Did he bring Cruz to Hooters for his birthday?

Brittany Cartwright
He did. And I. I am just. I was inducted to the Hooters hall of Fame. I think people forget about that. Like, I love Hooters. I would love to own a Hooters. Like, that does not bother me at all.

Brittany Cartwright
I wanted him to spend time with his son on his birthday.
- [02:51]
Danny Pellegrino
Okay, good. All right. Hello, everyone, and welcome to everything iconic with me, Danny Pellegrino. That was a clip of Brittany Cartwright on Watch what happens live now. I watched it after I watched the Valley. And we're going to talk about the valley of this week's episode. It was called Santa Clarita Trail. Of course we're going to get into it, but I don't know if I was just like slap happy or in a silly mood or what, but I was watching Watch what happens live with the biggest smile on my face. I look like the fucking Joker from Batman because I was laughing so hard. First of all, the story that the clip that I just played, it was in reference to this story that came out that Jax had taken a cruise to Hooters and a lot of people were criticizing, like, oh, you shouldn't bring a five year old to Hooters. And so a lot of us were waiting with bated breath to see how Britney would respond to that. And she had a lot of things to say about Jax and how he hasn't changed and really seeming seems like he's still a demon that we always knew him to be. And so we're all sitting on the edge of our seat waiting for Brittany to respond to the Hooters story. And then that was her response. I love Hooters. I just want him to spend time with his son. I'm in the Hooters hall of fame. And I was like, yes, that's the Britney I love. And then not only that, one of my favorite watch what happens side moments ever happened was they played this game. The other guest was trying to get Britney to guess famous people. And so Brittany had those like, Ramona glasses on and she was trying to guess have. The other guest was trying to have Britney guess the celebrity. So there's a picture on the screen that Brittany couldn't see. And then the other guest was trying to say different hints. It was like the game Password or something where they weren't allowed to say the name, but they were trying to get Brittany to guess who it was. And so Britney's got the big ass Ramona eyes on. And the other guest is trying to describe Elvis. So they say, you know, Memphis and King of Rock. And like all this stuff. And Brittany's like, I don't. You walk the line, you know? And she's not getting it. And it was so funny to me. Let me play a little clip. Andy was getting, by the end, frustrated by her because she was not getting Elvis. Okay, I can't stop watching.
- [04:50]
Brittany Cartwright
I told y' all I'm not good with names.
- [04:52]
Danny Pellegrino
Okay, It's Elvis Presley.
- [04:54]
Brittany Cartwright
It's Elvis.
- [04:55]
Danny Pellegrino
Oh, my God, it's Andrew. Elvis. And she. It was making me laugh so hard because by the end of it, she's like, I told y' all I'm not good with names. I told y' all I'm not good with names. Now, when watch what happens live before the show, producers will usually come to the dressing room and they'll say, hey, we have a handful of these games. Here are the games we're thinking of playing. And they won't tell you any of the questions of the game, or they won't kind of do any of that stuff because they want it to be live. But they will say, hey, we're gonna play this guessing game. So I was imagining Brittany backstage before the show, and there's a lot going on, a lot of people around. They're coming up to you asking if you want a cocktail and asking you if you could come do this promo and take some pictures. And so everything's kind of moving quickly. And I was just imagining one of the Bruces going up to Brittany and saying, hey, we're gonna play this game where you have to guess the celebrities. And she's like, oh, she's probably just freaking out back there. I'm not good with names. I'm not good with names. I'll do it, but I'm not good with names. And then, so by the time we get to the game and she can't get Elvis, she was just shouting. She was breaking down that fourth wall. I told y' all I'm not good with names.
- [06:00]
Brittany Cartwright
I told y' all I'm not good with names.
- [06:03]
Danny Pellegrino
I told y' all I am not good with names. I told y'. All. Making me laugh. There's also the idea that somebody, like, cannot guess Elvis. I mean, that's one of the easiest ones to ever. And I understand that, like, a lot of us, Britney's around my age, I believe. And so, like, it wasn't like we were born in the generation of Elvis being alive. But even if you weren't, it's like Elvis has been an omnipresence in pop culture. So it's like, I think of Kids watching Lilo and Stitch, and it's like you get an understanding of who Elvis is. She's got crews. I'm sure they've watched Lilo and Stitch. When they're not at the Hooters, they're watching Lilo and Stitch sitting down to see what that little demon is up to. Stitch with his friend Lilo. And so I'd imagine you get Elvis that way. There was also the Austin Butler movie where he won Academy Award. Not to mention Elvis is still played on the radio all the time. So the idea that Britney Brit Bananas cannot get Elvis Presley and then got frustrated. I told y', all, I'm not good with names. Oh, it was making me laugh. It was just. I was in tears last night watching it, just. And I wasn't stoned or anything. I wasn't high or nothing. I just thought it was, like, the funniest thing watching her play a guessing game. And it made me want her on every fucking game show. I want her on Jeopardy. I want her on Wheel of Fortune. I want her on the original Password. I like to go back in time and put her on Hollywood Squares. I don't know any sort of game there is. We need Britney on there. Because it was so funny. I told y' all I am not good with names. And she probably said she, like, didn't want to play that. But, you know, I'm sure a producer went up to her and was like, we're playing this guessing game. And she probably thought, like, I don't want to play that. But, like, I don't want to be difficult. I want to go with the flow. I want to play along. Then they're playing along. And then she just looked like an idiot, a dummy. Like, not be him to get Elvis. And then she was just probably thinking in her head, like, I'm coming across so dumb right now. I told y' all I'm not good with names.

Brittany Cartwright
I'm not good with names.

