Jeff Lewis
When you're Jeff Lewis, the drama never stops.
Doug Buden
I'm sorry. We didn't mean to offend anybody. We offend everybody.
Shannon Beador
We live in a nest of positivity.
Doug Buden
I live in a nest of negativity.
Jeff Lewis
She said, I swear you'll love him.
Shannon Beador
I said, you could swear all day long. I hate that guy.
Jeff Lewis
Jeff Lewis has issues.
Doug Buden
Hey, welcome to Jeff Lewis has issues. In today's episode, Shannon Beador and Doug Buden join the show. We talk about holiday travel, Shannon's lawsuit and red flags. We are waiting on Shannon Beador.
Teresa Migas
We are.
Doug Buden
We saw her last night. You spoke to her this morning.
Teresa Migas
We got her a hotel room a four minute drive from here.
Doug Buden
Right. And then you spoke to her this morning.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, we.
Teresa Migas
We're texting from 8 to 8:17 about the address. What do you want for breakfast? Should I pick you up? No, I'm gonna drive like we're all good.
Jeff Lewis
And I just.
Doug Buden
I'm a little concerned about this.
Jeff Lewis
I just called her, she did not answer her mobile and I called the hotel and she didn't answer in her room. So she's somewhere between the two.
Doug Buden
Well, could it be the Thanksgiving traffic?
Shannon Beador
Trisa Migas. Teresa Migas.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, that's right. Today's the busy travel day. She's stuck.
Doug Buden
Doug on cuenca. Doug immediately this morning started telling us about Newark airport.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, we got problems at Newark.
Oscar
That's my hometown airport.
Jeff Lewis
I know it is, but you can you.
Doug Buden
We've got problems. We live in la. We don't have any problems.
Jeff Lewis
You know what I think about everybody else? We the globe people who are traveling. Today is, as we know, the biggest travel day of the year. And we got some problems. We got big storms in the northeast, but Newark has no. I'm being serious. Newark has a big shortage of employees so the lines at security are already bad. United just put out a statement. So if you are traveling through ewr, Newark or as Jameson would say, Newark, Newark, take heed and get there early.
Oscar
And that airport is already not fun.
Doug Buden
Really?
Oscar
No, it's not a fun one.
Doug Buden
I haven't gone into Newark in a long time. I've been doing jfk.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, only if you're flying United. You don't have a choice. You have to go into Newark.
Oscar
Their security lines are.
Doug Buden
But you seem very concerned about the sky traffic.
Jeff Lewis
Well, we have. Shane is traveling, Annie's traveling, people are traveling today. I have everybody's flights on my phone. So, you know, I'm aware. I'm flight aware.
Doug Buden
You even know what, you even know what plane Shane is taking today.
Teresa Migas
Yeah, I'm happy with that.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. 787 Dreamliner. It's eight years old. It's a good plane. It doesn't have the window shades. It has the button that you press. But what I said. And for everybody who's traveling, if you're on a Dreamliner, the big differentiator, beside the fact that it's new and bells and whistles, is that the oxygen level is set to be at a much lower above sea level than other jets. So when you're flying on a Dreamliner, it's set to feel like you're 5,000ft above sea level. So as opposed to all other jets which are closer to 11,000ft above sea level. So when you're on a Dreamliner, there's more oxygen. You won't get jet lagged.
Doug Buden
All right. So, Shane, you going to Amsterdam today?
Teresa Migas
Yeah, My brother has been there for like five years. I've never been, so I'm going to go see him.
Doug Buden
But it's a family trip, right?
Teresa Migas
I started it because my family didn't have plans for Thanksgiving. So I was like, I'm just going to go to Amsterdam. And then my mom was like, well, if you're going, I'm going. And then my brother was like, well, I'm not going to be alone on Thanksgiving. So now we're all going.
Doug Buden
But there was a little bit of a mishap last night, correct? Drama.
Teresa Migas
Yeah. My youngest brother goes to college at Cal Poly, like three hours away. So his plan was to drive down here last night and then we would fly together from LAX to Amsterdam. My parents live in eastern Washington. They're going to connect through Seattle. We all land at the same time. But then as he's packing his backpack last night, Luke finds that his passport is at home in Washington with my mom. Mom and dad.
Jeff Lewis
We got some problems.
