Hi Ronnie, how are you? What's going on? Hi. Hi. Hi. We're here to talk about.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Hi, last recap of Southern Charm of the season everybody. Yes, this is it. Someone actually just asked, they said, oh, we were really hoping that you'd recap Southern Charm in our city, but guess what? Southern Charm, this is it. There is no more Southern Charm recap. It's gonna be dead by next week.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Sorry. So. Sorry. This is it. It's not about the pasta over in Detroit. Go look that up. That's season six. I think it's episode seven.

Starting point is 00:02:15 and we're waving at you right now. Ronnie's smiling and drinking from his hydro jug. So, that's all of that news. And today we have, as mentioned, the... Here it is, part two, the final part of the Southern Charm reunion. So here we go, where we left off, Vanina and JT were fighting and he was acting like he hadn't been, hadn't ghosted her and being ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:02:45 And she's like, you want me to get my phone? I will get my phone. I will get my phone. And she storms out of the wrong door on the set. And she's like, I'm gonna leave looking cute. And she goes to her room and she's like, give me my phone. So she gets her phone and she comes back. And I was really excited because I'm so confused
Starting point is 00:03:02 over this timeline still of Vanita and JT dating and what she's got on her phone and what these receipts prove. And last week I said, okay, I'm gonna hold space for, you know, Vanita... basically being completely, like, this whole thing making sense. You know? And I still don't know what... I still don't really get it. I mean, I guess I get the timeline. I just thought these receipts were gonna be more than they were.
Starting point is 00:03:29 They were really built up to be huge receipts, and they weren't. Yeah, so she's like, you said I ghosted you, and your feelings were hurt. Well, October 29th. So she's reading and she says, it would be helpful for us to link up and talk. And Lava's like, wait, so this is after the trailer drops. And JT's like, yeah, well, because we were seeing each other every day. And I reached out to be caring to you.
Starting point is 00:03:53 I wanted to text my care to you in text form. I sent an emoji, and that emoji, it was of a bear, which rhymes with care, because I was saying, I'm bearing for you. But I was really meaning I'm caring for you, because they have to rhyme. Which is a cartoon....you have to grab it. Care bear. That's a cartoon our children could watch together one day. And I just wanted to be caring to you. You understand what I'm saying? So she's like,
Starting point is 00:04:15 um, well, on that text, on the 29th, I said, I need to take some time right now. A-boom! A-boom! So that was me telling you I was taking time, which means I'm not gonna be talking to you. And he's like, but then I called you multiple times. Didn't I text you? Didn't I call you? Did I text call you? FaceTime you even.
Starting point is 00:04:37 All right, I WhatsApped you. I WhatsApped you. I tried everywhere I could. And she goes, yeah, that weekend when I was on a break from you. And he goes, yeah, so what does that leave me? In the dark, in the dark, reaching out every day. Where'd she go? It's a grab box of boobs in there.
Starting point is 00:04:55 I've been in the dark grabbing things. I didn't know if it was you. I didn't know if it was her. She's like, we were on a break, okay? She says, I don't want to, I need some time to myself. And then you are hounding her over the weekend. Like, that's, I don't want to, I need some time to myself. And then you are hounding her over the weekend. Like that's how you can make people not call you back. If someone says I need to be away from you for a moment and then you call them,
Starting point is 00:05:14 you've now added like a penalty day. Every time you call someone or text someone when they said they want some space, you add like a penalty day of, of silence. And I don't think he seems to realize that that's like, yeah, that's my ghosting. Yeah, that's what I go to time, sir. Now, no one asked the question, why does she say in an interview on Ryan Bailey's podcast when this trailer dropped and all this stuff happened, that he was the one who ghosted her? Because that's what she said. So that's why I'm still confused because none of the
Starting point is 00:05:41 real questions are being asked here. I need to be asked about the timeline that she has set forth in social media since all of this happened. I'm very confused. Now, am I confused that JT is a douchebag? No, I am not. JT is still 100% a douchebag because he's like, what?
Starting point is 00:05:58 What? You said you needed a break and then you turned into Casper. Where'd she go? Where'd she go, am I right? By the way, another cartoon our children could watch together. Could watch someday. Let's bring back the real Ghostbusters. Wonderful cartoon. So then he's like, I'm in the dark. I'm reaching out every day that weekend. And she's like, well, you said, I just want you to know my mind is on yours. And I didn't text back
Starting point is 00:06:22 because I was at a wedding, my best friend's wedding. I was forcing someone to sing karaoke when they weren't comfortable and then it turns out that everyone liked her once she did that and I was really upset about it. Then I didn't have my phone and you know, he said, I got it, I'll let you be. And he's like, yeah, and I said, I'll let you be a week of not caring.
Starting point is 00:06:40 So who doesn't have their phone at their best friend's wedding? How else do you take pictures and like make Instagram stories? Yeah, you're an influencer. I mean, if your friend invited you, she wants you to tell your followers how cute she looked in her wedding dress. What kind of best friend is this? Maybe it was like a fancy wedding where everyone had to like, like valet their phone.
Starting point is 00:06:58 So then, I'm like, I'll be taking your phones. This is a wellness event. Pam. Yeah, you might be at the wedding. Stop it, Pam. Are you sure? Look at for the suicide melons. So then, um, Vanita's like, and then, so I guess, so he said, like, fine, I'll let you be. And then a week of not caring.
Starting point is 00:07:25 A week. I'm like, oh, come on. So she, a week, she didn't hear from her from a week. Which by the way, if she says I need some space, a week is like nothing. That's like someone saying they need space. A ghosting is when you reach out to them, they don't even say that I need space.
Starting point is 00:07:39 They just, they go away. That's the ghost. If someone says, I'm gonna go away now, that's not someone disappearing into thin air. What's the opposite of ghosting? That's like corpseing. You're literally like a bot. You're like, you have corpse me, you know where they are. They're just not talking to you. So then she says that like, he wrote, he said like he reached out or whatever. It's like,
Starting point is 00:08:03 I just want you to know your mind is on mine. And then the very next day, he posts on Instagram a picture of him with the girlfriend. So, it was kind of like a fuck you moment from him. Well, and by the way, this was because the girl... So, he was dating Vanita, and then she got messages from the girl he used to date, saying, fuck you, to her, telling her off. And then, so she took a week off, and he was like, okay, you want to take a
Starting point is 00:08:27 week, then I'm choosing that girl and I'm putting it on Instagram. So he's super mature. Uh, and I, how can that little beaver keep two women on the string like that? How, how does he have that many? That's the power of television. I'm telling you the power of being cast on television that it has for these men is insane. That's the power of television. I'm telling you, the power of being cast on television that it has for these men is insane. That's true.
Starting point is 00:08:54 So, um, JT, there's just, he keeps on saying, my text messages will be showing care for you. Which it sounds like he's like messing up some sort of like therapy talk. Because a lot of times when I go to therapy, you know, I talk about like, and then this happened, then this happens, like, well, that was actually a gesture of care. And so like in the context of therapy, it's like, okay,
Starting point is 00:09:10 if you say that's a gesture of care, it makes sense. I don't think you're ridiculous. But if I'm talking to you and I say, I just texted you, which showed that was me showing care for you. I'm not gonna, I don't wanna hear that. That's not a gesture of care. It just means that you were fragile and you wanted someone to say you're not in trouble.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Yeah. Like why would you post that? And Lovett says, I mean, is it that Vanita hurt your feelings? And then so you got revenge on her by, like, posting this other girl? He's like, no, no, not at all. Okay? But after a week for trying for someone I care about so much, I said, I can't sit here in limbo, I've got two balls in the air. What kind of juggler would I be if I didn't catch at least one of them? Am I right, guys?
Starting point is 00:09:47 Am I right? And Sally goes, after a week, a week, that's seven days. So this moment of conversion is brought to you by Sally. I was proud of Sally for getting that one. I was proud. That's the first time anyone on Southern Charm probably has ever been able to make that connection. Ugh. So Vanita's like, okay, look,
Starting point is 00:10:10 if you had just said verbatim, listen, I know you're taking time, but I've got stuff on my heart and we need to talk immediately because there's an expiration date on this other Instagram ho. But you did not, you did not give me that. Well, he did text you and say he care.
