Episode Overview

This episode is the second part of Ben and Ronnie’s irreverent, detail-obsessed recap of The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 20, Episode 2. After a quick reminder to catch part one, the hosts dive right into mocking, analyzing, and celebrating the latest Bravo drama, paying especially sharp attention to Vicki's return, housewives’ friendship politics, Carmela's unconventional family, petty feuds, giant rings, and an “old lady” themed birthday party at Hamburger Mary’s. Their signature blend of affectionately savage impressions, banter, and pop-culture tangents makes for a fast-paced and hilarious recap.

  • Carmela: “This big ruby ring is actually a gift because my husband cheated…” (21:20)
• Reveals that she and her ex are not legally divorced to avoid custody arrangements, and she’s fine with her ex’s girlfriend because “she’s nice to my kids.”
• Vicki protests: “That is a lot of dysfunction for a fourth, fifth, and sixth grader.” (23:27)

Flashbacks, Hypocrisy, and Parenting Judgment

Overall Tone & Style

Irreverent, playful, and loving in its skewering, the episode is dense with Bravo in-jokes, Housewife impressions, and deadpan meta-commentary—a treat for any Bravo superfan or Crappens regular. Ben and Ronnie’s rapport makes even mundane scenes hilarious, and their ability to find storylines in podcast feed drama, shared custody, and 50th birthday parties is unmatched.

• Vicki’s comic return to the fold
• Ongoing feuds and psychological warfare (Heather vs. everyone)
• Carmela’s less-than-thrilling family scenes and ongoing cheating drama
• Drag Bingo delights and birthday existentialism
• Podcast feed squabbles as high drama

Layered with memorable quotes, character impressions, and fast comic beats, this is a can’t-miss for Bravo lovers who want more than a recap—they want the roast.

[Vicki]

What happens?

[Narrator/Announcer]

But there's so much that happens.

[Host 1]

Well, hello and welcome to Watch what Croppens. This is part two of a two part recap.

[Host 2]

If you're like, hey, wait a minute, I didn't hear part one, guys. It's because we put out a lot of recaps. Go back and listen to part one. Okay. It's before this one. Bye. Enjoy the show.

[Commentator 1]

So Vicki, yeah, she's still nursing a bad knee. And Vicki was saying that whole party, that was weird. Like everybody was in these little cluster groups. I'm like, why? Why are you doing that?

[Commentator 2]

Yeah, yeah.

[Commentator 3]

So like Jen, like, who I don't have the best relationship with, she was

[Commentator 2]

like, I really don't. I really want to move forward. And like, the problem is I don't know if we can move forward because of Heather, because she's always talking behind your back.

[Commentator 3]

And I think that Heather, she basically is downplaying our friendship to them.

[Vicki]

Yeah, but are you really the close friends with Heather? I mean, I Mean, Heather's like surface friends. She's surface friends. You know, she inherits her friends. She inherits them. Her friends were all her parents first.

[Host 2]

We all know that.

[Vicki]

This is like Terry.

[Host 2]

Terry's old friends.

[Commentator 2]

She's a people pleaser.

[Commentator 3]

So, like, when somebody doesn't like her, she goes to them and, like, tries to, like, love bomb them and be like, oh, we're good. We're, like, such good friends. Because, like, if she does that, then they won't talk about her.

[Vicki]

Yeah, I mean, look, she did send me a welcome back text. Like, welcome to the group, Vicky. I'm the leader of the pack. Heather, you're not the leader of the pack. I am.

[Host 2]

Do you think Heather really said, I'm the leader of the pack? I don't think so, no. I think she just said, welcome to the group. And Vicki took it that way, but it made it sound like Vicki was saying. She literally said that, Heather, you're not

[Vicki]

the leader of the pack. I am.

[Host 2]

Well, God forbid. I mean, do you get mad at the greeter at Walmart, too? Jesus, allow people to say hello and welcome. My God.

[Commentator 1]

But, you know, I mean, Heather probably wrote something that was like, hello, Victoria,

[Commentator 4]

welcome back to this group. You've been gone for so long, we don't even remember what your face looks like. I hope you fit in. Well, I'm sure you get to. You'll get to shoot scenes with Gina or some other newer cast members.

[Commentator 1]

She probably said something like that was, like, welcoming, but also, like, you are no longer varsity level.

[Host 2]

Yeah, like, welcome. Well, I think, like, welcome to the group.

[Vicki]

And Vicki's probably thinking, like, I started this group. This is by group. Okay. I was on this. I started this group text.

[Commentator 4]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

So Tamara says that Heather loves to reprimand her, which is true, but Heather just loves to reprimand anything and anyone. Like, that's her true love language.

[Vicki]

Yeah.

[Host 2]

Yeah, exactly. And we see a clip of Heather

[Commentator 5]

saying, I did not like the way you spoke to Emily at the reunion. And what you said about her podcast was so mean. I. I don't know if it's true

[Vicki]

or not, because like most other people

[Commentator 5]

in the world, I haven't listened to it. But the point is.

[Host 1]

Whoa.

[Commentator 1]

Well, what's also so funny with Heather is that they accuse her of not saying what she really feels. And then when she says what she really feels, like, she's always reprimanding us. She's always talking to us. It's like, what do you want? Because, like, you get mad at her when she, like, says what's on her mind. And then. So then she filters it because she's like, oh, they're getting mad at me. They don't like to hear this.

[Commentator 3]

So then they're like, she's not really saying what's.

[Commentator 1]

What she's thinking.

[Host 2]

Well, it's a housewives, so you just can't win. There's no winning.

[Commentator 1]

There's no way that Heather enjoys hacking around with these people. This must be exasperating for her. Like, she just There. She's just in a totally different wavelength than everyone else. Not above, not below, just like, a different wavelength because she just does not know how to communicate or relate to them, which is why I think she's so funny on this show, because she really is like. Like, she's been on for so many years and still cannot truly, like, mix. It's so funny.

