Hala Mama is right because we got a flashback when Carol was on screen this week of Heather Hala Thompson, a little cameo with her and Kristen Takeman, as they were going through Carol's apartment after it had been renovated and it was so weird seeing them on this new iteration of Rony. A flashback to old Rony during the new Rony, it threw me for a loop, and I liked it. I liked it. And I'm liking the
season of The Real House's New York you guys. So obviously we're only two episodes in. We're going to have to see how it goes episode four, five, six, seven, eight. See if they're able to hold up, but the thing that I'm loving is these new women, the Daisy and the Haley and the Erica. I mean, not only did one of them break their nose by getting poked by a double D-tit, but then the other one is flirting with the tutor on text messages for their kid. I mean, that is craziness. When I heard that she was flirting with the tutor over text and the tutor, 26-year-old young man was saying, oh, I'm in love with you or whatever he was saying in text message, which you obviously shouldn't it. Durinda Medley taught us that. Say it, forget it, write it, regret it. He's going to regret that. Why is he writing in text message? And then not only that, she was heart-knit you guys. She was heart-knit. Heart and the tutor, the 26-year-old tutor was saying that he had feelings for the, and she was heart-knit you guys. Now that is good, how swifery. In my real life, if I had someone in my life like that, I'd say, hey, absolutely not. You should not be texting the young man tutor. That is unacceptable. But on a TV
show, on a reality TV show drama, I'm loving it. And I'm like, give her a raise, give her a contract for next season. She's got the popcorn ceilings now and you give her a fine fuck. Or, nearly, I'd say, why are we hiring a housewife that's got popcorn ceilings? Because we need wealth and opulence. But she's Martha Swartz makeup artist and flirting with the tutor. I'm all in. Putting all the chips on red or what, I don't know what the saying is, I'm trying to go for it. But I'm ready to give her like an eight-year contract. And I don't know much about her. We've only been with her for two weeks now. So, I heard Daisy Haley, Erica, they're really doing it for me. I'm enjoying having Heather back. Now, the things that aren't working for me is basically everything from the reboot in the first place. The side, just a little, an errand of it all. Because I find that to be so fake. I'm sorry to laugh, but I don't actually buy any of the jessil and errand feud because they sat this week and they went to lunch or brunch or it was brunch because Carol said she hated it. She's like, why isn't it breakfast or lunch? Why are we going to brunch?
Anyway, they went there in the weird kind of dynamic between errand and jessil. It just made me feel like, oh, that hole throwing out of the party thing feels like it was all set up to them. And maybe that's not true, but that's how it feels as the audience members. I was like, oh, that's a bag of bullshit. I don't even think that jessil really cared about the errand of it all. They're just trying to start some drama. And I think they went into the season and being like, hey, we got to hold on to our jobs because otherwise we're going to get fired. Everybody else from our cast was fired. We got to hold on for one more day in the words of Wilson Phillips. And we got to try to bring something this upcoming season. And so I think they got in kohuts before the season. And even if they didn't get in kohuts, I think they subconsciously got in kohuts. Because I feel they knew their jobs were on the line. I think that's why Aaron went into that ultimate girl's trip filming, ready to talk shit to Chanel Ion or whoever she was talking to in that car on the way to Durin does house. Bluestone Manor. I think she was ready to talk some shit just to like save the job. But I don't know if there's any like actual real feeling behind it. Does that make sense? So they might not have actually been in kohuts, but I think subconsciously
they were in kohuts to try to save their jobs. I don't find that they even feel any of its, any real feelings towards each other in regards to this feud. And so they're what's not working to me. And then the reason size not working to me is because we're finding out the season that the last two seasons she was lying on us. And so even though she's coming in coming in clean or coming in to tell the truth this season on real houses in New York, it just feels an authentic. Because it's like, oh, you're trying to save your job too. Like you're just trying to backtrack now. And so even though you're being honest and open, I'm thinking in my head as an audience member because we just had two seasons of you trying to lie to us about the relationship with your husband. That now even though you're seemingly telling the truth about the husband, I'm thinking, well, what else do you lie in about? What else do you lie in about? Because I need to know. I need to know legally. I need to know. Did you guys watch the Emmys? They had a Mishka Hargote was the host. You know how I love her, first of all, obviously. Of course, who doesn't? But I do think they always
need a comedian to host these award shows. And I don't understand how we're in the year of 2026. And whoever's producing an award show doesn't realize that you need a comedian to host the award show. Like it's so simple. There's really two qualifications you need. You need someone who's a fan of whatever they're hosting. So a fan of television, which is pretty broad, but like it shouldn't be that hard to find a comedian who likes TV. And I'm talking genuine likes to be it doesn't work when you have just a comedian who is not a big fan of pop culture television. That doesn't work either. But you need someone who's a comedian and who loves whatever they're hosting about. So they need to either love TV be familiar with what's on TV, what's nominated. Or if it's Academy Awards, they need to be a big movie buff, big movie fan, big celebrity person. Those are the only two qualifications. And it baffles me. It baffles me. How they still to this day are like, well, let's drive this person. It's like, well, what the fuck are you doing? It's so clear. All you have to do. And I'm not talking. I don't like when they
Jimmy Kimmel. We love Jimmy Kimmel. But like I don't I don't feel even when he's hosting. I'm like, I don't know if he really cares about like the shows, the TV shows or the movies or whatever he's hosting about. You just need someone who cares about the topic. And I don't like when I'm watching these award shows and it feels like they hate the topic. So I don't want them like I don't want to tune into the Academy Awards and see people making fun of movies. Like that's what we'll do at home. I need the host to love movies, but also to be funny. They can they can rib on movies or they can poke fun at celebrity. Of course, we want that. But I just need to know that deep down, they have an affection for television and that they're also funny. Like it's only two qualifications need. And yet for some reason, they're like, let's just hire this person from law and order. And again, we love her. We, which incredible actress. Not only that she was, we can incredibly rich too because law in order has been on 100 years. She's also in that Capital One commercial I believe that kept airing during the broadcast. So look, we love her. We love her. Do you know she was
originally cast in the Power Rangers movie? That's right. That's right. I love her so much that I even know that fun fact about her. And then she was replaced. She was originally was played. Delcia. That's not the point. The point is we need a comedian and someone who has reverence to the thing. Otherwise, though, I did like the, I did like the Emmys. It was weird that it ran short. It was weird that it ran short. Normally, it always runs long. And by the end of the Emmys this year, it was like they had seven minutes after Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey tried to stretch it. And then it was like, we're just going to keep keep going. But you know what? It was one of my favorite parts of the whole show at the end when they just kept going and we got to see shots of the crowd filing out of the theater that they ran. I loved that because I just wanted to see them sort of who filed out together. Who was sort of taking photos? What's Nicole Kidman taking a photo with somebody like what was going on there? Speaking of Nicole Kidman, I love practical magic too. I know you guys are tuning in for a Roni. And you're hearing me talk about all this