Danny Pellegrino
I loved it. I loved it. And I love my Brit Bananas. I do it. Watching her date, although I am concerned about this Brandon fella who's got so many red flags. And I know they keep saying, red flag this, red flag that, and he's got a lot of red flags. And he's reminding me too much of Jax, and I do not care for that. So at least we have Zach trying to steer her away from this man, Brandon. But I'm concerned. But do I like watching Britney go on a date and take shots on a date with Brandon? Of course I do. I do, and maybe a lot of people don't. And I'm also going to say another controversial thing, that people are going to be mad at me, I'm sure. But I'm lik Schwartz on this show. His floppy presence makes me feel cozy and warm and comfortable and calm in a chaotic world. I need it. And I don't think he's even adding much to the drama, to the nothing. He's just sort of flopping around on screen and I'm fine with that. I like it. It makes me feel safe in a sick, sick way. Even in the opening credits when they play that music where I'm alright and Shorts is just holding hot dogs. Nia's also. We got to talk about that opening credits because I think they changed it from last season. Some of them are still the same, but some of them got, like, new opening credit things. And I think Danny and Nia did. And we're going to talk about Danny in a minute. But for now, I just want to focus on how Nia is holding that hose in the opening credits. Because it's like a very aggressive hose hold. I don't know how to explain it, but it's like every time I see Nia holding that hose and they're on the car that says like four under four and it's like, all right. And then Nia's just holding that hose in a very awkward way. I just. I would like to see the behind the scenes of that because she's on top of the car, I think. Is she, like, sitting weird on the car? I don't know. I love it. I love it. We open this week, though, at the Santa Clarita house. Nia's mom is there. They're prepping this party. And I'm obviously concerned that everybody has to go to this party. And they said it's like an hour away. I think at one point they were like, it's 59 minutes. It's this many minutes away. And it does seem far away. And I do not like when the cameras are in Santa Clarita. I feel a very dark energy there. And it's not just Danny and Nia. I mentioned this last week. It's sort of like the mountainscape. Something about it all feels very dreary to me. And I'm not saying the rest of the Valley or Los Angeles or West Hollywood, where the rest of the show takes place, or where Vanderpump Rules takes place. I'm not saying that's filled with, like, positive energy and vibes, but there is something to be said about how I felt safer in Tom and Ariana's apartment where the microwave would cut out the electricity. Do you know? Do you remember what I'm talking about? Like, that shouldn't feel more cozy than the Santa Clarita house that Danny and Nia live in. And now, granted, it's big, it's spacious, it's seemingly new, but the way even they show those drone shots of their neighborhood where it's like all the houses look the same. I get very Tim Burton vibes. It's like a suburb. A suburb, suburb. It's like a suburb that Tim Burton would do in, like, Edward Scissorhands or one of his movies like Beetlejuice. It's the kind of suburb that Tim Burton would manifest. And so every time we see Danny in Nia's house, I get, like, very uncomfortable, because even as a kid, I remember being scared of Edward Scissorhands and some of the Tim Burton stuff. Like, I loved Batman Returns, but then some of his other work, it would make me really uncomfortable, even. It took me into my older years to get Nightmare Before Christmas, but when I was a child, I thought, like, what is this film? Like, it wasn't the stop motion. It was just. Just the vibes. You know, you get a Tim Burton vibe. And then as I get older, I appreciated the goth and everything of it, but as a kid, I was scared. And so now I'm almost, like, transported back to when I was a child when I go to that Santa Clarita house and all those. The drone shots of all their houses looking the same. And then meanwhile, Danny, already, I feel a demon spirit within him because he was, like, getting ready for that cowboy party. And then when he was talking, he was doing that accent. And I'm like, you need to stop with that accent. And Nia, you could almost hear her inner thoughts of, like, what happened to me? Like, how. How did I get here? Because she's looking at her husband Danny, who she made four kids with under four years old, and he's talking in this accent, and she's exhausted. She keeps saying it too. She's like, I know I wanted this. She's kind of got that shaky voice. Like, I know I wanted this, but now that I have it, I'm kind of tired. And then Danny's over in the corner being like, howdy, partner. Doing his best Woody from Toy Story cosplay. And I'm like, danny, you need to shut the fuck up and go give your wife a foot massage or something, because she's trying to tell you how exhausted she is and how rough it is. And she's like, my body is my children's now, and I'm feeding them every two hours. And I'm trying, and I know I wanted this, but. And she's, like, saying these things basically to her husband, and he's just like, hey, do you want a fuck, partner? You know, like. And Danny, shut up. Like, not now. And then when he was talking in that accent, she's like, daniel, can you please stop talking in that accent? I don't know if I want to hear it anymore. And then Danny's like, okay, darlin. Okay, little dumpling, I'll stop talking in it. But it's my real voice. And she's like, no, I know it's not your real voice, so maybe if you could stop talking in that voice. Okay, dumplin, whatever. And I'm like, okay, Danny, you need to stop. But that whole everything about that Santa Clarita house just feels very uncanny. Valley and they're prepping for this cowboy party. Everybody else has got other things going on. Kristen and Britt Bananas go to the plastic surgery. Now Brittany's getting the mommy makeover. She says she's doing the tummy tuck, the lipo, and she's direct quote, reducing these huge old boobies. I gotta reduce these huge old boobies. That's what she said to the doctor. I love this show. I love this show. Now the doctor comes in. We know the doctor. They know the doctor because the same doctor that did 100 nose jobs on Jax and did her original boobies. Now, I would personally, if I was bananas, I would go to literally any other doctor, because correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Jax need, like, 100 nose jobs? Now, I'm sure he put that nose through a lot. I know that. We watched it. We know that. But then also, even with the bubbies, it's like that doctor should have been the one to step in and say, brittany, it seems like you don't want these huge ass bubbies. And so maybe, you know, maybe somebody else should do the boobies when you're getting them reduced. That's my opinion. And that's how I felt even before the doctor started to gag Kristen. Because then the doctor said, the doctor comes in, and Kristen's sitting there, too. She's just getting them some. Some nice little Botox. That's all she was in there for, to get her elevens done. And, I don't know, post baby, just do a little. A Little Botox maintenance. No big whoop. And then she sits down, and the doctor's inspecting Brittany's big old bubbies. Or what did she say? She got him her huge old bubbies.