Teresa Migas
So it was a lot of drama, a lot of phone calls, but he ended up driving. He got to my apartment at 11:00 last night. Then he flew LAX to Seattle at 7:00 this morning. And now he's gonna meet my parents at their connection with the passport.
Doug Buden
Can you believe another mystery solved. Shannon Beador. Oh, I lost my phone. I guess I dropped it and valet just found it. I'll be there in five minutes.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, my God. Well, I'm gl. Glad she's okay.
Doug Buden
I'm glad she's okay. I was a little nervous. Like it's four minutes away. We just spoke to you. But then I guess between. I guess between 8, 17 and 9.
Shannon Beador
O4.
Doug Buden
She lost her phone.
Teresa Migas
So she must have been like, at, you know, going down to the valet at 8:20, drops her phone, and then. And then if.
Jeff Lewis
See, but if she was sharing her location the way like, Kelly is, we would know exactly where Shannon and her phone are.
Teresa Migas
I need to add her and find my friends.
Doug Buden
You're not gonna believe this, but this is like hell has frozen over. Guess who I'm spending Thanksgiving with?
Oscar
Who?
Doug Buden
Doug.
Oscar
Oh, damn.
Doug Buden
This must be.
Oscar
Oh, no. Things must have gone really wrong in your life, Jeff.
Doug Buden
This is the problem. When I've been drinking, as you know, I become the friendliest, most loving human being. What are you doing for Thanksgiving, Doug? You have got to join us. And then, of course, this morning, I'm like, what did I do?
Jeff Lewis
Well, I could still get out of it. I told you, I had to be Ukrainian.
Doug Buden
I think it would be interesting. My kid loves you, by the way.
Oscar
What are you guys doing? I saw Todd and Carrie are in Hawaii.
Doug Buden
Yeah, that's kind of my family. Like, everyone is doing their own thing. So. I learned that years ago. I think I've talked about this on the radio where I had called my parents and I said, hey, what are we doing to Thanksgiving? I'm like, oh, we didn't tell you. We're going to be in Cabo. So I kind of knew years ago that we are kind of on our own.
Jeff Lewis
You are on your own.
Doug Buden
Yeah. So it is funny because I thought about it because we had a few places to go and I thought, is this going to be fun for Monroe? More importantly, is it going to be fun for me? And I don't know if I want to go to a friend's Thanksgiving and sit next to an Uncle Joe or Aunt sue or Grandma or people that I don't really know or want to talk to. And then I thought, does Monroe have someone to play with? And all that? So I thought, fuck it. Let's just go to. Let's go to lunch. And I'm taking Monroe to Wicked.
Oscar
Oh.
Doug Buden
And then it's kind of like I'm picking up people as we go along.
Oscar
Nice.
Jeff Lewis
So I'm going to join for the movie, which I'm really excited to see.
Doug Buden
Yes, yes. And you're going to like, because I got the first row, one of which is a handicap seat.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, for me?
Doug Buden
Yep.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, great.
Oscar
And Doug, remember, no singing. You have to sing in your heart.
Doug Buden
Oh, Doug. Yeah, Seriously.
Jeff Lewis
Okay. I'm gonna bring a piece of tape to put over my mouth.
Teresa Migas
Is gonna bring a Piece of tape.
Oscar
Now, I sent Doug a series of videos of BTS videos. That's behind the scenes. Did you already watch for those? Not in the industry. Did you already watch that?
Doug Buden
I didn't even know what that meant.
Jeff Lewis
I already watched. And in fact, I know the guy who wrote the music. So I texted Steven Schwartz.
Doug Buden
Monroe's doctor is on the line. Can you call? Hold on one second.
Jeff Lewis
Okay? We're just gonna take a quick phone call.
Doug Buden
No, he's just gonna go take the call.
Jeff Lewis
Okay? Shane's gonna go ahead Anyway, I texted because I know you're lucky.
Doug Buden
You don't have to listen to this story. I know that, but you know what? I'm gonna take the call.
Jeff Lewis
In fact, speaking of calls, do you want people to call in? Do you want to open up? I text him because I know Stephen makes an appearance in it, and I know all the Easter eggs.
Oscar
Spoiler alert, Doug.
Jeff Lewis
Thank you. You know what?
Oscar
Who is gonna recognize.
Doug Buden
Wait, who's making an appearance?
Jeff Lewis
Stephen Schwartz, who wrote the music. It has a little cameo.
