Well, hello and welcome to Crappy Hour Live. I'm Ronnie. That's Ben. Hello, Ben. Hi. How are you? Welcome. We are live. We are live. We are live. This is your Instagram live show. You're on it. What do you think about that? Well, technically, it's now a YouTube show. And the green screen is not up today. If you want to see it. Wait, let me rotate.

Oh, it's actually really not up at all. I can't even rotate it for you. No, I'm going for an au naturel set of just good old-fashioned blinds. Some gauzy curtains. Gauzy curtains. Let's see. Gauzy curtains. Gauzy curtains in the evening. I am back here after escaping death. Oh, my God.

i'm so glad you're alive i almost died actually the other day i was uh it was saturday i was riding my vespa around i know everybody in the audience is like damn it i know i told him not to ride that vestibule he'd die no i'm like totally fine riding the vespa for the most part i rode on laurel canyon on a saturday night which is crazy there's drunks everywhere it's like

you know, if you're going to die, that's when to do it. Got back over the hill, over here to the Val. Well, this house is up a very, very steep hill. Okay. And so I kind of took the turn a little to

I took the turn wrong. And so I had to stop the Vespa. So I stopped it, not realizing on a very steep incline that shit is heavy. That is a zillion pounds. I don't know how many. It's a vehicle. It's a vehicle. You have to get authority from the government to put your butt on it.

So I was standing on a very steep incline with a vehicle and stopped it. Normally, you have to gun it. You have to be like, I'm on the hill, and you've got to be like, and then you gun it up, and then you make it, and you feel like a superstar. But I missed it. And so I stopped the Vespa, and it started tipping over, and I was like, no! Because I could not... Listen, I have no arm strength. I look like a sleeping bag thrown over a folding chair. That's my new body type. There is nothing there. I can barely...

I can barely get out of bed. I was thinking beanbag. Wow. I have to roll out of bed, Ben. I can't even lift myself off of the bed these days. I have no strength. Look, I don't hold the microphone. It's in a stand. I don't hold it. Look at this Topo Chico. That's common practice. Oh, God.

Oh, geez. I would love it. By the way, I would love a Tipo Chico right now, I have to say. Well, you should have a box by your thing like me because guess what? It's hard to lift them from the kitchen. So I'm coming up. It slowly starts to fall on me. I can't do anything because I have no strength. I fall. I'm crushed under this fucking thing. I'm Ryan Reynolds in that movie where he got stuck in a hole or whatever and there was no one to come save him. Buried alive.

yeah yeah because i have people around me they're not going to save me what are they what are they fucking you know they hate me all i do is make noise over here all they do here is hammering and drilling they're they're glad i'm dead you know so i'm like i'm gonna die here i literally was like i'm just gonna go to bed because not only did it fall over on me it dragged me down the hill you know what i mean it's like a metal comforter it's good you should go to bed like you know what it's cozy

So I dragged the hill down the hill. I was like, oh, oh, oh, oh, God, no. It was like a very slow tragedy. And then finally, I was like, you can't die here. Ben, we'll make fun of you for the rest of eternity. You can't die pinned under a fucking Vespa. So I...

In the valley, Ben. I mean, if you're going to do it, do it on this side of the hills, but don't. You can either die in the valley or you can die under a Vespa, but you can't do both. Yeah, I had one free leg, and I said, you know what? I may not have arm strength, but I've got leg strength, and I pushed with my leg. I went, oh, and screamed a lot until I could at least get it up enough to get my crushed leg.

So I'm alive, you know, here to tell the tale. Wasn't that a fascinating one? So anyway, am I giving up the Vespa? No, I'm going to fix that light. If I give up anything, it's going to be this goddamn house. I'm moving back to my old rent-controlled little apartment in West Hollywood where everything's flat. Everything's one tiny little room. I don't have to worry about any of this shit. No construction, no crashing Vespas into driveways because they're too steep. None of this bullshit.

Yeah, no, you don't want any of that. You want flat. You know, the thing is, no house is perfect. And you have an amazing new spot. And, you know, there's always going to be a downside. And the downside is you have a driveway that is like K2. And you know what? You'll figure it out. You'll figure out a process. Well...

Thanks for the support. Wait, Robin in the chat says, imagine this all happened in the background of the Valley filming. Could you imagine they're shooting a scene and you come tumbling down the hill under your Vespa? Kristen's like, seriously? Seriously? I'm engaged. It's a very important announcement I want to make to the collective. Hello, members of the Valley. It's like... Yeah. Yeah.

Well, I'm glad you're okay. And I'm glad to quote Karen Huger, the injuries are not life-threatening, just ankles and ribs. I love Karen Huger saying the injuries are not life-threatening, you know, a month after her DUI. And she's like in glam, don't worry, everyone, my injuries are not life-threatening. I'm like, yeah, we can figure that out. We see. I forgot she said that.

