This is quite quickly becoming my favorite show. This is just delightful to watch. Even the negative stuff in this show is like delightful to watch. It's very bizarre that no one's talking about this show. I don't know if you've seen this too. No one's talking about it. It makes no sense. It's really good.

You jump in feet first. And there's a ton of familiar faces. And it's just the continuance of what we saw before. You would imagine that a lot of people that watch Shaz in the last, you know, 10 years would have been a excited to have this come back, and yet it just gets no chatter, and I don't really get it. As there's a drive in a deep left field by Castellanos. Oh, man, it's 8 o'clock. And so that'll make it a...

I don't need the spotlight. I shine just fine. Hi, I'm Karma. And yes, I am a bitch. Bravo Bros. Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of Bravo Bros. Your favorite show from The Bros for everybody, for whoever wants to listen. I am still getting used to saying this again. I am Steel Russell joined as always. I know.

I got it. I got it. Everyone caught down everybody. I'm your co-host, you're also joined as always by the one and only shooter, Perge Gooter. What's up, dude? That's a new one.

I'll take it. Well, I can't keep a shot or my godder because it does. It just takes me the traders. Yeah. And, yeah, it doesn't work that well. Yeah, this show feels like a fever dream. It's almost like it's on. I don't know what to get from each episode.

I don't know what's going to happen each episode. I'm still learning names, but I feel like it's almost at the end of the season. Like there's so much going on and there's so many things to keep track of that it feels like it's the culmination of like five different storylines going on at one time. It's like, holy shit, what's going to happen next? By the way, I still cannot remember your name.

What's your name again? Thank you. I appreciate that. That's kind of where I am. And I don't really get it. I'm really enjoying it because I feel like it's almost like a brain teaser and it's also like keeping me very engaged. But I feel like the drama is just a lot different than other shows. It seems like they're hitting everything in stride and it's not like some insurmountable thing that they can't get over.

They almost get over it instantly or have a really productive conversation, then get over it. Or they agree and then say, yeah, this isn't something we're going to get over. We're just going to leave it behind. It's all the things that we love in a show like this. Yeah, and I think another big part of it is authenticity. I would be hard pressed to find a show on Bravo or reality TV that's as genuine as this. And that's my favorite part because the conversations are not scripted. They are not coming into this with notes trying to hit certain things.

Like, it is off the cuff. It is real shit. It's relatable shit. They're just, they're so. what's the word captivating like i'm just captivated like you said every scene i'm locked in i'm this is not a phone show i'm not scrolling i am rewinding to rehear things because i'm like oh wow wait what but i'm not rewinding because i miss something i'm just i'm enthralled i think that this is such a good cast this needs more chatter this is better than soho season one and we were up in arms

that nobody was talking about that the fact that people aren't flocking to this show especially given everything that we've watched over the past year or two, we've had a good six to eight months in Bravo, but before that, I think we can all agree. We were on a downtrend for a little while. This is like glory days of Bravo that we're seeing on this show. And I don't understand why more people aren't lining up to watch it.

It's so damn good, everybody. Like, we need more Shaw fans. If you were a Shaw fan before and you're not watching, what are you doing? What are you doing? I hope that when people say shaws, nobody thinks about Jen Shaw like I just did. Oh, that's why you made a face. I was like, why did you make a face?

What I, everything I said is true. I was making a face about Jen Shaw. She doesn't belong in this discussion. No. Yeah, I think it's almost, it's the real housewives of Miami effect. They were on pause. Yeah, yeah. That first season that when they came back, it was awesome.

We jumped right in. I know it was the first year that we were doing this podcast, so we just wanted more and more content so we could cover things. And it was coming back. So it seemed like a great time to do it. It was on Peacock. It wasn't on Bravo. But I don't think anybody fucking cares about like, I don't know anybody who has cable

anymore except for my parents. That's always. So, so yeah, it's not like a big thing if it's not on Bravo, but this is on Bravo. And it does feel similar to Miami coming back where you and I were talking about it. Like, why is, why is no one watching this? And then even the season after that, we had the same question. Finally, it blew up. And then now people are saying.

that they want to change things, but that's, you know, human nature. I just hope it doesn't do the same. I hope it's more of like the Valley trajectory where the other Valley show people were hesitant to jump in because we didn't want to give Jacks a platform. We didn't really care what Brittany was up to. We didn't want the likes of like Sheena and Lala and everybody kind of jumping in. And we didn't know anybody else. We had unknown quantities out there.

So that being said, it took, I want to say five or six episodes for people to really lock in for the Valley. Maybe the same thing's going to happen here. We're only three episodes in, but, or I guess four. How many episodes do we have? We're three. This is three. They're double drop.

Yeah, this is three. This is episode three because their double drop really kind of screwed me up. I remember clicking on episode three and then being confused. But either way, it's got the same feel. And I'm okay with it. We're going to try to get the people that listen to our show to watch it because we enjoy it and we want other people to enjoy it. But I understand why people aren't watching it yet. I'm just a little confused because I'm watching it.

it's a great product. Yeah, you're right. It's the Valley Effect, hopefully, where people will start to dip a toe and be like, oh, wow, like they are firing on all cylinders. Let me, let me catch up. I don't know. I guess I get nervous that it's going to get real girlfriends in Paris. You know, that shows left me with a bad taste.

I think they have so much more invested. Now, yeah, it hasn't been renewed for a second season. Yeah, it could go by the wayside. We don't know yet. But I don't know. I do feel like with this valley type of spinoff, Bravo has way more invested in this and they're going to keep it going. And I get maybe the authenticity,

maybe all the reasons that we like this show are the reasons why people don't want to watch it. Maybe it's like, all right, yeah, I got tired of Shaz towards the end because it was too much. They're involved in each other's lives to like the 10th degree. And there's so much going on that I just don't really want to watch this. Maybe that's why they're not carrying over. I don't know. That's what everyone asks for in all the other shows is more involved.

man, bang, you got it. Well, let's look at the highest rated Bravo shows, though. No, O.C. in Beverly Hills. They don't do anything. It's different. That's because they're grandfathered in. Yes, they're grandfathered into viewership. I will die on that.

Jersey still had a big viewership when it went out. Yeah. That's not indicative of a good show. Damn right. They didn't talk to each other. And they still had hair ratings. I'm agreeing with you. It's a good show.

