Rather Be Rotting
Rather Be Rotting is the ultimate escape for pop culture obsessives and reality TV junkies. Hosted by two sisters who’d always rather be rotting on the couch, this show is a love letter to Bravo marathons, niche celebrity drama, and the kind of useless-but-essential pop culture knowledge that clogs their brains (and now, your ears). Whether they’re deep-diving into reality TV chaos or spiraling over a red carpet moment, these two are here to talk about everything that doesn't matter—but means everything to them.
Rather Be Rotting
13 - Hunting Wives, RHOM, RHOC, The Valley, Big Brother, 90 Day HEA
Lil and Madelyn get into their thoughts about The Hunting Wives, The Bear, and overly spicy food. They also, of course, chat about the currently airing shows (Big Brother, The Valley, The Real Housewives of Orange County, The Real Housewives of Miami, and 90 Day Happily Ever After), as well as a bit about the penultimate episode of And Just Like That. They also chat about calluses, women's reproductive care, and spinoffs (spoiler alert, they're sick of them)!
Welcome to Rather Be Rotting, where two sisters who should really be doing something more productive dissect all things reality, TV, and pop culture chaos, because no matter what's going on in life, we would always rather be rotting. Hello. Hi, Lil. Nice to see you. Same. How was your week? Tell me everything. It was pretty good. The moms left, and now I'm just chilling. Did you go see the show a second time? No. Sorry. We didn't make it to the show, but we did see Naked Gun. Oh, how was it? I thought it was so good. I don't know what that says about me. Usually I don't like stupid humor, but... I loved it. I think I might go see it tomorrow. Oh please do. Will you go with your husband? Yeah. He wants to see it. But I will say like you were like oh there's no action but I saw the preview again and there was some shooting. I mean if there's any shooting it's like a joke. I promise you. There is some shooting but they like make a joke out of it. Okay. I promise like there is nothing serious about that movie. Not one thing. Except The chemistry between Pamela and Liam. Did you laugh? I laughed the whole time. Oh, okay. Like chortling. And I looked over at my guy and he was, you know, shoulder shaking. Shimmying them shoulders, yeah. Yeah. And my mom next to me, our mom, she's your mom too. She is. She was giggling too. Nice. Okay. And then, yeah, I think we'll go see it. I feel like when I recommend something, I'm like, I don't want to overhype it because if you hate it, then it's like, oh, but you said it was so good. It's dumb comedy. It's very dumb. Warning, it's dumb. But somehow it just worked. Like, I don't like dumb stuff usually, but. Well, mom said she was entertained as well. Yeah. I mean, it was very, I thought like the writing was so good because it was just nonstop jokes. Great. I would recommend. I'll go and I'll see it. So how was your date night? You're fresh off a date night. We just came back from a Korean place here in Montclair. It was good. I got some really spicy noodles with like cheese melted on top. No meats? No meats. Why? Because I saw it and I thought that looks really good. And so I got it. Interesting. And it was spicy, you said? Yeah, so spicy. Spicy cheesy noodles. Yeah. Very interesting. It's like a Korean street food situation. I wish you would have sent me a picture. I did think to do that and then I failed and I'm sorry that I failed you. It's rude as hell. But on the walk home, I felt incredibly uncomfortable and I wasn't sure why because it wasn't like the portion was massive, but I realized it's because I was chugging water between every bite because it was so spicy. I know it well. It's like the waiter came over and was like, how is everything? And I look up at him with tears in my eyes and snotty nose and I go, it's so good. So now do you understand why I like to eat things that make me cry? Like, I get it, but the things that are worth it to me are so few. Like, this is a rare occurrence. Yeah, I guess you're right. Because typically, like one time I ordered ramen in Los Angeles and I had been burned with like the level of spiciness before. So I like kicked it up a few notches and it was so awful. Like I could not even enjoy it. Like I couldn't tell the flavor existed. So I feel most things that are too spicy are that way. But like, this was the perfect balance of like, it was, I was uncomfortable, but I could also still enjoy the flavor. And what did your husband think? You know, this isn't going to come as a big surprise, but he did feel like it was overpriced for what he got. Match. Yeah, but in fairness... Is there anything that he thinks is a good value in this world? Yeah, definitely. Name them. I can't name them right now. Name them. Nothing is coming... Name them. Okay. Name them. Nothing is coming to mind at this exact moment, but I know there are things. There aren't. But anyway, I feel like we need to talk about Hunching Lives. I've watched two episodes. Same. Exactly two. But I kind of know... What happens in the whole series? Oh yeah, I know everything. And I've seen a lot of things. Well, what are your thoughts? I think it looks... I mean, so far it's been salacious, all the things, but I can't look away. And I know what's coming, and I want to keep watching. I still want to see it. Do you know what? I don't think I'm going to continue. Why? Because of the wigs? Yeah. The wig work? It's really bad. I've said this before. It's definitely giving Nicole Kidman a run for her money. No doubt. I think that. What's her name? Malin. What's her last name? Malin Ackerman. Malin. It's Malin. It is. We've all been saying Malin all this time. I have too. My first instinct is to say Malin. I like Malin better personally, but Malin. Well, I think something somewhere. Wasn't she like Swedish or something? There you go. Well, whatever. Her wig might be the worst wig I've ever seen in my life. I know. I really thought. I really thought I'd seen bad. Like, what's her face from 90 Day Fiancé? Sophie? Sophie's was bad. Shekinah's was bad. This? And the ginge. The ginger in this show. Yeah, also really bad. Like, what are they doing? And you know they have enough budget to, like, do better. Maybe they don't. Maybe wigs are really expensive. Well, what's wrong with their natural hair? Great cue. Like, why? Why? It feels unnecessary. Malin, I'm sure, has beautiful hair on her own. She does. We've seen it. Yeah. So that is... But that can't be the reason you're not going to watch is because you don't like the girl sex. I don't