[Vicki]

Yeah.

[Host 2]

I think that Heather really only relates to or she only talks to people that she's hired. You know what I mean? Or that are other super rich people. I think other than that, it's just she's not used to being people who aren't rich or who aren't carrying something for her. You know, I think she just looks at these ladies and she's like, why

[Commentator 5]

don't they have a plate in their hand that they are passing me from the left?

[Commentator 1]

She's just having Alfredo bring in a stack of boxes from Uline.

[Commentator 4]

Okay, who wants the refrigerator size one?

[Commentator 6]

Yeah.

[Host 2]

So Tamara is explaining that she built this network on Iheart with Teddy, and then Iheart gave them their own network, and so they could hire and they get a percentage from the podcast that they put in. So they tested Emily out, and when they put it in their feed, it goes out to all these subscribers. And then the people who subscribe get pissed because they're like, we're subscribed to your podcast. Why are we now getting Emily?

[Commentator 1]

Which is a fair question.

[Host 2]

That's fair.

[Commentator 3]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

So Tamara is like, yes, zero gratitude whatsoever.

[Commentator 2]

And then she says, I'm not on your feed. I'm not this. And I'm like, are we in the Twilight Zone? Yes, you are, Batch.

[Commentator 1]

So Tamara's saying basically, like, if you look at the numbers when she's on our feed, there's a huge, huge difference. And I'm assuming it's not an upswing.

[Host 2]

Yeah. So Vicky.

[Vicki]

Vicky goes. When I hear this, I just hear. It's like, Charlie Brad. It's like, it's a Charlie Brad. Just like, you know, kicking a football. You can't do it. Like, Charlie Brown sucks. Everybody hates Charlie Brown. Like, is that even a strap on your shirt? Like, what is that stupid giant headed Charlie Brown?

[Commentator 1]

And then she goes, I mean, who has time to listen to all these podcasts anyway? I mean, what are they doing? Like, are they not working? Like, lady, the season opened with you reclining on a beach in Mexico.

[Host 2]

So also, you have a podcast.

[Commentator 1]

Vicki has a podcast.

[Host 2]

You're a podcast. But of course it's hypocrite Vicki.

[Vicki]

Like, what if it is a podcast? That's just stupid. Listen to my podcast coming up this week.

[Commentator 1]

So now she gets a. Vicki gets a text about having to go to her desert house. And then she's, like, talking on the phone and saying some, some like, or something about, like, having to go to Lake Havasu.

[Commentator 2]

And Tamara's like, yeah, I just think it's day.

[Commentator 3]

How fun it would be to go to Havasu.

[Commentator 1]

If they make Heather debrow go to Lake Havasu, then these, these producers are officially trolling her. That's hilarious. Please do it.

[Host 2]

And then we see clips of Lake Havasu. Don being pulled over on his boat by the police, Vicki getting hit in the head with the football. It's just like Vicky being slammed with a football.

[Commentator 1]

You know, Heather's gonna be like, alfredo,

[Commentator 4]

make up a special room in the servants quarters. We're getting someone new named Sue. We're going to a place called Havasu, right?

[Commentator 1]

We all get to have a Sue.

[Commentator 4]

No.

[Vicki]

So Vicki's like, oh, by the way, I did tell you this, but that lives in the desert. And we were at the nest and he was there, and, like, I kind

[Host 2]

of pushed Mike off.

[Commentator 1]

I was like, get out of here.

[Vicki]

So I could go up to him. And yeah, I got Dub's face. And I was like, oh, my God, I hope you're doing good. I regret marrying you. I mean, I regret divorcing you. I mean, what was I thinking? Jesus Christ, why did I do that? I just wanted to hug and kiss him, you know, and then Mike's just standing there like, hi, I'm Vicki's boyfriend, Mike. And of course, I mean, I, I, I heard about it in the car. Like, oh, my God, I said, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. You know, get a job.

[Commentator 1]

Real smooth, Vicki. Real smooth. And so Tam was like, yeah, Tom

[Commentator 2]

is such a good guy. He really is.

[Commentator 3]

And that's why it works.

[Commentator 1]

Oh, I'm sorry. She's talking about Mike. And Vicki's like, yeah, I don't Ever worry that he's gonna cheat on me. And, like, he doesn't have to worry about me cheating because I did it once and it was a horrible outcome.

[Commentator 4]

So I will never cheat on Mike,

[Commentator 1]

even though I did just go up to my ex and say, God, I wish I'd never divorced you. Now I'm stuck dating a bunch of stupid idiots just follow me around in bars, whether it's like, Havasu or Puerto Vallarta.

[Emily]

Right?

[Commentator 1]

Oh, here he is right now.

[Host 2]

Yeah. You know this is going to be on tv, right, Vicki? And Mike is going to hear you say, I regret ever divorcing Don. Vicki makes it sound to us like Dom. Dom. Don. Sorry, Dom. Like, Don is the one that got away. I think it's still Brooks. I still think that she would be with Brooks if it didn't, you know, if he wasn't a total scammer. But he just ran off with those teeth.

[Commentator 1]

Yeah, he did. So then we go to Carmela's house, and we get to meet her really uninteresting family. She has a bunch of kids, like teenager types. They're all. Everything about this household is generic. It's just like, generic mansion on the inside, generic kids. Sorry, I know we're not supposed to make fun of kids, but it was all very generic. Let's be honest. We've seen this. We've seen this house set this. This family set up so many times. But she's there, and Carmela's like, I'm

[Host 2]

fast forwarding through most of this, to be honest. Carmela's like, you know, here's my family. I've got four kids, two really snotty teenagers. And the girl's like, mom and do it.

[Commentator 7]

I do whatever I want.

[Host 2]

And then the kid comes in, and she's like, where have you been? And I was like, probably putting gel in his hair and then standing upside down on a flat surface on his head because he came in and his hair was like a.

