I just think it's going to be hilarious. And it'll be so low rent and so silly. And we're just going to have the best time. So I'm really excited for. I'm excited to do it. I'm excited and scared. Yes. Yes, I'm excited and scared as well, my little Goldilocks.

So today, here on Crappy Hour, lots been going on on Bravo, of course. One of the biggest things was that Bravo caused a stir when they released their announcement for their up fronts, 2026. Bravo unveils new series. Vanderpump rules Lisa Las Vegas and Secret Lies, Texas Wives, alongside several fan favorite renewals. Secret Lies, Texas Wives. No, there's not even an end.

It's just Secret Lives and Texas. No. They bungled their lives and Texas Wives. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Gosh, I feel like Bravo. I mean, obviously,

Bravo has built its brand off of like ripping off the names of other shows, but I don't like it ripping off the names of other reality shows that are like less, that are made more poorly. I mean, I really like Secret Lives Mormon Wives, or at least the season and a few episodes that I watched. It was obviously really good. But like, I feel like they should be ripping off Bravo. Bravo should not be ripping off Hulu personally, but this is minor. Well, didn't they have one called Secrets and Wives on Bravo? They did. They did.

Who ripped off him? Wait, if Secrets Live and Texas Wides? The chicken to the egg. Which came first? The hair parted in the middle or the Mormon. Okay. I would be so happy if Secrets Lives and Texas Wives had some of the cast members from Secrets and Wives. Honey, I'm going to do an Insta.

Max, I'm going to do an Insta. That show was a train wreck, and I loved it. It was a Liza. You just got Lizaed. Wasn't that that show? I'm paralyzed. Unlimited paralyzed right now. All right.

So some of the news shows that they have, Vanderpump rules Lisa Las Vegas. Lisa Vanderpump has been ruling over the Las Vegas for use now. Has she now? I mean, she's there. That's for sure. But ruling over, I don't know.

This is about her hotel, I believe, right? Let's see. Now she is expanding her Vegas Empire through the opening of a high-profile namesake hotel. In this limited series, we follow behind the scenes dash to make the property worthy of the van der pump brand. Are they going to install leaks into the ceiling and? Will we smell bar rod when we walk in?

Just want to know, will there be an oversized pendulum that will swing through the restaurants and you have to avoid it like that one America's next top model challenge? Jacks is just going to come into your room, snort coke off your wife's ass and steal something. Yeah. It's a part of the experience. Will any restaurant ever be able to aspire to the Vanderpump brand? Hard to say. Maybe the Vanderpump brand is just some boxes and packing tape

because last time we checked, a bunch of the restaurants have closed. Yeah, I don't know. I'm excited to see because you know Nicolane's going to be there and she'll be doing the whole like, oh, I love this chandelier, but I'd like to replace it with the chandelier inside of a cage. inside of a chandelier, inside of a cage, inside of a sandalier, until everything's just, you know, box, box, box, box, tiny little light in the middle, you know.

Yeah. I mean, I don't know. I mean, I'll be, I'll be happy to watch this one. You know, we both enjoyed the Vanderpump Rules reboot. But notably, the Vanderpump Rules reboot was not one of the shows that was given a green light for a second season that was announced. And so people are thinking, oh, is it not coming back? Is it not coming back?

but I had heard that it was coming back. So, and then apparently its numbers on Peacock were really strong. So hard to say what's happening, but people are in a tizzy that this is going forward, but not classic Vanderpump rules. Wait, is it not announced here in this thing? They didn't add Vanderpump rules on here?

It's not announced. It's not one of the renewals. Jumping ahead a little bit, talking about what's got renewed and what didn't, but it's not one of the ones. And Ladies of London was conspicuously off the list as well. Although I think that I would not be surprised at Bravo was taking like a little bit of a wait and see because ladies of London did not get amazing ratings, but it had amazing chatter. So I don't know.

I mean, I think that Bravo would be just absolutely foolish to not bring that show back. It was just so good. Yeah. But yeah, I don't know. I don't know what's happening right here with Vanderpump rules. I mean, what do you think about Vanderbump rules as it exists on Bravo right now? like the Lisa Vanderpump thing and exploring the world of Lisa Vanderpump, does it still have that same excitement?

Obviously, we know it doesn't have the same excitement. But in a time right now, we're in such a summer house moment. We're so dominated by Summerhouse and that sometimes when Summerhouse is really thriving, Vanderpump rules seems almost dated. But then when Vanderpump rules thrive, sometimes Summerhouse feels dated. It's almost like they can never be thriving at the same time, I feel like. I don't know. I mean, I don't think this is like a real show. This is just one of those, you know, we're going to spend six weeks watching Lisa open her hotel. It's like when one of the housewives gets married and they have like a little minute long spinoff thing. Oh, like a three episode. Yeah, I don't think this is like this is like this is like a real show. So I ain't worried about it. But also it's never been about the Lisa Vanderpump world. I mean, that's a little part of it. But it's always about whatever crazy people you cast. And I don't think this is that. I think this is following Lisa around picking out, you know, acting like she's designing the hotel. Yeah, you know, going places with Nicolane and being like, oh, Ben, or not Ben, sorry, that's my, that's my.

