Two teas in a Pod with Teddi.

[Podcast Host (Dirty Rush)]

Mellencamp and Tama Foreign.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Hi guys. Welcome to another episode of Two Teas in a Pod with myself, Teddy Mellencamp and Tampa judge.

[Podcast Host (Dirty Rush)]

Morning.

[Commercial Announcer]

Morning.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Just worked out.

[Tamra Judge]

I'm all sweaty and gross and you look smelly. I do. This is hair from yesterday. I did my confessional. I had a new look yesterday.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, you did? I had.

[Tamra Judge]

I had an updo and then when I took it down, I'm like, oh, last night my hair was so full. And yeah, normally it just sticks to.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

The 20 minute takedown.

[Tamra Judge]

It made me think maybe I need hot rollers.

[Podcast Host (Dirty Rush)]

You know what?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I've tried that before and I love them.

[Tamra Judge]

Really? I think I'm going to buy some. They got to be new and improved since the 1980s, right?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. I mean, or you could just pull some out from under your cupboard, which I'm sure you still have some. I don't know.

[Tamra Judge]

I don't. I really don't. I did for years, though.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

That is too good. Some hot rollers.

[Tamra Judge]

What you up to?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Nothing. Just, you know, watch some shows. What do you think of the season six trailer of Salt Lake City?

[Tamra Judge]

Very costumey.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Very costume.

[Tamra Judge]

Lots of costumes, lots of, like, performances that kind of look like. I mean, it looked good.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

It's the same cast. Britney comes back again as a. It starts out with the season six trailer. It's a Greek tragedy themed. Britney returns as a friend of Mary updates us on Robert Jr. He's doing well as he can be. Like some days are good and some days he's not in a confessional. She tearfully adds, it's his journey and I know God will work it out. So I feel like it's gonna be a hard year for Mary and her family. And then Mary and Andrew's friendship seems to be fractured as well. Angie finds Mary says to her, you're no longer A sister to me.

[Tamra Judge]

Uh oh, trouble in paradise.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Mary replies, no, you're not. Find another one. Okay. Like, you can just pick sisters up. Let me grab a sister real quick.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Then Lisa's relationship with John seems a little rocky with her saying, I feel like we're on different pages. Later, she got a tarot card reader, and he references. And they reference rebuilding trust. And Bronwyn and Whitney discuss a mystery man in the marriage.

[Tamra Judge]

Who do you think they're talking about?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

They're leading us to believe they're talking about Lisa, but I don't know. It could also be about Bronwyn.

[Tamra Judge]

Does it look like Lisa is going to have a bad season?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

It looks like all of them are going to have a bit of a bad season. Except I didn't see anything bad for Heather. Did you?

[Tamra Judge]

I didn't really even notice Heather that much in the trailer. She wasn't really in the mix of things. Or maybe I just watched it too quickly.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Maybe you blinked and you missed them.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, maybe. Did you count how many costumes they had on?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

15. No, I didn't actually count, but it was a lot. Then Bronwyn and Todd also seem rocky, with Bronwyn wondering, what if I'm wrong and I'm gonna look like a fool? And he humiliates me? We also see Bronwyn, her mother, discussing their issues.

[Tamra Judge]

That was rough.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

The mom.

[Tamra Judge]

At first I thought it was her daughter's grandmother on the father's side. No, that's who I thought it was because, you know, there's so much tension between the two families. And then when I saw that was her actual mother, I'm like, oh, yeah, oopsheesh.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And then guess what? There's a crossover with Jason from below deck. Captain Jason. And I've had flashbacks of when he didn't get my reference, and it turned into all kinds of things.

[Tamra Judge]

I had flashbacks of New Orleans when you were DMing him.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my God. Don't act like I was DMing flirting with him.

[Tamra Judge]

No, you're DMing.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I made a. I said. What was it that I even said that he didn't understand that it was.

[Tamra Judge]

Like you, like, sent him, like, a death. A death emoji or something.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I did. Like, I'm, like, dead. Like, that's funny. Like, to. And he thought that you were telling him to die?

[Tamra Judge]

Yes.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh. Because I didn't send the skull emoji. That's what it was.

[Tamra Judge]

Yes.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh. I can't. This is just the story of my life. So how did you feel about season seven, episode 11 of Miami?

