It's a lot of going live this evening, but right now we are doing The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 10, Episode 11.

3:19Leases up! Giddy up! Yes. And we open up at Tia's house, and she's gathering things together, and she's like, okay, Papa, do you want to help me take these items to the car? And she's just basically asking her son to bring stuff to the car because she will be hosting some sort of polo event for the ladies to go to. Big horse season. Big horse season on Sunday nights. We've got the last horse thing they did where they watched horses run around in a circle. Today they're going to watch horses do the polo thing. On Mary do Medicine we had the polo party, whatever the hell that was. Oh, yeah. Two weeks ago.

3:59Lots of horses, guys. It's big. It's big. Like Bravo wants you to get a horse. Salt Lake City talking about buying horses. Everybody is into horses. Vanderpump Rules, that girl has a horse named Oreo. Huge horse season. I think Bravo this season was like, guys, guess what we're doing to close out 2025? We're talking horses. Every fucking show. Does NBCU just raise horses and they need to sell some? What's happening? Well, I do think that NBC is the network partner for the Kentucky Derby. so that all makes sense now but yeah horses are like so in horses are very on trend for bravo they're like big right yeah yeah horses are like amazing so uh yeah she's going to be doing this uh this polo event thing and um her brother is joining uh deiji and uh she tells us my company ddr's for the bees sponsors an all-women's polo team which is quite special and i felt like why not do a polo event in nigeria my cousin played polo and i like to wear a polo shirt every now and then and it was a major part of my social scene and it's still there and still like a massive thing to do so you have to like you know you know like you have proper serious polo players then i wasn't one of them of course yeah and then she's talking to her brother and she's like are you excited to meet my friends and please do not embarrass me you need to worry about your friends embarrassing you you're taking real housewives to a work event have we ever seen that yes who does that because this is like a work event because her sotheby's place or whatever a real estate place sponsors this team i would not take a bunch of housewives to a work event i mean i would because i work for watch what crappens but yeah well in general i wouldn't suggest it yeah yeah like you know it's it's always a bit of a risk when you do that yes using the horses of things you never know making up lies on you bringing up shade i would love stacy as like a uh as like a polo commentator talk about horses talk about competition talk about a small ball being hit by a mallet talk about penises talk about length talk about girth talk about luxury so um uh yeah so tia tells us that her brother uh lives in long island and so she invited him and that they you know they were very close growing up and she talks about like her family and she has one brother who's really older and they're younger small like they that's smaller they're younger and smaller no but they um they grew up close in age so they're very close Yeah, so now People are arriving And hi-hi-hi-hing each other on the Sprinter van And Kieran is like Tia, you need to lay down the law with the ladies Because they do not know how to act sometimes And she's like, oh, but guess what We want it to be We want it to be exciting So little shade, little shade Don't snatch any ponytails And so Ashley's like, it's so nice We're all here, until you start shit Ashley you're gonna start shit in about two seconds as you always do you know which I mean I guess is her job yeah she's gonna start shit with a horse she'll be like so I hear that um like you haven't been totally honest about like your polo skills the horse will be like uh excuse me ma 'am so Tia's like hey guys I just want to say thank you for coming you'll meet a lot of my colleagues and my clients future former clients which is why I was like I cannot afford to have some nonsense Nonsense going on.

7:41I'm like, so you invite Ashley, but not Stacey. I mean, I understand Tia and Stacey don't get along. But, like, let's be honest. Like, there's going to be nonsense. I was actually shocked that there wasn't more nonsense at the polo match. Well, yeah, and I get that you're going to one job, but you're also going to that job while working another job where nonsense is your job. So to be like, hey, guys, let's have a work scene that's about no nonsense. No. What are we supposed to watch? Horses fucking run around? No, that's not what this show is. Horse run around, lady. That's not what I want to see.

8:14No one's paying you for this. So she, of course, didn't invite Stacey because I was kicked out of an event for the very first time in my life. So we see a cut back to that where Stacey's like, toodledoo, toodledoo. You know, I've heard so much about the lies on the web and now I'm in the web. I'm like Sandra Bullock in 1996, caught in the web. And Jazzy's like, well, to be honest, I'm going to need some solid proof that that girl that my girl's a liar. OK. And now she says, well, so did you know that she wasn't going to come to your wedding until she knew that Wendy and I were coming to your wedding?

8:52Which, by the way, I don't think that's like. I'm sorry, maybe I'm going to just like step into we'll find a way to make an excuse for Stacey. but if it's like hey there's this random wedding for a co-worker that's like we have to fly to i don't remember where it was was it like in missouri or something like that i don't know they had to fly to it texas it was in texas like my co-worker who i get along with but like i don't know anyone who's gonna be there i don't know if i'm gonna go oh you guys are gonna go okay cool i'll go too i don't think that's a crazy thought process to have yeah i don't either but you know It's Ashley, so she's going to try and make a fight out of anything.