mind that. I just... I can't explain it. I don't feel like I need to keep watching it. Now that I know what happens, like, it didn't... I didn't feel like the acting was good enough. It wasn't giving me enough. Like, I just... I mean, it's really dumb, but I just feel like it's something that I'm going to be able to take down very quickly and very easily. I also feel maybe it's because the idea of all of that is so not me. Well, duh. Of course not. It wasn't Brittany Snow either until it was. I just can't get into chicks that are hunting and... I don't know. I don't know. I just don't think I'm going to finish. I feel like hunting is the least of what they're doing. I'm aware. You have your right to not finish. There's another show I'm not going to finish. What? My husband and I made a decision. The studio? Can I try to guess? Sure. Okay, is it something I've seen? Is it something I recommended? There's multiple seasons. We're not going to continue with this season. The Bear! The Bear! Oh, actually that was easy to guess because it sucks. Yeah. So that validates our choice. I feel you saying that. How far did you get? We didn't. So you didn't even start it? No, we just were like staring down the list of things we needed to watch. And I kept saying the bear's back, the bear's back. And he's like, you know, I don't think I want to take that journey this season. And I was like, you know what? I don't think I do either. I mean, we haven't even finished the finale. Like it was... You know, the finale is supposed to be a moment you're eagerly anticipating, and we just have not picked it back up. Yeah. That's kind of how we did what happened with Yellow Jackets for us. We just didn't. You know, season three, we just didn't. You fall off shows. You know, honestly, back in the day, I fell off Mad Men. I never finished Mad Men. And if you fall off, you know, maybe it wasn't good enough. I can't speak for Mad Men, but the bear deserves to be fallen off. Yeah.
UNKNOWN:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:it didn't hold me i didn't like last season no i'm just like still pissed i'm still have a grudge because if last season was nominated for emmys up against fucking hacks yeah that's a joke like that makes the emmys feel like a joke like why are you nominating this show at all let alone for a comedy like i know i can't stop talking about it but fuck you know what should have been nominated for a comedy was real housewives of salt lake city I was just thinking today about how much I miss those ladies and how much I love them and how they're the light of my life. Well, we got a little teaser. We did, the fishing. A little 30-second teaser. Does that count as a teaser? It wasn't like a preview, really. No, but it was a teaser. That's what I'm hearing it called. I was happy to see them at the Las Culturistas Awards, just to see them. Yeah. I just miss them dearly. I just think no one does it like them. And is it too far of a stretch to say no one ever has? I mean, when we think about like old school Roni, though. Old school New York is really could is like the only thing that I think can compete. It's elite. If we put them head to head, I don't know who will win, but. Couldn't tell you. And honestly, Vanderpump, original Vanderpump. Sometimes I watch that to fall asleep, to just like bring peace to my soul while I fall asleep. I don't blame you. And you know what? Honestly, old school Orange County, now that I'm there, has been truly an incredible ride. You're welcome. It's not like I did it because you told me to. I always meant to. Yeah, but you put Orange County off. Speaking of old school... Roni... Carol Radziwill came back to life. The Ghost of Christmas Past. I didn't watch it, but I did hear about it, and I just don't really think it means a whole lot of anything. No, I don't think it means anything, but I think it was nice to see she and Andy kind of mended fences. Yeah, it's heartwarming. I thought she looked great. Yeah, definitely. Speaking of mending fences, I would just like to say that it's very sad what happened to Kelly Clarkson's ex. R.I.P. And I hope that they were able to mend their fences before he passed. And those kids are so cute. The thought of them not having their dad is just devastating. That is really sad. I think there's a chance they mended fences when they realized maybe like how sick he was because the lawsuit, their divorce was really ugly and whatever lawsuit there was got dropped and... They were suing each other. Yeah, like a year ago that got dropped. Yeah. I was stunned. Me too. Stunned. Because I knew that she left for some reason. Like, she took some time off. I never could have imagined. Well, she said he was sick. Well, she said that one day ago. Yeah. But, like, a couple months ago she took time off of her show and no one knew why. Oh. So then, you know, this happened yesterday and I'm like, an illness? Wow. Hmm. And literally... Like that. So sad. You know what else is a lot less sad but also made me sad? Seeing what they fucking did to Carrie's apartment on And Just Like That. Does that summarize your feelings on the finale? Well, it's a two-part finale. Whatever this was was trash. And I feel like I'm speaking out of both sides of my mouth because on one hand I'm feeling more devastated that it's over. It's really sinking in that I'm not going to be with these people again. I'm like such a community, you know, I feel like when I'm watching it. I feel like I'm watching with the world. Like we're all watching this together. Sure. And going through the roller coaster together. And I watched this episode and it was just like, this is really how you want to go out. Like this mediocre bullshit. And I'm sure you saw, this is the second time she's referenced her relationship with Aiden as being 22 years. And you take issue with that? Do you not? I don't care enough, honestly. She is trying to say she tops everyone else's relationships. Like, hey, I got 22 years. Hey, beat 22 years. Yeah, you can't say that. That's just not accurate. Carrie, you've got to be kidding me. You've got to stop. You've got to stop. Do you think Kim Cattrall will come back for the final finale? No. Absolutely, she won't. I mean, I don't know what they're going to give us, but I can't imagine it's going to save whatever they just did last week. And it's funny because the week before that, I thought was really good. I know you did. I thought that was very surprising. I really liked it. It felt like I was watching Sex and the City and I really liked it. This week, there was an interesting storyline of Charlotte's