Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Brian: The Scene-Stealer & His "Doctor Secrets"

[02:39–06:24]

• Courtney is obsessed with Brian this week: “Two tequila shots is the combo to get into Brian’s vault.” (02:42)
• Brian’s Confessions: Under the influence, Brian proclaims his use of microdosed Ozempic, steroids for weight balance, and Botox:
  “I microdose ozempic when I’m feeling a little flubby. When I get too thin, I do some steroids. Oh, I’m feeling a little jowly, I add the botox. I gotta try the product.” (03:06, quoted by Mary)
• Doubling Down on Honesty: The hosts love a doctor who tries their own wares.
• Brian’s Life:
  • Living a double life—married but bringing “the girlfriend” around as if it’s normal (04:00).
  • Joellen’s interview confirmed Brian was bold about his relationships, leading the hosts to label him “a giver…to more than one person—his marriage and his girlfriend.” (03:42, Mary)
• Dinner Scene:
  • Hosts note everyone pushing around the strawberry salad—implying the group’s all on Ozempic.
  • “Nobody was touched in that delicious strawberry salad... because they’re all sampling the product.” (05:34, Mary)

2. Alicia & Billy: Marital Finances & Driving Phobia

[06:29–11:41]

• Alicia’s fear of driving is a comic highlight—her ritual of pre-drive self-soothing includes rose water, peppermint oil, crackers, and Britney Spears.
  “I need the cracker…where is my rose water...get Britney Spears on the playlist.” (07:09, Courtney)
• The bridge that terrifies Alicia is barely a bump, which has Mary comparing it to the Golden Gate and Brooklyn Bridges for laughs (07:42).
• Courtney and Mary speculate on Alicia’s financial autonomy after a cryptic Instagram “dirty delete” story:
  • “Do you think if it’s okay if your spouse takes your money and pays bills without asking and you never see your money or check?” (09:00, Alicia’s IG)
• They wonder if Billy is financially controlling or Alicia is planning for independence via RHORI (10:07–11:09).
• Brand deals vs. restaurant work: Hosts point out influencer income eclipses Billy's restaurant profits (11:09), riffing on Ashley I’s superior earnings.

3. Liz & Dolores: Faded Storylines & Menopause on Bravo

[12:03–13:46]

• Liz is losing the hosts’ interest, despite her attempt to bring menopause-centered narratives into reality TV.
• “I’m over Liz. And that’s crazy to say...” – Mary (12:13)
• Courtney jokes about feeling like Breaking Bad at the dispensary, referencing Bravo’s variety of storylines (12:37).
• The conversation veers into other TV obsessions, notably the show “Off Campus.”

4. Rosie & Kelsey: Friendship Breakdown & Timeline Confusion

[19:45–25:09, 26:13–33:26, 42:18–52:20]

• Working Out with Richie: Richie tells Rosie: “Speak your truth. Don’t let them walk all over you.” (19:59)
• The hosts dissect the puzzle of Kelsey’s timeline—when did she and her rich ex break up?
  • "I definitely think that Kelsey and the rich guy broke up two years ago." – Courtney (20:37)
• Rosie’s escalating tension with Kelsey is explored in detail; the hosts dissect “the fight at the house,” from the intercom arrival to thrown bags and screaming (44:53–51:51).
  • Kelsey’s “reads” flop; Rosie brags about her real estate, throws out Kelsey, and doesn't hold back her feelings.
  • “Sucking dick is not a career. And the rumor is you might have gotten fired for doing that.” – Mary quoting Rosie (48:41)
• Kelsey’s iconic retort after fight:
  • “By the way, I won that pageant, fair and square.” (50:36, Kelsey)
• The infamous “Miss Slam Pig” sash is celebrated as a hilarious comeback preview (52:01–52:02).
• Both hosts feel for Rosie, opining she needs an ally, but also unpack how the fight got personal fast and may be irreparable.

5. Behind-the-Scenes: Joellen and Her Mother—Family Pain on Camera

[28:43–33:26]

• Joellen’s emotional confrontation with her mother over childhood trauma is analyzed.
  • Hosts note the mother’s lack of accountability:
    “My least favorite apology is, like, sorry if your feelings were hurt...” (29:38, Mary)
  • Joellen’s plea for true acknowledgment and the mother’s deflections frustrate the hosts.
  • The difficulties and risks of airing family rifts on reality TV are acknowledged; public perception versus private pain is a recurring theme.

6. Kelsey: Money, Men, and “Papa” Exes

[24:18–26:08]

• Kelsey’s new apartment tour: speculation about her finances when her ex is still footing bills.
  • "He’s literally her papa. Yes, he’s her sugar daddy." – Mary (24:37)
• The logistics of her living situation grow murkier as hosts wonder when the breakup and move happened (25:09–25:18).

7. Ashley I: Influencer Hustle vs. Traditional Business

[26:13–28:43]

• Ashley’s influencer deals are envied but also critiqued (“showing a box, reading a script... to get paid five figures?” – Mary, 26:30)
• The contrast between social media earnings and her husband Jeremy’s restaurant woes stirs a “do what pays” argument, with Courtney sympathizing with Ashley’s burden (27:40–28:27).

8. Rula & Brian: Realness or Reality TV Fakery?

[37:29–41:14]

• Courtney becomes suspicious over Rula’s “hospital photo,” convinced it’s staged:
  • “I have convinced myself she went to the hospital, found a bed in the hallway, she's wearing her own pajamas…” (37:29)
• The hosts are increasingly skeptical of everything involving Brian and Rula—relationship dynamics, wealth, and the extent of their candidness.
  • “Maybe they're just in throuples. Maybe they're both ... Rula gets off on the fact that Brian sneaks around, but she's in on it.” (39:53, Mary)
  • Brian’s approach to “testing his own products” becomes a running joke for a would-be cheater’s tequila sponsor (54:27–54:51).

