Everybody's doing it, guys. Hi, Ben. How are you?

I'm feeling very patriotic today. How are you doing?
Ronnie Karam
Good. I'm feeling, you know, I'm sitting in my car enjoying my day.
Ben Mandelker
That's patriotic.
Ronnie Karam
People sawing stuff. America very lowly. My meal.
Ben Mandelker
Proud to be an American because at least I know I'm lying.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. So everybody hope you're out there doing it, you know. Hugs from American to American. No matter what side of the aisle you're on. Just kidding. Please be on the right side of the aisle. So the correct side, I should say. People could misinterpret that. I'm just kidding, guys. We love you no matter what. Guess what our politics are. Bravo. I vote for Bravo for president. Okay. Bravo didn't charge me property taxes. I love them.
Ben Mandelker
Well, I know it's a scary day for a lot of people in America for. For a large amount of people. Which is why we have the privilege of going to Ibiza today for below deck sailing. Yeah, Dodge.
Ronnie Karam
A town, you know, when gay rights might be in question. There's a whole place that celebrates the gay accent. I bet. We love you.
Ben Mandelker
Come for the stay for the Kentucky fried Chicken. That's what we learned on this episode.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. Oh, God. You know, a lot of people are like, why was Gary acting disgusting Being cut out of this season? This is so unfair. Gary has probably been disgusting this whole time. And they're just cutting it out to save Bravo's soul and to save Bravo's Internet reputation or whatever. Well, guess what? Today we got to see Gary eat a bucket of chicken. And I can assure you Bravo is not cutting out Gary being disgusting. If I wasn't vegetarian already, I would be after this. That was disgusting.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, it. It really, really was. I Have to say, like. Like Gary eating Kentucky Fried Chicken. That is like the most blah, blah, blah thing that the chief blah, blah, blah, blah, could do.
Ronnie Karam
It was disgusting. That's literally how he eats. He eats like he talks. Disgusting. Also, I shouldn't say vegetarian. I should say pescetarian. For all the Finding Nemo fans out there who want to stand up for fish. Okay, get off my jock. So here we are. Oh, gosh. Ben just asked me in the video. Is this public?
Ben Mandelker
It is. Hello. Hello to the five people watching us.
Ronnie Karam
Well, that's fun. Hi, everybody. Sorry we made this public on accident, but guess what? It's. It's our. It's our mistake to you on election day. Okay?
Ben Mandelker
You know it is. And that's why Ann Claire says, oh, my God. A live for Blow Tech. It's an accident. Live. But you know what, though? Who cares? We've done live shows before.
Ronnie Karam
You know what? We only have to edit these probably every day now because we say something that we were. Now that we have the ability to edit these, we're like, you know what? We should probably edit out about 1 minute and 30 seconds into this podcast, but we're not going to. Why? It's special. Special day. Okay, let's get into it. This is actually a very depressing day of below deck sailing because Emma's just so depressed. And she's depressed because she's kind of, you know, left out of the group, but she's kind of left out of the group because she's a weirdo. I'm like, what are you gonna do? Tell somebody to be less of a weirdo? You know, I don't think you're allowed to do that.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, yeah. No, you can't. Well, you know what? She also has to carry with her the burden of never making it in real estate. Holding up the martini. Yeah. Yeah, she is a weirdo. She's not quite fitting in. But the other thing that she is is also not very good at her job. And that's also been a problem, and it sucks.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, sorry.
Ben Mandelker
Go ahead. Sorry. I was gonna say, you know, it sucks when you're, like, not good at your job. And then your boss, you just know your boss is a creep. But you know, your boss is like, right? And you're like, ugh. Like, I hate that. I hate that. Gary is like, it's like, I'm messing up for this low life, you know, like, that does like. I don't want to be in a position where, like, Gary has to be the one to teach me how to do things. I want him. I just want him out of my space.
Ronnie Karam
Right. You just want to be. You want to be better than Gary, right? I mean, morals wise, she probably is. So that's something. But also on this show, we love when people are bad at their jobs. It's fun to watch and it's fun to, like, hate them and be like, you suck at your job. I can't wait till you never work again. I'm going to go write you a review on RestaurantWorkers.com or whatever you write reviews, ServiceWorkers.com. but not this one, because you can't even judge her job because she's just not even trying. I think she's just a person. It's like she's not making any attempts at anything. And then she. She's like, I'm losing the race. You're not walking. You're not running. You're like, literally, like, what are you crying about? You're not doing anything, you know, So I don't know, It's. It's hard. But then I'm like, but she's depressed, but, you know, I don't know. You still have to pay your bills. You know what I mean? Yeah, she lamp on this.
Ben Mandelker
She. I think she does like to be emo. Like, nothing really works out for me. I'm just crazy Aunt Emma, alone on the sea, messing up her life yet again compared to my sister. So the last.
Ronnie Karam
Another. Another charm on my sister's sister's fail charm bracelet. She's got a charm for every time I failed. Really? High school, the GED lessons, driving class, literally everything up until now. Real estate still on there. Although I could go back to real estate. But she did buy my bench and put her picture all over it.
Ben Mandelker
I could go back to real estate. I just have to find a martini glass before I do it.
Ronnie Karam
It's kind of odd to know that my sister is beating me so much at life and she's currently sitting on my face on a park bench.
Ben Mandelker
Emma's sister just shows up and just like, shammy something better. They're like, that's the way you do it. Blah, blah, blah. Whoever you are. It's like, oh, there she is again. Better than me at everything.
Ronnie Karam
Clink. Well, there's a lot of charms on your bracelet. Just got another one. Thank you.
Ben Mandelker
So we pick up, we're at the club and Emma is having, like, a small meltdown, a drunken meltdown, because she had been questioning the two other girls in the car and they were like, oh, my God. And then the girls had told Daisy. And then Daisy went up to. Emma was like, what did you say to the girls? They're petrified of you. Which they were not. But Daisy exacerbated it. And I was like, petrified. I don't even know what I did. You know what? From here on out, I will not say anything. Anything at all. You know, Then her sister shows up and it's like, hi, girls. You want to be best friends? Like, yes, we love you, Emma's sister.
Ronnie Karam
You can get involved in our business whenever you want. Also, Emma wasn't even really caring. I don't think about. Because she was giving. Danny. Danny, right. The one who's from Brazil. She was giving.
Ben Mandelker
No, no, Diana.
Ronnie Karam
She was like, so, Diana, you guys are into each other, right? You and that guy. And I can totally tell you're into each other. You guys totally have chemistry. She wasn't even really caring about that. She was just trying to say, no one likes me. I'm all alone. Poor me. You know, I didn't go to boarding school, but I felt like that's where I was because I was always sent to. I was always sent to a classroom to sleep while everyone else was studying. The poor, sleepy Emma never gets anything right, you know? She's so sad. But, yeah, I forgot what I was saying. I'm starting at a palm.
Ben Mandelker
I didn't, you know, my sister go to boarding school and had the entire world opened up for her. And then my parents sent me to boarding school, but my boarding school was literally someplace where to go and actually cut out boards out of wood. It's not very sad, they called it.
Ronnie Karam
Every time someone was assigned a class with me, they started calling it boring school. So I guess I was close. I was already there. Just saved my parents the. What do you call it? The tuition.
Ben Mandelker
Tuition I got. I can't even make my. Can't even tell my stories properly anymore.
Ronnie Karam
I really can't.
Ben Mandelker
Her sister's like, I can tell the story. She took away all mommy and puppy's money. Huh? Stupid sister. Another charm bracelet. Better storyteller.
Ronnie Karam
So then she, you know, Daisy starting for no reason. Like, Daisy, get. Get a life. Like. I mean, I know that's just such a pat thing to say, but seriously, what are you even doing? I'm so glad my girls are getting along. Why are you getting along? To hate you. They think you're a weirdo. Hunt back. So she's. She gets really upset, and then she's like, I feel really insecure right now. I've Already come off our charter. Where I felt like I was doing nothing.
Ben Mandelker
Right?
Ronnie Karam
I mean, you weren't doing anything. It wasn't just a feeling.
Ben Mandelker
Remember when the boat was banging against the boat? Yeah, that was you. Anyway, go on, Ronnie.
