Yeah, she was testing Nathan, and the correct answer would have been, Oh, they've done a great job. I'm going to find out how they keep this done and keep that system operational, Captain. But instead he's like, That's what I've wanted the whole time. And I'm gone. Now they're doing it.

7:09Ronnie Karam: so wait maybe she was the one who went overboard and they didn't reverse it it wasn't the guy because she is wet, but so was the guy. I'm very confused. Can you tell?

7:18Ben Mandelker: She was like, you fell overboard. I feel like it was probably the guy.

7:27Ronnie Karam: It's over. It doesn't matter. So party van, they come. They're on their way to the restaurant. And Aisha, you know, Aisha's like, I'm just so grateful to be here. And, you know, everybody's been so sweet to me. Just kidding. She's like, it's a party van. It's so exciting.

7:49Ben Mandelker: It's a lot. I felt, I did feel quite bad for the guests at this restaurant because it was a lot of Asia just slowly making her way to the table.

8:01Ben Mandelker: So actually, but they're not there yet. Sorry. So Jen is, Jen decides to weigh in about bachelorette parties. And then that makes her think about the guy that she wants to marry. And she has a long laundry list that they sort of have this kind of like AI rendering of a guy next to her. And she's like, he has to be above 6 '2". I don't want any short kings. I don't want my kids to be weirdly short. Sorry. Nice smiles. I don't want to look like as nasty as he's for the rest of my life. Blue eyes. I would like some of my kids to have like blue eyes. A Bentley, hopefully. He's got to be ripped. uh it could be ripped like all over all over ripped like literally just i just want like a muscle i just want to i just want it to be abs with eyes that's what i want okay and um i don't want like skinny legs i want like also well endowed uh some you know something where big good nipples not too big i don't want pepperonis maybe like good luck jen good luck with this yes i think

8:53Ronnie Karam: connor's story from that hockey show yeah i want him to be tough and serious but like funny okay Okay, so your last thing is at least funny. You don't want, none of this has to do, it's not one thing. It's like, wow, it would be great to have a good person. Yeah. I would like a good guy who treats me well and treats my kids well. She's like, oh my God, he has to be hot, like six foot four. She's an idiot. So then Villa Banach, the party van comes and Aisha's freaking out, of course. And who's here? Honey. Honey. Hannah's here and Anastasia is also here.

9:28Ben Mandelker: oh my god it was yelling jumping around i know it was so lovely what a lovely reunion this was they all run up to asia and they hug and it's just it's so sweet and then um h is like i'm absolutely blown away but to be fair she also says that when she sees a pebble Look, there's a pirable. I can't believe it.

9:55Ronnie Karam: Then we see flashbacks of them being together on the boat years ago, seven years ago, to be exact. And we see Hannah, you know, Aisha's making a comment like, I love it. I love getting it up the outside with a finger that's been dipped in peanut butter. Hannah's like, you are the nastiest bitch I've ever met in my life. What's wrong with you?

10:24Ben Mandelker: So Hannah's like, my life has done an entire 180 since you last saw me. I got married. We bought a house. I had a beautiful daughter, Ava. I just won a little boat with Ronnie Karam. And my daughter's five next month. And the one thing I miss about yachting is you just form these bonds that are just like very hard to find in other places in your life. and what I miss about it are the hours, the small bunks, having no choice about what you eat, the hierarchy, the captains, the bosons, the walls, the ships, the water, just everything, the fish. I don't even like the fish. Just every single fucking thing about yachting.

10:57Ronnie Karam: That's what I don't miss. I hated this shit. I hated every fucking minute of this. Oh, Asha's just like, I like the free one. The end. So, Asha And Asha's like, well, thank you so much for organizing it. I can't have anything for you. Oh, wow, Hannah. So cool for you to be here. Wow, this is great. It's so nice to see you someplace that's not an opium den. That's crazy. Hey, does anybody have a spoon for Hannah to heat up her heroin in? That would be great.

