0:47Ronnie Karam: It's Lisa and Lexi, two women at very different stages of life who have this unexpected age gap friendship that somehow works perfectly. Lisa's in her 50s, glamorous, completely unfiltered, and has the stories and hot takes to prove it. Lexi is 30, runs her own shoe brand, and brings her own take on the beautiful disaster that is modern life.

1:07Ben Mandelker: They get into everything. Dating, divorce, beauty maintenance, emotional survival, men's hygiene. You know, the important stuff. And the conversations are funny, raw, and just the right amount of too honest.

1:23Ben Mandelker: Find Don't Lie to Me on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and wherever you get your podcasts.

1:51Ben Mandelker: Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. This is part two of the recap. If you missed part one, Go check out your podcast feed. It's right there. And without further ado, let's get right back into the recap. So Meredith says, okay, basically, I originally was going to do a DJ set that night.

2:11Ronnie Karam: Were you asked to do a DJ set?

2:13Ben Mandelker: Were you asked to do a DJ set? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Can you seal your mouth like a lawsuit? That did Bronwyn. Shut up, Bronwyn.

2:26Ronnie Karam: Bronwyn's mouth dropped to the ground and she was completely, she didn't know what to say. It was so good. And then we see a flashback to Bronwyn being like, well, you know, there are lawsuits and there were some that went on in my work, but they're sealed and now I cannot discuss them. Cannot discuss them.

2:50Ben Mandelker: You know what? I'm done. We don't need to go any further. I don't have to justify myself or my songwriting skills or my DJ abilities.

2:59Ronnie Karam: You can't stop talking. Well, you do. You do. Because when you embarrass yourself in front of everybody, you should have justification for it.

3:06Ben Mandelker: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

3:07Ronnie Karam: I don't need to speak anymore. I don't need to speak.

3:09Ben Mandelker: I will not engage. I'm not going to engage.

3:12Ronnie Karam: But wait a minute. Did you think that that song wasn't going to hurt her feelings?

3:18Ben Mandelker: No, it was not intended to hurt your feelings at all. It was just intended for everyone to laugh together as a group. and point fingers at you, but you were supposed to laugh also and not have your feelings hurt at that.

3:29Ronnie Karam: Oh, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Okay, so maybe you came to the event. You thought Bronwyn's gonna think this was funny? Well, that's what you're telling me? Mm-hmm. Well, you thought I was gonna think it's funny? Mm-hmm. Is that what you're saying?

3:39Ben Mandelker: We did think that you guys would think it was funny. Yes, actually, that's correct. Yes.

3:44Ronnie Karam: I thought you would think it would think it's hysterical. I thought you would think that they think that everyone thinks that it's hysterical. It's, like, so good. It's so good. Thank you. Really?

3:55Ben Mandelker: And after I started crying during my toast about how important this trip was for me? And how important everyone in the room was for me? You still thought this was a great idea? Really? We did.

4:05Ronnie Karam: Yes. Well, I did. I can't speak for Lisa. I sure did. I sure did. I mean, that was great.

4:13Ben Mandelker: Well, I did. She's like, well, I did not find it funny. I didn't find it funny at all. It was hurtful. It was, frankly, embarrassing. And I don't mean just for me. I think the two of you embarrassed yourselves. I don't feel embarrassed. Well, you should be.

4:27Ronnie Karam: I'm not. I'm not embarrassed. I don't get embarrassed by my art.

4:32Ben Mandelker: No one intended to hurt your feelings, but we did laugh about it quite a bit afterwards.

4:41Ronnie Karam: Well, no one asked you to perform. No one asked you to do anything but come and try again. All I wanted you to do was come and try again. And after last year when I told everybody that your husband was cheating on you, when I saw him at dinner with another woman, even though it was a business dinner and everybody knew it and I knew it and I was just trying to fuck with you. So, you know, I don't understand why you would be mad at me.

5:03Ben Mandelker: Well, my wig and I are genuinely sorry that our actions or my actions, I can't speak for anyone else, not even my wig, hurt your feelings.

