Who cares what happens when there's so much what happens? Who cares what happens when there's so much that crappens? Hello, and welcome to Watch what Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. This is part two of the recap. If you missed part one, go check out your podcast feed. It's right there. And without further ado ado, let's get right back into the recap. Carl is so happy that there's, like, a worse breakup story on Summer House now than him and Lindsay.
B
Sweet green. So did he tell you he cheated? And she goes, I found out after. Like, you didn't come loud, clean, and, like, I found out after, and it was the worst day of my entire life. Like, without any shadow of a doubt. Like, I was so upset with him and so heartbroken, I didn't give a. So I'm so. I'm really excited about this summer. So thank you for the question, Carl. I did not mean to cry the first day.
A
KJ's like, Whoa, yo, don't ever apologize for crying, man. Carl's like, yeah, everybody at this table has cried their eyes out in this room, in some room in this house, everyone's cried.
B
We're just used to it being because of Lindsay. But this was refreshing.
A
This was refreshing. Yeah. Solid. Solid to yours. It's a different kind of vibe. We like that. Like, yeah, especially Kyle. He's cried the most. I'm crying right now over that salmon. What a waste, man.
B
How did we not get a montage of Kyle crying? We needed? So they all cheers each other. And Bailey's like, okay, Kyle, So I've cried, so now I'll make Amanda cry. So what about your DJ career? Why don't you tell us about that? He's like, oh, God, I'll tell you when it started. In the womb. In the womb. In the womb.
A
I want to start my own business. And he got so mad about it that he decided that he wanted to be a DJ despite me. And then he became a dj, which. Oh, that's an amazing summary of events. And she's like, well, tell me where I went wrong. Now I will say. I mean, I don't. I don't. I don't like the situation with his DJing. It does not seem like he's tending to what is supposed to be the love of his life. But I don't. I don't. I never took it that Kyle started it to spite Amanda. It was more like in the conversations, he admitted that he wanted to be a dj, but he was doing this corporate thing because this is what was right. And the vibe was like, well, then be a dj. Why are you not doing the thing you want to love? So he started doing the thing that he loves. And now Amanda's like, he's doing it despite me, which, like, I don't. I personally did not take. Get that takeaway. But he may be going out and taking so many gigs despite her, but.
B
Well, I mean, I.
A
What did you think?
B
I think Amanda's going a little too hard at this right now before we hear what she has to say later. At this point, I was like, God, she's really not relenting. Like, she's going so hard and, like, purposely trying to start fights at dinner and all of this. But from what I remember, Kyle was like, literally crying because she wanted to go start a bikini line. He's like, you can't leave lover boy.
A
Right?
B
And so it became her being like, oh, my God, if you want to start a business, start a business. Because he was, like, literally sitting there crying. He's having a temperate tantrum that she. She wanted to have a bikini line for girls with big boobs, and he couldn't take it. So, you know, I don't know that it was to spite her, but I can see how she's like, oh, wow. So I want to start a business. So now that means that you can stay out every day till six in the morning. Like, great, right?
A
And. And meanwhile, my business gets completely overshadowed by your DJ career, which is what the only thing that people talk about. So I understand why she's frustrated. I just didn't. I. I was like, I'm going to give this one little thing to Kyle, which is that I don't think he started it to spite her, but I think that maybe his distance from her maybe was. Maybe there's some spite in that. I don't know. But now he wants to go out.
B
Every night and do whatever he wants until 6 in the morning. He's been like that since they've started their relationship. So he's just giving himself a reason to go do, you know? And he's also tying it in with lover boy because he's like, yeah, you know, like, I get to really go promote lover boy because I'm sure he takes cases of lover boy, and everybody buys lover boy and stuff. So he's like, selling his thing and getting paid to dj. So he's like, I'm saving the biz. I'm saving the family business. You know, he's given himself this whole workaround.
A
Yeah. At what point? This is a. This is like, an honest question. Lover Boy has now been around on the show for several years. Like seven or eight years. At what point, like, does it stop being such, like, a dog and pony? Horse and pony show. Dog and pony show, Whatever. Whatever. Pony. Whatever show that involves a pony. Why? When does it stop being that? Like, I understand you always have to promote your product, but doesn't it sort of feel like at a certain point, Lover Boy should be big enough now that it's like, it's on the trajectory of, like, Poppy? So Poppy. Everyone. Everyone knows what poppy is, I think. And we know. We. We are part of the Poppy origin story. We're not part of it, but we observe the Poppy origin story because the people who created Poppy were on House Hunters, and we recapped that House Hunters episode several years ago, and they were like, we have a new soda and it's doing well. It's doing well in Whole Foods or. And now they. They sold like. Like a billion dollar deal with whoever it was, Pepsi or Coke. We saw Bethany with Skinny Girl, and she spun that up into something really massive and major. And I kind of feel like Lover Boy, like, we still have Kyle getting cases of it and going from club to club to club to get people to sell it. Like, it feels like it shouldn't need a DJ to get. To get those cases moving. Do you know what I'm saying?