I'm not saying that. I'm saying we're not getting. numbers because the majority of people who watch Beverly Hills look at a show like this and like, I'd rather just watch rich women just kind of gallivan around and go to the store and shop and not really talk about each other's lives. I don't know why, but that just seems to be the typical person that's watching Bravo and it makes no sense. And then you have the other 20% of us over here who are clamoring on social media to watch the shows that are genuine like Southern Hospitality, like Shaws, like the Valley, things like that. And the other side of it, the other 80%

percent. It's like, well, you know, I set my T-vpo for Beverly Hills. That's what I'm going to catch up on. I'd be curious what the actual Numbies are. Like, if it is that big of a skew. I just think, I don't think it's that wide of a margin. I would imagine that. Oh, no, the ratings majority is really down. Oh, no, no, not that part. That, yes, I agree. I more mean the percentage of people that want to watch authentic. I think is higher than that. I just think that the, the curmudgins of Beverly Hills and OC and the, and the likes are louder on social media. But hey, all that to say, this is a great show. I really want, if you listen to us, like, you have to watch this show. This show is like right up our alley, which means it's right up your alley. So please do yourself a favor.

Jump in so we can get a second, third, fourth, fifth, this is set, Cep's season. Okay. Well, we can play a little game right now if you want to. What do you think the last two episodes for, we'll say the last episode for Vanderpump and the last episode for Persian style. What do you think is higher? They're almost exactly the same. They only had, uh, let's just compare it.

I mean, obviously, Potomac is like four times as much as Persian style. They're doing well. They're doing it. Yeah. Uh, Beverly Hills. Fuck, Jesus Christ. I know. I know.

It's so wild. It's just grandfought viewership. This is my favorite thing ever. It is like four times as much people watch Beverly Hills as VPR and Persian style. And then the note underneath just says series low in total viewers. So that's their lowest that they could possibly go. That's incredible to me.

That makes me sad watching that. I know. I know. Oye, aye. Well, let's jump into this episode because we do have a lot to break down. This was an action-packed episode. That's what I've learned about the Valley Persian style is you're going to have a lot to break down.

because each scene is just packed with multiple people commenting on the same thing. And we start out with bombshead and Sky. And she's got a trunk show in two days. I guess she makes jewelry. And she's holding the show at her house. So she's trying to get everything in order. But Gigi's only fans come up. Now, I just have an overall question for you.

Okay. Is she actually taking issue with all of these things that Gigi does, such as the drinking, weed only fans or is she just immediately saying oh you're just trashy. Is she actually upset about the individual things or is she just like oh blech she's gross?

I think the overarching view of Gigi in Sky's eyes is that she's trashy. So everything that she finds out about Gigi she just classifies as trashy. But in this scene, look, this is not a knock on Sky. But I feel bad even saying this. When she goes through what she did,

I don't even know if it was this scene or whatever, it's applicable. When she's going through her life and she's like, you know, I grew up in Iran, I had a great life with my father. And then I moved to America when I was 23 or 24 and I started working in the service industry. And then my life just took up from there. We know that you met Bomsey and then your life took up from there. So like for her to then look at somebody like Gigi who is doing well for herself. And yeah, we make fun of her because she's looking to quote unquote downsize to like five bedrooms. and she's freaking the fuck out.

But at the same time, she's done really well for herself. And obviously she has family money. You shouldn't be in that position. Like, where would you be without Bomsey? And maybe you find somebody else and maybe you eventually pick yourself up from the bootstraps and then you sell some jewelry or whatever. I don't know what the hell you're going to do. But to say, you know, I had a great life and I really just, I took off from there.

It's like you're not telling us how you took off. You're just saying I took off when I was 23, 24 working in L.A. at the service industry. It's like, you met Bomsy. So you don't get. to look at Gigi and say, ah, trash, low class. Like, you wouldn't, you might be in that same position if you didn't meet Bobsey. So let's, you know, ease off on that one.

Yeah. And I also think that when you look at just the modern day, right, I would equate only fans similar to that of the service industry where you're, you're, you know, you're going to go bartends, right? You can make a fuck ton of money bartending. But it's a lot of hours. And you got to work. And if you're not working, you're not making that money.

I would equate Only fans similar to that approach. It's like, all right, I'm going to do something for myself to try to get some kind of nest egg. And then either from there you start a business or you're like, why would I stop doing this? I'm a millionaire from all these dudes that complain about OnlyFans online. And yet all of those dudes have OnlyFans accounts. You fuck losers. But yeah, I don't like the T to on Gigi because like you just said, like you started from zero. and you had some help with Bomsy that you're not referring to.

And I'm not saying that you wouldn't have made it without Bomsy. But Gigi's doing the same thing. This is her version of that. Yeah. I just had a funny thought about what my comparison for elite fans models would be. It's being a pro athlete. I mean, you're in the prime of your life. You're selling all that you have out there.

You're making a ton of money. And you know that you're not going to make that money for a long period of time. So get your money while you can. before before your body lets you down. Oh, no. That was the part that I'm like, oh, yeah, whatever. But it's not, it's not untrue. It's just, you guys know what he means.

You got what he means. And there's, hey, there's a lid for every pot. There's, there's, there's, let's move on. Tommy and MJ are recapping mom dinner with Darth Vita. And, you know, Tommy's talking about, turn into a bloodbath and you know she said you're very unhappy in our marriage and this that the worst parts of you by the way you get from her this that the other so all i really gathered from this scene i don't think it matters what tommy says i don't think it matters what mj says i think that mj

and i'm not saying that tommy's not at fault at all i can't imagine being married to him's a walk in the park all the time it feels to me like mj's trying to put out on the screen that she's making all the efforts. We really haven't seen the other shoe, right? The other shoe hasn't dropped, so to speak. And I'm not saying, again, I can see Tommy's shortcomings. There are glaringly obvious. And I talked a lot about that last week.

I'm more just asking for a full picture now. I need to see both sides of this street. So I can understand fully not who's to blame, but where things fell apart. Because as of right now, Tommy's being genuine. what I get from MJ is she's trying to put on for for the cameras. Yeah. Unless it's cheating or the guy is an obvious piece of shit,

we don't try to figure out who's to blame. We don't even really like to use that terminology when it comes to divorces. And we've seen a whole lot of them on shows like this, especially the ones that we've covered. So I don't even want to play in that area. But when it comes down to it, this conversation was weird to me. And again, building off of what we said last week where,

yeah, it kind of looks like MJ was excited to get back into the show so that she can do this and show that Tommy's a terrible person and he's he's ruining our marriage and he's just making it really difficult to move forward and like me and my mom are on one side. He's on the other side. It's like, okay, it should just be you versus him or you guys trying to come together, whatever. And then the conversation with Vita last week, it's like, are you doing this? Did you tell your mom to have this conversation with Tommy on camera? Yes.

