Bros & Shows - Tamra Gonna Tamra (RHOCs17ep07, Crappie Lakes01ep03)

Episode Date: July 21, 2023

What's up Bro's?! We got back to back episodes for yous this week. In todays episode, we get back to RHOC for one of our least favorite episodes in a long time. The ladies are headed to Nobu for dinne...r and there is a lot of tension throughout the group. Shannon is going through it as she faces three children headed off to school shortly. John wants her to be able to relax and enjoy their time together but she has a lot of irons in the fire and is having a tough time juggling everything. We do get to see a softer side of Shannon as she opens up about what she's going through. Taylor and Heather have the chance to sit down and "hash things out" but Heather doesn't actually apologize and continues to place all the blame on Taylor. Emily is calling out both Heather and Tamra for their continued red flags as both of them refuse to change or look in the mirror. But the real "star" of this episode is Tamra, who continues to do way too much and force the drama with Jenn, her friend... She continues to drag Ryan and Jenn's relationship to the forefront and when she's met with any pushback she throws a tantrum, throws a napkin, and reminds us all why she got the boot from RHOC to begin with. Rough showing for the ladies of OC in our opinion... Then we're saved by Crappie Lake as Sonja and Luann continue to embrace the country lifestyle. Things are getting hot between Sonja and Billy Richard after an eventful night in the motel. The ladies set their sites on building a park, going mudding, and Sonja reminds us why she's iconic with some fantastic one liners. This show continues to be a welcomed delight for us as it remains easy to watch, and a whole lotta fun! This episode is brought to you by Birddogs.

Starting point is 00:00:45 Hi, I'm Karma. And yes, I am a bitch. Brov Bros. Good afternoon, 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. Steel Russell, joined us. always by the one and only shooter magooter what's up dude uh officially one week from today we
Starting point is 00:01:05 will be done our live show that's kind of sad it is well it is it it is it i mean there's a lot of you're sweet yeah there's a lot of ramping up going on right now um obviously i mean we're we're recording two days in a row so you can't expect me to have a full blown cold opening ready to roll like barbenheimer that's gold yeah barbenheimer was a great cold open i need to put something out uh so the way that the contest is going to work i am going to remind everybody because this is a really good double cold opening because I want to reiterate, you have the chance to go on a Barbenheimer date with Shooter Magouter that is paid for by yours truly.
Starting point is 00:01:40 I'm sponsoring the evening. You have to, so if you go to our Instagram, there's our email on there. So in the subject of your email, it has to say, Barbenheimer application. You have to say, one, why you should be picked. two, why you want to see both movies in the same day, and three, what gift you are going to bring Shooter? I get a gift out of this?
Starting point is 00:02:05 It doesn't have to be more than $5. You don't have to spend a lot, but you have to bring him a gift. That's fair. Now, this could be a bro date, it could be a real date, whatever you want to be. It could be anybody can apply. I am going to select three candidates, and I'm going to let Shooter select out of those three. If you are not selected, it is not because you are not worthy. You all should be able to go on this date with Shooter,
Starting point is 00:02:28 but we have to select the winner somehow, so we're going to break it down. If you want to apply, go to our Instagram, click the little email button on there, and email us your application for Barbernaimer, sponsored by Steel. The narrowing down is going to be hilarious. I know.
Starting point is 00:02:42 I'm actually really, we might have to do it on like a live. You're giving yourself so much work. Well, it's worth it because I want to read the applications. I also think it would be a funny live. Yeah. I go on and I just read out some app. I won't read names.
Starting point is 00:02:54 I'll just read your application. application and I'll rate it from like a one out of the one to ten. I don't be mean. No one's going to get like a one. Everyone's going to get a good, unless you're a dick. I think this is one of the best ideas that you've ever come up with, although I think I kind of came up with. Yeah, I was going to say, I don't think I really came up with this one.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I was just talking about how much I'd love to do that. But it's a great opportunity, one, to meet a fan. Yeah. Two, it could just be a lovely day. I mean, I'm looking forward to it. And that's one of those things that, you know, we're going to sit through about five and a half, six hours of movies. so what better to get to know somebody
Starting point is 00:03:28 than what kind of snacks you get at the movies? Yeah, sitting there in silence for six hours. Sometimes I fall asleep at movies. I don't think I'm going to fall asleep during this one, but yeah, I mean. Well, Oppenheimer is sitting in 96% on Rotten Tomatoes and Barbie is at an 88, I believe. I was 91 yesterday.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I may have dipped. Both of them are going to change back and forth, honestly, over the next couple of weeks, but... Arguably certified, fresh almost. I think it needs another week or two to be certified, but it's going to be. be a great day for whoever wins, and I'm so excited. It's going to be
Starting point is 00:03:59 a blast. But other than that, I've had a crazy day. Usually my mom texts me because she believes in a lot of astrology stuff, and she'll be like, hey, Mercury's in retrograde, so like, just a heads up. I wish... Not know that about your mom. Oh, yeah. She's a big Mercury in
Starting point is 00:04:15 retrograde. Like, she always blames Mercury for when shit goes wrong, and she's on to something because when stuff's going wrong, a lot of the time Mercury does tend to be in retrograde. I'm not saying I believe in it but there are some correlations mercury i don't believe is in retrograde right now and i needed it to be because it's perpetually in retrograde i'm just flustered today man like you walked in i'm stomping around i'm just like little things keep going wrong i had no idea that if you plug your
Starting point is 00:04:39 ipad into your computer and your computer has less battery the ipad will charge your computer which is it's got a dumbest thing i've ever heard yeah my iPad died and my computer at two percent so like great phones too like i have no idea i put my iphone into a macbook does that do the same I didn't think it was a thing. That should not be a thing. So I'm... Your jobs didn't die for this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:00 But anyway, let's get into our Rosenthorn, and then we got one thing on the news just because it's going to take us right into O.C. My rose comes from, these bitches love Bravo on Instagram. And it was in response to us raving about the new Roney when we posted it last night. He said, steals literally all of us right now. Shooter is us when we had to sit through that terrible time of Bravo. trying to bring back an entire new cast of VPR. Thanks for bringing us all back down to Earth Shooter. Shooter's good for that.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I commented back on somebody, I think it might have been that one, where I said, Shooter is the pragmatic one. He will take a much more, like, reasonable approach to things. I'm much more the Shoot for the Stars kind of guy. I'm like, oh, it's going to be amazing. Like, I always just assume the best until I'm proven otherwise. What I'm here for.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Yeah, he brings me back down to Earth. There checks and balances around you. Well, that was the funny thing I feel like because people have such short attention span. obviously, you know, for the TikTok video, the TikTok video was like two and a half minutes long. And it was you raving about it in the beginning. And people were so quick to comment and knock you down and freak out.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Obviously, there's idiots out there that are not even going to watch it. Nope. Because they're just so stuck in the past. Whatever. Go ahead, do that. I don't care, but don't comment on our video when we're enjoying a new show. And they didn't get to the point where I told you to slow your role a little bit. So that's fair.