[Vicki]

It looked like.

[Host 2]

Speaking of Susan, like a lazy Susan. It was just a big, round, flat. It was kind of like the broccoli hair, but flattened down. So then we talk about their kids, and then she tells us that Danny's her boyfriend. We see Danny for a second, and they live together full time. And she's like, make sure you put that part in there. Because I met him when my whole life is falling apart. And in that conversation, he told me he was divorced twice. And I'm like, well, you probably don't want kids.

[Vicki]

And he was like, I love Kids.

[Host 2]

And I'm like, I'm sold.

[Commentator 3]

Old.

[Commentator 7]

Yes.

[Host 2]

So they had a bunch of kids.

[Commentator 1]

Yep. Basically.

[Host 2]

Oh, well, he accepted her kids, rather. Sorry.

[Commentator 1]

Basically, yeah. She has a sort of a non traditional setup with Jeff Garcia, who. I wonder who's. I wonder if he's going to come on the show. He let his voice be on the show, so I wonder if he's going to be on the show because he was a very big deal back in the day. Ronnie, I know you're not a sports gay, but he was actually quite a big football celebrity. And now she's got kids who say things to her, so. And then she has a kid who, like, was supposed to go to track but didn't go to track or something. Really uninteresting. It was just a very long scene about her family. They have to, like, establish. Here's a new person. So we spend a little bit of extra time with her family. And they were all.

[Commentator 4]

You know what it was?

[Commentator 1]

It felt like an E Show. It felt like one of those E. Celebrity shows. Like the. Like the. All the.

[Commentator 4]

I can't.

[Commentator 1]

They're so generic. They happen all the time. It's like the. What's it called? The gas to know girls, like, things like that, you know? So I felt like I was just sitting there, like, we, like, took a break from Bravo and we're just like, watching one of these generic, like, the Wacky life of, like, growing up with Erik Estrada or something, you know, I just was like, okay, this is fine.

[Host 2]

Yeah, I like Carmela.

[Commentator 1]

I just felt the scene was, like, very unremarkable.

[Host 2]

Yeah. I mean, some people are hired for, like, fun, interesting families, and some people are hired to fight with the other people on the show. And I think it's the latter with her. I hope so.

[Commentator 1]

Yes.

[Host 2]

Yikes. But also, you know, neither one of us are super into, like, family scenes,

[Commentator 8]

you know,

[Host 2]

as a general rule. So it's not her fault. So now we go like kids.

[Commentator 1]

Kids that were kind of. Everyone just felt like. I felt like everyone was, like, winking at the camera. I was like, h. I can't. I can't. So, yeah, now we go to.

[Host 2]

They're ready for tv.

[Commentator 1]

Yeah. Commercials.

[Commentator 7]

Here comes one right now.

[Host 2]

[Emily]

She's like no, I get picked up in a car the car takes me somewhere, but I don't know any of the details.

[Commentator 6]

Wow.

[Emily]

I never thought I'd be 50. It just seems so far away. Yeah.

[Commentator 6]

I've accomplished so many things. I graduated law school. I passed two bar exams. I've been married to the Same man for 17 years who took it 10 years to pass a bar exam. I mean, I think I'm a pretty good mom. I've got a successful podcast.

[Emily]

Ish.

[Commentator 6]

I've got a lot more to do, but it has to be done before 9pm because I'm old and I feel very lumpy. Hold on. It's something in my pocket. It's a tuna sandwich.

[Commentator 1]

So Annabelle goes, you're old. Or at least your mouth is the

[Commentator 3]

part they forgot to fix.

[Emily]

She's like, well, you're supposed to say was.

[Commentator 1]

She goes, but you're not. You're just old. And then Gina. Now we go to everyone arriving at Hamburger Mary's of Orange county, and they're all. They're all showing up dressed as old ladies. So Gina comes down the street and

[Commentator 3]

she's like, oh, my God, here we are. It's drafty. Wow.

[Commentator 1]

And so she meets the drag queen there. She. They, you know, she gets a lay of the land of what the party's gonna be. And then one by one, they all start to arrive at this party.

[Host 2]

Yeah, we see them on all their old lady gear, and it's hilarious. Especially if you haven't. If you didn't remember them doing it last time. They did the old lady thing, which they did on this show or on Summer House that they did this year or Vanderpump Rules when they did it a couple years ago. It's a thing. So they're all commenting on each other being old ladies and whatever. Tamara comes in, she's forgotten her pants. She's just wearing panties. That's hilarious. You're right. That Vicky does look like Mama from Mama's Family, which I liked.

[Commentator 1]

Yeah. I mean, it is sort of interesting because, like, you, you know, Tamara mentions

[Commentator 2]

the cardigans are just 52 and I'm 56 or whatever.

[Commentator 3]

Or 58.

[Commentator 1]

But like, you do. You know, I do often think. I think two things. What would the Golden Girls look like in 2026? Knowing that, like, styling around. When you're styling in your 50s looks very different now than it did in the 80s. Like, what would the Golden Girls look like now? And then I also think the other way around, which is, what would. What would these women look like if they were not in Orange county and not on tv. And they did. Because people do still, by the way, people still very much also have the Golden Girls look in their 50s. You know, I've definitely been to. I. I've seen people around in different areas, and, like, that. That little perm comes out at a certain age. Some people just go for it, you know? And so part of me wonders, like, what would these women have looked like if they decided not to go for, like, a Orange county, long blonde hair, reality TV look? If they did go for like, a.

[Commentator 3]

Just a little perfect, perky little bob?

[Commentator 1]

And so it was kind of fun, like, because I feel like on some of them, I could actually see, like, oh, this is actually what you would look like if you. If you went this path.

[Vicki]

Yeah.

[Host 2]

If you didn't do hair pieces and Botox and lifts and. And this and that. I mean. Yeah, extensions, you know, And I'm with you. I'm. I'm a wig away from it, you know? So I'm. I'm like, don't do it. You know, don't do it.

