Well, hello and welcome to Watch What Crapins.

I'm Ronnie and that's Ben. Hello, Ben. Hello, Ronnie. How are you? Good.

Welcome to Real Housewives of Potomac, Reunion Pods. Three, everybody. We had a great weekend at the Golden Crapies. It was a really fun fantastic show. And it is still available.

It's available for the next two weeks. Go to GetLinks for tickets over at WatchWhatCrapins.com. It was amazing. There was a backstreet boy. Yeah, we had a backstreet boy.

We were. We broke into a new tier of Crapies, Ness,

which is that we had AJ from the backstreet boys there,

which was wonderful.

Who was so lovely when I wrote a speech and everything?

He was literally so nice. He was so down to Earth. This is someone who performs at the sphere. And on top of that, he's like a global superstar. And the fact that he just came and there was no ego about it.

He just was down for the fun. He just wanted to help out and do all the things. He was really great and quite frankly, everyone across the board was lovely. And our friends, Paul and Michelle were sort of like,

and Colleen were sort of doing a lot of stuff backstage. They were coordinating, dealing with all the guests. And the next day, we were all just chatting. And like, what the feedback that we got was, everyone was so kind and so nice.

It's just really nice to hear that about, Bravo Lebanese celebrities, just guests in general. There was just no issues from anyone, everyone was chill. And we just really appreciate that. And I think that's, isn't that just like great to hear,

that what people are nice, you know? Yeah, everybody really was so nice.

And having all those, we had like 50 or 60 people backstage

at one point, just party and having so much fun. And everybody was so supportive of each other. And I don't know, it's just so great, you know, 'cause we work alone most of the time, just the two of us. And we have a great time with each other.

But to have so many people that we work around to work with throughout the year, it's just so great. So thanks to everybody. So go get your tickets for that at [email protected]. Today, this week is crazy.

There's so many new things on. We've got Potomac ending. We've got the valley ended already. We just came out with that recap. You know, the other stuff is still going.

Then we've got ladies of London starting. Southern hospitality starting. I mean, it's nuts. It's a lot. And I have to say, I watched Southern hospitality yesterday

amazing. It is great. Of course, it is. I can't wait. So good.

I mean, it just starts at 100. I mean, it is so, so good. So I'm excited for that one.

Also, if you want our videos on, if you want our recaps on video,

go get those along with Trader's bonus episodes and add free listening over at patreon.com. Also, our new newsletter just came out. And we're going to have a crappy newsletter this week, just kind of journaling about, you know, what was happening

backstage and all that good stuff. That'll be out later. Those are free. So just go get that at patreon.com. And what's he today is real housewives of what?

I'll just say, and by the way, thanks to patreon, or they're after, I mean, they're pre-party at the crappiest, which was great, and thanks to everyone who came to that. Yeah, that was a good one. All right, everybody.

Thanks. Let's go to real housewives of Potomac season 10. Episode 20, reunion pod 3. So where we left off, Monique has just told Stacy, listen, you know, I wanted to believe you on all this stuff,

but then I found out you were really talking to Chris. And here's my proof, and she whipped out her phone, and she starts playing something, and then we cut off. So we start this week where we ended, which is her playing this video. And it turns out this video is one long.

Yeah, it's just an emergency broadcast system. It's one long beat, and then we see everyone's face. And of course, Giselle is acting the most shocked like we got her.

We finally got her, but no one heard anything.

No one heard a thing. Yeah, I don't really know what I could kind of discern was that someone was saying, hey, Stacy and Chris went on a date.

I don't know what it was.

I have no it clearly someone was talking shit. Someone said that's the name. Yeah, they couldn't even say their name.

And so basically, the gist of it is that someone told Chris

that Monique was shooting with her children, which made Chris file whatever. And Chris was coming after Monique.

And they're blaming Stacy for this, because who else would tell?

You know, this person says, Stacy was the one. Some girl on your cast name, Stacy. So she's like, well, what's that about? And so Andy Asser, and she's like, I did not tell Chris that. And yes, I was in the room with you Monique,

because you were in my room, and I came in to use the bathroom. And I literally just went through the divorce. I literally just went through custody and all those things. Why an earth? What I could involve in your business and your family.

And she's like, that's my question. And so Karen is like, can I just say something, Amy? And Stacy goes, no, I am with my husband and my family. We're back together. And why would I want to harm you?

