B is on vacation, so this week we have Tracy on the podcast joining Amanda. Charleston’s lost boys continue to be messy. A slightly different angle on why we don’t want to see Salley’s “pick me” energy. Why is Whitner still single? Real Housewives of Potomac’s reunion Part 1. Wendy is whispering – is this performance anxiety and on behalf of her performance? And she didn’t hear the conversation at reunion that all the other ladies heard?
[2:05] 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.
[2:24] I’m Bea and I’m Amanda. Let’s get into this week’s tea. Hi, cocktailers. You’re hearing Amanda because Bea is in Ireland on vacation, so we are joined by a very special guest, someone who makes me laugh every single day. It’s Tracy. Hi Tracy,
[2:47] Hi Amanda, hi cocktails,
Southern Charm: Charleston’s Lost Boys and Salley’s Pick Me Energy
[2:52] and we miss you. B I miss you, but we’re gonna have a lot of fun. Okay, so I think we need to start in Charleston. I seriously wonder how it is these men, quite a few, at least, Shep is in his mid 40s, continue to be this messy. So Austin and Craig are still avoiding each other after that disaster of a birthday dinner for Austin, Shep creates mess by telling Sally that Craig said that he was worried Charlie would fall in love with him. Of course, Sally goes running to tell Charlie. Charlie tells Craig. Craig confronts Shep about it, and they pretty much brush it off. So we found out during last week’s episode that Austin had the week before his episode, that Austin had broken up with his girlfriend, Audrey, but he only first tells Madison and then Vanita and rod in the car on the way to whitner’s family estate, itchy grass, which I think all of us are like, we will move into itchy grass at any if anybody needs us. We’re here. He says it. He doesn’t want to talk about it this weekend, because he doesn’t want to become doesn’t want to become the topic of conversation for the weekend, understandable, but especially that he doesn’t want Craig or Shep to know, because they’ll throw it in his face, which he’s completely right about, they will. But honestly, it feels like Madison made the biggest misstep of telling Sally. This feels like I am listening to middle school drama. Yeah, from my daughter, sexually Hot People. And yeah, exactly. So Madison had made the biggest misstep, though, because when they are hanging out by the pool, Sally asked her and Audrey’s, are they still together? And Madison says no, so then it is Game On for Sally. Austin says he has to get up at dinner to go to the restroom. And Sally says, Do you need help? Which Austin then says, down dogs, which I did not care for. But that did not stop Sally. So she says out loud, at this beautiful dinner party, I want Austin’s t i, C, K, so Rick. Yeah. Tracy, Sarah had to ask you, do you think this is all an act by Sally, or do you think that she’s really this forward, extreme, flirty, this level of thirst
[5:14] is hard to fake. The shame in her game is clearly non existent. And I personally find it fascinating seeing a girl as hot as Sally act so Desperado, yeah, it’s her inside thoughts are spewing out of her mouth. It’s really hard to watch this girl is buying chickens for the dick and acting ick for that dick.
[5:34] She really, she really is like, yeah, I don’t think Sally’s that much of a joke star. So I don’t get the feeling that when she’s she wants some help, that it’s that big of a that she’s just, there’s some wheel in tent in there. I could, like, as much as I want her to be joking around. It definitely seems like she’s serious, which gives me now the ick based on, you know, the DMS that we get, the comments on the site and on Discord, I think everybody is feeling the ick from Sally’s pick me girl energy. So you’re just saying. It gets really fascinating to see somebody as hot as her. I don’t think it’s a case of all of us fans being catty. I think it’s actually because, at least for me, I don’t want to speak for everybody else, but I like to see women give off strong, independent energy, like Madison, like Paige, just Sorbo, like Molly, who’s while she’s kooky, she still really marches the beat of her own drum, which we respect. And I think with Sally, we’re looking at her, and we’re like, girl, you have an amazing career where you make, I think she said 400,000 a year. You have a house. You are gorgeous, you have a lot of fun in your personality. Let’s see, we don’t want the pick me. We want out of you. We want the strong, independent energy. Yeah, Sally is a perfect example of a girl that’s very pretty, but seems to be more focused on attention from a man, rather than building friend relationships with women. Could she be insecure? Does she think like a man defines her happiness? I mean, you look at Molly, who is like, unapologetically herself, which I love. I mean, she has insecurities, like we all do, but she knows who she is, and she leans into it. She’s like, Yeah, I got my vagina fix, so who cares? And I’m like, Yes, Molly, yeah. She’s also a former model who can sing and play instruments we’re getting to know her, not like seeing her trying to get a guy to like her who is Sally tell me more about you, not who you want to screw. I bet if she opened up and shared more about her? Yeah, we I like I would love her, yeah. What are your vulnerabilities? What keeps you up at night? What scares you in life, things like that. I completely, completely agree. I do love Molly, and we do know that she has a relationship that right now is off camera, but I’m hoping we get to see see more of that side of Molly as well, because it feels we get to see all of the stuff from Sally with her dating but not a lot of the other the personal life, the things that really make her tick. And then with Molly, we get to see more of her actual personality, but not as much of the dating life. And I’d like to see it balance out a little bit. Another thing that a lot of the cocktails, there was a whole thread going on on our Discord about Sally coming out, saying she’s a girl’s girl, and 100% of the cocktails all think said people who go around saying that I’m a girl’s girl, pretty much, or never, girls, girls. What do you think about that?
