I can't see the full letter, but that is so sweet. Oh, I love that. She's so funny. By the way, she is, she is a very funny Instagram and she sings. Oh, she sings. She sings really well and she's hysterical. She's actually so funny with a lot of the things she said. She's Italian.

Yeah, she's Italian in Canada, I believe. And a lot of my family follows her too and they all think she's so funny. There's a lot of Italians in Canada. There is. You remember we did an appearance in Canada once and there was a ton of Italians there. We had no idea. I'm coming to do comedy. I'm going to Canada, baby.

Yeah. I really had no idea. Oh, it's Jersey Dolls with three S's. Jersey Dolls, S-S-S at the end. But she's hysterical. She's a good follow. I mean, listen, if you like following stuff about the Real Housewives of New Jersey, guys, she talks about them, but she also does just funny stuff. Anyway, Joe, how are you doing? How's life? I'm great. I'm great. You want to tell everybody what you did today and what happened to you today?

Please. Wait, I know how we could start the conversation. This is the random text I get from my husband today at I'll tell you the time. Let's see what time Joe Gorga texts this to me today Yeah, you text me this at Tell everybody now three oh seven p.m. You said I just got fingered in my ass OMG And then you wrote horrible. Oh my God.

I'm still hurt. This is the text that I got from my husband at three o'clock today. Okay. Would you like to tell the people why you had a finger in your asshole today? Do you want to tell the people? That's good. See, it's bad enough that we live on a reality show. Now I gotta tell everybody everything.

It's sad, this is fucked up. I mean, it's a very common thing. You're 49, so it's a very common thing to get done. Well, should we tell everybody, first off, why you were pushed to do it? You're getting this whole, so I'm forcing Joe to get like this whole health check and scan. He's that guy like that doesn't go to the doctor.

His family, you guys all are like the doctor. We don't go to the doctor. Like you're- No, no, my dad went. My mom did it. I mean towards the end, but like. I never went to the doctor. I don't even have a doctor.

I don't even know, you know, if I go there, I'm lost. Yeah. They say, who's your doctor? I don't have a doctor. I don't even have a doctor. I don't even know. You know, if I go there, I'm lost. Yeah. They say, who's your doctor? I don't have a doctor. Yeah. I schedule everything for him. I always made him appointments for, and he never showed up to any of them. I'd be like, Joe, you have a doctor's appointment.

Okay, okay. Cancel it. I can't go. Cancel the dentist. Cancel it. You are just, you can't make it to an appointment. It's insane. Well, finally I am making it to the appointment.

So Melissa, but here's why. Let's just. Well, finally I am making it to the appointment. So Melissa, but here's why. Let's just give a quick background on why I had like, I had a really good girlfriend that told me you need to talk to this psychic slash medium type woman. She's really great. She says, she tells me, Oh my God, she like blows our mind. And I truly don't believe in a lot of that stuff. Like I'm the one who's not great at like believing it all or listening to it all. I'm very doubtful. Like I feel like I'm just not like so open to it where I get like the best information. So I did it and wasn't super impressed, but she did say a couple things. She said the tree in my front yard, which I have a very, very large tree in my front yard. And it's

really the last man standing out there. Like that's massive and big, right? Is my father. She told me that. Which, which I believe that the tree. No, but then I said to her, you might have got confused with the fact there is a tree. My dad hit a tree when he died driving a car and broke his neck and instantly passed away. So I said, are you, is that the tree or you just, are you seeing a tree because that's how my dad died, you know? But she said the tree in my front yard is dad my dad oh Joey Gorgas calling come on what oh your practice starts at 7 Joey no you don't get you get loud 630 You need to be there at 7. I call you back. We're on a podcast

