Betches Media presents.
Ha ha, laugh, funny.
It All, a Bravo by Betches podcast.
We don't say that, but now we said it.
With me, Dylan Hafer.
We're going to check me, boo.
Hey, everyone.
Welcome back to the Mention at All podcast.
I am Dylan Hafer, and today I am excited to be joined by a favorite guest of mine,
a friend of mine, and a friend of the podcast, of course, please welcome back, Danny Murphy.
Hi.
Oh, I love being a friend of the podcast above all.
That just feels, it feels like Wendy Williams in 2022.
Okay.
all right.
Oh, I mean, I mean, what Wendy Williams would say on her show, not the current state of her.
Yes.
Yeah.
I really do.
I feel like every few, every week or so, there's like a story that's happening in pop culture or in the Bravo universe or just in the world that I'm like, I really wish I could listen to Wendy Williams talk about this in an uninformed, uncensored fashion for 10 minutes right now.
It's literally what a, we are missing it and we'll never get it back.
And it just is, I mean, hopefully she comes back, but I mean, in the sense where it's like, God, it really did just like shape the days and the weeks and the months and the years of our life.
Because it was the best.
I'd be like, I don't care if she's saying everyone's name wrong or doesn't have any of the facts.
She just knows exactly what to say to make my day.
Like we're going to talk about in a minute we'll get to.
We're going to talk about Jim Edmonds getting married again and Megan's.
you know, surgical enhancements that she's very excited about.
Megan the Scallion, yes.
What I wouldn't give to listen to Wendy Williams be like, so Jim Edmonds.
Clap if you know Jim Edmonds.
Uh-huh.
Right.
Okay.
So he was married to the housewives girl, right?
The Megan, Megan, right?
The skinny blonde one.
I feel like she'd be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is this Beverly Hills?
Orange County.
Okay.
Like, it's so good.
And then my favorite is that I feel like, obviously, her producers are all amazing and everything like that, that they, they would give her the prep material.
She's like, me.
I'm going to, like, I'm going to do me.
Right.
Working on that show, I have to imagine, was one of those things where you were always seeing your life flash before your eyes because she was going on live television every day.
And some of, you could tell some of the topics she really knew what she was talking about.
But when she was talking about housewives drama and shit like that,
she doesn't know anybody's name.
She doesn't know the backstory of anything.
Like she is kaboo.
She would talk out of her ass and it's so entertaining.
But I have to imagine being like the producer that was tasked with prepping her for that.
You're like, Wendy, Wendy, Wendy, we went over this.
We talked about that.
And also like the person has a deal with like the publicist's team and everything like that.
He was like, uh, Wendy said the name wrong.
I was like, you're going to, I hope Rob would ever complain to the Wendy Williams
about any of that because they should know better.
I had a similar moment last night.
I was watching Dancing with the Stars, which is very out of character for me.
I was going to say, I didn't know you would air that live publicly.
So I have never been a Dancing with the Stars watcher.
I've always been somebody who will kind of pay attention on the fringes.
I know who's on the season.
Maybe there's a couple people where I'll watch the clips of their dances,
but the actual viewing experience for me has always been kind of lackluster.
No, all I do is watch Andrea Lopez is pretending to be Teresa,
like recapping it, which is the best thing ever.
I have not watched an episode of Dance With the Stars, yeah.
But for some reason, this season, Monday nights on Disney Plus,
it has been the exact thing that I need after a Monday to just kind of turn off my brain.
And last night, so Charlie D'Amilio and her mom are both competing on this season.
Oh.
And every, so all of the people like their friends and family will come watch the show.
And last night, so Charlie is currently dating Landon, right?
Travis Barker's son, Landon.
Yeah.
And so her, the friends and family section for the D'emilios last night was Courtney
Kardashian, Travis Barker.
Landon and Dixie Dimeleo who just buzzed her hair off.
So that's like interesting, whatever.
I'm learning so many, so many things right now.
