What happens when there's so much that crap is Who cares what What happens Kids what happens when they're so out of rabbits It's a fruit, you're a crap It's a fruit, you're a crap Kids what happens when they're so much that's about to happen Hello and welcome to Watch Our Crappins A podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about I'm Ben Mandelker and joining me today is the one and only Ronnie Karam Hi Ronnie, how are you?

Hi. I'm great. So good to see you, my little Hanini. So good to see you too. How are you doing? Are you excited to talk about the real housewives of Atlanta season finale episode? Well, I sure am.

Yeah, so much. I'm glad it was the season finale. That. So much. So much. I'm glad it was the season finale. That's for sure. It was the long rough season, but they did it. I was real proud of our girls for getting through it, doing the whole season, not quitting in the middle. Yeah.

It was fun. I'm still in lovely Palm Springs. Beautiful. We could talk about whatever the hell we want. I was trying to figure out a way to do this podcast from the actual swimming pool floating around on the thing, but unfortunately I get too many chemical pills, so my skin is about as thin as tissue paper, and I will look like Freddie Krueger by the end of it. So we're going to settle for this couch.

I like it, you're color coordinated. So yeah, if you want to see this video, if you want to see Ronnie on his Palm Springs couch go to patreon.com slash watch or crap ins and sign up for crap ins on demand to get to watch these videos. Also, you have extra bonus episode, which will be coming out later this week. Very excited for that. Those are always so fun. And you have access to all our previous bonus episodes, which is really cool because we have like 500 of them in I think, somewhere around there. Also, next Monday, we got a crappy hour. Come join us for that on Instagram. There'll be more details as we approach that, but that's basically us chatting Bravo on Instagram. So that's cool.

So Atlanta, so some things to talk about, I feel like right before we even get to dive into it. First of all, with this finale, there was Kenya has been stirring up some drama on Twitter, et cetera, because she has a whole storyline about the Kenya Moore salon, and she has an opening for it at a big party, and it wasn't even included in the season

beyond a brief allusion to it on this episode. It's her flashback style. It was included. They went to see it being built twice. Right. She had her friend, her boring friend that didn't work out Akila. And then they showed it in the end thing. Akila did get a chiro on this week.

So I was proud of her. She's back in the fold. Yeah. but basically though, like it was a whole party, and Kenya was really upset that they didn't get, they didn't show this whole scene. They didn't, they did all this work, and it wasn't even included. I can understand her frustration, because the truth is that Kenya, this entire season, it's been her,

at her kitchen, feeding Brooklyn, for the majority of the season. And Brooklyn is very cute, but like it's getting to the point where when we get to Kenya scenes, you just know it's gonna be some dumb pattern with the kid. And like I can understand if Kenya is like, this is bullshit, people are only seeing me standing behind

a table or standing behind a kitchen island preparing food for my kid. And I'm actually doing things. I'm frustrated. She'm actually doing things. Uh, I'm frustrated. She's not doing things. She didn't build that restaurant with her or that salon with her hands. She wants, she was jealous at the finale party. She, she's mad because the Marlow party they filmed, the foster kid Friday things, they

filmed and they showed everybody going. Yeah. And she was the only one who didn't go to that. But then the only one she didn't invite to her thing was Marlow. And so now they're saying like they're trying to build up Marlow and screw me over by showing Marlow's party and then can't he's big party, but they won't show my party.

Well, first of all, you want to invite the whole cast. You were invited to the Marlow party. I'm assuming. Second of all, you haven't done shit this season. I don't want to want you wanna ask your kid what dress she thinks is cute to wear. And then you had the shittiest cast trip I think we've ever seen when you made everybody go to Alabama.

Then you did nothing to get your fucking show ready. So you were afraid of flopping terribly and canceled that and pretended you were sick and got taken to the hospital. And then you got taken to the hospital and missed another group trip on the very next group trip then wouldn't film after with anybody. You've been nothing but a pain in the ass

and if production is not wanting to show you, I don't fucking blame them. Team production on this one. Team production. Well, to me it's getting... You give nothing, this is what you get. Especially for somebody who's been fired before and then given another chance and brought back,

you really are doing nothing. You're trying to block other people from being filmed by not speaking to them, not fighting with them, not doing your thing. Nobody wants to watch that, Ken, yeah. You can go complain on Carlos King, all you want to. This is, you're a bed, enjoy lying in it. Yeah, I pretty much agree with all those points. I'm just, I think, for me,

it's not that I care about seeing this salon and it's just like more promotion for Kenya. To me, it just speaks to kind of the dysfunction of this entire season that they have these giant events that aren't even making out to air. I just, and maybe, and the reason why they're not making it to air is probably because production is mad at Kenya. And the fact that production is mad at Kenya and this is how they're waging their war if that is true. It just speaks of the entire dysfunction to show. I say, I think that Kenya won the greatest reality TV villains of all time, but she is

no longer in it. She has to go. You know, I've said in the past, I was vocal that Neenie had to go when Neenie had to go. Porsche had to go and Porsche had to go and Porsche had to go. Kenya has to go. In fact, I would say the majority of the people on this show have to go. And that includes the producers. I think the producers are doing a terrible job too.

I think it's just like, I think it's like failures on every level. Sheree suddenly has like a father who's sick and then bloop that's happening. And then like her, not even that like, she has a father who's sick. It's something like, oh, by the way, my dad died. And it's like, what? But he was sick. And I'm not saying they're like, oh, like, that has a father who's sick. It's something like, oh, by the way, my dad died. And it's like, what? But he was sick. And I'm not saying that, like, oh, like, that has to be exploited or whatever.

But it's like, where are, like, why are we getting such, like, nonsense when there's real shit happening in people's lives? You know, and why are you starting off a season with Sherein Martell at this sham of a relationship, which looks like it's gonna be so funny to watch this ridiculousness. And then we don't get any Martell.

We don't get any Sherein. It just feels like there are threads that are picked up and then just dropped. And I just like, I don't know, maybe it's Bravo's fault. Maybe it's the, the, maybe it's the Star's fault. Maybe it's the producers. The point is there's a rot in this show. And this show has been so great in the past and it's time to restore it. It's time.

This show needs its revamp. Well, Kenya was complaining today on Twitter that, oh, look at another candy thing. Great. We get to see all of Candy's businesses, her movie, her sex toys, her this, her that, not one for me. I'm like, well, don't come for Candy because she's been on your side. I think she's been nothing but helpful to you. And cantees businesses also lead to storyline. Her movie led to this whole hookup that happens that ends this whole season on a decent note. You know, the peach fuzz thing, the peach

bus thing was one of the only decent fights in the whole show where they brought the Victoria back to have that fight. That was pretty good. I mean, at least her things lead to something, Kenya. You just expect you're just like a Costco tray at sample, you're like a sample tray at Costco that you just want everyone to sit there and film. It's not all about kissing your ass while you do nothing. You've done fucking me low nothing this season.

I'm at your own fucking fault. Get it together. Like instead of rallying around Kenya, everybody needs to tell her to turn the finger pointing the other way and blame her for wasting our fucking time because she wasted a lot of footage it could have been decent. Had she engaged with anybody on the show? Yeah, I agree. And then it was hilarious Sunday morning when the past showed up on Peacock. It's like, of course it showed up.

