Two Teas in a Pod with Teddy Mellencamp And Tamara Judge.
Tamara Judge
Foreign. Welcome to another episode of the Twat Seat with myself and Tamara Judge. We have a very special surprise guest, Trishelle Canatella, who I know that you guys are going to want to get into all the things about Traders and whatnot, but like, I was a die hard Real World fan. I mean, that was my prime. That's like what we freaking watched.
E
But you didn't know who Blonde Tips were.
Tamara Judge
But I forgot if you were with Blond Tips or ct, because I think that you and CT had sexual chemistry.
E
That's what Andy Cohen said. And I think that's so weird because I don't think either one of us are physically attracted to the other one. I don't know.
Tamara Judge
You never made out? Not even one time?
E
No. And we have been drunk together at appearances. Like in la. Like, no, me and. And actually Johnny Bananas. And I neither. And we were like, really wasted Spring break in Mexico and never did anything.
Unknown
Do you know, Johnny really grew on me when I first saw him. I met him for the very first time at Traders and his. Our first interaction was him flipping our car off. And that was the first night he's like. Like that. I'm like, oh, who's this douche? And then he came in pretty hot at Traders. Really hot. And I thought, oh, we are not going to get along at all. But we do. I really like him.
E
Was it the guitar playing? Because that's how he woos people over.
Unknown
It's the squirrels.
E
Oh, the squirrels. Yeah, his Instagram squirrels. That is very charming. It's like really the only charming thing about him.
Unknown
He. He lives on one or 10 and he has squirrels in his backyard and he feeds them. They're like pets.
E
It's cute. Like he. He always makes his steaks with his red wine and he shows like the photos of the stakes and everything. And then he's like, you know, the squirrel comes to the door and then he goes outside and feeds them.
Tamara Judge
It's like, what's the squirrel's name?
E
I don't know.
Unknown
I don't know. We'll have to get.
E
I don't listen to his videos. With volume.
Unknown
I was thinking about.
Tamara Judge
Okay, so you guys love him so much, but not enough to hear volume.
E
No.
Unknown
But I was thinking maybe this season on Orange county that I can hook you up with Bananas.
Tamara Judge
I don't think so. And he's over my age demographic.
Unknown
Oh, she only dates fetuses.
E
What's your age range?
Tamara Judge
I would say 28 to 38.
Unknown
And she's 43.
E
You're 43, actually. I like that.
Tamara Judge
But you have to, like, have had some baggage. Like, you have to be like, divorced, something. Like, I don't want a 38 year old that's been single their entire life. Yeah, no, you have to have some, like, emotional scarring.
E
Most people do at 38.
Tamara Judge
No, but if not, then, like, you're a real red flag.
E
Yeah. I mean, for me, I've always been attracted to younger people. I always tell my husband, he's the oldest person I've ever dated. He's only a year older than me.
Tamara Judge
Tamara likes to pretend she doesn't want to talk about sex ever, but I always make her talk about it. I'll talk about it.
Unknown
I mean, there's so many exciting things to talk about. Marriage, sex. No, but like 15 years into it.
Tamara Judge
But sex. You bought a sex chair off Amazon.
Unknown
It's not. It's now in storage. All it did was collect clothes at the end of my bed.
E
I'm only like. I'm going on eight years with my husband and whenever people talk about sex, I'm like, with your husband? Like, ew.
Unknown
No. There's something weird to me. Like, prior to being married, I had no problem talking about sex. But then once you're married, I just feel like it's disrespectful maybe.
Tamara Judge
Why? If you're giving complimentary information about your sex life. Okay, so I'm going to like to.
E
Talk about your past sexual life. Oh, yeah. Well, maybe I should have asked.
Tamara Judge
Talking about past sex life, if it's not already on a television show, I get it. But sex in general, Like, I don't think it's a terrible discussion.
Unknown
No, it's not terrible.
Tamara Judge
But also, I think as we mature, like. Like that. I'm not using the word age, I.
Unknown
Think all the way off.
Tamara Judge
I think sometimes our interests may change. Like, do you not think that as you've matured that your sexual preference has changed and what you liked and what you realize that you liked or not?
E
Yeah. As well. From my 20s to my 30s. Absolutely. Now it's like when you're married, like you said, it's kind of like you. I dialed back a little bit because I was like.
