Teddy Mellencamp
Two T's in a.
Zynn
Pod with Teddy Mellencamp and Tamara Judge.
Teddi Mellencamp
Hi guys.
Saks
Welcome to another episode of two T's in a Pod with myself, Teddi Mellencamp.
Tamara Judge
And and Tamara Judge. Today we have a very special guest.
Teddi Mellencamp
Very special guest.
Tamara Judge
Your high school buddy.
Teddi Mellencamp
My no, like, from fourth grade on, even though you said he was my age, which was a real dick move because he's two years older. But we have Shepherd Rose. Shep is fresh from his spiritual journey in Costa Rica and continues to work on his inner peace and is determined to make real growth. The newfound perspective has given Shep an open heart. And an eternal bachelor has fallen head over heels for new flame former Miss Bahamas. But we have to dig into this because I heard that that maybe this bio. I think this bio is not up to date. Chap. Let's bring him in. Hey, Chef, I hate for you to like, sit up straight or like, look like you gave two shits about being with this podcast.
Tamara Judge
He's like, I don't. Let's get this.
Teddy Mellencamp
You're the one that switched the time. Or I guess I switched the times, too. It's been a hectic week.
Teddi Mellencamp
Sorry. I am nesting right now, so I'm all over the place. So it's a little bit of a shitstorm around here.
Tamara Judge
Has no idea what that means.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, because he's never kept a relationship for more than a year out of the game. Two and a half. But how many times did you cheat on her?
Teddy Mellencamp
What does that have to do with anything?
Teddi Mellencamp
She knows of four.
Teddy Mellencamp
Who said that?
Teddi Mellencamp
Taylor.
Tamara Judge
Oh, well, isn't that like so too.
Teddy Mellencamp
She should know because, I mean, my phone was gone through several times, so let's just put it that way.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God.
Teddi Mellencamp
Well, we'll. We'll start on some more positive things about other people and then dig into you.
Saks
I mean, is Craig a liar?
Teddi Mellencamp
I love Craig. And if I had to pick somebody that I would be interested in from Your show, it would be Craig. But he's still lying.
Teddy Mellencamp
Oh, yeah. I mean, Teddy. I don't see you guys clicking. I'm kidding. No, he. He's just. He's. I. I mean, what.
Teddi Mellencamp
What.
Teddy Mellencamp
How we all fell in love with Craig, you know, the audience was his fallibility and his, like, silliness, and he. He'd laugh at himself and. And it's all just. It's so. It's so minuscule. It's like tiny, little, dumb, pointless stretches of the truth sometimes. You know what I mean? And he. He's gotten better, but. Yeah, I mean, it's not. It's not, like, worth having a tribunal over.
Teddi Mellencamp
Who do you think lies more, Craig or Austin?
Teddy Mellencamp
I mean, Austin doesn't tell anybody anything, so.
Teddi Mellencamp
Just withholding the truth sometimes, but he's.
Teddy Mellencamp
Very close to the vest. But he wants to hear what you have to say, that's for sure. Oh, yeah. He's a big gossiper. You know, even his. His girlfriends are like. He's like. Like a girl sitting in a hair salon. If you give him the chance.
Tamara Judge
I like him. Chef, can you shed some light? Teddy said that you guys went to school together.
Teddi Mellencamp
He thinks we hooked up. Can you?
Tamara Judge
I did. No, I'm not saying that. Can you just tell us a little bit about.
Teddy Mellencamp
Kiss once, Teddy?
Teddi Mellencamp
No.
Teddy Mellencamp
No. Okay. We definitely didn't go any further than.
Teddi Mellencamp
You were always crying to me about Jenny Sonfield. We were never.
Teddy Mellencamp
Or Julianne or Julianne Wysocki, like.
Teddi Mellencamp
And then you were. But you were a nice guy then. You weren't a player then.
Teddy Mellencamp
No, I was. I wasn't. I did not have a whole lot of confidence in the female world. I mean, I was just like. I was really into sports, remember? Like, I didn't care about holding hands or kissing and stuff. I just wanted to play basketball.
Tamara Judge
How was Teddy back then? Do you remember?
Teddy Mellencamp
He was overconfident.
