#3085 RHOP S10E08 Part One: And Still I Lie(s)

0:07Encouraged What happens when there's so much that happens? What happens when there's so much that happens? Who cares what happens when there's so much that happens? Hello and welcome to What's What's Crappens? I'm Ronnie and that's Ben over there. Hello, Ben. Hi, Ronnie. How are you? I'm so good, guys. It is Thanksgiving week here in the United States. So we're just getting ready for, I mean, just a weekend. It's really not that long of a weekend, but a semi-long weekend. So we're excited about that. This Real Housewives of Potomac Day. It's also Amazon Live Day. 4 p.m. will be on Amazon Live.

0:50Okay. At 4 p.m. Pacific time. Find our link in bio over at our Instagram. It's going to be so fun. We're going to talk about holiday cookies, holiday cooking, and house lighting, home lighting in my house. I'm going to give some recommendations on some of the tools that I use for Thanksgiving cooking so listen in what do you think about that and then this week our schedule is pretty similar to normal we have our final dwell hello this week on Wondery Plus that will be the final maybe of the season maybe ever we don't know but we're going to be doing that later this week we've also got a bonus episode this week maybe a trailer trash of something coming up.

1:33I haven't decided. And we will be skipping Southern Charm this week. That's the only recap we're skipping because I'm not doing a recap on Thanksgiving. Okay. That is not how people want to celebrate Turkey. Okay. Those turkeys have already basted themselves, but we will talk about it the following week. Otherwise our schedule is the same. So how was your weekend, Ben? Weekend was great. I went to Dallas, Texas, as many of you know, because I recorded the Orange County Reunion from Dallas where I went to a board game convention. And I think, as I mentioned on Friday, a very different scene from BravoCon in virtually any way you could ever imagine.

2:14But I had fun. It was fun stepping into nerddom. And now I am back and I'm ready to step into Bravo and also Thanksgiving madness. I'm going to, when we're done recording today, I'm going to hop on my laptop and I'm going, I'm trying to get this out as quickly as possible. I'm trying to get out a, another NBD fancy newsletter. That's going to be, I'm calling it quote unquote low lift Thanksgiving, like things you can make that are pretty simple, but will look pretty cool for Thanksgiving. I don't know if I'll be able to succeed on that front. You know, it's like how, how low lift can like stuffing be, but I'm going to try.

2:53So keep an eye out for that. But that being said, it's been wonderful. Low left. It's a low left Thanksgiving. But I did love emerging from nerddom and coming back into Bravo via the great ambassador that is Real Housewives of Potomac. Because this episode cracked me up. Oh, my God. Especially the quarrel at the end. Cookie. Cookie. Cookie. Cookie. cookie came in and really cookied it up i mean wow geez i love that also like the controversy around cookie like is she a reliable narrator or not like should we believe cookie we find out that cookie has been the wizard of oz you know like the hand moving a lot of the show at least that's kind of what has been um insinuated and then we see cookie and they're just like they're holding cookie for good wicked cookie for good they're holding cookie back cookies you know waving those nails at people like oh you want a piece of me and yeah they're holding cookie back and damn it's cookie who knew i know and it's so funny because in the beginning at the very beginning of the episode as we're about to get to you know when uh when kiana tries to start some beef between monique and stacy and monique is like well i don't care chris can date whoever he wants i was like oh wow wow bravo really they really lost out on this storyline like they they tried to make it a thing and then it just fell flat on flat on its face little did we realize it would have a uh like it would have a rebirth through cookie so i'm incredibly excited to see where this goes my gosh i don't know if there's any color uh color purple fans out there but um sofia is what i'm getting from cookie like if they if they did a production of that and they cast cookie as the Oprah Winfrey role, I would die.

4:46It would be sold out. You know? I just fucking loved Cookie. I want to see Cookie in everything now. I want Cookie on every show. I need Cookie's messy ass on every show. And of course, she's like besties with Karen. You know, Karen is like bestie with the biggest troublemaker on the cast. When they said, the first time I met Cookie, okay, let's just go through the episode because there's so much. Okay, so we are still at Ashley's Pride Parade You know, I'm so it's so nice to have a show this week after Orange County that actually starts a pride parade. You know, I think we all as a country deserved this, you know?

5:26Yeah. Yeah, exactly. We sunset last week on Gretchen's homophobia and then the sun rises on Ashley. Ashley's Ash T.O.P. persona.

5:43Ash Top Ash Top Ash Top Good for her So Kierna's trying to be messy She's trying to get Kierna's doing whatever she can this season She's working on Overdrive And she's trying to target Stacey Little does she realize that Stacey has become the people's hero Despite her Slippery nature with the truth And so Kierna's like I'm so unique like Chris Samuels, your ex-husband, right? And Monique's like, yeah. She's like, oh yeah, because like, Stacey, you were dating. She was dating Chris, just so you know. And again, as we've mentioned about 45 times, it doesn't matter. Stacey was not friends with Monique.