So that we could see more of this because you know that's going to be a trigger for him. if she sits down with him and says that you're unhappy. And Tommy brings that to her right away. And again, we can very clearly see what's wrong with Tommy. We can very clearly see the issues there. You did marry him. Apparently he's still the same person, whatever. When he brings it to your attention that your mom said,

you're unhappy in this marriage and it's hurtling towards a divorce, do you deny that? No. You don't say anything. You sidestep it and change the subject and then go back to doing a bunch of different things and then asking him like what he's doing. It's a bizarre way to do this. And honestly, it just kind of turns our focus more into this is what you want.

Just come out and say it. Like don't have your mom do your dirty work. Have a serious conversation with Tommy. And if you do it on screen, I don't care if you do it on screen or off screen. But if you do it on screen and he's actually trying to work through things, work through it with them. You married the man. And if not, then just leave. Like I don't really understand why you're going through all of this effort to try to paint yourself as the person who's, you know,

has to leave for the betterment of your own life. Like, I don't care. But don't do it this way. It just seems dirty. Yeah, it seems inauthentic. It seems like you're trying to paint a picture that may or may not be true. Yeah. And like you said, we're not sitting here going, oh, maybe she's to blame.

I just want a full scope. I want to understand how you got to this point. And there's always two sides to every story. And then the third is the truth. So like, just more info would be great. So we can deduce what's going on with you too. And I agree with you. it's quite clear what you want.

And I know we're leading towards that. Somebody in our comments pointed out, and it was very interesting. Everyone else on this show is introed in the intro as a couple. The only one that's not is Tommy and MJ. Their MJ is introduced. That's because they were already divorced by the time that we. I don't know.

I would love to know the timeline of when they filmed intros versus the whole show. Or when the divorce happened, I mean. But that is a really interesting. point. So either yes, they were divorced or MJ was like, hey, we're headed towards this. Like, I don't want to be on camera with them. So again,

that gives us more info in the intro. Yeah, no, that's a really good point too. And it's interesting. We do applaud this show for being very authentic. And yet, I have questions about this. And I have a whole mess of a lot of questions between Greg and Tannen.

Like a lot of questions. Yeah, they're the outliers of the authenticity. Everybody else, it's like, okay, I know exactly what's going on. I know exactly what you're thinking and you're saying what you're thinking and I appreciate that. These two, mostly Greg and Tannen, I'm like, all right, enough of the bullshit. Stop doing this to us. Yeah. And obviously, the issue for me is Greg more so. But Tannin's responses are very confusing. Very extremely confusing. I don't have a read on them yet. I'm working on it. But let's keep trucking. We get the Sky and Reza and Tannen. And they are going to get a little

little manny petty. You know, they're getting their nails done together. And they're talking about I skipped it. Yep. Yep. This is Reza, not Reza Jacks. Thank you. Thank you. Hi, I'm Brian Lucci, a former Chicago cop. Now I'm a producer on Chicago PD.

Let's keep Chuck Week to Sky and Reza and Tannen. And they are recapping the Greg Date Night, you know, and immediately, and obviously, especially with this crew, you know that they're going to get involved to a certain extent. So I understand setting it up the way the Tannen did, but she was like, it was good. It was good.

We had a deep conversation, you know, and he doesn't like when I go out to dinner with my girlfriends. And meanwhile, he's going out and giving his number to some lady. that texted about 2 a.m. And, you know, yeah, it's not that big a deal, but I was like, wait, whoa, whoa, what? Why is this being downplayed so very much? I don't understand. And that's also res appointing out like, hey, Greg, why don't you take your wife out? Like, that's the easiest solution.

You're going out and giving your number to ladies because you're quote unquote in a bad spot. She's going out with her friends and just having a fun night. But wouldn't the answer to all of this be you go out with your wife? you would think I still think this whole thing smells of bullshit there's something wrong

there is something seriously wrong in here and honestly if it wasn't for the fact that it seems like they're all so involved in each other's love lives and the marriages and relationships that go along with it I would really think that this whole thing is a charade and that they're just playing it up and acting

like they're still together but they've been separated for a while or in an open marriage or whatever it is for a long time unless they're playing it extremely close to the chest, something just stinks in here. It's just bizarre and I don't really care for it. That scene last week on date night, they acted like they hadn't really talked in weeks and maybe they hadn't,

but they were saying the exact same thing. And then Tannen finishes the entire scene, the whole dinner with I'm so tired of talking about this. We have the same conversation all the time. But you started the conversation by saying we haven't talked in weeks. I don't really understand what's going on. We haven't done this in weeks, dinner. They tried to, I agree with you.

I'm saying you're saying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There's just a disconnect from what reality is and what they're trying to present. And that's okay. Like I understand. We have multitudes of people on these shows that don't really want to show us

what's really going on in their lives and they play some things up. Fine. I get it. But this just seems like there's something missing and there's something, like a big elephant in the room that we can't really see, but we know it's there. And the way they talk about it, like I just don't agree with it. Tannen brings this up to these two, to Sky and Reza, who she knows. And we just had a whole conversation about Sky and Bomsey's sleeping arrangement last week.

You know they're going to get involved. You know they're going to start talking about it. And then later you're like, wow, I can't believe that they talked about it. It's like you knew what they were going to do. And I feel like this whole thing is a setup. By the end of the season, we're going to be talking about them separating. We've got MJ and Tommy completely divorced. There's just so many things that it seems like they're laying out these pieces

and they're going to knock them down by the end of the season. And I don't like that I can see through it. Yeah. it's weird you know and it could be you could chalk it up to first time on reality TV you could shock it up to you know being afraid to divulge too much I don't know but yeah it's as a viewer and I'm sure I speak for a lot of you out there listening to to us right now we do see through it like shooter said like it's quite clearly there's some big thing that we're not addressing we're moving past something that would make all of this makes sense and unfortunately for

them. They're on Bravo. And if there's anything that a Bravo audience does, it's dig. They're going to, we're going to find out what's up, whether you tell us or not. So do yourselves a favor, let us know. And then we get ahead of it. Yeah. I don't know. I don't get it.