Starting point is 00:06:19 But the people who stuck through it and watched it, they understand. We've got a good balance here. checks and balance has never hurt nobody. Nope. My thorn is, also from Instagram, also in response to the Rony video. This person said, you should be on notice.
Starting point is 00:06:35 You were spot on a lot when you first started, but you were wrong over and over lately. Yeah, it was cute, two guys who knew Bravo, but you're trying too hard, looking like regular guys again. Unreal. I love the people to think we get paid by Bravo. I fucking wish.
Starting point is 00:06:50 And so many people in that one. Honestly, if Bravo would pay us, to do these things if the Gorgas would pay us if people in Potoma, I don't care
Starting point is 00:06:58 who's paying us you guys could just start paying us we'll say whatever we'll say anything we don't care you'll know trust me
Starting point is 00:07:04 you'll know for getting bribed and we're fine by that you will definitely know if we actually get paid and we'll probably announce it
Starting point is 00:07:12 like we're not bigger we've said this from day one we're not bigger than bribes we just haven't been offered any yet here's the hot take brought to you by
Starting point is 00:07:19 Melissa and Joe Gorga yeah we will make it a segment Like, you will know immediately. We will not hide anything. No, we don't get fucking paid by these things. But it's just ridiculous. We watch a show.
Starting point is 00:07:29 We like a show. And now we're being told that we're trying too hard. I don't think. It's crazy. Especially in, like, what's going on now? I mean, the funny thing is, obviously, steals in mood. And he told me a couple of reasons why he's in the mood. One of those reasons is because he watched OC and hated OC.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Oh, dude. And between the comments and that, like, that's so funny to me. Yeah. So we're not trying hard. There's just not a lot. Like, Crappy Lake is good. It's 20 minutes long. It's a nice, quick watch.
Starting point is 00:07:56 But as far as Bravo goes across the board, it's not really a lot of fun right now. OC sucks at this point. Hold on. Like, yesterday we did the power rankings, like, I have been enjoying most of the shows. Like, that's the thing. But, like, OC, when I checked back into this one, and it started because of Tamara's stupid ozempic comment that she made in response to Jen on Watch What Happens Live, which is so belittling, and it's so weird that she takes shots of people's appearances still, because
Starting point is 00:08:20 it's outdated. It's dumb. She doesn't even own a gym anymore. You can't even be a gym person. It's just dumb, dude. Leave that part out of it. Emily has also been on Ozempic. She's been open about it. She said she started a weight loss journey with Ozempic. Has since been in the gym consistently. She looks fantastic. By you taking a shot
Starting point is 00:08:36 at Jen with Ozempic? You're taking a shot at Emily. Look, do I condone Ozempic use? Like, it's such a weird line, right? Like, I'm not here to say and I'm not going to comment on who does what with their body. It's not our fucking job to say so. It's definitely not Tamara a judge's job to fucking say so. It's just stupid. It's asinine. Grow up. That was my biggest
Starting point is 00:08:56 issue, I think, was watching Tamara. And maybe this also, you know, this probably stems all the way back to the, uh, the interview we did with like hot topics because they got us all heated about two T's in the pod. Now I've been stuck on it. And then, of course, when I'm already thinking about two T's in a pod and I don't like that podcast, then Tamara does some stupid shit and reminds me why I don't like that podcast. It's a good point. Yeah, that's a very good point. My thorn. is these two are side by side, which I thought was really funny. One's a five-star review and one's a one-star review.
Starting point is 00:09:27 And the five-star review is honestly one of the best reviews, I think we've ever gotten. It's one-the-more-the-more-touching ones. And the other one is my favorite one-star review I've ever gotten. So I'm going to start with the one-star. And it just is titled, Steel is so rude. The banter is just not funny as it is mean and aggressive while shooter acquiesces. Thanks, dude. There are too many enjoyable fun, easygoing bravo,
Starting point is 00:09:50 podcast to bother with this one. It's so good. I certainly never fucking acquiesced you. And like that's the best part is they subtly took a dig at you as well. Like that's backhand a shooter and steal so rude.
Starting point is 00:10:04 It was a two. Shooter's a timid little bitch. Yeah. Shooter's a little pansy and steals rude. But it was next to this one. This one meant a lot to me. And actually I got a little choked up when I read it the first time. Not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:10:18 But this is from Jessica G. 511. and the title is Through Good Times and Bad. I started listening last September when I was on my honeymoon, the best time of my life. Since then, Bravo Bros had become the only Bravo-related show that I'll play with my husband, not because he's necessarily a sports guy. He just thinks the banter between Steel and Shooter McGavin is so funny. This past week, my beloved grandmother died, and as I sat on the beach crying, I listened to this podcast on my headphones.
Starting point is 00:10:42 It brought laughs to the tears, and I think the best part about content creators who give us so much of their time. Y'all might not know what it is as you, your recording, but you walk with us in the best of times and the worst. Thanks for traveling with me. That was beautiful. It is. That's the goal. Do you think her honeymoon was the best time of her life because she discovered us
Starting point is 00:11:00 or because she was on her honeymoon? I would like to think it's a little bit of... For my ego. I would like to think it's a little bit of both. But like that, you know, and reading it right there, I think I needed that in this moment as well. This is why we do it guys. We don't do it so we can get in fights with commenters. We don't do it because
Starting point is 00:11:16 we get followers and shit. We do it because we love connecting with our audience. We love connecting with you guys. We love hearing from you guys. Stuff like that means a lot more to us than you think. I'm a huge softie, and I'm open about it. Shooter is a closet softie. He won't admit it, but I know he is.
Starting point is 00:11:32 He's got a big old heart in there. So stuff like this, it means the world, especially on a day like today, when I'm a little frazzled, I'll be honest, I'll be open. I'm a little frazzled. So reading that out loud genuinely just brought me down a little bit reminded me what it is we do here. And I think that I needed that before we jump into OC, because OC had me rabid. We touch hearts here.