6:22So like, there's nothing, there's nothing inherently messy about this situation. Yeah. And Stacey's like, wow. Kay, wow. And Wendy's like, yeah, wow. And Stacey goes, oh my God, she just met her. And so Stacey's like, oh my God, Stop. I know socially. Calm down, ladies. Calm down. Talk about inappropriateness. Talk about length. Talk about girth. Talk about drama. Chris Samuels is like, talk about a turkey. Give one to me.

6:57Talk about a fee. Talk about a fire. Talk about a foe. Talk about a thumb. Talk about a golden goose that's missing. Talk about that. Monique's like, yeah, we've been divorced two years. So I would expect that he would date. Kieran is like, oh, so you don't mind? Okay, well, I guess I didn't know then. And Wendy's like, yeah, nice try. I was messy. And Kieran is like, I don't care what Stacey says. She likes people to think she's not that girl. But I know she's that girl. Isn't it good if you're that girl? Isn't that a good thing? Like when people say, oh, she's that girl. Isn't that a compliment?

7:38It depends. Cause if you're like that girl who looks out at the highway every day from her, her condo, that might not be good for some people. For some people, maybe it is cool. I don't know. So yeah, but like when people say that girl. Yeah. Like if people say like, let's just say somebody had once said, I'm not saying they did, but let's say somebody said, Oh, Ronnie, you're that bitch that I always thought that was a compliment, but now I'm starting to rethink my friendship with somebody said, Hey, wow, you're that bitch. I thought it was nice, but now Kieran is making me think it's not nice.

8:11Well, I think that the, that is context specific. Cause you, you know, like you want to be that bitch. Hey girlfriend, I'm that bitch. I'm like, oh, I bought my first coffee. But then, um, uh, but then I guess if you, you could contextually be like, I'm not that girl, you know, it's like a different, I think it's just whatever the, that is. tiana's like stacy is not that that she's she's not it she's that so monique's like well he's my ex for a reason i don't want him anymore so i don't care what he does with his life as long as he's as long as she's good with the children um which i'm just so happy to be back she's so happy to be back she is like having the best time she's smiling she does seem actually she does seem lighter and she seems a bit more i don't know it's hard to describe but she she's just like oh whatever she seems actually like a normal person not a real housewife so she's like not being that that is weird she is more normal person now yeah isn't she wearing like a tank top or something like she's like more chill and normal but you know what she was never um i think just her history on the show and the way that she left the show there was like such a dark cloud about that whole thing a dark cloud over it but she was always really chill and fun until she was you know until she wasn't like until she was activated until you put an umbrella in her hand you know but the thing is that like she was also she was a little bit presentational because she was always pushing her essential oils and and stuff like that and now she's just kind of like yeah i'm just hanging out so uh tia is talking and she's like oh you guys talk about my bottom my gosh miss gizelle And Giselle's like, oh, I love it.

9:59It wasn't always there. And they're just like joking and bantering about that, that booty and stuff like that. And touching it. And, you know, they're having fun time at the gay bar, etc. And then... And so Stacey's turned on by Ashtop. She's like, wow, there's something that's just appealing about you. And now she's like, okay, okay. Well, I want to clear something up, Stacey. So, listen, I'm really happy for you to do your business. But I was a little caught off guard with your cannabis launch because, you know, the name being Yoruba, the name being in Yoruba, that felt a little weird to me as someone who's friends with Nigerians.

10:36So I'd like to speak up. As someone who likes to start shrine fights amongst Nigerians, I was just like a little offended about your name being in Yoruba. Well, I'm still offended that you sold kangaroo meat, Ashtop. So maybe you should sit this one out. You're dressed like Ken Rock right now, Ashtop. Personally. I'm offended that you're pretending to be a drag queen when you're still like hot girling it up she's like I'm a hot girl but I also have a mustache that's not drag that's not drag kinging come on ashtop so Stacy says that the name of her her company is Shio and she was like what is that da she named it a Nigerian name a Nigerian name ma and she sounds like are you Nigerian and she goes well I have nigerian heritage i sometimes receive an email from a nigerian prince so i think that qualifies i found out that in nigeria there's only one person left with my last name and if i just give them my bank account number i'm gonna inherit 50 million dollars well i took a dna test uh gna no actual dna and i've spoken about this with you all with all of you i love that she took a fucking dna test this is so kelly from real housewives county oh i can say whatever i want i'm black they're like you what are you gonna say you're black she's like i took a 23 and me i'm three percent black well and it's like i mean there's i mean there's a there's a perfectly fine chance that stacy has like a significantly higher percentage of black of like nigerian in her than and Kelly Dodd has blackness.

12:23But that being said, they all are very much giving her the side eye. And at one point coming up, someone says, you know, there's a difference between ancestry versus, you know, basically immediate family. But Stacey's like, whatever, I'm going to go with it. Shio it is. Well, it was so funny because Wendy's like, well, as your friend, if you're going to name it a Yoruba name, pronounce it correctly, because you're not pronouncing it correctly. And it just all starts cracking up. And Tia's like, it's Shio. And Stacey goes, oh, thank you for that. I love my Nigerian sisters correcting me. Thank you so much.