Ronnie Karam
Like. And I also don't really know where I belong in this group. Well, now, I would suggest stew school, but we see how well they train people to make drinks and so, yeah, wouldn't even bother with that. You know, make an effort.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, exactly. So then Diana's like, why are we mad? And then goes, let's go, blah, blah, blah, let's get a bucket of chicken. And Keith is like, I want a bucket. It's like, oh, yes, Blah, blah, blah. Okay, I'll have the one with all the seasonings. And Keith will have the bland one to match his personality.
Ronnie Karam
So, like, Gary, why are you licking the other person's bucket of fried chicken? His only fun one is not consent, really, isn't it? So then Keith is. They're talking about girls and stuff, and Dian and the girls are talking about the boys. The boys talking about the girls. So Diana's like, what is happening with Keith? And she's like, I'm all for flirting, I'm all for vibes, but like, I'll never make the first move. You'll never make the first move? You just hit on the Kentucky Fried Chicken guy and he's a picture on a sign.
Ben Mandelker
You talking about, I've always liked an older man. So then. And then Keith is like, Danny's cool as, but like, I'm not listening because this chicken is so good. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Ronnie Karam
So they go back to the yacht and discussion on the hot tub begins. And Daisy's like, I'm going to bed. So then Davido's like, hello, it's Captain St. I think I'm going to the Jacuzzi for a bit. You call me Jacuzzi? Is anybody going to the Jacuzzi? Captain. Captain, you are going to the Jacuzzi. Now you can blow dry my hair. Come, come, Captain. He's like, no, thanks.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, 100% not. So then. Then there are. Some of them are going up there. And so Danny and Keith are sort of snuggling up. And Danny's like, like, Keith, you want to set up those sun lounges and everything? So they're getting cozy and everything. And she's like, you're going to be. And he's like, well, the truth is I shy away when people come in really hot. She goes, yeah, but I come in hot all the time. It's like, yeah, it's my way of saying, could you please get off of me right now? Thanks so much.
Ronnie Karam
He's like, you do come in really hot. But I think we've got very good chemistry. We go together like Dockers and white men. Not that well, actually. Can't really think of anything but Dockers. I'd love to put on a pair right now. God, I love doctors. She's like, please are killing me here. I'm just trying to.
Ben Mandelker
Could you just try to flirt with something more exciting than Dockers? So she says, I've definitely dated a lot of boys, and I have an ex boyfriend that was dating my best friend, and now they live together, so now I don't speak to either of them. And it's just. So maybe I just need, like a super fuzzy, like, wholesome, you know, like. But by the time Keith susses this out, I'll probably be an old age home in a wheelchair being the hottest one in the.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, so you're doing the old, like, I dated one douchebag, so I'm gonna try and date a boring person because they'll treat me better. But you're suffering from the same issue with both men. Disinterest. Okay? Go find someone who's interested in you and stop just attacking everybody who passes by, okay? People need to feel special. Like, this girl's just handing out flyers. Comedy show, comedy show, comedy show, comedy show, comedy shows.
Ben Mandelker
Like, at the front of Republic. She's like, grace. She's like, what's her face? Grace, Grace, Grace. Lily being like, come on in, come on in. Come on into Republic. Come into.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. And she's the girl that walks past the comedy person and then is like, oh, my God, they totally asked me to a show tonight. We're in love. We're totally in love.
Ben Mandelker
So then we get a really wonderful scene where Davide is buck naked and he's trying to get into his upper bunk, but he's wasted and he can't get into it any. Like, he sort of, like, stands. He hoists himself up the butt crack. The pixelation is wider than you can imagine. And then he's up there and he falls off onto Captain Glenn naked.
Ronnie Karam
He bends over, full cornhole spread into the camera, which was a lot. And then, yeah, he just falls right on top of Captain Glenn. Glenn's just like, you okay there? I did it. I did it. I'm okay.
Ben Mandelker
And he keeps going, nearly, nearly, nearly. Like, he's like, nearly on the Bed.
Ronnie Karam
And then in the morning, Glenn's like, yeah, I remember. I think you stepped on me last night. He's like, oh, it's not my fault. It is the fault of whoever designed this bed. Also, why are potholes the way they are? You feel the. You feel the air on that thing. At three in the morning, there's nothing you can do but fall.
Ben Mandelker
That was not the music. I was trying to think of the Mario music when Mario falls into a pit. Mario. Not Mario. Oh, my God. Mario. So now it's time for a preference sheet meeting. So Glenn's like, okay, everyone, this is a quick overnight one. We've got Tiffany and Daniel, married couple from Dallas, and she's a real housewife. And it's Dr. Tiffany Moon, who we love. Made me instantly. Oh, nostalgic for Dallas. I think I'm ready for Dallas to come back. I would like Bravo to bring Dallas back with Tiffany Moon.
Ronnie Karam
What a lovely energy of being fun but not trying too hard. And kind of pain to be on TV but not coming off as desperate.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah.
Ronnie Karam
Was interesting to see from a Bravo person.
Ben Mandelker
It was because she's so wealthy. She's like, she's fine and she's like wealthy, but she's also like, she has like a major job. So, like, she really is just like happy. And her husband's like, well, I don't really want to go on this random one night yacht thing, but it'll make Tiffany happy, so I'll just go along for it. Why not? Like, that's.
Ronnie Karam
Well, I like this. She only did one night too, because she's like, yeah, I don't need to do that.
Ben Mandelker
We're gonna spend one night on the Diagonal yacht and then we'll spend the rest of it on a motor yacht.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, I can only poop sideways for one night.
Ben Mandelker
Can I say something? This is tangential, but related to blow decks. As long as I'm talking about people outside the Blow Deck franchise and Blow Deck. I got so excited the other night because one of my favorite cookbook authors and food writers is Carla Lolly. Music. I think I may have mentioned her before, and I was watching one of her cooking videos and it was like, from two months ago. And she was like, cooking. She was like, chopping Rosemary. And she goes, you know, a little Rosemary goes a long way. Like for instance, on Below Deck last night, the chef, he just put way too much rosemary into the dinner and he served it to Gigi Fernandez, and she was not happy. I don't think the chef is going to work Out. And I was like, oh, my God, I love that Carla Laho music. It's obsessive. It made me so happy that she gave, like, a mini recap about, like, Chef Jono and his terrible cooking for Gigi Fernandez. And I can only. I'm only hoping that she's continuing to watch with blowjack sailing.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, I love that. I love that. Johnna just keeps getting dragged no matter what. You know, it's like, you know what? I'm so finally to be away from all. Glad to be away from all of that drama was, like, really getting to me. You know, it's hard to be an architect chef and watch some cooking videos. Like, one of the most positive people on Instagram just dragging his ass across.
Ben Mandelker
I know. He's like, I'm. You know, I'm going to work on my craft. At least this is a safe space. Watching Carla Lala music from Bon Appetit. And she's like, jono, what a piece of. Am I right? Okay, anyway, put the chicken cutlet in the pan.
Ronnie Karam
I love the idea of cooking shows always having to be positive. Where's the negative cooking show? I want that. I'm going to do a cooking show where it's just like, hey, everybody, today we're gonna make popovers. You're gonna need flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and salt. Okay. My next door neighbor, by the way. Seriously, what an. I mean, have your dog sit in your own yard, sir. All right, let's sip that flower.
Ben Mandelker
Carla sort of heads to that place, and she's also, I think, in the process of divorcing. So I think some, like, bitter notes are coming through, which I love. I'm with you. I'm like, why not? Why not have someone that's like this, you know?
Ronnie Karam
Oh, I just assumed she was really positive. I don't really watch her, but I assume she was positive because she. Her name is Carla Lolly. Music.
Ben Mandelker
I know it seems like. Well, she is generally positive. She's also really smart and helpful, but, like, she sort of. Her vibe is kind of like, well, I mean, this is just like, how I do it. You can do it the way you want to do it, but, like, it's. That's. You don't have to do it that way because it's stupid, and I'll just show you how to do it the right way instead. And I'm like, yes, Carla.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, I'm definitely waiting for a chef to be like, okay, this is my recipe. You're going to want to make some changes. And you know what? You should do that. Here's what you shouldn't do. Come on and give me two stars for a recipe that you changed and then complain that the recipe isn't correct. You okay? If you're gonna make my recipe and review my recipe, do it the way I said it or don't make it stop. Watching my Instagram channel.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, she's not at that place, but she. I mean, she's very encouraging because she'll be like, you know what? You can use like cauliflower, but you can also use broccoli. Whatever. She's one of those people that's like, you could just use this or this or this or that, which is nice. But then at the same time, she's like, you know, everyone says you gotta cut it like that. And honestly, they're stupid. You just cut it like this. And I'm like, I just. She's speaking my language right now, you know, and she watches below deck. It's perfect.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, there you go. Love her. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crapons commercial.

