Episode Overview

This episode of "Miss Understood" dives into the drama and reality behind Netflix's "Members Only Palm Beach" with special guest Taja Abitbol. The host, Rachel Uchitel, aims to give Taja a platform to share her side—beyond the show's edits and social media commentary. Their candid conversation unpacks Palm Beach society's perceived glamor and chaos, the true stories behind the cast, and how reality TV constructs and distorts the truth. They also discuss the origins of the show, cast controversies, and what viewers get wrong about Palm Beach life.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Origin of "Members Only Palm Beach"

• Taja’s Introduction to Reality TV (04:52–07:31)

  • Taja originally tried to develop her own show about Palm Beach's country club life with a New York producer, even attempting to cast Rachel. The initial project stalled due to various setbacks, including a production strike and personal issues among collaborators.
  • The "Members Only" opportunity came unexpectedly via her hairstylist, who introduced her to show producer Dani Bear.

• Casting and Cross-Show Connections (07:31–10:59)

  • Rachel reveals she was almost involved in a rival show, "Snowbirds", which sought a similar demographic but failed to launch.
  • There is significant cast crossover between "Members Only" and "Snowbirds", leading to confusion and commentary about authenticity in casting.

2. Controversy Over Authenticity & Geography

• Palm Beach vs. Palm Beach County (10:59–11:29)
  • Discussion around accusations that cast members aren’t truly from Palm Beach proper. Both emphasize the difference between Palm Beach the town and Palm Beach County, clarifying the show never claimed exclusive town representation.
  • Taja: “They said Palm Beach County … Not just Palm beach proper. Like, nobody wants to live there. It’s too restricted.” (10:57)

3. Taja’s Background & Personal Narrative

• Entrepreneurship and Family (15:58–23:17)

  • Taja details her journey from real estate to owning French-Moroccan restaurants and nightclubs in New York, then transitioning into wellness and biohacking with her brand Taja Drip.
  • Her family heritage (French/Moroccan/Tunisian) informs her business and personal values.
  • She has a long-term relationship (over 15 years) with famed baseball player David Cone, with whom she shares a child, challenging the show's selective portrayal of her personal life.

• Reality of Relationships on the Show (13:39–15:19)

  • Taja discusses her family's limited on-screen participation, noting Netflix deliberately kept her partner’s exposure minimal to preserve boundaries:
    • Taja: “I think they knew what they were doing. Netflix, you know … I don’t think that he should be associated with such a ridiculous… show.” (14:18)

4. Reality vs. Edited TV

• Show Experience vs. Reality (27:04–28:46)
  • Taja filmed many scenes, especially with family, most of which were cut. She believes this editing ultimately protected her reputation:
    • Taja: “Most of my shit got cut out … because I’m not compared to the rest of the girls, like, about them being ridiculous and I need to preserve my business … I really do have a serious brand to protect. None of them do.” (27:15)

5. Cast Member Dynamics & Drama

• Breakdown of Main Cast

  • Gayle Brophy: Widely perceived as over-the-top both on and off camera, her behavior at Taja’s premiere resulted in her being removed for disruptive conduct (36:02–37:32). Their relationship is now openly adversarial.
    • Taja on Gayle: “She comes in in a drunken stupor … says, ‘oh, we're gonna have a lawsuit here tonight.’” (36:02)
  • Rosalyn: Frequently accused of exaggerating her social status, especially relating to membership at Mar-a-Lago. There’s discussion about her possibly being asked to leave the club in real life (43:32–44:07).
  • Hillary: Seen as the “real deal” but has also attracted attention for her choice of husband (a former doorman), which some cast members find surprising. Taja and Rachel defend her as legitimate and down-to-earth.
    • Taja: “Hillary prefers to donate under the radar. That's the way to do it.” (42:35)
  • Sous Belle: Touted by Taja as “iconic” and “beautiful,” praised for her class and potential future on the show (46:59–47:38).
  • Maria (“DJ Tumble”) & Romina: Cast to represent the aspirational, newer arrivals to Palm Beach society, often ostracized for not conforming to traditional norms.

• Rifts & Real Tensions

  • There is genuine, ongoing conflict between Taja and Gayle, as well as between Hillary and Rosalyn (57:45–58:43).
    • Taja: “There is a real rift now between me and Gayle because, I mean, first of all, like, everything I do, they copy me. … She got thrown out because she was under the influence and misbehaving with her etiquette.” (57:45)

6. Critique of Show’s Social Hierarchy & Wealth

• No True Billionaires & Portrayal of Wealth (50:45–51:16)

  • Rachel and Taja emphasize that the extreme wealth depicted is not representative of the cast’s true backgrounds; scenes frequently use borrowed or staged settings.
    • Taja: “There's nobody that's a billionaire on our cast.” (51:12)

• How TV Distorts Real Social Life (39:08–40:10; 53:04–53:23)

  • The show amplifies Palm Beach stereotypes (loudness, name-dropping, etiquette lessons), often for comic effect, but these are not descriptive of the island’s “real” old guard, who largely avoid the spotlight.

7. Looking Forward: Season Two & Personal Projects

• Taja expresses hope and reasonable certainty that "Members Only" will be renewed, based in part on audience obsession—even if loud opinions remain divided (48:56–49:19).
• She plans to showcase more of her business and family life should a second season happen (59:38–60:10).

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the Show’s Tone:

  • Rachel: “Some people see Members Only Palm Beach as a glossy look into privilege, power, and elite social circles. Others say it exposes entitlement, secrecy, and a world most people never get access to.” (03:36)

• On Social Climbing:

  • Rachel: “It's uncomfortable to watch that kind of person be such a social climber. That, to me, was what was like ... this is going terribly because all the women started acting like that.” (39:08)

• On Reality TV Ridiculousness:

  • Taja: “Of course. I mean, but it's reality TV. Like, reality TV is ridiculous.” (14:45)

• On Criticism and Authenticity:

  • Taja: “Nobody is claiming that the cast is only people who were born and raised on the island. … Palm beach county is a big place.” (49:33)

• On Show Editing:

  • Taja: “Most of my shit got cut out ... I think they did me a service by doing that, because I … have a serious brand to protect. None of them do, you know, so they can look like ... they can be criticized.” (27:15)

• On the "Queen Bee" Drama:

  • Taja: “Gayle happened to, you know … I do think she's good TV. I really do. I think she's great TV. She is. … But her bad side is just too volatile.” (32:29)

The Heart of the Conversation

The heart of this episode is an unsparing look at how manufactured drama and calculated casting create a warped mirror of Palm Beach’s true social fabric. Taja uses the platform to defend her identity, correct misconceptions about her background and Palm Beach society, and reveal unedited truths and real rivalries behind the show’s glamour.

Rachel encourages listeners to see the show for what it is—entertainment, not a documentary—and urges the public to avoid conflating cast antics with the culture of Palm Beach at large.

---

Conclusion

The episode draws a clear line between the spectacle of reality TV and the multilayered, often misunderstood reality of those it features. Both host and guest embrace the entertainment value while highlighting the lost complexities and humanity of cast members—especially those, like Taja, who were nearly reduced to tropes or left off the cutting room floor. Ultimately, the episode calls for a more discerning, empathetic view of both TV personalities and the exclusive worlds they allegedly inhabit.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Today on Misunderstood with Rachel Yucatel. So you're in on the joke. You think this is ridiculous.

[Taja Lucky]

Of course this scene didn't make it to the cutting room, but this was a great scene.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Gayle should tell them about how she used to be rowdy and crazy.

[Taja Lucky]

What do you mean used to be? She still is. That's why she had to be removed from my premiere. There is a real rift between us because.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Let'S talk about that relationship with Rosalynn. I mean, it was pretty uncomfortable to watch.

