• Jeff relates with a family anecdote about insurance companies exploiting technicalities to avoid paying like needing elusive documents (“They’re using every little bit of... Finding reasons not to pay.” – Jeff, 03:51).
• Discussion touches on the stress and emotional exhaustion of fighting for insurance claims, reinforcing how even the wealthy aren’t immune to red tape.

Consumer Culture: From Birkin Bags to Trader Joe's Totes (04:35–07:04)

• Sutton delights in a luxury bargain—a $2,500 sweater bought for $700 at a consignment store—and jokes about swapping her Birkin bags for cult-favorite Trader Joe’s mini totes.
• The crew riffs on the phenomenon of affordable, everyday items becoming status symbols (“We have to create something that is so stupid and make it seem...very exclusive” – Michael, 05:39).

Fan Social & The Housewife Hustle (06:05–07:11)

• Sutton is encouraged to join (“People will pay to go to Trivia Night with you...Big night.” – Keon, 07:11), but she jokes she'd rather do it for free.

Selling the House & Real Estate Realities (07:20–18:01)

• Sutton is selling her LA house after her kids left for college, explaining the need for a downsized space and sharing her attachments (“I put a lot of money. I put a lot of time and love into it, and I love it. My hydrangeas.” – Sutton, 13:12).
• They debate safety, disclosure duties post-robbery, the logic of open houses for luxury homes, and the anxiety of possible new theft during showings.

Family Updates and the Vow of Poverty (08:08–14:44)

• Sutton provides candid updates on her kids—one transferring to NYU, another pursuing law, and notably, her son Philip deciding to enter the seminary (“He wants to be a priest.” – Sutton, 09:20).
• The group jokes about priestly celibacy and vows of poverty, with memorable banter:
  • “Oh, I would be celibate before Poor, Yeah.” – Jeff, 10:19

On Brand Partnerships & Fashion Perks (36:34–38:18)

Relationship Therapy & Pen Pal Revelations (39:23–45:31)

• Michael Beck shares about starting premarital counseling with his partner, which devolves into personal emotional disclosures—seven out of eight sessions end with him crying.
• In a standout segment, Jeff reveals Michael's “support of prisoners” as pen pals—a hobby that elicits uproarious group reactions and curious questions about how this hobby works (“You send money to prisoners in hopes…of sleeping with them when they get out?” – Jeff, 41:01).

Vegas Woes & Travel Upgrades (46:42–47:44)

• Michael confesses to losing substantial sums gambling in Vegas, which derails their plan to upgrade to better seats on an upcoming London flight (“I lost so much money...that wheel of fortune got me.” – Michael, 47:01).

Ear Piercing Protocols & Parenting Milestones (25:32–27:32, 31:34–32:04)

• Jeff discusses his daughter’s milestone—wanting her ears pierced—seeks advice, and receives a warning that the fancy earrings he buys can't be used right away (a fact that surprises him: “So the earrings that I buy the first day, we cannot use?” – Jeff, 26:19).
• Discussion revolves around parenting strategies as children become teens, and how to remain a united front post-divorce.

[Jeff Lewis]

For the last is a decade, you've been covering disasters. That's right. That's why he's here.

[Sutton Stracke]

The math ain't mathin' and the gay ain't gayin'.

[Jeff Lewis]

Later, you're gonna need to do maintenance.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Why? To be attractive. For who?

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, for us.

[Sutton Stracke]

Jeff Lewis has issues.

[Jeff Lewis]

Hey, welcome to Jeff Lewis Has Issues. In today's episode, Sutton Strack and Michael Beck join the show. We talk about insurance claims, prison pen pals, and undelightful plane seats. Good morning.

[Sutton Stracke]

Good morning.

[Jeff Lewis]

You look so cute today, Sutton. I'm glad you just made the picture.

[Sutton Stracke]

I did.

[Jeff Lewis]

Sutton is usually late, and so what happens is we have to look for something on the Internet. A picture.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, that's how I do it because I like to see what you're gonna put up there. Cause it's always good.

[Jeff Lewis]

We try to find the most flattering photos.

[Michael Beck]

Yes, I'm sure she's late on purpose.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I've got to tell you, I was just in London last week and so I go to this one consignment store that I love in part of my sustainability and, you know, is shopping. Yes, but so I got that at my consignment shop.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wait, you got that sweater at the consignment shop? Yeah, it looks brand new.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, how much? Circular fashion people.

[Jeff Lewis]

How much did you pay for that? I know that's rude.

[Sutton Stracke]

It's like 700.

[Jeff Lewis]

How much does it retail for?

[Sutton Stracke]

Probably like 3,000. No, maybe like 2,500.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, that's a good deal. Now I like your Birkin. I'm surprised that didn't get stolen.

[Sutton Stracke]

Also, that one was with me.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, so it's the it's the only one that survives.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I had. Had like three with me.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, do you normally travel with three bags?

[Sutton Stracke]

It was. It was Bravocon.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, it was Bravocon. You had three of your bags.

[Sutton Stracke]

Good looks.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Looks.

[Jeff Lewis]

Was that like a. I imagine that was a big insurance claim.

[Sutton Stracke]

God.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Are we still.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes, it was.

[Jeff Lewis]

Because you never gave me a number. So I'm just going to keep asking.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, it was. It was like 800. Wow. Yeah. But I haven't gotten any money back yet.

[Jeff Lewis]

Nothing.

[Sutton Stracke]

At this point, I'm like, I don't even care.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, really?

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I do, but it's like, I don't want to fight with it. It's just.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're gonna have to sue them.

[Keon]

Put a lot of energy in you.

[Jeff Lewis]

Ultimately, they're gonna. Nobody's paying. You're gonna have to sue them eventually.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So I was. We were talking to my dad about this over the weekend. Was it farmers? They're suing.

[Keon]

I didn't hear this.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't know. I don't want to say the wrong insurance company, but they. They had a fire at one of their apartment buildings, and it was two years ago. They paid out a little bit in the beginning, and then they just stopped paying. So thank God my parents had the money to finish the building, but now they have to sue the insurance company to get the rest of the money.

[Sutton Stracke]

That happens a lot.

[Michael Beck]

Why did they stop paying?

[Jeff Lewis]

They were saying it's ridiculous. It's like technicalities, like, oh, you need rental agreements from this person and that person, and they can't find the rental agreements. They don't have the rental agreements. And it's like they're using every little bit of.

[Keon]

They're finding reasons.

[Jeff Lewis]

Finding reasons not to pay for.

[Sutton Stracke]

They don't want to give the money up, you know?

[Jeff Lewis]

No.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

I'm very excited on my way here, driving.

[Jeff Lewis]

You have to sue them.

[Sutton Stracke]

I'll sue them. I'll sue them.

[Jeff Lewis]

You really do?

[Sutton Stracke]

I'll sue them for you.

[Jeff Lewis]

So you haven't got them. You haven't got a dollar? No, because see, it's also going to be public, which is going to.

[Sutton Stracke]

I know. And that's why I don't want to.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, that's why you want to do it, because that's why they should settle beforehand before it becomes public, because the damage it will do to their reput is worse than the claim.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, I have a really good insurance company, so it's gonna be fine, but it takes a while.

[Michael Beck]

But she doesn't care about the 800,000. It's too much to even think about.

[Jeff Lewis]

You know what I mean?

[Sutton Stracke]

It's kissed me so much.

[Michael Beck]

Let it go.