child, Rob. They, them? Yeah, in Thoroughly Modern Millie, like in a beautiful dress. I did see that on TikTok. And how Charlotte just looked at them as they were so beautiful. And Charlotte didn't know if she could say that they looked beautiful. And I thought that that was like a really interesting thing to explore. And I kind of want to see where that goes. I feel like they should have done that earlier. But it's something that probably any parent of a non-binary child might go through. Totally. Totally. And, you know, you might accept your child for who they are, of course, but then you still wonder when you see that, you know. Yeah, totally. Like in a different universe, this is what my child would be. Yeah. And it's just, it's just interesting. Totally. Did you see the Office spinoff trailer? No, I haven't seen it yet. Does it look good? It looks fine. I don't know. I'll try it, but I don't think we're going to, you know, I think these spinoffs are getting like a little out of hand. I think they've been out of hand for like the last five to ten years, honestly. Yeah. Like, you know, if Andress like that taught us anything. I mean, I don't see anything wrong with leaving something as it is and just preserving it and going back and enjoying it. Like, no one's stopping you from watching The Regular Office. Why do you need more? Why do we need another Freaky Friday? I know nobody's stopping me because I watch it all the time. Exactly. Yeah, I mean, don't even get me started on what I think Disney is. doing at this time there's got to be more creative people in this world i mean i'm not one of them but it's just really disappointing yeah i mean i'm will i go see freaky friday 2 in theaters probably yeah probably will i enjoy it absolutely not you never know i've seen reviews oh no are they bad yeah oh darn that's too bad Yeah, they literally called it a money grab for people who just are nostalgic for the first one. I mean, honestly, you probably could say the same thing about Happy Gilmore 2. Yeah, no, I agree. But at least that one was, like, straight to Netflix. Yeah, totally. This one should have been straight to Disney+. Anyway, should we get to our shows that really matter? Yes, because I'm dying to hear your thoughts on Big Brother. Oh my gosh, this was a historic episode. Don't you think? I don't think that's ever happened before. Somebody trying to change their vote? Yeah. Not that I can recall. And just having someone, I've never seen someone so unsure in the moment also. Do you think it like broke Julie's brain? Yeah. When Ashley tried to change her vote? Yeah, she's like, no, no, no. And Ashley can't hear her anymore. No, I was like, she's going to short circuit. What did you think? I have some issues because I'm on TikTok and there's so many people on TikTok that are really good at watching the live feeds and keeping us up to date with what is happening on the live feeds. I know now that the editing was all kinds of messed up. On what? For what? When they presented the way that vince told mickey she should put up jimmy and then keanu like confirmed what he had been doing you following i didn't think there was anything wrong with the way that well i'm there i'm gonna tell you but okay you know how that happened yes so the order was reversed keanu had that conversation with mickey right after the veto competition he told her first that jimmy was playing both sides of the house But the edit is trying to spin it and make it look like Vince was the one who came up with that. But that is not what happened. And also in the live feeds, Mickey and Morgan had already been talking about how they were pissed about shit Jimmy was doing. They've been talking about that. I've seen them talking about that. He really screwed them like dirt, honestly. I just feel like the edit... It was not accurate. So you're saying Keanu came to her with this idea and then Vince did, but does it matter the order of operations? Yeah, because I don't understand why the editors are trying to make Vince look like the major strategic player of the season when that's not what's happening. Just show us the truth.
UNKNOWN:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:because it's annoying because they're trying to manipulate us as viewers but there are live feeds and like now more than ever there's tiktok people to share the information of what's happening on the live feeds for those who can't watch them all the time so it's like who have lives you correct i guess so it's like what are you trying why are you doing that you know and you know what it it really shows other ones like Survivor, Traitors, Rhinoswives, blah, blah, blah. If there were live feeds, I mean, you would be watching a completely different show. We're watching the shows that the producers want us to see, which is fine because they want us to see entertainment. You can't do that when there's also live feeds accompanying the show. Yeah. So are you saying Keanu is kind of smart? Yeah.
UNKNOWN:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:And you know what I thought? Okay, when Keanu won the veto and literally nobody clapped for him, which I thought was rude as hell. Like, what has he done really that bad? No, nothing. But like, you could be polite and no one said anything. So he said, are you going to give me that medal or not? And Ava went off on him. I mean, I don't think that he deserved that. No, I agree because he said, don't you have a prompt? Yeah. In a way that I felt was rude so like i kind of oh i agree with both sides i think it's rude as hell that nobody clapped for him but he did not need to talk to her like that I mean, I think that he just was like, you know, because she's just sitting there too not cheering for him. And he's like, okay, well, if no one's going to fucking cheer for me, don't you have a prompt? She wasn't cheering for him either. And she wasn't moving the show along. So were they all just supposed to stand there in painful, awkward silence? That's really insulting to Keanu. He's still a human being. Again, I'd be curious to see how it really played out. What if he said that like two seconds after he won? We just don't know. We just don't know. But from what I saw... I'm on Team Keanu from what I was shown. That's shocking because last week you hated his guts. I just didn't hate him. I just said I would like die if I had to be in a room with him for five minutes or something. Does that still stand? I could probably last like 15 before I passed. Okay. What do you think of Ava rocking on that hammock like a magic carpet?
UNKNOWN:Okay.