11:31Ben Mandelker: So Hannah says that she and Sandy sat down last year, and they had a whole talk, and Hannah told her truth, and they just let bygones be bygones. And Sandy's like, we hugged it out. We forgave each other. And now we're in a great place, or as I like to call it, a not Norma place. See what I did there? You know, I just, I had to sit down with Hannah

11:55Ronnie Karam: and I said, listen, I hate your guts. And I hate, you know, all the drug running you're doing possibly right now. But I got to tell you this. You're not Norma. And that's something. Okay, let's shake hands.

12:11Ben Mandelker: By the way, Anna, don't forget to say hello to EC for me. El Chapo. Is that it? El Chapo.

12:20Ronnie Karam: El Chapo.

12:25Ronnie Karam: You know, it's nice, Hannah, that you got here all the way from Australia on that donkey you've been running drugs in. That mule. Pretty good. Good to see you. Don't go up against me, Anna. We sat down. She told her truth. I told my truth. We let bygones be bygones. We're back together. Me and Sandy, sisters. Can't stop hanging out with Captain Sandy right about now. So Hannah says that she's met her husband and daughter, and she's met her wife, and now they've got a nice friendship growing. So then Joy meets Anastasia, and Sandy's like, oh, during one season, our chef got fired? Oh my God, you replaced the chef.

13:09Ronnie Karam: Whoa, spoiler alert. Jeez. Well, you've been calling line all day. I have a giant deck outside and needed to furnish it and was worried about getting things that matched and getting things from different stores and making it all work together.

15:16Ronnie Karam: And we see flashbacks. I was going to tell you about Anastasia is the one who replaced the chef. Fire. Take the wind right out of my cells.

15:26Ben Mandelker: Did Anastasia replace Chef Mila? I think so.

15:33Ronnie Karam: I think so.

15:36Ben Mandelker: I remember she stepped in and did all that stuff.

15:42Ronnie Karam: It wasn't after Kiko. Yeah, I couldn't remember if it was Kiko or Mila. Because who came after Kiko? Duska?

15:51Ben Mandelker: No, Kiko came... kiko after kiko that led to tom i believe oh because remember uh hannah was really upset about kiko leaving and then the malia stuff and everything um but uh i think dushka was on the season where there was that guy matt who was like a real douchebag and like after like one day he's like my my blower back hurts i gotta leave he like abandoned the ship and they had to bring on

16:18Ronnie Karam: for like the day yeah i forgot that anastasia dushka was the best that she was a classic and she was just like a what what even was she on the other boat they're like well this other boat was passing we said please someone cook and a lady came over and we said you know how to cook she said i thought you said cookie we had to give her some cookies but she did also make us some

16:41Ben Mandelker: terrible food so we were thankful for that it was like great steaks she's like douche all she could say it was douche go um i think she was like on that boat tonight douche go all right well fingers i think they had like some pre-packaged meals on that on that boat and she just was like

17:01Ronnie Karam: in charge of heating them up i remember though i didn't remember anastasia did that until these flashbacks and came flooding back but the only time i remember a actual crew member replacing a chef was the rocky situation i'll never forget that one that was that was a classic oh my god

17:20Ben Mandelker: yes and she was putting grenadine on the oysters yes well there was and there was one season where they i guess was that the episode where they were all cooking there's one episode with like the whole on one of the below decks where they just were all in the kitchen trying to cook something but that gosh i don't know there's a lot a lot of lore at this point so anastasia i can't remember was it Anastasia or Anastasia? I just really can't remember at this point. Do you remember? I think it's Anastasia. Okay, we're going with Anastasia, but if it's Anastasia, just know that we acknowledge that we thought about it for a second.