[Commentator 5]

Keep on the path. Cut it, snip it, inject it.

[Host 2]

So now they're making small talk. Carmela. Oh, by the way, I was gonna say one of my favorite memes that came out, like, pro, probably. Who knows when, like, 10 years ago or something, was the Golden Girls as they would look now, like, if they were Real Housewives.

[Commentator 1]

And I would love to see that. I haven't seen it. Oh, it's so good.

[Host 2]

I don't have it, obviously, but I just remember seeing it and cracking up. They make them look like Real Housewives, and it's so, so good. So they're making small talk with Carmela and asking her about Corona del Mar, and she's like, well, I'm. Yeah, I'm in San Diego and Corona del Mar. I went through my separation.

[Commentator 5]

I just needed a breath of fresh air.

[Host 2]

So, you know, that's what you do. And Gina likes her, and Shannon's like, well, she was a playmate. She was a playboy playmate of the year. So what do you think about that?

[Commentator 3]

I. I won't say that she was a massive slut, but I'll let you guys all say it for me because she's my friend. I. I can't go against my Rancho Bernardo sister.

[Zocdoc Advertiser]

Yes.

[Vicki]

Yeah.

[Host 2]

But she's a badass real estate agent too.

[Commentator 8]

What about that?

[Host 2]

Do you have any rentals? I'm totally good for it. I'm totally, totally good for it. And Gina's like, I'm a Developer, Okay?

[Commentator 7]

She's in development. And I think that's good for our

[Host 2]

friendship because we're, like, in different lands.

[Commentator 1]

Gina acting like if they were both realistic real estate agents, like, there would be some serious friction. Almost like Gina would be, like, pushing her out of the market.

[Commentator 3]

Like, oh, yeah? Well, guess what? These one bedroom apartments in retirement living. This is my territory. You better back off.

[Host 2]

So Tamara is complimenting her rings, and she's like, oh, this big ruby ring is actually a gift because my husband cheated. And I was like, oh, I'm never wearing this again, because I realized what it was from. But God, I love it, don't you?

[Commentator 1]

I found out that he'd been unfaithful kind of by accident. He left an iPad on the nightstand, and there was a letter written to a woman on the phone. And the phone number that he gave was a different number. And I was like, hello?

[Emily]

No.

[Commentator 1]

Hell no, you motherfucker. So, by the way, what is up with these guys? Idiots eating on the largest possible mobile devices. Why does this keep happening?

[Host 1]

It's the iPad.

[Host 2]

They're always caught on a freaky. It was probably the giant one too. It's probably the one that's like this big.

[Commentator 1]

Gotta be, you know?

[Host 2]

And then you gotta love that he's smart enough to buy a burner phone or an alternate phone, but then he's writing emails on his iPad, like the most traceable thing you can do. What an idiot.

[Commentator 1]

It's crazy.

[Commentator 2]

So Tamara's like, are you guys still together?

[Commentator 1]

She's like, no.

[Commentator 2]

So you're divorced?

[Commentator 1]

Well, we're not legally divorced, you know, because California's like 50 50. And she basically is like, I did not want to give up, like, custody. So they basically stay together. They're still together, but they're in their own relationships purely so that way they don't have to have a custody agreement. Which was pretty interesting, I thought. And I mean, it looks like it works for them.

[Commentator 3]

So great.

[Vicki]

So Vicki's like, wait a minute. So does he live at the house of Rachel Bernardo? Would you living here?

[Host 2]

And she's like, no, we have another house that he lives in with his girlfriend.

[Vicki]

I hate that you want the house with him. And he's got another girl there. I don't like it. I don't like that.

[Commentator 3]

It's. It's a Rancho Bernardo thing. Vicki, he wouldn't get it.

[Commentator 1]

Something for us girlfriends who would know?

[Commentator 3]

It's. Sorry, Carmela, She's a little slow.

[Commentator 5]

Well, you know what?

[Host 2]

But I like his girlfriend, and she's nice to my kids. So Tamara's like, well, when you're in

[Commentator 7]

north Canada, did the kids stay with him?

[Host 2]

She's like, yeah, basically. You know, we'll.

[Vicki]

They'll all stay over. We share the kids.

[Host 2]

Everything's great. You know, even holidays. A girlfriend comes over, we all spend it together. And Vicki's like, whoa, that is a

[Vicki]

lot of dysfunction for a fourth, fifth, and sixth grader.

[Host 2]

Okay, Vicki, you hypocrite. Have you seen your own actions on this show? Please watch them again. Please watch this show again.

[Commentator 1]

Yeah. Also, didn't they give Katie Janela, like, a huge amount of. For the fact that she had a similar arrangement with the kids who were in San Diego and coming up here and going down to San Diego, and they're like. But now they're like, oh, cool.

[Commentator 3]

That's very cool of you, Kamala, because

[Commentator 1]

there's, like, you know, a football player involved. I think they're all like, wow.

[Host 2]

Well, they were shaming Katie Janela for losing or for one of her kids not wanting to live with her and going to live with her.

[Commentator 1]

But there was also some other stuff about, like, remember, there's the whole thing of, like, do you live in.

[Emily]

Do you live in San Diego, or do you live in Orange County? Which one is it?

[Commentator 1]

And she's like, well, I had residents down there, and we moved up. I was actually so stupid, I didn't even commit it all to memory.

[Host 2]

I think it was one of those where they were accusing her of trying to just move here to be on the show. Right? Which happened.

[Commentator 1]

Which is.

[Host 2]

It's like a big Potomac thing where people will fly in and get a. Get a house just to be on the show. But, yeah, so Gina's like, oh, my God, Where's Emily? We need a birthday queen. So is Hamburger Mary's. It's Bingo. It's Drag Queen Bingo. And here comes Emily.