SPEAKER_01:it and honestly whatever's gonna stop riley from kissing that beautiful girl that man is so grody i don't understand something really mean because we're really talking about his looks but i also don't really like his personality a lot of his looks are personal choices like the mustache for example and the curly mullet type yeah like that is within your control sir I will say that, like, I hated him. I could not hate him more when he was going off on Mickey. I'm like, it's a game. It's a game. I'm yelling at the TV. And then I have never done a 180 so fast as when he's crying to Mickey, like, taking full accountability, what felt like a really genuine apology. And maybe it was because he didn't want to get put on the block, but, like, he really realized that he had an outburst, and I appreciated that. You're not buying it? It's just tough because, again, like I know on the live feeds, he's done a lot of and said a lot of things that are, like, creepy. Which I don't doubt because just that outburst made me feel, like, icky about him. But everyone says that they like him. Like, Mickey seems to actually like him. Catherine, for some unknown reason. Like, what is going on there? Dude, I don't know. She's a bitch, but, like. And they don't. dig enough into that because there's so much on the live feeds like are they are they actually hot and heavy he is and like from what i can tell from the live feeds it looks like she's like indifferent so i'm like why is she still hanging around and then if people are like she's so uncomfortable she's obviously so uncomfortable like then why is she still sitting there like she could leave yeah but i feel like maybe he would follow her she doesn't have to be cuddling No, she doesn't. But, like, I saw when he was, like, hugging her, he was kind of, like, leaning in. And she, like, turned her face away. I don't know. So I do think that she's not into him like that. Well, she might just be bored. They do get bored. And when they're bored, they do crazy shit. Yeah. Like, that's not the first Beauty and Beast hookup in that house. No. Nor will it be the last. We have seen some wild combinations. Why yold? We have... RIP to Prison Mike. I will not miss his terrible line reading in the diary room. Were you so happy to see him go? I was pretty happy. Honestly, of the three of them, I would have been happy to see any of them go. Did you see like when he found out that he was nominated? He started like putting on chapstick. No. He was like shocked. But then he was like putting on chapstick. Oh, you know what? I did see that. I thought like it would be me. I was like, if I knew how to make a meme, this would be a great meme. I'm never not putting on chapstick, so that would be me. How do we feel about Mickey? I like her. I can't decide. I think I like her. I mean, I keep going back and forth on her. I don't know who her allies are going to be now. Well, Morgan and Vince. And it seems like Riley, honestly. But is it Vince and Riley? Like, I don't know. I guess we'll see. I thought it was Cuckoo Lulu when she asked Kelly to keep herself on the block, even if she won veto. I love when Kelly was saying over and over, like, it's my birthday and the editors throw in the happy birthday. I know they do dirty. So funny. I liked when Mickey said, like, America probably thinks I'm a bitch. Oh, well, there are worse things. Facts. But I felt like, did you notice there was, like, a lot of crying? Yeah. From the men? Yeah. And then did you notice that they only showed that Laura girl one time? I'm sorry, two times. Two times in three episodes. Is she even here? That girl is a nothing. I'm sorry. At least on the television, she's a nothing. I'm sure she has a beautiful... life and spirit but i'm just like not sure there's a lot going on upstairs the fashion did you notice at one point prison mike was wearing rachel's ugly shirt that he laughed at i did not see that oh but that's really good did you notice rachel's evening gown her third or fourth evening gown i didn't notice that it was like floral and white she wore it on eviction night when she was like running around yes yes yes yes it's like it was like flamenco Kind of. It was white and floral. I thought it was more bridal than anything. The ruffles are what made me feel flamenco. Maybe. But it's just like, how did she fit so many in her Mary Poppins suitcase? You know they get more than one suitcase. How did she fit so many in her two Mary Poppins suitcases? Unclear. So, Rachel, did she really think that she was going to get the votes to keep him? Because he seemed to know he was leaving. Like, he wore that Reputation Era outfit. I don't know, but I thought the argument to get rid of Kelly was actually pretty valid. Yeah, I agree. Wait, who won the Blockbuster? Riley. That's right. I'm liking it. I'm liking the Cs. It's giving me a lot to ponder and laugh at. I'm liking little Ava. Yeah. Magic carpet flying... Angel. She was just like, that's how bored they get that they would entertain the idea of being romantic with Riley and they would turn their hammock into a magic carpet. If it were me, I think I'd be on the magic carpet. You wouldn't be romancing some uggo? Oh my god, that was so mean. But no, I wouldn't. Cut that out. I'm not leaving it in. You don't know what you would be doing by day 50. Eating. yeah i would get really fat but maybe i would get a lot more steps who's to say i would not um do you want to hop over to the bravo sphere would you rather take a stop at happily ever after just take a quick stop at happily ever after this season is just like doing so little for me i don't mind it i mean actually maybe you're right looking thinking about everything that happened yara got a puppy shocker Named Mila. Named Mila. That's going to be not confusing at all when their kid's name is Myla. I thought Lauren taking the pictures and Yara just saying how terrible they are was pretty funny. But, like, Lauren knows how to not cut somebody's head off. She's like, I'm not a professional. I'm like, okay, but you can take a picture of their head. You can take a picture of the label. I mean, and she has, like, a legit camera, so... Yeah, I mean, that does most of the work for you. You just have to know how to aim, which I'm assuming even Yara was like, I see that you post pictures of your children. So you know how to like get people's heads in the frame. Yeah, I'm not sure what was up with that. I think Yara could have a good future as a housewife because they do like launch their own businesses and stuff. Like if there was a Real Housewives of Florida, like I think that she would be. Do you mean Real Houses of Miami that does exist currently?