[Courtney]

Welcome back to two judgy girls. This is Mary from the Bay and

[Mary]

it's Courtney from la. These ladies of Rhode island, they are giving it to us week after week.

[Courtney]

I am so obsessed with them. I'm actually obsessed with Brian this week. I love watching this man. I mean, seeing his doctor secrets, that was probably my favorite part of the entire episode. He was wasted like chatty cathy. Two tequila shots is the combo to get into Brian's vault.

[Mary]

Two tequila shots, one martini. Then he switched to a different vodka drink. That man was like, oh, dear God. And he was making me giggle. He said, yeah, I gotta try the product. I microdose ozempic when I'm feeling a little flubby. When I get too thin, I do some steroids. Oh, I'm feeling a little jowly. I add the botox. I gotta try the product.

[Courtney]

Theirs was, like, so endearing to me for some reason.

[Mary]

We love an adulterer.

[Courtney]

I love a doctor that uses the products on themselves. Okay? I appreciate someone that is buying what they're selling. He's testing it.

[Mary]

It's. He's a giver, you know, to more than one person. His marriage and his girlfriend.

[Courtney]

You guys have to listen to our Joe Ellen interview because, wow. I feel like she gave a lot of tidbits. She's like, oh, Brian would bring the girlfriend. We're gonna call her the girlfriend, not the mistress to our club all the time. Gary would see them all the time at the club. I would see them out on dates. Apparently, he showed her divorce papers, gave her a ring, introduced the girlfriend to his family. Like, why would this woman not think this is real?

[Mary]

Why does she have part ownership in one of his companies? We didn't even touch that with joellen.

[Courtney]

Such a good point.

[Mary]

But I think if I'm the mistress girlfriend, I'm thinking there's something going on here completely.

[Courtney]

Brian had me cackling. I also feels like because he's living a double life, you can tell when he's gonna go to this other life because he looks directly into the camera. He's like, oh, I just got a text from my mistress. Did you guys hear that? Do you guys see this? I'm just gonna go to the bathroom. Oh, hey, guys. That work call,

[Mary]

Like, even Alicia, who I would say lives on the naive side and maybe doesn't pick up all nuances, is like, wait, was it the bathroom or a work call? She's like, I'm definitely not showing the video tonight.

[Courtney]

I knew she wasn't gonna go to that dinner and have showed the video or bring it to the table at the dinner. Could you imagine sitting at someone's home and saying, so I got this video. I If I was Alicia, I would have done the exact same thing. I would have shown up to work and kept my mouth quiet.

[Mary]

I mean, what do they say? Don't shoot the messenger? Because obviously the messenger gets shot so often.

[Courtney]

I know, I know.

[Mary]

She said, I don't think so. Also, what was funny about this dinner scene, too, is now that I know Brian has all the secrets, Brian is dealing out ozempic to everyone. Nobody was touched in that delicious strawberry salad with, I'm assuming, a raspberry vinaigrette dressed on top.

[Courtney]

Sounds delish.

[Mary]

They were moving that around to make it look like they had taken a bite because they're all sampling the product.

[Courtney]

I appreciate the honesty.

[Mary]

It was making me laugh. Like, that dinner, I was like, I want, like, the bloopers. I want whatever made it to the cutting room floor. I want more of that. He really was making me crack up. And now I. After talking to Joellen about this relationship, like, I am invested. I want to watch more Brian scenes. I think it's ridiculous, and I need more.

[Courtney]

No, we just got to give him two tequila shots before every scene.

[Mary]

Yeah. And you got to get to that country club.

[Courtney]

It was too good. It was too good. Also, just, there's so much nostalgia. Like, I feel like this is old school because we're going into their homes and having dinner. Like, we're not meeting up at a restaurant. This huge party. It feels a little bit more like real life. And even the top of the episode, watching Billy and Alicia just drive like this reminded me of Teresa and Joe driving around New Jersey. So let's talk about this drive, because Alicia has a fear of driving, you know, but she has some things to supplement.

[Mary]

She ran over a woman, Mary.

[Courtney]

This is very true. This is exposure therapy. But before she gets into the car, she's like, billi, Billi, come over here. Look at this. Four leaf clover. And Billy's like, that's literally poison oak. Don't touch that, Alicia. And she's just, like, immediately stressed out. She gets in the car. I need the cracker. I need the cracker. Like, where is my rose water? I'm gonna put that on my face. I need the peppermint oil to calm me down. A little gum. Get Britney Spears on the playlist. I need a good playlist to get us there. Her daughter literally roots her on to drive her to dance. Because there's just one bridge. We saw the bridge. Is it even a bridge?

[Mary]

It didn't look like that big of a bridge. It wasn't like the Golden Gate Bridge, if you will. It wasn't like the Brooklyn Bridge. It wasn't what I would think is a large bridge. It looked like it was maybe going over a lake.

[Courtney]

It didn't seem like much to me. And she conquered her fears, and now she can drive her daughter to dance.

[Mary]

Slow down. Baby steps, Mary. Because, like, Billy's all excited because Billy's got to take daughter to dance five days a week. He's got like nine restaurants running. Alicia, just buy a car with autopilot.

[Courtney]

So true. So true.

[Mary]

Hands free time for filling them with crackers.

[Courtney]

The only thing is, so when you do the self driving, you have to still keep your hands on the wheels. They'll get mad at you and it like dings.

[Mary]

Ding, ding, ding.

[Courtney]

Like put your hands on the wheels. Put your hands on the wheel. And they'll take it off if you don't have your hands in the wheels.

[Mary]

Okay, fine. So eat the crackers before. Yeah, put it in autopilot. Self driving and then put your hands at 10 and 2.

