The Valley. I just finished watching the Valley. Oh, it's misery. It's just pure. I mean, just hobble me already for something that I wrote. It is like misery. Oh, my God.

B
Oh, yeah. Well, that's tomorrow. Today is. You know, I don't know if you've heard of a little company called Summer called Love Boy, but it's. It's a company and they sell drinks. Get out. And guys, I hope that you support Lover Boy, okay? Please, no matter what you take from today's recap, please support Lover Boy. All right. It's lover boy day on in the city. We need to promote Lover Boy. Let's get a trolley, drive around. I want to push the trolley off the road. I want to push it. Sick of your drink? Okay. Get rid of it. Sick of it. I've had it.
A
So we as everyone's doing stuff around the city. Kyle is walking Ryder and Reese, which could sound like two gay porn stars, but they're actually his dogs. And then Amanda is right. Doesn't it feel like this guy? I think I'm actually, there's got star. I'm sure there was someone named Reese Ryder or writer Reese. I guarantee Reese Ryder.
B
Gay porn videos. Hold on. I see Reese Ryder's gay porn videos. Is this real? Okay, I'm pulling up pornhub if something autoplay. Oh, I'm in Texas, so I have to do a ID check.
A
Reese Rider. I Don't know, but it just. It's just. You just the. It's just. It's too gay. Porn coded.
B
Free Spider is a gay porn star. That is hilarious.
A
It has to be. Well, there was a porn star named Reese. Wasn't there a porn star named Reese Ride out back in, like, the 2000s.
B
There's Chloe, Reese Rider, and there's Reese Rider, gay porn star. So there you go. He's on boyfriend tv, in case anybody wants to know. Just looked it up.
A
There you go. So there's a Reese rideout and a Reese Rider. Wow, that's pretty funny. And they're both also encapsulated by Kyle's dogs. Then we go to Midtown, where Amanda is. She's trying on, I guess, testing out a prototype for her. Her swimwear that we've been waiting to see for all this time. And she has named it the Sierra Top. So we need some rebranding probably.
B
Like, should we just, like, keep the title the Sierra Top? I mean, it's just. It's the same fit. We're just adding different details, like a different man on its arm. You know, we're gone. I'm just gonna just cut the man off the arm, put it on my arm, and let's just refit the whole thing.
A
So it's like Jacqueline just out of work or she's just too busy. Does she have too many gigs? Because last I checked, there is a fit model that needs to be fitted. Okay. Why is Amanda doing this? This should be a. This is Jacqueline's comeback scene.
B
Yeah. And Amanda goes, yeah, I'll have to find new friends to make my. To name my pieces after. Yeah. You really. You really.
A
This. Please. It's. Yeah, it's rough. Now Union Square, Lindsay is out and about with Gemma. She's like, are you ready?
B
We're gonna go ride a bike.
A
But you're not gonna really ride it. You're gonna, like, pedal like that. Flintstones. You know, Gemma's like, I don't even know what you're talking about.
B
I'm talking the Flintstones. Yeah. Out of here.
A
I just mastered putting the little rings on the pegs. Okay, mom, don't give me a bicycle.
B
Yeah, and it's an influencing event where Lindsay is, you know, a baby, a mommy influencer now. So Gemma's out there literally pedaling. She's out there peddling already on Instagram. Good for her. You know, I've always said you should only have babies if you're willing to put them to work. And here. Here it is. I Love to see it in action.
A
So Lindsay, she's gets. She puts gem on this little bike, and it was like a photo shoot, and. And she's like, I'm hired by this brand to promote the launch of a new brand by a little baby bike. A little sir. And. Okay, I know you guys love to put on my lower third influencer. And they put influencer under Lindsay's name. She's like. She's like, I'm so much more than that. I'm an influencer. I'm a milf. I'm Gemma's mom. I do more than just, like, one thing.
B
Oh, Lindsay's faux humility. You know, she. Remember when she wanted to be an influencer so bad, and Paige and them were like, not influencer. She's like, yes, I can be. I thought it was, like, an actual thing. And now she's like, oh, well, you just call me an influencer. I'm also a Melbourne.
A
Well, I guess if Jessica Tandy were alive, she'd need someone to tell her what to buy, so. Sure. Go for it, Lindsay.
B
You know, people do often forget to take their Activia. So I. I was really worried for the baby on this bike. I was like, baby shouldn't be on bikes. Am I the only one? It was like, no, bikes are not for babies. Now this is like a leaning bike where you put the baby on the thing, and they're kind of leaning and learning to walk, which I get. But I was like, oh, no, no, no, no. I don't want to see any kids in the crosswalk on these goddamn bikes. I see it coming. Just little babies coming out everywhere on their bikes.
A
Soon it's gonna be like those baby lime scooters or baby bird scooters. Just babies on those little scooters just zooming around. But you know what? I do loves passing you.
B
You're like, that is dangerous. You're gonna break your neck.
A
I do love when parents put their babies in those flying saucer things, you know, where the baby. It's like this big circle around the baby and the baby, just like. Those are my favorite babies, and they just walk and they. It's like, oh, the walk. They're like little. Like little Saturn planets roaming around. That's.
B
Yeah, I like those, too.
A
Those are great.
B
Yeah, I really like those two. But those aren't dangerous because they can't fall off that thing, you know? Correct. They've got a whole circle around them and probably some Mac and cheese, you know, sludge or whatever the hell's on There.
A
They just are so funny when babies come around the corner with those things on. It's like seeing a hamster in a hamster ball.
B
It's just like, I love those too.
A
I love hamster balls. Except when they. The hamsters inevitably pee and poop in the ball.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
That's pretty gross.
B
Oh. So, okay. Lindsay is not only doing an influencer event for a baby, she's also made her friends come and called it brunch.
A
Yes.
B
She's like, all right, all right. Get it all done in one. In one scene. All right. We're going to brunch.
A
Enjoy it, Yvonne. Yvonne shows up, and she's like, oh, oh, this is. This. This is brunch. He's like, wow, why are you so dressed up? She's like. And Georgina goes, well, I told her we were having brunch. Mom's like, so there's no mimosas, so,
B
yeah, I thought we were gonna, like, have some kind of fun thing. I mean, I guess this is fun. And Georgina's like, there's some popcorn and carrot sticks over there.
A
I would throw Georgina out the window. So Yvonne's like, oh, this is different. Okay. And Georgina's like, well, welcome to what your Saturdays will look like. Ivana's like, no, well, I'm. Okay. Well, me and Nick, we did. We went out to dinner, and then the wine was flowing, and. Yeah. So, yeah, I need a snack right now, so someone help me out.
B
Oh, really? Well, wait till you have a baby, because you're gonna have to be a parent even when you're hungover when you have a baby. Trust me, it is something else. Today I caught my son trying to eat his poop, pull it out of his ear, shove it on a cat, start the cat on fire, twirl the cat around, throw it down the stairs, and then drive a car. I mean, being a mother this day and age, it's just crazy.
A
She literally says that she was hungover yesterday and her son wanted to put his poopy diaper back on. And she's like, well, he, like, didn't want the clean one. And she's like, well, I. I. I'm too hungover to argue with you right now. So she took chocolate and she's. She. She smeared chocolate on the. On the diaper and put it on her son. She's like. She goes. I'm thinking to myself, am I teaching him it's okay to wear poop all day? And then I decided, that's a problem for next week.
B
I mean, girl, you're teaching him that poop probably tastes good, you know.
A
Yeah, that's actually the worst problem.
B
Yeah. So back to present. Everyone's watching kids ride. Oh, they're watching her kid, Georgina's kid Robert ride around on the bike. And he's an all green. Like she said, he's obsessed with green. I cannot get this kid to stop wearing green. Green shoes, green pants, green shirt. So he is
A
earth tones. He's really into them.
B
He is all in green, you know?
A
Yeah. So she says, oh, I, you know. Yvonne says, well, I feel like that's good parenting, you know, like we're putting it all green. I mean, even though I'm not a parent. But, you know, that might change soon because Nick agreed that we can start trying to be parents. And Lindsay's like, let's go.
