You know, not gonna lie. Jeff coming on. This is always a good promotion. And you know what? I miss you and your good looks and that hair.

[Jeff Lewis]

Thank you. Now, you're not selling this product. You're not. You have no sort of affiliation with this company. But you sat down and I said, your lips look so good. What are you doing? Tell us what you found out.

[Melissa Gorga]

So I have a little lip oil on my lips. You know, they sent it to me. I have worked with this company with other products. This is something they do new, and it's a great little lip oil. It's awesome. Do I look very luscious?

[Nicole Ryan]

Very luscious.

[Jeff Lewis]

And then you put it over your lipstick.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes. And just like a little bit. And the oil, it's from no. 7 we can say. But yeah, it's beautiful.

[Nicole Ryan]

I want to suck on that a little bit. I'm not gonna lie.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know you wanna kiss her, don't you?

[Nicole Ryan]

You do.

[Melissa Gorga]

You do.

[Jeff Lewis]

Let's do it.

[Melissa Gorga]

You are so.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's number. Okay, so trust me. And men shout out. Cause I just said I wanna. I said take a picture of a chain. I wanna get it for my daughter. And what did you say?

[Shane]

And your son. I think I would look really cute with some oil.

[Melissa Gorga]

No, I think so. Honestly.

[Jeff Lewis]

Put some on. Shane.

[Melissa Gorga]

Come on, put it on.

[Jeff Lewis]

Where did I put it on?

[Shane]

Can I have a dab?

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes, dab will do ya.

[Melissa Gorga]

Let's see if you get that like glow happening.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you put it. So do you do it in addition to a gloss? Cause my daughter wears lip gloss.

[Melissa Gorga]

So the gloss has color. This is colorless. And it just gives you that, like, oily.

[Jeff Lewis]

Let me see.

[Nicole Ryan]

How old is she that she's wearing lip gloss?

[Melissa Gorga]

Let me see.

[Jeff Lewis]

Your lips aren't too glossy.

[Nicole Ryan]

I kinda wanna suck on now.

[Shane]

Hey, Nicole.

[Melissa Gorga]

Just a dab for a man and like a lot for a woman.

[Nicole Ryan]

It looks like really good.

[Jeff Lewis]

I said to Nicole today. So Nicole walked in a little early and she's got. She's got layered jewelry, bracelets. I said, I've never seen you look more like a girl.

[Nicole Ryan]

I forgot my rings today, which makes me feel weird, but maybe.

[Shane]

I'm sorry, Matt.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, sorry, Matt. Yeah. He said you look so much more like a girl. And I was like, thank you so much. All right, so it's him. It's Jeff.

[Jeff Lewis]

I mean, so we're gonna get the promotion out of the way. However, I have to say, I thought it was kind of bullshit. But your sprinkle cookies are so good.

[Nicole Ryan]

They're bomb.

[Jeff Lewis]

We had lots of questions this morning because I think she was pulling a fast one on us and she just had someone make it and then she brought it in. Oh, see how fresh my cookies are, right?

[Nicole Ryan]

She said they all taste like that.

[Jeff Lewis]

Right? What kind of preservatives are you using in these things?

[Melissa Gorga]

Okay, we've had. There are zero preservatives in the cookie. They're real butter. There's almond paste in there. They're fresh. They're like opening up a bakery. Like when you open it, did you not smell the butter coming?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. I love a butter cookie.

[Nicole Ryan]

I love butter.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, they're a butter sprinkle cookie. And you know what? They're just like, sprinkles make people happy. I just feel like they're a feel good cookie and people dunk them in their coffee and in their tea. You have to See, you have to see the Galentine's parties that have been happening with these.

[Jeff Lewis]

So here's another again, no bullshit. These cookies are fresh, you're moist af. But where are you making them? New York, New Jersey?

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes, Schenectady, New York, which is upstate New York.

[Jeff Lewis]

So then can you do like next day shipping or 3 day shipping? How does it work?

[Melissa Gorga]

So we got so, and this is honest truth about being a new business and opening a business. We got so slammed opening it up over Christmas that we were like backed up. We couldn't get them out fast enough. We had no idea that it was good. I knew people were gonna be into this, but I had no idea it was gonna be what it was. So we took off all the next day shipping and the three day shipping and we just put like a regular ground shipping on. But if you're shipping anywhere to the tri state area, you'll get em like the next day. If not two days middle. Somewhere in the middle. It may be like three days. California, I would say is like 4ish. Four days.

[Jeff Lewis]

Now this is what you said. So you have been, obviously been eating a lot of spring. I mean you don't. I'm not gonna say obvious'cause you look, you look great.

[Nicole Ryan]

I don't know if you want these.

[Jeff Lewis]

I didn't mean to say obviously, did.

[Melissa Gorga]

I gain a couple pounds?

[Jeff Lewis]

No, no, no, I didn' but you guys have tested when, when it's when they're the freshest and it's. You're saying within 10 days. Because I want them as fresh as they are this morning. Right, so within 10 days to LA.

[Melissa Gorga]

Correct?

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, but I'll get them in four days if I order them.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

And my, my house, they'll eat them in 24. They'll eat them in 12 hours.

[Shane]

They'll be gone as soon as.