Tamara Judge
Oh, so nothing's changed?
Teddy Mellencamp
No, I'm kidding. I mean, she was a year younger.
Teddi Mellencamp
But, you know, years younger.
Saks
Wait a minute, Chef, how old are you?
Teddi Mellencamp
44.
Teddy Mellencamp
5.
Saks
Oh, you're 45.
Tamara Judge
Okay.
Saks
You were right.
Tamara Judge
She said you were two years older, and I said, I think.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yes, I was in ninth grade when he was in 11th grade.
Teddy Mellencamp
Well, you were.
Teddi Mellencamp
You were saying overconfident. But this is how she.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, but Teddy, weren't you held back?
Teddi Mellencamp
No, I barely graduated. I took an exit exam. Never went to college.
Teddy Mellencamp
Teddy was great. Teddy was great. But, like, that's the thing. Like a year or even. And especially two years in High school seems like a, you know, a giant gap, right? And we were definitely having fun. And Teddy, you know, Teddy had that amazing house and pretty loose rules over at that house. And an amazing pool is on the beach. And we all lived in generally the same area, so we just ride our bikes over to each other's house and have a beer.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, but Shep had. The thing I remember the most about Shep is all year long, him and his brother, Whitaker and Katie, like, they would have this Christmas party and write down the list of people who could come every year. We'd all be like, I went and piss off Shep.
Tamara Judge
Shep's for the big party.
Teddy Mellencamp
You were always invited and you know it.
Teddi Mellencamp
I never. There were some parties I didn't get invited to, but I always got invited to yours.
Teddy Mellencamp
But yeah, there was an epic Christmas party. Well, they used to have, like, my dad would play Santa and the younger kids would come and they'd give them gifts and. And there was good food there. Remember? There was like awesome barbecue and dessert and stuff.
Saks
Teddy, did your dad allow you to have parties at the house?
Teddi Mellencamp
Absolutely not.
Saks
No.
Teddi Mellencamp
I lived with my mom.
Tamara Judge
Oh, okay.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah. But remember that one time Teddy called me and was like, my dad's in town and he wants to play football on the beach, gather up some guys. I was like, okay, I'll be right there.
Tamara Judge
Did you do it?
Teddy Mellencamp
I think so. Yeah, absolutely. And then there's that time where we all the. We were in PE class, sitting in the bleachers and remember Teddy Sid Finkley, the PE teacher who was so ridiculous.
Teddi Mellencamp
He's like, he hated me.
Teddy Mellencamp
He hated everybody. And then your dad's then new wife Elaine walked into the gym and down the hall, I mean, the guys were like, all of y'all took a shit.
Teddi Mellencamp
Like, she.
Tamara Judge
She's a supermodel.
Teddi Mellencamp
19 year old supermodel. And she walks in and all my guy friends are like this.
Teddy Mellencamp
Nobody had set foot in the Hilton Head Prep gym quite like clay.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God.
Saks

Tamara Judge
Well, I heard. We heard you broke up with your girlfriend, Santa.
Teddy Mellencamp
No, no, no, it wasn't like that. What? Yeah.
Teddi Mellencamp
Before we get into the breakup, I need to talk about the awkward scene. I never have seen you, like, on the phone, seeming so, like, wanting.
Saks
You're a giddy.
Teddi Mellencamp
You were giddy, but you also, like, were like, I'll come, like, if you want me to come.
Tamara Judge
Like, you were falling hard for her.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, yeah. It was over. Let's call it six months. She came to Charleston first and then. And then I had a house party in Hilton Head and I brought her to that. And we had just fun on fun and just really, like, you know, early passionate and just like, laughing and had lots to talk about. And then I went down to the Bahamas to see her. Met her mom and her sister and her grandma, who's a huge Bravo fan. She was so sweet.
Teddi Mellencamp
Of course.
Teddy Mellencamp
She is so sweet. And we went out, we had drinks at the Four Seasons and down in Nassau. It was lovely. And. Yeah. And then she came up to the mountain house in Linville, and then we took a little break because of something that happened.
Tamara Judge
What did you do? What did you do?
Teddy Mellencamp
I didn't do anything.
