0:32Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Butterball Turkey. Butterball. Care hard. Cook easy. I was watching The Real Housewives of Orange County the other night, and I was thinking so much of this drama could have been solved with turkey. I think that about so many things. Exactly. Just get everyone around the table with a delicious meal. A turkey meal. That's how you bring people back together. What if it wasn't Thanksgiving? Being the Grand Dame isn't a one-day-a-year affair.

0:58Ben Mandelker: Every day is a chance to get down with turkey burgers, ground turkey, and more. Eating turkey is like watching Bravo. You can do it anytime, and the more you do it, the happier you are.

1:07Ronnie Karam: Yeah, Butterball Turkey is made for everyday moments that bring people together with ease, and it tastes great while doing it. Do you think if a Butterball Turkey showed up at the Real Housewives of Rhode Island reunion,

1:17Ben Mandelker: it could bring everyone back together? Maybe it would, girly. Maybe it would. I love a turkey.

1:24Ronnie Karam: Butterball simplifies cooking so you can focus on who you're cooking for. Butterball has turkey made for the way you care, whether you're cooking for your best friend or mending bridges with your frenemy. Butterball. Care hard, cook easy.

1:54Who cares what happens when there's so much that crappens?

2:24Ben Mandelker: tied up and stranded in Singapore. So before we get into that, please join us on Patreon, patreon.com slash watch for crappens to do things like, you know, if you support on the crappens on demand level, you can watch us, not just listen to us. And we also have bonus episodes. We did all of Love Island on our bonus episodes. And those will be resuming next week. So go check those out. But today, here it is. It's the, it's one of the buzziest shows of the summer. Next gen New York city, wrapping up shall we just get into it ronnie yeah let's do it so did you see the news going around that this was bravo's highest premiere ever i did not see the news going around that's very exciting the the and i don't know why they're doing this eight uh eight weeks after it premiered but the news this week is nyc was bravo's biggest premiere it was like five over five million viewers or something they said the show's doing really really well yeah i think i didn't so i didn't read that article but um i feel like they probably they probably have to wait a while because um i think that trying to get all those streaming numbers is i think they want to get as many streaming numbers as possible so maybe they're like oh over the course of the season this many people watched the first episode because people may have watched the first episode four or five weeks later so that way they can this is my this is my theory which is why they wait so long to announce that kind of stuff because then they can say that's how many numbers it's still very cool though because it also by the way just shows that the ratings really don't don't tell the full story because like every day you go onto twitter and there's someone who's like oh next gen new york city new york city got five viewers looks like bravo's really tanking and they just like love to relish in that and it's like yeah that's the the ratings don't count as much anymore because people are streaming it like people are not watching you know old-fashioned tv the same way anymore so it's just exciting to know that people are actually watching these shows despite various twitter accounts trying to kind of like be like bravo's over it's like it's not over it's thriving

4:28Ronnie Karam: yeah shut up shut up i still love it shut up guys okay so um we are at the jersey shore the jersey shore at the birthday party for brooks and everyone had a wild night at the casino know and so we're waking up and getting breakfast and stuff like that and ariana is texting riley and she's like morning i hope you're feeling better i'm sorry for last night are we okay i love new york i'm such a new yorker right now i am so new yorky and like it was the last night

4:59Ben Mandelker: was just like not my proudest moment like i never wanted riley to feel like she had nobody in her corner because she was she had in her corner a new yorker a new new yorker that's me yeah so then um

5:11Ronnie Karam: um riley we see a flashback where riley's like yeah i don't appreciate when my friends come into this situation and are like i heard this one sentence like let me have whoever side i agree with like have my back in public and talk to me in private okay but ariana's like i'm a shitty friend i should maybe be a better friend because i love her and then we have uh we go to gia and

5:33Ben Mandelker: christian and they are making breakfast and making lots of pancakes which was really nice because now that love island usa is over i realized i've gone through a pancake uh withdrawal so it's nice to see some gen x gen zers making pancakes again on tv and she said she didn't even know how to make pancakes and they look i think she was good i have to say i think i thought she was being sarcastic when she said that she's like yeah i don't know how to make these i'm sure she is oh but that makes sense great i'm telling you when joe judice was the was the parent in that household while well teresa was in jail i guarantee gia was making all those breakfasts one thing she learned how to do is make some breakfast for a lot of people yeah uh that's probably why her hand gesture is always like she's just make like placing a stack of pancakes she always has her

6:19Ronnie Karam: hand flopping down like these are the pancakes it's just her intimation i can never tell what the emotion is when she's saying something it's always like yeah i don't know how to make pancakes I don't know if that's sarcastic but she could be crying I don't know I don't know the difference

6:35Ben Mandelker: so they gather around this table outside and Brooks is like thanks everyone for making such a beautiful breakfast I'm so proud that we've all gathered here to eat carbs for the first time I know it's crazy but I think we can do it

6:48Ronnie Karam: so can I make a toast thanks everyone thank you all for being here I love you so much I love that we're honest with each other and honestly I don't like that they call it toast because it really it's just like a carb and we shouldn't be engaging i have to say by the way over the weekend i went

7:05Ben Mandelker: to maryland and uh in honor of amyra who i'm really growing to love amyra i think she's like great and i love her takes on the show but in honor of her i went to red robin for the first time ever and i had my first red robin experience and how'd you like it it was delicious because they got crazy burgers there they're like blue cheese candied apple and m &m's burger i know the burger sounds kind of it's not doesn't sound so bad actually there was like one burger that was like a queso burger that looked like it looked like someone dropped a ball of queso on a burger from like an airplane it was just like splattered all over but i got the i got like a mushroom and swiss burger which is low-key one of my favorite types of burgers and then so uh it was it was lovely i the fries were great burger was great it was a good red robin experience yeah so brooks is

7:56Ronnie Karam: like i know things can be combative but at least you guys aren't trying to stop working for your moms and they're like yeah good point good point brooks so um then we see clips of the drama from the season and he's like uh so amira's like riley what's wrong what's wrong riley because riley's just sitting over there like i will not speak i'm upset and now you will all ask me why i'm upset she's doing that that thing and so she's like yeah i've learned my lesson and amira's like about what

8:27Ben Mandelker: she goes speaking all right i was like i mean at least i can speak for me but i always want to hear what you have to say riley so that way we can then make you feel bad about it and babe i don't want

8:38Ronnie Karam: you to feel like you can't say anything like i want you to know like your voice matters and i honestly think it's just the way you say things just like how sometimes i say things you don't like my approach it's like the same thing but without an annoying whiny voice riley's like