Just ankles and ribs. Just ankles and ribs. Ankles and ribs. Ankles and ribs. Well, guess what? No one is here to hear about me almost killing myself by making stupid decisions. Let's get on to some Bravo news, shall we then? Kind of a lot happened. I mean, nothing. That's why I told the motorcycle story, guys. There's not a ton in the news. But what do you want to start with? Because the stuff that happened was pretty good.

Yeah, you know what? I want to talk about something that we talked about on Jeff Lewis a little bit because it's been people keep asking me about it and it's coming up. So it'd be fun to weigh in on the whole Joel Kim booster and Shannon Bedore situation that happened on the set of their show that they're filming for Bravo. Okay, let's do it.

So, basically, the long and the short of it is that Joel Kim Booster is hosting this... We've talked about this show that's going to be like single ladies on Bravo. So, like Giselle, Countess Luann, Shannon, and I think Ashley. And they're looking for love. And Joel Kim Booster is the host of this show. And I guess there was like a wrap party. Yeah.

um, he went off on Shannon Bedore on his live, um, Samantha Bush, a luminary in our Bravo content creator universe, uh, posted this, uh, it said, you know, I had no idea Joel Kim booster was hosting housewife hotel or whatever it's called. He just went live and cooked Shannon Bedore. Like he roasted her, chopped her up, served her for breakfast. Oh, well, I mean, and I, I hope he served a locale, uh,

sauce with me as long as he's eating me because I would prefer not to have any butter or sugar involved in the roasting. Well, I may make someone angry, but I would never want to make someone fat. So I hope he... The good news is I am real for real, so if you do roast me and make me for breakfast, you will

We'll have a low calorie load. So enjoy that, Joel Kim. Yeah. So he really went off. The brother was going crazy. So here is one of his posts. This is on Insta.

And it says, just because you're a pathetic drunk on a reality television show best known for a string of failed relationships and a DUI does not make you a star and does not give you license to treat the people you work with like they are subhuman. Period. They will make me delete this, but DM me if you'd like to see some videos. Besos. So that was his first one. First of all.

She is a star, sir. She is a star. She is mostly a star because she is a drunk, crazy person with a string of failed relationships. I'm sorry that you don't like the fact that that has made her a star, but it has. So the fact that you're even arguing with that puts you on shaky ground for me. This whole thing puts you on shaky ground.

My favorite trend is when people make grand proclamations about our Bravo liberties or Bravo shows as if they are breaking news to us. Like Bethany, like the, like the, like the vanity fair article that says, guys, they drink on Bravo. Some of them even do cocaine. And now this Shannon Bador is a monster.

I mean, what show have you been watching for the past 10 years? Of course she is. She's our wonderful, neurotic, open wound of a monster. She made David Bedore stick his finger non-sexually up her butt to scan for plastic. No, he ended up healing her. You always get this wrong. David actually put his finger up her butthole to clear her of psychological debris. And it actually worked and made her better. Don't you remember? Got it.

Either way. It was like the most romantic thing in that. She made, she made Jenina last season take like a butt, a butt enema and,

on like it was like a colonic at home colonic on camera and you know jen's probably like um well i'm a newbie i guess i have to do this shannon has a storied history she calls she calls her all of her friends late at night drunk and terrorizes them with stories of her woes well not only that we've seen shannon for years on the show telling off production and getting so pissed off and trying to shut down cameras i mean how many scenes are shannon going you and

not filming this acting, trying to take off her mic and just losing her shit and screaming at the cameras. Now, we've seen that, but we've also seen that they fuck with her constantly on this show and try to get her to break down on purpose. You know what I mean? Like this whole Alexis storyline, first of all. I mean, that's just one in a long string. And she just fucking loses her mic. Now, does that explain...

excuse her for being a monster on the set? No, of course not. And if that happened, if he had posted something that was like, yeah, worked with Shannon Bedore, she was a freaking nightmare. Don't ever meet your heroes. Or something like that. But that he said, I mean, there's more to this that we'll get into, but he said something like, I went up to her. He said something like, I went up to her at the finale party, at the shooting, the wrap party, and I told her off. And I'm like, wow.

good for you. Like who, who thinks that that's great? Like who thinks that it's like great to go tell off like a man going off to like curse out an older woman. Like there's better ways to do it. Get a podcast. You know what I mean? Yeah.

I also feel like as a gay man, one of my favorite things is when a lady of a certain age acts horrifically. I don't know what it is. It's just some strange thing I have. Anytime anyone...

like anytime a real housewife has ever been mean to me, which really hasn't actually ever happened. Now that I think about it, no one's really been mean, but I have, I've had some frosty encounters here and there. And rather than saying like, wow, she was so cold. I think, wow, I am honored. I am honored that I got to witness that. Like how special, like, I think that like if you were to, for instance, like,

If you were to be in a restaurant, if you were waiting on Patti LuPone, Ronnie, and Patti LuPone was just being a nightmare, would you say, you know what? Fuck Patti LuPone. She's a nightmare. Or would you say, ugh.

