Mention It All - The Battle of the Bangs (RHOSLC)

Episode Date: November 21, 2024

Dylan is back for one more episode this week, and he starts with the tea (or rather, the scoop) from a very silly Bravo event in NYC this week. Then, he reacts to the Southern Hospitality trailer, and looks ahead to the packed Bravo lineup for the beginning of 2025. Then, he heads to SLC in 17C, recapping this week’s episode from top to bottom. While Bronwyn and Heather make a tenuous truce, Meredith Marks is as activated as ever, with Angie bearing the brunt of her anger. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome back to the Mention It All podcast. Oh, we have made it to the end of another week, at least in Mention It All, land. I am actually recording this a little bit early. By the time you hear this, I will be on my way to Miami for Bravo Fanfest. But we're recording, like, EOD Wednesday. And you know, it's getting to be close to wintertime and I'm recording at home right now and it is fully fucking pitch black outside, which I don't record in the evening very often.

And I kind of wish I had a drink in my hand right now. Like I wish somebody was like, you know, I wish like the Watch What Happens Live crew was here like bringing me my preferred cocktail. Instead, I am pretty much wearing my pajamas hammering out this episode. I have yet to pack a single thing or even get my suitcase out to go to Miami. But, you know, we're going to make it happen all in due time. Thankfully, I was able to watch this week's episode of Salt Lake City just a little bit early. So we're going to talk about that. I also have some fun Salt Lake City, I guess shenanigans stories to tell because yesterday I

had the chance to go to the Van Luen ice cream shop at Rockefeller Center in New York City because they are doing a collaboration flavor with Bravo in honor of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. It's called the SLC Scoop. And so they unveiled this on social media, I think last week. And yesterday they had this event to launch the flavor, which I believe is available in Van Llewin stores, scoop shops, if you will, to use their terminology across the country. I don't know if you can get it in grocery stores or anywhere else. It's like a lavender salted caramel flavor. It was yummy.

The lavender is subtler than you might think. The appearance of the ice cream is quite purple, which was a little off-putting. But the flavor was nice. It was like a subtle hint of lavender with some sort of salted caramel swirl. You know, it's, I guess the salt is like for Salt Lake City, and the purple is just kind of like the color that Bravo has chosen to signify this franchise. guys. I don't know. So they invited me to this event. It was really cute. This Van Lewin store in Rockefeller Center, they had basically decked it out with custom Salt Lake City stuff. They had like some quote cards and purple and silver tinsel and mini sprinter vans and just like they had a bedazzled ice cream

scooper. And of course, Mary Cosby, Bronwyn and Angie Kay were in attendance. They were our lovely ice cream scoopers for the day. And it was, it was so funny to see them in this context, because I, I've had the, the good fortune to have Angie and Bronwyn on the podcast already this season. Both came in studio. Both were lovely. I mean, just truly like, I would say, I mean, I've, I've met and talked to a lot of housewives. And it's a separate thing of who is like my favorite on the show and who I have the best experience. with IRL. And sometimes those match up, sometimes they don't.

This is not to say anything negative about Angie or Bronwyn on the show because, you know, certainly I'm enjoying them a lot on the show. But like both of them just were so like chill when I met them. And so it was funny to see them like in this ice cream shop sort of like performance art setting really. Bronwyn showed up in both an ice cream cone gown and with an ice cream cone bedazzled Judith Lee were clutch bag. The dress I actually did look up online, it was Dolce and Gabana

2017. So I'm so curious whether she had that in her closet or whether that was a purchase specifically for that event, because really I could see either being true. Honestly, I was a little surprised she didn't show up in like a full like ice cream cone like outfit, like in the shape of an ice cream cone with like a little cherry on top of her head. I thought she was going to go for it a little more. She went for the Sheeker route, I would say. But, Angie and Bronwyn aside, I was really fascinated to see Mary Cosby in the flesh because I have never met her before. I've never been in her presence before.