[Tamra Judge]

I thought it was okay. I mean, I thought last week's was a lot better, but, you know, ups and downs.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And last week's was really good. It starts off with Marisol asked Alexia how she feels about the fight with Stephanie at dinner the night before. Stephanie is offended that Alexia said she has a big head.

[Tamra Judge]

No, I have a question about that. I don't remember this. Does it mean, like, she's got, like, a big head? Like she thinks highly of herself or her head is actually big?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think Stephanie's trying to make a joke and pretend that she's saying her head circumference is big, but I think it means her ego. Okay.

[Tamra Judge]

But she says something in the previews or something about for next week. I think it was about how big her actual head was. Like, I don't know.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah, because she's trying to make a joke of it. Everything's. She's trying to always be. Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

Me and Dolores were talking about that. We were on different sides. Like I said. I know you're like, teddy, I think she's getting on your nerves.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And she. This episode, she was okay for me.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, she was good this episode. What about the other episode?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

The other episode is just a lot.

[Tamra Judge]

It's a lot.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And I know that people love. And you need housewives that are a lot. I get it.

[Tamra Judge]

She's great for a newbie. She's great.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And guys. But I think it makes sense when she says she doesn't have a lot of girlfriends because maybe they have. She has no one to check her and kind of put her in her place and be like, listen, we don't need to hear this. Yeah. Or like, we got it.

[Tamra Judge]

I get that. And guys, for those of you who don't are just now realizing Miami is now going to be after Orange County. So Orange County's on at 8 o' clock instead of 9 o'.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Clock.

[Tamra Judge]

And then Miami's gonna. So we're on the same day now.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I love that.

[Tamra Judge]

What makes it hard. Hard for us.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. Did you. Did you hear my deep breath of.

[Tamra Judge]

Two in one day?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Two in one day. But then they're still all wrapped up about the fact that Lisa is unbothered that everyone thinks her arriving late is disrespectful. It's disrespectful to.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay, wait, I'm confused.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Because that she got herself screwed.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, I know.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I know.

[Tamra Judge]

But I'm confused. So she was in St. Barts, but weren't they waiting for her at the airport in Miami?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yes, but I don't know if she got stuck in St. Bart. We don't know. I'm sure there's more to this that we're not getting, but she says she was dealing with divorce matters with her lawyers in St. Barts.

[Tamra Judge]

What do you think? What kind of legal stuff's going on in Saint Barts?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I don't. I think she was just on vacation, probably.

[Tamra Judge]

Do you think that's what it was? Is that why she's, like, laughing and joking and like, oh, we don't need to talk about that. Oh, please, it's no big deal. And then Lars. Larsa.

[Commercial Announcer]

Larsa.

[Tamra Judge]

Does she get her taxes done in Bali? Oh, God.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Then Marisol, Larsa, Lisa and Stephanie and Adriana head flamenco dress shopping. Marisol is planning.

[Tamra Judge]

I thought it was Flamingo. What I did all these years. I thought it was Flamingo. It's Flamingo with a CEO, not a G. O.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yes.

[Tamra Judge]

Things you learn when you read. It's crazy.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Learn when you read and you see a different letter and you're like, about Flamingo.

[Tamra Judge]

Really? I thought it was Flamingo.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Then Marisol says she's planning a birthday surprise for Stephanie. Stephanie thinks that Marisol is different when Alexia is around and changes her personality to mimic Alexia. I don't know that I fully agree with this.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, I don't fully agree with. I don't agree with it at all.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I don't think Marisol is always the same.

[Tamra Judge]

I think what they're seeing is when Marisol is not around her, like, they're. They're such a team. You know what I mean? They're always together. So I think when she's not around her, she gives, you know, she's more talking, more attention. More attention. One on one tension. I think the girls are working overtime to try break up Alexia and Marisol's.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Friendship, which I'm like, guys, it's probably not gonna happen. Well, are we seeing it happen later this season? I feel like maybe we hear that they have a little drama later in the season.

[Tamra Judge]

I think so.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think so. Then they go to go get ice cream, and Larsa licks hers very suggestively in the confessional. Marisol says that's why she makes big bucks on Onlyfans.