Starting point is 00:10:25 I mean, why is that? I don't think that she should even give him this out is what I'm saying. Like, no, there's no way that he could be with you. Then you get yelled at by his ex-girlfriend and then you take a week off from him and then he suddenly announces that he's with that girlfriend. I don't think there's any way that he could...
Starting point is 00:10:42 There's anything that he could have said that would have made that okay and stop giving him that out. I don't like it. Also way that he could... There's anything that he could have said that would have made that okay, and stop giving him that out. I don't like it. Also, can we take a moment? You know who we have not given shit to? The girlfriend. Who the fuck are you calling up Vanita and yelling at her? Like, your issue should be with Jarrett, not with Vanita.
Starting point is 00:10:59 And, um, like, and you should also... You also won. You won in the situation. You wound up with him. So why are you all pounding her? You know? I'm sorry, I think that's... Because I think what's happening is, well, she says the girlfriend, this is, I don't know her, obviously, but from what I read on, you know, or from what I hear from the bitchiest housewife of all time,
Starting point is 00:11:17 Sashoma Dia! She said that she went to dinner with Bunny and Vanita. So Vanita knew that they were girlfriend and boyfriend. And then she continued to pursue JT during the season, which we kind of saw, even though JT was making it sound like that was no big deal with this girl. And he still hadn't decided all of this stuff. So I think the way that JT is presenting it to this other girl is like, I told her I had a girlfriend, but then on camera, she kept flirting with me and trying to make things
Starting point is 00:11:44 happen and I wasn't doing anything. is like, I told her I had a girlfriend, but then on camera she kept flirting with me and trying to make things happen and I wasn't doing anything and it's just, you know, I don't know what's going on, but she's probably trying to make me look single on the show and nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. And so he's probably making Venita sound crazy to where this girl's like, you stop fucking with my boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Like, I don't even know that this girlfriend knew that he was actually technically dating Venita. I thought the girlfriend was probably like, we need a break, I need a break from you, this is too much. And so on his break, he's like, fine, you're not calling me back all day, Venita. NONE of these people are interesting enough to have this kind of Rashomon situation
Starting point is 00:12:16 happening with their relationship. Yeah. True. But I think the road leads back to JT both times, and he is the douchebag in this situation. And you're right. I think that both of them should be mad at him and not at each other. That's right. So, Leva...
Starting point is 00:12:32 weighs in, because they're just both super hurt. And Andy's like, well, where do you go from here? Hopefully out the door. I'm bored with this. And JT's like, well, I would like to get that friendship back. Well, do you want to be friends, Vanita? And this is where I was like, well, I would like to get that friendship back. Well, do you want to be friends with Anita? And this is where I was like, after all of this, all of these previews of Anita being like, I'm getting the receipts. Here's my receipts. You're a liar. I thought she'd be like, no,
Starting point is 00:12:54 fuck this little fucking guy. But no, she doesn't. She pauses and it goes, yeah. Yeah. And do you want to date him still? Long, long pause. Yeah. Yeah. And Madison's like, oh my God, that's very honest. You know, sadly honest, disgustingly honest. Gross. Honesty's disgusting, honestly. This is horrible. JAYLEE I was like, you made us wait all this time just to be like, yeah, I wanna date him still. Just can't. I can't. I know I can't. I'm trying so hard, Medina. You know, I like you. Deep down, I really do like you. I just, your choices. So she's like, but I'm not gonna allow myself
Starting point is 00:13:34 to work on friendship with her in the picture because I know that she doesn't like me. So that's a weird stance to take. Like, break up with your girlfriend or you can't be friends with me. But if you break up with your girlfriend, I you can't be friends with me. But if you break up with your girlfriend, I'm gonna date you. It's like, what?
Starting point is 00:13:48 So JT is like, well, step one is being here today and seeing you in person. And lots of tiny little fragments of my face in your dress. Man, we just need to take it one day at a time. Too soon, I just came out with my alcoholism storyline, bro. Sorry, Craig. I was just referencing the television show One Day at a Time, which coincidentally, our children could also watch together one day. It was very wholesome. This is it. This is it. This is life. The one you've got. Let's go have a ball without drinking though. I don't drink anymore
Starting point is 00:14:29 So andy like what I didn't say eight ball. I didn't say eight ball One day at a time one day at a time one day at a time Well, despite jt being on the f-boy seat this season, he was proselytizing on truth. Now, Austin and Madison, did you coordinate your polka dots as JT alleged? That was hilarious! Well, let's roll the polka dot footage, guys! Let's roll it! Whoa! We're both wearing polka dots, Madison! That's insane right now! I called her and I was like, you want to get back together? Let's wearing polka dots, Madison. That's insane right now. I called her and I was like,
Starting point is 00:15:05 you want to get back together, let's wear polka dots. Ha, ha. And JT's like, well, I will own that and I will walk it back to Poppy. And Annie's like, all right, a conspiracy theory that Austin cheated on Audrey Leva. And she's like, well, for clarification, I did not say cheated.
Starting point is 00:15:23 He said he had been dating Audrey a year, and that was a timeline. And I apologize to Austin, because that's not what I meant. Yeah, I said, he's been seeing a lot of girls, Andy. It's totally different than dating. Am I right? So I'm off the hook on this one, guys. Thanks. Pfft. So Austin's like, okay, okay, well, look, I had met Audrey six months prior
Starting point is 00:15:51 to being in an official relationship with Audrey. So I knew Audrey, but I wasn't like official with Audrey. So... Okay, so you were seeing a lot of other people during that time. So why you villainizing Leva? She wasn't lying. Hmm. Also, Audrey, run, run, Audrey, run girl. Come on. Are you in love with her? I am. I am. She's just like a darling. So and he's like, whatever man says when he's in love with a woman.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Such a darling. What a darling right now. Darling is insane right now. Love my darling. You sound like such a dad. Come over here, girl. Get me some more drinks towards the golf cart. I'm over here. The blue golf cart.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Come over here. You're a darling. You're a darling. She's a goddamn darling. So Andy is like, alright, conspiracy theory number three, the only one we actually care about, that JT called Ms. Patricia a bitch. Now, that does not exist on camera,
Starting point is 00:16:52 and Ms. P said on Instagram that she no longer thinks her... Uh, he called her the B-word, so who here thinks he really called her the B-word? And so then... I know he did, I know he did, so whatever. Whatever you guys want to think. Craig's doing his full arms on the back of the couch,
Starting point is 00:17:09 you know, thing that he does when he gets, like, super temper tantrum-y. He's like, I know what he did, whatever. Whatever you guys, whatever you want to think. He's like holding the couch with one arm, so that way he's like, hold me back, bro. So then Madison, Sally, and Austin raised their hands, and JT's like, Craig, like, hold me back, bro. So then Madison, Sally and Austin raised their hands and JT's like, Craig, you really hurt my feelings, bro.
Starting point is 00:17:29 I mean, no audio found. You look like the handsome boy that cried wolf. And Craig's like, thank you, I am handsome, but I don't care. I don't have a dog in this fight. You started the fight, Craig. You are the dog in this fight. You're the dog. You are the wolf. Oh, you cried wolf. You cried handsome, handsome wolf. You cried devastatingly dimple in the chin, handsome. God damn, you're a prince. Wolf, Craig.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Craig does look very handsome in this reunion. I am gonna say. He always looks handsome. That's how he gets away with everything. He's adorable, he has a great little smile, and he gets away with whatever the fuck he wants to, and he will continue to for the rest of his life. Because he's one of those people that even when he's all old and scraggling, he's gonna have sparkly little eyes and dimples and that smile, and he's just gonna get away
Starting point is 00:18:17 with everything, you know? Yeah, he really has aged well. So, um, but take the JT, take the bitch stuff out. This stuff you said was way worse. There's nothing to take out. Craig is on inside something the first place. No, I'm saying take that out of it. The stuff about Madison, the stuff about Austin, the way you called Lev, a fucking whore. I didn't even say it. Where'd that come from? I don't know. Why'd you talk so much shit about Andy Cohen? It was so mean. I can't believe you'd say that to the host of this reunion.