Well, the first thing, all I'm thinking right now is Hulu Disney Plus.
So that's why Courtney was there.
Let's just leave it at that.
Go on.
Yes.
And the Demilio show, it's really corporate, corporate synergy.
It's beautiful.
Yes.
And it's love, of course.
No, it's love above all.
But what brought me back to the Wendy Williams reference is,
Tyra Banks is the most chaotic
Dancing with the Stars host you could imagine.
And she's like,
she's like, give it up for Charlie's friends and family.
We've got Courtney Kardashian,
Travis Barker,
and Travis's son,
Logan Barker.
Oh, no.
If you're confused why this matters,
it's because his name is Landon, not Logan.
And so they're showing
them sitting at this table,
and Landon's kind of like doing the like cringe smile where you like,
you see it happening.
And then like Charlie's like,
because she doesn't, it's awkward already that it's like her 18 year old boyfriend and Tyrus.
Yeah. I don't know.
It was it was so funny.
I'm like that is something Wendy Williams would do.
She'd be like, she would be like, so the son, so the son, Logan.
And the producers would be like, Landon.
Landon, land.
Land the plane then, yeah.
I mean, Landon doesn't come off the tongue so easily.
But she took a leap of faith trying to know his name.
I would have just said Travis and Corny and the fam.
But so I give her credit for trying to give Landon Logan credit.
But the name, the name, the name pays.
Yeah.
So, okay, we're talking about celebrities that I think could potentially be interesting on Bravo shows.
I could, like, Tyra Banks on Housewives sounds.
like a dream and a nightmare
wrapped in one.
But I'm curious.
There was a story
in the news this week
that I sent to you
about that Remy Ma,
who is, you know,
iconic rapper,
extraordinary.
Who's that peeking in my window?
Nobody, because I live in a penthouse.
And now we know why she can afford
the penthouse because it's in New Jersey.
She spent some time behind bars.
She feuded with Nikki Minaj.
There's a lot of,
there's a lot of history there.
She did a show with Ebony.
Kay Williams too, so there's, she's got tie-in.
Yes. So there was a report on TMZ this week that apparently Ebony had passed along
Remy Ma's name to Roney producers as somebody who would be good for the show.
And they had some kind of meeting with her.
And in the meeting found out that Remy actually lives full-time in New Jersey.
And so she's automatically not in consideration for Roney.
Which, first of all, it's funny to me because I feel like there are people
I feel like you could fudge that.
Like, can't you just get her a hotel for like a certain amount of nights
and she can get her like New York residency or something?
And also that would just be so much funnier for the show.
Everyone's like, wait, Remy, you don't even live in New York.
Like she's, I would even love her like having to sit in Holland Tunnel traffic.
Like, guys, no, I will be there.
I am coming.
Take your time.
But I do love that this advocates for because I'm all for fudging that resume to get a job you want.
Remy's like, no, yeah, I live in new.
Just saying the new part, not the Jersey part,
to get to the New York.
The tri-state area.
Yeah.
Yeah, you know, I live in the globe.
I'm in one of the boroughs of a sense.
Yeah.
Do you remember on the, on last season of New York when Bershon was a friend of,
like she fully lived in D.C.
Oh, the Asella points.
If Acella gives out points, she must be racking it in.
I had her on the podcast and she was taught.
I was like, oh, like, she was saying how she knew,
other women. And I was like, oh, who do you know? And it was all of the ones that live in D.C.
Oh, you're like, girl, she's like, you know the people in like North Carolina while I'm
hopping on the train? Yeah, they're great. Right. It's like, oh, well, I'm neighbors with
Giselle, but not really, but kind of. Oh, neighbors, kind of, in a sense. I think that, I mean,
I feel like also because Roney is, I don't even know what they're doing or operating with to make it
happen. I think, I don't think any viewer would be mad that a high profile rapper,
entertainer, who has so much to bring to the show lives 30 minutes outside of Manhattan at this
point. Like, I think we are grasping at, we just need to get a cast going because I want
Roney back. And it's been, like, it's so weird that they're still in this phase. I'm like,
I don't even know if it's going like what the end game is. Right. And I think it felt like
in the past couple months, there's a, like, in the past couple months,
were a couple times where there were these casting rumors that made their way around the internet.
