Ben Mandelker and Ronnie Karam recap McBee Dynasty S03E02, “Night of the Living Russians,” focusing on the show’s ongoing chaos, especially around Galyna, the farm drama, and new girlfriend Allie.
Ben Mandelker (host) and Ronnie Karam (co-host). Both are comedians who recap Bravo reality TV on Watch What Crappens.
The hosts argue the episode is “in-between moments” comedy, but also criticize Bravo programming choices (Ladies of London and Miami paused) and call out casting/people they view as racist/vile (Aaron Grease reference). They say the show keeps villainizing Kala and that Galyna is the main reason they enjoy it.
Steven Jr. meets Allie at a fulfillment center, brags about making a logo, and discusses “oyster pills”/aphrodisiacs. Senior’s girlfriend Masha remodels the house and forces awkward Halloween-party interactions. Galyna arrives with a cooler and later gives a mugshot-style account of last year’s Halloween incident. The family gathers for s’mores while arguing about the farm’s survival and a deal with “Dr. Billings.” Cole claims he’s been making the real deals; Steven wants camera time. Christy clashes with Masha at the lodge over Galyna/Kala and car-wash drama.

0:00Ronnie Karam: What's up, y 'all? Summer's got a different tempo. Everything's a little looser, brighter. One plan turns into another. You hear something, you stay a little longer. Next thing you know, you're somewhere you didn't plan to be. It's those in-between moments. That's where the ideas hit. Conversations stretch out, little memories sneak up on you. Sometimes, it's just about what's in your hand. That color. That chill. The new tropical butterfly refresher from Starbucks. Guava and passion fruit flavors with mango pineapple flavored pearls. Yeah, that feels like summer before you even taste it. Funny how one small stop becomes the best part of the day.
0:39Ronnie Karam: Start your summer rhythm with Starbucks. Try the new tropical butterfly refresher from Starbucks. Have you tried Rothy's Casual Clog? It has sold out 10 times for a reason. It really is that good. With a luxe, extra comfy footbed and easy sleek design, Rothy's clogs are a celeb favorite shoe. Visit rothys.com and read what nearly 6 ,000 reviews have to say about these best-selling clogs. That's R-O-T-H-Y-S dot com.
1:18Ben Mandelker: Watch what happens. Watch what craps it. Who cares what happens?
1:36Ben Mandelker: Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo we'd love to talk about. I'm Ben Mandelker and joining me today is the glorious and wonderful Ronnie Karam. Hi Ronnie, how's it going? Hi, what you doing? Just hanging out with you. We're here today to recap the McBee Dynasty. Join us on Patreon, patreon.com slash watchwhatcrappens for bonus episodes, newsletter, free newsletter, I should say. Add a free listening video, all the good stuff, Discord, patreon.com slash watchwhatcrappens. And also, if you're a Game of Thrones fan, you might want to tell some people about Winter is Crappening.
2:18Ben Mandelker: That is our Game of Thrones House of the Dragon podcast. We simulcast our House of Dragons recaps here on this feed, but we know some people just are only interested in House of Dragons and not Bravo. So if that is the case, they can subscribe to our Winter is Crappening feed. Usually this applies to the spouses and the significant others who are watching you listen to us. And now you can throw them a bone and they can just listen purely to the Game of Thrones stuff. so winter is crappening uh and of course we have those episodes on our feed here as well so we had our first house the dragons episode up earlier this week uh that being said let's get into mcb dynasty and let's also like actually have a moment of silence for um ladies of london which has been officially put on pause after its like return season that was so tremendous i believe it was the best show that bravo has put on this year and i think it's like a true travesty that this show is on pause and also that miami is on pause i don't know what's going on over there i know ratings are an issue but like let's also like can we focus on shows that are great too and like even though they have low ratings i know it's a business but come on come on this is ridiculous
3:40Ronnie Karam: And having to say that that show is put on pause is the same day we're talking about McBee Dynasty, of all things, it's in its third season. Like, that is literally crazy, and I think it just highlights the injustice in the world. And that's it. Okay? Give your show, you made a brilliant show. Give it a chance, you guys. Give it a chance to flower. Yeah, give it a chance to flower.
4:01Ben Mandelker: And also, audience, like, this goes around to you, too. If you're not watching Ladies of London, like, you're missing out. like it's it's up to the audience to show up for the good stuff as well and so people show up show up and show bravo that like that that like we deserve these shows because otherwise we'll get stuck with more of this mcb dynasty bullshit like this show is so bad and i think people think that i'm like hating on it to be funny to give like a funny recap but i like genuinely hate this show and like the fact that it's like just on and like they just it's just while miami and lazy london are just on the bench is such an injustice it's just not right everyone it is not right
4:41Ronnie Karam: the stand up vote go go watch ladies of london on streaming do whatever make a change come on everyone make a change um but you know um francis who heads up uh programming over there um was giving an interview where she was saying you know we're going towards we found success with things like McBee Dynasty and, you know, that sort of audience. And which is why they're doing their like Ladies of Bernie or whatever, you know, which is coming up, which I get, you know, and I'm a Texan. That sounds really fun to me. I think it's probably going to be a good show. But then you're casting Aaron Grease in that show, who is so vile and racist on Big Brother.
5:29Ronnie Karam: They literally had to change how they do things on Big Brother because of her. And that's what you're bringing back? Like, come on. Yeah, it's not fair.
5:38Ben Mandelker: It's not fair. But as long as McBee Dynasty is here, you know, why not tear it apart, right?
5:45Ronnie Karam: So here we are.
5:47Ben Mandelker: Oh, yeah.
5:47Ronnie Karam: I enjoy McBee Dynasty. I think it's funny. And the reason is Galena. And to a lesser extent, Masha. And this episode is season three, episode two, Night of the Living Russians, which, yes. I mean. Finally, we get to see Galena with her shovel, which is really all I've been asking for.
6:08Ben Mandelker: She does good work with a tool. So it's three days since the sentencing of Stephen McBee Jr. I don't know why we have to keep on tracking it. He got sentenced. It's okay. We don't need to keep the timer up.
6:22Ronnie Karam: the whole not having daddy McBee on this show is a problem you know and I think that they're maybe doing it for legal reasons I mean I don't know on his end he probably doesn't want to get himself in any more trouble than he's already in but just talking about him over and over and having him be this invisible character but we're going to his house to bring him stuff and it's just weird he needs to be on this show that disgusting man needs to be on this show it's kind of the point of the show you know yeah i mean like if he's not going to be on the show
6:53Ben Mandelker: then we don't need constant updates on like when he's going to jail like it's fine but it affects
6:58Ronnie Karam: me and our entire family how dare you so we're at the fulfillment center and steven is bragging to his new you know calla lookalike girlfriend that uh he's like look this fulfillment center look i made a logo look at that she's like wow you are so talented steven you are so nice
7:19Ben Mandelker: I've been at the ranch for like a few days now. And like, as far as dating, we're both kind of like zero to 100. Like we had an insane emotional connection on Instagram. Like you send a gift and I was in the gift and I was like, oh my God, soulmates. And I was like, dear God, I hope that the physical is there too. And it was the best two pumps of my life. You know, that's what I will say. Best 20 seconds of my life.