I feel blessed. I was given, I was given the joy of watching Patti LuPone. If Patti LuPone went off on me, I would take out my phone and start recording it. Cause that's the thing that she hates most is people recording on there. So she hates cell phones. And so I'll just fuck with her that way. I'd be like, Oh my God, this is amazing. Could you yell at me again, but do it right into the camera because that would just enrage her more, you know? Uh,

Yeah, I mean, play with it. But anyway, Shannon was like, I don't know what this guy was talking about. They asked her to show. And of course, Shannon is such a Shannon answer. Well, I just, I was, I was shocked. I was just so shocked because during the show, he was just, he was so lovely. And he said, you're so lovely. And he came up to me and said, you're so lovely. So I, I, well, well, well, well, well.

She was very shocked by the whole thing. I had Compton tickets to Vicki and Shannon live, and he was going to come to our show in Omaha. And it was just, it was, I thought we were friends, but apparently not. So did he not go tell her off?

To her face? Was that all in his head? I think he did tell her off. Let me tell you, my mom does this, where she's like, Eddie, my dad, I was at this restaurant today, and they gave me my food after everybody else. And I called that manager over, and I said, you listen here. No one treats me like this in a restaurant. And I will get my food. And those people have had their food much longer than me. Well, I heard one of these stories. She was talking about a meal I was at her wit.

I was with, I was at with her and I saw this interaction and here's what she did. She said, did those people get their food before us? And I said, yeah. And she said, and she looked around and I said, you're not calling the manager.

And that was it. That was the entire thing. But in her mind, it became this like, I told them off and I'm taking this to social, which I don't know if I told you, but that's like her most recent thing where she gets mad at somebody and she says, I'm taking this to social. I have a Twitter and I'm going to let people, I'm going to tell people. So do you think it was that kind of a moment where he thinks he told her off, but he didn't really tell her off? I think he probably told her off.

I think he did.

You know, I just, you know, it's here's the thing. If you're going to make if you're going to post that on social media, if you are going to take it to social and he did take it to social, then you probably probably are going to say something to her face as well. You know, I mean, I mean, I don't know. I think people are just so weak. Not him. I mean, I don't know him, obviously. Here's what I know about him. He's talented. He works a ton. And he's, you know, Bravo loves him. He's like a Bravo darling. He's funny. He's cute.

He's like charismatic and he hates Shannon Bedore now. That's what he hates. He hates Shannon. So, yeah, I thought this was pretty gross and tasteless. I did not like it. Even if you felt like she was bad to work with. So unprofessional to do it this way.

And then his next one said, well, that was quick. I guess they told him to take it down. Probably something along the lines of, hi, we just paid you to be a lot of money to host a show that you're ruining with your bullshit. Take it down. You're never going to work with us again, sir. And we are NBC Universal, not just some shady little housewives network. So take that shit down. You fuck. And so he did. And he said, well, that was quick. Anyway, don't regret it. Hope you screenshot it. Hope she suffers.

Yeah, that's this is not really what I imagine people look for from their TV hosts, like if you're an employer. So this is not not a great look, not a great look. But, you know, it's just gross. And then his last one as well. Let's just say I can't imagine what John Jansen went through. Poor guy. Well, you know what?

I literally can imagine what John Jansen went through. Just watch Orange County. I literally know exactly what he went through, how that entire relationship played out. It's actually the most easily like imagined scenario of all this. Yeah. So I did not like this. Let's see. He responds to the Hollywood reporter. Let's see if there are screenshots. Okay. So then he,

Juliana, I'm sorry. I got lost. I thought I was clicking on a different link. Joel Kim Booster responds to, y'all, isn't it your literal job to tell people in my industry apart? Okay, so this, use my preferred credit, Saturday Night Live's comedian friend. I don't know. I'm reading the wrong thing. I'm sorry. Go ahead. Talk about something while I look for this.

I don't know, but I did do a Google search just now. I did Joel Kim Booster. I did a Google News search, and all the headlines popped me up. They're like, Shannon Bedore is confused over this. Shannon Bedore is baffled. Shannon Bedore doesn't get it. And it's actually kind of funny because that's so like what I imagine a Shannon Bedore news alert to be like. This just in. Shannon Bedore is confused.

by nest thermostats. I mean, it's a nest, but it's actually, I don't see any birds. And as far as I can see, do the nest thermostats still work if you have an empty nest or is it only for people who want to actually be around me? I just want to know. I'm just curious. Yeah. He said something like, I don't apologize for,

for what I said, because it's all true. But I do regret how I said it. Like, it was kind of a half-assed apology. I guess he got in trouble. I apologize for my delivery. Yeah, something like that. Which, I mean, the delivery was shit. But now that I'm looking him up, one of the headlines is, was Joel Kim Booster actually heckled on stage? And they're accusing him of staging a heckler, which was the last thing that got him a lot of attention. So...