But with Tanin in particular, I think maybe I just can't look over the fact that she launched her skincare line. Yeah, you're still stuck on the skincare line. Come on. At least we didn't get a reference. We didn't get a reference. of at this time at least. But I,

I, you know, listening to Reza talk about it. He's like, well, who fills up your tank? Like, who's,

who's supporting you? She's like, look, the guy's my best friend, you know, romance and, uh, and taking care of me,

just not his strengths. I'm like, that's literally like, the two most important things of your spouse is taking care of you. And vice versa. And the romance. When did she turn into Tommy? I don't know.

That's, it's, oh, I don't know. I think that just, Yeah, yeah, way. And sometimes it just makes more, it hits better in a, in a trad, like a New York accent. You had, I thought you had some weird full circle moment that I wasn't in on.

You're like, that's why she reminds me a Tommy. Like, okay. No, no, no, no. I wouldn't do that to her. But you know something's wrong. Seriously wrong. When we get, this is so random. And this just adds to, to my question marks.

we go to the next scene Greg pulls up I believe it was a Porsche Pink Porsche big Bo on it He's like hey I'm gonna do a New York accent again Hey I know I made you cry

All right I felt bad I hear you You need more effort for me Here's a hundred thousand dollar car Love you No 200,000 dollar car

200,000 car Yeah No Greg I thought I did too I didn't go on these vacations No no no that Oh wait the fuck that's right Did he use

Tadden's money to buy a car? I think maybe. I think there's a possibility in here. This is my line of thinking. If we already know, and maybe it's just bullshit in general, that he can't go on these vacations because it's just for Sky and Tannen, maybe they've got something going on. I don't know.

I'm not throwing that out there, but I am keeping my eye on it. We were told that Greg doesn't have money to go on these vacations that they want to go on. And then she starts talking about these vacations. I'm like, yeah, I'm sure they're a little expensive, but not as expensive as buying a $200,000 Porsche because you've made your wife cry. It's very confusing. Nothing is adding up with these two.

Maybe he did use her money. That's my thought. And it's just presented to us like, wow, thanks, Greg. And then he'll walk away by the end of the season. It's like, what happened to that car? Well, it was actually Tannen's money. Oh, okay, great.

Or Tannen wanted a new car, gave Greg the money. Greg went and bought the car And this was all planned Yeah Whatever it is I can't tell if they're hiding things from us Or trying to do things for the camera

I don't know Somewhere in there There's somewhere in that realm And I don't care for it The confessional she's like It's a step in the right direction It's like no it's not This is a bandit on a bullet hole

This is this is Mo buying Kyle a ring Two years ago That's what this is Give me a break Anyway It's literally What does it call it again?

What's that word? I don't know. What word? They said it for Kyle's ring. I think it was Kyle's ring when Mo bought that ring. Yeah. Mo bought the ring for Kyle and somebody said, is that a blank ring? Garsell said it.

Chastity. Yep. That's what it was. Is that a chastity ring? Promise ring. No, it's like a fuck. I'll figure it out. You guys listening, you know.

Comment. Commiseration. Miss a ring. That's what it was. Thanks, dude. Let's get to the president, Adam. This is my favorite couple on the show because they do love each other, quite clearly. These two love each other.

And I'm sure Amir and Natasha, too much. Like, that one's too wholesome. It's too wholesome and perfect. They're getting the Danny and Nia at it where it's like, all right, you guys actually do love each other. You've got a bunch of kids. you're very busy. You live normal lives. We'll check in with you guys at family parties.

Otherwise, have fun. We don't want to bother you. That's what it seems like to me. But I like that they're communicative. You know, they're putting together these jars of like snacks and things like that. Because anytime you go to a Persian household, they always have these delicious treats out for everybody. And Adam's like, we need to turn this into a business. And so they're doing this together.

It's another soft business launch. it is what it is that's what happens on these shows we get new businesses yeah i guess i don't whatever bravo just we didn't we didn't get a name you know they didn't name it yet yes they did yeah is it i i Persian house or something they did they did say it because it was a very inauthentic scene where resa asked adam does this fit in and and we have our name on the front of it on a sticker what's our name again babe and he said the name i i don't know the shared house or something. All right.

Well, just look past it. I will. I was trying to. I've just brought up the nuts. And then he made a face. Then I commented on the face. Now I'm talking like Jerry Seinfeld. Okay.

I just, I can't with these. Like, hopefully this is just like the, I guess, what's the opposite of a calm before a storm? Like the eye of the hurricane? Like,

we're really in it right now, but it's going to be over soon. Like, what gets really? really, I really, I'm going to regret asking you this, but what gets really vigorous at the end and then stops? I'm not going to say that. A storm. This storm.

That's what. Yep. The eye of the storm right before you get to the actual eye of the storm is the most intense part of the storm. So let's say we are in the eye. It's that creepy part of the movie where you can walk out and look around. And it's like, wow, it's so calm. And you look all around you. And there's just, I've been in the eye, actually.

So we're surrounded by shitty Bravo businesses. Yeah. Yeah, there you go. See? We really are. We got there. But what's with all these businesses? No.

Imagine we get like a copyright infringement because you keep doing that. I can't. I just can't stand all these Bravo businesses. Try to upload this to YouTube. A million times. There's a copyright infringement of there, but we're not going to tell you. Yeah, I keep tagging Seinfeld. Anyway, I do.

I like their communication. I like that, you know, res is like, what can I do for you to help? And this is quite clearly an exercise that they're working on to communicate better. And I appreciate it. He's like, what can I do for you today and tomorrow to help you out?

It's like, well, you give me a back rub because I'm doing all this shit and I'm a little sore. What can I do for you? And it's more of the physical touch stuff. And he's like, you know, I, I want you to. to touch me and kiss me out of nowhere and things like that. And we find out finally why he's so hesitant to do that.

Because in my head, I'm like, is this a big deal? Is he just like like super non-intimate with Reza? Or is it him working through something? It's him working through something. He grew up in a household where his dad would literally be like, I'm not doing that pussy shit. Don't hug me. Apparently he's from New York as well.