9:30And so Jazzy's like, well, do you think that's true? Because she told me she had to move a lot of things around in order to be there. And now she's like, okay, okay, babe. Well, okay, you'll see. You'll see what evil Stacey is really like. Ashley, would you be going to this polo thing if there weren't cameras there? Would anybody be going anywhere on this show if there weren't cameras there? No. Yeah, exactly. How many people do you think showed up to your nebulous GNA branded events just because they actually wanted to go to it? No, people go because there's cameras. That's the name of the game.

10:06The job. Yeah. No one was like offering to go to your sportswear slash brain issues. It doesn't even make sense without there being cameras there. Okay. So Giselle's like, well, no shade to the horses. But I'm not really here for all of this. I'm here for the food and the champagne. So now we get there and it's all like old white guys. Yeah. And they're kind of like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And Wendy's like, Tia, you're bringing the color. Tia brought the color, child. You brought the color. Because all these Mitch McConnells are just like, whoa, look at this. It's a bunch of Mitch McConnells. There are a lot.

10:49Right when you think there's a shortage of kind of turtle-faced white guys. here they are will there ever be a shortage you just keep making them

11:03so um wendy's like you know what i'm gonna enjoy this event because this is what ashley's gonna find the second husband i mean her words not mine it's but it's you know they could have been our words i mean it's true ashley is like she has a lady boner she's like wow look at all these mitch mcconnell types wow there's a decrepit old golem here's my number nothing turns me on like an old male waddle. She's ready to rumble. Hey, is that Lindsey Graham? Yes. Lady Graham, Lady Graham. So Giselle's like, we should, because they're going to sing the black, well, they're going to sing the national anthem.

11:41So Giselle's like, we should sing the black national anthem. Can we do that? And Ashley's like, is there a black national anthem? Ashley asked that? It's in the notes. Wow. No, I'm just saying that's just, that's wild. So they sang it and Tia's like, we have the opportunity to sing National Anthem. And I was like, okay, well, we've got two singers. We've got Angel, who's an opera trained singer, which I did not know that about Angel. And then we see her, she's like, you know, I guess I would have known that if we had taken the time to get to know Angel. So I apologize. as Angel. Yeah, Ben, take some time to get to know Angel and you would know.

12:20She's like a very mediocre opera singer. Her voice sounded nice, but it did not sound like a trained opera singer voice. You know? Jesse Abnorman. That's what it is. It was very airy. I don't know how to say it. Beverly Unstills. Going through my opera singers. I'm like, Renee, lots of phlegm-ing in the throat. Okay guys Running dry here Angel Parv Shut the fuck up T Parvarnati Carol No Finesse I'm out I don't really know that many This is This is a tough area for us We're not the most intelligent gays We're not like We're not like glitterati gays Where we know opera singers and stuff That is a shame though wouldn't it be great to know opera singers my favorite opera scene my favorite opera performance of all time was when um parvati parvati why am i is you know that girl from survivor yes she ruined how i say parati parati her stupid name ruined my pronunciation so anyway um it also ruined parvati cheese and she's really messed with my head that lady but my favorite opera performance was when Pavarotti got sick and couldn't perform at the Grandies.

13:45The Grandies. The Grammys. What's wrong with me? I'm not stoned. And Aretha was there and like, I can do Nessun Dorma. I'll do it. And they're like, really? You don't need rehearsal or anything? She's like, no. I know it. And she came out there. I still have it on my iTunes. It was amazing. I'll still cry. I will still cry. You know, Placido Domingo's daughter, I think it was his daughter, used what daughter's still like oh it's placido domingo what now his like daughter or like stepdaughter or some sort of like some child that was related to placido domingo used to live in my apartment building and i would cook we had a pool on the top it's very la there was a pool on top of the building and she'd be up there tanning and she'd be like oh my father you know he has always been traveling the world and she would just she would just complain about placido domingo to like, you just hear her.

14:39Cause you'd always be talking to someone on a lounge chair, but you just, you'd sit there and you'd like, if I cared about Placido Domingo tea, it would have been the best thing in the world. But of course I didn't. So I retained none of it. But it was like every single day you'd go up there. She'd be like, oh, you know, my father, he like doesn't even pay attention to me. Cause you know, like he's opera singer and you know, it's like, oh really? I love that. I love that Placido Domingo tea than you would ever expect. I love that he ignored his children. He's like, whatever. I have some opera to sing.