Let's just say that then she divorced her husband and became a lesbian. So, Bronwyn, you got your path to Bravo was Bron. I mean, there's always some odd path, right, that they take to get to Bravo. Like we just found out that somebody else has been on say yes to the Dress. That show. Say yes to the Dress. A million people.
Ben Mandelker
It was Carla Lolly. Music.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, it was Katie from oc. Real Housewives of oc.
Ben Mandelker
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Ronnie Karam
And you know, I like Katie, but that is definitely the sign of a thirsty person just doing their best to get onto tv, which I guess is the thing now to reality tv. Like, let's stop thinking it's so real. So anyway, yeah, his path was Bronwyn. I wonder how long they've been trying to get him on.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, I don't know. But we also know that he like, he had to cook a big meal that night because she has like 16 children.
Ronnie Karam
Well, she's not crazy. Barely around them all the time, so who knows?
Ben Mandelker
Well, this is before this is true. But.
Ronnie Karam
But it's while he was married. She was married. Yeah, well, she still wasn't really rabbit, let's face it. But yeah, back then. And it also makes sense that she's like, you know what? I want a 17 year old as a chef. Yeah, that sounds great.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah, that's. He was 17. She probably found him at that fashion show in the ferry that she was. That she went to. Great episode, by the way. The fashion show on the ferry with that lady where. Why can't we get that lady back? That lady was a one hit wonder. She was wonderful.
Ronnie Karam
They should have cast her. Okay, so Glenn's like really traveling the world with their friends on five star vacations. They're hoping this trip will surpass all the ones they've been on before. Well, they're gonna have high standards. They've been all over the place. Surely they'll love this broken down tilting boat with leaks that can't have a cabinet that closes. It's gonna be great.
Ben Mandelker
Oh, the guests would like professional photographer to capture endless memories before they sit for dinner. That for dinner, the guests require a Japanese style dinner. You know, that's what I would like. I'm like, you know what, let's go to Ibiza and have a Japanese meal on a boat. Yeah, Well, I guess maybe they probably have been in Spain for a few days, so maybe they're like, okay, we need to switch up. So Chloe's is like, yeah, I can do that. And Glenn's like, we need to pull out all the stops. That means no swimming. There's charter cloys.
Ronnie Karam
He's like, okay, so now it's time to turn the boat over. And Daisy's like, tia, Walter, talk about the chart. And he's like, okay. She's talking to Cloyce and she's like, well, I think service went really well and, you know, apart from the cake debacle. So I want you to take this opportunity to be able to show off your skills because I think you could have talent if you really worked on it. When do, when do chief Stews talk to chefs like this? That's so weird.
Ben Mandelker
I know. That's so Daisy to do that, you know.
Ronnie Karam
He doesn't work for you.
Ben Mandelker
He doesn't. And he, I was surprised he didn't like, snap back, but he was like, awesome. That should be pretty good.
Ronnie Karam
That's hot.
Ben Mandelker
But he can't. He can't because, well, he was just like frolicking, frolicking around like an 8 year old in the waves the other day. So he's gonna get treated like a little boy and that's what happens.
Ronnie Karam
And then like, well, we just need you to do a better. We're in this together. And he's like, okay. But also, Daisy's someone you just don't argue with. She's like a tax bill. Like, what are you going to do? It's not going to go away. They're not going to change their mind. Is still going to be there tomorrow. Yeah.
Ben Mandelker
So Gary, then Emma's like rolling up towels in like one of the areas. And Gary walks up to her, he's like, oh, what's going on? Rolling towels I don't. I don't want you to worry about that. Let's get this boat washed. That shit can be done. She's like, the one thing I'm good at, rolling towels. I can't even do it. If my sister were here, you would see her sloppy, sloppy rolls. This would be my moment. Of course, you take that away from me.
Ronnie Karam
I've just loved rolling towels ever since I learned how to throw them in. So she's literally quit every job she's ever had. So Gary's like, all right, well, here's what we need to do. You need to watch the cockpit. I'm sorry, Captain. Understand what you're saying. Could you take the chicken out of your mouth? She is so good. So good.
Ben Mandelker
So then she just sort of like. Like, walks away. And he's like, oh, she's dove. She goes, oh, sorry. I thought you were finished talking. I mean, to be fair, I didn't even see you because you had so much grease on you. You'd become transparent.
Ronnie Karam
And he's like, we do gotta deal with the gender. We should go deal with that. And he's telling us. I'm slowly starting to realize the infant's work ethic isn't there. It's episode five, babe.
Ben Mandelker
What part of her smoking a cigarette and looking at the horizon while the tender bangs into the boat says, she doesn't have a good work ethic? But there's no motivation there, no drive moving forward. I guess if I can't lead by example, maybe if she's. I guess I can lead by example. So maybe if she sees me working hard, she's going to be like, okay, if my boss is working hard, then I should be working hard. Cut to Emma just eating a bucket of fried chicken. She's like, do really respond well.
Ronnie Karam
She starts grabbing the ass of all the camera. He's like, wait a minute. You're following the wrong example. But, yeah, I don't think that whole, like, lead by example thing works because I live in Los Angeles where people lift weights all day and walk around with tight little butts, and I sure don't do it. It doesn't. Trust me, it doesn't rub off.
Ben Mandelker
I think that what Emma needs is Gary to say, look, I know it's a lot. I'm coming down on you, but it's all because I know you can do it. And, like, I think you're doing a great job. I think she's someone who needs positive re encouragement, because when she doesn't get it, she starts to spiral so he just needs to give some of that instead of, like, you know what? Next time, instead of rolling towels, could you be shammying the chrome thingy? You know? And then she's like, yeah, do anything. Right?
Ronnie Karam
But it's also just a difference in generations, you know what I mean? Because he is so much older where it's like, you didn't have that when he was young. Like, when he was learning, There wasn't there. There wasn't like, a whole, like, how do you feel. How do you feel about how you're being taught today? Is there something I could do better in the way that I'm teaching you? You know, he didn't have that kind of sensitivity, so he was just like, you do the job, and then they tell you to do the job, and you do it. Where she's like, you're not inspiring me to learn.
Ben Mandelker
But he's like, 37 and she's 34. She's my God.
Ronnie Karam
Really?
Ben Mandelker
Yeah.
Ronnie Karam
Gary, maybe the sun damages made him tougher. I don't know. But good Lord, man. Stay out of the sun, people. Whatever you do, stay out of the. Good God. What did he make out with this? He probably tried to go up there and. Harris, the sign.
Ben Mandelker
I'm looking like a paper bag that's.
Ronnie Karam
Been wrapped around a bottle of.
Ben Mandelker
No, he's 34. They're the same age. He's 34.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, my God. Moisturize, Drink your water, take naps, and stay out of. That's all.
Ben Mandelker
Save that. Save that chicken grease and use it to. To moisturize. Okay?
Ronnie Karam
So Danny Daisy tells fried chicken to stem cells there. Here's your advice for the day. He needs some.
Ben Mandelker
Instead of Kentucky Fried Chicken, how about La Roche Posay?
Ronnie Karam
So then people call you degenerate, but you're literally degenerating right in front of our. It's like, please get some cells back. Okay?
Ben Mandelker
By the way, isn't La Roche Posay like, the funniest name for a product?
Ronnie Karam
Isn't that a chocolate and it's a cheese?
Ben Mandelker
No, La Roche Posay is like a. I think it's like a soap. One of the 20 people who are watching, please chime in. Wait, hold on. La Roche Posay. I think. I just think it's such a La Roche Posay. It just sounds so funny because it's like a. It's like a regular. It's like a standard, you know, it's like I went into. I went into Ulta, like, a year ago. I was like, I need. Yeah. Someone. Ann says it's a skincare brand. I went into Ulta and I was like, I need. I want a soap for my face. And they're like, well, there's La Roche posay. That's like $10. Or there's this one that's 26 origins. So, like, la Roche Posay is just like a. It's just like a run of the mill, but it just sounds so fancy and. But also like, cheesy fancy. Like, it doesn't sound like real fancy, like La Roche Posay. Like, it's. I just think it's hilarious. I'm amusing myself with the Roche posay right now.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, well, I'd love that for you.