13:02We can't claim Stacey. Stacey has paid for a boyfriend in Nigeria. The boyfriends pay us. We don't do that nonsense. Well, that's another instance of her not being genuine. And Angel's like, yeah, it is giving money grab a little bit. is nigerian weed like flying off the shelves how is it a money grab that's the part i don't get is are people like oh my god that's a nigerian name i'm getting that that is the best weed yeah it's not like happy i guess happy eddie before the scandal was doing nicely but it's not like this was taking over american pop culture so i i just i don't look at shio or shior and say um wow, what a happy Eddie ripoff.

13:49Like, it's just not, I don't know. But also with Angel, I'm just constantly rolling my eyes because we're entering into week 35 of her complaining about the comments about her face that she altered herself on. Oh my God, Jesus Christ. She won't shut up about that. It's so hilarious. And then everything she says, okay, she's like, it's giving money grab. I don't understand that part. And then she goes, and Stacey, what about the social justice component of your business excuse me can i just sell some weed why do i have to sell weed for children with cancer like can i just sell the weed the social justice component is i make you feel better after a shitty day in this shitty world how about that well what was funny is that she goes and what about the social justice component of your business is there one because and she just cuts her off because anyway i just want to say everyone thank Thank you for coming.

14:42I just like, they just were like, I am not talking about some social justice. I'm just selling weed. I'm just, I'm trying to cash in on my window that I'm here. Okay. I'm trying to leave a legacy for Arabella. Arabella. Angel's like, by the way, at the board game convention, there was a game called Arabella. And I internally shouted it out in my head. And so, are you just trying to get your game piece to stand up straight and keep it sash you know keep it sash straight i did think it was weird that the board game went off and started swimming laps in front of me i was like arabella good for you okay guys we can't let arabella know that her parents are back together okay keep this secret till the end of the game that that's kind of a fun game the board game is that there is a child who doesn't realize her parents are divorcing and you have to keep up appearances and if you can make it to the end without a child realizing you've won the game.

15:43It's dark, but low-key, kind of good. Yeah, for kids with divorced parents who might be fucking in a pantry somewhere. There are so many people who are going through divorces listening right now that are like, this is not funny what you guys are talking about. Why are you mocking our very serious family situation right now? Okay, your parents are going through a divorce. Your game piece is the mom. Your game piece is the dad. So you have to convince the child who's a better parent and who gets custody. It's like, it just gets darker and darker. There is actually something real. There is actually something really kind of funny.

16:20Like there is something about like a board, a board game where like you are vying. A lot of board games are like very political. It's like, I'm the USA, I'm Russia and we're doing world domination. But what if the board game was really about divorced parents trying to win over their children with, you know, gifts and vacations and, like, you have to do the homework. Like, there's something actually kind of, like, really hilarious about that. Darkly hilarious. We'll get to writing, Game Boy. You guys, guess what? I'm signing off and I'm making a board game right now. It's called Arabella Love Me!

16:59Arabella and the Divorce. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial.

17:09so stacy just interrupts angel and she's like excuse me don't be rude don't be rude you're rude you're saying that she has a money grab business and asking her if there's a social justice component angel and stacy's like no i'm done and angel's like um we'll revisit it don't you worry every episode until the end of the season we will revisit this we'll revisit it and when we do you'll also finally get to know me it's like oh great thanks angel yeah and i can't wait to finally get to know you yeah angel's board game catfish or real photo angel's card game you play for three hours and at the end we'll finally get to know her and then you actually don't get to know her at all when you get to the end the final round is angel confronting you about the fact that you laughed while people were confronting her about her catfish photo.

18:07I would like to look through her Uber reviews and like her one stars and just be like, he didn't try to get to know me. So we had a whole ride from the mall to my home. He knows not one thing about. I'm giving this restaurant two stars while the food was actually quite good and the service was excellent. I felt like ultimately my waiter didn't really get to know me, but I'm looking forward to coming back so that way he can really get to know me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry to interrupt you guys. Ma 'am, may I take your order? I'm sorry, but you'll get to know me. You'll know when you know me. Okay. Ma 'am, there's a, tonight's specials is that we have a beautiful angel hair pasta with a fresh, spring pea pasta with walnuts.

18:59And does that pasta, does it have a social justice component?

19:05Yeah, then don't bring it over here. You'll get to know me. Don't worry. Once you get to know me, you'll see that that's important to me. So Angel's like, well, Stacey is totally dismissive of me. Okay, girl, if you don't care about classy, I'll care about being classy for us both. so um just pointing out being classy isn't really confronting somebody over their business at a pride party either so well i wonder i'm gonna disagree with everything angel says just because i'm i'm officially annoyed at this point i'm gonna give angel one um one thing here which is that i would not be surprised if there was some scene where uh stacy had told angel i'm going to uh sell weed but i also want to have a social justice component to it and angel is basically saying like um so where's this whole where's this whole social justice thing that you said was going to be there that you were going to profit off of i would not be surprised if that was a larger context but i don't remember seeing a scene like that and they definitely didn't i don't think they've shown one.