7:45Ronnie Karam: Steven man 20 seconds damn um so now uh Ali is showing Steven a bottle and she's like uh he says oh those are oyster pills you know what those do that's what's called when it makes you want to have sex an aphrodisiac or something and she's like oh I think naturally I have that when it comes to yo I don't even need any oyster pill all I really need is these cameras so keep them rolling, boys.
8:11Ben Mandelker: Steven tells us, It is so nice of Allie. It's different. It's not what I'm used to. I mean, for once, I finally get to be with a blonde girl with big tits and a lot of makeup on her face. God! So nice of writing things.
8:25Ronnie Karam: Finally, I can be with someone who looks exactly like my mother that I can have sex with that'll pretend she is interested in oyster pits. I know.
8:34Ben Mandelker: I mean, like, talk about Erin Grease. I mean, this girl looks just like her. It's kind of wild. There really is a type. So Steven is like, There's so much going on in our lives, and I'm just trying to be present, Ellie. And I promise you, I am trying.
8:50Ronnie Karam: He's like, at least it's not the other blonde that we all know from this show, that I brought onto this show. I mean, this whole episode is like trying to villainize Kala. I mean, team Kala still. Like, I wish Kala was here to tell you idiots off. That's what the season is missing.
9:07Ben Mandelker: I need Kala. I'm sure she'll be here. they will ship her in at some point. That's what they did all last season. They kept up being like, remember this girl? I was like, no, I don't. I didn't watch the first season and I don't care to know who this new person is. So Allie is like, she's holding up some tallow and she's like, I'm going to try this tallow. And then I also, like, do you shave your face with it? Do you shave your face with tallow? And he's like, what do you mean shave my face? He's like, well, well, nevermind. Nevermind. I don't, they're talking about tallow and shaving or whatever.
9:37Ben Mandelker: And she's talking about how. She says she shaves her face
9:38Ronnie Karam: And he's like, what? She's like, yeah, because peach fuzz, you know? He's like, oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Well, I never had to worry about that, I guess. So then she's saying how everyone's going to go to Stephen's house tomorrow because she's going to meet the whole family, guys. It's like sort of a big deal, okay? And she's been in relationships where she's moved really quick. And it's something that I just want to do different in this relationship. What are you talking about? You're already meeting the family. You've been here five minutes.
10:08Ben Mandelker: I love that this whole stupid scene is taking place at a fulfillment center because I'm going to tell you this right now. There's no fulfillment happening here. Not between us entertainment wise. There is no fulfillment here. So Ali is like, I'm just excited. Yeah, I can't wait to meet this family. And I know their world right now is very chaotic and there's a lot going on. So I really have no idea what to expect. but here's what I will do. I'm going to show my teeth a lot and then hold all the babies.
10:40Ronnie Karam: I'm going to say things like this. Oh my God, you are so pretty. I can't wait to ask your mama what it's like raising four boys.
10:51Ronnie Karam: So she's like, do I get charged for all these products? They probably never paid off the initial. So don't worry about it. Throw it on their tab.
11:04Ben Mandelker: Well, I'm just like, imagine her going back to Texas and like, wow, Allie, your skin looks so great. What are you doing? I'm using the Stephen McBee beef tallow on my face. Like, just what everyone wants to say as part of their beauty regimen.
11:18Ronnie Karam: I only trust cow kidney fat squeezed by Casey herself.
11:25Ben Mandelker: so now we go to Steve Senior's house and Jake is there uh and he comes in and Masha is he sees Masha and he's like I'm always running around the farm and you know I do tours here and there and occasionally you know I go over the lodge and take care of animals and stuff here and there and Masha seems to be there here and there and it's what you would call a sage five clinger I'm she is his girlfriend. I think it's not crazy that she would actually be in the house of the man that she's dating.
11:57Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Masha is also nuts, though. He's not necessarily wrong, but it's like, yeah. She's probably got more reason to be there than you do. What are you doing here? She's remodeling the whole place, which I love. I love Masha just coming in, being Like, my house now, we remodel Especially when he's about to go to jail Like, okay Perfect time to remodel So she tells us that Stephen's ready To go away in a few weeks And his mom is moving in So we decided to, you know, remodel You know, spur of the moment We've been together a year and a half now Since Golina moved out And I do consider him my boyfriend But does he consider you his girlfriend?
12:42Ronnie Karam: That's always the question With senior
12:46Ben Mandelker: yeah uh i i would i would hope so after a year and a half um so masha's like i was just you know i'm just trying to enjoy the time and it's very sad obviously he needs to go away soon so we're just we're just losing sleep over it i'm like you're also probably losing sleep because galena is throwing rocks at your window but that's fine so jake is like you're going to the halloween party on Friday. These two people are forced to do this scene together. I feel like they've never talked
13:15Ronnie Karam: before in their lives. Masha just has this confused look on her face in every scene. It's like just this lady dressed to the nines, standing in the middle of a kitchen being remodeled like, Hello! Yes, Halloween party. It was so traumatized last year. I don't know if I can go again. You know, you're not invited first of all. And if it's so traumatizing then why do you immediately show up you're so thirsty because they've got nothing else to do
13:43Ben Mandelker: with this group i mean the halloween party happens later in the episode and it's just the whole family just gathering to celebrate halloween it's just like the saddest little halloween party you can imagine so she says how last year galena was very intoxicated at the halloween party and then galena tells us what everybody was drunk including them they were trashed and then masha says that galena was spitting in her face and screaming and cussing and punching and everything, all those things that could happen at a Halloween party.
14:11Ronnie Karam: Oh, well, she was so cocky and arrogant and constantly was pushing me, and Masha's like, she ran through the house, and I can hear her heels going faster, faster, closer, closer, and then she gets to the bedroom, and she starts to scream, and Galena's like, they blew the whole thing completely out of proportion. They called the cops.
14:33Ben Mandelker: And then there's like this mugshot that you're I feel like this mugshot is like you're going to print out a giant poster and put it on your wall, Ronnie.
14:42Ronnie Karam: It's my favorite thing. I've been sending it to people in text responses all week. I think it's so fucking funny. Here, I'll show you. Are you asking me to put it up?
14:50Ben Mandelker: I will.
14:51Ronnie Karam: Here it is.
14:52Ben Mandelker: It's just Galena. And she's got a big bandage on her forehead. And she's giving you this pouty look like, what's a lot?
15:02Ronnie Karam: She's still trying to do model pout. Like, look at me. But she's like her eyeliner and mascara is all smeared all over her face. Her hair is a mess. She's got a bandage on her eye and she's in gel orange in her mugshot. My queen. Your outdoor space should feel like you. I have this gigantic patio deck thing that I wanted to use for parties. And I could just not find any fashionable patio furniture. I needed a lot and I needed it to go together. I needed different pieces that all kind of looked the same. I was able to go on Wayfair and search for exactly what I needed. Different brands, different things all coming together in one style.
15:42Ronnie Karam: It was so easy to do it, and it looks great.
15:45Ben Mandelker: I can confirm that his outdoor area looks great. And the thing is that you can get more than just seating. You can get grills, major appliances, storage, patio lighting, rugs, decor. Wayfair really is your one-stop shop for home.