Ben Mandelker
Because people are actually listening to me to have this discussion myself about La Roche Posay.
Ronnie Karam
Okay, so let's see. So now we go to Daisy and Danny, because Daisy is telling the girls that Danny's going to be on late. And she's like, I don't want to be a dick, but if these guests turn out to be demanding, it's better for the tip, I would say keeping. Keeping die off service. I mean, she needs to be a little bit more soft and approachable and a bit more bubbly. So, you know, she needs to work on that. You know, I just wish that when she walked by, I should say, hey, you should smile more, toots, and slap her on the ass. I mean, what are you just turning into a actual man right in front of our eyes? Like, who says that? Like, she'd be great if she was just cheerier, you know, just gave a little more of a smile.
Ben Mandelker
So Dr. Tiffany Moon and her guests arrive on the boat. There's a lot of hello, Hello. And what I. Like you said before, she's not all like, oh, my God, look at me, someone who is on the Real Housewives. I'm going to crack a million hilarious jokes and capture, you know, the hearts of America all over again. She's just like, oh, hi. Yeah, I'm a practicing. I'm a practicing doctor at the moment, and I've been on yachts before. I'm already, like, a little unimpressed by this. But okay, we can do this. We can. We can play. We can do this. We can pretend.
Ronnie Karam
Let me see. Where are the guests coming? I don't see where the guest.
Ben Mandelker
It's just in these. It's in these three italicized lines.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, radio is one hour until guests arrive. Guests arrive. Oh, guests arrive.
Ben Mandelker
Wow, you really got.
Ronnie Karam
You really got some meat out of that.
Ben Mandelker
Well, because they brought. This is like, no you're right.
Ronnie Karam
I just. I just scrolled over it. You know what? Things are in italics. I tend to scroll over it because I'm like, not important. That's how I get through. That's how I read so much.
Ben Mandelker
It's the most important. That's why it's italicized. It's like, just arrive.
Ronnie Karam
I always run into. Run into, like, walls and stuff when I'm doing a play because I just never read the stage directions. Ronnie, why are you doing this? From the eaves. Like, sorry, was I supposed somewhere? Like the bedroom interior? Bedroom. Ronnie.
Ben Mandelker
Like, okay, you know what? Ronnie's out of the show. Let's get his understudy on. Okay, someone get Larouche. Pos okay, she's on French parker posy.
Ronnie Karam
She's like, what? Like, can you give us a little less attitude? Okay? I do not have to. I'm. I'm a French parker.
Ben Mandelker
Pos Tonight's production of the Sisters Rose and Swag will feature Carla Lolly music and La Roche Posay.
Ronnie Karam
So now everyone's taping cabinet shut and stuff. And Glenn's saying boat things. You know, he's like, the wind is shifted, and we need someone to pull out a lazy sheet so we can pin the hamtalk to the Cancun. And then, you know, we can't lose the wind because it's. If timing's wrong, the Cancun's gonna go.
Ben Mandelker
Under the ding ding.
Ronnie Karam
And then we're gonna lose wind. And the sales, we're all gonna die with the mermaids. Back to the mermaids, everybody.
Ben Mandelker
So it's, like, very exciting. And they're gonna do this. They're. They're so. They're sailing. The sales go up, and Tiffany Moon's like, cool, we're a little diagonal now. This is great. Okay, well, I guess. I guess I see the appeal of not being on a normal yacht. Okay, that's a little tilted.
Ronnie Karam
You guys do. You're like a regular boat, but you go tilty. Like, that's great.
Ben Mandelker
Wow.
Ronnie Karam
This one little area that we sit in here, or this is like watching.
Ben Mandelker
Cameron Westcott trying to drive. It's just sort of. Feels sort of strange and dangerous. Okay, cool.
Ronnie Karam
So was there a theme here? Or is that guy having a bad day? Are you supposed to be sweaty and smelly and scraggly looking? Because it's sailing. But, hey, this is my theme. All right. You like to try some fried chicken? Get your hands off me, please.
Ben Mandelker
Okay, well, this is cool. And so then Glenn's like, well, we can Attack. Now we're gonna turn around and get more air. We can attack, and we have a lot of sailing. It'll be fun. And so they have to do this thing, and they need basically whatever it is that they're doing. They need Emma to pull some rope. And Emma's just sitting there with the rope. She, like, picks it up. She's like, oh, well, it's not budging. Oh, well, I can't bring any more out at all.
Ronnie Karam
Nothing more is coming out, but it's just so much slack. Speaking of, that's what they used to call me. Emma the slacker. Emo Emma. Slacker. Slacker. Give her a whacker. But it never really works. Did it still move at the same pace as I did then?
Ben Mandelker
I, like. She's like, yeah, there's just no more rope to pull. Even though there's a huge amount of slack. I'm like, if there's slack, that means you can pull it. Come on, Emma.
Ronnie Karam
That's how it works, Emma. It's actually ridiculous. Can you check on Emma? I don't know what's going on up there. What's happening here? Nothing, really. It just stopped coming out. It was working, and then it wasn't. It was basically like me before my soul was destroyed. Nobody wanted to me. And then being told my rope tying wasn't correct.
Ben Mandelker
It's tragic. Meanwhile, her sister is, like, out there pulling a rope. Like, I. I think. I think I figured it out. Gary, would you like me to do the rest of this?
Ronnie Karam
Her sister's standing on top of the sale. Like, all right, I'm doing this with just holding my T shirt out. All right, I've got it working. Right. I'll stay, like, while the wind is here.
Ben Mandelker
The sister's just dangling from a hot air balloon blowing at the sale. Don't worry. I got it, everyone. You'll be sailing in no time.
Ronnie Karam
Stephen blows better than me. I mean, it really explains a lot, doesn't it? So Emma's like, parsifal is the biggest boat I've ever worked on. All the other sailboats I've worked on, they don't have lazy sheets. They don't have hydraulic sails. I don't believe enough sales, really. They're normal boats. Well, you know, not boats, really. Mobile buses. More like, you know, buses. I carry drinks from one end to the other end. I was never really hired to do that, but people always did love their diet soda when I gave it to them. Some of them would get offended, but I would say it's not that I'm saying you look fat. I just only had the money to buy one flavor of soda until they hire me on this bus. Anybody know anybody on planes? That's where I'm really. How I got here.
Ben Mandelker
The boats. The boats that I worked on, we didn't have sales. We just had a little section that said mobile orders. You put the coffee there, and people come in, they get their coffee. Now, I think about, it was a Starbucks, wasn't it? Not a boat. Well, that explains a lot.
Ronnie Karam
And then Gary comes down on his big fucking white horse with this cape flying in the wind. Listen, you know, I get the whole, like, no one wants some man coming in, acting like you need to be saved. You're literally not doing it, okay? This is not a situation where Superman is just, you know, saving a kitten that's already in the ground. You're very high up a tree, okay?
Ben Mandelker
Gary's like, well, to be fair, I did come in with my big white horse, but my cape was not flying in the wind because Emma took too long to pull that rope. So my kid was just sitting flaccidly. Come on, hurry up, Emma.
Ronnie Karam
Maybe I'm just a poor little weak girl, and I can't do it. The boys are better than me, and I'm just inept. I'm gonna prove myself by sitting here and staring at that drain. What are you doing?
Ben Mandelker
I know they'll see that I'm actually quite talented. I'm going to roll up six towers, and that was one of them. And I think I'm done for the day.
Ronnie Karam
So now it's time to put the sales away. And everyone's like, that was it. So that was. That was it. Wow. That was about as long as Real Housewives of Dallas lasted.
Ben Mandelker
Wow. That was. That was really great and very exciting. I'm. Wow. And to think that this show is getting bigger ratings than my show ever did. Wow. Congratulations. So then.
Ronnie Karam
So then, going home, huh? Did that one sale say something problematic to that other sale?
Ben Mandelker
Because I'll do it. Just packing her up. Is that a Westcott sale?
Ronnie Karam
Okay, ladies pack. We sit on our suitcases, right? Because ladies can't fit everything in their suitcase.
Ben Mandelker
Dumb. Sales get wind smart. Sales get everything.
Ronnie Karam
I think of stupid Cameron every single time I'm packing and can't close my suitcase. And I'm like, do not sit on it, because I never will forget that scene. This is how Mommy Clothes is her suitcase. Why? Because she's a girl.