Starting point is 00:18:50 What? Now you're just making stuff up on the fly. The way that you told America you were gonna start putting 20% tariffs on everything so they were all gonna go broke was cold. Wait a minute! That ain't me! Uh-huh. Prove it. Prove it. But see the thing he's saying he's like, okay, but to even take the bitch part out of it, the rest of the stuff was even worse. But they've already addressed that other stuff. He's already admitted to that other stuff. And that stuff is over. So no, it's not worse. This is the thing you
Starting point is 00:19:18 lied about. And this is the worst thing because it's like the producer of the show Whitney. And this is like, yeah, that could get him producer of the show, Whitney, and it's his mom. Yeah. Like, yeah, that could get him kicked off the show. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappin's commercial. Have you ever wondered how a circus performer could become the most powerful woman in the Byzantine Empire? Even the Royals is a podcast from Wondery that pulls back the curtain on royal families,
Starting point is 00:19:44 from ancient empires to modern monarchs, to show you the darker side of what it means to be royalty. Before she ruled an empire, Theodora was a teen sensation in circus shows, featuring dancing bears, burlesque performers, and blood-soaked chariot races. But when her star came crashing down, she clawed her way from rock bottom to the very top,
Starting point is 00:20:02 using everything from comedy to espionage to get there. Empress Theodora didn't just survive. She revolutionized women's rights across the Byzantine Empire, like changing laws to let women divorce men, own property, and bring abusive men to justice. For all her work in pioneering, she's remembered as the most powerful
Starting point is 00:20:20 Byzantine Empress in history. Follow Even the Royals on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.

He's like, gosh, I'd say about 90% of it was spot on. And Craig's like, okay, so 90%? You're a bellish. No, no, 90% is a good thing. That was used. That was nice. What you said about Yeah, 90% that's like still in a that's great.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Sorry, I thought you were coming at me. I'm so scared of you. So one of my favorite Shakespeare characters, ho botanian. Sometimes you tell a tall tale. And so JT's like, wait, are you serious right now? You're gonna say and I called her a bitch. I mean, what's the 90% Craig and Shep's like, I mean, come on, JT, you play this moral outreach game on us. Like, we can't tolerate this behavior from a friend. And Craig's like, yeah, you know, we said, you said you we were enabling Austin to cheat on his girlfriend by staying friends with him. I mean, come on.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Yeah, but Craig also, but Craig kind of uses the same argument later in the episode, right? Yeah, I mean, Craig's a fucking liar and a hypocrite. If I'm friends with Austin, I'm enabling my behavior. So JT's like, shit. JT ruined himself in that first episode. He just ruined himself.
Starting point is 00:21:49 I mean, he did this to himself. Not the Patricia bitch thing, but he did all of the rest of this to himself. In one episode, he fucked up his entire life on this show. What a dummy. Yeah, he really came in thinking that he had, like, momentum behind him and he was gonna do a thing, and he messed up. So, he really came in thinking that he had like, momentum behind him and he was gonna do a thing and he messed up.
Starting point is 00:22:06 So he's like, Shamp, are you, you're gonna allow them just to roll, to roll you like this? And he's like, gosh, I don't care. All right, all right, I don't care, I don't care. So Craig, let's talk about your relationship with the truth. On Watcher Happens Live,
Starting point is 00:22:20 you said you had never lied on camera. Yeah, and I spied every single word of it. But there's a montage of me lying. He's like, yeah, okay, roll the tape. I'll show you, I'll walk you through it. I'll walk you through it and show you what not a liar I am. It's like I pulled Queen Elizabeth on her deathbed. I've never told a lie.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Yeah, I was sitting here on my hairy worm, and I was like, we're going to the place where I get to finally clear my name of being a liar. And that's how I became the most successful pillow salesman in all of Arrakis. So then Andy's like, well, we made this really hilarious montage of you lying for Watch What Happens Live. We're like, why waste it? Let's show it again, come made this really hilarious montage of you lying for watch what happens live.
Starting point is 00:23:05 We're like, why waste it? Let's show it again. Come on. Let's take a look. And it is just a montage of Craig lying his ass off. I mean, constantly lying the whole like, well, okay, well, I didn't pass the bar exam because I couldn't I didn't get my diploma. It's not what he said.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Like I didn't finish. Just because I didn't get my diploma or something. And then he goes to his parents and he's sitting with Whitney and chef and he's like, yeah, well, I mean, come on guys, I passed a fucking bar. And they're like, did you? Yeah. So, I mean, just over it. I never said that I passed the bar.
Starting point is 00:23:40 And then it's like him saying I passed the bar. He's like, I totally graduated. Well, I never graduated. So Andy's like, well, I passed the bar. He's like, I totally graduated. Well, I never graduated. So Andy's like, well, you lied about graduating. He's like, well, I still like, um, define graduating because like I walked, I was just like one credit short. Like, so you didn't graduate. And Shep's like, it's okay though.
Starting point is 00:23:59 You're an Adderall person. You're an addict. How do you need to say, look, that person was a mofo. It's okay to be fallible Listen, I mean you used Adderall as a crutch So now you have to use that you use Adderall as a crutch as a crutch Don't you understand now you'll have two crutches and you can walk do I need to show you how to do this? It's here ten Yes, Shakespeare wrote in his seminal play, The Sisters Rose in Swag, sometimes at all clouds your judgment and that's okay. Well I would never say anything on camera that could impeach me at the end of the day,
Starting point is 00:24:37 you get nothing for nothing and that's the life of the poor. It's like Craig, you fucking moron, they just showed a whole thing of you impeaching yourself sir. Yeah, yeah. Speaking of, how is he not a politician yet? That's his next move, right? Craig's gonna be mayor of something, or a politician, or a congressman, or some bullshit.
Starting point is 00:24:53 You know that's coming. Tariffs on pillows. So Andy's like, well, Austin, what is Austin's relation, what is Craig's relationship to the truth? He's like, whoa, it's insane. I won't outright call Craig a liar, because I'm scared of him, but you are an embellisher. Um, we have things that we're going to talk about soon,
Starting point is 00:25:13 so we'll get to that. Um, let's throw a commercial. Hey, that's my job. Oh, but we sound the same right now. Yeah, we do kind of sound the same right now. Ah. So Patricia arrives and Rod Caesar is like, whoa, the Queen has landed. Wow, the Queen is here.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Wow, everybody. She's like, Oh, they don't realize I know all their secrets. She knows the biggest secret of all, which is, where is Ryan? And why do we not get any, why do we not get to press this cast about what the heck happened with that whole barbershop situation? It doesn't even come up on this radio again.
Starting point is 00:25:51 That's true. That's true. How could you not even have Ryan for a little cameo for that? That's nuts. Well, that's probably what he probably chose not to come because he didn't want to get involved in that mess. Like, I'm not going to talk about that. I already spoke my truth and I don't have to be embarrassed on national TV about it anymore. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:03 But I feel like it's a big deal. Yeah. So, Vanita takes a drink over to JT's room. She's like, I brought this as a truce. Ha-ha. Oh, Vanita, the respect... Drink... Have the bartender make a glass of self-respect, please, because I can't. So... Well, to be fair, it has sugar in it, and he's like, this could kill me.
Starting point is 00:26:24 So, yes, have some self-respect, but at the same time, like, well done. I didn't realize it was Sugar. I thought he was saying, you trying to kill me, joking that she was trying to poison him. But that's funny. She's like, here's the spikers bar as a truce. That's how I took it because he was like, my alarm might go off or something like that.
Starting point is 00:26:40 So he's like- Okay, then the respect is back. Respect is back. Respect is back. A solid murder. The solid murder attempt. Okay, I'm back in. The producer's like, are you guys flirting again? Well, I'm just trying to be good.
Starting point is 00:26:54 How was your mother? It's like, oh, God, snooze. I love that Rod has nothing to say through this whole reunion except like little offhand comments like kind of off camera when they're not filming. He just walks up to JT, he's like, so are you ready for Miss Pat to apologize? Because she's right over there. Have fun. Yeah, he spends a lot of time going, hmm, hmm, hmm. To be fair, all Rodrigo has done this season has been leave a poker chip in his bag and then later on at the reunion, leave his couplings back in Charleston. So he's dealing with a lot of forgetful moments and that weighs on
Starting point is 00:27:29 a person. Yeah. So Miss Pat, it's your first reunion. First and last. By the way, whoever did this set is genius. I mean, just like my house, fake antiques, a painting in my house, an aging Peter Pan, probably going to inherit most of the money I made. Wait a minute. You forgot the rate. You forgot the radiator. Hey, you forgot the radiator that we tie Randy up to overnight. So don't you have the dog crate then it did a Randy sleeps in that's usually right by that antique chair over there?