Oscar
There's a few cameos in there you won't notice. It's when you get to Oz and.
Jeff Lewis
Idina and Kristen that I'll recognize. Yeah. Yeah. I'm really excited. And they grew 9 million tulips from Munchkinland. Real tulips. They grew 9 million of them. It's the same production guy who did interstellar. He grew 500 acres of corn.
Doug Buden
Okay. Hey, baby reindeer. What are you doing for Thanksgiving?
Jeff Lewis
He's talking to Oscar.
Jameson
Not much. I'm just probably go over to my neighbor's house and eat.
Doug Buden
Do you mean parking outside John's house and watching his Thanksgiving from the street?
Jameson
I actually don't know what John's doing for Thanksgiving. I surprised I ought to text him and ask him.
Jeff Lewis
So we have the Smith sisters.
Doug Buden
Oh, did you enjoy John Hill's show?
Jameson
Yes, I did. Absolutely I did.
Doug Buden
Have you been before?
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, he's been to all of them.
Teresa Migas
How many?
Jameson
I've only been to two.
Teresa Migas
I've been to three, actually.
Doug Buden
You could have sat with us in the booth, but you had such a great seat right there at the front. I just didn't want to disturb you.
Jameson
Yeah, vip.
Doug Buden
And you seemed very transfixed. It was great. But just so you know, I did not want you to think you weren't welcome.
Jameson
I appreciate it.
Doug Buden
Did you at all feel welcome at all? I guess I should have said, hey, would you like to sit with us? I thought about saying it.
Jameson
Well, you guys were right behind me, and you guys said Hi. And that was welcoming enough.
Doug Buden
Oh, I said hi. Oh, good. I'm so glad I didn't ignore you.
Oscar
Must have been drunk.
Jeff Lewis
He must have been drunk.
Doug Buden
He's good. Oh, speaking of getting wasted. We did not get wasted, but we had a lovely time at Dubarbara.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, I heard from Barbara. She reached out to me. I'm so glad.
Teresa Migas
Are you guys friends now?
Jeff Lewis
We are friends. In fact, she wrote. I think she meant excited, but she wrote, I was so exited to meet Jeff, I forgot to ask for a photo. So you have to go back and do a photo with Barbara.
Doug Buden
It was such a great recommendation, Doug. And I think if you live in the LA area or near the LA area, I think it's a great. It's a great date restaurant.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah.
Doug Buden
I mean, you really feel like you're having dinner in someone's home. It is a home, isn't it?
Jeff Lewis
It is. So it's a residential loft that she converted. But they did get their, like, certificate. It is an actual restaurant. And I know that they applied for.
Doug Buden
A liquor license question.
Oscar
Are you hearing other people's conversations? Is it.
Doug Buden
It is. Okay. It is a bit quiet. Well, look, the whole restaurant heard Joey.
Oscar
Yeah, of course.
Doug Buden
Right, Joey? He did not use his inside voice, but, yes, it is kind of quiet.
Jeff Lewis
Westbury. But there's music playing.
Doug Buden
They have music playing. It's very pretty. And the service is incredible. The food is amazing.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, it's great. I mean, it's really. It's.
Doug Buden
It beats Olive Garden.
Jeff Lewis
It's like. It's like.
Doug Buden
It really does. And I love Olive Garden.
Teresa Migas
They did charge a corkage fee. I looked, but it was only like, $20, I think.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. No matter what you bring.
Doug Buden
Because we had two bottles of wine. Did they charge 20 times? Two.
Teresa Migas
Correct.
Doug Buden
Really?
Teresa Migas
Yeah. Barbara.
Doug Buden
Barbara.
Jeff Lewis
I like the plates and the serving. Everything was very cool.
Oscar
Is it a commercial kitchen or is it the kitchen that comes with.
Jeff Lewis
It's literally the same stove.
Doug Buden
It's like a kitchen. Like a normal kitchen.
Jeff Lewis
She's cooking on the GE Cafe.
Doug Buden
Yeah, she really is. She really is.
Jeff Lewis
And the fridge is like an apartment fridge.
Oscar
Wow.
Jeff Lewis
But it's a restaurant and she's a trained chef.
Doug Buden
Did you not go with us that night because you were at the symphony?
Jeff Lewis
Yeah. Correct. That's right. I was at Star Wars.
Doug Buden
Oh, good God. How was that?
Jeff Lewis
Well, there were only two lightsabers from what I could see.