Ben Mandelker
When. You know, when we went to Cabo San Lucas on Vacation. The food was so good that when we came back, all we've been doing is eating Mexican food. Because food in Mexico, Mexicans make good food.
Ronnie Karam
And then they'd be like, ma'am, what would you like? A hamburger, please. It's not Mexican food. Yes, it is. That's all we ate in Cabo. She the one who could only have like a hamburger without ketchup or something. Like every time they went to some. Oh, whatever that show. Okay.
Ben Mandelker
No, the only thing I would eat was Sparkle Dog, all of Cameron's greatest hits.
Ronnie Karam
It didn't taste great, but I really love the once a month poo poo would come out. It would be glittery.
Ben Mandelker
She's a terrible person, but God, she made me laugh, so. She really did. Here comes one right now.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, man. The change over from summer to fall has been so lovely. I love fall clothes and it's so nice getting an upgrade from my regular old dusty hoodie to something brand new and stylish from Quint.
Ben Mandelker
I know this is like layering season and I am ready for a beautiful, beautiful sweater. Quince offers affordable, high quality essentials for any wardrobe.
Ronnie Karam
I just got the most adorable casual jacket which I'm going to use more than anything else in my wardrobe from Quince. I mean, I look adorable and you look. I can't even oversell this. I look adorable in this thing.
Ben Mandelker
You do. And I honestly like, like they're fall sweaters. I'm loving the color palette they have for them. They're just like very subtle, like a lot of stones and beiges. It's really my vibe. For fall 2024, upgrade your wardrobe with.

Ben Mandelker
So anyway, now that. Now Tiffany and the gang, they all want to take photos. So Daisy's like, girls, they're going to be doing nine photos. They're going, I'm going to go just before nine to do some photos somewhere. So Danny, me, I'm gonna send you who's doing service tonight. So then Danny raises her hand and Diana, who want. Diana wants to do service. But she did that thing at the beginning of the season where she says, I like. I do. I do housekeeping. So she's stuck in housekeeping. Also, she kind of sucks at service too, which is what happened last episode. So Diana's mad. She, like, stupid.
Ronnie Karam
She does kind of suck at it, but that's so funny. And I need her to be on service all the time now because when she's like, well, finally I'm out of pool. Poop, poop land, I can now do service. And then we find out why she's not doing service. She's like, you did not like my drink. Please die in fire.
Ben Mandelker
So the guests are doing their photo shoot and they go up to this, like, little plateau or some whatever. They're doing photos and Danny and Keith are standing by. And Danny's like, it's gonna be awesome. 10 years. This is really romantic. And he's like. And she like, sort of taps him or nudges him or something. There's like a little thing. And he's like, what was that for? She goes, it just a little nudge. Not. No flirting in front of the guests. Hey, What? No flirting. What are you talking about? No flirting in front of the guest. Be professional. She's like, not sure I understand that. What's that word again? Professional. Professional.
Ronnie Karam
It's like, you're. I'm professional. I mean, what.
Ben Mandelker
What.
Ronnie Karam
What they hear under my breath doesn't matter. And he's like, danny has no appreciation of work versus play. What does she expect is going to happen right now? We start making out here? Rolling on the ground. Yeah, that's. That's what she's expecting. I mean, I'll bet she walks in and makes out with a Walmart greeter every single time she goes in there, you know, hey, how are you doing? I knew you were enemy. Get the over here, little one.
Ben Mandelker
I wish they had done that. I would have liked Tiffany to be disgusted by it. Like, oh, my God. These, like, stews, they're like literally rolling around on the ground right now. Like, are we even? She's like, I'm gonna do a tik tok.
Ronnie Karam
So Danny's like, it feels like we're dating during the Victorian era. Whenever he's in uniform, that work belt that he wears is basically his chestity belt. Boner killer. I think you're quite a boner killer yourself. You're too much. I know too much.
Ben Mandelker
Okay, settle down, Lady Chatterley. Okay, you guys are working. Like, he's right. Like, this is not the time to flirt, you know? And I'm sure he would maybe like, I don't know, I just think that like, like, well, he's. He is very dull. So it's also sad that you're trying so hard to flirt with this very dull man, but you're also at work.
Ronnie Karam
But he's just a dull person like you to be with this guy. She's basically just like, you're the only one right now, so I'm just going to make your life hell. But she's not going to give this guy the time of day in real life, and I think he knows that. No, but she's taking it personally. But she's the one being mean. Mean. You know what I mean? If that makes any sense. Like, she's not being mean right now, but I think she. Her plan is to him and then leave him, and she knows that's gonna hurt his feelings and she doesn't care. She's like future mean just because she needs attention and she's desperate. It's sad. It's just sad. Like the whole beating someone over the head over and over, like needing attention this bad. It's a boner killer. Okay, so then choice is like, well, I'm not an experienced Japanese chef, but sophomore year of high school, I was like, oh.
Ben Mandelker
Which was last year. Currently in.
Ronnie Karam
Ron went, took me to a Panda Express and said, this is not how we do things.
Ben Mandelker
Bronwyn then threw five chopsticks at my head and slammed my face into a rice cooker. So that's really my experience with Japanese cuisine. But I think I got it. I think I got it.
Ronnie Karam
I'll never forget leaving that mall with. She'd bought a shirt that says I'm was stupid that pointed over to me. Still an egg on my face. Literally. Yeah. So I'm ready to do a 10 courser. Let's get to it.
Ben Mandelker
So then they're heading back from the photo shoot, and now we get dinner. They're serving all sorts of stuff. Prawns, avocado rolls, tempura, carrots, corgettes, eggplants. All sorts of Actually, very delicious looking stuff. And one guy wants an espresso martini, a guy named Jerry.
Ronnie Karam
Hey, I have to say something. They said he goes. He serves this big kind of whole fish thing that actually looks really good. And the guy goes, is this Chilean sea bass? And he goes, no, it's Mediterranean sea bass. Is that. Did that ping you? I mean, I'm laughing because, honestly, I should know this. We've actually gotten to multiple Chilean sea bass discussions on this show over the years because I used to be a waiter, and so I was like, you're allowed to still have Chilean sea bass. And you're like, no, you're not. And that was like, a big, huge thing back in the day. I remember. Remember when Chilean sea bass was canceled for a while and I didn't know, and I tried to stand up for it, and then it came back.
Ben Mandelker
20. 20 was a rough year. Yeah.
Ronnie Karam
I mean, even fish get to come back from being canceled. That's not amazing. They're even like, we forgave the fish. Now Chilean sea bass now has its own show on Bravo, everybody.
Ben Mandelker
Okay, well, it gets. Wait, listen to this. I'm so glad you brought this up, because. Okay, so I did not find anything that said Mediterranean sea bass. But what I did find there is a Wikipedia page for a European sea bass. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. In North America, it is widely known by one of its Italian names, branzino. So look at this. The sea bass. So, like, so. So Chilean sea bass is an upgrade from Patagonian toothfish. But we are like, but we don't want to have a European sea bass. We want to have it be branzino. Wow.
Ronnie Karam
Well, Chilean isn't from Chilean sea bass is not even sea bass at all.
Ben Mandelker
It's real Patagonian tooth.
Ronnie Karam
Patagonian tooth fish and comes from South American waters.
Ben Mandelker
What I'm saying is, it's so funny that, like, with one fish, we're like, we need to upgrade it by calling a sea bass with another fish. We're like, sea bass isn't good enough. We need to make friends, you know?
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. We need to specify. It's like, there was already another sea bass in sag, so they had to change their name.
Ben Mandelker
It's like Vanessa Williams and Vanessa L. Williams. You know, it was like. But I had a song called Save the Best for Last. It was a huge hit. Sorry, you're gonna have to be Vanessa L. Sorry.
Ronnie Karam
You literally should have gotten here first. You know what I mean? So then Diana is now Making an espresso martini. And Daisy's like, it's not for Jerry. How did you make that? And she's like, I made a coffee, vodka, and this. Whatever this is. And she goes, okay, Grant, nothing can go wrong. So she delivers it. And Jerry the guest is like, excuse me, this is bad luck, ma'am. And she's like, oh, it's missing something. Oh, it's missing one bean, huh? And they're like, ooh. And he goes, yeah, I love health and wealth, but I need the happiness it needs to have three beans on top of my.