Starting point is 00:11:52 We touch people. Oh, wait. We are moving on. There you go. But the only news I want to talk about, and it's going to get me ramped up again, but is that OZempic tweet from Tamara. Now, Tamara
Starting point is 00:12:08 went on and deleted this tweet, but I guess Jen was on Watch What Happens Live, and if you watched OC this week, then you saw, once again, Tamara starts to drag her friend Jen, who she brought on the show. And once again, went on Twitter and said, I didn't bring her on the show. How would I have done that? She talks herself into a corner all the time. She just doesn't seem truthful to me.
Starting point is 00:12:32 It's just like she tries to spin whatever narrative fits her. And then she forces that on people via her Twitter, via her podcast, her Instagram, whatever her platform is. She is just trying way too hard. In the show, socials, overall, I'm, I wish she needs. never came back. I wish she would leave the show. She's ruining OC for me and I was enjoying it up until now, but I thoroughly didn't enjoy this episode. I wrote on the last page, zero out of ten, that sucked. Yeah, I kind of felt the same way. And it's funny because we didn't do an OC review last week. So I was like, yeah, you know. I was ready to get back in. Yeah, like ready to get back in, ready to change it up a little bit because we've been watching a lot of
Starting point is 00:13:12 the other shows. And immediately just like, fuck, man, this is, I know I put it, and I think you did too, put it at the end of my power rankings yesterday. Yesterday, it was slightly behind whatever I had third. I don't even fucking remember. It was just yesterday. But it was slightly behind now. It's so far down there that I don't, I'm at the point now where if next week sucks, I do not want to watch the rest of this.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Well, what's coming up soon? No idea. Yeah, so we'll see. But let's jump into OC, get through it to Crappy Lake. It's Crappy Lake. I watched after O.C., and it was delightful once again. But we start out with Shannon and John, and they're moving forward in their relationship or hoping to do so. And a big, I don't want to say speed bump because they're communicative about it, which I really appreciate.
Starting point is 00:14:00 They're having the conversations they need to have. Shannon has three kids leaving for school next year, so she's kind of panicked. She has a lot going on in her world. We find out later her ex, David, he's got rumblings and his marriage. Things aren't going well, which means that that obviously affects Shannon because that affects her children. So, like, she has a whole bunch of shit going on. And John says to her, you know, I want you to be able to, like, take a breath and just relax and have fun. And it's such a touchy subject.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I know that he's being genuine. John's trying to help. He's trying to say the right things without pushing too far because he's not saying that she's not fun. He's saying that you have so much to do right now. You're so stressed out about everything. You're not finding time for yourself to, like, breathe. Right. And it's hard to say that without insulting, I think.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I don't know because, I mean, again, I'm not in that situation. I'm not Shannon in this situation. So I didn't feel insulted by it. I thought that he was being supportive. Oh, no, I didn't either. I just think it's hard. Yeah, it's definitely a hard subject. But what I got from this, and I, look, for what the show's worth and not enjoying it
Starting point is 00:15:05 overall, from this scene, I actually kind of enjoyed it because this is the first time that we're seeing John when he's not on a boat in the background. Maybe it's a son. Maybe it's John. Who the hell knows? We're going to interrupt this conversation to talk, John, 500 yards. away on a boat. No. We get to see John and they start talking about another dog and he's practical. He gives her right answers. You can tell that he's actually interested and cares
Starting point is 00:15:26 about what Shannon's doing with her life and her other kids. I thought that Shannon this episode aside from being back with Tamara as friends, which fucking sucks now, aside from that, she kind of humanized herself. I agree. Whereas I thought the first couple episodes that she was insufferable. And after that scene with John and then later you can see that it's actually affecting her that David is getting a divorce she calls her one of her daughters I didn't see which one she calls one of her daughters and she's like actually breaking down and I know it was a never before scene so if you didn't watch the peacock version you probably didn't see this but she was on the phone with her daughter talking about it and she was actually upset like it it's crazy to think like
Starting point is 00:16:02 my yes I share children with this man but he's still my ex-husband and I'm in a relationship right now like she still emotionally feels for him and I thought that humanized her to the point that I actually like her now. No. Again, aside, she does take a completely big step back because she's now friends of Tamara. I agree with the Tamara thing, but I think that that's a perfect analysis. She took 10 steps forward for me because you're able to, this is the problem with
Starting point is 00:16:29 production, right? Like, we get different views of these women to where maybe we're not getting the humanizing parts intentionally, which sucks for them, because these weren't just like mild humanizing moments. These were massive. These were things that I actually connected with her, watched her get emotional about her children, her ex-husband. Like, you don't have to get emotional about your ex-husband, but she did. She felt for him.
Starting point is 00:16:49 She felt for her children. She feels a lot. And, like, I didn't get that in the beginning. Now I get that. And I think that that's massive. Like, we always talk about the humanizing moments, and that was a big one. But moving on from there, we get Tamara, Emily, and Heather, and they're getting petties. And they're talking over the Montana trip.
Starting point is 00:17:07 And Tamara now respects manual labor after two days of glamping in. Montana. She now gets it, I guess, which is... She wasn't even the one shoveling the shit. No, she wasn't. But I do love that Emily will always call out the ridiculous shit in her confession. She's like, this is what it took for you to, like, respect people that have to do hard work. Not only that, but I love that Emily obviously already knew pretty much everything that happened on the Montana trip. And as it's being brought up to her, she's still asking questions to things that she knows the answers to. She knows what's going on. And I love
Starting point is 00:17:37 the way she does that because what it does is it forces that person to give you the, their side of a story that you've heard from maybe a third party that wasn't part of it. And maybe she talked to Gina, maybe she talked to Heather, whoever she talked to, she knows what happened to Montana. So she asks Hammer, she asks Heather, what's going on? And they give her answers and she gets to weigh both of them and then ask follow-up questions because she already knows the answers to them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:59 I love that because we get to see how these women's brains work thanks to Emily. And it gives us a whole new perspective on what's going on. I think that she deserves a round of applause for that. I agree. Especially for somebody who wasn't on the trip. Like that, it sucks that she wasn't there because I do like Emily a lot. I wish she would have been there. I think that she pushes people's buttons in the right way.