other stuff. But I did love practical magic too. I cried at least three times. And the reviews aren't good, but I loved it. I, what's that say about me? I loved it. The great time. But a soft pretzel. Anything else I got to talk about? Oh, speaking of Hala Mama. Mama Hala Mama. Matt and I are this is sort of big news. I shouldn't have buried the lead. I don't know why I was talking about practical magic too before this, but Matt and I we will be welcoming a middle girl into our family this fall. So it's the cats out of the bag, so to speak. And I'm so happy because I've been sort of keeping this a secret for a while. She's coming soon. She's coming soon. And so we kept it close to the chest as long as possible. But now the cats out of the bag and this fall will be a family of four. Two under two. Pray for D. We're excited though. I can't wait. I can't wait. I feel excited. I excited. And, and you know, it's so interesting how it relates to what we're talking about here with Roni as I gave up the real house is Vornch County. I was
recapping it. I did 10 episodes this season. And I don't think in the history of this podcast, have I like given up midway through a season. I'm usually a completist. I'll finish it out. But the truth is I felt myself coming each week to this podcast. And as I was doing Orange County, I just felt bummed out every time I watched it and then recapped it. And otherwise, I've been so excited. We've obviously been anxious with the baby coming, but like overwhelmingly excited and happy and in sort of good spirits and stuff. And then I would come on this podcast and I was like, oh man, that was like ruining my mood to talk about the real house is Vornch County every week. So I am glad that we pivoted to Roni and now real house is Salt Lake City is coming this week. So, so I'm excited. But, uh, yeah, that was like another thing where I was like, I need to protect my piece a little bit. Like I am not having fun talking about the real house Vornch County. But you know what I'm having fun talking about the real house size of New York. Yes. Okay. Let's get back to it. We got all the news out of the way. Oh, the news. So Carol, we opened with her. This is her
first full episode last week. She did a little voice over at the beginning of the episode. And her solo shot. And I know we mentioned this last week, but the short dress in the solo shot before it goes to the scene, you know, when she's holding the apple, like what the fuck is going on there? Like what is it's very awkward shot. It feels very, it feels like she's a little off balance and also like a strange look to me like obviously not fashion used to so maybe you know, she's cool Carol. Isn't that what Bethan used to call her cool Carol? She's cool Carol. She always wants to be cool. Cool Carol. And so she shows up this week. She's like, I can't believe I'm back. And I'm like me either. She says it's been eight years. And in the eight years, she got back into writing. She's doing a sub-stack now. She renovated the apartment again, uh, the second time since 2014. Again, the kitchen was in office. And now it's back to kitchen. She makes the coffee there. We got the Heather Hala, uh, cameo and the flashback. Then this woman Erica arrives. And we met Erica last week,
briefly. And I guess Erica's not a main cast member, right? She's like a friend cast member. Am I wrong about that? She was shown up a lot this week. And I was like a little confused. Maybe I was just so focused on Haley and Daisy last week. Who by the way, I'm having trouble a little bit matching their name. I sometimes have to think about it. So if I mix it up in the recap, just know that I'm sorry. But Haley's the Martha Stewart one. And, uh, right? No. Wait, I think I'm mixing them up. See, I'm already mixing them up. Ah, I heard you know I'm going to get the messages. That's Daisy, Danny. How did you get it wrong? I'm sorry. I'm sorry, but see, I'm mixing them up. But we'll get it by the end of the year. Uh, but everyone apparently met through Martha Stewart. See, that's the other confusing thing because Erica arrives to meet Carol. And she's like, Oh, I met Carol through Martha Stewart. And I also met, uh, Carol through the other people met through Martha Stewart. And I'm like, Why is Martha Stewart the nucleus of the show? How did that happen? But she arrives to meet Carol and they go in the car in air because
that Carol's cool. And Carol apparently gets in the car Tuesday and Friday to do her work in the morning in the car. And then she has to move the car for the parking street sweeper. Now, I related to this very deeply because until very recently, I always lived in apartments where you had to park on the street here in Los Angeles. And then on a certain day of the week, you'd have to move the car. And it would be so frustrating because you'd have to move the car for 9 to 11 a.m. on like a Friday morning or whenever they streets weeped. And it was always a big ol' pain in the ass. Because some days you'd wake up, especially this happened in my 20s. I could wake up hungover or something. It's like, Oh, I got to roll out of bed and go move the car to the other side of the street for two hours. Like it's crazy. But they got to sweep those streets. And they don't waste a second, by the way, those parking meter people. They don't waste a second to give you a ticket. The minute the cars on the wrong side of the street, they were just like slapping on a ticket, slapping on a ticket and as they get out of here. But anyway, Erica does say she met all these
people through Martha. Now I think it's sort of like pretend nose. I think it's like we sort of pretend no each other. But Carol's publisher calls what remains is back on the best seller list. And in my experience, they do the publisher does someone at the publishing company will let you know like, Hey, we're going to give you a call about like the best seller list stuff. And they do that because even if you're not Carol on a reality TV show, if you do make the list, they'll kind of give you a heads up so that you could film it if you want because it is such a big moment, especially if you make like one of the big lists. So at least that was my experience. It was like when they'll they'll give you a heads up so that they can call you. So that felt like a little less stagy to me than it would normally on camera to see Carol just getting a call being like your books back on the best seller list. Because otherwise the publishers don't really call you. Anyway, Carol says the love story stuff is bittersweet because this FX show love story,
which I watched and I loved. I loved it. It is not for Carol. She's not happy about it because all these people that she loved bearish and she's going to watch it dramatized by Ryan Murphy. And I don't even know how historically accurate it was. Obviously, I just had a crush on the main man. I had such a crush on that man. What's his name? I still follow him Paul Kelly or Paul Anthony Kelly. Anyway, Carol says she found out about it because she went on a date with a guy who auditioned to play Anthony. Actually, she said she went out with two guys who auditioned to play Anthony. And I think this was a lie. Sorry, I do. You know, I always defended Carol. I was always teen Carol when it came to her in Bethany. You guys know that. You go back to the archives and you know that. And yet something something about Carol in present day rings not for me. I said it. I'm sorry, I said it. Something about Carol in present day. I don't know what it is. I'm having a hard time connecting to her.