[Jeff Lewis]

They'll eat them in two hours.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, they're. They're so great.

[Nicole Ryan]

Eat them in a half hour. You just, you know it.

[Melissa Gorga]

Listen, you can eat them after 10 days but like you're gonna get what you just had for the first 10, right?

[Jeff Lewis]

It's so good with coffee.

[Nicole Ryan]

Did you see Bethany Frankel? That's when I knew. I was like, I need these freaking cookies. Because when she.

[Jeff Lewis]

Did she review them for you?

[Nicole Ryan]

She likes them, Picasso. Which means they're really good. Yeah, really, really good.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, she nuts over them. She loved them.

[Jeff Lewis]

I showed you 12 of them.

[Melissa Gorga]

She loves my packaging.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, she does love the packaging. She likes the window. Yes, she liked the window.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

But I Can see why they would do well during Christmas because it's such a perfect gift for 29 bucks.

[Nicole Ryan]

Isn't it a Christmas cookie, too?

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Melissa Gorga]

It went viral because of my love of sprinkle cookies, my iconic love of sprinkle cookies. And we had that argument and all that on the show, and I truly still pick a sprinkle cookie to this day. Like, it's truly my favorite thing when I'm going to someone's house. So everywhere I went, everyone would hold up signs and say, team Sprinkle. Team Sprinkle. Team Sprinkle. And a funny story. I don't know if I've told this story or not yet, but Lisa Barlow, I was with her. We were at an appearance together, and they were, like, in the audience because we did, like, a onstage thing in the audience. People were screaming, team Sprinkle. We love sprinkle cookies. And she looked at me when we were driving home in the car, and she said, why don't you have a sprinkle cookie? I said, I've been working on it. It's actually in the works. But I'm really trying to find. I haven't been happy with who was making them yet. Like, I keep trying. I'm not happy yet. She says to me, I have the perfect person for you.

[Nicole Ryan]

That's amazing.

[Melissa Gorga]

She is.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, she found the person. She's connected.

[Melissa Gorga]

She is. She knows someone everywhere. She. I said, really? I said, I've been looking. I almost had a deal. I was doing it with shoprite, to be honest, and then I ended up not doing it. So she introduced me to him. I drove up there. We met him. We've been like. And it worked.

[Jeff Lewis]

So where do people go to buy them?

[Melissa Gorga]

Let's sprinklebymg.com okay. Yeah. We're just sprinkling all over the town. Jeff Lewis.

[Jeff Lewis]

I just wish I would have bought those instead of bonuses for you guys.

[Shane]

Cookies. Yeah, listen, I would have been just as happy.

[Jeff Lewis]

I would have saved so much money, and you would have been just as happy.

[Melissa Gorga]

Literally, right, Shane?

[Shane]

Chunkier, but happier.

[Jeff Lewis]

So what I love about Nicole is that she doesn't let me get away with anything. So this morning, I'm like, God, I just can't. I can't lose this weight.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean, like, I just. What does that even mean?

[Jeff Lewis]

Then I eat the cookie, and then I'm like, basic. Like, open up the cookies. I want to try the cookies. If I'm going on the radio, I got to try the cookies.

[Nicole Ryan]

And then he went for a second one. I Was like, put that down.

[Melissa Gorga]

He was the first one in. See? He was the first one in.

[Jeff Lewis]

Your publicist couldn't open them up fast enough.

[Melissa Gorga]

She was, like, trying to get the keys.

[Shane]

She's like, hold on, you're stressing her out.

[Nicole Ryan]

I'll tell you how you don't lose weight by eating a whole box of sprinkle cookies.

[Jeff Lewis]

I was ready to push Julia down and open that box with my teeth.

[Nicole Ryan]

You were.

[Melissa Gorga]

You know, I'm sending them to your daughter now, and I want to know how many days from when I send to you.

[Jeff Lewis]

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. So now, Nicole.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

We gotta talk.

[Nicole Ryan]

I know.

[Jeff Lewis]

And Melissa Gorga has no idea what we're about to say.

[Melissa Gorga]

So scared. This is scary.

[Nicole Ryan]

It is scary, actually.

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, God.

[Jeff Lewis]

Nicole, she's an attractive woman. She found. But, you know, you take care of yourself.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah. You gotta.

[Jeff Lewis]

Right, so you found a nice medical spa with this licensed doctor who's doing injectables. Correct. Botox, fillers, whatever.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, all the things.

[Jeff Lewis]

But he's very conservative. Like, you look good. You don't look done.

[Nicole Ryan]

He. He's everything. He's gorgeous, he's charming. He would, like, give me a glass of champagne. I was like this. I literally must have brought 20 friends, my mother, everybody.

[Melissa Gorga]

I didn't know who this is.

[Jeff Lewis]

She told me. She goes, jeff, you should see this guy. But not only should you see this guy professionally, I want to set you up with him. Handsome guy, successful, owns this doctor, owns this medical spa. So then you realize you started. Did your vision get blurry so that.

[Nicole Ryan]

We didn't put those connect. That we didn't.

[Jeff Lewis]

Right. So what happened? What happened?