[Keon]

She's changed. Changing her name.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't think. You don't care about the 800. I just don't think you. It sounds like you're not up to the fight.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes. Just, you know, but listen.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

On the way here, we passed and there was this big line of people on the sidewalk. And now I'm very excited about this. I'm late to the party. They're all there for the Trader Joe bags, see? Do y' all know about this?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, we sure do. I don't see the appeal.

[Sutton Stracke]

On the way home, I'm like, we're stopping and I'm getting one.

[Melissa]

These would be the mini totes.

[Sutton Stracke]

I'm assuming these are the mini totes. I have never even seen these, so. I saw them. I have one, and you do. They're so cute.

[Jeff Lewis]

They're so cute. How'd you get it? Did you wait in line?

[Sutton Stracke]

No, they dropped today. I like that I'm using these words like drop. They drop today.

[Keon]

Are those.

[Sutton Stracke]

That's what Brian who does them. Isn't that cute? Well, I'm racing.

[Melissa]

This is the summer drop. They're pastels, and they have stripes on them, which they don't usually.

[Sutton Stracke]

They're so cute.

[Jeff Lewis]

How much are they?

[Melissa]

I have no idea. They're like three bucks. They're not expensive.

[Jeff Lewis]

See, that's why people are so into it, because it's. They're so cheap.

[Keon]

They're like, $2.99.

[Jeff Lewis]

Right?

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, well, I didn't even know about them, so now I just want to have one. I'm gonna replace my Birkins with Trader Joe's.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, you're gonna have to. If you don't get that insurance claim,

[Michael Beck]

it just goes to show you that you have to. We have to create something that is so stupid and make it seem fansocial.co. oh, that's right.

[Jeff Lewis]

Like a Labubu.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah. And just make people wait in line for it and make it seem like it's, like, very exclusive, and then we get it.

[Sutton Stracke]

I'll give you a report back on this.

[Keon]

We should stage chumps have chumps, like, wait in line. Make it, like a whole, like, media thing.

[Michael Beck]

Yes, yes.

[Keon]

And then it's.

[Jeff Lewis]

What's going on with fansocial. You need to upload people. I keep talking to people that want to. Want to be on the website.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, I'm actually. I'm doing that today. I'll Be completely honest. I don't know anything about computers. And Shannon tried to tell me. Shannon tried to tell me everything, how to do everything. She sent me a whole thing. She's out with the baby. I've done so many things wrong. I'm paying people money that they don't deserve, and I don't know, it's a mess.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's because our partner on Fan Social is out on maternity leave. How long has she been out? How long does she need?

[Michael Beck]

She just had the baby.

[Jeff Lewis]

When?

[Keon]

Probably three weeks ago.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, she just had the baby three weeks ago.

[Jeff Lewis]

Is that time to acclimate?

[Michael Beck]

I'm going to take. I'm going to take care of it. I'm going to get on it. We've been getting a lot of bookings.

[Jeff Lewis]

Sarah Colonna wants to join, which I do think. I do think she's become popular enough now where she could become a good earner for us.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, we just have a minimum.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know that's shocking to you.

[Michael Beck]

We have a minimum now, you know, and it's like if somebody wants to book her for a couple hundred bucks, it's just not worth our time.

[Jeff Lewis]

Is that what you think she's worth?

[Michael Beck]

Well, that's what they're offering.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, she's worth more than that.

[Michael Beck]

I agree.

[Jeff Lewis]

But, yeah, I think she's worth more than.

[Sutton Stracke]

Y' all are such pimps.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Unidentified Guest]

Yeah, we are.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, like, seriously, this is.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you want to join Fan Social? Have you done it yet?

[Sutton Stracke]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's good money.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Keon]

People will pay to go to Trivia Night with you. Big night.

[Sutton Stracke]

That's so crazy. But I'll just do it for free.

[Keon]

Don't. No, you'll do it for $1,000.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Now what's happening? You're selling the house. Finally put the house on the market. Now, are you gonna have to disclose the robbery? Cause I won't say anything.

[Sutton Stracke]

Sounds like you will, you know. Okay.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I mean, yeah, the house got broken into.

[Jeff Lewis]

Half the houses in LA got broken into.

[Sutton Stracke]

Exactly. Like, you can't. That can't be a deterrent. You know, I have felt very safe in my house. It took me a couple of months, but I feel very safe now.

[Jeff Lewis]

But you also beefed up on the security.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah. So the. You know, it's just. I feel okay. It's just I am in that house all by myself now, and my children have not. They don't come home. You know, they're all on the east coast and, like, nobody came home for Christmas. No one's coming home. This Summer, I think my youngest son, James, has to. Cause he's got to, like, get some clothes. He's transferring to.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, he did transfer to New York University. New York? I thought he was going to Texas.

[Sutton Stracke]

He decided to go to nyu, so he'll need. Yeah, it's gonna be fun. My daughter still, she's got one year left of law school, so she's applying for jobs now to be an attorney.

[Jeff Lewis]

Will James live in your apartment?

[Sutton Stracke]

Hell, no. He is in my apartment right now. He has an internship, and so we've been roommates and. No, he needs to get out. He needs to go live with his friends downtown, close to nyu, because he's

[Jeff Lewis]

messy, but it sounds like you don't even want these kids home.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, I do. I love it.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, you just said he's got to

[Sutton Stracke]

get out of my apartment. Yes, as a college student. I don't need to live with a college student.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

He needs to go be with his college friends and be nasty boys together.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Melissa]

Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

They eat stuff. He eats nasty stuff. At, like, 2 in the morning, I wake up at all the bags. I can't take it.

[Jeff Lewis]

Where does your daughter go to school?

[Sutton Stracke]

She's at Brooklyn Law.

[Jeff Lewis]

I see. Okay, so everybody's over there now. What about Philip? He just graduated military school.

[Sutton Stracke]

He just graduated from the Citadel in May. Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

And I heard he wants to be a priest.

[Sutton Stracke]

He wants to be a priest.

[Jeff Lewis]

So he's going to go into the seminary.

[Michael Beck]

Wow.

[Jeff Lewis]

Did you see that coming?

[Sutton Stracke]

No, I cried when he told me it was, you know. That's such a big decision. But it's a six year. You're in seminary school for six years, and then you become a deacon of the church, and then you join the priesthood.

[Michael Beck]

Do you still have to be abstinent?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

To be a priest, you still have to be abstinent.

[Sutton Stracke]

You are not sure.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm sure they masturbate.

[Keon]

That's like the number.

[Sutton Stracke]

They're not supposed to masturbate.

[Michael Beck]

They are. No, that's crazy.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm sure they do.

[Keon]

I'm sure they do.

[Jeff Lewis]

And they probably watch porn.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, my God.

[Jeff Lewis]

Hey, Michael, what did the priest say to the other priest as they walked into the orphanage? Let us pray.

[Sutton Stracke]

I don't get it.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, we don't need to get it.

[Melissa]

No one needs to get it. Let's just move past this.

[Keon]

So he's gonna grow up with you as his mother and then take a vow of poverty? Like, that's crazy to me.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, my God. Poverty?

[Keon]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, I would be celibate before Poor, Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

Celibate is one thing. I'll give up poverty. No.

[Unidentified Guest]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Keon]

White Lotus. When the daughter saw how the monks live and then turned right around.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, you're right. He's gonna last.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, he did say, you know, he's like, if it doesn't work out, I can leave. Which I thought was a good, positive outlook on it, because you learn a lot in seminary. It's very. It's school, you know, it's like graduate school.