[Emily]

Oh, whoa. I couldn't find any of you. I don't know why. Oh, my God. This is hilarious. You know, I feel like I got dropped off at one of the wrong places. And then I saw Victoria, and she looks just like Thelma Harper from Mama's family. And then Tamara and Vicky look like that they just escaped from hospice, and someone's looking for them.

[Host 2]

Is Thelma Harper Mama's name from Mama's family? Was that her name? God, I don't remember. I was so young. I thought you said that not her. It is Thelma Harper. How does new words Mama?

[Commentator 1]

I was a little. The only newer really has Mama. But yeah, She's Vicki.

[Host 2]

So they play bingo, and then she wins bingo, I think.

[Vicki]

Right.

[Host 2]

Doesn't Emily win bingo?

[Commentator 1]

Well, I think Heather actually wins it and gives her winning she. To Emily to claim.

[Host 2]

Oh, new hip.

[Commentator 5]

New hip.

[Host 2]

So she goes up and the drag queens. The drag queens are just wearing. The makeup is very confusing now. The drag queen trend in makeup that they just put a literal white gold almost triangle from their forehead down to their mouth. It's so weird. It's like a mask on top. Are you trying to rob a bank?

[Vicki]

What's happening?

[Host 2]

It looks like there was an old holiday makeup under an old, like, under other makeup. I don't understand what's happening.

[Commentator 3]

I wonder.

[Commentator 1]

I actually. I know that's, like, a thing. I do wonder. Is it like a. I wonder what the origins of that. Is it just like, a style thing or. Because, like, you know those. Like, old. Like, old movies when they have, like, a glamour shot of, like. Yeah, you know, whatever. Like a lady. They'll, like, have this light that'll just be. It's almost like a. It's almost like a shadow mask. Oh, yeah, yeah, Light. Beautiful light on your face. It's like.

[Commentator 3]

It's like, Robert, are you sure you want to leave?

[Commentator 1]

And so, like, I wonder if there's, like, any origins with that.

[Commentator 3]

I will find.

[Host 2]

I don't know, because I've noticed it's a drag thing. Like, it's a trend amongst drag queens, and I just don't know what it is. Although sometimes, if you get it, like, right in the right light, you're like, whoa. You know, it's like, right in the right light, in the right angle. It's like, oh, my God. You see something. It's like one of those pictures when you're passing. If you look really closely and focus your eyes a certain way or look at it a certain angle, you can suddenly see what it's supposed to be. I don't know. But anyway, it's interesting. So she wins, huh?

[Commentator 1]

I said we'll report back.

[Host 2]

Yeah, well, yeah, some drag queens will probably comment to us and make listen here. Yeah, I really am curious. Yeah. So then, let's see, what else? So they have fun at this drag party, and Emily is supposed to give a speech, but she thankfully doesn't. She's just like, thank you for this

[Commentator 6]

honor of turning 50. I look old. I feel old as, but I don't look old as.

[Host 2]

And everyone's like, yay.

[Commentator 3]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

So then afterwards, Emily's like, you know, I know.

[Emily]

It's just like the actual Number. When you say it, it just sounds old.

[Commentator 1]

Vicky's like, yeah, well, wait. Wait till you get to be 63 turning 64.

[Commentator 3]

Gina's like, wow. Well, I'm asking the elders at the table.

[Commentator 4]

And Heather's like, oh, how about wise people instead? Or rich people? I guess that's just me, but you know what I'm saying.

[Host 2]

I was gonna say you're at the wrong table, actually, for both of those things.

[Commentator 1]

Well, it is the wise. It is the wise table, because everyone

[Commentator 3]

going, why did you say that? Why would you do that? Why would you ever assume I would do such a thing?

[Host 2]

Hey, guys, let's give Emily advice on what it's like to be in your 50s.

[Commentator 7]

So Tamara's like, you know, I was in your 50s. You don't worry about the smile stuff. I feel like I thrive on my 50s than I did any other era of my life.

[Commentator 5]

Heather's like, wait, hold on a second. Being totally real here, everyone. Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do. The thing you have to be careful about in your 50s is your own brain, because hormones are different, and lifetimes gets a little bit tumultuous, and things shift in your friendships, in your relationship, and how you handle it and how you're. How you talk to yourself is going to define you. Will you have somebody there cleaning up your kitchen, or will you do it yourself? I say Alfredo for life. What am I, an idiot? God, I'm not dead. I'm 50.

[Commentator 4]

It's important to have your brain engaged. That's why when I ask Alfredo to mop the floor, I first scramble the words and then unscramble it for him and then say, mop the floor.

[Commentator 5]

When he unscrambles the words, they spell out mop the floor.

[Commentator 4]

We have a fun tradition where I. Where I basically turn mop the floor into a sudoku puzzle, and.

[Commentator 1]

And I just solve it, even though I already know the answer. I like when she says. She's saying, like, yeah, it's really important. Your brain changes, and you got to preserve your brain.

[Commentator 4]

And Jenny goes, good advice. Oh, Jen, it's too late for you.

[Commentator 1]

That thing went out the window at 18.

[Host 2]

Well, I'll tell you, when I turned 50, I thought I was old.

[Commentator 7]

And then I realized I'm not old.

[Host 2]

I'm just abandoned

[Commentator 3]

now in my 60s, you know, I hate the number, but I feel younger than I ever have.

[Commentator 2]

See, I'm a very. A very happy person in my 60s.

[Advertiser Grainger]

You.

[Commentator 3]

You can see that when you're in your 60s. You go on Dating shows. And while other people on the dating show get strapping young men, you get stuck with someone named Earl the Pearl who doesn't eat vegetables. So I love, I love being in my 60s. The options are wonderful.

[Commentator 7]

Okay, so you tell us, how are the sixties?

[Vicki]

I hate it. Hate it. It's terrible. Sucks because my brutality staring me in the face like, I could be dead soon. Like, this sucks.