All right, so get dressed get dressed here you're gonna get there just for 7 o'clock get ready. Goodbye. Oh My god, so anyway, um The trees like my dad and I was like, okay, I was open to listening to that. Now I look at that tree so differently every time I drive by it every day. Sometimes I just talk to it. Sometimes I'm like, Hey dad. And I kind of feel like a weirdo as I'm pulling out of my driveway. Well, we do come back and they say when you die, you come back either you come back as

a bird or dog. You know, I've never heard a tree, but I believe in it. You got to believe if you believe You things come true you like I went to a meeting when my mom passed away And I believed everything she said and it made me feel so good that she's still alive in heaven and it felt amazing Okay, she they said she they say no you said that Coco my good friend Coco said that like I had a couple friends Steve He said like a couple friends spoke to and and they find it Flabbergast like they are blown away, but for me, I'm never ever blown away with my parents are red Robbins. That's what they told me

Oh, I thought they were the swans No, the red Robbins. Oh, so I do see red. Sometimes I pulled down my driveway to red robins. I went to the old house, went to the old house a month ago, two months ago, pulled into the old house where we are old house that we sold. Yeah. Went went pulled into the driveway to red robins. Really? Yeah. Crazy. That's crazy. Yeah. So they told me my dad, I thought my dad was a blue j originally. So whenever I see a blue j, I think it's him whenever I see a butterfly, I think it's my grandmother. I mean, we all have these things, right? But anyway, back to my little psychic reading I had a couple months ago, besides telling me that the tree in the front yard is my father, she told me that the one thing she did say, and this is why I don't like talk because it stresses me out.

She's like, oh, Joe, tell Joe he needs to check his prostate. And I got nervous. I don't like that. So I have been bugging him. We've had a lot of vacations recently and a lot of things going on. So he hasn't had a chance. But today was his appointment to get full bone body scan everything. We're doing a heart scan on

you we're like checking the whole situation this is let me tell you some matter a horrible experience horrible it wasn't horrible tell the real truth first of all you know what I find funny I had no idea it was our friend like he's an actual parent at school that our son plays football with. Okay. This is bad. It's just going to get worse and worse, this story. So I went to my cardiologist.

He's a doctor in town and he's amazing. Cardiologist is a heart doctor. Yeah, that's why I say he's my heart doctor, but he's the one that also called me at the same time, a couple days later after Melissa said that to me, he goes, listen, I've been thinking about you. You gotta get your checkups. So I went to see him and he set up all these appointments. So all the doctors that he set up live in town.

So I show up. Just live in a town of doctors here in Franklin Lakes. So our assistant set up all the appointments appointments so I'm just showing up. I don't even know where I'm going. I just get an address, I show up, go to the second floor, I go into this doctor's office, I'm sitting in the waiting room, here he comes, Dr. Esposito. I go, holy shit. I go, what are you doing?

He goes, I'm a good-ass. I said, what am I doing here? What is this? He goes, he's actually a penis doctor. Yeah, that has a specific name. Our member who we lived across the street from in Montville also was a penis doctor. There's a name for that. What's the proper name? A urologist. It's a urologist. Yes, yes, yes. That's a penis

doctor. So he's like, do you have any problems? Do you have anything? I go, No, no, I'm pretty good. I go, it's up there. It's strong. Every morning. It's ready to rock and roll. He's like, do you have any problems? Do you have anything? I go, no, no, I'm pretty good. I go, it's up there, it's strong. Every morning it's ready to rock and roll. He's on command. I got no pain. He needs a chill pill is what he needs. So he's like, all right, we start talking.

He goes, so you're here for just, I said, I'm just here for a checkup. He goes, okay, drop your pants. And he pulls out a rubber glove and I go, what are you gonna do? I thought he was gonna make me cough. You know what he used to do? When you go to school, see, you don't know, you're a woman.

No, I know. The men, the boys go there and they stick the hands next to your balls and they make you cough. So I'm like, all right. I never got that, why is that? I don't know, I really don't know why they do that. So I'm just standing there and he goes, drop your pants. I'm like, okay.

So I dropped my pants, but then he starts pulling out this KY and he puts it all on my- Oh my God, I'm dead. I go, Doc, what are you gonna do with that? We literally see him at like the events and stuff around town. I go, Doc, what are you gonna do with this? He goes, turn around.