I don't talk to Chris. I talked to my husband, who my live with, who's also my husband. And we have our Bella together, because he's my husband. And I'm worried about my family, not yours. On the flip side, why would believe make that up?

Everybody knows bleep is pretty trustworthy.

And just I was like, yes, that's what I was going to say.

I will always trust bleep.

By the way, Ronnie, I was sort of hoping since you're really good about going on Reddit and digging stiff up stuff up. And since also, I know you were finding some headlines today for crappy hour, which is tonight at 530 West Coast time. I was hoping you might find some conspiracy theories on who bleep is.

Did you find anything on your behavior? The only thing that draft people seem to be saying is it was either a stylist, but I don't know why they would have to cut that out. Or it was Kevani, her kid, her daughter. And they were saying maybe that's why they had to beep it out because it was a kid and

they couldn't put the kid on camera. But that's like a really good theory. I was like, I was thinking who else would bleep that? I was like, does it TJ maybe? But then TJ probably would be happy with having his name on TV.

Yeah, that's a great, I think it's the kid, I'm going to say that.

But basically, the kid talked to Chris and he was trying to jump in.

Let me say this. And say, say, let me finish. No, but I'm okay. I'll let you finish it. Kevani is just trying her hardest to get in the original conversation.

This has nothing to do with you, man. So Stacy's like, well, I have no idea why bleep would say that, but I've not spoken to Chris about you and your children in filming. I did speak to him about stones. I'd like to sell him a really good Christmas tree skirt with rain tear on it.

I tried to get him into a snuggie.

So Andy is like, where are you in contact with Chris while you were in production?

No, I was not. I never called him. Why would I do that? Well, you said you weren't in contact, but you were, but you were because you showed me text messages from him before it even came around the group.

So well, I'm sorry, but that doesn't hold water because she showed you, we see the clip of her saying, look, he texted me, hey, what's up? I hear I'm being talked about on the show, but she didn't text him back, which was the whole point and showing you those texts that he contacted her, but she didn't text him back.

So I don't think it's fair to be like, well, you were in contact with him now. He contacted her. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

I mean, it's hard to know it's with this new piece of evidence, it's really hard to weigh in on like what seems real or not real. It's all bleached out. So I honestly just can't comment on it, but I don't know, I just don't think it's like an open and shut case that's Stacy is the one who contacted Chris.

I just don't think, and if she did, like, if she did, this is what I think happened. And I'm not like even trying to be a Stacy apologist, but I'm just trying to realistically think about how could have gone down of Stacy did it. I don't think Stacy is the type that would call up Chris and be like, ooh, Moniqueus, you're did it, but I think she would be since Stacy does no Chris, and she doesn't know Monique

really at all. I don't think she would be, I can imagine doing something like, by the way, Chris, your ex was here, and she was filming and talking about your divorce just so you know, like she's like, I know Chris. I don't know Monique.

I'm not saying that that's good. I do think it's a violation of girl code that she did it, but I also don't, I just can't imagine Stacy doing it in like a real salacious gossipy way. I could just sort of see her doing it in a like heads up person that I know, this is happening on camera.

Well, it's just being on even saying, oh, he was talking about your marriage, because she did all that on camera. So that stuff was going to come out anyway. This is, you know, you accused her of bringing the kids on camera, which didn't even happen, which caused it to her fluffle and that they had to wait months for it to, whatever.

But, you know, Chris is massive.

We saw the text of Chris saying, hey, I heard they're talking about me in filming. So we already see that Chris is being messy. Monique already knows that Chris is being messy and Chris is constantly trying to start shit with Monique anyway.

So it's always tricky standing up for Stacy, because Stacy has told some woppers.

So yeah, you know, you don't want to get into that, but at the same time, I think that

it's ridiculous to get mad at someone when you know that your husband is the one being drama and causing all the problems. And if you don't want your husband causing drama about you shooting, then don't shoot the show, because he's going to cause problems no matter what. And again, I also, I do wonder about, like, cookie, I wonder about angel, maybe casually

mentioning something to Bobby and then Bobby maybe casually mentioning something. Chris, I just, I can just sort of see things going in different directions. I think it's Keer and I telling cookie and then cookie calling Chris, because they keep mentioning, which they will again in the second, they keep saying, oh, well, you know, the second we left that dinner, Chris was calling and already had the information.

Well, Keer and I was the one sitting at the bar, Keer and I was the one who had the time to call him. Everybody else, who even had the time to call Chris? Well, I think though that, no, because Keer and I said the bar, that was in the, that was in the wake of this, that was when, oh, that's true.

