134. VPR Reboot: Who is freaking out? Is Bravo cleaning house? Real Housewives of New Jersey exclusive; Housewife Blind

Note: we recorded on Tuesday November 26. We woke up to news that some found shocking. That Vanderpump Rules would be continuing on, but without its original cast. There will be a whole new cast of SUR-vers who actually do work at Sur. The fallout continues, but we’ve got tea on how the original cast is actually feeling. With VPR and RHONY before it completely cleaning house with their casts, is this part of a new trend for Bravo? Congratulations to Kristen Doute on her pregnancy! RHOC sent cameras back up to get the ladies’ reactions to some news that Heather and Tamra had been holding on to. Why was this information revealed in this way? We’ve got theories. We’ve got some exclusive tea on RHONJ…and a juicy blind about a housewife trying to get editorial control.

Welcome to cocktails and gossip, the podcast where we drink cocktails, but you better believe we’re going to spill the tea. We chat reality TV celebrity blinds and the hottest tea from Bravo and cocktails.com
and as always, it’s all alleged. And just for fun, we do not verify our blinds. I’m B and I’m Amanda. Let’s get into this week’s tea.
Amanda, cocktailers, We got a lot of scoop going on around. Seriously, hi guys, what in the Bravo has happened in the last What, like two days? First of all, we were on our zoom last night, and we got off our zoom, and I got a little bit of intel that I couldn’t really confirm. I got up super early, reached out to people. A lot of my VPR sources are on the West Coast. Oh, which, by the way, you guys were recording on Tuesday. We usually record on Thursday, but Thanksgiving, just you guys know today is the day that all I feel like everything was just confirmed. So then we woke up. I had some intel. I made a post on the site basically saying it is not canceled, but keep your eyes open, because I’m hearing a reboot. And there we have it. Two hours later, it was announced that Vanderpump Rules will be returning with a new cast. The cast is the SIR staff that we were told was filming a spin off blame money demands on behalf of the original cast, fighting amongst each other scheduling conflicts. But it was decided, I hear they were informed Monday night, Vanderpump Rules will be back, but with new people, they just could not agree. And the network, my guess is, I’m hearing very happy with what’s being filmed currently, and pulled the plug. Okay, lots of thoughts. At first I felt shocked, and then not at all shocked. But let me read a couple of things from a few different places online. Season 12 will feature Lisa Vanderpump and this new group of close knit servers who are as complicatedly involved with one another as their iconic predecessors. The new season begins production next year, which I think is interesting. Maybe they were just filming the pilot, because we know that they had been filming a group and the cast will be announced later. What a thrill it is to build on the legacy of this series by doing it all over again. Executive producer Alex Baskin said in a statement on Tuesday with profound appreciation for the original group and their iconic.
Run, we can’t wait for the audience to see a dynamic new group of coworkers and friends make their way through life together. Then Lisa van repolmp says the last 12 years of filming has been an extraordinary run full of laughter and tears and everything in between. So we know, we knew that there was going to be an extended pause. We had heard a lot about why Us Weekly, says a source close to production revealed that last month, discussions were still ongoing regarding the show’s future, which is what we are hearing. Yep, and the cast had said the same. Tom Sandoval said, I feel like we still have a lot of story to tell, but it’s not up to me. Lala said, let’s just say there’s no more story to tell. There’s only two people to blame for that, and that’s Sandoval and Raquel. Ariana. I will always be a cheerleader for her. And Lala also confirmed a reconciliation between Ariana will never happen. She said, I have no ill feelings about anybody on the show. I think that’s what feels for the first time. I am at peace. I find it very interesting. I think that lilac saw the writing on the wall more so than others. I also think that she wanted a certain salary, and they called her bluff. I think her public appearances, what she said on Jeff Lewis, what she said on her own pod, she was daring them to let them go, and they did. Sadly, I think that those that rely on the show as their main source of income are going to have issues. Yes, Sheena and Lala will likely appear on the valley going forward, but the salary, I would imagine won’t be anywhere near what they got on Vanderpump for longevity. They’re clearly not in a position to argue because they were pushing for bigger salaries and the network picked the new cast I’m hearing, and this is wild. I need your thoughts on this. Amanda, I’m hearing that Brock is livid.
