And then if you want it, come over and listen to it over on Patreon. And I think that's it for now. Right, Ben? It feels good. Feels good. Why don't we dive into New York last week? We're alive right now.
This is a live podcast. Um, last week, last week, I started the episode with a bold proclamation that I really enjoyed last week's episode of Real Housewives of New York. And I am proud to announce that the streak continues as in the streak of boring episodes. And it resumed this week. Back to hating it. What, I mean, what are they doing to us?
And let me tell you, you know, it's still a housewife show. So I still have my base enjoyment of it. You know what I mean? Like I'm still like glad I'm not doing nothing. So that's good. Yeah.
and there are things that i enjoy no matter what i've you know at this point i've just sort of given myself over to bravo and it doesn't matter whether i enjoy it or not we're here and so i enjoy doing this no matter what's going on right so whatever like some are good some are bad this one's particularly bad but i'm still enjoying some of it you know and um so that was enough for me
It was like enough. And that's all I can say. I will say that this is one of those ones, Beverly Hills, I watch every minute of. Salt Lake City, I watch. Potomac, I watch. This one, I scroll. It's a scroll show. The real estate ones on Bravo, I scroll. Like I'll watch Million Dollar Listing, but I'm scrolling, you know? And this is a scroll show.
So parts of it, I might be a little fuzzy because, you know, girl, I was scrolling. And if anybody is scrolling currently in this day and age, you know that this world is completely fucked. So it's like going between the batshit crazy news and what they're talking about on this show. And it was a little jarring. But, you know, let's get through it.
yeah it's just sad because ronnie was a jewel in the crown and now it's a scroll show but you know what it is what it is and hopefully we will move onwards and upwards so we are still in puerto rico we're at dinner and uh rebecca has just told brin that um she's a bully basically you've been a bully ever since i met you like i am literally having diarrhea because of how much you're bullying me and brin's like
Oh, you wanna call me a bully? I don't bully people. I'm just a little girl. Little girls can't bully a sexy baby.
And she's like, you have been rude ever since the moment that we met Bram. And Rebecca really does like those that squints finally paying off. Because when we first saw the squint on Rebecca, we were like, why is she pretending she's so nice? That squint is not a nice person squint. That person is a reading squint. You know, it's a judgy squint.
And not to say that judgy people can't be nice, but that's just to say there's a strong line of judge in there. And it came out today. And I enjoyed it.
Strong line of judge. No, the moment I saw her squinty, her squinty eye, I was like, oh, I love her. I love her because there was so much judgment. Like if you can have so much judgment without even saying words, it's like an automatic win in my book. And like you said, it's like we've been like, like she's been soaking it all in.
And finally the lasers came out of the squints and she's like, oh, Brian, you're a bully.
So and the girls got mad at her because not mad but they were like a little disappointed It seemed like because they wanted her to really be a housewives like have her bitch moment tell off Brynn And they felt like she was being a little too lukewarm I thought she was perfect because she really put Brynn in her place in a way that was like You're a bad little girl, and I don't care enough about you to yell at you, and you're I'm still not gonna Yes, and I'll even apologize to you if you want me to because you're that stupid
yeah it was embarrassing like by the end of this episode i was not only scrolling on my phone but i was just like so embarrassed for red like i was mortified i was like this girl tried it and she's not only failing she's just looking childish now this girl's just making her stupid you know
But also, I was like, you know, so, you know, I'll get into this in a second. I'm going to hold my point for a moment. But the point is that Rebecca basically, like, has Brynn, and Brynn is like, you know what?
Like, Jessel is trying to have a baby girl with her husband, and I'm, like, freezing my eggs and, like, crying every night. And then, like, you know, Uma's trying to get, like, knocked up for, like, a few months, and you're, like, sitting around saying, people like me, like, aww.
Rebecca's like mmm squint they don't really have anything to do with it squint squint pew pew and Brynn's like oh yeah like one day you'll know how it's like to have children like you don't know now like when you have children like don't majorize me in motherhood
Oh, God, Brian, shut up. OK, let me make this very easy for you. There's things you don't understand about being a giraffe because you're not a giraffe. So you don't know what it's like when someone's like, oh, my God, these the leaves at the top of the tree are the hardest to eat. You don't understand it because you're not eating the leaves at the top of the trees. You are not a giraffe, okay?
I'm sorry. You can't just have somebody feel for you and pretend. You don't get to pretend to be a giraffe and get everybody to pretend along with you. It's not how it works, okay? You are not a mother and you don't fucking understand, period. Go cry somewhere else, you fucking baby. You don't understand what it's like to be a mother, but you do understand what it's like to be a child.
That's for sure.
Mm-hmm. Then let me tell you something. This is coming from two queens here who cannot stand when people are like talking about like, well, as a mother, as a mother, it's like our least favorite thing. And we don't like it when people say like, I don't like it when people are like, are you going to have a baby? You're going to have a baby. I'm like, I'm not going to have a baby.
I'm not going to have a baby. Okay. So I get all that.
Guys can see that now.
Would I still say that Rebecca Minkoff has children crawling all over her bed and she just wants some peace and quiet. And I can concede that I can concede that.
Yeah, we have to, you know, look, I don't want, I don't want kids and I don't love people using the, well, I'm a mother now, so I get everything that you don't understand. Like, I don't even like kids getting to go onto the plane before me. I'm like, is that a handicap now, being a child? No, get in the fucking line like everybody else.
I had to buy the early bird to get my seating group A, and now you get to, did you serve in the military? You're a fucking one, okay? You're one year old. Do you have a purple heart? Get in the fucking back of the line. Your mother didn't earn, your mother earned you, guess what your mother earned you? A spot in the C line in Southwest, okay? You don't get to be an A just because you're a child.
I don't even, fuck that. But even I'm like, well, shit. Yeah, it's harder for her. I look at the actual mom and I'm like, OK, yeah, I don't get what it's I don't get what that's like. And that's way harder for her. So I mean, I can sit here with my little game boy and cry in my A15.
Now, I do think there are parents that use the parent card to get shit. Be like, I just have kids. You don't understand. And I'm like, you're using the parent card. I don't like that. But I just think in this case, I'm allowing the parent card because Brynn has been obnoxious. And she was obnoxious about this whole room thing. And she forced Rebecca to room, just assigned her a roommate situation.