[Tamra Judge]

She's deep throating a Tito's bottle. I'm like, oh, Marisol is pure comedy to me. She's so funny. Does Larsa still have only fans? She doesn't talk about it anymore.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think we all don't talk about it. Anymore. We got over it.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, I think she probably is like, it's probably not great to talk about because then people just give a she.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Gets enough already, you know, Everybody does. So she's probably just like, you know what? I'm gonna go about my business, make some money, and do what I got to do. Foreign.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay, I have to put you on to these leggings I've been obsessed with lately. They're from this brand called Tona. And get this, the designer behind them also created Lululemon so they know what they're doing. These leggings are next level. Think buttery, soft, super flattering and very comfortable. Also, they're supportive in all the right places. I started wearing them for my morning workouts and but now I'm basically living in them. And here's what makes them even better. Every pair you buy helps fund a.

[Commercial Announcer]

Mental health counseling session for a teen in need.

[Tamra Judge]

Tona's on a mission to end teen suicide and self harm, which we think is so important and incredible. And we've partnered with Tona to give.

Here's the thing about being a great gift giver. When you find something truly perfect for everyone on your list, you almost don't want to give it away.

[Tamra Judge]

That's what happened with my Quint's order. Everything's so soft and well made. I'm seriously tempted to keep all of it for myself.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Quince pretty much has your whole list covered. Mongolian cashmere sweaters for $50 when you'd normally pay $200 or more. The kind you'll wear on repeat.

[Tamra Judge]

Then there's the denim that goes with everything.

[Commercial Announcer]

Silk tops and skirts for when you.

[Tamra Judge]

Need to look put together. Cashmere beanies and scarves and down jackets that actually keep you warm.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

The Italian wool coats absolute top of my list. They look designer and are made with premium materials. But like everything at Quint's, the price won't make you panic. We're talking way less than other brands charge.

[Tamra Judge]

By working directly with trusted factories that maintain high standards for both craftsmanship and ethical practices, and by cutting out the middle man and markups, Quince is able.

[Commercial Announcer]

To pass those savings straight to you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I can't tell you how much I'm loving my new cashmere sweater. I will be wearing it a lot this holiday season and getting one for my daughter. Slate Find gifts so good you'll want to keep them with Quint Go to.

[Tamra Judge]

Before all the algorithm fed blah and the endless sea of dupes, shopping used to feel more fun. But here's a confession. Twat Stirrers. You can find that fun feeling again on ebay. Because on ebay it's not just shopping, it's a full on fashion pursuit. And when you find the thing, that adrenaline hit is real. I have sold clothes on ebay and know the feeling of finding the perfect item on ebay. My daughter Sophia is the one who inspired me to use ebay.

[Commercial Announcer]

She loves it as well.

[Tamra Judge]

We are big fans. It's about the thrill of finding pieces that feel like me. And I want you to find the pieces that feel like you.

[Commercial Announcer]

There's always more to discover.

[Tamra Judge]

Ebay has millions of pre loved finds from hundreds of brands backed by ebay. Authenticity guarantee eBay things people love did you know?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Then Julie, Julia, Gertie, Kiki and Alexia go to a food market. Alexia thinks Kiki hasn't been herself on this trip. She's been a bit distant.

[Tamra Judge]

She's been pretty quiet, that's for sure.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Kiki shares that she helped several of her Haitian cousins immigrate, but can't support her entire family. She has received death threats from set family members and has had to move.

[Tamra Judge]

That's crazy.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. Then at dress shopping, Alexi tells Julia that Todd has been texting her good morning. And then you see that Alexia's still wearing her wedding ring.

[Tamra Judge]

I think she put it back on. But, you know, Alexia noticing that something was off about Kiki just goes to show that she is a girl's girl. She is a good friend.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She is.

[Tamra Judge]

Nobody else is asking. Hey, Kiki, why are you not talking?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah, Kiki, what's up? Are you doing all right? Kiki, Always.

[Tamra Judge]

Always death threats, which I don't mind. From family members.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I know.

[Tamra Judge]

That's just. That's dark.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah, it's.

[Tamra Judge]

I mean, my heart is breaking for Kiki. I know she wants to help her family, but she can't.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Only one.

[Tamra Judge]

One person can only do so much.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

And why do you want to help somebody that's sending you death threats?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I know, right? It's. And I love Kiki.