But I just, I like, I like these two. They're very, they're cute together. They're very sweet. are very cute together. I will say they have that going for them. I think really, like, when we get to see a scene with just the two of them in their house, that's what we're doing. We're working on that. We're working on the relationship. It's always some sort of work in progress. We figure out something. We move on to the next thing. That's probably what they keep doing. It does seem authentic. And I do think that they're doing that. It's very different than the other

scenes with other couples that we see where it's like, I don't really believe what you're doing, but you're still learning how to be on camera. This one I do. This one actually does seem genuine. Like you said, it seems like an exercise. Yeah, and we'll always shout out a Swayzee drop because it's like, it's like Swayzee and Demi and Ghost, minus the death part. What, God, what a great movie. I know we talked to, we've talked about that movie multiple times. That's not likeoplasm.

Oh, gross. We made jokes about ectoplasm. Oh, what, you're too big for that? You're too highbrow for that now? Yeah, too big. I'm too big for that. What? For ectomplasm.

Ptoxamplasm. Let's keep going to Gigi and RJ and Natasha. They're getting many petties at, I think it's Gigi's friend, Princess, has a salon. So they're going there to get their nails done. The chemistry between RJ and Gigi is awesome. It's very funny. They're both very self-aware. And they're like leaning into this joke of like, oh, yeah, like we could. It would be a fucking disaster. But we could, right? I love this banter. I think it's perfect. I hope they never cross the line, though. I think it's perfect where it is. I don't want them to hook up. Nope. I don't even want them to hook up because I think it would ruin all of that. Between this and the scene at skies later in the backyard, it's always going to be funny.

It's always going to be a good time. And as long as we keep it a silly, goofy fun time and don't cross that line, we won't complain. But I do see, and they know that too. And that's what they're talking about. Like, it would end terribly. Both confessionals like, yeah, you know, I thought about it. It feels like Reza just wants like an eight hour relationship and then to never see that person again. Rez on the other end.

Yeah, she's hot. She's fucking crazy. But I mean, she's hot. You know, I don't know. I think Reza would be into it, but I think where Gigi is, she's like, ah, no, we're not, we're not doing any of that. That's what I love about Gigi because she's controlled chaos. It's like she knows what she's capable of. So she smokes a ton of weed and tries so very hard to not do those things.

So you're like watching this ticking time bomb of self-awareness. And then when it goes off, like she's self-aware of it. She's like, I know. Fuck you. I'm going to say some shit. Like she, as you said in episode one is going to be somebody that embodies so many things that irritate us. And yet we root for her. And that's exactly what I'm seeing on screen.

Absolutely. I'm overlooking every single red flag I see. I don't care. I agreed. And shout out to Reza Jacks are pointing out. that any dude that's embarrassed to get his nails painted, is a loser, and that's called toxic masculinity.

Hell yeah, brother. Love that. And that's why this jacks is so much better than the other jacks. I mean, that's one of many reasons. But that's like, that right there, I think was his big moment where he's like,

I'm separating myself from the other jacks in the valley. And I'm telling you what I'm about. I was like, hell yeah, brother. But anyway, they're talking about Dennis, who is Gigi's ex, as we know.

They got married after it's a confusing timeline. They were really good friends, like best friends, borderline family, as they said, something went down and, oh, they dated for four months, and then they became married. They went to Vegas,

that whole song and dance. But they were also business partners, because as we know, Gigi had a sex toy company, I believe called Intimately Gigi, or intimacy Gigi, something like that. And I guess Dennis was her business partner.

And they were raking it in. And I think I remember this from when we were doing our live show in LA. I think she referenced it. But anyway, she wants to meet with Dennis again. And she's trying to not tear his, well, not his head off, trying not to tear his dick off and hit him in the face with it,

which would probably be for the best. Yeah. But there's more to this. It's not just, yeah, we got married. A week later, he annulled it and banged my best friend. It turns out that Dennis was upon originally to make Ty, who I do not know, jealous of Dennis and Gigi.

And RJ points that out to Gigi. And here's where, again, self-aware queen love this shit because she doesn't take that and go, oh, you're going to take his side that she goes, you know what? I appreciate that because everyone else tells me that I'm right. And that's a good check moment so that I don't go rip his dick off and hit him in the face with it. Now I'm just going to rip his dick off, which is better. Yeah.

And I, you might want to refresh this for me. But when it comes to an annulment, I think. you do have to do it pretty quickly, right? So I know they were talking about like, no, no, because something got in old. Oh, yeah. But I think there is like different rules, like how quickly you can do it after a marriage where it's not a big thing.

So I don't really know. It's, anyway, why you ask me else? I, well, it was more like that to the ether. Yeah, yeah. You should know this. Correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe I have my facts wrong. But at the same time, this is definitely something like a matter of material that I would really read into.

Like, why did you guys get married? Why did you guys go to Vegas and do this so quickly and then get a nulled so quickly? Is there something else afoot? But when it comes to Gigi, I'm not asking any of those questions because I actually do think it was just some weird hurricane that flew through. They did this and that it was gone. Now, getting a little extra context that she was using him to get her ex jealous. He may have been using her so that he could get to her friend a little bit. later. Who knows exactly what's going to happen.

I don't think that either of them are going to shit any light on exactly how it all went down. But it seems like the type of shit that I want to hear more about. And that's what I'm focused on watching scenes from next week. It looks like Dennis pops up again. He's like a surprise guest. Like, oh, shit, this guy's going to drum up a lot of drama. I love that. And I feel like the way she's talking about it and bringing it to our attention is very organic. Like she is going to go sit down and talk to him. I don't know what she's pissed about like is she pissed off because she's not making it off like i think it's a it's a domino effect of i can't afford the houses that i want because i'm not making the money that i want i'm not making the

money that i want because me and dennis's relationship fell apart because we got married and then our business relationship fell apart i wish i was still a business partner of his but he fucked that whole thing up i'm going to blame him that's what i'm getting from it so it's almost less about the fact that he moved on and then immediately hooked up with her friend and more about where she is financially and why it happened that way i would I would imagine it was a journey. Like in the beginning, I'm sure it was all about the fact that he annulled the marriage, then hooked up with her friend.

I would imagine where she's at currently in life, looking at her financial situation, her house situation, all of that stuff. She's like, well, at the very least, we had a pretty lucrative business. I would like to be able to mend this bridge, at least that we could get back into business together because that tells me that he's a part owner. They must be partners in this thing. So she can't start it up again without his blessing. So I think that it's probably shifted, and that's probably why she's like ready to have this conversation, is to mend that part to get back to making some money.

The big question is, are they going to be able to be cordial enough to get to that point? Because all signs from this episode are pointing to no, like big, big no. So I don't know. I don't know, but it's very interesting. It's an extremely interesting backstory. And I also love that we keep making references to natural disasters. I think that was number five or six already. So good work.