17:53Ben Mandelker: So she basically is like, yeah, that was, you know, back then we were all single and wild and free. And I left yachting six years ago and I bought a business and got married, had a kid and Aisha's one of the only people where I would literally drop everything and travel the world to see her for one night. I thought this was, I got kind of like sad and wistful actually watching this because, um, I don't know. I feel like I think to be a yachty, it's, it seems like it's a wild chapter of your life where you are traveling and like, it's really, really hard, but there's like lots of wild fun times.

18:28Ben Mandelker: And like, there is partying and hookups and you're getting yelled at. It feels like it is weirdly being like in the military or something. And you're just, it's this crazy chapter that you really can only do when you're young. And then you move on to a new chapter of your life. And then you look back and it's like, Oh, this is a, this is a chapter I can never go back to. I don't know. For some reason I, I thought that like, it made me reflect about, about that. And I don't know.

18:53Ronnie Karam: Maybe with full being a yachty. You're like, God, I miss it. I miss the seas. You know,

19:01Ben Mandelker: I was like, I need to get back out there.

19:05Ronnie Karam: I'm seized. Still go to bed every night holding a squeegee. Just remembering the days. Yeah, memories. I don't dwell because, you know, I get upset. Yeah. So now Nathan is talking to Joe and Max, and he's like, so you held it down well, did you? Well, not too bad. Me and the boys were warriors. I couldn't have done it without them. boys where are we going together in the end exactly and we will all go down together yes we will all go down together

19:44Ben Mandelker: so um nathan is like captain showed me the photos like yes it's the yachting ready it's like yeah it looks good which is for joe saying that like the implication that like we've been on a boat that was not ready for the seas. So, yeah.

20:00Ronnie Karam: And Max is saying, oh, we are good, bro. We are good on the deck. Let's talk tomorrow. Let's talk tomorrow about it. No, I love that you're back, bro. Having your energy and your work ethic around the boat, especially when you tell Captain Sandy that Joe has been putting sugar in the gas tank. It's going to be great. Wait a minute. What do I do? When she put my way.

20:23Ben Mandelker: so nathan tells us um when i got back on the boat i would actually consider appointing mad max the chaos agent on steroids as lead deckhand over like see at that point like could you like listen to the sentence you just said and do you want to amend it mad max the chaos agent as your lead

20:40Ronnie Karam: deckhand i mean yeah sir sir yeah and he wants it he wants max because um max is better than someone he cannot trust i mean one thing you really have to be um as a cleaner of decks is trustworthy you really need this is basically it's like a secretary of defense kind of a position

21:02Ben Mandelker: it's huge it's a big one but also like maybe earn joe's trust a little bit like why don't you say you did a great job i know we had a rough start but i am so impressed with the way that you rallied you're wonderful you could be a bosun you like you like give him give him his flowers or at least fill him up with gas that way he doesn't feel insecure about his position and comes for you

21:30Ronnie Karam: well he's not going to do that he says you know i i tried to tell captain sandy i couldn't trust joe but you know he was the best candidate at that point but now he's not and i'll say it with a smile on my face. Okay. Well, you're going to get turned down and she's going to have that same smile on her face. So have fun with that. She's going to be like, really? So you don't want to promote the person who did the most amazing las I've ever seen in my life. Whoa. I told Norma, you might want to upload the picture of this las to your Tinder profile. It might actually get

22:04Ben Mandelker: clicked on for once um shake that las so asia is um the way to bring out all these cup of noodles and it's just like oh my god i love noodles and she talks about how much she loves noodles and we see flashbacks of her eating noodles over the years and then max is asking nathan about the baby and Max is like oh having a family bro love that please remember that you have these fucking kids in family and this is like he's like playing with a kid and then Max then now jumps into a story about his family that we've sort of heard before that one just thinks it's like just gonna be a little bit of you know some texture for the scene not realizing we're actually setting up an international thriller by the end of the episode

22:59Ronnie Karam: Yeah, he says when he was 16, his parents divorced, his mother left, and the dad just found someone right away and basically left him alone. 17, by myself, no parents, no one at home. So I was just doing party, and some people bring food, stuff, barbecue for me to eat. So thank you to Yachting.