[Nicole Ryan]

I got. We couldn't find him. Well, first of all, I wanted to set him up. And I asked the guy, but he was like, I can't be in, like, the limelight. Like, he didn't want to be famous or anything.

[Melissa Gorga]

If you're with Jeff, you're famous, right?

[Nicole Ryan]

It's over. And he's gonna talk about you. But he said that you were very handsome and everything, but you dodged a bullet because.

[Melissa Gorga]

So he's gay.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, first, tell him what happened. What happened?

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay, so last. Like, maybe in the spring, I started getting double vision. Like, scary double. Like there was two heads. You had two heads? And dizzy.

[Jeff Lewis]

Four of those gorgeous lips.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, so amazing. And I had. We didn't know what it was. I went to neurologists, I got MRIs, I got cat scans, I went to neuro ophthalmologist, I went everywhere. No one knew what was wrong with me. We figured because I got hit by a car two years ago, maybe something was coming up. It was like a delayed reaction.

[Jeff Lewis]

And she had to wear these glasses because her eyes were cross eyed. So she had to wear these glasses to, like, uncross them.

[Melissa Gorga]

I would freak out. Like, this would give me.

[Jeff Lewis]

She's the scariest looking. And it would magnify her eyes.

[Nicole Ryan]

I looked like Milton from auto space.

[Jeff Lewis]

She really did.

[Melissa Gorga]

She.

[Jeff Lewis]

But worse.

[Nicole Ryan]

It was so ugly.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, my God, it was so ugly.

[Nicole Ryan]

Sorry.

[Melissa Gorga]

But it's like. It was like, like with this guy. You had to wear those.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, he. He goes. He goes, can you please take them off?

[Melissa Gorga]

I was like, you had to torture her?

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, it was hard because I had to look direct because she sits directly across from me. So I had to look at those.

[Nicole Ryan]

My stigmatisms, right?

[Jeff Lewis]

They're like funhouse glasses.

[Nicole Ryan]

They were like funhouse glasses.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, so then what happened?

[Nicole Ryan]

So then it's time for Botox. Last fall, no one can find him. He's not answering the phone. I'm texting him. Finally he texts back, oh, darling, sorry, took some time off. We're moving offices. I'll let you know. And all my friends are like, that sounds kind of weird. So then a couple weeks ago, my friends text me an article that says, man in Hell's Kitchen that has no license to do any of these things.

[Melissa Gorga]

He was.

[Nicole Ryan]

Your guy is injecting people with counterfeit Botox from China. Wait a second.

[Melissa Gorga]

And she got blurry. You're suing.

[Nicole Ryan]

So I'm trying. So I literally was like. But we didn't even think about that. We never thought. No one asked me about the Botox. I go back to see, the last time I saw him, It's March 8th. I started getting the blurry vision. Three days later, he literally injected me with Chinese botulism and outlines.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, my God.

[Melissa Gorga]

This is not funny.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know, but your eyes have uncrossed.

[Nicole Ryan]

They're going back a little bit. They're going back a little bit. So I went back to the doctor. He said no.

[Melissa Gorga]

What did he put in her?

[Nicole Ryan]

What was inside? I don't know. I have no idea. And I asked, cooking oil? Yeah, it could be cooking. No, but it worked. Whatever it was, it worked, right? Like, it looked good.

[Shane]

Your forehead looks amazing.

[Melissa Gorga]

Wait, it did freeze you.

[Nicole Ryan]

It froze me. And then now, like, this is an FBI investigation, I'm looking at your eyes. My daughter the other day goes, mommy, I think you're on the.

[Jeff Lewis]

Which eye? Which eye? It's more this one, but that's the one I noticed. It's the one.

[Nicole Ryan]

You would say that even if you didn't.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's my right. Your left.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah.

[Melissa Gorga]

So who do you call when you see that article? Are you, like, calling the 1-800-number on there? Like, how do you.

[Nicole Ryan]

First of all, my mom's like, not my Joey. And I'm like, this is not a good guy anymore. This is not. It's not how you don't.

[Melissa Gorga]

Dodged a bullet.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, no, I'd still go out with him.

[Shane]

Entrepreneurial.

[Jeff Lewis]

We can work through it.

[Nicole Ryan]

He's looking at, like, 70.

[Melissa Gorga]

He's a hard worker.

[Nicole Ryan]

He's looking at 70 years in prison. And then they found a transcript of a conversation he had with a victim. I don't know why I'm air quoting. Cause they are victims and they're saying that they're having double vision and all this stuff. And so then he writes the people in China and is like, all my patients are, like, having this effect. I want you to send me more for free because you messed up. Like, so he just knew what was happening and still got more.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, my God.

[Nicole Ryan]

I can't even talk about it.

[Shane]

Where is he now? Is he in custody?

[Nicole Ryan]

He was in jail. He got out on $100,000 bail night, like, against his Miami house. Wow. I texted him, how could you do this to me? My husband was nothing. My husband was like, what are you doing? He's, like, on house arrest. He's not going to write you back.

[Shane]

Well, he's going to need someone to watch the house in Miami if he goes to jail.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, this is true.

[Melissa Gorga]

Is he a real doctor?

[Nicole Ryan]

No, he was an. He was just a licensed esthetician. All he was licensed to do was give me a facial. That was it.