Ben Mandelker
Right, guys, I did not know this was a thing. And I hate. I hate this, because now it's gonna be a thing if it wasn't a thing, because it's now on a national platform. But since when does the number of beans, like. Okay, espresso martinis are brand new. I'm sorry. Like, they, like. Especially the modern version of them. Like, they first showed up in, like, what, 2000? And then, like, the modern version, not new.
Ronnie Karam
It's already graduated from high school. It's had babies. It's married, like, living down the street. Try trying to vote on your HOA.
Ben Mandelker
But those espresso martinis in 2000 were, like, all, like, just nothing but, like, Kahlua and stuff. But like, these. This type of, like, espresso martini has been around with us for, like, six or seven years. Either way, like, I think when you talk about things having, like, oh, a tradition of, like, there must be three beans on it. Otherwise, it's bad luck. I feel like you need to have, like, 200 years under your belt before you're talking about those road traditions. You're just from the 2000s. You don't have a good luck, bad luck situation yet.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, but that's why they have to do it. You know, you have to keep. You have to make tradition. Tradition takes a long time. So it's three beans. You know, all it takes is one moody Brazilian. Russian. Brazilian. Russian lady. Yeah, up your entire. Your tradition. You know, you put the three beans on, and it makes it worse because she's like, well, I know that they normally have three beans, but I've also seen two beans. I've seen one bean. I've seen no bean. Who cares? It's like, obviously, you know, it's supposed to be three beans. Put the third bean on there. What are you doing? Why do you need to start a fight over beans? Okay, new at service, lady. You're gonna be back in the laundry. No, she's like, I'm blazing trail. The Russians would never make me do 3. The Russians hate luck.
Ben Mandelker
Okay, well, guess what? I have an update here, everyone. So the. This is. According to Google AI, the three coffee beans that float on top of an espresso martini are a symbol of health, wealth, and happiness. The tradition comes from the Italian practice of serving sambuca with three coffee beans on top, which is known as con la mosca, or with the fly, which, by the way. Can we work on the naming of our traditions? Thank you. The number three is considered to be especially significant in Italian culture, and the custom of placing three beans on a drink is a way to wish well for those sharing it. And the three beans are subtle yet meaningful garnish that adds symbolism and enhances the experience of drinking an espresso martini. When friends, family, or lovers toast with espresso martinis, they are celebrating these three things together. The coffee beans can be eaten, if desired.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, for sake.
Ben Mandelker
But the thing is this. That's someone. Okay, that's a sambuca tradition. But, like, I don't know. I'm just saying. I'm just saying this guy needed to chillax a little bit, you know?
Ronnie Karam
I think he was just kidding. I mean, it turned into such a big deal, but he's like, excuse me, I need my other bane. And then she's like, I'm giving you a decaf from now on. Whoa. What the hell? And so then Daisy's like, diana, try. Even if they're an. Try not to let it get to you. Because they didn't. Because she goes, no, I was joking. I don't care, to be honest. She goes, but they care. It's about what they think, right? You are in service. All right.
Ben Mandelker
I also love the idea that, like, her reprimand is that she just can take away the caffeine, but the booze can stay. She's like, you know what? I'm cutting you off. No, you can still get wasted. Just no more caffeine. You're too gingery, too hyper.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. So then Emma and Gary are talking, and Emma was like, it's gonna get cold tonight. Alone in boring school. And he's like, yeah, I'll give it a burrito today and put salt on the bed. Everything I'm gonna do. She goes, well, I'll make sure the holes are done as well. No, thank you. No hugs, no celebrations, no rays. Here I am, alone on an island, dying, alone in the rain. I'm drowning. I'm drowning.
Ben Mandelker
One last question, Gary, before I drown to death. When you said Put salt on it. Did you mean the boat or my wounds? Because both seem to be acceptable.
Ronnie Karam
So then the next drink comes out, and this one's by Danny, and Jerry's like, who made this espresso martini? Get over here. This is the best espresso. Happiness, health, and wealth. Get the over. She's like, I know. Russians.
Ben Mandelker
She's like, this is why I hold back coffee bean, because I knew you'd play favorites, okay? Oh, Danny is the best. Oh, it's annoying to my ego now. That being said, by the way, really, how much effort does it take to pluck out two more coffee beans to go on top of the martini? Let's be honest. As much as I just gave that guy, it's like, also like you're. You have access to the beans right there. You cannot climb. Clasp two more of them. Come on.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, but this is where I kind of turned against the guy, because at first I was like, he's just kidding, but now he's just openly like, oh, I'm gonna turn them against each other. No. Nothing's better than a maid fight. Am I right, boys? Hey, Danny, you're great. She sucks. Talk it.
Ben Mandelker
I liked what. It was funny when she says, you know what? From now on, I only serve you decaf. And he, like, got that look on his face. He looked like he just walked through a glass door. Like. Like he thought the door was open and it was actually closed. He's. Wow. He was, like, caught off guard by that. I thought that was a very clean glass door.
Ronnie Karam
I don't know why I'm laughing so hard at that. It's not like I walked glass doors multiple times in my life.
Ben Mandelker
Listen, we've seen it on this show many times. There's. Oh, like, I feel like once. Like, once in a blue moon. We'll see. On one of these charters, some lady walks into the glass door that leads to the inside, and she.
Ronnie Karam
Her head.
Ben Mandelker
Susan, are you okay? She goes, yeah, I'm fine.
Ronnie Karam
Fine.
Ben Mandelker
I'm just an idiot.
Ronnie Karam
I do it all the time. I really do. Remember when that bird slammed into my wall in Texas or my window, and people were like, you have to put the bird film on it. I was like, birds? I'm not putting a special that might help me from knocking into the. Into the windows. I'm literally an idiot. I'm like, I hear something out there. Hey, who's that? The. Ow. It's a window frame around it.
Ben Mandelker
So the guests go to bed, and then he's like, I actually love them. I Love all the meal attention that I get. And they give me so many compliments. And Daisy's like, yes, well, you can go to bed. Be up at 9 00am so then Emma, meanwhile, is sitting in the. The captain's chair, the wheelhouse, on anchor watch. And she's like, what I love about yachting is interacting with my team, interacting with the guests. But a night shift, just spending seven hours with no one, it's not the nicest thing to do when you're feeling a bit shitty about yourself. And then her sister comes on board and it's like, I love night shift. I'm quite good at it too. Oh, look, the anchor's dragging. Everyone, Everyone, the anchor's dragging. Thank you, Emma's sister. You saved the boat. Oh, no problem.
Ronnie Karam
We've got the night shift. God, she's gonna sing on the night shift.
Ben Mandelker
Just kill me. If you on night shift, here's what you do. Keep an eye on the anchor. Cause you don't want her to get out of place. It's like, oh, God, Jesus.
Ronnie Karam
I believe in night and shifts. God, please make it stop.
Ben Mandelker
It's gonna be a long night. All night on the night shift. On the night shift.
Ronnie Karam
Near, far, wherever you are. Night shift.
Ben Mandelker
So don't cry for me, Sahar Lahat. The truth is I never left you. I'm just on night shift, watching in anchor. I'll keep the boat safe. You rise in the morning, you little wanker. Emma's like, I've got it. I. Let me try, let me try. Anger.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, no, Emma, it's not even got night all. She's in it. Emma, good try though. Sister, I love you. I support you. So I love the idea of her sister being really good, but also super supportive of Emma. I mean, you can do it, Emma. Try again.
Ben Mandelker
You could do it. Sing a song about an anchor. Take any song and just replace really every word about with night shift and angry anchor. Okay. Okay, how about this? Why don't you do like a prayer by Madonna? Okay. Life is anger. Oh, dear. Darling, she's.
Ronnie Karam
I didn't even want to be a yachty, Emma. I just showed up on the boat to show you how easy it could be if you just gave it a little positivity. What? Captain? Oh, sure, I'll be captain. Why not? It should be fun.
Ben Mandelker
Wait, you want to name the boat after me? It's no longer the passer for three or two. It's now called Emma. Sister is the best.
Ronnie Karam
Sure. EMMA Sister 1. Love it. So Emma, after all of this, she's like no one respects me. No one thinks I'm doing a good job.