20:12So if that is the case, they've definitely made Angel look like such a womp womp at this party. And she's probably like, I was just trying to call her out. So I'm going to like, I am going to say that I will keep a tab open on that for the reunion. And if she comes back and says that, then we'll be like, okay, okay, I will give a little bit of vindication to Angel on that front. You see what I'm saying? Yeah, she's bored me too much for vindication. Like, just close the open tab. I don't even care about it. I'll give it to her. Okay. I'll give it to her. I'll rescind all my comments. Okay. Just edit all that.

20:44Well, we'll, we'll, we'll give it to her. Well, if it comes up, we'll give it to her. I just want, I guess it's, it's not a tab. I'm, I'm putting a flag in there. I'm flagging this moment for the audience to be like, I'm burning the flag. That, that could, that could happen. How dare you in front of Arabella? So Tia's like, Oh, so stressful. Who has it coming out that I could have? And, uh, so now there's a float. Okay. Because there's a DNA float, which is, you know, some leggings and some brain issues i'm still not sure what this business is so wendy's like yeah and thank god for wendy because wendy's like yeah i don't understand how this is the gna float okay because that started as a fashion brand and so we see a flashback to gna clothing and um then wendy's saying and then it turned us into us doing a woebecs on the rooftop so what exactly is gna at this point is it a tax fund is it a tax fund and how do i get on that i know right um so wendy's yeah she's it's she brings up very good questions because we really i think it was last week when we looked up there's not even a website for jna there's no yeah there's no entity we don't understand what it is so anyway they get on this float and uh the float is going and ashley's like um well when i first came out i told my grandma after church then and you know i had a crush on this girl and she didn't get mad and then she embraced me with open arms and then i didn't tell anyone and she basically tells her not very interesting story about having a crush on a girl when she was little and then like circling back to it when she was 14 and then not talking about it ever on tv until suddenly um actually no never mind i should say she did talk about it a few years ago so i was gonna well yeah she said that her and michael had threesomes with women and stuff and she's she's always liked women and stuff yeah she's always she's she's always been proudly by at least since she's been on this show so ashley is telling kira and i hey if you feel inspired to kiss me you can't just putting it out there and now she's like yeah now my grandma's like who you dating now who you're dating and i'm like grandma so they are dancing they're having fun the float is like shaking there's like one shot of like the tire of the flow going and now they uh go they go have a they grab a bite to eat so they all gather around and there's like this big long table and Giselle's like well I want to say Monique I didn't expect to see you and Monique is like yeah I really wasn't sure what to expect you know because I haven't seen any of you guys in five years it's so funny because they're acting like it's been 15 or 20 years since they've seen Monique like oh my god so much has changed so your child that your child's in business school now congratulations oh and your daughter oh I love seeing you know her candidacy for to be the you know Wyoming state controller but like the kids are just five years older but like allowing the state comptroller you know to see one of your children replace sherry berry as the elevator leader in the state is really something else it's been amazing i say this really because a friend of mine that i went to college with her name is brooke and um one of our one of our one of our listeners one of our dear listeners rt who lives in maryland where this show takes place she informed me that my friend brooke is now the maryland state controller and i'm like how does that happen that's weird it's weird to think of like someone like my age that i last time i remember last time i thought of brooke it was like we're having like lunch in the student center or something like that and now she's a state controller so whenever we talk about the show i think about brooke because it's a maryland show and i think about brooke being a state controller, comptroller, comptroller, comptroller, comptroller.

24:24I love that job because it's very stressful. It's just like getting people free tickets to things. Yeah. It's like, Hey, do you have a ticket to the state fair, Brooke? She's like, Oh yeah, I got it. I'm the comptroller. Also, by the way, thank you everyone for voting for Brooke. We love, I had no idea she was running for anything, but I'm glad that people voted for her. Cause Brooke is a, she's a lovely gal. She really was great. um so Giselle's like wow Monique you know I didn't know what to expect but you're so refreshing your energy your vibe I didn't even have to bring a bodyguard today yeah and she's like oh thank you thank you same to you Giselle you're still terrifying and terrible clothes and there's something comforting about that good to see you yes uh yes thank you uh thank you um someone just like well last time we saw you your life was different which is my way of saying what happened what's going on what's the update with quiz what's going on she goes oh you mean with my ex it's like no uh chris from the bachelor of course your ex so chris christy okay chris christy what's going on is he still upset over that bridge i mean what the hell who do you think i'm talking about yes your husband and she's like because it looked like you had a good relationship and she's like oh well we had a good image we had a good image i don't know that you had a good image and someone posted on reddit um the picture the gif of her folding chris's underwear i totally forgot i love that when she just lifted his underwear and they were it was like she was making a poster for science fair you know it's huge it was it was enormous so uh we see some of their life and wendy's like whoa damn monique i mean talk about having an image you know wendy and eddie well if the allegedly allegedly so Monique is like yeah and you know I wasn't being loved properly and I wish somebody would have told me because you know whoever you marry that person could actually get worse do you need someone to tell you that did you I think that that's just have you seen Kramer versus Kramer yeah does anybody say wow I married somebody and let me tell you they get better every day I've never heard it literally never heard it people get divorced not because one of them gets better actually actually i should say that that's actually sometimes that does happen well sometimes someone does get better but like yeah that's you know things get worse so i think the only the only way people get better after you marry them is if they had a cold on your wedding day that's the only way well it's like it's like uh what people say on wedding days may this be the worst day of your life so um till death do you part they wouldn't have to say that if it just got better you know i mean the whole thing about vows is like okay look at this hottie next to you they're gonna be ugly soon there's gonna be hair coming out of their nose out of their ears out of their butt crack and you still have to stay with them until you're both dead okay are you gonna do it if you do it we'll give you new silverware and you know people will chip in for your honeymoon how about it kids she uh she says the first time that she thought she couldn't do it anymore was uh when her daughter was six months old.