B
Doesn't it talk about it? They talked about it a couple years ago or last year, and they were saying that it's not very successful and they're still in a ton of debt. And they were hoping that. They were hoping with Lover Boy that they were going to make this big company and sell it off and make a ton of money, but it's just not in a place where they can sell it off. So they're kind of stuck with it, trying to make the initial investment back so they can get out of it.
A
Yeah, I mean, they get so much promotion from this show. So, I mean, I get it. Part of the. Part of Lover Boy has, like, it has become totally linked with Kyle. And, you know, he does. He is gonna still do these gigs, but there's part of me that just feels like if you're. If you have a relationship that is straining because of these DJ gigs, like, can you pull back on these DJ gigs? Like, at what point is Lever Boy gonna be sort of its own thing that. That it can. You're still going to Be able to sell units without you having to go hit the pavement every single day.
B
I mean, this was a problem before the dj is this. The problem was the same thing before the DJ career. It was, Kyle's going out and partying every night. Kyle just wants to go out and party every night. He needs to be with somebody who wants to go out. I don't think Kyle's evil for wanting to go out and party every night. He just needs to find somebody that wants to go out and party. He needs to find a party person. Amanda wants to sit on the couch and watch TV and, like, have that kind of a life, which is. That's. That's good, too. She should have that.
A
Yeah.
B
Just need to be more compatible with whoever they're with, you know?
A
Yeah. That's the thing. And that's. That's what we've been saying for years and years. And, you know, it sounds like Amanda is finally hearing the. Hearing the chorus of us on the Internet. But, like, ultimately, you can't force someone to be. Getting married is not going to change someone into the person that you want them to be. It's not like, oh, they're so close to being the person that I. That I want to be with. And once we're married, they're going to, like, change their ways because there's. We're part of something bigger now. We want to start a family. They're going to give up whatever toxic or toxic behaviors or whatever. Whatever behaviors and be the person that I want them to be. And it just doesn't happen, unfortunately.
B
Yeah. And so Kyle's like, wow, I did it despite you. That's an amazing summary of events. She goes, well, tell me where I went wrong. Kyle and Sierra said, yeah, I mean, that was. You summed it up perfectly. She goes, yeah, right? I thought I nailed it. I mean, I thought that's exactly how it happened. Come on. Bailey's like, well, why don't you have a DJ name? And the pressing like, yeah, you need a DJ name. He's like, I'll name it. You know, it's been such a blast, like, merging all the hard work of lover boy and people enjoying it while I play music, you know? And Amanda goes, yeah, I love how he's spinning this. No pun intended.
A
My wife never asked me questions, and now she's actually just not even listening to me. Sarah's like. Amanda goes like, oh, my God, yes. Because I'm so jealous. It literally takes, like, my. Over my whole body. I wake up every morning just feeling total Jealousy. And she's like, what did you say I was jealous? No, I was saying you weren't listening. Oh, well, clearly I wasn't listening.
B
Yeah, I mean, look, there's only so much I can Netflix and chill, so I had to go out and dj. Sorry, I'm a is.
A
I thought he said I was jealous and I wasn't listening. And Levi and Bailey were like talking about how much they love to dance. And I said, perfect, cuz Kyle loves to play music for no one. This is not good.
B
She's.
A
This not good.
B
This is not good. She's such an. She's being an. But I was cracking up. And Bailey's like, well, I mean, you will never play music for no one again because we. We're going to dance. He's like, okay, well raise your hands if you guys want to go out. And so Carl's like, oh, me?
A
I do.
B
Out the mix. I'm out the mix. But I want to be in the mix. But I want to go out. Does that make sense? How are we going to work this into my slogan?
A
Hey guys, I really want to be in the mix. That's why I will offer to clean while you guys go out tonight. Oh, but don't get used to it, newbies. This is a one time only offering in the mix from home. While you guys are a different mix. All right. By Rod.
B
Now just now, Amanda and Sierra are in bed and Jesse comes in and we get the whole, oh my God, are you going to be part of the bed bugs? You want to be the new pain? We get the whole everybody wants to be part of the bed bugs team.
A
Yeah, that. That continues on Wes. Wes comes and sits down and he's like, what are you guys going to do tonight? And Amanda's like, she's. Sierra's definitely staying in. Like, but have you ever had dinner where a person cries on the first night? Wasn't that like crazy? And. Yeah. Well, the good news is I think I like them.
B
Yeah.
A
Like, Wes is like trying really hard to be a bedbug right now because they're like clocking west for trying to come in and start like talking Bailey. And like, no one really wants to do it because they like her. Like, stop. You're. You're not messy. You can't do it. You can't crawl into bed and be gossipy with us. It's. That doesn't work.
B
He's like, well, I want to apply to be a bedbug. I mean, can you be a bedbug? But like, I Don't know, like, still have fun still. She's like, I'm sorry, but are you implying that the bedbugs aren't fun? It's like, yeah, I'm saying that. I'm saying that. He goes, come on, guys. Let me make a joke, too. And Sierra's like, no, you're on probation. Literally. Get out.
A
Get out of here. So Amanda's like, yeah, there's two new girls here. Like, why are you. Like, why are you guys, like, even hanging out with us? Not with them? And Wes is like, because they're crying, remember? Because they cried. I made fun of them crying.