Ben Mandelker
She goes to sleep on anchor watch falls next day. So then like an hour before her shift is done, she like wakes up and then she goes and like rinses down the boat so everything is wet. And so then she goes to sleep and Keith is walking around, he's like, oh God. So everything is wet. It's not supposed to be wet. It's supposed to be cleaned already and dried and spick and span and it's not.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah. And Gary's like, well, I wanted to ask you about what happened with vincing the boat last night. Well, I rinsed the boat last night. It just, I mean it did take and. Oh really? Because if it happens again, you can pretty much rinse to the AF deck while the other charter gas are up. Then I'm going to walk on the side deck, so going to walk the sun deck either the cockpit down this way. She's like, oh, bear that in mind. Last time. Do you know how difficult it was rinsing the desk for half asleep from just woken up? You know, it's nothing more tiring than sleeping. Sleeping. Isn't that.
Ben Mandelker
So now it's guys, it's time for the guests to leave. It's just a quick one night charter. So Tiffany is like, guys, thank you so much for having us. We were blown away by your sideways boat. That was sideways for a little bit. And you know, your professionalism that you aspire to have but didn't quite achieve, that was wonderful. And the level of service that you sort of provided by giving us that quasi Japanese food and taking us to a little cliff, that was amazing. Danny, you make the best three bean espresso martinis. Other girl, I don't know what the is wrong with you, but the next time you offer a decaf martini to my friend, I'm gonna throw you overboard, okay? Good luck getting surgery in my hospital because you're not waking up.
Ronnie Karam
So they leave and then Emma calls her sister and she's like, hello, Better than you. How are you doing, darling? Good to hear your voice, boy. My sister's definitely one of the best people I'll probably ever know. She's just such a great person to speak to and get advice from. Just every time I talk to her, I just feel miserable. Like I'm at the bottom of the pool and it's just filling up, but I won't float along with it. Do you know what I mean? It's just something comforting about that stillness.
Ben Mandelker
Well, Emma, it's so great to hear from you. You know, I've got some wonderful news. I actually won the American election. And, you know, you're not even supposed to be president if you're not born in America. But they were like, you know what, Emma sister, How about you just run the country? So I won. All those millions of people wrote in my name without even knowing my name. They just said, emma's sister. So anyway, what's going on with you? Oh, you had trouble mopping a floor. She's like.
Ronnie Karam
And she was like. Because I always compared to Lauren, I thought not being as clever as her, I'd act up. It would just make life harder for my mom and my dad and my sister. So I couldn't even do that. Well, Lord's like, all right, quite busy here. You know, I've got the Russian president on one line, someone named.
Ben Mandelker
Someone named Putin says, have you seen my former stew?
Ronnie Karam
He said something like. It was hard to read through the accent, but he said something like, the last dude tried to put three beans on my martini and I had him hanged.
Ben Mandelker
So, yeah, Emma. It's sort of sad with Emma because she's like, yeah, Lauren's always been very clever, and I'm always compared to her. And I thought not being like. She's like, I act up because I'm not as clever as my sister, and then I just make my. Might make my parents life hell. So I'm just like a burden to everyone. I'm like, oh, poor Emma. You're not a burden to us. You're our favorite. It.
Ronnie Karam
So you are our favorite. You little depression. You little depression.
Ben Mandelker
You little Zoloft ball. Come on. So Emma's like, it's been quite hard these last few days, Lauren. I just feel like I've messed up a few times and I've just been getting frustrated with myself. Is what. What is that noise? That's that infernal racket behind you. Oh, sorry, that's just Beyonce. She's singing. Freedom, freedom, freedom to me it's just so great having new friends.
Ronnie Karam
Listen, you're just so harsh on yourself. But remember this. You're never going to be as harsh on yourself as life has always been harsh to you. Do you understand? Life will always win. Look. So all you have to do is wake up in the morning, get out of the bed, say, why am I here? And when you don't get an answer, just cast a vote for me, your sister. Because at the end of the day, if you're crying, at least you could do it at the White. White House. Well, wherever the vice president lives. In their guest room somewhere over there.
Ben Mandelker
By the way, Joe says hi. Joe Rogan. I got his endorsement also. Beyonce and Joe Rogan. They both came together for me.
Ronnie Karam
Both sides of the aisle, you know, both sides of the aisle were so close to me, they stopped calling them aisles. It's just one large group of people. It's quite confusing as you enter because there's no really one way to walk down the center of a room anymore. But you know what? It's what uniting people does.
Ben Mandelker
They got rid of the aisle. It's just like one of those terrible movie theaters where there's just things on the side. So if you have to go to the bathroom, everyone has to stand up. But I said, everyone, before we start this legislation, could you please go to the bathroom beforehand? And they're all following. It's amazing. So tell me, what are you up to? You had a bucket of fried chicken.
Ronnie Karam
I hear if someone does have an accident or does have a need to go immediately, we just crowd surf them with love. Love all the way to where they. So, yeah, sitting there with grief dripping off of her face like, well, I'm really happy for you, you know, you're just such a good person, Laura. I just. I call you and I stop having fits at people because I start imagining myself in your clothes, with your hair and your eyes and your friends, your country now. Really lovely. That much. Got to go, actually. Got to go. Someone's asked me something about the football. I don't know where I've placed it. Surely they'll forgive me. Bye.
Ben Mandelker
So then Glenn's like, okay, everyone, okay, tip meeting. Okay, so another charter in the can. Okay, deck team, we'll keep, you know, good job. No one died. You know, the tender didn't bonk into the boat too much this time, so good job with that. And everyone was happy.
Ronnie Karam
Crashed anything. So that was good. We lost a couple of people. Pieces of cutlery when the drawer flung open. Let's never fix that. It was fun.
Ben Mandelker
You know, Emma, thanks for ruining the sailing. It's the only thing that gets me in erection these days. And I was hoping to get another 30 seconds out of it, but you kind of killed that for me. That's okay, though. You're learning. Okay, so the tip is a pretty good one, is 25,000 US dollars, which is $10,000 more than Dr. Contessa gave for a charter that was twice as long. So Anyway, congratulations, everyone.
Ronnie Karam
One that makes Dr. Contessa over a hundred percent cheaper than Tiffany Moon.
Ben Mandelker
Than Dr. Moon. Of the two Bravo doctors that we've featured, Dr. Contessa is the cheaper one. Even though she had a larger party.
Ronnie Karam
I meant I'm humiliated for Dr. Contessa. That is so shameful. That is embarrassing.
Ben Mandelker
Dr. Contessa, you got your job back. You have a paycheck again.
Ronnie Karam
You're back.
Ben Mandelker
Come on.
Ronnie Karam
So. But, Tiffany, thank you for redeeming housewives for a while. So then co is like, money's cool. But it's really the forever memories I'm here for. I'm kidding. I'm here for the money. Yeah.
Ben Mandelker
So then everyone changes, and they're gonna go out right now. And they go out to dinner, and Emma is at the end of the table, and she's like, I need water right now. And he's like, are you okay? Like, no, I'm feeling hot. I need a cigarette. You know what they say when you're feeling ill? Have water and a cigarette.
Ronnie Karam
It works. Everybody I know does. When you're sick, you smoke. That's what happens.
Ben Mandelker
So they walk out of the restaurant, and Daisy's like, you look really nice. How are you? She like, well, Gary says to me earlier today, he's like, you didn't rinse that down last night, right? And I was like, I did. And I know I'm oversensitive and know, like, my anxiety does get the better of me, but I feel like I'm becoming a hindrance, an anti. Lauren. It stresses me out.
Ronnie Karam
Wasn't the problem that she didn't dry the decks? I think that was some communication anyway, because the decks were all wet when. When Keith woke up and he told Gary all the other ducks were wet. Right.
Ben Mandelker
Well, that was one of the issues. The other thing was Gary's like, okay, so, like, when you need to clean something, like, here's a shammy, and then you just, like, clean means something. And then she stands there with it, and she's like, but what do I use the shammy on? It's like the crim right in front of your face.
Ronnie Karam
Look.
Ben Mandelker
Look alive. Look above.
Ronnie Karam
She's like, God, everyone's so terrible to me all the time. I just. I know I'm oversensitive. I don't want my anxiety getting the better of me, but I feel like I'm just too stressed out. Daisy's like, my advice is to try and let this stuff go over your back. Let me go to the girls and tell them that you think they're ugly cows, and we'll see. How they treat. That should refoc you real quick there, girl.
Ben Mandelker
So, yeah, Emma's like, I'm all sweaty and hot, and I just need to go back and rest. I'm actually sweating so much, it's disgusting. I live rent free in my head, which is good because I can't keep down a job, and it's horrible. So I got this a couple of weeks ago as well.