And then she's like, why are you annoyed? And Rebecca's finally like, because I'm a kid. parent and i wanted to have some sleep because i've got four kids crawling on me and i guess what i just had to design a handbag that looks like elfaba's crotch for this damn tv show so i'm tired i am tired
And also, Brynn's just starting this fight because she just wants to have a feud with somebody. It's just, like, not organic. It's just annoying. And now she got her big thing where she gets to... It's like, I'm really going to get everybody on my side in the audience by really bringing motherhood into it. Just... You're just bad at this, okay?
It's the 20th time I've said this in the past two weeks, but you're just sucking at it. And it's funny to watch. So then she's like, don't patronize me about motherhood. And Rebecca's like, the amount of attacking she's done to me, I mean, it is like I have just been accused of terrorism by Oz himself. Okay, my purse is right now. Purse is right now.
One short day at Oz, one long day at Bloomingdale's. Get the Rebecca Minkoff Wicked Collection now. Limited time only.
That girl really needs to take a hike up the yellow bitch road. Am I right? Stupid.
I will tell you, this show does remind me of Wicked, mainly the part where the poppies opened up and everyone fell asleep. So Rebecca is like, you took that, like, way too seriously.
And Brynn's like, I don't take it too seriously. Like, what you said was serious. This is what happens when you say things are serious. There's a serious reaction.
I'm a baby.
And Rebecca does a good job here. She just looks at her and she squints and she goes, great. I love that. great so raquel's like i'm excited to see this side of rebecca maybe she just needed a little vacay and brand's like well contrary what am i sound like i actually don't want to fight with you well now you don't because you look stupid because you just lost you just lost this fight so too late
And Brynn's saying this because the expected response is Rebecca saying, and I don't want to fight with you two. I actually really like you. But instead, Rebecca goes, well, then you can stop.
Well, I'm not coming for you.
It feels like it.
Well, moving on.
Okay, well, you don't get to say moving on. You're the person who ran the car into the innocent victim. You're not the one who gets to decide to move on. That's a hit and run. The victim gets up and walks away and says, okay, it's time to move on now.
The house in Newport Beach that has a dent in it gets to say time to move on.
But you know what? Also, don't. John's daughter almost got to say it's time to move on.
Yeah, I have two separate rants that I would like to intertwine if I can, possibly. Number one, act one. Act one. Act one is Bryn, you can't be coaching Rebecca on camera saying, come on, you got to give it back a little bit. Spice it up. You can't be talking about all this time. Oh, you're doing the prank. You're going to lean into it because you want to spice it up.
You want to lean into the housewife stuff. You're all about this. And yet now we finally have a fight that like, I personally am invested in and I think is a good one and could be entertaining. And then you just are going to be like, okay, well we should just move on. No, we sat through a boring season. Let us have a full, a full fleshed out fight.
You don't get to do that defying gravity and close act one, act two. Okay. Raquel, Raquel, I'm going to come for you a little bit here too. Okay. I, I mean, this is the last time we have to do this disclaimer. No, not Raquel. What'd Raquel do? This is a minor one. This really should have been Act 1. But, like, Raquel, here's the thing. This should have been the overture. This is the Act 2 lull.
Like, before it gets good again. This is the M&M's. This is the getting M&M's in Act 2. Intermission. But honestly, okay, I'm not going to keep doing this disclaimer about like, I think Raquel seems like a cool person. She's awesome. Like I like her personality. Please know going forward, any criticism of Raquel has that couch in it. I'm just sort of sick of doing that disclaimer.
I don't even know why I feel like I have to do it anymore. But that being said, Raquel's kind of a dud as a housewife, if you ask me. She's nice. She has shared some very emotional moments that I have enjoyed. But, like, for her to come on here and be like, oh, I'm excited to see this side of Rebecca. Maybe she just needed a little vacay. They're all like, finally, Rebecca.
You're not being boring. I'm like, have you guys held a mirror up to your faces and seen what's happened on this season? Rebecca, to me, has been one of the most interesting parts of this season. And you guys are all sitting here doing pranks and being boring as fuck. So stop coming down on Rebecca.
When you guys are the ones who need to be doing the heavy lifting because you guys are the full-fledged housewives.
well yeah rebecca i mean i disagree that rebecca's bringing a lot either i mean i love her squint and everything but and i think it's fun to talk about her but i don't know that any new person has added a ton uh i agree about raquel like i really like her but here's the difference uh i think in what you're saying is that here's where i would disagree is i think that raquel has tried like she's tried getting in the mix she's like listen i don't like that aaron took all this information and twisted it and tried to make brent look bad and i'm making a stand
she did try to get on on that but it was such a stupid fight that it ended really fast because it was very confusing and then there was one other thing that she was willing to fight about and she tried it and it was just another stupid i was just so bad it's like you're coming into a cast where people don't really understand how to do it you know what i mean it's like being the supporting cast of a bunch of non-lead characters no one knows what they're doing on this show so she's trying but she doesn't have really anything to grab on to so i'm not going to blame her on that now the other ones
I just, they're coming down on Rebecca. They're coming down on Rebecca for not being interesting. But like, what are you guys doing? I mean, I think some of them are trying. I think actually Psy, I cannot believe that Psy is on the upper echelon of this cast now. Because I do think that she is trying to make an effort. Erin drives me nuts. She is making an effort though.
Psy is making an effort to be nice. And it's working, but it's like... Well, she needs to have a balance of both, right?
But she's direct. She's direct. It's so weird to me. People say online that one of the problems with this show is that the cast is not very authentic. And I think that, unfortunately, they are authentic. And I'm like, I don't know why it's just not really working.
And I actually think- Because they're authentically boring. I mean, we've seen, we know tons of people like that. I know people say that about LA people all the time, that LA people are really fake. And I bet a lot of them, and they are, but then you know them for a while. When you do know a lot of that type for a while, it's like, oh, they are fake, but that's who they are.
That's why they're here. They're attracted to being here. They're like moths that just like beat up against the light. They're just stupid. And they're they just want they're all exactly the same. And that's all they want to be. And that's all they care about being. And they just care about getting into the light. It's like they're idiots, but they're not fake. That's just who they are.