I'll be so honored. Ken, sit on this bed and see if it's comfortable. I'll sit with you. Who, it's the first time I've done this with Ken when it's not his birthday, Katie. That'll be much of that, I think. So the next one is very controversial, which is the secret lies Texas wives. And I'm sorry, but they're not saying and here. Even in this, even in this. They're saying secrets, comma, lies, comma, Texas wives, comma. Oh, you know, you're right. It's very important.

So maybe that was a typo. Maybe that was a typo earlier in the, in the article, and I fault deadline for not raising their standards with their... Truly, or not lowering them enough to understand a true Bravo title. So secrets, lies, Texas wives. And then it says in parentheses, WT, which means white, right?

And, I don't know. I think it does. And I don't know if that was a typo. I think the WG stands for what the. What the? Because apparently, and this is just a rumor, this is not announced by Bravo, but apparently they cast Aaron Grease in this.

Did you hear that? No. They wouldn't have done that. I heard on Reddit, my news source, that Aaron Grease is rumored to be in this. She better not be. Because for those of you who don't know who that is, she was one of the most racist people to ever be on Big Brother. And that's saying something for Big Brother.

Okay. That's actually quite a contest. And it got so bad that they had to change a bunch of rules in the way that they did stuff. So, but this place is working title, by the way. I know. But it's fun of it's pretend it's white. I also think it could stand for secret lives, secrets, lies, Texas wives, parentheses. Well, then.

Well, then. So in the heart of Texas Hill Country is the picture perfect town of Bernie. Oh, God. Where wealth, beauty, faith, and family reigns supreme. Centered on a tight-knit circle of glamorous women. This series follows their lives as they raise families, run ran ranches and farms and manage sparkling social calendars in a town rooted in rodeos and tradition. Behind the polished smiles and Sunday sermons, however,

there are intimate relationships and forbidden romance. is that test loyalties and marriages jeopardizing the town's pristine forbidden romances. Who's that? I hope someone is dating a cactus. I forbid you. Melbertus, I forbid you from dating that cactus.

Let's see. This is produced by Willhouse Spoke Studios. So what the fuck is that? I don't know. I'm going to look and look and see what they produce. I don't know. I what can you know as as the resident Texan of the podcast do you know what the deal is with Bernie Bernie yeah city um Bernie is a rich town and where do they make their money from they were talking about we were talking about it the other night during Canasta um that they're having a show in Bernie because it's rumored that there's a real housewives of Austin being filmed and didn't Bravo keeps denying it or they won't and so I assumed that this was it Bernie's not Austin it's a little out and I was like we're robbed if it's Bernie. But apparently the rumor is, you heard it here first, you heard it, okay, that they are filming in Austin and that they are centering it around the wife of the football coach at UT. And she's really glamorous. I looked her up. She's a beautiful black woman and she's like an influencer and looks like a model. She looks like a housewife for sure.

So apparently that's being shot, but I don't know when they're going to announce that. I hope soon because this Bernie thing hasn't been worried. Yeah, you know, I'm very intrigued by that. People are in the comments have repeatedly suggested. Is this also a reference? Is this going to be Bravo's play on hunting wives, which I still haven't seen, but that's like that show was kind of like mega real house wives, but scripted people. I think that's the pitch that's been given to me.

So maybe this is trying to cash in both on the vibe of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Hunting Wives, put it in Texas. Because didn't someone, did Andy say this? Or did someone say it recently that Bravo has tried to get Real Housewives of Chicago going, tried to get something going on in Texas again. They've been trying different cities. And they've just not been able to make the cast's work. Isn't that what Bravo says?

I feel like Andy said that recently. Maybe people in the comments can back up up. I don't know. I didn't hear that. I did read Francis, the head of Bravo, head of Chairman of Brahm. What is her? I know. I always want to call her Francis McDormand.

What is her last? name. Francis Burwick. Yes. Francis is always like, hey, Francis, hey, girl. Francis Burwick. I do always, in my mind, she's Francis McDormand. But I read an article that she did. I think it was in variety last week. And she was saying, oh, you know, the landscape has changed. And, you know, she was talking about how McBee Dynasty does so well and that they are going to start catering to that kind of crowd more. And I started cracking out because I know that's your favorite show. But I wonder, it looks like this is kind of a play in that direction. I just want to reiterate.