Starting point is 00:28:07 We used to call it Chauncey's Home R.I.P. So Andy is like, well, it's with me so now hard to believe this show graced our screens over 10 years ago. Wow, such a change from the baby face law students. Let's take a look back. So we see young Shep and young Craig. It's like the sizzle reel, right? This isn't even from the show.
Starting point is 00:28:31 This is just the sizzle reel of the show. And Whitney especially looks, I mean, they really do all look different. And I have to say, 10 years has been rough on most of these guys. Good Lord, do you guys just ever put on sunscreen? Now, I don't look like I did 10 years ago either, but I don't look that different.
Starting point is 00:28:50 I mean, good Lord. When he had that haircut that he used to hate, it was like that middle part thing with the long bangs. He looked like someone had a broom over his head that he parted the way so he could see through it. Shep looked 10 years old in these clips. Yeah. And so did Craig. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Well, Ms. Shapp and I do commercial real estate, but I don't really do shit, course. Yeah, and Craig is like, yeah, you know, I always say that my wife isn't born yet. That's a joke. When Craig was struggling so hard to be just like the other guys, he's like, yeah, I'm super rich and I love dating young chicks. And then, like. He's like, yeah, I'm, I'm a super rich and I love dating young chicks. And then like Patricia's like, she's like lying a Kimbo, isn't that the term lying
Starting point is 00:29:31 a Kimbo on like a Ottoman with like some little nibbles nearby. And she's like, I'm used to being filmed in my boudoir. Oh yeah. These gentlemen are good looking, accomplished, rich, not even married, little scamps. So then Shep talks about wanting a family, but there's a window, and the window should open soon, but it'll probably close in about 10 to 12 years. And they're like, ugh, all the cast is like so awkward. It's been 12 years.
Starting point is 00:30:03 So now we're back, and Andy's like, Craig, you said your wife hasn't been born yet. Is that true? He's like, she's in middle school now. Ha ha ha ha ha. Like, maybe Madison said that. Yeah. Pat's like, Andy asked Patricia how she looks so great. Like, well, you know, speaking of people who haven't been born yet, I just go have Randy go to the hospital and take stem cells from fetuses that are on hold. And that that's always really helped.
Starting point is 00:30:34 So you never know. Craig could end up having a wife that I've already used to use in my gorgeous face. I could have some of Craig's wife right in my forehead. You know, I came to Charleston to retire and eat bomb bombs and Whitney wanted me to do five minutes and then it was like five minutes more and five minutes more and next thing you know I'm on this show full time. Yeah, I can't believe this show even lasted. I think it would be like most of Whitney's career choices, you know,
Starting point is 00:31:05 and be a flash in the pan. But here we are. I said who would be interested in this cast of Reprobates and their misdeeds? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha even understands hey, Sally, how many minutes is an hour 57? See? So I subtracted commercials, Andy, I'm a brain surgeon. So then we go to that's it. They're like, Okay, bye bye, Miss Pat. Jesus, I want a plane ride. That's all. So then we go to we didn't even ask if she forgives JT. Like we didn't even get that question. That was like the biggest thing of the season, right? Did they ask? I know they did. They should have they should have had like a moment. But I think that's I kind of get the sense that she's like, I'll come on the show, but I don't want to get embroiled in any
Starting point is 00:31:57 the back and forth or anything like that. So I was impressed and JT didn't try and give her a cane. Just like as a joke, like thinking I'm gonna make this hilarious. I'm gonna offer her the cane again to see if it's okay He would have done something awful Like I'm gonna give you the cane and I'm gonna get down on all four so you can hit me on the b-hon Cuz I've been a bad little boy Something awful like here's the cane miss Patricia. Oh, well how sweet of you another kind Well, this one has bitch inscribed on it. So well, at least he's up in his game. So Andy's like, all right, well, Craig,
Starting point is 00:32:31 you said Whitney was playing a joke. Did you think you'd be on the show for 10 years? He's like, well, three years was the gall. And he thought that the I pitched said the same thing. And he thought that the... Yeah, Paige said the same thing. I must made it. I must make it. So Patricia's like, yeah, and Patricia's talking about how she loved, like how she would invite Madison to the early parties. And she's like, two of the guys tried to hook up with her. And it was, of course, Greg and Chad.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Which they failed. Well, hey, why'd you say on Watch What Happens, Paige was mean to Craig? And she's like, well, I took a lot of criticism for that from people called the Jiggly Squad. And I said, why are all these chunky women coming after me? But you know, they're mad at me because I'm not a career-oriented woman,
Starting point is 00:33:20 which is just not true. I've always worked. But my point was it was dismissive and boarded on rude how she said it. Okay, so is that better? Okay, she's not mean, she's dismissive and rude. So there you go, jiggly ladies. Okay, you can stop Instagramming me now. What was so funny to me about this reunion was that they they cut several times to that Watcher Happens Live episode where Patricia said that Paige was mean and Austin said that there was they kept cutting that episode and that was the episode where we were bartenders.
Starting point is 00:33:51 I know they cut to the most handsome part of the whole thing and they cut to it 10 times. I'm like, how did you not cut to the two guys in the back going like this? Hi. Going like this. Or you were doing, you're going through the fingers. You were going like this. But like, I just thought it was so funny that like every time they cut to it, like just to know that like we were technically like three feet just to the side off of the frame. It's so funny.
Starting point is 00:34:13 Like we're just sitting there smiling. We were just sitting there permanently smiling because we didn't know when the camera would be on us again. So we're like. That was also the episode that Patricia said when he said, are you mad JT called you a bitch and she goes, Well, to be honest, I am a bitch.
Starting point is 00:34:29 So didn't really bother me that much. So now we this season, bye Pat for real now bye. So this season we were introduced to two new southerns. Sally, Molly. Unfortunately, we couldn't find someone named Dolly or Mally or... Or Sully. Or Bollywood. Molly, you said Charleston Men or Peter Pan jerks. You suck at life. She's like, yeah. I mean, do you guys watch the show? It's like that times a hundred. So like, what do you want for me? And then he asked her about like, what do you want from me? And then he asked her about like, her body image and all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:09 And she's saying, you know, it's just like hard to accept a new body and people online are just like really mean. And that's just like really affected me. Well, just a piece of advice, people on the internet are mean, whether you're thin, fat, young or old. This is the internet, not you.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Cause you're fucking gorgeous, ma'am. Yeah. So then Andy asks about the cupcake moment and she says that Whitney apologized, but I don't know, I kind of wanted more comeuppance for that. And Craig is like, I was like, dude, WTF. Brian Moiling quoted you, here's a Brian Moiling quote I'm going to read from history caps over at Vulture. Wow, tubas. What a goddess icon. Mother holy moly. What do you think of that? Yeah, well, music is beautiful and it changes you and like it can bring together like it can bring together a far-right MAGA and also a
Starting point is 00:36:07 gay liberal vulture reporter and that's what's so important about Atuba. Is she a far-right MAGA? No she isn't. I just I just was making that up. I wasn't saying she was. I'm just saying that like I imagine there's somewhere in the world there was someone a far-right MAGA who liked it as well. I was gonna say on this topic you probably not far off, I would guess. I just made a joke without a setup, it's okay. No. No, it's the... I was just like, damn, Molly?
Starting point is 00:36:33 Of all the people, I didn't expect Molly. So, Molly's like, yeah, music is beautiful, and it changes you, and it has no calories. So, that's great. And Andy's like, well, I was impressed how the group was so into it. Remember when Shep stood up and lifted up his shirt and said, look at my titties, hey,
Starting point is 00:36:50 play your tuba for titties. And you did, so he lifted his shirt up and circled his boobs around the theater. That was fun. Well, as Shakespeare once wrote in the seminal musical, the Heidi Chronicles, tuba is there because tuba doth of philia hear and feel.