5:13Ronnie Karam: Okay, so we can start there and I'll take that and I won't bring it up again. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. That's all I needed other than powder. Other than powder. Does anybody have any powder? I appreciate it. I appreciate it. So, Mary's so impressed. She's like, wow, Meredith. Meredith apologized. Now that's being a boss lady. Yeah, but I've been waiting seven years for an apology from Meredith. She didn't do anything to you with me. Yeah, what did she do? Name one thing in all of these years That Meredith has done to you You nut game

5:52Ben Mandelker: So Whitney's like We'll have a female president Ulians will visit Earth Dinosaurs will come back Before I receive an apology from Meredith So then they're all waiting For now Lisa to do her Apology Why is everyone looking at me? What's going on? You guys want me to sing again? Hypocrisy and bullshit No Lisa Except you have to apologize. You hurt someone.

6:19Ronnie Karam: Yeah, but I don't feel bad about the performance. Like, I still don't feel badly about it. Like, I was observing a lot of hypocrisy and bullshit. And there were things that were done intentionally in the moment and at the time. You know? So I'm so sick of that. I'm not apologizing.

6:35Ben Mandelker: Wait, so you think that there was nothing wrong about what you did?

6:41Ronnie Karam: No. No. And you know what? I'm not going to give you that. Because I won't say things I don't mean.

6:48Ben Mandelker: So Angie's like, but you went on her trip. You took over her party. Well, I'll write a check, but I'm not giving an apology. But Meredith apologized, and we all know she's a fucking bitch. Do you want an apology that's not meant?

7:03Ronnie Karam: I don't do apologies that aren't meant. No, no, no.

7:07Ben Mandelker: I don't want shit from you. Because now this is the thing where Bronwyn now leans all the way back. She puts her hands forward towards her knees and puts her head all the way back. Like she's like stretching out like a big piece of taffy. She's like, no, you know what? I don't want shit from you. Okay, I would love for you to not look in my fucking direction.

7:24Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I don't even want to, honestly. Why would I look in your direction? There's no Grammys over there.

7:30Ben Mandelker: Okay, well, you know what? Next time we all do something and you don't want to be there, just, you know, just say, just be like, whoa. Okay, fine. Yep.

7:37Ronnie Karam: Wow, you're such a baddie. Hey, does anybody have a cigarette for Bronwyn to smoke? Can we get a cigarette so she can be such a baddie? Yeah, let's see what a baddie you are. Hypocrisy and bullshit. She starts singing it again. And Heather's like, that's not even a song. It's barely a riff. Then why have you been singing it for the past week? Why have you guys sung it in every single scene perfectly?

8:01Ben Mandelker: I mean, Heather's not wrong. It's barely a riff. But whatever it is, is perfect and amazing. and will be singing it for a very long time. This is 2026.

8:16Ronnie Karam: You don't have to have a lot to count as a song. They had four words and a musical phrase that repeated over and over again. That's it.

8:26Ben Mandelker: Yeah, that's true. It's basically up there with 1-800-CARS-4-KIDS. Oh, my God.

8:33Ronnie Karam: Don't start. Don't start with that, because that is a song. That's a banger. So Mary's like, well, we're done here. You know, you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip when they start laughing. Yeah, but it's not about squeezing blood from turnips. It's about authenticity. You know what? And there's a difference. I'm authentic.

8:51Ben Mandelker: No, it's about apologizing and just being able to take accountability. You know what? If I hurt you, I'm sorry. Yeah, but like nobody wants an empty apology here. Like no fucking person at this table wants an empty apology. I think they actually all want an empty apology.

9:06Ronnie Karam: Yeah. She's like, no. And this was her on girls' trip, too, when they're like, why aren't you apologizing for being late, Lisa? She's like, no, I'm not going to apologize. I need a minute so that I could really feel that. So when I really feel it, I'll come back.

9:24Ben Mandelker: I mean, the funny thing is, an apology is supposed to be about the other person. And Lisa's like, no, an apology is about me and how I feel in that moment.

9:34Ronnie Karam: Well, it's also admitting faults, you know, when you say you're sorry. When someone's like, are you sorry for killing your wife? But I didn't kill my wife. But are you, apologize. No, I didn't kill my wife. You know, she's like, no, that an apology equals a crime. And I don't think that me expressing myself musically in such a brilliant way was a crime. Okay.

9:55Ben Mandelker: Right. Well, I think, though, that you can say, I'm sorry that my song caused you to feel bad about yourself. but you don't have to apologize for singing the song.