B
Yes.
A
So basically we see a flashback.
B
Sorry, I'm getting my water in.
A
I just looked up and you're in your toddler coated hyper jug. It's the same green.
B
You said green. I was like, I need something green. I'm gonna drink out of my hydro jug.
A
I was like, ronnie does not like that. They're starting to start for a baby.
B
Just don't put it on the bike.
A
Like, I don't like, I have nothing to say about it. No, I saw you were drinking. So basically Yvonne's like, so you raised our trying and it goes like. Yeah, it's like, okay, good luck. Good luck.
B
Sounds great. It's like, I'm so excited. Let's go. So Robert's crying. Georgina picks him up. She's like, oh, were they making fun of you for the green? I'm telling you. Nightmare.
A
Well, everyone, now we see and we, we see footage from around the city and then we just hear someone go, watch the fuck out. It's like, is Sue Simmons walking by this, this camera crew? But it's Kenny. Kenny is in Gothenburger and he's meeting up with Kyle. Everyone loves Kenny. Gosh, when he shows up on screen, it's just like a ray of sunshine.
B
Here he is, here's Kenny. So Carl's like, I ordered you a California Dreaming
A
LOL and a white wine. Kenny's like, okay, I don't know, did you get me like an album or something? He's like, well, I just came from the dentist, so I gotta watch my sauces. Which is funny because I too, everyone just came from the dentists, but I do not have to watch my sauces. So they cheers and Kenny's like, so I just want to understand, like, we had A conversation that day. And I said a lot of phenomenal things about Whitney. Like, she's boring, but kind of a fun boring but not that fun, but, like, kind of boring boring, but, like, I don't know, it's like, fun to look at her, but she's boring. And, like, I don't know if I even like her or love her. And she brought little wooden balls into my place. But, like, whatever. She has nice hair. I guess so. I mean. I mean, I don't know. Like, why didn't you leave with any of that stuff?
B
Yeah, it was. It was. You know, I just remember from that day, I left thinking, who is Spark Overall? And, like, why am I glad that Sparks and Recreation was canceled? I don't know. I just left thinking, there is no spark. No spark.
A
Relationships that spark overall. Oh, man, not this week. Not this. During this week of tough sitcom 80 sitcom news and the. Did you hear? Did you hear the mom on Elf died?
B
Is that true?
A
It's true.
B
Why are you with me? Why? You tell me. People died in the middle of recaps.
A
I'm sorry. Yeah, right before this, the little girl from the ring died, too.
B
For sake.
A
It's a tough week.
B
Jeez.
A
I'm sorry, all right? But I have to know these things.
B
Do we? In the middle of an in the city recap? To recap is hard enough. Okay? We just talked about Kyle and Amanda's breakup again for two hours, and now you're bringing me someone who probably knew Park Overall passing away.
A
They probably did some NBC promos together. I'm sure that Park Overall is very sad. And I think we have to pay tribute to the. The mom on Elf.
B
Oh, she was great.
A
Yeah.
B
Rip show. Sorry. Cats. Cats. Like, how dare you? So Kenny's like, okay, so the only takeaway was Kenny said, there's no spark. I mean, what the hell? And then I get everybody attacking me. We go out with all the friends, and they're attacking me. They're. They're. Get Kenny. I mean, first you've got Andrea. Scream Andrea Scre. No one yelled at you, you drama queen.
A
So delicate.
B
You are the one who went in pissed off at everybody. Stop. Nobody yelled at you.
A
Yeah, and then he's like. Then Georgina was saying something. And you see Georgina saying, like, stop with the spark. And Nick. And Nick is like, spark about his own girlfriend. And then I went over to get a drink, and guess what was there. It was a Sparklets water dispenser. I mean, I've had enough of it from everyone.
B
They're all coming at me. They were all closing in. And Carl's like, well, it's a big misunderstanding. When I mentioned the spark comment, you know, they were like, what do you mean no spark? And I was like, no, no, he doesn't mean no spark. Not no spark. I was trying to explain to him. It's like, you know. You know, when you pick up a pen, you're like, this is useful, but like, I don't want to fuck it. It's like that kind of thing.
A
Yeah, I just said, like, there was. Like, he was questioning if there was a spark. Like, maybe there was no spark at all. Or thought like, wow, I don't know. Do I want to spend the rest of my life with this very bland person? I don't know. Your words, not mine. He's like, I never said that. It's like, you know what? Like, future commitment, long term. Like, is this gonna work? Is this gonna work out? Kind of spark. Like, are we gonna get married? Kind of spark. That's. I was wondering, am I gonna even enjoy my first conversation with her? Like, I still haven't turned the corner about having fun in her presence kind of spark. That's it. Yeah.
B
He's like, yeah. I mean, what? Well, it's just like, do I want to marry her? Like, am I excited about marriage with this person? Yeah, that's still fucking offensive. Like, Whitney is probably. And of course we know Whitney's just like, see, it's totally into me.
A
Just explain to me, defending me, who
B
doesn't have a bark with a person who just taught America how to toast a piece of toast. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crappin's commercial. My mom is the queen of the bargain find. I mean, you can't even compliment the woman without finding out how much something costs. I was like, mom, I really love your new dress. She's like, it was $5. I got this as a bargain, and I found the new place to make her so happy. I've never seen her so thrilled. It's called whatnot.
A
You can go on to whatnot and, like, you can watch people sell things live and buy from it. That's the real magic of whatnot and why other apps really don't compare.
B
Yeah, it's real people, real conversations and incredible deals on whatnot. You're connecting with sellers and other shoppers. It's like hanging out with a group that gets you. It's a fun way to shop.

I have this gigantic patio deck thing that I wanted to use for parties and I could just not find any, any fashionable patio furniture. I needed a lot and I needed it to go together. I needed different pieces that all kind of looked the same. I was able to go on Wayfair and search for exactly what I needed. Different brands, different, different things all coming together in one style. It was so easy to do and it looks great.
A
I can confirm that his outdoor area looks great. And the thing is that you can get more than just seating. You can get grills, major appliances, storage, patio lighting, rugs, decorations. Wayfair really is your one stop shop for home.
B
And the best thing about this place, well, not the best, one of the best is that you don't even have to put this stuff together. You can hire somebody from Wayfair to come put it over, put it all together for you. You know, and that's the best part because if I put it together, it's rickety, it's falling apart no matter where it's from. I just don't have that skill. But they do.
A
Yeah, that is actually probably the part of Wayfair that I just tell my friends about just unsolicitedly. I just will say, like not only can you order the stuff, someone else can put it together for you. Patio season is here and these deals won't last. Head to Wayfair.com right now and get your outdoor space ready for way less. That's W A Y F A I r.com way fair.
B
Every style, every home.
A
Well, look, I'm kind of bored with what you're talking about, so I'm going to talk about me instead. So my problem with man is that there's really.
B
Yeah, yeah. I'm so sorry about that. Yeah, I get it. Amanda Sparkless.
A
God. Yeah.
B
Alone in the spark.
A
We're like roommates that aggravate each other right now. Like, dude, Amanda went from like, let me take a month or two off and find a month, month apartment to like, she just signed a lease. And Kenny's like, is she moving into my place? Please, not another woman. He's like, no, no, no. We found her own place. It's a one year lease. So Kyle's like.
B
And a real spark crystal over there. Yeah. Our problems, we don't have a spark. We're just like roommates. We aggravate each other. You know, like, she went from like, hey, maybe let's take a month or two off or I'll find a month to month apartment. She just signed a lease. It's like a year long. What the hell?
A
Yeah. I mean, we're creating separation, we're creating space. She's moving out, but we're not splitting up. Some people scratch their heads, like, what do you mean? What the hell's difference? For me, it's very clear. We're just going to be in separate spaces and not talk to each other and basically act like single people. But we won't be splitting up. It's, I mean, clear as pie. Yeah, duh.
B
I still processing it, basically. And Kenny's like, whoa, straight to a year lease. That sounds. Wow.
A
Sorry.
B
What?