He goes, just now, now just bend over. I go, Doc. He goes, I'm checking for cancer. But how could he tell with his finger? I was so embarrassed. You were? Oh yeah. Did you feel embarrassed? Why? He probably sees this. He does this every day. I'm embarrassed. I drop my pants. He goes bend over a little bit. He goes just bend over like this and he shows me. I go,

I always say doc, really? You got to do this? He goes, yeah, I'm just gonna say, what are you gonna do? He goes, I got to finger you. I go, what? Just like that. He goes, I got to finger you. No, he probably didn't say it like that. He said it like that. Well, because he's joking with you. I bent over. I bent over. And let me tell you something. It was, I mean, he went deep. Well, he has to. I screamed like a little girl. I'm like, oh my God. Oh my God.

Oh my God. And he was twisting around and digging deep. But wait, don't they have to actually put something in you for that? Like K-Y. No, but I'm saying not just their fit. Like isn't there like something that checks for... He had a glove. He had a glove on and he stuck his middle finger and he's a six foot five guy.

He's just a big guy. Yeah, but I'm saying they don't have to put a device or anything in to check for something? No, no. It's all done by their hands? His finger goes up and he twists all the way around. To feel for lumps. To lumps, yeah.

And he, I mean, look, he went in there and he spread it all the way up deep. And he, for a long time? How long did this go on for? Melissa, I was so embarrassed. Were you talking, laughing the whole time? Laughing. I screamed like a little girl. I'm like, ah, ah, ah.

It's KY that you're wiping. No, it was hard. So I turned around and I'm looking at him. He's talking to me and I can't even look at him in his eyes because we just made love. Oh my god Joe. We did. Oh my god. He does this probably so when you walk out of his office the next guy is gonna bend over because this is what he does. And he said to me I go Doc I go I have this connection to you now.

I don't feel bad for you guys. We have to have menstruation once a month. We have to have babies and have a woman stick everything up us in these clamps to clamp open our vaginas so they can pull the head of a baby out and they clamp us open so they can give us a pap smear.

and take photos and hold and hold and it hits your bladder and it's like, oh, like, do you think I feel bad for the one time you had a finger up your ass?

Oh my God.

I knew that this conversation was going to be tricky and I am officially done with the conversation. I swear, I wish there was like a noise that you could hear every second. I'm like, I'm squeezing my butt cheeks together to feel something. Oh my God. I am officially done with this conversation. I'm just, I don't know, man. This was tough.

This sucks getting older. This was tough. This sucks getting older. It really does. Long story short, I'm very proud of you for actually doing the right thing. You need to get checked. You have young kids. You have a family. All you men out there, listen to me.

You need to get checked. Once you're hitting your 40s, your late 40s, you're gonna hit 50, whatever it might be. You guys gotta get out there and get the fingers going. Yeah, get the finger going. Listen, I'm really doing it for you and my kids. I want to be healthy because without me, you guys are lost. They're done. Finito.

But that's why I'm pushing you to go because we want you to stay around forever honey. Oh my God. See your wife making you do all the things. You know what sucks is like you know thank God I'm pretty healthy right now. I don't know. But what sucks is as you get older right you, you know, you live a you live a life you work hard When it's time to like try to chill out and life as you're getting older

then you got to start going to doctors and doctor appointments and visits and The stuff starts going bad because you're like a car, you know after 50 years 55 years it starts breaking down. So you got to take care of yourself. No, shit don't break till 70. Yeah, I wish. I feel alive. So anyway, wait, you want to talk about real quick? I have to bring this up. When I started to butcher the last name Gorga.

So I don't know if you guys watch the Real Housewives of Dubai, but they're about to air now too. So like there's no, all the Bravo fans are freaking out because there's no Housewives shows on right now. And it's like dead silence, which is no, usually there's always one running. I don't know. I feel like they could have pushed us up earlier, but they didn't. So we air May 5th, which I'm very excited about. So we will be the first Housewives show that comes back to air because right now there is no Housewives airing.