So that's him. That should be a fun show. And also, just, you know, all Shanna's behavior and stuff aside, why would Shanna be telling off production? My guess is, I have no idea, my guesses are that they fucked with her like crazy on this love show and set her up for failure over and over again because Shanna Bedore is happiest

She makes the audience happiest when she's miserable. I have no doubt that they set her up with the shadiest, worst people and then did like pulled bachelor moves where they just made her look stupid at every turn. And she finally lost her shit. Now, I don't know who she even yelled at. I wish we got to know, you know.

I need more. There was someone on Twitter. I want more of it. Yeah. Someone on Twitter suspected that they had put up a photo like Joel can boost her with, um, a lady. And then, so someone on Twitter was like, maybe it was this lady. I have no idea. Uh,

but I'm, and obviously if Shannon did something that was like wildly inappropriate, like problematic, we obviously do not stand for that. But since we don't know any details, we can only just imagine she had a meltdown over, you know, like she wanted to have like a, she probably wanted to like hire a taco truck for the cast. And they're like, this has already been catered. And also in Mexico, that feels wrong. So, well, I, I, it's like, it's like, I can't do anything right around here. Um, so it's probably something like that, which would be kind of funny.

Okay, so in other news, we have The Valley. The Valley is really great at keeping itself in the news. For people who really just disappeared from all public life for years, they really came back swinging, eh? Yeah, The Valley has been a steady font, dare I say a spigot, of gossip items ever since it went off the air. They've been really doing a great job off-season.

So some of the big news that started was Jax Taylor gave Brittany Cartwright full custody of Sun Cruz and claims they were never legally married. I thought he already gave her full custody even when they were married. Did he know he had a kid until recently? Yeah.

He will only care enough to steal you away if you're like a classic car sitting in your mom's driveway. So this is from page six. And this was October 2nd, by the way. If people are like, this is so old. Well, guess what? So am I. And also crappy hour. Take it to social.

Yeah, take it to social. No, don't take it to social. That's my worst nightmare. We're already here. We're already here. And also, I'm gaining weight, so it's really hard for me to cross my legs. But I got crossing my legs privilege when I lost weight, and I just always want to cross them now. But my legs are too fat again, and I just don't care. I'm going to keep crossing them anyway, even though it hurts. I don't care. Maybe they're swollen from Vespa injuries. Oh, God.

God's like, wow, you crashed your Vespa. You're fatter now. Boom. Karma. So karma that has nothing to do with the actual crime. Did you realize your Vespa accident was basically you just playing the OTEF competition in Big Brother, right? It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Krappens commercial.

Credit karma, evolve your finances. Okay. So page six is all about Jax Taylor giving Brittany Cartwright full custody. Okay.

So this was a crazy story when this happened, right? Jax Taylor is given Britney full custody. The 45-year-old represented himself. Jax should not be allowed. I know that it's the law that we as Americans have the right to defend ourselves in a court of law. Some people shouldn't, okay? Stupid people shouldn't. It's like stupid people shouldn't be allowed to have babies or represent themselves.

The last person I remember representing themselves in court was the shooter on the Long Island Railroad. And so it's like that guy and Jax, which is not good company. But truthfully, I can't imagine anyone ever wanting to live up to the sentence, I represent Jax Taylor. That's not a phrase you ever want in your life, whatever the context is.

Even Mark Garagos is like, fuck no, busy. So he checked a box in some paperwork that said they were never legally married. And then we get pictures of them at Christmas and pictures of them having the baby and stuff like that. Taylor also listed their LA home as their only asset, but requested to divide the property at a later time. He filed in person and a rep for them did not immediately return a

A comment. So this dummy. He's going to fight for the property, but not for the kid. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, I don't want to make any effort for the kid. The property I'll make an effort for at a later time. Yeah. It's going to take a little longer. I might need an actual lawyer for that. That sofa was a freebie from HGTV. So we are, I am going to need to make a claim on that one. Yes.