10:12Yeah, you could do that to make everything easier.

10:15Ronnie Karam: But I respect that, no, I don't regret it. I did it on purpose. And I don't care if you're crying and pretending to be a victim. I'm not giving you a sorry. No, I'm on Team Barlow for this. I don't think they owe anybody an apology. It was a song. And especially when they clip back and show it over and over again, they're like, hypocrisy and bullshit. and then they cut to Bronwyn trying to be really upset about it and Branton just smiling and nodding his head a lot. He loved it. And I think that that is the best fucking revenge. And I wouldn't apologize either.

10:46Ben Mandelker: Well, it's kind of like the difference between homicide and manslaughter, I believe. Watch me get myself right into a hole here. Homicide, I think, is like killing someone with intention and what manslaughter is that wasn't planned or was an accident or something like that. You killed them, but you didn't mean it. It's like you didn't mean it. But you're still kind of accountable. It's still your fault. Yeah, but do I have to apologize for ear slaughter? No. Won't do that. You know, I don't even know. I don't know why I'm taking a stance on this. It's a stupid point. I think Lisa is hilarious.

11:21Ben Mandelker: I think Lisa was in the right. I think the song was great. I think it was brilliant. I think you're saying both things are bad.

11:27Ronnie Karam: Murder and manslaughter are both bad things. And just because one is more severe than the other, you still have to kind of apologize or pay penance for it right yeah that's kind of what

11:39Ben Mandelker: i'm saying is that like it's you know what it is as a in the world of reality tv this was not such a big deal and bromwin you know saw i think a way to make herself be the the one crying in the corner that everyone rallies support around it's my party i can cry if i want to yada yada yada and lisa should you know like they were just doing a stupid song and really anyone else would have just like laughed at them and been like look at these two twits up there doing this like you know third grade slumber party song at this party they were making a fool of themselves but instead bromwin actually just elevated it by being a crybaby etc but ultimately her feelings were hurt and like i am of the mindset like i never want to hurt someone's feelings um to their face and so like i would be like i'm sorry i'm sorry i hurt your feelings but i wouldn't apologize for the song however it's reality tv so different rules yeah i don't know if someone if someone had told

12:36Ronnie Karam: everybody that my husband was cheating on me and tried to like hurt my marriage when he was at a business dinner i i would not apologize for upsetting that person with a funny song so i think i'm just gonna land on lisa barlow here i don't give a fuck cry all you want to lebron win and then leaving her own party. Oh, it was such a disaster. I loved it. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Crappens commercial. Losing weight can be like trying to roll a wheelbarrow up a hill.

15:50Ronnie Karam: I'm sick of things stressing me out. The other day I was running late and nearly ran over an armadillo. I felt so bad.

15:56Ben Mandelker: I'll tell you about stress. Imagine performing a cabaret ten times a week.

16:01Ronnie Karam: Or learning a 17th language like French Peruvian. Bon Gisissimo.

16:06Ben Mandelker: This is why I watch so much TV. And Amazon Prime definitely comes in handy. It's a great way to shift your mood. Yeah, but everyone's always like recommending a million shows. Like, you got to watch this. You got to watch that. I'm at a point where I don't say, what do I have to watch? Now I'm all about, how do I want to feel?

16:23Ronnie Karam: Yeah, the feeling I chase is dark and moody. That's why I go towards crime shows.

16:27Ben Mandelker: Oh, I'm a comedy girly. I will rewatch the same comedy over and over again because it's so comforting to me. Or actually, sometimes it's actually sports. There are times where I don't even care about the teams. I just like being part of a live event, especially with some snacks.

16:40Ronnie Karam: Snacks are a part of the feeling. I love a cracker.

16:42Ben Mandelker: So here's where I'm all about Prime. You can have your shows, your movies, your sports, but you also get fast shipping on the things we like to have when we watch stuff, like the perfect snack, conveniently delivered right to your door for a recap-worthy watch session.

16:58Ronnie Karam: That's how Prime gives us the power to just not find the feeling we crave, but also to let us experience it to the fullest.

17:04Ben Mandelker: I'm having 30 to 40 positive feelings. Wow!