We should have anticipated it would show up on Peacock on Atlanta finale day. And of course, this was all a corporate synergistic ploy drives interest to Peacock, and then Peacock drives interest to the finale. Of course, we should have seen it coming. It made me kind of annoyed, then it also made me kind of the finale, of course. We should have seen it coming. It made me kind of annoyed, then it also made me kind of laugh, like, of course.

So that being said, I started watching the pass. I got through the first 10 minutes, I wanted to watch more, but I had a very busy day on Sunday, and so I had to put it on pause, and I was planning to circle back to it at the end of the night when I was done taking notes, and then when I was done taking notes, New York and Atlanta kind of like drained me. And so I just went to sleep and woke up this morning in podcasts.

And so I feel really bad that I've not watched more than 10 minutes of this shit show. But the 10 minutes that I watched the past were so hilariously terrible, like amazingly terrible that I am 100% going to go and finish watching this this dreadful dreadful hate watch It was terrible so I'm halfway through so I haven't seen the whole thing either But I made it further than you first it starts with you will never believe who's making this film Wait first it says like Spielberg taught it's called like my mom. I love my It's called like my mom. I love my mom productions. Yeah, some like that the share like Sharon Bore and productions or something and it's a logo for that and under that it says I have the best god damn son in the world and

then another Made by a producer thing comes up and it's the candy coated productions logo and then another one comes off and it says Todd Tucker logo. And then another one comes off and it says Todd Tucker productions. Yeah. And then and then the first title to come up is the Todd Tucker productions and Candy Burris Tucker presents. And then it comes up a film by Todd Tucker. It does the candy and tots. I'm like, you guys, we fucking know, okay, stop. This is not so we know that you literally filmed this movie with your own two hands to put your name over every fucking second of it. And to make it like it's five of your production companies

making it, give me a fucking break, you two. And, you know, yes, there is a base level of pride that you should have, that you made something, you generated some, you made a movie, that doesn't accomplishment, no matter what type of movie it is, it's very exciting. I'm excited for you guys, but let's also not act like you just release the crying game

or something like that. Okay, this is not a prestige picture. Okay, this is garbage. I'm sorry, it was like I was, I could already tell this was gonna be like a 90 minute version of the MTV show Undressed. It was just so, it was so janky. And I think I said in a recent recap that way they were shooting

the film reminded me of when I was in ninth grade and I had a camcorder and make little movies in my house. And I just shoot my house from different angles and make it seem like those different locations. And then actually seeing it in execution, it really did look like that, especially because it's like, you don't realize how much you know Candy's house until you see it as the backdrop in a movie

and you're like, wait a second, this is Candy's dining room. I cannot be taken out of this. It's also really funny to me that it's all shot from below. It's weird. It's like some really sort of shooting it. And it's like was Todd literally holding the camera. Was he the cameraman, too?

Because it's from down here. It's like whoever the camera person was did not have the camera on a mount. And or maybe it was but it was just like up to the height that Todd could see. I mean, I don't even know, but it was all shot from below. And then when someone to tall is in the frame, you don't see the person in the frame. They literally have to scratch down together in the frame. There's one point where Drew and her husband, Drew plays the wife and some other guy plays her husband and they have them sitting at dinner together and the camera is pulled back here.

They have a candle that's covering half of Drew's face. The staging is so fucked up. You don't notice that there's a candle in front of Drew's face and then Drew's like pretending to eat or maybe really eating. I don't know. But there's a lot of mouth sounds in this movie, which I hate. Drew's eating. She's like, mm-hmm. Well, you know, I'm working very hard on this project, honey. And then her mom at some point is helping her make chili and mom's eyes on that part. Let me taste the chili, honey. You can't make chili as good as I can.

It was making me fucking crazy. I'm like, you guys can pretend. Stop fucking smacking your mouth. Yeah, and on top of that, everything in shot with a medium, it's not a close up, it's not a wide shot, it's just a medium shot. It's like a little, it's like medium plus, it's like a little close, and the staging is weird.

They'll be like two people, and they'll be like talking and they'll be sort of in the middle or to the right on the screen and there's all this negative space behind their heads. And then they'll be in that scene with a chili at one point. So it's Drew and like Drew's character and her mom and then the husband who by the way the actor literally looks like Ralph, which is hilarious. So he's in there and at one point they're talking and Drew is like cheated away from the camera, talking to him. I'm like, well, what is happening here?

And then they start the issue is that, um, we find out in that scene is that the Ralph type character, he works in real estate and in the previous scene where I guess I don't know enough about the movie. It seemed like he was with his mistress at a jewelry shop. He is like, I'm going to buy this her partner. Like later we find out that's her partner. That's what I think. That's why I don't know because in that scene it's alluded to that it seems like this woman is like his mistress, like his girlfriend and then I don't know. But he gets taken off

of this like real estate deal. It turns out it's Drew's mom who has taken her off and him off the this thing. And so then he is like in the scene with Drew and Drew's mom and they're talking about real estate and the scene goes on for like 10 minutes and then I think in an attempt to create like realism, they start talking about all the nitty gritty

about real estate. Like, why is it all the same? It's all going. It's all like weird. They just keep saying weird real estatey things that just don't sound right. Like, you'll be going, but what are you talking about? Why would you take me off of that deal? I have full cash in his bank account and I checked his cash and she's like well you didn't do the paperwork He's like I did I saw the bank account with a cash and she says well his wife who just filed for divorce

Yesterday has now frozen his bank accounts which you would have known about had you done your homework And homework is that what he hired a P? He had to go follow around the wife to find out if the wife was gonna leave him. Like, what are you guys talking about? Yeah, and they start like talking about this crazy backstory about someone who's, was buying a house as going, as like trying so hard to do something and going on and on about this real estate deal.

And I'm like, are we gonna get into the nitty gritty of like, and you didn't sign the docuSign. I says an email and you did not confirm. And that's not even your signature. That was part of it, wasn't it? It was like he didn't even do some, he didn't do some kind of paperwork. But then she leaves and he's like,

well, she doesn't know that I found out that he has an offshore account. I was like, well, how did you find that out? You're a real estate agent, you're like, how would you, why do you know that? And why wouldn't you find that out? You're a real estate agent. You're like, why would you know that? And why wouldn't you bring it up? They have another scene where the plot comes in, where the past idea comes in, and it's all the guys golfing.

The guys stand in a straight line, literally in a straight line, and talk at the camera. They don't even turn towards each other while they're talking. They don't make a semi-circle while they're talking. They stand in a straight line and speak, like kind of tilt their heads at each other while they're talking to the camera. Is possibly the worst thing I cannot with this? Well, I get it. Like, people have time to learn, you know, it's not that you'll always be a terrible fucking filmmaker. But did you even think of anything beyond just spending candy's money

because you don't feel good enough having your own thing? You wouldn't even take a film class? Like did you even think to take a basic 101 level film class because this was embarrassing. And the whole character of the mom is so obviously based on his problems with mama Joyce. And the way that he phrases it in the movie is that Kathy is just some trust-fun kid.