And obviously, I'm excited to hear about her people confront her about the Epstein stuff because that's what we're all waiting on. Pins and needles for. Even the JFK Jr. stuff, it's like we want people to confront her about that. But then I don't like how even at the end of the episode they were. Jessel was like really going hard at her about it. And she was just trying to deny. And she didn't want to talk about it. And it's like, well, if you're going to be on this show back on the show, you need to talk about it. And so I need to hear about all these things that we're wondering about. And I think that's what's making me not click with Carol. Maybe when she does address everything, then I'll be like, okay, I can have a better positive opinion about you. But right now I do not have a very positive opinion about Carol. I don't. I'm sorry to say it. I'm happy she's back. But I have some things. Not right. Something's not right to me. Now she talks about being a New York driver, which would be my hell. Because I do. I've always had a truck, which sounds crazy. But I've always had a truck. And so like, I'm used to a higher up car. And I don't think I could drive around New York sitting in a big-ass truck. I just didn't think I could do it. She made a joke about having only five good
summers left. And Erica laughed politely. But I don't think Erica knew what she was talking about. Because obviously Carol was referencing one of her moments from the original run on Rony. And I don't even know if Erica watched it. But she politely laughed. She said, then we got to Aaron and Abe. Two other people I do not care for on this show. But again, we're loving the show. But I do not care for them. And they got water in their Sagan Harbor home. I guess a pipe burst in the bedroom ceiling and then flooded. And she goes to this house in Sagan Harbor. She's got jeans on because they're going to flooded home. So their outfits were a little bit shocking to me. And I don't want to throw around that word lightly. But I was flabbergasted flamuckst and shocked because Aaron was wearing jeans with like a button down. But then she had a white t-shirt over the button down. But it was a t-shirt so that it had an a long seat button down. And then she had like a stack of 100 gold necklaces, like literally a
hundred. And I think we're going to look back on this necklace stacking the way we look back on the statement necklaces of Contas Lueins days of yesterday or. And we're going to say what was going on there. Why did we stack so many? Why were there so many of them? And especially when she's going into this flooded home, like, what do you? I feel like you need to go in like old pajama bottoms. And a t-shirt with a Tasmanian devil on it like that you've had since 98. Like that's what you need to go into a flooded home with. And I don't think I need jewelry. Maybe an Apple watch. Like that. Maybe your Apple watch. That'd be the only thing I'd say. Because an Apple watch isn't it isn't it waterproof? I don't know. I think Apple I sort of hate my I have an Apple watch and I hate it. And I like I only put it on when I go to work out and I hate it. Like every time I put it on I'm like, I hate you. And then sometimes it will not be charged. And I'm like, why are I even bothered? Like I hate this piece of equipment. And yet I wear it. I like purposefully put it on.
I hate it. That's what I'd wear if my house flooded though. I'd be like, I'm putting on that Apple watch. And I'm going to hope that I leave it there because I hate it. It literally, what is that about? Why can't I just get rid of it or stop wearing it? I hate it. Like with every ounce of me, I hate my Apple watch. And yet when I'm going to work out, I'd put that sucker on. And I don't I can't leave the house without it. And then even when it's not charged, even though I put it on the charger overnight, it makes me hate it even more. And yet I'll still put it back on. Like it's sick. It's like a sick addiction. Do they still have that show my strange addiction? I need to go on it for that Apple watch because I hate it. And yet I still keep doing it. We've been speaking of Countess LeWand. Did you guys watch The Real House's Ultimate Girls Trip? Countess LeWand is so funny on there. She was definitely like, I don't want to say on something. I don't want to say that on a microphone. But she was very it was a lot to watch on The Real House's Ultimate Girls trip. There was one point when they sat down and she's like definitely like feeling herself. She's flying high. And she calls out to some children that are in your
buy. And like the whole table is like, Louie and no, no, no, no, Louie and it's like they're scolding an animal. Like they're just, no, like do not go there, Louie and no, no. And it made me laugh so hard. And then after this like, I don't know, it was like lunch or something. They get in a car. Lisa Barlow's crying. Like she's so upset. Teresa's in her own little world. Like, you know, Teresa, whatever's going on in that head of hers is like its own plot line. Like she's not paying attention to Louie and Orly's to Barlow. And then Louie is in the car. So it's the three of them in the car. And Louie and she's like referencing her lyrics. She's talking about things she learned. But I think she sits in that ayahuasca at one point and said, she's crazy. She's crazy. If you haven't watched it, it's like some of the funniest TV, some of these funniest TV ever, it just makes me laugh. And I don't know what was going on if it was just alcohol or what, but something was happening
there. And I was laughing very hard, but I hope all is well. Let's take a break here. And I want to think a cast. And we'll be right back. We got so much more to discuss it. So have two more pages and notes, baby. So tight. You know, one thing nobody tells you about acne is that it doesn't magically disappear once you're out of high school. Every now and then I still get a break out, usually you're up before you have to be on camera or do a live show or something. It's like my skin knows exactly when it's least convenient. I need to take a picture. That's why I've been using Panoxyl. They're known as the acne authority. And they've been dermatologist recommended brand for over 50 years. What I like is that they have products for different skin types and different stages of your skin care routines, whether you're looking for something maximum strength like their acne filming wash with 10% benzoyl peroxide or a gentler option, they've got you covered. And the ingredients are the real deal. Panoxyl uses scientifically proven acne fighting ingredients without needing a prescription. In fact, they're acne filming wash, which I've been actually using for years and years in the shower is powered by 10% benzoyl peroxide and kills 99% of acne causing
bacteria in just 15 seconds. I've worked at the panoxyl into my routine because I want products that are simple, effective and help me feel more confident. My skin is really one less thing to worry about when life is already busy enough. So go to panoxyl.com to find out more information, which products are right for you and where you can buy in store or visit the Panoxyl store on Amazon. Panoxyl. That's P-A-N-O-X-Y-L. Panoxyl, the acne authority. Okay, we need to talk about something that's not super glamorous, but unfortunately it's very real. Talk about bloating. Now there's nothing worse than putting on a cute outfit feeling absolutely iconic, going out to dinner and then suddenly regretting every waistband decision you've ever made. And that, my friends, is where seed comes in. Seeds DS-01 is a 24-strain probiotic and prebiotic that transforms your gut. Just two capsules a day, support digestive health, including regularity, bloating and gas, things that can make a huge difference in your quality of life. It's also formulated with strains shown to sport better bowel
movements in just two weeks. Now you know what I always say? Hotties take their probiotics and that's why I love my seed because I've been taking seed for a while now. And let's just say my morning routine has gotten regular. And I like that about it because there's nothing worse than when you're not regular and you're feeling throughout the day so bloated, uncomfortable. And so seed really helps with that. I love it. And you can also take it with you when you travel. I think that's really important to stay regular when you're going somewhere and changing time zones and seed helps with that. I love.