She is the only one out of this whole cast on Salt Lake City. I mean, aside from, like, Brittany, who's new, I've met the rest of them. I've had most of them on the podcast at this point. I've gotten a good amount of FaceTime with the Salt Lake City cast, but Mary Cosby is kind of like, she's like a mirage. She's like an endangered species. It's hard to get eyes on her in real life. I feel like she went to, like Kathy Hilton did a Christmas party for DirecTV a couple

years ago that I feel like she randomly popped up at in like a blue robe-looking dress. But Mary, Mary doesn't like make the rounds very much. I don't think she's ever been to a BravoCon, which is kind of wild. You don't see her out and about much. So when Mary showed up at this ice cream shop on a Tuesday morning at like 11 a.m. wearing aviator sunglasses and like the pin straight like bust down wig, she looked so good, like so just correct. Mary's a tough cookie to crack.

I don't know exactly how I feel about her as a person, sometimes on the show, but like there is something that is just so captivating about her and like seeing her in the flesh, seeing her scooping ice cream, scooping. She was so focused too. Angie and Bronwyn were kind of like having fun with it, cutting up a little bit.

I posted this video. If you haven't seen it, it's on Bravo by Betches. of Angie and Bronwyn doing this little like Greek history stick where Angie was saying that the Greeks invented ice cream because of course she was. Meanwhile, like Mary's off to the side, fully like in the zone trying to scoop this ice cream. And then they had like off to the side, they had like little snowflake cutouts that went on the ice cream and like spoons and napkins. And the way that she was like taking her time to like place the snow. know where it went to put the spoon in the ice cream to get a she grabbed like a stack of napkins it just

was like i feel like mary is very like task oriented like she kind of only do one thing at a time and watching that one thing for about two minutes be scooping ice cream was just where else can you see that what like what is my life that on tuesday morning i'm at rockefeller center watching mary Cosby scoop ice cream. I don't know. It was cute. They did a really great job with the event. If you are, you know, able to go out and try the ice cream, it's fun. Why not? I don't know. The other little bit of news that I want to get into before we talk about Salt Lake City proper, other than the ice cream scooping, is that we did get the trailer. Today as I'm recording, yesterday as you're listening to this, for Southern Hospitality, Season 3. This show, I feel like,

quietly has become very consistent. You know, they clearly, clearly Bravo is pleased enough with it to keep it coming back. I think Leva is a really good sort of talent partnership with them. She's maybe not the most important person in the Southern Charm cast, but because she has this kind of other property, it makes sense to keep her around. And season two of Southern hospitality, I think, was actually sort of sneakily really good. And I think that it was, it maybe sort of got lost in some of the other conversations that were happening around the time.

I don't remember exactly when it was airing or what else was happening. But I feel like we didn't talk about it quite enough. And so when they went away, you're kind of like, I guess it got renewed. We'll see when it comes back. And then I watched the trailer for season three. And all of a sudden, excuse me,

was I supposed to know that Maddie and Joe Bradley are a serious couple now? I guess I missed a few chapters there. So apparently Maddie and I think Trevor, that like absolute fuck boy that she was dating for the first couple seasons on and off. They're, they're done. And now Joe Bradley, who was briefly seeing Danielle Oliveira, if you recall, they were done. They didn't last very long. Joe has been following around Maddie like an abandoned dog since season one.

I mean, I'm sure since before season one, he was like obsessed with her. And it felt like Maddie was like, you're never going to get it. Like, I'm dating some other guy who doesn't respect me. You're not my type, whatever. I mean, Joe Bradley, I think is a very handsome, but like he's not like, I wouldn't say he's like an alpha. which maybe that's a good thing. Maybe that's what some people need. I mean, clearly the other type wasn't working out for Maddie.

But I'm like, wait, wait, wait. You like him now? Really? And the trailer starts with them having a wedding in Vegas. Now, I don't know if this is a real wedding. I hope for all of their sakes that it's not. But like, they're doing the thing. They're like fucking Anora and the Russian guy.