So then we found out later that Jax just clicked the box wrong, and he didn't mean to click that because Brittany, as Brittany said in one of her responses to all this news was, well, I guess paperwork is just hard for some people. We were married. And Lance Bass was like, preacher Lance Bass was there. Pastor Bass signed the paperwork. So it's real. He's a bastard.

um yeah uh so I guess it was real so now Jax has hired uh he's refiling for divorce and he's hiring Kevin Federline's attorney that tells me so I think he just looked up lawyer to fight Brittany and that came up it's just so stupid but you just took whichever maybe he looked up toxic

but I think that like he, uh, like Jax, first of all, I don't believe that was an accident. I think he was going to try to sneak away from this. That way he wouldn't maybe have to split assets or wouldn't have to do any number of things. I think he was going to try to pull a fast one. Right. Uh, I think first of all, it's probably a good thing that Jax does not want to raise the kid. I think that's probably best if it's solely Brittany. Um,

But that being said, it is like, I can't imagine anyone who's surprised that Jax is like, I'm single again. I don't want to raise a kid. He's probably like, I don't see the point of being single, but still being, you know, burdened with the obligations of being a parent. So yeah, you take the kid. I'm going to go spread my seed.

Yeah, and I've been reading a lot of speculation about it. And some people are like, oh, no, that's kind of normal for one parent to just take full custody. And then he'll, you know, like my husband did it and he still raises our kid. You know, you'd never know because he don't have the custody, but it still happens. So maybe that's what it is. He's just trying to make everything easier on old Brit. But we know from his past that that's not really how he operates. I mean, when they first separated, he made her he made her move with the kid.

And he stayed in the house. So if anybody's like, oh, Jax is just doing this to make it easier for Brittany. Probably not, guys. I mean, look at the man's history. And stop being fooled by Jax. For fuck's sake, just stop it. If anybody out there is like, oh, my God, stop being mean to Jax. He's really going through a hard time. Jax is the hard time. He is. Everyone else is going through the Jax. So stop defending fucking Jax. I can't.

Well, and also, I mean, there's part of me that also feels like this is sadly probably a negotiation chip. Like, right. He gives, he's like, no, you know what? You just, you take care of Cruz. You take care of Cruz. By the way, I'd like our house, but I gave you our son. Like, yeah, I kind of feel like it's some sort of weird bartering that he's setting up. I feel so cruel to say this. It is someone's child.

but it's also a little surprising to me. Okay. This may get a little dark and I apologize, but it's my honesty and it's an honest reaction that I had, which is that, you know, when Jax's dad died, very sad, Jax was really rattled by it. You know, he lost his dad and now he has a kid and he's like,

He's like, yeah, see you later. So it's like it sort of is a weird. It just sat very strangely with me. Now, of course, I'm making very deep and very serious implications about a situation. I don't know the truth about, but this is just a stupid YouTube show. So that's it. So wait, what are you saying? He lost his dad. So he spent a lot of time talking. You know, he a lot of what has shaped him recently has been talk about how we no longer as his dad, his relationship with his dad. He talks a lot about his relationship with his dad.

And so it's, and then, you know, I, I shouldn't infer that because Brit is going to have full custody that he's going to have no relationship with his son, but it just, to me, those two concepts sat sort of strangely together.

The idea of like giving up, you know, on the one hand, really talking deeply and, and find and, and finding sympathy for talking about a relationship with, with your father. And then at the same time being like, yeah, you know, here you can just, you can have the kid. Yeah. Yeah.

uh so some comments in the chat um mike says i saw a rumor that brittany couldn't even find someone to be her pretend boyfriend for the show because she was trying it she was wasn't she like seen around town with a love island person or whatever really oh that's too bad jack says trash uh from bonnie jan says it's a really shitty person who voluntarily gives up their kid

Someone said if they're sent, well, I don't want to read that one. I mean, the truth is this though, if he fought for the kid, it'll be like, fuck Jax. He'll be a bit terrible dad. I mean, it probably is the best. It truly is the best outcome for the kid. Like it just, but it also speaks to, I think again, Jax just being the worst. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, that's that one. So it'll be interesting to see what happens there. There was other stuff in the Valley. Let me go back to that window. Yep. Seriously. And that was that Kristen Doty's dog Gibson lands an ad with Debbie Harry for Gucci. Yes, I believe I added this link into our document because, you know, I'm all up on that.

What did you say? Well done, darling. You know, I'm really up on the important news. But yeah, so there's an ad for Gucci with Debbie Harry of Blondie and Gibson. For some reason, they cast Gibson as Debbie Harry's dog that she's posing with. So basically, there's this image and Debbie Harry is kind of like sitting on a nice leather. She's actually in the back of a car, a luxury vehicle. I can't tell if it's like a Maybach. I think so.