[8:41] Yeah, and you have to say who you things like that. It because you’re trying to convince other people,
[8:46] right, right? It’s just like when somebody is trust me, you know, I’m very trustworthy, or whatever it is. So yeah, I can I agree. And that’s why we were joking last week, because, like, I am a girls girl. But now I don’t feel like I can say it, we know make sure, though it makes me sound like I’m not. And by the way, you guys, I’m so sorry. I sound kind of terrible. I just getting over being sick. So apologies for that. Back to the boys, I will say, after watching this episode, while they still have some work to do on their relationship and need some couples counseling, it feels to me, Austin and Craig seem to want to get back to being buddies again. They’re kind of avoiding each other this weekend, but Craig seems concerned but happy for Austin when Charlie tells him that Austin’s going through a breakup, but he’s like, Yeah, I’m sure he doesn’t want to talk about it right now. I want to give him some space. And then Austin stood up for Craig earlier in the episode, when he and Charlie are talking about that whole game of middle school telephone, going around about what Craig said about being worried Charlie would open up and essentially fall in love with him. I just feel like I don’t know these two crazy kids, Austin and Craig. I think they can make it work, and I’m rooting for their friendship.
[9:58] I agree. I actually. Loved when Craig said Austin will come to him when he’s ready to talk to him about the breakup. That’s being a friend. And even though, like, Craig’s probably, I knew that this wouldn’t go the distance, his first reaction is not to get into Austin’s face and be like I told you. So it was just to, like, give him space, which is amazing. And yes, Austin having Craig’s back in that moment with Charlie is a good sign. They know each other so well, they know how to push each other’s buttons like brothers. They’re in business together for a reason, right? You need to trust and like that person, right? But I do need to say, from watching last night’s episode, I do not love that Vanita is using her hate towards Craig to have Austin’s back. When she said that Austin needs to stand up for himself more basically directing this at Craig. It seems like Austin’s loving that, and that’s not gonna help their relationship. And also, Vanita hating Craig is getting really old to me. What happened? Right? He was going through a huge public breakup, and she didn’t have his side. So she said, he said, What? He said, I don’t think that makes him a bad person. I’m just ready for the season where we just get to see these boys have fun together again.
[11:06] Yeah, I agree. Another discord reference, but we had somebody just say, you know, I want to root for Vanita so badly because she’s been making it kind of hard for all of us this season. I can’t figure out if there’s things that happen off camera that Vanita is truly upset about, or if she’s almost like kind of making hating Craig her storyline,
[11:30] yeah, which is crazy, because she is awesome. She is awesome. Rhea is awesome. Her life is awesome. There are so many things that you can focus on rather than Craig,
[11:41] rather than Craig, and then trying to keep other people, it’s not her job to warn others about Craig’s evils. I’m using quote, unquote right there, because I don’t think he’s evil, but you know what I mean? It’s not right. It’s not her job, no. So I keep wondering about that. And then with Austin and Craig seeing that they’ve been having these, this back and forth issue for strongly, for two seasons. What do you think it is with them? What do you think is the real driver of why they’re constantly at odds? I don’t
[12:12] know if this is true, but it seems when one’s in a serious relationship and the other one is not the other, the one is mad at the other, so Craig was with Paige, and Austin didn’t how Craig was changing his life. Oh, you’re changing yourself, and now Craig is singling it living his best life, and knows that Austin doesn’t want to be with his girlfriend, is annoyed at him that he’s not breaking up. And then they’re like that he’s living his best life. So they need to come up with a plan where they both find the one at the same time. Yeah, because it’s just like they they just don’t know how to be friends with each other when one is living their best life in a relationship.
