Whoop, whew. Heather McDonald. Hello and welcome to Juicy Scoop. I'm going to go through all the topics, updates,
Starting point is 00:00:37 recaps, all the juicy stuff. I am going to be covering hunting wives on Netflix. I'm going to put that towards the end of the show. So if you don't want spoilers or whatever, but I need to discuss it because it's the number two show whatever. And it's crazy. But first I want to also tell you if you want more Heather in your lives. We have a special YouTube channel that is more lifestyle and there's two hilarious long videos on there. I want you to subscribe. I hope you're subscribing to this one and the links will be in the bios. So please like, share, do all that good stuff so that I can do more of these fun things for you here. Also, as you know, I will be November 14th in Vegas. Those tickets are at Heather MacDonald.net.
Starting point is 00:01:26 All that information and, of course, how to join Patreon and enjoy more juicy scoop on the three different levels that I have. Make sure you go to Heather MacDonald.net. Okay, let's get into it. A little update on the Denise Richards saga that is going on, which is her impending divorce, which just sounds like a horrible nightmare. There is still some controversy about this situation, but nothing's been like super reported. They're hearing about different things.
Starting point is 00:02:00 So these are rumors that one of the reasons why Denise went to the house that allegedly she owns and had it for years before she ever married Aaron. And they, according to people who watched the show, she said, this was our house. But since his parents needed a place to stay, they were supposed to stay three months. It's been three years. So the parents and the brothers were there conveniently to see and witness what they claim was erratic and scary behavior on Denise's part when she came to retrieve one of the dogs.
Starting point is 00:02:37 The rumors are the reason that she felt she had to go at that time and get her dog, though she went knowing that he was not there, Aaron. He's claiming he saw that she was coming and to avoid a violation of the restraining order, which she had put on him, which means she's not to be. come near him either. He went out the back door. And then he's the one who called the police to say that his parents were frightened of her. Is that allegedly she said he euthanized one of her dogs, or that's what people are saying. And that is why she wanted to go and get the other dog. I don't know that that's true. Other reports are saying that's not true. But it's awful. And it's awful if these people that are her ex-husbands to be parents who she claims is an abuser, he claims abuse on her side, cheating on her side, showing screen grabs.
Starting point is 00:03:34 He had taken her laptop and her phone, and she won on that in getting it back because she was afraid that he would be utilizing it. It's a really ugly, messy divorce. We know that she has filmed some with Real Housewives of Beverly. Hills we talked about in the last episode. So what a nightmare. You know, how do you get these people out of your house? If you're unaware, squatters have more rights than owners in a sense, especially in California. It's a very, very long process to get somebody out, whether you allowed them to stay and then they started getting mails sent to their, one of the things
Starting point is 00:04:17 that people do is if you ask, oh, would you like to stay here for a while? They immediately change their address to your address. And then when you try to get rid of them, they can show that, oh, look, I'm getting, I live here to the judge. I live here. So therefore, you know, they can't kick me out. And it just takes a long time. It can take as short as four months, as long as many years. But it takes a long time.

Searchlight Pictures presents The Roses, only in theaters August 29th. From the director of Meet the Parents and the writer of Poor Things comes The Roses, starring Academy Award winner Olivia Coleman, Academy Award nominee Benedict Cumberbatch, Andy Sandberg, Kate McKinnon, and Allison Janney. A hilarious new comedy filled with drama, excitement, and a little bit of hatred,
Starting point is 00:06:18 proving that marriage isn't always a bed of roses. See the roses only in theaters, August 29th. So I don't know where she is in the process of trying to get them out or because they're married somehow is this marital property that he can have his parents live in. I don't know. It just sounds like a mess, but it's very frustrating. I think to anybody that hears this story
Starting point is 00:06:44 to think that you've worked your whole life, if you had this house before you married this husband, he, you know, allegedly was abusive to you and horrible to you and to the point that you were so afraid that when you went on the reality show and this story gets out that you had a rendezvous with Brandy Glanville and she thought you guys had an open marriage and she is terrified. And that is why she got the cease and desist. She did not want that out on the show,
Starting point is 00:07:13 not because of I think she wouldn't care if she wasn't with Aaron. It was all out of fear of how Aaron would react and now it all makes so much sense and it is really terrible. So
Starting point is 00:07:29 that's where we are with that. I hope it's not true or I hope if something did happen with the dog it was medically you know recommended by a vet. I don't know. I don't know the story but this is all over the news.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Okay, let's talk about the Valley Reunion. Now, if you are not watching the Valley, I'm telling you, you're going to want to hear my thoughts on this. I watched it twice. I watched it last night, and then I watched the uncut version this morning on Peacock, because it was fascinating. You know, the word narcissistic, you're a narc,
Starting point is 00:08:11 your narcissism, larcissism. The word has become very, very popular in the last five years in podcasts and people claiming other people are that. And there's always a thing. Is it vanity? No, it's not vanity. It's specific traits. And some people can be on the spectrum and some people can have some. And some people, they hit every single one. In my opinion, I think Jacks Taylor has proven to hit every single one of the narcissistic traits in his behavior, how he views himself. And it was really quite fascinating on last night's episode and just heartbreaking. So as we know, Brittany and he have been together 10 years, married six, I think. They share a son who is four named Cruz. And what was really great is that you see Zach. Zach has been
Starting point is 00:09:09 Brittany's friend since they were like, you know, for 17 years and he's on the show. And he's very much not a fan of Jacks. He thinks he's a liar. He thinks he's an awful narcissistic person who's been abusive to his good friend, Brittany. So the two of them are really saying it. And she really has become so strong and so different when you watched how she would defend him all those years and Andy brings that up and she you know sitting there's like yeah because I have to put up with you for the rest of my life and you are like God you do have to put up with him for the rest of your life and it's amazing what he um admits to and she's like you pick fights with me and he's like I know I do pick fights with you why because sometimes I don't know I don't know
Starting point is 00:09:59 that I think we should break up but then other times I'm like maybe we shouldn't and she's like And that's messing with my heart. Like, why are you doing that? And he's like, I do blame you all the time. And I shouldn't. It's not your fault. But yes, I do. I do choose to blame you.