B
So now we go to a sad Kyle monologue. He's kind of, like, not really unpacking, but just kind of throwing stuff around in his bag, talking to himself for the cameras. He's just like, wow, this. Where's everybody? Every summer, Amanda makes me feel like I don't exist. She doesn't give a manager, doesn't even like me. What am I even doing?
A
Leading up to this first weekend, we just haven't had a ton of time to spend together. Like, between January and June, I spent maybe one and a half weekends in the city. I'm literally DJing everywhere. So I was, like, hoping to kind of, like, reunite and rekindle things with my wife. But, like, just right out of the gate, it was clear that, like, no, it's discouraging. It's because you have been gone every weekend from January to June, and now all of a sudden, Amanda has to stop everything because now, on your terms, you want to have, like, couple time. And that's like. Like, why should she have to. Why. Why should she have to now spend her summer, her fun time with the friends, being like, oh, wait, guys, I have to have a couple time with Kyle. Like, I get it. If you really care about your marriage, you will make those. You'll try to take advantage of those moments. But Kyle's acting like some, you know, external force pulled him away from Amanda. Like, he was. He was drafted into the army. It's like, no, you made the choice to book up all your weekends. You have full control over your calendar. You do not have to do that.
B
Well, it definitely made a lot more sense. It definitely made a lot more sense. That's why Amanda's so pissed, because he's never there. And then he's like, I thought we were gonna get to spend. To get time together now that we're scheduled to be on a TV show together.
A
It's like, yeah, I decided this is when I want to be available to you. So you have to like get on board and have a couple time. Now it's like she has no say in this.
B
So now everybody but Amanda and Sierra go out and they're in bed and Amanda's like, what do you think it would be like to be young again? She's like, I'm literally 29. Get off my ass.
A
I'm younger than the newbie. It's weird.
B
So what's going on with you and your husband? She's like, well, you know, he gets on my nerves. But I'm like, I was with friends the other night and they, and they like, one of them has a friend that's like a DJ and he has a wife and kid and he goes out to dj, but he doesn't drink. And then he goes home as soon as the set's done and I'm like, not Kyle. Kyle finishes his set and he goes and drinks and he hangs out with the owners and goes out with the fans. He goes to breakfast with the fans. I mean then there's like another rumor cuz someone wrote to like page six. Like Kyle has been seen X, Y and Z. And Kyle was like, there's no truth to this. And then like they squashed the article, but it's just like, I don't know, like I'm just numb to it now and that scares me. It shouldn't be numb. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crappin commercial.
A
So she says, you know, I used to have crazy reactions. I used to call him. I'd just be like sobbing and I couldn't sleep until he got home. And now I'm just like it. I don't even care what he's doing. But being whatever about everything is really not a good sign. Yeah, it's not.
B
Yeah, she seemed like that for a few years. So she's like, yeah, I've been dealing with this for 10 years. And I, I thought when you fell in love, you fall in love and then you choose a person. You get married and then you have kids and then things get difficult and S's like, yeah, you didn't sign up to be with a dj, that's for sure.
A
Yeah. So Amanda's like, you know, I didn't think would be this hard in the first few years. Like this is not where I thought my life would be right now. But unfortunately it's exactly where we thought your life would be right now. So.
B
Yeah, can't see it when it's you. You Know, it's so easy to see it when it's everybody else. But man, so now everyone's out partying. Now this is the next thing that I. The next flag that comes up for the new guy, he's doing push ups at the club.
A
Yeah, that was weird. I don't like when men do fitness as either a dance or like a. I just don't want to see fitness at the club. Like every now and then, for instance, if you go to like the Abbey or like a gay bar and there's like a go go dancer instead of dancing, you'll see like a guy doing yoga moves. I'm like, that's you're doing yoga. You're not, you're not being a go go dancer right now. You're just doing yoga moves. Or sometimes I'll just like, they will just do push ups. And you're like, why are you doing this right now?
B
I'm not putting a dollar in your ass crack while you're in the. Namaste. Come on, man.
A
This, this, this is not what we're here for.
B
Yeah. So now everybody comes home at like 2 in the morning and goes to bed. But it's freezing in the house. Air conditioner is crazy in there so it's going to be a problem. And. And then Jesse comes in. Jesse and Wes go into the girls room and they're like, oh my God, it's cold.
A
Right?
B
And this is where I was like, ew, get out of here. It creeps. And Jesse's like, this is a crazy room. I mean, I'm not going to tell you how to live. All your clothes are on one bed and then you're cuddling on another bed.
A
What? Jesse, the neat freak is losing his mind. I mean, has he seen Sierra's room though? I feel like Sierra. Maybe Sierra's room has gotten like a little bit better. I feel like in Sierra's early days on the show it was. They just kept on seeing that bed, that laptop on the edge of the bed by her feet. Oh my God. Nightmare.
B
So they're like, this is normal. Whatever. So Kyle goes to bed and he's like, amanda. Amanda. What? Kyle, do you have an eye mask? No, Kyle, I forgot my eye mask. Maybe you'll find it when you find your wedding ring. Kyle.