Brittany Cartwright
And.

Danny Pellegrino
And then the doctor says, kristen starting to say a sentence. She's like, oh, yeah, I just thought about them sitting up. She was talking about boobs. And then before she's even getting out the sentence, the doctor's like, don't worry, you're next. Don't worry, you're next. Excuse me, sir. Electric chair. Absolutely not. I don't need a doctor. Like, she's. If I was Kristen, I'd say, I'm here for my 11. Sir, shut the fuck up about your opinion on what I need to get done with my body. How about you shut the fuck up? Oh, I got so mad at that doctor. That doctor. Somebody take away his license. I don't really mean that, but you know what I'm saying? It's like he said, don't worry, you're next. It's like, you know what? You need to be next. You need to get this attitude surgically removed. Because I did not care for that. And Kristin's face, she was like a deer in the headlight. She's like, oh, my gosh. And she was angry. She even said in the. I think it was her confessional, she said she's angry she hasn't bounced back faster. Now you have a baby. I think, like, I hope all the moms out there give themselves grace. And I hope all the doctors give the moms out there grace, too. And shut the fuck up and don't say you're next. But, you know, your body goes through a lot. I can only imagine. So I don't know. Then also, the doctors have different names. It's like the booby doctor was different than the other guy who came in. Who's. They were calling the face master for the Botox. I don't know. Brittany says she trusts them more than anyone, but I don't trust them at all. They're getting ready for the Y2K girls night, though. I guess that before Brittany gets the body, though, under surgical care, she is gonna have her date night. She's gonna have her date night. Date night with Brandon. Date night. Date night. They even made, like, a date night reference in the doctor's office. Kristin's like, oh, you're gonna have a date night. I love when Brittany says, date night. Date night. Have an overnight date night. A little date night. And then we cut to Luke and Jason at A coffee shop. Now, Luke asked Jason if he has any chats with Danny and Nia. So he's trying to bridge the gap, which I didn't even realize Luke and Jason were friends. But they're sitting down for coffee now. Luke sticks up for Danny and Nia, and Jason's like, I don't like Danny. I don't care for him. No, this is not going to be popular. This might get me in trouble. But I like that Jason does something that I think most of the other men on Bravo do not do. Almost none of the men who are married to women on Bravo do this. But Jason always backs up his wife. Now, taking out how you feel about Janet and Jason, because I know, I get it. Look, I know a lot of people, they hate Janet. They do. That's a fact. Most, by and large, the audience rejects Janet in a way, in a way that I haven't seen an audience do to almost anybody else in Bravo. And yet what I have to say is, like, Jason always backs up his wife and that never happens. You think of even the history of, like this, of the Vanderpump universe, cinematic universe. It's like Katie Maloney was asking that of Schwartz. Never did it. Ariana, when she was with Tom, they weren't even married, but she was like asking him to stick up for her. Amanda and Kyle taking on how you feel about Amanda, that's what she was asking of Kyle for a hundred years on the show. It's like, back me up. Now, Jason, he just unequivocally backs up his wife even when the wife is wrong. And I think actually that's like a stand up quality to have a husband. Like, if I was on reality TV with my husband Matt, I would want him even when I was in the wrong, because Lord knows we're all gonna be in the wrong in a time or two. Now Janet's odds or Janet's probably batting over 50% when it comes to being wrong on the show. But the fact is Jason's always got her back in a way that, like, I've never seen on these shows. And I think that's interesting. And Jason says his wife, like, when people talk about his wife, it's like a trigger. And so even the other cast members seem to hate his wife on the show. But, like, he's always got her back. And I find that to be a wonderful thing. And that's exactly what I think most of us would want from our significant other. And it almost is jarring because it never happens with the other cast. Members on any of these shows on Bravo. So you see even A Housewives World, it's like the husband will come in and kind of throw their wife under the bus a lot of times. And it's like this man is just there, like, defending her. And it's like, that's cool. I mean, she might be wrong a lot of the time, but it's like he's got her back no matter what. And then maybe behind closed doors, he's like, hey, Janet, like, guess what? You're wrong. But at least on camera, that's what I would want, at least. So they're doing this Y2K, and there was like a little 1999 montage that I want to talk about because they showed some facts about 1999. They were like, oh, the Matrix came out. There was Napster. And then they were playing this, like, very eerie boy band music that was clearly royalty free. And it sounded to me like, do you remember when, like, Pizza Hut or McDonald's, around 1999, they would. They would give you, like, a free CD with the pizza. So you'd buy, like, a Bigfoot Pizza at Pizza Hut. Or you go to McDonald's and for $1.99, you'd get a free CD. And they would have, like, B sides or imported tracks from Britney Spears, Backster Boys, NSync. And they weren't songs that were what the record label deemed good enough to be on the main album. Do you know what I'm talking about? Although I will say McDonald's once released an NSYNC song called if youf're not the One. And I think that appeared on. Gosh, I'm sorry. My facts are a little fuzzy right now because I wasn't prepared to talk about this. But it was, like, called if youf're not the One. And then I think they put it. Maybe it's on Spotify on, like, one of their greatest hits, maybe. But I think it originally appeared on, like, a McDonald's CD and it wasn't on the main album, but it was a really good song, so I encourage you to check it out. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is these fast food places would give out CDs and the song that they were playing on the Valley to show that it was, like, 1999. It sounded like one of those songs from McDonald's giveaway. And so I just had to point that out. But the women, all the gals are getting ready and they're doing their professional makeup at Kristen's. This whole thing Was sort of sad to me. Now Nia's. They got a party bus to an empty bar, but it was like a Y2K themed bar and Nia is still breastfeeding. And so the mom is following the party bus into Hollywood. And I'm happy for these moms to get away. I want them to get away. But it was all very bleak to me that like the mom had to follow. And it was clear to me that Nia didn't. I didn't think Nia wanted to go out. I don't think Kristen wanted to go out. They were all sort of pretending to want to go out. It didn't feel like anyone except for maybe save Michelle and Zach. Like I think those two. And then they went out even longer. And then I was so pissed at production for not following those two because they were the fun bus. They were the fun time. Fun time. Although Michelle, did anyone else notice? There was like a moment with Michelle and Kristen where they were getting along and I was like, since when are they getting along? I didn't understand that. Did we miss something? I don't know. But the point is Kristen or Zach and Michelle, they were having a good time. A gay old time. They went out to the bars. They went to the. They said they were at the gay bars next to the Abbey. And they. We saw a quick little cell phone footage and like that's what we needed to follow because the rest of the party night, it was so sad when they were at that empty ass club. I didn't like that. Although I would personally in real life like to go to empty club. Like, I don't want to wait for a drink, especially if it's my first night out in a while. However, watching on tv, it just felt sad, didn't it? And then also yes, thinking of the mom having to chase Nia on the party bus so that Nia could leave every couple of hours to go feed the baby. That was all sad. I felt bad for the baby too. I'm like, the baby don't want to sit in a party bus. Like, what? What the fuck? I know they have to film for these shows, but it was sad. It was sad. Zach was ready to get fucked up though. And I like that Britney, as she was getting ready though, she said I look like a Y2K prostitute. And she wasn't wrong. Like she was wearing that fuzzy hat. And then Lala also wore that fuzzy hat. And I like that. I don't know. I'm laughing. I'm happy. Britt got her sparkle back. And I think she was going for Pamela Anderson at the VMA Awards, right? With that fuzzy hat. But obviously she's not good with names.