Teresa Migas
But I heard this brought them into the auditorium.
Jeff Lewis
People brought. There were two lightsabers.
Doug Buden
You're not supposed to.
Teresa Migas
You're supposed to check out at the door.
Jeff Lewis
You were supposed to check them at the door. I saw two.
Teresa Migas
There's the door.
Jeff Lewis
Two Princess Leias. I didn't see anybody in helmets, but I did. I was brought to tears when they played that Imperial March. Like, truly. It was an incredible concert and I.
Doug Buden
I'm sorry you were brought to tears.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, yeah. You know, that's. It's like that when you.
Oscar
When.
Doug Buden
Oh, look who's here. Open the door for Shannon Bedore.
Jeff Lewis
You know, that really annoys me.
Doug Buden
Good morning. You look good. Oh, cute.
Jeff Lewis
Shannon. Shannon, we are live.
Doug Buden
She looks skinny. Skinny Shannon Beador.
Teresa Migas
Love skinny.
Jeff Lewis
Shannon, come over here.
Doug Buden
I have to tell you, Shannon Beador. And this was just not. This was not just the drinking talking. Shannon Beador's facelift looks so good. It is worth. It was worth the lawsuit. Good morning.
Shannon Beador
All I'm saying is settled.
Doug Buden
It's like, settled.
Shannon Beador
I need a picture because I'm wearing a Prada sweater and Paul and Patrick will vote me best dress.
Doug Buden
Actually, I don't think they are going to vote your best dress because. We'll show you the picture because you were late. We'll show you the picture we posted.
Jeff Lewis
Oh, did you post? I didn't see it.
Doug Buden
Yeah, why don't you show Shannon that live so you can look at it?
Shannon Beador
Oh, stop it.
Doug Buden
It is a cute sweater. Too bad if you look at JLJeffLewis, you'll see the picture we posted today.
Shannon Beador
Thank you for that.
Doug Buden
Was that you dressed as Gina?
Teresa Migas
Yeah.
Shannon Beador
Yeah, it was. And I apologize again.
Doug Buden
Where's the rest of her legs?
Jeff Lewis
Who needs them? She ain't got no legs.
Doug Buden
Oh, God. Ok. What's up, Shannon? You lost your phone?
Shannon Beador
I dropped my phone on the way from the room to the car and I went back to the room, to the car, to the room, to the car. Literally opened my luggage and then I finally. And Because I can't call you and say, what's the address? So I finally said to the guy, do you have a house car? They go, no, we don't have a house car because I can't call Uber.
Doug Buden
So anyway, it's not the Peninsula.
Shannon Beador
So anyways, I go, I don't know where my phone is. I need a car. Can you just call me an Uber and I'll pay you when I get there. And he said, oh, I found a phone. We found a phone on the ground. Oh, that was my phone.
Jeff Lewis
And you saw missed calls and texts?
Doug Buden
Yeah. Okay.
Shannon Beador
So I'm sorry. I'm here.
Doug Buden
So you drove your car?
Shannon Beador
Yeah.
Doug Buden
Now the breath Breathalyzer that starts the car. That's still in the car.
Shannon Beador
I have five more classes to go because I should be done. But I was on a dating show for a month and then I've been filming and doing the reunion and all these things.
Doug Buden
So now you're going to do your five classes.
Shannon Beador
Five.
Doug Buden
And then you get that breathalyzer taken out of your car?
Shannon Beador
Yes.
Oscar
What does valet do?
Doug Buden
That's what you have to self park.
Shannon Beador
Well, it's a problem. They said at the hotel we cannot park your car. So they said, go to the parking lot across the street. And it said, no overnight parking. So I parked on the street and it said that it was a taxi zone from 11 to 3am So I said, well, the ticket. I have to pay the ticket. And knock on wood. There was no ticket on my car. They didn't catch me.
Doug Buden
You got lucky.
Shannon Beador
I got lucky.
Doug Buden
Lucky. You got to. You got to finish those classes.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah.
Doug Buden
How long taken out?
Shannon Beador
No. So I'm going to do makeups next week. I'm going to do three. Knock them out.
Doug Buden
Nice.
Shannon Beador
No, but by the way, I love my teacher. Like, I know my group. We'll say a couple of USC Trojans are in there. So they'll go fight on. Did you go the game? Like, it's cute. Yeah, I like my class.