A
I should ask Whitney if she wants to do that. Are you interested in signing a one year lease outside of my apartment?
B
Well, I'm 43. I don't believe, like, here I am, a 10 year relationship, we're on ground zero. I mean, basically feels like a. I
A
mean, square one is what you're looking for. But that's okay. Yeah. Round zero is something else. So then Kenny is like, well, I just moved in with a girl that I've got unbelievable spark with America. But I think that of course, like, you know, the course of. Of 6 months, 12 months, you can, you know, you can be in a significantly happier place. It doesn't matter how old you are. It matters how you. If you're genuinely happy like I am with my full of spark girlfriend. Whitney, are you convinced? Yeah.
B
I mean, look, you need to really find yourself outside of Amanda. You know, I mean, obviously you've got a personality, you've got a Persona. Look at that. This relationship's not the end of it all. Look at you. Look at you. You've got a reputation as a over the hill alcoholic dj. Go for it.
A
So now we go to Bye die financial district. We're at Clinton hall and it's one of those goofy places with like Big Jenga and Big Connect 4, et cetera. So Danielle and Owen and Nick and, and, and what's her face. What's Nick's. Yvonne? Is it Yvonne? Yeah, why? I'm still working on the name.
B
How dare you. It's literally written down on the page. How dare you.
A
They're getting ready to play. I'm just trying to memorize the entire episode. I was like, I. I memorized almost every line of the Inn the City last night. Damn it.
B
I watched it five times just to get every detail.
A
So Yvonne, Yvonne. Like, I love Yvonne, but for some reason I cannot remember her name. And she's like one of my favorite newbies. Just because she seems.
B
I'm having that problem on Love Island. Actually, of all the I've watched. I mean, it's on every day for like an hour and a half and I've watched every episode and I'm like, whenever you tell me about someone, you're like, so and so said this. I'm like, who? Who the fuck is that? I don't know what it is.
A
They are. But for those wondering, they are still opening up and reading letters on Love island five hours later. Oh, my God.
B
Jesus Christ. From the moment people have written in their entire lives, I'm surprised it wasn't just like little stick figure pictures, like cave drawings, you know?
A
I know. Oh, my God. When you first walked into the villa, you were so hot. I thought, damn, I like you.
B
Like, okay, our relationship has come. So it's been a week. It has been a week. Okay, so anyway, we're. We're here with. Speaking of. It's been a week. We're here with Danielle's relationship with Owen. So Yvonne and Danielle are getting along and they're like, don't you think this might be a problem, Yvonne? That you're hanging out with someone Lindsay hates? And she's like, oh, well, you know, I've never had beef with Danielle. She was like one of Lindsay's friends. So I've always been nice to her and I'm always team Lindsay. But I mean, Lindsay seems to have moved past everything, so, you know, And Nick really likes Owen, so why not? Oh, you'll see.
A
Danger. Danger alert. When she. When they started the season, like, we're best friends and we've been best friends for 15 years. I was like, this friendship is over. And now we see here it is. Exciting incident right now. So they are. They're hanging out, having dinner or eating food, and Nick is asking how things are with Lindsay, and Danielle says, you know, I think it's. You know, I think they're good. I think they're good. But, like, we're baby stepping into the future, and I hope that we can continue that sort of path and try to repair, you know, what was damaged. I'm sorry, I just want to interrupt that. We no longer do baby steps. We do baby reps with the bicycle.
B
We are doing baby trikes. Okay? Baby tracking.
A
Only baby bells on.
B
And she's like, you know, I was just, like, trying to repair what was damaged. And Nick's like, so you guys are good? I'm sorry. You can hear me, right? Is my face moving? No, Nick is still not moving. Damn it. Okay, go ahead. Carry on.
A
So then it's like they're saying, we just. Anyway, they're. They're say everything's good. And no one's like, this is great, Knowles. Nick's like, okay, cool. Well, I guess. You know what we should do? We should all go to Mexico together. Because I heard that that's what they said on the Valley. So I think we're supposed to do the same thing, right? They got some chairs there I can fix.
B
Go to Mexico together and all. We'll bring our newborns. So they're like, yeah, let's go. And it goes, oh, yeah, that's the only country or actually married. And we see a flashback of them telling people, no, they're not really married, not New York, never filed the paperwork. It's a Bravo thing. Do people really do this all the time, just not file their paperwork? So weird.
A
So I think. So that happened to a friend of mine that her. Her new husband didn't file the paperwork. And then about two months later, he left her. So I think he had that plan all along, if you ask me. So now anytime, anytime, there's like, oops, forgot to file the paperwork. I'm like, this person does not want to deal with divorce. So they're just gonna go through this because they got in too deep with the wedding. They don't want to disappoint their family and friends. They're gonna give it eight weeks, and they're out of there. Oh, yeah. But in this case, it actually worked out.
B
If I get married, I want a sticker like, you get one when you vote. Why wouldn't you get one when you're married. I need like an official ship from the government. Like, you did this. Ronnie did it. Put it on the bumper sticker now
A
just married and it's official from the government. Yeah, so they. Anyway, the point, they actually had like a big, big ass wedding in Mexico. We see footage of it. There was fireworks and everything. And then Nick is like, but we, after we got back from our honeymoon, you know, life resumed. You know, I saw a wasilly chair. I was like, I've got to. I've got to fix it. So it's like whenever we schedule it, there are just some big things to work on. I mean, some event or whatever just got a little away from us, you know?
B
Yeah, but they're going to city hall next week, guys, so don't worry about it. And Yvonne's like, yeah, because I guess relationship has no meaning unless you go to court, right? Listen, it doesn't matter for marriage. It matters for divorce though. And that's a really important step to consider in your marriage process.
A
That's a great transition into Danielle and Owen's issues, which is that his divorce is not finalized yet. It's still with the lawyers. The wife is in New York, which, which makes it easier. And Yvonne's like, have you guys ever had any close encounters? He's like, what's with aliens? I mean, no, but I did see disclosure date. No, I'm talking about with your ex. And Danielle's like, no, we haven't. But at the same time, people break up and they go through divorces and unfortunately it's like not uncommon that that people do this. It's just like sometimes I think that it's like made to be like so much worse by people. Like, like, you know, sometimes there just people out there that'll say things like, are you with a married man right now? Cut to Daniel, the article.
B
Daniel's a home wrecker. And she's like. I mean like, people are like talking like you're a home wrecker and all this stuff. And like, I can't help but cry because like, just for the first time, I'm just like so happy and content in my life, you know? And like, I've never been married, but I've really happy with a married man. And shouldn't that count for something?
A
So she's tearing up and Yvonne's like, well, I'd give you my napkin, but it's really dirty. Unless you want ketchup in your eyeballs. No, it's okay.
B
Maybe I'll just take another shot. And so Danielle or Yvonne's like, you're not doing anything wrong. It's not like you met him when he was still with somebody, right? She's like, I mean, like. I mean, it's just harmful when those. Those words are like that on the Internet.
A
And Nick's like, well, even. Even if you know, it's. It still has no effect on you, right? It's so. I mean, it still has an effect on you, right? And Owen's like, yes, of course. So Daniel's like, it just sucks. I want to be celebrating this. You know, it's like, okay, cool. So now we go to NoHo, and Whitney and Kenny are on a run, and she hates it. She's like, I don't want to do this again. I don't like running in traffic. I'm gonna get hit. Look, I'm very hittable by a car. Please, do I have to do this anymore?
B
This is also a Valley storyline. It's very reminiscent of Michelle dating that guy who broke up with her because she didn't like to work out enough. And Whitney's really trying. She's like, okay, I'll go running. I really hate this. Like, come on, come on. She's like, this was a bad idea. Oh, my God. You're not gonna get me to run again. This is miserable. I don't even remember the last time I ran.
A
So they're running, and he doesn't care. He doesn't give a. Like, she is there to fit into his life, and he is not there to accommodate her. So, yeah, so he's like, okay, okay. Hey, by the way, this PI Is supposed to call me. I was like, what? So he has hired a private investigator because he now wants to track down his dad because he's on a TV show now.