[Jeff Lewis]

How old is he?

[Sutton Stracke]

He's 22.

[Jeff Lewis]

He needs a girlfriend.

[Sutton Stracke]

He's so cute, too, you know, he's tall. He's tall and handsome, but he's very devout.

[Michael Beck]

Has he ever had a girlfriend?

[Melissa]

Mm.

[Sutton Stracke]

He has had a girlfriend his senior year in high school, and he had a few in college.

[Michael Beck]

Wow.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

I mean, I think it's fascinating.

[Melissa]

I don't know.

[Jeff Lewis]

I mean, it's kind of noble.

[Sutton Stracke]

It's very noble. So he's gonna be in Baltimore.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Keon]

Wow.

[Sutton Stracke]

So they're all three.

[Jeff Lewis]

So he's done this. He's.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

He gave him the deposit.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, he gave him. We. Yeah, we don't have to pay for it. That's amazing.

[Jeff Lewis]

No tuition?

[Sutton Stracke]

No. He's at the seminary now in Charleston, and with the diocese there, he.

[Michael Beck]

I need to rewind. What is the point of the celibacy? Like, what? Maybe this is a dumb question, but why? Why? Why?

[Jeff Lewis]

You could never do why?

[Michael Beck]

No sex.

[Keon]

Can't get married, and so they can't have. So there's no sex.

[Sutton Stracke]

I don't think that's why. Okay, I'm gonna just speculate.

[Michael Beck]

Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

So don't get mad at me, everybody, if I'm wrong, but I think priests are to be like Christ Jesus, and so Jesus wasn't married and he didn't do that stuff.

[Michael Beck]

You're telling me Jesus Christ never got it in. In all those years?

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, when I met him.

[Jeff Lewis]

Michael, please be careful. Please be careful.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, you know, that's what. That's the whole thing.

[Michael Beck]

You're on the right track. Jesus always looked at the church as his wife, and that's why priests are celibate.

[Sutton Stracke]

Okay. See?

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, that's a nice way of looking at it.

[Sutton Stracke]

You're married.

[Jeff Lewis]

What did Justin say? What did Justin say to you yesterday, Kian? Justin's our bookkeeper. Accountant.

[Melissa]

Yeah, He's a Christian accountant.

[Jeff Lewis]

And he turned to me and he

[Melissa]

said, you know, what's a Christian accountant? I don't even consider myself a US Citizen.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm a citizen of Christ oh, that's. I mean, that's commitment.

[Keon]

What does that mean?

[Sutton Stracke]

It's like one in the spirit.

[Michael Beck]

I don't know.

[Jeff Lewis]

I think he means first and foremost.

[Keon]

I feel like it means he's not going to pay his taxes. He's going to give all his money to the church instead.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, God.

[Keon]

That's what I'm.

[Jeff Lewis]

I did ask. He gives 10%.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

I was like, can you afford that?

[Sutton Stracke]

That's tithing.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, yeah, he does 10%. And I was. But I want to know if. Is it gross or net or what is it? Hopefully it's net and not gross.

[Michael Beck]

I was thinking we should have chumps tithed to you.

[Jeff Lewis]

I like that idea. Starting with Sutton.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

I want 10% of that insurance claim to start.

[Keon]

Good luck.

[Jeff Lewis]

So where are we going? We're going to sell this. It is a big house. You spent a lot of money on that house.

[Sutton Stracke]

I did. I put a lot of money. I put a lot of time and love into it, and I love it. My hydrangeas.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't know about the love, but you put a lot of money in it.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, well, you know, the caring is nice, too, but I don't know.

[Jeff Lewis]

Take care of it.

[Sutton Stracke]

I think I just. My life. I have, like, different lifestyles. So I have a lifestyle in Los Angeles, have a lifestyle in New York, and then I have a lifestyle in the South. Like, those are my little.

[Jeff Lewis]

You know what that means? She's fucking three guys. Oh, that's what that means.

[Melissa]

Right?

[Jeff Lewis]

That's code. I have a lifestyle here, and I have a lifestyle that.

[Michael Beck]

Sure.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I told you I was a sailor the last time. So, you know, I kind of want my LA life to be, you know, very single woman, you know, so not complicated. Not complicated. And sexy and fun and that's a lot of houses. A turnkey out. So when I go to New York, it's just easy to get out. It's not. I'm not worried about the house all the time.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. So where do you see yourself landing? Will you be in a condo, townhouse situation or more of a. Just a smaller home.

[Sutton Stracke]

I kind of. I looked at some condominiums. They're kind of nice. The condominiums. I just have my dogs.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes. And you like to entertain? I mean, I do. I like part of your party.

[Sutton Stracke]

But see, my entertaining could get a little different, if you know what I mean.

[Jeff Lewis]

Your backyard parties are fun. I feel like you need a home.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

But maybe it's just not something as big.

[Sutton Stracke]

Maybe it's just not as big. Or maybe it's newer because my house is old. My house in Augusta was built in 1880.

[Melissa]

Wow.

[Sutton Stracke]

So every time I turn around, something's wrong with it. I just want kind of easier here.

[Michael Beck]

We would do the same if we could go back to apartment living. Like, after this. After this house, I would like to

[Jeff Lewis]

go back to you and Austin.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, we just. We moved into like a big house that's like four bedrooms plus a guest house, plus a big bedroom. It's just so much upkeep and we're both so busy.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

Like, it's great and we love it, but I. It was just so easy living in a nice building and there's a doorman and it's just. It's all taken care of.

[Sutton Stracke]

One of these places has like a dog walk, dog park in the back.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, so you've already looked?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So are you gonna rent until you find something?

[Sutton Stracke]

Probably.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, good. Yeah, I think you should.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah. Cause I, you know, I don't wanna jump into anything.

[Michael Beck]

You gotta make sure you can film there. That's the biggest thing. Cause people keep moving and then they keep moving into places that are not film friendly.

[Jeff Lewis]

You thought of that, right?

[Sutton Stracke]

I did. You know, Heather Dubrow and I have talked about it. She wants me to be her neighbor.

[Melissa]

Oh, yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

So I like that.

[Keon]

They love their building.

[Sutton Stracke]

I know. I said I'm gonna look. I love Sierra Towers.

[Jeff Lewis]

Me too.

[Sutton Stracke]

I think that's the sexiest.

[Jeff Lewis]

But not with the dogs.

[Sutton Stracke]

But the dogs. It's too small.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. No, no, you can't do that. Yeah, I think small house. Beverly Hills flats or Trousdale.

[Sutton Stracke]

I would love to look in the Trousdale.

[Michael Beck]

So cool.

[Sutton Stracke]

Or the flats.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, that's what I'm thinking for you. And maybe 4,000ft, 4,500. Smaller lot, like, you know, it'd be perfect as Tracy Tudor's house.

[Keon]

Oh, it's so cool.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's perfect. She did such a great job. She's right in the flats too. Well, she can, but the problem is she wants to. She's gonna want too much money for that house. Can we spend more than the 8.9 that you're asking for your home? No shit. Why?

[Sutton Stracke]

Because what I also want to do is buy a beach house in South Carolina.

[Jeff Lewis]

You didn't tell us that.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I'm telling.

[Jeff Lewis]

What's that gonna set us back? But, like, we need that insurance money.

[Sutton Stracke]

Those are expensive too.

[Michael Beck]

The Charleston beach house, the.

[Sutton Stracke]

On Sullivan's. I was just there for a month and I'm just like.