Unknown
Right. I mean, when we were dating, Eddie and I would have sex for like five hours. Like, that was like the running joke. Like, we would have sex 5 hours to lady Gaga.
Tamara Judge
Lady Gaga. What song?
Unknown
This was 15 years ago, but I know. Bad romance.
Tamara Judge
Absolutely.
Unknown
Ab.
Tamara Judge
Bad romance was your song.
Unknown
Yeah, that was our song. It was even my ringtone on my Phone at the time.
Tamara Judge
Would it make you tingle? Whenever.
Unknown
Just a little bit. Just a little bit.
Tamara Judge
Okay.
Unknown
But, wow, now I gotta rub on that estrogen and a progesterone, that testosterone.
E
I'm right behind you.
Tamara Judge
Right.
E
I'm right, babe.
Unknown
How about tomorrow?
Tamara Judge
No, I think tomorrow means it's not going to happen. Like, you're either going to want to do it in that moment, but, like, putting it off till tomorrow.
Unknown
I never say no.
Tamara Judge
You don't?
Unknown
No. Ever. I've never said no.
Tamara Judge
But can you have an O every time?
E
Yeah, every time. I need help.
Unknown
Why need help? I can need some help, too, with my little, little thing. That little round red thing.
Tamara Judge
Oh, you guys tap the link in my bio for my favorite cock ring. It's pink and $11. No, but hold on. I'm deceased. You never have said no.
Unknown
Never ever.
E
I believe that. Yeah.
Tamara Judge
That's great. That's nice for you.
Unknown
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
But are you a starfish or are you on top?
Unknown
I'm very tired to be on top these days.
Tamara Judge
That's what I'm saying.
E
At least you're.
Unknown
But I can bend it over the bed.
Tamara Judge
Oh. What's your favorite position?
E
Me? Let me see. I like.
Unknown
By the way, this is not in our rundown.
Tamara Judge
This is. We're. We're going off the cuff.
E
I actually love doggy style. I do.
Unknown
And then I get bladder infections from that.
Tamara Judge
It hurts me. It hits the end of my area.
Unknown
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
A doggy style is like, I could do it for a show for a second, but then it hurts me.
E
I used to love reverse cowgirl whenever my butt was, like, nice and tight, but now it's not as. So.
Tamara Judge
Okay, reverse cowgirl. But if you want a guaranteed O, what do you need to do?
E
I have to be on top.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, me too.
E
Yeah.
Unknown
Really?
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Have to be on top.
E
Yeah.
Unknown
So much. So much work.
Tamara Judge
Do you need music?
E
No.
Tamara Judge
Do you like talking dirty talk?
E
Yes, I do. But then it's.
Tamara Judge
Do you dirty talk back.
E
Okay.
Tamara Judge
And give me an example of things you would say.
E
No. Okay.
Tamara Judge
I will not do that.
E
But I will start crossing the line. Teddy Jo, we're to do with my husband. He's so, like, kind and sweet and like, a good guy. Like, definitely never dated that before.
Tamara Judge
For that reason.
E
Because I'm a naughty girl.
Unknown
Yeah, probably.
E
Yeah, probably so. But also, I mean, it's just hard to see him in that light because he. I want to keep him in on that pedestal.
Unknown
Yes. That's kind of how I feel too. And it's kind of when you start talking about your sex life. Married. We're 11 years into our marriage together. 15 years. It's just like, I don't want to talk about it. It's weird. I don't. I've never felt like this before.
E
Yeah. I definitely don't want to, like, own anybody else, that's for sure. Sure.
Unknown
That's how I feel.
E
Look at a guy and be like, wow. Like, I wonder what that would be like ever, ever, ever, ever. Which is surprising because I used to feel that way all the time before I met my husband. But I just. Yeah. With Frost. Yeah. Especially with prostitute. He was a naughty one. Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Well, okay, so we're at your home turf in New Orleans, which Tam likes to say. What?
Unknown
New Orleans?
Tamara Judge
No, you keep saying New Orleans.
E
New Orleans.
Unknown
New Orleans.
Tamara Judge
New Orleans.
E
Such a northerner.
Unknown
No, low.
Tamara Judge
New Orleans. And you have been like, our go to person of this.