[Tamra Judge]

I do, too.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

But I do kind of wish that the women had the same energy with Alexia about bringing up Todd like they did with Lisa with Lenny. Because I. To be honest, I don't really want to hear his name anymore.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, it makes me sad seeing Alexia trying so hard to make things work with Todd, because, I mean, we know where she's at now, and we're happy. And I know she had to go through the process because, you know what? She deserves better in my. My Mind.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I know. I wonder and I wonder on his end how he's going to respond as he's watching these episodes.

[Tamra Judge]

Has he been vocal? I haven't seen anything. I don't follow him.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

So while speaking of following Larsa, Ashley so why she can't.

[Tamra Judge]

A great lead in.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Thank you so much. Larsa asked Lisa why she can't unfollow Marcus on Instagram, and Lisa said she was going to until Alarsa was not so great to her. Larsa tells her to name one time she's been a bad friend. Larsa says she doesn't want to be friends with Lisa if she won't unfollow him. Calls Lisa a groupie.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay, but. But Lisa said, I need to collect my thoughts. I need a moment. Also known as I need to find a reason why I haven't unfollowed him. I don't quite know what to say right now.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I don't have time to text people back to let them know I've missed flights, let alone remember who I'm following and who.

[Tamra Judge]

Right, right. Lisa's like, I'm very, very busy.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think she's just flighty. Like, I don't.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, she is. I think so too.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She was probably like, oh, I did forget. But instead just decided, well, I'll just go for it with life. Okay.

[Tamra Judge]

So Lisa's saying there's no bigger groupie than Larsa.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

What?

[Tamra Judge]

What do you think about that? Because she dates athletes, that makes her a groupie. What do they call people that? Like, what did your dad call people? Like, they would hang out at his concerts. Are those called groupies too?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

No, Back in the day, it was like they were like band Aids or whatever.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, really?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. Remember, like with Kate Hudson? The movie with Kate Hudson?

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, yes, yes. Yeah. I just don't see Larsa almost famous. That's what it was. I don't see Larsa hanging out at ball games, waiting amongst all the other girls, like, hey, hi, it's me. You want to go?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think they just want to go out with Larsa.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. And she's Larsa Pippin.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She's Larsa Pippin. And then the other women recognize that the unfollowing issue is actually a power struggle between the two of them. Well, that might be right.

[Tamra Judge]

It is. I think at this point Lisa's like, I ain't unfollowing. I'm not gonna follow.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

You're not the boss of me.

[Commercial Announcer]

Yeah.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Like, I think that's what she's saying. And it sounded like I.

[Tamra Judge]

And Then Lars is like. And then they were started sounding like children. Lars is like, you weren't missed yesterday. Nobody missed you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Nobody.

[Tamra Judge]

Nobody cares.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Lisa always looks like a deer in the headlights. Like, she's like, I know.

[Tamra Judge]

Then. Then Lisa says, marcus is a better friend than you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my God.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, my God.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

So funny. Things are rough when that.

[Tamra Judge]

I love those kind of, like, petty arguments on him.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

As if Marcus has really been reaching out to Lisa at this point, the way that Lisa's boyfriend's been reaching out to Larsa.

[Tamra Judge]

We need to talk about that when we get there.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh.

[Tamra Judge]

I. I'm not thrilled about that.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, first they do the. They do some dancing.

[Tamra Judge]

Wait, wait, I forgot. I forgot to bring this up. What about Lisa taking notes as Larson, throwing insults at her? She's like.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She's like, I can't be bothered with caring what you have to say about me.

[Tamra Judge]

But that's like me after every scene of Housewives because I can't remember. She. I go home and I'm like, so and so said this and so and so said that just so I can remember. Because it's like such foolish nonsense that your brain doesn't even want to process it just throws it away.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

It's like, I'm done. I don't care. I. I've already. I've already heard this 84 times. I'm fine. Then they go to the flamenco dance and singing class and Julia says she is sick of the fighting between Lisa and Larsa. Julia, you have set so many fights this entire season.