It was like after Pride when they all sat that long table, I don't know, and the truth is, I actually have, I actually really don't care about the whole thing there, but like,

I just find myself, like, getting into the, the weeds with this stuff, I think it's just

hard. If we had heard, I'm sure if we had been able to hear that conversation, we may have been like, oh, well, yeah, maybe that does sound really bad for Stacey, it's just like, hard. We don't, we just don't know.

But the other one on stage do seem fairly convinced.

I will say that. They do, they've been convinced the whole season and it's just the same people coming after her over and over. So it's like, you know, two dummies telling each other exactly, you know, and that meme, it's been the same thing.

Like Salt Lake City, they're all convinced Meredith did this horrible thing or whatever. Well, yeah, you've been telling each other that over and over all seasons, you're sticking to your guns. But I don't have to believe it. My biggest disappointment here is that, you know, we've been waiting for this huge bombshell,

and it was nothing. It was one long leap. So if you can't come on with anything more than a leap, it's an admissible in this court of law. I will not accept it.

And I do feel like there's like an undercurrent of the fact that Stacey became, like,

audience favorite. In fact, I mean, she want, she actually won best bravo liberty at our show. The people like we had like thousands of votes and people voted for Stacey, like she's super popular. She's, you know, the president now.

She's, I mean, that's the highest honor that not only a bravo liberty could get a celebrity could get. And, but it is, it also, it really is a testament. That's like a, that's a real testament to her popularity. And I don't think the women like that.

I think they see her as a newbie who comes in, and they see her as like a little bit of a

fakey, and somehow the audience loves her, and it's not fair, and, um, I think they're pissed. Yeah. It's time for commercial. It's time for Grapins commercial.

Indie, start out reden. So, Karen is like, "Well let me just say this, one of the biggest issues that I had is when I met you the way that, you know, you poured it all on the line, you were so vulnerable. I loved that they're giving Monique her own award. They're all doing it this season.

They're like, "Oh my God, Monique, you were just so vulnerable. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. I'm not going to do anything. Karen is like, you know, I mean, money was so vulnerable and in that same day when I

get in the car, I leave there. I talked to Cookie and she was so upset about the situation and said, well, if this doesn't get squared away, he's going to center a season to sit and you did that Stacey and that was rough. The fact that Chris is calling Cookie who is going to do all of this cast to be

messy, I just think that shows you who you're dealing with here. Cookie and Chris and I love that Stacey goes, we're literally talking about Cookie Monique or you're listening to this and what is he all wants me about reason? Who are we?

Why are we trusting Cookie or Chris? And also, Karen, you left this lunch and you called up Cookie, why did you

Call up Cookie or I'm going to be able to give you all this stuff?

Maybe Cookie called her, but either way.

Even so, she knows she's going to be able to call her and talk about tea from filming, which is the whole thing that this is about, somebody leaking, filming to Cookie and that's exactly what Karen is admitting to doing right now. Yeah. I think that's like someone should have kind of grilled her on.

I'm like still in Trader's mode, so I'm like, why was no one, what about that line of questioning? Why didn't they talk about that at the round table? I think they called her right after the show and she said, this is what happened in Cookie said, well, he'll file a season to sit next to her and I tell them and the shit has to

stop. Yeah. And I think that Karen doesn't remember saying it. I'm actually going to say she has plausible deniability, because just as how she didn't

remember that she said chin checked, she totally forgot that she said chin checked.

I think she just doesn't actually maybe remember the stuff that she says to Cookie. I'm not sure, but something is like, I just think there's something weird. If you talk to Cookie afterwards, like, why is Cookie calling? I don't know. I don't know.

But, um, can I just tell you what is happening to me right now?

We are saying Cookie so many times and I found myself searching in my email for my girl's got cookies because I ordered a girl's got cookies, a listener was like, would you buy some girl's got cookies? And I was like, fuck, yes, I will send me 20 boxes or what if send me 10 boxes? I don't know how many are we're doing.

And then I was thinking, where are my thinments? Where are they? And guess what? Just open FedEx. Where are they?

Oh, lucky. There's no tracking here. Wait, I'm home. Oh, I agree. Label X box.

Hey, Ronnie.

I think that would be a great time to mention.

I did forget to mention this on the value episode when I was acting like I was giving an acceptance award for our show. But we did mention that the Patreon Pre-party was catered by something about her. And I think something that people don't realize, everyone knows, it's a restaurant built on sandwiches.