One of the things nobody really prepares you for about owning a home is how quickly something can go wrong. Everything is fine one day and then suddenly
there's plumbing issue, the water heater steps working or something electrical decides today is the day. And now you're suddenly trying to find someone to fix it while also wondering what it's even going to cost. And that's where home serve comes in. I love home serve. They offer different plans covering various home systems. So you can choose one that works for your needs and budget.

You know, in one little project around the house somehow snowballs into 10 big projects around the house that keeps happening to me, which is why I'm so grateful for Wayfarer because I'm suddenly noticing every corner of the house and with fall around the corner, I want everything to feel a little bit cozier.

So, Aaron's at the Saga Harbor home with Abe. They got the mold, the bedroom's ruined, the height wall is ruined. So you guys have that, we had that as a kid with the where my parents would mark our height on the wall. And we had it on this. It was in our house that I grew up in and they had it in our basement in one of like the loose pieces of wood in the basement. And they never took it off. Like it was sort of a loose piece of wood anyway, but when we moved, they never took it with them. And years later, years later the house that
went up for sale in Ohio. And I wasn't living in town at the time, but my family went to go look at the house because it was the house we were raised in. And they went and it was still in the basement. And my brother sent me like a picture of it, but it was still there. And I was like, Brian, like what you should have taken it with you. Like you should have asked them, hey, can you take that? But all of our heights were still marked on there from our childhood youth. And I don't know why he didn't take it, but so I wonder that this was years ago too. So I always say if the house goes up for sale again, I need to go travel back there and look myself and also steal that piece from the basement if it is still there. Because that's history. That's history. And now that we're going to have two, I can't believe I'm going to say two under two like Danny from the valley. But when we have two under two, which I can't wait for really, but we need to get a height wall. We don't have a height wall yet, but we need to do it or somewhere we can mark it and then keep it with me forever. But you know, the truth is after seeing Aaron and Abe, like they're going through their stuff and look, it really did look bad, but I got mad later in the episode when Aaron
complained or compared it to someone's house in Hurricane Katrina. And I was like, how about you, shut the fuck up. Like I don't think it's the same. I don't think it's the same kind of thing. Like the people who lost their homes in Hurricane Katrina lost their main home. Like you're talking about your second home in SAG Harbor. And it wasn't a natural disaster. Like it was a pipe burst. And so that kind of pissed me off that PMOed. But aside from that, I think one of the learning lessons from the scene was like, yeah, you can't hold on to stuff too much. You kind of got to just I don't know. It's a good reminder to not attach yourself to too much stuff. And I know I say that sitting in my office where I'm staring at a Rosie O'Dall, a Rosie O'Donnell, plusched doll that I have since my youth. And obviously right behind me, you could see beanie babies and McDonald's beanie babies regular sized beanie babies, a Rosie O'Donnell Barbie, a JC doll from NSYNC. I mean, I have a lot of junk. So I, you know what the truth is, we all need to stop attaching ourselves to junk. But then we
got to Erica who was in WWE. And she's doing a workout class at the Equinox called Knockout. Now there's a lot of red flags for Erin right off the bat because I told you last week she's sitting there running her dress, but then she's with the billionaire. And then also this week, I'm like, why is she teaching a class at Equinox if she's with the billionaire? Like something doesn't add up to me. Now I know she said she started this knockout class. So she's gorgeous, but I just, I'm like thinking maybe she just did the class for the show and like she created this class. And so she's like, let me just so people get to know me. But there's something a little bit red flaggy to me. And look, devil's advocate, I understand that somebody might just want to, they want to work. Like just because you're married to billionaire, it doesn't mean you don't want to have your own things going on. Like I totally understand that. But it's just a little, like I'm, I'm like a little, it's a little red flag. You know, it's something where my ears are percon up and I'm saying, what's going on here? What's happening? What is happening? Because something's fishy. And maybe we'll get to that fishiness eventually down the line. Maybe it'll
be a couple of season before we get to that fishiness. But I just want to be on camera. I want to be on record saying that there's something fishy. Even though I do think Erica is like, stunning. Is she not stunning? Somebody said something about her, her face card. And I was like, her face, face card is lethal. Like she's just so stunning. And her body's gorgeous too. But like her face is so stunning, gorgeous. Daisy says Erica so cute with her little job. And Erica's like, I could teach this class hungover. So then it's Daisy, Haley and Erica, they're all doing this class together. And after class, they talk about side. Now Daisy says her and size sons are besties. So again, Daisy's the one with Martha Stewart, Haley's the one who dated John Goslin. Did I mix them up earlier? Probably I'm sorry. But they say Aaron's a shit talker. They also talk about Aaron. And they're a piss Haley's mad because Aaron had told people about the double D thing. And Haley says, I think Aaron lives a plane in vanilla life, but I'm interesting. She says,
she's got a lavender marriage and it's foreign to Aaron. And I do think Haley just lives life I love. And I love Haley. By the way, Haley, who was dating John Goslin, there were these photos that circulated online after the Rooney premiere, where she was spotted like with John Goslin. And so of course, as a Goslin historian, I guess I'll call myself that. I was so confused about this. And then this week, there was a post from I think it was John Goslin's, I don't know, new wife or girlfriend. I saw this on social media where three of them were together. It was John Goslin, the new one and and Haley. It was like the three of them together. And I thought, whoa, that's a modern family. Like, do we need to get Goslin on the show? Like a neat film scene because they're all friends now. But I love Haley. I love Haley. And Haley said Aaron just boars her and she's like, I just black out when Aaron talks. And Haley is such a star. You