9:00Ben Mandelker: well i understand i can't be like oh i shouldn't have said that and erases it like i know that doesn't work that way i know that but i also feel like i acknowledged what i said and when georgia was talking about her idea and you were like oh my god riley that's so mean i was like well i just said I shouldn't say it because for those who didn't watch last week's episode Riley was like she was about to say something and she goes oh no never mind I'm not going to say it and then everyone's like no say it say it say it and then she said and they're like that was mean and she's like I told you it was going to be mean that's why I wasn't going to say it

9:31Ronnie Karam: so George is like yeah but like that was your moment to pause and think like oh my god like what I'm about to say is probably too harsh so maybe I shouldn't say it and then Amira gives her this look she gives her the ozempic shaming look because she made an ozempic joke towards amir last week and amir is never gonna let it go yeah because amir is like um because georgia is like preaching about how you should pause and

9:58Ben Mandelker: think about like what you're about to say it probably sounds too harsh when she herself has said some very harsh things so i was like well to be real i said well i thought that me and georgia were like friends and like if you're my friend i should be able and my friend said what do you think about this idea i would be honest because i thought we were friends and we just had a whole nice day where i had to sit there and have miami vices with you in some shitty hotel on ocean beach and g is like okay well i think that there's like maybe like a nicer way to say it like that's all i'm trying to say it's like there's like riley doesn't understand it all just being like that is a terrible idea it's like i don't i don't understand how that was bad she's like what how did that hurt i don't get it i don't get it everybody so they're like riley And Christian's like, yeah, you know, she can talk however she wants.

10:44If you don't like it, don't talk to her. And Gia, you just see Gia seed a little. She's like, okay, Christian, carry this later.

10:52Ben Mandelker: Christian definitely has the energy of, like, the guy who runs a pizza place in the teen movie whose daughter's going off to prom. And he's going to give, like, some warm advice. You know, I think he has early Joe Giudice energy. Because what he just said was basically like, so what? Who cares? So what? Yeah. Who cares? Who cares? Who cares? so what come on so what so riley is like riley's like look if i if i speak it's an issue if i don't speak it's an issue so brooks comes over he's like i'm gonna hug you mainly because i heard that hugging burns a little more carbs than usual it's like okay fine so so mira and brooks do a

11:27Ronnie Karam: confessional together and they're like yeah riley really wears her heart on her sleeve and he's like yeah yeah she always expects people to have her best interests yeah and she's not guarded at all yeah could you say something else not at all good job good job brooks yeah you know people take advantage but she's a baby so it's like part of growing up you know i think we all owe riley an apology and she said she didn't want to say it and they were all saying say it say it and everyone turns on her i just think that's like not fair i completely agree can i hug you i have

12:03Ben Mandelker: a few more calories to burn i was like it's just like it's really frustrating but then birds come and they're like wait are these birds gonna like shit on us if they poop on us that's like disgusting like ew so they all basically run inside like we need to get out of jersey they just show shy running he's like holding a plate of pancakes and he's like no

12:22Ronnie Karam: so now they're packing and uh george and charlie are spending some cute time outside with the bong and uh she's like you know omar and i are exclusive now and he's like that's dope like oh, Sarah was hitting this while you said that. And she's like,

12:42we're basically best friends. We're like brothers and sisters, me and Charlie.

12:46Ben Mandelker: I'm like, you guys never even resolved your issues. Like you guys just had a huge fight before this trip. And now you're just like hanging out. And he's like, oh my God, bongs, am I right? Aren't drugs hilarious? I'm such a rebel. So she's like, yeah, we have a label. I mean, I've been single, aka non-monogamous, for five years. It's just like, what? He's like, yeah, I've had a lot of relationships. Really? What, you mean like Lindsay Lohan? He's like, no, Lindsay doesn't count. Really? You weren't in love with Lindsay Lohan? Oh my god, I love how hilarious we are right now.

13:22Ronnie Karam: So she's like, you know what? At the end of the day, you get nothing for nothing. There's still love for Charlie, because we like have a friendship for a reason. The bong. It's mostly the bong. So then we see proof of this because he offered Georgia his shirt so she could dive in the water for Riley's phone. So, you guys, it's, like, real.

13:43Ben Mandelker: It's real. And it only took six weeks for him to get that shirt back.

13:49Ronnie Karam: So he loves her, too. They're like brothers and sisters. So he's like, well, congrats for, like, you and Omar. Like, I like him a lot. She goes, yeah, I know. Like, I just, like, want him to talk to you. Like, you guys need a moment. I like want you guys to have a moment. I hope it's like in front of like an artistic display of like bowling balls. He's like, yeah, I was going to get dinner with him. Like I'm down to chill with the bro.

14:11Ben Mandelker: Yeah, I'm cool like that. So now people are like, they're going to go, they're heading home to Jersey and they're in their SUVs, whatever. But then they like stop to go to like a rest stop or whatever. and everyone is waiting for Brooks. So George is getting really annoyed.

14:36Ronnie Karam: Gas station nachos, which isn't something I really ever thought I'd see. Where you pour the chips into a plastic thing and then put the cheese on top from the Yeah. I wouldn't think he's a gas station nachos kind of a guy.

14:51Ben Mandelker: Yeah. I wouldn't think so either, but I'm not going to lie. I was kind of like, I wouldn't be mad at that. No, gross.

14:57Ronnie Karam: Bad, bad.

14:59Ben Mandelker: I was like, that looks kind of good to me. Maybe I still had the Red Robin queso burger in my mind. Yeah, no, no.