E
Yes. Super bowl is kind of tricky. But, I mean, I think that we can go to some good parties. I think we can go wherever we want to. Honestly.
Unknown
You can get us in.
E
I mean, I think we can. Us three get in. Okay, but just saying. But, yeah, I love New Orleans. It's. I would say I want you all to come back when it's not so super bowl, because I think it's more fun just on a random weekend.
Unknown
I've never been.
E
Oh, my God.
Tamara Judge
I haven't been since high school when I would do the beads and show my tits and do all that since high school.
E
Did you really?
Tamara Judge
Oh, yeah. We would come for Mardi Gras and stay like all my friends.
E
Right. You were one of those. So like, whenever we ride. So I ride in parades, and so this year, I'm riding in two. So every time.
Tamara Judge
Ride in parades mean, like, there's floats.
E
And you know how, like, you were the girl showing your titties. I was on the float, given the beats, but I. Yes. Giving the beats to you because you're tall.
Tamara Judge
5 3. People don't get asked to, like, ride the floats as the model.
E
No. It's not like you have to be asked to join a crew, but there's, like, it's all local for, like, a long time of the parade. And then you get past a certain point, and it's all tourists, and that's when you start seeing the boobs. You just never see it.
Unknown
So it's always the tourists that.
E
It's always their boobies.
Tamara Judge
For the record, I'm not sure I actually showed the boobs, but I wanted to make sure that I had the most beads. Like, we would get in our, like.
Unknown
Very competitive SUV van.
Tamara Judge
And on the way back after, like, going to the Dave Matthews concert or whatever the hell, we would do fish.
E
Yes.
Tamara Judge
And we. I would be like, I have the most beads.
E
I did.
Tamara Judge
Great, Great.
E
You probably should something.
Tamara Judge
I mean, I don't know that my tits.
Unknown
Did you have titties then?
Tamara Judge
I mean, I had nipples.
Unknown
Oh.
E
I mean, when you're that high up, it doesn't matter. You can't see much.
Tamara Judge
I mean, I don't think that, like, my tits were something to write home about until they became fake 10 years ago.
E
Wow. I never knew that you had fake boobies.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, after I had my two of my kids, I had. Actually, I would. I struggled a bunch with, like, my weight and stuff, and I went in and I was like, hey. I said to the surgeon, I'm like, I want to get fake boobs and I want to get a. A tummy tuck. And she's like, I'll do your boobs because you've had two kids. But, like, I'm not giving you a tummy tuck. Like, change your lifestyle. Like, you don't need that right now. Like, if you're struggling in 10 years from now and you've made changes.
Unknown
Yeah, you're too young.
Tamara Judge
I'll talk to you about that. But, like, no, for sure, you need your tits done.
E
All right.
Tamara Judge
So then it was like a big wake up call. Like, I was like, oh, okay.
E
So I'm sorry, we got off a tangent. I'm just like, tell me all the plastic surgery everyone's had so I can, like, make lists and, like, know for myself.
Unknown
Oh, you look amazing.
E
You're very kind. Y'all are absolutely beautiful. They're stunning in person, but so New Orleans, I wanted to tell y'all Friday lunch, I'm so pissed that y'all didn't land earlier, because Friday lunches here are the most wild thing ever. Like, pretty much everyone shuts down work at noon on Fridays, like, every week. And you'll see, like, doctors and lawyers and just everybody. Politicians in the city. And everyone goes to the French Quarter and has lunch and does second lines.
Tamara Judge
How long have you lived here?
E
So I'm from Cut off, which is the Bayou, which is an hour south of New Orleans. And then I moved to LA for nine or 10 years, and then I moved back to New Orleans. So I was born and raised in Louisiana.
Tamara Judge
And how'd you meet your husband?
E
A tender.
Unknown
Oh, wait, he's a pilot, right?
E
Yeah, he was a fighter pilot. When I met him.
Unknown
Oh, fighter pilot?
E
Yeah. I thought it was really.
Unknown
That's sexy.
E
Yeah. He's very, very hot, like, in a uniform and everything. And now he flies for Delta. He was with the Air national guard flying F15C's for, like, 22 years.
Unknown
Does he know Pilot Pete?