17:07Ronnie Karam: Shows you can't wait for, deliveries you don't wait for. From streaming to fast shipping, it's on Prime. Lisa says, yeah, you know what? Apologies for me. That's very expensive. You know, it's like Birkin level. I'm not saying I'm sorry. I'm not doing it. All right, well, moving on. We have a much larger issue in here. We need to know.

17:32Ben Mandelker: Well, what's going on? Did something happen in the sisterhood? Well, Whitney, the fact that you had to construct some kind of team of 50-year-old women, as opposed to a duo, which we all know a duo is acceptable. A duo singing a song at a party is acceptable. But a team, unacceptable. You decide to build up a team to try to take me down is malignant and pathetic. Malignant.

18:02Ben Mandelker: Malignant. It is very malignant. Could you elaborate?

18:07Ronnie Karam: You told a team of people You were told a team of Older people are coming after you? Me Right here I'll admit it right now In San Francisco I own it I 100 % lied And I did talk shit about Meredith with Whitney But since then I've sincerely apologized And she's forgiven me So suck it And we see the flashback to taking Meredith to a park bench, which is one of my favorite settings on this show. And she's like, Meredith, I denied it, but I did talk about you. I was upset with you already, and I'm sorry. Well, being honest and apologetic is really all I care about. At the end of the day, all you got is malignancy for malignancy.

18:56Ronnie Karam: So thank you.

18:58Ben Mandelker: It's okay. I forgive you because I want you to be on my team. I mean, not my team. I mean, my group of similarly minded but independent women. Because we don't believe in teams. So Kwai tells the table, you know, Whitney said something that really stood out to me. She told me, we are hoping you are coming into this group to get Meredith out. Headphones. Does anyone want headphones? Headphones. Headphones. Headphones. No, you're good. Okay, I'll be back with the cocktails. I'll be back with the cocktails.

19:31Ronnie Karam: What Whitney did here is a lot worse than what I did That is not girl, girl shit And I'm sorry, but we haven't had peanuts for years Haven't you heard of the allergies?

19:43Ben Mandelker: You know what? I'm only snacks My colleague behind me will have your beverages Okay, so would you like the Pringles? No? Okay, alright

19:53Ronnie Karam: When I came to your home, you said we, not I We are excited that you're coming to take Meredith's spot. And if you will all turn your attention to the front where we're going to show you how to escape this plane if it's on fire.

20:13Ben Mandelker: So, Whitney, who is on the roster? Well, I know they're not talking about me because I'm not 50. So, huh, there we go. And Lisa's like, I mean, the process of elimination in this situation is not that difficult. Like, clearly, I'm not trying to take Meredith out She's like my sister, and Bronwyn's vehemently declining That she's like, not 50 And it's like, not Mother Mary And it's like, not quite, so like Brittany, Angie, and Heather Like, ding, ding, ding I think we have a group of 50-year-old women Like, guilty as charged

20:41Ronnie Karam: First of all, let's hold a mirror up to you You came into my home And said Meredith had awful things to say about me And that she was talking behind my back you said you were loyal to me okay so let me get this straight first off we don't ever find out what kwai said about meredith she no one has said it and she won't even say it the producer's like well kwai what did you say she's like i don't want to talk about it i don't want to discuss it here so that's weird but it sounded like to me that kwai was just saying okay yeah whitney what you're saying about meredith like i don't know her i mean i haven't seen her for seven years but that's Doesn't sound like the Meredith I know, but don't worry about me.

21:26Ronnie Karam: I can take up for myself. But then on the other hand, it just sounds like Whitney was saying, oh, my God, Kawhi, we're so glad you're on the cast. We're hoping you can replace Meredith, which sounds like also a totally normal thing to say. So I'm standing up for both Whitney and Meredith in this situation.

21:43Ben Mandelker: Yeah, I mean, I for sure think that Whitney was saying, like, we hope you can come take her spot on this cast. like 100 % that was said and I don't know if it was as like specifically worded like we have a team and our team like wants you to she may have said like it feels like there's two teams there's like Meredith and Lisa and then there's the rest of us you know so for sure I think that Kwai has telephoned us but I think the ultimate sentiment is there and that's what Meredith is reacting to which is like you want to push me off this TV show and I know it

22:18Ronnie Karam: well yeah and you would love to push her off you guys hate each other But I think it would be a totally normal thing for Whitney to say. But of course, Meredith is going to take it and be like, you are organizing a team of a 50-year-old woman to come and get me. Which just, she makes it sound so terrifying.