He feels cheated. Now, this source I have is very good, and I posted some verbatim stuff that La La said, I’m not Lala, excuse me, Sheena, but he’s livid. He feels cheated. He wants full time on the Val I just don’t think this is going to be good for Sheena and Brock specifically, yeah. First of all, I think I find that hilarious. I don’t think he feels like he’s gotten enough of his 15 minutes the amount. I can only imagine what that Monday night was like for them, because I think Sheena is has quite the dululu streak to her, and I’m sure she was thinking, but we’re still in, we’re still in, we’re still in. So what this person told me was they said Sheena Brock, Lala and sandraville are the most upset about the news, although they’ve been filming the new cast, Sheena allegedly kept saying they’ll add us in once they once we agree on a number and stupid Ariana scheduled, allegedly verbatim, and apparently last night, he was screaming and yelling about it. It’s odd because Lala publicly tried to make peace with it. It’s almost like she was saving face. But apparently she’s surprised and very upset as well. Yeah, and Lala was the one who’s being as vocal as she could be. To be like guys, we gotta save our jobs all of last season. Yes, which was what a lot of the drama was about. I am very curious to see if Sandoval girlfriend sticks with him so many followers DM me that they’re like countdown till he gets I guess she’ll wait a little while to see what’s spin off. And he’s gonna lie and say he’s got a lot of things cooking. So Sandoval is allegedly not even allegedly, I mean, he’s closing his Schwartz and Sandy’s he’s underwater financially, and really, unless they were to offer him some spin off, which doesn’t seem likely, I Schwartz, I feel like I think a couple things. Number one, Schwartz doesn’t live high on the hog, as they say. He can adjust appearances. He’ll make money. He’s already doing appearances with Jack. He was doing cameos on the valley. He can continue that. I I think James Kennedy is in a very good position with his DJ career. He just announced he’s going on tour with Paulie D from Jersey Shore. I think there’s a world within which James and Schwartz pop in with the new cast. James can be DJ sir, and he’s in between ages. I don’t know how old the new cast is, but if they skew younger, James is significantly younger than most of the rest of them. That’s true. And we did see Schwartz come to Jack says, hair product, whatever the heck party that was. And he is part owner of Tom Tom. I just feel like the other thing my source told me was that everybody was arguing negotiations who wanted to film all that.
Stuff, but James and Schwartz were very flexible, very willing to work with any and all suggestions. Yeah, that goes a long way. They’re not difficult. So it’s like, why fully reboot when you could? I think, I don’t think it’ll be announced immediately, but I think if a month before it airs, or whatever, it’s announced that yes, James will be on and yes, we’ll see Tom Schwartz, I think the fans would love that, and I think that would be great for ratings. And I would imagine, yeah, I agree. I do think James has set himself up pretty well. Katie seems to have done the same. We know. Yeah, same with Ariana. Ariana is fine. Katie and Ariana his restaurants doing very well. Katie’s pod is doing well. And again, Ariana is making a ton of money. And I’m sure Katie is too. I know they made a lot on all their merch and the restaurant and all that. But again, Katie Schwartz, they don’t own two multi million dollar homes. Yeah, Katie’s in a rental. Schwartz is in a rental. They’ve kept themselves. They don’t have as much overhead. Now it is. It’s not always what you make, it’s what you spend, it’s what your bills are. And so I think they’re probably all upset. I don’t think Katie’s like, awesome, because, yeah, yeah, the unknown is scary. She did it for how many years. Yeah, it’s good pay, right? Like I said earlier, I was, at first, I was shocked, because I felt like, whoa, they’re really doing this. But I really, overall, wasn’t that surprised, because I think all the pieces have been falling into place, and we’ve been seeing the writing on the wall, which is, I think, exactly what you said about what Lala has been thinking. We’ve even discussed it here on the podcast. What even is this next season about on Vanderpump Rules? Do we need it? And I think the answer has been no. I know I’ve said it. I do want to call out, though I think it’s an interesting move overall, because I am seeing. I think this is Bravo. And the production companies taking making some power moves. They can use Vanderpump Rules and Roni as an example that no one person is the show or not even the cast, and this can be taken away when cast members get too demanding about money. We’ve been seeing these longer pauses we’ve I think it’s all adding up to this trend. And I just wonder, will the same happen to summer house? Will it happen to southern charm? Will it happen to New Jersey? I mean is it feels like Bravo. Is kind of cleaning house. I think they’re cleaning house, and then they’re also re utilizing talent and paying them less, giving them a long enough break to where when they come back to the table, you have Luanne and Sonia showing up for crappy Lake and probably making nowhere near what they made per season for Roni. You had the ronies Grill trip. We’re gonna see Dorinda with a blue stone Manor. So they’re utilizing talent. It’s smart. Listen, they could not pay all of them what they wanted. Everyone thought they deserved the Ariana check. Now I have people in my DM saying Ariana was part of the problem. Her scheduling her salary demands when you are more in demand, supply and demand, right? I understand Lala and Sheena shouldn’t be like, we’re worth nothing. Pay us whatever, like I get it, but you also have to be realistic. Everybody can’t be Beyonce. And I, I don’t know that Ariana had to be a part of the next season if they did decide to do it, because I don’t think Ariana felt that way. So I think she’s happy it ended, though. I don’t think she wanted it to continue with Yeah, because I don’t want to set a fight to him, if nothing else. That’s true. That’s a good point. I just think that, I think she’s mentally moved on, and we really saw that in the last season. And I just hope she doesn’t get the blame for being the reason this season that this cast has ended, because I don’t think that’s fair either. Yeah, the cast may point fingers, but I don’t think she’ll. Yeah, I don’t think she will. I hope not speaking of Vanderpump, past and present, Kristen Doty is pregnant. Listen, we
I had hinted at it. I’m not gonna announce a pregnancy, as you guys know, unless, until the person announces it, but I did a blind. Lot of you guessed. So I’m sure she had the people exclusive ready to roll out. And what an absolutely savage move the morning before she knew it was being announced today because I had heard it this morning and last night. And she’s still friends with some of the cast, or at a minimum, they have mutuals. They speak to Yeah, and she announced her pregnancy the morning of the announcement that Vanderpump, which she was let go from a few.