[Michael Beck]

It calls to my heart, they're super expensive.

[Sutton Stracke]

They're expensive.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's like the new Hamptons, right?

[Sutton Stracke]

I've looked at a couple, and those are like four or five. And those aren't even the ones that I like. The ones that are 10.

[Jeff Lewis]

Shit.

[Keon]

Me too.

[Sutton Stracke]

Philip. Maybe Philip will buy a house for me since he has to give all his money away.

[Michael Beck]

They don't make a lot of money.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, you're right. You should say that to him since, you know, since you're taking the vow of poverty. If you could just wire me your trust.

[Michael Beck]

Does he still get another trust?

[Sutton Stracke]

Okay, but wait a minute. So Porter is. That's what she wants to get into? Like, that kind of law, which is very. It's like soap opera y. When people fight over wills and family law.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, I know.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, the wills and trust.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, that's good.

[Sutton Stracke]

I had just heard about the family in Texas. Have you heard about this case?

[Keon]

No.

[Unidentified Guest]

No. Yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

Do you know, this is so good. So I sent it to Porter because I'm like, this is gonna be so cool. I can't wait for you to practice this kind of law. It was Mary Kay's son and daughter in law.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

And they had children. And I guess the son said the grandson is now suing his stepmother because father passed away because they were dipping into his trust.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wait, both parents were? Or just the stepmother and the stepmom? Allegedly, they were dipping into his trust.

[Sutton Stracke]

Apparently.

[Jeff Lewis]

That's what we're going to do to Phillips.

[Sutton Stracke]

See, I could do Phillips trust, and then I just use it all.

[Jeff Lewis]

And then you know what? Your daughter can defend you. This is a perfect situation.

[Keon]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

This is how I'm feeling. This should go.

[Jeff Lewis]

If Monroe had a trust, I would dip into it.

[Sutton Stracke]

It's not legal.

[Michael Beck]

I feel like you already are.

[Sutton Stracke]

It's really not legal to do that.

[Michael Beck]

Gage definitely is.

[Jeff Lewis]

Now, do you. Have you had any bites on the house yet?

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, we had an open house on Sunday. Thank the Lord. I was out in town.

[Jeff Lewis]

You did an open house?

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, Josh Flag is doing this.

[Jeff Lewis]

Are you kidding me? With all your nice clothes and shoes and. Do they lock the closet?

[Sutton Stracke]

No, you have to go into the closet. That's like a.

[Jeff Lewis]

This is what people do. They steal on the. I can't believe he's doing open house.

[Michael Beck]

Beverly Hills is the reason that Bravo's being so crazy about all these houses. They're gonna make us start showing fake houses now because all of you are getting broken into. It's too much.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, so we did that, and then somebody looked at it yesterday, and then there's another appointment coming up.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're gonna have another insurance claim soon if you keep doing these open houses. People just help themselves.

[Sutton Stracke]

I think we need to do another open house.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't think I would. You do brokers open. But I wouldn't do an open house.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, okay. Broke. I'll tell Josh that we need to do a broker's open.

[Jeff Lewis]

And let me ask you something. Did Josh sit the open, or did he put someone else there?

[Sutton Stracke]

I am not gonna disclose.

[Jeff Lewis]

He put someone else there. Was someone else there. I like Josh, too, but that's what these agents do. They put someone else there on Sunday, and I don't. I just don't think it's a good idea unless. Did you have security? How many people did you have? Did you have.

[Sutton Stracke]

I wasn't there.

[Jeff Lewis]

So you don't know if there's someone upstairs, downstairs?

[Keon]

They could still be in the house?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

Do they go through your drawers and, like, look in your drawers?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, they do. Oh, for sure they look in the drawers?

[Unidentified Guest]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

They take medications.

[Melissa]

What?

[Michael Beck]

Yep.

[Jeff Lewis]

All your antidepressants are probably gone.

[Sutton Stracke]

The beta blockers. I've been reading all about these beta blockers. I didn't know what that was until all that.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, Mimi in New Orleans. Okay, that's just not going to help our case. Mimi.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, she's.

[Jeff Lewis]

Hi, Mimi.

[Michael Beck]

Hi.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, I know. Shout out, Shane.

[Keon]

Shout out.

[Jeff Lewis]

Mimi, what's your comment?

[Sutton Stracke]

My comment is that Sutton's son does not have to give up poverty if he becomes a diocesan priest. That's different from being a secular priest, where they actually do have poverty. Right. That's the step two.

[Jeff Lewis]

Is he doing secular?

[Sutton Stracke]

No, he wants to be a priest.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay, but what's a. Just a.

[Sutton Stracke]

They can also get married when you're a gift.

[Jeff Lewis]

So, Mimi, he does not have to give up his wealth. And he could still get married. Yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, can't get married. Yeah. Deacons can. Deacons can. Yes. Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. How do we become a deacon?

[Keon]

That's like a step below priests, right?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, so he's gonna be a deacon.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, that would be.

[Keon]

No, he wants to be a priest.

[Sutton Stracke]

He wants to be a priest. Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

All right. But we gotta make sure that he's not a secular priest, because we don't. Oh, we do want him to be a secular priest.

[Sutton Stracke]

I have no idea. I want him to live his life.

[Jeff Lewis]

Well, if we want that, and I'll take his trust, we're gonna need to. Yeah, we're gonna need to. Dip into that trust, because I think you're gonna have to spend. Thank you so much, Mimi.

[Sutton Stracke]

Thanks, Mimi.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're gonna have to spend 10 million on a house here.

[Sutton Stracke]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

5 million on a house at the beach. Why do we need the Georgia house anymore?

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, my Augusta house.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. Do we need that?

[Sutton Stracke]

Not getting rid of that.

[Michael Beck]

It's a lot of overhead.

[Unidentified Guest]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, my God, it is a lot. But she's doing well with real House, with the Beverly Hills.

[Melissa]

Right.

[Jeff Lewis]

Was that picked up yet, Michael? It's a lot of sheets, officially.

[Michael Beck]

I don't know. I'm sure it's coming back. I mean, it's one of the highest rated shows on Bravo. If not the highest rated.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you have any idea if it's been picked up?

[Sutton Stracke]

I'm assuming so.

[Jeff Lewis]

So that's a yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

But I don't. I haven't gotten a contract, so I always kind of, you know, knock on wood.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, shit. They're not asking you back.

[Michael Beck]

I would wait to buy a house then.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. Yes, definitely. Don't buy anything yet.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah. Hold up.

[Melissa]

Y' all are kidd.

[Jeff Lewis]

It wouldn't be. No. Child support's up now. Huh? No more child support.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, but that was just, you know, that was a little icing.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, I know, but still, we like the icing. So James is how old now?

[Sutton Stracke]

Support. That's.

[Jeff Lewis]

James is how old?

[Sutton Stracke]

James is 19.

[Jeff Lewis]

Shit. So you lost your child support a year ago?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, God.

[Sutton Stracke]

But you know what? It starts the way they do it. Like, when I had all three children, it was this amount. And then when the first child leaves, drops considerably.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, really?

[Sutton Stracke]

So then by the time you just have that, the last child, you know,

[Jeff Lewis]

it just pays your cell phone bill? Yeah, at that point.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah. It's like I pay for his ubereats.

[Jeff Lewis]

So alimony, does that come for life?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So then why are you working so hard, like, pushing all these sustainable circular brands?

[Sutton Stracke]

Cause it's fun.

[Michael Beck]

I do have a question, though. What if something happened to his, like, work and he wasn't making the same amount he was making? Does yours?