B
It's just why? Like, I want to feel for somebody looking for their dad, but you do it like the second week of shooting your reality show. Come on. I don't. Yeah, not buying it. So he's saying that, yeah, it's important to find his dad after his mom passed. And he's had this feeling like he needs to track down his dad. And so, yeah, he calls a private investigator. So he's like, okay, you came highly recommended in terms of someone that could help me with my search to find my father. I don't even know if he's still alive. And the guy's like, okay, well, I can analyze that and let you know what the probability would be. What does that mean? I'm giving you. Can you find the man or not. What is the probability?
A
I know. So he talks about how, like, used to go visit his dad every summer in London, which is kind of cool, that his dad is British. I like that. But he would go visit his dad in London, and then he was, like, 13 or 14 years old, and he would just. He would spend, like, weeks there was. And he just. He just. Kenny had resentment that his dad had a new family and everything. And he's just like, why am I doing this? And his mom was like, you don't have to go anymore. So he stopped going. But then he also fell out of contact with his dad. And so he hasn't seen his dad for 25 years.
B
Yeah. And so he has a lot of drama about this. I mean, it's. It's just. It's just the timing, I guess, for me. So then the PI Is like, okay, well, okay. I can tell you right now, for $500, there's about a 30% chance you've got a dad. Well, no, actually, I have a dad. I just want you to find my. All right. 35. 35%. All right, check. Clear. I'll call you in two weeks. All right. Hey.
A
This is a private investigator, Dan Rubik. Yeah. Of the Cube. That was me. So I did locate your half brother's son. And. And he says that his lizard is cute. So if you wanted a lizard update, there's that. Also, I do have some information about your dad. So his name is Larry Martin. Did you think that. Were you playing a joke on me? Larry Martin? You think. You think I could just, like, find somebody in Larry? He has two first names. What is wrong with you? I'm a PI but I'm not a genie.
B
I have found about 900 Larry Martins, but I've only found three race rideouts. Two of them made me come. Probably 500 more dollars. Thank you.
A
You really now? Okay, we. I do. But the good news is we found your father. Turns out he had a popular sitcom in the 90s, and he had a movie franchise with Will Smith. People, congratulations. Your father is a celebrity. He's like, my dad is not Martin Lawrence. His name is Larry Martin.
B
Oh.
A
I'll be right back.
B
So he does not know Sineady. He does not.
A
What about the guy from upstairs?
B
Really funny, funny stuff.
A
Did you know that the bad guy from White Lotus was actually a side character on your dad's show? It's not my dad. It's not my dad. Larry.
B
No. That's not my dad.
A
Well, these results are very disappointing, and I Only have one thing to say. Damn.
B
Gina. Damn. Did your father have a brother named Mo? No. Did he have a brother named Curly? No. Damn it. Thought I found him.
A
Wait a second. We got a ping. We found your dad. Okay, this one's for real. Your dad. Okay, you said he was British. He is British. He's a gay man living in West Hollywood who's into design. It's like, it's not Martin Lawrence Ballard.
B
Oh, yeah, that did seem like a
A
far fetched one now that you say it. I. It doesn't quite make sense.
B
Okay, so he's like, all right, well, I searched England and the US it should move pretty quickly. Okay. A few days, we'll have some results for you. Okay. And it is a hundred percent ice cream. What are you doing? DNA test. I just ran a DNA test and this ice cream is delicious. Tell you that.
A
Mushy pea flavored, that's what you get. What can I say?
B
If anyone's like, isn't this over? I really thought it was over. That's why. But like, I was scrolling and the scene's still going. So Whitney's like, well, I mean, I don't know. It sounds like he's alive, but I guess we still don't really know. And he's like, well, maybe he's just being optimistic. She's like, it's unclear, but like, if he hasn't found him specifically, maybe he doesn't know.
A
That's usually what happens when someone doesn't find something specifically. If he doesn't have the answers, then maybe he doesn't know. So we go back to the financial district, and there is a trolley car there, and Kyle is loading up with lover boy stuff. And there's this guy named Daniel who is driving the trolley. Imagine if that was Larry Martin himself.
B
Larry Martin. Larry Martin's like, hey, Larry Martin here. Did you know that ice cream has DNA? A B? I just wanted to tell you, trolleys are even more popular than lover boy. Can we just give it up now? Thanks.
A
Hold on a second, everyone. I keep getting this phone call from. It says the Rubik's Cube Corporation. I don't know what that even means.
B
Busy. So it's a. It's a brand appreciation day. Kyle is going to go literally door to door to try and sell lover boy to bars.
A
Yeah.
B
And he's like, hey, hey, hey, you're a guy driving the trolley. What's your name? Oh, Daniel. Hey, you heard a lover boy? He's like, nah, I can't say I've heard a Lover boy.
A
I don't know what it is. So it's like, yeah, we're just representing the work hard, play hard lifestyle. Right? So then Amanda comes on. I mean, Amanda's actually already on the. On the trolley, and she's dealing with balloons that are giving her hair lots of static cling, which felt like a nice moment of universe. The universe giving it back to Amanda a little bit. Like, it'll get static cling. So they basically, he's. He's talking about how, like, they started off with doing lots of guerrilla marketing, you know, samples, meet and greets, all that stuff. And he's gonna get back to the roots of. Okay, he's gonna, like, get all his friends on this trolley, and they're gonna hand out merch. They're just gonna throw hats at people on the street, and it's gonna land on the street, and then people getting
B
back to the rooster. Lover boy.
C
All right.
B
It's a brand about drinking with your friends and having fun and saying, why did this cost $9? What is Monk fruit? Why is it in my drink? So, yeah, we're gonna be doing that today, and, you know, we're gonna remind Amanda and Kenny who's an investor. Thanks, buddy. And everybody else, they're still avoiding this industry, and we will fill it quite nicely. All right.
A
Meanwhile, Amanda's like, I have so much going on in my life. I have to pack. I'm moving. I'm making huge changes, but I want to make this relationship work. Amanda, you have been packing for, like, four weeks on this show. At this point, just call someone, okay, you're wealthy. Just have someone pack it up for you.
B
Amanda's whole reframing of I'm leaving to help this relationship is hilarious. I mean, especially knowing what we know now, but that she's patting herself on the back. She's like, I've been so busy packing to save this relationship. You're leaving the relationship.
A
And then she tries to spin a sign, and she can't, and she goes, ow. Why can't I spin this? Physics is just working against her. Between that hair and this sign. Like, yeah, go. Let's go.
B
So people start arriving, and Gavin comes, and he's like, when Kyle ass. I show up. I was thinking a party bus, not an old janky trolley that looks like it might break down any moment. But I'm here. Gavin is low key. My favorite one on the show. I like that he's so messy. So messy, but also, like, so nice. He was, like, so nice to everybody, but he also Calls everybody on their ball. He's like, wow, lover boy, that's still around. Hilarious. Okay, wow. Are we gonna be going around a ghost town? Because that's basically like, your drink. Okay. Your drink is the. It's a ghost town in a camp.
A
So fun.
B
Thanks for inviting me.
A
He can say whatever he wants because he knows they have to be nice to him so they can get, like, free drinks at his bar. So he just. He could. That's why he's Richard Dawsoning Whitney all the time and all the other women. So Lindsay is like, oh, my God, is this like a trolley from the 70s? Like, what the hell? I'm a bicycle. I'm a baby bicycle influencer. And I'm not allowed to be in other vehicles. So unfortunately, we have to sit this one out. Sorry.
B
So, Kenny, Whitney, come. And Whitney's like, I mean, to get through this day, I feel like I'm gonna need some lover boys. And we see a flashback to Whitney and Kenny on a park bench two days ago. And Whitney going. I mean, Gavin, like, called me, like, fucking, like, boring and vanilla and that I wasn't exciting enough for you. And Kenny's like, what?
A
You're not.
B
You're not boring.
A
I know I'm not because remember when I brought those wooden balls for your bookshelf? I mean, does a boring person do that? Are you awake?