UNKNOWN:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:oh yeah oh my gosh the light bulb moment for you well you gave it to me but yeah like i could see her on there in like four or five years so we have also darcy and georgia in bulgaria i thought that restaurant that they went to looked beautiful yeah it did it's too bad she ruined the dinner with her nonsense Yeah, I don't even know what she was talking about. Well, she was like, you never told your parents that you're happy in your marriage? And he's like, I've just never said anything. Well, have you told your parents that you're happy in your marriage lately? I haven't explicitly mentioned that. No, but I guess I should. I'm telling your husband. Let this be. I'm on the record. I am happy in my marriage. Thank God. We don't want, you know, your husband to have a meltdown the way Darcy did. Nope. So it'll be interesting to see her meet his family. Yeah, I feel like that's pretty much all we got was like a mini meltdown. And then Adnan is still driving, I see. And her dad can't say his name to save his life. Yeah, what the hell is that? It's just weird to me that if he had been there for several months, you never before today could have coordinated a meeting between your dad and your husband. Well, maybe they were just like waiting. I don't think he's been there for several months. She said two months. It's been two months already. Yeah. Time is like not a real thing on this show. I know. It could be two months or two hours, you know. So Adnan likes the barbecue. He loves it. He loves it. He does not like her cooking, though. I have a question also about wigs. Is Tiger Lily wearing one? I think she just has a lot of extensions. Because it looks like a really bad wig. And I feel like she should focus more money on her hair than on her toilet. Well, she has a glam squad of a makeup artist and a hairstylist. I know. You're making a face. I know. So I don't know. Who can say? That shit is atrocious. The hair and the makeup. They should all be fired instantly. Well, they're also like her only friends. So I don't think they're going to get fired. I have never seen these people. They were in the first episode before Adnan got there. they glammed her up I don't know that they glammed her up but they came to visit her something's gotta give dude I'm sorry that Luke is not working for me especially the wig sorry about it and then we have Brandon and Julia I have a question because you've had some fertility questions that you've investigated at the doctor did they have to squirt all that liquid up your vag they did and let me tell you that shit hurts like a bitch I don't remember you telling me about that. Yeah, they did that when they had to check my fallopian tubes, which I assume is what they did for her too. Yeah, totally. Because they have to make sure nothing's blocking them. And that shit was incredibly painful. Yeah. I'm sorry. I mean, it is what it is. This is women's reproductive care. But they didn't find anything wrong with your region. No, I didn't have any polyps.
UNKNOWN:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:As we've discussed, I very obviously had PCOS, but that wasn't a big concern for them. It happens to a lot of women. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm wondering about the polyp. It's like, okay, well, can that be removed easily? Yes. Yes. Polyps are also really common. I don't know. Maybe she was just a nurse. A lot of times the ultrasound tech can't really tell you a whole lot. And then you talk to the doctor. That's right. That's definitely happened to me. And she did say like, oh, you'll go over this more. Right. And they'll probably say, oh, we can easily get rid of that polyp. The uterus was interesting because it looked like hers kind of like, was fused together in the middle so that might be an issue for sure but yeah i don't know damn i think next week it'll be like this was to build suspense and next week it'll be but it's okay we'll fix it easy fixes and you'll be pregnant before you know it but when she said they had been having unprotected sex for five years that's that's a long time i know well if she's if her uterus is fused together or whatever it was like yeah And then we have Gino and Jasmine. I don't know what to say about them. Except for that I liked it when she was calling the calluses cayuses. Cayuse. That's about all I got. You have cayuse. I loved that I loved that because as someone who always does have a cayuse I just thought that was so funny I know I was like I need a cayuse treatment right around now me too so bad my husband said the other day your pups are hurting and I was like I know oh you know it's bad I need a petty and it makes me like not want to cuddle because I feel like then he's gonna like feel my feet my rough heels my rough manly heels because I feel them up against my own legs and I'm like oh you know it's like nails on a chalkboard and like my husband does not have the level of kajus that i have like his feet are baby soft and i don't know how i get such bad ones and he doesn't how is that possible i don't know he loves to like walk outside and shit we went to the driving range the other day to hit some golf balls he took his flip flops off yeah did anyone look at him or say anything i looked at him and said what are you doing i would be embarrassed That's grounds for a divorce. IMO. Absolutely not. But it was weird. Do you have anything else about 90 Day? I guess I'm excited to watch Jasmine shove Natalie next week for no reason. Oh, yeah. I forgot. That'll be fun. I think it'll be fun even though it's like a little much. Yeah, but it'll be a fun time. At least it's like something to get my eyes on. She called her what? They bring the hookers from Vegas? Yeah, hookers are whore. I thought it was whore. Whores from Vegas? Yeah. Vegas. Oh my god, that Natalie. Josh, why you not take me to Vegas? We'll always have Vegas. Always have Vegas. You know what I just thought of? What? That time that we were talking like this for like half an hour and then you realized you were never recording. That was so devastating. I mean, it wasn't good. The audio wasn't good anyway. It was like God trying to tell us to stop because it wasn't going to end well either way. He said, it's not your week. So moving on to the Valley, I would just like to say that on Watch What Happens Live, Andy agreed with me that we shouldn't just take people off shows for bad behavior. We should leave them on and see it through. He said that? Someone else said it as like their unpopular opinion. Like, that's my opinion. And he said, I agree. Even when they're abusive to their wives. I think it depends on the behavior. Well, that's not what Andy said. Well, that's my opinion. So what did you think of this reunion part two? I thought it was a bit of a snooze, honestly. I don't need Jesse and Michelle's bullshit like ever. Did they even have a segment? Because if they did, I didn't remember it at all. Yeah, I think they talked for a bit. Oh. What about Zach and Janet fighting for Brittany's friendship? That's something else I do not care about even 1%. I