23:21Ben Mandelker: I love the random angel barbecue donors that he got in France.

23:27Ronnie Karam: People are like, you're lonely. I brought you some barbecue.

23:31Ben Mandelker: I brought you a baguette. It's lathered in bullseye barbecue sauce.

23:37Ronnie Karam: Yeah, that's sad. Divorce stories are so sad. But somehow I remembered this as him being like a kid, like a little kid. So he's like 17, all alone in the house. So it's sometimes hard to not be. Well, I moved out when I was 15. What are you fucking taught? Like I can't even imagine being like, I'm 17. What do I do for dinner now that I don't have anybody giving me dinner?

24:02Ben Mandelker: Like, oh God, Max is alone. He's only 17. On the edge of. So then Aisha, Sandy and Hannah and Anastasia are talking about the wedding. And Hannah's like, it's the beginning of such an amazing phase of your life. It's when you start to realize that you absolutely hate the current phase of your life, which is yachting for you. Okay. But then once you get married, you can then start wearing lovely caftans and realise that you just spent so much time on a tiny little box on the high seas with people that you hate. So enjoy that.

24:36Ronnie Karam: It's so nice getting off of the boat and where you don't have to resent the captain. And then you get a husband and you realise there's someone new to resent. There's someone brand new to resent. And it's on land. So you're going to love it. And Sandy's like, wow, you're around married people, married people, around a baby, around another baby. You're going to get married and have a baby. That's what happens. That's what happens, Aisha.

25:02Ben Mandelker: Is this the little Aisha I carried? Is this the little girl who stuck her finger up her bum?

25:17Ronnie Karam: Bung hole, bung set. Bung hole, bung set. Yeah, you know, you just, you become who you hang around. You know, I started hanging around Gigi Fernandez, and Norma's still running into nets everywhere we go.

25:36Ben Mandelker: If I were a he-man, I'd have the very same haircut. Sorry, I just, I love that musical, you know?

25:47Seeing Hannah and Anastasia and their families, and Nathan has a family, and it makes me want a family. It's got nice to talk about it. Well, you know, it's like a new train of thought. I've just hopped on the new train of thought now. Choo-choo! Babies! Babies!

26:03Ronnie Karam: I hope to get pregnant and birth a maraca.

26:10Ben Mandelker: so Sandy's like alright guys I'm out of Fiddler on the Roof song so I'm just gonna do a little Russian dance home okay it's good for the knees I'll see you back on the yacht okay does anyone have a bottle for me to put on my head while I walk over there thanks

32:54Ben Mandelker: Man interrupt. When they first showed the unknown number saying, I need you, Max. I need you. I felt like they were trying to imply like, ooh, maybe this is like Hannah, like trying to sex late at night. Because, you know, they show that there was this like moment. And Max is like, oh, I've always had a crush. She's the booby girl. And she adjusts his shirt and everything. But like, we know that Hannah would not. But I was like, I was like, this is someone else. but I feel like they're trying to make us think that this is Hannah. I was not expecting it to go in the direction it did go, but I was like, what's happening here?

33:28Ronnie Karam: Yeah. Yeah, that was a mysterious, and he was just ignoring the mysterious number. So Aisha announces that Nathan's back, and Joe's like, fuck me. Fuck me, man. And now the deck crew get together, and Nathan's like, I didn't realize we were at a different marina. It's good to be back. You didn't realize you were at a different marina? You're doing great so far, Kali. You're doing great, Kali.