B
On the trolley? On the trolley. Whitney's like, I don't look good in hats. And Gavin goes, no, it actually work. She can't even tell how small your head is.
A
That was like an old school Rooney Barb right there. Long live Gavin. So Kenny's like, yeah, well, I kind of expected a bunch of apologies right out the gate from Gavin, and there was nothing. No apologies. Because, you know, Gavin last episode ended it with him being like, yeah, I think that maybe. When, when, when. Now that I know that you actually said there was no spark, I think it's because she's just boring as hell. I see it now. I see you really are very boring. And I mean that. Like, you're exciting, but you're boring.
B
Wow, Whitney, you are. I would. I would pick up the check, but honestly, I want to order another side of toast just so I have something more interesting to talk to than you.
A
Okay, good.
B
Good to see you.
A
I know how to make that. I know how to make toast. So then we go like, where's Georgina? So Georgina is not at the bar crawl thing because she's a doctor. She is working. She.
B
And she says scrotox is where you put Botox in a scrotum to make it smooth. I don't know how I would react to a smooth scrotum. Like, if I. If someone was like, here's my scrotum. It's smooth. A big whoa, holy almost a face.
A
I bet. I bet I. I bet I know one person who knows about screw talks. Reese Rideout.
B
So.
A
And Reese Rider.
B
But I also, like, not the day to have your kids at work. You know what I mean? I don't want to be getting screw talks and have your kids running around the office screaming and yelling like, my balls. My balls are out. Okay.
A
Yeah. And those kids are like, zombie apocalypse. Because, like, there's like, a frosted glass door, and you just see these hands on the glass door, like, let us in. Yeah.
B
Yeah.
A
I wouldn't be so. Yeah. Back to the trolley. Andrea said, lover boy. And they're all having fun, and they're, like, yelling out to people, being like, you want lover boy? And they're throwing, like, merch at them. And I. I was kind of grossed out by the hat that, like, wound up on the sidewalk and someone picked it up and put it on the red
B
breeze.
A
Free New York City sidewalks. Yeah.
B
Yeah. They throw a hat at someone, they're like, enough. Give it up. Just give it up. Stop.
A
Andrew Hats highlighted the episode. Andrea changes his shirt, so he's shirtless for a moment. Everyone's like, oh, my God, Lundrea. And then I think, yeah, lover boy gives you six pack abs, right, bro? Right, Right. So they go to the one bar, and they're like, you want to sell lover boy?
B
And oh, my God, this is so embarrassing. This whole thing was so embarrassing. Carl goes, all right, whoever gets a bar owner to commit to taking love boy in, we'll get. And Lexi goes, equity. And Kevin goes, I don't even know if I want equity.
A
Like, hey, Gavin, do you. Do you carry lover boy in your bars? Yeah, of course. I mean, I supply. I support Kyle and carry lover boys. It doesn't sell very well, but, you know, maybe his trolley will help.
B
Otherwise, hey, anybody want a free ride on the Titanic? Am I right? Come on. So they go into a bar and they're like, can we talk to the bar owner? And Yvonne's like, okay, we're here because we love lover boy. Have you ever heard of lover boy? She's like, you want to try it? She goes, how do you like it? She's like, it's really good. Great. Oh.
A
So then they are just. They continue on this thing, and then Gavin asks Kenny And Kyle, if they've chatted yet, they're back on the trolley, like, hey, have you guys chatted yet? Because of, you know, the spark thing? And Kyle's like, yeah, yeah, we caught up. Everything's good. Everything's good. It's perfect. Okay. Yeah, we cleared some things up. And Kyle's like, yeah, it's a little bit of a game in telephone. Like, that was never my intention. So I did apologize to Kenny for that. So sorry. Sorry, bro. Sorry. Yeah.
B
I mean, I hope he got the apology. It was over the phone. I'm not sure if there was a charge. The phone was pretty sparkless. Oh, I'm sorry.
A
Terrible. I'm just like, oh. And I feel sorry about there being a big misunderstanding, maybe because at least with Carl is trying to sell at the same time, the approach was all wrong. But, you know, you could have dealt with, like, the situation a completely different way. You know what I'm saying? You know, oh, you can forgive me. K's like, well, I will admit, when I'm feeling like I'm defending my relationship, I can be very direct and abrasive in a way that Whitney can be very dull and not full of spark. Right. So I think that that's where I was that night. Yeah.
B
Sorry I had to defend my relationship so much, guys. Okay. And Lindsay's like, are you talking about. He's like, yeah, I don't know if it was a dream or not, but I thought you actually said something nice that night in the middle of that, and I thought you had, like, a nice thing to say. And Gavin's like, yeah, that was a dream.
A
I did not say anything nice to you. I was saying something nice to the guy with 1.9 million followers. So Kevin's like, well, this is more productive. This is a much more productive conversation than we had the other night, you know? And then Kyle's like, sorry to interrupt this, but it's time to sell more lover boy merch. So now they're at a new place, and again, they're just trying to, like, sell the stuff. And this guy's like, okay, whatever. They're like,
B
win some wines. Hey, wanna buy a a drink that's not selling. Win some, lose some. Okay. All right. Thanks for taking this. Keep that. All right. Keep that. All right.
A
Yeah, yeah. Okay. I'll represent Winsome. Whitney, you can represent Lose some. Okay, great. Just talk about spark.
B
Here comes one right now.

A
Yeah.
B
So they're still talking about Andrea's abs and how hot they are and stuff, which, I mean, good point. And so the producer's like, does the, does lover boy give you abs? And Andrea's like, yes. You see it, Here they are. He shows off his abs some more. It's a lot of Andrea's abs. Like a good solid three minutes.
A
I'm not complaining abs. I would rather watch Andrea's abs than more lover boy merchant. So then Kyle's like, okay everyone, we got 20 more stops. So they're just like now they're, they're like, they're doing this cheer. When you say lover, I say boy lover. Or when I say lover, you say boy whatever. And they're doing this whole thing. And then Gavin is, they're like talking with Lindsay about a hat. This is a lot of merch stuff happening.
B
It's a bunch of. Basically it's really boring until someone's like, okay, let's Start a fight. So Yvonne's like, okay, well, first Lindsay's using the megaphone. They're all yelling stuff out the. Out the window. And Lindsay's like, I'm a Danielle. I heard you went on a date this week with my best friend Yvonne. Yvonne's like, yeah, we had a great time. But we did talk about some things that you're going through right now. You know, you're going through a divorce. Owen and still being married, but dating Danielle, but Danielle not being a homewrecker. You know, the public scrutiny of being a homewrecker. Okay, go like that.
A
And Owen's like, well, I think it's with this group, you know, I think that, like, it's nothing new. Like, people getting divorced is nothing new. Like, we were out with Katie and Matt, and, you know, we were on a chat with. With. They were on a chat with Kyle and Amanda, and there were screenshots and blogs spreading rumors about Danielle, spreading rumors about. I. So then we see screenshots that, like, they were all like, oh, my God, Danielle. Danielle's with a married guy or whatever.
B
And Amanda's like, katie, it's been one of my best friends since third grade. I'm allowed to talk to her. And she's like, yeah, Danielle and my best friend Katie are close because I introduced them. Danielle's like, yeah, Katie and I hit it off, and we've been best friends ever since. And I certainly don't want Katie to be in the middle of this situation.
A
Don't worry. She's not. Because the only footage they have of Katie is her as her walking into the summer house. They keep on showing Katie and Matt walking the door and putting the arrow over her. And then she, like, showed up one more, like, millisecond. And so Kyle's like, well, when that came out, like, we don't. Like, we don't know if it's true or not. Like, we don't know what's going up, to be fair.
B
And.
A
And Owen's like, pacha didn't even ask. Danielle's like, yeah, but I'm like, not in the group chat with him, okay? And, like, Kitty and Matt are, like, talking about stuff that's, like, about your marriage and. And your relationship. It's, like, not cool.
B
Well, this wasn't about Katie and Matt yesterday, so that's not what I was trying to bring up right now. Daniel's like, no, but I'm saying it's hurtful. And Amanda's like, whatever. You're calling me a home record? It's a conversation you need to have with Katie and Matt. Because it's a group chat, okay? It's not me.