[Taja Lucky]

Hi, I'm Rosalyn Yellen and welcome to the iconic Mar? A Lago. There's nobody that's a billionaire on our cast.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Welcome back to Misunderstood. I'm your host, Rachel Yukitel. First of all, I just want to thank you guys so much for all the love and attention I've been getting this past week. I got married and I'm so thankful that all of you got to see some of the pictures already online. It was in People magazine and all the coverage about it has been amazing. And I am going to be talking on my Patreon about all the details of what it was like, who is here, what happened. So that's a story for Patreon, which will be out next week. But I want to talk about something that you are all talking about right now, which is Members Only Palm beach out on Netflix. It's a top 10 hit already and it's only been out for three weeks. The bottom line is, is that if you are having any conversations with anyone, something has come up about whether or not you've watched this show, and everyone seems to have an opinion. Some people see Members Only Palm beach as a glossy look into privilege, power, and elite social circles. Others say it exposes entitlement, secrecy, and a world most people never get access to. Today we have Taja on Misunderstood exclusively to get her side of the story. Not the edited version, not the online commentary, but hers 100%. We met in my studio in Boca. We get into how she ended up on Members Only, what filming was really like behind the scenes, what surprised her the most, what felt accurate, what didn't. And yes, we're talking about the castmates and the dynamics that didn't fully make it to the screen. If you've seen a lot of memes, you've seen there's a lot of stuff going on between her and Gail. You see that Hillary has already been on a podcast. You see that Gayle has done something with tmz, and now Rosalynn has been on Nick Viall's show. So Taj is here to give her side, to talk all about the drama and to talk about what her thoughts are now that everybody's talking about it and if she's still excited to be associated with this group of women. We also talk about whether or not there is a season two. So there's so much to get into. I'm gonna let you listen to it right now, but please enjoy my conversation that I had this morning with my friend Tasha Sa. Taja, thank you so much for making the time to come see me on Misunderstood.

[Taja Lucky]

Of course. Thank you for having me.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Of course. So we were just talking about it. All the podcasts are starting to come out now. Three of the girls now have done it. I wanna get your reaction, but first, before we start with all that, how does this feel? Your show has been out, what, two weeks now? Three. Something like that. Your show is what everybody's talking about. Did you think this was the reaction that the press and the public would have?

[Taja Lucky]

I actually did. I did. Because, you know, Palm beach is so hot. It's like everybody's talking about this region right now. Everybody wants to be here, and I'm not surprised.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So, okay. So here's what's interesting, though. I know you obviously are aware of the public reaction. Like, people are outraged. People are like, it's a train wreck. But I can't stop watching. People are, like, excited for you guys. I mean, I've read a lot of your comments. And me knowing you from before this, like, I'm so happy for you. We had spoken endlessly, days on end about getting, you know, you being on a show.

[Taja Lucky]

I went to a show before this one, and I wanted to cast you, remember?

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes.

[Taja Lucky]

And I reached out to you. Yes, yes.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So wait, how did this show come about? So was this not from the same production studio that.

[Taja Lucky]

No.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay, tell me about that. Right.

[Taja Lucky]

Because you remember I was working with a New York producer when I reached out to you to come on our show. Right. And. And we filmed a sizzle reel about the same kind of thing, like, country club lifestyle. Cause when I first moved here, I actually moved to Palm beach, and I was living in Old Palm in a country club. And for me, coming from New York to. I've always been a snowbird, but living here is much different than snowbirding. Of course, I had a totally different experience when I first moved, and I was like, oh, my God, I need to do a show about this. And that's when I was, you know, filming with a New York producer. And that's when I reached out to you.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes.

[Taja Lucky]

But then Covid happened, and then we never got to. Oh, no, the strike happened. Not Covid. I'm sorry. The strike happened, and we really didn't get to pitch it properly.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. And also, I remember the people we were talking about doing it with, I won't mention one of them had, like, a drug overdose.

[Taja Lucky]

Oh, right, right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Remember? And so that didn't work out. And then there was some issues that didn't happen. And then, you know, we just kind of went our separate way. At that point. I was doing other things. I was trying to make the show get bigger. So how did this show find you?

[Taja Lucky]

And then the girl who did my hair in Palm beach, her name is Elia, she has the best salon. You gotta try her one day.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay.

[Taja Lucky]

She called me one day and said, you're not gonna believe this. There's somebody sitting in my chair who's doing the country club show like we just filmed. Right. And she said, you have to meet her. And that's how.

[Rachel Yukatel]

She was a casting director.

[Taja Lucky]

She was. I'm not really sure. She's one of the producers. She was casting and producing. And she's great. Her name is Dani Bear. Ok. And I met her through the girl who did my hair for the original sizzle that we were gonna shoot. So, you know, it's like, when something's meant to be, it comes to you. However the universe that is True sends.

[Rachel Yukatel]

It, you know, so it's interesting. Cause people don't know this, and I am gonna talk about it. So at the same time, I think that this was happening with you. There's a show that has had a lot of press about it called Snowbirds.

[Taja Lucky]

Right. I remember that.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And I was cast on that.

[Taja Lucky]

I know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So we were supposed. First of all, they called me when I was in New York, before I even moved to Florida, said, would you like to be on this? The demographic, though, is 55 and up. And I'm like, well, I'm not. At the time, I was only 49 or whatever. So I said, no, it's not gonna be me. And also, I'm moving to Palm Beach. I'm not a snowbird. So I said, no. Long story short, last year, some point at maybe the beginning of the summer, I can't really remember, I was invited by Harry Dubin to a party where they were filming the pilot or the sizzle reel, whatever it was for the show at some art.

[Taja Lucky]

Right. I remember that. I know all about that.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So he brings me. I walk up and I'm like, what am I getting myself into? I see the whole production team. They ask me to sign something. They mic me. I walk in, and all the cast who. It seems like they had already cast it somehow. I knew all of them, like, legitimately.

[Taja Lucky]

It was totally bizarre.

[Rachel Yukatel]

One of the girls on it, she owned a bar next to my children's store that I owned. And her boyfriend I hired as my construction worker, like, totally bizarre. And all these people had been cast. So we film. I walk in. It was really awkward. I was like, how are they gonna make a show out of this? This is very random. And Rand, they pull me outside afterwards when I'm taking my mic off, and they said, can you film with us again tomorrow? So I do. I go to Scott diamond is. How do you pronounce his last name, that owns Provident Jewelers. Go to his house, who also is in your show, which is odd. And so immediately I see, you know, I don't think I'm part of the show yet. I think I'm just, you know, they want to have me on mic, whatever. Immediately, Gail walks in. Gail was cast as the queen bee on this Snowbird show. And, you know, another scene that you have in there, you have Cheryl, who's sitting at lunch, I think, with you at the tea.

[Taja Lucky]

No, not with me.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay. You weren't there at the tea thing. These are all people who were the cast of Snowbirds. So it was Very odd to watch your show and be like, wow, this crossover is weird now. It didn't work. Snowbirds didn't work. And by the way, at the time, I was like, this cast is completely insane.

[Taja Lucky]

It's like Golden Girls.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah, yeah, it was like Golden Girls. Looking back, it actually would have been great. Cause the drama and the nonsense and the bullshit was crazy. Now, okay, so here's the thing. So now you guys obviously beat us. Like, the casting directors did much. Let's not talk about the casting directors. The people who bought the shows loved what you guys did in the sizzle reel. I didn't even know how they made a sizzle reel out of this mess that they had with Snowbirds. But the idea was fantastic. I was shocked that it didn't go. And it didn't go because Netflix picked. Okay, so it's very interesting to me, though, to see the casting that went in, because I think a lot of people are talking about the casting because no one understands it. You know what I mean? And I think you agree because all of you are very interesting people on your own. But we all know, and this is the controversy, a lot of these people don't live in Palm beach proper. Who cares? I still don't kind of understand that. Nobody cares. A lot of these people don't even live in West Palm. I mean, we know you have a.

[Taja Lucky]

Place in from Miami, but nobody said it's Palm beach or West Palm Beach. They said Palm Beach County.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right?

[Taja Lucky]

Which is a very big place.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right.

[Taja Lucky]

And many, many billionaires are purchasing right. In Palm Beach County. Not just Palm beach proper. Like, nobody wants to live there. It's too restricted.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Well, so I do think. And I do want to clear this up, because there's all these people talking about, oh, these girls aren't Palm Beach. Who gives a shit? That's not even the point.

[Taja Lucky]

But nobody claims that. Right? That's the point. We said Palm beach county from the start.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes. Okay, but let's be clear. A lot of these women live in Boca, Miami, wherever. West Palm. And again, who gives a shit? Yes.