[Commentator 2]

Don't say that.

[Commentator 1]

Camera's like, Vicky's talked about dying forever. And they show that, that hilarious clip when they were like in the middle of like Costa Rica or something. And Vicki turns around in the middle of the jungle goes, you guys, what's what?

[Commentator 4]

You know, what's gonna be sad is one day when one of us dies,

[Host 2]

one of us is gonna die. So Gina's like, well, Vicki, I felt it when I was turning 40.

[Commentator 7]

And like, shut up, stupid child.

[Commentator 5]

Oh, I think the 40s, what an amazing decade for women in your 40s. That's when your brains.

[Vicki]

Okay, Heather, wrap it up.

[Host 2]

Jesus Christ. We don't need a speech for every decade for sake.

[Commentator 4]

Ah, yes, in your 40s, because you're old enough to be an adult and to know yourself, but young enough to still say, gosh, I'm glad I don't

[Commentator 1]

look like Wendy Malik.

[Commentator 7]

And sometimes in your 40s, you get to marry the man of your dreams, Latina.

[Commentator 5]

Oh, yes.

[Host 2]

And Jen's like, well, or you don't marry the man of your dreams. And that's okay if you don't marry the man of your dreams, because sometimes the man of your dreams isn't really ready to be married yet. And you'll be married when the time is right.

[Commentator 1]

And Carmel's like, yeah, I've dated somebody on and off for the last decade. So we're in a rebuild trust situation.

[Commentator 3]

Oh my God. Why are we rebuilding trust? Can I ask that?

[Commentator 1]

It's like because of infidelity. Yeah, yeah. She's almost like saying it. Like, I mean, obviously I feel like Carmela is almost like, like, isn't this cool? I have a storyline. I have a storyline built in. This is what you guys are all going to get to see is me trying to decide if I can trust my boyfriend. It's pretty cool, right?

[Host 2]

Niche. So there she's like, don't worry, it wasn't me who cheated.

[Commentator 7]

Well, wait, was it long term or super?

[Host 2]

It was just a one night stand. And Heather's like, wait a minute, did

[Commentator 5]

he give you the ring? Or was that your. Your ex husband?

[Vicki]

Your kind of ex husband who cheated which one was it?

[Host 2]

She's like, no. Yeah, they both cheated, and it's been an internal struggle. You know, you're gonna hear about it. Shannon's like, well, well, to me, that. I mean, cheating, that's a. That's a red flag. Oh, oh, did he find the slut on the beach?

[Commentator 7]

Did she have blonde hair?

[Host 2]

And is she trying to get on this show right now?

[Commentator 3]

Wow. This is a new one. The slut getting cheated on with another slot.

[Commentator 2]

Wow.

[Commentator 3]

Call that redemption. So Tamara's like, yeah, that's a big red flag.

[Commentator 1]

It's like, well, I'm not understanding, Carmelo doll.

[Commentator 4]

Her ex husband cheated on her.

[Commentator 1]

She's got four kids, and she's, like, moving around a lot. Like, Lord knows I haven't always been stable with my decisions, but we have a responsibility with our children.

[Commentator 4]

So I don't know, like, how her

[Commentator 1]

children are going to be affected by all of this. Like, why don't you be concerned about how, like, the kids that are growing up under the reign of Ryan, who wouldn't let you put someone put their shoes up on a sofa?

[Host 2]

Yeah. Maybe you should go check Brianna's essential oils, Paige.

[Commentator 1]

Yeah, and her.

[Host 2]

The nurse giving medical advice to use essential oils to get rid of all of your medical ills. Give me a break, lady. And it's just Vicki, you know, and it's like, this time that we're living in, do we really just need Vicki's moralizing and shit back? I just don't need to hear it from Vicki, you know, and waving at the airplane in Mexico, like, bye, stupid people.

[Vicki]

I'll pay you later for that foot job.

[Host 2]

Get away from here. Get away from here.

[Host 1]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

So Carmela's saying, you know, she loves Danny and that's the reason why he's here. And she. And she believes that he's sorry, and she believes he's changing. And she struggles getting over what took place because especially after she left a marriage with four children for that very same reason. Well, Carmela, it might be time to work on yourself and why you like to go with cheaters. I mean, the first one we get, because he was like, choose to go with.

[Host 2]

They cheat on you.

[Commentator 1]

No, I know, but, like. But she's still going back to this guy after he cheated. It's like, I think. I think. I think he cheated. I think move on just because I know it's gonna be a whole season of, like, I'm just, like, trying to rebuild, tries. And I don't know if I can trust you.

[Emily]

And I don't know if I can.

[Commentator 8]

I don't know.

[Commentator 1]

It's like, leave him to start fresh start, find a new one.

[Host 2]

Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I don't know her well enough to care that much yet. Not to you, by the way. Just to this.

[Commentator 1]

No, no, no. I just, like, I'm laughing because I know at one point you will get to know her well enough and you still won't care.

[Host 2]

Yeah, I mean, I just, I don't, I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I don't care right now though.

[Commentator 7]

Here comes one right now.

[Host 2]

One thing my mom loves is to bargain hunt. She will go to a garage sale, to a flea market, any old sale at the mall. I' her from sale to sale to sale to sale, and I finally found someplace online that I can just park her and she'll have the time of her life. And that is whatnot.

[Commentator 1]

Whatnot is an app that does live shopping. There's a whole community there on whatnot. You're connecting with sellers and other shoppers and it's kind of like hanging out with the group that gets you. And this is like a really fun way to shop.

[Host 2]

You never pay full price. Sarah, you can shop name brands across makeup, perfume, clothes, handbags, jewelry, and more,

[Vicki]

all with without the sticker shock.

[Host 2]

It's the best place to find great deals on products you love.