Seasons ago. Yeah, I mean car maybe, and she so clearly has wanted us, and she’s been going through many attempts at getting here. So I’m super, super happy for her and for Luke. Yeah, that wacko. So people are asking, Is this why Lala and her sit and her assistant, Jess, parted ways. I think that it could be, I think that as they were negotiating salary, and Lala was realizing she was going to be making less, she certainly was not in a position, and rightfully so, where she would be willing to pay someone more. You know what I’m saying? Yeah, I think it could be a coincidence. I think that Lala could have been, listen when she was at the height of making her money, probably would have been the time Jess should have asked for the raise, because that’s what happened. Okay? She said, I’m on your pot every week. I want more money. Lala said, No, we know too that these reality stars aren’t getting paid until they start filming or going into the next season. So during these times of the long pause, it’s not like they’re still getting just some kind of Vanderpump Rules paycheck. So Right? I definitely think it’s money because there there was no filming and no promise of at that point, and like I said last night on the Zoom fairly certain that lala’s pod is not doing an ad what it did at the height of scandoval, and probably hasn’t been for months, which could mean that her podcast deal was renegotiated at a lower rate, because I’m sure she gets upfront money. And I just have to tell you guys, I’m hearing from a reliable source that the new cast is awesome. It is why they greenlit them. If they were crappy, they would have kept the OGs. I am interested to see if a younger audience tunes in. We don’t know that these people are so young, but we’re assuming they’re more like mid 20s, early 30s. Yeah, I’ll be watching. I’ll definitely be watching. And if it’s not good, we’ll tune out. And I think it’s to their benefit to sprinkle in the OGs. And I think that we will see that. I think you’re right. I don’t get the valley’s success. Yeah, you listen, was it smart of Bravo to humble people for a while like Jax and Kristen, dowdy and Brittany, and then bring them back. They didn’t have to pay them as much. They were hungry, they were thirsty. They brought along their thirsty friends, and it was a fantastic spin off. Yes, so sprinkle it up. Let’s see James. I think I, at a minimum, I want to see James. I don’t think it’s out of the answer, for sure, no question. And why can’t James go for a sandwich before at Katie and Ariana spot, and can’t we see them a little bit like there are things we can do here, yeah, or Katie will throw a party at sir, I have no doubt it just it won’t be, we won’t be getting the see the insider kind of view of them sitting in their apartments. That is not going to be happening, at least on Vanderpump Rules, and it’ll be more of a curated appearance if it does happen, which I think it will,
on Discord with our members. There has been a big conversation today, will people watch it the new version, or will people not? And I would say there were pretty good numbers either way. Some people just said, I don’t know that I care to watch the younger people, because that person seemed to
believe like they’ve grown up too. So fewer. But then another person said, which I thought was such a good point, the first season of any Bravo show is usually the best, because that’s before people gain their filters, before they start getting all their stylists and start getting diva attitudes, which I thought was a good point, too, 100% and maybe Bravo’s going for a younger audience, wouldn’t be a bad thing. They have southern hospitality now they’re gonna have this. I think I have said this for a while. I think Miami would be a great city to do a Vanderpump style. Let’s see. I think it’ll do well. I agree again. So many, oh, wait, somebody just messaged me who lives near Tom and Tom’s, Schwartz and Sandy’s, and they said, Our neighborhood is very happy that Schwartz and Sandy’s is closing, no more blocking streets from Resident parking during filming, etc. Hopefully a new restaurant will not have obnoxious, rude staff and averaged overpriced food. We missed the previous restaurant in that location. So another ending this week. It’s there must be something going on, astrologically for all of this house cleaning and all of these changes. And then Sandoval, girlfriend, Victoria, I think is her name, posted when? So both Tom’s post.