15:05Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I bought cheese the other day that I thought was cheddar cheese because it was in the deli section and it was like fresh cut. You know when you get it from the deli section and it's, I don't know, it's like supposed to be better than getting it in the pre-wrapped section, I guess. So I brought it home and it says on the label, processed American cheese. What the fuck? What is that? Why are you selling that in the deli section? well it's the valley what can i say sprouts it was a sprouts i'm like you're supposed to be fancy what the hell no so anyway there well while brooks is like getting his nachos the gas station

15:38Ben Mandelker: nachos georgia's getting restless and she's like oh my god i'm gonna call an uber so georgia and charlie go get an uber so they could drive back at roughly the same rate as if they just stayed in their car but they can spend more money in the process and riley's like oh my god they're so dramatic i mean this is what i mean she was so appalled about being called privileged and amyra's like georgia if you stand on the side of the road someone will pick you up i promise

16:09Ronnie Karam: hudson's like guys there's a privileged way to go and a non-privileged way to go and they've chosen the privileged way so omar has called them a car because of course they're gonna mooch it off somebody else so he calls a car for them and kevin is uh kevin's like oh my god remember when they said that their relationship was irreparable yeah looks like it's okay now oh it's so irreparable and riley's like i mean also she's wearing who wears a swimsuit for that long like that cannot be good for the cooch and i was like definitely not so uh they all start talking i mean that's

16:45Ben Mandelker: great because it gives them an opportunity to talk shit so um you know ariana's like yeah i mean she's sitting there so excited about our idea and then riley's like it's a terrible idea and i was like i mean honestly like where is she getting the money like girl be for real i don't think omar i mean you've been dating him for like three months it's i don't think he's gonna like invest like a million dollars into this and they're like well he said so she goes yeah well also he's an alleged scammer so i don't know how i don't know how far this is gonna go you guys google him google him that's all i'm saying just google him oh my god you make a food comment at this chick and she's gonna take you down she's great i'd love it my god clarket who said that clarket i'm just predicting that that's gonna be a phrase in the year from now no it's clarket no clarket that was clarket i know she said clarket but clark you missed a lot when you gone ronnie what happened who's clark clark it is what people are saying now instead of clock it why who's clark from love island usa because there was like a moment where clark was like she like rolled her eyes or something and then everyone started saying oh i know it from love island usa i've never heard anybody say it out loud i've only read it in uh threads it's okay ronnie i've never heard it used as a real thing before that's funny if it makes you feel any better i did have to ask someone like what is clarket i was like so i'm just acting like i knew it all along but it's okay i'm just passing on education but i was like you're talking about children on the tv i was like what i was like i get that it's clarket it's but i'm saying clarket i thought you i thought you heard it wrong i was like what is that what you're talking about sorry my bad clarket so amira's like um i won't say anything else about george's boyfriend i will just say google him and then see if he's going to give her that million dollars to invest in the bar i tried to google him and i could not figure out what his last name was so my googling did not go very far i found someone else named omar who was a scammer but i don't think it was him which was

18:52Ronnie Karam: so now um on meanwhile on the road to montauk and we see ava's instagram story she's like hey guys you're coming on an event with me and to montauk for dolce but unfortunately like trump's in town or something so like i'm stuck in like traffic so like i need pictures like i live for content so watch what i do in a pinch i get out on the side of the road and i take pictures anyway made it with half an hour to spend got a cupcake thanks dolce

19:25yeah um it was really not the best it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial

19:37Ronnie Karam: I have a giant deck outside and needed to furnish it and was worried about getting things that matched and getting things from different stores and making it all work together.

22:11Ronnie Karam: I think it should just be pictures. Because the videos hurt my soul. They hurt.

22:16Ben Mandelker: like and also like don't announce that like you like you did not go to this this event and because you're like I've got this thing that's coming up it's coming up and then you were this late to it like right like

22:30Ronnie Karam: everybody else was coming from the same place that you were and they all made it so everyone made it like

22:36Ben Mandelker: why didn't you just go like the night before and spend the night in the Hamptons like why are you just hanging around the city so then Charlie and Shia and Dylan are at T-Squared Social and they're like, what's up, man? Hey. And Charlie's like, oh, thanks for not coming, Dylan. You really fucking left me without a paddle, bro. Because Ava didn't even come either and I was really like, I was ass out and now I'm missing a shirt. So then Ariana's hanging out with her friend Austin. They're all like, it's like what the kids are doing in the city now, you know?

23:07Ronnie Karam: Yeah, so then Brooks is at his apartment taking out groceries and he's like, oh my God, they were supposed to give me a covid test and they gave me a pregnancy test i'm still taking it so he calls chloe and um she's like how are you feeling and he's like i'm like obviously like overwhelmed because like i'm doing my resort collection do they wear jogging seats at resorts now

23:33Ben Mandelker: what resort where is the resort alaska i don't know i don't know last time we looked he was still learning how to do a so use a sewing machine they show him drawing on the ipad but they don't show what he's drawing and every time you get any kind of sense of what it is it's just he's using the biggest marker on there and it's just big it's just a big red blob so i'm not really sure what he's supposed to be doing but i was cracking up i know so brooks is like i so she's like what's going on with your merger it's like well america i started my brand four years ago and i launched a few different products just one product really and they were all really successful with my mom she bought like three of them and i'm just like so i'm creative director at meredith marx and i mean i just feel like i'm being pulled in two separate directions like meredith marx has my arm here and brooks marx is my brand here i'm literally gonna split in half like it's awful

24:26Ronnie Karam: it's like so hard there's so many instagrams so then we see a flashback of him talking about merging with meredith marx i think it should be an acquisition it should be a conglomerate meredith is like wow your first word was mama and your second word was conglomerate i've never

24:48Ben Mandelker: been prouder of a time he's literally acting like he is paramount and skydance trying to merge together and get stephen colbert fired seth is like well are you aware of the level of attachment issues you have with your mother? Do we need to Google that and what attachment are? I'm being hilarious right now. Okay, attachment issues is when a child has attached to their mom. When the child can't do anything completely on their own and need their mom to validate them. America, are you catching this? This is hilarious. This is banter, right? This is good dynamics. This is TV. This is what we're going to do.

25:19Okay, keep going.

25:19Ronnie Karam: Attachment issues are when, hold on, let me read this from the phone. Attachment issues are when the son only hangs out with the mother and won't talk to the dad about his future journey is a pants. So that's not great, Brooks. Brooks, Brooks, anal, anal or no, anal or no, anal on the first date. Go ahead. We're father and son. Come on, pretend I'm your mom.

25:43Ben Mandelker: Oh, dad, I'm going, I'm getting out of this, this interview session and going back to the current storyline. So Chloe, all these conversations I've realized, I don't know if the merger makes sense. Like I have to talk to mom like the FCC they can't know that I'm going to back out of this merger it's terrible she's like well the sooner you propose a merger that if you shouldn't propose a merger if you're like not confident in wanting a merger

26:08Ronnie Karam: I know I just told you I want to talk to her about it Chloe she's like oh my god grumpy he's like yeah you know I'm grumpy conglomerate she's like yeah that's like really hard good luck he's like oh my god it's so much pressure so we go to Georgia and Omar and Georgia's like, Oh my God, do you officially like the name club club for the club? He's like, yeah, she goes, yeah, cool. Cause like, I like when things are named what they are. Like when a shop is called shop, it's like the least try hard thing you can do.