There was a full cast at one point that was kind of debunked. And then there was another moment
where that one influencer lady was like officially reported to be in casting for the reboot.
But then there hasn't been any other news to follow up on that. And I do feel pretty confident
that the second a group of women starts filming for Roney in New York City, we will know.
Everyone will know, yeah.
Right.
So now it's October and there's been no kind of further casting news.
No kind of, you know, nobody's writing into Dumois about seeing people film.
It's just like, what is the status and is somebody like Remima really who you should be crossing off the list at this point?
Regardless of how you feel about her specifically, it's like, well, who are you looking for?
Who is the cast?
I know, right?
I also was wondering if that story just came out much later than it was,
because I don't think Ebony has, I think her, like, she does not seem to be coming back at all.
So I feel like that might have been like a few months ago when she was trying to work something out with Bravo.
And then just like your one pick was from Jersey.
I mean, this other girl, that influencer who everyone said was going to do it,
she moved her family from Texas.
So people move for the show.
I'm just like, I don't know if that's the best choice.
There is a time honored.
tradition of, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's the same thing as when somebody wants to
run for Congress and they buy a house in the district. It's like, you know, fucking doctor,
a house. I don't even have bought a, yeah. We've, we've, we've all done it. But I,
come on guys. Yeah. You, when I sent this to you, the first thing you said was that
revenue I should just do Real House size of New Jersey. Yes. A hundred percent. She would
literally, she would, I love all my Jersey ladies. She'd light some fire under Melissa.
she wouldn't put up with Teresa's shit.
And I think her in Marge would be a great duo
to kind of like go up against any bullshit
that Teresa might be spewing out.
See, I could see Remy and Dolores kind of getting along.
Or clashing, you never know.
I also could see them like, I don't know.
I don't think either of them are bisexual.
I could see them like having a moment.
I don't know why.
I could see them like being like very attracted to each other.
Maybe not in a sexual way,
but just in like, I feel you.
I don't know why I'm getting that, but there's something bad.
You're calling it now.
Dolores is going to have like a sexual awakening storyline.
In theaters, 23, it's Dolores' bros.
We just simply cannot go there.
Yeah, it is interesting because New Jersey is one of the franchises that has never,
had any kind of like quote unquote celebrity casting.
Yeah.
And to go along with that, they've also never had any diversity, which is interesting that
there have been more in the last few years, there have been clearly more efforts to have
diverse casting with some of the franchises, but then some of them, it's like, they don't need it
yet, I think Jersey's diversity is like, okay, we'll get someone who's not Italian.
And they're like, oh, perfect.
Okay, we have someone like, there's a Scot.
Irish boyfriend coming in. Oh, that's
diversity. And it's like, no.
Fapes, that's not it. Or someone who's
not in the bloodline of the family.
Yeah.
Right. Like, Jackie being Jewish is like
groundbreaking for Real Housewives of New Jersey.
And it's like, do you know how much
like Jewish and Italian culture have in common?
And also like, it's not.
I mean, Jill before that, but Jules, I was just watching the
Jewel season. I mean, I did love her. I want her to have
another season. I want, maybe her and Rememey Monk can come back.
But yeah, I think. And also,
Jersey, all the new
alleged people, all just a bunch of blondeis,
so it could use a little mix-up, which would be good.
Yeah, I don't know.
But Remima aside, I do
kind of wonder
what's happening
with New York. It's been over a
year now since
season 13 ended unceremoniously
with no reunion.
And it's like, we got
we got to get something going.
Sooner or later, it has
to be real. It is just so
weird because there's been so many, it's the thing everybody always says, like, there's been so many flop seasons of all the other franchises.