Posted about shorts and standings closing. Tom Schwartz got a lot of supportive comments, that kind of stuff. Tom Sandoval did not but Victoria posted on Sandoval post blaming Greg, the other partner, for the demise of the restaurant, but not Sandoval. No, it’s never Sandoval. I don’t know how he brainwashes these people, these women and even his friends, like I actually find myself feeling sorry for Schwartz, but Katie told him for years and years now, if any of you guys are listening and you’re gonna be on any of these shows, take half of what you’re earning and put it in the s and p final. Don’t touch it, because reality life another lesson right here that reality life can be cut short at any point for any reason, and invest in yourself when you’re at the height. Take a page from Craig’s book, a page from Paige’s book. Like, right? We’re saying work harder. Yeah, like we’re saying, is this gonna happen to southern charm and summer house? Maybe? But guess what? A lot of the people on those shows will be okay because they have other businesses and not just a podcast. Craig is an example. Austin is an example. Are invested in restaurants. Austin has his beer. Craig has his obviously sewing down south, which has, which has two flagship stores. Paige has her podcast, which is also her tour and her book and her merch. Amanda has partnerships. Obviously. Sheila has mailbox money. Shep has mailbox money. Shep, Shep has, I have to tell you something, so I’m watching last night the Watch What Happens Live, because Andy teased it. He said that Kyle put his foot in his mouth again. Yeah. So at Fan Fest in Miami, they recorded Watch What Happens Live. And on this particular one, it was Kyle and Amanda Sierra and Jesse Shep, Captain, Sandy, Captain, whatever that other bull guy is Carrie and Kate Cheston. Kate chesting, yeah, and they asked. So first of all, I started this to say that Shep look really good. The ozempic is doing him well, yeah, he got legendary. He looks healthy. Is he not drinking? Of course, he is. As a matter of fact, I forget I gotta pull up the blind, but he was just at a sorority house partying till the wee hours of the morning. Oh, gross, yeah, but I think that he probably is slowed down for him, meaning, maybe not hard liquor, maybe not skiing kind of thing, but he looked good, yeah. So of course, Kyle, it wasn’t terrible. When he said there they did give him a shady I guess it wasn’t that shady of a question. It was actually a nice question. It was say something nice about the way that Craig runs his businesses, essentially, yeah, something that you think, whatever. And he goes, I admire the fact that he doesn’t actually run his business. Here’s the thing, and I’m gonna take a shot here at him. What you’re telling me is you’re jealous of the fact that Craig hired a good team. Because as a business person, man or woman, I don’t want to say business man, you’re only as strong as your team. And Craig travels a lot. He has two locations, so he has to have staff in both locations. He also now is doing that spritz beverage, which he’s traveling a lot for. He obviously lived sometimes in Charleston, sometimes in New York with Paige, and he films his show. So he needs somebody running the operation in Nashville. He has a restaurant that he’s invested in New York. He’s got a lot of stuff going on. So he partnered with smart people, as opposed to Kyle, who I know. He has people who work for him, like those social media girls, but as things stand, he has Carl who quit on him, and now is back, and his wife who also seemingly quit on him, so hire better people. I just think that Kyle thought he was saying something that would like shade. Craig. Oh, Craig does not come from money. Yeah. Craig comes from a normal middle class upbringing. As far as I can tell. He went to law school. He is an attorney. He then took an idea, built upon it for years, was successful in it. Obviously, he has a partner, because he’s not independently wealthy, so he needed investors. Do you know what I’m saying? So he is a smart person who, over the course of 12 years, has built this empire, and that’s how people grow their businesses. To be amazing is by hiring a great team so and the man is at appearances weekly. He is on a plane a couple times a week, like he’s working. So I don’t know what Kyle’s getting at, because Kyle is also always doing his appearances. He’s DJing and on the watch. What Happens Live? Ciara was like, what? One of the questions she got was, what’s a behavior that you wouldn’t tolerate if you were Amanda? And she was like, I wouldn’t tolerate any of Kyle’s behaviors. Ooh, yeah, Orange County, in order, I wanted to wrap the bow on that.
Season today is done. Very curious to hear what you thought of that last reunion and just overall. So the last reunion, it seemed to me that Andy was really coaching Tamara, like keeping her in line so that Shannon would cave and say at the end that she was willing to move forward, he facilitated that whole conversation. It seemingly worked as predicted. Tamara did not help Alexis at all. As a matter of fact, she pointed out that Shannon did not slander Jim bolino. She also was giving her sympathetic looks as Alexis was saying all of her ridiculous things, like calling Shannon a friend with benefits, and yeah, I think Tamara has been secretly freaking out about her place on the show because of how bad audience reactions were to how she acted. I think she’s tap dancing. I think she and Andy have a good have a friendship. I think Andy really is cheering her on and wants to see her. Her do okay? My thing is at the end, so that the reunion concluded, and we all get excited, and we see them pick up cameras to go to Emily’s house, right? We see Shannon surrounded by love. I do. We talked about it on the Zoom last night. I do absolutely think it was in an effort for production in the network to show the ladies coming together clean slate, we can all record a new season together. And I think Heather and Tamara really wanted it because they thought they were doing something. I think it made them look bad for knowing this information and not privately telling Shannon before, because Alexis was posting on social media, I’m gonna post stuff. Everyone’s gonna know the truth. So Shannon doesn’t remember that night, and you have Heather and Tamara knowing that John is accusing her of punching which, by the way, Shannon didn’t deny. She said, I don’t remember. It was a really bad night. Basically said, It’s possible. Hey, it’s Ryan Seacrest for Albertsons, Vons and pavilions.

Yeah. And plausible deniability from her, of all. A little off topic, but Alexis can go Bye, good. So you never nobody in the cast, not even Jen or Katie really seemed to be advocating for her. But I am, like, curious about two things about this whole scene anomalies. Because usually when after the union, if they pick the cameras back up, there’s something big, someone’s engaged, something really bad happened. There’s more information, whatever. So it was not really, in my mind, that big of a deal. It’s.