15:02Raise yourself. this is the same pool where lala and jasmine from the valley once went there and talked shit about um faith so like i got all the gossip between faith and plasito domingo that pool had all the good well that's why plasito domingo doesn't respect his daughter he went to visit her one time it's and he's like you're spending my money on this on a pool with lala bad-mouthing faith they never really gave faith a chance let me tell you something no one really ever took the time to get to know what a world what a world that these concepts my daughter will do a jack knife she's about to do a jack knife she's like i don't know how to do a jackknife father loser my daughter is a loser he hated his daughter i don't blame him she sounds like a monster imagine just heard it wrong imagine if i just heard it wrong all these years and i'm it was like just a regular like a regular lady who had issues with her dad but for some reason i just had this concept that was positive domingo well it sounds like something i would do a few weeks ago i was out to dinner um with our friend hannah and her husband and we were at this place in studio city and i was like oh look david foster's here that's weird i mean it was a nice restaurant but i was like david foster who's that lady he's with she's so age-appropriate it's so weird and then the whole time the husband was like oh my god David Foster's here David Foster's here and he's telling Hannah and Hannah's like I don't think that's David Foster sure enough they brought a candle that they brought like a firework candle you know one of those that's like a Roman candle it's like and it was like a lot of light in his face and I was like that is not David Foster I'm so sorry but we spent an hour and a half I literally talked shit about David Foster I was like that guy's a monster you should have seen how he was to his wife on that show and then he married some child from American Idol.

16:53I don't trust him. Never trust him. Oh, and I heard him on the Smart List podcast. What a jerk. What a jerk claiming to make everything in the world, not even giving Whitney credit for anything. You know, it's just going off. And then it was just some innocent guy, you know, and you know why? Because he had old man bottle face like we're seeing at this event right now where you just don't after after a while, you just don't know. I also I just want to say I had a moment where I got scared because I was I looked it up and Placido Domingo has no daughters. Is that true? Oh, no. But then, but I looked up Placido Domingo's granddaughter and she came right on up, I have to say.

17:32A grandfather's allowed to ignore you? He's not your parents. I don't know. Honestly, I don't know if he ignored her. I was just making that up. It was like that kind of gossip. But it wasn't like, I just don't remember the details because who remembers Placido Domingo details like that? It's just like, I just remember that there was someone gay. Which is the point. We don't know. And we probably just ruined a perfectly good family relationship. I know. Plus he does on his way to Italy right now listening to Crappens catching up on his SLC recaps. And he's like, how dare you? I'm leaving you a voice, not because I'm in the air.

18:03You're cut off from my money, you stupid, stupid. Yeah. She also had huge boobs. I have to say. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial.

18:18So now we're going back to this party thing. And she's like, yeah, we've got Angel, who's a trained singer. And then we've got Ashley, who is a singer. And so two weeks ago, Tia, Giselle, Angel, Ashley, and Kiana are all hanging out. And Tia's like, by the way, there's an opportunity to sing the national anthem. Angel, I wanted to know if you would like to sing the national anthem that day. And she was like, as a football wife, I've had the privilege of being able to see the national anthem so many times. So, yes, that's very sweet of you. And now she's like, well, you didn't consider me. I did consider you.

18:56And I still consider you. A terrible singer. So now. Only group songs, Ashley. So they are going to sing Lift Every Voice and Sing. And he's like, oh, lovely. well I knew it wasn't going to be a Grammy Award performance but it would be a performance nonetheless so the ladies get introduced and they sing like four of them sing together like Giselle, Angel, Ashley and Kiana and Wendy's like acting as a conductor and the crowd's like wow look at this and they're all like you know everyone's very happy and the guys are like wow Dreamgirls my favorite musical and I'm telling you I'm not going that's for sure I'm going nowhere yeah so it definitely like the old white guys were definitely like I love you in Wicked

19:53looks different without the nails so Tia's like well I had my back turned to the people I don't know what their faces were like and I don't know if they were singing to the song but if they knew the words and I don't know the words but I'm going to learn the words because I never want to be left out of that again and i mean we look beautiful damn it right so it starts and tia gets to throw in the ball and um now k is spraying herself with perfume and um she's like this is good it smells like outside i don't want to smell like the outside whenever bueller comes in from the outside i'm like why does the outside make you smell like this but maybe it smelled like fresh cut lawn which fresh cut lawn smells nice right you're not like i don't want to smell like it you don't like fcl fresh cut lawn hi i wore a sweater today to smell like that like you smell like damp grass well not you want damp grass you want you want fresh damp when it's cut because it's it's wet it's water it's a water-based thing grass grass puree grass am i right guys so angel's like it smells good smells very good um and karen's like yeah she's karen's hot right now she's hot so then the guy the the uh managing broker from sotheby's comes by and he invites the women to go stomp the divots say i'll go do it it's all very pretty woman like but wendy is like confounded by this process she's like i mean why are we stomping this shit on the field why are we walking out on the shit this is stupid i think about it it's kind of a hilarious con that that the polo the polo industry has has performed on all these people to make them go walk amongst the shit to fix their field yeah i really did like though when she when she goes we have to stop the divots don't y 'all pay people for this like she's just at this she's just at the cheapest match of all time so um she's not liking it because she's wearing white okay and giselle's like make sure you don't step in the poop y 'all make sure uh so then jazzy is telling ashley oh ashley so first of all thank you for coming to my wedding roll the clips roll the clips of my wedding it was huge televised event televised event roll the clips okay uh let's give it about 10 minutes to get through those clips pretty big event okay because you know it did set me back a little bit when it was even a question on if stacy's coming to the wedding because it wouldn't have been a question if it if it was her wedding and ashley yeah she would have shown up to her own wedding of course yeah well we think we'd like to think as she says yeah i mean you wouldn't even blinked because you know it was interesting because dace and i actually had like a really good time at your wedding i'm like yeah because you weren't trying to start shit with her because giselle wasn't there yeah and she's like and there's like glimpses of her and um you know i think that we could be friends but then she goes and does this other stuff that just compounds the bad stuff and Jazzy's like well I've never questioned my relationship with Stacy but now I'm going to because Ashley told me to at a polo match okay I'm sorry the number of like little white lies that Stacy tells those I think don't even compare to anything that Karen has done over the years nor do they compare to like Mia and Ashley never held those women to the same sort of you know accountability that she is with Stacy.