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, he has to. He's obligated to.

[Michael Beck]

Oh, he's obligated to make that money forever?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes. Oh, because he makes a lot of money. So I'm sure he's put stuff aside.

[Jeff Lewis]

I mean, you know, he can't scale back. Meaning you can't be like, I'm gonna work part time.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, he could, but he still has to pay me the same. I work full time still for him with my spousal support for the rest

[Michael Beck]

of your life, you get that money.

[Jeff Lewis]

God, that's a good deal. How long were you married?

[Sutton Stracke]

17 years.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. You deserve it.

[Keon]

Is he still dating your friend?

[Jeff Lewis]

He was gonna marry you, right?

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, I don't know.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, shit. We were not supposed to talk about that.

[Keon]

Oh, really?

[Jeff Lewis]

You didn't tell us there was. That was off limits.

[Keon]

I didn't. I just.

[Sutton Stracke]

I just think out of respect, it's fine. And it's not like a juicy cop, you know? There's nothing to it.

[Jeff Lewis]

I understood. We don't want to cause any problems between you and your ex.

[Michael Beck]

Is your ex still dating your ex?

[Jeff Lewis]

As far as I know, yes.

[Michael Beck]

Yes. Okay.

[Jeff Lewis]

And I hope they're happy.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Because if he's happy, he's nicer to me.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, exactly.

[Jeff Lewis]

So that's what I prefer right now. He must be happy because he's being very nice to me.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

So I hope it stays that way.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

And I do think he was. It was a correlation with when I paid the child support early. I think that has something to do with it. So I paid it even earlier.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh.

[Jeff Lewis]

Because I was. I was being a bitch. So I was waiting till, like, the day it was due or two days later.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Just so it. Just to make him sweat. And then I was in a good mood, so I paid him two weeks early. And he was very. He was. He's never thanked me for anything in seven years. And he was like, thank you so much for sending that early. So then this last month, I sent it on the 8th. I sent it real early.

[Melissa]

Oh.

[Michael Beck]

Oh, my gosh.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yep. So you're just being. I'm playing nice.

[Sutton Stracke]

But how many years do you have left? Like.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, forever. My kid's only nine years old.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

She'll be ten. Eight.

[Sutton Stracke]

So. Yeah. You have eight years.

[Michael Beck]

So much better when you guys are nice to each other. Don't you think it's.

[Jeff Lewis]

Of course I don't want to fight.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah. So much better.

[Jeff Lewis]

And even yesterday, we were talking about, like, the tutors, and there's one that I don't love. There's one that I love. And I was kind of just telling him, this is what I think we should do. I mean, he was very. I mean, I've never. He usually just wants to fight, argue. It doesn't matter what I say.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

But we actually had a real rational, reasonable conversation. He didn't. And I was being a little crazy, and I feel like he could have very easily come after me and. You know. But I just get a little emotional about The Tudor. And I was just, like, not thinking things through. And then I'm like, I'm gonna cancel her, and then I'm gonna. And then I'm gonna.

[Sutton Stracke]

I thought you were talking about Tudor houses.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, Tudors. The Tudors.

[Sutton Stracke]

Got it.

[Jeff Lewis]

But long story short, it could have turned into some fights, and it didn't. It didn't.

[Michael Beck]

Do you think you'd ever get to a place where you guys could do, like, holidays together or.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't know about holidays, but I've said to him. Cause I think this is really important to Monroe. Her birthday is in October. She is so dead set to get

[Sutton Stracke]

her ears pierced at 10.

[Jeff Lewis]

Dead. Like, it is happening. Like, I don't even. Like it's just happening. She's made it very clear. So I said it would be nice if we could go together, shop for the earrings, maybe take her to lunch, and then the next day get her ears pierced.

[Sutton Stracke]

Okay, just. I'm gonna tell you something. Porter was allowed to get her ears pierced at 12. Now, when you shop for the earrings.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

Be prepared for this. They cannot put them in their ears because I got her, like, little, teeny, tiny, you know, diamond, whatever that's called when it's, like, crusty.

[Jeff Lewis]

What do you mean? They can't put them in there.

[Sutton Stracke]

They have to use the post that they. It's like a special earring that they use to.

[Michael Beck]

When can they switch it out?

[Sutton Stracke]

It's like, six weeks. So tears.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, wait a minute. So the earrings that I buy the first day, we cannot use?

[Sutton Stracke]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, I didn't know this.

[Sutton Stracke]

I know. That's what I'm telling you.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

These are the ones from Claire. So when they do that, they're gonna do, like, that.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, it's like a special kind.

[Jeff Lewis]

She's very also adamant that they have to do both ears at the exact same time because she's afraid she's gonna. The first one's gonna hurt, and then she won't want to do the other one.

[Keon]

That happened to Michael.

[Michael Beck]

Do you know that actually in Mexican culture, they pierce the ears at, like, two weeks old? My sister was the two weeks old when her ears were pierced with big hoops. Yeah, exactly.

[Sutton Stracke]

JLo Hoops.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah. It's crazy. Little baby with diamonds in her ears.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm hoping we can do this together. I think it would be nice.

[Sutton Stracke]

You know, I've done graduations now I've done three graduate high school graduations, two college graduations. Now, you know, it's nice. I don' twe don't really do, like, Christmas or anything. Yeah, he did come. My ex came over to my house in Augusta for Christmas to drop in. But it's nice to get to a place where, you know, you're friendly.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

And I think it's great for your children to see that.

[Jeff Lewis]

I also think she's gonna give us trouble when she's a teenager, and I think we have to be.

[Sutton Stracke]

Y' all have to be on the same page. Exactly.

[Jeff Lewis]

We're gonna have to be aligned.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

I think that's gonna be real important because I think she's already playing us back and forth, so I want to be able to have an open line of communication. Like, did you know that she. That she said this? So I really. I think that's important as we get into closer to the teenage years. So fingers crossed.

[Michael Beck]

I think you're right. And I think I can see someday where it's, like Gage and Scott, you and Ty, like, all being together and just kind of like, co parenting and co mingling.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes. But we're not gonna. I mean, we're not gonna spend holidays together. We're not gonna travel together. I mean, it's not gonna be.

[Michael Beck]

I mean, don't imagine I say, never say never.

[Jeff Lewis]

I don't. I don't see that happening.

[Sutton Stracke]

Remember I did Philip's 21st birthday in

[Jeff Lewis]

St. Barts, but is that before you found out that it was a friend?

[Sutton Stracke]

No, no, no, no.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

You know, girlfriend was there, and we

[Jeff Lewis]

were all there, but the one that

[Sutton Stracke]

was in different houses. But it was really nice.

[Michael Beck]

It was the girlfriend friend or a different girlfriend.

[Sutton Stracke]

The same girlfriend, so. But it worked. You know it did. It worked because I had my own house.

[Jeff Lewis]

Why was the Sutton Brands not. You had no presence at Gay Pride.

[Sutton Stracke]

Because I was out of town, and I was supposed to be back in town for the parade, so I got my spot for the parade for my truck, and I wasn't here. So. You know my friends in Los Olivos that have the wine.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Sutton Stracke]

I said, why don't y' all take the truck and use it? But then they can't close their wine tasting place to do it, so, you know, it's a.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do you know the name of your friend's wine?

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes, it is S and M also,

[Jeff Lewis]

isn't it Hideaway Low?

[Sutton Stracke]

I think it used to be the Hideaway.