You know what I mean? So they're, you know, they're just not, they're authentically not interesting.
It's just the cast does not have a chemistry. And on top of that, production does not have a good vision for the show and they are not creating a good narrative for us to follow.
Okay. Well, we're, you know, that's, that's a huge treatise to write. when we still got an hour left. So let's keep, let's keep on. Let's keep on.
So also, but I know that when people are, and I didn't mean you, I meant us, but I know that when people are really into a show and you come to Krappens, you want it to all be fun and us kind of like loving, even if we're hating it, like loving, and we do, we still have fun doing it, but I'm sorry, I'm not gonna fake it. This show's stupid. So if you don't like listening to it, I don't blame you.
Just skip to a different episode because I'm not giving you what you want.
yeah if you want to hear us about this show for an hour literally stay here because that's what we're going to do and if you don't i totally understand but don't expect anything different because i'm not giving it to you okay i mean we still try to have fun with it we still try to find the comedy and things and like you know we still poke fun but it's just it's so hard like you just want in terms it's hard to watch
bravo put this shit up on the air and it's just like just just make it better just find tweet do something do something anyway it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial

So then they try. And Sai's like, well, let me tell you something.
Earlier on the plane, people were wondering, will Bitcoin reach its $1 million milestone in 2025?
I was like, oh, God damn it. Did Sai talk about reading headlines? I'm sorry. I'm scrolling. I'm scrolling through the news and trying to watch his show at the same time.
Should we do headlines? Well, the great headlines into our rony recap to make it more spicy.
Yeah. So I had to rewind it. But apparently Jenna was telling Cy that she has to get waxed because the hair on her vagina is straight like a wet cat. So now we get to talk about Jenna's pubic hair being wacky.
And Jenna's like, I can't believe that she's talking. This is so what? Oh, they're talking about me. I can't. Crazy.
She says, she says, I mean, for whatever reason, my hair, it's down there. It's just like straight. It's like, it's like Jessel's hair. And Jessel's like, so basically I have Jenna Lyons' pubes on my head.
That's outrageous, everyone. So they do that for a while.
And then Bryn goes, ladies and gentlemen, Jenna Lyons.
And Jenna's like, wow, I just can't believe I'm talking about this on national television.
Guys, we are such a funny group. I think we've proven to America that we earned our spot.
We are like so funny. This was definitely a Ramona pooping in a closet in Mexico moment.
So they go back to the house, and it's cold. They're so cold. I'm cold. No, I'm cold. No, I am cold like a basic bitch. So they're cold, and they're going to all get into bed, and then they're just talking about how cold it is because it's cold.
The air conditioning is on. So Psy goes to Uba's room to hang out, but Uba has put a nightstand in front of the door. He's like, what are you doing?
there's no lock in this room so that's what i do i do the same thing when i check into a hotel not only i put the lock but if i'm sleeping alone i move the fridge and i put it there doesn't feel like that's up to code but that's mine good luck to you so she's the first person to see the hotel too when there's a fire and she can't get out in time you didn't make refrigerators move easier from the inside terrible
Uber's like, oh, dude, I am not feeling good because of that fucking cheese.
Oh, God, cheese. Okay, let me see. Do you have a fever? Let me see. Oh, God. Oh, man. You know, I slept like a queen last night. A queen from the 1960s, 1600s in a small bed.
And Uber's like, oh, can I have my room back?
No, that listing is no longer available.
By the way, the Republicans are trying to push for Cheney criminal investigation. What? Sorry, Ronnie was scrolling.
Did you know that a rift in Trump world over how to make America healthier is going to be an issue?
What? Sorry, scrolling. So then Raquel is on the phone calling her mom to make sure she's going to come. And the mom says she's going to come, but Raquel's like, I don't know if she's going to come. And so Cy comes in and, you know, they're talking about coffee and getting coffee and stuff like that. Everybody starts gathering in the kitchen basically.
And, um, then size like, Oh my God, I use one of these machines. Why is this coffee? This is ridiculous. Fucking stupid in New York. You know, we got people who make your coffee. I'm like, what the hell is this?
It's Keurig.
Oh, God. I know. She's like, guys, guys, guys, hold on. I'm going to do a bit about Keurig. This will be really good on TV. What? How do I use this?
So Raquel's like, I don't even know how to use it.
yeah so she's like what will you drink coffee no you drink tea right she's like i don't drink coffee i drink tea yeah yeah i was like this show seriously give it 10 more seasons okay so then um they start talking about their moms because raquel's nervous because she hasn't seen her mom and so it's like i'm so confused why haven't you seen your mom in 10 years
And she's like, well, you know, she didn't want me coming out here after COVID. And then I had stuff going on and now she doesn't want to come to New York. And so she's telling us that her mom was making excuses. Like first she was saying it's because she has dogs and she can't find a dog sitter and she won't bring her dog. And then she has anxiety and then this and that.
And Raquel's convinced that if she's still married to a man, this wouldn't be happening.
Yeah, she says there's different levels of homophobia. Like, oh, I love gay people. They're everywhere. But when it's your daughter, it's like a little different. So she hasn't met... Her mom hasn't met Mel in years. They met years ago. And she hasn't seen the kids. And, you know, it's basically because of this, you know, Raquel's kids don't really have a grandmother, you know.
And she says, one of the most hurtful parts is that my children have been robbed of a grandmother. And they feel it. They feel the absence. And... It's very difficult. And then Sai tells us that she will never not speak to her children. She would never allow it.
And, you know, but like there's a lot of like old school Latinas who have a hard time admitting their faults and they sweep things under the rug.
And Sai's like, you know, that's just like being a New Yorkian. You know, what are you going to do? I mean, what are you going to get your mom to admit that New York radiation levels are spiking because drones have been spotted in the area? What? Sorry. Goddamn it, Ronnie. Stop scrolling. This is a very important, meaningful scene.
I was like, I'm so sorry, but this is more mother trauma. This is what the show did not need was another traumatic mother story. We've got literally 10 traumatic mother storylines. Get something new, okay? I need a new factory line of trauma. If you're going to bring me trauma, at least give me fresh fucking trauma.
Yeah. So then she's like, well, I was speaking on the phone to my mother and she was explaining she's got these heart palpitations that she's been getting and she thought she was having a heart attack. And I asked her before and she was like, I said, is it anxiety? And she goes, I don't know. And, you know, normally she said, no, it's not. But this time she said, I don't know.