Starting point is 00:37:17 And therefore, may the baritone sounds of my instrument fill your bones with love and joy and may your pretty little freckled tuba always find joy in all the things you ever do. So do you think that someone playing the instrument is sexy, Shapp? Are you gonna maybe think that's sexy? And he's like, yeah, oh my gosh, anybody playing any kind of instrument, banjo,
Starting point is 00:37:41 I don't know, tap on a table, I'll fuck ya. Great, great stuff, Andy. Put two spoons together, put two spoons together and bang them on your knees I don't know tap on the table. I'll fuck you great Together put two spoons together and bang them on your knees and we're gonna have a good time tonight I don't even care if you have any teeth whip out a harmonica. I'm in Just take a rubber band and put it between two fingers and pull it Wow All right, well next up we've got play the national anthem on your armpits. I don't care. Lincoln lock is like, nailed it. Get over here, lover boy.
Starting point is 00:38:14 So I had something completely unbelievable that the internet does not believe at all. And frankly, I don't really either. Sally saying she's a spine surgeon. L, oh, motherfucking L. Okay, Sally. What do you have to say about that? She's like, well, you know people think I'm just there if the robot malfunctions, but I'm the only person touching the robot Okay, everybody. So now the surgeon may be doing the surgery but you know, I'm the one with the robot the place is screws in your spine And Taylor we just is rolling her eyes. Taylor's like, Taylor, our resident robot's like, you never touch me.
Starting point is 00:38:54 She's like, as someone from the robot community, bullshit. Sally's like, yeah, I'm just the only one who touches the robot, which, you know, until you've blown a robot into the parking lot of the Great American Steakhouse, you really can't comment on my career. I mean, at first it was a shock of my life, but you get used to it. So, Andy's like, well, hey, you've gone through a lot of men. How'd you end up getting with chefs?
Starting point is 00:39:18 I was like, damn, Andy. And... She... She... She... She... Sally says that he slid into her DMs. And is Sally the only person to ever kick Shep out of bed? And she's like, I did, I did. You know what?
Starting point is 00:39:34 Because I was ashamed of myself. Because I'm not someone who has a one night stand. Okay, could we tell the blow job in the parking lot story? Please, come on, Sally. So, Taylor, we got comments that you were bothered by the hookup. Well, she can do what she wants, but she was saying that Shep was obsessed. No, he was just blowing up my phone. It's like, yeah, that's the same as saying he's obsessed. Whatever. And I'm still not with, by the way, and I'm still not with Andrew. Okay, Taylor said he's weird and he is weird. So I will have her back on.
Starting point is 00:40:14 That's the one thing I will have her back on. Yeah, she keeps trying to kind of be nice to Taylor. Taylor, what do you fucking care? She, you didn't prove her wrong that Shep was blowing up her phone. Why is that so unbelievable? She's young and she's blonde and she's thin. Shep blows up all of their phones, but Taylor's still so stuck on fucking Shep it's sad.
Starting point is 00:40:33 It's sad, Taylor. Stop it. You are better than this. So then it's Taylor's turn. Taylor stepped out of a nightmare last season when she was dating George Washington teeth over here, but then she stepped into a fairy tale. So are you still together with Gaston? Hmm. A year and a half almost. Oh cool. Wow, there's so much chatter about him. I would love to give you the floor to
Starting point is 00:40:58 clear things up. Um. I think we go straight, like that's the biggest deal ever. Taylor just going, um... And then cutting to commercial made me laugh so hard. Fucking Taylor. Um, he's an incredible human being, and he treats me well, and I'm gonna hold him close. Okay, well, um, Shep, you called Gaston mid.
Starting point is 00:41:20 What did you think about that? And does it hurt more, Taylor, when someone mid calls someone else mid? I think about, I think talking about someone's looks is very middle school and very mean girl. And she was like, I agree. I'm a little poor. I've learned my lesson. Well, some I consider it mid to critical. Hippomidical. Medical? Medical? West one medical. that's the kind of medicine I do Andy. So he was like, I agree, that wasn't cool. And
Starting point is 00:41:59 Shep, you know, you said that her family wanted her to be with you. And is that really true? And he goes, well, that wasn't really fair to say, you know, it's just that I knew that her mom and dad and everybody in her family would just want her to be with me, you know, because I'm rich-ish. So not rich enough to buy a house for gold digging people in the Bahamas, but certainly rich enough for her. I mean, my cabin's on a bigger hill.
Starting point is 00:42:23 That's all I meant Andy You know, I was at our brother's funeral. Sorry, I gotta go there But her sweet sweet granddad was like are you and Taylor ever gonna get back together? I know it's like oh my gosh and Taylor's like I don't think he would ever say that at this point I just I care about her and I'll never stop doing that. And if I could give her a great white tooth shark necklace every day, I would. Um, you know, Shep, saying that is kind of low, I guess.
Starting point is 00:42:55 But saying information that you got from her brother's funeral is low. You didn't have to include that context. He could have just said, I spoke to one of her family members and they said that. I don't know. So Taylor's like, well, what's frustrating is hearing you say you care a whole hell of a lot. Like, why didn't you care when you had your tongue down some other girl's throat while
Starting point is 00:43:17 your finger was in her wet pussy while you were coming in her face? Like Taylor, Taylor. She always loses at the reunion. She always goes a little too hard. You're like, Whoa, Taylor. Yeah, she she kept it pretty like calm in this one. Of course, she didn't have Olivia on the other couch calling her the C word. Every other every other sentence either. So I guess she didn't have that to fight.
Starting point is 00:43:40 So and he's like, All right. Well, one person who's had a lot to say about Gaston is Sally. Sally, why do you keep talking about it? And she's like, well, I stopped completely. I mean, she's the one who's continued to go around town, you know, talking about me. And she's like, well, you're in a new friend group and you're talking about me and you're going around town. I'm going around town. That's crazy. She's like, yeah, you're talking about my boyfriend, but you're still running your mouth about me today. Yesterday, the day before. I mean, it's like 23 six. So you know what I'm talking about? Nonstop.
Starting point is 00:44:20 You got nothing better going on in your life. Yeah, but Taylor, if you date a man that half the town has dated and he's been a shithead to all of those people, they're gonna talk about him. Sorry, you know, don't date a villain if you don't want your boyfriend to be villainized. She's experienced him and she has the right. She bought the product.
Starting point is 00:44:39 She's not an unverified Amazon review. She has bought the product and she has the right to leave her one star. Sorry, data better product. Leva's like, I think by the way guys, the whole point is that you came into her friend group, which wasn't even her friend group. She just sort of was like grandfathered in sort of by a chef
Starting point is 00:44:56 and understandably that is like your experience and you talked about a guy she hadn't even introduced to the group yet, even though we all knew who he was because Gaston's really been with everyone in Charleston. So it's understandable from both ends, you guys. I'm so glad Levis here to lecture everybody about more shit she had nothing to do with.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Like, what the fuck? Leave us alone. Leave me alone, lady. So Taylor is like, you don't have to scream into the mountaintops, into our friend group. And Andy's like, well, Sally, do you want to have a relationship with Taylor Anne? Ha! I'm gonna keep on saying Taylor Anne.
Starting point is 00:45:30 And Sally's like, no, not while she's dating Gaston. So basically, Taylor thinks that she's gonna get married to Gaston and she thinks it's gonna happen within a year. And they're gonna have a terrible relationship, happily, never after. And by the way, we have no evidence that Gaston has even said that to her. She's just like... She's put on the spot. Like, do you think you're gonna get married?
Starting point is 00:45:51 She's like, I think. Well, when do you think? Well, I think maybe this year. Like, you're dating another chef, ma'am. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. All right, well, this season, Charles is resin Martha Stewart, a.k.a. Craig, I just have to clarify that because I see a lot of blank faces here on the studio,
Starting point is 00:46:11 attempted to live out his suburban dreams with a brand new pool and a side hustle as a beekeeper. But at the end of the season, Craig was stung when his queen abruptly left the hive and he was left with no honey, but a lot of allergies and also some wax. And there was a long montage to show us Craig and Paige, just, you know, so we don't have to go through it all. Just imagine this for 10 minutes. You're stupid, shut up.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Okay. And montage. So, all right, well, Craig, I know we have to discuss the breakup, but first I wanna know, how's the sewing business going? It's really good. I'm about to launch a new concept that was really difficult and took us three years of like,
Starting point is 00:46:57 workshopping but circular pillows. That's right. No more stopping and turning 90 degrees on the sewing machine. We're just going full circle. It's really hard, but we're happy for it. Yeah, no one's ever done it before, but, you know, we're... I'm happy to be the first man on the moon, Andy,
Starting point is 00:47:13 which is also round. So, branding. We are sewing individual moons into pillows going forward. We're gonna be using a zigzag stitch. It's very exciting. Well, you got more... You got some flack this season for being concerned about your image more than your friends. So what do you think about that?