Starting point is 00:10:14 I do. And, you know, we always hear about narcissists who want to ruin the, if you're having a big day, if it's Christmas, if it's a big event for you and you're in a relationship with a hardcore narcissist, they'll set out that day to ruin it. And you kind of wonder, do, are they? conscious of doing this? Do they plan it out the night before? According to Jacks, which is kind of fascinating, he knows he's doing it. He knows he's doing it. He knows he's doing it for a reason. Zach pointed it out whenever, you know, Brittany has something great going on. He sets out
Starting point is 00:10:50 to destroy it, to break her spirit, all of it. And it's, it was just fascinating and like heartbreaking and really crazy to watch. And one thing that Zach, the friend, brought up, is that he always refers to Cruz as my son, my son, my son, my son, my son. Throughout the entire episode, and I can't say for the first part, because I didn't recently watch it, he always says my son, he doesn't say our son, and he doesn't call him by Cruz. And that's important because Britney says Cruz, Britney says our son. And according to people who study narcissism, that is a trait that people see their child, if they're a narcissistic parent, as an extension of themselves, a representative of themselves. So if they're doing great, they want to take,
Starting point is 00:11:40 you know, ownership of that. And if they're not, that's an issue. And it's, it was, it was shocking. Like, honestly, it was just, it was shocking. At least you have some notes on here because there was so much going on. So we see their thing going on. And, And the fact that then they get into the fact that Cruz has been diagnosed with autism. I thought that was handled very well. I knew this through when he was diagnosed. You know, I was talking to some of the members that are close fronts of hers, cast members. And they were also touched by her strength.
Starting point is 00:12:21 And she says, you know, it takes many, a period of time to find out what the diagnosis is. you don't want them to, a doctor, to diagnose something that they're not positive about it. And she went through all of that by herself while Jacks was in rehab. And she's like, it would have been great to have my partner there. I'm going to say, yes, if your partner wasn't Jacks. You know, this is a hard thing. And I know there's very high statistics of when, especially when it's a boy, is diagnosed with autism, the marriage does not last. It does not work out.
Starting point is 00:12:53 And the mother in 90%, 95% of the cases is the one who sticks by and is the caretaker. And they break up and the man might be an active participant, maybe not. I don't know. It's a very, very difficult thing. And I think when you think about Jacks and that this all happened, you know, they weren't sure about it. But I'm guessing, you know, they said probably for a year before they sought help. they probably both saw the signs and that was all happening while you know he's freaking out about the new valley show happening coming off the fact that he was fired from these you know
Starting point is 00:13:34 from the valley and she was making the money and it just was a perfect storm for a personality like jacks they get into the fact that he says yeah i love drugs and alcohol i love doing cocaine i've been amusing it for 20 years and jason janet's husband is like you you you You've got to realize if he's been doing cocaine for 20 years, just being off of it for six months is not going to, you know, it's going to take a while for it to get out of his system. Finishing up with Jackson, Brittany, it was really heartbreaking because you know she has real love for him. And, oh, this part was interesting. He, she said, he's like, I'm alone every night. I'm alone while you guys, you know, get to film and be with each other.
Starting point is 00:14:19 is basically what he's saying. I'm alone by myself every night. And she's like, then why are all these girls DMing me with screen grabs of you love bombing them and asking them to move in? He's like, I never asked anyone to move in. I believe he's a love bomber, which is also a sign of this personality,
Starting point is 00:14:35 especially with men. She's like, I was love bombed by you. And he said, oh, you were never my type. I was never your type. Now he's like victiming. I was never your type. Your friends told me, you, if you never met me, you would have married a doctor or an NBA player and lived in Kentucky.
Starting point is 00:14:53 She's like, those people are fans that DM'd you. They were not my friends. Like, why are you believing this random stuff? And what she said is what has been told to me from the moment I started watching this show and interviewing these people is that she is of extremely genuine person. She did not seek out to go on Vaynerpump. she was at a bar in Vegas and he approached her and pursued her and everything and every single person co-signs on that story and and this is her life now and this is how she provides for Cruz her son and she finds herself in this predicament with this guy and it's a nightmare and she said you said
Starting point is 00:15:41 Jackson that I ruined your life because you know because you had to go to rehab you blamed me for you having you go to rehab and therefore not being able to film and being in this position when what was she supposed to do he showed abusive behavior they talk about him pushing her
Starting point is 00:15:59 in the rose bush which you saw in the last episode where she had I guess ring camera footage of it she has shared it with at least a few people in the cast and they were not in their head. I don't know where that footage is now. I'm assuming she showed it to the producers or they heard the, that, you know, what the other people saw. I've also read that she, in fact, then deleted it
Starting point is 00:16:22 after, which I could see that happening too. This is the father of a child. This is someone that she clearly still, she says, it is very hard. It's much easier to leave when you're done. I wasn't done. I was forced to leave a person I loved. You forced me to leave. And, And that was just heartbreaking. And then Andy says, do you still love Brittany? And he wouldn't answer. And Kristen was so sweet. She's like, I think you do.
Starting point is 00:16:50 I know I would if I were you. And he's like, I don't want to answer this. I don't want to answer this. And she's like, well, you never fought for me. You never fought for me. And it, I mean, it was fascinating. It was really real. I know some people are going to say it's dark.
Starting point is 00:17:06 It's probably triggering if you've been in a relationship with a guy like this. If you're going through a custody battle, if you're a young mom, I can imagine. But I just really appreciated the realness on all of it. I can see why he's not coming back to the show as of now and, you know, everything that's going on. But I also want to say that she is such a grateful person and she's like, you know, I've put on this earth to be Cruz's mom. And I'm happy to share about the autism because I believe I'm helping so many people. not be in denial, get the, you know, the pre-kindergarten help that you need, one there for the speech therapy and all that stuff. And she really has, you know, used her platform in such a positive way.
Starting point is 00:17:52 But I also want to say that I think that Cruz's diagnosis is the reason that she's out of this relationship. And for all the reasons, his reaction, his knowing that she's do better for her son, knowing that her son needs to have a calm, safe area. I think if maybe that wasn't the case with her child, she probably would have had another child with him. And she probably would have kept with this denial and putting herself last on the list. And so that was very exciting. The rest of the episode was really good, too. It's very strange how they still are bringing up the fact that, you know, they believe that Danny has an alcohol problem.
Starting point is 00:18:39 And one thing that was interesting is he's like, Danny goes, Jacks, I don't know why you came after me. And I think he was, you know, really putting what he was going through. He wanted to, like, shove it on someone else. And I think he was jealous of Nia and Danny's perfect life with their family. And they're both so attractive. and they have such a loving marriage. And so he has an issue with alcohol.
Starting point is 00:19:01 He does. He gets blackout drunk. He says that. Whatever happens, whether he inadvertently jocantly grabs someone who's not his wife and she feels uncomfortable, that's bad. Or if he doesn't remember and he didn't do it and he still comes home and passes out, that's bad.
Starting point is 00:19:17 So that's all been exposed. And of course, you know, they're together and they're defending themselves, but they're also not, you know, saying that this didn't happen. But he was like, why did you do this, Jackson? Why? And Jacks is like, I don't know why. You were the nicest best friends I had in this whole group. You were wonderful to me. And I, you know, was an awful person. And I don't blame you if you never want to be my friend again. I mean, it was really, it was really interesting to watch. And with that, with that whole thing with Janet and Jason and how drunk or ill-behaved Danny was, that just continues. on, and I kind of feel the audience has sort of split on it. I sort of see both sides. I think this really all did happen. However, to an audience member, it seems like you're beating a dead horse.