And then Gibson, sort of out of focus, is like, Gibson's like, wait a second. Is this real? Have I graduated to luxury? Will I be riding around in a Rolls Royce from now on with Debbie Harry? Is this my new life? Anyone with a dog knows the look on his face. He sees a treat. Someone is holding a treat and telling him, sit. Just sit very still. He's just like...

oh god there's a bone i want that bone what do i got to do i'm sitting do you want me to lay down i'll lay down join the shake i'll shake shake your hand give me your hand don't do it it's a treat come here god please give me the tree so doty has now re-grammed this ad and she's like gibson for gucci blondie gucci hashtag my baby is too cool oh wow seriously seriously this makes me famous

Yeah, so Kristen out there doing the stage mom thing. I think that's what you should do. Get that kid working, girl. Listen, I mean, say what you will about Kristen, but she basically landed a Gucci ad. Vanderpump Rules kids, she's making it. Also, Debbie Harry, what the fuck are you doing over there? Is it fish oil? I mean, is it prayer? You look amazing. If you want to know what she's doing, just call her.

You know, let me tell you, this has nothing to do with Bravo. Let me tell you, speaking of Kristen, big pests here in the Valley. I'm learning all sorts of things about the Valley lately, guys, because I'm new here. One of them is there's a mosquito epidemic. These fuckers are as big as helicopters flying around here. I was in...

regular Hollywood yesterday there were I was outside all night or Saturday before I crashed my vest but almost died like Ryan Reynolds in that movie I don't think he died anyway the point is there were no mosquitoes here they're everywhere I've had my door open for three minutes and they're like they're like search lights coming down to look for people who are running from the cops well mosquitoes

Fauci just posted something in the New York Times saying that he just got over a West Nile virus and it was horrific. And the thing is this, my friend last week posted a sign, must have been in this area because she lives in Hollywood, and the sign said, West Nile virus, like warning, West Nile virus spotted here. Really? Yeah.

And then my friend Jessica told me, Rondal, do you know where those bugs are coming from? I'm serious right now. Not even kidding you. They're coming from money trees. Apparently, people are shipping in the money trees from overseas. And guess who just gave me a money tree? It's over there. Oh, yeah. That's so beautiful. You're trying to kill me.

I mean, you sent me a deadly money tree. And look at me. I'm roaming around. That money tree may have cursed you. It's like, I feel like ever since I gave it to you, your house has been going like, the repairs have gotten crazy. You've fallen down your hill. You may have West Nile now. Crash the Vespa, crash the car. I'm a wreck. I'm a mess of a human being. I can't blame a plant. I mean, it's been going on my whole life.

I've been a mess much longer than that plant's been in this house. So, let's see. In other news, everybody. So, there's news in the Brahma-ranking world. Uh-oh.

Which is Brandy, Brandy, Brandy. Brandy posted the other day. I mean, you cannot write this shit. I guess I'm doing that now. After a year of telling me how rich I was about to be and how strong my case against Bravo is, my lawyers have decided I don't have a case and cut ties with me. Hashtag paid.

Paid off, maybe allegedly shrug. You know, I don't think that's how that works. Using your lawyers of being criminals like you. Have you no loyalty to anybody? These people were actually trying to help. First, you go for the network that was actually trying to help you and gave you chance after chance, even though you didn't fucking deserve one and no one else would. And now you're going for the lawyers who tried to help you against the network to help you.

have you no loyalty get a job lady i think we all know i think we all know what crack legal team she's gotta hire next

Jack Saylor representing Brandi Grint. Jack's is like, I'm here to file divorce against Brandi. Wait a minute, I'm saying bravo! Yeah, I can't help you there. I would like to fight to have Brandi have sole custody of my son. She's like, wait! He's just giving his son to everybody. He's like, this court is in session. Bailiff, take my son.

Brandy Glanville, you know, it's so frustrating with her. It's like,

She is really the epitome of someone who can't get out of her own way. You know, she, she just flames out so frequently and she really did start to get back into Bravo's good graces. She was about to, you know, she basically, she did film three girls trips. She was on three of them. Right. And it's like, no, she was on two, two, sorry, but she was on two either way.

She was on something else also. She was on Big Brother Celebrity. She was on Traitors. She was back in the groove. The building blocks were there. She was making her way back. We don't know really what she did to Caroline Manzo. It sounds like it was really bad, but it also sounds like it was something that still could have been

Could have like just... She could have still moved forward from it. She could have apologized to Caroline first and foremost. And she could have made good with Caroline. But then she just has been a disaster on social media. And it's like, girl...

You just don't know how to set yourself up for success. Well, and then during it, when this all started, and we kind of had the same opinions the whole time, because we watched every episode of Beverly Hills, and you know who Brandy is after watching that shit. You know a person's track record. You see what they're like. She's a monster. She can be very entertaining and fun, too, but she's just a disaster in her personal life, drugs and alcohol, allegedly. And it just, it's...

Hold on. Oh, what happened? Bueller? Uh-oh. Okay, let me try to imagine the rest of Ronnie's rant. And, you know, we always knew exactly what she was, and no one should be surprised whatsoever. Sorry. A dog had the door open because it's really hot in here, and a dog poked his head in here. I didn't want Bueller to lose his shit.