[Taja Lucky]

Right?

[Rachel Yukatel]

So I think that there's so much controversy from people who live in Palm beach that are like, I would never associate with these people. And this is what we. You know, we don't.

[Taja Lucky]

Everybody wants to associate with me, okay? I did the premiere of the show, And I had 400 guests. And I had a 400 waiting list, actually wanted to invite you, but I saw that you were busy with your wedding. And by the way, congratulations. I'm so Happy for you.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Thank you.

[Taja Lucky]

I can't. That ring is. Can I please see that?

[Rachel Yukatel]

Didn't he do a good job?

[Taja Lucky]

Oh.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I know he did. I know he did an amazing job.

[Taja Lucky]

That's like, wow.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah, I have chills. I know.

[Taja Lucky]

You're amazing.

[Rachel Yukatel]

But you know what? I love the ring, obviously. And I love him. I love him so much, Taja. And I didn't think a year and a half ago I would even find somebody. I think when you and I were talking, I don't even think I had a boyfriend, though.

[Taja Lucky]

No.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And I didn't think I could fix.

[Taja Lucky]

You up at some point, and I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Didn'T think I would ever find somebody.

[Taja Lucky]

So, anyway, I want to cry. Thank you, but no, I want to. I always had mad respect for you because I think you're doing such a great job with your podcast.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Thank you.

[Taja Lucky]

I wanted to cast you on the show that I was working on.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right.

[Taja Lucky]

And I wanted to fix you up with someone because I think you're a great catch.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And I have a type, which I'm not with now, but, you know, an athlete and your husband or your.

[Taja Lucky]

I love athletes, and I love blondes with blue eyes. I'm dark, and I like the opposite. Right. And that's what I got.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And actually, because, again, a lot of people don't understand your situation, let's talk about the fact that your significant other is one of the most famous people in Major League Baseball history. So I don't know if people are giving you credit for that. I mean, you, him, whatever, but, like, you're a legit. You're in a legit relationship. I saw them write it as significant other, which I want to establish. You have a child with this man and have been with him for, what, over 12 years?

[Taja Lucky]

Over 15 years.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. 15 years.

[Taja Lucky]

We've been together forever. And, you know, I have a ring, too.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes, I see that.

[Taja Lucky]

And I have a prenup. Like, we've always. He always wanted to marry me. Like, he's obsessed with me. He loves me, but I'm the love of his life, and I adore him, but I just. We just never got married. Like, I don't. I don't care about, like, illegal documents, and, like, I feel like he's my husband. Yeah, that's it.

[Rachel Yukatel]

How does he. Cause I remember when we were talking about doing a show, you were like, he will never be in it. But I did see him in the.

[Taja Lucky]

Opening episode, you know, like, he's just very supportive of me. So even though, like, he really does not want Much to do with reality tv. He came to. The way he got on the show was. He came to one of my events. That was. It was my event, that palm event in the show. So he came. Cause a bunch of his fans were gonna be there and they wanted to meet him. So I was like, david, could you please stop by? And he was like, sure, right? And then they kind of like, mic'd him and got him whatever. But, like, they showed him for a second. And we did shoot a lot of other scenes, but they were never aired.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Aired.

[Taja Lucky]

Okay. I did many, many scenes with my family, my son David, and he was supportive, but they cut it out. And I think that that was probably the right thing to do because I, you know, I. I don't. I think they knew what they were doing. Netflix, you know, Like, I don't think that he should be associated with such a ridiculous, you know, like, show, you.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Know, So I love that you're saying that, though. So you're in on the joke. You think this is ridiculous.

[Taja Lucky]

Of course. I mean, but it's reality tv. Like, reality TV is ridiculous.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right? Right.

[Taja Lucky]

You know what I mean? That's what people want to watch.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah, but. So he is proud of you. He's fine with it. He just doesn't necessarily need to be. How? Hillary put her husband in the show. Like, you don't need to have him there all day long.

[Taja Lucky]

No, he's too serious to be like, I didn't marry the doorman. You know what I mean? It's like, you know, it's okay for him to be in the show. Like, it's not okay for, you know, an American legend to be associated with that. You know, it's just. It's just not. I think Netflix knew what they were doing.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes. Well, with mad props and respect, he really is a legend. So I do wanna give you that credibility because that. I don't know that people really get who you are before this show. They just think you, like, appear and you have all this, like, flash going on and you are the peacemaker in it. So I don't think there's any real drama with you. And there's not a lot of bad talk at all about you and who you are. But let's talk about that for a little bit. I want people to know who you were before you got on the show. You talk a little bit about your parents on the show and where you came from, which is fascinating. And your parents are adorable. I know, but, like, just talk about a little bit. Cause you're known In New York, a lot more than down here.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. So, well, I am known here now, but yes, I was very known in New York. And you and I have a lot in common, actually, because I owned restaurants in New York and nightlife, nightclubs, and that's what I start. I mean, actually, I started my career in real estate. I got licensed when I was 18 years old in New York, and I was selling, like, big commercial properties, like income producing properties. And I did very well for myself and I had a lot of cash when I was like 22, and I opened a restaurant and people were like, how are you gonna open a restaurant? Like, you were never even like a waitress.

[Rachel Yukatel]

What kind of food?

[Taja Lucky]

French? Moroccan.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes. Just like the season finale, which you didn't see yet because it was very similar to my restaurant.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay.

[Taja Lucky]

And so I figured it out. Like, I am really a serial entrepreneur because everybody was like. Like, you know, you never even waitressed or like, you were never even a coat check girl. Like, how are you going to open a restaurant? But my father is a chef and I come from, like, on my father's side, a long line of, like, they have restaurants all over Paris, my family, and the south of France, because my father is French, Moroccan, Tunisian, and my whole family lives in Paris, so. And on my mother's side, everybody's in real estate. I come from a real estate background from my mother's side. So I was always fascinated with both because that's what I grew up around and I have a background in both. So I had some very successful restaurants in New York and clubs. They were like supper clubs, you know, like, remember, like, I don't know if you've ever been to them, but they were called Taja and Kapital and they were very, very.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I know, Capitol.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. Yes. That's, in fact, how I met Jill, because Bobby was one of my best customers. He was in my restaurant every single night. He had every birthday party, every celebration, his mother, his sisters, like, you know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And you were there and present. It's not like you had people running.

[Taja Lucky]

It every day, right? Every day in all of them. And I had no life. Like, I was running all of them. And it was. Yeah, it was a very hard job, as you know. Cause you were in that business.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes, I was in that business. My grandparents were in that. Like, it's a. And by the way, when you're doing it, you don't care about relationships. You don't care about love. Like, you are. That is your love. It is a great. By the way, I Loved being in that industry.

[Taja Lucky]

Me, too. I had the time of my life.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Time of my life. And you're. And what you're doing is giving other people the best night of their lives. And as long as you have a good head on your shoulders and you don't drink and do drugs and get all wrapped up in it, it's fantastic. Me, too.

[Taja Lucky]

And I still don't drink. And in fact, like, I got caught a few times. Cause I would, like, have dummy bottles because, you know, everybody wanted to buy me a drink. So I would put, like, ginger ale in a bottle, and I would sell it for, like, $900. Yeah. You know what I mean?

[Rachel Yukatel]

And they'd be like, it's so funny that you say that. It was part of my contract that, like, if a guy. I made him, you know, I would convince him to buy Cristal. The girls would give me, you know, pour me something. And it had to be diet ginger ale.

[Taja Lucky]

Oh, my God. So I thought I invented that. No. Okay.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Well, me and you, I guess.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right.

[Taja Lucky]

Okay.

[Rachel Yukatel]

But I needed to have my wits about me.

[Taja Lucky]

Me, too. I had to count my money at the end of the night. It was a lot to count.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And I needed to make sure that the men signed their checks.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes. Me, too. All night long.

[Rachel Yukatel]

That's so funny. So how did you get into beauty, though?

[Taja Lucky]

So, okay, so. Because I was in the restaurant business, and it's very. You know, there's a lot of wear and tear on you when you live the nightlife. Right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah.

