy. Not very happy, obviously, when Jack's pulled up.
Starting point is 00:22:48 The only part about this that was funny was they should have given us a trigger warning for Page's picture. Jesus Christ, lady. You fucking kidding me? My TV was going to break. It was so top of you. I thought the whole fucking TV was just going to fall. but that's the funniest part is like he wants to get mad about this dude Julian it's like
Starting point is 00:23:10 you're parading around town with only fans models like are you fucking dumb like when he talks like do you hear yourself you're getting mad at her for hooking up with a guy that you've known for a year while she's single meanwhile you are gallivanting around with any any girl you can find probably and banging whatever comes into your house and you're going to get on her about your fucking people in her house you don't even have the the decency to go to page's house which he then says yeah huh went there three days ago sick bro sick burn you fucking god or dude you banged her more than once nice what do you want a fucking cookie you idiot it's so stupid but like again watching cruise react that way was gut wrenching the fact that brittany
Starting point is 00:24:00 has to say, don't kiss him on the face because you probably haven't showered since your fucking gross night last night, which is 100% true, by the way. His, it's just, oh, man, it's so hard. It's hard. I felt so bad for Brittany. He's like, I'm not talking to you. You destroyed my life. Like, no, dude, you did that yourself.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Like, literally. This is, this is when it got to like, and obviously, you know, a little bit later, it gets to the point of like, Brittany, you got to go. You got to get out of the house. I got out of the house. There and shit, but, like, it's, it's escalating. and you're, I don't want to say you're feeding into it, but like, you're still doing it. You're still, like, getting involved.
Starting point is 00:24:36 And it's not worth it at that point because you're riling him up to the point that it could get a lot worse. You just have to go at that point. But early on, it's like in a way, early on with all of this when you see that, and if you've ever, and obviously you have, but if you ever been around like an addict or somebody who's going through something like that, they're always going to put the blame on you. They're always going to turn it around to make themselves feel better or just pass the buck or whatever it might be, that's when it's fringing on that possibility of like,
Starting point is 00:25:04 oh, we shouldn't be seeing this. This is not. I know it's Jacks. And that's why we all have conflicted feelings because it's all like, wow, we've seen this coming. Who didn't see this one coming? I don't think there's going to be many people out there and a lot of, you know, like we like to have a good time in this podcast.
Starting point is 00:25:18 I don't think there's going to be a lot of content creators out there having fun with this. This is just like a, I know it's Jack's still. We shouldn't be watching this. No. And it just shows you. what she's really been dealing with it shows you what she's been going through and there's people online and it's fucking astounding it's astounding to me that people can say she knew what she was
Starting point is 00:25:41 getting into when she married him fuck you anyone that says that she didn't know this is what she signed up for she knew that she was marrying an eccentric moron fine she knew that he had his ticks and was the way that he is nobody not one person gets married to somebody that they assume is going to be abusive to them. That's a dumb statement. And it's dumb for people to put that on Brittany. It's the same thing that Jacks is doing. Jacks is literally putting this entire thing on her.
Starting point is 00:26:10 This is your fault that I'm this way. You drove me to this. Fuck you. You're gross because you're banging Julian. Like, how's Julian doing? All these gross things that he's saying to it's like, you're getting a peek behind the veil.
Starting point is 00:26:21 And she's breaking down saying, like, who are you? I don't recognize this person. I don't know who you are. And he's like, I asked you to check in on me. And she's like, you scared me and you hurt me. That line crushed me. You scared me and you hurt me was the most real line out of her mouth. And I was like, fuck, man.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Like, I know that this is a show. I know that this is part of it. Part of me is like, we don't need to see this. The other part of me is like, no, you know what? Maybe this will get people to finally snap out of this Jack's thing. Maybe this will get people to be like, wow. Footage for any sort of court hearing that Brickman and Jacks can have. show this but then the caveat to that's like Cruz gets to see this one day yeah your son's
Starting point is 00:27:05 going to watch this one day and you're yeah there is no good spin on any of it there is no positive spin on any of this it's that's why it's just that's why it was so tough to watch for pretty much anybody watching it and yeah and I'm glad incredibly difficult to discuss it really is and like I'm really glad that you gave an ultimatum it's like if you don't stay for 30 days I'm getting full custody I'm getting restraining order you're going to lose your job go get help and the fact that she's still doing this out of a place of love as she says she's like you're going to realize one day that I'm the only one that cares that I'm trying to the only reason he still has a chance at a relationship with his son is because Brittany still wants that
Starting point is 00:27:46 to be an option yeah there's a lot of parents out here that would see this or go through this and be like nope we're done you're not going to see your kid I'm getting full custody you can have monitored visits once a month. And she would be well within her right to do that. She's the only person that's trying to lobby for him still having some kind of relationship with him. But as this is going on, Jason arrives to pick him up. And, you know, the point that she makes, which is a really good point, as Jacks is walking
Starting point is 00:28:17 down the stairs, I mean, the line of the century is calling him out for doing Coke. You're addicted to Coke. And of course, he's like, oh, you've never done it? she's like yeah dude but give me a drug test right now i'll pass will you i'm like fuck yeah and he just he's like i'm not doing this anymore i'm not doing this anymore like stomps off to go pack the weirdest assortment he packed eight pairs of shoes and fucking push up bars sick bro jason comes to pick him up and you know she's like i just wanted to be honest and that's the biggest takeaway for me of this whole thing is jacks is still not saying what's actually going on he's
Starting point is 00:28:53 still saying it's depression it's anxiety it's this it's that it is those things but it's also cocaine that's the root it's cocaine and all of these things you're still trying to hide behind that's not a problem that's not and like i will chalk that one up to him being in the throes of addiction because no one claims they have an issue until you finally figured the fuck out but as we're watching this whole thing i'm like you're fucked you're not going to win this anyway because you're not doing it for the right reasons it's for everybody else it's for everybody else not you you address it once i know it's supposed to be for me but i'm doing it for this it's not going to work then because you're not doing it for you you don't want to get
Starting point is 00:29:32 better you want people to think that you're trying so you can go back to your old ways and say did my best that's what i get from this and i don't even want to talk about the jason jack's car ride because it was dumb but yeah oh it's it's sick the fact that even got in the car was like oh okay yeah and but like here's the line that people should just hold on to it's so much of a relief that he's going to be there for 30 days that she doesn't have to worry that she gets 30 days without being like where's jacks how is jacks he going to walk in the door cruise doesn't have to see him like this the relief that you get from somebody going to a treatment center is the most double-edged sword ever and i watching her go through
Starting point is 00:30:22 this whole thing. People might have issues with Brittany. You may not love her. You may think that she's not the best friend to people. I don't really care. The fact that she's been going through all of this while people on this cast have stood by and not stepped in earlier is astounding. It's disgusting. And I just hope that her and crews are able to come out of this in a positive fashion, however long that may take, because it's going to take a long time to heal from this shit. Yep. I mean, I know this isn't about me but we do get a little bit of a break from Jacks in this show which is nice
Starting point is 00:30:58 I know he wasn't there for the full 30 days but yeah it'll be nice I mean obviously we're still going to have next week which will be the fallout can you believe in this happened but again this is what makes the show so good is there's enough else going on where I don't think that this is going to bog anybody down and obviously
Starting point is 00:31:16 it's Jack so you kind of expect the type of behavior that you're going to get and the fact that he's going to a treatment center I feel like a lot of the conversations they'll be like, oh, hopefully it works this time and then they'll move on to whatever the hell else is going on. So it won't be too much of a step back from the rest of the season.
Starting point is 00:31:32 So look, the show is going to be good without Jacks for as long as we don't have them. It'll probably be an episode and a half, to be honest. He doesn't stay the whole time. No, he stays, what, 11 days or something? I think so. 12 days. He doesn't care. He didn't give a fun.