A different dog? Yeah, a dealer, you're late, babe. The dog's already gone. He's like, I'm going to get that dog. The dog is gone. I need to meet this dog because it keeps stalking around my bushes, and I hear it sniffing, but I don't know if it's a coyote or a dog, but it's a very cute little dog. It was probably a coyote. No, it's a very cute, curly-headed dog. You know, I'm going to write a note that says, lease your fucking dog, and I'm going to tie it around that dog's... Well, you know what? ...dog's...

Can I say something? Give it love every day and then send it back home. Last week, I was walking on the sidewalk and I'm just like walking along and there's like two ladies and their little dogs are playing on the lawn. And then all of a sudden, one of the little dogs just comes charging at me and it just runs at my feet. And then it's like, and it's so, and I'm like, what? And the owner is like, Bailey, Bailey, stop that right now, Bailey.

But Bailey is so overwhelmed that Bailey then also, then turns out that it was not coming from my feet. Of course, I thought it was because, you know, I'm always a victim. But Bailey was going to chase a vehicle and Bailey went running right out into traffic. And it was only because Bailey had a last minute thought of like, wait, someone's mad at me that Bailey turned around and ran back. And I was like, lady, what?

Why is your dog not on a leash right now? Put your dog on a leash if you're walking around on the sidewalk. I just don't understand people who are like this. Bailey could have died. Bailey could have died because of your mismanagement. Or my ankles could have been bitten. Yeah. Well...

Someone said in the chat, I've always wondered, is Bueller deaf? I imagine someone calling Bueller, Bueller, Bueller for a deaf dog that never comes when he's called. Bueller is losing his earring because he's old. He's his earring. I lost my earring. That's another Jeff Lewis scandal. He is losing his hearing because he's old. It's not completely gone yet. I have to clap a lot. There's a lot of clapping. And it turns out that's the way to get approval from me. If you want applause from me. Yeah.

Start losing your hearing. I'll be all in for you. But yeah, I need to go find that dog and hug him. He looks so cute. And I just rejected him. And you know what? Nobody needs that. Whether or not we're working right now, nobody needs to be rejected. And I feel, I'm sorry to that dog. Dog, if you're listening to this, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, dog. Someone said it's a coyote with a perm.

Could be. We are in L.A. So let me tell you the rest of this Brandy stuff. So, well, there's not really more. But Brandy did that. And after all that, you know, she had a lot of people on her side. Like, well, you guys are standing up for a network that abuses people. And this is abuse. No, she sued them because they wouldn't release the footage from Thailand, which she thinks is going to exonerate her. She said that herself.

She's got no choice but to sue them for this reason. So, no, I don't believe Brandy. And when she says this in her tweet, after a year of telling me how rich I was about to be, that's all you need to say, Brandy. Like, we didn't already all fucking know that already. But, like, basically she did this for as rich as the lawyers told her she was going to be. Like, who says that? And who tweets that? I mean, what a dummy.

Honestly, good luck finding someone else to sue. And any business out there, worry when you see her walk through because she's going to fall down or she's going to have something go wrong that she can sue your ass.

Does this mean she's planting the seeds to come crawling back to Bravo and say, I was in a vulnerable place, I was scared, and these lawyers preyed on my insecurities, and I thought I was never going to work. They told me I'd never work again, and this is the only way I'd get any sort of financial support to support my children, and I never would have done it, and I was influenced, and I actually love Bravo. I don't know.

keep an eye out for that that's what's going to happen next yeah i wouldn't be surprised and also if anybody's wondering about the real character of brandy's it's like if we're going off this hard and someone really likes brandy they're getting really pissed right now and i get it you know i get it we don't always have to agree on everything but if you're doubting brandy's character just know this kim richards had another meltdown of some kind she had another

relapse and there's all these stories about the sisters kicking kim out again and being done with kim no one's speaking to kim kim relapse she's going through all of this and the very first person to speak out with a clickbait title that you have to like pay to read or whatever just clickbait is brandy brandy speaks out on kim's relapse so if that tells you what kind of person she is she's

literally five minutes after it happens trying to sell info on Kim, you know, gross fucking gross. So there you go. Good luck. Yeah. Good luck. By the way, do you see that there's this enormous hurricane that's barreling down on Florida right now? It's, it's approaching. It's like this. It's like going to be, it's the big one. Everyone who's out there reading, I've been reading about hurricanes all week, but I haven't been sure why.

Where they are. I mean, I know it's only Monday, but I mean for like the past week so Wow if you're there and you're at home Evacuate people evacuate. It's scary. Um, so how about this for a piece of Gossip this is where we're at right now who wants to hear some low-rent Osmond gossip

Because it's here. It has arrived. This is the hurricane right now. I think we talked about this a bit on the Salt Lake City recap. But Brittany, if... You know what? I don't think I even care. I'm onboarding this Brittany and Jared Osmond gossip. I have literally nothing to say about it. Do you have something to say about it? I think we...