A
Well, who put us in the group chat? Who put us in the group chat? This is something that was brought to our attention. It's a conversation that the four of us have been having. So that wasn't the first time it's been brought up in a conversation. I was like, what sort of defense is that? Like, no, no, it was. Listen, it's not our fault that we were texting about it. This was just brought to us. And besides, we've been talking about it for a very long time anyway. Oh, never mind then. Feel free. Continue on with your group text about.
B
Yeah, no one's like, well, why weren't you talking to us about. Because they're not friends with you. No one's friends with you on this show. They just cast you on the show. Haven't we. Hasn't that been made clear that no one's still friends with you? You guys were just cast on the show. And also, if someone's comes up in a blog with gossip, the friends are going to text each other. I mean, I'm not. I hate standing up for Amanda, but Amanda should just not be a wuss about it and just say, of course we were texting about it. There was a blog calling you a home record. Duh. Yes, about it.
A
And Danielle's been so messy with these kind of gossip items that have come up over the years with her friends. I mean, she even, like, practically wrote an article, as they mentioned in one of the flashbacks coming in.
B
Not only that, but in the one that you're referring to, that was the Craig getting kicked out in Italy thing. And Paige blamed Lindsay for doing that, and Lindsay took the blame. She. She didn't even deny it, even though she knew it was Danielle who had leaked that or who had actually written that story or whatever. So it's a good whatever, Danielle.
A
So. So Amanda's like, why is there an issue with me and Kyle when Katie and Matt are the ones who brought it to our attention, even though we've already been talking about it?
B
It.
A
And then Kyle's like, well, the only reason why it's like, no, quiet, Kyle, why is your issue with me and Kyle and Katie and Matt are the ones who told us about it, even though we already are talking about it. So Danielle's like, well, we don't know who brought it to anyone. No, I'm letting you know that now. It's like, well, you're Yelling at me because you're not listening when you're talking over me.
B
Amanda talking over you? And Owen's like, I think you're the one talking over everybody. Mana.
A
Amanda. Amanda. Who just told Lindsay. I just kind of, like, shut down when people yell at me.
B
Yeah, that's Amanda. She's. Amanda just goes, amazing. You know? Like, I've always felt kind of dismissed by Danielle. Yeah. But, I mean, I'm usually team Danielle when she's dismissing you too. Because, like. And I laugh all over again when Amanda's like, no. Like, you can have a conversation with Paige, but not me.
C
Sick.
B
That's sick.
A
She doesn't take me seriously. Like, I have a bikini that's named Sierra. Like, what? What the hell? Like, that's in my whole, like, my whole thing, our whole friendship. I think she's always kind of viewed me as Kyle's girlfriend. And anytime I get into a fight with Kyle, who's right by his side. Danielle. So Amanda is having some issues with people being loyal to other people.
B
What a crazy. But also, Danielle's always been Kyle's friend, not yours. I mean, I'm gonna go to my friend. Why are we pretending these. You've never liked each other. So Amanda's like, yeah, you know, she's just not my bestie. So Owen's like, oh, Kyle put it into the chat, and that's why we're asking about it. Oh, Owen, if you don't want people talking about you around, then don't around. Or don't be a public figure right when you're about to get divorced or whatever you did. Stop blaming other people.
A
Owen, stop. Stop dating a list celebrities like Danielle. Okay?
B
No one has stopped talking about Danielle for 10 years, okay?
A
She is a founder and a CEO. So Amanda is like. Well, either way, Danielle tells us no one screenshots something and puts it in the group chat. Just be like, wow, can you believe this? Like, shucks, eat. She's full of it. She's full of, like, relax. So Gavin is saying, like, is this about their relationship and the divorce, or is it about your relationship? Because I have no idea. Honestly, I'm good. You put it in the group chat. I thought we were better friends, and maybe you should just, like, check in. But I don't know. Maybe I was, like, dumb.
B
I have breaking news. I just got this. No one died. Don't worry. No 80s star died in the making of this announcement.
A
Bang. Just kidding.
B
Tell us. Noah Sampton, senior vice president of current production for Bravo and Peacock, denies rumors that they edit edited summer house season 10 to protect Amanda Batula's image and soft launch a victim narrative. Wow. Have you already heard our podcast? That's exactly what I just accused you of. No intention to protect. Strictly standard editing commitment to fairness the state of her reality future. While Sampton shut down the projection room, the protection rumors. Amanda's casting future remains highly scrutinized. West Wilson was officially dropped, and Bravo's VP of current production, Josh Brown, stated that official Summer House casting directions will not be finalized until late June. Oh, whatever. Stop bugging me with headlines that don't say anything.
A
Stop bugging me, Internet.
B
I'm putting Amanda right back on there, and you know it.
A
I thought you were going to say that west being, like, leaving the show was actually just all rumors in this. Nothing's been confirmed. That's. I literally thought that that's what's gonna happen. And then I thought Parker Overall might have been dead, but I'm glad that
B
Park Overall has been cast on Summerhouse season 11.
A
Yeah, right. I would love that. I would love that. She comes in, but she just acts like she's 36. She's like, yeah.
B
Hey, everyone, my name is Spark. Spark Overall.
A
That would make me so happy.
B
Okay, so back to this nonsense. So Danielle's like, no one screenshot something and puts it in a group chat just to be like, wow, can you believe this? Shocks eat. She's full of. Yes, they do. Danielle. That's what text is for. It's like literally every text thread.
A
No, that's why she's. That's what she's saying. No, no, that's. She's. She's saying that. She's saying that they're acting like. Like, oh, my God. She's saying that they're acting like, oh, did you see this thing about Danielle? How interesting. She's like, no, you guys were. You guys were putting in the group check to. That's what you were doing.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
Okay. Well, either way, same Danielle.
A
I'd like to know what Noah has to say about this. What does Noah. What does Noah Bridgehampton have to say about this? From mdc.
B
Reese Ryder, what do you have to say about this? So Gavin's like, okay, wait a minute. Amanda, is this about their relationship and the divorce, or is this about your relationship? Like, what are we even talking about? And Danielle's like, I have no idea. And honestly, I'm good. And you put it in the group chat and I thought we were better friends and maybe, like, you would check in or something. Maybe I was just dumb. You're dumb if you think Amanda and you are friends. Everybody knows you guys aren't friends.
A
Stop it. I'm trying to bring. I'm trying to explain to her. Katie and Matt brought it up to us. What do you not understand that lover boy is the best drink on earth? Kenny's like, okay, like, I don't. I don't want anything to do with this. I'm not in this. And Whitney, of course, is like, what's going on?
B
Yeah. So he's like, I literally don't know what's going on. We know, Whitney. I was like, how dare you call me messy.
A
Hold on.
B
I have a call coming from Miha.
A
Then Danielle's like, never in a group chat. I've never done something like that.
B
I've never.
A
I've never screen grabbed a headline about my friend and put it in a group chat. Okay? Lies. Lies, Danielle. Huge lies. If you think that, like, if you want me to believe that you were not sending headlines to whatever friend you have about Lindsay and Carl, you are sadly mistaken.
B
She even said when she got confronted about the page thing. Not the page thing. The Craig getting kicked out of the wedding thing. She's like, I mean, yeah, like, so what? Who cares if I like, it was juicy.
A
Yeah, she said that. So Danielle's like, it's not the truth, Amanda. That's the problem. Not a home wrecker. And Lindsay's like, wait, wait, what's going on? I'm a bicycle influencer. And Danielle's like, I'm out. I'm out. She thinks that's true. Go yourself, Amanda, what's happening?
B
So Danielle leaves the trolley. She's like, I'm out.
A
You tried the wrong one.
B
You're literally running away.
A
I go, I know.
B
Nobody's scared.
A
I'm the founder and CEO of the wrong one.
C
Okay?
A
So Kyle's like, okay, well, whatever. I don't reach out to Danielle when she's my wife. Over. How about that, huh? So.
B
And no one's like, about what? What did she. Your wife?