So I feel like the Bravo universe is like losing their minds. They probably needed a breather, by the way. They probably needed a minute. But the real Housewives of Dubai has a, I would say she's pretty spicy. She, you know, she likes to get in there. She does the shade and all of that. Her name is a Chanel Ayaan, I want to say. And I actually think she's a gorgeous woman. She's a model. She's a beautiful woman. But she came out like on her platform on Bravo. And like one of her things was like, she was discussing,

I guess, the new girl who's entering the show. And she's like, oh, I don't know what she says. She just said, she reminds me of Melissa Gorga. So maybe not to be trusted or something. And she didn't say Melissa Gorga. She said Melissa Georgia or Gor-gee-ah. She said Melissa Georgia or Gorgia. She said Melissa Gorgia. And I'm like, maybe she meant to say Melissa Gorgeous. Like, I don't know. She said that, really? Yeah, she said something along the lines.

But then again, she did attend your sister's wedding and she is, you know, I'd like to not call her a follower because I don't know her. I've met her once and we were actually super, super sweet to each other. And we were nice to each other, but yeah. So here we go. We might have to find a sound bite of that

to put it in for you guys, all right? So Brett, put a little sound bite in for the people so they can hear what this lady, what she called me. Reminds me of Melissa Goja. Melissa Goja. Melissa Goja. Okay, it's Gorgah, Melissa Gorgah. Get it straight, girlfriend. Get it straight, girlfriend.

But anyway, besides for that Bravo News going on, I feel like I'm kind of butchering that story because I don't remember the exact thing she said. But she said something and put my name in her mouth, and I really don't remember the exact thing she said, but she said something and put my name in her mouth and I really don't see why. I don't even know her. Why are you bringing me into it in a negative? I feel like she was trying to say something negative or throw some shade at me and it's

like, girl, who are you? She's going on to her second season and I think she's a gorgeous girl and there's no need for her to be shady to me because I've been very nice to her And I just don't really get it So maybe she'll explain to me tell her to keep checking the internet because there's a lot of shady shit going on It ain't coming from you, baby. That's true. So that is very true. The internet is buzzing Although we can't we can't really dive into all of that, but we will Diving into it right now, but tell her to keep her eyes open and see and yes You know there is a lot going on on the internet. I know you guys are all I actually asked you guys for a bunch of questions

So I have Joe for a little longer so he's going to You know I asked the fans on Instagram today for a couple questions for you. Okay, so let's see. Well, they have questions for us. Let's see, I'm gonna go through them. I tell you, babe, you know, real time, I was walking around at a doctor's office and my, you know, my butt sounds like walking around wet sandals around a pool, you know, that sounds like make that noise. I don't want to hear. Oh, my god. I'm like, I'm like thinking about that right now.

And every time I walk, it's still. Like it's KY jelly. Oh, it's pretty thick. Oh my God. It was, this was different stuff. This is now becoming too much information for me. So I'm good. I can't believe it.

Anyway, a lot of people have some questions about the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Obviously, you guys all know the deal. A lot of people have some questions about the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Obviously you guys all know the deal.

How do I find my Joey Gorga? How does he find it? It's not a sexual question, bro. It wasn't like a, ooh. It's kind of just like a, do you have any advice? How does she find her Joe Gorga with a heart eyes face? That's a little advice Nicolette, very hard. No.

Very, very few and none. It's like finding a needle in a haystack. Few and none. You mean few and far between. Nah, few and none. Same shit, find a needle in a haystack, try to go into like an ocean and try to throw an egg in it and try to find it.

Dive in, you're not gonna find one. Very difficult. No. No, they're out there, hun. Yeah, they're out there. They're just, they're difficult. It's different times now. But I am one of a kind, see, right? there, hon. They're out there. They're just difficult. It's different times now, but I am one of a kind. See, right?

Right, babe? I do have a couple people asking. Tell me about it. Tell me how great I am. You're so amazing. How amazing? Say it. You're so great.

Now it is. You know what, Joey? I have a good Joey Gorgas, but I've also trained him, guys. So you trained. She yells at me a lot for no reason. No, I don't. I've also taught him my boundaries and what's acceptable in our marriage and our relationship.