Starting point is 00:47:32 And stuff's like, what? I mean, there has to be a balance, right? Why, look at me. I have only friends and no business. That's called balance, Craig. You know? You know, if Craig had been a bit more communicative looking back, maybe he could have sent a long text talking about the freckles on my lips and then making a bummo at the end like, thank
Starting point is 00:47:52 you for listening to my Ted talk. Well, well, then, you know, then, you know, but you know, that would have helped a lot, but you did, you know, you did have your talk with Austin on the beach and that was very nice. So, Andy's like, Austin, did his relationship with Paige, sorry, Austin did his relationship with Paige cause him to pull back from his friendship with you? Here's your chance to do what you always do on this show gentlemen and blame the woman. And so Austin's like, well, you know, to get in a relationship like Craig was in, I mean,
Starting point is 00:48:19 there's no shame to make that person your number one. But you know, I mean, when things go wrong. I can't even tell you Andy. It's the same. It's the same. It just shows you didn't even lean on any of his friends. Shep was like, well, you know, third party friendships are really important to us. Third party friendships. What the fuck is he like a Facebook consent form I have to fill out? Is this a reject all cookies situation or? 30 party friendships are very difficult when Apple is tracking their every single move. But I think do not track, do not track.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Taylor's like, I'm sorry that you already hit that. You already hit that checkbox. I think his anchor was dug in so deep with her that maybe it wasn't a healthy thing in the end for him. Well, my only way to get to where I wanted to do to get on my journey was to really isolate myself, and I really liked having someone at home to go to, even though it was more of like a drawing
Starting point is 00:49:21 that I made of her and put on my couch since she didn't come to Charleston anymore. Yeah, like, I'm going through a really hard time, so to stay at home and then not have my prop that I've worked so hard to get to my house there, really hurt Andy. Really, really hurt. Andy goes...
Starting point is 00:49:36 Well, looking from the outside, it seemed like you were setting up a life for the two of you that only one of you is interested in. Let's roll the clip. And so you think it's gonna be another montage of PageMe like, disgusting, but it's literally just her at the bee farm being like, Ew. Bees. It's actually literally like Craig saying like, wow, like we're getting honey. And she's like, or you could just go to the store and get like
Starting point is 00:49:59 a normal person. It's like a honey clip. Yeah, but that was the whole scene where it was just so clear where he's like, look, look at this goat, like we're gonna have goats. She's like, no, gross. Okay, but like, it's goats are like children. We can't wait to have children, right Paige? And she's like, disgusting. He's like, oh my god, I'm so glad we're on the same page. Even your name is Paige.
Starting point is 00:50:24 So and he's like, do you think there were signs you missed in the relationship? And this is a rhetorical question because all of America says, yes, there were big, huge billboards. He's like, well, the funny thing is that like, I was working on myself to stop reacting to signs, which is why I had so many traffic accidents the past year.
Starting point is 00:50:42 It was really rough. He's such a fucking weirdo. What does that mean? I'm working on myself to stop reacting to signs. What does that mean? That's like the dumbest thing you could possibly do. And he says that she stopped visiting in Charleston because she was quote unquote too busy. No, not quote unquote. Not quote unquote. She's too fucking busy to be flying every weekend to see you because you won't leave your goddamn store, sir. Okay. 60 show tour. Yeah. So he's like, and she didn't come to my Nashville store. That's weird. She should have gone. I mean, that is kind of weird because she was too busy.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Quote unquote. It's not weird. It's not weird. It's not weird if you don't like the person. If you don't like the person, it's not weird. Break up with them. I mean, if you're not even gonna go to your boyfriend's store that they opened, that is weird. But I think that guy had the sign. Obviously, yes. You should, like,
Starting point is 00:51:34 if you're in a healthy relationship, like, it's... Of course. We're not in a relationship. You'd come to my store. You know? Yeah, but it's just so funny. He's like, I was totally blindsided. Yeah. Fuck it's just so funny. He's like, I was totally blindsided. This is just like tangible. Like, this is, this is, this is just like bricks of evidence
Starting point is 00:51:54 just put on your lap. I can't believe it. Yeah. Quote, unquote too busy is kind of the problem with you, Craig, you know? And he's like, yeah, it was so confusing being in a relationship sometimes. Yeah, because you kept telling her the things that she is, and she kept telling you that she's not those things, Craig. It's confusing because you were trying to implant what you wanted onto somebody instead of listening to what they wanted. You see? But what's also funny is how like he is, he basically is shaming Paige for being too busy
Starting point is 00:52:22 with her career. The whole thing is like, you have to prioritize our relationship. You're too busy. You're not spending time. And yet this is the exact same thing. What Paige is doing to Craig is the exact same thing that Craig does to his friends, where he's like, I've got to focus on my career. I've got to focus on my job. So maybe he's doing that because that is how he's processing what's happening to him. But it's, you know, classic Craig hypocrisy. So, then he goes into this again, which I still don't believe. Yeah, she was like, I'd like you to get me a ring. I think it's time. I just, I don't ever hear those words coming out of her mouth. I just don't hear it. I don't believe
Starting point is 00:52:59 it. So he says he had a four carat elongated cushion cut made with half-carat diamonds around the band. And then after he got the ring, she was like, no, you need to wait until I announce the business. What business? I don't know. Do you know what you're talking about? But looking back, it didn't feel right, you know? And so he's gonna take it back,
Starting point is 00:53:20 because I don't really give jewelry like my friend over there. And Shep's like, it was a Megalodon tooth! The other one was a Grey One! Of course, how many times will I have to explain that? Alright Andy, recently on Watch What Happens Live, you alluded to rumors that Paige moved on with another guy that were substantiated. So Austin's saying, you know, this is the clip to Austin on the show saying like, yeah, no, those are, no, no, the rumors are like, yeah, she moved on. So now he's like saying, well, I shouldn't have said that because like, I don't know the girls day to day,
Starting point is 00:53:54 but it looked like repetitive dates and like, that's why I thought it doesn't seem like a rumor, you know? You know, at one point, three different outlets, three different gossip writers corroborated a story. Now did they get, were they just quoting each other and sourcing each other? Perhaps. But if it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, it might just be Ken Burns' seminal documentary, The Vietnam War. Quack. Do you mean like those ducks in that sweet cartoon with Scrooge McDuck because our children could watch that vanilla one day? Alright, shut up JT, your segment's over. Paige responded to the accusation.
Starting point is 00:54:34 She said, the narrative took a turn really quickly that I cheated. Let me say this here and now. I don't, I did not cheat on my ex-boyfriend. We were broken up for a full month, and I didn't say anything because he asked me not to say anything." And Craig goes, that's not true. Yes, it fucking is. You even said yourself that she broke up with you right after Thanksgiving, and you didn't believe it and didn't want to talk about it. So you really did not, you really did not say you want to go public with it, then why did she have to text you
Starting point is 00:55:03 and tell you that she was going to go public with it a month later, Craig, if you remember. Bullshit. So, Andy's like, do you think that she cheated on you? I'm not even like, I'm not, like, I can't, I'm not going to even think about, talk about anything like that. And so Shep is like, well, what do you think, Andy?
Starting point is 00:55:20 You saw the little reports? The sweet little freckled reports? And Andy's like, well, that's an HR issue. Ha ha. We definitely don't have HR here. But Craig said, Craig is acting like, well, I'm not even gonna talk, I would never say anything like that.
Starting point is 00:55:35 I'm just not gonna talk about it. Hinting that yes, she might've cheated. But meanwhile, he just said that she broke up with him right after Thanksgiving, and she wasn't rumored to date this guy for a month later. So you can't have it both ways. You're admitting that she's telling the truth, yet hinting that she's fucking lying, Craig.