15:57Ronnie Karam: And the best thing about this place, well, not the best, one of the best, is that you don't even have to put this stuff together. you can hire somebody from Wayfair to come put it over, put it all together for you, you know? And that's the best part because if I put it together, it's rickety, it's falling apart, no matter where it's from. I just don't have that skill.
16:14Ben Mandelker: But they do. Yeah, that is actually probably the part of Wayfair that I just tell my friends about just unsolicitedly. I just will say, like, not only can you order the stuff, someone else can put it together for you. Patio season is here and these deals won't last. Head to Wayfair.com right now and get your outdoor space ready for way less. That's W-A-Y-F-A-I-R dot com. Way fair, every style, every home.

17:28Ronnie Karam: So Masha is back with Jake. And she's like, I don't know, Jake. I don't know if I will go to Halloween party. Yeah, right. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. So then Steven Jr. is over at his house trying to impress Allie by chopping wood. It's like, oh, God, this is what we all needed. Improve his virility. And of course, he can't do it. Just fucking funny.
17:58Ben Mandelker: the axe just gets stuck in there and so she's like um you need any help over there and uh he she like comes over and like lifts the axe out of the out of the stump she's like suck it cala oh god when i see steven swinging that axe he's so masculine to me in so many ways steven is sexy i guess it's not so much that he's swinging the axe more like puts the axe into the wood and then spends the rest of the time trying to pull it out to get that back part of the swing But you know what I'm saying
18:25Ronnie Karam: Hey so manly He's like I can't get the axe out I can't get the axe out of this wood He's like what a man And he's like yeah I did like five logs Before he even came over here Pretty good, pretty good, want to marry me? Want to get married? Start popping out them children Hopefully with penises, let's start doing it now I'm a man So then they kiss and this is supposed to be The most romantic story in the world And it's just so creepy I mean, before we even knew Steven's text, like, you fucking whore, you slut, to her a few months later for dancing with somebody at stagecoach. Even before that, it's like, oh, God, who's thirstier in this scene?
19:04Ronnie Karam: Steven showing up and pretending he's a cowboy who runs his company when he clearly doesn't. Or this girl coming on with Califace trying to convince us that she's really here because she thinks Steven is really manly.
19:19Ben Mandelker: I mean dark horse candidate the tree stump being like oh yeah you're going to chop me I'm going to hold on to your axe talk about a stage five clinger I'll tell you and also by the way talk about romance nothing can be more romantic than when Cole took that lady that whoever whatever name was to Colorado and she's like I've never done see a mountain before so like it's going to be hard to top that yeah that was basically Paris
19:47Ronnie Karam: That was basically Paris. Yeah, Casey. I've never done seeing a mountain before. It's so exciting, Cole. Finally, you're proving to me that you really want something with me.
19:58Ben Mandelker: I've never done see a pine tree before. One of those little earrings it has on. Pine cones. So, Christy, meanwhile, shows up, and she's got some fall decor. because you know that's she's probably been showing up at this house that fall decor for many months like mom not yet it's June okay I'll be back mom it's July
20:25Ronnie Karam: like just constantly bringing in more fake leaves it already looks like a Michael sale section please please stop so she meets Allie and I was like oh my god good to meet you can I help can I help you she's like oh my god well I'm meeting Allie for the first time and my first impression of her is she's bubbly she's fun she just seems genuine and not anything like that slut whose name I won't mention Callie
20:54Ben Mandelker: there is nothing about Allie that seems genuine and I love that Christy's like her picker is just so bad she's like oh she seems just totally great so Allie because Allie is doing the right thing she's being gregarious and forthcoming with the potential mother-in-law so she's like helping her with the fall decor say i'm ali hi everyone because now jesse and other ali arrive and then summer and everyone and there's a little bit of like i'm ali i'm ali as well oh my god good to meet you ali i heard there were two alleys i love it why did i call that show ali and ali why who needs a kate am i right oh god it's great to be part of the

21:49Ben Mandelker: Cole and Casey arrive with Blair, and they're like, oh, hi. And Casey's like, the first thing that I think of when I see Allie is, oh, my gosh, she just looks like Kala. Blonde, blown out, big hair, big boobs. I feel like I'm looking at the same person.
22:06Ronnie Karam: But you also know that you just described yourself I was about to say You all look like that There's like one of you who doesn't look like that I mean this family definitely has casting You know A casting type So Cole's like Allie and Keller definitely look alike But I just hope their personalities are different Because Steven likes blonde girls And he has a pacific type And she's definitely pacific and they're like do you mean specific oh my god these poor producers do you have to do this every episode did you mean specific or specific and he's like pacific like specific pacific one was saying it wrong technically pacific is an adjective but it's not the one that he's trying
22:52Ben Mandelker: to go for um so steven now galena arrives with a cooler and uh she's like i never arrived empty handed uh there was who else thought masha's head was gonna be in that cooler she's acting like she's bringing in some sodas but it's just like a separate head um and it's like awkward put down

24:46Ben Mandelker: How many awful gay things does Allie appropriate? Not that the things are awful, but her appropriation of them are awful. How many times do you think she's just like, that is tea? Which actually is a pretty reason for me
25:01Ronnie Karam: What did she just say?
25:01Ben Mandelker: No, I'm just saying, you just know that Ali is probably like Gays love me, oh my god, this is my jam Gaga, yes You're like, oh please, get this lady out of here
25:13Ronnie Karam: Um I feel like she wouldn't have much of a gay presence But I think it's because it's like McBee Dynasty You know? So I'm like, do they even know gay people? Or have they heard of gay people yet? Has anybody explained gay people to them yet?
25:29Ben Mandelker: I think she has gay friends in Texas. And I feel like she, but I think because she has some gay friends, I just imagine her trying to, like, do gay culture things and just, like, totally butchering them, you know. But we'll see. I'm sure. Just give it time.
25:45Ronnie Karam: Time will tell. So, Cole's like, well, you know, like, there was, they're telling stories about Steven, basically. Like, one time Steven peed the bed, you know. Last time Steven stayed the night We went up after her and there was pee in the bed And he's like oh that was not me And um Allie of course is like oh my god I love this I love embarrassing Stories about my honey And then she like grabs him and pulls him close Like oh Well you're too much too fast Why has anybody fallen for this I think anybody If anybody was genuine in this family They'd be like this person is clearly a TV hog and fake this, right?
26:31Ben Mandelker: Yeah, well, Casey's like, even though Allie and Steven's ex look alike, they act completely different. Allie's actually fun to be around, and she's a nice person, and Steven's ex is the complete opposite of that. Well, I mean, there may be some truth to that. I mean, I'm not saying that Allie's a good person, but she probably is a little bit more fun than Kala, because Kala was truly not fun to be around ever. so maybe they're just like happy it's not someone like droopy dog complaining all the time so steven's like i say we go out make some s'mores here wouldn't take that long to get the fire going so now they're gonna go outside and start a fire which is i feel like they start a fire every episode so this is today is a fire and they're gonna like uh they're gonna like set up some
27:15Ronnie Karam: s'mores and the fire explodes once again steven's like wow this is not even comparable to kella I mean, this is crazy. Like, she's so good with the family. You know, you guys really have a lot of time to talk about Kala. It's been every single scene that you guys are sitting here talking about Kala. Team Kala. You guys are such fucking losers. If Kala is that bad, then why don't you just erase Kala instead of every single thing? Like, even the mom's like, wow, I mean, this is different. I'm just not used to like having so much fun with Stephen's blonde. But here we are. Yeah. You raised a pig.