And when he does things that I don't approve of, I don't let it slide. I stay on him. I get on him. I let him know that this is not gonna be good for our lives and make me, and it's not gonna create a happy life and at the end of the day you want to come home and you want me to be happy and vice versa you you lay the law down on things that you are like no and you get miserable about and you're nasty about and then I'm like oh not worth it it drives. It drives them crazy. Not going to do it. So we just make it very like, so when your partner tells you, I don't like this, right? And I don't like when you do A, B and C or I don't like when you go out four times a week on

business meetings that I feel that you could have done a Zoom or whatever it could be. And that's not you, but it just just it could be with, you know, you got to listen in a relationship. You have to listen. You have to give in a little bit. You can't say, well, too bad. You do have to give in on both sides. I got to be in like a caged box. No. Yeah. Stop.

You always take it to the next level. Just stop yourself. Somebody said, Alex said, can the podcast ever take callers so they can chime in? I think that would be- I love to do that. Would you guys love that? DM me if you would like that. I do think that's a great idea.

And we'll definitely try it with an upcoming one for one of the podcasts with Joe and I, where we will give you a special line. We will take callers and you guys will be able to ask us questions live. And I think that, you know, that would be, that would be great. Let's do that. Let's do that.

Next up. All right, Alex. Yes. Set it up. We're doing it. I've said that from the beginning. I wanted to do that. I did.

People want to know, they said we had a big Katania weekend. We went to Frank Katania's opening to his new dispensary. And we also went, I went to Brittany's bridal shower yesterday, which was so great guys. It was so much fun. You know what I really loved? I sat with Dolores and Dolores is, Dolores has four sisters and a brother, or three sisters, three sisters and a brother,

cause there's five of them. So I sat with all three of her sisters and Dolores and Dolores's mom and her daughter Gabby. And I just loved bonding with her sisters and talking to them. And they knew you Joe, since you're very young. The one sister told me you guys worked together at, what's the name of it? Rascal House. At the Rascal House. Yes. You flipped some burgers together. I flipped a lot of other things there too. Yes, and I think it's cute how you and Dolores

have known each other and the family have known each other for so long. We know each other, I tell you, since five years old, since I moved to that neighborhood. Yeah. Five, I knew all her sisters, all her brothers, her parents, I knew everybody. Yeah, they love you.

And all her cousins, she's got a big, she's got a whole, She's got a big family. Her cousins are, you know, they were beautiful growing up. They were the hot girls. They're all hot. They're beautiful.

They're all so sweet. They're all so nice. They, they love you. They said they've always loved you that they think you're the greatest guy. And that it was fun. We were dancing together and I just love how Dolores and Frank like live separately but still keep their families together. Like the fact that Dolores had a whole table of her own family at Frank's new bridal shower

to me is so amazing. That would never happen to me. I don't think me and you could do it. Let's be real. But they got divorced at a much younger age. At this point, I don't know. If me and you got divorced and you were getting a new marriage. I'm gonna bring my sister to your She would be your date she would be your date Wow way to way to stick it to me

Yeah, I think I'd rather see your new hot girlfriend. Whoever she is. I'll take her I'm gonna come and bring my sister as my date. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Oh Jesus. But like I don't know. Now we gotta do it. See if that happened to me and vice versa and we were divorced and you were coming to my

thing just like Frank, you would never come and bring your family. No, no, no. You'd be like, fuck him. Well yeah, but they have been divorced for so long that it works and I do, I wanna give them respect. Like I think that's an amazing way to be, the way that Brittany and Dolores get along, the way Dolores is there with, you know,

happy to be part of it, happy to clap for them, happy for Frank, it's big. She's not being a jealous person who's saying, oh, I'm not remarried yet or whatever it is. It's like, it's really, really nice to see actually. I really love it. And I love Frankatania, you know that. And I love Dolores.

So it was, and we helped Frank open, we supported him at his dispensary, which guys, I was so like bugged out by it. It was the first time I've ever like entered a weed or whatever this is, like every dispensary. I've never entered one. I had no idea what it was going to look like. I was like, what is it going to be hanging on the walls? What's happening?