[Jeff Lewis]

He wasn't even licensed. Wow. Now who do we sue? Is there an insurance company?

[Nicole Ryan]

No, that's what they. Like, that's. The lawyers are saying. They're like, there's no one to sue. Like, you're like, you want to sue him?

[Melissa Gorga]

He's.

[Nicole Ryan]

He probably. He's a crook. You think he has insurance? Right?

[Jeff Lewis]

And, like, maybe we put another Levy against the Miami house. Does he have any other properties?

[Nicole Ryan]

I don't know. I don't know.

[Jeff Lewis]

He's already moved his money.

[Melissa Gorga]

Why did he think he was gonna get away with that?

[Nicole Ryan]

I don't know. That's what I don't understand. Like, when Like Bernie Madoff. Like, when you're doing something like that, you know it's gonna end eventually.

[Melissa Gorga]

Of course.

[Nicole Ryan]

I don't understand.

[Melissa Gorga]

Wow.

[Nicole Ryan]

So now this is me. And. Well, I was gonna say you're still single, but you're not, so stop looking in my eyes.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm sorry.

[Melissa Gorga]

No, you're, like, studying her now. It's getting uncomfortable.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't think it's. I honestly don't think it's bad. I really don't.

[Melissa Gorga]

Let me see.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't think it at all.

[Melissa Gorga]

So what's wrong?

[Jeff Lewis]

I think you're now hyper aware.

[Nicole Ryan]

They go like, they crawl. They go in. And the muscles. Because whatever this is leaked into my muscles anyways. So there we are.

[Melissa Gorga]

Wait, is that. That's a major. Like, do you have to get fixed?

[Nicole Ryan]

I might have to get fixed. Who are you asking?

[Jeff Lewis]

Caputo. She's next. I'm gonna ask her about.

[Melissa Gorga]

I know. I saw that she was next. I have so many questions. My father. She listening. Then she knows that's who I want to call.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, I was gonna ask her, like, there's certain people that just. A lot of bad shit happens to them, like Nicole. And I'm wondering why.

[Shane]

Why Karma and a past life, like.

[Jeff Lewis]

You always have problems.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah. Okay. You don't have to look at me with such disgust.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm writing this down. Bad karma.

[Nicole Ryan]

No, but ask her if I'm gonna. If I sue, will I get a lot of money? Does she see a lot of. She's more of a medium.

[Jeff Lewis]

Why don't you ask her?

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay. She's not on my show.

[Jeff Lewis]

Maybe we'll sit her down for a minute, let the girls ask her questions. But yeah, there's something. I don't know. It's like a. Maybe we need to sage you or something.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, I did sage. I saged after that happened. And Matt reminded me that the last time I. I got hit by a car a couple weeks later. So maybe the sage is not working.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, I don't think I believe in the sage.

[Nicole Ryan]

I don't know.

[Melissa Gorga]

I just go to church and pray.

[Jeff Lewis]

Can I ask you why did you originally go to this doctor?

[Nicole Ryan]

I'm sorry, he's not a doctor. I hate you because I want. It was so cheap.

[Jeff Lewis]

He was cheap.

[Melissa Gorga]

I was just gonna say it was like $100amile.

[Jeff Lewis]

He gave you.

[Nicole Ryan]

No. He gave anywhere on your face you wanted for 350. I was like, yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

And you didn't even ask.

[Nicole Ryan]

No. That's when I was like, talking to the feds when you Left, though, talking to the feds. Yes, I am. This is an FBI investigation.

[Melissa Gorga]

Of course it is.

[Nicole Ryan]

They were at my house questioning me.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're the star witness.

[Shane]

You're a star.

[Melissa Gorga]

That would infuriate.

[Jeff Lewis]

This could be good press for you.

[Melissa Gorga]

You can be the.

[Nicole Ryan]

No, it's not.

[Jeff Lewis]

Any other bad side effects?

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, but I think it is good. Like, you know, like, you know, the girl on Jeff Lewis's show was one of the victims.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Melissa Gorga]

Jeff is all over this. He is so gonna.

[Jeff Lewis]

You need to create more bad side effects. Because if we're gonna sue, okay, you know, you gotta do like Patrick and Paul do, just make shit up.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay. I can't feel my face right. I'm numb. I got paralysis in one area. Okay.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, there's a lot going on.

[Nicole Ryan]

There's a lot going on in my face.

[Shane]

Couldn't you not drive for a long time? I know, because, I mean, that's a real.

[Nicole Ryan]

Because I was Milton.

[Melissa Gorga]

Think about it. It's your eyeballs. That's like. That's not.

[Nicole Ryan]

She's very upset. Thanks. Thank you, Melissa, for being upset because Jeff just.

[Melissa Gorga]

I would be livid.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you bump into walls?

[Nicole Ryan]

No. I mean, I definitely had trouble walking down the street when I was cross eyed.

[Melissa Gorga]

The fact that we are.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean, it wasn't easy. I saw double of everything.

[Melissa Gorga]

The fact that we're laughing about this is.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean, you have to laugh. Real cry.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes, exactly.

[Jeff Lewis]

Speaking of bad karma, didn't you recently.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, no.

[Jeff Lewis]

Get lice.