I am comfortable watching right wingers on reality TV. I am comfortable watching it. It's not my favorite, but I can watch the McBeas, but I'm not comfortable is watching a show that is produced like an A&E show. If it's going to be on Bravo,

it has to have Bravo standards of how it is produced and filmed. I don't want shitty music cues. I don't want shitty editing. I don't want scripted scenes where it's clear that they just told Muscles McGee to Muscles McBee to come in and

have a fight. Like they're not doing their lines well. And like Bravo shows are better than those other shows and I watch them for a reason. So like fine, give me the McB's but don't give me the A&E. Okay. Keep it simple. Don't give me the the McTLCs. Okay.

Don't give me the MCLCs or the McAenies or the McDiscovery's or the Mick History channel, which by the way has nothing to do with history, but you know, it's not. Well, neither does history, really. The McNabbity of these days. Neither do our history books growing up.

I'm like, wait a minute. That doesn't sound right. Well, let me tell you, this wheelhouse spoke studios who produces the show, it's not looking promising for you. And here's why. Here's what they produce. Buying Beverly Hills, Netflix, King of Collectibles, Love and WWE, Million Dollar Secret, Secret Chef, nothing but a good time.

got to get out hype house duck dynasty the revival assembly required and last bite hotel so these names

what is you know now I know where people are like how do you watch that show because people like they think all these shows all reality shows like this I need to know what secret chef is about I want is this like a coming out thing mom dad I know I've been telling you

I've been working on Wall Street for the past several years but I have to tell you I've perfected my flambay. I'm a secret chef. No, we thought you were just a heroin addict. Oh, the most disappointing thing we've ever seen. Well, I mean, I do know. Is that why you got that bacon tattoo for your bar mitzvah?

Ooh. Oh, darling. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crappence commercial. So here's what we've learned from people, we've said it before. What we've learned from people that we've met who work in production on the bravo.

shows, what they tell us is that Bravo notes them to death, meaning that whenever they turn in a cut of an episode, Bravo comes back with paragraphs upon paragraphs. They inspect every single thing. They're like, why is this shot here? Why is this glance here? Why is it not there? And it makes all their lives of pain the ass, which is good for us. That's actually why I sincerely believe this is why the Bravo shows are so good. And they're very, very careful about their brand and how their shows look and sound and feel. And so I kind of actually believe, even if you do have a production company, making Duck Dynasty and Secret Chef and like last bite hotel and you know incredible cockroach killers I do believe they'll still be able to do the show properly because

Bravo won't let them to do it let them do it otherwise but then the McBee dynasty comes along I'm like this is USA tone and I understand the first season was on USA but we're on Bravo now and I'm like no it's gonna lower their scene it was on peacock well either way so I think that because it was on peacock it was like a different vibe and then they just transferred that vibe over kind of and they were like we don't want to change the vibe because that's what the show originally was okay you've had your practice thing i i just i know i sound like a stickler but i really do believe that bravo puts out the best reality shows you know and they and they even netflix netflix does a pretty good job and who does a pretty

good job but like you can see the way in my mind their pacing is just like different and just not as good as bravo and i just i hate seeing this network that i love just drop their standards of how to present a TV show and a narrative for something like the make be dynasty so like secret secret lies texas wives as long as you're presented to me the way i have grown accustomed i'm like kelsey please maintain the lifestyle to which i'm entitled to will be all yeah look you know we don't want to kayhitting the nuts right before it's come on because we love i'm in texas so i love some skewering of some some texas people and we loved real housewives of Dallas until it went to complete shit towards the end.

That was a good show for a long time. So we love that one. So, you know, it's not a Texas thing. It's more of a, please don't be another McBee dynasty thing. So returning series, Bravo has ordered season renewals of many beloved docu series, including Housewives of Rhode Island, the Valley Persian style, wife swap. I don't know that I need another version of that. Below deck down under, married to medicine, Southern Charm, Summerhouse,

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Top Chef, along with previously announced below deck, Real Housewives of Potomac and New York City. Jersey and Watch What Happens Live are also included. And Jeff Lewis returns to Bravo with still flipping out, premiering later in 2026. So do you think this is just because this is 2026 and maybe they'll announce more because there's a lot missing from here?

It could be. It could be. Did they say Potomac? I mean, Potomac's already filming, so they don't even need to say that. Um, but, uh, yeah, I, I, I, I think this is just, this is just it. And sometimes I'm like, are, sometimes I feel like they leave stuff off intentionally to rile people up and to create chatter about it, you know. Yeah. See if, um, yeah. They say that summer house is shaping up to be the most watched summer house they've ever had. They also said that this is, they said the current season of Top Chef is set to be its most watched since season, uh, since the 20, 21 season. which is a little surprising.

But, you know, hey, it is what it is. I mean, I don't know why I'm being negative. It's like, I really like the season of Top Chef. I thought it started off really slowly, but I'm like really into it now. I think it's fine. I'm so used to covering it. So if we're not recapping it, I don't pay attention to things the same way. You know, like I don't find it as funny if we're not talking about it.