A
I know it's in the upside down. So then leave Levi and is it Levi or Levy? No, it's Levi. Levi and Bailey are in bed together and Levi's like, I'm probably gonna take my clothes off in the middle of the night. Just so you know. Billy's like, what? She's like. It's like, yeah, just like, I can't sleep with clothes on. And she's like, I. I don't give you my consent to sleep in bed with you naked. That. That ends today. You're. You're gonna keep your clothes on, Levi.
B
So now Kyle's like. She doesn't say anything. He's like, well, me gone. And now it's the next. More. I mean, even this, like, before he left, you knew she's upset because you're going out all the time and she's staying home, so you're going out. Come on, man.
A
You just complained about a couple times. You just complained about. You were hoping for a couple time, and then you went out the first night.
B
And now the next morning, KJ makes everybody breakfast. And they've got 200 people coming to the party today, guys, so they've got to get ready. And now the new guy comes, and his name is Ben, and he looks like Notting Hill Hugh Grant, and he's Australian. And he comes in, and the guy's like, oh, my God, he's so handsome. Because he is. He's really cute. And Wes is like, oh, my God, he's so handsome. You're so tall. You're so tall. Hey, you're tall also. You smell really good. Wow. Really cool, guys. A bit. Really?
A
They, like, love him. He's got, like, the hair of, like, a Greek God. It's, like, curly and swirly, and he's like, so, did you guys go out last night? Give. Give it a crick. Are you a bit dusty?
B
Are you. You all right?
A
You mean any Sheilas?
B
Oh, my God. Are you from Australia? Are you from Australia? Talk more. It's amazing.
A
Put some shrimp on the bar. Kangaroos, wallabies, dingoes. Like, oh, my God, I love the way you. I love the way you talk. Oh, my God. Give it a crack. A little dusty.
B
Rue.
A
Sheila, go on and on.
B
Yeah, well, I met Amanda at a wedding in Italy last year, and we were up. God, that was late. We stayed up. That was a great time, wasn't it? Amanda and Wes is like, what? What? Why is it so awkward now? Did you guys go to, like, an orgy or something?
A
Bailey's, like, sounded like it. So Amanda says, ben and I met at my best friend's wedding in it in Italy while we were skinny dipping. And. How do I explain this? We ended up me, the bride, and Ben skinny dipping in the pool while Kyle was blasting a speaker Walking around outside the pool, and we really got to know each other at that point. Fully nude. Was the groom not in the pool either? Wait, the bride was skinny dipping without the groom?
B
That's Italy. So I think it's so funny that Kyle's just, like, not in the pool. He's just walking around with a boombox. I'm still DJing. Still DJing. I'm DJing. I'm a DJing.
A
Setting the tone, man.
B
Wow. You've seen Amanda's boobs. I've never even seen Amanda's boobs. Yeah, it's a European water. And we see Kyle just getting perturbed. So then Sierra and Carl are knocking on Sierra's door while she's lotioning her legs. I have not seen this much suntan lotion being put onto a leg. It looked like she was icing a cake.
A
Yeah. Kyle was like, oh, whoa, is that lotion? I thought you were putting whipped cream on yourself, which is delicious. She's like, no, it just looks like it. It's just sunscreen. So how's going out last night? I'm already bored with you, Carl. Oh, it was so fun. Was in the mix. It was, like, just really good to get the new kids out. Like, I best was like, I dropped them off, and I was like, when you need me, I'll be in the car. So I just hung out in the station wagon the whole time. Then they came back, and I drove them home. We went to McDonald's, got some. Got some milkshakes, and then I tucked them into bed, and it was just a great night. I was great. Love those. Oh, yeah.
B
Spent a lot of time in the parking lot. I did, however, get people to sign up to promise to buy girl scout cookies when it's that season again.
A
So I was pretty. It was pretty productive. It was pretty productive. Yeah. It's really in the mix. So she's like, okay, well, I'm gonna be an. I'm gonna make an honest effort to go out more this summer. Like, I'm just like, try to do it.
B
Whoa. Really?
A
You seem like you're in good spirits. Like, things are good, Right? So you're still single, right? Because I'm single. And I don't know if you heard, but I'm hashtag in the mix, so just throw my hat in the ring. Softly. Of course.
B
Yeah. I'm still single, too. Wow. Sierra, one of these days, actually, in another world, you and I would be together, and it would be perfect. It would be amazing. Be soft. It would be soft. She's like, yeah, it's not going to happen. So are you dating anyone?
A
Carl?
B
He's like, oh, not officially, no. I'm just, you know, I'm like, I'm not, like, prioritizing meeting someone. Someone. I mean, I just changed my hinge to show me, like, throwing a. A ball out at the Pirates game. Oh. So just waiting for that to really seed itself. Yeah, I did.
A
No, Yeah, I did hear from Lil. She's been taking magic lessons and she learned how to pull a corner out from behind someone's ear. So really excited for her. But I just think I want to just, like, move forward with someone new, so, I don't know, excited. And Sierra.
B
Yeah. I don't want to be, like, 90 and have kids. She goes, yeah, gross. You don't be, like, old picking up your kids. That's gross. Grandpa. He's like, yeah, I'm already kind of a grandpa, I guess. Why aren't you laughing? That was a joke. She's like, oh, well, I mean, in this house you are. But, like, I mean, at least Kyle's older, huh?