[Nicole Ryan]

God damn it.

[Melissa Gorga]

Why did you send me Nice to.

[Nicole Ryan]

Nothing sacred.

[Jeff Lewis]

Give her another sprinkle cookie.

[Nicole Ryan]

You know, it's the kids. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

[Melissa Gorga]

How old are your children?

[Nicole Ryan]

Eight and 10.

[Melissa Gorga]

That's the age.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean, and it was like nine kids in. In my daughter. I'll come closer. Hold on.

[Melissa Gorga]

Is it gone?

[Nicole Ryan]

It's. It's been gone for weeks. Oh, my God. I don't get my head bombed. And they said the moms usually will get it because, like, they're the ones who like, lay with the kids at night before they go to sleep, and then we're just like, rubbing.

[Jeff Lewis]

So then how did you get it?

[Nicole Ryan]

Because I lay with my daughter when she.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, you do? I thought it was more. Okay. I thought you're.

[Nicole Ryan]

What did you think?

[Jeff Lewis]

I thought Matt was more hands on than you.

[Nicole Ryan]

No. And why would you think that?

[Jeff Lewis]

Just. I don't know.

[Nicole Ryan]

You just love him. You just like.

[Jeff Lewis]

I do love him.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean. No, he's not more hands on. I mean, he does a Lot. But, like.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes. Yeah. So I had lice. So. Thank you. Thank you for just these projects.

[Melissa Gorga]

We are just gonna tell all her issues today.

[Nicole Ryan]

Mine wasn't as bad as my daughter's. They said it was a. It was a. It was like a light case.

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, my God.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, you had a light case.

[Melissa Gorga]

Has your daughter gotten lice yet?

[Jeff Lewis]

No. Knock on my lie.

[Melissa Gorga]

Let's hope she never does.

[Nicole Ryan]

And they say sometimes they see eggs, and then sometimes the eggs are in.

[Melissa Gorga]

There and they're hatching. It's all.

[Nicole Ryan]

I can't even talk about it.

[Jeff Lewis]

Did you have to cheat? Like, what did you do with the clothes, the sheets, the bedding, the towels?

[Nicole Ryan]

Bombed everything. We had someone come and clean all of our house, all the couches.

[Jeff Lewis]

What did that set you back a lot of money?

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, it's a thing.

[Nicole Ryan]

I mean, and then for them, if you go to, like, don't. You can't get the shampoo from, like, like, the pharmacy anymore. You got to go to a place. It was like, 500, $600 ahead.

[Shane]

Then what?

[Nicole Ryan]

You don't even know there's places that specialize in this now, how many times.

[Shane]

You have to go back, check their. They were real.

[Nicole Ryan]

They.

[Melissa Gorga]

No, no. They have, like, a whole lice facility. You just walk in and they just do lice.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes.

[Shane]

I'm concerned you got scammed again, like Dr. Joey, but.

[Nicole Ryan]

And so now you think his name. He's not a doctor. Wait, so you think I still have the lice is what you're saying?

[Jeff Lewis]

We should find a lice place near us just in case it ever happens.

[Melissa Gorga]

I knew I should have wore a ponytail. I was almost about to do a pony. I don't know what made me.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, they don't jump. Don't worry.

[Jeff Lewis]

But it's only been a few weeks.

[Nicole Ryan]

It's been a.

[Jeff Lewis]

Why do you keep itching?

[Melissa Gorga]

I was going to kiss her. I was going to kiss her so she could feel my luscious.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, and then they would have been dancing all over your head. Yeah, it's not ideal. And then Matt wouldn't let us in the house, and I was like, stop acting like I'm diseased. He was like, you are.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you think the lice are attracted to the sprinkle cookies?

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, Lord, no.

[Nicole Ryan]

They only like hair.

[Melissa Gorga]

They like dirt. So they actually. They like clean hair. They don't like dirty hair.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, really? Oh, so they. But she had it.

[Nicole Ryan]

You really honor me today. Okay? You just trying to get me to jump.

[Jeff Lewis]

All right, you can make fun of me. Now.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay, that's all right.

[Jeff Lewis]

So Kian was traumatized because I noticed on his hands he had calluses. And I said to him, I said, I don't understand. Like, like, look at my hand. Like, I don't have any calluses.

[Nicole Ryan]

Because he's a real man.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, no, because I wear. When I'm. Okay, this. This is what I'm gonna ask you. I wear weight gloves. Fingerless weight gloves.

[Nicole Ryan]

Weight.

[Jeff Lewis]

Like when you're lifting weight?

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, you should. No, I like that. No, I don't like when. I don't hate when my husband, he has such, like, construction. Joe Gore has, like, construction.

[Nicole Ryan]

I like that. That's sexy.

[Melissa Gorga]

But sometimes I'm like, oh, you gotta like. When does he works out? He does construction, I think. Keep the gloves.

[Jeff Lewis]

Kian said, no way. It's nerdy. Did you say it was gay or just nerdy?

[Nicole Ryan]

I'm going nerdy, too. I don't think it's really gay, but I also like. How big are they? Tiny bit smidge.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, so it is gay.

[Melissa Gorga]

You know what? Because you. You would care more about protecting your hands, I would say.

