Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:24 It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. Betch's media presents. Ha ha, laugh, funny. Mention It All. A Bravo by Betcha's podcast. We don't say that, but now we said it.
Starting point is 00:00:41 With Dylan Hafer. Who don't check me, boo? And Barry Rosenfeld. I need to start drinking alcohol. Now go to sleep week. Hey, everyone. Welcome back to the Mention at All podcast. I'm Dylan Hafer.
Starting point is 00:00:53 And I'm Barry Rosenfeld. And you know what? Now it's what we call from last week our podcast Friday. It's our podcast Friday. Podcast Friday. Make it hashtag podcast Friday. It is, in fact, Thursday morning. But yeah, we have a lot to talk about. Last night on Bravo was such an event, like Beverly Hills and then family karma and I'm just like sobbing everywhere. Yeah, I have to say the whole, like I was excited. Like I told you to watch it. Like I thought last night's episode, to family karma was beautiful.
Starting point is 00:01:32 I didn't cry only because, like, I don't. There's, like, no, like, tears in my body. But it was beautiful. No, it was, like, for me specifically, it was, like, the exact right kind of content that's, like, designed to make me cry. So I was, like, unwelled before the episode even started. But before that, we got to talk about Beverly Hills,
Starting point is 00:01:59 again. lots happening with Erica. We have more Sutton and Crystal back and forth. Yeah, like what do we call it at this point? I don't even know because it's like, obviously like they're not getting along super well. But it's like it's based off of now this like one specific incident that they both seem to sort of agree was not that big of a deal. But like, I don't know. It's super interesting to see kind of like.
Starting point is 00:02:30 how Crystal is, you know, trying to sort of spin it. And like, I don't know. It's an interesting situation. Yeah. And to be honest, I, it is crazy because they keep doing a back and forth, like showing flashbacks, which by the way, did you notice they didn't bleep out the F word? And she said, fuck in the episode twice in the flashback. I was like, no way. Yes.
Starting point is 00:02:52 But when they keep doing that, it's very weird. I don't know if it's because I like Crystal. And so I'm not seeing it. but I don't, I feel like she's not exactly twisting it. I feel like the story at this point has just been told so many times that the first time it happened. She said like exactly what happened. And now I feel like enough time has gone past or she's like it wasn't that big of a deal.
Starting point is 00:03:12 But to be honest, like it has to, like, it's just too much now. It's like what is there to accomplish with this conversation now? Yeah, I think I don't know if maybe this is kind of a side effect of crystal being so new to this group dynamic. And she's talked about not having, you know, really a lot of girlfriends in the past. And, but I thought it was really interesting for Doreet to kind of point out.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Because Chris, so basically Sutton is saying, like you're trying to make it seem like I was doing something creepy when I, it was just like an uncomfortable moment. And Crystal's like, I've never, I've never said you were creepy. Like,
Starting point is 00:03:51 I never said you were like doing anything like, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I thought I was kind of glad that Doree, spoke up and was like, I mean, when you told us before, like, you did make it sound like it was like we, like something strange was happening and like, yeah, that it was a little more to it. And, you know, she said, whatever actually happened, like you are, it is a different story that you were telling before. And I think like we're saying, like in the grand scheme of things, it shouldn't be that
Starting point is 00:04:21 big of a deal. Like we are, we all should just be ready to move on. But I think it would be easier if Chris, Crystal was honest about the fact that it was like, oh, yeah, I blew it out of proportion. Like, I maybe made it sound more, you know, dramatic or whatever than it was. Because Sutton at this point just feels like it's like an attack on her character. Yeah. And I think she's like, she's like, Crystal trying to make her look bad.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Yeah. And like, I mean, we've seen the, the replay of what happened. It literally was like an awkward moment. Sutton said something to like try and diffuse the tension, basically. and it maybe like read the wrong way to Crystal, but it's just something that in the grand scheme of things, it just happens. Like sometimes you're on a group trip with seven ladies in a house
Starting point is 00:05:07 and you just like open the door at the wrong time. Like it's not. Yeah. And like the way now we're talking about this word violated and back and forth, it's like honestly, it doesn't matter that much. Like if you both agree that it's not that big of a deal and move on, it doesn't matter, you know, whether Crystal, is using the accurate word.