If you haven't seen Anora, that's going to make it. make no sense to you. But go see Anora. It's really good. But anyway, I mean, there's a lot going on in this trailer. There's a new, like, general manager, assistant. I don't know. All the job titles at Republic, I'm kind of like, who cares? Who's like the VIP manager and the sales associate and the general manager and the assistant? I'm like, I don't have the org chart memorized for Republic bar and lounge. But I am interested to see, you know, like who's going to show up late to their shift wearing the wrong dress this year, because that was maybe my favorite thing of last season. But there's like a new hot guy. There's, I think there's like four new people in the cast.

There's a new, there's some new girlies. There's some new hot guys. There's more accusations that Will has been cheating on Emmy. You know, he's fucked half of the law school, apparently, allegedly. I don't know. This is a show where now that it's coming back for the third season, I feel like I need to lock in a little bit more and actually know who everyone is if I'm going to keep watching it and talking about it. Because thus far, it has definitely been like an out of sight, out of mind kind of show. And to be honest, even when it's in sight, it's like half out of mind. Like, this is a show that I put on while I'm doing other stuff for work. People all the time are like, oh my God, it's so fun that your job is just watching TV.

And I'm like, it's like not no, but also like I have to do the other parts of my job too. And when Bravo is putting on like eight shows a week, that doesn't leave very much time. And speaking of this schedule, so Southern Hospitality is premiering January 2nd, which is a Thursday. It's a Thursday, right? January 2nd. Now I have to look at the calendar. God. The years start coming and they don't stop coming.

Yes, January 2nd is a Thursday. So this show is going to be airing on the same night as Southern Charm. Obvious connection. That seems like a good programming decision. But just looking at what we have, if we are looking at that first couple weeks of January, we are going to have Sunday nights with Potomac and Married to Medicine, back to back. Married to Med, coming back on Sunday. Are you ready for it?

I'm excited. Married to Med, if you recall, is a show that I usually don't talk about like every single week, but I will hop in a few times a season. I've had some of the ladies on the podcast. I think it's so underrated still to this day. Definitely recommend I will be checking out the new season for sure. That's Sundays. Monday, below deck, whatever below deck franchise is on, I assume we'll be on on Mondays.

Tuesdays. Beverly Hills. started. New York, I think by January will still be wrapping up because, you know, January is only six weeks away. Next week is Thanksgiving. Then it's December. Then we have like two, two weeks. Then it's Christmas. Then it's New Year's. What the fuck? I'm looking at the schedule for the rest of the year. I'm like, I don't have time for anything. I'm going to Miami now. It's, the calendar all of a sudden feels like it could fit on a post-it note for the rest of the year.

There's not very much time. Beverly Hills, New York on Tuesdays. Wednesdays, Salt Lake City, they've still got some episodes left in the tank. And then, first week of December, we have sold on SLC, which I talked about when the trailer came out, that real estate show that looks selling sunset and Secret Lives and Mormon Wives coded. Those are going to be back-to-back. Lake City Wednesday. Thursday, we're going to have Southern Charm and Southern hospitality. You guys, that's too many shows. I haven't even been watching below deck this season. New York, I feel like I can

start to sort of give a little bit of a pass. But we're still looking at six or seven things a week that feel important. And then knowing that we have a new season of Atlanta done, that has to be coming soon-ish. They are going to have Atlanta women in Miami this weekend for fan fest. So I feel like if we're not getting a trailer, at least soon, I would say maybe usually Atlanta has been a Sunday show, so maybe they'll wait till after Potomac is done. That might be like February. But that feels like a long way away for a show that's finished filming. I don't know what they're going to do. We have, um, Summerhouse? Where the fuck is Summerhouse going to go? I guess, I guess Summerhouse might be like Tuesday nights once New York is over?

Does that even make sense? And then what are they doing with the Valley? The Valley's been done filming. Now, normally we would have Vanderpump rules coming around the bend toward the beginning of the year. They've not shot a second of that. If whatever is happening. But I'm just, we have a lot on the calendar right now

and we have a lot on the calendar for the next few months. I am getting slightly nervous about that like midsection of next year. Remember back in May when we had zero housewives shows airing? I'm, I'm a petite bit worried that we might be running into that type of situation again. But I am going to enjoy the boom times while they're here. So good, so good.