Starting point is 00:18:17 And she never really gets caught up in that fire. She's always there and agrees with somebody else or like actually puts her opinion out there. And somehow she gets out unscathed because she never quite goes over for. I think that's why I think that she does it from a constructive standpoint where she also does not raise her voice 99% of the time. She will get pushed. Like we saw at dinner, she kind of stands up. But she really does kind of stay. within herself and she will keep pushing though like she keeps her volume level at the same
Starting point is 00:18:46 pitch but she'll keep poking and she does it with heather yeah at the at the nail salon because heather's getting all i i do not like heather do bro either like she is acting mind the victim in this entire thing but emily says to her the things you say are hurtful and heather's like i had a lot of things going on my kids are going to college my this my that me me me but tamra and emily are both like, yeah, that's the problem right there. You are saying that your stuff is more important than Taylor's stuff. You are, there's a great quote from Emily later where she's like, she's so unaware that she's so unaware.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And she really is. She lives in her own world as soon as it gets to the confessional. And we see this repeatedly with Heather. She'll say one thing to their face. And when it gets to the confessional, she says the exact opposite. And that's how she truly feels. All she does in these situations is try to deflect and act like she's in the right, always. And I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:19:39 There's no self-growth there. There's no self-reflection there. And it's just annoying. But we move on. We're at Jen's yoga studio. I enjoyed this scene because Jen and Gina meet back up. And I was on Gina's side with this thing. I do understand how it could be triggering with her having been cheated on and then hearing
Starting point is 00:19:59 about Jen's affair. That being said, the more I looked at it, I did feel like, all right, she didn't cheat on you, Gina. that was my point last week I know I know I'm saying I'm saying the more Jesus I'm saying the more I've looked at it it's like I think that we're both right I think that it's like right in the middle there I think that it's understandable that she's triggered but there is a certain point in which you have to move forward from it and Gina says that she goes I didn't take the time to process my shit and sort of took that out on you and Jen says I can also see why that would be triggered and they both take responsibility for and neither them did anything wrong to each other it's just they were both sort of triggered by one another and they're both able to like sit there and say hey this is why I felt this way this is why I felt this way clean slate let's move forward yeah it's one of those situations where Gina doesn't necessarily I like that she did come to her and explain her side of it and say that yeah I was triggered I didn't handle things in my own house that I could
Starting point is 00:20:56 have maybe handled differently and that's what affected me so much when I heard your story but at the same time Gina maybe you don't ask 15 follow-up questions and then get triggered even more True. If you are triggered, just understand where you are, and don't dig deeper because it's only going to hurt more. And maybe remove yourself. You could have just saved yourself from that whole thing by just kind of limiting the exposure there. And that would have been fine. But again, I understand it's a TV show.
Starting point is 00:21:18 So she wants to show up. I get it. But I do like that she came back later. She had some time to think on it. Came right to Jen. Jen alone. Important. Don't fucking bring Tamara around.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Do not have Shannon there. Don't have Heather there. Don't have anybody that's going to impact your decision. Don't have anybody that's going to impact the conversation. Talk to somebody face to face one-on-one. We need more one-on-ones. I'm so tired of this group. Fucking grouping up.
Starting point is 00:21:40 on each other and then you get Tamara screaming at people and moving her seat around because she needs to be more in the action like no dumbass go sit at the end of the table where you belong we'll get to that I fucking hate Tamara but that I would just like to say the tone from yesterday to today's episode yeah because this show sucks
Starting point is 00:21:56 this was such a like abrupt step back for this show it was shocking to me and it's funny you brought up Tamara because Jen says her and Tamara are good now she's like oh everything's fine and Gina goes to a confession she's like I don't know why you'd be good with her she's dragging you I don't think she is, honestly. I think the Jen's just trying to save face.
Starting point is 00:22:12 I think Jen is generally confused by what's going on with Tamara. Because like we know, Tamara brought you onto the show. I think that Jen didn't expect to be blindsided like this for a storyline. I didn't expect it. I mean, it's Tamara. And we didn't expect it when we first saw it, but it's Tamara. Of course, she's going to do something like this. So no, I kind of get it.
Starting point is 00:22:35 But I think that she's so confused because she thought that Tamara was a friend. And now that the cameras are rolling, she's using her and she's blasting her. Of course she is, though. I know, I understand that, but maybe Tamara is completely different off camera. I don't talk about. No way. She's got that podcast now, so that's like 100% of the time. So I really don't understand, but Gina is right, hits the nail right on the head.
Starting point is 00:22:56 I don't understand how you could be back with being friends with Tamara. Yeah. It doesn't make any sense. She is throwing you under the bus. She's sharing secrets. She's insinuating her ass off and trying to make you out to be a worse person than you are. Steele and I agree, there's definitely more to the Ryan story. There's definitely more going on there.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Absolutely going on there that she's not divulging and she's taking some other weird high road to try to get around it. But at the same time, Tamara is supposed to have your back, and she clearly does not. If she doesn't have your back, then you shouldn't have hers. And thankfully later, we at least get them to kind of blow up. But I don't really care about Jen's side of it. Kind of tired of Jen.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Oh, that's interesting. Jen actually took a step forward from this episode. I don't know. I took it from Gina's side. Gene is okay because I like it when people, yeah, did I kind of condemn her reaction to everything and crying in the trailer and running away? Yeah, that was kind of weird. But she did come back and she did apologize and she explained it in not a condescending way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:53 So I think that's a big plus. The next scene is Emily and it's just we're going to touch on it quick because again humanizing moment. Her and her mom have had a strained relationship, I guess, during her childhood, she was in charge of herself a lot and it was had to grow up a little bit faster than making. maybe she would have liked. As she got older, I think she understands more kind of what her mother was going through and is wanting to just reconnect and rebuild that relationship. It's a little strain. The last time she saw her, I think, was like 2019.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Like, that's a long time. That means the kids haven't seen her since 2019. Her mom sends her some pictures of her as a kid. She gets emotional. She calls her mom after her and Shane have a conversation. And I just thought it was really funny. It's like this heartfelt conversation. And Emily's crying.
Starting point is 00:24:36 And Shane walks off with a. drink at the end. He goes, oh, good luck. And, like, goes and turns the TV on. It seemed very ho-hum. But she has a touching conversation with her mom. They both end up crying, and it does seem like they make more of a connection there, which is nice. But then we get to the Duffy boat.

Birddogs uses anti-stink sweat-wicking fabric that keeps you cool and dry all day long, but that's not all.

Starting point is 00:26:54 And I've never heard of a duffy boat. It looked fucking uncomfortable. It looked uncomfortable. It looked awful. Like to take a duffy boat to Nobu in high heels just seems like a whole to duffy boat. do like just give me an uber like give me an uber black make a real boat then like i don't understand you were on a yacht in the second episode just do that go around the harbor for you know a couple laps have a couple of drinks have some fun and then get off the elbow to elbow they keep spilling shit in water
Starting point is 00:27:19 taxi just get a yeah like you said just get an uber get an uber they take me to nobu and go eat but the first person to walk on i'm actually happy they did it this way taylor arrives first and we know taylor and heather have the the movie thing between each other and i think we can both agree Heather's in the wrong with the movie thing. She is. I just want to move. So do I. So do I.