Essentially, Heather says, yeah, that night after the finale party, John told us at dinner that Shannon hit him. Here is what I’m curious about. One Why did the information not come out of the Union? I have a theory that it’s because they were saving it for the Union, but then, because there was so much time, and we are watching because they didn’t record the reunion until, I want to say beginning of November, because that was when, and the reason this is so incredible, love hotel, she was filming love hotel, and Shannon Tamra got the
facelift, and she’s I know I have all of October to heal, because we’re not doing the reunion until November. So I think they were holding on to it for the reunion, but I think they realized that the audience was on Shannon’s side. So then they decided to, I think they did tell her off camera, and told Shannon, how do you want this information to be shared? Do you want to do this after the reunion? Because she did not. Shannon did not even look surprised. No, when they brought it up at all, and I don’t think the reunion would have been in the appropriate time to tell Shannon whether or not Alexis was on stage or not. I did love how Shannon was like, Okay, bye, you’re a friend. Yeah, exactly. But I could have seen Tamara or Heather bringing it up at the reunion if they decided to go and just totally pile on. But I think they made a smart decision not to Yeah, I think they are probably seeing everything going on with jersey and the New York reboot and Vanderpump Rules, and they’re probably like exactly to your point, we better show that we can film together and that we love each other. Nothing was really that shocking. So my other question is, when there wasn’t anything that crazy or that shocking? There was not much of a there. Unless I am wondering, were they really, truly worried that John and Alexis were about to come out with those videos and Shannon wanted to get ahead of it, I think it’s possible, because I think it coincides with Alexis posting that she’s gonna drop the receipts. Yeah, and nobody really knowing what that meant, because after the reunion, I’m fairly certain that Alexis wasn’t thrilled with Tamara not doing anything to support her. Yeah, it was in both of their best interests to make nice with Shannon. I certainly agree with that. I don’t think they truly care about Shannon. I think the makeup of Tamara and Shannon is weak at best. And when cameras pick up, I think that we’ll see Shannon and Tamara once again fighting. I think if Gretchen is on, which I feel confident she would be. I think all of their issues resurfaced. Shannon is not letting go of this in the moment at the reunion. I think that Shannon felt relieved to be getting through the reunion, that Tamara didn’t pile on, that Heather didn’t pile on, that Emily was supporting her, that Gina was supporting her, that Jen and Katie were supporting her. So in that moment, she was happy with how things were going. I don’t think we can take that and say her and Tamara are going to lunch anytime soon, because they’re not. I actually, I have a little different of an opinion. I actually believe the makeup with Shannon and Tamara, but with a big caveat, I think in both their minds, it’s more of a Okay, we’re gonna go back to status quo, which was always more of an ally ship, and they’re like, Okay, we’re cool with this Cease fire. I don’t know that they really ever were truly abs like truly best friends, because I agree with that. I agree with that, and I think it’s smart, because you have Lala going on, Jeff Lewis and saying, I will never make up with Ariana, and now the show’s canceled, because guess what? Once you say that there’s nowhere to go, exactly the same way you complained about Ariana not wanting to film with Sandoval, is you saying you’ll never make up you can’t speak in absolutes, which is why Shannon and Tamara have lasted so long, because they’re willing to do what they need to do to keep the train moving yep, I think it’s a wary Alliance. Yeah, they’re like, we’ll just keep this up, and this way we can both stay on the show and we do have fun together. I can just Yes, see that’s how they’re probably justifying this in their heads. So as far as the cast moving forward, we haven’t heard anything yet about when they’ll be filming next? Have we? I actually heard, and it’s not 100% confirmed, but I heard cameras would be up soon, maybe as soon as January, which leads me to believe that most everybody is staying with maybe a demotion. I feel like maybe Emily, or I would say Emily, maybe friend of.
So Tamara’s back, Shannon’s back, Heather’s back. I feel like jet I feel like Jen is back, yeah. Feel like Katie’s back, even though they all hated her and they tried to take her down. Now, if you add Gretchen, I think if Joe the og de la Rosa comes back, it’ll be more a cameo thing. I just think they have a stacked and they worked hard towards this stat cast like we had a couple of flop seasons. We had the Elizabeth Vargas era. We had the Noella and Noella hole, whatever her name was, era. So a well deserved strong cast is emerging. So now they can be picky. I think cameras go back up and think we get another good season. I think we get a Tamara takedown. I think Tamara’s gonna get and who knows? Who knows? Somehow Tamra might look the victim, and we all may feel sorry for her. It seems wild to say that, but I never thought that on the heels of a DUI, Shannon would have her best season to date. I think Tamara is at her best when she shows her vulnerability for real, when she actually does, though, not when she pretends to be vulnerable. And if she actually truly, genuinely comes back to us and says, I’ve been in therapy. I have really been working on this, and I’m I have realized how I’ve affected all of my relationships and the I’ve said so many cutting, inviting things, but this is a genuine thing. I I think Tamara can win her way back in because she is ultimately funny. She’s fun to watch. She has like she’ll call it like it is. She’s good at stirring. She’s not afraid to stir the pot, but she’s good at it too, which is how I feel about Emily, too. I don’t know that I feel like people have to be having monumental things going on in their lives all the time. I don’t know that you have to be a Jen padrante Who is right, if you have enough of those people. If you have Jay and you have Shannon, who had a lot going on, yeah, the Emily, for example. Emily, I think, is so good too, at stirring the pot, calling things the way they are. She doesn’t other than Alexis. She doesn’t outwardly just show hate for anybody on the cast, as she could film with anyone, which is very useful when people are feuding. I love how much she hated Alexis, because I feel like she was speaking for all of us. Watch how you do.