- [23:54]
Brittany Cartwright
Oh, y', all. I'm not good with names.
- [23:56]
Danny Pellegrino
So she's just like, I look like a Y2K prostitute. I told y', all, I'm not good with names. Anyway, they arrive at this bar at 8pm and no one is there. It's called Zero Lounge. Kristin's in heaven, which I get. There was also all this stuff, like a Furby and a Bop It. Remember a Bop It? I loved a Bop It. It basically looked like my office. I don't think you guys can see my office right now because I'm not on video. And also, even if I was, it would. You would not see it. But I have a. I'm looking around. I have a lot of Y2K stuff and a lot of stuff my childhood. I always find it inspirational in my office because when I'm writing and stuff, it inspires me. And I don't know, I like it, but I don't have a Bop It. I do have a Furby, though, that I'm staring at right now. I do have a Furby and a copy of Amelia Bedelia's Christmas in a Rosio doll. A lot of people, I get tagged on social media a lot where people see, like, Rosie o' Donnell merch on at, like, antique malls or thrift shops or garage sales, yard sales, estate sales. And a lot of times people will message me and be like, hey, can I buy this for you and send it? Like, I think you'd really like it. And I'm always kind of embarrassed, low key embarrassed to be like, no, I already have that. Because I pretty much have every Rosie o' Donnell item. Which there were like, Burger King toys. Got all those. There was Nickelodeon Kids Choice merch that was sold at Burger King that have all those. There's the Rosie o' Donnell plush doll. Have that. There's a Rosie o' Donnell Mattel Barbie. Have that. Rosie o' Donnell Kush Balls branded. Have those. I pretty much have every Rosie o' Donnell from her talk show years. And so a lot of people reach out and be like, can I get this for you? And then I always am so kind of embarrassed to be like, no, I already have, like, two of those. Like, I really shouldn't. Like, I shouldn't. You know what I realized though? Like, as I started to decorate my office with a lot of this junk when I was a kid, I think I had that. What they Call scarcity mindset. And this is trauma that I could go through with my therapist. But I had a lot. Anytime I would get a toy that I really wanted because we didn't have like a ton of money or anything growing up, and I mostly got a lot of hand me downs. So oftentimes when I wanted something, let's say I did want the Rosie o' Donnell doll, I would, if I was lucky enough to get one of those things, I wouldn't want to play with it. So I'd keep it in the box. Or even I remember stickers. Like, you'd get stickers and I wouldn't want to put them on things because I would be like, oh, these are really nice. And like, I wanted to save them. So I realized, like, all of my childhood, my toys and everything that I had, I was so afraid to open or play with it. And then, so as I got older and I started recollecting these things, I was like, I'm not keeping in the packaging. Or I would get two of them. I'd be like, one of them's coming out of the packaging and I'm just gonna open it. And so I got the thrill of playing it as an adult because of the trauma that I had as a child not playing with it. But then I look back and I'm like, what the fuck was wrong with me? Like, that was. That's fucked up. I don't know. I need to talk to my therapist about that. Anyway, moving on. Let's take a break here. We're gonna come back and I'm going to go analyze my mental health. And then, then we're going to come back and talk. We'll be right back. I've realized recently that I'll do anything to improve my sleep. I love getting in bed. I've looked into blackout curtains, supplements, new pillows, and suddenly it becomes this whole production. But then I realized the thing that really needs upgrading in bed is the stuff that you're sleeping in and on every night. Which is why I switched to bowl and branch. Now, before my sheets were okay, they were starting to feel worn out, kind of rough, not as soft as they used to be. My bed just didn't feel like that. It was inviting at the end of the day. And once I switched, it was one of those immediate differences. The sheets are incredibly soft, breathable, and just feel better the second you slip into bed. I started with their signature sheets, and then I added the waffle blanket, which I've talked about before. I love the waffle blanket. Especially during the summer months. It's great. In place of a comforter, it made the whole bed feel complete. It's that hotel level feeling, but at home, cooler, more comfortable, and honestly just nicer to sleep in. The more I've used them, the softer they've gotten, which I didn't even know was possible. It's one of those upgrades where you don't realize how much it matters until you do it.