[Courtney]

There you go.

[Mary]

There you go. I. I'm just trying to help.

[Courtney]

You're giver.

[Mary]

Can I talk about these dirty delete stories, though, that Alicia posted on Friday?

[Courtney]

Wait, what? I love a dirty delete, though.

[Mary]

It's tough. Alicia said, now I. I'm going to be reading this word for word. This is not me stuttering. This is just how it is written. Okay, so these are Alicia's stories. Story one, asking for a friend. Do you think if it's okay if your spouse takes your money and pays bills without asking and you never see your money or your check?

[Courtney]

Whoa. Okay, so she's talking about her Rhode island check. Mm.

[Mary]

Well, she's asking for a friend. Story two, asking for a friend. Do you think It's a normal 4, 4, someone to put your face and use your image and story for a business that you don't see a dollar from?

[Jake Stauch]

Wow.

[Courtney]

I would be very curious how their banking is. Like, does Billy have a bank account for Alicia that he puts money in? Do you know what I mean? It doesn't sound like joint checking because she's literally said, someone's taking my checks and putting them in the bank and I'm not seeing them.

[Mary]

Is this financial abuse? Which friend is this? Alicia. I'm like, oh, my God, pizza mama. What happened?

[Courtney]

It makes me laugh because I can't imagine that Billi has Instagram or anything like that. He feels like someone off of social media.

[Mary]

Yeah. There was no tag for the friend's partner. He deleted those pretty fast. So shout out to whoever caught that. But I do worry because I think they're kind of cute. I want them to last. But it does feel like she might have come on this show to build her financial freedom.

[Courtney]

Cracker deals, get away from Billy, have the courage to do it, have a paycheck from the show. I definitely agree with that. Although I'm rooting for them. I. I want them to be together. They have that sweet daughter together. And I would love for Billy to come around. And it's also, like, she's making her own money now, Billie. And she deserves 50% of his businesses, the house. And guess what? She's going to be very successful right now. So it might be something you want to be involved in as well, Billy.

[Mary]

You want to cash in. As we learned from Ashley, I in this episode, restaurant not as lucrative as brand deals on Instagram. Okay. Ashley, I and Jared could book three deals. And the amount that they make from that is way more than Audrey takes home in a year.

[Courtney]

Okay. My dream is this summer. I'm gonna go to Boston, and my dream is to go to Rhode island for one night, hit up all the spots.

[Mary]

Dinner at Pizza Mama and Espresso Tini at Audrey's.

[Courtney]

I would love that.

[Mary]

You have to do that.

[Courtney]

I know. I gotta make sure, like, we can get someone to watch Charlie.

[Mary]

Bring him.

[Courtney]

It's okay. I'd like a night away.

[Mary]

Maybe you could stay at the Sea View Terrace. It's haunted.

[Courtney]

I. I love Newport. I love Rhode Island. It's such a beautiful place.

[Mary]

Okay, wait. I want to talk about Liz a little bit because she was barely in this episode.

[Courtney]

Now, how did you feel about Dolores and Liz, this scene together?

[Mary]

I'm having a problem because I'm over Liz. And that's crazy to say. I know, because it's only been a few episodes, but I'm just. There's something I'm just not getting on board with. I like that Rhode island is the first state that is actively taking in menopause and recognizing that as, like, a life change, a life event. And I think it's great, but I guess I just am not invested in Liz anymore. Is that weird?

[Courtney]

I just got this, like, really big, like, Breaking Bad moment when we were in there. I was like, oh, my God, we're literally at a drug dispensary. Is it only weed? There was a. It was a lap. I watched Breaking Bad not that long ago. I watched it when Charlie was first born because that's what a normal mother does. Watches a drug dealing show.

[Mary]

You taught him young. You're not living this life, Charlie. Okay?

[Courtney]

You'll never be Jesse Pinkman.

[Mary]

I never watched Breaking Bad, Courtney. But. But I've watched the finale because. Because it was such a. Like, an event. This is like when you used to have weekly shows and there'd be these big events, right? It's like, I think about all these season finales that we would all tune in at the same time.

[Courtney]

Of course. Of course.

[Mary]

And I hadn't watched it, but I knew, like, the players. I knew the general game. And so I was like, well, if I don't watch this, I won't be a loser. Everyone's gonna be talking about it.

[Courtney]

This might be something that you should download to go on the way to Italy.

[Mary]

I have literally no desire. I've seen the finale. I know how it ends.

[Courtney]

Do you remember?

[Mary]

I'm not invested in enough in it to go back. There's too much content. I'm really into right now, you guys. This show called Off Campus. It's on Amazon Prime. It's the new like ya show. It's like the new. The summer I turn pretty set in college. This girl really likes this guy, and she's lost her scholarship, so she's freaking out about how she's going to pay for college next year. And then there's the star hockey player, and he's failing this class and he needs to pass it. And she is really smart, Mary. So she'll tutor him and he'll pay her, and then he's gonna help her get the guy. And it's like, hijinks ensue.

[Courtney]

I love it. I love it. Hockey is so in right now. It's almost as in as watching Bravo tv.

[Mary]

Yeah, so I started that the other day, and I'm gonna finish that on the plane.

[Courtney]

I've heard great things.

[Mary]

Yeah, I like it so far. I did two episodes.