Starting point is 00:05:28 And it's crazy with the whole violated thing because did Crystal feel violated and could she have? Yeah, like she at that moment but in Sutton Sutton wasn't actually violating her. Does that make, does that like make sense? Like she wasn't doing anything to violate her,
Starting point is 00:05:45 but it is validating that Crystal feels violated. I know so many viewers. No, I agree. And it actually makes, makes me think about on New York this week, the conversation that Leah and Ebony had, where Leah saying that the women feel intimidated by Ebony, and it's like, it's their right to feel intimidated, but that doesn't mean that Ebony is doing something to intimidate them. So it's like, I think that's the thing. Like, when you're describing words with how you feel, it's like, your
Starting point is 00:06:24 feelings are whatever they are. So if Crystal feels violated, it's not like inappropriate of her to express that. But then it's also important for her to acknowledge that like Sutton didn't do anything intentionally to make me feel that way. Yeah. And Sutton was like you, you like, stop saying that word. Like basically forcing Crystal's like, I mean, no, like I'm not going to like stop saying that. It's hard because like I understand why Sutton is upset. set at what she feels like as a personal attack. But then also I, when she's talking about how it's this game of telephone and it's like, you know, my character is on the other end and it's harmful.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Like I, yeah, I mean, honestly, it is one of those things where it's like, let's just be done. And Kathy Hilton being the voice of reason in this conversation. Oh, Kathy. She is. She is. I laughed. I know this is, I laughed out loud a few times. in last night's episode because, you know, how in the past people have been like,
Starting point is 00:07:28 oh, with Kathy, it's all an act. It's all an act. I'm like, definitely not. Like, that's her. But last night, it was like, whoa. Like, she was like down to earth, like having a real conversation at this table. And I was like, hmm, no, I don't think it's an act. What Kathy's doing. I think she's just. And, you know, she's learning new words, like, that Maseltov doesn't mean Merry Christmas. Dude, oh my God. I was, I was, like, hysterical. And also, yeah, I was like going to be like my actual mazzal of the day is the fact that she thought mazzletoff meant Merry Christmas. But I think she was just like throwing random words out.
Starting point is 00:07:59 And also the fact that she clearly didn't remember Doreet's name at the table. Like she did not know Doreet's name. And she was like and my English friend and Doree got like offended. Doree was like. I feel like Doree has been, she's been so put through the ringer for this dumb accent before that now she's like, hyper-specific of like, I'm not English. This is just the way I talk. Like, because people are like, why are you pretending to be British?
Starting point is 00:08:30 And she's like, I'm not. And Erica's like, she's from Connecticut, God damn it. Like, she's, that whole, that whole scene was just so underrated, but also about Doreen, the fact that I wrote down like random quotes last night that these women said. When Doree had that, first of all, stunning piece of artwork in her house. It really was. Oh, it's so beautiful. But when she was like, when she was like when other people.