E
No, but he wants to. But that's why Pilot Pete and I became such good friends, because we knew, like, a lot about the same lifestyle. Like, his whole family are pilots, and so I was like.
Unknown
So is he away a lot?
E
My husband?
Unknown
Yeah.
E
Yeah. Like, 50% of the time, he's always gone. But that works for me because I have a lot of friends, my girls and my gays that I like to go out with. And I am not a person who gets, like, super lonely.
Tamara Judge
So do you get jealous?
E
No.
Tamara Judge
Because you trust him?
E
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'm, like, not a jealous person, and he's not either, so I think it works. It. It really does.
Tamara Judge
Because, yeah, if there's trust, then it's. You're pretty good.
E
I don't have his location. I don't check his phone. I don't do any of that stuff.
Tamara Judge
From someone who's checked things a lot and not check things a lot. You. You're gonna find out or you're not gonna find out. Like, it doesn't matter how, like, on the horn you are about stalking somebody down.
E
I feel very, very comfortable when he leaves. Like, sometimes I won't even. Like, we won't even talk for, like, a day or two. And I know it's completely fine.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. I mean, I think everybody's relationship is different, but I do think being able to be vulnerable and say if you're having an insecurity or having a feeling is important in a marriage, in a relationship, whatever it may be. And I think that's probably why I fucked up.
E
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Like, I never said, like, I need this. I'm feeling this way. Like, I always just wanted to give the perception of, like, life's great. I'm always good. I'm confident, I'm happy. Yeah.
Unknown
Like, living in denial.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. But really, if I was. If I probably would have opened up and been like, you know, during. Through all my cancer stuff. If I was like, I'm actually feeling really insecure and low right now. Like, I need you.
E
Why do you think you didn't want to say that?
Unknown
I think it's just not who you are.
Tamara Judge
It's not really who I am. I. I don't. I'm not, like, an ask for favors person.
E
Okay. I'M kind of like that. You know what I mean?
Tamara Judge
Like, my friends, like, I'll never be the friend that, like, got my feelings hurt because I didn't get invited to something that other. Like, I just don't have that. I'm competitive with anything sports related. But, like, life.
Unknown
She'd be great on Traders.
Tamara Judge
I. I just don't have it. And, like, once I've been burned, then I kind of shut down.
E
Yeah, I'm kind of like that too. Actually. I'm not. I'm not the person to ask for favors. Like, I always. I think about that because I feel like I have some friends that, like, kind of trauma dump on me a little bit or, like, will ask me for a lot of things. And my husband's like, did you ever ask them for, like, one thing? And I'm like, no. Like, ever. But I don't ask anybody for anything. I'm taking care of some of myself. Like, I am very.
Tamara Judge
Like, I may be a shit show from time to time, but, like, Tamara, how many times have I called you and been like, I need you to help me with this?
Unknown
Never.
Tamara Judge
I don't.
E
Yeah, do it.
Tamara Judge
And I'm not saying that's the right thing to do. Like, maybe if I were to open up to my friends, I'd probably be in a better situation than I am now.
Unknown
I wish you would open up more, but I can't.
Tamara Judge
I really can't.
Unknown
Like, I text her the other day, go, I want to talk to you. And then she's like, what?
E
What?
Unknown
What? What? What's wrong? What's wrong? And I go, nothing. I just want to make sure you're okay. Like, I'm not sure that you're okay. Are you okay?
E
That's a good friend.
Tamara Judge
It's a good friend. But then the massive anxiety. Then I had to call her like, 44 times until she answered because I'm. We need to get through every little.
Unknown
Crumb of detail every single day on the pod. But I don't talk to her every single day off the pod. So I can see in knowing her so well, I could see in her face, like, she's not doing well.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. You know, but I think that's a therapy. It's. It's kind of like human nature. Like, you care about your friends, you love your friends, but, like, we're all going to go through.
E
Yeah.
Unknown
For sure.
Tamara Judge
And we have to kind of give each other a little bit of grace. Like, shit's not going to be good and I don't need you to Be a part of my shit.
E
Right. I mean, I just feel like at a certain age, everybody has some shit. And so I feel like some people I. I wish in my life would be a little bit more careful with what they choose, because I'm just like, if I've had a day and then I'm like, oh, my God. Like, somebody brings too much to me. I'm just like, it makes them. Gets. Gets me anxious. Like, I don't know if that's what you're right.