34:01Ben Mandelker: So I'm expecting at this point that he's going to announce that Max can be lead deckhand. He doesn't do that, though. He just says, like, I'm looking forward to getting back into it. And Joe's asking how his back is. And he goes, it's good, but I'll be delegating a lot more, unfortunately. And so Joe's like, so less manpower. and he's like yeah more brains less manpower so joe is telling us i'm sorry are you known for that

34:24Ronnie Karam: no one no one needs a deckhand for their brains get the fuck out of here just get more bolding

34:29Ben Mandelker: more bolding um joe's like we need four able men on deck if you're not 100 why are you even here okay now you also settle down this guy is injured so he's gonna do take a more administrative role and he's going to delegate more of the physical stuff. I don't think it's honestly that crazy. Don't make me advocate for Nathan here. But he's like, yeah, you guys will have to lift a little bit more stuff. It's okay. You'll get by. So Nathan is -

34:58Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I'm not with you on that only because this is a physical job. If you can't do it, I don't know. And Nathan's also an asshole, so that's not helping.

35:11Ben Mandelker: I think that there are ways. I think it's, I think like he can be, he could do certain physical things, but I think that he, I feel like as Bosun, there's a lot of administrative stuff that isn't necessarily physical that he can do and it'll be fine. I think it's just like, I think Joe is just trying to find some sort of crack to try to exploit it and rise up in the ranks. Yeah.

35:37Ronnie Karam: So Nathan's like, anything I can do better now going into the seventh charter from anyone? Anyone? Okay. Meeting adjourned. Well, actually, we've got a little system on how to deflate and inflate. If you can just hear us out, it's pretty big. So I'm bringing this to the, it's an inflate-deflate meeting. I've called it.

35:58Ben Mandelker: And so Nathan is, Nathan's like, okay, I love it. Let's get to it, get into it. and so um so then joe is now telling coop like he says he's here to dedicate but he doesn't fucking do well anyway and we we haven't got the manpower so what the fuck is he gonna do here i'm gonna need you lad more so than ever hey guys it's page from giggly squad okay can we all agree that hosting is so much fun and i really do love it. Every weekend it's come over for snacks, let's make dinner together, and somehow the second you put out a fruit platter, it seems that bugs show up before your friends do. This is why I have to have my Zeevo flying insect trap.

36:43You plug it in and you let it do all the work. It's specially designed blue and UV light attracts the bugs you didn't know you had. And wow, did we have a lot. Like house flies, fruit flies, gnats, and then with Zeevo, bam. next thing you know the pests are caught in the sticky cartridge and away from your yummy treats without any mess or strong odors the best part is the design is actually sleek and curved so it hides the bugs it catches keeping them out of sight and when the cartridge is full you just grab the no mess tab throw it in the trash pop in a new cartridge and then you're done no mess no stress so whether you're hosting a dinner party or spending an afternoon baking treats with all your friends and you want to focus on hosting and not constantly swatting at bugs, Zeevo has you covered with 24-7 bug protection.

37:31Plug in a Zeevo flying insect trap so you can work smarter, not harder, and actually enjoy your time at home. Hey, before your Q3 call, I've got the campaign brief ready, built from last quarter's data and the competitive landscape. Great. Did you include the differentiation angle the CMO asked for? Already in there. Three angles no competitors using right now. Just need your approval. Approved. Thanks. Oh, agents, where would we be without you? Hmm. Somewhere with a lot more tabs open. Create your first Monday agent in minutes at monday.com.

38:10Ronnie Karam: Yeah, Nathan has a good attitude when they're like, well, we've been keeping the lives real clean. We know how to deflate things now. And he's like, great, keep it. Okay, get to work. And he's like, Joe, Joe's attitude, I can tell he's not here for me. He's here for himself. Dun, dun, dun. So then Joe's like, well, we've got a leader who can't lead and someone that can't do manpower. I'm here to delegate. Oh, I mean, what the hell? And Coop's like, oh, no, I know. Don't worry about it.