A
Yeah, I mean, I know. Well, it's, like, funny. Like, I don't. I don't see Kyle that much. Like, if I do, if I, like, don't go to a show, it's like, hard to see him. It's just like, miss spending, I don't know, like, more quality time with him, you know? Like, I kind of feel like Kyle's just, like, not dare say in the mix. I don't know.
B
So he still loves Kyle but never sees him and he's not getting the emotional needs filled that he needs in this relationship. And Sierra's like, well, yeah, like, the DJ thing. Thing is, like, ridiculous. Like, now you're staying up all night with random people. He's like, yeah. It's like, it makes me nervous for him And Amanda, like, four months ago, like, he was DJing on a Thursday night at Penn State. I'm like, you're going to Penn State on a Thursday night? She goes, the college.
A
Wow. Wow.
B
What's the logic there? He's like, yeah, just. It just seemed a little off.
A
Oh. This kind of life that he's been leading is just, like the last 12 months, which is, like, DJing and, like, hosting these parties, like, just isn't aligned with what, like, should be going on in his life. Okay. Which is, like, really committing to his wife and, like, getting back into, like, good foundation in this relationship and, like, planning for a future in the relationship. And, like, I don't know, like, coming and supporting soft bar. That would be nice, too. If you could do that, that'd be great. You know, whatever. So Sierra's like, kyle, does Kyle think that there's just, like, anything wrong with what he's doing? And Carl's like, I think he knows that things need to be addressed, but I don't know. We just want you to be happy. And he basically is like, we just can see them living parallel realities, and it's, like, not going in the right direction.
B
Yeah. So then everybody's getting ready for this party, and we're gonna up. We've got corn dogs kissing booth. I mean, come on. So they're helping to decorate, and there's going to be a petting. A petting yard or whatever you call that. What do you call it? A petting zoo. Yeah. So they're going to do that. And Kyle's untangling cords. He's like, yeah, you know what? I gotta figure out what these 50,000 courses do. I'm a DJ. So, you know, like. And Amanda's like, whatever, Kyle. It's like, yeah. Amanda's like, I wasn't even thinking about you anyway being out here. I don't care if you're out here. Who's have fun with your cords, Kyle. So she says to me.
A
So they're all setting up and everything, and it's just, you know, people are, like, getting ready. And this is where kj west and KJ are at the ladder. And Wes is like, hey, how you feeling after night one? And KJ's like, I'm good. This morning was just, like, kind of an adjustment. Like, I'm just getting a bit anxious, you know, and no one knew. I was just kind of chilled out. So he tells us he's had anxiety since he was 14. He goes west is like, do you like when people check in on those situations? Like, yeah, man, I really appreciate it. It's like, okay, well, that's what we're doing right now. This counts as my check in. So KJ tells us. I think that's why skating's been so good for me. At least I'm least anxious when I'm doing extreme maneuvers. It's the daredevil or it's. Or if I don't do that, if I don't. Not a daredevil. I just shut down as an adult right now. That's how I handle anxiety.
B
I'm either rolling or I'm fetal, and that's anxiety. So then we go to Sierra and Amanda in bed and oh, and Ben. Sorry. Just. It's always the same. So Sierra and Amanda and Ben are in the kitchen talking, and we find out that Ben was on the Bachelor. He's like, please don't watch it. It was so embarrassing. I mean, when I walk in, this girl's here, this girl's there, and they're like, do you want to get married? What are your feelings? Are we in a relationship? I'm like, what the fuck? This isn't for me, right? They brought me here because I've got a full head of hair. I can't take this. Shaved it off, ran the out of there.
A
So now he's gone from that experience at this house where people are like, so what's the deal? Are you married? Where do you see yourself in five years? You want kids? What? They're basically asking the same questions in summer house. Say, but at least I don't have to choose anyone. So he's just, like, embarrassed about being on the. Yeah.
B
Bachelor is hardcore, though. Oh, my gosh. That one really is like. You're like, hi. How are you? Well, my mom died when I was three. I was really vulnerable right now. So, like, we're dating, right?
A
Whoa, whoa.
B
What?
A
Got to be. It's like. It's good thing he missed last night's dinner. My boyfriend broke up with me over Sweet Green.
B
Yeah.
A
So the animals are coming in. There's a donkey. Sierra's very happy. And Kyle's like, amanda, you're always thinking. You forgot how to petcocks. Take note. Amanda's like, okay, who wants to sleep in the bed with me tonight?
B
Kyle. Oh. So now people come over. We get another 20 minutes of hellos while the donkeys come. And Daffy the donkey, winner of the episode, just making its rounds. And Carl, we see Carl flirting. He's like, oh, yeah. Hey, what'd you guys do today? I had a pretty good day. I was in the mix. Basically ran eight miles today. So would you guys. I'm at a party. Okay. Hear about your eight miles. Are you Eminem?
A
Quiet. Yeah, I'm Eminem. Oh, she gotta lose herself moment, y'.
B
All.