22:38Ben Mandelker: Yeah. So then Kawhi is like, Kawhi's basically like, no, you bailed on me when I came in this group. And Whitney's like, no, I did not. I have not done anything against you except make her look like garbage in front of all the other women. She's like, yes, you have. You recorded me. You recorded me. And I also, I just would like to say, I'm so sorry. It does appear that our Wi-Fi is down in this restaurant. We are rebooting it. It should be back in 15 minutes. We so appreciate your patience during this time, everyone. Thank you.

23:12Ronnie Karam: And Angie's like, wait, hold on, because she just said recorded. And Bram was like, wait, wait, what? Well, then if there's a recording, can we just play the recording and find out who's lying? Am I right? And Kwai's like, I've already owned my shit. You have not been recorded. I did not record you. Well, Angie brought it up twice. What the hell, Angie? I didn't say I recorded her ever. Well, she didn't say that she recorded you. Yeah, you said it at the table. I remember. And we see a flashback at the Chinese dinner when Angie was telling Kwai, well there are cameras in the house so you better tell the truth so you know what i think i think

23:50Ben Mandelker: that that was angie just doing like that police officer thing where it's like well you're the other person we arrested already gave us all the details so you might as well tell us too and it's like a complete lie it's like a trap i think that was angie's they're all taking one little thing

24:04Ronnie Karam: and twisting it to be these huge things and it's hilarious because every single one of them is doing it they're like one upping each other with nothing and angie's like well i did it i said it seems like you were worried about what you said because if someone recorded me there's cameras in ubers there's cameras in restaurants there's cameras in greece everywhere you go last time i got a pap smear there was a tape recorder in there you are being recorded everywhere you go wait are you fucking kidding me angie so there's a reaction she's like oh my pants smear? They recorded your pants? So quiet.

24:41Ben Mandelker: I was like, you know what? To be honest, her comment really hit hard. But I never said that. That's her being fucking messy. I never said that. Look, I know I messed up when I told her the bathroom story, the toothbrush story. And yeah, I probably said that I want Meredith gone, but I didn't say we. I said I. And I still stand in that. We all do. I mean, I all do. I mean, I when I go to the bathroom, I go I. So, um.

25:13Ronnie Karam: Suspect.

25:15Ben Mandelker: So Mary's like, guys, this is my first time in public since my situation, and I did choose to spend it with you guys, and I wanted you guys to be yourself, and I didn't want you to tiptoe around me. I didn't want you to say, oh, we don't say this because of Mary. No, I am completely disappointed. The way this turned out after being at my house, after what I suffered, this makes me question everyone. I expected more from you now mary it was wonderful and beautiful that everyone came together in your time of need at your house but for you to expect this lunch to go any way different than it than this one did because they all go this way that's a little bit on you well and you you also can't

25:57Ronnie Karam: use you know you can't use the stuff that you're going through against everyone and be like well Well, this happened to me. She's like, I don't want you guys to tiptoe around me. I just wanted you to do exactly what I said at this dinner. And if not, I'm disappointed, which I feel like is very merry. And Lisa's like, that's fair. That's fair. And she says, well, I'm disappointed at you, Lisa, because if you hurt someone, it's just human kindness just to say if I hurt you, I'm sorry, unless you're talking to Brittany, who's an idiot. Now, we don't move in life to hurt people because it comes back.

26:29Ronnie Karam: It comes back to us, Lisa. She's like, okay, I agree with you on that.

26:33Ben Mandelker: I agree with you. Get your stuff together. Clean it up. You can't break trust with people and then hurt them. They confide in you, and then you have an argument with them when you were in the wrong. But whatever you're going through, get on your knees and ask God to help you. Let's do better because we can, okay? And thank you for coming, and have a good night. And remember, all bouquets must stay at the table. All bouquets stay at the table.

26:55Ronnie Karam: And that last one was to Whitney. She's like, okay, Mary. Well, I don't know what you're doing, but you've got to get out of here. And they all laugh. So then we go to Meredith's, and Chloe and, geez, vampire Brooke Stott are visiting. He's got some bleached hair over there. He's like, hello, mother.