[Taja Lucky]

So I was always into, like, really recovering hard, you know, Like, I would, like, sleep in my sauna. Sure. I would, like, you know, cold plunge. I was doing all this stuff before anybody heard of it, like, IV therapy and, you know, to, like, get me back on, you know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah.

[Taja Lucky]

You needed to be awake seven days a week. Seven nights a week. And I was at. You know, it's a very. As you know, it's a very, very tough business.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah.

[Taja Lucky]

And I worked very hard, and I was the one there present every night. I was entertaining everybody, hosting everybody. People still ask me, when are you opening another restaurant? When are you. You know, like. And I haven't been in the business for, like, almost 20 years.

[Kachava Announcer]

Yeah.

[Taja Lucky]

So anyway, that's where it all started. Cause I just needed to, like, you know, be on top of my game, physically.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Got it.

[Taja Lucky]

And so you're just like, I might.

[Rachel Yukatel]

As well open one of my own.

[Taja Lucky]

Exactly. So then when I moved here, I couldn't get, like, the same treatments that I had in New York. Cause I had all the doctors, like, the best doctors. Because, you know, then of course, then when I got with David, then I was around athletes all the time, and it was like, you know, really, like, they're all. They're the real biohackers. Like, they know how to biohack.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah.

[Taja Lucky]

You know, David so into all this because, you know, he had to do this to elongate his career, too. Just like myself in the restaurant business. But not as much as, you know, athletes have way more wear and tear. I'm not comparing myself to an athlete, but you know what I mean?

[Rachel Yukatel]

I do.

[Taja Lucky]

Like, he understood the recovery side of things and the need for, you know, to elongate.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So at some point you had. Did you have a spa in New York? I mean, I know you had a spot in the Faina, right?

[Taja Lucky]

I do. I have. It's not really a spot. It's a longevity and wellness sector, so. And I am the pioneer in this industry within the luxury hotel space. Because I've been doing this before. Anybody heard of it? You know how everybody's doing biohacking now?

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes.

[Taja Lucky]

I've been doing it since before anybody's heard of it. They thought I was nuts, you know, with all the peptides and IVs and NAD and methylene blue. Like, nobody knew what it was. And they thought I was crazy, like, shooting myself up every day.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And did you get into the mobile business, too?

[Taja Lucky]

Now we do mobile in New York. I do mobile all over. Yes.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Meaning what? Concierge?

[Taja Lucky]

Yes. Like we people house. Yeah.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And you do the IVs, and you do the peptides and you do all this stuff at home?

[Taja Lucky]

Yes.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay, amazing. So at the end of this, we'll let people know how they can find that, because that's amazing. You don't have to go to Faina to enjoy your services. I love that.

[Taja Lucky]

And my product line, I have, you know, actually ingestibles and, like, liquid form ingestibles.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Amazing. Because you look amazing. Your skin. People that are not watching this should know that your skin is, like, flawless. You know, you look.

[Taja Lucky]

I want to invite you in. I've been trying to invite you forever.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I'm dying to come. I'm dying to come. So. And then how did you meet David?

[Taja Lucky]

So I met David. Well, I met him in my restaurant, but I didn't remember that, so. Because, like, that was another thing. Like, I never knew who anybody. I had a ton of celebrities there every single night. And I would have meetings with my staff every day and say, if you see A celebrity, and you, like, you know, make it known. If you get excited or ask for an autograph or a picture, you're fired on the spot, right?

[Rachel Yukatel]

Of course.

[Taja Lucky]

On the spot. So, you know, we didn't. I never even recognized anybody. In fact, like, you know, like, I had the top people there. I didn't even recognize people. I really didn't because I was so focused. And to me, everybody's money's green, and that's all I had to, you know, be on track of is if they signed their checks, you know? Right. So I was too busy to recognize anyone but a couple. Like, shortly after I got out of the restaurant business, after I, you know, got out of the last restaurant and I was in the process of opening another one, I ran into him at a Christmas party, and he was like, wait a minute. Aren't you that girl Taja from that sexy Moroccan restaurant? And I was like, yeah. And I'm like, oh, my God, you're that basketball player. And he was like, yeah. And I go, I knew it. I knew it. I knew I knew you. But, like, I knew I knew him, but I didn't, like, you know, I was. Whatever. So that's how.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Oh, my goodness.

[Taja Lucky]

How about them Yankees? Yeah. Right, right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Oh, so funny. All right, well. And you guys have. How old is your son now?

[Taja Lucky]

14.

[Rachel Yukatel]

14. Okay. And, like, in a daughter, I think. Yeah, she's about to be 14. But, like, is he still an aspiring actor? Okay, love that. Adorable. And so this is. He totally excited about everything that's going on with you?

[Taja Lucky]

He is. He loves it. He's, like, so into it. He's reading all the comments and. Yeah, but he wants to be on, so maybe next season he will be.

[Rachel Yukatel]

All right, so then let's get back to the show.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. All right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Originally. So how did the cast get built? Cause I heard a lot of people talking about how. Oh, you seem to be the one that's known a lot of people and brought them. So did you know the whole group and you suggested them as a cast?

[Taja Lucky]

Mostly, I recommended not Rosalind. I'm sorry. Hillary and Maria and a few others who are not no longer on.

[Rachel Yukatel]

When you guys started filming, was it a different cast and it ended up being this one that we see?

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah, it was like, you know, there were a few more of us filming, and then it narrowed down to the five of us.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So were you shocked when the final edits came out and you saw that some people were cut?

[Taja Lucky]

No.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Were they shocked?

[Taja Lucky]

I don't know. I don't talk to them anymore.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay, now watching it back, tell us what is different about filming it versus what you saw. Because we've heard now a couple cast members say, oh my God, I can't believe this isn't even what I thought was gonna come out. I didn't really have this rift with someone. So you tell me the reality behind that.

[Taja Lucky]

So, you know, like, I filmed many, many, many hours, and, you know, only, like, a little bit of what I filmed made it to the cutting board.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Sure.

[Taja Lucky]

So I was a little surprised that, you know, most of my shit got cut out, you know, so. But again, I think they did me a service by doing that, because I'm not compared to the rest of the girls, like, about them being ridiculous and I need to preserve my business, you know, and, like, I really do have a legend to protect. I really do have a serious brand to protect. None of them do, you know, so they can look like, you know, they can be criticized.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So your storyline was more than just, like, the peacemaker or the person that was calling.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes, I had more of, like, my family, which was, you know, my storyline with my parents, like, that I. You know, they reunited after 50 years, and my father's wife died, and I took care of her after. She was like, you know, the wicked witch of the west of, you know, Palm beach west or whatever. Yeah, yeah. Tortured me my whole life, but I took care of her on her deathbed. And then my mother and my father reunited after 50 years and were living with me in the same room. Like, my personal storyline is much more fascinating than, you know, Romina trying to get etiquette classes from the two biggest, you know, nincapoops in Palm Beach. You know what I mean? So, like, honestly, like. But so I was a little bit surprised that that was cut, but that's okay.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right?

[Taja Lucky]

I think they did me a service, and I still liked my scenes, and I still like how I came off, because I see that I'm getting a lot of love from the fans, and I really appreciate that. Right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

All right, well, let's go down the list of girls. So it seems to be that there is. Well, first of all, Gayle. Gayle's not really part of the five or six of you, Whatever.

[Taja Lucky]

Right. She's a friend of.

[Rachel Yukatel]

She is a friend of. But she is somebody who comes across as being part of the show completely.

[Taja Lucky]

I mean, she's got a lot of airtime.

[Rachel Yukatel]

She got a lot. Were you surprised about that?

[Taja Lucky]

Like, yes and no. Cause I. I think, like, I guess they're going after a ridiculous storyline. Right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So as they were filming, they probably realized this was so over the top and crazy. Okay, so let's talk about Gayle, because she's a friend of For a second. I know Gayle, as I said, because we filmed together. And Gayle is, I will say to people, as you will, I'm sure, attest, she is exactly what you see on camera. I mean, that is her. I mean, she walks into any room and she, you know, feels like she needs to express who she is, who she was, how important she is, how she is the queen bee of Palm Beach. When I first met her. And listen, I grew up in Manhattan, but my grandparents lived here on the island.