And she doesn't even, though she does work hard, she doesn't have to work hard, so nobody really gets it. And Todd has to take shit from her mom, but he really shouldn't have to take shit from her mom. And it's really somehow, everybody else's fault that this guy has no success at his age. It's the mom's fault for holding him back. It's not his fault for ever doing something on his own.

Never fucking earned something on his own. It's still somehow blamed on the mother-in-law who hasn't given him what he deserves yet. I mean, it's really sad to watch. And it's like, you see it in action in this film where he just wants to take the money to put Todd Tucker on the beginning of a film, but he can't even go to a fucking film school for a six weeks course. You know what I mean? I was just embarrassing.

We're just like, reeling it. Like just buy a book. And then we also have to talk about Drew's performance because Drew, Drew does have legitimate credits as an actress. So I know she is a legitimate actress, but I have to say, it now makes me realize watching Real Housewives of Atlanta that so many things that she does on that show are sincere because we've seen now what she's like

when she acts and she's not great. She's not great, but I also blame the direction because I feel like Todd did something like this. Todd probably said to them like, hey, hey, just so you know, this isn't theater. You don't have to project. So then they became nervous about over projecting, because every scene with Drew, she is like mumbling quietly. She's like, she really does.

Oh, I love having, I love doing interior design. And then she overacts, whenever she gets like a text message at one point and she has the biggest over reaction, she goes, like she's surprised, she got the text like, oh, oh, it's from my husband. It was amazing.

Yeah, it was pretty bad. But I mean, I'm enjoying it. I had just taken an ambience, so I felt like dream of it all, but I'm gonna finish the rest of it tonight. Yeah. But where there's a twist ending. Yeah, I know.

So I haven't read any of the comments. So I don't know what everyone else is thinking about it, but I thought yikes. I wasn't expecting it to be great, but yikes taught, like filming from below and then having a candle covering those face and having all the smack and make mouth noises into the camera. I have to say it was pretty, Andrew's acting was pretty bad.

I can see why she doesn't work that much. Sorry. I feel like at the end of the day, it's also smart because basically a whole bunch of people probably watch this movie. More people watch it than probably it would have gotten an audience for. It was put very high profile on peacock and we all were curious. And people are going to watch it. People are going to hate watch it. It's going to do very well.

So, you know, but I give I credit candy for that. I don't credit Todd. I credit Todd for saying he wanted to make a movie and I credit candy. I feel like candy is the one who's like, okay, I'm gonna prove this because I know we could do some synergy with Peacock, you know? We're see-dead, yeah. I have no evidence for this,

but we have to know all the big ideas come from candy and all the shitty movies that are like, those come from Todd because he probably wanted to sell it to an actual distributor, you know, he probably wanted to sell it to an actual distributor, you know, like he probably wanted to sell it to Paramount and get like a get it into theaters for Nicole Kibman to watch it, you know Yeah, well, I was thinking that's what it was gonna be. Aren't you?

No, I it was exactly the way I thought it would be oh In terms of the quality of the movie movie and then you'd be like what was the box office? You know, we'd have all that, but it was the straight, you know, which a lot of things just release on peacock now. That's not that abnormal, but I guess I should have expected it. So anyway, the other thing that they're doing wrong again, it's like you guys Vanderpump rules, that was great. Someone cheated, and they got found out at the end, then you had to pick up production. It doesn't mean it's going to work for every single show. No, it doesn't work for this show. I'm sorry. It's just an obvious ploy to copy Vanderpump rules. Kyle Richards does it in the next season

of Beverly Hills. We already know that season sucks because they had to resort to this neutral of like, we didn't find out that cows Accused of being a part-time lesbian until the show stopped So now we have to pick up filming for two weeks and they have nothing to pick up filming for it was just so Sat so by the way I love that they had to pick up filming after two weeks and still didn't put Kenya more haircare in there I know yeah, this was, okay, this episode did not need to be super sized because again, there was like 10 minutes of people walking into this party. And then we have, when we

get to the Drew Sador apart, it just goes and goes and they are, they are, there is some like, like the Courtney thing. We're going to get to all of this. Obviously, there's some funny stuff in there, but they elongate that too. It's like Drew is coming in for her interview and now Drew is in makeup and now Drew is tortured and now Drew has dots all over her face and she's tortured and now she's saying hi to Shiree and now she's tortured again. I'm like, this, two minutes.

This whole thing needed two minutes. Drew says her piece, Ralph says his piece. We get to the scandalist stuff. We get to the hot mic. The fact that they had, they were drawing this out because there was nothing here. There was nothing like beyond, like, mildly interesting. You know, I should say it was interesting.

It was fun to watch. It was funny to watch. But they drew it out as if this was a scandal that had captivated America and I'm sorry, I do not think this captivated America. We had got upstaged by Van der Frumfruels. I mean, literally. Or wait, which one, which one upstaged it?

It was higher, I think, that upstaged as well. Well, so this all broke March 1st. And I think that Van der Frumfruels, the scandal all happened like two days later, right? Like March 1st, March 1st was a Monday, I'm sorry, Wednesday. March 3rd, yeah, March 3rd was that Friday, that Friday was when it all happened, because then the fall, then March 8th was when we went to Charlotte and that was our first live show that we did after scandal all.

So they 100% got up stage by scandal all. That is hilarious. But also it's just not as big of a story. It's like, wow, your pizza shit husband was a pizza shit. Exactly. Believe it. I'm so shocked. The more scandalous stuff came out later as they needed to leak more, because nobody cared. Yeah. So then we go, then this isn't going to be like a line by line recap, because like we've already talked about Must-Fit and not really much happens. So let's just kind of go through the basics here.

Wait, you don't wanna talk about, you don't wanna talk about Shirey and Cairo and Mecca at a baby gym watching Mecca walk or crawl? No, okay. And then can you more hair care? She is doing Brooklyn's hair. Then we go see Candy and Todd get a massage because they're so nervous about the premiere.

They're talking about their premiere party. And then Sonia goes to Dr. Jackie and they're basically talking about how Marlow's coming because Sonia needed some support. And Marlow's there because Sanya needed some support. And Marlow's there for anybody in a pinch. I was like, wait till Marlow turns against you, Sanya. You're only writing hard for somebody who's proven over and over and over again

to be a complete fucking monster. So I've phone with that. Yeah, so she's getting an ultrasound and Marlow's recording it for Ross. And Sanya's basically like, look, I wanna get this ultrasound. And I wanna basically be as ridiculous with this pregnancy, like be all as excited as the first one,

because my parents fostered an environment where I was kind of the star and my sister hated that. And I mean, look at her now, look at Sherry now, living in Rokondo and not with my like Olympic quality house. So, you know, let me just not have a sherry. I, that's what I want. I just don't want to have a child that reminds me of my younger sister and all her resentments.

So Jackie tells her that she's five weeks long and Sonny is like, but I told Ducey I was five weeks, five weeks ago. I mean, what the hell? It's like I'm going backwards now. And she's like, well, I don't want to worry about your prayed, but you shouldn't be involving the kid. I mean, you're not supposed to be telling anybody till 12 weeks.