Starting point is 00:08:53 have large photos in their house. It seems a bit narcissistic. But this, how could I not? Like, that... She's like, what am I going to do? Not put this on the wall. I would hang that in my house, to be honest. Like, it was gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:09:08 We are going completely out of order here. So I'm just going to... We're kind of going backwards. Kind of. Actually, yeah. So I was not expecting to get so much information about Amelia and Scott. I... I was excited to hear such candid discussion from Rina, and I loved seeing all of the women kind of react to this news because clearly they all feel some type of way about it.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And I appreciated that Rina sort of like gave them permission to express their feelings about it because it is crazy. You know, like your friend's teenage daughter is dating this guy that is, you know, Kardashians, like all of this. this stuff. They all know how many kids he has. They all know how old he is, like, all of this stuff. And I thought it was really interesting to see how the women responded to it. Yeah. And we even see more next week's episode where with Harry Hamlin, which I'm like, oh my God, oh my God. But yeah, their main point is that she's a teenager. She, Amelia is still a teenager and he is a grown man with three children. So it's like, every, listen, love is love. Like you can fall in love with whoever. But at the same time, I guess when you take a look at it. It's not the life they had planned or wanted for Amelia. Like,
Starting point is 00:10:25 that's not, but it's crazy because Kyle is very outspoken about it. And she's like, it's not. She goes, like, let it ride out, like, let it play out. Let it run its course, basically. And then she's like kind of telling Renal, like, it's not going to, it'll end soon, like, whatever. And it's like kind of crazy because it's like her real relationship. And we've seen on TV, Amelia struggles with other things. So this, I'm just, we've talked about this still. And when we talked about this on our other podcast months ago and I was like, I don't know, age is just a number who really cares. But at the same time, like, I'm scared for if and when they break up and more of a when, not an if because. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:03 To me, like the age itself is like, you know, I like raise my eyebrow at that. I'm not quite sure how I feel. But I think it's more just like the actual dynamic within the relationship and the fact that Scott has. basically done this exact pattern before. Yeah, Erica's like, I'm too old for him. Exactly. By like 20 years. But I think with Rina, it's interesting, she's saying Harry Hamlin is way more chill about
Starting point is 00:11:35 it and she's the one kind of a little bit freaking out. And I think I totally get that from her because it's not so much like I don't want my daughter to date an older man, but more like this guy has clear. Right. He has baggage. He has been in similar situations before and we've seen that it hasn't, you know, led to happy and fulfilling relationships. And another, Kathy Hilton, she goes, listen, from someone who has daughters in the public eye, she goes, it could be worse. And I was like, that is so funny. I appreciate that perspective from Kathy. I thought, you know, she's definitely right. You know, if Amelia, Amelia seems happy. You know, she and Scott, for what it's worth, are still together. It's been like eight months at this point.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Yeah. And she looks really happy. Like they seem happy. I'm not like discounting that. But it is like when your mom is a reality star and her and all of her friends are talking about your relationship on TV when it is still somewhat like new and different. Like I don't know. That's it.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I'm sure she asked Amelia too if it was okay if she can talk about it on the show. Oh, totally. Also, because Rina sat down in the car with Erica when she brought it up and she was like, so Scott Bissick. Like, it was very much like, it wasn't like somebody like brought it up on camera. And then she was like, I guess I'll talk about this. Like she was fully like, we're having this conversation, baby. This episode is brought to you by Prime.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Obsession is in session. And this summer, Prime Originals have everything you want. Steamy romances, irresistible love stories and the book. to screen favorites you've already read twice. Off campus, L, every year after, the love hypothesis, Sterling Point, and more. Slow burns, second chances, chemistry you can feel through the screen.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Your next obsession is waiting. Watch only on Prime. Speaking of dating since we're going backwards now, Garcel is on Bumble, and she said that she had to verify her photo like a bunch of times because people thought she was kept. Fishing them. And I was like, in my head, I was like, wow, dating must be pretty difficult as a celebrity. I wouldn't know. But it, it just probably is something that they have to deal with because it's like, how do you start off, how do you start with like a normal conversation with someone like that? I, I've come across Andy Cohen on Tinder before. On Tinder? Yeah, like, it's been a few years, but I've seen him on on the apps.
Starting point is 00:14:22 Honestly, I feel like all the time on Instagram or whatever that people do show like screenshots. Like Andy Cohen is like popular on the apps. Like he's always on. He's like on there. He's prolific on the app. He's a regular on the apps, I would say. Andy Coen, I mean, whatever. Andy Cohen.
Starting point is 00:14:47 You have a lot in common, Dylan. Andy Cohen likes to have a good time. I feel. Andy, if you're listening to this, call in. Tell us about your dating app habits. Call in. I can't.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Well, I want to hear more about Garcell's three boyfriends. That's what I want to know about. Yeah. It's like we hear that she's on Bumble in one scene. Then Sutton's the one that calls her out for the three boyfriends. And it's like Garcel almost knows what she's doing. to us. Like she knows that she has a lot of information and she's kind of just
Starting point is 00:15:25 spreading it out throughout the episodes because she knows that we want it more. But someone passed away recently that we have to talk about. Kyle. Kyle. Rest in peace.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Kyle the fish did not last very long. It's already. It's upsetting when we see all these Bravo pets pass away. Like it appears. piece of us dies as well. So whatever.
