Hello, everybody, and welcome back to When Reality Hits with Brittany. I'm doing it solo, but I have a very special guest coming on, and I'm so excited to clear some things up and let you guys hear a different side of the story for a change, and I'm very excited about that. I know, me too. I never get nervous for podcasts. Brit, you got to put sunglasses on and make you an instant. I should probably do that. What if I put sunglasses on to? Okay. So, I was going to have a surprise guest, Tom Schwartz, on,

to recap a lot of the drama going on on the VaynerPump Rules reunion, but things have been spiraling out of control online with Joe. And I feel like Schwartz needs to address some things that are going to. going on because you know you're a good guy and i feel like that this it's not really fair that it's so one-sided last time shorts was on here the podcast he didn't want to mention her name at all because out of respect for her he just wasn't trying to go there and i appreciate that and i think that's great but now the lives are getting a little crazy so everyone say hello to mr tom schwartz what's up everybody hi brett how are you how are you feeling well i know we're supposed to do

like a fun reunion recap yeah but i mean it's like i just Just like, listen, I've tried not to touch this. I've taken the high road. I'm mister rise above, you know? I don't go looking for negative stuff online, but people inevitably like send you stuff. And like, I'm seeing Joe talking shit about me, like random clips, you know. And I've tried not to respond, like just ignore it, you know, like saying I'm her soulmate, uh, reading my text, you know, on a live stream.

And like, I just feel like I have to address this. Yeah, you have to. And it's like, because I'm starting to get really negative comments on my social media. You have to. It's like, it's not getting to me, but it's like, I just want to address it, okay? And you said nothing but nice things about her. Let me make that clear. Schwartz only says nice things about her.

He does not, like, put her down, talk crap about her at all. Thank you. But now things are kind of like spiraling out and lies are being spread. And that's why I really think that Schwartz needed to, like, address this. Thank you, Brett. And, okay, at the top, though, let's just, let's acknowledge, like, clearly she's acting out. You know, she, her feelings are hurt. Yeah.

Okay. I don't want to invalidate her feelings, but also I have feelings and they're valid too, okay? I got feelings. Yeah. Right? For sure. Okay. I just want to like give, I want to shine a light on my point of view and why I pulled

away from her, okay? Because I feel like she's kind of using social media to create like this sort of, I don't know, poor me. I got played breadcrumbing narrative, you know, but she's building like, she's building a following at my expense and I'm getting tired of it. You know what I mean? I mean, the videos have been a lot. That's what I mean.

Like, the live streams, like, I, it's like, I just want to clear some things up. She's blocked on my social media, like, she's deleted from my contacts, you know, but people send me the shit, like, unsolicited. And this will probably be, like, the last time I talk about it, hopefully. But it's just really, it's frustrating to see her playing the role of, like, a victim, okay? It's like, sometimes you really dig somebody and then you find some things out about them that causes you to look at them in a completely different way, you know what I mean? Or sometimes you just really dig somebody

And then the feelings go away Yeah, you were just having fun kind of I feel like you, you know, went through a lot With your relationship and you were going through a divorce And everything else, so yeah No, of course, and like, okay, I will acknowledge Like just to the record, I think people know this But like we hung out so much

We had such a good time together Like we had some sort of whatever you want to call it But you know, we spent a lot of time together And it was so fun But we were never in any sort of conventional exclusive relationship and we were coasting in like a pretty nice direction I think until like

maybe like the beginning of filming and that's where I don't know maybe maybe I started to know like some erratic behavior maybe some red flags yeah I was going to ask you because so many people were wondering she did that like one live

where her friend was in the background and she kept people kept asking her what was the one big thing that made you in Schwartz or that made Schwartz like stop talking to you or like, you know, back up from the relationship. And she was like, I don't know. We don't know what that one thing was. Yeah.

I mean, okay, I didn't see that. But like, listen, I don't want to. Was it one thing or was it a lot of things? It was a lot of things. It was a lot of things. And I'm not going to divulge most of those things. Yeah, you don't have to. One of the biggest things is I found out that she makes up, she makes, I'm not going to, in my

experience, she's a compulsive liar. Yeah. Okay. And I know this firsthand. I will say this. whenever I'm just going to say this story because I feel like people do need to realize this because whenever Kristen's dog Bowie passed away, she was telling people that Jackson and I called her and told her that Kristen's dog passed away.