They never get canceled. I'm like, Beverly Hills just got interesting again three years ago, or two years ago.
As because, I mean, so why is New York getting like all this fog on it, especially because it was the COVID season and it was so hard.
And I love those ladies. I mean, I hate them, but I hate some of them, but I love to watch all of them.
I know. And they're all, I mean, they're all around. It, like, with, especially, especially,
especially with the legacy thing that's going to be happening.
Or there was a report that it's going to be called like ultimate housewives of New York,
which to me, I don't.
So stupid.
Like stop mixing up the titles.
But with that, it's like they're all here.
Just like start filming.
Throw some fucking cameras.
And where's this Sonia Luan thing?
I was wondering if there's going to be any New York tease at BravoCon.
But I feel like they can't because usually they show trailers and not.
And I don't think any of these ladies have been filming under our nose.
is exactly what you were saying.
Hmm.
Yeah, I do think we would know if there was a show that was like currently being made,
feature.
I mean, with the reboot, it's one thing.
But imagine if, like, Sonia and Luann and Dorinda are getting lunch in New York,
you're going to know the second they get to the restaurant.
That's true.
That's true.
Damn.
It makes me sad because they were, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they,
they were fun and I mean it's just kind of like I also just because like living in like New York you know so like you kind of like you just like to like see them go around everywhere and they were just so batch it I think it was Ira Madison who tweeted it's like the what Lisa Barlow said about Meredith Marks and the hot like that's like so much drama is like what the rony ladies say to each other every night when they're drunk and then they move on the next morning and it's like that's so true like they were just so vicious but hilarious together right like Sonia has too too many drinks.
drinks at a party and she's like, she fucked half of New York.
Yeah.
And Sunday's like, and I did too.
And I did too.
So what?
Yeah.
Her stupid fucking family that poses.
It's so, I, God, I need those ladies.
Because it's also just a comedy.
Like, if Brahma doesn't want it anymore, put them on CBS comedy.
Like, I mean, I'll watch it.
Yeah, Chuck Lori can write them a pilot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How I met your seven mothers and it's just the Rony cast.
Yeah.
Girl, winter is so last season.
And now Springs got you looking at pictures of tank tops with hungry eyes.
Your algorithm is feeding you cutoffs.
You're thirsty for the sun on your shoulders.
That perfect hang on the patio sundress.
Those sandals you can wear all day and all night.
And you've had enough of shopping from your couch.
Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear up on that envelope.
It's time for a little in-person spring treat.
It's time for a trip to Ross.
Work your magic.
drinks are now at McDonald's, with refreshers like the strawberry watermelon refresher, and the
mango pineapple refresher with popping boba to crafted sodas like the Sprite Berry Blast, with berry
flavors and cold foam. Who knew ice cold drinks could be so fire? Try them all now at McDonald's.

Well, you mentioned what's happening with Meredith and Lisa in Salt Lake City, which is very
interesting.
And one reason I was excited to chat with you today is because we have recently had Salt Lake
Lake City interviews kind of on the opposite end of the spectrum.
Because if you are a mention at all listener, you know that we had Lisa on last week for the
premiere.
And you and Evan Reel had the pleasure of sitting down with Meredith Marks.
Meredith Marks on virtual reality over at page six.
we sat down with with mayor.
And it is really something to watch interviews with the two of them because they could not be
on more polar opposite pages right now.
And when I was watching, I'm curious to get your kind of unfiltered thoughts on that conversation
you had with Meredith, because when I was watching it, it is kind of funny how many different
angles.
It feels like you and Evan are approaching the least.
Lisa Barlow topic from.
And Meredith just has this like steely kind of look on her face of, well, you know, when you find
out the way that someone really acts, then you know how they are.
So then you know that they can't be trusted.
And well, you'll have to wait and see, but you know when someone can't be trusted.
And I'm like, God, you, you fucking hate her.
I, not what, like, you, like, the vitral, you can, like, kind of feel it in the air.