26:46Ben Mandelker: It's, it's actually the most try hard thing you could do. It's like being so ironic that it's actually very try hard.

26:54Ronnie Karam: I still get confused when I pass French laundry. I still get confused. I don't understand it. Like, how can that be a popular restaurant? I just don't get it.

27:04Ben Mandelker: Or how about Chinese laundry, which is somehow shoes. How does this happen? Well, what the hell, you guys? It's confusing. Stop confusing people on purpose. And especially when it's bowling. Like, bowling is pretty specific. Bowl bowl would be good. You know, like, that works. Because, like, you know what it is. But club club? Club club. Yeah, guys, we're going to call it club club. Like, okay, great. Try less. I'm going to have a store called try less.

27:31Ronnie Karam: So she's showing him pictures.

27:32Ben Mandelker: So Club Club is a place where you go and get sandwiches, right?

27:34Ronnie Karam: No? Yeah. Club Club. It's a place only people with one extra large foot can go.

27:40Ben Mandelker: It's a place where only cavemen are allowed. Club Club.

27:45Ronnie Karam: So she shows pictures of her concept and stuff. And she's like, yeah, at this point, a Club Club. we're doing a trial run of what this club club might look like and act like and be like and feel like smell like just like what what is it is it like a club or is it a club it's both do you understand what i'm saying he's like yeah okay good this is a great meeting you want to whiteboard

28:08Ben Mandelker: yeah fuck yeah i do yeah let's just do this like brutalist club club idea let's put on the white board she's like you know i'm bringing like the idea like the creative like the team everything we're gonna like we're gonna like do a collab we should do a collab and like make the bowling balls look like some sort of like sexual bowling ball you know and like and omar's gonna come and he's gonna bring investors girl they're balls they're literally balls and they've got holes that you finger like there's nothing more sexual than a fucking bowling ball and then you throw the balls at big giant penis shaped things like you're already in the most sexual fucking sport

28:43Ronnie Karam: she's like how do we sexualize something with all phallic symbols and holes it'll come to me it'll come oh my god i just sexualized that sentence god you know like so much parties are just like reputation so like basically if it flops for some reason like for whatever reason that club club could ever possibly flop like that's gonna be like devastating to my career

29:08Ben Mandelker: like i may never ever be able to throw another rave in a deli featuring a dj ever again i mean this is it everything hangs on this moment he's like well if my friends tell me it's stupid then

29:20Ronnie Karam: like we'll have to come up with another idea she's like yeah so like there's huge steaks there's like huge steaks oh my god we should have a steakhouse called steak steak steak no no house house it's

29:31Ben Mandelker: it's less try hard wait what about steakhouse or house steak hmm i may be on to something

29:39Ronnie Karam: so Riley it's like the least try hard thing you could do

29:43Ben Mandelker: and vampires will never come which is great so Riley and Ariana are working out and afterwards they're talking and Riley is saying how the trip really stressed her out and she was in therapy and she's saying how like she's really disappointed in herself because she doesn't want to be like Charlie in 29 and getting into arguments with people you know and everything and Ariana's like well what are you supposed to do when there's like 1500 million and people coming at you, you know, and chiming in and not, I always say I should stop chiming in, but no matter what, in any situation, I should come and stand down next to you and not chime in.

30:15Ben Mandelker: I don't have an excuse. I really don't. Cause I'm sorry. I'm, I really love you. I was like, Oh, that's you. You resolved that. Okay.

30:24Ronnie Karam: I know Ariana is so sweet. She's just like, okay, it's resolved. And Riley saying, I, yeah, I went to therapy and then I was like, I just want to be better. Cause like, I want to be better with my issues and stuff. and I failed myself. She's like, no, you didn't. You didn't. You're great. You're amazing. We're friends forever. She's like, yeah. So then Ariana invites her back to her house to get ready because it's time for Georgia's Brutalist Bowl Party with sexualized bowling balls. Yeah, but first Charlie and Anwar are going to have a scene. So Charlie's like, yo, yo, yo, dad, father figure, what are you up to date?

31:01He's like, trading a little bit, having a career, doing things successful, you know, things you've never done in your entire life. I might even go to the gym. Again, not a foreign experience for you, skinny boy.

31:09Ronnie Karam: Yeah, well, I might actually go to the gym before I leave because, like, I got to go set up my new apartment and everything. Oh, look at you, new apartment. You know what that means for me? New bills, new bills for Charlie. Fun for me. Oh, yeah. I can't wait to pay for a new apartment for you, stupid little fuck. Wow, actually might, quote unquote, go to the gym, just like you actually might, quote unquote, get a job someday or actually, quote, do something with your life or actually, quote, get a good personality for once. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. I can't wait until I get a new bill for your couch.

31:41I've asked for pictures of it because I know it's the one place that you'll always be. By the way, have you, do you have my speaker yet? I've been waiting several weeks for you to give it back to me.

31:54Ronnie Karam: He's like, I'm so excited to be back in a luxury building. Oh, really? Well, don't forget they need a COI, otherwise they won't let you in, you stupid little idiot luxury building. Wow, that building is fun. Very, very fast, stupid building. If I get complaints from this building about letting losers in, I'm going to say, you did it to yourself, stupid. I told you it's a loser. You asked me to co-sign. I co-signed father of loser and they still accepted application. Ah, yes. You're excited about being back in luxury building. That's like how I was excited when I finally had you, my son, and I thought, oh, look, I'm finally an heir to leave everything to you.

32:29And then I realized, no, no, No, it will never happen. Okay, failure. It's what I said when your mother gave birth to your sister. I looked over at you and I said, finally, a luxury child.

32:42Turns out he was a loser child all along.

32:45Ben Mandelker: So Charlie's like, wow, 30s just like right around the corner. And that's stressful, you know, because like, where should I be in my life? And what should I be doing? And I know that I live a lifestyle that is relatively frowned upon by my dad. Not relatively, completely, completely frowned upon. Yeah. But at the end of the day, you do get nothing for nothing. Actually, you get a lot for nothing. You get a lot for nothing. I don't know who gets nothing for everything. Les Miserables has nothing on you, that's for sure. It's like, I believe he wants me to be happy. Oh, really? I want you to be happy?

33:13Is that a new word for employed? Is that a new word for employed now? Happy? You know, if you wrote Les Miserables, I believe the song would be called Masturbate in the House.