Starting point is 00:15:54 It's, it's a good sign for this season that we didn't spend like a full episode at a goldfish funeral. That's when you know you're in trouble. I guess. Yeah. The moment on Vanderpump rules when we had to watch dogs funeral, like that was when you knew that that show needed a little bit of a kickstart. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:16:16 All right. Well, another scene. This, this episode right now is like, very fun. I feel like we're just like, okay. We're just talking, but we're having like, we're just like, it's a Zen thing. So we're just talking about random scenes in this episode. But the Umansky is bringing home,
Starting point is 00:16:34 Sophia. Oh my God, Portia's reaction. I was laughing and like, it was funny. It was amazing. But the fact that they couldn't hug was even more like stressful to watch this scene because she, I don't know, this is around Christmas time or it's in the, winter at some point during the pandemic.
Starting point is 00:16:53 And I think they're making it known that LA's almost about to shut down for like the second time. But Sophia comes home from college and surprises Portia. And it was just like the sweetest thing. We love seeing the Eumanski's family. I rarely say that last name. But it was so cute. Like I love seeing them as like a family together.
Starting point is 00:17:12 But and Kyle's like words of wisdom as a mother. We used to get so much more, um, of Kyle's daughters on the show. like when, I guess when more of them were at home and, you know, she was, she had like younger kids that she was actually like raising more. But it was nice to see that moment. I'm curious if Sophia is going to be like around in the next few episodes now. I don't know, but I also really want to know if we're going to see more of Portia's bat mitzvah on the show because I need to. I need to. And honestly, put what?
Starting point is 00:17:44 What? Did she get to have like a real bat mitzvah because of COVID? I don't know. But you know what? if Porsche is listening to this episode, I want her to know that she's not the only one that struggles with speaking Hebrew at their bat mitzvah. Like, it's not a, it's like a hard thing.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I feel like every American child that has a bar at Bat Mitzvah struggles with the Hebrew. It is a hard, hard thing. And I remember at mine, one person in my, like, audience came up to me and he was like, you did a really good job. You made a mistake here, but I noticed. I'm sure no one else did. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:18:20 Why did you say, of course I messed up. What do you mean? But he said I only messed up once. Yeah. Like go drink a Shirley Temple and shut the fuck up. I was like, I became a woman today. Get out of my face. No, I, I'm not Jewish, but I went to a school with a lot of Jewish people.
Starting point is 00:18:40 So seventh grade was like a peak of my social life, but I did not ever have to speak Hebrew in front of a crowd. Yeah, they don't call people up on, on. on stage and they're like, hey, do you want to guest speak at my bat mitzvah? We're gearing off the track here. Okay, so we get a couple more little tidbits of information about Erica's divorce situation
Starting point is 00:19:04 this episode. First, I thought it was interesting. She went to the spa with Sutton and it's funny because we think of Sutton as being like the one who's going to be, you know, asking questions and digging around about Erica. But right now,
Starting point is 00:19:20 it seems like she's trying to be super supportive. And it's nice because Sutton is probably the one in this cast who's been in the most similar situation with her divorce. And I thought it was very interesting that she brought up Tom not coming to see Erica in Chicago, which was a point of conversation on last season's reunion. And Erica basically, like at that time was like, oh, you know, he was going to come, but then COVID happened. it's not that big of a deal. Like he's busy. And it was interesting to see her now kind of open up and be like, yeah, it fucking sucked.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Like, yeah, it hurt that he didn't come. I remember watching that and thinking, like, that's very weird that her husband wouldn't have come. Because in last night's episode, she even said, come for 24 hours. Like, you're more, they have the money. They have the planes. They could have done it. Like, it was a doable thing. You literally own a plane.