guess I just don't understand why Brittany... I guess I'm on Zach's side. I don't know why Brittany can't call Janet out on her bad behavior. Yeah. I agree, and I honestly have some questions like that about Orange County, too. I would like to ask Miss Heather Dubrow some questions, but we'll save that. What about Jax and Brittany? Any opinions on what they revealed to us in this episode? You know, his drug use, like having to get up from the table every ten minutes. Was any of that surprising information? No. But I did... Like when Andy did a segue, are you sad Hooters is going out of business? That was the highlight of the episode. And I think that that was the best ever transition. That's very telling. Your thoughts on the episode. And their reactions were all great. Like Zach's like devastated, actually. That was pretty funny. Oh, they're just restructuring. Brittany's like, I'll buy it. That was pretty funny. I liked that. Andy asked Jax if he was still in love with Brittany. Do you think he is? I absolutely don't. No, I don't know that he ever was. I was just going to say that. I don't think he was ever in love with her. I don't know why he married her. Oh, because his dead dad told him to. I don't think he's capable. Of loving anyone? But himself. What about his son? No. And what's funny is when they were talking about Cruz and they had... captions for zach on the side being like notice how he never says his name he just says my son my son like that's the trait of a narcissist does he love his son i don't i don't know i mean i don't have enough you know i don't know enough research about narcissism but i feel like saying my son is like showing his he's my son like his responsibility and his accountability that's my son i think it's the i think it's different i think it's that's my son interesting about me my kid and that's how zach took it too yeah interesting and we we don't know which one's right because we're not psychologists we certainly are not we did not go to school for that whatsoever but we did take our general ed and there was like one psychology class there was one there was one so i feel like we're pretty qualified i'd say so what did you make of danny or i'm sorry jason attacking danny about the whole sexual assault like allegations that had literally nothing to do with him Janet and Jason's obsession with that makes no fucking sense to me I need them to just stop talking about it I mean Janet I expect it but Jason like why is he doing this well he's gonna double down because it's probably what they talk about at home because they have nothing else going on they can't talk about their kid that kid isn't that cute did they ever show the kid yeah with his helmet remember no yeah he has to wear he was one of those sometimes when the kid gets stuck in the birth canal for a while they're kind of cone-headed so then you they wear like a helmet to shape their noggin I did think that Jasmine made a good point about how she was treated differently. Like her complaint didn't matter as much. You know what I mean? Or that Danny thought he could get away with that because she's a lesbian. No, I thought the point of view was really interesting and valid. And that's something that we never see on these shows. Yeah, yeah. But then again, I was I did remember when Jesse grabbed Kristen's nipple and like tried to give her like a twist. Oh, yeah. And that was like, you know, she's a straight woman and he's a married man. And that was like not even half the half of the problem. Yeah. Can we bring that back up? How about that? He said, sorry. She said, that's OK. And it was done in a different world. That would have been a season long arc of sexual assault. Well, here's my other issue too, is like her point was valid, but he apologized so many times and she already said we were going to move on. So like, then you have to move on. You should have brought this up before. She was like begging them to move on. And now she's like, actually, your apology was shit. Yeah, that's, I don't, I don't love that. I think she's just trying to save her spot. Probably because her, no offense, her girlfriend seems very nice, but just like doesn't give a lot of anything. Nor does she. What's next for the Valley? I don't know where we go from here. Well, isn't it like pretty much, I've seen everywhere that Sheena's like a done deal to come back. But do you think that's enough to save it? I don't think it's definitely enough for another season. At least like to give it a go, to give it a shot. For sure. And then we never say never. Jax could come back. We hope. You hope. I do hope. I'm going to stand 10 toes down on that. Okay, so Miami. So, first of all, the reunion chairs came out. Guess whose first chair? Guess. You have to guess. Gertie. Nope. Was Julia? Nope. Stephanie? Yep. Really? Well, there's another one, but yeah, I'm surprised you guessed Stephanie before the other one, but yeah. Is it Alexia? Yeah. Oh, so their feud will continue. Their feud isn't even a big deal. Well, it seems like it might become bigger if they both get first chairs. I don't know. And again, I'm just really fucking pissed that they keep shooting these reunions. The season just started. They haven't had any time to self-reflect because they're still in the muck of it. True. I cannot take this anymore. Like, Andrew, this has got to stop. We'll write a strongly worded letter to shed media. What else we got? We got a little montage of Adriana's dog humping everyone. I liked that. I thought that scene of her, like, taking her dog specifically to get laid was disturbing. Was it to, like, have babies? I don't think so. Is Adriana really older than Marisol? I think so. That can't be me. She just looks way better. She looks incredible. I know. She really does. I think they're just jealous of her, to be honest. Like, I think all this hatred just comes from their jealousy. And she doesn't look incredible in the way that's like, oh, wow, her facelift looks incredible. She just looks like I never would have guessed. I never would have guessed. I know. What did you think of the preppy party? Um, I liked it. I thought Alexia's preppy outfit was so cute. Um, Kiki won. Her outfits aren't always just the best of the best. Lisa's shoes were a little nuts. Yeah, she looked like a dominatrix. And Larsa being like, and I dress like this. It's like, okay, well, congrats. But otherwise, I loved the debate about the private plane, the private jet. So I'm confused why she couldn't take them all back. that distance, but could take them all a shorter distance. Because it's about how much fuel they need. They needed the weight limit to put more fuel in because they were going farther. Yeah. But it is true that Marisol and Alexia are very tiny. I really don't think that one of them adding one more would cause a crash. Well, I just thought it was silly that if the trip is for Alexia, Stephanie inviting Marisol, what does she think was going to happen? Yeah. Why didn't she invite Alexia, Marisol, and julia or larsa just why yeah yeah that was odd i feel like she's closest to larsa so that makes sense and then why julia i'm not sure