Not just how things look on the outside, but what's going on underneath. Because life is really a mix and some days feel manageable, other days feel overwhelming. It's easy to assume we're supposed to just figure it all on our own, but for me it's usually those late night thoughts running through everything I needed to do the next day, things I haven't figured out yet, or just the general feeling like am I doing everything right? And and the truth is no one has all the answers. But having someone to talk to, someone who can listen and help you process things, can make a huge difference. I've seen a therapist for years and I cannot recommend it enough. And so if you're interested, maybe check out BetterHelp. BetterHelp connects you with licensed therapists who follow a strict code of conduct and they'll match you based on your needs and preferences.

Danny Pellegrino
So we're at this bar and Kristen and Brittany, they cheers to snakes and condoms. Was that what they said? Brittany and Kristen, they. They held up their drinks and they're like, cheers to snakes and condoms. Two things we don't with. Then Jasmine, she pulls Michelle aside and she's like, yeah, guess what? None of us would probably be hanging out with Lala if it wasn't for this show. That's essentially what she said. She said it in sort of that covert way where it's like, I don't know that I'd be so close with Lala if she wasn't in this group of friends or whatever. But what she meant was like production forced us to hang out with Lala because she was on Vanderpump Rules, but probably the rest of us wouldn't be hanging out with her if she wasn't cast on this show. And then Michelle runs and tells Lala and Lala said she's been authentic and real since birth.

Danny Pellegrino
Anyway, Jasmine, she denies it though, when Lala confronts her and then she turns around to Michelle and Lala said she's been guarded. She doesn't trust people. She's like, I was just opening up to Jasmine. They went and had dinner or something. And now this is why she doesn't trust people. Meanwhile, Nia's got to go back to the party bus while Zach is pussy popping on the dance floor and she's got to feed the baby. And I don't think Nia would ever be at this bar. I don't think she was. And this is one of those times. I love my kids and it's my world, but it's a lot. And I feel so bad for her. I do feel bad for her. She's got that husband who's talking in the accent. Anyway, Kristen arrives on the party bus and they talk about Luke wants sex. Kristen's like, I got no libido. And she likes that. She feels wanted by Luke, but she's like, I'm not ready to have sex with this man. And we already talked about that ad nauseam last week. But Luke needs to cool it because even later in the episode he was saying like, oh, he was hoping Kristen would come home drunk in fuck him. And it's like, how many times does Kristen have to say like, I'm not ready yet. It's only been three months. And this is a problem with dating a younger guy. And this is actually maybe why everybody should date a little older because, well, maybe, maybe it's like it's fun to. It's fun to have like a hookup with a younger one because they're going to be ready to go all the time. But then this age gap because how old is Luke? I feel like he's, is he much younger than Kristen's like 42 or something? Right. And Luke is maybe 35. Am I wrong? I don't know. I could be wrong, but that's my guess. And so Luke's like got his heavy libido and you know when you're 42, you just don't have the 35 year old libido they do say women's libido goes up, though, when they're older, right? Anyway, the point is, Kristen just tells Luke to go rub one out in the bathroom while she's gone. She's busy. Like, leave her alone. Anyway, Brandon is waiting home for Brit, and she's like, I'm ready to get home to Brandon. He's waiting for me at home. I can't wait. And the night was a total flop. It did not seem fun. It did not seem like anybody wanted to be there. And I'm gonna need them all to step up their game. If they're going out and have another gals night next season, they're going to at least have to pretend better, maybe hop into acting class before we do this again, because this experiment did not work for me. It seemed like they were all miserable. The bar was empty, and it was sad. The whole night felt sad to me. The only fun part looked like Zach and Michelle when they went out. And we saw the cell phone footage when they were drunk. And Michelle was having a good old time. And Michelle, too. I'm like, the one time we get to see Michelle let loose and go drop, drop, drop on the dance floor.

Brittany Cartwright
Make it go pop, pop, pop.
- [35:08]
Danny Pellegrino
Then we're not getting it because they didn't shoot it. So I don't know, go back to the drawing board. Hop into Groundlings improv class, or do what you got to do because it did not seem fun. So I need all the women to step it up. Anyway, at 10:30am the next day, that's when Luke is making pancakes for Kristin, which was nice. He delivered him in bed. And I got to give Luke credit. I mean, when you go out at night, have your significant other delivery pancakes in bed the next morning. That's nice. And. But then he. I turned on him when he's like, oh, I hoped you would be drunk and have sex with me. And she's like, not even hungover. She's fresh as a daisy because they didn't even really drink. And Michelle was the only one who stayed out to 2am with Zach and Benji at the gay bars. And she calls Kristen. She's hungover. And I was like, why is Kristen getting a phone call from Michelle that they hated each other? What's going on? Then we cut to Brandon and Brittany on their date night. On their date night. And they. Brandon's from. They say Paso Robles. Brittany can't say. She doesn't know where he's from exactly. Like, she's like, I don't know. He From Paso Roblox. I don't know where he's from, but however you say it, I love her. She didn't know how to say where he's from. Paso Roblox. I know Paso Robles. I don't know where he's from, but he's there. And they're at the date night in a nice restaurant and she. They order a 12 ounce filet and they will cut it and share it, which I'm not interested in sharing anything you guys know. I feel about that. It's like, I want to take a couple bites of yours, but I don't want to ultimately share. I need my own plate, especially something. I was thinking of the logistics of ordering a 12 ounce steak. And then she said, we'll cut it and share. It's like, I wouldn't know. Especially on a date where they weren't even official till the end of the date. So it's like early dating. Granted, they've known each other for years, but it's like think of an early date and then you're gonna have to somehow cut a 12 ounce. A 12 ounce is a big steak. A 12 ounce filet, like 12 ounces is a lot. You normally get a four or six ounce. Like a 12 ounce, right? Isn't that what you. A filet? You get a. Maybe a six ounce would be like a big filet. So I guess. Would they cut it in half? I don't know. That stresses me out. And it would come and I'd be like, well, did you get a bigger piece or did I get the bigger. Like I would want the bigger piece. I don't know. But he. Brandon is like trying to butter up. He's like, I like those earrings. And she's like, you do? And then she's like, I came here after Jax and I was like, brent, don't mention Jax on your date with this man. Like, that is not. I know we're all here to pick apart the red flags that Brandon's showcasing, but I would also say, Brittany, you shouldn't talk about Jax. Are. They're not even. Are they. They're not even divorced yet. And she's. I came here after Jackson. I split. And then Brittany brings up his ex and she's like, I hope he. She doesn't blame me. I don't know. They talk about also Hooters. I mentioned Hooters earlier. And she's like, did we ever go on a date or was it. Did you just meet me at Hooters? Brittany's. I can't believe you met me when I was just a Hooters girl. Hooters hall of Fame, baby. Hooters hall of Fame. Brandon, though, he does get, like, one of those. He has them delivered to the table, like one of those giant candles. And he asked her to be the girlfriend. He's like, would you be my girlfriend? She's like, oh, yeah, I'll do it. So they're exclusive now and then they take shots. And Brittany says, zach's gonna have some things to say tomorrow when he meets you. He's gonna have some thangs to say. He's gonna have some things to say to y'.