Teddi Mellencamp
You're already lying.
Teddy Mellencamp
No, no, no, I'll tell you exactly. So I bought her flight to Hilton Head and Charleston the first two trips. And I was, like, happy to do it, right. And then I went down to Nassau and she was very generous. She got me a hotel room at the Bahamar and boy, we had fun. Bahamas was amazing. And I mean, you know, we had so much fun. And then I was like, come to Linville and bring a friend because my parents are going to be in Spain and I've got the whole house. And so she invited her very nice gay friend Chris, and I go, okay, guys, here's the deal. Fly into Charlotte. I'm going to send a car down to get you. It's a two hour, four hour round trip, two hours there, two hours back. So it doesn't make sense for me to drive down and pick you up. Oh, okay, okay. And the friend was like, I got my flight. And I was like, awesome. I was like, sienna, get on that flight. And she was like, I will, I will. I was like, because y'all need to arrive at the same time, and so excited. And then the day before she was slated to land, she was like, hey, I've been really busy. Will you just get my flights? And I was just like. I said, yeah, okay. And I bottled it up. And then after the weekend, I said something to her. You know, we were, you know, brushing our teeth in the morning, and I.
Teddi Mellencamp
Was like, hey, how shitty of a way did you say it to her?
Teddy Mellencamp
No, no, no. I said, I really need to get this off my chest. I had, by the way, great job, great time this weekend. But, like, I needed to say this. And I was like, I just don't appreciate the way that was handled. And, you know, I made a lot of plans and I took care of everything. But, like, you don't have to meet me even halfway. Just meet me somewhere in the middle or near the. In the bell curve somewhere, because I'm not a desperate man who's flying girls around. And I was like, I'm really kind of. I bragged to my family and friends how successful and entrepreneurial you are.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah. You even shaded Taylor talking about how successful she was, comparatively speaking, which I did not like.
Teddy Mellencamp
I know. I. I didn't mean to say it that way. Let's put it that way.
Tamara Judge
Dick move.
Teddy Mellencamp
You know, I just didn't. I. You know how it is when you're. That. That camera's on and that interview room, and you're just like, oh, let me kind of be provocative. Yeah, it's not good.
Tamara Judge
Oh, no, I don't.
Teddi Mellencamp
Would never know such a thing. Because she's an angel.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, yeah.
Tamara Judge
No, I say everything to piss people off anyway, so.
Teddy Mellencamp
So I did say. So I said that. And she was indignant. She was like, where I come from, you know, the man takes care of everything. I was like, well, would you. How about the young mentor young girls you might mentor? Or would you tell them that, hey, don't worry about it. Man takes care of everything. That's a bad thing to think and to. To practice, frankly. So anyhow, I was like, maybe we should take a step back. And she was like, yeah, okay. I was like, you know, I have nothing but wonderful memories. And I was really into you. And we did. And then she sent me a text a month later with us in Linville, all dressed up and hugging each other in front of the house. And she was like, I don't feel this strongly about people very often, and I think we can make this work. And I was like, oh, my God. I was like. So I was like, that's so sweet, because I felt the same way, you know?
Teddi Mellencamp
So you're back together then?
Teddy Mellencamp
We got back together. We went to Out West.
Teddi Mellencamp
I don't feel any chemistry with you guys.
Tamara Judge
I don't think we've seen enough to determine what broke you guys up. Or is it on the show? It's on the show.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah. Look, as painful as it was, it's compelling. So y'all please watch it. I have, like, no anxiety about how I handled things at all. I was.
Saks
So you're proud of yourself.
Teddy Mellencamp
Oh, I don't know about that. I mean, I was crestfallen, you know, and it was happening in real time.
Teddi Mellencamp
You can't use big words with us, chef.
Teddy Mellencamp
We don't know what you're saying on camera. On camera, it happened, which is rare. But, like, you know, I told. I tell anybody that I start dating. Like, this is what I do. It's for, like, three, four months a year. If you don't want in, you. You. You know, I can't work with that, because I'm not gonna be. I'm not gonna have a secret girlfriend.
Tamara Judge
What are you doing when you're not filming?