People don't realize they serve enormous delicious cookies that are the size of umbrellas. I mean, those things, those things that make Levane cookies look like little adorable, you know, like a mousse bushes. These were these cookies that they have at something about her are massive and they were delicious.

And I feel like people should know that. It needs to get out. Those were great. I was really bummed, actually, because I had hidden some to eat after the show and I left them there.

No, I put them on your bag. Someone took them there because they weren't there when I was there. Because they were up. So they were up on, I took them out of the hiding place, because I didn't want you to forget them.

So, and then I took them from the hiding place and I put them on your bag, and you're back. Oh, I'm back. Oh, I don't know. I literally did.

Yes. Yes. I'm sorry. I really miss. So anyway, Stacey's like, whatever I didn't do it, and Andy's like, I watch

people's expressions. I watch body language Wendy, and I've had my eye on you, and it feels like you're looking at Stacey waiting for her to confess.

Why does Wendy get to talk about other people confessing?

Why are we asking Wendy for other people to confess when her? That's as lying through her teeth in this episode. And she's like, well, I don't think I'm waiting for her to confess. I feel like I'm seeing in real time the tides of turning, and then once pointing the thing good her, and to hear sleep, say that, take it to a different level, and that's just

where I'm at. So that was a non-answer. Okay. Any response, Stacey. She's like, no.

Okay. What? Whatever. I love Stacey in that moment. She's like, whatever.

No. Okay. What does Monique think? And she's like, well, I'm going to be bleep over anybody. So we all know the daughter is pretty dependable.

It's got to be the daughter. That's a great theory. Whoever came up with that on the internet, I think you did a great job there with that. Ready to Jones came up with that. I think that's a good one.

Ready to Jones. So I'm just like, I just want to see the Jones. No, it's her Reddit sister, ready to. Where she did Jones like, wow, it's a theory that came from a very glamorous place. That theory has bangs.

Oh, so Monique is like, well, that's my number one. And then we hear bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep. So when bleep said somebody on your show said, someone on your show's name is Stacey. I'm like, well, how do you know that? And Andy's like, what's your response, Stacey, and she goes, um, I wouldn't do that

to you. But then why are their daggers out for you to the magnitude that they are? And she's like, I have nothing to gain from being involved with your ex husband. And I would beg for you to be smarter in this moment. And everyone's like, oh, but Monique is like, I don't want to have an issue with you.

I just don't like, I don't, I don't feel like I know where this information is being leaked. And then the only person that keeps coming up is you, unfortunately, because so why don't

we all sit down and talk to Chris, because he's never going to be accountable.

So Jazzy's like, and if you had sex with him and probably still having sex with him, I'd doubt that he'd be honest anyway.

It's like, okay, Jazzy, whatever.

So Jazzy can't be. He is. I don't know over there. What a surprise.

You had sex with him and you're probably still have sex with him.

Okay. Okay, Jazzy. Jazzy.

And you didn't have to do that.

And the fact that somebody would go around, and like, bastardize that conversation, it's called you, huh, it was horrible. Okay, well, we're going to leave it there. I just said it was serious, Andy. Well, it's over now.

I would like to go back to it. She was so vulnerable. Well, let's be a serious, pretty Wendy is on serious. Okay. segue into nothing.

Okay, I want to talk about hosting and trips, because ever since Jazzy landed in care and seed on a birthday, back in season one, because we aren't going to kind of try to make this a 10 year retrospective thing, okay. So I had to get in hosting have been the other words on the street of Betelmick. Let's watch.

We see a package of all the events and trips and things that happened over the year, including the Colorado trip. So we come back and we'll, um, ask you from Chuset said, "Just have the great job hosting the trip to Nevis. "Jusel, do you regret intentionally excluding Stacey from aspects of the trip?"

I eat. Not embroidering a robe. That was so funny. She's like, "No, but I will apologize for giving you a large robe. I did not mean to fat shame you.

I would have given you a robe that fit, but I still wouldn't have put the name on it because I'm shady." Yeah. Seriously, it's shady, excepted. Oh, really?

Rubber from bands, it angel, why do you keep making people sit in the silent circles like your events? You know what? I understand that it's not for this group now.

I get that the meditation, this is not the meditation sit around the soundball group, okay?