- [38:37]
Brittany Cartwright
All.
- [38:38]

Danny Pellegrino
Okay, then we cut to Santa Clarita, and they're having this new frontier cowboy party. And Danny loves Santa Clarita. And it feels very sad to me, energetically, feels very depressing. And I come from Ohio, Northeast Ohio, a suburb. And even I'm sitting here say, although I love Ohio, you know how I ride hard for my Ohio? Which I just saw. Teresa Giudice was at Ohio University, where I went to college. I'm like, what the fuck was Teresa doing there? Like, it was like my brain. I saw it on social media. I'm like, what's going on? Somebody sent it to me. I'm like, how's this happening? But then, yeah, Danny's like, got his cowboy hat on. He's like, you never met a cowboy before? I'm trying. You're just so pretty. And he's got the teeth whitening strip in. And he is like, enough. Something just doesn't translate to tv. For Danny, to me at least, it feels very. And I know he's an actor, too, so sometimes I feel like he's doing, like, audition scenes or something. And I'm like, danny, just stop. Anyway, Brittany's house. Lala shows up. Dolly Jean, the dog pissed on the floor. Is that the name of the dog? Dolly Jean. I think lala walked in. She's like, dolly Jean pissed on the floor. And I'm like, who the fuck's Dolly Jean? And I was so distracted by Britney wearing the cowboy print on her pants. She was wearing a cow print. I just thought like, what is this cow print? I know they're going to a cowboy party, but the cow print on her skirt. It was a lot for me to take in. So then they're all going. It's 59 minutes away. Schwartz shows up with a neck Pillow like he's going on an excursion. He's going to Japan or something on a flight. Like he's, he's like taking a 20 hour flight to Australia or something because he's like, you got the neck pillow. And I, I'm the same way. Schwartz. I get it. And I love that he's showing up with plants everywhere. It's like he works. Might as well get a job at a nursery. That's what Schwartz needs to do. Not open up a bar that serves lobster corn dogs next to a petsmart. You instead need to open up a nursery because I'm seeing them with all these plants and like Schwartz just do. That's where your heart lies, obviously. So be a plant daddy and just open up some plant shops or something. There's not. That's something that the Bravo world hasn't dove their foot or dip their toe into or what's the phrase is like a, a fancy nursery. That's what they need to do. Somewhere you could go because I'm always looking. We live near a nursery and a plant nursery. Not a baby nursery, but I go all the time and they have some fun stuff there. But there's only one and I can't even name it. I think starts with an A. Anyway, I think that Schwartz should do it here in the Valley because I would like to go there because I need plants. Although Fast Growing Trees is a sponsor on this podcast, they're great too, if you need them delivered right to your door. Lala though is pissed a Jack. So in the car ride she brings up how Jasmine, she's like, I heard she's two faced or whatever. And then Michelle's kind of backing her up. And Brandon, you guys is giving a real strong opinion on Jasmine. I was like, Brandon, who are you, sir, Electric chair? Like we just met you. Like I, I was. Lala was right. She's like, who is this? Like what do you. We're just meeting you Brandon, so stop giving. He's like, well every time I've been around Jasmine she's been very genuine and happy. And I was like, Brandon, shut the fuck up. Like. And I'm on Jasmine's side too. Like I appreciated that somebody was sticking up for Jasmine, but I'm like, I don't know you, sir. And so enough. Although he was stirring the pot, so that was good. We need someone like that. But LA is so spread out. The idea of having to drive 59 minutes to go to this cowboy party in Santa Clarita in the most uncomfortable vibed house Jesse and Lacey are also there. And I mentioned that Schwartz brought a plant. So I. Obviously this was like fall time. You could tell it was fallish or. Wait a minute. Actually, hold up. Okay. Pull over if you're driving, because I have questions. Because I'm just thinking about this. They filmed this show in the summertime, right? This show's filmed in the summer. It's always filmed in the summer. And did you guys notice that Brandon showed up with a pumpkin? You guys, Brandon was holding a pumpkin when he walked in. Schwartz had the biggest plant. And so I know that our eyes were. Were on Brittany's cow print skirt and Schwartz's plant. But this was fall, and Brandon had a pumpkin in his hands that he was bringing to this event. Now you can't even buy a pumpkin in the summertime. Was. Is this all out of order? I feel like I'm just. I'm onto something. Caught. Got you. Bravo production got you. Caught. This was out of order, I think, because we're only in episode three. Really in episode three. So I feel like this happened at the end of filming because how else would Brandon get a pumpkin? Huh? Riddle me that. Bravo. Cut. Unless was. Did they all film in this fall? I might be just making this up, but he did have a pumpkin. Because, you know, I could spot a pumpkin from a mile away. I'm an autumn, so I know when there's a pumpkin afloat in my. In my line of vision. I know when I in the peripherals, I could see a pumpkin from a mile away. You don't need to show me to the direction to pumpkin patch because I'll spot it. I got a fifth sense for that. My body can feel when there's a pumpkin nearby. And I. There's a PSL being poured somewhere, then guess what? I'm alert. And so there's no way that this was in the early summertime. This was out of order, I think. So I guess they could just put it out of order. I'm onto them. I'm onto those sneaky little. Sneaky little sons of guns. I am onto those. Who's producing this. I'm onto it. They need to get back to the drawing board because I'm catching it left, right, and center. Have you gotten a pumpkin in your hands? And this is supposed to be filmed in the summer? Absolutely not. Caught. Okay, so what are we even talking about? Jesse and Lacey, Brandon brought the pumpkin. Let's take one more quick break here, and then we'll be right back. And we gotta talk about the rest of this. Party. One more minute.