Starting point is 00:20:14 Like, you can come to New York for once in a three-month period. Yeah, I found it nice, I guess that Sutton made her a divorce package, like a divorce care package while they were getting cryotherapy. It was a whole to do. I don't know. Sutton doesn't do anything without a gift, but she was like naming that Erica was like, oh, okay. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Thank you. Like I feel like Erica is the type of girl who just goes home, eats a tub of ice cream and watches TV, like nothing fancy like that. But I mean, her heart was in the right place, we'll say. But yeah, it is kind of. funny how, like you said, they are similar in the fact, yeah, they're divorced and they're both married to really rich men. So something like not that many people can like, I don't know, talk about or feel similar to. But it's something I feel like when that happens, it's like a big
Starting point is 00:21:05 burden, but something you do have to deal with. Like, Erica was like, don't you think I want, I could have taken a lot of stuff from the house. Oh, bless you. I muted myself so you wouldn't hear the sneeze. I did it. I was like, I didn't like, I don't look, but sorry.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Anyway, Erica was like, don't you think like I could have been like, I'm taking this. I'm taking this. Yeah, but I couldn't. She was like,
Starting point is 00:21:31 Tom's not the type of person to be like, you know what, honey, here you go. And I'm sorry, every time they show these flashbacks of him cutting her off and being like, excuse me,
Starting point is 00:21:40 Erica, I cringe so hard of the like, that's rough. He spoke to her. her in those situations. First of all, it's embarrassing, too, in front of people. But yeah, they're just showing more and more of those scenes. And it's like, do you, girl? It's time. Okay. But then the other interesting thing that came up with Erica, when she was with Rina, Rina asked, or Garcel had said something about seeing Tom out with another woman. And Erica
Starting point is 00:22:08 specifically says that the divorce didn't have anything to do with him. cheating or infidelity or any of that. And it's interesting because thinking back to, I think it was in December, when Erica posted those weird text message screenshots about Justice Trisha A. Bigelow saying this has been like fucking my husband and went to Neiman Marcus and whatnot. Like, that is something, like, I'm going to need an explanation of those specific posts about Trisha A. Bigelow, because it's like, when did that happen if you're saying that divorce had nothing to do with infidelity? And then you posted about Tom cheating and then
Starting point is 00:22:57 you deleted that post and you've never brought it up again. Like, that feels like a piece of the puzzle that right now just like doesn't fit. And so I'm, I want to get an explanation of that and I hope it comes up on the show. What about the fact that she was like, listen, if you're an 81 and a half year old man's going out to get that pussy like more power to you and I was like no you you don't encourage it like that doesn't matter his age he's what are you basically saying oh because he's old like go ahead you can't get any like that that's your husband for a long time people had seen Tom you know like out and about with other women and so I think for a couple years at least people sort of wondered or assumed or thought that they had some kind of arrangement and obviously
Starting point is 00:23:44 Erica never talked about that because Erica never talked about anything, frankly. So, like, that could still be a thing. But that's also part of why when she posted those texts with Trisha that it was like, wait, wait, wait. Like, he's literally been, like, seen on dates with other women and you, like, have never addressed it. So, like, why are you posting this now? And I just, like, I would like some clarification.
Starting point is 00:24:11 I know Erica has not been really doing press or anything. But I would love, like, her full timeline of what happened. Because I feel like right now it's like, obviously on the show, we're getting explanation of some things. Not all of the, you know, legal stuff has come out yet on the show. Garsell said on Watch What Happens Live. Specifically, when these episodes were happening, they didn't know about any of Tom's stuff. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:39 So I will be curious in, like, a few weeks from now, if stuff starts to make more sense or if it really is just like we're being fed a story on housewives and like a lot of the stuff that happens in real life doesn't really gel with that. Let's talk about family karma because this episode was just really nice.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I mean, I feel like we got a lot this episode like from every person on the show. And like I'm loving more and more of these events at their houses and learning more also about what they're doing and seeing all the families like together. It looks so nice all the time.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Like it's like a mix with this show. It's like do we want drama? Yes. Do we want to see all this happiness? Yes. It's like I don't know where I land with this. But I think well with this show I feel like because there is so much family, you know, there are so many like family relationships.