[Keon]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

But they moved locations, and now I think it's S M. Oh, really? Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. You could still find it, though, if you Google Hideaway.

[Keon]

Hideaway Low.

[Jeff Lewis]

They sent me some nice wines.

[Sutton Stracke]

Let me Tell you it's a great experience to go and have a wine tasting. There it is. I'm gonna do one. Maybe sometime this summer.

[Jeff Lewis]

Fan social.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, or just have people come in there.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wine. We could sell, like 10 spots or more.

[Michael Beck]

I just don't know how to upload her to the website. But you can still inquire.

[Jeff Lewis]

People just call you directly to your cell phone.

[Michael Beck]

I'll put out my cell phone number. Give me a ring.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, but, you know, it's such a chic place.

[Melissa]

But.

[Sutton Stracke]

So I was sorry that I wasn't at the parade. You know, I love doing that. And this was the first year, I don't know, in eight years I haven't done it.

[Michael Beck]

The gays were talking about it. They thought you'd become homophobic. They were like, where's Sutton?

[Jeff Lewis]

I see. I thought the gays turned on you. Like, they've turned on me. So I was like, oh, no.

[Sutton Stracke]

And also, I want you to say that I love being in this room full of gay men. It's amazing.

[Keon]

It's a safe space.

[Michael Beck]

We're all gay here, right? Key.

[Keon]

No. Who's not Gayan?

[Michael Beck]

Keyan.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, he's. He hides. He's the accountant.

[Michael Beck]

Do you know that?

[Jeff Lewis]

Like. No, he's not the accountant.

[Sutton Stracke]

He's the Christian. No, he's hiding over there.

[Michael Beck]

The life cycle of Keon's relationship was the start at your Christmas party because he met that girl and. What girl?

[Jeff Lewis]

He met a girl at your party and dated her for how many months?

[Keon]

Five.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Keon]

Five, six months.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. She's a cute girl.

[Michael Beck]

Very cute.

[Jeff Lewis]

But, you know, she wised up and dumped him. Right? Right. Aw, yeah. Sorry, Keon.

[Sutton Stracke]

Well, I'll have another Christmas party for you, Keon.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah.

[Keon]

Have a summer party for a new girlfriend.

[Jeff Lewis]

See, that's why these summer party, the

[Sutton Stracke]

Loiso Levos would be so fun.

[Jeff Lewis]

These parties are important. Yeah, that's why you can't go to a condo. You can't go to a condo.

[Sutton Stracke]

Okay, well, maybe we'll look together.

[Jeff Lewis]

I actually, I love house shopping. I'd love to do that.

[Sutton Stracke]

We should ride bikes and go through the flats.

[Jeff Lewis]

We're gonna see.

[Sutton Stracke]

How fun would that be?

[Jeff Lewis]

I looked. Do you. Can I have tell you I was supposed to be prepping for radio this morning and I was looking for houses for you in the flats. But we gotta spend 9 million on a fixer. No, maybe we'll get it for eight.

[Michael Beck]

No, I would love to see you and Sutton riding bikes around the flats.

[Sutton Stracke]

Doesn't that sound amazing? I really Think we should do that?

[Jeff Lewis]

I mean, maybe seven, but then we're gonna have to put in three.

[Sutton Stracke]

So we're gonna be in it at

[Jeff Lewis]

10, but then it's worth like 13.

[Michael Beck]

Don't listen to him. He will spend millions of dollars on that house renovation.

[Jeff Lewis]

That's why I'm being realistic and I'm saying we're spend 3 million.

[Sutton Stracke]

I know, but I want to buy my Sullivan's island house. That's important to me too.

[Keon]

But then you won't have a house here.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah, but I gotta have a house here too. Look, real estate is.

[Jeff Lewis]

What do you think about a tattoo parlor for Monroe's ears? This is what somebody was saying. What do you think about that for the piercings?

[Michael Beck]

I think they specialized it. Don't go to the mall.

[Sutton Stracke]

I think we went to a doctor.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, you did? Like a plastic surgeon.

[Sutton Stracke]

It was this doctor in New York.

[Melissa]

Or you could go to a jewelry store. Like a real jewelry store.

[Jeff Lewis]

No, but I want to make sure because Leah Black was telling me this. We have to be careful because she's so young and her ears will continue to grow and the lobes and I just worry about the placement.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

What if she wanted those big gauges that had like the big ones?

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, no, no, no. She would go live with Gage if that happened. Yeah, you take your gauge and go to Gage gauges. So many people are focused on where their money is today.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Yes, sir.

[Jeff Lewis]

Pola 2 put together a beautiful dress for you.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

And it was used in the. Was it the opening?

[Keon]

The title.

[Jeff Lewis]

The title.

[Sutton Stracke]

They did the titles and then they did my reunion dress. They did.

[Jeff Lewis]

And they did a very nice job. Now, let me ask you, when they asked, did they approach you to dress you or. They did. So they approached you and they said, we'd love to dress you for the reunion and then for the title sequence shoot. Now, did they then ask you to pay for the fabrics and materials?

[Sutton Stracke]

Not so far.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. And then did they ask you to pay for any of the labor? Did they charge you at all?

[Sutton Stracke]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. Just curious. Okay.

[Sutton Stracke]

But it's so, you know, they're so. They're so fun.

[Jeff Lewis]

Prosecution rests.

[Keon]

Why?

[Sutton Stracke]

Was I gonna get in trouble for that?

[Jeff Lewis]

No, not at all. Not at all. You have a very good arrangement with them. A very. A very generous arrangement.

[Michael Beck]

Let's just say other housewives don't have that.

[Jeff Lewis]

Other housewives have to pay. Oh, so they didn't charge you.

[Sutton Stracke]

You know, and I never do that. I always, you know, I buy all my own clothes. I don't borrow clothes. I don't do that. So that was really a special treat for me.

[Jeff Lewis]

It really was. And they did it two times for you. That's great.

[Michael Beck]

Both free.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yeah.

[Keon]

Beautiful. Wow.

[Sutton Stracke]

I loved my reunion dress. I think. I think he did a beautiful job.

[Jeff Lewis]

I loved the. I thought you look stunning in that title sequence dress. I think you look. But everything was on point, like hair, makeup.

[Sutton Stracke]

I love my glam team, Melissa and Brian. They're here because I haven't seen them in two. We had, like, a reunion this morning. So fun. I just love them. So then I'm making them go to Trader Joe's so we can fight with people for a tote bag.

[Jeff Lewis]

They do a really, really amazing job.

[Sutton Stracke]

You guys will all see the truth.

[Jeff Lewis]

That was Shannon Mador they're doing. They did a dress for Shannon.

[Michael Beck]

Oh.

[Jeff Lewis]

And she got a bill.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, God.

[Michael Beck]

Two bills.

[Sutton Stracke]

Great. Jeff. Just starting trouble.

[Jeff Lewis]

Two bills.

[Michael Beck]

Two bills. One for the material, one for the

[Keon]

you should do the Trader Joe's on Crescent Height and Sunset. That one there's. It's not as crowded as the ones down here. The one down here is crazy.

[Sutton Stracke]

Where's Crescent Height?

[Jeff Lewis]

Why don't you just send someone to stand? You're not gonna stand in line in that outfit with your blue Birkin.

[Sutton Stracke]

How fun would that be, though? Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

She said, where's Crescent Height?

[Jeff Lewis]

No, you know where it is.

[Melissa]

It turns into Laurel Canyon by Chateau Marmont.