Starting point is 00:55:52 This is why Craig's a piece of shit, you know? And he keeps looking down like, I just can't believe it. Yeah, you can, she broke up with you a month prior. Oh my God. Yeah, so, um. Well, Kyle and Amanda recently defended Paige. You unfollowed Kyle and Amanda. Well, they said there is something wrong
Starting point is 00:56:10 with how I'm handling being broken up with, and like she broke up with me, and I protected her to the end of the earth, but that ended the day that you cut me out of your life. Yeah, I mean, it's like, yeah, they said that like, it's my fault for not going on every little Reddit thread and defending her. Those weren't little Reddit threads. Those were huge news stories as your friends just pointed out to you, sir.
Starting point is 00:56:32 For you not to even come out and say, no, this is bullshit. She didn't cheat. It's shitty of you if you want to stay friends with her. So then, uh, douche from bags are my life because I live in Charleston, says on Twitter, women everywhere are gonna be pursuing Craig so hard after seeing how he cheated or how he treated Paige. I mean, telling a woman that she shouldn't have a career once she has a family, I mean, it's just so sexy, Craig. Uh, what do you think? Have you talked to Paige?
Starting point is 00:57:00 And he's like, no, she cut me out of my life. She cut me out of my life. She cut me out of her life. Yeah. And Madison is apparently, he's... I'm not dating, because I'm sad. And Madison's been sending him like girls, and Craig is like, the dating thing, I feel like I kind of want to be fully healed. Unless a super hot girl comes along
Starting point is 00:57:21 and he used to date like Dak Prescott, but other than that, like, I can't date. Craig is so ready for marriage that all he wants to do is find someone that he can immediately settle down with and have babies, is dating someone who's young, in her 20s, influencer who only dates sports figures. Yep.
Starting point is 00:57:41 That's really bringing your whole storyline truth to light here, Craig. CRAIG Yeah. And he's like, and he's like, well, you know, like, maybe you seem like maybe it's like a little relieved about not having to cover for anything. He's like, well, I'm really sad, but there's a lightness to it. Because I did a lot of living by myself. And in my head, I was like, one day we'll do this together, one day we'll get a whole bunch of bee stings getting a little bit of honey
Starting point is 00:58:08 that we probably will never use together. And I was in love not with reality, I was in love with the potential of what we could be and I think I was blinded by making it want to work. Oh well. That's the most honest thing he said. I was not in love with reality, I was in love with the potential of what could be. Yep
Starting point is 00:58:27 Okay there. I won't call bullshit on that because that's the most honest you've been and you're the sucker for that sucker So then at the break Rod, of course messy-ass Rod. This is the only time he speaks He's like so chef when are you gonna start screaming and yelling? Your turn is coming up soon All right. I'll go back and sit over here and say nothing. I have an out of chance too, but I'm healed. I had Ayugoshka and now I'm calm. So Andy's like, alright Craig and Paige may have dominated recent headlines, but the real love story has always been Craig and Shep and Austin,
Starting point is 00:59:00 but this season has been a rocky road. Last season Shep was, and the two of you were keeping him at arm's length. And Austin's like, yeah, Craig has always been able to, like, draw the line in the sand, and, like, I haven't been able to do that, like, with Shep especially. He calls me, and I'm like, this motherfucker. And I'm like, ugh, don't answer. And then I answer, and I'm like, this is insane right now.
Starting point is 00:59:18 I can't believe I answered. And Craig's like, why do you do that to yourself? And, like, you're mad at him. I'm like, I know, Craig. It's insane. I can't help myself. I'm addicted to helping So we basically talk about how they got together and they started making it work again And that Greg thinks it's so offensive that they accused him of curating his image and he's like so insulting I can't believe my friends would say that you know, I was just working on myself
Starting point is 00:59:42 You know where I come from if you stop drinking alcohol, it's cuz you have a problem with alcohol, you know, I was just working on myself. You know, where I come from, if you stop drinking alcohol, it's because you have a problem with alcohol, you know? So to be fair, when we got to the Bahamas, Austin finally understood it when I told him I was having a problem with alcohol as I drank a full bottle of alcohol by myself from the bottle. Yeah, I mean, I guess I could have seen some signs too with your past. Like maybe he does have a problem with alcohol, but like when I came to your house. He started running stop signs, Andy. It was insane.
Starting point is 01:00:08 He like saw no signs. Hey, I was running out of that. Well, to be fair, I also didn't see signs. Unfortunately, both of us kept crashing our cars into each other. It was insane. But when I came to your house, I was like purely out of like,
Starting point is 01:00:21 Craig, I know you've been busy. And I was hoping that you'd be like, look, maybe I've lost touch with some of my personal relationships. Instead you looked at me and of like, Craig, I know you've been busy and I was hoping that you'd be like, look, maybe I've lost touch with some of my personal relationships. Instead you looked at me and were like, stop spitting at me. And I was like, I can't help it, Craig. You used to understand that about me.
Starting point is 01:00:34 Yeah, and he's like, you know, I'm just like terrified of Craig. So you're scared of him? Yeah, I'm terrified of him sometimes. And so Andy's like, so Craig, do you have a bad temper? He goes, I'm working on it. That's why I don't drink anymore on camera. And so Andy is like, So is anyone else scared of Craig? And pretty much everybody raises everyone raises their hands.
Starting point is 01:00:56 Yeah, one's like, and we see a clip of him kind of having a fit at the table. They're like, Why would you be mad? And they show a clip of the table where he's kind of questioning people or whatever. But why didn't they show the clip of him walking into that room being like, oh, fuck this. I'm not poor, I'm not sleeping here, it's ridiculous. I don't have to share a room.
Starting point is 01:01:17 Yeah, well, I thought the clip, I think, and then they also showed a clip of him when they went on their Denver, or their Colorado ski trip, and he was drunk at the airport, and Cameron's like, Craig, Craig, Craigery, why are you yelling? And Chelsea's like, are you drunk? Um, but they should have, they should have shown him
Starting point is 01:01:33 yelling about that, uh, being, like, having a diva fit, um, because that was from this season. But yeah, he's like out of control. And then his response is, you guys don't have to rub it in. Like, you don't, if everyone it in. Like, you don't, if everyone's terrified of you, you don't get to be the victim to be like, stop being mean to be, stop being mean about how I'm like a monster to you guys. That's not nice or fair. Oh my God, like you've got this guy Austin, like what grown man complains that his friend wants to stay home and stop drinking?
Starting point is 01:02:06 Like what kind of man does that? And someone on Twitter called him a mean guy for that. And they're like, oh my God, yeah, that was really mean of Paige. Well, how do you guys want it? Like if she didn't ever stand up for me, you'd be like Paige never sticks up for him. Paige was so mean to him,
Starting point is 01:02:20 but now Paige is sticking up for him, you know? Craig does say like she was just sticking up for me, but everyone else is like, Oh, page. Page also hates Austin. Let's not forget how Austin massively screwed over Sierra, one of pages closest friends, and how Austin would come to the summer house and be a total asshole. And how remember when you like, oh my god, you forget, you don't get to, you don't get to close the door on me. Okay? You don't get to do that. I will fucking kick your ass.
Starting point is 01:02:47 So like, she has never liked Austin, and so she's more than happy to find an opportunity to mock him as she should. So those guys haven't been supportive of their relationship either, except in Austin. They, every, how many times has there been like, like murmurings about like, she doesn't come on the vacations.
Starting point is 01:03:06 Yeah, so next up is the podcast, Craig trying to buy the podcast for 30 grand. And Craig's like, you know, I just like I get frustrated with Austin because like I know his goals. And if he got like me and stop drinking on camera, like he could get there, you know, all he really needs is a good friend to like, do all of his business for him. He used his name to become a success. Like, you know, I really believe in him. Well, do you think he has a...
Starting point is 01:03:33 Do you think he has his drink? He's holding him back? It's like, well, he doesn't have a drinking problem. It's like, oh, when you said I was shocked, shocked right now. Well, what about... Or you said he was also zanned out. Just to be clear, I don't have a zanix problem.