23:22Maybe part of it's just like freshman hazing. I mean, they needled them for sure, and they would like give them shit. But like... They showed up to Karen's house as pizza men, remember? When they dressed up. I know that they poke holes in Karen's stories, and they fuck with Karen, but like there's kind of a sense with Stacy that they're almost like trying to like, not ice her out, but there's like a... They're like bothered by Stacey in a way that they were like bemused by Karen if you know what I'm saying yeah you know maybe Karen got more respect just because she's an OG but I mean I feel like they call people out on their lies all the time I just think it's getting tiring it's like move it along you know like let's move it along now we're we're on episode 11 and we're still talking about this and it's just not compelling enough like Stacey's lies aren't compelling enough I think to to make this much storyline but they're gonna still keep going for it you know so god bless them um our job is to support them so stacy uh we see a flashback back to where stacy and jazzy had lunch a couple months ago and stacy's like i don't think i've been a very good friend to you and i pride myself on my friendships and i love you and so jazzy's like yeah well there's no way that stacy told these girls that she wasn't coming to my wedding or anything like that i just don't believe it but she's starting to she is starting to believe it they're starting to turn her with all the zero evidence that they have yeah exactly and now she's like well i just hope she doesn't do anything to violate your trust i really do which means that she's going to spring a trap for stacy to step in and make stacy look bad i i think that's what's going to happen next so fall right into it and she will they see such a trap we're into she'll just she'll just fall right into it uh so now have to like you don't even have to hide like you know like the in the the net in the jungle where they put like you know some sort of like like like some berries or whatever in it for like they don't have to she'll be like look at this beautiful netting it's absolutely gorgeous let me get a closer look oh i'm caught in the net now well this is unfortunate you don't even have to put cheese in the trap she'll just walk right up to the trap and be like what a glorious plate you could use it for cheese look it could go right here ow look at the craft work in this look at the metallurgy that they've done here look at the way they've crafted these bars to be shaped ever so gently oh it closed on my finger but how beautifully it did so um so now um tia is asking everybody if they had fun and ashley's like well i think we're getting back to a good place, which means it's time for me to start some shit.

26:11Angel, something you had mentioned to us is that you felt like we weren't really making an effort to include you into the group. Everyone is dying to hear what Angel thinks. Angel, as the person that the audience is most focused on right now, please say something. So Angel's just nodding like, yeah, I did say that. It would have been nice if you got to know me. Yeah, because we have a flashback to two weeks ago of Angel saying, Well, I think that not knowing me and not knowing you ladies, the olive branch, just a quick text, would have made me feel a little bit more included. I don't even remember what the context of that flashback was.

26:47It's just funny that yet again, they have new unerraned footage of Angel wanting to be known. If you really wanted to get to know me, you would have sent a text. It's like, oh, God, Angel. Oh, Angel. And so Ashley's going to turn it on her now. So she's like, remember when you said you wanted to get to know us? Well, this would have been a good opportunity. Maybe you could have spent a little more time with other ladies. And they're like, oh, so you're saying that she didn't do that today. She's like, she didn't do it today. And Angel's like, oh, okay. Well, I hear you. And that will happen. That's definitely going to happen.

27:25I will. Next time we're at a polo match, I will concentrate more on getting to know you, Ashley. Yeah. so I guess it sounds like Angel just pretty much hung out with Kierna the whole time it sounds like Kierna is really the the ball and chain in this situation right like it seems like when Kierna is around Angel feels like she just can't really talk to other people and so she just sort of like lingers around her and then there people on the internet are calling them sadness and madness from inside out and so I mean it's interesting like if you think about it like theoretically you know if you are new to a group is it is the onus on the people who are already in the group to get to know the newbie to make overtures to make them feel welcome or is it on the new person to like go above and beyond to like go and meet the it's like it's like you're the new pledge or you're the new new new pledge in the sorority and like you have to go and meet your new older sisters i think probably it's a mixture of both but um you know in this case like Like you're the newbie and you got to I think you got to do a little bit more of the legwork than they have to do with the legwork.