Starting point is 00:34:51 from candy farto do you think that brittany will let herself be talked into living with jacks again i she we have seen her be easily manipulated by friends and jacks but i don't think so i don't think that i don't think it will have foot in the ground here yeah and i think enough people around her and obviously the rest of the world know what's going on so i don't i think there's too much accountability out there for her to do it too much out in the open no yeah do you see bravo firing jacks probably not no if they didn't after this no i don't think so which is which sucks by the way because like is entertainment worth watching things like this no it's not rachel breeden do you think brittany will be on nia's side when janet goes after nia and danny i god i hope so no not a not a chance

But like it's, it's been tough because I can't even like really pick a team in the NHL that I want to be a fan of because it's kind of, it's sort of like basketball at this point.

On the infamous America podcast, you'll hear the true stories of the Salem Witch Trials and the escape attempts from Alcatraz, of bank robbers like John Dillinger and Pretty Boy Floyd, of killers like Lizzie Borden and Charles Starkweather, of mysteries like the Black Dahlia and D.B. Cooper, and of events that inspired movies like Goodfellas, Killers of the Flower Moon, Zodiac, Eight Men Out, and many more. I'm Chris Wimmer. Join me as we criss-crossed the country from the Miami Drug Wars and Dixie Mafia in the South, to mobsters in Chicago and New York, to arsonists, kidnappers, and killers in California, to unsolved mysteries in the heartland and in remote corners of Alaska.

You might know me from The League, Veep, or my non-eligible for Academy Award role in Twisters. We love movies, and we come at them from different perspectives. Yeah, like Amy thinks that, you know, Joe Pesci was miscast in Goodfellas, and I don't.