A
So, Bailey, Carl, I'm Levi and Bailey are playing, like, the Hammer slam game. You know, where you take the mallet and they can barely get the thing to go up, like, two feet. Carl's like, hold on, girls. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Okay, well, now that I'm in the mix, let me just show you how hard I can hit this. And so he, like, whales that hammer down on the thing and the and the. The. The disc goes flying up, and it hits the bell, and it gets lodged in the bell, and, like, oh, my God, Carl. Whoa.
B
I don't know my own strength.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
He's back. He's back, guys.
A
Y.
B
So now Sierra and Jesse are talking. Sorry, what you say, with great power.
A
Comes great responsibility, and I have a responsibility to find someone to help fix this. Sorry, everyone.
B
Oh, let me go to step stool. And now we go to Sierra and Jesse, and they're talking about the party. And she's like, I mean, the party. The party's great. And, like, the animals are amazing. Like, I secretly think that, like, west got these animals as some sort of, like, apology to me. He's like, yeah, he literally said that to me last night. So he did do that.
A
She's like, are you with joking with me? He's like, yeah, well, intentional or not, it's a great peace offering. He's like, yeah, it's great. It's a new summer, man. When you're in a house with a musician, a donkey, some models. Let's have fun, man. She's like.
B
She's like, yeah, I.
A
With daffy.
B
So, yeah. So now Kyle's talking to some friends, and they're like, so, how's your summer going? You've been DJing a lot, right? Kyle's like, yeah, I mean, it's a good outlet for stress because the matter doesn't even listen to me. And, like, we're so opposite. She never even makes it up for it. I hate talking about it. Oh, my gosh.
A
I know. It's like, okay, Ben and Amanda are throwing footballs. They're doing, like, a carnival game, like, throwing footballs to try to get through a hole. And they're being very flirty, etc. And Bailey joins, and she's like, have you guys ever been a sharehouse before? And do you know if sweet green is available via delivery here? Because I need to start replacing it with good memories. And Ben's like, well, so I've stayed in, like, a Hostel with, like, 400, 000 people in bunk beds. So, like, a shareheads for me is just like, no, no problem. Like, what are you talking about? Someone try to flex that. Like, okay, you traveled in hostels and backpacked, so, man, to say you stayed.
B
In a lot of hostels while we're really setting the bar low on. On summer house.
A
Well, he's trying to do the thing of, like, yeah, I've traveled the world, man. You know? So Amanda's like, okay, and you're Single. And do you have a tight. Funny is like. Like, funny is the most important thing to me because, like, we're gonna get, like, ugly, and we're gonna get old, and if you're not funny, I'm gonna get so bored. So if it's really important for you to be funny, you know, Amanda's like, I wasn't asking on your behalf. Bailey, if he's single, I'm not setting you two together.
B
Yeah, well, I don't. I look at the eyes. Eyes don't get old. As I'm, like, putting drops in mine to see better, hoping that I can see a little bit better.
A
Have you seen pictures of Scott Glenn recently?
B
Have you seen Michael Darby? So Amanda's like, oh, my God. Speaking of eyes, you guys have the same colors of eyes. And baby's like, oh, my God. I was like, can he stop staring at me with those crystal blue Australian eyes? I'm just like, whoa. Oh, God. Keep talking your Australian accent. Just say whatever you want. I don't care. Just say ed. God, your eyes. Say with your eyes. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
A
Oh, my God. There's a great white shark in your eyes. How'd that happen? She's Australian. It's what we do.
B
So now Bailey goes over to Levi, and she's like, oh, my God. I was having a conversation with Australian Matthew McConaughey over there. God, I can never talk to him again. I'm physically in love. Like, oh, my God. Look at that man.
A
Look at him. So Kyle does a keg stand that goes on for over 30 seconds. And Sierra and Amanda are talking, and Sierra's like, it's kind of weird. Our first party without Pedro. Lindsay. Yeah. KJ was making eggs, and I was like, oh, there's bacon in the fridge. And he was like, I don't know how to make bacon. Sierra goes, lindsay knows how to make bacon. Like, you know who else knows how to make bacon? YouTube. It's really not that hard to figure out. It's like, put it in a pan and let it go.
B
Yeah. So now they FaceTime Lindsay and Gemma, and they're like, we miss you. You know how to make bacon. She's like, oh, my God, I miss you guys so much. Like, what's this school?
A
Sierra's like, the new guys. Well, you would dominate. You would dominate. Like, oh, my God, I want to come out. I'll sleep and cuddle with whoever. It's, like, been a while. I'm, like, so desperate.
B
Me and you can sleep together, and we can make Kyle sleep somewhere else. Cut to Kyle still doing a gag stand. Love. Kyle's like, I'm in trouble for partying too much. I'm going to do a 20 minute gag stand.
A
And then Lindsay shows that there's like. She's like, look at this broken fan. Like, Gemma just broke it. She's like, so strong. Like, I can't believe she broke my fan.
B
She must have gotten that from her almost father because, oh, I just broke the ding bell. I just broke it.