I don't even have her phone number. I haven't talked to her in years and years and years. So for me, that was just like, why, like, what's the point of saying that? Yeah. Like, that was just such a lot. That's the thing. Like, some of her lies are just, like, benign. For no reason.

They're just benign. And nonsensical kind of outlandish lies. But some of them, like, I'll talk about this. I'll touch on her. I'm not going to go into detail. Yeah. Because I just like, I don't want to grudge or anything like that. But like some of them were malicious or manipulative.

And low key, I feel like kind of what she's doing with these live streams, like building a following at my expense. And like, I feel like she's bored. Like it's slightly manipulating the audience too. But like, you know, again. Well, she keeps saying that you're her soulmate. Yeah. Let's, like, let's get into that.

Yeah. Please. I'm like, what's happening? So, like, all right, just so they have an idea, like, the first one, the first time I was like, oh, my God, like, holy shit, that caught me really off guard. It's kind of a doozy. I was going to say, did she say that to you? Like, was she open? Like, you're my soulmate to you?

No, she was not like that to me. Like, we had a great connection, okay? Like, that's established. We were hanging out a lot. By the way, she never lived with me. Just to the record, Joe has her own place. She has, like, a rental property. She has an apartment.

I never lived together. But without a doubt, like, we had a great connection. and like around the time we started filming is where I started slowly pulling away and like one of the main reasons was like the first lie that I substantiate and I found out it's like just like casually one day she mentioned

that she used to babysit for one of our executive producers kids yeah and she told me that and I was like I was telling you that to your face just so nonchalantly and she was like because I was telling her about the pitfalls of doing reality television and somehow it's like you know things can get taken out of context

it can distort your image And she's like, no, no, no. It's like, I'm not worried about that. Because, like, I babysit your executive producer's kids. Oh, my gosh. And it's like, I never, I had no reason to question that. But I asked him, like, weeks later. And he's like, no, I had never met her before the show started.

That was the first seed of doubt. Yeah. You're like, whoa. Like, what's the point of that lie, you know? We were never in any sort of conventional relationship. So I didn't, I didn't confront her. I was just like, okay. And I started slowly pulling away at that point.

You know what I mean? And then as time went on. you know we filmed we had a good time i thought we could just stay friends like we like in i just i like people started coming out of the woodwork and telling me things about her and i would like shut them down sometimes even go to bat for her and defend her it's like the thing that really was it ever a red flag for you that she just kind of like stopped talking to christin i mean i never at the time no i got to be honest though i was down i was like fucked up i was in my own world i was vulnerable I was not thinking right.

Right. Like, as time went on, like some other things happened, um, in particular, I'm not going to go into this, but there's some, like I said, we need to hear some things because you need to say your size a little bit.

After what I just told you. Yeah. After like, I shouldn't even have to say anything else. But like some of the things that happened were kind of manipulative and malicious. Joe is not a bad person. She's not malicious. But some of the things I found out that she told my family behind my back really,

your family too. Yeah. Like my mom told me. My sister told me. My brother told me. And it's just, honestly, do you think that was the biggest thing

of why you started pulling away? Yes, for sure. For sure. Yeah. Because my family got involved. And like, it's like they were. And your family's super close.

You're like so close to them. Really fucking like dangerous accusations. And like I just, I don't even know she remembers this, Joe, if you're listening. I don't even know if she remembers this shit. Like really?

I just like, just based on like the, I don't know if I want to recount it. You should. I don't want to recount it. But she's like, she just, she went behind my back and,

and called my, family and said some fucked up things and like her and my sister were as like they they were like two peas in a pot they i swear to god my sister was her biggest fan in the world yeah you even told me that your sister really liked her she spent two nights with joe and she said it was one of the worst experiences of her entire life just think of go like think about this it's kind of a profound statement she spent two nights with her she had to block her afterwards and she's like i'm traumatized she apologized to me profusely for weeks for trying to push her on me And I was like, because I was like, I was trying to explain to her like, Joe's a great person.