Ronnie Karam
Unfortunately, my landlord keeps coming by and saying, we don't have stupid here.
Ben Mandelker
Oh, no. I just found out I've been evicted from my own head. Someone has actually bought the plot of land, and. Oh, it's my sister. My sister has gentrified me out of my own head.
Ronnie Karam
Amazing. She's not even living here. She's actually in the presidential palace. I don't know why she needs this. She's moving the vice president's nanny in here. Well, that's lovely.
Ben Mandelker
Every time I say, what was I thinking? I don't actually know because I've been pushed out of my own head. There's now a blue bottle on the main floor and upstairs as luxury condos.
Ronnie Karam
And then Daisy, who's a real advertisement for Ibiza, goes, try and drink some water, even though it tastes gross. Go back. I'm sweating. It's disgusting. I've got to leave. Can you just get my things explained to everyone? I'm so sorry, but I had to. No, no. You're trying to do that. I'm gonna go so someone will follow me. But we already know what happens because Daisy just followed you, and you're even worse. Does everybody have to do it so you can. We can all wallow with you. No, you're gonna go home alone.
Ben Mandelker
I don't think. I don't think she wants that. I don't think she wants people to follow her. I think this is, like, she's doing Moody British, 30, 30, mid-30s, something which is like, literally, I just want to go into a hole and have no one look at me. I'm a monster. Like, it's not like the American, like, oh, my God, I am so mad. I'm gonna walk. Like. No, come on. She's just like, I. I'm a burden to everyone. I'm just gonna crawl into a hole and watch Father Doubting Mysteries on dvd.
Ronnie Karam
Oh, go.
Ben Mandelker
Depressing. It got really depressing. An antiquated. An old show on an antiquated format.
Ronnie Karam
So Daisy's like. Emma's most definitely struggling. Struggling with the workload and being hard on herself, because I think she's trying her hardest and she's still not good enough. So she's still a bit in her head and probably feeling a bit lonely, like on an island the moment. And I can tell you that island's not as good as other islands. I can tell you that. It's just her trajectory.
Ben Mandelker
So, guys, is Emma okay? Blah, blah. And D is like, well, I think she's better now. I think she's just like, personally, I'm not a doctor, but I'm always right. And I think I'm going to diagnose her right now. She has shingles. It's like, oh, no, no. She has heat exhaustion. She's having appendicitis of the brain.
Ronnie Karam
You are using her too much, Gary. You are working out too much. That's a problem. You're tough, boss. Gary. You're so tough.
Ben Mandelker
And G. Well, it's a industry. Because Daisy said that she has heat exhaustion, which she does not have. She's having, like, a panic attack, right? So Danny's like, it's just general exhaustion.
Ronnie Karam
Like, I can't.
Ben Mandelker
She. Yeah, she's having work stroke. So Danny is like, actually, I feel like it's your fault because the airon isn't even working to so.
Ronnie Karam
Oh.
Ben Mandelker
So I guess air conditioning is not working on the boat. So then Danny's like, oh, I'm upset because Keith didn't ask me to be the love of his life and marry him on top of that cliff. And they're like, oh, God, this again.
Ronnie Karam
And G's like, keith, keep up your game. He's like, oh, hey, man, guest come first. And Daisy's like, keith, if it makes you feel better, if you did that to me, I would have thrown you over the class.
Ben Mandelker
So then they. They go to a club, and Emma's back on the boat, and Keith and Danny are, like, sitting next to each other and he's like, how you doing? And he's like. She's like, I just want to dance. He's like, that's it. Don't you want to talk? Why are you being so cool with me tonight? Like, sir, you're at a club, okay? Like, I was on your side about the professionalism, but, like, you coming to be like, why are you acting this way?
Ronnie Karam
It's like, he is, though, because. No, but she's not rebuffing her there at work. And now they're finally at a place where she can flirt with him and she's not. She's like, off.
Ben Mandelker
So Keith is like. He's like, look, I'll buy you a drink. We can have a chat. So Danny's like, what? Like, what do you want me to tell you? It feels like you only have fun with me when you decide we're gonna have fun. And I'm constantly flirting and, like, when we were off that cliff that together, that it was like, no banter. Like, not even banter. Like, don't you even know? I was, like, standing in the stadium with, like, 10,000 men staring at me. And I'm chosen you. So what's going on with that?
Ronnie Karam
I've chosen you. You've literally chosen everybody. What are you talking.
Ben Mandelker
Also, don't forget. Don't forget you. You also were, like, hot to trot for the child at the beach club.
Ronnie Karam
So, yeah, like, five minutes, Gary, so give me a break. So then Daisy says, like, Daisy's basically. He's like, I just. I don't think that's fair. She's like, well, you can't just sit there and wait for me to expect you to be more comfortable. I'm going to carry on with my life regardless. And he's like, okay. And she. So she's like, I just feel like it's just constantly me initiating, and I'm not going to wait for you to become more and more relaxed. It's just me putting in the effort every time. And he's like, all right. She goes, are we done? He goes, all right, let's go. Have fun. Yeah.
Ben Mandelker
So then. And then Gary's being silly, and Daisy's like, there are few people in the world that can make people laugh the way Gary can. And cut to Gary. And Chloe's like, yeah, he's funny. She's like, you know, you. You and Emma and Davide, you know, help clean up that. That, for me, is so refreshing that you guys have been so next level, and it just allows us to be with the guests. It's so refreshing to see. And Keith is like, yeah, cool. I love this. So she's, like, really happy with. With the staff right now.
Ronnie Karam
So then Danny, Gary start their flirtatious romance. And she's like, why is everybody talking about work done sexy for me. She's. Yeah, you love it, don't you? You love it. So they start their thing. And then Poise and Keith are catching up. And course is like, what's wrong? And he's like, getting weird vibes from Danny. It's almost like she's like, one town bike saw the other town bike and they decided to rack up together. It's basically what's happening. You're over, sucker.
Ben Mandelker
So now they get into taxis. And now Daisy is like, oh, Keith, what's wrong? Tell us. Give us a kiss. And he. She's like. He's like, no, no. It's like, are you mad about Donnie? He's like, a little bit. I shouldn't be this sensitive. But she's like. She's like, get it through your little head, you know? And d. Then we cut to Danny, and she's talking to Gary because Danny and Gary are having fun. And she's like, so you think you actually go to the hot tub tonight? He's like, perhaps I will. Will there be fried chicken?
Ronnie Karam
So Gary's like, oh, you should. Come on, Gary. Come to the hot tub. You should do it. And Gary's like, such a face. Face, beautiful brains. And then Daisy, meanwhile, Daisy's, like, stroking Keith's hair. He's lying on her and she's, like, petting him, stroking his hair. Like, it's all right there. It's all right, boy. And at one point, Chloe was like, wow, Daisy's really giving me such positive vibes. Give it a minute. Okay. Yeah.
Ben Mandelker
Let'S put 19 Pitas in a basket that's supposed to have 20. And then see her positive vibes.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, exactly.
Ben Mandelker
Doesn't hurry in the basket.
Ronnie Karam
Basket of magic over on her. She will not have it. So, yeah, Daisy is like, oh, Keith is such a nice power son. He really has. But, you know, nice guys finished last, unfortunately.
Ben Mandelker
Yeah. And then Danny and Gary are taking shots in the Jacuzzi, and, you know, Daisy goes to bed, checks on. On Emma and everything. And Dan is saying, like, I've been deprived of attention, and Gary seems to be giving me this attention and the bent at the time needs. So, you know, as long as I get detention, doesn't really matter who it is. It could be just an empty vessel of a human. As long as I'm getting that attention, it works for me. And then they see. And they see some people jumping in the water, like, down the ways. So they're like, should we do it? And so then they jump into the water, and then they're swimming, and then they're kissing and looks like Danny has moved on.
Ronnie Karam
Yeah, well, that whole, like, nice guys finish last, you know, in reality, guy. Nice guys do not finish last. They actually. Actually finish first with giant houses and beautiful families. The people that finish last are the people that insist on being with douchebags like Gary. You guys think, oh, my God, life's so more so exciting. And then they cheat on you and leave you, and then you're in your 40s and 50s, you know, wondering why that guy was an to everybody but you finally was an to you. Stop choosing pieces of. Okay, go find yourself a nice, boring man and just yourself if you have to. Okay? But just stop choosing heads there. Happy election day, everybody.