27:39So it's been a while. I always think about the two of them having sex. Like I literally cannot imagine being under him. I'd be like pressed flat into the mattress. He's like a giant. It's like the memory foam when you get up is just like two craters where his hands were and then like your little body shape where you were just crushed down, you know? It takes a while for the memory to unmemory itself. It's like the end of The Naked Gun when Ricardo Montalblanc falls off the stadium and then marching band walks all over him.

28:14So she's like, well, I wasn't being loved properly. And, you know, they talk about our kids and how big they are. And she's like, I get emotional when I talk about my kids. I mean, Melani, she's so artsy. Chase, he's a bank now. I mean, God, he's done so much. He's done so much. They named a game after him. He's such an old soul. one person runs and the other person runs after them i mean he's really done well he's really done well monique's like you remember when we went to france and she goes you know you know giselle you know me and you we've always been like bumping heads but you said some real stuff to me then and you were talking about how when you're with a man and that has had the the limelight and then you start stepping into your own and things become about you and that can cause tension Giselle's like totally Giselle doesn't remember saying that She's like oh I will take credit For whatever I said back Six or seven years ago Was that when I said I hated your five homes And your stupid fish tank In your kitchen Or I'll take the credit though Thank you Angel's like guys A wag is talking Be quiet A wag is talking So Giselle's Baby wag Baby wag Have the floor baby wag And Giselle's like Well I remember all of it Her being embarrassed About the things that Chris Would say to her publicly and she was always working overtime to make him appreciate her and she knew one day that Monique would wake up and say you know what I don't want to live like this anymore you might be asking what was the straw that broke the camel's back in your marriage I'm like I don't know if it was a straw I think it was just like like I think Chris getting on a camel would break the camel's back yeah Monique's like actually we went on vacation and Chris tried to ride a camel and broke his back and I actually left him.

30:03I was so destroyed over that broken donkey.

30:09Disclaimer, this is not fat shaming. This is just that Chris is an enormous human. He's not fat. He's huge. It's not about that. He's a gigantic football player. Yeah, he's a wall of a man. With the deepest voice we've ever heard on Bravo. I actually have to say, I love hearing his voice. No, just his voice. Me too. It's like deep and velvety. Yeah. I'm getting on the camel. I think that's why it takes so long to divorce someone like Chris, even when they're just being bossy and stuff. Like, why aren't you doing the chores? I'm like, say it again. Just say it again. I loved when he would talk.

30:43I loved it so much. He's like, is my underwear ready yet? That's just a big man. I remember when he was on, wasn't that like back when Trump was running or something years ago and everyone was always saying, build the wall And we were like, just have Chris stand there. Save us all some tax money. He's just such a big man. So she is talking about how when Chris wanted something, he was always very nice. But then once he got what he wanted, he would go back to being an asshole. And so she put the theory to the test. And he was being really nice to her. So she thought, okay, I'll give him some ass.

31:27and then the next day he rolled over and it was nothing and she felt like a piece of meat once again well listen i don't doubt that that happened but there had to be i don't i don't take that as an excuse for getting married because everybody would get divorced if that was the case everybody's nice for a little ass that's marriage right yeah but he must have been he must he was a jerk to her yeah i'm about to say this man was an asshole i think even if she just listed everything from the show we would still be cheering for her because she needed to get out of there i'm glad she got out of there yeah i'm like i i i feel like it's yeah i feel like she i feel like there's probably actually more to the story but um i yeah i want to know the more is what i'm saying and yeah that's what you're saying and so uh she said the next morning she looked at him and said you will never enter me again like whoa not enter ah she's like yeah i said enter i said enter and wendy does the clack the fan clack thing or she's like she's like hold on now so monique's like yeah and i said no looking back and actually you guys added years onto my marriage because i realized like you saved me so much time fighting with him because i was always fighting with you and they all start laughing.