Like she's cool, but I just know like there's no longevity here. Yeah. And I just don't think like I have, I have some reservations about it. But anyways, not going to go into detail. I mean, that kind of says a lot anyway. Just like that stuff, it just really rubbed me the wrong way. And I'm just, I don't know. I just want to say in my experience, like I just, there was too many, there's too many lies.

How do you feel about her like outing your text messages? Like she was like reading them on lives, correct? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, like I said, clearly like Joe's hurt. I don't think she may I don't know if she has a great support system she's like looking for validation on social media and you know I just it felt like kind of a violation you know what I mean like if if like if Joe hears this way I'm going to do a call to action Joe if you hear this Haley like the person that I used to know what like go and show them you know go show them your hobbies like the shit you do your hair business surfing go be zainty and wow just don't can try to build a the following at my expense yeah you know what i mean like just like this is i don't know she's she's looking for like short-term clout and imaginary online sympathy and then i feel like she's

sacrificed any sort of chance she has for like legitimacy or you know it just a credibility it's just i don't know i get it like i think she's hurt but like i pulled away from her because there's just too many lies too many i'm like trust me i have a list of like minimum of 20 yeah 20 like substantiated Unfirmed lies. I mean, didn't she kind of say that after you guys did the reunion together that you were hanging out with her or texting her? One of the ones that really rubbed me the wrong way. I don't know what I'm like I don't know the timelines on this stuff. Someone sent me one like a week ago and she was doing a live stream and she's like he texts me nonstop, but I don't feel comfortable because I know he's seeing someone and I'm just like what the f is she talking about. Yeah, because you're like a week ago. Yeah. Because you're not doing that obviously. I don't know. I'm not trying to hold a grudge. I just I don't have a grudge Like I have no hard feelings It's just like I pulled like people need to respect

The reasons why I pulled away from her They're very fucking valid Yeah I'm sorry They're very valid And anybody in my situation Would have done the same thing For sure I'm sorry

I mean lies from the get go Like big lies about big people in our lives That's weird Some benign but some like the stuff With my family I can never look at her the same way Yeah She's cut from you know

She's cut from my life forever Yeah I mean How are you feeling right now I mean, I know it's all a lot and like the fact that she was on the reunion I thought was kind of crazy because I don't even remember was I on my first year reunion. I don't know. But like that had to be a lot for you to like have to deal with that as well. Because like I know that it's just like taken off and just went viral. I just like it's like it did. It did. It's like I'm getting so many comments like you breadcrumbed her. You let her on. I'm just like you guys. Sometimes you feel like you did it all. Like do you want to explain that part as well? Yes. Yeah. Like I said in the beginning like you. We had so much fucking fun. We had an undeniable connection. It was fucking fun, man. Yeah.

It's like in the beginning. I think I like Joe because she was just so like the polar opposite human of Katie. And I don't mean that in a spiteful way. Yeah. It's just like coming out of a 13 year relationship and like without a doubt. So I don't want to confuse people. Yeah. And given quote unquote mixed signals.

But like sometimes you guys, you come into something and there's like a, you know, there's a haze of like some sort of infatuation. You dig each other. It's so fun. But then when you find something out. about someone it changes the way you look at them forever and it's like when you find out someone's making up like random lies i don't know it makes you question all the all the outlandish stories she ever told me the thing she said it makes me question her motive for coming into my life

you know what i mean i'm not slippery sloping but it makes me like i'm i'm not just like there's a lot of them yeah people like patrons in my bar would tell me stuff my family would tell me stuff like after we stop seeing each other literally all my friends that i'm close with came to me and mentioned things and I'm just like, oh, my God. And also, like, a lot of people watching a reality TV show don't realize how long ago these things were filmed. And, like, you went through these things. So, like, how long has it been since you and Joe, like, haven't even been talking to each other? Like, maybe we should clarify that so that people.

I mean, yeah, we, I've barely talked to her in the past five months. Okay. Yeah. And I think that's very important to address because people think that they're watching a live show sometimes. And it's like, no, this was filmed months ago. Yeah, it's like, it's just, I don't know, ever since. like sometimes like late summer early fall there was like some incidents of my family just like it just caused me to pull away yeah and i tried you know me i don't want any bad i know there

wasn't one big thing but definitely addressing your family and in doing things with your family was just like what did like that was like okay i can't i think in the moment she thought she she was doing something for me i mean i don't i don't want to get into that you don't have to it's like it's it's but i think people listening would understand like when your family's involved that's like a whole different level, you know? Yeah, that was that last text I sent her, which she read like only a portion of on the live stream. That's the reason, because I had pretty much cut off contact, but like I got infuriated.