[12:47] Yeah, and I think there’s that’s a pretty normal, I don’t want to say developmental, because these are grown men, but got a kind of normal stage in life that friendships do change after you get serious with somebody, that you have to start putting them first and you checking with them before you say yes to a girls weekend or even a night out. I think that’s part of it. It just definitely seems to to your point. They kind of hold over each other’s heads when one is single, you know, and the other isn’t, you know, the living the best life when they’re single, it just tells me they haven’t found the right person. Because when you’re I don’t know, I just, I just feel like, yes, the plan needs to be that they decide they find their their own, one at the same time, and then maybe they can be in the same life stage at the same time and move forward that way, double wedding at their wedding venue. That would be so funny. I loved seeing that side of Whitner with his family and the all the love and respect in his home life. He is a really great host, and the way that he’s cooking, and just took the girls around the farm when the boys all went fishing, it just makes him super hot to me, I feel like he’s a really good catch.
[14:01] Yeah, I would show wit the tit My poor husband, poor husband, but he, he knows what he got into. I will, you know, but yeah, I mean, I love getting to see his family and learning about itchy farms, but I still don’t understand Amanda. He’s hot, plus he loves his family, plus he is a lawyer, plus he’s nice. How does that equal single? How?
RHOP Reunion Part 1: Wendy’s Whispering and Stacey Gets Caught Lying
[14:24] How? I don’t know. I mean, there’s something in the water, definitely in Charleston, but it seems like the way that he talks about his breakup, that it didn’t go the way that he wanted. So, you know, maybe he’s just still healing after that. I hope that if he wants love, he finds it because he is truly a catch. Yes, okay, let’s move on to Potomac. We have to talk about Wendy. So the episode starts with a look back at Wendy’s time on the show since 2020 until her arrest with her husband, Eddie on. On October 9 of 2025 I will never forget that day. Yeah, it was wild. So it shows, you know, like a little look back. And then we cut to Wendy and Eddie’s house. So Wendy and Eddie are talking in their comfy clothes in the house. It’s during the week after their arrest. Wendy is whispering, and I can’t tell if this is performing thing or if she’s a shell of herself.
[15:27] Yeah, honestly, I can tell either Amanda, I have to think she’s defeated, so she’s not gonna be all happy. But I did feel it was a bit performative to me at the beginning, but then when Eddie mentions like hearing his daughter on the phone, and he started crying, and then Wendy started crying. That felt very genuine.
[15:45] Yeah, I agree. I tend to think and which makes my heart hurt, that it felt performative. I feel reason I say it makes my heart hurt is because those kids, you know, but yeah, the way that they are talking is not exactly how I would think somebody who’s completely innocent would be talking right? Yeah, it did not give me the most hope. I do hope that the charges are all wrong, but hey, I did not feel they were incredulous or that why? Why would this happened to us. It wasn’t the people, somebody who would be innocent, would be saying a lot of things differently than the way that they were saying them. I 100% agree with that.
[18:41] Do you think when Eddie, I’m sorry, when Wendy asked Eddie what this means for the marriage, do you think that could have been a move, at least at the time, to try to set the scene, to shift the blame to him. I noticed her body language on the couch. It was weird, the way Eddie was kind of sitting on one in the couch, and then Wendy was sideways with her feet closest to him?