I'm evacuating this. We talked about it a little on Salt Lake City, so we don't have to talk about that. Basically, he came out with a statement about Britney and how she just used him and his fame to be on the show. He's a loser. So that's that. We'll probably talk about it more if more happens before the Salt Lake City episode. Let's talk about this. Bravo, I don't know if they've actually announced it, but people have found out that Bravo is producing a WAGS show. WAGS?

athletes what's what does wag stand for i forgot wives and girlfriends wives and girlfriends of sports or something of sports um so they are releasing a wag show and it's going to be the kansas city chiefs which is very tricky because that's where travis kelsey plays and so everybody's like oh my god are we gonna get you know shots of taylor or her stalker britney mahomes

Yeah. Yeah. I'm surprised that Bravo is the one that was able to, to, to lock this, this concept down. It's also going to be significantly less appealing if Taylor and, or if Taylor and Travis break up or something, everyone's like so many rumors are swirling about them breaking up. Like there was talk about like, yeah,

There was a leak that they're public, like they're a joint statement that they were going to break up, but then that never really happened, you know, but either way. Yeah. Bravo dipping into the sports world a little bit here. So let's, let me see what's going on here. So it's no Taylor Swift, no Britain, no Brittany Mahomes, no,

It has not officially been determined who's in it, but it may include Chiefs wide receiver McCall Hardman Jr., fiancé Shariah Gordon, and Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones's longtime partner, Shewanna Weathersby. There's lots to figure out, including who would be part of the final cast and whether there's enough there to build a series around or whether we're having a show, what we're doing. But I'll tell you this.

Every picture in it has Travis Kelsey in this article. I know. They show him and literally... They show some of the other girls, but they're always standing in a picture of Travis Kelsey. So I think that's kind of how the show's going to go. And even if he breaks up with Taylor, who cares? He's so famous on his own now because of Taylor and because he's famous on his own. I mean, he's not famous to me because I don't even know what he does. But I mean, I know what he does, but I have no interest in what he does. But he's very famous on his own. But...

it's going to be interesting because even if they break up, then it's going to be, ooh, now Travis is on it looking for love. I'm excited. The Kelsey brothers are everywhere. I was at the store yesterday and I saw a cereal that said Kelsey Brothers cereal. It was like Kelsey Brothers cereal or Kelsey Brothers edition or Kelsey Brothers...

But either way, Travis and Jason Kelsey were on the cereal box just smiling, you know, because they're so cute. And I was like, wow, Kelsey Mania has really reached a new level. And then I saw a preview, not preview, a commercial for the new Ryan Murphy, the American Horror Story, grotesque career or whatever. And they're like, you know, the usual people that are in it. And then it's like, and Travis Kelsey. I was like, what? Travis Kelsey? This is getting out of control now.

Yeah. But that's what it's going to be. So I'm very excited, you know, having some cereal with Travis Kelsey's face on it. Can't wait. I don't know what a Travis Kelsey flavored cereal tastes like. But again, never forget, I brought this up and I'll bring it back up again. Never forget that when Travis Kelsey was on Watch What Happens Live, he was on with Ramona Singer together. And they have a photo together. That is what Bravo does to us. That's what it does to our heroes. Yeah. Um...

Someone, Mike, says in chat, all I see on Reddit is that Taylor and Travis are just a pair of big old drunks. Well, good for them, living their life.

Let's see. What else is new on that front, right? Someone is asking about Bobby. Yes, send the good vibes to Bobby. Whitney's daughter, Bobby, had some kind of asthma issue and is in the hospital. So, you know, obviously, wishing well for her. Love that kid. She's one of my favorite characters on that show.

And I think it's time to talk to some audience. What do you think, Banoons? Yeah, well, I was just going to say real quickly, I looked up a headline that says, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Whitney Levitt Addresses Rumor About Husband Connor's Sexuality. Do you want to know what she has to say about that? Yes, of course.

Well, she said, do I need to put out a sex tape or something? Trust me, we're good. Like, everything is fine. And then she also talks about how a sex tape worked really well for Kim Kardashian. So, yeah. Yeah, Kim Kardashian. I remember that sex tape when Kim Kardashian had to have sex in pioneer sleeves. Yeah.

It was so awkward doing a sex tape while a horse shits green poop in the background. That bonnet really made it sing, eh?

So let's go ahead and move to the audience portion. If you're listening to this on audio, bye. You're gone now. We love you. We'll talk to you next time. If you want to be a part of this part, just come join us live. And thank you so much for being with us. And we will talk to you later.