28:34Just in terms of like housewives politics. Yeah, she's just too sensitive because when she has tried to do the legwork and they start dissing her every time, then she's like, well, why would I want to make an effort with these women who are always trying to start some mess with me, even in my own home? Like, why would I? I'll just hang out with my friend, which makes sense. Which in the real world makes sense. Yeah. Like you're on a housewife show and they're supposed to be giving you some mess. So, yeah, I just think it just boils down to, like, you're not really ready for this, you know? You need more time in an oven or a different batter, maybe a different batter before you even go in the oven.

29:08You need just a different chef. Maybe. Maybe a different, like, foil wrapper thing. You're not a baked product. Sometimes you just need to accept that you're not a baked product, you know? You're like a cantaloupe. That's it. You just stay in the cantaloupe section. Yeah. All this time we thought you were cookie batter. Turns out you're a smoothie. sorry yeah no one's gonna bake you so um she is saying you know this one side interaction with these ladies i mean if they want me to have my hat in my hand i mean please please i mean it's just not who i am and it's you know it was a great time and she ended it on a sour note which i agree with too it's like we finally had a day where angel's just enjoying everybody and everybody's just being fine and ashley has to make it she has to other her again so like while angel sucks Ashley also makes life really uncomfortable for people.

30:01And then it's like, why are you uncomfortable, babe? Maybe you're not a girl's girl. Yeah. And you know, the other thing is, I'm sorry, I'm just still thinking about this angel thing is that for her, like if you're, if you're also, if you've been on this show a long time, there's always new people and it probably is exhausting to have to like put the energy to get to know someone new and then they're not going to be there a whole season or they probably just can smell it in the water that she's going to be a one season housewife most likely and they're like what's even the point and the thing that sucks for Angel is that they don't need to recruit her for any sort of ruin war all the all the uh incumbents are kind of getting along and the people who are on the out it's like Kieran is on the out Stacey's sort of on the outs but no one needs to like gather any people for their personal armies it's not like Giselle needs to recruit an ally to go against Karen right now.

30:55So they're all kind of sitting pretty. They don't need to get to know her. They don't need to use her in any proxy wars. So they're like, yeah, no proxy wars are happening. Yeah. So Angel's trying to be positive. And she's like, well, listen, I'm very excited to spend some one on time with everybody, even the non-wags. And, you know, look, even Miss Wendy. Even Wendy. We're going to be all right, Wendy. Yeah, we're going to be all right. And now Jazzy goes, are you going to be all right, Wendy? And Wendy's just like, she's just like still trying to clean off her shoes. Like, what the fuck? What are divots?

31:26I know. I think what drives me nuts about Angel is the way she's always proposing that this will happen at some point. Like, well, you're going to get to know me. Don't you worry. I'm going to have some one-on-one time. It's going to happen. I'm like, this is like episode 11, lady. Yeah. You should get like, you better get to some one-on-ones already. Well, listen, nothing bonds people like favors needed. And so now Angel needs people to pack up boxes for her. Why? I don't know, because she's rich. So normally rich people are like, pack my boxes for me, employees, or hired help. But for whatever reason, Angel has just gathered some Amazon boxes and the ladies to do it for her.

32:12So she has some ladies over and she is packing her boxes. And at first I was very confused because the music was so dramatic. It shows like a packing box and it's like, dun, dun, dun. And then it shows like a shirt thrown over a box. It's like, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. But it's because Angel is getting kicked out of her house. Yes. She's like, she's talking to Bobby and she's like, I just can't believe it that we're going back to Colorado. And he's like, yeah, this sucks. And she goes, yeah, it does suck having to be out of here early. I mean, unexpectedly, I was so pissed off. I know you're mad too.

32:45It's annoying. And he's like, yeah, I was really mad. And then I thought about it. He's like, I do want to shit in my own toilet. I'm like, what's you're in a mansion, right? Is this like, what is this like a hole in the floor over here? I'm sure that's pretty good. This guy is so cute, but his manners, it's like, babe, we're on TV. I just sometimes I think on these shows, like, what would I do if that was my husband? I'm like, babe, could you not say shit in my own toilet on TV? God. The expression is sleep in your own bed. but sure shit in your own toilet's fine too um yeah i just want to drop a log in my own forest you know what i mean babe like okay geez we're trying to pass off that we're super classy people on real housewives of potomac okay like no shots of bobby eating or um talking about where he wants to shit please just note to the producers so um we get the story from angel she's like well you No, long story short, Maryland really didn't ask to spend a lot of time with me, which I found extremely offensive.

33:47So we're going to have to leave. No, she says that they had a rental because they just got a rental so they could look for a home, which, as we saw, was her storyline. And when we saw her look at that last house, which was really nice, she got the ladies together and told them that they had found a house. So I'm not sure what happened because I thought they were going to move into that house. So I guess that was just all fake. And she's like, well, the homeowners thought we were going to be gone for a certain period of time. And then there was a miscommunication on dates. And so now we have to be out of here.