Tamara Judge
No, that's what I'm saying. I don't want to add to other people's plates. Like, I already know what they're going through. Like, what. What do you need me to call you with, like, tears in my eyes and say I'm scared about my future sometimes?
E
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Absolutely not. I'm not interested in doing that. And, like, I wasn't brought up that way. Like, you grin and bear it.
E
Yeah, suck it up, buttercup. As my mom used to always.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Like, you suck it up, buttercup. And if you can't, then, like, you're gonna have to find different outlets to figure it out. But I think that's why we all like each other.
E
I was gonna say why we're all in reality television show. Yes.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. No, I mean, I think there's obviously, if you've chosen to be on reality television show in any capacity, there's something about you that wants to be loved.
E
Yes. Yeah.
Tamara Judge
But that you want approval from other people.
Unknown
Let's talk about what's going on in your life now. So after you did Traders, were you asked to do other competition shows?
E
No. And I really thought that I would.
Tamara Judge
Maybe I owe my outfits. They weren't the best.
E
Outfits.
Tamara Judge
Both of Yalls outfits were. I was like.
E
I felt like we were cute. They told us castle chic. I was like, that's what we did. They gave us a lookbook.
Tamara Judge
I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Chrishell nailed it.
Unknown
But she's not really doing castle stuff.
Tamara Judge
No, she just loves good fashion.
E
She has good fashion.
Tamara Judge
I mean, I have terrible fashion. The fact that I'm gonna have to get out of these sweatpants to go out tonight is gonna be a difficult thing.
Unknown
I know. Put something tight on.
E
Yeah. But I like themes, though. Like, I was excited to get the.
Tamara Judge
Castle looked like it was Halloween the whole time.
E
That's fun.
Unknown
Like, that's what they. They want us. They. In fact, the stylist there told me, she's like, oh, my God, I'm so glad that you have all these outfits. Like, I love when people actually dress the part.
E
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown
You can't just be wearing your aloe.
Tamara Judge
No. Who dresses? Know who dresses the part?
Unknown
Tom Sandoval. Dylan. Who?
Tamara Judge
Dylan.
E
Dylan. Oh, you love Dylan. Look at your face.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God.
E
Oh, my.
Unknown
Well, obviously you're watching this season of Traitors, right?
E
Yes, I am.
Unknown
What is your take?
Tamara Judge
Who's your favorite? You like Gabby?
E
My husband always makes fun of her, but she's okay. She doesn't bother me that much. She's just kind of like there and head in the clouds. But I like, just on a personal level, I love Chrishell. I think she's adorable. But there are some people that are not. I just think she's adorable.
Unknown
She's hot.
Tamara Judge
Other than being hot, what is she?
E
I don't think she's a good game.
Unknown
Player, but no, she took her hand out of that box so quick.
Tamara Judge
Tamara ripped her hand out that quick from that box. And there was $24,000 on the line for it. I would actually have taken a fudgeing knife and cropped like, you're so good on traders. No, like, you're dead to me. Suck it up.
E
No, they need to put you on and.
Tamara Judge
But why would she pull out so quickly? Like, I showed Tamara. Like, it's one thing to, like, say, like, I'm going to pull out.
E
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
But like, she did a rip.
E
She did not want to be touched by Dolores.
Unknown
Did not like that.
E
No, she was pissed. You know what?
Tamara Judge
I would have been. I'm pissed. And I wasn't even on it.
E
Yeah, I'd have been mad. I mean, like, that's whenever all, you know, all the girls quit in the cabin thing. Whenever we're all, like, in the crap. Like. Yeah, in the tunnels with bugs all over us and rats and all that other crap. But yeah, it's kind of annoying.
Unknown
But what's the worst thing you've done on reality tv? Like, the most, like, eerie, gross.
E
Okay, I'll tell you, I. One fear factor with the Miz. Hold on.
Tamara Judge
You did Fear Factor.
E
Miz and I were a team and we won. But we. I went into a thing underwater, which is a big fear of mine, is like being held underwater. It was a tunnel and only half of it was, like, not filled with water. So I went in there, but there was an alligator in it.
Tamara Judge
A real life alligator.