[Tamra Judge]

Like, but the thing is, like, me and Dolores were talking about this yesterday. She is not good at stirring the pot. She's not good at it.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She gives thirsty like she gets wet noodle.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, like, you can't do it. It's not your personality. So stop trying to do it. Just be yourself. Because she's. She's looking dumb. I'm sorry I said it. Well, I got the flashback of Marcus saying the women should. Should. Wouldn't even be able to wash the dishes or something like that. It was with Andy.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, God.

[Tamra Judge]

I think it was at the reunion. I'm like, I forgot about that one.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I forgot about that little part that Marcus slipped in.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, yeah. And then Julia keeps saying, I organized this trip. And everybody's yelling. Oh, coming from the lady who. You caused the yelling. You caused the drama.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm sick of her starting shit and then pretending like she doesn't want to be in the shit.

[Tamra Judge]

It's just, she's not a good shit. Star.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

No, not her thing.

[Tamra Judge]

Needs to find another role on this show.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

No.

[Tamra Judge]

Go milk goats.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Go back to the goat life.

[Tamra Judge]

I'd rather see your cute little sons just stop stirring the shit. Yeah.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

It's not. Because then you get. She gets, like, lost in the conversation, and then, like, can't keep up. I'm like. And then creates new drama. But then at dinner, Larsa says Jody has been texting her, which we were talking about. And then after the flamenco class, Lisa and Larsa got into an argument in the elevator about Milan.

[Tamra Judge]

What did you think about Jody calling Larsa a predator?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think the fact that Jody is getting involved in this at all at this point needs to stop.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. I like you, Jody. I just think you're giving off, like, I don't want to name some guys on our show, but you know what I'm talking about. Just don't get. It's just best that you don't get involved. Let the girls be. Do the girl stuff. You just support your girlfriend.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, I also think, like, he's writing, like, novels.

[Commercial Announcer]

20.

[Tamra Judge]

Would they say something like 20 minutes? Oh, like big old long text messages. Like, 20 minutes later, after, you know, Lisa gets off the phone, he's like, texting all this stuff. I'm like, why? Why are you doing that? And then we have. Obviously, we're probably gonna see it next week's episode. But the girl's like, oh, my God, he didn't do that.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

He was probably on a roll. And like, then. Then Larson said she had to block. Actually block him from texting her.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, it was probably getting annoying if he kept texting and texting, and it just.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And it was.

[Tamra Judge]

I want to know what he's. I want to know what he's saying. And I'm sure we're going to hear it, but just don't get involved.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm sure we're gonna see the screenshots I can't imagine of Real Housewives of Miami. Might as well be called screenshots.

[Commercial Announcer]

Screenshots.

[Tamra Judge]

I just couldn't imagine Eddie ever doing something like that ever, ever, ever.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, and then when they're all sitting around the dinner table and they're, you know, this is all coming to light, and Lisa starts to say that she has to, like, get something done for court within the next hour. She needs somebody to sign off. Not one of the girls asks her one question about it.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, I mean, if they did, they didn't show it. But I find it hard to believe that she just found this out. Like, your attorney's not attorney gives you a heads up. They're not like, you have one hour, you're in Spain. Get this notarized.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, I have a feeling she put it off. Guess she's not one of those that, like, has her calendar and she checks it off the list as she gets things done. I think she's more just like, fly by the seat of your pants. And I bet she probably got a message that said you didn't get this lawyer thing turned in while you were in business. On, yeah, in St. Bart's I mean.

[Tamra Judge]

I think Lisa should get a sponsor with some kind of calendar company.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Just little reminder, send an automatic text message. Ding, ding, ding.

[Tamra Judge]

It's time to take your trash out.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

But then the. The fight starts to escalate and Larsa. Psych. Pretty much she's saying she's done. She's. She's like, I'm out.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And I was like, okay. She meaning I'm out from this night. Is she meaning I'm out from this trip?

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. She wasn't quite clear. She kept saying, I want to go home. So it's like, okay, you want to go home to home or you want to go home back to your hotel room? Like, it didn't. So I think she was saying hotel room, but so who she was pulling. She was pulling a Tamra. I'm going home.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm going home. I can't take this. Who would you say would be your bestie? You can't say Marisol or Alexia. Alexia. Because we're already close with them.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Who would you say you'd be besties.

[Tamra Judge]

With on the show? Stephanie.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Stephanie. Yes. Why? Because you want private jet?