27:54Ronnie Karam: Okay. You raised a fucking pig. And now you're all blaming Calla for this. This one's going to end up the same way. And it's not because it's a she. It's because of your son. Yeah. So.
28:08Ben Mandelker: So then inside the house, Ali's like, he keeps saying, I have big plans for us, which is really sweet. And he is so thoughtful that Stephen McBee and like with boys, I mean, you just never know if they don't have sisters. I mean, how they're going to be, right? And Colleen's like, yes, it is definitely from you, Christy. You are a great mother. Look at me, friends with Christy again. Christy's like, I do not claim you.
28:31Ronnie Karam: No, but seriously, I was like, I told him, I cannot wait to meet your mom. Like, I mean, you must have an amazing mom, I told him, because you are amazing, and your mom must be amazing. Say, yeah, well, thank you. why are they so different than that jezebel belilah hell he was named my mother
28:55Ben Mandelker: ellie if you really wanted to make an impression you would have brought a 64 ounce uh you know coffee latte whatever ice latte for kirstie that's how you really get into this family but um yeah so they all love her and casey's like yeah he texted me and was like i'm going to date her and then i texted him back and said does she know that does she want that and i was like
29:19Ronnie Karam: So outside, Stephen's making the s'mores. And he's like, you guys want to get the women? Get the women. It's time for some s'mores. So he's talking about how much is going on. He's talking to Cole. He's like, you know, I'm going to be honest with you, Cole. I get a little nervous because we can't screw this big deal up or the farm is going down. I'm like, okay. What's this week's the farm is going down story? and Cole's like well wait I'll handle Billings this week you ain't gotta worry about it because I do everything at this here farm now you're not even really here I'm the big man at this farm I
29:52Ben Mandelker: ain't gonna be bossed around by you yeah so uh Cole tells us while Stephen was off in fairytale world I set up a meeting with the son-in-law very successful business guy named Dr. Billings and they definitely have the resources and the ability to buy HQ and the grain bins. I was like, why does Dr. Billings sound like the villain in some children's book? Yeah, it really does. Dr. Billings is coming here to take away the town farm. Yeah, Dr. Billings.
30:26Ronnie Karam: Yeah, so Cole's telling us, you know, they're in real trouble. The bank's breeding down there in the ass, and we got stuff going on with that situation. and Steven's like, yeah, with that situation we can't miss Ram. I can't have this deal fall through. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna be there. And I'm not saying you need to hand it off, but maybe give me a little bit. I need to do something on camera. Besides let mom put fall leaves in my house that are made out of plastic. Okay? And Cole's like, well, I've been doing everything. You've been off of fairytale land. This is my deal with Dr. Billings.
30:55Ronnie Karam: You ain't gonna take it. I kind of
30:58Ben Mandelker: feel like one thing, one issue that this show has is that so much kind of just hinges on the future of this farm but i don't know if the show has done enough to make us actually care about the farm maybe if you watch from season one you would care but i really find that i don't care what happens with this farm and there's so much talk about like we're gonna lose the farm we're gonna lose then what then what happens if we lose the farm and i'm like i don't care like i i'm because also like we've seen this happen so many times on these shows on on all bravo shows we're gonna lose this house we're gonna lose this thing we're gonna lose this car and everyone it's i don't know like it's it's like very low stakes for me i know it's actually very high stakes but it feels very low stakes to me i don't know why i just don't connect with with like their business concerns well it's hard to even believe it's successful at all because
31:47Ronnie Karam: they keep talking about how successful it is but every single year they're losing everything they're not making the deals they're supposed to you know it's like this if we don't make this deal we are not going to get anything and then they don't make the deal and then this year we don't get this and And then they don't get it. Well, but then if this doesn't happen and then it doesn't happen and then dad might be arrested, but surely that won't happen. And then he is. And then it's like all these millions of dollars that they're having to pay. It's like, is there any success? And then finding out that Steven in this episode, we find out that Cole isn't full of shit, that he really has been making all the deals.
32:19Ronnie Karam: And he has been the one setting up all the deals that are bringing in the millions. I mean, this grant is selling everything off. So he's basically running an estate sale. But still, he's the one doing it. And Stephen's not even around for any of this shit. Like, Stephen just is like, well, it's time to start shooting again. So I'm going to get some, you know, phony girl with like a Richard Nixon version of Callow's face. You know, that rubber mask they always use to rob banks in 80s movies. I'm just going to, like, get one of those faces made for this girl and bring her on here. And, you know, we're going to shoot her.
32:50Ronnie Karam: It's just so, like, you guys even trying to pretend this is real anymore. Who cares about your fucking farm?
32:57Ben Mandelker: so Cole is really upset and he's like I spent the whole year grinding out and fixing everything I could and like I'm gonna let you know how it's going but like I don't need you stepping in and trying to overtake every situation I'm in and everything I'm involved with okay because they don't need two of us to try to say things try to figure out who the boss man is because I had the deal going I'm gonna finish it I'm a big boy and Steven's like now I understand that but like I don't know if you understand everything that we put into this office build out and the grain bin and all the things like that like the dribble door you know because I was I was, you know, I was there during construction phase.
33:28Ben Mandelker: And I could talk to them. I could tell them exactly what everything is worth.
33:32Ronnie Karam: So, Cole's like, yeah, but then every time they show the construction phase, they just show all the other brothers actually doing the work. And you don't see Steven in there. I don't think in any of those pictures. But he's always like, I'm the one there making deals. And Cole's like, no, I'm doing it. You better let me do it. I'm a man now. He's like, okay, well, fine. You know what? If this deal falls through, there's no other buyers. He's like, you don't think I know that? You don't think since last year my daughter was born This is the most important thing That I keep this farm from my family My daughter I want Blair to inherit this farm Oh my god I want Blair to inherit a horse That she can ride the fuck away from you crazy people on
34:10Ben Mandelker: I want Blair To like go off and Work at like J.P. Morgan or something Just get out of here So then we go And I want that like at two years old I want her to be a little bobby Literally yeah
34:23Ronnie Karam: I want her to be like, look at that I'm shockingly already in college Bye! Just leave Be gone
34:30Ben Mandelker: So now we go to Christy's House and there's a sign on the mantle That says, grandkids spoiled Here It's just a It's just a Giant I don't know Giant dispenser of lattes So Casey is holding Blair On breakberry Always preoccupied with her giant lattes
34:56Ronnie Karam: So Allie and Casey are both over there Hanging out with babies and Christy And they're talking about how Masha texted Christy And they're like, what? Why would Masha? I mean, that's too much energy They're like, what? Masha texted you? You shouldn't even text Masha back You're too good of a woman for Masha She's like, yeah, I don't even want to give that any attention Here's the text Hi, Christy, it's Masha I wanted to let you know I've been thinking about you and your family. I know you've been lately. I hope you find time to meet in private. I'd love to hear from you. Please let me know what works.