And I just feel like it's scary. And like, children, we're just more open in our generation. And, you know, I understand why she has heart palpitations because, you know, the killing of the Russian general sends a message, but it doesn't change the war. Sorry, scrolling. Scrolling, Ronnie. Scrolling.
So then Sai is talking about how, you know, it was really rough with her mom being a drug addict. And, you know, her husband was like, why do you keep having her back in her life? And you're like, well, it's my mom. You know, and even though your mom morphs into somebody different, it's still your mom.
And she's like, you know, and now like I feel a void coming to Puerto Rico because she still resents that her mom gave up on life for drugs. And she gave up on her for drugs, which I think is fair and normal and fair. And so, you know, basically they're like, let's break the cycle.
I'm like you guys should break the cycle you guys should break the cycle of talking about this on every single episode because literally I can't I can't it's very sad for Psy I appreciate her emotional honesty but just listening to you I'm like it's not oh it's just enough because here's the thing and I think it's kind of a generational thing because and it's not not really because Raquel is of art of a generation above ours
But I think, oh yeah, maybe she is. Yeah, she is. And I think, but anyway, the point is it's a modern thing to just like define yourself by whatever your trauma is and to have to trauma. It's like you give each other awards based on your trauma. Congratulations. We all fucking have it.
I think, you know, and I say this a lot on this show, especially recapping New York, but can we just start defining ourselves on our triumphs and what we got over and not what we're,
traumatized by constantly i just it's so boring the leaves you ate at the top of the tree you did it get your leaves girl get your leaves and that's not to discount their trauma or say it's not important i get that it's important but nobody wants to sit here and listen to mine i can sit here for an hour and a half and give it nobody would listen to that shit entertain me i'm coming to you to get away from my trauma okay not to get in the hot tub full years
Again, this speaks to the poor direction of this show. I think they're giving us these scenes to give texture to these women and subtext and texture and make us understand and see them as three-dimensional people. I get all that. But also, it's just like...
I feel like the big mistake with this reboot is that Bravo is trying to make these people our best friends and make us want to bond with them and want to hang out with them and want to aspire to be them. And that is just not what the real Housewives is all about. And in fact,
The goofier and sillier and campier these women are, that's usually when we actually feel bonded to them and want to hang out with them. We all want to hang out with, like, Luann and Sonya. Well, maybe not Sonya. Maybe too much of a mess. Dorinda. Like, heck, if someone said they want to hang out with Kyle Richards, I would get it.
But, like, we want to hang out with them because we've been in the trenches with them in the silliness of the show, not because we can sit there and bond over the sadness in our lives.
Right. So basically now everybody starts gathering and talking about pooping and coffee. And then so Jenna comes in and she tells Rebecca, wait, I have a very real question for you. And Rebecca's like, I have a very real answer for you. So you can suck my dick, Bren. She goes, okay, you need to drop that now. Okay. But here's what my question actually is. Are you going to get into it with Bren?
Cause like, I'm just waiting for it. Cause like she's coming at you and it's exciting. I'm really starting to be on this, enjoy being on this show. I love that Jenna's like enjoying the mess now.
She's like, go on fighter, do it. It's going to be so fun.
And Rebecca's like, but last night, did you not think that we had it out? Did you not see how much I was squinting? It was just like a machine gun of squints. Like I was like Rambo. I was like squint Rambo. Was that not enough for you? She's like, no. She's like, really? Squimbo. That was a squimbo.
And Rebecca's like, she's like, I mean, it's like, Jenna says, no, I just, it just doesn't seem like you were having it out. She goes, oh, well, it's just, it's how you deal with a child when they're having a tantrum. Just squint at them. It works every single time.
Yeah, exactly. And she goes, yeah, it's how you deal with a child having a tantrum. So she was like, everyone thinks I'm bending it over and taking it up the ass. And they do. And it cuts to all the other ladies. Jessel's like, I want her to be Rebecca Minkoff, the big boss bitch. But instead it's giving elementary school like, you're the bully. No, you're the bully. No, you're the bully.
I'm the one with vagina hair.
And Rebecca's like, I mean, I think you can't throw stones if you like. And Jenna goes, if you live in a glass house. Oh my God, thank you. I didn't know where I was going with that sentence. Jessel's like,
well i think she has a lot to get through i mean if she's gonna do this baby with gideon i mean and rebecca's like really it's like yeah and then jenna's like yeah i know i just i didn't realize they were doing it together i mean but it's awesome it's cool that they're gonna try to do that yeah and uh they're all talking about wow gideon's so great and oh it's not hypocritical at all that brent
It's bad that everybody calls her a sugar baby, but then the only person she can think of getting sperm from is someone she claims is a billionaire. And then Rebecca's like, oh, now I can understand why Brynn's upset with me because she wants the baby.
And as someone who didn't get pregnant right away, I fully empathize with that journey, you know, but just don't poke because you'll be leaking out of enough holes soon enough.
And I say this as someone who made quite a mess in her virginity bed, which I still have. Literally just squirted. Squirted all over that virginity bed. Rebecca's like, I think in just in a situation where it's just like her and I, we can like sort of come to like, oh, let's all get along and let's just like be nice.
And I can just remind her that I have succeeded in every way that she has failed in life. And I think that'll be okay.
So then Rebecca's like, but why do people play these games? That's my question. And Jessa's like, yeah, I have better things to do with my time, right? Like, I have an empire to run, right? And Rebecca just flicks her hair like, I sure do. So then Sai and Uba are talking about, they're just taking pictures of each other, you know, which is... what they do on this show.
And then Marian, the mom and the boyfriend Santiago are arriving and they come in and they hug and hug. And Raquel's like, it's been a while since I hugged my mom. It just feels so good. I hope this homophobic love hug lasts forever. And it's cute. And the mom's sweet. The mom does give a little sigh to me personally, which is cute because I'm liking sigh this season.
So she's there and she's like, wow, great.
Mom seems fine, but we know it's not. We know it's like she's on camera, she's on best behavior, but the mom seems fine to us. I'm not going to discount Raquel on this one, though, but it's just funny.