Yeah. Yeah, I've got a couple more up my sleeve. Well, let's get to Skies Trunk Show or the setup for her trunk show. And this is where you get the line that she lived in Iran for 20 years, had an amazing life, came to the U.S., worked in a restaurant, got where she wanted to be, which is great. And it's not like all a credit to Bomsy. Like, yeah, she did her own thing. But to completely ignore that fact is just you're leaving out like crucial information as to

would you have gotten to this point without him? I don't know. You may have. Yeah, but we don't know that. And you're not saying that. And that's also pointing, and I know what she's doing, that's intentional. I think that's a dig at Gigi. I really do.

It's a dig at Gigi, but it's also interesting if you go back, like the counterparts of this whole thing is what Reza said when they went. What was that woman's name, Scylla, I think, her friend, Sky's friends. That was the setting of the scene that we saw earlier that we had already talked about, where we were talking about what was going on with Greg and T's. Panan. When we get to Sila's house, I'm just going to call her that. Reza makes the comment, it seems like this is Sky's friends that she wants all of her shit. She wants her house in Bel Air.

She wants her money. She wants the status. And she doesn't have any of those things. So it's almost like an insecurity that's breathing through. Like, uh, let me take it out on Gigi. And that's kind of what I'm getting this from. But an important note to start off this whole party is I guess Bomsie was trying to get a bartender and he called the bartender the night before and the guy just no-showed.

But now I'm confused because he walks over. He walks over to sky and he's looking at his phone. He's like, wait, I don't think this is Alejandro. I don't think this is even the guy that I was talking to. What's going on here? Ah, it's all right. I'll be the bartender today. We've got 80 people coming to this event.

See what everybody's talking about and join us in the dark. Now on the way to the show, sitting us up for later is resident Adam and they're talking about the Greg thing. And they have a much more reasonable response to the Greg thing because Adam's like, that's alarming. I'm like, thank you for having a normal response.

You're the first one that's been like, I guess Resid did too originally. But like, so many people are like, oh, yeah. Uh-huh. Like, no, wait, he gave his dump. Why? This is a thing. You're making me think that I'm crazy. They're gaslighting us at home.

Stop it. Knock it off. But we get to the trunk show. And of course, Tabuli Adam walks in. This is my favorite line from Bomsy. Yeah, you know, hey, Tibouli's not Persian. But if he likes to make it, like, yeah, it's good. It's just, I have this, this feeling.

You think it's a bit? Yes, but not a comedic bit. I think he made it once, right? Trying to add to, you know, what's their company called? I never figured it. He's trying to add to. He's trying to add to when you go to a person household, there's all these great snacks. So that's his contribution to all of that.

Is this to bully? I think he made it one time. And somebody's like, this is fantastic. And he's like, well, I'm the. tabooly guy now i got to bring this to every party we watched him make it earlier and this man has yet to show up to an event without tabooly so i think that that's his thing and everyone else is now just like grinning and bearing it because they created this monster by complimenting the tabooly originally yeah i think that's probably fair to say um it's what yeah i think it's that situation

i'm trying to remember there's there is like a a film or a tv show series that oh you know what it is it's you might not even know this it's how it's how I met your mother, it's Marshall with a Gouda cheese where every single party he does this. Somebody complimented the cheese one time at every single party. I'm sure it's been on a lot of sitcoms, but it does check out to be that. I just hope that Adam, because we don't really know Adam super well, I hope he's self-aware enough that this is actually a bit. Like, uh-huh, they're going to get it.

They're going to get it to make that comment. And maybe they're not. I don't think anybody cares enough, but it is very funny to watch Bomsy go to his confessional. Like, yeah, it's not really Persian, but whatever. He likes to make it. it he's going to bring it we always can expect it you know it's going to be there now adam takes it upon himself to bring up the phone number thing to tannin and in that moment gregg pops up and tanon tries to turn it's like yeah we're talking about communication

and i'm like yeah because if i gave my number out to someone resa wouldn't be happy at all Greg, you're full of shit. And this was the most obvious part. And you've said this multiple times. This was the least believable. Oh, yeah. Oh, she caught me off guard. You know, they were like, oh, where do we go?

And I was like, ah, I don't know. Here's my number. That doesn't happen to people, right? No, it does that. No, it doesn't. In loving relationships. No, you say, here's a couple of places verbally. And then you assume that they're going to type that into their phone and figure out

where it is. That would be an extra step. That doesn't make any sense. Let me text this guy to ask him once again what the name of that place is instead of just loosely remembering it and using Google to fill in the blacks. That's what everybody else in the world does. And yet he stands by this and then says it to like third parties now. And that's what it's starting to get even more ridiculous.

But everybody's there. I love the banter. And that's why I think this show is so good because we're just going around the party checking in. Nothing's really happening for a while. You know, we're commenting on the lack of people. I was told there's 80 people here. Where is everybody?

You've got Gigi and RJ flirting. They're just a great back and forth with those two. Gigi's bored. And then she lights up a fucking joint in the backyard. And that's where we need to have a conversation. Because I agree this is disrespectful that you just go spark up. Uncuth. Yeah.

You know, and I, I get it. She's Gigi. I'm bored. I'm going to light up real quick. We're outside. I know. And we're in California, so it's not like it's illegal. I, it's just like you're at somebody else's house, you know, and there are kids there.

Again, like, it's legal. So it's this weird middle ground of like, is this disrespectful? Yeah, are we having a real conversation about this? I'm just asking if you think it's disrespectful. Oh, it's absolutely disrespectful. I mean, in reality, you go out front and walk outside somewhere. You're going to walk with your cousins a little bit. Correct.

That's exactly what you do. Unrealistic conversation here. We're outside. What are we supposed to do? Oh, yeah. I'm already out here. Come on. Let me lay it up.

I also have an ounce that I have to get through in two days because I've got another ounce coming in two days. I got to get through this some way. I don't know what you want me to do. I'm on a timeline here. It's time crunch. I can't have extra weed. That's ridiculous. But the big news is that Tommy is coming to pick up MJ and we get more on this front.

This is one of the things I chalked up to. Yeah, I agree. I can see Tommy's shortcomings. His lack of presence in the past five years I think is unacceptable. I understand. I looked into their big falling out. You had every right to be as upset as you were. I get it.