A
Over.
B
And kind of like, the man's like, don't talk on my behalf, Kyle. Owen's like, he doesn't even talk. He shouts.
A
So, well, welcome to Kyle. And then meanwhile, Andrea and Lexi are trying to catch up with Danielle. And Andre's like, oh, Danielle, chill, chill, chill, chill. And she's like, no, it's not. Is that not true?
C
Is that.
A
What was it? I'm like, what? Why are we still at, like, level 10 over this stupid screenshot in the group Text with Katie and Matt were not even on the show.
B
This is so stupid. So Amanda's now mad. She's like, whatever, Kyle. I'm done. I don't want to do this anymore. You're screaming and shouting and it's ridiculous. Amanda, you've been screaming and shouting this whole time.
A
I know.
B
So Nick's like, let's go get a pint. And Lindsay's like, thanks for the day, Kyle. Love you. So now this is over. Meanwhile, Danielle's crying to Lexi and Lexi's like, you know it's not true. We know it's not true. They know it's not true. True is true and not true is not true.
A
What are we talking here, Lexi? Thank you very much, Danielle. I don't think you're a home wrecker, just a shitty friend. And she's like, yeah, and I don't even think that you would do that to me. Not even someone as awful and as craven as you, Lindsay, would do something like that to me. Take a screenshot of me and put in a group text. No, no. Only the most afraid of people, which is one level below you. Lindsay would do that.
B
She's like, I know that you love him and I know that, like, out of every guy who's been like, tricked into dating you, like, he is the one that was probably the most stolen. So I support you, Daniel.
A
Yeah, look at the way he's consoling you right now by being in a bar and drinking a pint instead.
B
Like, he is the one cuts to Owen drinking in a bar, like, oh, Jesus.
A
I know. So the event is pretty much wraps up and it's a. It's a great time. So now we go, we move over to the West Village and now it's Lindsay and Danielle and they're waiting in line for a pizza place called Linda Street. I guess it's a popular pizza place. I hope it's worth it because that was a long line and there's a lot of pizza in New York you could probably get. So yeah, I'm taking potshots at Yule Industry. And it's really just. It's honestly just transferred frustration because Ronnie and I were in soho two weeks ago and we needed a quick bite and we tried to get. We tried to get a slice of pizza and they're like, there's a line. And there was like this big line. I'm like, for pizza?
B
Crazy, right? I saw it at a few pizza places. I wonder if I passed this one, like the Tick Tock pizza, you know, whatever they put on TikTok and everyone's like, oh, my God, it's TikTok pizza.
A
Get it?
B
They're like, eating their pizza.
A
Like, yes.
B
Doing shoulder dances. I don't know. I got it like a $50 slice down the street.
A
It was good.
B
So. Oh, speaking of, Danielle is like, the line is long, but it's a really good pizza place. And Lindsay's like, is that a tick tock place? And it's like, that's sensitive for me because I'm not on TikTok. Are you on TikTok?
A
I can only handle like one social media platform at a time. Like any good influencer.
B
Yeah, I was, that's what I thought too.
A
I was like, where's the sand? What are you talking about? Is this not the beach
B
industry?
A
Are you okay? Because, like, when we left that trolley, you were like, not well. And like, you were like, really upset. And like, once I was done laughing about it, a few hours later, I was like, I should probably check in on her. So are you okay?
B
Yeah. I mean, I hate that. I was like storming out and crying, but, you know. And then she's telling us the home wrecker word. It's like, very triggering for someone who's Latina and you're seen a certain way, you're always the mistress. I mean, Made in Manhattan.
A
I haven't seen it. Made in Manhattan. Was, Was Jlo a mistress in that one?
B
She was, I think she was a cleaning lady or something who fell in love with a rich guy or something. It's a cute movie.
A
Yeah, I know. I, I, I, I just never, I never got to see it. But I just love that. Made in Manhattan is like the, that's like the reference point here.
B
The big statement is made in Manhattan.
A
So the history, she, she feels like she's being profiled by being Latina as being, like, automatically some sort of like, vixen who's going to come in and ruin everything or being like, upwardly mobile. And so it's very triggering for her. And Lindsay's like, I mean, I would have been upset if I'd been paying attention to what you were saying for the past five minutes. When's this pizza ready? Yeah. And then a guy walks by and just burps on them. Did that guy burp on me?
B
Sorry, that was Owen. So Lindsay pays for it and she's being really nice to Danielle. And so they start talking about Gemma and is she walking yet? And she's like, I'm like, walking with a walker. Paige is like, like Mother like daughter. Am I right? Sorry.
A
I don't have to wait in line for this pizza.
C
Bye.
A
Danielle is like, oh, by the way, can I come to your apartment at some point? It looks beautiful. He's like, yeah. I mean, I'm a little hesitant because that's, like, a weird thing for you to ask, but, like, I just don't know where we stand. Like, I don't know where our friendship is right now. So.
B
That's so weird. I like that. Lindsay's like, oh, my God, Danielle, I'm totally in support, you know? You did not cheat on that man. Let me buy you a lunch. You cannot come to my house. I'm not ready for that.
A
Not yet. So, Danielle, like, I don't know, but, like, is this. We're sort of redating each other, I guess. Like, where do we go from here? I have an answer for that.
B
Your apartment.
A
Can I see it, please? Because, like, I just. I don't want you to think I'm not trying.
B
Yeah. And she's like, okay, well, keep trying. So, Owen, I've had, like, limited interactions with him, but it seems like he's really lovely and married. So when is he going to get divorced? And she's like, it's underway right now. It's like, a matter of time and paperwork. Yeah. Trust me, paperwork takes, like, a long. I dated this guy, and he'd been separated for, like, two years. And we went out one night, and we came home, and his wife was, like, sitting in the dark, drinking a glass of wine, and she went, shoes off, shoes off.
A
I was like, there's a human in here. What does this have to do with paperwork? Nothing. I just was bored with you. So I was just trying to transition to something more interesting for the audience.
B
Was trying to make your story more interesting by inserting my story in there. And Danielle's like, wait, so they were still living together? And she's like, no, Michael, nearly. So the kids were apt.
A
Was it Amanda and Kyle? Yes, it was. So she's like, well, he's moving into mine, so that's not gonna be an issue. You know? She's like, but I had very clear boundaries.
B
Like.
A
Like, call me when you're divorced. Like, I can't do this. That's what I'm trying to say. Like, why don't you. Like, no, not. I don't judge you. I just didn't know if you had that mental timeline of, like, I don't know, waiting. She's like, I don't know. I just. I feel like to Put, like, a definitive timeline on it is, like, silly, but, like, he wants to get married, and he wants to have kids, and things are going to be happening, you know? He wants things to happen. Okay, well, as long as it's definitely happening, happening.
B
Yeah. So now we go to Kenny's apartment, and they're talking about the dad. Whitney's like, did you find the father? And he's like, well, it's weird because I hired this private investigator and I wanted an update, and he gave me a bunch of phone numbers, but none of the phone numbers worked. Really? Dan Rubik.
A
Hey, Lou. I think they're catching on.
B
Probability. I've got a number for you here. Rival Flavin Aspartame. Are you reading the back of an ice cream carton? I am. Okay, that'll be 500 more dollars. Thanks. Talk to you next week.
A
Okay, so your dad is British. He lives in England. All right, well, we have great news. We found him. He lives in Tampa, and his name is now Lois Pajango. What are you talking about? I open up the phone book, and that's the first name I found. You got me?
B
Your dad is so famous, he's got a song. Casino Morongo, right there. That's not my father. Do you have your TV on right now? 1-877-cars-for kids. Damn it. So Whitney's like, wait a minute. But wait. We. We. We have an address, right? So let's just, like, Google the address and the number and then see what comes up. And he's like, oh, okay. She goes, maybe we can find his wife. Or we could, like, find him on social media, like Facebook. Old people love Facebook. He's like, what? Facebook? Are they on Facebook? Yeah, all parents are on Facebook. It's like their bible. What's her name? Deborah? Debbie. Oh, my God. She literally knows. Jesus, she's here. I found her. Let's call her.