I ask, like, you say, I want to know your unfiltered thoughts.
I feel like, Luanne talking about Leah's apartment when it's like, you really want to know.
But I will say, it kind of, it feels, I'm like, I need just, I'm like, how the fact that Meredith isn't, like, the, like, operating a law firm because she's so that, like, she's unbreakable and unmovable.
and she kind of is good at having those quotes.
Like if anthropology had like T.J. Max's like pillow quotes.
You know what I mean?
She's good at saying things like that where it's like the truth reveals it all
and everything.
It's so funny too that like she really dances around the Lisa,
but Jen and she'll talk all,
like she'll mention it all but Jen.
And a good,
in only great ways,
which kind of,
yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
With Lisa,
it's funny because she,
it's like,
She's not letting anything slip through the cracks in terms of what she's saying.
But when she says, well, you'll have to watch the season and wait and find out,
it could not be,
it could not be more clear that whatever's going to happen on the season,
she still doesn't fuck with Lisa.
A hundred percent.
Well, also, like, you know it's like when you're ripping out, like,
you're like PDF downloading SCC files about this bitch.
Like, yeah, this is just going on.
Also, me and Evan are so dumb.
We're like, SEC.
don't know, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, oh my God, the FDA, she's like, no.
SEC, is that football?
Yeah, I know, really?
I'm like, okay, what are we?
I'm like, you're not on Southern Charm, baby girl, what's happening?
But yeah, she seems like guns blazing against this girl.
It is kind of hilarious for when they're talking about this hot mic moment in quotes
because Meredith objects to that terminology.
Yes, yes, yes.
I object, Your Honor.
I don't truly boom, boom, boom.
Seth and Brooks are the dancing lobsters.
But it's funny because
Meredith is very adamant that she
never really said anything about Lisa
to warrant the kind of
spewing of vitriol
that came from Lisa toward her.
And she's like, the only thing
that I did was look up
the SEC filing,
which was public record.
And I'm like, okay, I don't doubt that it was public record that you could like find it online, but you still looked it up and brought it up on camera.
Like, it's not nothing.
That's like, if someone like got divorced, I don't want to talk about it.
It's like, I just Google divorce records and it was there.
So I don't know.
I'm just mad.
I'm just saying it.
Yeah.
So and also it's like you can't like there was the clear motive of that Google search.
You weren't just kind of like, look, you know, I'm just like, oh my God, I stumbled upon it.
You never stumble on SEC reports.
You can stumble on watching someone's Instagram story accidentally being like,
oh, that's weird, but you're never like calling like Vita Holdings to see what's up.
Vita Holdings.
According to Lisa, that filing is about some other business that is not, is like a new thing that they're working on.
So that's the reason that it hasn't made any money.
Like that's Lisa's response to that.
I don't know.
I haven't stumbled across the SEC reports.
And if I did, I don't think I don't think I.
would be able to interpret them because I'm dumb.
No, exactly.
It's funny, too, that they, like, Meredith talks, like, in, like, she, like,
drag, like, is so, like, uses seven words in a minute and, like, just kind of is like,
oh, this is what I'm going to say.
This is what I say.
And Lisa just kind of like, I'm almost like, Lisa just bulldozes every other point.
I feel like it's, like, very hard to interview her because I'm, you're just like,
how do I stop and move on to the next thing?
I do love her.
Well, it was funny when, so she was in the office.
last week and we talked for probably like 35 minutes. And she was saying at the end,
she's like, oh, I'm really like, I'm really tired. Yesterday was such a long day. I feel like I just
was, I feel like I was just talking so much and I hope it made sense. And I'm like,
Lisa, it felt like you were preparing to give like an Oscar winning a performance. Like,
not only did it make sense. It felt like the beats were perfectly prepped. Like,
you, you came in here and did exactly what you meant to do. So like, like, congratulations.
Congratulations.
No, congrats to the whole fan.
I am so curious because the Meredith supporting Jen, when she's supported it for page six,
they talked about it on The View.