Starting point is 00:27:39 But we have to talk about it to move forward for it. But the way that Heather talks is intentional. It's pointed. It is always self-servicing. She goes, for some reason, I hurt your feelings. Yeah. And I'm sorry. That's not an apology.
Starting point is 00:27:56 And if you listen to her apologies throughout the episode every time she apologized, it's never, I'm sorry for what I did. It's I'm sorry. you felt that way, which is worse than saying... For some reason is what really bothered me as if Heather hasn't had 17 conversations with rant different people on the show specifically about what bothered Taylor.
Starting point is 00:28:17 You know what you do not say for some reason, like you're misinformed on this whole thing. You know exactly why Taylor is upset. Just talk to her about why she's upset. Do not dance around it. It makes no sense. It's condescending like you said. It's just bullshit.
Starting point is 00:28:33 and I don't care anymore. That's the biggest thing is like we get stuck in these fucking dumb things that become storylines that nobody gives a shit about. If it's a one episode thing and then they handle it in Montana, fine, cool, whatever. It's not a big thing. But now that it's like five, six, we're on episode eight or seven or whatever. We're on episode seven. It's been going on for five episodes.
Starting point is 00:28:54 It's not a big deal. There must be nothing else going on in these women's lives that they have to talk about this over and over and over again. And you know what? If there's nothing going on on these women's lives, get the fuck off TV. You've got nothing going on. Get out. Go.
Starting point is 00:29:08 We started today's episode with me being aggressive. I hate, I am so busy. You got, you got hot. O.C. Watching that today, watching that today was the biggest waste of time. Oh, I see. It was dumb. But I do think that we at least are going to move forward from it.
Starting point is 00:29:25 They come to terms face to face. Then we go to the confessional. And, of course, Heather's like, I'm sure she's starry for starting all of this. which is the most Heather Dubrow, shitty thing to say. She's just not nice, man. She's just simply not nice. But everyone gets to the boat and they take it to Nobu and Gina doesn't realize that there's fish in the ocean apparently because she gets scared to death and ask,
Starting point is 00:29:45 what just splashed out of the water? Probably a fish, Gina. You're in the water. It's the ocean. I would imagine it's a fish. The mermaid. They found a mermaid skeleton. Did you see that?
Starting point is 00:29:54 Yeah, yeah. I did see that. I don't think it's real. But it happened. Wait, did you see that one fish that was like a feather fish? It had like 20 different feathers coming off. They were sick. Not in person.
Starting point is 00:30:06 I've seen there's like documentaries. They're really rare. It's a star feather. Yeah. Or feather star, one of the two. So cool. The ocean is hard high. We know more about the surface of Mars than we do the ocean.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Because there's nothing on the surface of Mars. No, that's just a thing. No, I know. I do. Okay. Anyway, everyone arrives at Nobu, which let me remind anybody that's not familiar with Nobu, but most people probably are. It's one of the nicer places you can go.
Starting point is 00:30:32 to dinner, like, in the country. Like, no boo's are renowned. There's a few of them in major cities. Like, no boo's a big deal. It's not a place that you go and cause a scene. It's not a place that you go cause shenanigans and act like an asshole. And yet, we have multiple people acting like an asshole.
Starting point is 00:30:46 But they get to dinner and they're... Of course, of course, Heather has to give out a gift. And in Japanese, on the box, it says, too fabulous to shovel shit. too fabulous shit too good for you is what i get from that that's all i get from that and that's just her attitude towards everybody and that's where we get the emily comment she's so unaware of being so unaware and that's the best way to describe heather dubrow she has no clue she doesn't care to learn she doesn't care to know and it's just she's good at keeping her little bubble and her
Starting point is 00:31:24 mind that she's in the right she's doing everything right and everyone else is doing it wrong and i i don't like I feel like her mindset is that of like a 20-year-old that maybe was like a child star or just like a rich kid. She's in her 50s. Like, grow up. Grow up. Figure it out. Like that you're too, that you, just like Emily said, it doesn't make any sense for you to be that downputting of people who work like that. I know.
Starting point is 00:31:51 I don't get it. It's not funny. Like, again, if a 20-year-old girl in L.A. that's rich did that, it would make sense. If Paris Hilton 15, 20 years ago did that, that would be on brand. I understand that. But for Heather Dubrow to do it, it's just you're an asshole. Yeah, you're putting people down that are watching your show, honestly. So it's a weird move, but...
Starting point is 00:32:08 Also, why in Japanese? Nobu Japanese, I guess? Yeah, it's still. Japanese fusion. There's a lot of Japanese-related dishes there. Yeah, it's an exceptional. It's great food. And you were shoveling ship there.
Starting point is 00:32:19 And that would make sense. Nobu, black cod is one of the greatest things you can eat. But this is where we start to dive into Jen a little bit. And Tamara goes, just be honest. This is where she starts being, say, just be honest again. Let's also understand Tamara's hammered again, because she was ripping shots with Shannon before the boat. She's drinking all in the boat.
Starting point is 00:32:38 She gets to no, but she's ripping shots. Like she's wasted way more so than anybody else there. How many episodes away do you think we are for Tamara blaming Shannon for her drinking too much? One. You think just right next week? Yep. One more. She's just a wild card, dude.
Starting point is 00:32:53 And not in a good way. No, I didn't really used to drink. but then you and I became on good terms and all of a sudden I'm drinking all the time. I feel like you're just bad for me. Something like that. Wow, that literally sounds like her. But we start laying out stuff
Starting point is 00:33:05 we've already talked about the dick pick, the accidental dick pick, quote, unquote, which clearly is not an accident. Clearly, she's believing Ryan in some weird story he told her, which, whatever. Like, we've talked about it already. Emily asks the genuine questions. Are you overlooking red flags?
Starting point is 00:33:19 And this is one of those moments where you can say, is Emily being rude? I don't think so. I think Emily is asking real questions to get real answers. Like, she's good at that. And again, when she does it, it seems investigative, but not condescending. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I think that if this was like a public story or something that was floating around social media and she had asked it, I would have a different take on it.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Yeah. But because we've talked about this and they were talking about it up in Montana, Emily wasn't there. I think Emily has the right to ask. I agree. But immediately, Tamara starts screaming. Like, didn't you fuck up already? And she's yelling at Jen for not talking about it. First of all, Tamara, you're not the judge and jury.