And Marlo's like, I'm glad you mentioned that, Jackie. You've told everyone too soon. And then we go, I'm very excited. I have to say, I also, I love when Jackie walked in the room. And she looks at Marlo and goes, is this your sidekick for today? Like, there was something like very dismissive. Like, I know who Jackie walked in the room and she looks at Marlow goes, is this your sidekick for today? Like there was something like very dismissive. Like I know who Marlow Hampton is. Really? This is who you brought into my office? So then we go to

Drew and Ralph. Okay. So Drew is texting Don Juan about the rat party and she has to be there at Soundcheck. I'm like, why would she have to be at Soundcheck for a rap party? Because Drew gets to promote her multiple businesses too. It's not just a rap party. It's also Drew lip-syncing to a song, which I love that she has to do Soundcheck for a song she's gonna sing to track.

But whatever. I love the fact that we can't remember why Drew needs to sing and her song is literally called, you already know, like we already know why she has to be a part of anybody who can't. We already knew this was happening. I mean, that's like the plot of the entire season. We already knew.

I know. So she's in bed and Ralph comes lumbering in and she's like, oh, I feel like I haven't talked to you or anything, he's like, I'm busy, I'm busy, you know, we're gonna grind, you know, while you're at their shooting a movie. I'm like, well, so she's not allowed to be busy too. Like, because he says it like, oh, you're shooting a movie,

like that's like, like it's some sort of like, dalliance, it's like, no, that's like literally her job and your job does not take precedence over her or you idiot. So they're just like talking about that and. You're like, you would just shoot in sex scene. That's what you were doing. And she's like, oh, so that's what's going on out of a hundred pages.

That's one little thing. And he's like, you don't knock. You act like I don't know what's going on. I know what's going on. And she's like, well, I just want you to know that. I got one hour of sleep because I got one hour of sleep and I still took JoJo to school. And he's like, I tried to help you.

And she's like, what are you talking about? You left the room. And he's like, well, I left the bedroom because it's disruptive. You know, you come in at 3.30 to go to sleep and I'm up for like two hours after that. So I had to do what I had to do. Which is just going to another room, I don't understand.

And so she's like, well, when are you going to move back? And he goes, you know, whenever we can get some stability, like, what are you talking about? The movie's over. Now all of a sudden it's about stability. So I mean, he's so full of shit at all times. And I'm like, really happy to have gaslighting full of shit Ralph back, as opposed to like the smiling, you know, everything's wonderful Ralph.

So now Drew is talking about Courtney, because Drew is really fixated on Courtney maybe calling her a bitch, which is honestly such a tenuous drama to hang so much of this finale on. Again, another issue with this season, this stupid fight of the weather or not. I season, this stupid fight that whether or not does that. I think the whole point is that she's telling Ralph,

like, oh, you're the one to be like, this is my cousin. And now her whole thing is that she's your cousin and our family. And this is who you're going to let call me a bitch. Like, I think the whole point is like, she wants him to stand up for her. And he's refusing to stand up for her.

Yeah. And I mean, I don't mind that being something, because that's about relationships. But like, a large part of this though, is about Drew being like, you called me a bitch, and you said you didn't even use the word bitch. So then, she shows Ralph the video, and he's like, man. She's like, we'll have that make you,

aren't you like, does not make you upset? And he goes, yeah, why her Kenya call you bitch? I have Marlow call you bitch. I have Marlowe call you bitch. I heard most of America call you bitch. I mean, it's not as stupid. Yeah, it's like, you're cool with all of them. And she's like, it's not about the word Ralph. You don't know her.

You don't know where you met her like yesterday. I'm telling you, this is who she is behind our back. And he goes, not behind our back. Was she offensive to me behind my back? No, it was you, this is who she is behind our back. And he goes, not behind our back. Was she offensive to me behind my back? No, it was you, you're back. Which is a shitty thing for a husband to say. Also though I love Drew being like, you just met her a few days ago.

Like you were the one who spent most of the season being like, my cousin, McCornie's family. I'm like, you met her two seconds ago and you just met her like you gave her a family bond. You know? But Ralph is shitty in this situation for being like, well, she wasn't bad to me. So I don't have a problem with her, you know? Yeah, I'm just like, well, he's basically saying fuck my feelings, you know, and he goes,

okay, so let me get this straight. So can you just call you a bitch, Marlow and Candy called you a bitch. What do you want me to do? Attack them and say my wife's not a bitch. Something's just aren't worth it. And so she just leaves the room. And she's like, God, what is with this mother fucking world? So she goes downstairs and it's a shaky cam

because they were supposed to be filming down there today. But Drew left the scene so the camera follows her down there and Allison's in the kitchen. And she's like, are you such a nasty look? By the way, Allison's in the kitchen just sees Ralph come in and give such a nasty look to Ralph. It was wonderful. And Drew's like, I'm just tired and I'll have the energy.

And remember at the retreat when Courtney said she doesn't say bitch. And Allison's like, yes, she looked me right in the face and she said she never said that word bitch. And Ralph's like, okay, so I've seen Drew call you a bitch before. Sit and happen, so what? Allison goes, let me help you, okay?

If she called her a banana and she doesn't like that, you know, then that's enough. Like, how about like that? How about that? So there's some of that bothers her, that's all you start with. She basically like, I don't care who said what, your wife is upset and you've got to fix this.

And Ralph was like, as, as, as, as, I got this, trust me, trust me, I believe, I got, I got, I got, and she's like, well, you don't have this because you just brought me into it. I'm just sitting here washing, trust me, I believe, I got, I got, and she's like, well, you don't have this because you just brought me into it. I'm just sitting here washing dishes and giving you nasty looks, which is like my favorite thing. I was so happy. God, I love doing that.

Just looking at you, walking into a room and glaring makes me so happy. And Drew's like, can we just please take off my mic? And he's like, why are you crying? And she's like, I just can't believe you. You embarrass me right now. You don't have to say anything. You know I'm tired, know, I'm working so much. And now you're showing yourself to be an asshole when we've been spending this whole season trying to make everybody think you're not

an asshole. Like, what are you doing? You know, she's another Shannon Bedore where she just wants to put this perfect thing up there. And it just never works, you know. And then Allison starts crying, of course, because she's Allison. So she's like, what is wrong with you? Just don't. What is wrong? It's like, Ralph, just go away for fuck's sake. Now look what you've done.

You know, I was like, I was having such a good day. Why would you do this? By the way, Allison is doing more on this show than I would say 90% of the cast members. So then, and Ralph was like, oh, so then we go to Shirey and she has left a fibroid clinic where something happened. We don't know what. Maybe she got a checkup, maybe she got fixed, but she's left a fibroid clinic. She's with her daughter. And then basically just like Shirey and her daughter are just

like talking about Bob and how he brought new child. And Shira essentially says like, look, I know my kids, like even if my kids knew about this girl and it seems like they did, it's not their responsibility to tell me about the about the daughter of his Bob's responsibility. Those are the kids, it shouldn't be on them.

Bob should've told me. And that's on Bob. Yeah, fuck that. I would have been pissed at the kid. It would have been like really? So you're just going to keep Bob's secrets great. Get the fuck out of my car. Like am I supposed to go buy you Wendy's now?