have no idea. She calls Aaron strawberry jam. She's like, it's always on the table, but you'd rather, you could take it or leave it. She said she's rather, she'd rather read a book. She'd rather read Carol's book than talk to Aaron. Now, I don't like that she was throwing shade at books. I do not hear for the fact that she was throwing books under the bus in that same sentence. Now, it's one thing if you want to throw Carol's specific book under the bus. But I do think that we have a literacy, literacy problem here in the US. And I've been reading so many reports about people are not reading these days. Children are not reading kids in school can't read because they don't read. And I think books are so important for empathy and for a million things. Like I think people put too much emphasis on books for, for like things like grammar and spelling and learning that kind of stuff. And I think books are more important for empathy. And so people need to read a book. You just got, you've got to find one. Just one. You don't need to read a lot of books. I'm not saying you got to sit every second. I understand we're all tired. We want to sit down and watch our
stupid shows. But they do think it's important to read like a book like every once in a while. Like just pick one, find one. There's going to be one you like. And like the truth with books is when you find one you like, it's going to snowball you. So you're going to be like, oh, fuck like I like that one. I want another one by that author or I want another one like that. And it doesn't, I'm not saying you have to read something super dense. Like just read something silly. Read a good silly book or a good celebrity memoir of someone you like. And don't feel so, I think it's important to not feel so attached to like if you're reading a celebrity memoir for instance, I always say this. But a lot of times I'll skip ahead in a celebrity memoir because I don't always care so much about like someone being like, and then when I was in kindergarten, I started in the play and that made me want to be an actor. It's like I don't always care so much about that stuff. So sometimes I'll skip ahead and I'm okay with that. Or if you want to do an audiobook, read the list into the audiobook, it's still going to teach you about that empathy because you're going to put yourself in someone else's shoes. Oh my god, shoes. Okay, so then, uh, shy, we got
to sigh talking about her separation. She says me and my next husband will have a prenup. Then we see Daisy at home with the popcorn ceilings, her husband Eugene and the kid. The Nanny's there as well and she wants wine open and he doesn't. And they're struggling to do it all. She says, Eugene, the husband, he is, he's a hairstylist, right? Yeah, a hairstylist and his schedule is consistently, he's real busy and hers is kind of all over the place because she's Martha's story to make a artist. And so she says she can't really book other clients. She's got to wait for Martha to call her and be like, Hey, I need you. Get your ass over here. And he meanwhile has, I guess, something more consistent. But when she is gone, so she says sometimes Martha will call her and be like, Hey, we got to go to Europe. We got to go to Istanbul. We got to go to San Diego. We got to go wherever she says Martha will call her. And so she put cameras all over this popcorn ceiling department to watch the kid and the husband while she's gone. Was there a weird filter on
the scene? What was that about? Did anyone notice that weird filter? It was like a weird, kind of like a brownish filter. And I'm like, what's happening with the filter? I mentioned practical magic too. And there was a little filter work happening. And I think I'm noticing with a lot of TV and film now. And some people online call it Netflix lighting, but I actually think there's some sort of like weird face tuning happening with people. And I'm not saying I don't support it. I'm just saying it's like throwing me off a little bit because sometimes when I'm watching things now, everybody is so smoothed. And obviously a lot of actors get Botox or filler or facelifts or whatever. I get that. But there's also on top of that some sort of like smoothing thing filter going on on the lens on stuff. And that's like throwing me off. It makes me feel like a little uncanny valley. And so I wish they would stop that. But that wasn't the same thing as what was happening here because I know Bravo is not loosening the purse strings to throw a filter on Daisy at her popcorn ceiling department. Like I know that
for sure. There's one thing. There's one thing I know. Bravo's not paying to CGI Daisy's apartment, but there was a weird filter on it. Now, yes, so she watches Eugene, the husband, this is another thing that we got to look up for. We're just meeting these people. But Eugene, the husband's got some red flags to me too. He sort of mothers her, tells her how to set the wine glass, tells her that she's not closing the window right now. This could be just a regular typical old marriage situation where it's the dynamic that they have. Or we just happen to catch two instances where he was bouncing around and maybe she buzzes him around a few more times through whatever. And it balances. But I do want us to clock that thesis because I'm noticing that it was like he was telling her you didn't set that wine glass down. It's just how you close the window. You need to close it this way. And I'm like, uh oh, I'm clocking it. Uh oh. Uh oh. I'm sorry for doing that in the microphone. Why am I doing that? Uh oh. I need to be stopped. This is why I should have people in the room. I'm recording these episodes
because it's like, what am I doing? Okay. Then we cut to Daisy's brunch. And Daisy's also like very quirky. She said she left the gas on at home, the safe open. She was talking to Erica. And I wrote my notes who she talked into because I didn't even recognize Erica at this point. They showed this weird flashback scene where Erica was hiding a knife under her pillow. Because she says the husband anchor travels once a week. He owns that built rewards, which built rewards feels like something. I've heard that a lot built rewards. And but like then I was like thinking like, but what is that exactly? Like, I don't know if I know exactly what it is. I feel like I've learned it at some point. Was it on another show or something? Like it seems so familiar to me. And they meant to look it up. Anyway, the husband anchors. Uh, he leaves once a week to travel. And so when he goes, she says she sleeps with the knife and they filmed the whole thing of her getting the knife under the pillow. And it was obviously very staged, but I like that they showed us.