So, I mean, it's fine. I get bored. I don't need an hour and a half of Top Chef. But I don't even an hour there. It makes me sad. I mean, the dance card is so full for us right now. And as much as we love Top Chef, like, it does sort of break my heart that we can't cover it. Just because when we do cover it, we do find comedy that's like not even there.

And then like once we sort of like find it, it's like so funny to watch it. Just like the little idiosyncrasies of just like the way people act and the way they do things and say things. And so I was sad that like it just, it just was, we just couldn't make it work this year. It just was too hard. Well, let's get on to some Bravo. headlines for the week. I think the biggest story this week has been Bethany Frankel

versus Dina's daughter, Lexi. But it's been fucking hilarious. So, Dina's daughter, Lexi. I don't know why I can't just call her Lexi. Because when I say Lexi, I think Lexi, oh, Lexi's girlfriend, Lexi or fiancee or wife, whatever.

But Lexi, so Lexi comes out with some TikTok and she's like, okay, so I have a shoe company. I send Bethany Frankel a pair of my shoes. She wears my shoes. She's photographed to my shoes. She posts the photograph of my shoes. But then she doesn't tag the shoes.

She tags another pair of shoes that look kind of like them that are an affiliate link on Amazon. So Bethany used her shoes and then publicized Amazon shoes and then got the money off the affiliate link. And she was like, you're a fucking weirdo lady. Like, who does that? So Bethany came back with a video. We're sick. All right, all right. Listen to me.

I'm so busy. Like I'm doing this in my car. All right. Like, you know, there's some influencer or whatever who has a shoe company. And like, comes after me. Like, listen, I've said it once. I've said it a million times. I'm under no obligation.

You send me shit. Like, I'm under no obligation to do anything for you. Okay? That's not how this works. And you want to, you know, you could have played the long game. You're playing the short game right now. You want to have like a little attention and have this little video and get mad at me. Fine.

But you could have played the long game. You know, because I push. product. I'm a product pusher. All right. You should ask Melissa Gorga about her cookies. Like how many cookies did I push? All right? All right? Like ask Harry Hamlin about his ragu or whatever. Like how much of that did I push?

All right. I'm a pusher. I'm a pusher. So you know what? You're welcome. You're welcome. And then she hangs up. It's like, oh, damn, defensive. Bethany, that's weird behavior. To post an Amazon. Bethany. Someone else's shoe. You fucking weirdo. She's correct. You're a weirdo.

I feel like It is a really weird thing And Bethany did actually post a video Where she was wearing the shoe And she credited the shoe This went up I think I don't know

She posted something where she was like Okay well apparently I didn't This is two days ago She apparently I didn't post this fast enough Okay because if I posted up soon You would have gotten the reference to it I don't know if she actually linked to the other thing But when she said okay

You're playing the short game Congratulations you've been to bridge Well like is Bethany's best best example of success is that she sold more sprinkle cookies for Melissa Gorga. I mean, Bethany, you're better than that. I mean, I know you are, like, you are still Bethany. You get, like, why is that where you start with? Like, the sprinkle cookies, but also, like, her lecturing about how to do business and, like, why you're, like, don't, don't play the short game. You got to play the long game. The long game,

what happened to your Mark Burnett contract? That fizzled up. That doesn't sound like there was some long game moves made there, huh? You know, everything, everything with her has been short game. Talk show, Shark Tank, talk, like reality show, all these things. Short game, short game, short game, okay? And like, reality reckoning. Reality reckoning is the epitome of the short game. You're like, wait a second.

Bravo didn't go for my pitch. Okay, I'm coming for Bravo. I'm doing the reality reckoning. I'm going to take them all down. Where's that now? Okay. Hey, the short game is, short game is, you're playing the long game on the short game. That's what you're doing.

Yeah, it was a mess, but it was funny watching, watching people just get so pissed off at Bethany. And then just watching Bethany get so ruffled was really funny. Like, how dare you? You come after me? You don't come after me. Who are you? You're some influencer. Get over yourself.

I'm a push you. You don't come after me. You could play the long game. You could have won. You could add successful shoes if you were nice to me. You're like, oh, okay, Bethany, okay. I'm going to buy some Lexi's shoes. Damn.

She played the Lexi played the smart game. Like this was Lexi learned because you know what? No one would have given a shit about Lexi's shoes. No one would have known about them. Bethany would have worn them. There would have been a link. There would have been an uptick in sales. I would have gone back.

People would have been like, oh, Lexi sells shoes. That's nice. Now it's been in the news cycle. And Bethany keeps on keeping it in the new cycle. And I guarantee you the next video that she puts out will be like, you're welcome. You're welcome. Because guess what? I'm keeping it in the news cycle.

So you're getting the sales? That's because of me. So congratulations. Congratulations. You did it. So, you know, I expect a free pair of shoes again a second time around because I kept you in the news cycle. Yeah, send me another pair. So Spence T. Graham on Instagram says it's contradictory.