Starting point is 00:20:08 And so it's a whole thing. And then Michelle and Jesse talk about their marriage and if she, in fact, cheated. And she said, I know that you brought this all up on camera and put out this dumb rumor that you knew was fake, that I was a $1,500 a night prostitute so that the audience and the public would turn on me. And he basically admitted that too, which is pretty sick, being that they also share a child and are married. And then according to the internet, the boyfriend that she had on the show, Aaron, who does the honey and has the big eyes, they're not following each other. And on ex-girlfriend day, he did a thirst trap.
Starting point is 00:20:55 and his body does look amazing and he's looking down at his camera so the googly eyes aren't there and it says staying strong ain't easy so she's going to do just fine in life too I don't think we need this thirst bucket to see any more of him
Starting point is 00:21:10 this is Trixie Mattel co-host of the Bald and the Beautiful podcast lover of wigs, winged eyeliner and one-click ordering with Amazon Prime and I'm Katia podcast co-host celebrated gymnast of the mind and compulsive curator of very specific interests.

But on the good news, Brittany just posted this before I, Brittany of the Valley just posted this before I sat down to record. She said, so I did a thing. Watch me get my ass kicked on season four of Special Forces Fox. So some of the people that I do know, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:43 this is all reality stars. So a couple of these people I don't really know. but the ones of interest besides Brittany is Cody from Sister Wives. Oh, my God. This is going to be amazing. And, you know, if you haven't watched Special Forces, it's my worst nightmare. It's very physical. It's literally like training to be a Navy SEAL.
Starting point is 00:24:02 But to make it juicy, it's not just them doing physical work. It's them working together, them bonding. But also then they go in and they speak to these people who were special forces that kind of break down, Tom Sanival was on it last year, break down what they were going through. So if you're familiar with these characters or you follow their lives or you listen to Juicy Scoop,
Starting point is 00:24:24 there are some really great scenes where they are really breaking down and kind of sharing things that they never have on the show. So that's also why it's really juicy. But it's very physically difficult. And some people, you know, get dropped or whatever the first day.
Starting point is 00:24:41 But who's in it besides Britney and Cody is Teresa and G. mother and daughter that could be fun Eva from Real House of Atlanta since she's not been on Atlanta she's been on so many different shows she's stunning and fun to watch Jesse Smollett
Starting point is 00:25:00 oh my God so I mean what is the car is this going to come out just small out as you know is the one that you know made up the story according to a court of law and police that when he, at 2.30 in the morning, he went down to go get a subway sandwich and two
Starting point is 00:25:21 masks men wearing MAGA hats, you know, attacked him and put a noose around his neck and did this whole horrible racist thing. It turned out they were two men. He knew he paid them to do this, to set this up for, to be a victim, to publicize himself to, it was just, and it was an awful time for it to happen in history. It was something we all did not need. So, I mean, we knew this was coming. We knew his career wasn't going to be done. I don't know why Sherri Papini is not on here, but she'll probably be on next with Jesse. Okay, let's see. There's this girl named Jesse, who's a singer. I don't know her. Eric is an NFL player. Randall's an NFL player, so, I mean, they're going to do great in the physical stuff. Sean,
Starting point is 00:26:13 I forgot her last one, but she's the Olympic gymnast, so she'll do great. Let me see who else I know. Oh, Brianna Chicken Fry, that was the one, the girl that has a very popular podcast and personality who fell in love with the Zach Bryan. I always mix all the country people about, but Zach Brian was a blonde hairy. It looked like a blonde Lego, too. And he cheated on her and treated her and treated her horribly, and she exposed the whole thing on her show and on so. social media, and I think there's still some drama going on with the two of them, but that's pretty juicy.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Oh, Ravi, he's an actor. You'd recognize him from a lot of shows. So, I mean, about half are professional athletes. There's a female soccer player, football players, and then the other half are reality show people. So it'll be very interesting. You know, I have never watched a whole season all the way through. So I'm definitely going to start watching this.
Starting point is 00:27:17 And I think it's going to be fantastic for Brittany and hopefully she stays longer than, you know, one night. Okay. Also in reality show news, I said you talked a lot about this on the show. This is very interesting. As we know, Teddy Mellencamp from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and John Mellonkamp's daughter and she's podcaster has been. battling first skin cancer and then brain cancer. I don't know if it's brain cancer, but tumors, everything. So she, you know, is recovering from her surgery of that and, you know, being very open on her
Starting point is 00:27:57 own show and whatnot about what she went through. Prior to between being cancer free from the skin cancer and this later, latest battle with the brain, it all, the news broke that she. while she was married to Eddie, sorry, Edwin, whom she shares three children with, she had an affair with a also married horse trainer. She's always been into horses and she's an equestrian and I believe her kids are involved in doing equestrian stuff too as well.
Starting point is 00:28:32 And this guy was married. He had, I think, a couple kids and one on the way and they were all part of this equestrian life. and so it was really quite shocking and people talked about it being that you know she's an accountability coach and this and that and that when we saw her on real housewise of Beverly Hills she was the one calling out Lisa Vanderpump for the whole dog puppy gate thing she was the one that was calling out Denise Richards for allegedly having a rendezvous with Brandy Glan and trying to deny it and she's always like holding people to the flame and what she reveals in this latest interview
Starting point is 00:29:18 and you know it's really heartbreaking because she's you know you can tell she's suffering in in this battle that she's in is that right after she accepted that she would
Starting point is 00:29:32 be on Real House House of Beverly Hills fun chapter with her life she has her I think two kids at that time with Edwin and a stepdaughter. She's agreed to go on the show. They're all ready to go on the show. It gets revealed that he has had an affair with a woman that was, that she considered a friend. They were, she knew who she was. And the way she found out is the woman called her and told her. And it appears from what I've seen from the interview is that this woman was like
Starting point is 00:30:06 blackmailing her. And she said for not even a lot of money, like, you know, this will get out just as you're going to become a public person on one of the biggest reality shows, Real Housewives Beverly Hills. So, you know, she, I don't know how they settled it with this woman, who the woman is,
Starting point is 00:30:27 but they decided to stay together. She said she had to beg for him to stay with her, which was weird. But they stayed together and they went on the show. And as an audience member, we thought they had a great marriage and she said that's why when people see her now and they watch old episodes they're like it's like two different people and I think it's because she was kind of acting and she was going through all that and it's very interesting because she's like
Starting point is 00:30:56 you know you think you can get over it maybe I never did and maybe that's why then the cheating went in reverse and I sought out this this other person and had this illicit fare with the horse training guy and it was very sad and she's like you know nobody sets out to hurt multiple people when you have an affair but inevitably when you have an affair
Starting point is 00:31:19 and you're married and the person is married it's it's quadruple it's and then you have kids and it's a ripple ripple ripple effect and it was pretty fascinating to see her you know say all that
Starting point is 00:31:31 and take and take that kind of you know responsibility as as one should and um so it was very it was very sad and then she said and i wondered by having this affair with this married man while i was married um creating this ultimate pain for so many people the kids everybody was this the catalyst like was god punishing me and causing me to get sick again and which is very very heartbreaking but you you can't blame someone in her position to think that you're always you know, whenever something bad happens to you, you're like, why me? And if you had this thing that you had, that you know was wrong and, and you felt guilt about, it was horrible. So she
Starting point is 00:32:17 says it all. And, um, and so, you know, a lot of the clips of, you know, are going around. And I, and it was very interesting and very sad. But, um, and then it makes you think about, you know, Sheena, who is going back on the valley. I think that's, there's, I don't know if it's a 100%, but the son is reporting, other people reporting it. And we're going to see how her life is now that the Band-Aid has been ripped off the affair that Brock had while she was pregnant with their daughter, with this woman. And it wasn't a one-night stand. And it was in the way she explains that in her book is that, you know, he was doing self-destructive behavior
Starting point is 00:32:58 by being with another woman because he didn't think he deserved this great life of having I guess I could chance at fatherhood and he apologized to her and he's written. And so we're going to see. I mean, we didn't get to see it with them. That was not something that was shared when she came on the show. And I don't blame her. If nobody knew, why would you share it right when you come on the show? But it is very similar.