35:30Ronnie Karam: I don't even understand that. What the hell does that even mean? I'm not talking to her. Like, yeah, you shouldn't talk to her. She's like, yeah, because you know what? I don't like the way she treated Galena. What? Galena was your cleaning lady who slept with her husband and then ran away. Oh, Christy. Oh, Christy.
35:48Ben Mandelker: Stephen and Galena were together. Then Galena was helping Masha out, and they were friends, very good friends. And then her and Steve got together. So she doesn't like that she double-crossed Galena. She's standing by girl code, et cetera.
36:00Ronnie Karam: Well, she also likes Galena now because Galena has opened up to her about the business and the books. And so she's showing Christy. Like, Christy was probably kind of cut out from a lot of that. And Galena's like, no, come here. I show you books. She's like, we're friends now. So Galena's given her a business.
36:18Ben Mandelker: Chrissy's whole thing was that like her whole thing was like oh I'm a powerful entrepreneur I started my own business and it's like way more successful than Stevens and then ever since then all we do is see her lurking around bringing you know plastic you know autumnal leaves to places like did she retire did she sell her business or whatever because now her whole thing is that like you know Masha doesn't care about the family but Galena is the one who actually cares about the family yeah she screwed me over but she cares about this family so much I mean she went to the car wash opening do you remember she worked so hard she was at the car wash she was putting soap in the bucket so that way they could get the suds ready to to wash them windshields and masha doesn't give a shit so that's all well she was she was bringing up the car wash
37:00Ronnie Karam: she's bringing up the car wash because she's mad that masha showed up at the car wash opening she's like that girl that masha i mean she knew how hard galena worked and she showed up to that car wash opening that was just to make alina crazy um so i think she does still have her own business but She's looking at this as like, this is my boys, and I need to make sure that, you know. And she also knows that they could all go to prison soon. You've read, right, that the other boys are in trouble too, but not Steve. It's just Cole and Jesse apparently got a lot of land and stuff transferred into their name, possibly illegally, and they're going to be going to trial, according to the internet, in like March 2027.
37:42Ronnie Karam: So Christy just wants to know what's going on. And you know she's been shut out of this shit forever until Galena was like, okay, we can be friends. You can look at books. And she's like, I'm on Galena's side now.
37:54Ben Mandelker: Yeah, I can't believe Cole and Jesse got up to shady business, especially after last week. Somehow our house wound up with Under the McBee Family Farms name. Yeah, shocking.
38:06Ronnie Karam: Especially when they're like, Daddy, we can do nothing without Daddy. Meanwhile, Daddy's setting them all up to go to prison. He's like, he's like camouflaging assets and stuff through his own children. Shocker. Allegedly. Allegedly.
38:19Ben Mandelker: Allegedly. So Steven and Ali are outside. They're walking around. And Steven's like, I'm going to be honest. I think you are seeing a very good side of me. And I think that you are bringing out a good side of me. And she's like, oh, I've been very pleasantly surprised getting to know you and being on TV with you has been really fun. And we really align on a lot of things like you getting me on TV. And I honestly just can't believe it.
38:39Ronnie Karam: we got chemistry right we got chemistry we do we have so much chemistry he's like right got so much chemistry just keep telling each other that so he says things went couldn't have gone better with her meeting the family and she's just fitting so well and so then we go uh we're back at the farm and she's like my mom texted me this morning it was like how's the chemistry and i was like oh that's what i like to hear when i date someone i want them to like
39:10Ben Mandelker: care about my family as much as i do so for me seeing steven feel the same way about his was like really special and i like it really made me see him in a different light and it's like in a great light and like it sped up our relationship because of it you know also being on tv really
39:24Ronnie Karam: sped it up fast i'm ready for the ring so he's telling her you know his dad's situation made him realize that he's getting older he's 31 now and isn't crazy that he's 31 i thought he was older yeah i don't really understand you know i don't really have age like uh vision right look at someone and can guess their age i just assumed he was but um he's like yeah you know i mean i've just done everything pouring myself into these businesses but now maybe it's time to let somebody else do the stuff and i can go have a real life and it's like well you've already been doing that I mean, Cole's more trustworthy with the business than you.
40:01Ronnie Karam: That's sad. Yeah. So he's basically like, I need to give Cole more credit, which is crazy because I never thought I would see that day. But he's admitting, like, Cole has made really big deals. And he's like, I just always thought, you know, Cole was just an idiot doing stupid drunken things. And we see Cole beating up a hill. He's like, I'm so mad at dirt. Commercials, here comes one right now.

42:25Ben Mandelker: now we see cole reading something and mumbling which is also how he reads i think he's like today i i'm meeting with a potential buyer today for the hq it's really the only option that we have to get this off and pay it off everything that we need to pay off right now so this guy named john comes and meets uh cole and i'm sorry did you mean mr billings dr billings dr billings he has a medical degree in the field of billing I have got a medical degree in corn
43:01Ronnie Karam: I'm Dr. Billings
43:03Ben Mandelker: So Cole's now going to give this man a tour of the facilities in an effort to
43:09Ronnie Karam: make some sort of$30 million deal And it's pretty funny because it is very Cole The guy's like, so how big are the silos? Well, they're silos How big are they? Big Do you have like a number of gallons? Gallons are for pools
43:25Ben Mandelker: I don't understand gallons I measure things in terms of boxes of Cheerios, and I think you could get about 40 ,000 boxes of Cheerios in that thing if you pour stuff out.
43:34Ronnie Karam: I can tell you what. I got a hat that's 10 gallons. He's like, okay. Where does the cattle go? In the barn. Where's the barn? We're talking about silos. Doesn't this include a barn? Hold on. Let me look at the papers. He doesn't know the answer to the questions. I was cracking up, and it's intercutting with Stephen being like, I really need to trust Cole more. Cole. Cole, the smartest guy in the world now. And then it cuts to Cole being like, hold on, let me show you the swimming pool. Oh, I forgot. We don't got a swimming pool here. But never mind.
44:08Ben Mandelker: How many bushes are in a bushel again? I'm sorry, I just can't remember right now. So then we go back to Stevens and he's talking about, telling Allie, he's like, yeah, Cole's meeting with a guy that's interested in buying one of our grain bins in the office. And Allie's like, is that good or bad? Dad, should I be trying to be that guy's wife instead? She's like, no, no, no, it's good. But it's just like, it's just him up there. And he's like, not, he's like, obviously not with like my dad or Jesse. And I just, I don't think that like he should meet with him alone. I just get, I get a little scared of Cole talking to professionals on our behalf.
44:39Ronnie Karam: Yeah. He's like, I'm going to go up there. He needs to see me. And she's like, didn't you just say you need to trust Cole more? Come on, honey. He's like, you're right. You're right. So now we go over to the fulfillment center for those of you who were like, oh my God, We have not been at the fulfillment center enough. We go back and Casey is now going to be selling or not. She already is selling beef tallow products. This is the beef tallow we saw earlier. And she's literally making it sound like she goes and squeezes the tallow out of the cows themselves and then adds a bunch of stuff to it.
45:13Ronnie Karam: And whoop, there you go. They got a product and she's selling it. And this could change their whole life. By the way, Mama, would you go drop some stuff over at Masha's house for me? and she's like, oh no, I didn't want to talk to Masha. What a conundrum.