E
Yes. But here's the.
Unknown
Alligators will eat you.
E
I know, but it was like a narrow tunnel. And I think that they didn't think that he could turn his head around, and his head was facing the opposite way, and I had his tail, and I was supposed to go up to his tail, grab a skull. Skull and get out of the tunnel, back out of it. Somehow his head got twisted around. And I hear everyone, like, above the tunnel screaming for me to get out because they were like, she could.
Unknown
They put you in danger?
E
They put me in danger. So Miss had to, like, fetch me out of the thing so quickly.
Tamara Judge
What's Miss's real name?
E
Mike Mazanon. It's so stupid. I don't know. Whenever we dated, I was just like, mike.
Unknown
Now, is there a part of you that misses real competition shows?
E
Yes, but. Okay, I. I always get asked to do the challenges, so I do get asked to do shows like that. But I would like to do something like Big Brother or no Deal. Or no Deal Island. I could do that. I would kill that.
Unknown
Have you done Big Brother before?
E
No. Wait, why didn't you like it?
Tamara Judge
Okay, so not only do you not have any communication with other human beings?
E
Oh, I like that, though.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Like that.
Unknown
I hate it.
Tamara Judge
I mean, day three, Lamar Odom was, like, asking me to clip his toenails.
E
Oh, no.
Unknown
And he pooped his bed.
Tamara Judge
Andy pooped it. Andy pooped his bed.
Unknown
Did you slept in the same room as him?
Tamara Judge
I slept in a hallway with Lamar and one other guy. That's because we were the last to arrive.
Unknown
Better rooms.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God. No, it was.
Unknown
It was during COVID too.
Tamara Judge
It made housewives seem like a walk in the park.
E
No. How long were you there?
Tamara Judge
I was the first to get kicked off because I didn't follow information. Like, they were like, teddy, whatever you do don't do well in the first competition.
E
Right? Yeah. And then because they don't. You don't want to be a target.
Tamara Judge
And then I did.
Unknown
You can't.
Tamara Judge
And then I couldn't help myself.
E
I held on because you're too competitive. You don't want to.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. So then I came in second place behind the WWF chick, and then they were like, now you need to kiss her ass. And I was like, well, that's not gonna happen.
Unknown
So Big Brother is the one that you'd want to do.
E
I would love to do Big Brother.
Tamara Judge
I can get you on. I think I can't do a lot of things, so I think you get on Big Brother.
E
I love to do it, and I always said I want to do it, and I would be completely fine not, like, giving my phone away and being done with it. Because on Traders used to it. Yeah. On Traders. Remember, we only got, like. You might have got more time than I did. I only got, like, 10 minutes a week to talk to John.
Unknown
I. Because I was sick in my room for a while, they gave me a burner phone that I could call my husband.
E
That's nice.
Unknown
And, you know, give him an update of what was going on. And then when I got my phone back, because he knew I was so sick, like, when I was calling him, I was like, oh, right. Scary. And. And then it was just radio silence. So he was. When I got my phone back, like, are you okay? Do I send. Need to send the cops? Like, what is going on? Like, somebody update me.
Tamara Judge
I never got one minute of communication with the outside world.
E
Yeah, but, like, for Traders, I was fine with 10 minutes a week. I didn't. I didn't even really need it. So, like, I think I could do a Big Brother and last and be fine.
Unknown
But would you do the show?
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Would you do Housewives?
E
Well, okay, I'm going to say that I'm in talks with a production company, and I don't know if it's for Housewives or not, because I don't know that they're actually looking to add another city.
Unknown
I hear they are, but.
E
But it's a very, very reputable production company. And I don't know, it's kind of housewife based.
Tamara Judge
Is it?
E
They want to film it in New Orleans with, like, a bunch of fun girls. Girls and some guys, too, I think.
Tamara Judge
I mean, what other girls would you pick?
Unknown
Kind of like a Southern charm, maybe? That would be really cool.
E
I think that they should bring Southern charm back to New Orleans. I would absolutely do it because, like, I think that this is a good city to showcase all that, because New Orleans is a character in the city. It really is a character.
Tamara Judge
Do you watch South Charm? Do you watch?
E
I do.
Tamara Judge
I.