Doug Buden
You also apparently really love your job that you took on for community service. Because I called you like last Sunday to shoot the shit you did and you're like, hey, what's going on? I'm like, why are you whispering? She's like, I'm at work. I'm like, work? When did you get a job? And she goes, no, the community service job.
Shannon Beador
No, I said, I'm at the thrift shop.
Jeff Lewis
So this is the church thrift shop where you work?
Shannon Beador
Yes.
Doug Buden
She's like whispering the whole time because.
Shannon Beador
I didn't want to make a big scene as we were sorting the clothes.
Doug Buden
Right. A lot of redo.
Shannon Beador
No, there was quite a bit of redo. I'm not going to lie. When you sort. We only.
Doug Buden
So for those of you in the industry, it's called redonate, right?
Oscar
That is the industry term.
Shannon Beador
Okay.
Jeff Lewis
We keep.
Shannon Beador
No, we only keep the nice stuff.
Doug Buden
Yeah. Have you got more stuff from the thrift store?
Shannon Beador
Oh, yeah. I get stuff every time.
Doug Buden
Really?
Shannon Beador
No. I'll see.
Doug Buden
Like that Prada sweater.
Jeff Lewis
You got this at the thrift store?
Doug Buden
At the thrift store.
Shannon Beador
By the way, this isn't even mine. This is Sophie's. I borrowed it.
Teresa Migas
I was gonna say, I think Sophie's worn that I've seen her wearing.
Doug Buden
Someone has got her fall sweep bra.
Shannon Beador
And I'm not gonna lie, it's a little too much boob today.
Jeff Lewis
Your boobs are boobs.
Shannon Beador
It's too high.
Doug Buden
I don't think it's too much.
Jeff Lewis
I could rest a drink on her.
Doug Buden
That's true.
Shannon Beador
It is. It's a bit shelfy. It's a bit shelfy.
Doug Buden
I love that fall sw. When you walked in last night, I was like, holy shit, she's got that false sweet bra on again.
Shannon Beador
Well, you call it false advertising, and I just call it a good bra for $22.99.
Doug Buden
I just think you have to leave it on during sex.
Shannon Beador
Okay, well, we don't have to worry about it.
Jeff Lewis
Are we going to talk? Are we going to talk about that?
Shannon Beador
Yeah. That's not a concern.
Jeff Lewis
Okay.
Shannon Beador
Yeah.
Doug Buden
I enjoyed the reunion.
Shannon Beador
Yes, it was something. But I want to ask you, has there ever been a housewife show that picks up the cameras after?
Doug Buden
No. Yeah, but there's also. It's unusual for two people that have had a secret that hold it for, like, seven months and then, like, tell you at the dinner after the third part of the reunion.
Shannon Beador
Like, I literally. I was numb because I just. I made reservations at the same restaurant weeks before to take my glam out. I always take my glam out out after the reunion.
Doug Buden
Stake 48.
Shannon Beador
Yeah, that's where we went. And they were all there having. A few of the cast members were there having dinner, and I don't see now I'm gonna get in trouble.
Doug Buden
No, no, don't get yourself in trouble, because I'm in trouble with Bravo right now, too.
Shannon Beador
You are?
Doug Buden
Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
Why?
Doug Buden
Because I think that's why they're. They're giving me a hard time with guests.
Teresa Migas
Yeah, they said no to.
Doug Buden
I know why they're mad at me, but I'm afraid to bring it up.
Shannon Beador
Well, don't. Do not.
Doug Buden
I know exactly what I said. I know exactly why they're mad.
Shannon Beador
Can I say I'll just.
Doug Buden
I gotta do damage control.
Shannon Beador
You know what?
Doug Buden
I'm going send a boost.
Shannon Beador
I'm a rule follower, so maybe I'll break a couple right now. Please don't.
Doug Buden
Please don't. No, because if you do it, then they're going to ban every Bravo team.
Shannon Beador
No, no, no, no. This is not. No, I'm okay, by the way. You're going to go. Oh, really? That's what you were talking about? No, it's a. I went to the dinner after the reunion, and I. I thought that there were going to be times where I could address things because typically you have a package for each person and they show your, you know, your arc of what you went through. But it was different this time, so I didn't get to bring up certain things. So when I said hello to Heather at the restaurant, I said, I just want to let you know, it really hurt my feelings to know that you went out to dinner after that finale party with John. You know, I thought that we were okay and to know that you were, like, going out. And then she said, well, he. That's when she told me that he.