[19:01] Yeah, I do think she was trying to paint a picture saying in not so many words, Hey, is your mistake that got me arrested? Going to make me want to divorce you when she said, I’ll never be the same, and I hope you’re okay with it, it was also feeling like she was blaming him, and the not being close on the couch just gave me, we or someone did something wrong vibes,
[19:25] yeah, yeah, just the body language. So it was something just super off. And I’m always thinking about their kids, you know, I think hearing about how the kids reacted, especially their son, Carter, to their arrest, that was so heartbreaking that he found out and he knew, and he said, Where were you? I’ve said many times, I really, truly hope for their kids sake that this is all a huge misunderstanding, yeah, but I don’t know that. I think that’s necessarily the case, but I do think Wendy and Eddie are good parents to those kids. It? Oh, yes, 100% okay. So moving on to Stacy, who had a full on robot moment. Did you see that when her head panned completely left, it was on a swivel. I was like, Girl, we got to work on your mannerisms a little bit. Because there’s a reason people are calling you robotic oil can. So I have not ever been like, a huge fan of Stacy. I find her a little bit annoying, but I think she’s actually really great on the show. I’ve given her, you know, some props for having some really good moments. And I think the way that she handled Gisele’s straight up mean girl behavior at Nevis was awesome and masterful, like that’s, you know, she definitely didn’t give Giselle the satisfaction that I’m sure Giselle was, or the reaction that Giselle was looking for. The ladies all say Stacy lies, Stacey lies, lies, lies. And we know as cocktails that TJ, the TJ thing was a contract. I mean, we shared that on the site, those of you guys who want to go back and look at it, and did you notice? I wonder if any of you guys also caught this, because Andy asks Stacey about her divorce from Timo, and he says, Who filed for divorce? And Stacey pauses for a second, and she goes, I did. And then, God bless production, because they pop up the quote, unquote divorce papers and it clearly shows Timo as the prosecution side and Stacy as the defendant. So if the papers were real, it would have bet Timo actually was one, the one to file. I don’t know why nobody else was talking about this. I can’t help but thank Ashley and Giselle have been on to Stacey about this lying.
[21:43] Yeah, like Stacey went from and still I rise to tell more lies, like the Timo as the prosecution actually went over my head. I did not put that together, but I feel like she has so many different things she lies about, and somehow she always gets away with it. Yeah, I was, I was thinking the whole filing for divorce itself was a lie, and she doctored up
[22:03] the paper. Well, I think, I think that’s probably what happened, because I got who she put as the blood I am telling you guys like as somebody who has been through divorce, you know, and you do not forget who is the plaintiff and who is the defendant, because there are certain legal things that have to happen in certain orders depending on who files. So I think you’re right, because if she was really, truly the one to file, or if he was, she would remember. And that’s where I think you’re right. I think it is doctored up, because that is, if you’ve really been through divorce, you’re not questioning who actually filed, right. We clocked you, Stacey. We’re watching Angel. We haven’t had a chance to talk about her. I’m curious just to get your thoughts just generally about her, because I wanted to like her. I have found her very hard to like. I think that I felt for her so much during that trip to Nevis. Nevis, I don’t know how he said. I don’t know idea. Sorry, guys, I just said in both ways. So just count whichever one I said is right. Because, you know, Giselle went after her really hard, and the cat fishing comment, I thought that was really mean. Now, Giselle might have had a point. I mean, her pictures very much did look different, but to call it out and call it cat fishing. I thought that was really mean of Giselle. But what did you think of Angel this season?
[23:25] Yeah. I mean, listen, I’d be open to giving her a second chance. I feel like she had some rookie season one mistakes that she couldn’t seem to like. Claw her way out of Potomac is a franchise where you need to be quick, witty and fun, shady, and I think if they have her back, she just needs to learn from it and be more light and fun, like it’s not that serious.