Starting point is 00:34:01 You can't force Jen to talk about it, even though you've made that your primary storyline this year, is to drag your friend who you brought on the show, which is such a weird move and just shows you who Tamara judge is. But she starts bringing up, you know, when he came to the gym, he said he wanted to fuck me and this and that. And that's when Jen goes, you need to watch what you're saying. Okay? Implying that there's some more there, Tamara. You try to act like you're scot-free, like you're holier than now. Like you would never sink to that level. But you said some shit, too.
Starting point is 00:34:28 She gets up from the table screaming and throws a napkin in Jen's face and gets in her face. And Jen, to her credit, calm, cool, collected. What's wrong with you? What are you doing? This is ridiculous. It was. That was insane. That's not a fun housewives moment.
Starting point is 00:34:43 That was an aggressive, borderline scary moment. I thought she was going to hit her. I was like, why are you getting in her face right now? Because she challenged, you can talk all the shit that you want to everybody at the table, behind her back, in front of her face, drag her man that she's now dating. Whether you like it or not, they're together. You can talk all of this shit about someone who's supposed to be your close friend. She challenged you one time. You have the nerve to stand up, throw a napkin at her, and stomp off as though you're going to punch her in the face.
Starting point is 00:35:10 That's ridiculous. That is so not self-aware. That's who Tamara Judge is. She's not self-aware. She's rude. She's condescending. She spins her own narratives to fit her own life. style. This scene made me livid. And then she goes downstairs like she's like, she's dating a
Starting point is 00:35:24 douchebag and why are you so invested? Why are you so invested? If she was actually a friend and we've seen her be a friend to Jen this whole time and she was yelling and screaming about her dating a douchebag, that would make sense because then you're just having a hard time trying to get through to your friend, try to break up with this douchebag that you know is wrong for her. That makes sense to me because you're stuck in a hard place. You have proven since episode one that Jen is only there for you to throw her under the bus for her storyline. You are not being a good friend to Jen. So for you
Starting point is 00:35:55 to run downstairs and start yelling that she's dating a douchebag, it's only self-serving. It has nothing to do with your friend Jen. It has everything to do with you. You're just trying to cause a scene. You're trying to make this the main storyline of the year. Wow, Tamara Judge is back and she's here for a vengeance. She's trying to help out
Starting point is 00:36:11 her friend. No. Tamara Judge is back, and she's being a huge bitch. She sucks. She's awful. She should have never come back. I don't think that OC should have came back general. I think that what you do is you just put Taylor somewhere as a friend of. You throw maybe Gina out there. She's okay. Figure out where Emily can go. Emily can go on something like an Ultimate Girls trip. I don't care. She's fine. But this show in general just shouldn't be back. And if you're trying to make a big deal about, wow, OC's back in a big way, you have
Starting point is 00:36:36 her go, you have Tamara go on, watch what happens live. And she's so excited to be on there. We said it last year. Tamara sucked on Ultimate Girls trip. When she was at her in this place, when she got asked back, when she was the first person and it was the big piece of news that she was asked back and people were excited about it. You and I were like, what the fuck? She sucks. She's awful. Bring Vicky.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Vicki's funny at least. Yeah. She's not funny. She's not funny, but she thinks she tries to be funny, and she sucks. She's not funny. She's an asshole, and she stinks. Get her off the TV. Get the whole show off TV.
Starting point is 00:37:06 I don't care. I can't wait to post this on Instagram. But let's finish it out. Jen finally speaks out. She finally gets pushed to the point where she says, you air all of my shit out in front of everybody. And Tamara says, that wasn't me. And I'm like, boom, that's you. That's who you are. You just lied to everybody at the table, everybody watching the show. We sit here and watch you, Tamara. This is what you always say. How do these people not know that there's cameras on them at all
Starting point is 00:37:33 times? You have a mic on your neck. Not only that, but she's lying in her confessionals, too. Like, who were you lying to? Like, we see you for who you are. Supposed to be a veteran housewife. You should know how this works. She looks like an idiot. Yeah, she goes downstairs and ripping shots with Shannon. She goes. goes outside, she's yelling about Ryan, she's making fun of his height, which is weird. Like, leave the appearance out of it. There's no need to go there, regardless of how you feel about Ryan. And the whole thing blew up, like I said, because Jen's like, there's more here. Apparently there was a party like two or three years prior, and Tamara went over to Ryan's
Starting point is 00:38:04 house, texted or called Jen and said, hey, I'm at hot gym guy's house. Should I go upstairs with him and take one for the team? She's been party to these kinds of conversations over the years. Now that she's back on TV. Now it's inappropriate. Now you have questions, now you have concerns about your quote-unquote friend because it's convenient for you for a storyline? Get the fuck out of here. No one's falling for it. She comes back upstairs, has the nerve to say to Jen, I'm livid. I'm sorry I threw the napkin. I'm livid. You don't have the right to be. You haven't, you are the problem. You are the problem with everything. You've ruined. We were fine with OC. We were fine until this episode, Tamara Judge ruined it in
Starting point is 00:38:41 one fell swoop. And Gina and Heather, like, they question their shit. Heather does more Heather stuff. We don't really need to get into it. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. Yeah. No, I didn't either. But it goes, the one thing I will point out, they didn't show it, but she says, how long is Travis going to put up with you? And I talked about this before when Gina wanted to call Travis and she was upset about the cheating thing. In a healthy relationship, that's 100% okay. It's Travis's job to be an adult and be mature enough to listen to his girlfriend, significant other, and say, hey, we're going to get through this. Let me hear what you got to say. I know it's tough to hear you talk about your ex and getting cheated on, but that's the role I play in your life now.
Starting point is 00:39:20 And for Heather to question his loyalty to her, and I'm glad Gina said back to her, like, what are you talking about? That's my boyfriend. Like, I'm allowed to talk to him about this stuff. Like, that's so inappropriate and so over the line to talk about someone's relationship and to put that in Gina's head. Like, that's just, it's going to make her insecure next time she wants to share something. And that's going to build walls in a relationship. So great job, Heather, you asshole.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Like, you can look at my book. I literally wrote bullshit at the bottom of this in big capital letters and fuck you underlined because I was so sick of this shit. And at the end of it, I wrote, boo, awful zero out of ten. Like this was one of the most infuriating episodes ever and it stems from Tamara Judge. I'm done with Tamara Judge. He too. Now let's talk about Crappy Lake because that's going to make me happy.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Yeah, crappy Lake's good.