Teddy Mellencamp
Going around the world, chasing travel. Yeah.
Saks
Is this show.
Tamara Judge
Is the show your.
Saks
Your main.
Tamara Judge
Is the show your main job, or do you have a job outside of Bravo?
Teddy Mellencamp
I don't have a job. You think I'd have a boss? He crazy.
Tamara Judge
Bravo's your boss.
Teddy Mellencamp
I invest in things and different. I've got a lot of coals in the fire. I mean, Teddy knows this. I think about me like, I don't need much. You know, I don't need a giant house, and nor do I really want one. I just want to have the freedom to do the things that I love. And then after I. After I did ayahuasca.
Tamara Judge
Oh, we need to talk about that.
Teddy Mellencamp
I'm writing a book about it. I've already written 32,000 words.
Saks
Wow.
Teddi Mellencamp
How many pages is that?
Teddy Mellencamp
150. So the name of it, Teddy, you'll like. I was. I went there to sort of deal with my dabbling in excess for, oh, so many years. And.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, because you're pretty hammered at.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, at BravoCon, the whole time, I was hammered. Correct. So anyhow, thanks for the champagne. Just to add to. I'm just kidding.
Teddi Mellencamp
No, you brought a bottle of, like, whiskey or something.
Teddy Mellencamp
Jesus Christ. Anyhow, so I went for a shirt.
Teddi Mellencamp
That had whiskey pouring into a cup.
Teddy Mellencamp
Right, right. Yeah. It was a bad version of myself. I got Vegas. But no, it was more than that. It was me coming to the realization that I can't do things the way that I've done them for so long. My body and my mind physiologically was just like, no, no, no, no, no. You're going to black out and make a fool out of yourself and you're going to be embarrassing. It's not funny anymore. It used to be funny when my friends would like compare notes and be like, oh my God, you know, but now it's just like, dude, not funny. So I got.
Teddi Mellencamp
That makes it a little hard.
Tamara Judge
Are you saying you're sober?
Teddy Mellencamp
No.
Teddi Mellencamp
He's already drinking on the show this season.
Tamara Judge
I know, but that film last year.
Teddy Mellencamp
In the Road, you know, try to.
Teddi Mellencamp
No hard alcohol. Is that the rule?
Teddy Mellencamp
Try to.
Teddi Mellencamp
Try to.
Teddy Mellencamp
So no, I was living like Keith Richards.
Tamara Judge
You know what I'm saying?
Teddi Mellencamp
I love when you compare yourself to a full blown rock star.
Teddy Mellencamp
I thought I was. I thought I was a rock star.
Tamara Judge
He was living like one.
Teddy Mellencamp
I mean, and Taylor used to say that to me. She's like, you think you're a rock star? I was like, well, I got a lot of free time and pocket full of cash. Yeah, maybe I do. I get that. And you know, everybody wants to hang out, everybody wants to buy shots and then, you know, one thing leads to another, so. And then, you know, got, you know, I don't need to get into that. But anyhow, the ayahuasca. Yeah. And so they said, you take two cups, two little shot glasses. And they said, we want you to do that. After that, the bar is open, so to speak. And so I had the amazing vision, Teddy. After two, two or three. After three cups, I saw an amusement park ride where the swings hang down and then it spins around and the swings fly out and everybody's laughing. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Teddi Mellencamp
Yes. I hate those rides.
Teddy Mellencamp
Okay, well, everybody I knew and loved were in the swings laughing and carrying on. And I looked closer and I was the pole. And so I had to be sturdy, I had to be reliable or my amusement park life would be shattered and everyone would get hurt. And so that was like, I was.
Teddi Mellencamp
Like, how long was this trip? Like how.
Teddy Mellencamp
You know, it was like on and off. Like you'd go into a deep sort of like, I don't know, trance. And it's like your webs are being untangled all the inside of you and you're like, ah. I mean, it's crazy. And then you come out of it and you're like. And you sort of walk around and then maybe you take another Cup. So after my fourth cup, when I'm going there to deal with excess.
Teddi Mellencamp
Oh, yeah, after I took more cups than anybody else. If I.