Starting point is 00:33:23 Like now when people look back on old episodes of Vanderpump Rules and you see how Sheena's reacting to Tom Sandoval and the cheating and everything knowing now we know that she was carrying this of discovering that Brock did that to her and the discovery came
Starting point is 00:33:46 while the whole Tom Sandoval Scandiball Scandiball Arana thing was going on so you know as someone that like is I think the most fascinating thing why I'm entertained by reality TV and why I talk about it on this show is because it always
Starting point is 00:34:02 it relates to our lives as women as mothers and these are two stories that are very relatable and juicy and whether you've been you know a cheater or been cheated on or you obviously know somebody and you you know and you knew that it happened and some of those and sometimes your friend does stay with the person and then your friendship is never the same because you just can't look at their husband the way you did prior to knowing and you're like And then they're embarrassed that they shared that with you. Now, exemplify that by millions and millions of people because you're on a reality show. So, you know, very, very sad.
Starting point is 00:34:44 And we hope that she gets better. Also, it's a fun summer in the Hamptons. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are filming there. And it's really kind of interesting to read the comments and stuff of how the Hamptons has just become, according to people, not what it used to be, you know. I feel like we've been hearing about the Hamptons for 20 plus years in the pop culture zeitgeist. I mean, the reason that white chicks, one of the reasons that they came up with the idea of white chicks is because they would see these stories about the Hamptons, you know, in page six and the post. And of course, it was modeled after the wildlife that Paris and Nikki Hilton were leaning.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Those were the Wilson sisters. and, you know, and then the Hamptons and all this. And I remember when I was working on white chicks with the Waynes brothers, they said, here, watch this show, which was like a one or two, I think it was a one season show that was on TV about a summer in the Hamptons where it was summer house before summer house. And it was, you know, this one girl, she's publicist, the whole thing and her friends. And it was done, you know, right before we wrote the movie. So like early, like 2000, 2001, I think prior to 9-11 when this show came out. And, you know, they would leave New York City on a Thursday afternoon and try to get out to the city and the parties and this.
Starting point is 00:36:20 And it was like, oh, my God, what is this? I was the first time I ever even really knew about it. I had an aunt that lived in Sag Harbor that I had visited one. and I was supposed to go visit with Peter, but then the trip got changed, the whole other story. But anyway, I had never really experienced it. And so you're always like, what are these parties like? What is this?
Starting point is 00:36:39 And now with social media and these reality shows, it's like so many people go there and you can't get into the cool restaurants that once were. It's become very crowded and busy, and all these shows are filming there. And I just wonder if you're someone that just was going there with your rich family all these years, How do you feel about it?
Starting point is 00:37:00 Or maybe you're like, I don't care. I don't need to go to those crap restaurants ever. I just stay in my, you know, $50 million house. I don't know. It's very interesting. But I think it's fun when these shows go and I'm excited to see them in the Hamptons. I feel like we haven't really seen the Beverly Hills girls be there. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:17 I am not that familiar with Hulk Hogan. Hogan knows best his whole life. He did just pass. and he, but there's some interesting stuff in here about his daughter Brooke and his life. So Hulk Hogan, for those that are like, yeah, what is the deal with this guy? He was this larger than life character in worldwide world, in the world wrestling world, okay? Which I never watched. I never was into.
Starting point is 00:37:48 We know it was fake, whatever. So in the earlier days of reality TV, kind of around the Osbournes, it was Hogan, Hogan knows best and it was he and his blonde wife and their two teenage kids who are they're all four blondes like tam living in florida or something and brook was a teenage daughter and she you know like most reality stars gets into singing a little bit whatever and the show ends and right after that he and his wife that he had forever got divorced and according to her it was he was a serial cheater and then there was this sex tape scandal that was so crazy where he was having sex with someone he knew he knew her because it was his ex-wife's friend i don't know that the storyline of all this
Starting point is 00:38:42 because it's just too much and somehow gocker like showed some of it on their site and then he sued and he won and for privacy violation they settled at like 31 million and it was a big mess then he was recorded saying racist things about Brooke and her boyfriend or something she stopped contact with him and also her mother Linda which is interesting and then he married someone else then they got divorced and then he was his last wife he according to brook in her latest interview was a scientologist and he said to her i don't want to marry her and she's like okay well then don't and they did get married and she even brook went and talked to mike um reinder he has since passed but he was the one that was doing all the scientology um shows he and lea remnant
Starting point is 00:39:47 were ex-scientologists and she even sought his counsel like how concerned should I be if my dad marries this woman and um so they were always like not they were not in a good place he gets married and she did not attend his wedding brook and then when she got married i think it was before he got married the third time she asked him you know can you come to my wedding can you walk me down the aisle and he's just like no i don't do um i don't do weddings or funerals and i'm not getting off the beach to go to your wedding i'm very strange and very juicy you know every family has their own weird dynamics and she said i still loved my dad and that's why we still were having contact so he didn't go to her wedding she didn't go to his she also did not attend his funeral
Starting point is 00:40:42 she also asked to be removed from the will which is very interesting and she said i didn't want to fight with linda and she called her own mom that's her mom linda and linda's like i don't know why brook cut me out when she cut her dad out since we weren't together and um now she wants to like you know get on with her life get back into music we haven't really heard or seen much from her um besides this interview that she did with a friend of hers but i i did not I never really followed this world because I was like I wasn't a fan of the show I didn't really get it I you know I didn't really like his persona and then you know it was a cheater and you know said these horrible racist things and you know then wrote the
Starting point is 00:41:26 stupid apology this isn't me this isn't who I am okay but still you said it's on camera it gross but I really feel for her as a daughter you know you got you had this famous dad again she was put on a reality show as a teenager do they Can a teenager really say, give consent? Does anyone really know what that was like? Seems like she's doing great now. She's like married with kids. But fascinating. And I definitely want to see what she'll do. And I find it very interesting. So Brooke, Hogan, please come on my show. I want to ask so many more questions about your life. This summer, don't let thinning hair hold you back.