And the ladies all had thoughts there.
And I'm so curious if Lisa is like doing cartwheels that so many of them are like,
why are you supporting this girl who's like was in the wrong?
It is kind of funny because like you said, Meredith has such a deliberate way of
about things and has this kind of lawyer quality.
I mean, she literally is a lawyer, but that it feels like everything she says is so purposeful.
But then at the same time, from just an overhead perspective, it seems like such a baffling move to stand by the woman in the group who has pled guilty to committing fraud, that it is kind of hard to reconcile those two things in my mind, that it's like she's so deliberate.
and everything that she does, yet she seems immune to what everyone else in the world sees
in Jen Shah.
I know.
And Heather, too.
Heather isn't the same boat because Heather also has supported her.
Heather told us that she's had prison boyfriends before, so she's ready for it.
Okay.
And I was like, Heather.
But I almost think they're in different mindsets because now it's like the verdict is there
and everything like that.
I think now they're pivoting to being like, well, I'm just.
supporting my friend and like would you leave your like Sarah Haynes she said that she wouldn't leave her friend high and dry no matter what so I guess it's kind of like now it's less of because it's less of a debate back and forth is what they're going with but it is funny the 180 Meredith took from what we watched last season to now yeah without getting too deep into the view because I don't know I don't know how many of the people listening really care I do I do feel like Heather Gay and Sarah Haynes spiritually have like a similar energy
to me. So it's not surprising that they both would be like, well, if she was my friend,
I wouldn't just stop being friends with her. But then I expect, I expect Meredith to be more
of a Sonny Hosten. And I feel like she's, she's being weirdly sympathetic. That lawyer mentality,
100% yes. I do, I would love, they should have, I guess they did the Bravo chat room.
I was going to say, why isn't there like a talk show type situation where it's like all the
housewives talking about stuff like that, but I guess,
never mind.
Yeah, like, thinking back to me
watching Bravo Chat Room like three times and then being like,
I don't know.
Heat of pandemic when it's just literally like every Zoom camera was upside
down. We're just like, what is, is life a simulation?
Yeah.
I do think that concept could work really well.
If it was like not virtual and maybe some casting
tweaks.
Like, I don't know if they ever really found
the exact right mix.
But the virtual thing just makes it hard
because it's like, I don't want to watch
30 minutes of you in your house.
And I almost could just be like,
and they started to do it with the guests.
And even have it like be a little bit
of a more rotation set up
and have it be like the show concept
does the constant
and everybody flipping around
a little bit more from that.
Yeah, that was a better idea
than when they tried to give Jerry O'Connell
his talk show on Bravo.
that was like, what was it called?
Like, real men watch Bravo and it's like...
Something like that.
I love James Holmes who was in that, Dave Holmes,
but only lasts like two episodes, I think.
But I always on the talk.
So I think everybody on Bravo was like,
why would I...
We have Watch What Happens Live.
I don't want to watch, like, a different white dude,
like, pretend that watching House Lives is groundbreaking.
That's the kind of funny thing with it,
where it just kind of like, what did we even...
What are we even doing here with that?
I know. It was one of the things I'm like, would have loved to be on it for an episode, but
I digress.
It's like Bravo is constantly just trying to remind us how much we love Jerry O'Connell and
Michael Rappaport. And it's like, no, but we don't.
They really, they, those guys have, I don't know what, how they are so intertwined with
Bravo, but they really find their way in.
They're like, remember, it's your favorite watch What Happens Live guest, Michael Rappaport.
And you're like, I didn't say that.
I feel he's on every week, too, almost.
I don't know how, but he.
and never to like promote anything.
He's just there to be like literally to gab
to be the Bravo Watch What Happens Live guess.
Look, I love that journey for,
I would love that journey if it was for me.
I just,
I would love people to hate how much I'm on Watch Whatch Happens Live.
Yeah, right.
Like, book, I would love to be booked.
Yeah.