Get the fuck out of here. But whatever, each family is their own. So then we go to Kenya and Brooklyn and her father is there, Ronald. Yeah. And she's like, you know, Brooklyn and my dad hadn't even met until this year, two months ago. And we see the cameras rolling for that one. And I was like, do you guys not have any time

that the cameras aren't there? I like that Ken, you just called her dad but made me to shoot with them. And she's like, get out. I'll see you next season, you're fucking loser. Seriously. So then she says, tells her dad that she's thinking about growing, adding to the family,

because, and he's like, what are you talking about? You're gonna adopt a child? And she's like, no, I have embryos. And he's like, oh God. I mean, you almost died the last time. And he's, I feel like there were some subtext also of like, why are you having, trying to have more children,

why are you trying to get Mark more in mesh in this? So she's like, well, they have surrogates. And he's like, really? You think that's a good idea? He's basically, please don't do this. This is such a terrible choice. Yeah, and she says that legally, the paperwork says that she owns her embryos. so she can do that if she wants to.

And she's like, but it is scary because I don't know what his reaction will be. Could he file an injunction, make it part of the legal case? Yes. Yes. You will do all. You will do whatever it takes because the fact that this divorce has already gone on this long, he's always gonna try to, and he's like a narcissist, he's a narcissist pig, so he's always gonna try to like, draw it out and try to make it as long as possible, make it a whole thing.

I mean, by the way, we should also not forget that Mark is one of the reasons why Kenya is so terrible to watch these days because I don't feel like she can be her true self because as long as she's going through this divorce, she has to put on this facade, like she's this wonderful person who doesn't attack people or whatever. And I think that, not physically attacked, but just like, I think she is trying to put on this, like, her pageant face. And she, like, once this divorce goes through, I think we can get maybe old Kenya back, but

for right now, she's just very very controlling of her image. So then let's go to Marlowe archive. I'm like, oh my God, we haven't been to large high since I was working with Tammy. It just feels so good to be home. Oh, I left it just asked her last time. Did you see that her system's like, and Marlow she had to spend all that in all day cleaning this shit up and Marlow is like she starts talking about she's like oh so here's here are all my accomplishments I mean

archive it's amazing right now we're almost working towards having an apostrophe in there and on the head of wardrobe for Tammy Roman which is cool and I was on a set with Cynthia, and also I was featured in the magazine Simply Buckhead. I'm like, wow, really killing it. I did Simply Buckhead, darling. So then there's a knock knock and Scott Lee the fake boyfriend comes in and they do some of that. I'm not buying one second of this. So she invites him to the rat party and he agrees to go.

So then we go over to Drew Ralph and Dr. Kim. So Drew, of course, they're shooting this in some sort of a medical office building or whatever. There's some building, mind I've even been to medical, it's some office building, and they have clearly- So, production.

It's like a wee work. And the production is basically figured out a way that they can shoot this scene with a three of them, maybe after hours or something. And Drew, of course, every actress is like, I can't believe they opened up the building for us. Like, okay, you're not barbersurized, and you know, production gave $100

to the building manager and said, can we shoot in one of the offices? I know. Also, I wanted to mention one thing about Marlo that I forgot. Kenya has been on such a tear all week on social media. She posted a picture that I didn't even notice from the show, but it's when Marlo is talking to her nephews, you see behind her that there's one of those electric chairs on the stairs. Oh, yeah. I remember that that was being put there people to go up the stairs. I love those chairs. If anyone's wondering why I'm not buying this whole Scott Lee thing. Basically, we accidentally saw the Ted Turner chair. The Ted Turner lift.

So, so now Drew, she's like, she's telling Dr. Ken that every time she expresses her feelings, things go left. And Dr. Ken is like, well, you know, this has been a journey for the past two years. So tell me, you guys have come to me two times in two years. What a journey for the past two years. So tell me, Ralph. How you got to come to me two times in two years. What a journey, huh? Wow, guys. What a journey.

It's a journey. So Ralph is like, you know, I wanted to see you, Dr. Ken, because you know, we're fighting for a marriage. And, you know, I've been working on myself. Like, has it been a mutual thing where we do it together, like, go to counseling together, but I've been working on myself. Like, so I, you know, think about the changes I've been making.

I'm like, okay, Ralph, what are the changes you've been making in your non-therapy working on yourself? Okay. And so he's like, well, the other day, I left the room. That's a pretty big change. And I thought like, oh, Ralph, what a huge step. You ditched the marital bed. That's great.

That's great when gold star. Exactly. At first, I thought he meant like we're having an argument and I walked away instead of blowing up. Great. That's great when gold star. Exactly. At first I thought he meant like we're having an argument and I walked away instead of blowing up. He was talking about he moved into the guest room. He moved out. Yeah.

And the way he put it, he goes, Drew says, I feel like it's a big deal. Ralph hasn't been present for marriage counseling. And Ralph says, it hasn't been collectively between you and I, but I've been working on myself. Like, what does that mean? What does it mean? So, Drew's like, yeah, he moved out of the bedroom,

so he's very disconnected and Ken's like, one thing I've learned about the two of you is you absolutely love each other, but you are very disconnected. I have not seen the love here. Where's the love? I don't know. I don't know how Ken got that. We've seen all of the therapy sessions on this show,

so I have no idea where he got that. But, well, he needs to say that to keep his clients. So Ralph is like, well, you know what? Like me, moving out of the bedroom, is me getting into a place where I'm comfortable. And he's like, well, how does that feel Drew? And she goes, hello, but I think he's happy. And Raph goes, it's liberating.

Like, this is a great sign. That's what he always wanna hear from your spouse. I moved away from you and now I feel liberated. And Drew's like, yeah, well, it wasn't discussed with me. So it just seems kind of irresponsible. I mean, even the kids are noticing and asking why he's sleeping in the other room and he goes, that's a lie.

And she's like, no, JoJo texted me. Like, I don't have to lie, you want to use that narrative here. I think that is sleeping in the guest room. And everyone's mad that they don't get to sleep with you. And I said, it's all good, honey, I'm getting home late and he's working the morning and it'll be back to normal after the film. And he's like, yeah, but see, it wasn't a concern until you created all that, you know? It's about how you say it, you know?

She said it perfectly nicely, you know? And so Ralph's like, Dr. Kent, okay, it's about me making changes that make me feel good because I have a right to do that too. I'm getting into a place where I can be more liberated and like free and I'd be able to smell the roses, the fruits of my labor. What is he talking, the fruits of it?