[Tamra Judge]

No, I mean, that's nice. That's a plus. But I just. I like her sense of humor. I like her. No nonsense. She doesn't butter things up. You know where you stand with her. She doesn't hold back. She's not sneaky. She's not a liar. You know all those things. I'm not saying that any of the other girls are. I just connect with that type of person. Just tell me like it is.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I can't believe you didn't say Larsa.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, I like. I love Larsa too. Oh, God, Don't. Don't start. Shit. Larson. Well, Lars is good friends with Stephanie, so it's. We're going to be the new Trace Amigas. We're going to be the new Trace Amigas.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh. And then on a different note, since we didn't do any really, but Larson.

[Tamra Judge]

Doesn'T have a private chat. I was kidding.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I know. Why not?

[Tamra Judge]

I know.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Get that private jet, honey.

Before all the algorithm fed blah and the endless sea of dupes, shopping used to feel more, well, fun. But here's a confession Dirty Rush listeners. You can find that fun feeling again on ebay. It's not mindless scrolling. It's a fashion pursuit. I love using filters for condition and price saving searches and spotting verified listings. It makes shopping feel smart and exciting again. And when you score that rare Adidas Collab or that Dior saddlebag you've been manifesting, it's a rush.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, I have an advice question for you because now that we've. We kind of blew this episode, I think was a little bit of a filler and then shit will hit the fan again next week. I think that's what. How it tends to work with all these housewives shows. I mean, now that we've watched a few, I kind of see how it ebbs and flows. But do you. So this weekend I don't have the kids. Do you? And I'm gonna go on like, a little getaway by myself.

[Tamra Judge]

By yourself?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. Do we think I'm gonna be sad or I'm gonna be happy? It's close to the house?

[Tamra Judge]

Like, what do you mean, by yourself? You're scaring me. Like, just going, like, to a hotel.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Cause for me it's. When. With the nesting. I feel sometimes like I'm. I don't even know how to say this, but, like, I'm. When I'm not feeling well and I'm laying in bed and the kids are around and it's not my, like, time to, you know, really. I feel like I get more lonely. So I was thinking maybe if I go and I, like, can be somewhere where I can go on, like, little beach walks or do things.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay, so a little change of scenery for you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Change of scenery. Not a getaway, I would say a change of scenery.

[Tamra Judge]

Change of scenery. I think that'll be good for you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

You think it'll be good for me? Because I'm like, already I'm starting to feel a little bit better, I think. But then I don't really know because last night I was awake until one in the morning even though I went to bed at like nine.

[Tamra Judge]

Why?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I. I have no idea.

[Tamra Judge]

Is it like. Is it stress or is it medication?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I don't know.

[Tamra Judge]

Can they give you something to sleep?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I. I was about to Take Avena. But then I was like, is it too late? And then I'll wake up and then I'll be. I don't know.

[Tamra Judge]

You could have taken like a bite of it or something.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. I was like, I need to ask my doctors, like, should I. Maybe I should think about doing Morvena, like during the day? Not doing more. I have.

[Tamra Judge]

Doing some.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Doing some. Because you should.

[Tamra Judge]

You should at least try it. You should try it. It's not going to hurt you. It's all natural.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. I mean, because I've heard a lot of people that are in treatment actually do that. So I want to talk to my doctor about it, because let me know.

[Tamra Judge]

I'll send you more. I don't know what you have and what you don't have, but I can always send you some.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah, but I mean, to the other moms out there, I don't know if there's this extra added, like a little bit of anxiety or whatever about like the kids schedules because, like, they're out of camp and school hasn't started yet. There's like, that's downtime.

[Tamra Judge]

When does school start for you guys?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Like still like another two weeks.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, I think because they go back.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

For like a day.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, so they go out. Oh, okay.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

That.

[Tamra Judge]

You know, when we went to school, we started after Labor Day.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. Let's just. I don't know why they changed it.

[Tamra Judge]

Kids in our neighborhood start like in the. On the 22nd. So they start like next week.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

So. Yeah. So I'm going to Yamava.

[Commercial Announcer]

Oh, you are?

[Tamra Judge]

Yes. So It's Eddie's grandma's 100th birthday, 100 years old, and she wanted to go to a casino.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh. You guys are gonna have so much fun at Yamaha.