33:27It's funny that you quote Les Miserables because that was your first report card from preschool. That's all it said. Les Miserables. You know, I had a dream. More like, I dreamed a dream. Hold on one second. I'm still trying to work on my limb. I blocked out Les Miserables for so much of my life because it reminded me so much of you. Okay, I dreamed a dream. More like, I sat around on my stupid face. One thing I've always wanted to be ever since I've met you. On my own. Castle on a Cloud. More like Bong Making Cloud.

34:04Okay, well, let's leave my scene now. Let's just go to Georgia, because she's going to Melody Lanes, talking to a venue guy about sexualizing bowling balls. Even this girl, she wants to fuck bowling balls. She's doing more than you. Stupid.

34:17Ben Mandelker: Stupid person. So Georgia is like, okay, so it's not going to be a traditional event, bowling person. It's going to be like party vibes. So, like, normally, you know how your bowling alley is normally all fluorescent lights? Now it's going to be 85 % fluorescent light, and I'm going to have a red LED light in the corner. So get ready. I love that she's acting like this is such a new idea. They already have all the lighting there for this. It's called Moonlight Bowl. How many times do I have to say this before someone on this show hears me? It's making me crazy. She's acting like people going to go bowling and getting drunk while bowling is a new idea.

34:57Ronnie Karam: And I just love that she keeps saying things like, oh, my God, this is going to be amazing because there's going to be like bowling. But there's also going to be like dancing. No. You have people dancing on bowling lanes. What are you? They're going to die. People will throw bowling balls and they will hit them in the legs. Do you understand? And then they will break their legs and fall down. And then you'll probably still keep bowling because you'll have a bunch of drunk, drugged up kids in here throwing bowling balls at hookers on the ground. Yeah. Good. It's going to be a slaughter.

35:26Ben Mandelker: Brooks and Cade are at the apartment and Brooks is like, Cade, do you want to be a potential investor in my company? We're doing resort wear. And he's like, um, we're not going to mix business and relationship. I mean, so I'm just going to let you, you can just do this. And he's like, but like, why can't you just be like an air pod in my ear? It's like, um, I thought we talked about no more safety blankets. Yeah. They're so cute. I love Cade. I want to find a kid. He's so sweet. So then Sarah,

35:54Ronnie Karam: Seth and Meredith come in. He's like, Look who's here, mommy. You could probably tell because your umbilical cord was probably like lighting up when that elevator came closer to you. Am I right? All right. We're here. I saw Kate in the hallway. Asked him about anal. She says it's going great. Good for you, kid. Good for you. I'm so proud of you.

36:14Ben Mandelker: Well, we are here to do a test run of something, of you doing a pitch for the future merger of Meredith Marks and Brooks Marks. and Marks and Marks, Marks Brothers Daughters. And well, let's see your presentation. So you've stuck a lot of pictures on the wall and used up your monthly allowance on ink toner. So thank you for using that. Let's see what you have to say.

36:38Ronnie Karam: Hi, my name is Brooks Marks. I make jogging pants. I take jogging pants from China and put a ribbon on them that says Brooks Marks. But recently I've discovered something called light terry. It's like terry cloth, but it's light. so we call it light terry tm tm um hey wait wacky father needs to interrupt for one second i'm just saying the luxury sales yeah all offer wine and champagne and they they want their potential customers drunk so it's a little tip from an angel investor to an angel son because you are an angel okay okay hold on let me go to my sponsor vita tequila i love when he pulled out some Vita tequila.

37:19I was like, yes. I didn't even notice that. I am I'm failed as a podcaster. How did I not see that it was Vita tequila? Clark it!

37:32Ben Mandelker: So Brooks continues on. He's like, fashion, fabric, etc. Little toddlers need to grow up too. And Seth's like, wow. My brains are blown. Look at this. Two words. Popow. Wow. Wow. Huge, hilarious, amazing work, son.

37:51Ronnie Karam: Brooks Marks Individual Company, LLC,$100 ,000, okay? And you guys get 8 % equity. And Meredith's like, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. Stop, Bruxy, honey. In exchange for, I just want to understand something. I came here thinking you were going to be pitching a merger between Meredith Marks and Brooksie Toddler Marks. and now you're saying you want to have your own company so i'm just going to need a little

38:21Ben Mandelker: clarification on that um i apologize for like not communicating this sooner but i was in new jersey so i feel like that it's time for me to like take a risk and step back from meredith marx and grow my brand i'm thinking about after four years coming up with a new item so she's like well as a father i love that you're spreading your wings oh my god is there a burden here like gross

38:48Ronnie Karam: disgusting she's like i need some porn like she's not happy at all and seth is like oh well you had a business plan kid and let me tell you a business plan is like pornography you know when you see it and it just jerked off in my pants just blurted it all over myself we have a deal but i mean you

39:12Ben Mandelker: knew you'd have a deal because we were parents so brooks like hold on mother can you hold back i want to speak to you privately and by privately i mean just three feet away while dad lingers nearby okay i'm like really scared to not fully not work with you because like honestly it's just like a paper towel it's great it's absorbed right away dad's dad stop jerking off into my samples i've literally worked with you for like 10 years and like there's not been a single lemon i've cut without your hand on it also and i just i started your social media and like i i don't know what my relationship with my mom looks like when i'm not working with her i don't know when you learn so

39:56Ronnie Karam: many words but they are touching you will never be loved by your mother i don't want you to resent me. I don't want you to resent me. You're all grown up. I'm not grown up yet. Come to mama. Time for a feeding. I'm not gone, mom. Mom, you want to use this terry light? It's high absorption. She's like... Laughing through the tears. one white bean salad coming up it's like next i think i need to have children saying oh one thing at a time honey sath when do we tell them that toddlers can't have children so now we go to omar and charlie for their man meeting men talk privately about women okay so let's have our man meeting i'll

40:54Ben Mandelker: meet you at peachy's yeah so omar's like um peachy's in china day so omar is like um uh you know i didn't really get a chance to speak to you during the trip and stuff and but i typically like to deal with my issues and he's when he talks he swings his head around as if he's gonna like he's getting ready to do like a shot put or something he's gonna shot put his own head off his body and he's like you know what no i don't know you i just i don't know what you said and the language like speech for woman blah blah blah blah blah it's just a lump who doesn't move at all he's just like yeah is everyone on this show on some kind of a benzo so low his body is a lump but he like rotates his hands in his head he does like a weird look it's like his little suits yeah and his same freaking is like that one suit from like jose banks and he is just gonna wear it all the way down yeah it should take about one week so he's