45:29Ben Mandelker: Oh no. No, please. I'm sure it'll be fine. I'm sure no one will be at the lodge. The lodge. The lodge. So yeah, because KC is because since Christy's going back to the city, big city life, she's like can you just drop these steaks off? Because they get a phone call. It's like, hey we're gonna have steaks tonight you want to come so she's got to drop steaks off at the lodge um and uh who knows what might happen if she does that so they go to the she goes to the lodge and
46:04Ronnie Karam: of course masha's there and she's like oh my god masha's here oh no masha i just came here to drop off steaks and she's like that is fine and so christy like goes around like the long way to the kitchen trying not to talk to masha and then masha's just right there in her face like can we talk. She's like, oh, goddammit. So, Masha's like, I want to talk about the issues we've been having. She's like, you and Steve, you know what? I don't got a dog in this fight, okay? You don't have to worry about me with Steve. She's like, I'm not worried. She goes, oh, well, I think you are. I think you are.
46:38Ben Mandelker: Do you possibly have chicken in fight? Because if you do, there's something you should know. Kalina is very dangerous. Do you have ginger in fight? Do you have ginger in fight? I'm just dropping off steaks. Don't mind me. She's like, you know that I care about the boys, you know, Paul, Simon, and Grant. They're like my own children.
47:05Ronnie Karam: You do not. And the problem I have with you is you don't care about my boys, okay? And I don't want to hear you talk about it because you don't. And a little performance you made at the St. Joe car wash opening, okay? Isn't St. Joseph the saint of lost things? I have to look that up. You're asking definitely the wrong person.
47:24Ben Mandelker: But how could you make a scene at one of the most important social events of the season? An opening of a car wash.
47:33Ronnie Karam: Oh, no. St. Joe is the patron saint of workers, fathers, families, and the universal church. Well, then a car wash is the best way to celebrate that.
47:45Ben Mandelker: Yeah. So she's telling her off.
47:49Ronnie Karam: about the car wash thing and she's like i've heard about it my boys told me about it and she's like i did not know that galena was even going to be at the car wash and she's like oh well galena made that car wash guy it was going to be called the saint galena car wash but she said no please call it after saint joe i just can't galena's a good person she might want she won't have a call saint galena that's what a good person she said christy you should name this car wash christy's boys all of them have penises and are beyond thin. I say thank you, Galena.
48:21Ben Mandelker: You know, I'm not seeing. Do you know how embarrassing it is to make a scene while a Honda Civic is getting its undercarriage waxed? Tell me about it. She's like, so you had no idea. Galena was going to be like, no, I had no idea. You know, she's like, well, Steve said he never invited you to the car wash, and I'm just going to let you know that you're not allowed at the car wash. Well, yeah, you know Steve, you know Steve. You know how he is. Saying one thing about car washes, then meaning another thing about car washes. You know, in Russia, we have a saying which goes like this. Never trust a man about the things he says about car washes.
48:58Ronnie Karam: Listen, in Russia, we say, you can wash a car, but you cannot car wash.
49:05Ben Mandelker: Teach a man to wash a car, he washes a car. Teach a man to wash a car again, and then you're invited to all car washes. I think that's pretty universal. And Chrissy's like,
49:17Ronnie Karam: well, I don't have to accept Steve's girlfriend just because they're Steve's girlfriends. And that's it, okay? And so Masha - Wait, wait, wait.
49:24Ben Mandelker: Cut to next episode. Chrissy's going to be like, well, I've decided I'm going to accept Steve's girlfriend because she's important to Steve and Steve's important to my boys and my boys are important to me, so I accept her. You know it's going to be something like that.
49:38Ronnie Karam: Yeah, probably. So she is telling Masha She doesn't want this stress of Masha's drama And Masha's like I don't want drama What are you talking about All I want is Halloween party So Chris is like Whatever okay fine bye So now we go to Jesse's wife Allie And Casey driving And Stephen calls them And is like what do you think of Allie I'm going to marry her probably tomorrow What do you think of that They're like Jesus you've known her for two seconds and said, hey, I have been talking to her every day for two weeks. How dare you?
50:13Ben Mandelker: Casey's like, I like her more than that cool hairbrush I found in Colorado. Casey, are you still brushing your hair with a pine cone?
50:22Ronnie Karam: Oh, yeah. And they're like, dude, this is too fast. He's like, oh, really, Casey? I think maybe you're just a little jealous. Because Cole's been with you seven years and still won't marry you. She's like, damn. Oh. But then it does turn into that, because then Casey's like, But wait, now that I think about it, Cole still isn't married to me after seven years and a baby. I better talk to Cole about this. Yeah.
50:51Ben Mandelker: So Casey's, like, not happy with that. And so then we go back to HQ, and Cole walked into the kitchen, and there's Galena and Jake and Jesse. and Cole's like, well, I got some crazy news. The combine drove off the road again. What? Oh, no, not that. I just heard from the title office and guess what? They're calling it Avengers 5. More Avengers. That's it. It came from the title office. They named it that. No, you went to the wrong title office. Oh, hold on one second. Hey, I got back from the other title office. Guess what? The office is closing. The title office? No, our office is closing. We're closing the deal.
51:37Ronnie Karam: I sold the deal, y 'all. In one episode, I showed the farm, had no information about the farm, and closed the deal on the farm. Wow, super fast, Cole. Good for you. He's like, yeah, everybody needs to stop doubting me and stuff. Lena's like, oh, my God. I look around this kitchen. There has been so much cooked, so many chickens put into dishwashers.
52:04Ben Mandelker: it's like this sentiment sentimental moment where we're saying goodbye to this generic office it's like oh god over there is where we had the nature's best granola bars that crumble over everyone oh no remember over there that's where we had stack of styrofoam cup to drink water out of
52:22Ronnie Karam: i'll never forget this place my first office was little hole-in-the-wall where i had mice in drawers literally. Like you had mice in your drawers? You probably kidnapped those mice from somebody that you didn't like who owned mice.
52:38Ben Mandelker: It's just heartbreaking. I know what it was. Those were Masha's mice. Whoever
52:45Ronnie Karam: she was mad at back then had mice and she just kidnapped them. I pulled into a drawer. So then they're talking about how sad this is when we see flashbacks to, I don't know, like a year ago. And they're talking about how much money is tied up in all of this and um god they better get those car washes because this was just a three to four million dollar investment but the car washes were a 40 million dollar investment
53:11Ben Mandelker: oh my god how many how many mr coffees have to be have to be repossessed you know before this this this nightmare is over i mean god offices closing chickens going free it's just it's terrible. It's terrible what's happening to the McBees right now.
53:31Ronnie Karam: Seriously. And they're upset because Steven's not even there. And they're like, well, he's just probably taking a walk or something with Ali. And they're like, oh, Steven doesn't care about nothing.
53:41Ben Mandelker: So then, um... To Cole telling it to Steven. He's like, got some crazy news. They signed it. It's over. It's closing. Your swivel chair. It's gone. It's gone.