Exclusive Summer House Tea That Changes Everything This Season
[23:47] Well, totally. I just don’t know if she’s capable of it. She just seems to be one of those people who can’t get out of her own way. Yeah, I think she’s just like, so focused on her own narrative and keeping a certain kind of appearance. You can be delusional, but I think that if you can’t, to your point, kind of be able to keep it a little bit more light, I don’t think that’s the best place to be. She just seems to be very inflexible, too. And I think as a housewife, you’ve got to kind of go with the flow, and you’ve got to be a little bit flexible, and I think Angel’s inflexibility doesn’t really work on the show. Yeah. So I heard somebody make the comment that I don’t know a few years ago, it felt that on the hallway shows, fans started to call for the removal of the quote, unquote villain on the show. So think of like Janet on the valley, right? Like the people get rid of her. Get rid of her. I never feel just because somebody is the quote, unquote fill in that they need to go and I don’t think Angel. I’m not trying to say Angel was the villain. I just don’t think she’s got the right personality for the show. It’s like she over thought it everything. Yes, yeah. Yes, totally okay, so let’s go. Let’s go to summer house. Let’s go to the Hamptons. As this was such a good episode, I thought so we picked back up at that outdoor dinner. Kyle wants to do a group toast and kind of apologize to the group, and crashes out completely after Sierra and Amanda start to giggle as he’s trying to give us toast. I will say I pretty much never side with Kyle, but I did think it was kind of mean of Amanda and Sierra, but Amanda specifically to be making fun of her own husband out loud in front of him with no regard for him. It just feels that word contempt I keep using regarding Amanda’s behavior towards him. It’s just it’s constantly rearing its ugly head. Did you think that was rude or mean or disrespectful, or were you like?
[25:55] I see both sides. But I also have to point out, Kyle really doesn’t like when people giggle at a dinner table, mention it and turn people into millionaires. So that’s important, yeah, I mean, so we’ll see what happens there. But yes, yeah, it’s rude to be mocking him while he’s apologizing. However, I also understand Amanda being annoyed about the whole show Kyle puts on. Just apologize to your wife in private. Yeah, she’s so over it. And yes, it’s definitely hard to see her like that. But I get it.
[26:25] Yeah, I completely agree.

[29:11] I just think that trying to do that in public, it does sort of, now that I hear you say that, it does, almost to me, kind of justify and it would be hard for her, for her not to do that. I get that. Well, Kyle calms down eventually and tries to apologize, which actually starts to go well, until then, he says, Well, I tried to apologize to you all week, but I couldn’t, because you’re always high. Yeah, so you know that’s like, I’m sorry, but that wasn’t exactly and I’m sorry, but apology. So the next day, when Jesse’s chatting with Sierra, he’s telling her his love life is kind of meh. Sierra starts to tell him, You should date somebody who has an opinion, who doesn’t let you get away with being crappy, someone like me. Do you think that was a veiled statement? Do you think she wanted Jesse to read the between? The lines. Or do you think she really just was like, You need somebody who doesn’t let you get away with your BS first? Can I just say Kyle talking about Amanda smoking weed when he acts like a man child and gets drunk like 80% of his life is real rich. Seriously, please. Okay, I agree. Sir, take several seats well. And she says, too, by the way she goes the dogs at 10 o’clock and then doesn’t light up a joint or whatever, until after that. What Kyle like you don’t have an opportunity to talk to your wife before 10 o’clock at night.
[30:31] Yeah, yeah, because he is busy doing what Kyle’s doing, right? Uh huh, right. But the Sierra combo with Jesse, Okay, listen, I’m Team era, or maybe we call it Sierra. I don’t know what their couple names gonna be, but I think she was hitting hinting to herself with Jesse, but I don’t like her and Jessie together. I feel like they’re perfect as friends, and I’m here to see what’s gonna go on with her and Wes. I’m with b I’m totally attracted to Wes, and I just love him on social media. I love the whole relationship. I love everything about him, and that’s where I want the focus to be.
[31:07] Yeah, I agree. Wes has gotten way hotter this season, especially I think that I don’t want to see Wes. I could see Wes and Sierra together, but not now, and it’s very cute because you can see they have, they both have admitted they’re attracted to each other. They have said that they wouldn’t mind making out again. But I don’t think Wes has gotten his fill of man about town and that kind of thing yet. I just don’t think he’s I don’t think he’s probably there yet again.
[31:39] I just don’t understand Sierra, my friend Becca, who came to Bravo come with me, was just saying Sierra is, like, probably the prettiest person on reality television. And forget about looks, because it’s not about that. She’s also so intelligent and fun, especially now she’s on Prozac. Now she’s having, she’s having the time of her life. How do not just grab that.