Done hoping it looks anything like the picture when you tear open that envelope. It's time for a little in-person spring treat. It's time for a trip to Ross. Work your magic. Let's stop spiraling about the schedule and talk about Salt Lake City for at least a few minutes here. I did not plan to take, what is it, 16 minutes I've been yapping before getting into Salt Lake City this week. luckily I do feel like this was a bit of a chiller episode. Well, perhaps not chill. Never chill, really. This was coming back from this Palm Springs trip. I think we sort of regrouped a little bit. We had some kind of, you know, loose ends to tie up. We start with this weird, bizarre, bizarre intro of Mary Go Lightly and breakfast at Mary's. Look, I feel like Mary Cosby is kind of just kooky enough on her own that I don't know

if we actually need to give her like a cartoon cookie edit to like drive home the experience of Mary Cosby, or Mary Go Lightly, I'm sorry. Like she is already, she's her own Norma Desmond. She's her own, she's like Lady Tremaine in Cinderella. She doesn't need them to like put, you know, cartoon characters and funny little graphics around the side of the screen. Like, that's the Mary experience already. Have you seen those fucking Flup's Fugley chairs she has in her kitchen? She's already there.

But anyway, she's going to be hosting a big lunch. That's our, you know, tease for the episode. these butlers are wearing the god-awful Tiffany blue suits. It's like when you rent a tux for your junior prom and you're like, oh, you could have a turquoise accent or a red accent. And it's like, oh, great, there's going to be like scraggly 16-year-old boys wearing like turquoise blue vests and pocket squares. Delightful. Oh, Mary is always such a trip.

But cut to Lisa and Heather going to Kimosabe. Of course, Gimosabe, where, you know, you know, You know, Kathy Hilton has had a million meltdowns about Kendall Jenner's tequila. But that's the Kimosabi and Aspen. Here we're in Utah. So very different. You know, couldn't be more different. And by that, I mean that instead of Kendall Jenner's tequila, there's like conspicuously placed bottles of Vita behind the bar.

Look, if there's one thing Lisa Barlow is going to do, it's make sure that she's filming at a location that serves Vita tequila. And I respect that. Do you know how much effort she probably puts in to, making sure, I mean, first of all, if you have an alcohol brand, a big part of the job of owning an alcohol brand or representing an alcohol brand is like going to vendors and being like, hi, please carry my thing. So it's, you know, it's probably a little bit of like, I'll scratch your back, you scratch mine. It's like you're, you want some publicity for your restaurant. You put a Vita craft cocktail on the menu and then I'll bring real housewives of Salt Lake

City here and they'll have all this B-roll footage of the front door of your restaurant. it's like a whole little cottage industry in Salt Lake City, I bet, but, you know, whatever. There are Kimosabe to talk about basically why Heather wasn't on this trip to Palm Springs. And Lisa, Lisa shares kind of the explanation that Bronwyn had and how it didn't line up with what Heather had said. And, you know, Heather hears what Lisa has to say and she disagrees with everything that Bronwyn said. And to be honest, like the Heather and Bronwyn stuff, I don't want to say it's not. interesting because, like, I'm, I'm interested in, in the two of them and their relationship or lack thereof. But, like, the actual specific reasons that they haven't gotten along feel like

kind of neither here nor there. Even, like, when I was, when I had Bronwyn on the show earlier this week, if you haven't listened to that episode, it came out on Monday, like, Bronwyn right off the bat when I asked her was like, yeah, like, I could have just like said sorry more directly. And then it would have been fine, maybe. And I think that's the thing. Like, Heather is clearly the kind of person who goes about situations in ways that aren't always like the most straightforward. She sometimes is like, you know, she can be gossipy. She can be like, sneaky with her words or whatever. But it's like, at the end of the, day. Like, what real beef do Bronwyn and Heather have? Okay, Heather's asked why she doesn't have