41:52Ronnie Karam: like you know but like your language to a woman that i'm dating like that's obviously wrong and so we see a flashback to charlie being like you stupid delusional bitch if you were a man i would fucking hit you right now slap you in the fucking face so when we come back and charlie's like valid valid you know like i felt like i quick you know i felt disrespected quite and obviously my reaction like made it go crazy so like i accept my responsibility in the escalation certainly certainly so yeah just some adult words there i hope you can just chomp on those for a second

42:27Ben Mandelker: omar okay yeah he's like yeah i respect omar in every way i mean i think power to to anyone who could be such an adult you know and like i mean he's two years younger than me i mean are you kidding me i thought he was 10 years older than me mainly because of this suit you know but so then then they then i like to goes into this scene where they just like talk about business which is kind of funny now they become best friends he's like i'm sorry it's like yeah man

42:49Ronnie Karam: and he's like but I like crypto he's like yeah crypto right he's like yeah bro crap or like dj's we're like dj's together we're both like I like really respect what you've done in the space

42:59Ben Mandelker: bro Omar's like obviously like you know if I were to get if I were to do crypto now I'd probably do start like a very contrarian vc group and like you don't really need to be like that have like that much experience just like whiteboards like so many whiteboards and like whiteboards I would have pictures of crypto on it and the crypto would fund more whiteboards it's just like it would repeat itself. It's just like, bro, like this is the future, man.

43:23Ronnie Karam: And Charlie's like, yeah, like choosing a good project. Like it's like so many DGENs and he's like, yeah, you know, it's like if it's remotely of interest though, Charlie, like I'd highly recommend it because like there's so few people that have a backbone in this business. You have a backbone. Do you have one single suit that you can wear every day of your life? That's super important. You need to sleep in it. You need a suit that you can poop in and also run in and also be fine. Like just chilling in an elevator in. You have that.

43:52Ben Mandelker: Yeah. Commercials. Here comes one right now.

43:59Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Butterball Turkey. Butterball. Care hard. Cook easy. I was watching The Real Housewives of Orange County the other night, and I was thinking so much of this drama could have been solved with turkey. I think that about so many things. Exactly. Just get everyone around the table with a delicious meal. A turkey meal. That's how you bring people back together. What if it wasn't Thanksgiving? Being the Grand Dame isn't a one-day-a-year affair.

44:25Ben Mandelker: Every day is a chance to get down with turkey burgers, ground turkey, and more. Eating turkey is like watching Bravo. You can do it anytime, and the more you do it, the happier you are.

44:35Ronnie Karam: Yeah, Butterball Turkey is made for everyday moments that bring people together with ease, and it tastes great while doing it.

44:41Ben Mandelker: Do you think if a Butterball Turkey showed up at the Real Housewives of Rhode Island reunion, it could bring everyone back together? Maybe it would, girly. Maybe it would. I love a turkey.

44:51Ronnie Karam: Butterball simplifies cooking so you can focus on who you're cooking for. Butterball has turkey made for the way you care, whether you're cooking for your best friend or mending bridges with your frenemy. Butterball. Care hard, cook easy.

45:41Ben Mandelker: Omar's like you know crypto really attracts some like you know denizens of society you know what I mean I'm like yeah I'm looking at two of them I'm like where are they is this I thought this was for sure setting up Charlie getting caught at the crime scene of the crypto bros who are torturing the guy from Italy in Manhattan but no didn't get there I was waiting for some projects

46:02Ronnie Karam: because Charlie sounds like he's gonna pitch he's like yeah like I've been trying to come up with a good project like i thought of a coin called fart that's actually been done bro shit that's been done uh ass that's been done yeah you know charlie sorry buddy charlie's like yeah for sure i think

46:21Ben Mandelker: i'm like prone to like understanding the average crypto degenerate that i am to like understanding the average traditional finance investor because like obviously there's a lot of toxicity in any group of people especially with any degenerates you know financially so like there's scams you know and like that's all sort of bullshit right and i was like yeah oh oh sorry i since you brought up scams sorry to me oh george has called me twice uh i guess we can't talk about scams anymore

46:43Ronnie Karam: i thought it was so funny when they when he's like yeah like financially there's scams and the music goes and it like focuses on omar's face because he was i mean that's all bullshit and he goes uh yeah well george has called me like twice She goes, yeah, because George is like fiending for her mans. He's like, yeah, well, we're going to travel after this. We're going to be going to like Korea, Japan, all over like basic Asia, basic Asia touring. And he's like, yeah, wow, bro. That's a good trial and tribulation.

47:18Ben Mandelker: Living with a girl in your bed every day is difficult. You know, man, he's like, it's like, yeah, well, I love Georgia. This hopefully will be different. and i just can't wait to visit asia with her and come back with her from asia the two of us were trying together on the same flight from asia specifically singapore that would be a great

47:37Ronnie Karam: moment for us our general asia trip so then we go to brooks talking to amir on the phone and she's in france and they're gossiping about ava and she's like did she even apologize at least for not making your event like did she even apologize for making it your birthday party and he's like And we see a flashback to him talking to Ava. And he's like, I'm so sad you weren't there. She's like, yeah, I'm sorry. It's like the worst timing. Like, Trump came to town. So, like.

48:06Ben Mandelker: Well, the trip was from, like, Wednesday to Friday. So, I was, like, confused if, like, something more was going on. And she's like, oh, no. I mean, my fitting was supposed to be a Tuesday. But then they had to move it to, or maybe the event was Thursday and the fitting was on Friday. No, sorry. The fitting was on Thursday. The event was on Tuesday. No. So, if any of the event happened at the exact same time. I have to look. When did you guys have dinner? Thursday. That's when the event was. No, Friday. That's when the event was.

48:38Ronnie Karam: She's like, yeah, well. And he goes, yeah. She was like, I really need to get to this event for my career. And, like, I support careers. And Amir's like, um, for her career? Girl. Girl. I mean, I have the actual invite here. Girl, this is a pop-up in Montauk. Like, I can justify missing your friend's birthday for a store opening, but for a fucking pop-off, bitch. What? Like, I do think it was actually really fucked up that she did not show up your birthday.