I'm under no obligation to tag you. Then you should have played the long game because I would have tagged you. Yep. We're pretty much. What a not case. Does Bethany not remember selling her like whole grain cookies in Whole Foods? Does she not remember how hard that was for her and how she was, we saw her with her little table. We saw her on the apprentice.

You want to talk about a long game? My brain is the long game. I've seen your entire reality TV career. We know where you started, ma'am. Okay? Yeah. And you're going to start. As someone here is trying to get their shit out and you put it on and you wear it and you don't even give them credit,

you give credit to something else that way you can get your money for it. Would the Bethany who sold her bird feed cookies in Whole Foods be saying the same thing to someone who did that to her? I don't think so. I don't think she would have appreciated this. Yeah, well, it's Bethany. And I was thinking while I was putting the headline up there, that it's amazing how crazy Bethany can make us, but she's still in like every other crappy hour, at least.

I mean, she really knows how to keep herself in the news constantly. She really does. She, I guarantee she sends, oh, I'm sorry. I guarantee she sends like media blasts to page six every single day. And page six is like, we got nothing going on, but in the Bethany story, I guarantee that's what it is. And honestly, the crazy part is I'm ranting about Bethany, but I was thinking this morning, I was like,

she is such a fucking crazy person. God, I want her back. Bring her home. Bring her home. I was like, come back, Bethany. I'm not even joking. There are other people who get the PR person, and they're constantly blasting PR out, and it's just so annoying. And one example is Aaron from Real Housewives of New York. I mean, her PR person is over time, and it's like you're reading something every day in the Bravo news links about what Aaron's doing. It's like Aaron, you know, bought a new leather jacket today. Aaron's tequila's really taken over her household or whatever. And I'm always thinking, wow,

what a good PR person. Because who cares about Aaron? You know, this is obviously somebody just, you know, working for her plastering the stuff everywhere. But then you have people like Bethany, and they're plastered everywhere, but at least they're funny. You know, I laugh. Did you see the one this week where she was on a red carpet somewhere and she was with her new guy? And someone, someone said something like and who do I have the pleasure to who do I I might be getting confused with Vanderpump because they both had this moment in the past couple of weeks but some kid was like so who do I have the pleasure of speaking to she's like you don't know me what whatever if you don't know me you better ask around and then she like kind of fell and she stumbled away I didn't see that

but I saw the Vanderpump the Vanderpump video of that which is very funny yeah she's like you don't know who I am then you better ask somebody because I've started every restaurant in this town. I've got millions of TV shows. You know, whatever. It was pretty funny too, but anyhow, she's all over, but at least they make me laugh every time. I'm a pusher.

I'm a pusher. I'm a pusher. Benji Fijil in the comment says, Ben Mandelker is cringe. Where have you been? Like, hello? That's my brand. Kay Byrne says, did anyone see Luann's IG post basically making

fun of Bethany? And someone commented, jealous and the wen said jealous of what her ugly chicken salad classic yeah so it's good to see that bethany is still in like like one stupid controversy after another like it's it's wild the sort of you know one moment she truly is in a chicken salad fight now she is in a free shoe fight i mean it's it's really sad where she's falling to. And this is so fun for us. I know it is so fun. It is so fun.

But she did used to have a show on HBO where she would be like, okay, everyone, this is how you do business. Okay, here's how you be a mogul. And now she's out here getting into fights with like. Well, that show is crazy. Wasn't the whole point of that show? Like the whole prize for the show was to be Bethany's intern. Isn't that what it was?

Yeah. It's like, be my intern. She's like, you want to yell? Oh, yeah. Then why should you be here? I went to yell. why are you trying to be Bethany Frankl's intern in this rented mansion? It was so weird.

Yeah. And they're all standing out there in the cold and they were shivering. And then she comes out on the balcony. And she's like, okay, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi. Guess what? People are I going to be my aunt. Don't cry for me. I'm a pusher.

All right. All right, that's it. I don't want to sing the rest of the song. I'm under no obligation to hire any of you. Okay, bye. I've tagged none of you in this post. Here comes one right now. Okay, so Real Housewives of Rhode Island is actually getting a lot of news, blurby, headline thingies lately.

I've been watching interviews with Rosie and Kelsey where they're dissing each other. And Rosie is saying Kelsey never even lived in that. She hasn't lived in that mansion for two years. She broke up with the boyfriend two years ago. She's been dating this other guy. She's faking this whole storyline for the show. and then Kelsey really isn't saying anything that coherent, but it's pretty funny watching them diss each other in interviews.

Dino was, Dino who is Kelsey's ex, who's inexplicably rich, and I think the son of that famous judge, that TV judge. No, no, the ex. Kelsey's ex is the son of the judge. Yeah, oh, so this is Kelsey's other ex, because Kelsey did date Dino, right? Well, she, like, hooked up with him, and then he's doctor. Right. So this isn't the mansion X.