[Jeff Lewis]

Laurel Canyon. Laurel Canyon Lake turns into Crescent Heights. You probably don't go south of Melrose or Beverly, but, yes, it goes all the way down.

[Sutton Stracke]

Got it.

[Michael Beck]

Okay.

[Keon]

She has no idea.

[Sutton Stracke]

I know where the Wilshire Country Club is.

[Keon]

Yeah.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes, in Hampton Park.

[Keon]

Not close. Hancock Park.

[Sutton Stracke]

Yes, Hancock Park.

[Jeff Lewis]

Now, is it true? So you've been dating Austin for how long now?

[Michael Beck]

Over a year and a half.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Michael Beck]

Yep.

[Jeff Lewis]

And it's moving kind of quickly. Would you say you moved in together right away?

[Michael Beck]

We moved in together about after a year of dating.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So it's a year and a half. You've been living together for six months? A little longer, yeah.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, a little longer. Why are you asking?

[Jeff Lewis]

So now you're thinking about and really seriously discussing marriage and children, correct?

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, we're discussing it. Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

And then now you are attending premarital counseling.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, we are.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

And you've already had eight sessions.

[Michael Beck]

We have.

[Keon]

Geez, that's a lot.

[Jeff Lewis]

And seven have ended in you crying?

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, no.

[Michael Beck]

Well, yes. I have accidentally hijacked all of our couples counseling. I haven't been.

[Sutton Stracke]

You're using it as your personal therapy.

[Michael Beck]

I have not been to a personal therapist in a long time because I just, like, I'm always on the road. I never have time. And, you know, Austin and I talked about the fact that we want to get married and we want to do premarital counseling together just to kind of make sure, like, we're on the same page and we can communicate well and, you know, talk about conflict together and make sure we're on the same page about kids and all these things.

[Jeff Lewis]

That's because you're rushing it. So you have to do premarital counseling to make sure you're on the same page.

[Michael Beck]

We want a healthy relationship.

[Jeff Lewis]

It is a fast track.

[Michael Beck]

A year and a half together?

[Jeff Lewis]

Most people, yes. You don't even know him yet. Well, he certainly doesn't know you.

[Michael Beck]

That's the point. No, he's learning in therapy.

[Jeff Lewis]

Did you tell him that you send money to prisoners?

[Michael Beck]

He heard. Thank you. Oh, yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So the Only reason he knows is because he heard this show and me talking about it.

[Michael Beck]

Well, that was early on in our relationship. I hadn't gotten there yet. And then you spilled the beans.

[Jeff Lewis]

When were you gonna tell him that you send money to prisoners in hopes

[Michael Beck]

that have sent in hope.

[Jeff Lewis]

Hopes of sleeping with them when they get out?

[Michael Beck]

That is not the case. I want to support them in their journey to getting back on the straight and narrow.

[Melissa]

But.

[Jeff Lewis]

So anyway, go ahead and ask questions, Sutton. They're all good looking. The ones are hot.

[Michael Beck]

It's community service. Sutton.

[Sutton Stracke]

Do you have community service?

[Michael Beck]

No, I do a community service by donating to or used to.

[Sutton Stracke]

Is there an app for it so that you can see the prisoners before

[Michael Beck]

you start to send them away?

[Jeff Lewis]

What's that app again?

[Sutton Stracke]

Shut up.

[Michael Beck]

Idaho, Idaho something. Jameson, what is that?

[Jeff Lewis]

Can we look up. Wait, do you focus on one prison or can we get.

[Michael Beck]

Well, this. Only this one prison has their own Instagram page where you can see and make videos right now.

[Sutton Stracke]

And then do you send them letters?

[Jeff Lewis]

Let's look up hot prisoners.

[Michael Beck]

I only supported one.

[Sutton Stracke]

This could be my new dating site.

[Keon]

Are we kidding?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes.

[Michael Beck]

Yes. They would love you.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh wow. They would love you.

[Sutton Stracke]

Are they inmates?

[Melissa]

Pen pals?

[Jeff Lewis]

Yes, ID inmates.

[Michael Beck]

Look at number two. Wait, who's number two?

[Melissa]

Whoa.

[Jeff Lewis]

Holy shit.

[Sutton Stracke]

I didn't know you could have a cell phone in classroom.

[Melissa]

So prisoner number 135048.

[Keon]

Uh.

[Michael Beck]

Oh, somebody's getting Jeff's paycheck this week.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wow. Okay, I'm gonna Write him down. 1 3.

[Keon]

What is it?

[Melissa]

Are they 135048?

[Jeff Lewis]

Don't say anything to Tyler.

[Michael Beck]

Or what?

[Sutton Stracke]

What are we talking about here?

[Michael Beck]

Across the boards? A little. Some murder, some white collar.

[Melissa]

He's assault, aggravated.

[Jeff Lewis]

That's okay.

[Michael Beck]

You need to be hit.

[Keon]

Road rage incident.

[Jeff Lewis]

What is it? Pen pal, ID inmate. Pen pal. I'm writing this down. Okay. Is that the only prison that offer? I bet there's more prisons.

[Michael Beck]

That's the only one I know.

[Jeff Lewis]

I had no idea why you're not sharing with us.

[Keon]

I'm on writeaprisoner.com and you can look at anything state.

[Jeff Lewis]

I know, but the ones they have shirtless pictures in the other one I didn't.

[Michael Beck]

I've never seen this one. Wait, his photos. This is a little.

[Jeff Lewis]

Do they ever show more than.

[Sutton Stracke]

What does it say? Looking for one.

[Jeff Lewis]

They can't do that.

[Michael Beck]

Look at the. Look at the comment. It says it's interesting talking. Let me know and hit me up. Hey, what's up?

[Sutton Stracke]

I'm 27.

[Michael Beck]

My name's Avery. I'm not looking for nothing serious, but if you're interested in talking, let me know and hit me up.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. He's prisoner 118897, which. Oh, in the same that sentence type.

[Michael Beck]

He's not looking for anything serious.

[Sutton Stracke]

Just he bits at J.

[Keon]

Prison life.

[Michael Beck]

She's gonna have a house in Idaho next time.

[Jeff Lewis]

You had to then explain to Austin because he heard it on the show or did somebody say.

[Michael Beck]

No, he heard. I think somebody told him and he heard it on the show.

[Jeff Lewis]

I'm sorry.

[Michael Beck]

He's like, is this real? And I was like, no, it's all in good fun. It's all being silly, but how much

[Jeff Lewis]

money over the years have you sent to prisoners?

[Michael Beck]

I've only sent to, like, one, and it was just as a funny.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're such a liar.

[Keon]

I swear.

[Jeff Lewis]

You're such a liar. And you put it. So you give. It's for the commissary, right?

[Michael Beck]

Yes. And they can go buy themselves cigarettes, treats and.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

Can they buy alcohol? You can't buy alcohol there.

[Michael Beck]

No.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, you can't drink in prison.

[Michael Beck]

Sneak that in.

[Melissa]

Good news. We're usually catering to a gay and female straight female audience, but gentlemen, the women are looking too.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, let me see.

[Sutton Stracke]

Hi, I'm Ashley Glandon, number 96336. I really want some fun and positive people to help pass my time. I love to laugh and I. A spunky attitude.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wait, hit me up on jp.

[Sutton Stracke]

She's actually Ken's tight to prison connect.

[Michael Beck]

She likes a brunette.

[Sutton Stracke]

She was cute.