[Courtney]

Quints.com Judgy I'm not kidding when I say this. I could not wait to get home from vacation to sleep in my own bed. And it's entirely because of how much I love my Bowen Branch sheets. They are life changing. Before my bedding situation was fine, but you know the little things that start to add up. The sheets were pilling the corners, popping off the mattress in the middle of the night. That's the absolute worst. Pillows going flat and the bed somehow was getting too warm. Nothing terrible, but it just like wasn't great. And then we switched to bowl and Branc can feel the quality immediately. The sheets are unbelievably soft, very breathable. They don't trap heat, they don't slide around, and they somehow get softer with every wash. Our bed just feels more comfortable and inviting at the end of the day, like a place you actually want to crawl into. It's one of those upgrades you don't realize you needed until you have it and then you can't imagine going back. If a friend asked you for a bedding recommendation, I couldn't tell you more great things about bowl and Branch. It truly changed my sleeping Upgrade your sleep with bowl and branch.

[Courtney]

Okay, then we get Rosie and Richie working out. She loves those moon shoes. I really, really like Rich. I feel like he gave her great advice. He's like, speak your truth. Don't let them walk all over you. And I think I'm on Rosie's side. Where do you lie?

[Mary]

See, I'm with you. I want to be on Rosie's side. But I do think she went a little extreme. But I'm also like, I get it though. She was just so pissed. She just started seeing red that Kelsey thought that they had made a breakthrough, that she could joke around with her, even though it's rooted in jealousy still. And like, Rosie just saw red and was like, you're not gonna do. She already felt like she was on the defensive. This was her offering an olive branch. And then Kelsey just like took it and broke it by making a Joke.

[Courtney]

Also very interesting because I definitely think that Kelsey and the. The rich guy broke up two years ago. 2. I am hearing things that they broke up like two years ago. He let her film there. But this makes so much more sense in my mind because I'm like, yeah, how and Billy like thickest thieves together now.

[Mary]

Right.

[Courtney]

You know, I really need the timeline there. It just isn't adding up.

[Mary]

And she's not as devastated as I feel like somebody should be leaving a 10 year relationship, even though I know she has another man. But yeah, there's. There's details being left out of that relationship. I'm totally with you. And so then I'm like, are you making me dumb as the audience member? Because I'm supposed to believe that we don't like feeling dumb.

[Courtney]

We do not. We don't want to be lied to. And you could also have gone on the show and been like, I just got out of this relationship. I used to live in this mansion. And then maybe they show some footage from the mansion, you know.

[Mary]

But would it be as good of a storyline though?

[Courtney]

I. It's so interesting that she wanted to like broadcast this relationship if, if it was so far removed as well. Like, it's kind of embarrassing, right?

[Mary]

I think so too. But I think it's also trying to show a different lifestyle. Like you think that she wants everyone to see her in this one bedroom apartment.

[Courtney]

Well, it was kind of interesting too when we had on Joellen. Joellen had like booked the show when she was pregnant. And it looks like on the show when they're filming it, the daughter looks almost like a year old at that point. So I'm like, did she book the show when she was in a relationship with that guy and they broke up and then she was like, I still need to show that that's why they want me on the show.

[Mary]

Oh, that's a good point.

[Courtney]

So that's it. My mind's kind of like I all of you racing a little bit. Yeah, of course, of course. I need the details. Yeah.

[Mary]

There's something odd about it. And I thought Rosie was trying. She's had such anxiety and throwing up from the stress on the Ozempic and she's trying to figure out how to like fit in more with this group. And I've said too, that trio, Ashley, I, Rosie and Kelsey would be a strong trio if they could get along, but it doesn't feel like that's going to be happening. And Rosie's just like on her back foot within this group too. She doesn't have the relationships like the other girls do. She's like, I think we made progress. And then she's afraid, though, if I think we've made progress, I'm gonna let her cut my hair. I'll post about it, whatever. And then I started thinking about this. Why didn't Kelsey take a photo? Kelsey has a makeup and hair page on Instagram. Why didn't she take a photo and then ask Rosie to collab on that post? She should have.

[Courtney]

She definitely should have. Also, I kept on thinking, if they hadn't gotten in the fight that they got into, like, that Kelsey was gonna still give her the haircut and she was gonna, like, ruin her hair.

[Mary]

No, that would be a terrible idea, because then that would be bad for business.

[Courtney]

But it. It had me kind of laughing, like, to myself. I'm like, oh, are they gonna, like, sit in that chair? And she's like, oh, sorry.

[Mary]

Yeah, I did think, like, it was brave to allow scissors around her. Like, I would have just asked for a blowout for sure.

[Courtney]

You're. That's a good point. That's a good point.

[Mary]

But I guess maybe you couldn't because of the sound, and we don't pick up the sound bites.

[Courtney]

Yeah, that's true.

[Mary]

Maybe just a curling of the hair.

[Courtney]

Right? Right.

[Mary]

I don't know. Actually, I got a haircut, so. And then we got a blowout, so I don't know. We're. We're asking too many. Those are not the questions we need answered. Okay, we need more about the boyfriend or the ex boyfriend. The rich one.

[Courtney]

Yes. I'd love to know more. Let's talk about Kelsey's new apartment. So we meet her mom and her sister, and the mom and the sister are trying to pretend that. Oh, my gosh. Wait, he's paying for this. What job does Kelsey have? She's like, yeah, paying for my car, my health insurance, and this place.

[Mary]

He's literally her papa. Yes, he's her sugar daddy, But I

[Courtney]

also do feel like she was with that man for 10 years. She is entitled to some type of settlement, if you ask me.

[Mary]

What if they broke up two years ago, though? Mary.

[Courtney]

I know. See, this is why it's getting confusing.

[Mary]

And how long has she really been in this apartment?

[Courtney]

I don't know.

[Mary]

And where is this apartment? It's actually. It's very cute.

[Courtney]

It's big.

[Mary]

Yeah. And she's like, but it's not my really big castle. And I'm like, babe, you were. You were going to time out of that castle at some Point.

[Courtney]

Yeah. Yeah. And then her being like, and I could have moved into Bill's house. I'm like, wait, what? We need the real timeline. This is bothering me now.