So I kind of raged text it a little bit. It was actually a very constructive semi-uplifting text towards the end. But like I started enumerating some of the reasons why I left her and why when you find out a few lies, some, again, some innocent and some not so innocent. It makes you just question everything. And anyways, just, hey, go live your life. go build a following do your live streams do a surfing live stream just don't try to do it at my expense she's not a victim yeah she's not a fucking victim okay i love that you said i love that you said like show like

things that you're good at like show your surfing show this show that like that's like that's very nice of you to say especially after your name is being dragged around like that exactly by that person and like on some level i get that this is like her brush with fame here it's new it's exciting yeah before we even like talk today shorts was like it's so hard whenever you're first time on reality tv like there's a lot that comes with it a lot of pressure a lot of comments a lot of everything so like even shorts was being like i get that part of it thanks for saying that yeah i understand she's probably she's experiencing like her her brain's probably lit up like the fourth of july yeah because it's like she's in a she's in a negative and positive feedback loop on social media and i'm not saying like we're jaded

but I've been there done that and it still gets to me sometimes after 11 years but like dude the fact that she's doing it at my expense it needs to be addressed and I'm shutting it down yeah I pulled away for very valid fucking reasons get over it move on close that chapter of your life start a new shiny bright one go blossom go be great give them Joe just just keep my name out of your mouth and move on with your life I love it so see like we still want the best for you Joe if you're listening or whoever like a It's always uplifting, and that's one thing I love about Schwartz. Like, he's not trying to, like, bring somebody down or anything, you know, so. I just, yeah. And, like, I wanted it on a positive note, but it's like, she also, like, she used to preach about how much she hate social media, how she would never do reality TV. Oh, that's the worst. The gospel. Not just, like, once or twice.

It was her gospel. That's the worst. And now I see how she's acting. And, by the way, good for her. When you experience, as life goes on, you change your outlook, your perspective. on life with new information you know i like that she's embracing it but she's doing it at my expense and it just seems like i don't know yeah it seems clownish well i'm glad you addressed it i think that that was important yeah anyways i'm like i'm like we're not filming right now vprs on hiatus i'm like

i'm taking a little detox from social media i'm gonna chill out i'm gonna go on some side quests and um what side quest you know just like maybe reinvent myself maybe they're literally new language travel Learning a new language at this age is so hard. It's so hard. Like, it's insane. I got babble. I did it too. I was trying to learn Spanish like 1,000 percent.

Like, I got this. Yeah. And all I remembered is like the things from high school was like, Cervesa means beer. My Spanish teacher in high school, I think, was an alcoholic. So that was like her favorite word. Okay. We're in high school and she's like,

Cervesa, Cervesa. I remember the first song I ever learned in Spanish. You want to hear it? Yeah. And it's like stuck with me. me, you so in CERdo, I'm a good to Travajar. If you speak Spanish, you know.

Thank you so much for singing that for me. The translation is hilarious. What is it, tell me. I am a pig. I am a pig. I do not like to work, which is low-key true. I'm just kidding. That is hilarious.

Okay, so let's do a little. What's going on in the Valleyland? Oh, yeah. The Valley, you know, this last episode was super tough for me and Jacks. I was like getting car sick. He was trying to blame it on me drinking. I hadn't drank that day. I think I had like one shot with the crew earlier. Get car sick. And then he's like hounded me all night about it. It was not a good look. It was not good. So how did you see the episode? I saw clips online. But I know they get chopped up and sort of processed for maximum clickbait. So I know better than to, you know, react from just what I see on. Yeah, but yeah, from what I've heard, from what I'm hearing, it's not good. It was not good. And I know you're good friends with Jacks. You're good friends with me, but how do you feel about Jack's doing that to me? I'm going to put you on the spot right now.

Oh, my God. Wait, I didn't see the episode. Can I plead the fifth? Because I don't know. I don't have context. I just saw clips where it's like, you were in the room. He's like, stop. So he's like, so my room that I chose was like right beside the kitchen.