E
Well, I watch Southern char. I don't watch all of them. Like, I don't watch Housewives of New York. Y'all were talking about, like, what UBA earlier. Yeah, I don't watch New York. I can't, y'all. I just like the OGs. I just. I don't know. And I'm very pissy. Like, when. When someone tries to tell me to watch something, I'm like, no. Like, I. Absolutely. It makes me not want to watch it.
Tamara Judge
Right.
E
So. But I watch, obviously, O.C. beverly Hills, Salt Lake.
Tamara Judge
So who are your favorite Potomac on those?
E
Well, obviously, Tamron. I just love.
Tamara Judge
We love Bias on this. I know.
E
I just love her. Beverly Hills. I love bows. I think she is, like, a really good addition. It's crazy because I normally do not like new people coming in after I've watched the same people, but I feel like Bronwyn also is having a good.
Unknown
Award is the best newbie.
E
She kills it.
Unknown
And she was meant for it.
E
She's so. And she's smart, vulnerable, and it's like, she's so.
Tamara Judge
She's funny.
Unknown
Between that and the fashion and her being outspoken and the husband, like, she has it all.
E
She's so good. Like, so good. Thank you, Dahl. Yeah, no, she's awesome. I. She's actually one of my favorites, like, across the board.
Tamara Judge
What's your favorite show? Hands down for you to watch anything. And I don't know this about you either, Tam. And don't say, this is us, because I'll cut you because.
E
Oh. Oh, this is us.
Unknown
I love that, but I'm over it. I'm over it now. Mine's Yellowstone.
E
Okay.
Tamara Judge
I love Landman.
E
Okay. I heard Landman's so good.
Unknown
So good.
Tamara Judge
So good.
E
Yeah. Okay. I like right now. I like Dexter. I like Dexter.
Tamara Judge
Murder stuck in 1996, but they have.
E
A new one out. Yes. It's like whenever he was, like, younger. Yeah. So whenever he was younger, like, him growing up. So I kind of like that. I like all murder shows. Like, I listen to murder podcasts. Like, I mean, everything I love.
Tamara Judge
Nothing relaxes me more than a Law and Order svo.
E
Wait, do you listen to the podcast Betrayal?
Tamara Judge
Yeah.
E
It's so good, Tamra. Hey, if you're ever angry, you're. Oh, it's so good. It's just like. And they always like it all back.
Tamara Judge
It makes you wonder, like, are we really this big of idiots?
E
No, people are just fucking terrible. Like, I don't know. It's just like. That's the lesson. People are terrible. You have to watch your back, keep your head on a swivel. I don't know, it's. Maybe people are idiots, too, though.
Tamara Judge
But, yeah, I'm definitely an idiot.
E
I was fooled before, many a times. I feel like we still never got to talk about the traders.
Unknown
Yeah, let's talk about the traders.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, I know we're on to the traders right now.
Unknown
Traders. We just recapped it and Rob.
E
Okay.
Unknown
Vanished.
Tamara Judge
I have thoughts.
Unknown
So who do you think they're going to bring in another trader?
E
I think they're going to bring another traitor.
Tamara Judge
Who?
E
Dolores first? Well, at first I thought Dylan, but then I'm thinking now Brittany, because I feel like Danielle Wants to bring someone in whose name's already been out there that she can throw under the bus so she stays a little bit longer. But I'm telling you what.
Tamara Judge
You know Danielle before?
E
No, I just knew her from Big Brother and she was. I just remember her being like.
Unknown
She's a mess.
E
Unlikable.
Tamara Judge
She's punchable.
E
Yeah, she's a character, though.
Unknown
She. She makes for good tv.
E
She's good television. Yeah, very good television. And also she, like came and runner up, I think, on Big Brother, so she was like a good player. But, like, you know how some of these gamers like Parvati and Dan, it doesn't translate all the time to traders.
Unknown
That's what I was going to ask you. Do you think that gamers have an advantage?
E
Okay.
Unknown
In traders?
E
I think that CT and I did because we were comfortable at the round tables. Because whenever we're on the MTV challenges, you are telling people face to face your votes. But on Big Brother, they do it in diary room. On Survivor, they write it down on a piece of paper. So, like, they're all, you know, behind people's backs and doing it in secret. But on the challenges, they're like, I don't like you, like, to your face. And so that's kind of how the roundtable is.