27:15Ben Mandelker: Look at me speaking up, mother. Hello, what's going on, children? Just wondering what the square root of 64 was. I love that they were wondering as if it required more than half a second of thought do you ever wonder what the square root of 64 is there's so many possibilities

27:39Ronnie Karam: it's 8 ok then what's the square root of 96 oh I don't know I'll look it up there's a thing called chat GBT

27:51Ben Mandelker: like it's GPT you're right wait a chat gbt is chat g broxy t oh toddler chat

28:03Ronnie Karam: so bromwin's walking her three dogs who we haven't seen in a long time i'm glad she still has them i thought she was like um you have embarrassed me um after leaving poop all over my mansion in the first episode that i was on so i'm getting rid of you but they're still there so uh and she they're outside so look at that uh then we go to whitney's house and quai comes over And Whitney's like How are you doing? I just wanted to show you That there's no cameras in here Except for the one at the front door And I don't think it can hear us

28:34Ben Mandelker: Okay She's like well okay Well it's just been a lot Since the luncheon She's like well I just feel like How you came into the group And how everything is gone Was completely opposite Of how I ever expected it to go she's saying it in this passive way as if there were these external forces that like really messed things up for Kwai. I'm like you were the external force you were the one who went and told all the women the stupid little things that Kwai was saying and you also exaggerated and misquoted her and now they all hate her and then she was humiliated with whatever the stupid toothbrush thing that Angie did like it was you Whitney it wasn't like oh how it all happened it was how you treated your friend

29:19Ronnie Karam: And yeah, and Kawhi's like, well, I think you can understand that all the drama in the group has stemmed from you. And we've got to figure this shit out, Whitney. She's like, but I want you to be on my side of the street. How am I supposed to push you into traffic if you're on the other side of the street?

29:39Ben Mandelker: She's like, I am on your side, but you have to understand there's a lot of hot chocolate on your side. There's a lot of fudge on your side, a lot of Hershey's chocolate syrup on your side, and a lot of tarps. It's hard to walk. And I'm seeing and I'm hearing what you're saying, but what I'm saying is I'm here in the middle, but if Meredith brings up the grudge against you, I'm going to say, do you want to move on or not? And I'll say it just like that. And then I'll say, you have to put your tray table up because we are preparing for landing.

30:10Ronnie Karam: Well, on one hand, I want to be nice to Kwai because Sherry passed away and Sherry liked Kwai. On the other hand, I don't want to be nice to Kwai because maybe Sherry would say fuck Kwai. But on the other hand, how come I have so many hands?

30:31Ben Mandelker: She's like, you and I have history. There's enough to fight for. All I'm asking of you is Please don't assume the worst in me She's like yeah I agree And you know I know you feel bad And you know I feel bad So let's move forward Because I want to be friends with you And I want to be friends with Meredith And I want to be friends with Lisa And I want to be friends with that person who works at CVS They have nice hair Also I want to be friends with the person I met at Starbucks the other day They were oh god they were so kind I really want to be friends with so many people

33:53So

33:53Ben Mandelker: She goes You know what I love? Barata I love barata Is it classified? Barata? I love the barata I love barata The barata's so good Does anyone know what the square root of 112 is? I'm asking for at least For Meredith's kids

34:13Ronnie Karam: Wow Mary Can we talk for a minute about Robert Sr.'s flowers? She's like yeah Brittany you guys Did you know that Brittany stole my flowers? I mean, she took a whole bunk of my flowers. Like, she stole them right off the table.

34:27Ben Mandelker: Mary's like, there's something wrong in the head with Miss Brittany. Not only did she get her bouquet that Robert Sr. gave her, she took a whole arrangement off the table. The decoration, she took the ones back that she brought me as a gift. She took those too. I want to smack her, but I didn't. But that was smackable.

34:44Ronnie Karam: But shit was so funny. So then Mary pulls out her phone. She goes, hold on, I'm going to show you. Wait, how did you get a photo of it? She sent me. And she goes, first of all, wait a minute. She said I stole your flowers. She admitted it. So she shows her a picture. She shows them a picture of Brittany with an older woman in a hospital bed. And her face is blurred out holding these flowers. And Lisa's like, oh, my God, she's so weird. Like, who even is that?