[Taja Lucky]

So did mine.

[Rachel Yukatel]

In a house.

[Taja Lucky]

So did mine.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Across the street from the beach.

[Taja Lucky]

So did mine.

[Rachel Yukatel]

My mother still has a place in Palm beach like we're talking about on the island.

[Taja Lucky]

Mine, too.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I've lived here. I live in West Palm. I have a house in West Palm. I have a house in Palm Beach Gardens, But I grew up here. Okay, so let's get to that. I've never in my life heard of Gayle Brophy.

[Taja Lucky]

Me neither.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Not that there's anything wrong with it, but I will tell you that she's not.

[Taja Lucky]

I don't know her from the Hamptons. Like, I know her from the Hamptons, but not from here. Right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Well, I only know her from the Hamptons because she rented a room with another cast member.

[Taja Lucky]

Right? She rented a room she was staying in. A guy I know his basement. Yeah, but she's so rich. Okay, right.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay.

[Taja Lucky]

So I will say she has no place to stay.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I will say about Gayle, listen, she is a very nice person. She.

[Taja Lucky]

When she's sleeping, maybe. I don't know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

She is a nice woman. But the thing that I try and remind herself, she's an older woman. If my grandmother or my mother was up every day when they were filming and we were filming for Snowbirds, I was like, listen, I host a show. I am a mother of a 12, 13 year old. @ the time, I don't understand how they go out to lunches, how they have so many clothes, how they do, you know, how they're at dinners every night, how they compete with each other. And it was difficult to be in a room with her and her friends because all they wanted to do was talk about how important they were. And on those same days, I'm like being written about on Page Six. Do you know what I mean? I was just like, what are these girls talking.

[Taja Lucky]

About? They are the same. Okay? That's what. And that is what I said. I'm like, wait a second. Why are like, you know, I really respect my elders. I really do. I'm a very respectful person, but she is a little vicious. She's vicious, and nobody's gonna be vicious with me. Yeah, I don't care how old you.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Are. You know, it's interesting you say that. I don't know that she's Vic. I think she's really narcissistic and because a lot of the things she's trying to live in a world where she may not feel like she matters anymore, maybe because of her age, maybe because she's not.

[Taja Lucky]

Married. And I really feel sorry for her that she's so insecure. And I don't. You know, I don't like. I am not here to compete with Gayle because there's no competition for me with anybody on the show, any of this cast. Okay? I am not here to compete. That's why you saw that I just sat back and watched because it's just too ridiculous for me to try and get into it with them. Like, who's the Queen of Palm.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Beach? No, she didn't. Yes, she.

[Taja Lucky]

Did. I mean, it is just absurd, right? And Gayle happened to, you know. You know, I do think she's good tv. I really do. I think she's great.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Tv. She.

[Taja Lucky]

Is. And I think that she does have a good side, but I would really love to see more of her good side, because her other side is just too volatile and too, you know, like, liable. Like she's a liability.

[Rachel Yukatel]

And. Yeah, well, the problem with Gayle, and again, I say it with love, Gayle, is that she. You don't get to know anything about her because she just wants to give a resume. I mean, the best line of the whole thing is, I'm not.

[Taja Lucky]

Hiring.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Exactly. When you said that, it was like, why are you giving me a resume, by the way? You know, there have been so many people that have sent me. I have all these pages in front of me for people that can't me send. These are things that people have sent me in the last 24 hours when I said I had you coming on things where they do you see this? This says, like, Warren Deded people trying to show me evidence of all the lies that Gail said. And it's really sad because I don't want to, like, expose her on that.

[Taja Lucky]

Stuff. People are sending me that, but.

[Rachel Yukatel]

It'S like, I just.

[Taja Lucky]

Wish. And it's.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Sad. I just wish that she would be a little bit more about who she is now. She hasn't chaired a Red Cross ball in as long as anybody can remember, Right? She hasn't chaired anything. And, you know, I know that she had issues with paying people for her outfits. I know that she. You know that there are stories about her. This is not the classy woman that she's handing batons to and being in a fake legacy.

[Taja Lucky]

Book. She turns a dress that she shit in. Okay, okay, so I'm sorry. Like, I am not gonna pretend that she is the queen of Palm Beach. I'm just not. But I said this on the show. But they cut it out. I said, gayle, like, stop with all the fluff. Like, you are enough. Can't we just get to know you? I don't want to hear about, like, what? Like, we don't care about. And if I'm gonna name drop, like I said, we're gonna have to open a library.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Here.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay. Well, I hope they have a season two. Only for the fact that Gayle's storyline should be more. If she's brought onto the cast, more about her. She has a sort of. You know the stuff about her owning horses. Her husband and two other men owned the Kentucky Derby winner. I mean, she was the wife of. Good for her, but it wasn't for.

[Taja Lucky]

Her. But about 400 other people owned that.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Horse.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes. I mean, come.

[Rachel Yukatel]

On. And you know, the thing is, is I'll tell you a great story that is a piece of gossip around Palm beach, but that can clearly be verified, is that, yes, she's known in the Hamptons, but part of why she's known in the Hamptons is because there's a great story about her going to visit her son, who. Or staying at the house with her ex husband at the time and his new wife. She got into a fight with the ex wife and bit off her.

[Taja Lucky]

Toe. Oh, I heard.

[Rachel Yukatel]

That. Yeah. And the woman had. And the woman had to be brought to the.

[Taja Lucky]

Hospital. I heard about.

[Rachel Yukatel]

That. But the reason I bring it up is because to me, these are great stories. Gayle should tell them about how she used to be rowdy and.

[Taja Lucky]

Crazy. What do you mean, used to be? She still is. That's why I had to. She had to be removed from my.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Premiere. Okay, tell me about that. I heard about that. She threatened me at the premiere of the show.

[Taja Lucky]

Recently. Yes, I heard that. Success at the premier. Go ahead. I worked very hard to curate a beautiful night for all of us. I didn't get one thank you. From any of them except Hillary. I got a. You should have seen my media line and the like. Nobody could pull that off around here. Okay, and where did you have it? In a gorgeous house at the Bears Club. Okay. Beautiful In a stunning mansion that's like a 30, 40, $50 million mansion and brand new, and it's for sale. It's my friend's house. A lovely guy, and it's a stunning. He did an amazing job. And, of course, I'm responsible for the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

House.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. And she comes in in a drunken stupor, and God knows what else she was on and says, oh, we're gonna have a lawsuit here tonight. And also my security, because I had five Faina security men working for me that night and five IDF soldiers who just came back from Gaza. Okay? So we were not messing around. I was not gonna have anybody, you know, fall in the house or, you know, damage something in the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

House. Well, were they filming that night? Like, why was she coming with such a.

[Taja Lucky]

Persona? Like, that's how she is. You don't even need to be filming for that. No, we were not filming.

[Rachel Yukatel]

No. And so she got.

[Taja Lucky]

Removed. Yes. And the security already noticed that she was, you know, out of sorts of. Before I saw her. Right. And they were following her because, you know, I made all this beautiful Members only merch and these champagne glasses, and they said Members Only on them. And I had, like, a martini girl, like, with, you know, a skirt, with the glasses in her skirt. I mean, it was beautiful. And she was handing martini, you know, the glasses to everybody, but people would take, like, one sip and put it down. She was outside before she came in, drinking all the leftover.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Champagne.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. That, like, early drunken glasses came in with an attitude. I'm the one who's. I'm the queen here. I'm this. There's gonna be a lawsuit. And I saw her and Rosalynn whispering. They were up to no good. Yeah. And that's not gonna happen. It's just not gonna.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Happen. Well, let's talk about that relationship with Rosalynn. I mean, it was pretty uncomfortable to.

[Taja Lucky]

Watch. So, you know, Rosalind actually introduced me to Gal a long time ago, before we started filming, I think. Or maybe it was after we filmed the presentation. I can't exactly remember, but she invited me to Polo, which was very nice of her. And Gail, you know, we met Gail.

[Rachel Yukatel]

There.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. And Rosalind said, just, you know, she's very, like. She's, you know, I'm gonna. Rosalind introduced me as, like. Oh, you know, her husband is David Cohen. Cause I don't really, like. I don't, like, introduce myself that.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Way. No, but that's how you have to introduce yourself to.