What is he literally, what is he talking about that he is getting by moving to the guest room he can now smell the fruits of his labor? He's like, no idea. He makes no sense. And he's like, I haven't been able to take advantage of that. So meal leaving hasn't been because I want to leave. It's so Drew could be comfortable and I could be comfortable and it's like I haven't been able to take advantage of that so me leaving hasn't been because I want to leave it so Drew could be comfortable and I could be comfortable and It's worked out and Drew likes to heat it 82 and I like it more at 68

Oh, if only they had realized the thermostat was at the center of all their issues He's like I don't know why you're making these faces, Drew. The reality of it is, I look at the situations that have been put in place and Drew can win and get what she wants and I can win and get what I want. I don't think she's winning right now. I think that she's saying she wants to be with you and you are running away from her. Yeah, this is just, these scenes are just sad between these because this guy's obviously

just an abusive piece of shit and always has been. And so you're like run, but then you also see the reality of having all these kids and he's not gonna make a divorce easy, he's not gonna just be like, hey, let's get divorced. I'll give you half of everything continue to and I'll just keep giving you as much child support as possibly. You know, it's just depressing to watch it

because there's so much earlier. You know what I mean? Well, it's also like, say, run. Like this time we've had a chance to say run, but she's already been with this piece of shit and had children and stuff. And I think he really believes his own bullshit. So, you know, Rao, a Drew is saying that like,

Rao is, you know, avoiding and deflecting. And, you know, he had, like, the movie's over, but he still hasn't come back into the room and she's willing to turn the heat down. And Rao is like, you know what? Her best friend sleeps in separate rooms, so it's all good. Like, they've been married longer than we have, and they sleep in separate rooms and they're

living their best life. And she goes, they also filed for divorce. And he goes, who has them filed for divorce? What? Dr. Kenneth. Dr. Kenneth. Dr. Kenneth. Dr. Kenneth.

Dr. Kenneth. Dr. Kenneth. Dr. Kenneth's great conclusion that he draws from this. He's like, well, what I've observed is that, yeah, I think you guys need more counseling. Yeah, and he goes, at some point, you have to look at each other and you have to ask yourself,

do I really want to be with this person? And do I really want to be with this person? I was like, well, that's a good one. You know, also before you marry somebody, you should sleep with them in the same room and see if the temperature is okay. Yeah, for the both of you, sorry for the hiccup. But wow.

Yeah, you know, it's so funny that you say that because I'm thinking about that song, the piniacalata song, you know, you know that song. Of course. Piniacalatas, you know, it's about like? A few like Dean Yakaladas, you know, it's about like a husband and wife who are just satisfied in their marriage and then they put out a personal ad

and they answer their own personal ads without realizing it and they show up on this date to basically cheat on each other and they find it's themselves and they like rekindle and I was just thinking about that song that one of the lyrics is, I was like, you know, it's fine. It's, maybe it's fine if you don't know that your spouse doesn't like piniacaladas.

But how do you not know that your spouse likes getting caught in the rain? Like I think, like, or as there, you've got to be somewhere down that path, you have to have been in the rain at least once and been like, and your spouse says something like, you know what, I actually love the rain, you know? Like, are you just not listening?

And I kind of feel like that's what Ralph is like with the thermostat. Like, he is this sort of person to get eight years down into a marriage and never realize that Drew likes getting caught in the rain. Yeah, like, you don't know. How do you not know that it's always cold in your room? You know?

Weird. Hopefully, Candy will pay for Todd to write a song about that. Yeah. So then everybody's getting slammed up for this Prumiyipati. And Don Juan has made a walk of stars with everybody's name. 8 out of 10 of them are Todd Tucker, but Sathath accounts. So that was nice. Also hilariously, the lead actor Rob Riley from the past refuses to have his face shown on Bravo. So like

every time they showed the poster of this movie, his face is blurred out. I think that is amazing and hilarious. I love that he's too classy to be on Bravo, but he's not too classy to film a Todd Tucker movie. Okay. Okay, buddy. Yeah, exactly. So basically here we start the festival of arrivals, which I know must have triggered you.

It went on. It went on. It went on. It went on. It went on. It went on for four minutes. Four straight minutes, which is a long time. It's a long time to watch people walking in. But it was like, here comes candy. There's TI. There's Tiny. There's Kenya. There's Kenya Hogan Candy.

Now Candy Candy. It went on for four minutes. Four straight minutes, which is a long time. It's a long time to watch people walking in but it was like here comes candy there's Ti there's tiny there's Kenya there's Kenya Hagen candy now Kenya is Hagen Akila here's Akila now Akila is Hagen candy now candy is Hagen now here comes Sonia and Sonia is with Ross and Ross has got to say how to Todd and Todd saying how to Ross and Sonia says how to Kenya Sonia says how to Akila it's like we have to see every possible combination of hugs. Yeah, mother hugging. So then Courtney comes in. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, okay, now my band, well, maybe we should talk.

Cause Allison says, yeah, it is your band. And every one she's gone through, I would like to ask you a few things. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, honest, we could have gotten past it. And Courtney is like, well, I wasn't a lie in the moment. And then Courtney does, I mean Courtney is pretty good at like fully changing her story and acting like that was her story all the time. I guess gaslighting too, I guess it runs in the family because she's like, no, I said bitch, I said that bitch

with a reference. Yeah, I definitely called her a bitch. Yeah. Mm. And she was like, so to who, Sonia, she said bitch, I said that bitch in a reference. Yeah, I definitely called her a bitch. Yeah. And Drew's like, so to who, Sonia, she said, no, to you. And Drew's like, I'm Flabbergast. Did she actually admitted it? And Courtney tells us, The only reason I'm up on my diet thing is I just wanted

to shut the fuck up. Oh my. Drew's like, I was saying, who are you calling a bitch? And you never said it was actually me. And she's just don't ever call me a bitch again because I didn't deserve that. And Courtney is like, have you ever called her a bitch? And I was like, no, no, I absolutely never called her a bitch.

Not even when I completely put my life to the side for 20 years, I never called her a bitch once. Not even when I was crumbling And she'd call me up on the phone and said I need a latte right now put down your pen and whatever script You're working on for a man because I'm the star here. I never called her a bitch And Allison tells us the only reason she's accusing me of calling drew a bitch is because she called up Ralph and Ralph He's told her that I've called her a bitch before and I'm not going to give her the pleasure of admitting that I called her a bitch.

What I thought was kind of funny. So then, um, oh, and also, Ken, in the middle of this fight, they're, they're going back and forth. And Kenya just, this is the Kenya that I love. Kenya just cuts through. She, she has to walk across the room and she could walk anyway, but she decides to go right between Drew and Courtney and she cuts through, she could walk anyway, but she decides to go right but queen true and Courtney and she custardless. Oh, excuse me. These hands are a real problem because Courtney's doing her hand thing

I just love that can you just goes out of her way just to bust through this and make and just shit on Courtney and just keep on going So they're all annoyed by this stupid fight, right and Marlowe and Mannyetta come, so there's 10 more minutes of hellos and yeses and more highs. And then Marlo's like, you see how I said, hi to Kenyra, but I didn't make eye contact. That's because it would release the beast and I'm not going to do it. So then Sherei shows up so everybody says hi for another 10 minutes. And then the movie, the pass, is introduced. Yeah, so we see a trailer for the pass.

And again, the actor's face is all blurred out in it. And everyone's like, wow, that trailer was spicy. Well, this is exciting. And Todd is very proud of the fact that they just, they just wrapped filming like five days ago, and they already have a trailer ready. I'm like, why are you advertising how much of a rush shop this movie is?