Teddy Mellencamp
More people did more. But anyhow, so I go back to my mattress and I have my journal mattress. You have a mattress, a pillow, a blanket, and a barf bucket.
Tamara Judge
Did you throw up?
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, I threw up. Not as much as a lot of other people around me, though. So I go back to. And I write in my journal because I knew after the fourth cup, like, I was about to trip balls. And I wrote in my journal, why must I always lick the jar like Winnie the Pooh with the honeypot on his head? And that's kind of what I was going there to deal with and to confront.
Teddi Mellencamp
Absolutely not.
Teddy Mellencamp
That's what.
Teddi Mellencamp
What is with two different Bravo Liberty men going to do their self help with ayahuasca? Because you realize Jesse Lally from the Valley did the same thing.
Teddy Mellencamp
Good for him. Good for him.
Teddi Mellencamp
Do you think it made you better in any ways?
Teddy Mellencamp
It made me better. And what it did, I mean, I could go into it, but you'll have to read the book. But one thing, one huge takeaway. There was so many people there with so much trauma in their lives and loss and pain and abuse, and they were very open and honest about it. And I heard about it. And you know, you're like, oh, my God. Like, one woman the first night was screaming on her. They moved her outside and they. The staff was amazing. They were like, breathe, settle down. And then she started laughing maniacally. I was like, whoa. And then the next day I found her and I was like, hey, are you okay? She's like, I'm better than okay, Shep. I was like, oh, good, good. I was like, do you want to share? And she said, yeah. My mother committed suicide when I was 12 years old. And I was with her last night. And we got to the root of a lot of things. I know I get goosebumps even talking.
Tamara Judge
I know.
Teddy Mellencamp
And so that was so my huge takeaway. One of Teddy was how lucky I've been and how much gratitude I should feel and how much empathy I should give to everyone around me at any particular time, anyone walking down the street. Because there is a shit ton of trauma in the world and. And ayahuasca really helps with that, honestly. You know, I went there because I was getting wasted, right? There's people going there for real, real deep seated stuff. I had grown men crying in my arms at breakfast about how terrible their fathers were and things like that. So really, really eye opening and really. And so. But it's not a magic pill. I came back and did some stupid shit, reverted back to my old ways and I was. But I was hard on myself. I knew it was wrong. No, no, we can't do that.
Tamara Judge
Would you do it again?
Teddy Mellencamp
Absolutely.
Teddi Mellencamp
What stupid things did you do?
Teddy Mellencamp
Just drinking. You know. I was out in Nashville and just got hammer time and don't know how I got back to the hotel. And then this girl who I knew was like chef, what the are you doing? You know. And I was like, oh no. She's. I was worried about you because I was worried about you getting home safely. Essentially you were just out there.

Teddi Mellencamp
What about this? How you said in your confessional that Taylor's family all wants you to be with her?
Teddy Mellencamp
No, that was a while ago, Lori.
Teddi Mellencamp
And was like no on social media.
Teddy Mellencamp
I. I don't care about it. I didn't read what she said. But would you like me to tell you I memorized?
Saks
No.
Teddy Mellencamp
It's none of my business what everybody else says.
Teddi Mellencamp
Are you still in love with her?
Tamara Judge
No.
Teddi Mellencamp
Don't bullshit me.
Teddy Mellencamp
Oh.
Tamara Judge
He paused.
Teddy Mellencamp
I'm not. I just care about her deeply, you know, and worry about her. But look, I mean, before I went did Ayahuasca, I had lunch with her mom and her sister at a restaurant in Mount Pleasant and they were so supportive. I was really close with them. We. And no, I don't read their mind. But the fact that.
Tamara Judge
Do you consider yourself friends with Taylor?
Teddy Mellencamp
No. I mean, that's not my choice.
Tamara Judge
Not at all.
Teddi Mellencamp
Why did you. What's the chick's name that had sex with you and Gaston?
Teddy Mellencamp
Sally.
Tamara Judge
Sally.
Teddi Mellencamp
I didn't know that we needed to see her. I gotta tell you.
Teddy Mellencamp
Okay.
Teddi Mellencamp
Are we gonna see more of her?
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, you are.
Teddi Mellencamp
We are.