That, again, rumors whatever are that there was going to be a financial
Starting point is 00:46:00 bonus, allegedly, for maybe Sarah Jessica Parker, if it was doing, if the ratings were doing better. And they weren't. So that's one thing I heard that that's why it ended. The other was in research people have done that it was the first time she was hearing like really negative things about her looks. I disagree with that. Because when Sex and City was so popular, there was so many mean, jokey things done, you know, saying that she looked like a witch and she had the mole and all of this and why do people think she's hot? So I think she's very used to the criticism about her unique looks and I love her looks. I think she looks great in this, particularly in this season. I think she even looks prettier.
Starting point is 00:46:48 But it's not odd that certain actors don't ever watch themselves and she has said, I don't watch the show. But one of the other things someone said of why they felt the show was falling flat and very disappointing, along with all the other reasons I've said, is that in the old show, Sex and City, we saw a lot of them together, the four girls together, doing things together, going out to dinner, being at night clubs, doing things. And then we would just see small glimpses of Charlotte on a bad date, a quick glimpse of, you know, Samantha being like, hmm, you've got some funky tasting spunk. and then we'd see them at the tiger talking about it. And I realized that when this person brought that up, I'm like, you're right. We had all these new characters and we just did not see them doing that much together. Now, taking the character, Samantha out of it, made that dynamic.
Starting point is 00:47:43 But I think that was a mistake. Now, that could have been done where no one thought about it. It could have been done because it's a budget issue and, you know, getting everybody together at certain times, were able to film maybe certain things at the same time. I don't know. But it was another reason why the show failed. So we have two more episodes.
Starting point is 00:48:06 I told you what I want the ending to be. I will be talking about the episode for sure on next week and on Patreon, of course, over the weekend. Because I just have to see if anything I'm going to say is going to predict or I'll do it on my. I hope hopefully I do these videos. I'll do a recap on my Instagram and TikTok, which is at Heather McDonald's, so just watch because I can't help myself.
Starting point is 00:48:33 But also very interesting is, and then we're going to move on for sexism, and just like that, but this pretty blonde girl who had a funny part, and I thought it was the best storyline of the whole season, which is Brady, Miranda,
Starting point is 00:48:50 and Steve's son reveals that he got a girl, that he barely knows pregnant. And Miranda goes to, goes incognito as just a customer wanting to get her hair washed by this young girl. And it's a, it's a good scene. It's a funny scene. That girl is Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor's daughter, the girl playing the mother to Brady's child, which is really interesting if, for those of us that are fans, is because Ben Stiller's mother played Brady's grandmother, Steve's mother, was Anne Muren, who was a famous, you know, a comedic, his parents, Ben Stiller's parents were like the funniest couple ever.
Starting point is 00:49:41 And both of them were just famous and they were a famous couple, a famous funny couple together. And I believe his dad's Jewish and she's Irish Catholic and they were just like always in movies together and did funny things together. So they produced Ben Stiller. And so he was the first, like, funny Nepo baby. Like, when I was to be seeing his MTV show, I was like, oh, my God. And my mom would be like, all his parents are both, like,
Starting point is 00:50:03 hilarious actors. And then he married a very funny actress, Christine Taylor, who was one of the funniest parts which she played Marcia in the Brady Bunch remake movies. And she's been in lots of things. And they're still together, though, they did have, like,
Starting point is 00:50:19 they did file for divorce and they got back together, there's nothing I love more than when a couple breaks up and then they get back together after their kids move out because it's like can't you always say it's not your fault that we're breaking up and it's like kids well maybe it was because now you're gone and we're back together you know it's like maybe it was it was we always loved each other was just those awful roommates we had all those years you know anyway so they're on the red carpet with her
Starting point is 00:50:45 and that is fun and juicy and a hilarious little like Easter egg. I will give the casting people props for that because, of course, you know, her, this actress's grandmother is playing his grandmother in the show and they have a baby together. And the whole thing is just, that part is cool. It's confusing, but it's cool
Starting point is 00:51:11 and something I didn't know when I watched it, but I did think she was a good actress. Sydney Sweeney's cousin, a little update on the gene controversy, she dropped a song about blue jeans. And her name is, well, her Instagram is Ash Ruder. I think her name is Ashley Ruter. And she's blonde and cute. And so, you know, way to capitalize on the cousin. And you should.
Starting point is 00:51:42 And it was a good song. She's a cute girl. And she can sing. Justin Timberlake last week revealed that he has Lyme disease And this comes after he's on this world tour And there was a lot of videos of him doing that thing That sometimes performers do And you can do it a little bit, but you can't do it every song
Starting point is 00:52:04 And according to the viral videos, he was doing a lot of it Where she's like, you sing it And I got this going up Sing it. And he wasn't really singing and he wasn't really dancing. And it was like, what is going on? So got a lot of criticism for that. People are paying all this money and we don't need the whole crowd singing the song. Like we want to hear you sing it. So I'm not doubting that he has Lyme disease. I am not going to pull Elisa Rina with, you know, have you heard of Munchausen by proxy? I think Yolanda has it with her Lyme disease.
Starting point is 00:52:43 where she was accused of, you know, creating this. But I do think it's smart that he revealed it because if that is the case, we know it's one of those diseases that makes you very tired, low energy, hard to manage. It's still a lot of things I don't understand. I don't know if you ever truly cured from it
Starting point is 00:53:08 or if you've, like, bouts of it. but it makes sense now. Epstein Island is being transformed into a luxury resort. I knew about this about a year ago because I was hanging out with Luann and Luann has this friend who is, it's her husband, who's this big financier like investment person, had bought the island a couple years ago. and so I knew they were going to make it a resort and it's going to be very expensive and there's only it's it's going to be like 35 rooms and I'm sure each room will you know be thousands of dollars a night and you know it's just off the those other islands so it's like you you could you know so it's not it's not that hard to get to and you don't necessarily need a a private plane to get there you can
Starting point is 00:54:08 take a boat from like st thomas or whatever and it's only it's not that far um am i surprised no i'm not because i told you i knew and i knew this would happen even before i had the info and i think he bought it this guy bought it for 60 million dollars and yes people will go people will absolutely go and um maybe they won't post about it maybe they will maybe in in a few years when it's ready to go, nobody will care. Will people turn it down? Did anyone turn down his invitations when they were invited before? Because even after he was convicted of the crimes and did the weekends at the Miami prison or whatever, people were still going to his dinner parties.