49:09Ben Mandelker: Amira. I am, like, loving Amira. She just comes in, and she just sort of, like, she's saying everything that we're thinking. Now it's time to go to Club Club. Club Club. Club Club, what'd you say? She's coming for blood. yeah amir is taking no prisoners so um george and danny are getting ready omar comes with an

49:28Ronnie Karam: investor who i don't i'm just sorry i don't believe that's an investor who is that guy you guys can tell because i talk very low and i wear turtlenecks and glasses so and chains and i

49:42Ben Mandelker: have like a high pony so i mean i really i don't know what character actor this was but great work great work if this was like if this was sasha baron cohen if it was eric andre whoever you were in disguise you did you did it you infiltrated a bravo show no one even noticed you you're doing great yeah great work so george is all mad she's like um homar like why did you bring investors when it's just starting and no one's here like don't you know no one comes apart until an hour after it starts like what i'm like uh but you just to a party for marina marx and you're upset that ava showed up late so this party's gonna be lame

50:22Ronnie Karam: no matter what let's be honest so um riley and ariana are getting ready and they're just talking about how this is going to be a disaster like oh my god i've seen pictures and it's a little confusing riley's like yeah i hope she proves me wrong and then we go back and people are arriving the brooks has arrived chloe and marks chloe and brooks and gia and then we see um they're basically this opening which it's a bowling alley there's people hanging out at a bowling alley and so brooks is like love the vibe you're like totally making bowling chic and i love that like

50:58Ben Mandelker: brooks goes around the he like encounters a vending machine and he he acts like he i think he thinks that like georgia installed it there as part of like this like cool retro thing he's like oh look a vending machine you're in a bowling alley but it only takes quarters what are quarters

51:16Ronnie Karam: there's these like projections up above the lanes of like women's shadows dancing like they're at a club and briggs goes oh my god wow she goes yeah i made those projections like a year ago and he's like oh i thought there were women like in a cage dancing back there it's like no yes we're doing

51:33Ben Mandelker: the cell block tango at the

51:38but it was so funny that vending machine he's like yeah like stuff's in there but you have to

51:43Ronnie Karam: have something called quarters it's like where do i get that maybe they'll have it in cash and register he's like what's cash so they go up there and they're like can we do should we do like

51:53Ben Mandelker: a hundred dollars in quarters uh so then um people are arriving and ariana is like club club is really not giving club this is not a club and she's like look like the club club is kind of like the ariana bierman of fashion designers it's just not really giving what it's saying it's giving

52:15Ronnie Karam: yeah so charlie comes and he's asking about ava and brooks is like yeah i got a pedicure with ava And I was like, I'm so sad you weren't at my party. And she was like, the event was on Thursday, but like the fitting was on Thursday. But the party went from Wednesday to Friday to Saturday to Monday to I don't know. And she's like, she was making up bullshit excuses the whole time.

52:44Ben Mandelker: And Brooke's like, I really don't want to jeopardize my friendship with Ava in any way, because like it's really important that you have someone who's very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very. very bland in your life at all times. And she's that person for me. So if that means I have to buy some of my conflicting feelings, like so be it.

53:01Ronnie Karam: So then comes with her new man, hook.

53:09Sorry about your arm, sir. Sorry about your arm. Hey, did anyone see hook? He was at club club. No, I didn't see hook at club club.

53:17Ronnie Karam: Hey guys, I'm bringing a hook and I just want to make sure that there's no crocodiles with time timing watches on them he'll get really triggered how does he feel about

53:28Ben Mandelker: vending machines does he know about quarters they're apparently like a thing so um hudson and ariana are talking and um i don't know they're talking about ava and uh they're like well yeah she should have been there for your birthday yeah you should say something but i know you hate

53:44Ronnie Karam: confrontation so i'm like there's no way brooks is going to be like so ava are you because like this is new york so you need to learn to be listen as a new yorker let me tell you learn to be a new yorker this is your time this is your time i love the smell of piss i'm wearing it tonight you smell

53:58Ben Mandelker: it so new york yeah i understand new york so well so yeah ava like shows up behind and them and and so it's like awkward and brooke's like oh my god i have to say something well ava you know i like love you so much for some reason it's not your personality i don't really know what it is but maybe because you're pretty and which is why like talking to you now like it really makes me like so uncomfortable so yeah so they finally have to go have a little talk yeah he's like yeah like

54:29Ronnie Karam: what you're saying is different from what amir is saying it's like don't let like other people get in your head because like i mean i'm not even 100 sure she was invited but it was like in the hamptons so it had been like eight hours in the car from jersey shore to montauk so like technically yeah i could have come but like you know hair and makeup like i just didn't want to so and he's like wow okay good i'm so glad we talked she's like great yeah so basically just my birthday wasn't worth it exactly okay thanks that was like a hug that was like a hug

55:56Ben Mandelker: because she's like i decided not to butt in and i i kept i kept that promise to myself i did not butt in over a minor discussion like wow she's come full circle she's grown new york has made her full woman now so um they start to do some more bowling and then georgia has to sit down with with miguel the crypto investor and she's like so what do you think about club club it's just like it is what it is right it just says what it is it's on the nose he's like he's like well i have a question i mean i want the idea i want the vision i want the inspiration she's like um look around what do you not get fluorescent lighting check projections check balls that are like sexual and have condoms coming out of the little finger holes.

There's projections. There's happiness. There's people. Uptown. Downtown. Midtown. Do you understand what I'm saying? Downtown. Downtown.

58:06What an idea. Oh, my God. Club club. Yeah. Riley's like, yeah, I definitely wanted to be proven wrong. And I was right. So and Ariana's like, well, the food was good. And I said, oh, yeah, that's not her food. She's like, oh, sorry. And we just see the food and it's chicken tenders. Yeah. And Ava is like, you know, this friend group, we've definitely had our small little tiffs.

58:27Ben Mandelker: But at the end of the day, we can still, like, get together and support each other. And I love that. Like, no one wants to hear from you, Ava. but everyone's mad at you. And then she's, she pulls a strike and no one even pays attention. She said, anyone? No. Okay. So now we have, yay. That was a good show. It was a good season, but it's not over. Yes. We have this like fun kind of like, this is what happened the rest of the year for these kids in New York. So we see everyone doing things. We see Brooks. He's doing like a, a photo shoot. Shy's playing guitar. Dylan is shirtless and running around the city, working out, being hot.

59:01Ronnie Karam: I thought that was the only time they showed Dylan. Like Dylan's not even on this show, but they'll show him occasionally shirtless. But now he has a beard. So that's his growth.

59:09Ben Mandelker: He's really grown up. So Ariana and Hudson are walking down the street. And Ariana's like, my first summer in New York is like what I hoped it was going to be. It was like, forget about it. Am I right? I'm a real New Yorker now.

59:23Ronnie Karam: And her dog poops in the crosswalk. Someone's like, God damn it. What the fuck? Shut the fuck up, asshole. Okay, Perriana's made it. She's a New Yorker.