[Mary]

I agree. Like, it's feeling weird. And, like, Bill seems like such a nice guy. He comes over to build the IKEA furniture. And I do love when they have to build an IKEA furniture because it's like a high low. The high is what the ex pays for. The low is what she can afford.

[Courtney]

Exactly.

[Mary]

As I look at my IKEA Billy bookshelf over here. Oh, it's called Billy.

[Courtney]

It's really called Billy.

[Mary]

You have it too? No. Oh, okay. You're rich. Oh, man. Okay. But then I was, like, laughing too, with, like, the sister and the mom. I'm like, you guys know every detail.

[Courtney]

You know, that's the thing. I feel like Kelsey is playing things up for the camera, and we do not like that. But I want to like Kelsey.

[Mary]

Exactly. It's like, kelsey, I think you are. You're trying to fool us.

[Courtney]

Yeah, like that. We do not. We do not like Ashley. I not trying to fool us. Her doing those brand deals. I actually thought this was very clever. I was shocked they were showing us the process of Ashley I making a deal, because I think that helps her business. What do you think?

[Mary]

I was actually thinking, you know what's so annoying is the fact that the way that she was going to film that deal where she was just showing the box and reading a script and she's gonna get paid five figures for it at least. Actually kind of annoyed and, like, reading off of a paper, that, to me, sometimes feels lazy. And I think the more followers you have and the more posts of engagement that you can show to these brands, the lazier you probably get to be. And so I actually felt like it was lazy. But I will say there was this moment, though, when Dawson had to go to the basement, and she goes, okay, bye, Dawson. Love you. And he stops in his tracks and he goes, where are you going? She goes, I'm not going anywhere. You're going to the basement. He's like, oh, okay.

[Courtney]

Like, so scared Mommy was gonna leave.

[Mary]

He was so cute. I'm like, oh, my God, this kid. And did you know he's named after Jack Dawson from Titanic?

[Courtney]

No. Oh, my God, that kid. She needs to get him into modeling. He is adorable. Adorable.

[Mary]

Yeah. Wait, so what did you think about the brand deal? Maybe I'm just being cynical because I'm, like, a little under the weather today, and so I'm just annoyed I mean,

[Courtney]

I was kind of on her side with Jared. I mean.

[Mary]

Oh, yes.

[Courtney]

I can't imagine having my husband work his freaking ass off. And it's like, not an income that they can live on. And then she's stuck at home with the kids most of the time, plus bringing in all the money, like, and

[Mary]

a nanny for 33 hours a week.

[Courtney]

True. But I. I would be extremely frustrated if I was her, because he can make a lot more money and put a lot more effort into social media and not have to be stuck at Audrey's. He needs someone to manage Audrey's for him.

[Mary]

Yeah. I think that's what it is. It's like, you can have Audrey's and you can still be there and you can still spend time, but you do have to relinquish a little bit of control.

[Courtney]

Yes.

[Mary]

Especially, like, the trade off is do these three brand deals and show off your body, even though I don't necessarily like that. But then go be at Audrey's the other time. You need to balance your work life better completely.

[Courtney]

That would make you so upset.

[Mary]

Yeah.

[Courtney]

Let's talk about Joellen and her mother. So Joellen had said in our interview that her and her mother were not speaking right now. They didn't see each other on Mother's Day. And I'm hoping that this episode will help this situation. So they go over to her grandfather's house, and they start talking and looking at old pictures. Jo Ellen with Bill Clinton, Monica. When her sister asked, did he try anything on you? She's like, no. But then we go a little bit more into her upbringing, and the mom. And the mom really didn't have a defense. So Joellen says she was calling her bipolar. She didn't like that she was into boys. It sounds very, very traumatizing. Do you. Do you feel like the mom took ownership of this?

[Mary]

My least favorite apology is like, sorry if your feelings were hurt, of course. Where you put the onus on somebody else. I don't love that because I think of, like, Kathy Hilton in Paris, and that's just like the think other situation I can think of to compare it to. And it's almost like they don't want to take ownership for the bad situation that they put their children in. All Joellen wants is for her to take accountability. Be like, I'm sorry I did that to you, as opposed to saying, like, I'm sorry, that was a bad experience for you. Just say you're sorry.

[Courtney]

And her mom, like, justifying her behavior. She's like, well, let Me just tell you about my childhood, because when I was little, I was jumping on the bed, I hit the headboard, blood was everywhere. And my mother just said, my floors, my floors, I just had them clean. She's definitely trying to deflect the situation, which is really hard to watch.

[Mary]

But I think in her mind, it was kind of like, okay, I'm not gonna let it get to that point of where my mom just didn't like me, and I'm gonna make sure that she's okay. I'll put her in these behavioral things. And then it was like, actually, you just, like, never needed to do that.

[Courtney]

Yeah. This is just, like, very complicated. Tough to watch. And then I'm wondering if Joellen will ever actually be able to forgive her and, like, move forward. I don't know if she will be able to. And you can even tell she keeps talking about her relationship with the grandkids. You know, she's like, you shouldn't be babysitting my kids. You should want to hang out with them and be with them.

[Mary]

It really has a chip on her shoulder from, like, her relationship with her mother. And I think she also thinks that her mom loves Jen more, and Jen is, like, the prized child, and. And I think it's really hard. And I mean, she says, like, you're the parent. Like, you should be making amends with me. You should be wanting this relationship with me. I have these grandkids. These are, like, your legacy. Like, you should be wanting to be in my life. And it's almost like you don't want to take accountability for what I'm upset about. And so you put this wall up, and I can only bang on that wall so many times.

[Courtney]

And I also think it hits Joellen harder being a mom herself. Now. She's like, how could you ever do this? Like, I can't imagine sending my children away. Like, her oldest son is 11. So getting to that point where she was first sent away in seventh grade. And great point, Jen. Jen was like, you made us strong. And Joanne's like, you made me a.