Starting point is 00:55:00 There's an infamous dinner party that happened at his townhome after he did prison time for having those young girls at his place in which you know he trafficked after they he got that easy sentence he went back and had these parties where you know people went from Chelsea Haler to Woody Allen to you know Katie Kirk I don't know they all they got invited to dinner and people were like I guess I'll go to this dinner and you don't you know doesn't mean they did anything but they were there like it's just weird so yes it's a beautiful spot I've been on a you know a gone around it on a boat. We had, we're on a catamaran visiting that time, um, a Christmas two or go and saw all, went all around it, looked at it, took photos of it and beautiful beaches,
Starting point is 00:55:51 several of them. Yes, this is not surprised. And who knows what's going on with the list and all that. I'm following it. But right now, there seems to be no definitive information, except that Gislane has moved to the same prison, much nicer, much better conditions is my understanding, with Elizabeth Holmes one drop, blood. I could find out that who has cancer in my family, her and, of course, Jen Shaw. So they're having the time of their lives. Carol Radswell, who has been on juicy scoop several times, who I really adore, she made a surprise appearance on Watch What Happens Live.
Starting point is 00:56:37 And it was like, the war is over. She and Andy are friendly. And if you're a fan of, you skip what you are because you're listening to this. She's been on many times and been very candid about, you know, my favorite scene ever in a reunion is when she had a tough season with Bethany. And Bethany was just on her ass because I think Bethany. just decided she was going to make her an enemy and felt a little rejected by her. And Carol was like being gaslit the whole season and was like, what is going on? And that's when they would do those blogs and they had to like write the blogs. And of course, Carol is an accomplished writer. She's
Starting point is 00:57:17 two bestselling books. She was a journalist. And her blogs were really good. And so they would watch the episode and then they'd have to write this blog, which they don't do anymore because all the bloggers do it for us and we have a podcast now, but this is, you know, 10 years ago. And And she says to Andy, oh, what, are you afraid of her too, of Bethany, too? And Andy goes, yeah, I'm afraid of her. And it was just this moment that I always felt that he was like, we're done. Then they never really talked again. And, but now she came on the show. And it was a great exchange. She did a Ramona impression, which, you know, I am the queen of the Ramona impressions. I think maybe I inspired it. But, She did great and, you know, it was, it was funny. And then, of course, people did in the people, the bloggers that I follow was like, why doesn't anyone ask about the fact that her photo, her author photo that was on the back of her book was taken by Gislaid Maxwell. And why doesn't anyone ask her about that?
Starting point is 00:58:29 Someone said, I'm like, well, if you listen to Juicy Scoop, I did ask her. the first time I ever had her, I asked her. And she talked about how she met her in the New York world. And shortly after her husband died of cancer, Carol didn't want to be in New York as a widow, a young widow. And Gislayne, who was like a friendly acquaintance, was like, well, are you there alone? I would like you to meet my friend. He'd love to take you out. And her friend was Prince Andrew. And Prince Andrew picked up Carol and they, he took her to like a ballet or something. There wasn't any romance. There wasn't an attraction. But she did set that up. And she had no idea the connection or anything that was going on at that time. And so yes, there are photos,
Starting point is 00:59:25 you know, just because you're in a photo with somebody doesn't mean that you went to the island and like did sick shit with people so but um so yeah like no i'm sure she doesn't want to talk about now and it keeps coming up but the truth is is like i believe i believe her and that was the story that was told on my show that i believe that makes sense that i thought was juicy and interesting and she's never hidden the fact that there is this going around that she was the one who took the photo and it was the best photo that she had and she gave her credit crazy but I mean I'd love to see Carol back on TV she's so witty and smart and funny I also think it's interesting that she and Andy were friends prior to her getting on the show and then Andy kind of made like a blanket rule for himself like I'm not going to do social one-on-one things with or even invite one housewife to my Christmas party or holiday party like I did Carol prior to her being on the show because then it wouldn't it would be like a favoritism thing.
Starting point is 01:00:32 It's like he's the teacher and, you know, and I agree with that. You know, oh, you know what? I did have a, hey, teacher slash director at the grindlings where I do my sketch comedy. And, you know, you're always begging to have that director pick your comedic scenes so that you could have as many sketches and be in as many things as possible. And it was really up to her.
Starting point is 01:00:57 And, you know, you'd hope that it was objective, but it's how still is subjective because she wants to put the funniest show together and that she didn't have favorites but I remember this one girl was babysitting for her all the time that is the one girl
Starting point is 01:01:11 that if you remember the story was the one that they in the history of the ground if they had to kick out because she was a huge issue for the company anyway so I don't believe that you should have that type of situation
Starting point is 01:01:26 so I don't know if they'll be friendly now that she's not on the show and they can like hang out or if they'll keep their distance or sometimes when you just get older you're just like who cares i don't even know why we're mad at each other or not what she said she goes i ran into romona had a you know fun exchange ran into luan this past weekend louan romona and um jill's there and played tennis together i'm telling you you guys i am manifesting this for you for me for everyone that watches bravo a show with these women and I'd love for Carol to also get in the mix the four of them plus
Starting point is 01:02:11 um I will take a Kelly Bessamone I will take an Alex McCord I will take a Derinda um my God who else I don't know we got to we got to do this show either in New York or in South Beach or Boca or something but I feel like there is something of brewing and the stars are aligning and this was just one of those stars that got in the line
Starting point is 01:02:39 of having her come back on Watch Adams Live but I loved it. Also on Watcherbms Live it was very interesting because we had Kim Zolziak on and Andy asked about the money that she used
Starting point is 01:02:53 of her daughters so Ariana and Briel are her adult daughters and you know we saw them on the show growing up we know that kim and kroy are getting divorced i saw something where he has like a regular job now i don't know some kind of sales construction type of thing so he's trying to make some money they still have four minor children together and and you know in the gen z show um her daughter ariana says is that Ariana? Yeah, I think it's Orion. Says, yeah, she took all my money that I made on brand deals
Starting point is 01:03:34 since, you know, since I was getting brand deals as a teenager. And I don't know where it went. And what happened? And she's like, well, you know what? We needed the money. Like, I needed the money and that's that. And I love the honesty. They, listen, the girl wouldn't have this career without her mom, but at the same time, she wouldn't have this career if her mom hadn't put her on TV. But she was a single mom at the time. And the girls seem to be doing well now and they seem to really like to be on TV. And she's like the most well-liked person on this new show next generation or next, what is it? Gen Z. Next Gen Z. No, it's next. It's next Jen, New York City or something. Anyway, so
Starting point is 01:04:26 but called her out on it and I thought, I thought it was really interesting. And they showed her walking up the stairs because she's still scared or has a phobia about elevators. And I remember when I was so excited to get my interview with her when she was with Croy and Briel came and she had a very tight window to do my show before she had to get on a plane. So I rented a hotel room at in, you know, on Wilshire Boulevard so she could go do it. We set it all up. And then she was like, oh, girl, I don't do elevators. And it was on the ninth floor. And I said, is there any way you can walk up her? And she's like, no, I'm too tired. And I was like, oh, my God. So we had to set it all downstairs. We had to ask them, do you have like a conference room down here? We set it all up.