38:40Ben Mandelker: You're still my daddy. So in the bridge, it's time for the preference sheet meeting. Dreader number seven. Okay, so Aisha, I'm sorry, Cassandra is a luxury realtor from Orlando, Florida. And her husband Jeff are planning a trip of a lifetime to celebrate Cassandra's birthday. They mainly sell real estate to roller coasters who've retired from the game. Yeah, Jeff is a self-proclaimed thrill seeker and is hoping for water toys and fun. And joining them are Cassandra's friends, Louis Lisa, Tasha, John, and Hillary with her husband, Brad. No one likes Brad. Oh, no. Described by a friend that's a type 8, Cassandra might have a list of intricate demands from service from morning to night.

39:34Oh, God. Here's the bad news. That was the bad news. It's well.

39:42Ronnie Karam: It's worse. You know why it's going to rain? Because Cassandra told this guy to rain. Damn, Cassandra.

39:49Ben Mandelker: Could someone call Phil Collins and tell him to stop? Stop wishing for it, okay? Some of us need sunshine.

39:58Ronnie Karam: Yeah, okay. Well, we're going to hopefully get off the dock. Maybe it'll just go around us. But you know what? If it does rain, I want someone to send, what's the guy? Jeff out on the deck and tell him to tilt his head up towards the sky and open his mouth and close his nose. Then he'll feel like he's being water tortured. He's a thrill seeker.

40:22Ben Mandelker: So now Max gets another text. And it says, Max, please call me. It's your father. I need you. I'm trapped in Tunisia. I need money or it'll be hard. Now, why don't you just lead with that, by the way? That should be your opening text. Not, I need you. I need you.

40:40Ronnie Karam: Yeah, so I need money. Yeah. So Max rings and he answers. And his father is there. And he's like, oh, I just, I don't know. I need money. I don't have bank account. I need money. And Max is like, my father after years called me. And he's in deep shit. Way urgent. He had enrolled into like a criminal organization of laundering money. Oh, what the fuck, dad? What the fuck?

41:06Ben Mandelker: So Max goes and tells Sandy. Max looks like he's seen a ghost. he's got this look on his face and asia's like right or like right around the corner so she's gonna she listens in and max goes in and he's like he's like i don't even know where to start my dad is in tunisia and some criminal organization asked him to receive a check and put them on his bank accounts and withdraw the money and then he was he was doing this to make a bit of extra money and now the bank saw the fraud so they canceled he lost his bank account so he can't give money to these criminals and they're gonna basically kill him and now max is thinking like it's like saying to his dad leave the country but he can't leave the country because crime and so now max is like i guess i'll go to tunisia and he's like across the desert to get him out of the countries what the fuck is that and it's like yeah i said his dad can't leave the country because he doesn't have the money so now he's going to go to tunisia with money to get the dad but also if the banks

42:15Ronnie Karam: caught him aren't you helping him run from the law presumably i don't i don't the situation didn't

42:24Ben Mandelker: make total sense to me i feel like the guy just needs money to pay off the criminals and then he can figure start figuring out how to get back to france i have no idea but it's crazy so this is crazy and you can't be going to get your dad and and help him escape the mob and then

42:48Ronnie Karam: over the borders when he's in trouble in that country probably with the law like no no just say no. I don't think you just trick into those places. Sandy's like, can I give you some advice? Let me give you some advice. That's a rat. That's a rat. Queen of Lazaret. This is not helping, Sandy. Okay, well, I'm going to give you some advice. Don't become a heroine head like Hannah. Look at her. She just looked miserable all day. Okay, here's what you do.

43:23Ben Mandelker: Tell your dad that if they want the money, they got to call this number. And that number is Norma. And then she'll take so long trying to take care of their needs that your dad can sneak out of the country.

43:38Ronnie Karam: Try it. Listen, tell your dad, I know it's really hard, but something that might make him feel better is finding someone as desperate as he is. Norma, we've got a guy for you, finally.

43:51Ben Mandelker: Has your dad thought about serving them some brands? You know, it really does wonders for people's attitudes.