34:21Yeah. And then we see a text from the homeowners on June 26th. That's at 542 a.m. that says, hi, Angel. We hope you're having a great stay. I am sending this a little in advance. but there is our checkout information for VP for you. Check out at 12 PM on the first. We have loved having you in the meantime, please feel free to reach out with anything you need. So, um, why you got to check out with the VP? I don't want to check out with that eyeliner motherfucker.

34:56Criticizing me for no reason. He's like, go back to your own country. I'm like, God damn it. Oh, to talk to the VP. is there anyone else i could talk to hello we've come in the government Vanderpump i didn't get it at first i didn't get it it's like a monday the vice president is so nosy he's even involved in airbnbs he's like you are not welcome here um so this is this is fascinating and like as soon as we see this unfurl you know i don't know what your thought was but my first thought was as soon as giselle finds out about this this angel's done for because giselle is gonna be a mess and she's gonna be on her ass and giselle has just been waiting to just like pounce on angel ever since the freaking catfish thing that angel could not get over and continues to not get over yeah so like when this i start to wonder was did she did she um book this airbnb because she thought production would be over by the first or was she confused did they did they say hey we're doing the cast trip in colorado so she thought okay um we go to colorado and then we end in colorado um so therefore we don't have to rent this whole thing also why did they not hire their own movers which is what you were kind of saying before a lot of things were running through my mind i'm how do they know that the the tricky part i think giselle has it right later when she says oh they thought that production was going to last this long so they only came here to shoot the show i think that's probably what it is but the thing that is a little weird is that they didn't know that they had to leave by this date and it's it sounds like they didn't request more time either so that's what's super weird about it if she's actually like i've never heard i had to be out this month it's just so confusing commercials here comes one right now

36:47Well, I actually have a conspiracy theory, which far be it for me to ever defend Angel. But part of me says production told them, production knew that they wanted to go to Colorado for their big cast trip, like the main cast trip. Why, though? Because you don't just like, well, I think that production decided the cast trip this year will be in Colorado. These people are from Colorado. that's what they they can use this as an example of not example as like a hook for going to Colorado they'll do like some sort of Colorado type cast trip I think production already wanted that to happen and then my conspiracy is production says what if we tell Angel that we only they show they only need their house for this long and then they do it and this way it creates this situation and it tees up the Colorado thing really well and it's a great kind of you know it's a great controversy to go into the last act of the season and now she can't be like oh we only booked it we only booked it this long because production told us to book it this long or production arranged for it like she can't out production so she just looks like kind of an idiot for booking this house and not understanding dates and or it just makes her look shady so i would not be surprised if she actually got a little set up by production on this one but even a week before wouldn't she know she has to move out like don't you think she would be i guess this was june 26th i just it just seems weird that she's not like well it looks like we still got all these events to shoot do i need another month here i mean because this text from the landlady it's fishy sounds like you know you're supposed to leave bye have fun know you're packed up already so have fun you know it doesn't sound like she asked for more time so i don't know why is the landlady also texting so early in the morning yeah that that landly that land well here's one thing we know that landlady runs like she gets her ass up and she goes running because that is an early early text it's just whitner from southern charm yeah waking up at 4 30 um yeah either way I guess the thing is, like, my mind goes to a conspiratorial space because this is just so weird.

39:00And it's like something is not adding up here in the world of Angel. It's not adding up. So Kierna comes over and she sees the packing. And she's like, wait a minute. What's going on? She's like, yeah, we're moving. She's like, no, you can't leave me alone. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? So even Kay is like, what the fuck is this? This is weird, you know? And she's like, I'm shocked. Like, what's a proper conversation? Who did you speak with? What's going on? And they can't really get an answer that makes sense. And Tia comes over. And Bobby's just like, we're coming back.

39:32We're coming back. Listen, at the end of the day, you get nothing for nothing. And I'm addicted to inferior places to lay my loads. Okay? So don't you worry. We will be back. Yeah. You know, later on, she explains that they're going to Colorado to get their stuff to move into Potomac. I'm like, wouldn't the normal move be just to rent somewhere else in the neighborhood and you just stay there temporarily if all you have are your clothes? Something is not. And I guess if we had just gotten to know her, we'd understand. Yeah, so she says the house was double booked. And Kieran is like, well, why aren't you freaking out?

40:12And Tia's like, I'm alarmed. All the questions are going through my mind. I'm thinking, have you been kicked out? What was the agreement? because I'm thinking it's the landlord breaking it. Let's get the landlord. Is this like an Airbnb? And Angel's like, no, no, it's a wag BNB. It's a different sort of service for a certain group of people. It's an air wagon wag.

40:40It's like a short-term rental agreement. I think if you had gotten to know me, you would have known this. It's an air WAG.

40:48So where are you going to put yourself? I just got to put it in storage. And she's like, no, well, the house came fully furnished. So this is not even our furniture. All we have is our clothes. So that's all we have to go back. We have our clothes and a very teeny tiny Target shopping cart in the basement that we're going to see about 10 times in the next 30 seconds. Okay. But why aren't you working with a realtor? You know, I'm a realtor. Why don't I do it? You know, Jessica's not here. So I don't want to mix business with pleasure. But I'm also like, well, you're not very pleasurable. so I might as well do some business with you.