32:43That's like the most positive way to look at your time on Housewives. So now going from Monique and her football man, we now go to Angel with her football man as they go and they look at a house. So, but I will say that it does seem like Bobby, I mean, I don't know. I actually never saw two, I saw like, I feel like I saw standard cracks with Monique and Chris, but it was like the typical real Housewives stuff. It seems like bobby and angel in a good place but i'm like because that part of me wants to be like angel keep your eyes and ears open this is this is one wag is giving you the warning signs right now keep you know but it seems like bobby's okay so they go looking at this bobby's hot as fuck first of all bobby's so hot and he seems nice yeah he's got and i trust a person who eats on camera you know he like fully ate on camera remember when he took his whole napkin and wiped his face like this he's also we saw did you see bobby at bravo con no when we when we first show what okay so one thing that happened at bravo con as we may have mentioned is that when we first got there there was like a mix-up with our passes and everything and so we got sent down to the talent entrance which is where all the bravo liberties were coming in and out of and as we got there angel and bobby came out of the door and uh bobby i mean like you may you may maybe got distracted because we had just arrived we literally had just arrived but like wow bobby i was busy calling the police saying where the fuck are our passes how dare you bring me to las vegas and then treat me like this well i have to say i didn't even notice angel because we were with our friend erica um erica cobb go check out our podcast and so erica knows angel in fact i think angel's on erica's podcast this week and so erica the only reason why i knew it was angel is because erica ran up to her i was like oh my god they hugged and then i saw bobby right behind her but it just goes to show like it's hard to i guess it's just like hard to get a get a get a grasp on angel's face it's just between the picture and in person and tv something was it like morphing was it like morphing in a different well i also didn't get i didn't get to see a lot of flick through the filters on the phone.

34:56I was like, those kitty cat ears. But I also didn't get to see a lot of her. Wait a minute, Angel's smiling, and then it's like, and a big tongue comes out. A tongue comes out. But also Erica hugged her, so because she hugged her, it obscured Angel's face. And then by that point, I was looking at Bobby. Well, he's hot. So another thing I'll say is that this is very rare that they go look at a house on Housewives that's actually a good house. They look at so many shitty, ugly houses on this show. it's almost as bad as house hunters. This house was amazing. I thought, I love, it was amazing. I thought this was beautiful.

35:31It was actually so amazing. I was like, why doesn't Bravo do some sort of like house hunters for their Bravo liberties? You know, they should do that. That's a good idea. You know? Yeah. Um, so, but then again, I remember when they tried to have Reza do an interior design show and watch for half an hour. He's like, you could put a staircase here and like, asher turf here and it would look beautiful. And then we watched a whole half an hour and the people just chose not to do anything at all. He's like, you know what? I'm going to put a lawn, but on your wall. Do you remember? He planted grass on a wall.

36:04They were like, the wall is now crumbling and moldy. Thank you, sir. Thanks for coming over. It's so Persian. That was also, I think, a Maryland-based episode. Commercials. Here comes one right now.

36:22Anyway, they look around this house. It's beautiful. I love how as soon as they get to the house, Bobby just runs to go to the bathroom. I was like, okay. Yeah. I don't know. Is that, are you allowed to use a bathroom in a house that you're looking at? Is that? Yes. Okay. I guess that's when I was looking for houses. My sister kept toilet paper in her purse because they never have toilet paper in the houses. I guess to make you not use the bathroom, but she always had to go pee and she was always looking with me. So she brought, yeah, we's I've peed in many a toilet. How are you going to know you want to live there?

36:57You need to pee in the toilet, see how it flushes. And then you also need to turn on the shower and see how the water pressure is very important. That's exactly why every house I looked at, I always took a shower. Exactly. It's important to be naked in the living room, walk around and see if anybody sees you through the windows.

37:17It's important to see if, you know, you could have like, how will this house do with your family? That's why I always would invite my family over and we'd stay there for a week. You know, it was so hot was how like every room they went into, they had to like check to see if Bobby could clear the doorframe. And like he kept on like it always the doorframe would always hit him in like the forehead. And I was like, oh, God, Bobby is so tall, so tall and so leggy. Yeah. I don't even have a leg thing, but when he sat down in that chair and crossed his legs and those thighs, it was... It was like watching a tree just bend over another tree.

37:57I was like, wow. It was like two cellos just crossing each other. It was amazing. Two cellos. So she's talking a lot. This is an angel scene, so I can't even believe we've talked this long. But yeah, she talks a lot. And I'm just like, oh. But the house was very pretty. And then she talks about how home hunting is difficult. But the last time they did this for like four years. So they've got time. And I would hate to be their realtor. So they check out the house. It's very nice. And then they sit down to gossip, which is why they're really there. She's like, you know, I wanted to talk about Wine and Weed Wednesdays, you know, because I could see my friends chilling out here.