Teddy Mellencamp
And I mean, look, you know, if you. I raised a lot of money for the hurricanes in western North Carolina by selling shirts. So very happy. Proud of. And I was messaging with her, her mom and dad, about where, what charities I should send it to in the Asheville area.
Teddi Mellencamp
So Sally's or Taylor.
Saks
Taylor.
Teddy Mellencamp
They connected me to these great charities and people that they know and trust. So does that mean they want me to get back together? Absolutely not. That's absurd. Was that. Did I think that a year and a half ago? Yeah, I did. A year and a half ago. But, you know, things change.
Teddi Mellencamp
Is Gaston a cheater? Because that's what Sally's making him out to be.
Teddy Mellencamp
I don't know him. I don't know him. He doesn't want to know me. I know that he's not pleased about my existence.
Tamara Judge
Are they still together? Right?
Teddy Mellencamp
I guess so. Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. We have fan questions asking. Do you still speak to Thomas, Catherine, Chelsea, or Cam?
Teddy Mellencamp
I talked to Cam, and I love Chelsea to death. She just had a kid, Cam. Sort of like a hermit. Honestly, I just don't think she goes out a lot, but she and I were supposed to.
Teddi Mellencamp
How many kids does she have now?
Teddy Mellencamp
1. And she and I were supposed to go to the South Carolina Bigfoot Festival because we both are obsessed with Bigfoot. And I ended up. Whitney and I ended up going. We brought cameras. It's gonna be hilarious.
Teddi Mellencamp
Whitney's giving me a little bit of the ick. The way he said that to Molly about the cup, about eating.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah.
Teddi Mellencamp
You were nice to her in that moment. But, like, that's kind of. Is Whitney trying to be funny when he does that stuff?
Teddy Mellencamp
That's who Whitney is. He's absolutely inappropriate at all times. Like, I've seen him just. I'm like, did you just say that? Like, he has no filter? And. Or he. You know, and he just. And he and Molly have a long history, and I don't think.
Teddi Mellencamp
Long history or not. Does Whitney think that, like, his shit doesn't stink? Like, I can't even imagine the supermodel girl.
Tamara Judge
Are you shaking your leg?
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
You're always shaking your leg.
Teddy Mellencamp
Always, Always.
Tamara Judge
Why?
Teddy Mellencamp
Burning cows.
Tamara Judge
You have nervous energy all the time.
Teddi Mellencamp
Burning cows.
Teddy Mellencamp
I just can't stop. My whole mom's side of the family shakes their leg. My uncle. My grandfather did my.
Saks
Yeah, adhd.
Tamara Judge
My mom does, too. My brother drives me crazy.
Saks
They're either tapping.
Tamara Judge
Tapping on things or shaking. I'M like, stop. Yeah, it's.
Teddy Mellencamp
It's.
Tamara Judge
Yeah.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah. She gets really upset if she hears me chew.
Tamara Judge
Oh, I can. I got that thing where I don't want to hear anybody chewing or slurping or.
Teddy Mellencamp
Then don't do ayahuasca because you have to hear him barf.
Tamara Judge
You're so out of it. I don't think you even would even acknowledge that.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, it's always fascinating. If you have any sort of. Sort of things you want to be introspective about, I'd recommend looking into it. I'm sure in LA you can do it. Like, there's tons of people in.
Teddi Mellencamp
There's absolutely no way I could do ayahuasca. I do not like to feel out of control. Yeah, I like to throw up.
Teddy Mellencamp
Then you used to do mushrooms with us, Teddy. All the time.
Teddi Mellencamp
You guys would do the mushroom tea. I never did it. The only one time I did a water bong and I threw up everywhere and that was the end of it.
Tamara Judge
I did mushrooms once in Vegas is the worst experience of my life.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, I'm not a drug gal.
Teddy Mellencamp
Can we talk about who you hooked up with out of our. Out of our friend group?
Tamara Judge
Yes. Can we please? Yes.
Teddy Mellencamp
Scott.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yes.
Teddy Mellencamp
Bailey.
Tamara Judge
Yes. If you have to think about it.
Teddy Mellencamp
Carmines.
Teddi Mellencamp
Ew. No. Carmine.