[32:02] Yeah, I know. I seriously, this makes me sound so creepy, but when they’re doing the Dirty Dancing lifts on the beach, you know, I’m like that her body, most women would feel a little self conscious doing a jump in a bikini with somebody grabbing you in the midsection. And Matt Sierra, because she her body is, she’s just absolutely a gorgeous specimen of a person. Yeah, she’s the whole package. She is. She really is. So at the beach, Amanda and Kyle talk on apology dune. Very much. Still within your shot. So the rest of the group was listening. I mean, okay, so as they’re chatting, I have to say, again, I kind of see a little bit of both sides. I’m very definitely on Amanda’s side, and I agree that Kyle can be just such a baby, but Kyle feeling like Amanda is just indifferent to him and doesn’t ask him about himself and says no to everything socially. Okay, understand that. Why Kyle would be feeling like that. But then it’s like, okay, Kyle, why do you think Amanda’s acting like that? And it’s because you’re making the choice to DJ, and not just DJ, but then you DJ, and then you stay out for five hours until five in the morning, six in the morning, when you’re doing that. And so of course Amanda is going to feel and of course, she’s gonna say to him, I need to see your actions. I need to see, you know, like, I’ve been saying the same thing for years. I don’t understand why you don’t hear what I’m saying. She’s like, I feel like I’m crazy. Then she says, You need to get your drinking under control. And of course, Kyle kind of loses his mind because he doesn’t want he’s like, I don’t I only drink socially, which fine. I mean, me too, but I don’t go out with my girlfriends and then stay out at somebody else’s house until 630 in the morning. I’m a married woman. What the heck yeah, you know she’s like, I need to know that my husband’s responsible enough to go out on his own and come back and then, of course, Amanda’s like, Well, me not going out with you shouldn’t change your faithfulness and how intoxicated you get when you go out. So Kyle loses it, runs in the ocean after he says, compatibility, chemistry, intimacy, blah, blah, blah, I don’t know who I married anymore. Again, acts like a complete baby, because to me, it seems very simple. He could say, Okay, Amanda, I hear you, and when we go out tonight, I will, I won’t. I won’t stay out past midnight and after, in the fall, when my DJ stuff starts picking back up, I will call you and check in at after my set, and I will go back to my hotel room instead of staying out all night. These feel like easy enough things to do. He just doesn’t want to do it.
[34:46] Yeah, Kyle, if you’re listening, it’s you, hi, you’re the problem. It’s you, ha. I mean, Kyle cannot ever take accountability for anything that he’s done from the time he’s dated Amanda to the time he’s been in. Married to Amanda. I can understand the normal couple issue with one being social and one not being social. Intimacy, communication, fine, but this is something different. In my opinion. Kyle has his own set of rules, and he is allowed to do whatever he wants. He talks shit about his wife to everyone. He goes out to all hours of the night and doesn’t come home to his wife sober, masking it as him, saving them from financial stress. We know he’s a cheater. I just feel like any complaint he has doesn’t matter because you’re not faithful and you don’t respect your wife. I don’t blame Amanda for being indifferent at this point right now, they’re both getting along and respecting each other because they decided to separate. They just, like, were not right for each other. And Amanda’s gonna meet someone, and she’s gonna be a totally different person because she’s gonna be with the right person. You know what? I mean?
[35:50] Yeah, yeah. Cuz, like, it’s a pretty big extreme for Kyle to say you’re you’re not social anymore. Well, yeah, Amanda probably doesn’t want to be out until three in the morning, which I’m sure she likes to go out and have fun. There’s a way to do that and still be home by 11 o’clock at night. And he’s like, Well, she knows who she married, or says something like that. And I’m like, Oh, I hate that, because that’s just him saying, This is how I always was. This is I shouldn’t have to change. I don’t want to change. She should have just known and that the faithfulness thing to me, really has nothing to do with partying, but he kind of lumps it all together, right? Like this is just who he is, man child. Yeah, he is. He is, as Wes said, he is being a baby B and I have been kind of chatting over the last couple weeks that if we are getting pictures and videos and emails and DMS about Kyle’s question of behavior, and this goes back for a while, quite a while, I will just say, you know, the staying at college parties, the getting really cozy with a girl in the corner in Charleston. We’ve said, if we’re getting these, surely Amanda is getting them too. And sure enough, she brings it up on camera. Yep.