This is not good marketing. I know. I'm shocked. I'm shocked that you got that incredible trailer in just a week of footage. It's probably easy because there's probably only one take for everything. So you just go through it. And Candy and Joy show our joy shows up and talks to Candy. And she's like, ah, as long as you're happy, I'm proud of you, Lani. And that's kind of the end of their non-story line.

I was like, well, we had a lot of implied storyline this year with Joyce. But I guess Joyce is just like, I'm still here to be a bitch, Candy. That's right, because Joyce was supposed to go to therapy, and they talk about it, but she's supposed to go to therapy And so I think I mentally at some point some point I was expecting we'd see Joyce and Candy and therapy together But they're like no, let's not do that Another another win for the production

And seeing that Todd wrote this movie in the five minute and in a five minute span somewhere in this season I guess it didn't go well because the whole movie is still about how mean she is to Todd. Yeah. So now Drew gets up on stage and performs, you already know which goes on for so long. It goes on long enough that they can do almost the entire cast wrap up things. So even though Candy didn't take home a Tony this year, she's not giving up on her eGOT dreams.

She and Todd are producing a revival of the Wiz and the past is completed and has found a new home. It's available to stream on peacock right now. That's literally what I'm saying. And Saraje's flashbacks was her fibroid shrinking and she's still friends with Martell and then Marlowe still was Scott Lee and she's working on getting her record expunged and then we see Kenya's Kenya more haircare opening as a flashback and it says Kenya is growing her family. Oh product. Yeah and again and through all this we keep cutting back to Drew lip-sinking terribly to her own song

She can not get her lips aligned with her own lyrics. It's I mean I should all you have to say is you already know and it's so slow you already know she's like singing Like rhubarb turquoise rhubarb turquoise or something. Yeah, I And so basically we get the after thing. Slow motion is everyone parties because literally nothing happened on this show this season. Real Housewives of Atlanta season 15 wrapped filming on January 28th. Filming resumed March 1st after Drew filed for divorce. So here's a bad sign. The first headline they threw up is from Perez Hilton.

You know, real houses of Atlanta divorce drew Sadorah files one hour before the husband does the same details here. I'm like, man, if Perez Hilton's the first thing you go to, I mean, that really just speaks to the sadness, you know? Give it like a TMZ, give like a, give anything. Oh, yeah. And then it becomes a telephone game of everybody reading it starts with Marlow. And she's like, that's our next chapter. Oh my gosh, what's your next chapter? The streets are talking. And then can you

reading it? This is sad. They showed their wedding picture. No one is surprised. They are trying so hard to seem shocked. No one is surprised. I kind of feel like at a certain point like maybe they're just maybe they're just taking footage of them reacting to scandal all. They're like, this is the closest we're going to get to some sort of emotion from this cast. Sonia and her husband are like, wow, that is so sad. And then Marlow faced someone and she's like confused because one headline says that he filed, another headline says she filed and she's like,

this is like Michael and William playing Mario Kart. Drew must have thrown a banana peel. Yeah. And then Sonia, I love Sonia. She's gonna see you there. They make no sense. I love Sonia, I'm describing it to Ross because he does not give a shit.

Cause she's like, she's like, wow, like even the party for the birthday, like they look like they're in love and then like it's like a week later, they get divorced and he's like, you never know what's gonna happen. Like I don't know what you want me to say. That's sort of a nice generic response to that.

Like, wow, it's crazy, huh? So then we find out the big gossip from Marlowe, the streets talking what they're saying is that she's dating Ty, the basketball player, Mimi's ex. So we saw Ty backstage parting with Drew, getting ready to do her lip sync songs. She said hi Ty, she hugged her, they did some cheers with the big group and that was

all we really saw of her. But now we know, don't don't don't she's being accused of having Ty as her group friend. Yeah. So Manietta's saying, you know, Drew and I were talking on the set of the pass available on peacock, and Drew says, you know, if me and my husband don't work out, I'm gonna go talk to my crush. So we're laughing, and I'm like, who's the crush?

And she says, tie. So that's Manieta's big tie. So then we go to Sonia's house, and this is really sad. So Sonia ended up losing her baby and she was basically, she had a doctor, Jackie told her, oh yeah. Basically, yeah. Yeah, like the child was no longer growing and so they were going to have to remove the child and then Sonja was like, well, I've got to go to work. So she had to go to New York and it seemed like,

okay, she'd have time to go to New York and then come back, but she didn't. And it led to this very dangerous and scary medical situation where she lost a lot of blood and she thought she was gonna die, et cetera. It's just like very, very, very terrible. And what was really hard was that juice, every night, juice would come in and lay his head down on her stomach

and make a prayer that there'd be a healthy baby and that would be a sister. And so they were gonna like maybe not tell juice at first, but then juice did the prayer and it broke her heart. So she had to go tell juice and he started to cry and he really was like, he took it hard and then she starts to cry, she tells the story because she's telling her mother and it's very, that's like so sad. I mean, the silver lining of

it is knowing that Sonia now is in the throes of pregnancy again and it seems like this pregnancy is going along better. So like there is like a silver lining, but it was like a very sad scene. So then it's March 3rd, 2023, five days after filing divorce, Drew goes to the interview studio, Jason, her makeup artist is also there. Yeah, beautiful hair. By the way, props to Jason, that gorgeous hair. Saray is like, she's in another room, finishing up her interview. And so she's like, I got to go, I got to go. And so she's like, I gotta go, I gotta go.

But then we see the camera kinda go to the ceiling, which I guess they do to let them know that they're done filming, but it keeps filming them anyway, cause they're shady assholes on these shows. The camera never stops. So then Shere goes in the room where Drew is getting her makeup done by Jason. And she hugs her.

And she's like, I know we've had our differences, but I don't want this on anyone. And Drew's saying her mom hasn't been able to come in to at this moment because her dad has been really ill and she's like, yeah, that's like my dad. He just died like two days ago. And she's like, wait, what? As soon as they hug and God, I felt so bad for sure.

Ray, God, this sort of like dropped that one right in there, you know? So then, Shrelyves, and then Drew's now getting into glam some more, and then some more. And I'm like, why are we watching Drew getting into glam for an interview? I don't understand why we're watching this. Breathe through it if it's wrong.

I'm not aware of what I'm at. Can we just get to the interview? This is the last gong to sit for his interview. Are you ready, Ralph? Are you ready, Drew? And yes, we're ready to tell you everything, which by the way, spoiler alert for the next 10 minutes of this, they tell us nothing.

Nothing. They tell us nothing. And then this is a part we picked up filming to know fucking nothing from this show. You guys, what's the point? What's the point of even going to work from this show. You guys, what's the point? What's the point of even going to work on this show? Who's working there?

Fire them all. The only upside was watching Drew really, like, again, just really lean into being an actress because she was like, she sits down and she goes, I was just thinking about how when I was here with Ralph and we were in such a good place. And it's like a flashback to two months ago, where Drew is saying that he has a passion for music.

And you smell like husband right now, and they both smile really big in their fake marriage. And Drew be like, ah, ah, those days are past. Ah, ah, those days are past. Huh, huh, huh. She's so dramatic. So for Drew, she's like, a lot of things have been going on in the marriage. I lost my voice, and I allowed things.