And so you walk in and it's a very nice place. And then there's another bolted door that you have to get through to get to the good stuff. Right? And then there's all kinds of like treats like do you want this? Do you want gummies? Do you? And I'm like, Wow, like this is so crazy that it's illegal to me. There's one there that I forgot to take home. But Frank, I called Frank bring it home for me. It's a sexual one for you. I saw that. I read all about it. They sent in our goody bags. Yeah.

They sent all. Oh, we got it in the goody bag? They sent it in the goody bag. He put it in the goody bag. Oh, shit! Oh, God. You're gonna try it. No!

I'm gonna overdose. I have never tried, just FYI, I've never tried any, like we're not like pot smokers, we don't smoke weed. We just don't, not that I've never tried pot, I'm not saying that, but like we're just not. We're no good, especially not me.

It doesn't work good for you. You are a or me. I'll smoke weed I look like I think snakes are coming out of the wall I'm flipping I'm crazy. I'll just hang on me like a little you go into the fetal position And you turn into a toddler and you're like, I love you. I just love you and you just hang on me You don't get off me. Yeah, it's bad It's so weird last time I were hanging out a bunch of friends and he's a dentist and he's like here take take this gummy and I was drinking I'm like I don't do I don't do dry like is

not it's just a gummy it's like CBD and I popped the gummy 20 minutes later I said this is nothing he's like oh yeah here take another one pop within an hour I was in a coma I didn't wake up for two days. Two days. Two fucking days. It just doesn't work for us. We're like drinkers. We like a cocktail.

I remember, guys, when I tell you it was two days, two days, I woke up in the backyard during the day butt naked. I didn't even know where I was. You left, you went to work wherever you went. I was in the backyard butt naked. What? Waking up, yeah. Yeah, it was a mess.

Remember that two days I was in that mess. Oh my God, that was so long ago I can barely remember. But I do remember you were definitely like, I will never do that again for the rest of my life. I've never tried any drugs, but I would like to see myself on a drug. I'd be like, ah. No. Would I be great?

No, you would be a psycho. You'd be a psycho. All my friends used to say, we want to see Joe in ecstasy. Remember when he used to be young and used to pop ecstasy? I'm never trying. They had those ecstasy with the bull on it. They're like, take the bull. I would never do it, but I want to see if I'd be running on water like Jesus Christ. No, you'd be psycho. I was already crazy in the club. That's one thing that attracted to you at the time, because when we grew up, we grew up in this era that everyone was raving in the clubs, doing ecstasy.

There was a lot of cocaine, Special K, all of these. Oh, Special K. All of these drugs, GHB, whatever that is, the liquid people would drink, all of this stuff. And you were the one guy who never did any would drink, like all of this stuff. And like you were the one guy who never did any of that. And you never tried it. And that kind of, it attracted me to you, that you were such like a hardworking,

good little nice boy. Listen, there was one night we're out. I was just dating Melissa, we were dating. I think, I don't know, maybe five, six months we're out. We're at this club bar, we're sitting down, and there was a guy taking shots out of a cap out of his water. We were in Atlantic City.

We were in Atlantic City and he would open up his, the cap, he had a bottle of water with him and he would open up the cap and take little shots. And I'm sitting there like watching him and he, 10 or 12 throughout the night. Finally he looks at me and he goes, why does this guy keep taking shots of water? And I said to him, Joe, there's definitely like GHB or something. There's like something in there making him crazy. Like he was sweating, he was jumping around with the house, this guy get drunk off order. And this is how naive I was.

I just didn't mess with drugs, you know, and as these guys are taking shots out of a bottle, it was insane. Yeah. You know? I'm crazy. Yeah, but you're a good boy and I love that. But yeah, it was fun. We went to Frank's Dispensary and he had a great opening.

So shout out to him. It's called The Dispensary. It's out in Union, New Jersey. I think there's one in Summit, New Jersey. So congrats to Frank on his new venture. I hope they kill it. Listen, Frank's got a lot going on this year. He is getting married.

He's building a house around the block from us. We're gonna go to his wedding in November. I just think this is like, you know, Frank's killing it. So we love Frank's killing it. So we love Frank Catania. So shout out to Frank and Brittany. And she looked beautiful.