Starting point is 01:03:47 I do have a saliva problem. Craig will see these things and make me look like I'm the problem, it's me, and it's not the truth at all. And I posted something about getting mimosas on Sunday and Craig was like, Oh wow, somebody's in their party era. It's disgusting, it's insane right now. Yeah, well I was disappointed, cause you were drinking. Oh, shut the fuck up, Craig. Give me a break. On Sunday, having a mimosa brunch? Come on. And he's, you know, so they do the whole, like, here man, because I don't, I was, you don't, sorry.
Starting point is 01:04:16 Craig, you're like, I don't want to go out anymore, you know? Like, I get margs with rods at Santy's, and we're home by eight o'clock, and you're like judging me for it, you know? Um, and Madison said... Madison said to me the other day that like, and it hit me like a ton of bricks when she said this. She said,
Starting point is 01:04:32 bottom line, Craig does not respect you. And that's like, I did say that, yeah. Yeah, it was hilarious. I said it. Watching the blood just like drain out of his face in that moment as he realized that entire friendship was built off of nothing. I thought that was just wonderful.
Starting point is 01:04:45 He's like, well, I mean, I guess I respect him, but like we've seen him drink, makes me mad. So then Rodrigo gets asked a question, you know, does does Austin complain about getting judged by Craig? And he's like, I mean, he's like, it's just like weird for him to be judgmental because like he's not hurting anybody. Like, what's he doing? He's just drinking. Like, what the hell?
Starting point is 01:05:06 And Lev is like, he feels like you think you're better than him, and you treat him like you're better than him, and you're more successful than him. Yeah, it's like you're in an ivory tower sometimes, like superiority. Craig's like, see, this is the stuff that makes me not want to hang out with him. Isn't it funny how Austin looks so small from where I'm sitting when you're really successful, the smaller Austin looks right now. See you're talking like you're in a tower again. Well, yeah, it's just like you're saying, like I live in soap. That's not cool.
Starting point is 01:05:35 Like I just remodeled my house, you know? And if you think I'm better, if I think, if you think I think I'm better than you, you guys just shouldn't be my friend then. You just shouldn't be my friends. And... It's such an obnoxious response. Such a baby. He's like, I'm really working on my anger. Oh, really, you don't agree with me?
Starting point is 01:05:53 We can't be friends then. Idiots. Poor people. Craig was like, guys, you don't have to rub it in that I'm a monster. And then Austin is like, you're like, condescending to me. He's like, well, maybe you're deser-ing. Like, he then r you're deseret.
Starting point is 01:06:06 Like, he then rubs it in, you know, Austin. I can't control the way you perceive my actions. Yeah, and Vanita's like, dude, he's trying to tell you how he feels, you're being rude. He's like, oh, then don't be my friend then. IAN LAUGHS It's so obnoxious. So Austin's like, Craig, I've been battling with this,
Starting point is 01:06:24 and that's what I've been trying to tell you. I don't know if I should be your friend. Like, why continue on if I get backhanded for stepping out of line? It's a crazy concept. I don't know if with anyone else, you're in ivory tower, bro. Well, you admitted something really personal to Austin, and we love pretending that we care about alcohol addiction
Starting point is 01:06:46 problems on this show before we offer our guests full bars and drink every night after the show. Okay, so let's talk about do-do-do alcoholism. Craig, I think I have a problem with alcohol. Wow, that was so brave, Craig. So brave. BLAIR He's like, yeah, it's weird to talk about. And Leva's like, well, yeah, but like, you know what? If you were open, this entire friend group
Starting point is 01:07:10 would scoop you up and have your back, you know? Like, I just think, like, you have addictive personality where it's all page or like it's all work or like it's all whatever, you know? Like, God put, or the universe put these gods in your life to have balance, you know? You need some balance, not new balance, which you cannot wear after 8 p.m. In any of my clubs But balance Craig and he's like shut it Craig's just looking at her like shut the fuck up We don't even like each other Lava. You know
Starting point is 01:07:38 There's no world no way. There's no scenario in the life where? The universe puts Shep and Austin into anyone's life so that way they can have more balance. That's just not the way the universe or anything has ever worked in the and say, why didn't you just say it? But it's like, it's hard for us to be completely open and vulnerable. Like, and when Craig opened up to me and made me emotional and like, there's a genuine care for Craig. Like fucking love you, bro. Oh God. So Andy's like, well, you changed your relationship
Starting point is 01:08:15 with alcohol, but Austin's still terrified of you. What do you think of that, Craig? And he's like, I mean, I'm saying like, it sucks you guys think that about me. I'm gonna work on it with new friends, you know? And they're like, well, maybe you need to just be more communication. That's the buzzword today. You just need more communication. No, it's not communication. You just saw what happens when Craig tries to communicate or people try to communicate with Craig. So everybody's like,
Starting point is 01:08:38 oh, my God, you guys should be so fun. You're like the heart of the show, guys. And Craig goes, well, maybe I'll have a celebratory beer with you.'" And Madison's like, "'Uh-uh, we're drinking N.A. now. Come on, man.'" Hey, I just love Craig really milking, like, I have a problem with alcohol. I'm an alcoholic. I can't, like, I couldn't be friends with you because I'm an alcoholic.
Starting point is 01:09:01 And he's like, "'Maybe I'll have a beer with you tonight.'" I'm like, wait. I know, like, you know, there's different approaches and like different types of sobriety or whatever, but like he really is milking the sobriety thing but then very quickly it's like, oh, I'm gonna have a beer and no one bats an eye because they all know like with Craig, you just don't know what you're... Well, he could have meant non-alcoholic, but the problem with Craig and his whole sobriety
Starting point is 01:09:23 thing for me and the reason I rag on it and don't with other people is, well, I do some people. But the reason I rag on it with Craig is because he literally used the word alcoholic, and it's just bullshit. I just don't believe that he's quit alcohol. And he said multiple times he had a problem with hard liquor, so he'll only drink beer. And he's drinking less than he used, he's not going out and getting wasted, but he's still drinking socially or whatever. Okay, that's okay if you want to do that. But to be like, I'm an alcoholic and use that as like your, your kind of sympathy storyline when you're still drinking alcohol.
Starting point is 01:09:55 It's like, no, that's not how you quit drinking. It's just, it's just a mind fuck. And Craig just gets away with these little like, I'm going to let people believe by drinking non alcoholic beers that I'm gonna let people believe by drinking non-alcoholic beers that I'm not drinking at all. And then if he's ever called on drinking or being seen drinking, he's like, oh, well, that's because it's just like,
Starting point is 01:10:12 I'm drinking less. Okay, so which is it? You know, it's just a Craig answer. And it's just frustrating to listen to Craig lie over and over. It's frustrating. It makes me crazy. So Craig is, so Andy is like,
Starting point is 01:10:24 well, so do you think next year you'll have a girlfriend, Craig? He's like, I don't think you can plan that stuff. Literally that has been your entire storyline has been planning out like every single beat of your love life and your future marriage and family. And then Andy is like, how about next month? Probably next month. Probably next month. Yeah, next month.
Starting point is 01:10:45 I've got to heal. I've been hurt by Paige. I need to get into protective cocoon. I can't have a girlfriend. Wait, hold on one second. Oh, a really super hot girl just texted me. Yeah, I'm dating someone. Yeah, drop your life, I'm impregnating you.
Starting point is 01:11:00 So basically it's like now it's the part of the reunion where everyone's like, oh my God, we can totally repair all of our friendships. And JT cares about people one day at a time, guys. One day at a time. Not seven days, otherwise I'm finding another girlfriend. Okay, but one day. And Vanita's like, well, I can't do much
Starting point is 01:11:20 because he's dating somebody right now. So it's like, okay, great. We put a bow on that stupid ass controversy. then andy is like well shep i feel like it's a tradition by now i'd love to give you the floor to have some final thoughts would you please take it away shep well auntie look look everybody we're all on a tv show who would have ever guessed it and you know being on tv so hard because people are so mean to us on the internet. They call me George Washington teeth and make Shakespeare jokes and stuff and shark necklace jokes.
Starting point is 01:11:55 But you know what? At the end of the day, I'm a good little boy and you all know it. And I'm a better person now because I haven't fucked over any woman on TV this year and also got victimized by a gold digging slut in the Bahamas. So cheers to me. Cheers to us. But mostly to me everybody. If there are any 22 year olds out there who want an old man who gets mailbox money, give me a call. Cheers. And so ends this season, the 10th season of Southern Charm.