The mom's going to rip off her sweater later when she gets mad, and there's going to be a don't tread on me shirt underneath.
One of the classic tropes on Bravo is that someone will just talk for episodes about how awful their mom is, and then their mom comes onto TV, and they're like, hi, honey, how's it going?
it's like erica from beverly hills we were talking about this earlier she's like my mother that abusive she ruined my life as a child by not appreciating me in the school plane now look at me and then her mom comes in she's like hi honey i love you so much i support whatever you do god damn it
um so she introduces her mom to everyone and um hugging and Brynn empathizes because she hasn't spoken to her biological mom in 15 years so she you know she she imagines how special this is they talk about bacalao which I've never had but now I actually really want to try it because it sounded delicious all I heard was like salt fish and I love a salty fish so Yeah, no, I give me some bacalao.
Find me some bacalao, people. And then Rebecca is, I think Rebecca was like.
That's what I say. So they're talking about that. And then Brynn comes in and she's like, good morning, my little vampire. And kisses Jenna on the lips. And the mom is like, whoa. And then Uber's like, wow, did she kiss her on the lips? So I was like, that's bizarre. That's fucking weird. So then Uber's like, did you kiss Brynn on the lips? She said you're kissing on the lips.
And Jenna's like, yeah, she always kisses me on the lips. I mean, listen, she doesn't have a man. And then Jenna tries to kiss Sy. And then she kisses Uber on the lips. And then Aaron on the lips. And the mom's just like, uh.
And the son goes, yeah, because mom's like, wait, my daughter's not only a lesbian, now she's traveling with a lesbian to watch a group. Great.
And, of course, Jenna leaves out Jessel. She's like, where's my smoochy smooch on the lips? Like, what the heck? I literally look like a vagina. Wouldn't you want to put a mouth in me? And then the producer's like, by the way, Jessel, have you ever dipped your toe in the lady pond? She's like, no, I never did that. So maybe I'll do that when I'm 56 and bored of Parvitt.
I think Parvitt's done that. Hold on, let me call Parvitt. Parvitt, have you dipped your toe in a lady pond? oh oh all right no he's dipped his bond me into ranch dressing before and really like that you can check it out on his latest instagram post what we'll be talking about
And then a genuine funny moment happens and Jessel's like, so when was the last time you guys saw each other? And Raquel's like, about six years ago. And Marianne's like, yeah, it was a few months after Maria. So she came down to help me out. And Jessel's like, and Maria is your daughter. Hurricane Maria. More of this, please.
More of this. So your daughter is what badly behaved? No, it was an actual devastating hurricane. Oh.
Oh, I'm not familiar. Why was she named Maria?
They name hurricanes. Do they? Wow. Wish I could name a hurricane. Have they met my children? I'd name it Katie, and then I'd ask it every day. Hurricane, does Tom Cruise miss you? I would know if we went to the proper preschool.
That's not how hurricanes work, Jessel. Are you sure? Are we talking about lanterns? No, actual hurricanes. So she's like, what? I mean, in all fairness, that hurricane happened when? Like 2019, 2018? I thought Maria was his sister or something. I don't fucking know.
They're like, read the newspaper, Jessel. Jesus.
Yeah, read the newspaper. I guess they don't get those in space. Yeah.
Which is pretty funny. And so then Aaron's like, hey guys, wait for Carrothead. Okay, here comes Carrothead. She's like, Jessel lives in Jesselton, which is kind of like Bridgerton, where you're always getting ready for a ball. So like, she doesn't know what's going on, right? Because like, have you seen the show Bridgerton? Because it's like that. But it's like Jessel. So it's like Jesselton.
So...
What's the deal with Bridgerton anyway? I mean, there's no bridges and nothing weighs a ton. Might as well call it land a few pounds. Sidewalk life. Sidewalk. Hey. Have you ever seen a show called Sidewalk Light? I have. It's actually what Bridgerton's really called. Sidewalk Pound. Hey, I guess it's British, though, so it would be Sidewalk Graham. Street Level Lounge.
So then they talk about the hurricane. We're like cracking up. Okay, let's go back to Hurricane Maria. Back to Hurricane Maria, guys. So they talk about how devastating it was, how there was no electricity, no water, the federal government fucked them over.
Yeah, it was terrible. There was not, there's just like, there's no, the streetlights were out for like a year. They didn't like, water would come in, water would come out. You know, Jess was like, I'm sorry, are we still talking about your boring cousin Maria? But Maria should pay her electricity then. I'm just saying. It's not that difficult. Just like stop at the stop signs and drive forward.
Why do you need electricity, Maria?
So then they get changed because they're going to go out, right? So they're going to go to Old San Juan. And the mom's like, I'm not going in the hot weather. What are you kidding me? And Raquel's like, well, can we just pull out your iPad? Cause I want to try and set it up quickly so the kids can FaceTime you. And she's like, oh my God. So my kids want to meet that or want to see her.
And she's like, no. And I'm like, but they've missed out on so many memories and she can't even set up her iPad. Like, come on. And she's like, mom, did you charge it? She's like, I did. She goes, it's not charged.
She's like, come on. I didn't even use it.
It's because it's fresh out of the box. But that's also taking things really personally that aren't personal. Like, mom, you haven't seen my kids and you can't even charge their iPad.
It's like, who charges an iPad? Why do I have to charge it? It's like a tiny little stupid square thing. Give me a regular notebook. What happened to paper and pens? All right.
Where are they on that? Straw your kid. I'll talk to it.
Grandma loves you. Grandma loves you.
Done. Is that for Maria? Listen, don't take it personally, Raquel. Once you get to a certain age, you do not understand how to use Apple products. That's just how it is.
I'm starting to think that older people, my parents included, just they understand it. They just don't want to. Like my mom will send me a text that says, call me.
So, you know, Apple TV, if they call me, it's like, I have a quick question. Apple TV is not working. She'll never call me, though.
I have to call her. It's like it's hard for her to do. It's like, I can never find your, you know, the proper number. I don't know where to. It's like, just what? And then you call. Yes. And it's the Apple TV, which is kind of confusing even to me sometimes. It's like, why is the screen black for 10 minutes at a time on every one that I own? So just updating. It just doesn't tell you.