This is, he's not the son of the judge. This is the one that she hooked up with before Liz hooked up with. Okay, you're right. Yeah, this is Liz's best friend, Dino. Dino is facing life in prison after he's charged with dealing cocaine. My question is, was he dealing it on a fishing boat? Three weeks out for her. Does he know where Carol's husband is from Tiger King?

Wow. This is crazy. So, Dino, Gwledi, you a meddy. Okay, this guy, he's like, I fucking the camera in his photos. He's like, I'm threatening you, but I'm also going to make love with you. He's like, you want to go to the water wall? You want to go to the seawall? Sea wall. I'm going. So, wow. So, yeah. he's 48 wait this guy's only one year older than me get out um i'm just like shocked by everything candy burris just turned 50 i think this this picture everybody looking at me he's like oh yeah could should i murder you have sex with you at the seawall hmm he's actually in the left photo he's definitely doing the countess the land mugshot face whoa whoa breaking news breaking news breaking news. Carrie Shutt says they found that Tiger King guy. He was

alive. What? What? Is that true? Did Bethany find him? Do we not know whose Bethany didn't tag him? That forced me into a Tom Colicchio response. What? He's alive? Is he a miscologist? Looks like this guy has been dead

for 20 years and came back to life. It's still doing more. No, my son. Yeah, so, Dino, big shocker to everybody who's been following Rhode Island. I don't think any one of us would have guessed that he was a Coke dealer. From an unknown Caribbean island smuggling it in. Yeah, that. And then all of a sudden, they're on TV and they get rid of the boat, the gypsy.

Something is like, you know what? Now that we got a lot of cameras around us, we decided to get rid of our boat. I don't know why. Exactly. Well, that's what was happening when they were getting rid of that boat so quickly. I was like, what's, this is fishy that suddenly she's like, yeah, overnight. We just have to get rid of the boat. I don't know.

He told me what. gotta pack it up. Like, you sure are even supposed to be filming scenes on here? Because I think this is about to be impounded. I know. But you know what, though? You know what, though? So, if this turns into like a real, like a real criminal thing,

what I'd like about it is the idea that, like, maybe Alicia gets caught up into it by accident. Like Alicia walks in on something and now the mob is after her, but so are the feds and she's just on the run. Because she's the sort of type that would be. in like an 80s comedy movie. You know, the 80s comedy movie where, like, someone's dating a guy, and then she walks in on the guy, and the guy's actually like a mobster.

And now she's, like, runs off with the bag. And then all the cops are following her because she's got the bag. The mob's going after her, and she's got to figure it out. I feel like that would be Alicia. She's like, I got to drive out of here. But she has to, like, drive over bridges, and she's really scared. Like, oh, my God, I got to drive over the bridge. And the car's going all over the lanes.

And everyone's laughing in the theater. Yeah. Is that just me? A crack up. They're going on. That's her tagline. I need a crack up. I'm too old for this cracker.

She's with a parrot that's going, probably want a cracker, and then they fight over the crackers while they're on the run of the law. It's great. Make it. So in more Real House Rise of Rhode Island news, Alicia shares cryptic posts about her spouse taking money without asking.

Oh, okay. Well, he's not her spouse, but a spouse. So let's see, this is from reality blurb. The last one was page six. So thanks to everybody we're stealing this show from. Before quickly deleting her cryptic messages, okay, let's just go over the messages. She wrote, asking for a friend. Do you think it's okay if your spouse takes your buddy and pays bills without you and you'd

ever see your buddy or you check? And then in another message says, ask him for a friend. Do you think it's normal for someone to put your face and use your image and story for a business that you don't see a dollar from? You think that's okay? Ask him from a friend. Are you supposed to say the asking for a friend at the first part or is supposed to end with asking for a friend? Just wondering.

Yikes. So it's not going very well for her and her guy. Wow. He takes her money and like her housewives money and just puts it into the till and doesn't let her control over the accounts. That's nuts. Yeah. You know, you got to be careful. You got to be, you know, because, you know, if like she's now got a taste of fame. She's got a taste of empowerment. She's got people telling her you don't actually have to live like this. and Billy, Billy had a sweet thing going on. And now suddenly she's woken up. And she's like, wait a second. All those crackers?

I've been paying for them all this time. I thought Billy was paying for them. He's made me pay for them. She's woken up. And so now, watch it. Your days are numbered, Billy.