She looked stunning at her bridal shower. She was so much fun. It was like a party with a DJ and it was such a great time. We had an awesome time.

because I have time for maybe one more question before you have to take little Joey. So let's see, I'll give you two options. You tell me which one you wanna answer, okay? Okay, all right, give it. Oh my God, this one's funny. Somebody thought they were funny and they just wrote BJs.

Like that's what this person wrote. Let's talk about that. No, I know. That's not one of the options, but they wrote BJs. Like, huh? BJs keep you married. Oh my gosh. Okay, that's his answer.

That quick little... Listen, BJs are very important in life. You know, I would love... Somebody wants to know, would we ever... No, I'm talking about... No, no, I'm cutting you off. I would love to have more BJs, you know, but I don't know, it doesn't happen, but it makes me miserable.

Is it your birthday? It makes me very unhappy. I feel like in a relationship when I need something or you need something, if you need something I will do whatever you need to make you happy. If I need something, I would like, you know. Okay. All right. We got it.

I shouldn't have said it. Okay. Here we go. Moving on. Oh, you'll love this one. The new season. Talk about the new season and what we should expect. Joe is the goat.

Oh, do you like that, Joe? Do you like to be called the goat? Yeah, I'm the goat, baby. We already talked about the new season I was just throwing your bone there. How does he maintain a close relationship with Frank and Joe Beningo? How does he with like being on this show because how do we maintain because we are three of the same? We don't compete with each other. We don't want to hurt each other. We want to help each other We're honest. We're sweet. We're not jealous of each other. We don't want to hurt each other. We want to help each other. We're

honest. We're sweet. We're not jealous of each other. We're just good guys that really appreciate each other. And no matter what, if I call Joe B for something, he's there. I call Frank and vice versa for all of us. And John Food is the same way, I have to say I mean when you when you got that kind of crew and you click it's great now if you with somebody that's insecure and jealous that's where the problems happen you know that's that's where the friction happens there's always somebody that's jealous or that wants to hurt you or be better than you is in competition with you and things like that happen but not with but not with these guys. Yeah, I agree.

I got a lot of questions about us doing our own show. Do you guys ever see yourself doing another reality show with just Melissa's family? Will you guys ever do the reality show of just the Gorgas? I got a lot of questions about that. I mean, listen, what would you approach up? Because there's a piece of me that says, once we're done with Housewives and that reality,

do you really want to keep that going? Or is it time to say, we've crossed the reality bridge? And I would definitely do more things in the TV world and continue to work in the entertainment business and on TV, whether it be commentating or whatever it might be. I do think there's other things to do out there, but I don't know that I would jump into another reality show.

I would. I would. Yeah, well, you definitely. Really? I got some great, great shows in mind, but why not? I want to be really like, see, The Housewife kind of restricts me from being myself. I would love to, you know. No it doesn't.

Yes it does. You are completely yourself on the reality show. No, a little bit more. No, I could do more. You know, I could do more. Why? What do you mean you could do more? Because it's not about the men.

Right. It's not about the men. One minute countdown. And it's not about, little Joey Gorgas popping his head in again. He's big. Look how big he is now. Joey, you are so cute. Can you just say hi to everyone?

Say what's up? Guess what, it's your birthday this week, so everybody, Joey's birthday's on Saturday. He's gonna be 14. Joey, come tell everybody what you want for your birthday and then I'll get you if you tell them. You see as they get older, I go, what do you want for your birthday?

Cologne. You want cologne, that's it? That's what you want? Good job. What do you mean that's what you want? Good job. What do you mean? That's all you want? Shut up. I'm surprised. He usually asks for like an electric something or another. No, he's getting older now. You don't need that. You want cologne? What type of what, what, what brand cologne? What's cool? I gotta buy some new boxes, like nice ones. No, no. What kind of cologne?