[Jeff Lewis]

Have you seen. Okay, have you noticed guys with weight gloves in the gym?

[Nicole Ryan]

No, because nobody wears them. Because it's lame. Just being honest.

[Melissa Gorga]

I know. I'm team gloves. Wait, I want to know.

[Nicole Ryan]

Is it like a. Like an old school, like,'80s Madonna type thing?

[Shane]

Oh, my God.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes. Basically fingerless. Like. No, they lace.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes, it is. What is it? It's like a.

[Jeff Lewis]

Like, have you seen them like this?

[Shane]

Yeah, they're just normal weight gloves.

[Jeff Lewis]

They just don't have any fingers.

[Shane]

Right, Kian, you got me some for my birthday. What are you trying to say? You got me fingerless weight gloves.

[Nicole Ryan]

Look at his face.

[Melissa Gorga]

You forgot?

[Shane]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Why would you do that to him?

[Shane]

Like, why are you trying to sabotage my fitness journey?

[Jeff Lewis]

Holy shit. He totally dragged me for wearing those gloves.

[Shane]

They got those for me and the protein thing, which I use, but the gloves, too.

[Melissa Gorga]

Jeff, you work out.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're a bitch.

[Melissa Gorga]

I love him.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wow.

[Melissa Gorga]

You know what I feel like when I'm around him? I almost learn from him.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm sorry.

[Melissa Gorga]

I have to be honest. You do look good.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, it doesn't.

[Melissa Gorga]

Look, he said it when he walked in with his tan. He's very tan.

[Jeff Lewis]

I get it. You don't think I work out. I eat a lot of sprinkle cookies, and I think that's the problem. Specifically your sprinkle. Well, that's the other thing. He made fun of me again. He said I looked orange.

[Melissa Gorga]

It's good. It's a good tan.

[Nicole Ryan]

It's a little tan.

[Melissa Gorga]

It's not. It's good. It looks. I've seen bad spray tans because I live in Jersey.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Melissa Gorga]

Let's not forget.

[Nicole Ryan]

That's true.

[Melissa Gorga]

This is not a bad spray tan.

[Nicole Ryan]

But when I looked at him, I said, oh my gosh, you look so tan. Like I was going to follow up with where did you just visit? Which means it's too dark.

[Shane]

No, that means it's natural looking.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's gonna lighten up. I just got it on Saturday.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay.

[Jeff Lewis]

I've taken a lot of showers so.

[Melissa Gorga]

Long time ago that it's still here.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know. It washes off actually pretty quickly because I take so many showers.

[Melissa Gorga]

Tell the truth. Tell the truth. Do you smell yourself when you go to bed at night? A little bit.

[Jeff Lewis]

I can't stand it.

[Melissa Gorga]

Aruba, Bahamas.

[Jeff Lewis]

The first night is terrible.

[Melissa Gorga]

Right.

[Jeff Lewis]

The second night I can still smell it by the third night because by then that's been six showers, then it's over. Right. But he said, I tried to spray Kian.

[Nicole Ryan]

By yourself?

[Jeff Lewis]

No, no, no.

[Shane]

Give Jeff the spray.

[Jeff Lewis]

Our house manager is trying to create other sources of income, which I really appreciate.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So she's been spraying the employees to get practice.

[Shane]

She sprayed me. I.

[Melissa Gorga]

She's a spray. She's tans now as well.

[Jeff Lewis]

She's not certified yet, but she needs certain many hours and all of that.

[Nicole Ryan]

Does she have a license?

[Melissa Gorga]

I didn't realize she asked for that.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. So she's been spraying. She sprayed.

[Shane]

She sprayed me and Annie and sprayed Annie.

[Jeff Lewis]

Will you show the girls? Oh, that's not Annie. You look like Annie. She's right there. Annie, show everyone your spray tan.

[Shane]

Well, it was Thursday, so it's a little.

[Nicole Ryan]

She's also not naked.

[Melissa Gorga]

Hers looks natural. You must have got the stronger one because it's. I see. No like I see it.

[Nicole Ryan]

Is it a color?

[Melissa Gorga]

I've never gotten spray tan so you can get metallic. I usually. I get the stronger one too.

[Jeff Lewis]

So mine's too dark is what you're saying.

[Melissa Gorga]

No, I'm telling you. I actually like this.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, so the weight gloves are a little gay. Okay, I understand that now. I tried to spray Kian. I said, you really should get sprayed. He said, that's where I draw the line.

[Nicole Ryan]

That's where.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, that's his line. Okay, so my question to you ladies is, when a man spray tans, is it gay?

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, I prefer.

[Jeff Lewis]

Nicole says yes.

[Melissa Gorga]

I mean, I prefer them to go in the tanning bed.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. Yeah, because that's healthy. That's better for you.

[Melissa Gorga]

It just seems more.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, it's a lot healthier.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah. It's not healthy.

[Nicole Ryan]

No. Yeah, I agree. There's something about the spray tan that feels like makeup.

[Melissa Gorga]

Also gonna give them wrinkles.

[Jeff Lewis]

Are you gonna buy that number seven lip oil? Yeah, I think you should. How much is it?

[Melissa Gorga]

I think it's very inexpensive. I don't know the exact price.