Tamara Judge
What celebrity reality person do you think dislikes you the most?
E
Dislikes me?
Tamara Judge
Mm.
E
Peppermint.
Unknown
Oh, peppermint. Obviously you got a lot of shit for that. I remember we were on the phone, people were really targeting her.
E
Devastating.
Unknown
She's like, is this what reality TV's about now? I go, yeah, it's about destroying you. On social media.
E
It had been a minute and my husband was. I was crying and it had like, just. It was a lot. And he was like, text Tamara because, like, you know that she has to get a lot of shit from housewives. And I was like, is this normal? She's like, oh, yeah.
Unknown
Oh, yeah, yeah. I was in big.
Tamara Judge
I forgot about the peppermint of it all. That was a matter of fact.
E
Yeah, yeah, that's how it is now.
Unknown
It is how it is. I'm like, just don't talk about it. Don't try to redeem yourself. Just.
E
I was horrible. Well, actually, yeah, I did try to redeem myself, but, you know, it was just like a lot. I tried to apologize. She would not speak to me. It was. It was bad.
Unknown
She was super bitter.
E
She did not speak to me. I mean, I even wrote her not too long ago for New Year's, I wrote her and I was Just like, happy New Year's. Just like, hoping that you're doing well.
Tamara Judge
She didn't respond.
Unknown
Wow. She's holding a grudge.
E
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
I love a grudge holder.
E
That's.
Unknown
Oh, yeah, that sucks.
E
But she definitely does not like me. I don't know.
Unknown
Who do you think could win this?
E
Okay, so I don't think the Traders are going to win, and if they do, it's going to be Carolyn, because.
Tamara Judge
Yeah.
E
What do y'all think about her? I think that she has not.
Unknown
She's, like, a quirky girl, and she's consistent.
E
She's consistent. That's what I said. Okay. By the way, Robyn Dixon, y'all, I feel like after seeing her on Traders, I want to see her back on television.
Unknown
Oh, that's what I said.
E
I thought she was funny without trying to be.
Unknown
Do you watch Potomac?
E
I do.
Unknown
What do you think about this season so far?
E
I think it's okay, Wendy. I don't know. Mia is all over the place. I feel like she's just doing too much.
Tamara Judge
She's just.
Unknown
It's almost not entertaining.
E
I feel bad for those kids.
Tamara Judge
I think the problem with Robin, which is actually what I like about Robin, as a regular human being, we asked Robin, we're like, why didn't you share? Like, you shared stuff on your Patreon? You shared stuff here, but you didn't. Like, you got yourself. Essentially, you got yourself booted.
E
Right.
Tamara Judge
And she was like, till the end of time, I will always protect my family.
Unknown
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
How can you hate on that?
E
I love that.
Tamara Judge
You can't hate on it. Like, I was like, oh. Oh, you're a good human being.
E
Yeah.
Unknown
Yeah. But all these shows, like Ultimate Girls Trip Traders, they revitalize, like, careers like housewives that are no longer on the show. And I think that she will be back.
Tamara Judge
I think that she'll be back, but I don't think she's ever going to give more than she's.
Unknown
She might sometimes.
Tamara Judge
I don't think she's ever gonna.
Unknown
And she's not dying to get back on.
Tamara Judge
No, she doesn't care.
Unknown
She doesn't care.
E
You know what it is? It's just because she did it on the Patreon, everything because she was controlling the narrative, and whenever you are at the mercy of somebody else, like, she was afraid what they would do with that. But yeah. And probably Juan was like, no.
Tamara Judge
Okay, guys, thanks for tuning in for another episode of two T's in a podcast, the Twat Seat. We've loved having Trishell here and not.
Unknown
To be confused with Chrishell.
Tamara Judge
Not well, because.
E
No, we're three T's now.
Unknown
Yeah, three tri T's in a bug. Tri tip, tri tip, tri tip.
Tamara Judge
Can you fill in for me when I can't do it?
E
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
I need you to watch all of the shows, though, and be ready at all times.
Unknown
Sounds like she does.
E
Even New York.
Unknown
Except for New York.
E
All right, I'll watch it.
Tamara Judge
Did you just go even New York?
Unknown
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
All right, thanks, guys. Bye.