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.

Crappy Lake is great and this is a very different angle we're going to take here. I know we're just on the hate train. A lot of people like when we rant, I know there's some people that like us to be silly. So if you like a silly, go back and listen to our yesterday episode because you're in a great mood. O.C. put us in a bad mood. Today, Crappy Lake got me back to
Starting point is 00:42:34 neutral. This shows delight. It really is. Everything about it's light. It's easy. It's fun. And we started out. Sonia had the night of her life. She did. With a good old boy from the south. She got tipped the dollar and quarters. She got a tip the dollar in quarters. And she said, I mean, pretty much, like, let's just flat out say it. She got railed by a country boy. She did. And she's thrilled about it. And I love that. I love that. Reshard. These two are so open to doing this stuff. Yes. Not the sex. I mean, the lifestyle. Like, I love that everything that they're presented with, they're like, we can do that. They got comfortable so quickly.
Starting point is 00:43:09 I mean, it's so funny. Like, I would probably, it would probably take me a couple of days, maybe a week, to get comfortable in that hotel, motel. And it seems like they're both so comfortable being there at this point. They don't care. Like, they're walking around later in 93 degree heat and 90% humidity. And you wouldn't notice. They were having a good time. They're just having a blast, just the two of them.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Sonya rolls in shit and is unbothered. Completely unbothered. Like, they laughed about it. They brought it into the car. They had a great time. It's just so lighthearted. And I know that, yeah, there are sometimes, if you look at Roney in the past, that maybe it wasn't so lighthard between the two of them. But this show, if they continue this, it's going to be a delight all the way through.
Starting point is 00:43:46 They can send them for the next five summers to different small towns across the U.S. And I will watch each one if it's like this and just send them the different parts. They have different activities to do. Yeah, that's the thing. I really don't think it's going to work with anyone else. You're going to have to use the two of them. Two of them have a great chemistry. And that gives them 10 years of shows.
Starting point is 00:44:04 That's what I want to make sure Bravo doesn't do because, you know, know what they do. They're like, oh, this duo works. What other duo works? Don't worry about it. This duo works. Keep this duo. Keep sending them places.
Starting point is 00:44:14 But the big thing they have on the docket is to build a playground with Craig. And I love how pessimistic Craig is about their ability to follow through on this or to be able to handle all of this shit. They've proven that they're up for the task and most of their other things thus far. I've got to give them that. They have not shied away. I do like that they showed the original look towards what Craig is. said, I completely forgot in the first episode when they got off the plane, Craig was one of the
Starting point is 00:44:40 people that they interviewed. And he said, ah, two rich girls coming from New York. This is going to be a long five weeks. And they did that twice. And it's so funny that they did the callback because I thought it was just a throwaway scene just to show how people are getting ready for these women coming into their small town. And it was Craig, the guy, the public works guy, who they're going to work with on this playground. And for everything that it is, it looks like they're having so much fun. It looks like children running around. I mean, Craig is talking to Sonia and Sonia's giving him a rundown about what they've done in the past and the people that they can talk to.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Luann was flinging around a little like range finder type of thing or like a measuring stick or whatever the hell she was playing with. Just having a good time tossing it up into a tree and let it fall down. Like it was great. It's just they're always having fun. They're never just sitting around doing absolutely nothing. They're never just starting some fucking drama with each other. They're always having a good time, even when somebody's trying to steal Sonia's man.
Starting point is 00:45:33 I know. They're still having a good time. And that takes us to the mudding scene. ever been mudding once yeah there was a every spring training we we would all most of us would get down there and like wasn't like that that i we didn't do it in like the big monster oh yeah so in florida when most of us would get there at the end of january like early february before spring training started to start working out the complex and like there was the redneck yacht club in central florida and you would meet in the middle of bum fuck florida and it was just like that it looked the same
Starting point is 00:46:03 but it was in the middle i mean there was trees and chicks it was middle of florida but hundreds hundreds of people trucks there's races there's different kinds of competitions and stuff like that and you camp out there for like three days disgusting that sounds awful yeah but it's so much fun like i camped out in the back of a pickup truck for two days i think all i ate was like granola and i just drank beer for three days straight and it was it was awesome but i could never do it again but i do love mudding and i love that these two are down to do this and i love how much sonya is to Billy. She legitimately she's smitten by the Southern
Starting point is 00:46:41 boy. I guess he's a Midwestern boy. He definitely rubbed off on me a little bit differently today than he did at the bar the other night. I agree. Because at the bar the other night I'm like, oh, look at this douchebag. He's got his shirt off. He's got his fucking last name tattooed across his back one and asshole. And then when they go money with him today, I're like, this dude's a delight. He's a
Starting point is 00:46:57 nice dude. He's a small town guy that likes simple things and he, like this is going to be, and I wrote this down on the other page, there's a movie here. There is 100% son a movie here. Luann and Sonia go to a small town. Two rich New York elites go out to some bum-fuck
Starting point is 00:47:13 town to try to do some charity work, try to help out. I don't think they could put this on Hallmark. You could put this on it. You've got to make it like X-rated Hallmark. I don't think that exists, but... All right. If you did, and then, you know, they're out there just for a TV show, but Sonia finds love with Billy, and then
Starting point is 00:47:29 Luan goes back to the big city, Sonia goes with her, but she's missing something when she gets there. There's a piece of her missing. She left it back in Benton. She has to go back and find it. She gets back there. Billy doesn't live in Benton. She didn't know that. Billy's gone. She's got to find Billy. All she has left is tire tracks leading away from the pond. Where did Billy go? She follows the track. She gets back to Billy's house. Billy has a picture of his wife in the window. Little do we know. This is why it's in the window. Because the wife
Starting point is 00:47:54 passed away five years ago, and in memorandum, he keeps the picture in the window. Sonia doesn't know that. She goes back to New York. Billy, he sees her leave. He gets on a plane immediately, flies there, lands. And when he gets to New York City, he makes his big grand gesture. he walks into Sonia's building. He goes, Sonia, I'm here, and they fall in love and move back to Benton happily ever after. Why would they move back to Benton? Because she's a small town girl, because that's where they met. That's where the magic happened.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Who's living in a lonely world? Any of them? They both are until they find each other. This is a beautiful movie. Just think of that just now. I figured out that there was a movie here. I just put that whole thing together right now, yeah. That was freestyle screenwriting.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Honestly, that's probably better than most Hallmark movies I've ever watched. It's pretty much a Hallmark movie. And then you can just throw in some. him, you know, raucous sex scenes apparently because Sonia and him are getting after it in the motel. Billy's laying pipe. Billy lays the pipe. He's got to go on?