Doug Buden
Said he admitted that he heard the accident, and we know he's admitted publicly since then. Or is this just hearsay?
Shannon Beador
I don't know. He did an Entertainment Tonight interview yesterday. I didn't. Did you hear it?
Jeff Lewis
I didn't hear it. I was with you.
Doug Buden
Yeah, I don't know.
Jeff Lewis
So from what we heard, though, he said to Heather that he did.
Doug Buden
This is hearsay.
Shannon Beador
No. And Tamara.
Jeff Lewis
Okay, but again, that we're.
Doug Buden
Unless we hear it come out of his mouth.
Shannon Beador
Well, I. I spoke to Bryce, who interviewed him yesterday. He called me to just let me know that the interview was coming out.
Jeff Lewis
So we'll have to take a loose.
Doug Buden
Bryce?
Shannon Beador
Bryce Sander from Entertainment Tonight.
Doug Buden
Oh, okay.
Shannon Beador
Yeah. So. And. And John knows him because, of course, I introduced him and I guess John requested him to do the interview. So Bryce did tell me that he said a few things. He said that he didn't realize the cost of things. See, I could be.
Jeff Lewis
Well, that's the other thing is if you haven't seen the interview, it's not good.
Shannon Beador
Well, I'm going to listen. I'm going to listen at the break when we do a.
Doug Buden
Okay.
Shannon Beador
When we do our little dance moves.
Doug Buden
Okay, so let me ask you this, because I will. That just really upset you and put you on the attack if you listen to his.
Shannon Beador
I don't care. Yeah, like, do your interview, whatever you need to say, and then go away. I paid you your money. Go away. I don't want to talk about you anymore.
Doug Buden
The number that kept getting thrown around was 75,000, but I noticed from your Insta story that you paid 60, so. And then Alexis had said that Johnny gave you a discount. I'm just curious, how did you guys come to the 60,000?
Shannon Beador
I wasn't going. I wasn't going to go a dollar or above.
Jeff Lewis
Okay, you said, I'll pay.
Shannon Beador
And by the way, his attorney.
Doug Buden
Is she close enough to the mic?
Shannon Beador
Her attorney his attorney said, can she just go up a couple grand? I go, listen, it's 60 and if he doesn't take that, I'll see you in court.
Doug Buden
Okay. So that was it. You were done. And that was like a one time payment over it.
Shannon Beador
Lump sums.
Doug Buden
Because they kept talking about payment plans and all of that.
Shannon Beador
I guess, I think probably the first time we came to them with a. With an offer. He did do a payment plan. Yeah, but you always know that the first offer you're going to make isn't going to be the one they take. Oh, that rhymes.
Doug Buden
I will say though, that facelift, it's really settled and it looks so good.
Shannon Beador
No, I just got thermage.
Doug Buden
What's that?
Shannon Beador
It's like something that hurts thermage. And then I got clear and brilliant. Laser. I don't know.
Teresa Migas
Thermostat, tightening treatment.
Shannon Beador
Is that what it is?
Teresa Migas
I'm signing up.
Shannon Beador
Oh, okay. Yeah.
Doug Buden
Well, I didn't see the reunion live. And I actually didn't even the third part. I didn't watch it the night of. So in the morning, I was on my way to Vile Files and I called you.
Shannon Beador
I know.
Doug Buden
And because were you the one that told me? You told me in the morning on the way to work.
Shannon Beador
And by the way, Vile Files, I love them.
Doug Buden
So do I.
Jeff Lewis
That's a podcast.
Doug Buden
A big podcast.
Shannon Beador
Yeah, my kids were like, mom, you're gonna meet Nick. But I said, I thought it was Vialli.
Doug Buden
He likes you. Nick likes you.
Shannon Beador
Oh, he's so great. Yeah.
Jeff Lewis
Is that his name? Vile?
Shannon Beador
Yeah, Nick Vile. So then I texted him yesterday and I said, omg, that Jeff Lewis clip. And then his response was, which one?
Doug Buden
Yeah. Yeah, I liked them a lot. I felt too comfortable, I think.
Jeff Lewis
Yeah, I was like, that's a problem.
Shannon Beador
That's what happens to people born on March 24th.
Oscar
Did invite them to see Wicked too.
Shannon Beador