but one thing about julia i did i found very interesting the revelation that her daughters and her aren't really in a great place because of the adoption and not just because they adopted kids but apparently they didn't communicate it like they were very surprised when they adopted these children Valid. I'd be like, what the fuck? You're married to a 68-year-old. You're adopting two kids. And you didn't even tell us about that? That's wild. And we have a little bit of experience with this. Love you, mom and dad. But when you chose to move from one state to another, their recent move, we didn't really find out about that decision until it was damn near a done deal. And we were kind of like, What the hell? Like, imagine if they adopted two little boys. I don't think we would speak to them for a very long time if they didn't tell us. If you have to say, hey, we're thinking about adopting these two boys, then, hey, we've been looking more into it. You know, like, you have to keep them abreast. They're your daughters. Totally. I thought that was crazy, and I thought, Julia, you deserve it. Sorry. Yeah, you fucked up. But back to the PJ debate, it kind of reminded me of Big Brother or Survivor when you won a reward challenge, but you can only take three people. Who are you going to take? Who are you going to take? I kind of loved that. I like that, too. That was good. They all handled it so well at the end. They're all like, I understand. I understand. Like, if this was old school Roni, the chaos that would have ensued. Imagine if Ramona did not get chosen. Exactly. Exactly. Or Luanne. She's a countess. A Countess. Or even Salt Lake. Like, if Meredith didn't get chosen. No, no, no. If Lisa Barlow didn't get chosen. Lisa Barlow's obvious. But, like, if either of them. And you know what? That kind of makes them better. Yeah. Like, that's why they're stronger franchises. And I have no problem with Miami right now, but I like it when it's petty and something that small devolves into chaos. Agreed. Let's take a journey to the Orange County. Okay, I already said it, but I love this episode. I don't know why. I feel like I laughed. It just had everything. It had, like, petty fights. It had real-life drama. Yeah, it was a good episode, for sure. We had Gina's housewarming. What did you think of Gina's house? I thought it was great for Gina. What does that mean? Elaborate. It's on par for Gina, you know? Like, that's where she's at. I thought the decor in her children's rooms was sad at best. Yeah, she couldn't have done any better than that. The walls were just so hospital white with, like, nothing on them. Like, doesn't your kid want to hang a poster of, like, LeBron James or something? I don't know. A picture? Fortnite? Anything. Yeah, I thought it was sad. And then... Also at the housewarming, I didn't understand why Heather was defending Tamra for saying that Jen single-wiped, emailed her. She always does that. I don't know why she's defending Tamra so much. You can see her side. I'm like, you can't really see Tamra's side, A and B. Why don't you just say nothing? I wonder if it's because Tamra's kind of out of allies. So Heather has to be the remainder. Seems like... She has, like, allies in Gina and... Kind of. Maybe Emily. Like, people seem to care about her when she was upset about Teddy, except for Gretchen. Yeah, that's true. Did you think that was harsh when Gretchen said she was playing the victim? I couldn't decide. I thought so, yeah. Just because you're talking about somebody with, like, cancer, you kind of gotta not say that shit, you know? Even if you think it. That's, like, something that you don't say, especially on a mic. It's an inside thought. And then I... This, like, made me spiral into thinking, how did Teddy and Tamara become friends in the first place? Because they seem really not well-matched. I'm not sure. Like, don't you think? I'm sure that if you wanted to listen to Two Teas in a Pod, they'd probably talk about it. I can't take that journey. No. But, like, I just feel like if they were on the show together, like, on Beverly Hills, Orange County, they would hate each other. Who can say? What else? Oh. I gotta pause, because in the middle of the show, you didn't see this, because you don't have cable, but there was a commercial for the ages. It was Shannon and one of her daughters, and it was a commercial for Freaky Friday, and they swapped. Oh, that's funny. It was incredible. Like, they were both acting, like, actually acting. Wow. Shannon was acting like a kid, you know? I think that Shannon is a good actress. I believe it. That's amazing. Good for Shannon. I know. I hope she's, like, getting that back, you know, as the kids say. Yeah, totally. And then we have Emily, who, honestly, like, watching her makes parenting look bleak as fuck. I'm sorry. I don't know that I agree with that. Well, obviously, her son has issues. Yeah. He's autistic. He's on the spectrum. And they don't know how bad it is. But they know he doesn't eat. And so that's bad enough. But then she's talking about going on these trips and how when she's a mom, she feels like she's just defined by being a mom. And when she goes on these trips, she feels like she can just be her and focus on that. But then she feels guilty for not being with her sons. I mean, I'm sure that every parent feels that way at times. Oh, yeah. I mean, the word mom guilt. Yeah. I feel like I hear that every other day from somebody somewhere. Yeah. Yeah. They're all just doing their breast. I don't know. It just looked fucking rough. No offense again, respectfully, to all the people that have kids and want to have them. Well, good thing nobody's forcing you to do it. Praise be. This isn't The Handmaid's Tale. Nope. I had one more question. What does Jen do for money? Does she have a job? No, she has a Ryan. What does he do for money? We're honestly not sure. real estate, maybe something. I don't know. And he's rich? Yeah. Do we like Ryan? I don't, particularly. Why? He just seems like slimy to me. Is it because he wants her to get married in that tacky string bikini? Well, last season he rocked like a bejeweled denim jacket the whole time, so that's kind of why. A lot of the time. Because in this season he seems kind of delightful. He's fine. I think I'm just really judging him because he looks slimy to me. And then I have one more question for you. You know Shannon better than I do. I only know her from Love Hotel, but I feel like she's really in a better place. Correct me if I'm wrong. She seems like she's lighter. She seems good right now, yeah, for sure. But we'll see. I mean, the season's early. I know. And even with the drama, like her yelling at Katie, I just still feel like there's not a cloud over her head anymore. No, I do agree with that. I do agree with that. What did you think about their New Orleans trip so far? It made me wonder why we've never gotten ourselves upon that riverboat. I have been on a riverboat that they passed by on the show, that Steamboat Natchez. Okay, well, I've been to New Orleans twice and haven't been on one, so that's rude. So I guess it was my one time without you