41:22You know what I'm saying? And Angel tells Bobby, she goes, oh yeah, Tia's a Sotheby's realtor. And he goes, you are? Like this whole time we've been on Zillow? Which is, that was the funniest line to me because you know, like Bobby, you know the entire time Bobby's like, let's get a realtor. And she's like, no, no, no, let's just look at this place and we don't need a realtor. And he's like, this is stupid. We need to get a realtor. And she's like, no, no, no, just we'll go on Zillow. And when he finds out that they could have just like dealt with someone in the group he just looks so exasperated he does look exasperated but she mentioned their real estate person is named jessica so i'm guessing that was their realtor but you know what jessica did she failed she failed today so um yeah she did yeah but he does say we've been on zillow the whole time so i don't know maybe i guess like a zillow rep you know what it is i think actually it's more like they've been doing all the the legwork instead of just having a realtor be like here here's some options for you although bobby the legwork is like the most fun part about that.

42:20Like it's so fun to look on Zillow. Why are you even complaining? I'm not mad at Bobby. I mean, it is, but if you're that rich, you need off the market listings that are only going to be shown to rich people. You don't need the Zillows. I mean, I think at that amount of money, the Zillow listings are, they've been on there for 500 days for a reason. You know, can you tell I'm still on Zillow every day? God, I love it. Actually, I've moved over to realtor as well. I use both now. Yeah, because I look so much that I go to one and then I go to the other. And they're all the same exact things, but there's different formatting.

42:51Sometimes I just like a darker background, okay? That's my prerogative. No, you need an ergonomic experience, okay? Yeah. So Bobby is like very frustrated that they've wasted all this time on Zillow when Tia has worked at Sotheby's this whole time. And Angel's like, okay, well, can you guys help me pack? Okay, because the horrors persist. It's crazy how much you can accumulate in six months. uh angel you're not like 23 out of college hire some movers you guys are rich why are you making your friends pack that this is i would be pissed i'd be like uh bye i gotta go to that hospital to check myself in for a coma that i'm coming into right now i've come up with some terrible excuse to get out of also those kids just have so many toys and i mean anyone with kids or with friends with kids or whatever kids in your life you know what those little fuckers do they amass an empire of toys that they don't ever use.

43:45Less toys, more Kindles. That's what I say. Put that kid on a little reader device and say, you know what? You're going to get the gift today of learning who Jane Eyre was. That is a gift. You are going to learn about Ethan Frome. And guess what? You shall never desire a sled again. Guess who else is age nine? Ramona Quimby. Get to reading. Okay. Yeah. Guess. You know what you're going to learn about? You're going to learn about the color scarlet in letter form. Get to reading. I want you to learn at five years old that you will not shoot on your husband or you will be in trouble with fashion in the town.

44:25You'll learn about which Bennett sister is the best. We turn off children for reading forever. Find out why Bernice bobbed her hair. So Tia leaves and immediately calls Giselle, of course because tea is a mess and she's chosen to be on the devil's side for whatever reason so she's reporting to say yeah so she's like well i should have used the toilet at angel's house but after how bobby talked about it i was sort of afraid yeah i wouldn't go in there after that so she's like i've been thinking of your friend i've been thinking of you and giselle's like well well, I wanted to invite you to a little July 4th cowboy Potomac party.

45:10And she's like, well, that will be lovely. So anyway, let me tell you about my daughter who's been grounded. What a little butt. So she grounded her daughter because she can't stop calling people dumb, which this is what gets us grounded now. I would have never gone outside. Well, I mean, I didn't go outside on purpose when I was a child, let's be honest. But still, I would have been in trouble all the time. yes and so tia is like um you know what's so funny i just had a i had a huge revelation just now i had an aha moment when you said about the grounding thing i thought about how when i was a kid when when kids um get in trouble in school and they get suspended and they have to stay home in my mind i always thought why is that a punishment for the kid because like to be able to stay home for three days instead of going to school like that's the best but then i realized you're such a burden to your parents because you're home for three days that your parents get so mad at you that they make your life hell.

46:04And now it all of a sudden makes sense. The school is saying like, you're so bad. Guess what, parents? You've done a shitty job with your child and now you've got to deal with them for three days when you were planning on drinking wine with your friends and go golfing or something. Now you're going to deal with the consequences of your child rearing. Yeah. I just realized that right now. You stay home from work and you deal with their stupid ass. Yes. Then maybe you'll raise them better. That's why suspending children is effective. Okay, Tia is like talking about, you know, her daughter. But then we're like, come on, Tia.