53:53Ronnie Karam: And Steven's like, wow, Cole, good job. Cole, hey, want to say hi to Ali? Look, Just taking a walk with Ali Steven not even pretending To care So then Galena they have to be out of there in a month They're like oh my god a month So meanwhile Now it's time to decorate For Galena's Halloween party Halloween One of my favorite holidays We figured
54:21Ben Mandelker: I started Doing the Halloween party years and years ago And it just kind of became a tradition and this party is going to be bittersweet because we just sold an office. So, yes, everyone, enjoy it. The last Halloween where we have access to plenty of pencils. Okay, everyone.
54:41Ronnie Karam: It will be hard doing this party without office. Next time we will have to do in car wash.
54:49Ben Mandelker: I will be sad that we will not be able to have the spooky sight of stacks of paper from staples nearby. Sad Halloween indeed.
55:00Ronnie Karam: We have to be careful where we put the bob for apples because you step over one point and you start getting sprayed with soap.
55:12Ben Mandelker: So, yeah. Next year's Halloween party, it's like, welcome to Just in the car wash. That would be freaky. the big thing that comes down things like whipping your face so they're putting all these like bloody hands hand and footprints on the wall i'm like why is there a bloody footprint on the wall was there like a zombie that's like i'm going to karate kick this wall down right now um so they are making it all nice it's and casey's like do you think any triggers will show up like a certain person named Masha?
55:53Ronnie Karam: She's like, oh, she better not. She's not invited. I will kill her fucking face off if she comes here. She's like, surely she won't. Didn't you hear about the dinner we had? We was having a family dinner, and then Christy was over at the lodge with all of us, and Masha like stormed in. She's like, what? Like completely out of blue? What?
56:18Ben Mandelker: Masha is very threatened by Christy. And I think she has access to cameras at the lodge. And I think that she uses them and she knows when Christy's over there. And so she will go over during a family dinner and she shows up like probably, but also like, I feel like you guys have your family dinner every Sunday at a certain time. And so she knows when to show up, but I don't know. I'm just thinking.
56:41Ronnie Karam: Oh no, Masha totally has. I think they're totally right that Masha's sitting there on the camera. It's like, oh, I'm going to go over now and see how they enjoy their dinner now. Hello, it's me, Masha. A hundred. So Galena's like, what is fucking wrong with her brain? And she's like, it's the cameras at the lodge. And she's like, oh, she has access to cameras? That was crazy. She's like, yeah, surely you won't do nothing with that information I just gave you. Bye.
57:12Ben Mandelker: so now we go to colin casey's house and jake and his lady tegan show up and um jake is like guess what crazy galena's back so i guess stretch sent me this i don't know who stretch is but they have someone on this farm named stretch which totally tracks like a dish so they're all watching
57:33Ronnie Karam: a video on this phone and they're like who does that look like and it's a galena they're like what did she just grab hold on wait and cole's like is this a scurrying movie then we look at the video and it's galena wearing a hoodie like a black hoodie but not covering her face at all like her little blonde pigtails are sticking out of this hoodie and she goes into the garage and she gets a shovel and she comes up to the cameras and stares straight into the cameras and just starts knocking all the cameras down galena we see your face you're looking into a camera galena
58:04Ben Mandelker: I know it's not the most discreet vandalism I hope they don't see my hair Hopefully nothing is recording me while I destroy the thing that's recording me
58:20Ronnie Karam: So they don't know that Casey has told her about all these cameras And also the last scene with Casey when Casey's like Uh oh I hope nothing goes wrong now that I've told you this And Galena goes I'll be right back just make it look like galena goes straight from the scene to getting a camera and knocking or getting a shovel and knocking everything down galena is very smooth when she commits crimes someone gives her a motive she's excuse me and then she just leaves and then comes back like
58:47Ben Mandelker: either like bloodied or like her hair is disheveled like no you were saying so um cole's like galena i don't know what she's doing and i don't know what's going on but i think she's having another
58:58Ronnie Karam: and breakdown so like you think yeah i'm like alina's crazy thank god for galina you people would not have a show do you understand every time galina comes on i'm like yes when she picked up that shovel i was like oh my god thank god for you the wind beneath my wings you're all i need in my life so now we go to the annual mcb halloween party steven and ally are dressed like a cowboy and a cowgirl. Wow. Don't you wear that costume enough to be on TV?
59:31Ben Mandelker: That is like the laziest costume for these people of all time. Now, I also think this Halloween party is funny because it's just the same people who always hang out with each other, but they just dress up in costumes, and then the costumes are just like what they wear to work. This is really just, this is a good metaphor for this show. um uh brayden's there and he's wearing a black and white mask so there's that as everyone's showing up in stupid outfits a lot of cow print a lot of people are dressed up as cowboys i really don't understand this as a halloween theme but like fine fine so they're all there and this and then they start it's just a big empty house with them all just standing around in it then
1:00:14Ronnie Karam: they start doing the um slow-mo intros where they're like oh it's galena she's like oh look it is galina look it's mrs mcb she's like it is mrs mcb okay guys we we get it yeah so then uh masha makes her entrance like it's masha they're like oh my god masha's here everybody masha's here guests will decide to show up in of course cowboy hat can you get any more fake
1:00:44Ben Mandelker: i'm like the answer is everyone apparently because everyone showed up in a cowboy hat has their costume but it's masha and galena's totally pissed off she's like i can't believe she had the fucking balls just to show up here by the way they're like again there's like 12 people at this party but they're doing a lot of shaky camera work and tight shots to make it look like it's like a really happening and active party but it's not um so they're like oh my god masha's here masha who invited her how did she know that she was supposed to come and so steven says that maybe his their dad invited her which is a strange strange thing since the dad's not even there
1:01:20Ronnie Karam: the dad is totally like this though the dad would do this but we all know production did it everybody i mean it was production but we saw last year the group trip where masha shows up and the dad's like whoops sorry told her you know come on the dad's so messy and i think it's killing the dad not to be on camera because he's like sending masha everywhere But also, you know, probably production. So it's just a bunch of people like, oh, my God, it's Masha and Galena slowly working herself up like to this fucking bitch. I'm going to kill her. Seems like you need to stay calm now. Remember, you are new Masha.
1:01:55Ronnie Karam: You are new Galena. We're going to stay calm. She was nothing like that.
1:02:01Ben Mandelker: Is it possible Masha is like one of those bomb defusing robots? Like she's not even a human. she's just a robot that like steven is steven senior is just controlling with a remote control like in in like a barn somewhere and like he's just like watching through her eyes and she's just like answering like he's just speaking to a microphone and making her mouth talk like a
1:02:21Ronnie Karam: like five nights of freddy's character you sound like that sincere from love island when he's talking about how he he can't be blamed for like kissing another girl he's like you know it's like when there's a bomb and then like you have to like cut a wire and you don't know what wire to cut so what does i have to do with you making out with multiple people they're all wires on a bomb
1:02:44Ben Mandelker: when you have like some really good vanilla ice cream but then you want to try the pistachio ice cream and like you like the pistachio ice cream i really like cookie dough ice cream that's
1:02:53Ronnie Karam: my favorite dough but i never had pistachio before so i tried the pistachio but i really
1:02:59Ben Mandelker: want my chocolate chip cookie now like there's nothing wrong with that or like if you see like a beautiful rose and you pick the rose and then you see another flower it's like really pretty
1:03:09Ronnie Karam: and you pick it too like why can't you have both flowers oh my god idiot so now uh galena is just uh we see them showing like everybody's passing around this footage of galena knocking out cameras and everyone's like what is she doing and jake says well obviously masha would know about her party because she watches every fucking camera. And so they're like, oh my god. And Ellie, the new Ellie's like, there's a lot that's like normalized. It's not normal. I mean, I guess it's normal to them. Like you didn't watch every episode of this show before you showed up here. Not buying it.