[Taja Lucky]

Gayle. Right. So she said. She goes, I'm just doing that. Otherwise, she'll just be so mean to you and be like, you know, she only. And I'm like, okay, that's hard. But. So that was my first experience with Gayle, and she looks so familiar to me. I'm like, I know you from somewhere, but I guess it was from the Hamptons, you know? But anyway, she is like, great tv. I get it. And she does maybe has a good side, but her bad side is just too.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Much.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. Too.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Much. Well, I mean, I just. The whole thing was uncomfortable for me as a viewer to watch. Knowing her, knowing that is exactly how she is in real life, but knowing, like, she's the age of, like, you know, someone's parent or their grandparent. And I just think it's uncomfortable to watch that kind of person be such a social climber. That, to me, was what was like, you know, the thing that was like, oh, my God, this is going terribly because all the women started acting like.

[Taja Lucky]

That.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Exactly. And that became the show, which I guess is why the show, listen, is doing so well. There's, like, these two worlds that are colliding. Like, Palm beach is known as classy and quiet, and you hide your money, and you're members of these country clubs and these different places, and you don't talk about it. And here it's like the loudest of the loud, talking about how much they have and how important they are. And that's what I think is, like, going in the world here of why people are flipping out and why people are like, well, I would never be seen with that. I think people really need to calm down with that because it's a fun show. It's a fun show to watch. And the thing about it, though, is there is a reality side to everyone in the group, which is uncomfortable. So let's go through the group for a second. So, like, let's talk about Hillary, because everybody, you know, we start off the show, we see Hillary, they're trying to obviously make it seem like she is the real deal with the money. She's got a great home, she's got a great closet. Good. You know, all that stuff looks good. I thought it was a little weird she was married to a.

[Taja Lucky]

Doorman. I, I agree. I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Agree. I, I don't know why no more. People aren't talking about that more. I'm not being offensive. I just, I thought it was.

[Taja Lucky]

True. I, I, I mean, I, I mean, I don't know. I guess she fell in love with him, but she is a hopeless romantic, I guess. I mean, she's married Five.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Times. Well, you were the maid of honor. What do you think of the.

[Taja Lucky]

Honor? I mean, it's very hard to tell because, you know, I mean, I feel like he just really wants to be on tv, and they just really want to be on tv and is he a.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Chef? All he's doing is cooking in every.

[Taja Lucky]

Scene. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe he knows how to cook. I know she doesn't cook at all, so I guess, you know, maybe that's one of the reasons why she married him, too. Cause she didn't have to hire a chef.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Then.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. I don't.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Know. Well, do they seem in love? Like, do, do they spend a lot of.

[Taja Lucky]

Time? It's. I mean, sometimes, yes. Sometimes I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Don'T.

[Taja Lucky]

It's. It's very hard to tell, you know, it's like, it's hard. How can, like, they're very new to get, you know, they're newlyweds. They're still newlyweds, so I think they.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Can. Oh, they haven't known each other for a long.

[Taja Lucky]

Time. I don't think so. I think it's like two, three.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Years. Got.

[Taja Lucky]

It. Three years.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Maybe. But does he speak when you guys are in a room together, or. He's pretty.

[Taja Lucky]

Quiet. No, he.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Speaks. Oh, he.

[Taja Lucky]

Does. He speaks. And.

[Rachel Yukatel]

He'S. And is he.

[Taja Lucky]

Interesting? You know, I, I, I'm not too, you know, I'm not too impressed.

[Rachel Yukatel]

But, you know, you don't have much to.

[Taja Lucky]

Say. Yeah, I don't have much to.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Say.

[Taja Lucky]

Fine. I love Hillary.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Though. Yeah. I think she seems really.

[Taja Lucky]

Fun. I love Hillary, and we do have a lot in common. Yeah. But, you know, I do, I do. Like, you know, I would, I don't know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

I. How do you think she's coming off on the.

[Taja Lucky]

Show? I think she comes off good on the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Show. I.

[Taja Lucky]

Do. Okay. I like her.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Character. I mean, I think she also comes off similar to you in that she's like, I'm not gonna put up with bullshit, and this is.

[Taja Lucky]

Embarrassing. Yeah, she's real. I mean, you need legitimacy, too, on the show. Like, you can't have just everybody who's an SNL skit, you.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Know? Well, I do think also it's important for people that are not in Palm beach to remember that just because you are not on every social part of some social chair or you're in these charities, it doesn't mean that you're not part of, Of Palm Beach. People also have jobs and don't have time, and even if they don't have Jobs. Sometimes they like to do their. You know, they like to spend their life doing other things besides just going to a charity to be seen. I can attest that I don't like to go to a lot of these charities because it's just people that want to make sure they're seen. Seen in something. They don't even give a shit about the charity.

[Taja Lucky]

Right. Hillary prefers to donate under the radar. That's the way to do it. And that way was what, you know, Hillary and I. I mean, this scene didn't make it to the cutting room, but this was a great scene. It was me showing her a video of Rosalynn, like. And I was like, wait a minute. Is this real? Like, her saying, hi, I'm Rosalyn Yellen, and welcome to the iconic Mar A Lago Club. Like, I have done so many events. Like, David and I have a family foundation. It's actually his foundation. It's not mine. It's the David Cohen Foundation. And he's built a hospital like, he's from. Raised hundreds of millions of dollars. And I do events for his foundation all the time. And I do not put my face on the invitation. I don't talk about it. I don't brag about it. I just fill the room and raise money, but I don't go on. It's not for my notoriety. It's actually to raise money. So Hillary and I feel the same way about.

[Rachel Yukatel]

That. So it's interesting also because Rosalyn, you know, she makes a big deal about being the big social chair. And if you've read the news in the last 24 hours, it sounds like. And this could be all the media, but it sounds like Mar Lago is having a hard time with her being a member now because of what's going on, and she may be ousted. Do you think that's.

[Taja Lucky]

Real? 100%. And I think they had this trouble before the show even got it. We're trying to get her. I think she. I think she somehow got her membership. Like, she slipped through the radar or something. Cause she got it during COVID you know, when they couldn't give them away. You know what I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Mean?

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. And it's like, I just, you know, I mean, I don't see how, like, they're talking about Mar A Lago every second. I mean, listen, I love Mar A Lango. It's the most beautiful property on the island, in my opinion. But, like, I just don't get it. Like, they're talking about it.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Constantly. Yeah, they were. And I needed to ask a question. As a viewer. They. You showed a scene or they showed a scene from the billionaires club party gala, whatever it was. What billionaire was there? That didn't make any sense to.

[Taja Lucky]

Me. No, it's some global billionaire. That's another scene that Hillary, myself and sue shot that didn't make it. Which I also thought was a brilliant scene of us talking about, like, what is this Global Bill? It's just another, like, it was.

[Rachel Yukatel]

So obvious it made no.

[Taja Lucky]

Sense. Exactly. It's like, what is.

[Rachel Yukatel]

This? And then speaking of the Rosalind and the Gayle situation from before, we see her get a bit. We see her get a book. That's not a real thing. Like, I don't know if people realize this is not like a historical thing, that in Palm beach somebody passes an actual baton. No one's ever heard of it. And it's a big.

[Taja Lucky]

Joke.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. I mean, did you guys. Were you when you saw that, were you like, what is happening.

[Taja Lucky]

Here? Yes, I was like, are you in a marching band? In a high school marching.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Done. Oh, my goodness, Talk about Soubel. What are your thoughts on Sous.

[Taja Lucky]

Belle? I love Soubel is a class action. She's beautiful. She is. I just. I love Subel. She's iconic. She's truly iconic. She knows how to carry herself. She's. I love Sue.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Belle. Got it. Okay. So you hope that she comes back and that she's on.

[Taja Lucky]

It. I do.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay. Well, they made it almost seem like she just kind of came in and said a few different lines. And you weren't sure if it was because she couldn't do more than that or, you know. Cause I feel like she is a big, you know, she's well known on Instagram, and they thought that that would throw a little, like, celebrity, like, influencer in there. But she holds her, is what you're.