46:35We know what you're going to do. Just say it, all right. And so she goes, oh, I was just at Angel's. Poor thing. She's literally having to move out. And she's always like, what the? Why ya? And she's like, because apparently her lease is up and they've already rented it out to somebody else. So she's just going to pack up and go to Colorado and then really focus on buying a place and come back properly, you know. oh did i say too much she's like oh so she just came here basically for the show yes like most people i think who come on this show right we have a lot of people on this show who move here right when it's time to start filming like neka did that who else did that i feel like there's been a few on this show that just show up when it's time to film mia sort of like was in charlotte and atlanta and then um you also like being like yeah like wendy who apparently lives like an hour away from everyone like there's like it's a little nebulous you know you you don't see a lot of people that are like oh my god i gotta move to potomac just naturally and then i get to be on a tv show coincidentally yeah um so giselle has got some chew she's got something to chew on right so uh Tia's like, well, I don't think that's the case.

47:51She's from here. I think her husband's from Virginia. I don't want any parts of this. I don't want to hear. La, la, la, la, la, la. Famous last words. I wish it never came out, which is why Tisela was the first person I called to tell. Oops. That's the classic, classic phrase of a messy person. Oh, I wish if I had realized what I had said was going to set off such a firestorm, I never would have said something in the first place. Classic. Yeah. Well, if you plan to move back, you don't get a short-term lease. Or maybe she doesn't really like us like that. Of course, Giselle takes it like, oh, so she hated us, and that's why she didn't get a full lease?

48:30She hated us in advance. When she first started renting the house that she lives in, she didn't give the lady the right time frame. Okay, she thought we'd be finished filming this show, but we're not. We're still filming. But that lady said you ain't give me all that time you need, so now you gots to go. So Tia's like, hopefully this is just like a temporary setback. Yeah, but Giselle is so excited. Now she has something to go for for the rest of the season. So now let's go to Kid Strong with Wendy and her family. And Cameron has a gymnastics class. And so we see her do some gymnastics. And so Cam is with a Wendy.

49:12She does everything. Cameron's in the Quest Queen. She's a soccer player. She's in the school play. I'm here for all of it. All of it. And then they reflect on time years ago when they brought Cruz to karate. And they're just sort of like reflecting on all that. And Wendy's like, babe, listen, please make sure that those are available because I'm doing family Potomac and ponies. Eddie's like, Potomac and ponies? She's like, yeah, she basically says that she and Giselle decided that they're going to throw a party together for the force. and we see flashbacks of them planning that and wendy's like they're gonna do a potluck so everyone's gonna bring something and she's gonna bring fried chicken and uh even though their kitchen's been out of commission and then they start talking about how the renovations have been driving them all insane i was just laughing because she's like we're doing a potluck everyone has to cook except me the host of the potty i'm like i'm gonna order some shit i have no kitchen so they start talking about their renovations and how it's just endless they're spending so much money and she she can't stay on budget because she just wants other stuff you know and um she's like well i haven't counted but what i do know is if one voice is already over 100k then we already went over the budget so i know the budget's over yeah not good do we think this was already her storyline or do you think that bravo kind of edited it edited in these little scenes and these little moments just to sort of i think it was already because her whole thing was a renovation which is probably yeah what she funded by doing the insurance fraud you know yeah but it's it's like we're now we are clocking every little discussion of money from wendy and eddie and it's like oh not aging well yeah so yeah she just says yeah eventually she's like oh my god there's all this money and we just collect the invoices at this point oh wendy yeah so um now she's talking about her dad and um she still wants to speak to her dad and he's called her but she hasn't picked up because she doesn't want the comp she's afraid of the conversation and um she's like i just want to take that and be able to move on and he's like okay uh she goes okay so what happens after the phone call like we talk then what and so eddie is saying that him and his siblings or he and his siblings have a monthly sibling reconnect where they talk and see how everyone's doing and they're not best friends but they're still making an effort you know yeah and Eddie's family's been a good support system anyway it's like a nice scene like whatever so I mean it's kind of nice but it's like it's kind of boring I guess because we don't really know Wendy's dad but also he's kind of an asshole like you know like no matter what's going on with Wendy like I still like Wendy And so I'm like, fuck your dad.

52:05Yeah, she's having her best season. Yeah, I feel like, fuck your dad. So, like, I don't really care if she makes effort towards her dad because I feel like he's an asshole. But also, I'm wondering if she cares about her own physical health because becoming friends with her dad again is going to send her mom into a rage. And I'm like, why are you? Are you just trying to send her mom into a rage on TV? Because this is not going to end well. It's because it's going to happen next week. No, it was a good scene. It's just that there's so many other messy things happening on this episode that I'm like, I want to get to the messy stuff.

52:40Is your dad being evicted? No. Did your dad refuse to go to a wedding because it wasn't being filmed? Then I don't want to hear about it. Is your dad part of a football family who's used to moving a lot? Then I don't want to hear about it. Yeah, is your dad a daddy wag? Okay, then. Is he a dag? Then no. I don't know. What's the, I guess it would be wives and girlfriends would be husbands and boyfriends. Habs. Hey everyone, this is the end of part one of this recap. For part two, keep an eye on your podcast feed.