38:40And he's like, OK, let's talk about your friends. So she's like, you know, let's talk about Giselle calling me a catfish. And then I just started booing. I know. I couldn't believe it. Really? You're still on this? Because, you know, I just, I felt a little bit blindsided. But like the other thing is, you know, Wendy, it was very unnecessary. Her just trying to say what she's saying to you is that you're a catfish. You know, I was just very disappointed in Wendy because she threw sauce on what Giselle was trying to say. I'm like, girl, you're only having this. okay you may or may not be you know right or wrong but it's too late to be having this epiphany now it's way too late especially because you like you've confronted people about this like four times by now okay you just cannot it's enough and you can't be mad at the sauce that was put on it it's like a vegetarian screaming at ketchup about a hamburger you know be mad at the beef be mad yeah you provided the all beef patty okay like we all saw the photo okay you just cannot keep digging in about you cannot make yourself this big of a victim about the photo that you did to yourself yeah so now she's going to try a second war over it with wendy because wendy was agreeing with giselle so he's like well this is very unsettling you know and you have a right to feel that way but just remember you're still friends and at the end of the day you get nothing for nothing and is it really that serious and i was like bobby's over it bobby's like i've heard about this you've talked about this in six houses that we've gone to look at it's like ma 'am i would rather bonk my head on 12 more door jams than listen to this picture again about this picture again okay so now we go to um an absolutely fucking god-awful fashion show it's one of the worst we've sat through in a while and that is the gna fashion show otherwise known as giselle and ashley going to lunch who dresses you too jesus and i'm not even a fashion gay but even i'm like good lord and and ash ashley's in some sort of like what was a green dress like a weird like ripple it looked like um kale that sort of had the shape of a kale leaf at the bottom and she comes and she's wearing heels that she's like not comfortable in so she's like sort of teetering over she's teetering in them like a weird frankenstein thing she comes like into the restaurant so she sits down with i'm sorry to interrupt you i think giselle's outfit that i'm talking about was the one she wore to the later event that was it looked like she got toilet papered she looked like she was playing a mummy or something where it was like a sheet going kind of tied over her boobs and then around the, I don't know.

41:24There's some crazy fashions on this show. So Tia and Kierna join and Ashley's asking if they're recovered from the Pride parade and Kierna's saying that Pride wore her down to the ground. What a surprise. Kierna got tired. Only Kierna. Kierna's review for Pride. I'm tired. I was just tired. So Ashley's like, you guys can't hang. I was hanging out until three in the morning and Tia's like, oh, just meeting Grace the other day. I mean, oh, I'm obsessed with her. What a wonderful child. Can I have her? Can you have my children, please? My children have parties with teenagers throwing up red stuff by the bedside.

42:04Give me Grace any day. Well, she couldn't remember your name, so she wanted to call you English Muffin. Oh, she can. I would love that. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho. English Muffin. So Giselle's like, well, you know why. Saturday is where I let y 'all know I'm a bad bitch with 10 million downloads. Yeah, so they hit the 10 million download milestone on Reasonably Shady. So that's pretty cool. Yeah, it is very cool. She's saying how they've been nominated for an NAACP Image Award. And they're also one of Black FX Top Podcast. And so they just want to celebrate. So, you know, that's awesome. Congratulations.

42:48congratulations so kiana is like i have to say something when i was leaving friday cookie called me and i'm like hey have you talked to karen da da da da da da da da da and she's like what does da da da mean i'm like oh no the da da da is actually not it's you're supposed to it's like it insinuates that there's more to it and then cookie was like why do you keep saying da da da okay get to the point da okay well i'm tired this story has made me tired okay you can do it you can do it kiana finish the paragraph anyway so kiana says that when she's talking to cookie cookie was like hold on chris samuels is calling me on the other line so chris samuels call speaks to cookie and tells cookie that monique was trash talking him and um and so cookie then relays this to kierna and kierna's like no that did not happen so then cookie's like well why am i hearing that he had bad sex and treated her like a piece of meat you know and so apparently this is all 20 minutes of that scene we had just you know described of them having uh lunch after pride so it's a little confusing so for in summary what it means is that they had lunch and after lunch 20 minutes later k called cookie probably to be messy but it turns out that stacy beat her to the punch by calling chris first and then chris called cookie to be like what the fuck and now cookie's telling Kay, like, what the fuck?

44:08Yeah, so she's like, Stacy did it. Stacy's the one who called Chris, you guys. And Tia's like, oh, no way. And wait a minute, so wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. And they're like literally in shock that Stacy would do this. I was shocked too. I mean, damn, you call him immediately as you're leaving the place to be like, yeah, your ex-wife showed up and talked shit about you. That's not cool. But I still think Kay might've called Cookie and told her, and now they're gonna pin it on Stacy. although Stacy's so slippery I have to be very careful with standing up for Stacy just because I like her on the show because she probably did this yeah she probably did I mean she's caught in like a bald faced lie in this episode and um like Chris calling to say why were why was Monique saying that we had bad sex means that he did find out something it could have been a producer though it could have been a producer it was probably Stacy It was probably Stacey.

45:05So Giselle's like, wait a minute. We had a sister moment with Monique who I've had bodyguards against for five years. But how could she interrupt our sisterhood? And then she calls Chris and Giselle's like, and Tia points out, yeah. And he's picking up immediately. Like what's going on here? And she's like, well, I don't. Oh, go ahead. I just want to say, look, I'm team Monique with Monique and Chris, 100%. but realistically speaking Stacey literally met Monique an hour beforehand and she has a social she has a friendship with Chris Samuels it's not the craziest thing that she calls up Chris Samuels and be like yo I just met your ex and she was saying this like it's it just it's I understand you want to be loyal to your TV show but like in the world of life if you know someone if you're like that's her her entry into this relationship is through Chris.