I feel like every year Mother's Day sneaks up on me and I go into the same panic spiral. Do I do flowers, a card brunch? Then I realize I've done all that before and the flowers last what, maybe three days? Which is why I actually love the idea of an aura frame as a gift now. It feels like such an upgrade from the usual rotation. My mom has an aura frame that she loves that I got her before. But they make such great gifts. We also have them in our house. And when I think about my mom, it's not just the big pose moments that matter most. It's the random everyday stuff. Photos where she's just being herself with the rest of the family. Doing something small at the time that you don't think twice about. But later you realize it's everything. And with an aura frame, all those moments don't just live on your phone. You can preload photos before it even arrives. So it's already filled with memories when your mom opens it. And there's free unlimited storage so you can keep adding more old photos, new ones, even videos. I had some my son all the time. So my mom gets updates back home in Ohio of him. And it's one of those gifts that actually keeps giving instead of just sitting there for a few days and then disappearing. So make Mother's Day special with aura frames named number one by Wirecutter. You can save on the gifts moms love by visiting auraframes.com for a limited time.

All right, so we're at this cowboy party, and everyone says you only go to Santa Clarita to die. And I sort of agree. Just the skyline bleeps me out. And I'm not saying Santa Clarita is not a beautiful place, but this specific area of Santa Clarita does feel like Death Valley. Like, do they call it. Isn't there somewhere called Death Valley? This feels spiritually. And having the four, I don't know, I felt very uncomfortable there. And, you know, with the baby now we often think, like, part of me thinks like, oh, could I move back to Ohio, like, to be around family and, you know, my hometown and stuff like that. And I think, like, that sounds nice. And sometimes I. I'm so used to now, though, living in Los Angeles where I lived in Chicago before here. And I'm used to kind of living in a city where you can get food late at night or you can go out or there's people around or you hear noises outside. And I think, like, that would Be hard for me to live in a quieter place, even though that also sounds appealing to me now with kids. But there's nothing appealing about Santa Clarita to me like that. I'd rather live literally anywhere else. I don't know. I don't feel comfortable there. Not only according to this show. I don't really know the area otherwise, but from all the vibes of that. The footage that we see, the drone footage. Mm, Absolutely not. So then we have Zach and Brandon meeting. Zack's ready to give Brandon the business because Brittany and him are together now. And so Britney throws them some shots. She loves a shot. Despite the fact that a doctor once told her on camera to stop taking them. Brittany, she does love a shot. We seen her take 100 shots just this episode. And remember, she had that ulcer. And the doctor was like, you probably shouldn't remember that on Vanderpump Rules. The doctor was like, you shouldn't be. She needs to get a new physician's team. A new. She needs to find a new pcd, a new doctor, and she just needs to figure out a whole new medical team because I don't feel comfortable with Brittany. Obviously, she needs a doctor that's gonna sit her down and say, hey, stop taking the shots because you got the ulcer issue. Maybe she doesn't have the ulcer issue anymore. But even the plastic surgeon. I'm just like, she needs. I don't know what insurance she has, if she has what she needs, if she's got a ppo, but maybe she needs to hop online and search for the doctor in their area that's different from the ones she has because she's always taking the shots. And I remember somebody telling her not to. And so maybe she needs a stronger doctor that's going to say, hey, absolutely not. She'd be taking these. And then also a better physician that's going to tell her, I don't know. I don't know. Isn't there. There's HIPAA laws. I probably shouldn't be talking about someone's physical or doctor care. Moving on. Brandon tells Zach that they're official now, and Zach says Brittany needs to stop opening her heart and just open her legs. And that's advice for the H's. And that's something that everybody should. A warning all should heed. Because if you're just getting out, if you're not even divorced from your husband. I know Brittany said a couple episodes ago, she's like, well, Jax and I have been separated for a couple years or whatever. And I'm happy for her. Move on. But. But Zach is right. Open the legs, not the heart. Because right now, Brittany, I just want her to just have some fun on the town because she's still dealing with that demon Zack or Jax, who can't file the paperwork for the divorce. And she's got the five. She's got enough on her plate. And this man Brandon's got too many red flags. I don't think they're together in real time, though, so that's good. Meanwhile, over sitting down, lala and Michelle are eating ribs and barbecue chicken on the flimsiest plate. You guys, there's nothing worse than going to a picnic or a party. And look, they. They put a lot of effort. I saw a nice charcuterie at this party. They had signage that said, like, cowboy New Frontier, Wild, Wild West. It was like we were entering Britney's house. It was just a lot of signage everywhere about cowboy stuff. And so they put a lot of money and effort into this party, this event. And yet they didn't put any money into the plates, into the dishware, the server ware. And if you're having something where you're serving ribs, barbecue ribs, barbecue chicken. I'm assuming there were side dishes. I didn't see what else they were serving other than the charcuterie. But you need the tougher. I'm not saying not get disposable plates, but you need the tougher disposable plates. And I am actually of the opinion that they shouldn't even be allowed to make those flimsy ones because the ones that lala and Michelle were eating off of, of those things. Remember that game in the 90s, there was something called Don't Break the Ice where you'd put like a tissue. And the commercial was like these three little kids and you'd have to pick these balls up with tweezers and you'd put them on this wet tissue. And then whoever