I do too. And I’m like, thank God, because I know that she and Tamara have a close friendship. I know that she works with Tamara on the podcast, and I could have seen her go the way of Tamara? Be like, No, I didn’t really know her before, but no, she’s I have your number. I think you’re bullshit. And I loved that about her. Yes, I really, honestly loved the season of OC and I didn’t expect to. So bravo to the it was a great season, and I’m looking forward to another great season. And I think if what we’re hearing is true that cameras go up as soon as January, they’re smart, because let’s keep the momentum. Yeah, agreed. Okay, so we got some tea sent into the website. Thank you guys for sudden hitting that. Send us tea button, because we get some great stuff there. The subject line is, editor headache, a housewife and her husband are allegedly causing issues, using legal threats from their high powered attorney to demand last minute edits to episodes. After receiving screeners, they have even caused an entire storyline to be cut, which has created a huge headache for production. The channel and the fans really like her, but they are questioning if that’s worth it to keep her around. Allegedly, who do we think this is? It has to be one of the shows currently airing, and there are no house husbands on Beverly Hills. Potomac doesn’t come to mind. The person that came to mind for me was Bronwyn. We know that Todd is an exact high powered role, C suite, no nonsense. We’ve seen him aggressive. So I can’t really think of anybody else.
We also know we were told that the cast of Salt Lake City has been reprimanded and banned from live tweeting. Couple of the OGS blamed that on Bronwyn the audience, really, I would think it was Lisa and Angie who are having full on war well blood social media apparently went after a content creator, Bravo and blaze. I This is what I was told. It fits because the audience is loving her, and we do want her back. I’m hoping this doesn’t I also feel like Todd’s reaction to her being a housewife and her saying the most important thing to her is his acceptance, but yet she’s actually.
Like she just called out Lisa today because Lisa said that she’s been trying to get on the show. And Bronwyn wrote, oh, look at Lisa with her story time. Because back, I want to say season two, when Lisa did the foster care charity dinner Bronwyn attended, and Bronwyn I was not trying to be on the show. I attended as your friend, supporting you and your family. It was not a failure to launch,
but her responding and the fact that she has been in the mix leads me to believe that she wants this enough to listen. She was able to convince Todd to have her join to begin with. So how is he now gonna, like take it away from her? Yeah, I think that makes sense. I do think so. I don’t know. A few weeks ago, I used the words justice for Todd
because I thought it was great that he was standing up for his wife, that he was like, I don’t want this kind of BS on our trip. And then we see him speak in a very condescending Matt manner next episode or two, and tell him that she was a tell her that she was a disgrace. So I take those words back. Yeah, I do not find that up. I don’t think, I don’t think that’s appropriate whatsoever. I 100%
could see him trying to change things after they especially that scene where he just speaks so badly and so condescendingly to his wife. I think there’s probably more to the story about Gwen Bronwyn, daughter that they may be trying to protect or change.

I think that we may see a conversation. We won’t see it. I think that there may be a conversation between Todd and Bronwyn, where he now that he’s in the arena, he’s okay. Here’s what we’re not going to talk about. I just hope that it isn’t so much that we get like, a very muted version of her. Do you know what I’m saying? Just like when she’s sitting at the table and she says, Oh, I yelled and oh, I ruined the trip. And seeing her diminish herself like that really hurt my heart. And I don’t want to see a diminished Bronwyn on screen, off screen anywhere, because I think she is a bright light.