Then Aaron arrives and she tells everyone someone told her that her Hamptons house was just like a hurricane Katrina house. And again, I just say those were their main like the hurricane Katrina was a different situation. Like I don't think you should be comparing now. Obviously Aaron's big dummy. Sorry to say. And again, I just don't care for Aaron. So I'm going to be picking her apart anyway because I don't care to watch her. And I don't like that she's comparing her vacation home that had some flooding in the basement. And I guess ruin some pictures to people who lost her homes in her in Katrina. Like it's not quite the same thing Aaron. So get with it. Okay, then Jessal arrives and her and Aaron have awkwardness that's very stage. Obviously Jessica calls her a roach and I think it's all fake. They agreed that the show sucked. So they decided to like be a mess. But it's not even good at being like fake messes to me. I'm like I see through all this like a a real mess. Like also I want them to like if you're going to do fake mess. Like if you're going to be
fake about the mess and your relationship, I think you need to go a little harder. Like they let's dive in a little deeper Aaron and Jessal. Like Jessal, you need to activate a little more. Aaron, you need to activate a little more. Sai, you need to activate a little more. Otherwise, it's it's feeling still fake, but like fake and boring. So it's like let's make it at least fake and entertaining or real and boring. You know, like there's I feel like there's a few different options so we could go. But Haley is at this press and she's high. She said she smoked all her weed. She doesn't know why they're even there. No one knows why they're there. I guess it started as like a thing to celebrate Sai, but then it's like well, if it's celebrate Sai, why is Aaron invited? And like it's just an all cast event. But Haley is just high and she's high all the time. Now this is so fun for the TV show. Like I love watching Haley on this show. And I can't even I can't even tell you what she means to me so far. Like she is everything. When I think of
everything I need in a woman in a housewife in a in a potential television mother, I see her and I think there she is. The future of the network. There she is. One of the greatest houses of all time. So with that said, the thing that worries me about how high she is all the time is that it's going to be an issue for the reunion. Like that's the only kind of red flag I have for her. Otherwise like no notes 100% I don't even want her to scale back from the smoking of the weed. I just worry that when we get to the reunion, she's just going to be on the couch high and not know what's going on. And every question Andy asks, she's going to be like, what? I don't remember that because that. And I need to see how activated she gets. I'm not again, I'm not telling her to stop or scale back. I'm just saying that's the only kind of red flag. Otherwise I'm thinking she's going to be with us for a long time. And she's got so much to offer the television screens. And I love her. And I love her. Okay, so then Carol arrives and she says she doesn't even remember meeting size. I was like, oh my god, so good to see you, Carol. And Carol's like, what? She's like, I met you that one time and size like, no, like we met
at my house or like, I don't know, like a stupor something. And Carol's just like staring. And then finally, Carol goes like, oh my gosh, yeah, I remember. And I thought she doesn't actually remember like Carol's lying. She's not a great actress. And you could tell when Carol's lying, which is like, oh my gosh, now I remember. Of course. And she's like, oh, good. And it's like they have the most awkward thing. And that is probably my worst nightmare. Aside from filming a whole season of a reality show and then getting edited out of it, it's like next on the list would probably be going up to someone and saying, hey, so good to see you again. And they're like, I don't remember meeting you. Like that's a pretty horrific thing. But Carol hates brunch. She just wants breakfast. Remember she orders her eggs weird. That was like a thing from the old one. How did you order the eggs? It was like something weird. Daisy though, this is when she reveals that she's got the hot 26 year old tutor. And he texted that he's got a crush on her and said something like, you make me feel 12 again. It's like, well, that's like half your age. It's just something in that much because
you're so young. And then be Haley hearted at, which is like the craziest thing in the world. But like Haley hearting that and knowing now that you jeans always out of the place all the time. And then Haley's got access to all the cameras in the apartment. I don't know. There's some stuff there and I'm into it. And I'm so I'm so invested in this now. And I hope we get to meet the tutor on screen. I hope they might come up. I need to know what he looks like. If he looks, I need to know the relationship with the kid like this is all very unacceptable. Like it's totally inappropriate. And yet I'm like so invested like this is so proper drama that I need. This is yeah, it's inappropriate. Like yeah, you should not be texting your kid's tutor like that's fucked up. Am I loving watching? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Sister. Yes. Sister. Yes. Then Aaron gives a toast to Si. See, oh, this is the other thing. It's like the new women all seem
like sort of naturally quirky. And it's like Si, Aaron and Jessel, every time they try to be quirky, it just falls flat to me. Jessel was I was loving Jessel this week, though. And I don't normally love Jessel, but Carol pointed out that Aaron called Jesperot desperate obnoxious and thirsty. And Aaron's like, Carol, why are you pointing that out? But then this is when Aaron brings up the dermatologist. Aaron's like, should we talk about the dermatologist who injected me and who you said and who said you treated them like shit at my masculine party. And apparently Jessel thought he was like a nobody. And so they did show flashback footage of Jessel being like, hi, nice to me. Like, what's your name? Kind of a similar thing that what just happened with Carol and Si. And it was a flashback. So we saw that Jessel was a little rude. I don't think it was like that rude, but it was like rude enough. Like I would have had hurt feelings if I was dermatologist. But then it's revealed that she still goes to him. So Jessel goes to this dermatologist. She's been like posting videos on her Instagram with her with the dermatologist. So it's like,
I know that feels like something that we're we're latching on to to try to create a storyline too. And I'm like, girls, ladies, gals, women, stars. You don't need to do all that. Like you just need to be like Haley and Daisy and and be letting the drama happen naturally. I don't know. Am I just hating? I'm hating a little bit. I am. But it's Daisy's OG dermatologist. Haley thinks it's corny. And though new women are just like so, they're so good. They're really so good. Even the way they're reacting to Aaron Jessel and Si and all of this dermatologist stuff, it's like, oh yeah, these women are good. Now Aaron and Jessel argue over who has real friends. And Si's just enjoying it. And all of this feels fake. Aaron apologized to Jessel. Jessel accepts the apology and also apologizes for throwing Aaron out of her party last week. So the way that they made up as just like, now, is it conflict and resolution? Yes. So I should probably be praising him saying like, yeah, they had conflict. They moved on and had resolution. But it didn't feel real. So at least
to the me the audience. And now Haley says at the party, you told Allison a tip broke my nose. And she was my date. It's true. But she's not talking to me now. So she says that to Aaron because she's pissed at Aaron because Aaron had told Allison the date about the double D situation. Break breaking the nose. Now that's a star move because Haley just joined this cast. And so she's high as a kite and she's still like, you know what? I'm still mad at you Aaron. And so she still brings it. But everyone seems to hate Aaron. And I think Aaron should be the villain. But I need her to be more villainous. She's kind of a boring villain. And Haley called it out, called it as she sees it. She said she's so vanilla so boring, whatever. And Aaron, it seems with the way that she talked shit on the ultimate girls trip and we see her in the car. And the way she's sort of maneuvering, it seems like she's leaning into villainry, but not enough. Like she's just kind of tiptoeing into villainry. And it's like, Aaron, just be a full blown villain. Like I think I might enjoy Aaron if she was full blown villain. But instead she's just sort of
like, oh, me tiptoe. Let me just tiptoe my little tiptoes into villainry. And it's like, Aaron, you need to jump in the water and cannonball into that villainry. Like I need to rest just fully be a villain. Like I start petting a cat, like the inspector of that gadget villain. In just, I don't know what that was, the inspector gadget villain, wasn't it? Remember that guy? Didn't they not show his face? There was something about 90s television that I loved. 80s, 90s. Like when they would have characters whose faces would just be obscured for no real reason, it was like a home improvement. Remember the neighbor next door neighbor? It's like they just weren't showing his face even in the promotional footage when they would do cast photos and stuff. They would have to find a way to hide his face, the next door neighbor. And it's like, what the fuck is going on? And if I was an actor and I got hired for the sitcom that I was a main cast around for 10 years or nine seasons it was, I think, then I would hope that they would show me a little bit so that I could get hired for another gig. But they don't even, they don't even do that.