[Mary]

Well, I was thinking, too, is like, this also, though, has to be a hard conversation to be doing. Like, Joellen is being so authentically herself. And then, like, the cameras are there, and they're having this. But it is hard. Like, I think about when we think about, like, Bronwyn's muzzy or, like, Candy's mom, like, these, like, you know, I'm putting quotes around it. Terrible mothers come onto our screen, and now there's going to be this Opinion formed from the public. And you have this as the child and it's still your mom. And so you have. It's just, it's a lot. Do you know what I mean though? Of like now you have this public who's going to not feel great things about you because we're seeing what's happened and we're getting it from Jo Ellen's perspective too. And it's like that is tough.

[Courtney]

It's so tough. Yeah. I mean, I hope that maybe they can go to therapy together.

[Mary]

I agree. I hope that there is a path forward for them. And I also hope too, maybe Joellen's mom can watch this and really see the hurt and pain that Joellen has suffered and just say, I, I didn't know it was that bad. I know you've said it, but I didn't know. And now that I'm actually like seeing it, not from even her telling her mom, but like seeing her just give her account that maybe that'll make progress. Hopefully.

[Courtney]

Totally. Totally.

[Mary]

I hope so for them. I hope so because you don't want to miss out on your grandkids lives. No, I mean your daughter too, but like, you know. Yeah.

[Courtney]

Yeah. Okay, let's take a break and talk about Rula and Brian. We're lost.

[Mary]

It feels like we're going round in circles.

[Courtney]

I'm gonna ask that man for directions.

[Mary]

[Courtney]

Okay, you guys, I took a screenshot of Rula and that hospital photo because I have convinced myself she went to the hospital, found a bed in the HAL hallway. This picture is from the hallway. And she jumped in the bed. She's wearing her own pajamas, and she threw like all these towels over her. And then I was like, is this even Rula? There's something so suspicious about this.

[Mary]

Can you send me this screenshot?

[Courtney]

Of course. Of course.

[Mary]

Courtney, do you think it was maybe just like, it could have been like, a busy er?

[Courtney]

No.

[Mary]

No. Okay.

[Courtney]

Or is this Brian's office? Is this Brian's office? Actually, like, I just don't believe this situation at all.

[Mary]

Look at her wrist. She does have the wristband. You think she went to a water park that day or something? And they gave her, like, that's her ticket to make for the. For them to know she was at Baja. Mar. I will say the seat pillow. Like she just got straight off of a plane. Like she brought a sleep pillow for her neck. I mean, it could be in Brian's office.

[Courtney]

It just makes me giggle. It definitely looks like it's in the hallway. There's like a chair in a picture. Yeah, it's just sus.

[Mary]

Okay, we do have to just question everything with that family now completely.

[Courtney]

We definitely.

[Mary]

Without the two shots of tequila, we are left to our own devices of trying to solve the puzzle here from

[Courtney]

that genetically modified organism. Brian, he called himself. Like I was dying. I sell this. I. I might as well do it.

[Mary]

Alicia. Be like, this is incredible. I'm learning so much.

[Courtney]

This is like science class. Billy's like, alicia, you are not going on a zembic.

[Mary]

Stop it, baby. She's already on it. And you know what, Billy, you might be on it too, because again, you're all pushing those salads around and nobody's really taking a bite. I also was laughing because she had for the place settings, she had gone and made, like, professional name placards. Like, it was like a coaster with the names on it. And I thought, wow, I think they are rich. Rich.

[Courtney]

I do, too. I mean, I think doctors can do really well. I think Rula does very well.

[Mary]

I think they're both really rich and their money is Together now. And so. And then I think maybe they're just in throuples. Maybe they're both. Maybe, like, Rula gets off on the fact that Brian sneaks around, but she's in on it.

[Courtney]

There's something there.

[Mary]

Something's going on in that household. Get him the tequila. We need answers.

[Courtney]

Andy's like, okay, so Brian, come on out. Brian just took three tequila shots. Because we really want the truth now, Brian, let's talk about the timeline with the girlfriend. When did you meet? Was that also at Jackie's? Did you give her doubles? And you were just having singles? That was crazy.

[Mary]

Is Jackie la professor de espanol? Is that his former wife, the Spanish teacher?

[Courtney]

It's so crazy.

[Mary]

He's like, so basically when I met Rula, I got her so wasted, consent was out the door. I kept giving her doubles while I was drinking. Singles. I'm like, not helping the case, creepo.

[Courtney]

No, it was very disturbing to hear that. And then when he started talking about the filet mignon and how it reminds him of an Achilles and that's why he likes it medium now, I was like, that's disgusting.

[Mary]

Hey, Dexter, chill out, okay? Brian is Dexter. Maybe he's priming her for his next meal.

[Courtney]

Oh, my.

[Mary]

What happened in that doctor's office?

[Courtney]

This scene I just loved so much. And it's something about being in their own home that made it better. It really made me appreciate them with the staff.

[Mary]

The placards for the names. I want to come to this dinner.

[Courtney]

Yes, Agreed.

[Mary]

Like, I would like more dinners at Rula's house.

[Courtney]

There's something about, like, inviting someone into your home as well and controlling this situation and sitting at your dining room table and it feels more friendly.

[Mary]

Yeah, yeah. Like, you could have a few tequila shots because he's not driving anywhere.

[Courtney]

Exactly.

[Mary]

And either is Alicia, so she needs to get on that too.

[Courtney]

Yeah. She brought two bottles of Champs. Very generous. She did vuv. She did the one and the regular. I love the.

[Mary]

I love it. I love it. Okay, let's go into Kelsey and Rosie, because, honestly, this escalated very fast, and

[Courtney]

I'm totally team Rosie on this one. Kelsey wasn't very good at defending herself either.