[Taja Lucky]

Saying. I think so, but I'm not sure if she wants to, you know, participate.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Anymore.

[Taja Lucky]

Anymore. Yeah.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. Do you think she's embarrassed.

[Taja Lucky]

Of. I'm not sure, but I think she's great TV and I think she's gorgeous. So I don't know, but I. You know, we'll see. I hope she comes back. She was at the premiere. I was so happy to see.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Her. Oh, that's.

[Taja Lucky]

Nice.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes. Good. Okay, let's talk about DJ Tumble's Maria. Are you friendly.

[Taja Lucky]

With. Yeah, I brought her.

[Rachel Yukatel]

On. Okay. Now, she was a DJ at Avalon. That's how I know who she.

[Taja Lucky]

Is. Right. That's how I knew who she was, too. She DJ'd in, like, you know, I mean, I don't really hang out in those places, but I would see her on Instagram, and I thought she was adorable. You know, I just think she's cute, and she has a look and a Persona.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. And her and Romina seem to be the two that everybody kind of comes down on to make them feel like they're not worthy, they're too loud, they're too much, the boobs, the whatever. And what do you think of that? Like, how do you think they got cast if they were so not, quote unquote, Members Only Palm.

[Taja Lucky]

Beach. So I think it's like, you know, I think they're trying to show, like, who are, you know, the members and who are not. I don't know. I think that's kind of what they're trying to show, you know? So.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay, what do you think is gonna happen going forward? Is there a season.

[Taja Lucky]

Two? I hope so, and I think there will I think there will be. I definitely think there will be. My psychic said there will.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Be. Oh, okay. I don't.

[Taja Lucky]

Know. I don't know. But, you know, we haven't heard anything yet. I hope there will be because I do think it's pure entertainment. And, you know, people, no matter what the audience says, they're still watching. So, you know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. And I do want you to kind of address. Actually we started at the beginning, but for all these people that the biggest commentary seems to be, this is not representative of Palm Beach. Can you just clarify your thoughts on that and why people have that.

[Taja Lucky]

Wrong? So they do have it wrong because it actually is representative of Palm beach because there are a lot of people like Romina and Maria around Palm beach who really wanna go to the clubs. I'm not gonna even mention the names of the clubs, you know, but they do want to be in the world of Palm Beach. They do. Right. And that's why they moved here. Yeah. So it's not. It's not. Not that nobody. Nobody is claiming that the cast is only people who were born and raised on the island. Right. Nobody is claiming that. We said Palm beach county always. And Palm beach county is a. Is a big place. Yeah.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Who would you like to see brought back and who would you like to see added or taken away for next season, if you have.

[Taja Lucky]

One? I don't know. I think that it's too new to remove anyone now. I think everybody should come back. That's what I think. But, you know, I'm not the producer. If it was my show, I would bring everybody back. Maybe except for Gayle. But, you know, she really is good.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Tv. Do you think she'll be added as a full time.

[Taja Lucky]

Cast? I don't know. I really have no idea. I think she's too much of a liability. But, you know, that's not up to me. You know, that's up.

[Rachel Yukatel]

To. The other thing that people talk about. A lot that I've seen is the extreme wealth in this cast. I will say that I know from knowing a couple of these people that's not even the.

[Taja Lucky]

Case.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Correct. So there is extreme wealth in Palm.

[Taja Lucky]

Beach. Oh.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes. There's extreme wealth in a lot of the places that you show the people that are in there and associated with.

[Taja Lucky]

It. It's not the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Cast. It is not the cast. And I think that's important to point out and not that there's anything wrong with this. I don't. That's not even a.

[Taja Lucky]

Thing. There's nobody that's a billionaire on our cast. Right, right. In a.

[Rachel Yukatel]

League. And by the way, there are scenes that are shot that I don't even know really are part of where people live, I mean, is that. I'm not gonna accuse anything, but a lot of the scenes that show very extravagant areas where people who don't come from a lot of money are being. Are sitting in. I don't even know that that's where they.

[Taja Lucky]

Live. Well, they put me in, like, they put my background. That's not my.

[Rachel Yukatel]

House. Right. But I know you live in a very nice.

[Taja Lucky]

House. I do. And I actually also have a condo on the beach, you know, Cause. Instead. And both of them members only clubs, you know, both where. You know, both of my residences are in members only.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Clubs.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. So, yeah, I don't. I don't. I mean, no, Roslyn, I think they showed her house. She has a very nice.

[Rachel Yukatel]

House. She has a beautiful house. She lives in, like, Boca.

[Taja Lucky]

Right? Yeah, she lives in Highland.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Beach. Yeah. But again, people talk about Highland.

[Taja Lucky]

Beach. Highland Beach.

[Rachel Yukatel]

County. Yes. Yeah, but Highland beach is closer to, like, Fort Lauderdale or.

[Taja Lucky]

Boca.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Again, not that there's anything wrong with.

[Taja Lucky]

It. Yes.

[Rachel Yukatel]

But. And I think that that has been the anger. I mean, have you seen anger? Do you watch the. Do you read those.

[Taja Lucky]

Comments? I don't have time, but I'm hearing. I hear, yes, but I just don't know why they're angry because again, nobody has claimed that this is Palm beach, the island, you know, like, Palm beach county is very.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Big. Well, I think as you guys were filming it, did you know that this was gonna be about Palm Beach? I mean, I do hear you guys mention a lot. This is not the class of Palm Beach. This is not how Palm beach people act. So I think.

[Taja Lucky]

That. That I never said any of that because I act appropriately. No town I'm in. You know what I mean? Like, it doesn't matter. I could be in, you know, Kensington palace, and I act appropriately. Right. And that's more prestigious than Palm Beach. Right. Excuse me. But, you know, And I've been.

[Rachel Yukatel]

There.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. So anyway, I'm not like, nobody. Like, I know how to behave no matter where I am. Right. But there are a lot of people in Palm beach that don't. And there are a lot of people that do. And I have, like, you. I'm sure I have a lot of friends who are, like, the real Palm Beachers. Yeah. And yes, none of them are on the show. That is.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Correct. And none of them probably want to be. But let's be honest. A Lot of people don't. First of all, if somebody says they don't want to be on a show like that, I would highly question their answer, because I think most people would want to be on any kind of reality show, because most people do like that kind of attention. I think if people were honest, the reason why they're not is because of the closets that. The skeletons in their closets that they don't want to have.

[Taja Lucky]

Open. And also, you know what I mean? Like, listen, I always wanted to be on tv. Like, that's a fact. Always, since I'm a little girl. So I. You know, like, I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Love. So you're loving.

[Taja Lucky]

This? Yes, I love it. I mean, and I think I'm made for.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Tv. You are. You do a great job. But do you feel embarrassed being with this cast or you're proud of it and you.

[Taja Lucky]

Feel. I think they're entertaining? I do. I mean, but do I. Do I think that they overdid it with those scenes? Yeah, I don't think. I think the storyline should be different next.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Season.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. I don't think that anybody wants to see. To see Romina being, you know, I mean, poor Romina. Like, she could be. She could be, you know, groomed to be what she wants to be. But she's being mentored by the two clowns on Palm.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Beach.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. I mean, come on. Like, that can't. That cannot.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Be. Well, that didn't even make any sense to me that she would want to be groomed by.

[Taja Lucky]

Them. I mean, I don't get that. If anybody should be grooming her, it should be me and Hillary, not those.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Two. And by the way, I was pretty proud of her for holding her own in some of those scenes where she was like, I'm not gonna dress like.

[Taja Lucky]

That. I think she. I think that she. Yeah, but, like, she chose the wrong people to mentor her. Yeah, but. Yeah, at least she didn't follow their.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Lead.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Now, is that a real thing? I mean, I've never heard of women being mentored just to, like, fit in. I mean, I was thinking of putting my 13 year old in classes about stuff like that and how to dance with a.

[Taja Lucky]

Boy. Well, none of them have proper.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Etiquette. Well.

[Taja Lucky]

Right. I'm the only one.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Really. But was that a real thing? I mean, is Romina going through etiquette climbing, or was that for the.