But I know, it is very interesting.
I think he gets it because now he's like friendly
with so many of the Housewives too,
so maybe it kind of goes in with that.
Who knows? And Jerry O'Connell's life was on last night, I literally think. So yeah, Rebecca, Jerry and Rebecca were on together. Yeah. That's cute. I don't mind that. They are cute. They are a cute duo. They are a gorgeous couple too. I won't give them that. Oh my God, I know. Ready to soundtrack your summer?

Watch only on Prime. Okay, let's talk about what's happening. I alluded to it earlier with Jim Edmonds.
Speaking of gorgeous couple. Megan King formerly Edmonds. So Jim got married in Lake Como last weekend.
It is, if my sources are corrected, it is his fourth marriage. I think so. And he told people,
quote, for the first time in my life, I finally understand true happiness.
What a dick.
What a piece of shit.
This is such a fucking loaded quote, knowing that we all know and saw and watched your last marriage on TV.
And it's like, I understand the things with you and Megan didn't, haven't been great the last few years.
But it's like to go in public and say that this is the first time in your life you've ever been happy.
It's like, sir.
A little, a little bit of a re-
Yeah, and also, it feels, makes it feel like this marriage she's doing, like, I don't even know who this girl he married, but it's just to spite Megan.
Because like, what?
Well, her name is Courtney.
Oh.
Can you, can you guess how Courtney is spelled?
With a K and a Q, I'm guessing.
Yes, yes to the K.
Okay.
It's a K-O-R-T-N-I-E.
Oh, God.
A migraine, no joking, you told me that.
It just, like, started, like, a sinus pressure headache on the top of my head.
That is so, if you are named that and it's spelled that way and you're listening to this, like, I don't know what to tell you.
I am sorry.
I've never seen that before in my life.
There's specific towns where that keychain, you will find that keychain.
for the name game keychain.
Specific places.
You're like at the gift shop in Disney World and Florida,
but probably not the one in L.A.
100%.
At only that.
Yeah, that is, wow.
I did love though.
So Megan spoke to us weekly.
I appreciate that at this point,
Megan is available to give a quote
on absolutely anything at any time.
That's kind of what she does best these days.
She's ready.
quotes about this wedding are really something special.
She told us weekly, quote,
he's spending massive, whopping, inconceivable amounts of money on his bride.
Like, I am all for it, whatever it takes.
Keep her around.
Take her on lavish trips.
Buy her a Ferrari and Chanel and private jets.
Do anything you can to keep this woman because I don't know what would happen if she was gone.
Like he would fall apart.
Oh!
Wait, she actually won.
And then she also, she took the opportunity to give some props to Jim and Courtney,
saying that Jim has been able to provide stability for her kids with a partner that she hasn't been able to.
And she said, quote, but at least Jim with his mountain of faults is able to provide that.
I'm going to give him props where props are due.
Ooh.
She's good.
This is a really inspired work.
She really thought, she took out like, like those classic pens, like, and just kind of
went to doubt on it.
I've sold it over, get her a Ferrari, keep her around.
No matter how many Chanel's you borrow, hopefully Jim will be able to keep you.
You're not running away.
Well, I mean, Megan's based, too, because she, I think, like, the same time she got, like, a
nose and a boob job, too.
She did.
She got a nose job and a boob job.
She said she upgraded them both after 10 years.
And she is thrilled.
She's so happy.
Though she did say,
she said the first time she took the bandage off her nose.
She was horrified because it looked wider than it was before.
And she said,
you guys,
I had a,
she said I had a vaso vagal reaction.
I puked.
I'm like,
I don't know what that big V word really means.
But I'm like,
Megan is such an open book in a way that is so fascinating.
And in a way that makes me be like,
what if we had her back on Orange County?
She would be good.
I mean, she's probably, she's ready.
And she'd bring some extra drama because I know they, I don't know,
murmurings around and saying that they've been struggling to get like some drama,
drama extra going for OC.