[Commentator 1]

And there are amazing sellers with great great taste and they're going live all the time, like 24 7. You can comment in real time and they'll just show you like close up of clothes. You'll be like, hey, can I get, Can I see that a little bit closer? I want to see that detail on that shirt. And they will show it to you

[Host 2]

because it's real time and you can sell too. Do you have clothes, bags or accessories sitting in your closet that you don't reach for anymore? Whatnot makes it easy to turn them into cash. Connect with shoppers who share your style and have fun going live while doing it.

[Commentator 1]

[Michaels Advertiser]

This episode is sponsored by Michaels, your destination for all things birthday parties. We just had Lucky's first birthday, and it was so great to be able to go into Michael's and get everything. Of course, I knew they had craft supplies there, but I didn't realize how expansive their party supplies were. And Michael's really is where you can go to get everything for a party, whether you're planning a kid's birthday or even an adult celebration. They've got over 4,500 party supplies, more than 60 different themes, and prices starting at just 99 cents. Plus, they've recently lowered prices on hundreds of items. We found adorable decorations, balloons, everything we needed to pull the party together without making a bunch of different shopping trips. Plus, I always have a good time going to Michael's. I love shopping there. I could just browse the aisles forever. But if you're short on time, like I always seem to be, you can also get same day delivery or buy online and pick up at the store. They even offer free helium inflation on select balloon styles, which is such a lifesaver. And it was for our party, truly. So if you got a birthday coming up or just a celebration, remember Michaels everything. To celebrate anything, visit Michaels in store or shop online now.

[Host 2]

So Jen's like, well, okay, Heather, I

[Commentator 5]

want to talk about something.

[Host 2]

You know, I feel bad.

[Commentator 5]

It wasn't my.

[Host 2]

Sorry, that's Sheena's line. It wasn't my space to feel. To share with Tamara a conversation that you and I had.

[Commentator 5]

I appreciate you saying that. Okay, Flora, mop. Well, no, Rearrange.

[Host 2]

Rearrange.

[Commentator 4]

Okay, Jen, we're gonna do a quick word scramble. Can you figure it out? The letters are P, M, O, pmo, ump.

[Commentator 3]

No.

[Commentator 4]

Scramble it.

[Commentator 1]

Rescramble it.

[Commentator 3]

No.

[Commentator 4]

One more try.

[Commentator 3]

Mop.

[Commentator 4]

There you go. Okay. As requested.

[Commentator 1]

Here it is. You can wipe this up.

[Commentator 4]

Thank you.

[Commentator 5]

No, you're supposed to say po, because you are.

[Commentator 4]

Okay, you can add the top of that. I'm po.

[Commentator 5]

So, you know, quite frankly, I put on this party and spent lot of time a. A lot of money, and then you

[Host 2]

put my name in your mouth and

[Commentator 5]

you're sort of teaching how we're going to be together. And if we have a conversation and I feel like you're going to twist

[Host 2]

it, and she's like, well, you know, you were talking about not having a buddy. I mean, do you not feel close to Tamara? That's why Tamara comes up. That's why she came up. Okay, but that's also another thing that she said to you privately that you're bringing up.

[Commentator 4]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

Also, what I loved about this. What's really not. You have to really be seeing this. You have to have, like an eagle eye to see this because it was not highlighted. But, like, Jen started to say something in middle of Heather's little monologue here, and Heather sort of put her hand forward. She did like the. Like the. The Gandalf, you shall not pass. But in Heather speak, that. That was. That hand was doing the.

[Commentator 4]

My turn, still me.

[Commentator 1]

And I was like, it's back. She's like, nope, you do not get to talk.

[Commentator 4]

Here is my palm. I am stopping your words. My turn.

[Vicki]

So I just love this stuff. Just boys by ass. It's just. It's just boys by ass.

[Host 2]

Can we just judge somebody for being,

[Vicki]

you know, a terrible mother? Can we go back to that?

[Commentator 1]

So now Heather does the thing. She does the variation of the claw hands, where she puts her claw hands together almost as if she is building a trinket. She goes.

[Commentator 4]

It gets twisted and repeated. And you bring it up and then you repeat what I'm talking about, but you're bringing her up. Do you understand? Okay, the new word is O R O M B. O R O M B. Jen, can you fix. Figure that out?

[Host 2]

I'm a mop.

[Commentator 4]

Boomer.

[Host 2]

I'm a mop.

[Commentator 4]

Broom. Broom. The word is broom.

[Commentator 3]

Sweep.

[Commentator 7]

I'm here right now. I can hear them talking. Why the heck not? I can't hear nothing. I can hear.

[Commentator 5]

And Heather's like, do you understand what I am saying? Poor person.

[Host 2]

She's like, yeah, I do. I understand.

[Commentator 5]

Well, you feel certain ways that you think I'm feeling, and I don't feel that way. And if we're both venting about something, that doesn't mean I have a global issue with someone.

[Commentator 3]

Well, then don't share with me how.

[Commentator 1]

Don't share with me your real feelings. Which is so funny. Jen, who has been like, I just think we should all be out in

[Commentator 4]

the open about what we feel and say now.

[Commentator 3]

She's like, well, then stop sharing with

[Commentator 4]

me how you really feel.

[Commentator 5]

But then stop asking me.

[Host 2]

Because the whole point, the whole thing came from Jen badgering Heather with questions and then using the answers against her. So she says she likes Jen, but

[Commentator 5]

I feel the wind taken out of my sails. So I'm putting her in the stepping

[Commentator 4]

back box, and then I'm pushing that box off the end of a pier.

[Commentator 1]

So then Jen is like, who is Heather?

[Commentator 3]

And if you're doing this to Tamara,

[Commentator 4]

what are you doing?

[Commentator 1]

Behind my back, she. I feel like Heather doesn't even care enough. I mean, the. I mean, Heather. Heather did some casual behind the back stuff with Jen a few years ago, and she was like, I saw her

[Commentator 4]

at the department store and she was trying to buy a Dolce and Gabbana dress. I said, H m is that way.