Anyway, but yeah, I think there's just some point where it's like, you're my child. And if I want you to update my iPad, you're going to do it. And that's it.

So, Uba goes to hang out with Sai, and Uba was saying that she was afraid that there was going to be a lot of tears. And Sai was saying, like, no, no, no. She's like my mom. You know, like, they just ignore everything. Some mothers are just very tough. And she's like, mine, if she did something wrong, she'd just pick up exactly where she left off. Like, we don't even talk about it.
You know, I think she just has the same sort of mom as me. Puerto Ricans, especially back in the day, they just were...
just saying that she's saying that they're just we're not very emotional just would soldier on all right so then um basically the raquel and her mom are looking through pictures on the phone and you know talking about the heart palpitations and raquel's like maybe it's time to come to new york mom and she's like what get on a plane what if i have a nervous problem a heart problem i got to get on a plane like i have a fear of flying you know that
She's like, but you'll be fine, you know? And she's like, I hope we can take a step forward. So then, you know, the mom's not going to San Juan. Old San Juan. So they go without her. And then we go to shopping. Old San Juan.
Yeah. And now we're in old San Juan. And Uba has chosen to wear a kitten heel with a spike, which is scandalizing people, especially Jessel, because Jessel's like, how do you even walk like that? And Brynn is... Rebecca goes up. Rebecca tells Brynn, like, hey, by the way, at some point, I'd like to talk to you. I will not even squint. It'll be full-eyed. And I hope you will accept this.
And Brynn's like, yeah, that'll be really cool.
yeah um so then um Bryn's like uh sorry it was literally Bryn's like insurers are deserting homeowners as climate shocks worsen literally in the recap I was like CDC confirms first case of severe bird flu I was like oh no and I was like you're doing a recap Ronnie I have the headlines open just to read during this recap and I actually started reading them
bird flu come on that's not fair we're still we just got through a pandemic you know what but that's why i didn't even believe the pandemic at first because it's always like bird flow every year it's like oh my god it's coming again here it comes and i'm like bird flu never gets me you know what i mean they've been threatening me with bird flu for 20 years now stop it it's every year you've got to come up with something new to scare me so then they did and they were like maybe it's like the bird flu i was like i'm not scared and then look what happened you know
Which was terrible. So anyway, Maria, right? God, Hurricane Maria. Those were the days. So then Uba and Sy are shopping together and it's wacky. Literally nothing happens for a while. Can we just scroll till something happens? Because this was terrible.
Let's scroll because it's like basically the group splits up into content creators who just like to take photos of themselves and non-content creators. And then it just goes and goes and goes.
Let's go to the big pic portion. Okay.
i would love that so then um uh bren so they're shopping and bren is with jenna uh wait who is she with no she's just talking and they're in a store with cocktails and aaron says oh my kids are facetiming me it's like oh my god let's answer so aaron's daughter layla is on the phone and she's crying and she's like
Mommy, I just got a cut.
And Aaron's like, oh, I'm sorry. Do you want to go home?
She's like, yeah, but can I take an Uber?
They're cracking up. She's like, sure, honey, take an Uber Black. I mean, Jesus. Like, this is New York City. Take a train, you know? You can cry all you want. No one will look your way, you know? So then they're shopping around, and she goes, I want to buy my husband something. He's a large. And Brynn goes, oh, my God, your husband's large? Okay. Yeah.
Yeah.
And Jenna's like, I don't think there's anything large about Abe, but that's okay. Sorry. And Aaron goes, what? And she goes, yeah, she said Abe's the large. And then I'm like, I don't think there's anything large about this show.
Come on, show. Jenna was like trying to talk shit or whatever. I don't know what it was, but like it was awkward. And then she immediately is like taking it back because she's like giggling. And Aaron's like, oh, yeah. Do you want to see his dick? And so then she pulls out a picture of Abe's dick. And they're like, oh, wow. They're like, okay. And Brynn's like,
For the record, I did not solicit this. I did not, which I will give Brynn credit for that. So they're looking at it and they're like, oh, this is great.
And Brynn's like, oh my God, I love Puerto Rico.
Yeah.
And Brynn's like, I love everything. The people, the drinks. I love what it makes people do.
And so Aaron's like, oh. She's triple baby. She's triple baby. Baby seal. Baby seal. So then she whips out the dick pic and Aaron's like, so do you think this is small? And Jenna's like, whoa, whoa, I take it back. Wow, wow, Abe, wow.
And Brent's like, oh my God, this thing is so pretty.
So they sit there talking about his wiener for a while. And Aaron's like, that's why I have a lot of sex.
and now they talk about the penis for a while uh now are you offended by this penis what do you think offended well i think it's like a little weird just to like show like a private like dick pic or whatever the the analog would be for for like a woman i guess like i think a nude pic in general of like
the person you're with just to show it to other people on tv too i don't know i mean but that could just be their relationship i mean if if they're cool with it then i don't care but like i don't think i would yeah i think it just depends on the reaction of the person you know what i mean like if if he's upset by it then i guess he would have something to stand by he would have a leg to stand on for a third leg to stand on apparently
But yeah, he would have an issue. Then I guess it would be an issue. I don't really care. I mean, the internet's pretty outraged about it. I don't care. I'm like, wow, at least people are getting worked up over something on this show. That's good. But like, I don't care. And I have a feeling that they probably swing or do something where they're or at the very least share dick pic.
Like she probably shares dick pics with her friends all the time. You know what I mean? Like some people are just like that. I don't know. Maybe we get it more because we're gay and it's not that big of a deal.
I just am like, I wouldn't do it, but if their relationship, if that's like within the parameters of their relationship, then I don't really care. So now they all go to lunch and they're all sitting around and they're all talking and Jenna is like, she's like, ooh, Uber, can I touch your boobs? And she's like, no, squeeze them. Don't do it like a basic bitch. They're the best.
My ass feels the same and I don't even work out. This is a non-basic bitch ass.
so they talk about they touch each other's boobs and stuff like that because that's literally all we have on this show and then they start ordering some drinks and talking about what they bought shopping and bring us oh i got a dick pic i didn't even have to pay i mean this girl like she's just so obnoxious like can you just make it two seconds without like spoiling the plot
Like, why does this have to be your plot? Like, you can't just hang out with your friends without throwing them under the bus within five seconds. It's like the first thing you do is throw your friend under the bus. It's just tiresome, man. It's like just an annoying fucking person. Like, who is even friends with this person? She's just annoying.