1:03:48Ben Mandelker: Then Cole was like, hey Galena, after her what she's doing now, she told my dad that he either needs to get her a ring by the time he goes to jail or they need to be done. And Galena's like, I will laugh through the pain, laughing through the pain. He's like, no, I'm not joking. She's like, oh, oh, wow. Calm down, Galena. Keep it calm, Galena. Stay calm. New Galena, new Galena, new Galena.
1:04:12Ronnie Karam: This guest is as subtle as Heather Gay. I mean, they're literally just all taking turns to go to Galena. Like, hey, Galena, did you hear about what Masha did? Okay, well, did you hear she was at that dinner? well did you hear masha did this did you hear masha did that they're like they get galena and they're just like come on galena please do something on this show we've got nothing and finally they work her ass up but it takes her a while i was proud of little galena because she could have gone there first thing and it took her like an hour and a
1:04:45Ben Mandelker: half and a few shots before she went in yeah so there's like a girl's table and ali and masha and Tegan and other Allie are all talking. Masha's like, girl talk am I right? Hey girlfriends and you know Tegan, they're just making talk about rings and everything and Masha's like oh look, she's so ready, Tegan's so ready to get married. You guys have been together so many years, right girlfriend? Just one of the girls.
1:05:14Ronnie Karam: Allie's like, well I mean I heard somebody else was ready for a ring. And she's like, well of course It's like, obviously, he's going to be gone, you know, in a month. We was just kind of talking about it, you know, the situation. And Allie's like, well, do you have to be married to, like, go see him in prison? She goes, oh, very good point. I write down to tell Steve.
1:05:38Ben Mandelker: Allie's like, I don't think anyone is close with Masha. And I don't talk to her unless I see her. So there's, like, no reaching out to me to be like, you know, whatever. But Galena, she checks on me every week. How's Summer? Send me pictures of summer. What's life like at the big city? You know, but it's like crickets on Masha's side. She doesn't even want to know what my city life is like. Getting manis and petties over at the local city nail salon. I don't think that Masha understands that she doesn't really have a relationship with Steve unless she has a relationship with us. But that's her fault.
1:06:09Ronnie Karam: Yeah, so they all hate Masha, but they're still pumping her for information and trying to get her to fight with Galena. So they're like, well, I mean, maybe you do need a ring. Like, how long have you been together? It's like two years, but it was never kind of normal relationship, you know, because we've always had crazy ex-lady over there being crazy. And Ali's like, who's the ex? Galena does. She's like, oh, right, got it. Never seen this show.
1:06:36Ben Mandelker: Yeah, yeah, I have no idea. So Masha's like, she literally made up the whole story that we were like best friends, and I wasn't best friends. And it's a little bit creepy because every time I look around, I can see Galena's eyes staring right at me like doll of Chucky, bride of Chucky, something very beautiful, better Russian of Chucky, you know? And I feel like moments you can just snap and do something crazy. I'm like, yeah, she's staring at you because there's eight people at this party and you guys represent like 25 % of the attendees.
1:07:07Ronnie Karam: This is so funny, though, because she's like, I can feel her staring at me. And then they cut to Galena standing right behind her over her shoulder, like, with a killer look, like, you will die.
1:07:19Ronnie Karam: So, Irina, the daughter, Galena's daughter, is like, do not drink, mother. She's like, I will be fine. I promise. Give me another shot. And so she's shooting, and she goes, if I'm in prison, Stephen will pick me up. I am kidding.
1:07:35Ben Mandelker: and Allie is like I'm just so confused there's so much that I'm learning so quickly because I haven't watched this on television I didn't realize the last time Galina and Masha saw each other was the Halloween party last year why is no one freaking out why is no one else concerned
1:07:54Ronnie Karam: so then we go to another thing we're all fascinated by Cole and Casey getting married so So Stephen is like, yeah, I really like this girl, Allie. She's just so great. I'm going to marry her. Cole's like, well, I think it's a little quick. And he's like, aren't you jealous just because you ain't married yet? It's been seven years for you. And he's like, okay, then give me a week because Casey's going to get mad at me if you get married first. So if you give me a week, then maybe I'll maybe propose to Casey or something. Oh, my God. The show is just so fucking romantic. kick like wow i wouldn't marry you for seven years not even after you had my child but now that it's a competition with my brother i'll do it let's beat him yeah it's like well okay fast
1:08:39Ben Mandelker: i will put off my love bombing for one week but you only have one week and then i get back to the
1:08:44Ronnie Karam: love bomb but i'm telling you better not be quicker than that because in six weeks i gotta call her a slut and a whore okay i'm out of schedule here you are the most pessimistic person about engagements
1:08:56Ben Mandelker: it's so um so yeah it's crazy so then uh casey walks by and says is that uncle jimmy and it's not um anyway there's just like they're milling about at this party doing things whatever masha goes up to tessa this is tessa's big moment and does like oh wait there nice to see you was
1:09:18Ronnie Karam: just in a big gray wig which is hilarious she's like who is she like bo peep or something i don't I don't know. It was so funny. Yeah, it looked like a nun. I don't remember what it was.
1:09:27Ben Mandelker: So funny. She's like, I was going to dress up like the Dribbledore, but they were out of those at the Spirit Halloween store.
1:09:34Ronnie Karam: Oh, hello, Tessa. So, when you show up there, little girl. So, when? I will see her. What do you mean? I'm Masha. I'm always present. So, okay. Now, listen here. Don't you go triggering Galena or nothing, because Galena's crazy. Okay? I want to see Galena go crazy or kill anybody or stab you to death. She'll do it, too. Do not trick her. Okay, cheers to girls. To girls not trick Ringgolene, am I right? Let's just protect the boys.
1:10:04Ben Mandelker: Luckily, Ringgolene's in a better place. She's not going to go and confront you or anything. It's like, hello, I'm here to confront her. Okay, never mind. Bye there.
1:10:11Ronnie Karam: I think this was the last straw. Like, oh, now you are talking to Tessa? Tessa? So she comes over. She's like, what are you doing here, you fucking whorebag?
1:10:24Ben Mandelker: and and masha's like no what huh she's like my blood when i see her my blood starts boiling and i'm like breathe galena breathe walk away breathe but unfortunately i suffocate and i cannot breathe so i confront her it's my party don't ever fucking show up at my very small halloween party where everyone dresses like the way they work it is my party a murder
1:10:48Ronnie Karam: whores if I want to. Famous song. You don't come to my party not invited, whorehead. Okay, listen here. Trick or whore? I guess it is whore.
1:11:00Ben Mandelker: She's like, you're so fucking delusional. No, you are delusional. Please, don't fucking show up at any of my parties. Whore. Whore. Whore. Whore crasher. And that's where it ends. Whore crasher.
1:11:18Ronnie Karam: uh so yeah um now galena's gonna murder masha what's gonna happen at the halloween party