[Mary]

Well, she drives up with an intercom from her car. She's driving a Range Rover. Kelsey. Also, she has to get a new car because this car is, quote, unquote, giving out on her. I'm like, babe, the lease is up. We know.

[Courtney]

You're so right.

[Mary]

We know. The lease is up. Okay. Like, you had a three year lease. You Broke up in year one. He said, fine, I'll pay the rest until it's out. And now you're going to be driving a Honda Civic.

[Courtney]

Yep, that sounds about right.

[Mary]

And that's okay. There's nothing wrong with a Honda Civic.

[Courtney]

I've had many Hondas. I love a Honda. I had an.

[Mary]

Are you a Honda?

[Courtney]

I had two Accords. I had a white Honda Accord 1996 in high school. The person before me smoked in it, and I continued to smoke in it. Told my parents that it was the person before me because I thought smoking was cool.

[Mary]

Oh, my God. Being a 17 year old, smoking in your car with that window down with not a care in the world, thinking you were the coolest person.

[Courtney]

Yes. I yearn for that moment. I would go in the back roads, blast my music, have my cigs, Listen to Blink182. I was living Courtney. And then I got a Honda Accord 1999 V6. Courtney. That power that it was, I could whip around anywhere. It was like a forest green, leather seats.

[Mary]

It was good. But I've only known you with. What was the car after that that you had?

[Courtney]

A Nissan Altima. Like a boat?

[Mary]

Yes.

[Courtney]

Oh, man. 2004 Nissan Altima. Huge freaking boat. And I add that up till 2020.

[Mary]

So you, like, Kelsey, you're gonna run it to the ground?

[Courtney]

Of course you have to run those cars to the ground.

[Mary]

I had my Jeep. My first car was a. That blue one. Yeah. Indiana Jones. And I drove that for, like 15 years. Yeah. A lot of problems with it, though, at the end.

[Courtney]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mary]

It's like once. Once it starts to break, it's like, it's over. But I'm like, no, it ain't over, baby.

[Courtney]

Totally. Michael still has a 1996, like, clueless Jeep.

[Mary]

God, I love a Wrangler. My sister got a Wrangler. Like, drive me around.

[Courtney]

I know there was nothing cooler. That would be fun to have a sig in that car.

[Mary]

Oh, God.

[Courtney]

Okay, so she pulls up.

[Mary]

House police. House police. Oh. Suspect says it's 8, 000 square feet, but more like 8, 000 inches. But that's not even a good read. Kelsey. You literally could have planned these reads so much better. It's not that funny.

[Courtney]

It was not funny at all. And this really threw Rosie. I think she was like, one embarrassed for, like, the whole, like, neighborhood thing. And then she's like, you're literally gonna come to my home and make this giant scene where I'm actually helping your business when you don't have A man. You don't have a house and you don't have a career. Like, fuck no, not on my property. She got activated. But Courtney, all I could look at was this ugly fucking outfit. This was horrible. Rosie, what is she wearing? She might be one of the worst dressers on Bravo.

[Mary]

Well, I think collectively the entire Valley cast is the worst dressed of a show on Bravo. But Rosie is just like, she's like a Lisa Frank. Yes.

[Courtney]

Like bright.

[Mary]

She's just these like bright colors, wild pattern, just like loud. I don't know where she's buying it from. It's just like she's almost like taking Polly Pockets clothes and then making them into human clothes.

[Courtney]

Toddler and tiaras.

[Mary]

Yeah. And but to be honest, Kelsey's outfit was terrible too. I liked her sweater, but then she had like a tennis skirt on and these like slide shoes. It's not good. It's not good over there.

[Courtney]

So they make it up the stairs and Rosie has strategically left out the house plans and was like, you know, you keep on talking about this square footage. Do you want to go outside? You can measure it. You. You keep saying I'm a liar and exaggerator. And Kelsey's like, oh, okay, like it was a joke. Calm down a bit. I was trying to be light hearted. I thought we're on the same page now. We're going to be friends and make fun of each other. And Rosie's like, no, you've attacked my house, my character. All you do is talk about me behind my back. Look at the plans. And where the fuck is your house? At least I'm on the deed of this house. Where are you? What have you done? What have I done to you? Get the out of the. It just starts going haywire.

[Mary]

Thing is like, Kelsey played her hand wrong. She should have made a better joke not insulting Rosie. In the beginning. She thought that they were at the point where they could banter with each other and they weren't. She should have made a joke like, the friendship police is here. Can they get along? Something silly like don't come in, don't go on those sirens. I know. Rosie probably also feels feel slightly insecure because she's like, this is a really nice neighborhood and we're trying to like, catch up to be with everybody in this neighborhood. We are building this. You want to see the plans? It is happening. We've been detracted by boulders. Okay. But don't worry, we're breaking through and we're gonna get it done. So she is like so nervous to have to try to impress Kelsey. And Kelsey came in trying to have the upper hand in a joking way. But there's no joking with Rosie right now.

[Courtney]

No, she, like, lost it. And she's like, so you're basically mad at me for saying you are a polygamist at a picnic, even though you're the definition of a polygamist. You know, you have a boyfriend yet you have other boyfriends. They have other girlfriends.

[Mary]

You're a bitch. Get out. You are no one. No one. Get the fuck out of my house. Here's where I thought that it was, like, kind of annoying me, though, because, like, hair supplies are expensive. Okay. And when she had that bag and she was grabbing that bag to basically toss it out the front door as she did, like, that would piss me off. Don't touch my shit to throw me out. I don't like that.

[Courtney]

That. Okay, I'll give you that one. All I could hear was Rosie, because Kelsey really wasn't saying much.