But it was a weird time where it's like, let's just hide their face. It'll be like a funny character thing. And it's like, what? Why is this happening? Okay. Then Daisy asked Carol about love story. And Carol doesn't want to talk about it, but it's like, you have to. Then this is when Jessel goes in and she's like, was Carolyn beset a bitch. That was a terrible impression of Jessel. But you know what I'm trying to do. Carol says she was fun and a girls girl and she's, Carol's not watching the show. She said she watched four minutes with her best team. And Jessel's like, well, what do you think of Carolyn beset summer? And then Carol's like, yeah, I don't love it. And Jessel's like, well, Carol, you're dressing like her now. She's like, you're dressing just like her. And I thought like, this is good on Jessel. Like, obviously, it's inappropriate. Like if I was Carol, I'd be pissed at Jessel, but as an audience member, I'm like, yes, Jessel, this is what we need. Thank you. Thank you for doing your job, clocking into work, Jessel. Thank you. This is what we need you to do. And she's going in. She's not letting go. And this is what we need. But the trend, it was very trendy that whole, I feel like all of the summer, it was really trendy that JfK
Jr. situation or spring and summer was all about like, Carolyn beset and JfK Jr. like the looks and trends. And the thing with trends now is they move too quickly, don't they? Remember that one brief moment in time recently, how is everyone's like the mob wife aesthetic? And I feel like that lasted for two seconds. And same with this love story situation. If I like the, it lasted for two seconds. And now the way this social media and trends move, it's too quick. We have to take a quick break here. Thank you so much. We'll be right back.

Jessel says that Carol's a vibe diffuser and she says Jessel says she would love it if everybody after she passed away if everybody did a Jessel summer after her death and all dressed like her. And Jessel then even says at the table she says, so do you not think that that family was cursed? This was way too far, Jessel. I loved watching it. Thank you. It was way too far. I was so great of you to say, but it was way too far and it was not right and it was horrible, but it was so fun to watch. So thank you, but also terrible of you. And I am sorry to you, Carol, but it was great TV. Okay, so Carol shuts down. I get it. These are these were her like on Carol's point of view, I understand because Carol's these we're talking about her husband and her best friends like these people had a tragic passing. Carol wrote a whole book about it. And so I understand why Carol's shuts down is upset, but also it's like everybody culturally was talking about them. And Carol's
rejoining this show. It's the same thing with the Epstein situation. It's like culturally, if everybody's talking about he want to go back on reality TV, like you have to understand that everybody's we have to talk about all this because it will be so disappointing if we get to the end of the season, there's like barely a mention about any of this. Like we would all have been like, why did you bring Carol back? Carol is for a nap though, which is also troublesome a red flag. And I know Carol's like I saw this thing about the ages of the cast members and this is no age shame because you know I love an older housewife. I prefer 60 plus. But Carol is like 20 years older, I think than most everybody on the cast like she's substantially older than every single person. So her going for a nap, it's like yeah, if I'm out with people 20 years younger than I am, I'm in a need to nap too. Like I can't hang. And she had to leave before the burlesque show started. Burlesque. I love that movie. I love that movie. I haven't watched in a while, but there's nothing better than Sharon Christina Aguilera. Cheryles. Wagon Wheel, Wattoushi. Wagon Wheel, Wattoushi.
I love. I love. I love. Cher. I love her. But anyway, they do a little burlesque at the venue that they're at. Aaron says Jessel's a cloud chaser. She says that under her breath. I think it was Daisy. And I agree, but also they, anyone who's on a reality show is a cloud chaser. I'm sorry, but I don't think by, I think by definition, like you're all a cloud chaser if you're on a reality television, especially the real house size of New York City. And like I hate to tell you this Aaron, but you might want to look in the mirror because you're a cop. Jester two, y'all are. It's not like they're paying y'all that much to be on this television program. And it's not like you're doing it for the art. So you're in what world? In what world are you not like the what is the reason for doing the real houses of New York? If you're Aaron, I'm sorry, like what are you bringing awareness to flooding? That you didn't know what happened? Like are you bringing awareness to stacking gold jewelry? Like what do you? What's the humanitarian cause that you're doing this show for
or what's the like you're it's not for the money because they don't make a lot of money on these shows, especially in this year. If you've been on the show 100 years, you might be making money. But this is your third season. Like you're still not bankrolling in the words of Gina Kaceta from Orange County House says, I didn't know you had bankroll like dad. And she don't have bankroll like that. She it's like very odd to just call other people on the cast of cloud chaser when it's like what are you what so what are you doing this? Why are you are you doing it just for for fun? Or like it you're doing it for the cloud. You're doing it for the social media sponsorships the cloud, the fame. And let's be honest about that Aaron. Let's be honest and set their own jessil under the bus. Because now I never even liked jessil but now I'm like jessil good behind me. Good behind me. I got to defend your ass. Even though I'm still pissed at you for I don't even know. I just didn't like her the last two seasons. But now I feel like I need to defend jessil because she's bringing something to the show. And Aaron's throwing under the bus every chance she gets which I should be praising because at least that's giving us something. I don't know. You know what sometimes my opinions
they contradict themselves. But the truth is I hate Aaron and I'm enjoying jessil this week. Erica does not like Aaron though. She hears the shit talking Erica and it's like I don't understand they just made up and now why is Aaron throwing jess on to the bus after they just made out. But you know who isn't offended is Daisy because Daisy's sitting there listening to Aaron talk shit about jessil. And I didn't not once your daisies say like Aaron you shouldn't be saying that or Aaron you just made up with jessil or Aaron that's inappropriate. She's my friend like I didn't hear none of that. Daisy was just sitting there like eating it up. She was just having the best time. She was having the best time. Meanwhile the other one was over there in the corner. Hi. Haley was just like thinking when am I going to get my next gummy. I need my vape pen. She said something about her cartridge being low. I love her. Then that's the end of the episode next week on the show. We talk a little bit more about Daisy's popcorn ceilings. Haley plays tennis. Aaron goes after Haley. And she says Haley broke up a marriage of a man with eight children.