[Jeff Lewis]

You know what you should do? Throw it in with the sprinkle cookies.

[Nicole Ryan]

There you go.

[Melissa Gorga]

You get a shiny lip gloss with it.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you would sell a lot? Okay, your publicist is right here.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay. So she's gonna contact number seven later.

[Jeff Lewis]

How about if you buy certain many boxes, you get number seven lip oil.

[Melissa Gorga]

Like a punch cotton. Oh, my God, I love it.

[Shane]

It's only $15.

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, okay.

[Nicole Ryan]

That's a good, good price.

[Melissa Gorga]

See that?

[Jeff Lewis]

Are we buying some for Monroe for some for them. Do you guys. Do you guys shop online when you drink?

[Melissa Gorga]

I do when I have a glass of wine. Particularly on Sundays. Is like my online shopping. If I'm, like, hanging out.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. What'd you buy? What'd you buy yesterday?

[Melissa Gorga]

So yesterday was super bowl, and I was. There was too many young boys in my house, like, gambling. So I think down to that, the last thing I bought online, I want to say is a pair of stockings, like pantyhose.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Did you buy anything yesterday or this weekend?

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, I mean, I buy all sorts of things. I can't stop. I often will buy them, and then I. Something comes in the mail. I have no idea what it was, why I bought it. When I bought it, I'm like, oh, that's. It's in the Amazon car.

[Melissa Gorga]

And guess what? When you buy it online, anything from Instagram, it shows up, like, four weeks later.

[Shane]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Literally.

[Melissa Gorga]

I'm like, when did I order this and why? It's a piece of crapola.

[Nicole Ryan]

Remember when we used to, like, still, like, look at catalogs? Like, you get, like, a Victoria's Secret catalog or something. And, like, for clothing, my. I was so drunk. Years ago, my friend, my roommate at the time, came and found me on the phone ordering a bathing suit for Victoria's Secret. And I was going, do you think this one would look good on me on page 72? Like. And she was like, hang up the phone, Nicole. What are you doing?

[Melissa Gorga]

Do you remember those days? I think we should bring back the Victoria's Secret catalog.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, so good.

[Jeff Lewis]

I had a few drinks yesterday.

[Melissa Gorga]

What did you buy, Jeff?

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, no.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. I'm really embarrassed to tell you what I bought. So it was. Was it on Instagram? It was a reel or something on Instagram. And it showed this really tall guy walking at like, it looks like an outside concert. And then I was like, wow, that guy's tall. And then everybody was looking at him. And then I'm like, why? She's so tall? And then he said, Then he starts promoting these tennis shoes that they give you three inches of lift.

[Nicole Ryan]

Hey, Tom Cruise.

[Jeff Lewis]

So I'm gonna go from 6:2 to 6:5 when I wear these tennis shoes. It's like high heels. Tennis shoes.

[Melissa Gorga]

Can you tell?

[Shane]

They are the ugliest shoes I've ever seen in my life.

[Nicole Ryan]

They've seen the platform.

[Jeff Lewis]

Will you show it to them? Yeah, I bought them in white. They're $70.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, no.

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh my God. Wait, and they got that thing on the bottom.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay, that's probably trying to hide the.

[Shane]

Inc. Half of like. Of like show.

[Jeff Lewis]

Annie. Annie. What do you think of them? I bought them last night.

[Melissa Gorga]

No, Jeff.

[Jeff Lewis]

I can't wait to put them on.

[Melissa Gorga]

I can't wait for these weeks. Like, are you gonna feel different? Well, that's how we feel when we put a heel on. It's like.

[Jeff Lewis]

That's. That's the thing.

[Shane]

Those are pretty. This is.

[Melissa Gorga]

How much were these? How much?

[Jeff Lewis]

70.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay. Not terrible.

[Jeff Lewis]

You know what I'm gonna make up for? Cuz the lip oil is only 15.

[Melissa Gorga]

There you go.

[Nicole Ryan]

But listen to me.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're not even at 100.

[Nicole Ryan]

Girl math. The math's not mathing for me. If you. If you go out with someone, you go out to dinner. It's like, you can't wear these to dinner. Okay, whatever. Let's say you go to like a pub or something with. With your guy, and then like, you.

[Jeff Lewis]

Get home and I'm six two.

[Nicole Ryan]

All of a sudden you shrink.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes. You don't want that I'm wearing them. But then what's gonna happen is then every single pair of my shoes will have to be raised.

[Melissa Gorga]

Well, you have to buy the whole line. I'm sure they have a dress shoe as well.

[Jeff Lewis]

Can they have a dress shoe?

[Melissa Gorga]

You can paint them red underneath.

[Jeff Lewis]

What do you mean you hope not? I hope it works out.

[Shane]

That's the ugliest shoe I've ever seen in my life.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, but I'm not getting red. I mean, why are you showing me the red?

[Shane]

I'm looking at me.

[Melissa Gorga]

More options. Did you really? You bought them?

[Nicole Ryan]

You bought them.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're tall. I'm not lying.

[Shane]

You have Height you can buy soles to put in your sh.

[Jeff Lewis]

Melissa, I'll tell you, the guy that I'm seeing is 6 4. So I'm now gonna be an inch taller than him.