35:10Ben Mandelker: Who is that older lady? I know. And then the text says, first of all, it was nice seeing you. Second of all, I go to nursing homes, Mary. and it was like Brittany bringing the flowers to some elderly person in a bed and she's like I have a theory and I am dead serious. I feel like she goes to rest homes or to visit elderly to have like one foot in the grave and one on the banana peel and call back and tries to get into their wills.

35:40Ronnie Karam: I laughed so hard at this whole segment. That is the, but what what an allegation. This shit is golden. So Lisa's like, yeah, she needs the cash. You know, it's not beneath Breton A to go to God's waiting room and find the one that's ready to go first and then make sure she gets a little piece of whatever's left over.

35:59Ben Mandelker: So Mary's like, so how's it going, Angie? How's life? How's Sean? And Angie's like, uh, uh, I don't want to take the spotlight. I mean, that's an interesting question. Uh-huh.

36:11Ronnie Karam: Can we, God, can we just get to what you and Sean are doing today? Today? Can we get to it today? How are you and Sean, please?

36:20Ben Mandelker: Oh, good. We are good. I mean, Electra keeps us busy. Work keeps us busy. I mean, life is lifing. Everything is fine. Nothing is wrong. We are Greek. Mary's like, hmm, something's off. Something is not right here. So then they just pivot over to Heather and Mary asks about the boyfriend. And Heather's like, oh, you mean Trippipa? I showed you his picture and I'm nervous for you guys to meet him. Oh, man. I'm bringing a guy around. Don't went him off all at once at the first party, girls.

36:51Ronnie Karam: I keep telling him, well, they're really nice to men. And he's like, I'm really nice to you, but shut the fuck up. Ha ha ha. Oh my god, the morale there. I'm gonna be hosting a party. It's gonna be the first time that Trip meets all the ladies. And we've ironed out the early dating wrinkles. We're in love. Feels like the right time. Feels so good to have someone on my side. So, Angie's asking who's coming to this party and everybody and spouses. And Angie says, Mary's going to be her plus one. And Bronwyn's going to bring her boyfriend.

37:29Ben Mandelker: And then Angie is like, what about Brittany? She's like, I invited Brittany too. Yeah. So Mary says, well, I do not want to be bothered with Brittany. And Heather says, but speaking of Bronwyn and Brittany, Brittany's absolutely on the hunt to expose Bronwyn. You know how she's in real estate While Brittany pulls up the deed for her home You guys, America I felt really bad for what happened With the hypocrisy and bullshit talent show But there's mad gossip To be discussed The point is, I'm moving on to a new storyline And I see I can do a kill shot on Bronwyn So here we go Guys, Brittany

38:07Ronnie Karam: Said the house is owned by like a trust And like Bronwyn came to Brittany's Party for Olivia and Brittany was investigating her. And the truth is, I don't want to get into her divorce, but I mean, you can't do a press release with a hot new boyfriend and still get a good divorce settlement, you know?

38:24Ben Mandelker: So you are getting into her divorce. You know, there's a world where I believe Bronwyn, you know? So it's on the record. I can always say, I believe you, Bronwyn. She's so convincing, but I'm skeptical of the grandioseness of it all.

38:40Ronnie Karam: You know, Bronwyn, when I first met her i thought she was so funny and so charming and witty and i was i was obsessed with her and like i literally believed everything but it's all a rose like her boyfriend brandon he seems like so nice but it seems like cunning and a pr move like it felt stumpy like he had a qr code on his forehead

39:00Ben Mandelker: you know did anyone scan that it's so stunta wait you think that that boyfriend's a stunt like that time that Dionysus was dating Persephone all for publicity on Mount Olympus. And she's like, yeah, it seemed like very PR-ish. Well, I mean, if I paid for it, the press would have been flooded with me and Trip because we've been traveling and dating since November.