The what? What? A what? I need no more about that. Haley did you break up a marriage of a man who had eight children? What's going on there? And by the way I don't know if Haley, oh wait, oh my god. I'm so stupid. She's talking about the gosslands. I'm so stupid. The eight kids. That's what she's talking about. That she's saying Haley broke up the marriage of the gosslands. Okay. Okay. Actually this opens up a whole new conversation because I'm just putting this together because I watch it in the preview for next week. She says you broke up the family of eight, man with eight children. And I'm like, oh crap. Like I didn't realize what she was talking about. She's talking about the gosslands family. Now as a gosslem story and I do know that they had troubles in their marriage way prior to Haley entering the scene. Now I don't know when Haley entered the scene but I don't think we could blame Haley for breaking up the gosslem family. I think if anything we could blame the TLC network, the barber who cut cake gosslands hair, we can blame. There's plenty of people we can blame. I watched every
episode of that show multiple times. You can blame it on the stress of having eight children. You could blame it on the sudden fame they got when the show started really taking off. You can blame it on a million things. You could blame it on the time she yelled at John at the toy store or the time in the confessional when cake gosslands said to John, why are you breathing so loud? And said he was breathing too loud. And what else? You could blame so many things on the dissolution of that marriage. But I don't know that we could blame Haley. I don't know. I think it was over before then. If they were even still married when Haley entered the picture, I think it still wasn't her fault. So you know what? Get behind me, Haley. I'm going to defend your ass against Aaron's hater fueled rant that's coming next week. Oh, I'm about to be pissed next week at Aaron. Aaron, why are you doing this to me? Why are you doing this? Not today. Not on my watch. I guess this is why this is probably why Haley's posted the picture with her in John Gosslin to show that
they're still friendly. She's getting ahead of it. This is why we need cake gosslin on the show. At the very bare minimum, this is going to be a call to action for the Watcher Depends Live team. Now, I don't know what cake gosslin might be promoting at any given time, but I'm going to need their bookers to reach out to her. She didn't even have to promote anything, but please reach out to her. We need to get her on Watcher Depends Live. I don't hear who the other guest is. Actually, I would love it if it was me, but it doesn't have to be me, but it doesn't have to be someone from Roni. It just has to be on Roni night, and I need Andy to grill her. Even though she probably won't give any interesting answers, because every time she is interviewed, it's sort of boring. But I do think they need to get her on here. So we can get to the bottom of like, did Haley break up marriage? Like, how does she feel about Haley being on the real estate? New York, do they have a relationship? Did they ever have, did she ever contact Haley after the situation happened? John, like, I need all the answers. And so please, bookers, Watcher Depends Live Bookers, please
get on that and just call up her. And she's still got a publicist, but please call her. Reach out at DM, send out a smoke signal or a morse code or whatever you got to do to get kickossins ass in the clubhouse so that we can get her information. Or one of those kids, they're all adults now. If they're willing, I think one of them's got a book. So it's like, I hate to tell them all how to do their job, but it's like, it's kind of like, I am telling you, what to do for your job? Like, I need you to put one of them on Watcher Depends Live. And it would be fun if they put them with like a random guest. Like, I would like it if they put her with like, I don't know. I always used to like on Watcher Depends Live when they would put Chena Shea with like a newscaster or like a newsperson. It was like, or Kristen Dodie and a newsperson. Like, that was always so funny to me because then they would, they would always play some game where it would be like a lightning round where they ask Chena Shea, like world events questions with the newscaster next to her. And like, that is what's missing on Watcher Depends Live lately. And I need
them to do that again. I don't like these like cable news talking heads all the time, but like, it might be worth revisiting putting a weird mashup like that together. And or maybe like one of the next gen NYC kids with like a newscaster. Like, that would be fun. But also K-Gaslin or one of the Gaslin or even John, I don't care for John, but I would like any of them, any of them. Okay, that's the end of episode. Thank you all so much for listening. I will be back later this week with the real estate like city premiere recap. I am so excited for Salt Lake to come back. And they always deliver. And they're so fun to recap. Ah, and I'm happy that we're moving. And I again, apologize to everyone who's upset that I'm not covering Orange County anymore this season. Although overwhelmingly, I heard from more people who are like good riddance, you know, like way more people were like, oh, I gave up weeks ago on that show. But I do, I still feel like a little bad. I'm sure there were some people are like enjoying the recaps. But I'm glad that we're moving on because I feel so much happier, lighter, fresher. And like, we're going to have so much
more fun covering Rony. Even if the season of Rony turns out to be bad, I feel like we have enough enough there that'll be fun to recap and see with Salt Lake City Housewives. Even though I think they're both going to be good seasons. Still better than Orange County. And so I feel like where were Juvenade? We're fresh, renewed. Remember that one season when Ramona got her haircut in between seasons? And she came back and she said, don't I look like Cameron? Yes. You know, I'm Rejude, Renated. I'm Ren- Renued. I'm whatever. She kept saying Rejude, Renued. And then I think she came out of the skincare name that or something. Anyway, that's how I feel covering these news shows. Some exciting. And speaking of our original Rony cast, there was a trailer that came out for their news show that's going to be an eGold the Golden Life. It was, it's filmed in Florida and then also I think the Hamptons. I think they picked it up for a second season. So we're still going to get all the antics of those gals, which I'm excited to watch. We'll see how it happens. But the trailer came out and I think it looks great. It looks fun. There was even like a Jules. Remember
Jules from the Ralses in New York? There's appearance from her. And who knows? Maybe we'll get an Alex McCord appearance on that show. I am Brooklyn trying to survive in this economy working. Alex McCord is going to be appearing on Ultimate Girls' trip, but maybe she'll go on the Golden Life for an episode or two. Who knows? Who's to say? But I'm excited what they're going to be bringing. And I'm excited to watch even though I don't even know how we watch E anymore. Is E even like a network? The E channel? I don't know. I don't know if it is. I think it might be. Who's to say?