Teddy Mellencamp
Well, we know that you did with. With Constable that summer. You. You had a thing for him. He remember my friend who's.
Tamara Judge
What is with these names?
Teddi Mellencamp
Was he long hair?
Teddy Mellencamp
No, he was like a mountain man. He was like.
Teddi Mellencamp
Oh, yeah, I liked Constable. Yeah, no, but you're missing the main one. Weird.
Teddy Mellencamp
Serati. Nick Rose. Nick Rose. Yeah. He was a popular guy.
Teddi Mellencamp
Welcome to my childhood.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, it was pretty damn good. So here's my. I had this wonderful epiphany, Teddy, on the last night I was on ayahuasca and I had just visions of my childhood. My mom making pancakes. Me and Whitaker hiding behind the couch while my sister got picked up for her first prom. My dad and my brother and I driving to T ball practice, me and Carmine's riding our bikes through Palmetto Dunes to the mall and. And just all this beautiful stuff. And I just started bawling, crying because how beautiful our. Our childhoods were. You know, it was like a dream. It really was. Don't you think?
Teddi Mellencamp
Well, you could have that same dream if you. Are you going to settle down and get married and have kids?
Teddy Mellencamp
I want to. Little Craig, I want to. I think Craig is.
Tamara Judge
You can just start dating Teddy. Bring her on over to Southern Charm and she's already got a built in family.
Teddi Mellencamp
After hearing how Shep is in bed. I'm good.
Tamara Judge
Oh, chef, do you want to clear that up?
Teddi Mellencamp
Who said that?
Teddy Mellencamp
Guess who said that. Sour grapes.
Tamara Judge
Oh, there you go.
Teddy Mellencamp
I mean, that's what. You know what? That's what. That's funny because I was like, okay, first of all, tacky as hell. Like, I would never comment on anybody in bed on national television. That's just like beyond the pale. But that's how I was. You know, that's how I am. I mean, my mom and dad would never allow. They would, they would faint if I started talking that way. But. But it reminded me of when Dwyane Wade and some of these NBA guys divorced their first wives. They, like, totally tried to poison the water for the next one. They were like, yeah, he's got herpes.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God.
Teddy Mellencamp
Remember all that? Yeah, that's exactly what it was like, because that's ridiculous. And I don't really care what she. I mean, she, she wanted me to ask her to marry her. So I guess I was doing.
Teddi Mellencamp
Here's the thing. I, I don't mind that. Yes, you're angry and annoyed about the things that she said and done, but you can't. Not angry. What? You're defensive Slightly.
Teddy Mellencamp
Well, you brought it up.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, I did bring it up. But my point is, there is a part of you that still really cares about her.
Teddy Mellencamp
And I know that 100%. And I care about her family. And I, I, I used to think about her all the time. Like, I want all the best for her. I want all these good things to happen to her. And, you know, what can I do? How can I help in any way? But I'm, I'm sort of an alien, I guess.
Saks
Do you think it's because you're so.
Tamara Judge
Close to her family?
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah. And her man. Like, when I met her, you know, she hadn't really been. I took her to California for the first time, Mexico for the first time, Europe for the first time. I was like. And I was happy to do it. Very happy, because I love being tour guide.
Teddi Mellencamp
You loved giving her those experiences.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah, I wanted to see her grow and blossom. And I, I think she still can't.
Teddi Mellencamp
You can't say that. You can't say I want to see her grow and blossom.
Teddy Mellencamp
Well, she did. She did when we, when we were together. But I, I definitely put her through some. I'm not gonna deny that. And when I look back, especially these days, I literally have, like, I'm like, oh, my God. I can't believe that time where I did this or, you know, and I mean, I could. There's just like a hundred little things where it was just uncool and bad and just took it for granted. Her absolute love and affection for me.
Teddi Mellencamp
Are you dating anyone now?
Teddy Mellencamp
No, I can't seem to find anybody.
Teddi Mellencamp
You ran out of the girls in Charleston.
Teddy Mellencamp
Oh, yeah. You won't. That's not the cards. But, yeah. I mean, the thing with Sienna is that I felt very strongly and I Maybe over. And that's. And I was so surprised.