No woman should allow. I mean, I allowed Tampa. Like, okay, well, we knew that. And then we kept her Ralph, and he goes, so I asked for a divorce. And he's wearing a Givenchy sweater. Like he's so gross. And he goes, we ended up getting into a pretty big argument.

And that's when I said I wanted to file for divorce. And the producer says, what happened? And he goes, hold on, let me call my lawyer. Am I allowed to talk about anything? Nope. Nope, can't talk about anything. I was like, then why'd you pick up the money again? Stop wasting my fucking time.

Hold on, hold on, I got another call from my lawyer. Hold on, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a 32 inch inseam. Yeah, oh, he's also my tailor. So anyway. He's making me a ham sandwich on top of a tailor shop. The only fucking person who still knows romance in this town. So I served droop divorce papers with a lunchable.

So, so, um, the producer says, like, Hey, so in Drew's filing, she says that there was some kind of infidelity. And let me see, I had lined that Ralph pitman, as a serial cheater and an abuser, uh, in a copy of the newspaper, we all knew that quarterly. And Ralph is like, of the newspaper, we all knew that quarterly. And Ralph is like, yeah, yeah, we're gonna respond to that in all pleading. Okay, we're not gonna do this right now.

It's the pretty sure it's like. He's kind of a laugh, he's like, yeah, we'll be responding. And pretty sure it's like, did you ever move back into the room with the Drew? He's like, yeah, I came back in right after the movie. And of course Drew is like, no, he never moved back in. Yeah, which we know as a lie, because you I came back in right after the movie. And of course Drew is like, no, he never moved back in. Yeah, which we know as a like, is you guys were already shooting right after the movie. So we know that.

So Drew just can't talk about it anymore because she's lying. This is too new. I can't talk about this. It's too much. It's too emotional. It's too emotional. Let's take a look. She's also got 27 messages.

So she starts looking through them, and then we get boom, boom, damn it, toa put cheek. Boom, sorry. We do get a boom. We gotta be from the audience, boom. So then, meanly foused. Post the story, suggesting that her ex,

Ty Young and Drew had an affair. And this is at 8 p.m. when the story goes up. So now it's 8 o' 1 p.m. and we're back with Drew. Drew who, in case for those who don't remember at 7.57, need to take a break because she's just too emotionally caught up to talk about anything. So the producers, the producers are talking to Ralph and they're like, are Drew and Ty dating?

And Ralph is like, yeah, well, Ty and Drew have a Eric quote friendship together. And that's as far as I can say, I can't talk about it. But what I will do is I'm going to put my fingers together like this and have them touch each other right in the center of the fingers, almost like two pairs of scissors, but I can't say anything beyond that. That's all I can say. Yeah, I'll let Mike.

I'll let cousin Courtney do it instead. I already told her what to say. So then we get Courtney of all people and she's like, well, I You're a drill. It's fun in my sensual. I was like really? So I asked Ralph and it was no secret like she has fun with girls too, but he's aware of it. And so then Drew who's just been doing her whole. Drew who's just been doing her whole I can't tell I think of a double I can't she smiling from ear to ear and she's like is this everywhere oh my god I'm freaking out do you see this this is going viral Tom and she's like laughing and smiling so big she is not there's no

exaggeration in what Ronnie is saying like she literally has the biggest smile on her face. It's actually disgusting because she's just so excited that her scandal is like taking off. No. And so Courtney tells us that she knows, here's what she knows. She knows that she visits the girlfriend in Texas. She knows that Ralph has a lot of the quote unquote, discovery because when you're going through the divorce,

you have to find discovery. And Ralph is pretty confident in his discovery. And I'm like, okay, but why are you acting like you just won something when you just told the entire country that Ralph has said that he's fine with her hooking up with other people. So you're not really helping Ralph's case either if he's going to try and blow this into like some huge scary affair and they actually did have a pass.

So then the camera goes up again and we just see the top of Courtney's forehead. So it's like a hot mic moment and she's like, I mean, I have pictures of the moment phone but I wasn't going to say that on camera. I mean, he all shouldn't leave me in here with a vodka for that long. No, I know he see why. He was pushing through hard for that adoption. But she wanted to adopt that child so she could be with her gay lover. And then he knows the best of bills.

So then the producers like, who is this tie? Ty Pennington. He used the host extreme home makeover. He has the sandpaper fake. No, the other tie. Delicious food. I love chicken pad Thai. It's delicious. The one you're fucking.

Drew, come on, but she's loving it. And she's loving the attention. And again, as we saw from the past, she's not a great actress, so she suddenly is like, oh, oh, she's a, I believe, a former WNBA player. And I met her on the set of Candy's movie, which I was in, and I saw her there, and she was tall. She was tall, lesbian-ish.

I think I saw her, I think her name is Rye, like was tall, lesbian-ish. I think I saw her. I think her name is Rye, like the bread, Rye bread. I don't know. I don't really know her very well. I don't know. So the producer's like, is there any truth to the blogs? And she's like, I really haven't logged on.

She's literally scrolling through her phone. I know. And she's like, yeah, I didn't know about any of this until right now. And so he's like, so have you heard the rumor before? And she's, I have heard it from Ralph. And he goes, oh, so you think that Ralph leaked it to the blogs? And she's like, yeah, Ralph just started to conjure up things that maybe I was doing. And there were various things.

And this allegation was one of those things. And I was like, okay. And so then, now I have to care that, look, I'm sorry, I know this is their big scandal, but now I have to pretend I care about Drew. When Drew has been making this whole thing about roughing the cheater of this and that, but now we're gonna find out

that they've had an open relationship this whole time. Is that what's about to happen? Probably. I don't know. It's like I don't even care enough to be annoyed at the subtly homophobic subtext from Ralph and Courtney. I just think the whole thing is so stupid. I think Drew is such a terrible actress.

I think Ralph is terrible. I think this scandal is just not deeply interesting. It's not a scandal. When you watch two people in a terrible marriage for three years and they finally decided to get a divorce, it's just not a scandal. There's no element of surprise here. There's no element of fascination. There's no element of fascination.

And like, okay, maybe Drew has a lesbian lover. I just, I just, it doesn't really have a gravitational pull for me. Yeah, I really don't, I don't care. So that's the season of Atlanta. There are gonna be two parts to this reunion. Now the, the reunion preview looks really good. And that is previews are always at least entertaining. So I'm like, I don't know.

I'm honestly, I was really turned off by the little comic bit they did, the top of the preview of like Andy Cohen reading some sort of newspaper. And I'm like, this show, this season has relied way too much on produced comic bits, you know, in place of actual substance. And I'm like, if this carries on into the reunion, that's not going to be great. I think the stuff between Ralph and Drew will be hilarious because they're both so delusional

and so fake that watching them do get out in front of Andy will be interesting. But I think it's going to be, I think it's going to be a rough two reunions. I don't even care that I have a bad attitude about it anymore. You know, I expect like, I don't wanna yuck a people's, I don't give a fuck. The show is terrible right now. We are, the show needs a lot of help. Well, that brings us to the end of the season.

We will be back later this week with so much, a couple of blow decks. We've got Orange County coming. We've got a Southern Charm trailer. We've got a new dwell.