So they're all like talking in the kitchen. and I could hear everything they're saying I didn't even have a mic on or anything because I was like sick and you know me I want to be a part of the party like if I wasn't feeling good I wouldn't be you know not a part of all my friends and everybody out there we were supposed to cook a dinner and I'm like one of the best cooks so I was like had all this stuff playing to cook and of course then like Janet had to do most of it and you know it became like this whole thing and I felt so guilty about that part but jacks was just like going in being like I bet she's drinking I bet she's drinking and I bet she's drinking and I was wasn't and all my friends were like no she's not and he was kind of like putting me down in front of all of my friends he's like that's one thing that you've probably seen in our relationship is like jacks doesn't care to fight with me in front of people and that's and by the way that's one of the great things i've learned from my past relationship and from ken shout out to ken it's like support it public uh talk about it in private exactly and that's something that me and like that's something that like always really embarrassed me but i just came

busting out of that room they had a boom on me in two seconds and I was like and I just like spewed out my heart because it was so hard for me to hear that whenever you're sick and your own husband is kind of like talking about you and putting you down you already don't feel good you know so it was just like a whole like thing and I know Schwartz is so uncomfortable right now because he doesn't know what to say about Jacks no I can know first of all no he handled that very poorly jacks would admit that if he was here I'd say the same thing yeah but I think uh the reason he said it because he thought you you know you were like overconsuming because you have a stomach issue don't you yeah he thought so you were just kind of doing like this masochistic thing and

not learning your lesson yeah so i thought i think he thought that he was giving you a lesson but i mean it was like it didn't it didn't hit either because i hadn't drank like he thought he was like you guys drank on the boat we didn't have one sip on the boat the guys had the alcohol yeah so they're all wasted and all day jacks is like i'm wasted i'm wasted all the guys are hammered all the girls are completely sober and then it becomes like he flips on me and says that I was the drunk one whenever really he was the drunk one, which has happened to me numerous times, numerous times.

You know, this is the ongoing thing that he's done to me over our nine-year relationship. Oh, now I'm squirming. Yeah. Oh, my God. I think I got to go. I got to see the episode, but also I know your guys' relationship. You're both very candid with me. Yeah. How are you guys

doing right now? Um, not great. Right now I'm kind of like, can't even be in the same room with him very long where last time you were here i was like fine you thought you were like i forget you guys are even separated so it's very up and down like that yeah you you guys seem like dare i say cute because i don't want to disrespect you because you guys do both set boundaries but like yeah seemed kind of like the old jackson brittany would he try to kiss me on the cheek or try to give me a pet kiss and i gave him my cheek that was so i know it was cute though but also i understand like no you guys have made your decision and yeah you guys i think you guys do a good job of respecting each other's boundaries, right?

No? He hasn't done a good job respecting mine, that's for sure. Oh, shit. But we got to remember I'm the one that's living elsewhere, and I'm the one that's like, I feel like I'm the one that's taking all of the heart hits, even though I was the one that had to leave. Schwartz is going to die. He's like, don't talk to me about this, please.

I'm using Transcendental Meditation. I've gone to another place. I'm back in Florida. I'm on the beach. I got a really cold corona light in my hand, a shot of Patron. And I'm happy. Yeah. But I'm a physically, I'm here.

Is there anything from the reunion, obviously going through a weird time in my relationship right now, but, or what would I call it? Are we in, are me in Jackson a situation now? Like, what the heck do we call it? I don't even know. Very weird. You're separated in your, and you're co-parenting. Yeah, co-parenting.

I say doing a stand-up job of co-parenting. Thank you. That part is the most important. Yeah, I said this last time. And I feel like when it comes to Cruzy, you guys are, like, very practical, reasonable. I don't see any. I've never seen an ounce of toxicity around Cruz, which I admire because it's like, because the rest is can be hard, you know.

And there's a lot of love there. Like, I feel like, like, this is not a health, I don't know. Yeah. Like, as far as Cruz is concerned, I don't know. I don't want to open up this. Yeah, no. It's true. It's true.