Teddi Mellencamp
25 years old, Shep, 26.
Teddy Mellencamp
I was so shocked that I felt so strongly about someone so soon after. After Taylor and I's breakup, because typically it's.
Teddi Mellencamp
Yeah, she was Miss Bahamas, I'm sure. I would feel.
Tamara Judge
She's 26.
Teddi Mellencamp
She's 26 from Miss Bahamas and, like, itching to get on television and be with Shep the playboy like you. You knew what was coming.
Teddy Mellencamp
I liked it. Yeah. Not when it comes to.
Tamara Judge
How did you even meet her girls?
Teddy Mellencamp
Raya.
Tamara Judge
Oh.
Teddi Mellencamp
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I've scrolled through Riots. Doesn't look like a place for me.
Teddy Mellencamp
Oh, my God. I'm sort of obsessed with it. I need to relax because it's just like profile picture. Girls are just so gorgeous on it. I'm like, oh, my God.
Teddi Mellencamp
Well, you have to go through a process. You have to audition to get in.
Teddy Mellencamp
I was there early. I've had a lot of fun.
Teddi Mellencamp
No, men just have to have a certain amount of money. Women have to look a certain way.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah.
Teddi Mellencamp
I mean, I know the quality of people you're going to get from Raya.
Teddy Mellencamp
I know Matthew Perry was on it when he rested. Oh, yeah.
Teddi Mellencamp
He dated everybody.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah. Yeah. But anyways. Yeah. And I just. Look, you know me, Teddy. Give me a little bit of credit. I mean, Sienna, I would not fall for somebody who had. Didn't have any substance. Like we. She was a very interesting girl, and I really like talking to her and spending time with her. And we had a lot of very lovely, tender moments. And it was not for nothing. I mean, don't believe everything you see on tv. You know what I mean?
Teddi Mellencamp
No, I. I will give you credit. You're. I think you. You have a good heart and you're a good person and you're good at reading people just sometimes, you know, like us all, you make dumb mistakes.
Teddy Mellencamp
Blinded by the Bahamas. That should be my next book.
Teddi Mellencamp
You know what? But you still never sent me your.
Teddy Mellencamp
Last book, so I'll send you the both of Them.
Teddi Mellencamp
All right, well, we're proud of you, Shep. We hope that we see things play out through the season. We're enjoying recapping it.
Tamara Judge
One last question. Do you think Paige and Craig are going to get married?
Teddy Mellencamp
I don't know. I mean, I think. I know that he wanted to, and I think she's, like, super career oriented. I mean, that's sort of. That is a tale as old as time, either on the woman or the man's side. So I just don't know enough. And, you know, I love Paige, but we haven't sat down and had a cup of coffee. I mean, I. I just. I think she's a lot of fun, and I would like to banter with her more, frankly.
Tamara Judge
Thank you so much. We appreciate it. We're loving the show. I'm actually going back watching, like, season one. Going through. I've been sick for, like, two weeks, so I've been, like, in bed watching season one. Season two.
Teddy Mellencamp
Yeah. Yeah, I loved. I. I did an event in Boston recently, and they had, like, six TVs, all playing different seasons of our show in the room, and I was like. My head was on a swivel. I was like, no way. I remember that. Holy hell. So pretty cool.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God. Craig is the one that is, like, changed the most. He was, like a little, tiny, skinny, little boy.
Teddy Mellencamp
I'm like, yeah, I know. I know he was. I mean, he's honest about that. He's like, I was addicted to Adderall, and he wasn't eating, you know.
Tamara Judge
Oh, well, that'll do it.
Teddy Mellencamp
But he looks great now.
Tamara Judge
That helps you talk. That helps you talk on the show when you.
Teddy Mellencamp
Exactly. I mean, that's. I love that sort of honesty. And that's what I tried to do. Right. Talking openly in the. You know, in the reunion last year. And then this season, I like my. My Navy SEAL friend who I did ayahuasca with, said, shep, vulnerability is the new masculinity.
Tamara Judge
Yeah.
Teddy Mellencamp
And I was like, I love that. And that's how. That's the sign of confidence if you're able to share your struggles.