Totally get it. Whether it's for the show or not, whether it's for the show or not, whether it's for MJ's well-being or not, this is the decision that she has decided to make. You don't have to be best friends. You don't have to like them or anybody there. And you can even get to a point where you bring it up again. I don't really care.

The lack of showing up speaks volumes about your willingness to improve this marriage, in my opinion. Yeah, I agree with that. I do think that this whole conversation as it kind of just spreads around the party and we go to confessionals and whatever it might be. It kind of unveils a different part of this that I wasn't really thinking about. He hasn't met Reza, the other Reza. He hasn't met Tannen.

He hasn't met Amir. He hasn't met any of the other people that were not involved in this. I understand if you still have an issue with Reza, if you still have an issue with Gigi, fine. But you don't have an issue with these other people. And this kind of falls in line with MJ as well. where's the like attempt to have these people come over? We've seen it happen a lot of different times. We've been at everybody else's house.

When we go to MJ and Tommy's house, we're with MJ and Tommy and their kids. When we're there, why are they not having a conversation like, hey, you know, I've got a new friend with Sky. I've got a new, you know, Sky and Bomsey. I've got, you know, Greg and Tannen. Like maybe we'll have them over for dinner

so that you can introduce yourself and we can have a conversation. And it's not always, well, you know, Tommy's coming to pick me up and he's going to be out. So if you want to go meet him, you can walk outside. Nobody's going to do that. But where's the attempt from both Tommy and MJ to make a relationship with these other people? It's almost like, and if you're going to look at it like a battle, you're in a battle with Reza. Rez is winning easily because these new people are coming into the group.

He's already ingratiated into the group. Now they're walking and hanging out with him. They're going over to him in Adam's house. So you've already lost all of that. It's almost like you don't want to make that attempt. But some of it falls on MJ because she's not forcing the issue and she's not introducing Tommy or trying to push him to go do that, but most of it still falls on Tommy. Well, my question to that would be, has she?

You know, is she saying, hey, we don't know. I don't know. Yeah, we have no idea. So I'm not going to chalk it up to the, the most obvious thing that we're getting, though, across the board on this show is most of these relationships are on the rails. Like, they're not doing great right now. And you go to Sky and Bombshud and they're talking, bombs he brings up. the sleeping arrangements once again

because Tannenen further proves that you know, astrology we got the actual one. It's astrology is looking at the stars and ship. She further proves that astrology is not that reliable because she goes, yeah, Sky and Bomsey, they're 97% compatible via the stars.

And he's like, that's surprising, doesn't feel that way, and goes into the sleeping shit again. And Tannen, who is Sky's best, obviously he was like, well, I've got a different perspective because, again, not helping at all. Greg and I have been sleeping in different rooms for years and I get a much better night's sleep. I'm a much. Do you not think, Tannen, when you're saying this so confidently that that might have something to do with the distance between you and your husband? You're lauding it as like this awesome thing that everybody should do.

But on the flip side, you're in tears over your current situation and your marriage. So that doesn't make any sense. It certainly doesn't help my theory at all that you guys have been separated for a long time. It's almost like new evidence was presented and you're like, shit, why didn't we think of that? We've got to deal with Bomsy and Sky who sleep in separate rooms and that's going to be a big talking point. We could have unveiled that maybe an episode earlier. And then we would have had this whole thing where we're talking about our relationships. But in reality, we've actually been separated for a long time.

We've agreed to sleep in separate rooms. We're in an open marriage. So it's not that crazy that Greg is texting a girl to it. am this whole thing is fake like everything that they say it's like come on like just tell us what the fuck's going on stop doing this this song and dance in front of us to make it seem like you're working on it because you're not working on it and the timing doesn't make any sense we just started a new reality show we've seen a lot of people get divorced so like every time that they talk about the inner workings of their marriage more questions arise why are we just finding out about this now you were presented

to us as a couple that's been married for a while and we heard about the that that whole whole heartbreaking story of you getting in a car accident that brought you together. It just seems like you're laying out the pieces to eventually fall apart and then be like, wow, we just really needed to get with this group of people and talk about things to really figure it out. Like, I'm not buying it. Yeah. No, something stinks.

That's pretty obvious. And the party ends with sky reprimanding bombsie in front of everybody for the bartender situation. Now, leading right into the last. scene because I know we got a brief scene with Tannen and Gigi that we'll talk about, but that was more just everything we've said already. You know, Gigi's meeting Dennis the next day and they're talking about the business situation, all of that.

And she's got bills to pay. So she's trying to figure out what the fuck to do with this. So now to combine the end of the party with Sky and Bomsey at his office, I don't agree with calling him out in front of everybody. that goes both ways. I don't think problems should ever be handled in front of an audience. I think you do that shit behind closed doors. I get it's a reality TV show, so I'm not mad about it.

But this to me seems like what she's saying. You know, this is not like this is the first time he's whiffed on something. This is a buildup. This is over and over and over again. And if you look at the evidence that we currently have, right? I'm not saying bombs he's a bad dude. You don't know him that well. The evidence we have is that she ended up leaving.

your bedroom. I don't think that's just because of the snoring. This to me sounds like for a long time, maybe you haven't been showing up all the way, Bomsey. Maybe you haven't been 100% there. And now she's kind of like, fuck this.

Yeah. The one little caveat that I took offense to was Sky, like you said, bringing it to everybody's attention that he's at fault for not, you know, getting the bartender and they dropped the ball on that one. And then obviously we still have some unfinished business when it comes to them sleeping in separate rooms, which was brought to the entire

group as well by Sky. It's just a tough look when then you turn around and we see that little scene right after this where they're at Bombsie's office while he's working through some things talking about this and she's taking offense that he didn't shut it down. It's like, yeah, you started the fire. And again, I do think, I do agree with you. Bomsey probably hasn't been showing up in certain areas and he's just kind of taking things for granted and maybe that's getting under sky's skin and that's why we're seeing this sort of if you want to call it this a lash out but you can't then turn to him and be like hey you need to put out that fire that i started you came out and went to the whole group about the sleeping arrangements you came out and went to the whole group about

him dropping the ball about the bartender then they talked about your relationship as a group which happened the episode prior both things were started by you you can't then look at him and be like hey you need to stop you need to like he did kind of he actually doesn't want to like he's seems super uncomfortable talking about these things in front of the whole group. I think he'll turn a little bit when he realizes, oh, wow, this is actually going to force us to talk about our issues and maybe we'll be able to figure out this communication flatline that we have. But instead, right now, you can't really expect him to be like all defending you and defending your marriage when you're starting this discussion and them walking away because you can't handle it. It's a very

weird situation to be in. I do think they're going to be okay. I do think this is actually the this is the other end of the spectrum where instead of using the show for evil to get divorced, you're using the show for good to talk about the things that you guys weren't talking about and work on your communication issues. I agree. I don't have the same gut feeling about these two as like a Greg and Tannen. This one seems like, hey, we love each other, but we've been budding heads a lot lately and it's time to get to the bottom of it.