Starting point is 00:48:44 Billy Richard. Well, you know what Richard, the nickname for that is, right? Dick Shard? No, I just Dick. What? So his name's Billy Dick, is what I'm saying. So that's pretty much it. We find out they're not going to be able to get the playground.
Starting point is 00:49:00 I'm sure they'll figure out a way around it. I don't see that as like this big hurdle. But I just, the quotes from Sonia are so good. She's like, when they're in the limo that Billy pulls up in, which is hysterical, she said, good dick only goes so far. There's no accoutrement here. And then Luann starts making a play of Billy jokingly.
Starting point is 00:49:16 And she's like, you know, I'm like the cock curator. She's like, once I've been with a guy, everyone knows that's good dick. But let me get done with him first. That's what I was talking about. Like, Luan goes after this guy and starts flirting with him. And Sony doesn't get pissed off about it. She doesn't get upset about it. She throws Sony or she throws Luan into the mud.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Yeah. And then she gets thrown into the mud. And then she's rolling around and poop. Like the whole thing is just fun to watch. And we don't. It's so funny because honestly, in the past, I feel like I would have looked at this and said, this is just a good watch on in the background for a little while that I can have like some feel good moments for. I'm paying more attention to this than I was O.C.
Starting point is 00:49:49 100%. Like I was getting angry at O.C. And wondering why it's even on my TV anymore. Why do I care about this thing? And I'm zoning out a little bit here and there. With this, I'm watching attentively because I'm having a good time watching it. That's why it sits atop the power rankings. You know what?
Starting point is 00:50:04 This was cathartic for me. Yeah, I did the same thing, though. I watched O.C. first and then watch Grappie Lake, and I think that's why I was in a better spot. I think this was cathartic watching that, and then this, I swear to God, every time I'm amped up, we sit down and do the podcast, I always settle down. And I'm sorry that we came in so hot today. We were both. I did not expect to come in hot today. I was fine. I think I was feeding off of your energy. Probably. I set the toe, and that's my bad. I told you, I said the vibe.
Starting point is 00:50:29 That's something. Big vibe setter. I'm a big vibe setter. Stick down in Dallas. I told you that was going to catch. It's catching. I've been playing that song for like two years. I put it on repeat at the Conchie Corner when we go watch football games.
Starting point is 00:50:41 You know what's funny is that's what I thought. That's why I think that Billy had. So Billy either had quarters in his pockets for one of two reasons. Jukebox. Play in pool or the jukebox. Or the condom machine in the bathroom. That's actually a really good one. Small town bar.
Starting point is 00:50:53 There's probably a condom machine in the bathroom. I always keep a lookout for those. They still exist in some places. Old movie theaters, which is weird. You can get cologne, a condom and a piece of gum. Aspirin. Aspirin. And then like skeevy gas stations
Starting point is 00:51:07 Like when I go pick up Poppy in Texas If I stop at like a roadside gas station To like go pee A lot of times there's stuff like that in there Yeah that makes sense But that takes us to the question portion Let's wrap this bad boy up So we can go to a sound bath
Starting point is 00:51:22 And calm the fuck down So up first We have Oh this is an interesting question From Christine D. Philippus thoughts on Ryan, would you bros interview him? Absolutely. We'll interview anybody.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Yeah, we'll interview. That would be an interesting interview, actually. Yeah, and we're not going to be assholes about it. We wouldn't be assholes. That was the funniest thing for the Fuda thing was we would interview Louis and we're not going to be an asshole about it. We're going to let him talk and then figure out what he said and what's a lie and what's not. Just like we will with everybody else. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:51:54 Absolutely. From Amy Middleton 555-5. Oh, God. Power rankings of OG's Shannon, Heather Tamara. I can do this for both of us. Shannon, Heather Tamara. Yeah, thank you. Yep, you're welcome.
Starting point is 00:52:09 From Mr. Jared Barnes, our good friend, Jared B. You think Tamara put pressure on herself to do the fucking most because she was rehired? Yeah, and I also just think this is who she is inherently. I think that she thinks that she's a fucking star. She thinks she is... She's not. Yeah. At all.
Starting point is 00:52:25 If you were a star, you wouldn't have been asked to leave in the first place. Correct. That's the biggest statement right there. You should have some humility when you come back and just be thankful that they asked you to come back. Don't be all... The most. O.C.'s dying without me. It's like, no, O.C.'s just dying.
Starting point is 00:52:39 O.C.'s dying. It's with or without you. You actually are accelerating it. Exactly. Yeah. You are expediting the death rate. Yep. It's been a wild episode. We got a little heated.
Starting point is 00:52:51 If we got you a little nervous, we're sorry. We'll be fine next week when Roney comes back. We can watch another episode of Crappy Lake. We can watch Atlanta. I'm enjoying those three. And I know that it's a slow season for Atlanta, according to a lot of OG Atlanta. of fans we respect that we still enjoy it um but we are you know slowly plugging away on these shows
Starting point is 00:53:11 Atlanta's got to be wrappings relatively soon I'd imagine we're getting close uh crappy lake I'm not sure with the runtime as I hope it continues until we get like Beverly Hills back honestly remember to buy tickets to our live show next week we're so excited for it city winery Manhattan July 26 make sure you get your tickets follow us on all our socials at brava underscore bros and subscribe to our Instagram and by Instagram, I mean YouTube.

Starting point is 00:54:22 That was wild. It's so funny. Like, practicality, not great, but it made a lot of sense. I mean, George and I each got two beers, but you put the big bucket full of ice and beers down in front and people are trying to cross over it it's really funny.
Starting point is 00:54:35 You remember in high school when we go to movies with a case of beer and sit in the back and we'd get up at the end and it's like cans clanging every way.
Starting point is 00:54:43 Us like fake coughing over cans opening. We would always miss it just like we would ask somebody else to cough for us while we opened it because for some reason
Starting point is 00:54:53 we couldn't cough and do it at the same time. Oh boy. Great times. All right we're going to go to a sound bath and we will see you's next week we got two episodes next week

And O.C. can kick rock. And O.C. can get the fuck out.
Starting point is 00:55:18 I like that. I think we need a break again from O.C. But we love all of you. Sorry we got a little amped up. It's not at you guys. It's pretty much specifically at Tamara Judge. So Rob, brozer out of here. Bye.