Give me a name. Whatever. We'll talk about it. No, because he watches these TikToks and they talk about the best cologne. Give me another question before I go. Okay, last question guys before we have to take Joey to lacrosse. He has a game tonight. So hold on. Let's see. I know we are truly if in case you were ever wondering, we are truly working parents that we juggle life. We do have help, but some days we don't have help. And guess what? We have to do podcasts and we want to talk to you guys, but we also have to take our kids.

So I love that you get a glimpse of like real life. Yeah, I was at wrestling all day yesterday. We left at 5 a.m. We didn't get home till six at night. Right. Yeah, it was a battle. It's just we never stop. You know what? Gino went 2 know. I mean, I'm not to know to and to very tough, tough tournament. But, you know, I'm proud of him. Losing is just as good as winning. Because when you lose, right,

I was able to talk to him. What did you do wrong? See, when you win, you win. You wrestled great, you won. When you lose in wrestling, you're able to learn. So all these tournaments are to learn. Somebody just wrote the word Tarzan. Tarzan. He's still alive. He's still pumping. He's still rocking and rolling.

He's still ready to go. He's still on the pedestal. He's still ready to rock and roll every day. Somebody said this, and I think we'll save this for another podcast with you, because a lot of people wanna know about investments, stocks, side hustles. How do we get some side hustle? How do we make additional money on the side,

like talk to us a little bit about? So we will hit this on another podcast when we have a little bit more time to like talk, and we will answer that question. A lot of people wanna know parenting advice. Let's see. I'm trying to see if there's one we can just end with, Joe. Let's see. Business success tips. See, there's another one. So that's a whole podcast. I think they want to know about business and successes and business and things like that. All right. Well, listen, I think that,

I'm still reading, I'm still reading because I wanted to find something that we can discuss. There's a lot of stuff in here also that we can't discuss, that the people are reading on the internet. Somebody did say, tell us about Chanel Iann and why she is so obsessed with you. What is the issue? We did discuss that in the beginning. You know, I don't know.

I know she's, I feel like she's mentioned my name before, so I don't know exactly, but I can't wait to see her because I would have no problem just asking her very nicely, am I missing something? But anyway guys, we love you and you know, we're gonna, you gotta drive carefully to Joey's practice please, because I know that your butt probably hurts a little bit, right? So when you get into the driver's seat,

just like sit down. It's like wet sandals at the beach. You took a shower, let's stop lying. It's still there. Now you've taken a shower. It's still there. We don't want it to leak. It's still there.

It's leaking out, it's coming out. It's so thick. It was thick. Anyway, Joe Gorgon, thank you for joining me. Thank you for being on display today. It was worse than jelly. And better yet, thank you for taking my child to lacrosse right now. It hurts so bad. I'm still right now as we're talking, I'm squeezing my butt cheeks. Oh my God. My asshole. What a turn on, guys. What a turn on. Frank, better go get me some of those chewy things that make me excited because

you know I had right now I am not turned on I can tell you that. You're not turned on? No we love you peace out guys. Tarzan always will love everybody. We'll talk to you next week. And one thing you have to do remember release the poison it keeps you happy in life. Oh Jesus Jesus Christ. Ciao, ciao. Oh, I don't like to take the Lord's name in vain. Goodbye, Joe. Ciao. Arrivederci. Hasta la vista. Ciao. Yeah. Listen up, campers.

It's time to buckle up, pitch a tent, and take a hike. This is Camp Counselor's Podcast. With Zachariah Porter. And Jonathan Carson. Consider this podcast your new favorite variety show. Where the badges mean nothing. And the drama means everything. Is this podcast even about camping?

No, but it is camp. We cover everything. I have a theory that a chicken finger is the perfect chaser for a tequila shot. No, because at the end of the day, I was a child actor who fell victim to an audition scam. I'm going to be vulnerable for a second. Have you ever had to shop in a husky section at a department store? Then I don't want to hear it.

Honestly, I can't talk about this anymore. I'm overstimulated and I'm bloated. From weird news and our current obsessions. To hot gossip and listener submitted confessions. Nothing is off limits at this camp. New episodes of Camp Counselors drop every Monday and Wednesday. Listen wherever you get your podcast. Lights out campers.