Like, we both are very respectful of that. And even on days where I'm like, don't talk to me. If it's about Cruz, we're going to respond and talk to each other. Do you know what I mean? So it's like that is always number one and most important. Was there anything from your reunion that you wanted to talk about? I would prefer not to. Just call me Bartleby the fucking Scrivener.

I would prefer not to. You are so funny. Okay. We don't have to at all. Schwartz, this is your first time at my Airbnb. What do you think? She's literally living in my dream pack. I guess it's mid-century modern-esque, but with a slight tinge of, like, modernism.

And it's, like, beautiful. The landscape is insane. There's plants everywhere. You guys know how much I like plants. There's a ping pong table. Yeah, there's a ping pong table. I think the outside looks like Palm Springs, and then it looks like Miami in the inside. Yeah, maybe.

You know what I mean? Maybe some art deco undertones, but the landscaping is insane. And I'm, like, listen, I saw the comments about people. speculating about whether or not I'm going to move in with Tom. They're not good. So I was thinking, yeah. You know, I, I'm about a move in here. Hey, give me, give me some money monthly and we're good to go.

5K a month. I want two rooms. I want the ping pong table. Ping pong table is in the shared space, but you definitely get the biggest room. Okay. I don't want to need the biggest room. They're both big. You'd be good.

There's no pool, though. I think it would make more sense than Sandemol. Oh, hilarious. Jackson would have a panic attack. Oh, my God. Jackson, we're kidding. Schwartz, thanks for coming on. Hey, thanks for having me. And telling your side of the story.

Listen, you know, I appreciate you. You know, it's not about who's right, who's wrong. It's like the intricacies of life. Oh, my God. I'm trying to be poetic or philosophical. I should just shut up. You always say the biggest words. I'm like, huh?

The only time I use big words is that it was when I'm overcome. commenting for my stupidity no you were great thank you so much for coming on and i hope people can see a little bit more into your side of this whole situation because that's that's that's crazy yeah appreciate that yeah and well hopefully you have one more episode left as banner pup right now right yeah i feel like towards the end of the reunion there was um was it worse at the end no i felt like i don't know maybe i'm delusional but i felt like some sort of sense of oneness i don't know i felt like a not a one love obviously that's not going to happen again with certain cast members yeah yeah but i don't know i think it just kind of i felt a moment where we were reflecting on

how long we've all been friends and been together the highs and lows everything in between i don't know i it felt sentimental yeah it didn't feel like it end to me but um it didn't or did not didn't okay um anyways well good i hope everybody tunes in next tuesday to vanderpump rules the last of reunion finale and then obviously the valley next tuesday valley valley's on fire by the way it's like we talked about this last time before we go it's like i've i've never watched the majority of vanderpump rules episodes especially the vintage ones yeah so i thought it'd be fun to do like a little retrospective at schwartz and sandies and have some special guests hopefully can get brittany in there yeah i'll come in yeah and maybe jacks once in a while the oh geez i don't know we'll see what

we can do but we're just have us there on separate nights and we're good to go we're going to start with episode one we're not going to watch it sequentially but we're going to start with i've never seen episode one i couldn't tell you what happens there are so many episodes i've never seen at all at all we're going to do that every tuesday we're leaning to the vpr thing and we're going to brace that on tuesdays and then we got all kinds of cool shit coming in new music do food new drinks anyways sometimes i just like britt i'm sure you can relate with this sometimes it's hard to not get hurt by the things that are being said about you online you know it's almost impossible not to take it personally because it's your life but it's also snippets of your life and like watching this season back like i totally understand where the audience is coming from you know i don't fault them for judging me especially like watching the reunion

they have limited information they have to just react based on what they're watching and you know that being said like the producers the editors they do a fucking hell of a job for creating a you know a great show with the information they have but it's like rarely we do we have time to get into all the nuances and everything, you know? The great area. I like the great area. Not that I, wait, this is not good for me. Because people tell me I need to stop straddling the fence.

Anyways. I do it too. I do it too. I like audience members, I still love you. And like I feel like I've fostered such a great community in the bars. Every single night, there's so much love. A lot of hate online, but I don't take it personally. I still love you guys.

Anyways. Love it. I got to get the out of here. Come hang out with me. Yes. Come take a half shot with me. Tell everybody where to do it. to find you talking about all your plugs right now yep yep you can find me on uh instagram t w shaw