Right, and have really enjoyed her. And I honestly couldn’t I disagree. I don’t like I said. I never blamed Todd for saying I don’t want this drama on our 10 year anniversary trip. But I don’t feel like Bronwyn. I think Bronwyn stood up for herself and but I think she did so appropriately, and not in an inappropriate way, not in a way that ruins the trip. Yes, 100% and I think that, again, we said it last night on the Zoom, I think that they’re in a situation where their marriage is such that he does travel a lot, and so when they’re together, it’s probably the two of them with her daughter. Maybe couples go out, but like she he travels so much that her female relationships he is not really privy to. Does that make sense? Yeah, absolutely. I mean, you don’t even have to travel, yeah, because the husband is a consultant or whatever, and travels a ton, and the white it’s usually that way. Sometimes it’s the other way. But I, from my own experience, I know the swear and the wife has, she has her own life, and she’s almost, almost annoyed sometimes when the husband is around too much, because she’s I have this whole other life that I have built, and I don’t want to feel obligated to stay home on Tuesday night just because my husband happens to be home this week Exactly. So I don’t feeling that’s our dynamic as well, and I think that this is eye opening for him, but listen, he’s gonna have to compromise, because she seems to like this life. It’s not like she filmed this season and has been quiet. She’s been at every event. He’s been at some stuff with her too. So I don’t think we’ll lose her. I just worry that we’re gonna get a muted version, which we don’t want Yeah, agreed. Okay, let’s talk jersey. We got some info coming in about jersey. This person said, Please don’t share my name. Share my name. Please post this as anonymous. So it says a friend of a friend was greenlit for the reboot by the network. Not sure if she’s a main character or a friend, but she’ll be on. They are recasting everyone, it says. And then, so that was so that, yeah, that was a from a follower in my DM who is somebody I speak with, and my sources keep saying, nothing has been decided. So was this person truly green lit? I do know, and we’ve said it that they’ve been talking to all different women. I’m not sure. I’m not sure. I believe anything I hear about New Jersey. We do see Teresa’s doing a lot of bar appearances. She’s selling bags and things on tick tock. As is Jen Aiden selling jewelry on tick tock. We also got into Janet. Anne’s been selling jewelry on Tiktok all along, though, yeah, on her for her brother. Teresa was on watch. What Happens Live she was, she was promoting House of Villains, which I’m behind on it, but she’s really great on I think it’s good to see her away from the cast. I posted that and someone sent an email. Bravo’s two options are, if they keep some cast members, there will be newbies that live in North Jersey. That’s why you hear Jackie saying they posted in her town’s mom group, and Theresa and Rachel’s friends are being reached out to. However, the other option is a cast in a totally different area of New Jersey, and a full reboot. In the past, they’ve tried to cast in Monmouth County, the twins Amber Kayla last season. It never works out because it’s so far from the current cast. That area of Jersey has a lot of nice towns and money, especially after COVID. The area is growing rapidly as of now. They are picking a cast of women in that area and filming them a little after the new year, just to see how it feels more of a pilot not to be aired. Also, a lot of New Yorkers migrate to this area. There’s a bunch of Italian Americans. So bravo. Intends to keep that Italian flair of New Jersey, at least with some of the cast. Stay tuned. So this kind of lines up with what my followers said. So I do think that they are scouting a group of women from a different part of New Jersey, and they’re getting them together, and they’re seeing how it goes. At the same time, we keep seeing Rachel post with the same food, with the same group of girls, her friends, and it’s like obvious posts, and it’s people who were at her events and filming who clearly want in on the show. So I guess jersey is really deciding which way do they go? Because I think the hardest thing to decide is, do they let go of Teresa? I, for one, feel like Jersey needs Teresa, but I just think with Louie and all the stuff around that would be a hindrance, I like to, I don’t know, you guys know, I’ve never been a big Teresa fan. I am very curious, and actually would be very interested to see a jersey without her, because I just don’t feel the same hold like I don’t feel like Teresa.
Has the same hold on me and a lot of people, and we’ve talked a lot of times about how her fans are much louder than their numbers. Yes, and I for one, would maybe like to see something different. I think there are so many great women who were on the most recent season that I don’t want to say goodbye to ahead of Teresa. So she’s lower on my list of people who I would want to keep but you could be right. Maybe it does have to have her to survive. I just don’t think, and just based on stuff the cast has said, I don’t think they’ll go with the Gorgas and not Teresa. I just don’t see that. I think if they don’t go with Teresa, they’re gonna move on from them, from Judy J and Gorga at the same time? Yeah. I Where does that? Marge, yeah, Jen Fessler and Marge is a facilitator. Marge can get a group together. Marge can make stuff interesting. You do need somebody who understands reality TV? Like, yeah, I agree. I but I think this is another good time just to look back at what’s happened in New York and now Vanderpump Rules, and I would not be shocked if they do something very similar with jersey, or maybe they do two shows like they were talking about doing with New York, the reboot and the legacy. That would be something I think that would be pretty interesting as well. I just heard today that Tracy Tudor confirmed on Jeff Lewis that she is doing a real estate show in Texas. The person said, I think Dallas or Austin. And the person isn’t sure, Bravo loves her, but her contract is up with them, so maybe it will be Bravo, or they said it could be Netflix. Shaz of Sunset are hoping that they’re going to be green lit, and he’s mentioning it. Reza on Jeff Lewis. I love how Jeff Lewis has become the epicenter. I know Jeff Lewis is getting a show, so it almost seems like Bravo is, I don’t want to say moving away from housewives, but they’re trying other things, but to give up jersey, I just feel like they’re going to do something with jersey. I don’t think that they’re going to end it like they did Dallas or Dubai. Yeah, traders is supposed to be coming out in January. I think January 9 is the actual day we have Dorinda Sierra from summer house, Dolores, ion, Robin and Sandoval, okay, so those are just the Bravo labs, right? Plus we have Britney Spears’s ex husband, Sam, who on like his picture says Britney’s ex, yeah. Then we have Zach Efron’s brother, who, on his picture, says Zach hefron’s brother. That’s so funny. Chris shell, who, everybody knows, I’m not a fan of her. I’m interested to see, does she clash or click with the Bravo people? Because we know that they’ll be like a I don’t think Sandoval will be part of that. He’ll have to find other friends. But I think the women, Dorin to Sierra, Dolores, ion and Robin. I think there’ll be a click, at least at the beginning. Do you think crucial would make a good trader? Yes, I do too, and there’s always pretty they’ve all won. No, because too obvious. I feel like Robin, they could make Robin one, because she could go either way. I don’t think Dorinda would make a good trader. She’d tell somebody, I don’t know, how do we just gonna do because remember when our girl, trishelle was on our pod, she said that they really cut you off at two glasses of wine. So you’re gonna see a different Dorinda, because she’s gonna be focused. I just still don’t trust her not to spill the beans if she’s a trader, yeah, I agree.