[Tamra Judge]

And I think Vegas would be too overwhelming for her. So in Yamava, remember they had that big casino and.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And they had night. Remember that delicious place we went to eat there?

[Tamra Judge]

We're having dinner there for her birthday. Eddie and his aunt are having, like, shirts made they were all wearing with her face on it and saying 100th birthday.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I can only imagine this. And Yamaha.

[Tamra Judge]

I know. They're like, can you.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

How's the valley of you?

[Tamra Judge]

I know. And they're sent. We're sending pictures of her. They're going to do pictures inside the casino of her. All kinds of stuff. They want to know what her favorite slot machine is. And it's gonna be fun. I've never. I've never. My family, I should say, has never been that family. That's like, oh, let's all wear matching T shirts and we're gonna go to Disneyland, you know, and stuff. We've never done stuff like that, so.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I think it'll be fun. Can you pull a little bit of a documentation of it on the gram for me so I can live vicariously when I'm laying down?

[Commercial Announcer]

100 years old.

[Tamra Judge]

We were. Her birthday is actually the following weekend, but she's doing something with other family. So we're like, okay, let's do the weekend before. But the following weekend there's actually a. She only speaks Spanish.

[Commercial Announcer]

So there's.

[Tamra Judge]

There was a Spanish speaking concert. And I thought, oh, we'll get tickets, we'll do that. And then. Well, we couldn't because she had something else to do. Very busy at 100 years old.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She's booked up.

[Tamra Judge]

I know.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

She's a hundred and more booked up than I am.

[Tamra Judge]

I know, right? I'm like, whoa.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh my gosh. Well, I can't wait to hear all the details.

[Tamra Judge]

Doing well. Like, it's just. That's amazing.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And that probably makes Eddie so happy too, that he can go and do that with all of you guys.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah, yeah. Because I was even going, should we do like a 99 and a half? You know, this was when. After she turned 99. Just because you just, you know, you don't know. Yeah. And yeah.

[Commercial Announcer]

100 years old.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Well, are you gonna play the slots?

[Tamra Judge]

Maybe. I'm not a big gambler.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Can you make some money? No, I'm not a big gambler, but I wouldn't mind if you made us money.

[Tamra Judge]

Okay, I'll make us some money.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Okay, perfect. Well, have fun this weekend, Tam. I love you.

[Tamra Judge]

It's next weekend. I'm actually. I'm going to Big Bear. I have not been and.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh my gosh. You and the Big Bear.

[Tamra Judge]

Three weeks it's been since I've been there. Eddie's. Eddie's gone. But I haven't. I just. So busy, Ted. Like, I feel like ever since the show started, from New York time I was in New York to home, it's like I just can't sit down.

[Commercial Announcer]

It's every day something all day long.

[Tamra Judge]

And yeah, it's just one thing. So we're going to Big Bear. We have like three days, four days maybe. We're going, we're coming back. I have a big vena photo shoot, then we go to Yama, then I get home and then I have press days and then I'm going to Yellowstone and it's just. It's a lot. Yellowstone's fun.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

That's.

[Tamra Judge]

That's a vacation.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

That'll be fun. Yeah. That'll give you a little. A little break.

[Tamra Judge]

So our next podcast, I'll be in. I'll be in Big Bear, relaxing.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Perfect. So what shows do we have that come out next week?

[Tamra Judge]

Well, when does Salt Lake City actually come out? Six weeks now. Is that what it is? Usually six weeks.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

September 16th. Okay. Yeah. So about a month. So you're, you know, five, six weeks.

[Tamra Judge]

So we'll have three shows on at one time.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. So we'll have Salt Lake City. We'll have Orange County. Orange County. And we have Miami.

[Tamra Judge]

What are we doing with the London. The Real House of London? Because I. People possibly trying to, you know, want us to recap it. I mean, I'm. I'm for it if people want to hear it. I know that.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Let's watch the first episode, I think, and see how we feel. Okay. Because I'd rather us recrap. Recrap. Let's re. Crap quality, not quantity.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. Yeah, for sure.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

So if we love it, I think we should recap it, because then we would be doing a disservice by not. But if we watch it and we're like, kind of how we felt about when we were watching Dubai.

[Tamra Judge]

Right? I. I can't wait for Salt Lake City to come out.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm already missing the Valley.