A
Oh, wow. Such parallels happening here. Wow. Samantha's like, wow, she seems so happy. It's crazy. Like, that baby changed her life. Like, wow. Lindsay and Sierra's like, do you want to have babies? Like, eventually, once I find the right guy. But, like, I feel like the last five years I've, like, lost myself and I just really feel like, you know, feel, feeling. I'm finally feeling good, and I just don't want to embrace it for. I mean, I do want to embrace feeling good for a little bit. I just don't want to embrace a baby with Kyle ever. So no commercial. Here comes one right now.
B
So Carl checks in with Kyle and he's like, yeah, thanks for. Thanks for asking. I'm not well. Well, hey, you know, a lot of truth is said and just, you know, Amanda seems to be good overall. I mean, she's nice to us. Like, she's happier. She seems solid. You know what I mean? But, you know, like, in this past few months, it seems like you guys are, like, drifting. That's not good. And I feel responsibility to help because I officiated your wedding, by the way. You're welcome for that. Are you happy? Like, oh, I'm happy showing people a good time. I'm like, pressing play.
A
I just sort of feel like, you know, as someone who spent $20 to get officiated to get a officiant license online, I just felt like it's my obligation to put that $20 to good use. So I just want to make sure you guys stay together for the rest of your lives. Okay.
B
Wow.
A
Where I'm happy is showing people a good time and, like, pressing play. Like, oh, my God, that's the best pressing play. So, yo, because you're getting attention, right? Therapist Carl's here. Don't worry, I can help.
B
Oh, my God. He's talking to Carl. Do you think he's bitching about me? 110, you've done nothing but about him. Of course he's over there bitching about you. Yeah, I'm not even happy enough that you Guys are getting divorced. You need to divorce. Like, today at this county fair. I want Daffy to be the judge in your divorce.
A
Proceed.
B
Just do it. Do it now. You're killing me.
A
Please, please do it. But. So Sierra's like, well, here's the thing. Obviously, like, I don't have the best relationship with my dad, but I asked my mom, like, with this when she was dating, I was like, did you ever think about how this person would be as a father? And she was like, well, I assumed that everyone would be like, my dad was present and around. And I like, can't imagine how you feel because he's like, somewhere every other night. I guess what I'm trying to say is, like, he's already absent before the kid is here. So I'll let you finish the thought for me, Amanda.
B
Yeah. So she goes on about he's always out, he's always drinking, and then the whole Internet's rooting for their divorce. And she's like, yeah, the whole Internet's like, leave him, leave him. And then it's all I hear all the time. And then when somebody tells you to do something so many times, you know, finally you start to believe it. And I'm like at a point now where I don't even know, like, is it my thoughts thoughts or is it the Internet's thoughts? I was sham wowing the other day and really thinking deeply on this. Couldn't figure it out.
A
She was like, I, I don't know, I just love thinking about it.
B
But I spun a wheel and I got a hundred dollars off a 300 purchase. And so I played again and I bought a few pairs of jogging pants I didn't really need and really tried to contemplate it.
A
I went to McDonald's and I ordered a cheeseburger and I thought, I can has cheeseburger, but was I thinking that or was that the Internet?
B
Is Tom single? It's like early, early Internet.
A
Super early Internet. I was thinking, I was. I was thumping grapes and I fell over and I was going. But was I saying that it was the Internet saying that?
B
She's like, yeah, so you know, it's like, I'm just not sure if I'm just listening to the Internet. Why are you elbow dancing? I'm sorry.
A
I learned this.
B
It's like doing a tick tock dance.
A
She's like. And I was trying to tell Kyle this over FaceTime, but then two little baby girls came walking in behind me. And I was like, is this happening or is this just an Internet moment? So.
B
So Carl's like, oh, do you think she's happy? No. Why would you even need to ask that? We know everybody within a five mile radius knows Amanda is not happy. I was like, I don't know what's gonna make her happy. I don't know if I can do it. I mean, when I actually say it out loud, it becomes more real. And that scares me. That scares me.
A
So scary. So now party time. Lots of stuff is happening. KJ does a cannonball. Look. That's KJ getting wild, everyone. He put his hat backwards. And then Jesse and Wes are sitting down. And Wes, like, can I get a vibe, Jack? Jesse's like, I'm loving Sierra's energy. Ah. Just not just for YouTube, but like, she also seems to be so happy and chill. It's like, yeah, like when I get the animals got here, I went upstairs, I was like, can I be a bedbug now because I got you animals?
B
Yeah.
A
She was really excited about that.
B
Yeah. And he said, yeah, she thinks that you did it to make peace with her. He's like, wow, she said that to you? Wow. It makes me feel like I'm home again. So he says that he's learned to not expect too much, but he's not going to let it crush him this year if Sierra hates him still. And that's his plan for the year. And so they're talking about the new girls and they really like her. And he goes, yeah, that Levi girl's really fun. He's like, yeah, she's funny. She's wearing a corn hat and she's lying down and letting goats eat from her body, bro. I mean, that's. That's incredible. And then we see it happening.
A
Yeah, I like that for Levi. I love her. I love that, that she's like, I would rather have this goat, like, walk all over my body than talk to any of the douchebags in this house.
B
I wonder what Carl's talking about.
A
Guess what?
B
I'm running a marathon. Yeah, I've been training. I run eight miles today. Yeah, pretty much.