[Taja Lucky]

Chat? No, she really. That person was really an etiquette.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Coach. Oh, my.

[Taja Lucky]

Gosh. But I don't understand why she agreed to appear with Gayle and Rosalind. Because if she knows proper etiquette, she would have noticed right away that those two don't.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Well, of course, the other funny thing to me was watching that scene where they do the T, where they go into some. I don't even know the name of.

[Taja Lucky]

It.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. And they go to. And they all look ridiculous in their. And everybody's wearing these over the top dresses. And I've been with that.

[Taja Lucky]

Crew. Me.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Too.

[Taja Lucky]

Again. Again, they're all from New York. We know them from New York.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Hamptons. And these are the girls who thought that they were gonna be on.

[Taja Lucky]

Snowbirds. Snowbirds.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yes. So they've just been hanging around each other hoping the show was gonna get picked up and probably were so excited that they were part of this.

[Taja Lucky]

Scene.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Exactly. It made me feel claustrophobic watching the six of them or whoever sitting in this room with their big Kentucky Derby hats having this tea. What the hell could they possibly have been talking about? It was so. It made me uncomfortable to watch that scene. And they were talking about how loud Rowena. Romina. Romina was in the bathroom at Mar a Lago. And oh my God, like just. It was. To me, it was just such an uncomfortable scene because you can't talk to people like that. I mean, if I were her, I would have stood up and be like, who the hell are you guys? You know, and it was really unfortunate. Well, she.

[Taja Lucky]

Did. She did, you know, defend herself. And I thought that scene was funny. Cause you know what, myself and Romina really love tea because it's part of our cultures. So she does love tea. And I think that was very funny how she sipped on the tea and she's like, oh, I'm sorry, am I too loud? I thought that was funny. I mean, the rest of them, you know, I could really, like. Cause they're doing. They're trying to teach Romina how to sip on tea, like with proper etiquette.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Like. Like she's a 13 year.

[Taja Lucky]

Old. Have proper etiquette. Right, right. So that's. That's the. But I think that that's the funny part of it. I think. You know, I think it. I really do think it's.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Funny. And I think why people get so angry is. Cause they don't get that, like, no one's in on the joke except for the people sort of in the show, even though they think that this is their. Their real life. So give me. Can you give me a couple tidbits on what we haven't seen? Like, are there real rifts between people? Are there Things that we haven't seen, that missed, you know, that didn't show. That is important for the viewers to.

[Taja Lucky]

Know. I mean, there is a real rift now between me and Gayle because, I mean, first of all, like, everything I do, they copy me. So I did the premiere, and then she got thrown out because she was under the influence and misbehaving with her etiquette. She was not. That's not how you behave at a beautiful event. Like, I threw. And then she was. Went and tried to do her own and did it. My exact invitation. And is talking about me all over. About, like, saying crazy things, you know? So there is a real rift between us because she is guilty of walking into my event in a very, you know, aggressive way.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Right. Well, I think she's probably hoping to get cast for the next season.

[Taja Lucky]

And continuing to do that. I'm sure she will. Yeah, I'm sure she will. Um, and there is definitely a real rift between Hillary and.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Rosalyn.

[Taja Lucky]

Yeah. I mean, that's for real. I mean, I'm the one who tried to bring them.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Together. Yeah. So. And just quickly, you know, they both have done podcasts. I listened to Heather's podcast with Hillary. I don't necessarily think she's talked so badly, more than she even did on the show. So I.

[Taja Lucky]

Didn'T. She just said the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Truth. Yeah. So I didn't understand what was the. On the vial files. What was the problem? Like, I didn't understand why Rosalynn. I keep getting her name wrong. Was so upset and talking about her past and how somebody beat her.

[Taja Lucky]

Up because she got caught in a big lie. In a big, fat lie. And now she's playing the victim, but she's not the.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Victim. Got.

[Taja Lucky]

It. And Hillary is not the attacker. Got it.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. Okay. So what do you hope for next.

[Taja Lucky]

Season? I hope that we get a season two, and I have a lot of amazing things planned for season two. You know.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Regarding. Within your own.

[Taja Lucky]

Storyline. Right. With whether we get a season two or not. Like, I have amazing things coming up in my life on season two. I mean, whatever in your life that could be filmed in, like, this season of this Palm beach season. Because it is a very seasonal.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Place.

[Taja Lucky]

Yes. You know, it's not. It's like, it really is a seasonal place. So I have a lot going on for this Palm beach season. You know, know, like, amazing events and launches and, you know, just collaborations. Like, a lot. A lot of fun.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Stuff.

[Taja Lucky]

Okay. And I would hope to see more of me and my.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Story. Do you agree that people should come on the show knowing that they have a product that they want to promote. Like, has. Has all of a sudden everybody been coming to your spa or that kind of thing? Do people want you to open up a.

[Taja Lucky]

Restaurant? We've always been busy, like, because I've been there for a long time now, you know, like, I've been there almost seven years, of course. But, yeah, I mean, I'm definitely getting a lot more attention, and I have projects that I'm already working on that could certainly give me more leverage, you know, but nothing happened, like, after the show or because of the show. But, you know, for sure, this platform is undeniably amazing. I mean, it's Netflix.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Yeah. It opens doors. And the fact that it's, like, top 10 is unbelievable. I'm really proud of you for everything you've.

[Taja Lucky]

Accomplished. I mean, thank you. And I think the producers are genius. Obviously, there's, you know, some brilliance behind.

[Rachel Yukatel]

This. Yeah. When do you think you'll find out if the next season is.

[Taja Lucky]

Happening? I'm not sure. I think maybe in a couple weeks.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Okay. All right, well, tell our listeners where they can find you. What. What kind of things you have coming up that they can be a part of and follow your journey.

[Taja Lucky]

On. Right. Okay. So you can find me at my personal Instagram, which is Taja Lucky, and then my wellness centers, my actual brick and mortars are. Are Taja Drip, and I have one in the Faina Hotel. And hopefully gonna open in Faina, New York. Cause they just opened in New York. And the. I'm opening in West Palm. And, like, very soon I'll be interested.

[Rachel Yukatel]

In. I need.

[Taja Lucky]

[Rachel Yukatel]

[Taja Lucky]

Stuff. Yes, just the same. The same. Instagram and, you know, all my Instagrams and my website, you can.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Find. And people can just book you.

[Taja Lucky]

Directly. Yes. And not me. My nurses. Yes. And then my product launch is here. And you can find that also, like, I have an ingest, like, a liquid formula that is called turn back time. And it's a very robust formula that you take daily. And, you know, the results are.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Undeniable. Like, energy flow in your skin, your.

[Taja Lucky]

Age. Exactly what it says. Like, turn back time. Okay. And is that what you take? Yes, I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Do. I mean, I cannot tell you how good your skin.

[Taja Lucky]

Looks. Thank.

[Rachel Yukatel]

You. Really? So people should buy.

[Taja Lucky]

This. Yes, they should buy it. And they should come in to physically get our treatments because they really work again. I'm going to host you soon, I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Hope. I would love.

[Taja Lucky]

That. And also, you Know, I have a lot of things in the, you know, in the works. Like I, my ultimate goal is to open my own hotel. Brand Top hotel, Wellness and longevity.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Hotel. Oh, I love.

[Taja Lucky]

That. Palm beach for a location and New York and like, so that's my ultimate.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Goal. I love that. Would you even do that outside of the.

[Taja Lucky]

Country? Yes, I, I'm looking, I'm actually working with people in, you know, Middle East, Dubai and like, so I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Have. Because I know a lot of people that have gone to Panama or Mexico or whatever and are doing those kind of experiences where you can go down and be on the beach and, and get well while you're on.

[Taja Lucky]

Vacation. Yes. So I love that for you. But my, it's not just about the treatments. I mean from like beginning to end, like in the floors, in the walls, of course, in the bedsheets and the shower heads and like, you know, it's all about, you know, being like in a wellness, longevity environment, toxin free, that it doesn't exist even. Yeah. What I'm gonna.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Do. I can't wait to see all this. I know you will accomplish.

[Taja Lucky]

It. I.

[Rachel Yukatel]

Know. Last question for you. What is the most misunderstood thing about this.

[Taja Lucky]