[Melissa Gorga]

Wait, what are you, six two.

[Jeff Lewis]

Six two. But I'm shrinking. I'm shrinking.

[Nicole Ryan]

Not yet.

[Jeff Lewis]

I already shrunk a quarter of an inch.

[Melissa Gorga]

I feel like you're at the sweet spa.

[Jeff Lewis]

Why are you laughing?

[Melissa Gorga]

Joe did, too. He swears and, you know, he.

[Jeff Lewis]

I shrunk a quarter of an inch. Who even would see that?

[Nicole Ryan]

Or.

[Jeff Lewis]

Because I measure.

[Melissa Gorga]

It happens. It does.

[Nicole Ryan]

You're like an old man. You're not an old man.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm almost there.

[Nicole Ryan]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, you're not.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes. No, you do.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes.

[Melissa Gorga]

You see me.

[Jeff Lewis]

Next time you see me, I'm gonna be ducking my head getting into. I'm so excited. $70. When do I get them?

[Melissa Gorga]

I want to see if it's obvious.

[Shane]

I'm sure it'll take a while, especially.

[Nicole Ryan]

If it's her Instagram. Like Melissa said, you're gonna get them.

[Melissa Gorga]

In, like six weeks.

[Jeff Lewis]

What I love about you is you just. You never try to talk me out of them purchases. You just buy them.

[Shane]

By the way, I did. I said, these are the ugliest things I've ever seen in my life.

[Jeff Lewis]

And I said, get them in white.

[Nicole Ryan]

Okay. Sounds about right.

[Jeff Lewis]

I was gonna get the gray and I got the white.

[Shane]

And they only. I just checked the fine print. They only add an inch and a half. To get the three inches, you have to buy an insert and put an insert into the white part.

[Melissa Gorga]

You gotta get the insert.

[Jeff Lewis]

Buy the ins.

[Nicole Ryan]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Nicole Ryan]

This is more realistic.

[Jeff Lewis]

If I'm gonna do this, I want 3 inches, not an inch and a half. Yeah.

[Melissa Gorga]

If you're gonna wear.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm wearing ugly shoes.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, buy the insert right now. How much is the insert?

[Melissa Gorga]

Can you pick a 1 inch insert, a 2 inch insert? Can you?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah.

[Nicole Ryan]

So they're levels.

[Shane]

It's just the one size.

[Jeff Lewis]

I just need the one and a half. Cause that'll get me to three.

[Melissa Gorga]

Okay.

[Nicole Ryan]

Like, if you're wearing pants that are like, kind of wider at the bottom and at least they cover some of the shoe. That's.

[Melissa Gorga]

You never know.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know. All my shoes are like, they. I mean, all my pants, like, they're almost to my calves.

[Melissa Gorga]

Wait, like yesterday, the. At the Super Bowl.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yes.

[Melissa Gorga]

He had on. He had on bootleg. What were they called? Like, they were like flare jeans.

[Nicole Ryan]

Oh, Kendrick Lamar. Apparently they're sold out. Everyone went online to try to get.

[Melissa Gorga]

I couldn't. I was like so focused on the jeans the whole time. I was like, he is wearing a bootleg flared. Almost.

[Nicole Ryan]

Yeah, almost Bell bottom right. Did you not watch?

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm just not gonna let you yuck my yum. I just really. I'm really excited for the. For the shoes.

[Nicole Ryan]

I'm excited.

[Jeff Lewis]

And the lip oil. Lip oil is $14.99 on Amazon number seven. Did you order it yet?

[Shane]

Not yet.

[Jeff Lewis]

Can you get the inserts too, please? I really want the inserts now.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, I get a little obsessive like that.

[Nicole Ryan]

I get what you do. It has to be done.

[Jeff Lewis]

I just want to make sure it gets done okay. The dating app fatigue is real. Mindless swiping, meaningless DMs and an overwhelming amount of likes have made everyone feel more disconnected than ever.

Hey bud. I'm worried about these shoes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, why? Why are you worried?

[Shane]

I had a friend that was 5 8. He wore the similar shoes with the insert. His balance fell and broke his damn kneecap.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, well, here's the thing. I'd be worried if Nicole was wearing.

[Melissa Gorga]

Have a couple of drinks.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're going to lose Your balance. You don't need it with all your stuff going on. Oh, thanks for reminding me. Wait a minute.

[Nicole Ryan]

Forget if you're even wearing a heel when you wear, like, a platform. Like when you wear, like, a wedge.

[Melissa Gorga]

Yeah, you.

[Nicole Ryan]

You gotta get your balance. You're still up high. You might fall.

[Melissa Gorga]

Oh, shit. Sorry. I'm trying, like. Jeff, look at this. You see the thinness of this?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Melissa Gorga]

Could you imagine?

[Jeff Lewis]

No, I can't wear. There's no way I could wear heels.

[Melissa Gorga]

Banged your microphone with my heel.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's a gorgeous shoe.

[Nicole Ryan]

It's porn.

[Jeff Lewis]

Can I get that at Envy?

[Melissa Gorga]

No. These are Louboutins. Eventually, maybe I can start selling those. We'll see. We're leveling up.