A
That's right. Yeah. Hey, I'm ready to pie people in the face. And by pie people, I mean run a little bit longer than they're going to run today because I'm running for a marathon. Oh, it's a marathon pie.
B
That's what they do. They start ping each other. Everybody gets pies in the faces and they jump in the pool. And Amanda's wearing this, like, nude colored bra. And so everyone's cheering for Amanda when she Jumps in the pool. They're like, your boobs are amazing. And then the party's over, but Amanda's coming out. She's like, can I get a towel? And. And Ben, the hottie. Ben brings her one. And Kyle's like, oh, Amanda, you went naked. You were naked in the bull, Amanda. It's like, well, we were all in the bowl together, Kyle. I wasn't naked. Kyle, you were the first one to pull your dick out publicly every single year. Really?
A
Every year?
B
And a dick every year? A dick is weirder to pull out than a boob. We all eat from boobs as babies. Well, most of us.
A
We've seen Kyle's ask so many times on this show. And then Amanda's. But. But on top of that, by the way, Amanda was clothed anyway. It's absurd. And she's like. She's like, why are you mad? She's like, that just. That would have been fun if you, like, told me you were going to get in this. Get skinny dipping. It's like, wait, when was Amanda now has to run it by you that she's going to go skinny dipping? No, no, no. When you've been absent this entire, like, the entire past six months. No, no.
B
And Carl's been pulling off his clothes on. Running around naked on this show for years. A Dec boy is really mad, which is that she was, in his mind, skinny dipping again with Ben, who's this hot eligible man who's like, more than willing to take Amanda off of his hands. And he's seeing it happen right in front of his face and he's like, oh.
A
Yep. So Amanda's like, we were all in the pool together, Kyle. And he's like. And Jesse is just like, kyle, you can get naked too. It's like, no, Jesse, you're the worst mediator I've ever met in my life. Kyle, we were all in the pool. No, you were the only one who was topless. She's like, but I'm not topless, Lucy. I've got a bra on.
B
Oh, yeesh. Yikes. Well, this is going down in flames. At least we know that there's an end. Because one thing that makes me crazy on this show is the endless Kyle and Amanda fighting. And back and forth. It's endless. And finally in year 10. But of course, then they're probably all off the show this year because they're going to the city, their new show. So ten solid years of these two fighting. So Jesus shot up. Just shot up. So at least we know there's an End in sight.
A
Plus those.
B
Yeah, it's.
A
It feels great that we don't have to like, rev up our usual thing, which is to say, why don't you leave like one of you guys leave, like Amanda, leave him already. Or Kyle, go pursue your dreams with. With someone who is going to be more interested in that kind of lifestyle. And it's great because we don't have to do that. We can just.

Date: February 4, 2026
Hosts: Ben Mandelker & Ronnie Karam
In this lively episode, Ben and Ronnie continue their witty, affectionate — and at times eviscerating — recap of Summer House Season 10, Episode 1 (Part 2). The theme is marital discord and personal reinvention, with a spotlight on Kyle and Amanda’s crumbling relationship set against the party-fueled chaos of the Summer House and the introduction of new cast members. The hosts mix biting humor, deep Bravo insight, and their signature banter, dissecting everything from DJ dreams to goat petting at a house party.
| Timestamp | Quote / Moment | Speaker | |-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------| | 00:42 | “I found out after. Like, you didn’t come loud, clean...” | New cast member (ref, Carl's table) | | 02:03 | “I want to start my own business...he wanted to be a DJ despite me.” | Ben (paraphrasing Amanda) | | 04:10 | “He’s just giving himself a reason to go do, you know...” | Ronnie | | 06:54 | “He needs to find a party person. Amanda wants to sit on the couch.” | Ronnie | | 14:22 | “I used to call him...I’d just be sobbing and I couldn’t sleep until he got home. And now, I don’t even care what he’s doing.” | Amanda (via Ben) | | 19:28 | “We ended up me, the bride, and Ben skinny dipping in the pool...” | Amanda | | 18:58 | “Put some shrimp on the bar...Kangaroos, wallabies, dingoes...” | Ben (the hosts riffing) | | 23:21 | “...just isn’t aligned with what, like, should be going on in his life. Which is, like, really committing to his wife and...getting back into...good foundation...” | Carl | | 35:21 | “Is it my thoughts or is it the Internet’s thoughts?” | Amanda | | 40:14 | “A dick is weirder to pull out than a boob. We all eat from boobs as babies. Most of us.” | Ronnie | | 40:59 | “At least we know there’s an end...the endless Kyle and Amanda fighting...ten solid years of these two fighting.” | Ronnie |
Ben and Ronnie blend sarcasm, Bravo-nerd references, and genuine concern as they dissect another cycle in the Kyle/Amanda drama. Their tone is at once mocking and empathic, rooting for better outcomes, amused by the cyclical disasters, and thrilled to finally witness real change after a decade of the couple’s fighting. The arrival of new cast members — especially Ben — brings fresh energy, comedic crushes, and classic Summer House antics. The episode offers catharsis for listeners worn down by years of Kyle and Amanda’s saga, promising an imminent end — and, as always, plenty of laughs along the way.