[Mary]

Sucking dick is not a career. And I was like. And the rumor is you might have gotten fired for doing that.

[Courtney]

I. Yeah, I. We need to know more about that as well. We.

[Mary]

We do, we do. But she's like, oh, and the whole thing that you won a pageant. Yeah, Right. Your sugar daddy paid for. Shut the up and get out of my house. Okay, you guys, there is this clip going around of Kelsey from the beauty pageant. Have you seen it? No. Okay, I'm probably going to quote this so wrong because I saw it a couple weeks ago. Forgot about it until we were talking about the pageant. She was showing her awards. Okay, this is unclear, and I'm probably making this part up. Was she hit by a car maybe? I think she was hit by a car. She went into the hospital, they found this tumor, and they removed a tumor from her. And then. But in the pageant, they say it's not a rumor. They got rid of the tumor.

[Courtney]

Oh, my God.

[Mary]

As she's walking down the stage in her bathing suit.

[Courtney]

So she basically had this, like, miracle happen because. Because she got hit by a car. They did, like, a full scan, find this tumor, and it saved her life.

[Mary]

It's not a rumor. They got rid of that tumor.

[Courtney]

Wow.

[Mary]

Kelsey, Miss Rhode Island.

[Courtney]

Do you think she won this contest fair and square?

[Mary]

No.

[Courtney]

Okay. Okay. So what happens is upstairs, she starts grabbing the luggage. Take your out. Get out of my house. You're not welcome here. And then Rosie pushes Kelsey out of the house. Production does jump in. And then Rosie, like, runs up the stairs, and then Kelsey walks back in and is like, Rosie, by the way, I won that pageant, Baron Square. I just thought that was, like, really funny as, like, the last line. I really couldn't hear Kelsey in the fight. Rosie was bulldozing her. You are no one. Shut the up. Get out of my house. I would love to see this on Peacock without it bleeped because I really. It was just so bleeped. I really couldn't hear what was going on.

[Mary]

You need the captions for it. And then. But the thing is, too, is like, Rosie was so in Kelsey's face that at one point, Kelsey pushes Rosie back just to be like, give me space. It wasn't like a shove. That's what really, like, got Rosie to grab the and throw her out. Don't touch me. It's like you were in her space. I don't. She just was like, whoa. Like, back off. And so then when she, like, pushes her out to him, like, this is so crazy. She's like, everyone knows you sleep with married men. You're a slam pig. Get in my house.

[Courtney]

House.

[Mary]

You're such a loser. I won't call the police. Get out. You are such a loser. And I'm thinking, so if the sirens got the neighbors going and they were like, what is this? I do think they might be able to hear this as well.

[Courtney]

This was a wild, wild scene. And then Kelsey just drives off and it's like, bye, Rosie. With her fingers up. I just feel like Rosie dominated this situation and really just got out everything that was on her chest and put it all out there.

[Mary]

Okay, now I will say for next week when Kelsey shows up with the sash that says Miss Slam Pig. That is funny.

[Courtney]

Hilarious.

[Mary]

I. I understand where Rosie was coming from. I think she took it too far. Once you say something, you can never take it back. You know, it's. It's out of the tube. But I just feel like she was, like, so on the back. I would love to figure. Find a way for them to find a way to be friends.

[Courtney]

I think Rosie will have a lot to say about Kelsey at the reunion in terms of her timeline with that man.

[Mary]

We do need a timeline, and we do need Kelsey to come clean.

[Courtney]

Yes, Agreed.

[Mary]

You do need to let us know and maybe it'll be, we broke up, we got back together, we broke up, he let me be here. You know, whatever it was, there was a lot of back and forth. It wasn't clear. By the time the show came, I was ready. Truthfully, Kelsey now has a paycheck from the show. She's Building her business. I'd love to know too. Is she just a house call only or does she have a studio space somewhere? Because she doesn't have that house space anymore.

[Courtney]

Yeah. Unsure. Unless he meet. Maybe he lets her use it to make money so he wouldn't even hear.

[Mary]

It's. The house is so big, she could enter, have clients and he would never even know. Plus, he's in Miami most of the time.

[Courtney]

Right. I just am obsessed with Rhode Island. They have casted it literally perfectly. Every single person needs to come back. I don't want one new person.

[Mary]

What if it was the mistress? Girlfriend.

[Courtney]

Okay. But it's just. It's just perfection. I love it so much.

[Mary]

I think I do want Rosie to have another ally.

[Courtney]

I mean, Ashley is a good ally.

[Mary]

No, I know, but I think Ashley can be within the group now. And I think Ashley, she's so busy. I don't. I just feel like she's not as integrated into the group as much as the other women are who have all these pasts that it would be nice for Rosie to have someone that maybe had. She has more history with too. Yeah. So that's. Yeah. And just also like, more rich. You know this. We had Jersey with the house husbands. And I'm like, I'm here for the house husbands of Rhode Island.

[Courtney]

Yeah. It's like Salt Lake.

[Mary]

Yeah. But like, I want more of these guys. Like rich. I love Rich. Sorry.

[Courtney]

Yeah, that's okay.

[Mary]

I mean, we love Brian.

[Courtney]

I love Brian. Watching him is actually insane. Give me more.

[Mary]

He's a terrible person, but I love him. I love Brian. And somebody get him the tequila sponsorship. The official Tequila for cheaters. There could be a cheater brand. Sonia Morgan. Cheater brand.

[Courtney]

I know. I was thinking. Yeah, yeah. Okay.

[Mary]

Tipsy girl. Tequila. And Brian is the face. It's perfect because that's also how he got rule up. By getting her tipsy.

[Courtney]

Oh, my God.

[Mary]

Layers. Oh, God, I love it.

[Courtney]

All right, have a great day, everybody.

[Mary]

Bye. Bye.