39:26Ronnie Karam: Okay, so now we see. Heather's like, oh, this has to be PR because PR, you know, we don't get PR for stuff like this unless we're paying for it. like otherwise they would be following me and trip everywhere but like it's one thing if you're just like a lady who starts to date like an average guy who you met off of angie's list

39:47Ben Mandelker: that's not gonna like get like oodles of tmz coverage but if you're going through a divorce and then right away you're dating a hot model and you basically went from like like a lawn garden gnome to like Calvin Klein model TMZ's gonna pet, that's a story I'm sorry, well she's also

40:08Ronnie Karam: bringing him to huge events, right she's doing all these fashion events and she's there with Christian Siriano and this guy's one of Christian Siriano's model friends and she's, you know, doing the golden she's doing huge events where press is all around anyway, so of course if she's got some hot younger boyfriend or whatever I don't know, who knows about this but i think they're such assholes for doing this and it's so funny and we knew heather was going to do something like this yeah pretending to be on bronwyn's side and then immediately betraying her the rumors online are that this guy got paid 15 grand to go to that party in san francisco i don't know if that's true i haven't seen anything to back that up but that's what the the streets are saying right now i think it's yeah i mean it is brought does bronwyn you know

40:54Ben Mandelker: pushing him in front of cameras because she knows it'll give her press and that's just like she's getting off on it maybe is she just bringing him around because she's like I got a hot ass boyfriend and I'm going to show him off maybe kind of okay with either one I don't think it's harming anyone so

41:11Ronnie Karam: I think in a world of like Real Housewives and reality stars in general that's kind of normal it's like oh I'm getting divorced and now you know of course I'm not going to announce it till I'm on the show but guys I've also got a hot young boyfriend you know it's kind of

41:26Ben Mandelker: so maybe what their issue is is actually more like okay it's fine you've got this hot young thing but we know it's just like a fuck buddy use a rebound like best way to get over someone to get under someone yada yada yada but like don't also use them as a shield like we're in like a really real relationship and therefore you can't talk shit about me because maybe that's what the issue is here is that like she's like if you come after her divorce or if you come after like how she's paying for things it's like i'm in a real relationship you're not allowed to say these things like how dare you say this i finally find happiness and this is what you're gonna say you're gonna try to take me down and they're probably already planting the seeds like this isn't real happiness this is just a stunt that you're doing

42:08Ronnie Karam: for attention yeah i think they're literally saying this is a man whore you're paying somebody to be on tv to get more attention than us and calling pr about it and we all know that you're faking it.

42:21Ben Mandelker: So Lisa goes, you know what? Okay, you know what's real? Because everything I've experienced with her is not real. The realest thing I can tell you is that she's not real. And Angie's like, but why does Bronwyn keep doing this? Why does she keep winding up in a story that doesn't add up? I think that's been her whole entire life.

42:41Ronnie Karam: Yeah, I've seen this chick before. You know, Bronwyn represents her life. And she literally lies about everything. and I'm all about like fake it till you make it but like she takes it a little bit too far she's not who she purports to be hold on one second I do accept this Oscar on behalf of my agent and God as well Joseph Smith thank you for everything you've done for me

43:08Ben Mandelker: fake it till you make it but don't fake it till you make out so Lisa says when it looks like a duck and it acts like a duck and then you're just like waiting for the whole cast to be like and it's quacking thank you someone thank you so they all just like laugh it's actually kind of funny because it's kind of like a big kiki moment I mean half this cast is always mad at Lisa Barlow so it's sort of funny that Lisa was even there in this like gossip sesh but they were just there and they're basically like okay I can't believe that we were accused of making a team against Meredith okay new team we're going against Bronwyn

43:51Ronnie Karam: yeah um i don't know if one's lying about the boyfriend or if she paid the boyfriend or whatever

43:57Ben Mandelker: i don't i also don't care i really love that she has a hot boyfriend i'm always in support of like someone who just got out of like a shitty marriage where you where you don't have a voice and where the guy is stealing a cherry off of your sundae and you get a hot ass like male model boyfriend I will never not be in support of that unless the male model is like, you know, introduces terrible things like abuse or drugs. But like on this level, I'm in support of it.

44:27Ronnie Karam: Yeah. So but this episode was hilarious. I mean, we got them coming for Bronwyn and now we've got this storyline that Brittany is possibly going to old folks home to trick them into putting her putting her in their will and waiting for them to die. I mean, that is gold, and I can't wait for Brittany to have a fit about this. It is really remarkable.

44:49Ben Mandelker: It's great.

44:51Ronnie Karam: All right, everybody. Well, thank you so much for being here.