a pre-up a couple times. Is that a little bit shady? Sure. But also, like, why don't you have a pre-up? Right? Like, I think that it is something that I think Heather should be able to own that when she asks, she maybe is being a little shady, but I also think it's not something that needs to be, like, World War III over Heather making a comment about the pre-up. But the more interesting thing, that Lisa drops the little breadcrumb to Heather, and then Heather picks it up and drops it right back at the end of the episode, is that Lisa says that at the Palm Springs trip, after Lisa and Bronman had had their little spat, let's say,

you know, when Lisa facetamed Heather from the pool and then Bronman was like, that's weird. Todd told John Barlow in this like bar area that basically if Bronman and Lisa couldn't work out their issues, that Lisa and John should leave the trip. Okay. So first of all, I don't love the way that Todd is sort of like getting involved in the group mechanics. Like, I think that that is, it feels a little bit like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain, like pulling the levers. It's like, just let it unfold.

Let Dorothy, you know, get, like, thrown around by the witch a little bit. I don't know if that metaphor makes sense. I'm very wicked-pilled right now. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I can't wait. But also, I don't love the way that Todd is getting involved with Bronwyn's emotions. And the scene that we see of Todd and Bronwyn at home is so disconcerting to me because I feel like, look, we have seen many a toxic marriage, a toxic relationship on Bravo, on Real Housewives. And that can look a lot of different ways. And I don't think, I don't think that Bronwyn and Todd have a toxic relationship per se, but I think they have a very strange dynamic to see from an outside perspective. I'll say that. That I think the way that, the way that they communicate with each other, clearly in a lot of ways, they are similar and that they enjoy each other's quirks and things like that. It seems like they are a good couple. But the way that in this specific instance, Todd is comfortable or, you know, it feels natural for him to be sort of policing Bronwyn's reactions to things and emotions and ways of handling things.

Like, she's a, she's an adult. If she wants to yell at her friend for saying something that she didn't like, there's a difference between approaching that from it, hey, you seem really upset. What can I do to make you feel better or to support you in this situation or to, you know, to help it go better next time? That feels supportive. What he's doing feels like he's shutting her down. And he's like, weird, he's like giving her notes on saying that it's not becoming of her

to be yelling. Okay. it's not becoming of you to be like on your phone all day in New York. Like, it's just, I don't know. To tell a woman, it's not becoming of you. I was going to say like, what year is it? But I guess for him, like, it might be like 1960. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't want to like, I don't want to jump to a conclusion and be like, Todd's the worst. We hate him. It just is like not a great look. And I also feel like there is a certain level of like, bro, you're on this show now. You're on camera. Making your wife look bad kind of.

Making yourself look bad. Like that to me is the bigger. That's what's more surprising to me is that he as this like high powered businessman isn't a little more cognizant of like, oh, I'll wait to like be kind of a dick to you. until after the cameras are gone. Not that that's better, because obviously, like, when things happen behind closed doors, that's a whole other can of worms. It just is like, I, I'm surprised that if he doesn't want Bronwyn to be on the show

yelling at someone in the pool, I'm surprised he wants himself to be on the show, chastising his wife for yelling at someone in the pool. I don't know. I do just want to spend a minute on this scene with Angie and her dad because I was so, moved by that. Angie is someone that I feel like, you know, she's been on the show for a couple seasons. We, of course, know how important being Greek is to her. We know that she loves

Elektra. We know that she loves Sean and that they have these salons. It's not like we know nothing about her. But I don't think of Angie as a housewife that we are like super connected to on like a personal level. I enjoy her a lot. I think she's a I think she's a kind-hearted person for the most part. But her opening up about the fact that her mom died when she was eight, Angie's words are she was self-medicating with alcohol in the final years of her life. And hearing Angie talk about this kind of emptiness that she's felt around that sort of love and attention that you're supposed to get from your mother, that her mother was, you know, not. not around for very long in her life. And even before that, it sounds like it was a complicated relationship. And the story about that there was a necklace that she had, her friends had given

to her daughter to honor her mother and that she felt no connection to it. First of all, I did, I did kind of have to laugh. I mean, we can see both sides. I had to laugh at her starting the story with the other day I was detangling electric necklaces. Of course you were Angie. Respectfully. Of course you were detangling Elektra's necklaces the other day. But like this story kind of like opening up a channel into something that Angie, it seems like, has really struggled with. And maybe just now at like 50 years old, she just, Angie just turned 51 over the weekend actually. She looks great, by the way. She's like fantastic in person.