So Rebecca's just talking about how she got this pic that Aaron showed it. And Rebecca's like, what, you got something Aaron dropped to you?
And she goes like, no, Aaron dropped to my face. We were picking out clothes for Abe, and the retail associate was like, oh, is this it? And I was like, oh, Abe doesn't need a large, and there's nothing large about him.
And everyone was like, well, I gotta pick
So they talk about the dick and they're saying it was a great dick, great dick pic, et cetera.
And Si's like, he showed your man's dick to them.
She's like, I don't got dick pics of David. I was trying to get meat mail, but he won't send it to me. And Jessel's like, if the tables were turned and Abe was going around showing pictures of Aaron's giant clit, I don't know, there would be a lot more sleepy people falling asleep to Aaron's clit because you know it's boring. Yeah.
And Rebecca's like, it leads me to imagine like, was it hard? Was it soft? And Raquel's like, I don't want to see Abe's dick. Even when I was straight, I wouldn't want to see someone else's dick. By the way, this is the other sign that when a show doesn't have any content, they ask like everyone to weigh in on some stupid shit like this. So it's like a carousel of people talking about Abe's dick.
So then Uba says, Uba's like, no, not into this or whatever.
And then everyone's like- Yeah, this group is not like Jessel and Brynn. Because Jessel and Brynn were like, oh my God, this is amazing. And this group's like, gross. Why would you do that? And also it's funny because this is the group that's constantly taking each other's pictures and trying to get attention.
So you would think that they would be the group that's like, oh my God, a dick pic, awesome. But they're like, no, gross, tasteless, classless.
They're like any JPEG. So it was like, actually, I have to say, I don't want it. I don't want to see it. Whatever. I wouldn't want it. And Raquel's like, she's like, oh, that's weird. Like, I don't want to see his dick. And it was like, I absolutely don't want it. I respect Abe too much. And she just basically winds up saying, and Aaron's like, well, am I being disrespectful by showing it?
now I'm going to feel bad about this. And she was like, I would be dumb if I show out of his dick, literally like I would never do that. You know, I, for me personally. So I think Uber's just saying where she stands on it. And then Aaron of course is like, Oh, It's very hard for me to decipher what's going to trigger Uba's intense reaction.
And I don't know why my personal situation with my husband and what I've shown has made her so upset. She's not so upset. She's just saying, no, I wouldn't do that. If I did that with Oliver, that would be stupid because she's basically saying Oliver wouldn't like it. She's not like, oh my God.
But this is such an errant thing to do is to paint Uba like she's having this big, intense, triggered reaction when Uba's just saying what everyone else is saying. Like, no, this would not be for me.
well yeah and also of course it was inappropriate to share your husband's dick you weirdo like sorry don't make that someone else's fault it was your weird you know it was your weird choice so she's like now i'm questioning myself like should i not have shown my girlfriends my girlfriends a picture of a dick pic like i'm a girl's girl we do this um so brent's like i mean it was tasteful
And Jenna's like, it was fantastic. Really. It was so good. I mean, artistically, the mushroom. It was good. And Aaron's like, well, Cy doesn't believe it. And Cy's like, I don't give a fuck what size it is. I don't care if it's small or big. That's your thing. That's your baby. Like, you know what I mean? And Aaron goes, that's a dick. It's not my baby. She goes, that's your man.
That's what I'm saying. It's none of my business.
I don't want to see it. Does anybody want to see me sniff shit off a shoe or stab myself with a bottle?
Because I'll do it. Si then looks at Jessel's feet and she's like, oh my God, look at Jessel's feet.
Hey, have you ever seen that Kim Kardashian in those plastic shoes when they were like swollen and you know, like, huh? Well look at Jessel's feet. Cause she also has plastic shoes and her feet are swollen. So her feet have to, she can't even wear her shoes anymore. Oh my God.
So she takes a picture of her ugly feet under the table and then starts showing people the side by side of their pictures.
And so I was like, oh my gosh, should I put a toast in the group chat? I'm gonna.
And Rebecca was like, oh, wonderful. And so Aaron's like, oh my God, she sent that to the whole group. And everyone's like, check your phones, you guys. Oh my God, who wore best, Kim K or Jessel? And Jessel's like, that is so fucked up. I was walking around. What do you want? I had sweaty feet.
this show is running on fumes seriously and then she's upset because they're like judging her feet and it's not fair and then everyone's like oh my god her feet are so ugly and then brin's like well that's kind of hypocritical is it brin who was like it's hypocritical like these are the girls who are so offended oh no that's later in the car we'll get to it soon
So they ask Raquel some more questions about her mom. I don't care. I'm not talking about this anymore. Like, I'm not doing it. I don't care if she does. I'm not doing it. Then they talk about Jessel wanting kids again and blah, blah, blah. So then they decide to go home. Then they talk about the mom again and how wonderful. I can't with this fucking show. Okay, so we go back to the van.
And Brynn is like, oh my God, Erin, I love how they tried throwing you under the bus, sharing a consensually given photo of your husband. Yeah, consensual is giving her the photo. It's not showing it, but still, it's another business.
And look at Brynn trying to agitate people again.
yeah of course which she started this whole thing you know she started it as usual and now she's trying to keep it going so aaron's like yeah it made me like it made me it made them mad that he had a big dick
them happy they didn't no they were just like it feels sort of like a violation of his privacy a little bit and brynn is like and uber was about to go crazy you guys for so much talk about gaslighting on this show like there's a like i don't know whether or not this is the correct definition this seems to be the colloquial definition the informal definition you guys are really gaslighting uber right here she just thought it was tacky and you guys are making it seem like she was having this giant loud violent reaction
Yeah, truly. So then Brynn's like, they don't understand humor. They really don't. So then now back at the resort, a lot of small talk, a lot of small talk, tons of small talk. Let's get to this fight. Let's just fast forward to the fight. I'm going through my notes here. Aaron Rodgers, Netflix docuseries, Ten Biggest Revelations. Let me see here.
Tequila bottle in Aaron's mouth. Oh, there's a body shot and everything.