[Commercial Announcer]

You are?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yes. I know. I know.

[Tamra Judge]

People are saying our Valley episode was really good.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, I know. They loved it.

[Tamra Judge]

And I'm like, what do we do? I can't remember.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

We were funny that day. Some days were funny Some days.

[Tamra Judge]

Some days we're not.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Sometimes I feel like a nut.

[Tamra Judge]

Sometimes I don't. That could be a theme song.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

That is actually my theme song. I live by that.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, Orange county is a. Well, I haven't actually watched it. I've only heard bits and pieces and. Yeah, I mean, I literally hit a mental breakdown at that point. Mental breakdown. I was just so sad and things were. I just felt like nobody gave a how I felt except for Heather. And they're always, always coming at me. And evidently, Xanax and alcohol don't mix.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I was wondering if you took a Xanax.

[Tamra Judge]

I did you, girl. After you were diagnosed, I was living on Xanax.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I was wondering. I was like, is she. Is that a zan. Because one of your eyes was a little bit off. Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

No.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

And I was like, is she on a Xanax?

[Tamra Judge]

Teddy? I lived on Xanax those first, like, six Weeks after you were hospitalized. Like, I. I had to film. I had to film and try not to really talk about it. But then, you know, it's out there all over the press and getting asked questions and my mind not being there. And just. This was where I hit a wall.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm glad you told me about the Xanax, because this last episode, what Dolores and I did the recap, we were like, there's something askew with the way that Tamara's face looks.

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. Oh, great. What was I doing?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah. No, it was just one. I mean, not like I've never taken a Xanax before and had been askew in my life, but it just. No, like, your. One of your eyes was. This is like more closed. Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

Well, I would take, you know, back then, just to get through filming, I would take a half of one and I would be okay, but you would notice I was very mellow. And then that day there, I mixed it with alcohol.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Yeah, and that'll do it.

[Tamra Judge]

That was a no. I don't remember any of it.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Oh, my gosh. Well, now you're bringing me back. Don't you worry, guys. I'll be recapping it with either Dolores or Erica soon enough. I'm just waiting.

[Tamra Judge]

Where's Erica?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Erica is out of town. Okay. Yeah.

[Tamra Judge]

Cast trip, I'm assuming.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I have no idea.

[Tamra Judge]

Not too many things have leaked. We've only seen a couple things come out about, you know, fans taking pictures and posting the Denise stuff.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

We saw them saying that the Hermes shoot of Doreen, her bags were old.

[Tamra Judge]

And wrinkled, and her bags looked old and wrinkled.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

So it's fake shot.

[Tamra Judge]

Isn't it crazy the things that fans pick up on?

[Teddi Mellencamp]

How do people notice that one? Even once I saw it, I still didn't notice it, but I was like, what?

[Tamra Judge]

Yeah. I would have never noticed things like that.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Like, now I wonder if it's true. Maybe she was doing returns.

[Tamra Judge]

Oh, my God. Maybe she wore it and returned it. Somebody's so funny. Somebody said that about me because there was a filming that was put out of order, you know, so, you know, sometimes you film if they don't show it until a different time in the season. So it was me and Sophia going through my clothes, and I had the brown dress that I actually wore to Heather's party. So after the scene was shot, before Heather's party, because obviously took the tags off and the dress is right there. And then when they showed me and Sophia going through my clothes, it was after Heather's party and the tags were on it. They're like, oh my God. She leaves the tags on and then she returns it.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

I'm like, people are so I, I, I didn't put it together that way. I was just like, oh, one and done. She wore it, now she's done with it.

[Tamra Judge]

I, I do like, I mean, very few dresses I hold on to. Like, especially because, I mean, I always have a few staple dresses that I hold on to, but something like that, I'll probably never wear it again.

[Commercial Announcer]

Never.

[Tamra Judge]

So Sophia's slacking on putting them on my ebay because she works now and has a boyfriend. So. And I don't really have to do a poshmark because my demographic is different. AKA your old mom nobod on poshmark.

[Teddi Mellencamp]

Once you're oh my gosh. Well, I'm excited for you to have a little getaway this weekend with Eddie and be able to take a little break and then we'll come back and we'll be recapping our shows next week, guys. So we'll talk to you soon. Bye Bye.