That this is something she has really like held for 40 plus years. And just now is maybe starting to be able to kind of work through it more easily. And we see how emotional she gets. I just, I thought that was a really nice scene. Her dad is adorable. I mean, I love my Angie. I just, she's such a nice presence. And all she wants is an apology from Meredith that she's never going to get.

She's going to spend the next 40 years mad at Meredith. That's the real truth. Good sleep is everything. That's why Ali's science back support is made with a blend of melatonin and L-theonine for both kiddos and grown-ups. So when your mind won't switch off, you've got something that can help.

There's varying levels of participation in the theme, I'd say. We have Whitney and Meredith, who are pretty directly Breakfast at Tiffany's coated. I guess Angie's kind of on that wavelength, too. Bronwyn does the clip in bangs. I don't know if the yellow outfit is like a nod to anything. Lisa just shows up wearing a Tiffany blue fendi jumpsuit, which I guess breakfast at Tiffany's, sure. The main takeaway from that is that it's the same outfit that Mary wore on Watch What Happens Live.

And it's funny for Lisa to be like, well, I was sitting front row at the runway show, so I was actually the first person who saw it. So maybe Mary bought it at Bergdorf, but I saw it first. And it's like, my love, Lisa, in this game, it doesn't really matter who saw it first. It matters who wore it and got photographed in it first. And I thought that was a, it was a weird little, it was a weird little miss from Lisa. I feel like if she remembered that Mary wore it on Watch What Happens Live, she wouldn't have chosen to wear it on the show. But also, it's not that cute.

It looks like one of those like flight suits that Greta Gerwig wore on the set of Barbie every day, which it works on Greta Gerwig when she's on the set of Barbie and doesn't want to have to think about her outfit. It's not like that chic to me. And it probably was extremely expensive. I don't know. We're not here to talk about fast. fashion. The biggest reveal for me at this whole breakfast that I just cannot get over is, so Britney is

there, by the way, we haven't seen Britney in a minute. So Britney's upset that nobody reached out to her other than Mary after she wasn't in the Palm Springs trip, yada, yada, yada, she's dragging Angie for bringing the wine to church and I don't... My patience is running thin with the Britney stuff. But she... Meanwhile, in the confessional,

Mary reveals that Jared Osmond has been in her DMs, saying that she's like a beautiful soul and a child of God. There is something to me. I feel like there is something more, somehow it feels more aggressive to be in someone's DMs, calling them like a child of God and a beautiful soul, than to just like send a dick pick. At a certain point, like it almost feels like there's like a,

a weirder, like, twisted motive at play when you're sending me a paragraph about how Jesus loves me and how, whatever, it's like, and Mary knows, Mary knows Jesus loves her. That's the only, that's her number one trait is being loved by Jesus. Oh, if, if Jared Osmond ever sent me that to you, I would throw my phone into like a biohazard waste container. Get, get the behind me, Satan. also like Mary's married right like she is still married right I know we haven't seen her husband on this season

but like Jared get a fucking life get a clue get a life get a grip get out of here enough but I love that Mary's not going to tell Jared or Mary's not going to tell Brittany because she doesn't want to be in that soap opera I'm like honestly good for you girl run for the hills

but suddenly Bronwyn and Brittany are going out it again over all the things Brittany has said about Bronwyn's marriage, which I mean, yeah, kind of like, as much as I don't think Bronwyn's issues with Heather are that justified? I kind of get why she's mad at Brittany. I feel like Britney. Britney's like, yep, said that, said that. Well, I did say that. But then Heather brings up the pre-up again. Bronwyn is like, stop knocking on that door because I'm going to open it and you're not going to like it. And Heather's like, open it, bitch. They're saying that she only knows three things about Todd. That they don't have a pre-up,