[37:06] Can you even imagine what it was like to get pictures and videos like that and have to be at public events and be with your friends and family, just knowing that was sent to you, I feel like that might have been the straw that broke the camel’s back. I don’t know.
[37:20] Yeah, and then he’s like, I wake up. You’re mad at me every morning. And she’s like, well, of course, because you’re out and I’m getting DMS and texts about your bad behavior. So of course, I’m mad at you because you’re you’re acting like a complete drug. Yeah. So
[38:00] a little tea for everybody. This is, we’ll call this a cocktails and gossip exclusive. Yeah. So as all of you guys know, we have been talking about Kyle and Amanda’s split since October. We told you guys all that we got intel about them splitting even before that. So last week, bee and I chatting, we had speculated there were, like, B actually said Amanda might have even been living because they had two units she and Kyle, one was for lover boy, and one was for their living space in the same building. And she said Amanda might have even been just living in that other unit that they have in the same building before October. So this week, we got some more intel on the actual timing from source.

[41:23] our source wrote to us and said, Yeah, you guys were right. Kyle and Amanda actually separated in June before filming started, and that she had moved into one of the other units in the building, which makes so much sense watching the show. So think back about all of their reactions and where she didn’t even want to go to The Hamptons the first weekend in the same car with him. She didn’t speak to him, really, the whole first weekend, like all of the snickering, all of the laughing, it makes so much sense. The Source actually told us that her actual move out to the other apartment building in October was done for the spin off, just like we thought,
[42:06] Oh, my guys, basically, Amanda was planning on putting on a show for all of us, but her dislike of Kyle and her doneness with the marriage was way stronger that she just couldn’t fake it. Obviously by seeing that first episode and
[42:27] like maybe her and Kyle had some sort of agreement, and the fact that she’s acting so ick towards him is why he’s really upset.
[42:27] Yeah, I think it is because I think also he’s reacting to like, oh, this actually might be real. This isn’t just Amanda getting mad and throwing a fit and but we’ll really get back together. I think, I think it’s starting to actually feel real for him, and I think that’s what we’re seeing. Yeah, it’s crazy. So another thing that we were sent in in the last week was, I don’t know if you guys are familiar with the podcast, watch what crappins. The hosts are, Ben and Ronnie. Shout out to you guys at watch what crap and they confirmed that quote, unquote night out with his brother in February, where Kyle stayed out at a fan’s house, was actually the night of the watch what crappins yearly award shows the crappies that Kyle had attended. So a person writes in and said, My friends and I went to the after party, and Kyle was taking shots with older ladies, and she person said, I have a video. Lol. And then when they were leaving around 2am we saw him arguing on FaceTime with Amanda. And then we asked if they the person would send us a video. And person said, I just don’t want to out myself also other fan faces in the video. I don’t want to post without permission, but he’s fist pumping and super drunk and hugging this much older lady. Lol at the time,
[43:49] I’m scared to know how old this lady is. Is she my age? Like, is this cocktail 26 and this woman’s like, 46 I would die, but taking shots with older ladies and yelling at a soon to be ex wife Amanda. Is this the same man that was pushing to have kids on Amanda last season. Now that he’s free to do whatever he wants, he should definitely live his best life, but I’m just so like curious to see how things are going to turn out for him by next summer.
[44:16] Yeah, he just might end up being one of those people who has who is a bachelor for life after I only in Shep, he’s like a witness. Yeah, I just don’t see how you if you’re saying this after saying that. You know, I love Amanda, but I just I’m not. I refuse to change, and I will continue to stay out until three in the morning, like it’s not looking good for him to have a true partnership in his future, if he’s just really not willing to change.
[44:46] Yeah, you know what else is interesting? So, like, I was just thinking about like Whitney and Shep, they’re loaded, right? They can do whatever they want, right? They don’t have anything that’s making them have to feel like they need to get married or settle down or have kids. Kyle. I. I feel like life is in a spiral. Right? How he lover boy isn’t doing well. He’s DJing to make ends meet. You’d think somebody who also, like, has parents that have been together with a stable marriage and all this stuff, he would want that too, and have something stable, yeah? Like he rejects it. He just doesn’t want to do that, I feel like for him and like, if he let’s just say he just keeps partying like he does them. 10 years from now, I think he’s gonna regret
[45:28] Yeah, like, look around and be lonely, yeah. And I don’t know if maybe men like that just expect that they will find it maybe, like, well, I will settle down, but the person has to be okay with my bad behavior. I don’t know if you know some men are like that, but I agree with you that he’s he’s gonna find himself coming up short if he doesn’t make some compromises in his future relationships. This one seems to be done. Yeah. Did you want to talk about what we were talking about before we got on today?