Pizza mama's coming for you. Yeah. One of the comments on Twitter was saying, she lives in a common law marriage state. They've been together 10 years, even if she leaves, she still gets half. And this is what I find interesting because,

you know, people are like, well, why won't she, why is she not wanting to marry him? She says she doesn't want to marry him because he wants her to sign a pre-nup that says she'll get nothing, basically. And she's like, that doesn't seem fair. And I was pointing out recently that if they've been together long enough, she'll get half if she doesn't marry him, right, because it's common law. So I guess that's interesting too, because Kelsey was saying, you know, well, I'm entitled to half of this boyfriend stuff, even though I've never been married to him. So I don't know why it's so weird that I'm letting him pay

from my apartment and I was saying, I don't know that you are entitled, but I guess that's true if it's a common loss date and maybe you are. Yeah. Although it was less than 10 years, I think, that Kelsey was there. I think the boyfriend went to the nine year mark and was like, see ya. Boyfriend's like, yeah, by like an old queen in a bar told me that they were broken up before the season even began, that he was kind enough, quote unquote, quote unquote, kind enough to let her film the first part of the season, pretending like they were still together. And so maybe that was like right before the 10-year mark or something like that.

I don't know. Who knows? Yeah. Who knows about these old queens? See the rumors. Well, yeah, that's what Rosie's has been saying all over the place. So let's see. What else?

Brian Pontorelli. That's the cheater, melty-faced cheater of Rhode Island. His rumored mistress, Beth Walker, sues him following his breach of contract lawsuit, accuses Rula of making disparaging remarks on watch what happens live. Ma'am, if you are a mistress and you are walking around flaunting your fucking someone's husband all over the place, you get whatever disparaging remarks are thrown your way. I'm so sorry, but you're crazy. Yeah. Now, Sue Bryan is great though. But, but also like this lady is so

thirsty. She doesn't even get a photo in this reality blurb article. That's the saddest part. Good for that. I still don't even know what this lady looks like. That's a the crazy. I don't know. She's trying so hard. She's trying so hard to get on our radars. You know what she needs to do? She's a happy hour at Applebees. She's the human equivalent of a happy hour at Applebees.

Just think about that. Yeah. No, Brian, the more I look at him, I've always felt like Brian looked like a Capoebaura, but now that I look at him, he sort of has that like Walls and Gromit look as well. It's like a Wallace and Gromit take on a Capoebaura. Does that make sense? Yeah, it does, actually. He's wearing a T-shirt in this.

In this picture with, here, let me show people this picture because it's hilarious. He's wearing a t-shirt that has a crown and it has R&R backwards with the diamond in the middle. And it says, real by ruler. Real by Rula. Isn't she, doesn't she do like mortgages or something? Like, yeah, he has a, congratulations. You got a good interest rate. You get a T-shirt.

It's called R&R real by Rula. It's a real interest rate. That's what it means. Well, don't worry, guys. I know you guys are worried. about Brian being evil, but do not worry he's wearing a giant crucifix. So he's a good person. Don't worry about it, guys.

Thank God. I just want to show, here's a picture of Brian and I really feel like this is. This is who he is. Actually, it's disrespectful to Capyboros. I was trying to zoom in, but it actually somehow made it worse. I will say that Brian does have very nice forehead skin. Look at that. that man has been through a bowling ball buffer he's been through it and it looks great i'm

like i should i should have skin like this you know i'll give him why does his blazer look like the stage or the mermaid number and little mermaids when all the sisters sing a song in the beginning they i feel like they're all going to appear on his chest and do like some busby berkeley mermaid dancing um so yeah brian deserves what he gets um i think but the this lady being like, rule of it's meeting me. I watch what happens. Yeah. You think? Fucking fucking my husband. Um, so what else here? Any of these you want to go for? Yeah. The other thing that people were talking a lot about is that Danielle from Summerhouse and now in the city is pregnant with Owen's baby. Well, it's really her baby. It was really their baby. But they are pregnant. So, uh, everyone, everyone was very, you know, congratulatory to them.

So that's the big news on that front. I don't know if there was any major, was there any major, I mean, the other major news on the, on the whole, you know, West and, what's it called? Amanda Sierra thing. There was just more Jen Fester stuff. Jen Foster was on Jeff Lewis and, of course, was denying everything like, wow. Like I can't, you know, Michael Beck was saying, you should reach out to her. You should.

And she's like, I don't have a number. I, well, what am I supposed to do? I don't have a number. I'm still just so amused that Jen Fessler got dragged into this thing. She was just getting so pissed. I'm still sick of everybody talking about it all the time. I didn't do anything.

I didn't do anything with this girl. Why should I? She's getting so defensive. And Becky was just like, you know, just speaking for the people, Jen. Maybe you should make an effort to calm this down and not threaten to sue people.

She's like, whatever. So, yeah, I think it's pretty funny too. I don't know why she's getting so offended. I think that people, I mean, I get that she's married and blah, blah, But her husband doesn't really care.

I think that people online are just really mean. They're like, you've slept with that old lady and stuff like that. Listen, old people are allowed to fuck too, you guys. Geez. I mean, Jen Fessler has never had this much attention in pop culture. Like, people are making montages. They are pulling footage. They're doing all this stuff.