that we went. And it was a beautiful riverboat. We had, I think, lunch together. And we just, you know, we toured the river just as they did. Sounds amazing. I would have loved it. Okay, well, maybe next time. And then we can go to that haunted restaurant that they went to. I really wanted to do that. I was like, why have I never done that also? That restaurant was really cool. Would you try turtle soup? I was going to ask you the same question. I would not order it. But if somebody else did, I would try a bite. I would definitely order it and give you a bite. You know why I wouldn't order it? Because I am not the kind of person who branches out with my order. Because if I do and I don't like it, that's my whole meal and I'm screwed. I don't want to take any chances. You can order something else. I can't tell the salon to recolor my hair. You think I'm going to order something else? No. I still think you should. If you want me to do it for you, I will. No thanks. So we also got some revelations in this episode. That Terry Dubrow has worn lifts for years. And he's not going to be upset that that was shared? Like, that's crazy. I don't know. He seems pretty fancy free to me. Footloose and fancy free in his lifts. And she made a little joke about how he gets his lifts from China so he won't be getting any for a while. Yeah, that was funny. I really laughed at that. That was really funny. And then we found out that Jen's vagina doesn't work. They sewed it too tight during rejuvenation. Interesting. See, that's why you shouldn't get one. I thought it was sad that Travis's ex is still making life so miserable for Gina. Oh yeah, see, I don't know much about this. This is really like the first few seasons that they've opened up about this, like last season and this season. So Gina, is she married to this man or this is her boyfriend, fiance? No. They've been together for a very long time though. And they both have kids from separate marriages? yes do they have any kids together no and so she's good with her ex yes but he his ex is like certifiable apparently yeah it appears so yeah and she's keeping their child out of school that doesn't seem legal no i'm like she's like oh yeah we haven't seen him in a month and he hasn't been to school like you should call somebody about this that's like call cps yeah easily yeah that was sad again all the emotions we have the sadness of that and of emily's situation and we have the drama you know at the housewarming and then at the end we just end it with a bundle of laughs at that dinner table plus a preview of the horrors to come which i love okay so before the preview though i was thinking like i always want things to be messy and drama you know like i you know if things are going well it's boring that's what i always say say but in this moment i thought like housewives having fun together like there is something to be said for those moments no we love those moments as long as they're in doses yeah it's like to see drama and then like just when you're exhausted from it to see them like laughing like that like heather's getting on the ground no i'm sorry tamra's getting on the ground and emily's like fake doing her from behind like things yeah yeah you know it was great like i loved it and you're right and then just when we you know don't don't think that this is what we're gonna keep doing did you like that editing with that little tease i always do later they do that a lot and i it always gives me chills me too i feel like the most the show that i get the most chills from is salt lake uh and it's not just because the screenshots proof receipts timelines Sprinter vans. Sprinter vans. Liam Neeson, when he was on Watch What Happens Live, he did a bunch of like readings. He read a bunch of lines from Housewives in his like serious voice. And it was really good. One of them was that like screenshots, receipts, proof, timelines. Maybe I should watch it. Anyway, are you going to rot this weekend? You said you're going shopping and you're going to go see Naked Gun, hopefully, which is kind of rotting. Yeah, so other than that, I don't think so because we didn't end up having brunch with the in-laws on Sunday because we went to the beach instead. So I think we'll do brunch again or instead this Sunday. And then when we come back, we have to have a clean day. Oh, fuck. Are you going to rot? I hate a chore day. Yeah, definitely. We don't have any plans. And it's going to be really hot. The whole weekend is your oyster. It is. So I can't wait. Hopefully we'll be able to watch some stuff and... Stay out of the sun. Beat the heat. Finish the bear. If your husband will give us the fucking passcode. Just text at a normal time. I'll try my best, but we just never know what we're doing. Well, we figured out why they're doing that. And it's because Hulu is cracking down on password sharing. God damn it. You know what? Literally everyone in the world should just cancel everything. Cancel all your stream. This is a call to anyone who's listening. Tell your friends to tell their friends and family to tell their friends and family to tell their friends and family to literally on everything. A certain day that I will decide next week, we're all going to cancel all of our streaming services worldwide until they let us share. I'm not going to back this because I don't have cable, so what will I watch? It's just going to be for a short time. It's going to be very effective if the whole world takes part. Well, hopefully our 10 listeners really spread the word there. 10 listeners, if any of you made it to the very end of this episode, which is a feat in itself, that shows me that you have what it takes to make... You have the willpower. This is getting out of hand. How many glasses of wine have you consumed? one okay well so i'm pretty much still myself you know i've always stuck up for injustices oh that's for sure so really like there's nothing different right now your perceived injustices i'm sorry is it not an injustice that i can't watch my brother-in-law's hulu account that is an injustice a bigger injustice i dare you can't think of a one so anyway if the 10 people that listen just tell 10 more people each To tell 10 more people. We'll get there. Remember back in the day, those like chain emails. That's like, but send five books. I don't know why you have to bring us back to that dark place. And you'll get 20 books back. Remember that? Like it was like, or again, like, I don't know why you have to take us back to that dark place. Dark. Like things were so much easier back then. And there was streaming that they could crack down on. And sometimes they became like, send this to seven people or your mom dies. Did you send those? I can't remember if I did or not. Maybe. I'm sure I sent a few in the beginning because I didn't want mom to die. You're welcome, mom. All right. Well, we'll report back. I haven't picked a date yet. Maybe after I finish. It'll be after I finish hunting wives. Great. Just keep us abreast. I will. Okay. Well, then, in that case, thanks for rotting with us. Thanks for rotting. See you next week.
UNKNOWN:See you next week. Bye.