Starting point is 01:05:20 and um and then she she came on the show but i mean what she still is going up those stairs maybe that's why her body looks good this is interesting playboy relaunches its playmate playmate of the month competition with judges including shanna mokler playboy is the magazine is no longer except they do one issue a year but now according to page six there is talks that they are going to do a playmate competition show with a TV show about it, looking for the next playmate. I believe this show will be greenlit. I totally, it's so interesting.
Starting point is 01:06:06 I feel like there's this whole movement of kind of the early 2000s with the ads that we're seeing, with the nostalgia of these type of reality shows. and now even Playboy being that, you know, Hugh is gone and if maybe it's run by girls and it's done more less sexually and more like, really you're the girl next door, but you're like, you know, posing. I don't know. I could see it being, you know, sort of like a Tyra Banks type of show where you have competition, where you have the people like a Shannon Mokler saying why you would, why you would be a great playmate and what the playmate of yesteryear was that you still need to have those qualities that make a guy think that you would
Starting point is 01:06:53 actually really like them and that you're attainable but you're still so gorgeous and so naturally pretty the girl next door um getting the cover the shoots what goes into that and then it might lead into you know all getting in a house and the dynamics of you know alliances and true friends and jealousy and all of that and you know a lot of girls would want to do it today and they are fascinated by the show the girls next door and being that you can see all these things like on peacock and young people are watching those shows from almost 20 years ago so I think that's going to absolutely happen also little update on the Karen Reid the turtle boy guy that really broke open all the info of what was going on in this case and made many more people
Starting point is 01:07:46 than just like tight Bostonians aware of it. He is still, you know, sharing a lot of information. And he just did an interview and he said, according to him, that they are getting ready to sue the police department, Karen Reed and her attorney, for the way they collected the evidence and what happened. So that's juicy. Also, there's a photo going around with this guy and Ben Affleck. As you know, Ben Affleck is from Boston, and so I believe whatever movies are going to be done about this, because we know there is, or limited series or whatever, it appears Ben Affleck is going to be involved.
Starting point is 01:08:33 I don't know that he would be playing the role, but he could certainly play the role of the attorney if you wanted to, her attorney, which I think would be a perfect role for him. Of course, we are, you know, rooting for Drea D. Mateo for to be playing Karen Reid, though there's so many others we've talked about that. But hopefully you have a role and not just be producing and directing it, Ben Affleck. Okay. Kim Kardashian has introduced a new line of skims. It is already sold out. And it's the skims material. and it goes around your face
Starting point is 01:09:14 like what people use after a facelift and it is sold out and comes in all the different skin colors and you're to wear that at night and it's getting a lot of it's not actually getting that much controversy but it's getting some
Starting point is 01:09:31 and I wanted to share so Tovalay who was on my show and she's got a great Instagram and she's an author wrote it's a compression wrap for your face designed to sculpt your jawline while you sleep made from shape or fabric worn like a muzzle sold as empowerment marketed as self-love but built in the belief that you're not even allowed to relax without fixing something i thought that was
Starting point is 01:10:02 really interesting and it's true i don't blame kim for doing this i can see why someone would think it might work and maybe people will say yeah I mean I've seen other versions of this on TikTok where people are like I wear this chin strap mask and now look how tight my neck is and and it's all about the jaw line like that's been the new like people are moved away from the lips it's all about the jaw line and there's exercise guys are doing to like get a better jaw line and things like this but I was like God you're right like the even the sleeping now there's like mouth taping and you know all these do and you're like god you're you know you're right like why can't i just sleep and that a young girl would now be wearing this so but like i said it's
Starting point is 01:10:51 sold out because you could see why someone's like sure i'll do it like if i could look better when i wake up but i thought her point of like we can't even have eight hours of sleep without thinking about trying to look cuter so this doctor uh talked about it and he said that according to him and it's Dr. Jalvu Mabadi he said it is not good for you
Starting point is 01:11:20 according to him he does not he does he thinks it's actually bad that it could actually hurt your situation and the only people that should be wearing it is people that actually has had a facelift and we wear it temporarily after and that without it It's like, it's, it's, um, the whole point is puffiness and stuff comes from your lymph noids and
Starting point is 01:11:44 that's why people do the lymphatic massages. And it's actually, you know, supposed to be draining, going down and doing massages to drain it down. That's how you like snatch your face. And you see a lot of those kind of little massage things that people do. And so this is actually the opposite of doing that. So according to him, I don't know. Let me know what you think. Little update on Brandy Glanville's Nair situation. So she put Nair on her face. And a lot of people were concerned. She said, oh, it works just like a chemical peel. Her face was very red. She talked about the parasite that's still moving around in it. And then she posted, I would like to say none of this is Nair's fault. I misused it and got the one for my body, for the body, and actually the, I think she misspelled it, she goes, actually the skin on my body has never been so soft.
Starting point is 01:12:41 I don't know if she's, I'm telling you guys, I just think she's joking and liking that we're talking about her again. I don't, I don't know how she is mentally. Hopefully she's fine and this is just like a fun thing she's doing to get us to talk about her. I don't know. But
Starting point is 01:12:59 according to her, she still has a parasite from Morocco. Okay, so now I'm going to get into hunting wives. Let me tell you about this show. Let's get into it. So it is great fun. It is great fun. It's not the best show. There's a lot of dumb things that are frustrating. So I'm going to tell you about it best as I can. And there's probably going to be some spoilers. So if you want to check out now, fine. But here we go. So my friend tells me you got to watch hunting-wise. I'm like, is it reality you're scripted?
Starting point is 01:13:34 It's scripted. Okay, great. Starts out, I'm totally into it. This girl, Britney Snow comes and she and her husband moved to Texas from Boston. And they have a little boy and they go to his boss's big Texan mansion. And she meets this girl who is, what is her name? Hold on one second. Her name is Malin Ackerman, who.
Starting point is 01:14:01 who I've loved in everything this girl's done. So she shows up and she's got this wig on. I talked about the wigs, you know, a lot of people are wearing wigs. It's to save your hair from damage. The Kardashians wear wigs. Nicole Kidman wears a wig in every show. I think it's to save time and to protect your hair.
Starting point is 01:14:24 But this wig is not very good. But she has this like Texas wig on and she's super sexy. and the sex is crazy. So a lot of women are questioning their sexuality after watching it. I have always been a fan of like bisexual, like soft porn cinemax kind of fun, okay? Where it's, you know, all of a sudden two girls just start like making out with each other and there's just like titties on tits and you're like, okay, that's pretty nice. And back in the day, there used to be things called cinemax and this is when people actually to like, film porn like at people's houses and it was always in the valley and peter and i would watch it
Starting point is 01:15:04 and then we would like pause and get in fights about where we thought it was shot i'd be like this is in north ridge he'd be like i think it's chatsworth i'm like i think i went to this open house i think i know exactly where this is and it would be a fun thing that we'd do together anyway it reminded me of that it was done really cheesy lots of gratuitous scenes mostly because this character is um this character uh this character uh that played by her with the wig. I don't know how she has time. She's having sex with this girl in her friend group who's married to the sheriff.