[Jeff Lewis]

She had pretty hair. She said she's spunky. She wants to have some fun. Keon, that's what you need right now. Just fresh out of a breakup. You just need fun with a prisoner.

[Sutton Stracke]

With a prisoner.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Keon]

Is that why you're crying in therapy?

[Michael Beck]

Well, so, I mean. So anyway, so I get into therapy and. And I don't know what happens. I just. I guess because I haven't seen somebody in a long time. I have hijacked every session. I start crying. I'm crying about my childhood and my issues, and I'm like, Austin is so well adjusted and so smart and deals with these things so well. He's literally comforting me as I'm crying to our therapist, to the point where the therapist says, I think you probably need to see somebody on your own.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, separately.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

She told me, maybe you need to start off individual before you jump into the.

[Sutton Stracke]

I think you need to go to therapy solo.

[Jeff Lewis]

I realized you had so much trauma. Is that still flipping after working with you.

[Michael Beck]

Yes. I didn't realize I had so much trauma either until I went there. But our therapist is incredible. But she did recommend that I start seeing something on my own.

[Jeff Lewis]

Have you thought about buying Dorit's house or. It's just too hot in Encino and you don't need that much house.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, I don't even know where this crescent height place is for me to get to.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Encino.

[Keon]

You could never make it to the Valley.

[Jeff Lewis]

I understand. You'd get lost.

[Sutton Stracke]

I would totally get lost.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah. It's probably. Yeah. South of the boulevard. I could get.

[Keon]

Yeah. I mean, she can't get there if she can't find cracks and heights, but

[Michael Beck]

you probably get a good deal.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know. That probably creates some animosity.

[Sutton Stracke]

I don't think it would be a good idea.

[Keon]

Right.

[Michael Beck]

Great. For the song.

[Jeff Lewis]

Now you're on Reddit. Truetide.

[Michael Beck]

Yes.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay. How's that working?

[Michael Beck]

I think actually it's, like, starting to work now. Now I'm feeling, like.

[Unidentified Guest]

Good.

[Michael Beck]

It's like. Like kicked in.

[Jeff Lewis]

Have you got on a scale?

[Sutton Stracke]

What are you doing?

[Michael Beck]

Read A true Titan.

[Sutton Stracke]

I mean, you're writing prisoners, sabotaging your couples therapy, doing red. A true tin. I don't even know what that is.

[Michael Beck]

When we first walked into the JLP

[Jeff Lewis]

one, I've heard a lot about you.

[Michael Beck]

I feel like you're in a really good place.

[Sutton Stracke]

Boyfriend was getting really serious.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, it is getting serious.

[Sutton Stracke]

Seriously about to break up.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah. I want to fit into a wedding dress. I don't want to be snatched now.

[Jeff Lewis]

You are leaving for Europe?

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

When?

[Michael Beck]

Next Tuesday.

[Jeff Lewis]

And you did not upgrade from premium economy.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, God.

[Michael Beck]

Well, I can't now because I was saving to upgrade and I was gonna upgrade both of us as a surprise. But after living in Las Vegas.

[Jeff Lewis]

You gambled it.

[Michael Beck]

I spent. I lost so much money.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, my gosh.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Come on.

[Michael Beck]

So much money on the slot. I couldn't stop. At one point, Austin came to visit.

[Sutton Stracke]

On the slot machine.

[Unidentified Guest]

Yeah.

[Michael Beck]

And I rolled into the room at 4am and he's like, where have you been? And I was like. I just. I couldn't help myself. That wheel of fortune got me.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's so fun.

[Michael Beck]

It's so fun.

[Jeff Lewis]

So you lost thousands and thousands?

[Michael Beck]

Well, I was like, up and then down and up and then down, and then. You're always down when you walk out.

[Sutton Stracke]

Or you can walk out while you're up.

[Michael Beck]

But you know what's crazy? Like, in Vegas, I've been To other casinos here in California. And you're always seeing people get paid out. You know, when they went over a certain amount, they're coming and they're doing. Not in Vegas. I never see anybody get paid out anything big.

[Jeff Lewis]

Wow. So it must have been a substantial loss.

[Michael Beck]

I don't want to talk about it, just in case people are listening.

[Jeff Lewis]

But, yes, it was, because Austin's listening. Well, now some asshole is going to DM him some Karen and be like, oh, Michael was talking about. And they're just going to. They love. They get off on, like, telling on you.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah.

[Jeff Lewis]

So you're gonna have to tell him now. So. But what I would do is I would bring the number way down.

[Michael Beck]

Yeah, yeah, it was a couple hundred bucks.

[Melissa]

So are you an economy, Economy plus or economy premium?

[Michael Beck]

It's called Economy Delight.

[Jeff Lewis]

That is not true. That is not true.

[Michael Beck]

Swear to God. I'll show to you.

[Melissa]

This is Delta.

[Michael Beck]

It's Virgin Atlantic. We're flying to London. And so it's called Economy Delight.

[Melissa]

This is just like a little extra leg room.

[Michael Beck]

I. I don't know.

[Melissa]

Well, we can't wait for you to be delighted.

[Michael Beck]

What I want is a sleeping pill.

[Sutton Stracke]

I'm tell you, when I was in London, I had the best dinner at Dorian's. Have you been to Dorian's in London?

[Narrator/Advertiser]

No.

[Sutton Stracke]

It was amazing. I cannot tell you one. It's super fun. Energy is great. You can either sit at the counter and they're just cooking right in front of you, like, with the grill. It's a big grill place. And then we sat down at the

[Jeff Lewis]

table and just like Benihana.

[Sutton Stracke]

It is. No, it's not like Benihana.

[Jeff Lewis]

It sounds just like Benihana.

[Sutton Stracke]

No, they love a Benihana.

[Jeff Lewis]

I love Benihana, y'.

[Sutton Stracke]

All. Seriously. It is now my new favorite restaurant in the world.

[Jeff Lewis]

Okay.

[Melissa]

God.

[Jeff Lewis]

There was something I was gonna ask you. Oh, I know what it was.

[Sutton Stracke]

What?

[Jeff Lewis]

I've been watching your friends and neighbors. I just finished the season.

[Sutton Stracke]

Oh, I've never seen it.

[Jeff Lewis]

It's so good. I really do think your robbery was an inside job. You have a lot of staff. Did you question them?

[Sutton Stracke]

No.

[Jeff Lewis]

Seriously? No, I think it was an inside job.

[Keon]

No, but it's happening in the neighborhood. It's happening in the area.

[Jeff Lewis]

I think you need to be more persuasive with your questioning.

[Sutton Stracke]

Okay, I will.

[Jeff Lewis]

Maybe a little pain.

[Sutton Stracke]

I have to do this really quick before I leave. Today is my brother's birthday. John Clark and Nick Gentile's birthday.

[Keon]

Shout out. John Clark.

[Sutton Stracke]

John Clark and Nick Gentile.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, I didn't know we were doing birthday shows.

[Sutton Stracke]

Sorry, but I had to today. I have four friends all same.

[Michael Beck]

If anybody else it's birthday call. Call in.

[Jeff Lewis]

Yeah, please. We'd love to do a shout out.

[Sutton Stracke]

I had to do it.

[Jeff Lewis]

Oh, well, then you should tell us. How old are they turning today?

[Michael Beck]

[Sutton Stracke]

Nick is turning 15 50. Oh, my brother's turning 52.

We're gonna be there for like five days.

[Keon]

That's so fun.

[Michael Beck]

For my birthday.