[Commentator 1]

So Jen is like, I have no

[Commentator 4]

right to use any of your words

[Commentator 3]

that you share with me and anything that. That you share with any of us girls and what you have with Tamara is your business and it's not mine.

[Commentator 4]

Thank you. Thank you for acknowledging that.

[Commentator 6]

Okay, now that you guys are done, I need to talk to Tamara about the podcast thing. I don't want to have something that's detrimental to us. We've been friends. And you're upset because I posted and say, we moved our own feed and I didn't say thank you.

[Commentator 7]

She's like, right, yeah, that's about right. You damn bitch.

[Commentator 6]

Said, well, I did that because I heart. Texted me and said, could you post this? So I literally did something I was asked to do.

[Emily]

I just thought it was a business logistical thing. And I just asked her what was asked of me.

[Commentator 2]

She's like, okay, well, I went, summon slack.

[Commentator 3]

I'm not on your feed. I'm not like, I'm not like that. Like, but yeah, you are. I'm like, my concern is, it's just. Just like, it's grateful. That's it.

[Commentator 2]

Like, that grateful.

[Commentator 3]

And so, like, you know, you don't

[Commentator 2]

go to the Grammys and just say, I did it myself. No, there's a thank you speech. You do.

[Commentator 1]

I was like, okay, let's.

[Commentator 3]

Let's.

[Commentator 1]

Let's relax, Bonnie. Rach. Okay, you're not the Grammys. You're not getting a Grammy. Okay? Like, this is not. You're not. You're not one of, like, the major awards. You just have, like. Like, you just have a shady reality TV podcast like the rest of us.

[Host 2]

And so Emily is like, well, I'm

[Commentator 6]

trying to get to the point where we're respecting and not yelling, but you have to admit that was mean.

[Commentator 7]

She goes, okay, that was mean. Being able to. Would you not also acknowledge that you were still on our feed?

[Host 2]

Yeah, that is kind of an important point that she went on there.

[Commentator 6]

So we're not even on your feed. What are you talking about?

[Host 2]

When they literally were, you know, Emily. Emily does have. Have a problem with the truth sometimes.

[Commentator 1]

This.

[Host 2]

And she's still not gonna admit it.

[Commentator 1]

Is this RSS fight is really. It's. It's it's real. It's real. It's a real humdinger.

[Commentator 3]

So Gina's like, but whether she does or not, like, why would you want to cut her?

[Commentator 1]

And Tamara's like, well, why would she

[Commentator 2]

not be grateful to me?

[Emily]

She's like, I am grateful. We can just support each other and say, you're doing great, I'm doing great. We're both benefiting from it.

[Commentator 2]

Yeah, because I make money off you.

[Commentator 6]

Good one.

[Host 2]

Because your whole argument has been that you really don't make money off of her. I don't know.

[Vicki]

It's like, what? Like a little bit.

[Commentator 1]

Thank me.

[Host 2]

Yeah. And so Emily says that she. That she thinks that Tamara is jealous of her success. Emily. No, no, I don't. I don't even really know what to say to that except look for another answer because that's not the one. And she's like, why else would you

[Commentator 6]

be so vindictive and mean about something that's doing well?

[Host 2]

Because you accused her of going to bloggers last year at the end of the season and turned on her. That's why. Why are you acting like this came out of left field? It was like a, you know, get back to you for the shitty things that you did to her. Do you not remember this? And siding with Gretchen, of all people.

[Commentator 6]

Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

So they basically apologize and they decide they're just gonna move forward, and then.

[Commentator 2]

So what are we arguing about?

[Commentator 1]

She's like, we're not.

[Commentator 3]

Oh. So Gina's like, you know, it's like, I'm gonna give you something, weaponize it, and then, like, make you say thank you. And, like, I honestly feel like Emily's showing so much restraint as, like, a 50 year old, like, because, like, 49 year old Emily would have, like, dragged Tamara across the table, but now that she's 50, she's, like, old and decrepit and she doesn't even rem name anymore, probably.

[Commentator 7]

I'm sorry for what I say when I was angry. It wasn't an accurate thing to say.

[Commentator 6]

Thank you.

[Commentator 7]

And the thing is, if you don't have. If you don't have a good product, it's not gonna work. But you do, which is why you're not on our feet anymore. Congratulations.

[Emily]

Thank you for acknowledging it. It does very, very well. Annabelle says it's her least favorite podcast, which means it's got to be pretty good.

[Commentator 7]

Yeah.

[Commentator 3]

Like, this is how mature woman handle things. Okay. Women of a certain age.

[Host 2]

So now they sing Happy Birthday to Emily and Tamara has a knife, and

[Commentator 6]

Emily's like, you might want to take that away from Tamara.

[Host 2]

And they all cheers. And Emily's like, cheers to being 50, not fat.

[Commentator 1]

And she also does one of those, like, silly, oversized bites, you know, because, like, Emily's. Emily's whole thing is to be. Be silly with food, which probably speaks to a larger issue, but she's just being all goofy with her cake again. And then Tam is like, by the

[Commentator 3]

way, you never look better. Yeah.

[Commentator 1]

And so then Tam is like, this is by.

[Commentator 2]

By the way, this is for you. These are my pewds.

[Commentator 1]

And she takes, like, some of the wick hair she stopped in her crotch and give it to Emily. And on that note, the episode ends.

[Host 1]

That's it. So Real Housewives of Orange county, everybody,

[Host 2]

thank you so much for being here. It's a weekend. You think about that.

[Commentator 1]

It's the weekend we made it. And guess what? I'm actually just. I'm gonna go to Orange county right now, believe it or not. So I'm really into this immersive crappings experience. I went to Santa Clarita. Now I'm going to Orange County. I just want to make sure I'm one with all the geographical locations.

[Commentator 6]

I love that.

[Host 2]

Well, have a good time.

[Commentator 1]