Starting point is 01:15:38 So they're like secret lesbians. Then she has sex with her husband. Then we find out that she's also having sex with her other best friend's son, who is a senior in high school. And so they're they're screwing all the time too. And then she decides to have sex with the new girl in time. town, Brittany Snow. And she lets Britney Snow know, like, I'm also having sex with this teenager. And Britney Snow doesn't really care because she's like enjoying the lesbian sex with her too.
Starting point is 01:16:10 I am like, oh my God, this girl's having so much sex. And it wonder she doesn't have time to blow out her hair and just to wear a bad wig. Because who the fuck has time to do all this? And then there's, you know, so it involves like a murder. It also involves a church. And they make this, there's this junior pastor there and because he's like a young junior pastor they have him like in a wool beanie even though it's August in Texas
Starting point is 01:16:36 and he's always wearing the wool beanie because that's like the look of like a young hip pastor the wool beanie the ripped jeans like a couple you know rubber bracelets whatever and he so there's he's a creep and then
Starting point is 01:16:52 there's like the sheriff and then this is the crate okay now this is a real spoiler. This is the first time I've ever seen this done in any TV show. But they have a woman on man pegging scene. I could not believe it. So they, I was like, oh my God. First of all, before I got to that part, I had seen there's a pegging scene. And I was like, oh my God, oh my God. Like la la la. That's what I told you if you're watching, if I get one comment that says, Heather, you ruined this for me? I'm going to be fucking pissed because I warned you.
Starting point is 01:17:29 So the sheriff was trying to find out who murdered this girl, okay? Because Brad's girlfriend gets murdered. And we don't know if it's Margo with the bad wig, who he's fucking, who's a 40-year-old, who's married to the guy that's going to be governor one day, who's also fucking the sheriff's wife, who's also fucking Britney Stowe, who's the star of the show, who's married to a man with a child. child. I mean, there's so many twists and turns. But then all of a sudden we see a scene where the big sheriff is getting pegged by the sometime lesbian redheaded wife. And they all
Starting point is 01:18:10 have guns and they're all like shooting animals and stuff. So we don't know like who killed this young girl, Brad's girlfriend who's poor. And and then we think is it Brad's mom who killed his girlfriend, Abby, because she thinks she's trash and she's afraid the girl's going to ruin her child's life. And there's like little hints that she's caught for him. So there's like incestuous hints between Margo and her weird brother and all this stuff. So you're like, oh my God, where is this going next? And okay, again, there's a spoiler. So then Abby's mother who lost her child is convinced that it was Brad or Brad's mom. that killed her daughter.
Starting point is 01:18:55 And she just shows up with a shotgun at Brad's mom's house. And we don't know what happens. And then Margo and the other girls are like, God, you know, Brad's mom seems a little off lately, don't you think? I mean, she didn't even come to the country bar with us tonight to do shots and ride the bull. That's so unlike her. I'm like, Brad's mom is the pastor's wife. Brad's mom also had her son be questioned by the police for killing his girlfriend who's now dead.
Starting point is 01:19:32 So you don't think that would make her a little off. You think it's appropriate that she'd be at the bar. They're like, let's go see what's going on with her because, you know, we're a little suspicious about her, whatever. They show up in their house. She's all perfectly quaffed. And she's like, oh, hi, girls. What are you doing here? And they're like, we are coming in and having a drink.
Starting point is 01:19:56 And she's like, ah, don't go in the kitchen. It's messy. And they go in and they see that Abby's mother, who came over with a shotgun, is now on the kitchen floor, bloody, with her shotgun next to her. And she's like, I had to kill her. She came here and I had to kill her. And they're like, what? What do you mean? What are you doing?
Starting point is 01:20:19 and so then she holds her gun she's like I had to protect myself and then the sheriff's wife who's also sleeping with Margo shoots her because she's afraid she was going to shoot them so now Brad's mother is dead and they all think that she's the one who killed his girlfriend Abby Abby's mother is dead so now there's three people that are dead and
Starting point is 01:20:47 Okay, should I tell you who did it? All right, fine. So we don't, so people all, so the case is closed. The case is closed. Even though they think it's Britney Snow because right before the girl was shot in the woods, they saw Britney Snow running after her. And Britney Snow's gun was used in the crime.
Starting point is 01:21:16 But she was so wasted with Margo, making out with Margo and then Margo fucking Brad, the teenager, and then she was making out with Brad's friend, that she doesn't remember chasing her in the woods or why her gun went missing. So then we find out that that Margo and her trashy brother, Kyle, are actually the Illamich, illegitimate children of this doctor and that he was the alibi for the night of Abby's murder because Margo got the gun took the gun of Britney Stones because it was the closest to her and was afraid you know what I still don't know why she killed Abby but she killed Abby she killed Abby and then she had her dumb brother clean it up and then the brother was so dumb
Starting point is 01:22:15 that he sold the gun to somebody else and it showed up in like a robbery. So then it got tracked back to Brittany. And I'm like, so you killed this girl because you didn't want anyone to find out that you were fucking her boyfriend. And because of that, then the mother was dead and now two mothers are dead because of it.
Starting point is 01:22:39 But you're going to take it to the grave, whatever. so she so brittany knows that margot did it and she's driving driving with all this information she's confronted her and margot's brother kyle like runs her off the road and is like i need to talk to you like you're not going to you're not going to ruin my sister's life and tell everybody that she killed this girl who then resulted in two other people being dead and she ends up hitting him but she hit him after she had some drinks because she struggles with alcohol and then she manages to luckily she hit him right near a big cliff and she was able to drag his body and then kick it off the cliff and now there's going to be a season two so a lot of people are thinking about wanting to be a lesbian
Starting point is 01:23:37 that's a good part of it also this is why you probably shouldn't have guns in the house and um the fact that no one was more disgusted by this girl fucking the 18 year old boy is beyond me and oh and margot got pregnant with the 18 year old boy's kid so that was another part of it and she was like a hooker and whatever it it was entertaining it was juicy so you wanted my take, there is my take. I did at the end of the show. And if you now want to watch it to just tell me what other frustrates, I didn't think that the detective was poorcasting, this female detective, that never made sense. You know, it was campy and a lot of things were confusing. And I've talked to people about it and then they've corrected me. So you're probably
Starting point is 01:24:25 screaming as you're driving saying, no, Heather, you missed this one part. It was so many moving parts. But you've asked me to talk about it. So I decided I would.