did it and the balls went through the wet tissue. I had that game and it was like almost immediately when you'd wet that tissue, it would break open. And so you couldn't play for very long because you'd put one little ball on there and it would be like, oh. So whoever went first was fucked anyway. I think it was called don't break the Ice. But the point is, those plates that they were eating off of, it was like, don't break the ice. It was, you might as well eat off of a wet tissue because there's no way that's. And Then not only that, it's the worst to go to picnic, and you're. You're putting those flimsy plates on your knees, okay? And if you don't even have to be a clumsy person for everything to go backwards and sideways. So I'd imagine Brittany left that party, for instance, and she had that cow print on her skirt, and that thing was probably covered in barbecue sauce and sweet corn or whatever the fuck they were serving at this barbecue. Because that flimsy plate, you put it on your knees. And if you got one other thing, if your phone rings or you turn sideways or a gust of air comes in, a breeze, I don't know what the breeze is like in Santa Clarita, but you get one little breeze in Santa Clarita and then those ribs are toppling over from your flimsy ass plate. And so I would just. It would behoove. It would behoove Nia and Danny just. And I knew Nia's got a lot on her plate, so Danny really needs to head on over to the party city or wherever. Fuck you buy some better plates for this party. Party city's closed, I think, but order them online. Whatever you gotta fucking do. But Nia's got enough on her plate. She's going every two hours. And I bet you. I bet your bottom dollar that that dumbass Danny was the one in charge of buying that dinnerware. Nia probably was like, hey, can you at least like, go get ice? You know, the men. The bar is so low for these men that, you know, she was just like, can you at least go pick up a bag of ice? Because that's like, the one thing that the men, I feel the one thing that they can handle is like, go getting a bag of ice at least. Growing up, I always remember, I was like, can you get my mom out? Gary, go get the ice. Go get a bag of ice scare. And so it was like, go to the gas station, get a bag of ice. But I bet you she was like, can you get a bag of ice and some. Some. Some paper plates? And so he took that to heart and just got the flimsiest paper plate he could find. He probably went to the aisle and was like, what's the cheapest paper plate? But I know. I know Danny was behind that. I know Daniel was buying that. Can you just go get us some plates and some ice for the party and I'll take care of everything else, you know, that's what Nia probably said. And Danny comes back with those flimsiest plates. I was so mad at him. Give your wife a break. Give your wife a break and pick up some nicer plates. I can only imagine the way they all went home with barbecue sauce in their pants. I know it. I know it. Okay, what else is going on? Danny and Luke talk about Jason. Danny's mad at Luke now because Luke is just really playing the reality TV game. But also, if I'm led to believe that this happened later in the summer, I don't understand how this storyline makes sense then with Jason. So did they just not film together all summer because Brandon had a pumpkin? Maybe they started filming late. I could be wrong. Maybe they, they did this season late and it was all fall. I don't know. I'm just going off of the old seasons I thought were in the summertime, but maybe this one was fall. I don't know. The fuck do I know? I'm a dummy. I'm an idiot. Okay, so Brandon and Jasmine talk. Brandon stirring the pot with Lacy there too. Lacey Brandon's talking about. Michelle was also in the car talking about Jasmine. And Lacy's like, I'm not getting in the mix because Michelle and I are on our path to healing or whatever she says. And then Jasmine tells the group and Brittany gets mad at Brandon because Brittany's like, brandon, I just left Jax and he loved to gossip. And. And this is the same. And I just wrote my notes. Leave him, sis. I wrote that Brittany, leave him. Leave him. Zach sticks up for lala and Brandon, though, and lala says she was the one who brought it up in the car. And this is when lala calls Brandon a rat. And Jasmine's now mad at Zach because Zach was sticking up for. It's a big mess. And Britney's over in the corner. She's like, now it's a big thing. Now it's a big thing. I'm not good with names. I told y'. All. Now it's a big thing. Anyway, that's the end of the episode. Next time we get Schwartz, Michelle and Lala going to singles night. We also have a guys night. Luke. Luke and Kristen get into it. But I do love this show, I think, because look, everything going on in Summer House, which I'm, I'm loving Summer House. A lot of people are saying like, Summer House is ruined now because of the west and Amanda stuff. But I find it so much more interesting because I'm watching the episodes and I'm like, oh, look at. We could see these weird things going on that were just. I don't know, it feels more like I'm an active participant in watching Summer House. Like, I like it, but it is heavier. And so I sort of like having the Valley, which I never thought that Valley would be like the light, airy show on Bravo, but it's like, yeah, the Valley is sort of the light Aries show right now in Bravo, and I'm. I need it. And I need Floppy Schwartz just kind of running around with plants. Brandon being a mess. Brittany Daytona. Like, I. I'm not loving, like, the. The Luke and Danny of it all. And I. I bet you a lot of people have been pointing this out. So it's not like I'm the first one to say this, but I bet you the men are kind of pissed that Jax is off the show because it made them all look better. And now that Jax is off the show, it's like we're. We're highlighting a lot of the shortcomings of these men that we wouldn't have seen otherwise because we would have been so focused on the other demon. And so that's interesting to me. But it's light and airy and fun, and I don't know, I'm like, I like the Valley. I find it. I don't know. Am I sick? Am I sick for loving it? All right, thank you all so much for listening. We'll be back next week with our summer house recaps and Valley recaps. And thank you all so much for listening and have a great rest of your weekend or weekend or whatever time and space we are in. Have a good.