Starting point is 00:25:38 No. There's so much like family stuff on display that that provides the story line that would be on another show like two people fighting or whatever. So like I feel like we don't need as much like reality show drama because we have like actual interesting things happening in their personal lives. Like all this obviously all the stuff with Amrit is super interesting. Like I can't wait to figure out what's happening with Vishal and Ritcha. They seem like they're in a better place for now.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Who knows? You know, like I'm interested. in, you know, Brian and Monica Shah, like what's happening there. They seem to be on the same page in terms of that they're serious about their relationship, but given that it's long distance, like, figuring out what that means. I just feel like there's a lot of real, real story happening so that we don't have to rely on like, like, not every episode has to be about Anish and Monica, like, being petty with each other. right to be honest i actually don't think it was nice seeing brian talk about his relationship with monica
Starting point is 00:26:53 two point out because i actually don't i think i appreciate him being like we talking to people about a timeline because he was like i'm thinking two years whatever and like i think it's better that way because he's clearly not ready for like a commitment like a commitment and it's better not to rush into it when he's like wait well wait what and i and someone was like well how long are you gonna wait. Like, what do you mean? And you need to have that talk. So I think he's just more of like having fun and enjoying being with his family and he kind of likes the dynamic he has with like this long distance relationship. But we'll see with that. I feel like everyone's just so freaking happy. I loved seeing Bali and Amrari at the jewelry store. And Amrit tells Bali that he's
Starting point is 00:27:33 going to propose to Nicholas. I was dying, though, when Bali's picking out jewelry for herself, that's going to be a gift from O'Malley. And the like salesperson tries to show her a micro pave piece. And she's like, well, I don't like the words micro or pave. And they were like, poor O'Malley. And she was like, there's nothing poor about O'Malley. And I was like, girl, I love your energy. It was fun because I feel like on season one, they did show Diwali.
Starting point is 00:28:03 But I feel like they kind of just had like, they showed like one party sort of. And I feel like this season. they, you know, took a little more time and sort of showed us like the different days because like we see the days where they're at home with their families and it's more of like a religious holiday and then the day where it's like the big party at the Patel compound compound. Compound. How did I say? Compound. And I love seeing like the different sort of like stages of this celebration and like, you know, they're saying like, okay, like we're not going to drink today. but then like the next day we party.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Like it's cool to get sort of like a deeper look at like the cultural aspects. Also the fact that Anish and Brian called their moms because they were like, honestly, we don't know what the holidays are and the days are. So like, we'll just ask. And yeah, but also last week I forgot to say that like I've been to a garba before and it is. Oh really? It was one of like the best days of like my life. I'm not even kidding.
Starting point is 00:29:09 It was, it was very fun. They were so like invite, the people who are hosting the party were so like inviting because they all, whoever hosts any of these parties wants is for people to want to enjoy and like learn and have fun. And that's exactly what was going on.
Starting point is 00:29:26 Oh my gosh. I still have my shoot. I don't know if there's a correct name for it, but they have them in the episodes, those sticks that they like banged together. I have them still. I was like, I'll never get rid of these.
Starting point is 00:29:38 They're so. amazing. But yeah, anyway, seeing Amri be so, like, vulnerable in this episode was so nice. And the fact that he was choosing when what conversation Nicholas should be involved in and when he shouldn't and when he was talking to his parents, they were, he called his brother and he was like, we decided Nicholas shouldn't, even though Nicholas is fully aware of what's going on, that the conversation just with his family should be something like more private. I thought it was really great to see him when he told his parents that he was planning on proposing. I really appreciated how much they showed of this conversation with his parents.