A
Are you Mom?
B
She's like, oh, my God, Kenny, we've been looking for you.
A
And then just cuts away.
B
I was like, wait, Whitney, of all people, solve this. You're going through a private. Whitney just found it on Facebook. You know what? We don't give Whitney enough credit. It.
A
Yeah, it's an old person. She's like, okay, well, I just. I just typed in crazy memes, crazy political memes, and her face just popped right up. You know, once you get to that certain age, you just love posting crazy memes on Facebook. Oh, look at this. So I cross referenced the name Debbie with a status update that says, my account has been Hacked. Please don't open up anything on my account. It has been hacked. Also, beware of solar panels. It's a conspiracy.
B
Dear Facebook, you do not have my permission to repost any pictures of me or my family.
A
Tragic story about a turtle that was killed by an opossum. Oh, my God. And then your mom is right there.
B
Yeah. So then we go to Kyle and Amanda's apartment, and people are still packing Amanda's things. Good lord. My God.
A
Still packing.
B
And there's still piles of clothes on one of the beds. And, you know, Amanda just left half that there. She's like, well, I'll come back for this later.
A
Yeah, of course. So she's gathering her stuff and she's starting to cry, and she's like, you know, she says, I'm finally moving out today. And I was alone last night, and I had, like, a full breakdown. Even though it's like, to help our relationship, like, it does feel like a chapter's closing. So I thought she was crying because it's the chapter's closing. But we find out later that she's crying because Kyle didn't come home that night.
B
And she's like, why wouldn't you spend my last night in the apartment? I'm leaving you to save our relationship. And you weren't even here. He's like, what do you mean? And he's doing his. Like, Kyle, like, he's looking down. You know, it's kind of the west. Like, he's had to apologize so many times. Like, I'm sorry I disrespected was. It was a sorry for. Again, just tell me. I'll just say it.
A
Okay. I am leaving you, but I'm pretending it's only for a month, but it's for a year. And so today is the day that I actually am going to leave. And so out of respect for me, you should have stayed in last night because today I'm leaving. So it wasn't cool that you left last night? Because I'm about to leave for a year because I don't like you anymore. I can't believe you didn't stay here last night. Yeah, it's like, it's. It's logic. Like, I understand.
B
Like, you're dating.
A
You're trying to. Like, I don't think that. Like, I understand if he maybe is like, I don't know if I want to throw a going away party for my wife when she's leaving me, you know? Well, I get that.
B
Yeah. I mean, you're leaving me. And so I went like, what do you want? And he says, but the past two nights I spent with you, and you just got high on the couch all night and didn't talk to her. Me, you know, and so she goes through this whole, like, well, who? And she ignores that. She's like, bye, Kyle. Of course. And she's like, who was in our apartment last night? Like, I mean, you go to the marathon, and then you come home at midnight, and then you go back out and you bring people back here. Like, strangers. Like, you're bringing strangers back to our home while I'm asleep. I mean, that was pretty creepy. And you had a woman in our home that you just met out. Like, I'm doing this for the sake of our marriage. No, you're not. You're leaving him, so just feel more justified in leaving and go and get your off the bed.
A
Yeah, I mean, I, I, I, I do think it is a little up. And I do think that, like, Kyle is not good with being, like, dealing with his emotions. So of course he's gonna feel, you know, he's gonna fill this void that's happening here with, like, having people over. It is kind of crazy, but, like, it's just weird to see someone who's trying to, like, leave the relationship get mad that someone's not, like, sending them off in a way. I don't know. If I were Amanda, I'd be like, oh, you know what? This guy. I'm out of here. And just be go.
B
I'm just sick of it. That's it. I'm sick of this couple. I'm sick of listening to them fight. It has been forever. Amanda is the constant victim. Yes. What Kyle did, obviously, is stupid, but he's also getting dumped by his wife, who's lying to him the whole time, every, at every turn about what she's doing and where she's going and how long she's gonna go there. And so as far as I'm concerned, she doesn't really have a leg to stand on here. And I'm sick of listening to her, and I'm sick of Kyle doing his too. But just go. Just go and take lover boy with you. I've had it with other football.
A
They're both such full of. And I love that Amanda's like, my movers are here, and I have to, like, go. And I'm, like, very overwhelmed right now. Like, this is the last thing I needed today. And he's like, well, but you knew it was marathon Sunday. I was trying to encourage you.
B
I don't Know what?
A
That. I don't know what Marathon Sunday had to do. Do with this. But I love this. Like, wait, you can't be mad at me. It was marathon Sunday. I was gonna party. I had to celebrate the marathon. So she storms out.
B
She's like, you left early and then you came back at 2 in the morning. He's like, I was trying to encourage you. I don't know what that means.
A
I don't know what that even.
B
Marathon Sunday. I don't know what that means either. So she's like, okay, well, I don't care guy. And this leaves him. Oh, my God, please. And by the way, also, I have so much going on. My movers are here. Your movers are doing it all. You didn't even pack a.
A
You have so much. Yeah, yeah. You have so much going on. He was on a business call and you interrupted a business call to be like, I need to. I need. I need you to come out here so I can get mad at you for having someone over last night. Having people over right before I dump you.
B
Be gone, you two, be gone. I'm sick of it. Cheers to your newest. Cheers to your new toxic relationships to spend the next decade of my life on. But enough of you two. Jesus.

Episode: #3417 In the City S1E5: Branded and Disbanded
Date: June 17, 2026
On this energetic, irreverent episode of Watch What Crappens, Ben and Ronnie dive into the latest installment of Bravo’s “In the City,” specifically Season 1, Episode 5: "Branded and Disbanded." Their recap is a classic blend of comedic shade, deep-dish Bravo analysis, and signature mockery for the ridiculous and endlessly watchable lives of the reality stars we love (and love to roast).
The episode covers a busy week in the cast's lives—branded influencer events, baby announcements, Lover Boy marketing mishaps, escalating fights about “homewrecker” rumors, and the ongoing saga of Kyle and Amanda's decaying relationship. Ben and Ronnie dissect the drama with their usual mix of affection, sarcasm, and wild tangents.
On Lindsay the Influencer:
“She’s like, I’m so much more than that. I’m an influencer, I’m a MILF, I’m Gemma’s mom. I do more than just, like, one thing.” – Lindsay, (08:00)
On group chat drama:
“No one’s like, well, why weren’t you talking to us about? Because they’re not friends with you. No one’s friends with you on this show. They just cast you on the show.” – Ronnie, (52:58)
On Amanda and packing:
“Amanda, you have been packing for, like, four weeks on this show. At this point, just call someone, okay, you’re wealthy. Just have someone pack it up for you.” – Ben, (39:24)
On Lover Boy’s prospects:
"Your drink is... it’s a ghost town in a can." – Gavin, (40:52)
On Danielle’s “homewrecker” label:
“The homewrecker word—it’s very triggering for someone who’s Latina and you’re seen a certain way, you’re always the mistress. I mean, Made in Manhattan.” – Danielle, (64:35)
On Amanda's role in Kyle's life:
"She’s always kind of viewed me as Kyle’s girlfriend. And anytime I get into a fight with Kyle, who’s right by his side? Danielle." – Amanda, (55:07)
The entire recap is delivered with Ben and Ronnie’s trademark mix of withering sarcasm, Bravo-obsessed references, random side jokes (expect several long riffs on gay porn star names and Martin Lawrence), and an odd but loving affection for the messiness of the cast. They roast the cast for their choices but also for the Bravo formula itself—brand launches, manufactured conflict, and the endless cycle of bad romantic decisions.
This episode delivers serious laughs and Bravo-insider analysis as Ben and Ronnie unpack a cast stuck in cycles—baby fever, brand desperation, friend group politics, and romantic malaise. The Lover Boy trolley ride typifies the episode’s theme: desperate attempts at rebranding while old wounds and alliances derail every plan. For fans who missed the episode, this recap is both a roadmap of the plot chaos and a meta-commentary on the ridiculous parade that is life on Bravo.