I totally agree. She lit the fire. And bombs did try to shut it down. He did try to reel it in a little bit. after you had a couple comments. Then he did. He tried to just move on from it. So when I'm watching them in the office, you know, the first thing she does is,

is comment on his desk, which is innocuous, not that deep. But when you add everything together, it's like, man, they just irritate the shit out of each other. Like your desk is always a mess. Anyway, blah, blah, blah, blah. One of the biggest markers for, like, you guys are not viving is mocking. I think when you see a couple, like, when she's imitating his. voice like bra what the fuck is that i'm like oh you guys really are not in a good place right now but i don't

think it's an insurmountable thing i think that they love each other yeah i i would agree with that now let's get to the last scene with gg and dennis and it's tense right out of the gate and uh again usually i would fault a bravo leb for taking this stance because i'd be like whoa whoa whoa you can't just fall back on what you said earlier no i'm cool because she immediately goes in on them for for good reason you know you're my family he's like we still are it's like no no no why are you you angry it's like oh because a level of trust you know you banged my friend a week after got a note i even pointed out like oh this is pretty quick are you trying to get your third marriage underway uh-huh whatever when it goes to the confession with producers like didn't you say like

you had a partner she's like no fuck that no no no it's different now i was like i agree it is different now go get him yeah get this douchebag i agree with you rip his dick off i would see you get him in the face with it I don't care. But yeah, I mean, we get the rundown on everything. And it's what we've already heard. You know, they got married quick and old. He went out with a friend, blah, blah, blah.

And it gets to a point where she has to leave the bar. And she's like, man, can I go punch something? I need to feel some pain, which, you know, we get that. I understand. Yep. It's very real. I don't know. I don't know.

I would imagine cooler heads will prevail eventually. I think there's enough at stake as far as if this is a lucrative business, You want to get back to work, get that. You can tell she still cares about this dude. I think that's the biggest thing. There's a lot of feelings here. So I think that we will see, it's going to take some time, but I think we'll see a repaired relationship that will fall apart again eventually.

But I think it'll be repaired at least ever so briefly. I think it's one of those things that if this show didn't exist, it's like a double-edged sword. If the show didn't exist, you guys wouldn't be really coming back together at all. Correct. But because the show exists, you're coming back together. You'll work on things. Maybe you'll agree that the relationship and the marriage were a mistake and you want to try to get back to the ground level.

Try to work things out. Try to get back to, you know, whatever. There's money on the table at the end of the day. If there's money on the table that both of you could be making, you're going to figure out a way to make sure that you can get back to that. But again, you're on a reality TV show, so you're going to fall apart again eventually. Maybe in a season or two, I don't know what's going to happen. But that's how things work out. I imagine that's kind of in the future for them as a whole.

Yeah, I think you're on to it. It's going to be interesting to see for sure. First up, and we didn't do this, but from Janus Ingram 360, Persian version comes straight from Zach Peter. So apparently we stole that from Zach. Sorry, Zach, we didn't mean to. Had no idea. I didn't do anything.

Somebody commented that in our comments. I didn't do shit. I just read it. That's very fair, actually. Yeah. So we stole it from a fan who stole it from Zach. So it's not our fault, guys. From B. Reedy 13126.

Do you think Sky should have been upset at Gigi for lighting up in her backyard? Yeah. Realistically, not just, you know, blindly supporting Gigi. That's a crazy move to just lay up a joint in someone's backyard, unless you've done it before. And I don't get the vibe that she's ever done that before or given the okay before. So, yeah, that's a crazy move. I mean, at the very least, like you said, go for a stroll.

and rip your Jay out there. Don't walk in the backyard because there could be, not everyone's cool with it. You know, I could give a shit, but like, it's just a respect thing. Yeah,

that's addressed from Taye Ha Stettler. What I meant is there's not been a Potomac episode for two weeks. I don't, yeah, I post, I don't know what happens. So we're doing Sunday's episode tomorrow, and I'm just going to repost,

uh, last week's episode. So you get a little twofer on the Potomac front. I don't know. It was up for, at least a little while and it poof gone. I don't, shit happens sometimes. But it will be up tomorrow so you can catch you all the way up.

From Dr. Cards, why are Valley Persian-style married to medicine the best shows on right now? I do think that Valley Persian style is one of the better shows. It's one of the more ridiculous shows that we've seen. It's funny the way that you put this because we've been asked to do married to med for a very long time. Maybe it's time. the idea was so daunting because there's so much going on. And everything I've heard about Married to Med, everything I've seen,

is that it's just shockful of action. And there's so much going on with so much lore that we were afraid to jump in because we don't know the lore. And it's not like a housewife show where there's a couple of newbies and we can kind of figure things out as we go along. There's so much lore in that show that it would be really hard. It's the same feel as jumping into the first episode of Valley Persian style, where there is a lot of lore and we have to figure it out as we go and we're three episodes in

and still having a hard time remembering who's who. But maybe that's a sign. I don't know. It's definitely tough right now. I mean, this is not the season to do it, that's for sure. No, we need like a little downtime before we jump into that. We've got too many shows on right now,

but thought that could be like a, like a member's thing. We could do married to med on like a married to medicine ketchup and just have it exclusive. That might be a thing. If we can hire our Bravo lulls will be good. Yeah, we'll keep that one in the back pocket.

I like that idea. Last one, what do you think of Vita's basketball game? What a bucket. Yeah. That's a straight hooper. Just a straight hooper. But yeah, this show rocks. If you're not watching and you're listening still right now,

I don't know what you're doing. Go turn on Peacock and get to work because you don't want to fall behind on this. one. This one is, I'm pretty sure going to be here for a while. I said the same thing about the Valley. We were right. I said about Soho. We were right. Still believe in Vanderpump, even though a lot of people don't. This one is leaps and bounds above Vanderpup. And this one needs to be seen. So, absolutely. Anyway, that's all I got. You got anything else? Nope. Well, brah, bros are out of here. I remembered.