Starting point is 00:30:25 And the fact that it was kind of a difficult thing for his mom to sort of wrap her head around. and the fact I liked seeing kind of this like nuanced depiction of it because it's like Amrit's mom like it's not like she isn't okay with his sexuality
Starting point is 00:30:45 it's not like she like doesn't want him to be happy but like showing her having to like put in the work to really like fully be on the same page I thought it was great to see you know because that's real like that's how stuff like this happens
Starting point is 00:31:01 and like obviously it would be be great if he told her and right away she was like, yay, like I'm so excited. But I thought it made the episode like more, you know, impactful that we got to see her kind of working through it. And Amrit's dad was so great at kind of like talking her through this, you know, what's going on and how, you know, it's all going to be good. And like, this is what we have like known was going to happen for like a long time. And like, it's a good thing. And then. then having, kind of transferring that over to the conversation with Nani was like, it felt like such a moment of growth.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Like, obviously it was important for Amrit, but also for his mom to kind of like, like be okay with it on a personal level for her, but then also like step up to the plate and like explain to her mom sort of the whole situation and why it was a good thing. And, you know, like Amrit and Nicholas are going to be happy, like all of this stuff. Like it just was such a nice moment. And I feel like on on Bravo shows in the past, like some of the depictions of like gay people and like LGBT stuff have been like kind of cringe worthy. And so to have like a real like emotional, you know, like full circle moment like this was just really nice to see.
Starting point is 00:32:25 I totally agree. I think the way they had the conversation and filmed it with Nani was wonderful. I think that they explain, because she also forget the fact that she's old school. She's also like she's old. So it's like you have to explain things to her a little differently. And the way they explained it was also hopefully I think this will help other people 100% watching this show.
Starting point is 00:32:53 And I hope it has a really, really positive great impact on others who are struggling in the same way, telling their family or telling, their grandparents were from a different culture, like, or older culture. So I just said that was really nice. And yeah, MVP is Amrit's dad. Like that hit him. He was just so like encouraging to him, encouraging to the mom, like doing just what he was
Starting point is 00:33:20 supposed to be doing as a parent. And it was like, it was very nice to see on Bravo, but. Yeah. And then hopefully we see the actual proposal because I'm sure we will. congratulating Nicholas and they're like no wait nothing like wait you just got through the first step we want to see the proposal no we're definitely going to see the proposal like 100% they were like nani loves you and he was like what and she was like well she's not happy but and he was like yeah i actually that's the thing like i thought it was nice that it didn't feel like sugar coated like it wasn't just like yeah i came out and everyone's happy it's like no it's going to be baby steps like it's going to be there are going to be like there are going to be like like things to figure out. Like they were talking about Nani like being like telling her friends and like are you going to feel comfortable and you know it definitely is a process and like him saying that they're
Starting point is 00:34:12 going to be the first gay wedding like in this Miami like Indian community like that's a big deal and especially for the older generations who like most or all of them are immigrants and like maybe where they come from it's something that's like really not accepted like it is a big deal and I think it's cool that we're getting to see that. Yeah. I love family karma. I know. I'm like, don't sleep on family karma.
Starting point is 00:34:40 But also I like seeing more about Monica's dad too because their divorce was clearly something that, like, affected their friends, their friendships and everything. So the fact that he's more comfortable coming to more social events and like having fun. And it's nice to see that he feels good. like comfortable being there. And like they showed like them taking pictures and them all together and that it was a bit of a struggle when it first happened. But now it's almost seems like they're back to normal. I don't know if we're going to see her parents like in the same scene together. But you know what?
Starting point is 00:35:18 That's as long as it's. Yeah. I don't know if that's in the cards, but I'll whatever. I'm just glad that he feels comfortable like being around their social circle again. Because that was serious. I love. Oh, my God. Raj.
Starting point is 00:35:29 the moms and their in their confessionals are too much. Like, seriously, too much. It's, they just have like these jokes. They laugh. They're like talking about their TV shows. And I feel like they had more airtime last night than the, than the kids. You know, also I might have to go get a Wendy's spicy crispy chicken sandwich after this,
Starting point is 00:35:51 like, oppa. My God. That email? That email. So specific. And so, like, the fact that they showed it, I can't. Oh, my God. He sent a picture of the chicken sandwich from Wendy's.
Starting point is 00:36:07 I, listen. It looks kind of good. I know you're not. You don't eat me. But it, you know, listen, when I got to, you got to call it as it is. It looked really good. Well, that, I got to go get that chicken sandwich. So I think that's going to, that's going to do it for us today.