59:33Ben Mandelker: And then Brooks is like, moving to New York has changed my life entirely. Like, I'm not working for my mom anymore. And I do think cutting the cord, I think we cut the cord. And I might be hanging on by like a thread, but like, I cut it. I've grown. Yeah.

59:49Ronnie Karam: Now, instead of working for my mom, I'm just like working for myself with money my mom gave me. So it's like totally different.

59:56Ben Mandelker: friend and then we see a scene of like of brooks and seth going to like going to someone where seth is going to pretend to be a potential um investor and not the dad so seth is there and brooks is making like a pitch and seth is like i'm a potential investor and brooks is like dad it's like um and i'm the dad so then now it's fall and gia christian hudson and ariana are having lunch

1:00:25Ronnie Karam: and talking about how she has been with Christian for five years. Where's the ring? And she's like, maybe soon. He's like, maybe in like four years. And she's like, four years? That's like another decade.

1:00:38Ben Mandelker: Yeah. And then we go to Ava. She believes. Yep. Yes, exactly. And then Ava and Dash are in the car talking about Hook because they're dating. And Dame is like, so you guys talked about marriage yet? And she's like, he has to move it. Like he, he was like, she wants me to move in with him. And he's like, damn, when, when, when are you going to stay then? And she's like, well, I don't know. I'm going to go to your crib, whatever. It's like, no one cares. And then we go to Charlie driving and he's like, you know, I'm almost 30. And you know, that's something that's driving a lot of my decisions and behaviors is, uh, what's it like to skateboard around Manhattan when you're 30 instead of 29?

1:01:16Ben Mandelker: It's weird. Cut to Georgia squirting a water gun in her mouth.

1:01:23Ronnie Karam: This fucking girl. So Omar gets a text from Charlie and he's like, hey, really interested in consulting in this project. I'd love to continue helping. So now he's agreed to help raise some money for Omar's business. Whatever that business may be, whatever it is.

1:01:40Ben Mandelker: And then we find out that Georgia and Omar have like moved in together and they're like in this high rise and everything is great between them. And then we go to see Amira and Brooks at dinner. And she's saying that, like, they're talking about their relationships. And Brooks is saying that his relationship with Kate is just, like, really healthy. Doesn't feel like it deserves it. And she also feels like she's like, no, you do deserve it. Like, this is the genuously happy I've ever seen you. Unlike that bitch, Georgia. Hello. That's someone who's never had Red Robin.

1:02:13Ronnie Karam: Okay, so then we get to the good part. So Georgia and Omar are in Singapore. and we see pictures of her like jumping into the water and she's like yeah we're planning like this christmas trip to singapore like general asia because like omar doesn't have to work one week out of the air so we did it and then we get to brooks and charlie and uh they're got they're starting to gossip oh no brooks and ava so brooks goes georgia and omar broke up and like oh my god oh my god what happened so then we go back to amir and charlie and amir's like oh my god they're broken up heartbroken heartbroken google him google him and then mira's like well she did fat shame me on national television so that bitch can rot in hell you're so ridiculous

1:03:20Ronnie Karam: georgia's like oh my god life is so funny one day you're living in a ten thousand dollar a month apartment you're with a man you think you're gonna marry you're sexualizing bowling balls for him and then you get into one fight and he cuts you off financially and then it turns out that she's stranded in Singapore with like no way to get home. And Omar packed up all her shit and sent all her shit in boxes to Charlie's hallway. And we see a stack of these boxes that he just has to take in. Omar was like, you have to accept these boxes because I'm your boss now. So enjoy. What was this one disagreement?

1:03:57Ben Mandelker: Jesus. I would like to know. Yeah.

1:10:46Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Nature Raised Farms. There are so many complicated things on Bravo. Like opening the front door on Summer House. Or figuring out how to wear a Linfinity dress. Or understanding Tom Schwartz's purpose on the Valley. In a world full of confusing choices, thank goodness for Nature Raised Farms. They believe that food shouldn't be complicated. Especially chicken. But the freezer aisle often makes it that way. Too many options, too many additives, too many compromises. Do I like complicated chicken? No. No. Chicken should be fun. Complicated chicken, not fun. Chicken should meet a higher standard.

1:11:22And Nature Ray's Farms is free from gluten, dairy, and soy.

1:11:25Ronnie Karam: There are no seed oils and no artificial ingredients. Also, Nature Ray's Farms chicken is a good source of fiber and only between 8 to 12 grams of fat per serving dependent on the product. Chicken, that's just chicken. When food is that simple, there's a quiet joy in it. And we love quiet joy. Like the moment Erika Jayne puts down her microphone. Keep your life simple with your new favorite chicken. Nature Raised Farms Chicken. Because chicken shouldn't be complicated. Hey guys, it's Paige from Giggly Squad. Okay, can we all agree that hosting is so much fun? And I really do love it. Every weekend, it's come over for snacks, let's make dinner together, and somehow the second you put out a fruit platter, it seems that bugs show up before your friends do.

1:12:10This is why I have to have my Zeevo Flying Insect Trap. You plug it in and you let it do all the work. It's specially designed blue and UV light attracts the bugs you didn't know you had. And wow, did we have a lot. Like houseflies, fruit flies, gnats. And then with Zivo, bam. Next thing you know, the pests are caught in the sticky cartridge and away from your yummy treats. Without any mess or strong odors. The best part is the design is actually sleek and curved. So it hides the bugs it catches, keeping them out of sight. and when the cartridge is full, you just grab the no mess tab, throw it in the trash, pop in a new cartridge, and then you're done.

1:12:47No mess, no stress. So whether you're hosting a dinner party or spending an afternoon baking treats with all your friends and you want to focus on hosting and not constantly swatting at bugs, Zivo has you covered with 24-7 bug protection. Plug in a Zivo flying insect trap so you can work smarter, not harder, and actually enjoy your time at home. This is Hannah Berner, the co-host of Giggly Squad We could all just stay in bed scrolling through other people's vacations forever But where is the fun in that? The best memories come from stepping outside of your little bubble And being open to the unexpected And what better way to be open to the unexpected Than finally booking that trip to Europe You guys know I'm a Delta girly Every time I go I get my Delta headphones And when I fly to Europe Delta treats me like a queen And they'll treat you too I was always a little nervous about navigating a foreign country, but then I realized it's so important to grow and see different cultures and to put yourself in different situations, and Delta held my hand the whole time.

1:13:50Being away just helps you put life into perspective, and your little worries are not so bad. Travel really is the best way to discover something new about yourself and grow from the experience.