43:58Ronnie Karam: Here's what we're going to do. We're going to send Norma to Tunisia to confront the gangs. There's never been a man who hasn't run from Norma. Okay.

44:08Ben Mandelker: Tell your dad, I'll pay you the money after you go on a date with Norma. And just watch. Just watch.

44:22Ronnie Karam: so he's like oh i want to do what my father didn't do for me i'm taking barbecue to tunisia and so he's crying and he's he's saying he's gonna do an act of love for his father even after everything he did i will not let him go and that's such a beautiful reflection of who you are yes devoted son no very stupid yeah and he's like tomorrow i go i take my father first things i go in libya i'm going to libya straight he's like you're going going right in the middle of danger what are you doing he's like i made for this i made for it oh no he's seen too many movies so

45:07Ben Mandelker: he's like when when he didn't hit me when i was 17 and they kicked me out of my house i want to show him that even now 12 years later i am going to help him and i'm going to love him and i'm going to show him what his family what is meant for the link of blood you know is infinite and if i can protect my father that makes me someone i'm like oh but like can you protect him like without going

45:31Ronnie Karam: into libya is there a different path we can go no because we can't send him money i mean you can't just send it to the check cashing place, I guess. I mean, I don't know. So Sandy goes, oh, wow. Wait, wait, wait. Just so you know, Libya has a warning. Do not travel to Libya for any reason due to crime, terrorism, unexploded landmines. New threat alert. Someone named Norma has just arrived and she's terrified.

45:59Ben Mandelker: They say, do not go to Libya. Norma's favorite restaurant just opened up there and she's currently in the vicinity. So stay away.

46:08Ronnie Karam: Wow. I texted Norma. There was a desperate man in Libya and she's already, she's already jetted over there. Jeez.

46:15Ben Mandelker: I just got a text from Norma. It says, did you hear about the new Panera bread that opened up in Libya? And I said, honey, don't go there. She said too late. I'm already in line.

46:28You know what?

46:29Ronnie Karam: I'm not going to sugarcoat anything, Max. I'm going to tell you this. All right. You know what? Suck on this piece of candy while I tell you, It'll make you feel better. Okay. Doing what you're doing is not smart. Okay. Now you're going to risk your life. And you know, I love you. There, I said it. I care about you. But you're a grown man and it's your decision. Don't do this or you're fired.

46:51Ben Mandelker: It's your decision. But if you decide to leave in the middle of this TV show to go to Libya, I don't know if I can help you much more beyond that. Have a nice trip, Ali. See you next fall. Yeah, this is crazy. I hope he does not go. I hope he goes to authorities.

47:09Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I hope he doesn't go either. What the hell? Your dad was in fucking crime. Let him deal with it.

47:14Ben Mandelker: Yeah, fuck this dad who abandoned you, left you to a life of barbecue, and now you have to go bail him out in a foreign country, in a country that is safe, where you're going to have to bring cash or something to bail him out. And quite frankly, you're dealing with criminals. I'm not even sure that this is going to help in the first place.

50:26Ronnie Karam: This episode is sponsored by Nature Raised Farms. There are so many complicated things on Bravo. Like opening the front door on Summer House. Or figuring out how to wear a Linfinity dress.

50:35Ben Mandelker: Or understanding Tom Schwartz's purpose on the Valley. In a world full of confusing choices, thank goodness for Nature Raised Farms. They believe that food shouldn't be complicated.

50:44Ronnie Karam: Especially chicken. But the freezer aisle often makes it that way. Too many options, too many additives, too many compromises. Do I like complicated chicken? No. No. Chicken should be fun. Complicated chicken, not fun.

50:59Ben Mandelker: Chicken should meet a higher standard. And Nature Ray's Farms is free from gluten, dairy, and soy. There are no seed oils and no artificial ingredients. Also, Nature Ray's Farms chicken is a good source of fiber and only between 8 to 12 grams of fat per serving dependent on the product. Chicken, that's just chicken.