you Dolores or Sierra, could be traitors. I feel like ion couldn’t. She’s too obvious, like Dorinda Dolores would be too mean to be a traitor, but people may suspect her because she has that personality where she’s Switzerland and everything natural. Yeah. I feel like Sierra people will not know as well, and her personality is subdued, so I do think she’s a one that can go either way, so maybe they’d make her a traitor.
Oh, I cannot wait. I’m so excited.
My daughter keeps asking me when it’ll me too, and we put on the UK one, but she didn’t like it was because what’s his face wasn’t on it. Why can’t I think of the guy’s name? You know who I’m talking about? Alan Cummings coming. It’s a woman. Our daughters are taking an interest in the reality business. Yes, they’re gonna have to take over the pod one day. So you gotta teach them young Meantime, our boy, CT, our castle, daddy. So we told you guys, and you guys know we I posted about it. He was dating this girl who was an only fans model. She was married to some wrestler, Jake, something Draper or something whatever. So she’s an only fans model who her whole thing on Instagram is posting in like, lingerie and saying things like, I’m home, fuck me. Like, just very like, sexually charged. This weekend, he posted, like, a three minute reel of messages. She’s been sending photos, all sorts of stuff where, essentially, it seems that he took it down fairly quickly. But of course, people got screenshots, right? We reposted it seems like he was under the impression that they were in a monogamous relationship, and she was not under the same impression. And he used the word cheating, I think, yeah. But then the next day, he like Apollo, he like posted something and apologized to her. Now I don’t know if he was trying to get back together. I don’t know if he was apologizing because he like, put it out there and sex James her, and even legally, maybe she could be like, you can’t post my private stuff. So we know that he had DM from the challenge, for those of you that don’t know, he had a beautiful love story with a woman from they were young when they met, and she very tragically died of ovarian cancer. He went on to marry a woman and have a child with her, and she cheated on him, and now his first public serious he was all googly eyed over this woman, Catalina, relationship like now she did the same thing to him, and so where’s Phaedra?
Oh, I have an exclusive, really not supposed to share, but I’m going to, because I don’t care. Kenya is going to be at the reunion, Atlanta reunion. That’s what I heard. Allegedly, she’s going to have confessionals for the part of the season she was in. I don’t know the specifics on what all transpired to allow this to be. I have to imagine that Britney, the new girl whose pictures she showed, and all of that, decided to allow it. And thank you, Brittany, we need Kenya. Yeah, I think that’s great, because it sounds like the confession like all of us, because we remember, if you guys remember when all this went down, they stopped filming with Kenya, and then that’s when they brought Phaedra. Shortly after, bought Phaedra back in, brought Cynthia back in, yeah, and had been talking about either scrapping the whole first part of when Kenya had been filming or making the season into two, two pieces, right? So part one, part two, which it sounds like they’re going with the latter, and that makes so much more sense. I think, if I had to guess, it sounds like maybe even Bravo. Was like, Wait a second, you’re right. Other people have done much worse, but we did have to stop puck. We would like you to come to the reunion. We’d like you to finish doing your confessionals, etc. So because Kenya has come right out and said, I definitely do.
Not she took accountability and said, I shouldn’t have done it. Yeah, she took accountability a couple months after everything transpired, which pretty much indicates that she was told to take accountability if she wants to come to the reunion and go forward on the show, etc, etc. Kim Zolciak selling her Christmas trees. Amanda, I need to see this. I actually have not been on so I know I told you about it yesterday. I know I need to see it. Did you say $5,000 was like one of these fancy, decorated ones? But still, yes, very overpriced. I just wonder, can they put her back on the show like she needs a check? I just No wonder if you’re spending that much money on Christmas trees, no wonder you are in debt. That is an insane amount of money to spend on a Christmas tree. I remember a few Christmases ago, it’s got to be four or five. She posted her kids, and now, remember, she got a lot of kids, her kids Christmas presents. And like everybody on the internet, you remember it was like Louis Vuitton for Tom bags for her, like at the time six year old or five year old, obviously her older daughters like hundreds of presents. And it was so gluttonous, yeah, and extreme and unnecessary. And you’re just have to say to yourself, she did not put half of what she earned into the s, p5 100. She did not.
She did not take your advice. Amanda,
she didn’t put any of it away. No, she did not. Guys, we hope you have the happiest Thanksgiving holidays are wonderful. They can be stressful. Take care of yourself. We hope you’re cooking or eating leftovers as you listen to this and enjoy your time. And even if you just get some extra time off work, enjoy that. Yeah, you get a little time to binge a show you haven’t gotten to watch yet, like I have House of Villains. Yes, I’m
to binge. I look forward to it. I’m on that I’m on that train. Love you guys. Bye.