that he collects Starbucks mugs, which I love Mary's little. grimace at, and that he's an asshole when he wants someone to leave a trip. And this, of course, is her way of bringing back up the information that she could only know from Lisa Barlow. And I love the little moment where Bronwyn's like, cute, Lisa. And Lisa's just like, cute from me? What? It's such a stupid little moment. But God, it just, these girlies just make me giggle. And then we're back to talking about the flight, the horrid 17C coach flight back from Palm Springs to Salt Lake City, the 57 minute, just back of the plane, practically in the toilet. 17C coach flight.

There's also this weird thing of, like, Bronwyn, there's a disagreement where Heather is, like, I don't believe that you actually wanted me to come on the trip, and Bronwyn's like, I already had a flight booked for you, which I wouldn't have done if I didn't want you to come on the trip. And Heather doesn't believe her because she didn't ask her for her, like, date of birth to book the flight. And Bronman's like, I got it from someone else, which I'm sorry, that means that. she got it from production.

You cannot convince me. I don't even necessarily believe that Bronwyn was like, I put down my credit card for the flight. I believe she put down her credit card for her own first class upgrade. I don't think she was buying Lisa Barlow's coach ticket. That's what Bravo pays for. Whatever. But to me, it's like, yeah, if you're booking flights for the cast,

you're just going to ask production for everybody's info, because they already have it. truly this to me is not something that's worth even arguing about. But, like, Heather's mad. She knows she's coming on strong, but she's very hurt about this Palm Springsrip, which, like, I really don't think she wanted to go on that bad. But then they have, like, all of a sudden, a breakthrough where Bronwyn says that Heather has a very wrong opinion of her, but she's still willing to get to know her.

And Heather sounding more angry than anyone has ever sounded is like, I am absolutely open to clean slate moving forward. You don't sound like it? I don't know. I am not confident that Bronwyn and Heather are going to have a great time together moving forward. But hey, maybe they will. Brittany wants her own kumbaya moment. Wow, I'm going along here. She apologizes for what she said about Todd. Great. I'm glad. I'm sure she and Bronman are going to have a fruitful friendship as well. And this is where things really go off the rails because Angie says she wants to talk with Meredith. Meredith is like spiraling again about how she doesn't want to go backwards, even though she's the one who is like, you're trying to go backwards.

And Angie's like, no, I'm trying to move forward. But then Angie all. of a sudden is like, well, back in Palm Springs two years ago when you said you want me to go there with husband. And then the LGBT community was actually really supportive of me because it seemed like you were trying. And then you said that your son was gay. So, and Meredith's just being like, you have a constant habit of deny, deny, deny. Maradette is so mad. Like what, who like pissed in her Cheerios that morning? Seriously. It's a little. much. She brings out her phone to play the clip of Sean talking on the podcast, which is the crux of this whole thing, which again, I just could not care less about. I'm enjoying it, but I couldn't

care less about. Whitney grabs her phone to turn up the volume, and this is the moment from the trailer, which just made me cackle, because Whitney's trying to, like, turn up the volume and Meredith charges across the table, and it's like, stop scrolling on my phone. She's so mad. Ooh, she's so angry, as Lisa Rina would say. Just weird, weird, weird. Meredith is just like screaming, screaming, screaming. And Mary's like, if you're not going to stop screaming, get out of my house. And then Meredith is like, so you're kicking me out of your house? And she's like,

no, I want you to stop screaming. Then Meredith's her, she says she's leaving. It's a goddamn mess. But I enjoyed it. This was fun. I had fun. Did we have fun? Did we all have fun? I hope you had fun. I hope you have a great weekend. Thank you for listening. Bravo Fan Fest this weekend. Again, like I said yesterday, If you are at Bravo Fanfest and you see me, come say hi.