[46:05] Oh, my God, are you talking about my favorite show on Instagram? Yes. Okay, so hold on, because I actually so All right, guys, Kelly Dodd, hot mess of a woman, clearly racist. Lady is going off on this woman. This like plastic surgeon, well respected, smart woman. Her name is Divya, and I think you pronounced her last name Srinivasa. She like you guys
[46:46] have to see this. The responses that this woman has to Kelly Dodd’s racist rants on Instagram is pure gold. It’s pure gold. I’ve been watching from the beginning. I can’t stop have, like, have you seen any? Oh, Amanda,
[46:46] I have and I mean, just to give you an example of one of the ways that Kelly is acting in racist ways, instead of trying to figure out how to say so, like they’re full on, battling at each other with the green screen showing each other’s picture, and then ran, they’re doing it that way, right? And at one point, Kelly does like Dr Fuller, instead of even attempting to pronounce her name. Because I find it that at least, if you try in a legitimate way, that least you’re trying if you still get it wrong. You know, if somebody corrects you, then you do better. But Kelly Dodd isn’t even trying. She’s just like, dr, in a completely disrespectful way, and
[47:29] she says something like, Kelly’s saying, oh, and she’s a plastic sir, a breast augmentation, which is the bottom of the totem pole. And this woman comes back. She’s like, actually, Kelly, if you looked up in the culture at the bottom of the totem pole is the most well respected of class. So thank you so much. And I actually help women with breast cancer and do breast augmentations for that. So thank you very much. And like the comebacks and she’s so much smarter, it’s a joy To watch. Yeah, it really is. Porque Toyota tiene veinticinco,
[50:57] In terms of intelligence, Kelly’s definitely bringing a knife to a gunfight. And you know, she’s now, she’s saying publicly that her this the dermatologist that Dr Divya, is causing her to lose brand deals. Oh God, which to me, I’m like, come on. No, Kelly, you’re causing yourself to lose brand deals. When you go on there and you are this disrespectful and ugly and you say racist things. That’s exactly how you lose brand deals.
[51:25] Yeah. And then she looked it up, and she said, the brands don’t even work with you anymore. The codes that you have are from like, a year or two ago, like, like, she keeps, like, digging herself in the hole, and then, oh, my god. I can’t remember what it was, but Kelly pronounced a word wrong. And it was pretty amazing.
[51:42] Oh, she said, pronunciate Yes. Like, I can’t pronunciate it. And it’s like, oh, I mean, just stop who, at this point, is still a big fan of Kelly’s. And, you know, Kelly, learn from, I don’t want to say, your elders, but learn from your peers of what can happen. You know, Kelly could really put herself in a bad position if she unapologetically race, saying these racist things and then doubling and tripling and quadrupling down on them on social media. Well, there’s no helping Kelly. Dodd, I feel like she is so such a narcissist, and she’s so she can’t hear the other side, or I see how bad she is. So I’m gonna continue watching the show and just enjoy seeing somebody so stupid. It’s true. I’m taken down by somebody so so smart. Tracy was right. It really is the best show. And it’s like every every time I open Instagram, I feel like there’s another update. So I hope that Dr Divya is getting a lot more followers, a lot more clients, patients, whatever it is that she that her goal is just generally in life. I’m hoping it’s coming back to her in trouble.
[52:56] Wait, Where does she live? I have to find out, because no one’s gonna happen. She’s gonna become a housewife, and that’s gonna be the biggest fuck you the Kelly Dodd, oh my god, we will never get hired by Bravo again. And that is actually how I hope that happens.
[53:08] Oh, that would be such a perfect full circle moment. I would love it. At least get Andy, get her on watch. What happens like because I know Andy is no fan of Kelly Dodd, either.
[53:18] Yes, oh my god, yeah, it’s, it’s gonna be good for her, yeah.