46:02It's not that crazy. I'm not saying I agree with it. I'm just saying it's not crazy, crazy, crazy that Stacey would call the person that she already knows and says, Hey, I just met your wife. And just so you know, just so you know, she's saying this about you. Or that Chris knew that they were going to be shooting with Monique that day anyway, because he would probably, you know, it's like they have a shooting schedule, you know? Yeah. And he knew and called Stacey and was like, so what'd she say? It's like, Oh, you know, she was just saying, you know, in your marriage, like they asked her when she realized when she was done and she said when she had to put a do not enter sign on her vajayjay because you only used her for sex and she felt like a piece of yeah which still wouldn't be great I mean really in any case any way it happens not great it's not great it's not it's like if I were Stacey I would not have done it because it's like yes you don't know Monique but like you're in this clearly she's gonna be on the show I'm sorry it's called a sisterhood okay it's a sisterhood this is a sisterhood it's a sisterhood surviving Monique Monique Oh yeah just to quote just to quote Married to Medicine This is a sisterhood Oh I was doing Heather Gay sisterhood No I'm just bringing it all back But they should have a sisterhood off We are sisters quad How could you do this to me year after year So Giselle's like well i don't care whether or not you're having sex with chris he shouldn't know anything of what we discussed you're you're talking to me and i'm calling michael darby i'm like but it's like i don't i'm surprised i'm actually defending stacy on this because at first i was like oh that's shady but now i like now that's sort of talked it out i'm actually like again i just you've talked yourself out of being mad at stacy yeah that's the best no i think stacy's in the wrong on this one i have to say i think stacy's in the wrong if this is true she she should i I don't think she should have said it.

47:57I'm just saying that their level of outrage, they keep on trying to make it seem like Stacey's violated girl code by even talking to Chris before she even knew Monique. And it's like, I don't think that's a violation of girl code. And I just think in this case, I would not have done it. I think it's tacky and I think it's not smart. But the fact that she did it is not as big of a girl code violation as they're making it out to be because she doesn't have any relationship with Monique whatsoever. So I'm just saying like, like they're acting, they're acting. You can't compare, you can't compare it to like your Giselle, to her relationship with Michael Darby or to Ashley, because that's like a deep relationship that goes back many years.

48:39Well, I will defend Stacey because I love Stacey. Okay. Just let me, I can't defend her. If she did this, if she did this, she's in the wrong, but I will say if we're going to be talking about sisterhood and this and that, if cookie is so in the sisterhood and she's like up, like she's like the best in the sisterhood and she's going to be the, the judge and the arbiter of everybody's sisterhood levels, then why would anybody be calling her for gossip in the first place? Why would the man's first call be to cookie? Cause he knows she's going to talk shit and spill the tea. So if we're having a sisterhood off, I don't think cookie is going to win this one because the man is calling her first to find that information.

49:17And cookie called Kierna, by the way, I think I said that Kierna called cookie, but Kierna said that cookie called her. So Cookie's calling to get dirt as well. I mean, look, it should not have been. Stacey should not have done it. I'm just saying. Okay. They're going to nail her to the cross. I'm not sure this is a cross nailing. I think this is a, like, Stacey, that was wrong moment. Yeah, but it's all adding up. You know, it's like in our dwell hello this week. It all adds up. It's all starting to add up with Stacey where it's like one thing and then another thing. And some of the things I think are, you know, not even real, but it's just in their evidence packet.

49:56It just keeps adding up against Stacey, you know. So this was not a good move on her part. Like, if you know all these girls are coming for you and trying to get something on you all season, you've already got the thing that you kind of lied about, the weed thing. And then, you know, then you name your weed a Nigerian name. And then, you know, it's just all starting to add up against Stacey. but why is it that every time something adds up against stacy it makes me like her more i just might do i know entertaining when she when she does these things like if she called him chris it's not right but like to quote one thing it's not right but it's okay because it's like i don't know i've like it amuses me so much yeah so um giselle's like well i don't care whether or not you're having sex with chris ah but he should know anything about what we discussed Well, you only don't care that she's having sex with Chris now because you have cared about it for the past three or four weeks that you've been trying to make it a storyline.

50:52And so now she's got another thing. So now they're saying Cookie's going to be at the GNA party. And so Ashley's like, oh, Cookie wants to sing like a canary, baby. She does. Cookie is ready. And actually, I actually would like Cookie just to sing just in general. I feel like she probably has a very good voice. she probably has a nice like sort of smoky voice i think should be lovely singer congratulations you've reached the end of part one of a two-part recap for part two go look for the recap that says part two see you over there suckers watch what crappens would like to thank its premium sponsors ain't no thing like alison king it's always a party on alison block Our way is the Amber way.