So I feel she would come in with some receipts to get some stuff going on.
and maybe with that guy from, I don't watch The Bachelor, but Mike, isn't she like,
kind of like not seeing, seeing him?
Yeah, there's, they've been seen together a couple times, but I don't think there's been,
I don't think there's been any real confirmation of whether anything is happening.
But that's interesting.
Obviously, there was the extremely brief marriage to the Biden nephew.
And then, of course, all the stuff happening with Jim in the,
years since she was a housewife.
I do feel like with with somebody like her, even if she's not your favorite from a
personality standpoint, I appreciate the fact that it does feel like there is always something
happening in her life.
And I think with with housewives, one of the big struggles sometimes is if you have these
people that have been on the show for several years, they can kind of get to a point where
it's like, okay, nothing is, you don't have anything going on.
And we see that, I mean, thinking about the housewives of Orange County at this point, it's like, I don't really think there's that much going on in Emily Simpson's life.
I don't think there's that much going on in Heather's just buying land in Mexico?
No.
Like, when you look at that cast, it's like, I like a lot of the personalities.
But when it comes to storyline, I don't, I can't off the top of my head really think of,
too much that's going on.
Even Tamara coming back.
I'm like, I love Tamara.
I think she is a smart enough housewife to like,
just quick.
Yeah.
Figure something out.
But like she's not going through a divorce.
She doesn't have stuff going on with her kids that we know of really.
She's,
you know,
like it doesn't feel like she's at any kind of big like turning point in her life.
Major moments.
Yeah.
I'm like with Megan at the very least,
we would be getting drama.
and trauma and
well
you know what we
material you can also add into
that mix do we throw in Leslie
Bador
David's eggs or
whatever that is
and just have Shannon implode
what would be
what would be
the environmental impact
if we just had
Shannon Bador
show up
to an event
and she did it
and Leslie was there
miced up
without Shannon knowing in advance.
Would there be an earthquake?
The doomsday glacier that I read about a month ago
and have just been in a panic that's supposed to like melt in seven years
would melt in seven months.
Like that just what that's like Hawaii would just sink into the ocean.
There's no California.
That's when California would actually detach from the country
and it would just be its floating rock and ploding.
Kind of worth it.
I mean really how many other.
other years do we have with the way the world is going?
Let's go out with a bang.
Yeah. I mean, if Leslie is telling the truth on this third time and really did now file for divorce herself,
maybe, maybe there's a, like, I would never wish ill on Shannon Bador because I know she is
sometimes in a little bit of a fragile state, but I wouldn't hate to see that.
I think it would make her stronger in the long run.
is the lie I'll tell myself to want that.
Right, right.
You're like, you're like, Shannon would really go through it, but she would come out the other end.
I would, yeah.
I'd be like, God gives his toughest battles to his strongest warriors.
Go, Shannon.
And she's like shouting.
She would get through it with the love and support of her best friends, Kelly Dodd and Jeff Lewis.
That's the truth.
Every time I see the three of them together on Instagram, I'm like, well, that looks, it's one room I don't have foam over.
I was going to say, yeah, that is a circle of hell I'm okay missing out on.
The nightmare blunt rotation live and in person.
Oh, God, literally.
Oh, my God.
I can't even imagine.
Like, truly a nightmare.
A nightmare.
I mean, Shannon, love you, though.
Get out of there.
Shannon I would love to get brunch with, but them, yes, not so much.
Right.
Like, like, mimosa.
I would have Jeff, like, rip my apartment apart and then fix it.
You're like, I would have Jeff perform services for free in my home.
I'm a simple gal.
But I wouldn't hang out with him.
No.
You're like, while Shannon and I are at brunch, Jeff can flip my home for free.
Yeah, me, Shannon and Remmy Ma.
gab in our hearts out in Jersey as Jeff is getting to work.
Kelly, I don't know where you will be in this situation, and I don't care.
Well, I will book the reservation, and we can meet up for that brunch.