Hungry redraws electoral map as Orban's party slumps in the polls. Maloney hails Italy's newfound stability.
Okay, so Rebecca pulls Bren for a ton.
Weather action. Okay, so Bren pulls, Rebecca pulls Bren aside. And so Bren's like, you can go first. She's like, well, do you want Erin here?
She goes, yeah, I mean, she's my friend, so.
Yeah, she's going to tell her a twisted version anyway, so just let her hear the real version, you know? Yeah. So Rebecca's like, okay, I apologize. I didn't know you were triggered. And so Brynn's kind of taken aback, and she's like, okay, well, then I'm sorry I ripped your head off. And she goes, yeah, I didn't know you were going through a whole thing.
So Brynn's like, okay, this girl's going to let me have my, I'm sad about not ever getting pregnant, even though I didn't really want to before story into a thing. So Brynn's like, okay, she's going to give me my storyline. So I'll be nice.
And then Brynn gives kind of like a template apology. It was actually a good apology because she kind of hit all the right notes, but it was actually funny to me because it was, it almost felt like she'd gone to HR and they said, here's how you should apologize to someone. She's like, I'm sorry for ripping your head off. That's not cool. And it's not okay.
Even if I'm going through stuff, it's never okay to have that reaction. Thank you for being the better person and apologizing and initiating this conversation. But I should be the first to apologize because it wasn't right. My reaction was a reflection of me and my insecurity and not having anything to do with you.
So then we transition into her story.
So then she is like, well, I'm fully aware that I don't have kids. And I think about it every day. And I cry about it every day. Like right now.
And she says that she doesn't have kids. And so she freaks out when people say stuff like that, because she understands what it's like to have, not to have kids all too well. And she tells us, she's like, Gideon's not getting his shit together. I mean, he was supposed to go to London to the clinic and give a sample.
And then, oh, my God, I had to pop over to my friend in the south of France to his friend's place. Well, you don't seem like you want to do this, and I want someone who wants to do this. No, you don't. You want a fucking rich person, okay?
You don't get to bag a rich person for his money who you're going to tie up for the next God knows how many years for his money for your child and then demand that he change his lifestyle and stay at home with the kid. That's not how that works, man. Okay. So if you're not going to be able to do this, don't do it. And go find someone real who wants to do this with you.
Stop fucking wasting your time. You're bad.
I love how she's like surprised that Gideon's not into it. Like anyone who watched that episode where she was like, so I was thinking like maybe you can have a baby with me. And he just stares at her and blinks and gives her like a polite British smile. It's like. I would love that. I would love absolutely nothing more. He's like, oh, wow.
So you don't love me. You don't even like me. You don't want to be with me at all and give me what I want, which is you. But then you want me to be financially tied to you for the rest of this baby's life when I'm already in my 50s, probably. Sounds great. Sounds like I'm going to get a lot out of this deal. Yeah, Bryn. Sounds like you really sold him on that one.
Hey, Bryn, it's like she's in her own TV show called Bryngerton. This is totally Bryngerton material. You ever hear about Bryngerton? It's like Bridgerton, but it's with Bryn and a British guy.
um okay so now where are we so they kind of bond and Rebecca's like says that her attention was never to hurt her it was just it was a it was a culmination of like the first time they met like Brynn was just poking and poking and poking and being an asshole so we see flashbacks to that and Rebecca's like I just was like that frustration like I should have just nipped it in the bud the first time and I just feel like why is she coming for me like that like I barely know you and I'm
Love to get to know you better. That's a lie. I don't, I actually have like very successful friends that I'm friends with instead, but like, I just don't want to have conflict with you because you're just not important enough to have conflict with. So it's just like annoying that I have to have it. You know what I'm saying? Right.
Yeah. um so um let's see so yeah they make up basically and um rebecca's like you know i get overwhelmed sometimes and prince like i get that but brent's kind of like i don't really want to talk about you because rebecca opens up about her being a mom and you know she keeps going on and brent's like okay i'm bored with this now And so Rebecca's like, okay, well, surface brin's going away.
So that's good. Now I get to finally meet her. And she's like, well, I'm just like in the place of opening up. But it's just like not everybody is willing to do that. And that's okay. Because like not everyone can share and open up like me just because I want. You don't share and open up.
You berate everybody and try and manipulate everything and manipulate and gaslight everybody around you and try and fuck them up and then start crying about it later because they didn't guess what your trauma was. So, no, you're not too open. I don't think anybody would accuse you of being too open, ma'am.
But she accepts the apology, and they hug it out, and they're going to move forward and everything. And, you know, Rebecca's like, yay. They're going to get mani-pedis and everything. And Brynn's like, maybe I'll have to go shopping. Maybe I'll go to Nordstrom Rack. So then they just say they're going to just start over. Start over. Start over. Yay. Everything is great. A new line in the sand.
Three hours later, finally, the show gets a policy. And it looks like there's going to be a big tussle next week. There's Jessel drama, Aaron drama, Uba drama.
band drama the best kind of stuff so hopefully the show can kind of like write the ship next week because this this episode was a real this one was for a season that's already kind of dull this episode was really really it's just they're treading water just fucking end it it's episode 12 make it a short season why would you take a show that sucks and then make a full season out of it no any other show that sucks on bravo gets a no matter how good the season is they get a 12 episode order that's it
Okay. That's the thing. Andy's been all over this week like, oh my God, don't want to oversell it, but this reunion is amazing. Someone is really upping it in the outfit department. They're upping themselves every, it's going to shock people. Jenna's in a dress. Let me guess, Jenna's gonna wear a dress and it's gonna shock every, I mean, come on, man. Like, just stop.
Just take it away. This whole episode should have been like a seven minute segment as part of like, you know, like whatever's coming up next week. But like, this is the age old thing when they have, if the episode order is too long, they've got to stretch out the content. And then we as the audience are the one that actually suffers.
Yes, why punish us? We're trying to support you. Don't fucking, you're bashing our goodwill into the ground.
as an audience and um my favorite internet comment is this show could have been an email you know it's like the show could have been an email this whole show so um anyway we'll still be back laughing anyway next week uh and the next 10 weeks that this is gonna fucking air i'm sure when do you think the season finale is oh geez oh because we got the holidays coming up it's probably gonna be in the first week or two of january i'm gonna suspect