I mean, the woman has never been like in such a white hot moment. It's crazy. I feel like she, I think on some level she's actually really enjoying it. I think she has to pretend to be, like, offended and horrified because she's in this marriage with Jeff Fessler. But I think deep down, she's like, suck it, Teresa. Look who's in the headlines now, ladies, the friend of, the friend of mid-bigtime. You think I stopped at James Gandalfini? Well, I didn't.

I still got it, baby. Yeah. But also to have your big, like, sex story come out. like, oh, Jen Fessler had sex with West, the same week that West's weiner picks came out. And everybody was like, oh, that's the grossest weaner I've ever seen. It's like, can you, can you let me have my moment? You know what I mean? Can we save the West's penis is gross for like another week when I'm not, you know,

trying to celebrate my sexuality nationally? I mean, come on. Seriously. There was also a story that I really enjoyed. And I don't know what the follow up has been because I saw the video. But is that P.K. P.K. involved in a little bit of a hit and. run a little fender bender um he basically backed up his car into someone else's car blatantly hit it

and then drove off yeah it was a total asshole about it of course he's like well i thought it was like the range rover trying to tell me that i thought it was the auto brakes on the range rover i please i barely hit your car what do you want for me sorry yeah fix the car fix the car he said this is I genuinely thought the new range rover had automatically braked for me. It wasn't until I got home but it was the tautiest mark on my car that I realized I had very gently nudged the neighbor's bumper. I went over, apologize and offered to pay entirely my fault, although in fairness trying to reverse while

subconsciously searching for paparazzi hiding in bushes is probably not recommended by Land Rover. Okay, so in this he's like, barely, barely bumped you, you're a worse, and I have paparazzi, so suck my dick. Yeah. Um, also it's not our fault and not the paparazzi's fault that, that you're like looking around in bushes. Okay, sir, safety first. Safety first. You should be so lucky that a paparazzo wants to take a photo of you.

Okay. Yeah. And speaking of this classy couple, Der Reit, um, is in trouble because apparently she is showing up late for book signings. Huge shock there. huge shock there. DeRite is not showing up to Barnes & Noble on time. Chronically late, Dorit Kemsley garnered mixed reviews for book tour sightings being held on

to read standard time. Yeah, that's no good. That's no good. You have to show up on time for the people. You're not Madonna, Derich. Okay. Like, people don't want to actually read your book. They just want to say, they just want to have it and then laugh that they got it.

So don't make them wait. I've got news. Doreet is going to be in New York for a book signing. At the same time, we're going to be there for a cabaret. Should we ask her to do a number? Yes, we should. And then she'll show up late and we'll be embarrassed. She'll be in an entirely different cabaret.

She'll be in someone else's show. She'll just show up at cats. Guys, I'm here to do my number. Yeah, that's crazy. I feel like Derrida is in no place to be showing up late to her book signings. Okay. Like, I don't, I don't think people are really clamoring to read about, read Unburdened personally. Yeah.

You know, I thought, listen, I really enjoyed Derreet this season. I really, really did. But, like, you got to show up on time. Well, Derrete's people reached out to us and said, hey, you know, we're promoting Derrete's book. Would you guys like a copy of the book? And I was like, fuck, yes, we want a copy of the book. Here's our addresses. and we never got the book.

And I was like, this is so to read. We would have been reading it right now. We'd have been reading the chapter. Send it over. Yeah, we would have been, we would have been burdened with it. I'll be burdened with that. Yeah, I know. So, yeah, that's unfortunate.

Now, another thing here, I felt like there was some other really big, like Summer House story. and I just cannot remember it whatsoever. But I'm seeing this headline right here. Exclusive insider confirms if Wendy Acefo stopped filming Potomac after Giselle allegedly caught her in a lie. And I am very intrigued about what this is all about. So this article from reality blurb says

a rumor began circulating on the internet that Wendy had stopped filming because Giselle caught her in some sort of lie. And allegedly Wendy has taken a break. after Jaselle caught her in a lie. That's the quote, which we probably could have gathered from the lead up to that quote, which said the exact same thing.

And then someone else said that this insider said they felt it was stupid for Wendy to even film. And this could hurt her case. Dun, done, done, done, done. So the rumor is false. Well, this is a stupid article. Wendy, I guess, is still filming. Yeah.

But Monique Samuels has also come back and is filming again, according to this insider, which is the real takeaway here. That makes me sad. Oh, okay. Well, that's good. Well, it's time to talk to you guys, the listeners. We're going to move over to chat.

But before we ended, I just wanted to say RIP to Archie. Shannon's dog Archie has passed away, and life on that show will not be the same. Or life in regular life. God bless you, Archie. We love you, you little ball addict. Yeah, that was so sad to see. But, you know, we love Archie. and yeah love to Shannon and her family because I know the daughters came in from abroad for it and it's so sad what a sweet dog gone to see yeah little archels so if you guys want to talk and come on camera we will put the link up to come talk to us for everybody who's listening to this on audio thank you so much and we will talk to you on June 8th when we return for crappy hour bye