I mean, it gets like, "Oh, I actually would have, I'd love some bowls. I would have loved to have been there." By the way, I would have loved Andy to have asked some question about all the men who sat

there silently in a circle as well, staring at the women on that trip, and it never came

up, and I'm really upset about it because that was one of the moments of this season. Yeah. It was pretty gross. So then they talk about how fun it was when they were singing and they should come out with a group called the Potomac ponies, guys, when that'd be fun.

And then we see Ashley being nasty, and the tweets about Ashley singing that were nasty to Ashley, because Ashley's like, "I would beat the Diana Ross of the group and they're like, right." And we see all the tweets that are like, "What burn of flack is rolling over in her grave?" And Andy's like, "Whoa, what about Stacy's potato salad?" and I'm like, "See, why are we asking

about the potato salad when we couldn't ask about those guys?" Right? And no one liked it. Okay. Well, so, and, for RAPSED, Tia, what did your co-workers aka the white people think when they

watched the poll of an episode? Hello. Hello. Game for the employed. Yes, I'm still a game for the employed there, and I've sold them all in one house,

by the way, Tiazi. She goes, "Good. Now you can take care of your hubby." Yes, it was good.

And it was better than you $150,000, that's how that's happened.

And she says, again, now you can go take care of your hubby. Her husband works. Ma'am, doesn't her husband work at NASA or something? Yeah, I'm like, "Did you not notice his, like, slim fit banana republic corporate button down shirt that he wears every episode?"

He works. He's like, "Um, your husband may work for NASA, but my husband throws a ball." So, yeah, I try a little bit. Oh, that's another thing I would have liked on this reunion.

Would have been Andy, grilling angel a little bit about her, always being like, "As

an elder wag, I'm being really, very braggy about things all the time." I felt like that was like a big, that wasn't a big thing, but it's something I would have liked her to have been confronted with. You know? Yeah, but you know what, Angel, I mean, Angel had the biggest moment of the season with

that trip and she's just a sad. It's like, I think Andy was just at this point of warning questions with Angel, because every year I was like, "Well, let me tell you how I'm feeling." It's like, "Oh my God." But it's a door droopy.

Close the door. No. It's like the elevator opens, going down. Angel's a little bit like how dying in 2001, space audaces. So, Andy is like, "Okay, I want to talk about Colorado, the worst gastrip in real

House, let's history.

Andy is like, "Not happy about this Colorado trip I'd like to say." He does not seem to find the camp value that I personally found in it. I think people are divided on this trip. I think that you either are like, "That was awful, why were we watching that?" Or you think that was so hilarious, because it was so shitty.

I'm in the latter camp, obviously, I've said it a million times in this podcast, but I

think that Andy was genuinely upset about it. I feel like in his mind, it's like, it's like, "Turners the brand of the housewives." But I don't know.

I thought it was like the best thing I've seen in forever.

I loved it. Yeah. So, they're talking about how they put Ashley and Giselle on the little room together, and how funny it was, and Angel's like, "They deserved it." And just I was like, "Boo, can I make a toast?"

"Tamato." Okay. Giselle, you attempted to take over the trip when no water issues persisted. She's like, "Absolutely, yeah." So, he asked if they thought it was overstepping, and of course, Kira and a steps in there.

And money's like, "But you didn't even have to stay in the house." So, what are you talking about? Yeah.

And so, basically, Giselle's like, "Yes, I think Andy should redirect the question,

"Everybody who's house with who has had no water, 'cause we were stuck with no water." Okay. And Kenneth's like, "Well, it's not like I haven't dealt with bad issues on trips before. And then we see a clip from when Kira and her diarrhea on a trip." Like, you haven't diarrhea is not the same as being put in accommodations where there's

no water. Like, that's not what I mean. That's in you. Yeah. That was so funny.

She's like, "I've had plenty of problems on trips, and they sure were running to the bathroom." Yeah. So, Angel apologizes again, and she's like, "Yeah, but you know what? You just said you were sorry, we went through that. We didn't get that at the time.

Oh, she's like, "Well, I wasn't on the text thread, and the only reason I even knew what happened is because I call jazzy to see how you ladies are doing.

But as a host, you should have been checking on us about everything now."

Hmm. Well, I felt that the priority was to try to find a solve first so that I could get you guys a better location. And then he's like, "Okay, here's a question, how did you all get so lost?" And she's like, "Well, someone who needs to get to know me and they will get to know

me soon enough, drop me a pin, and who was actually at the location in real time." Like, I don't know why she's so funny, she's like, "She's at their location in real time. It wasn't a prerequisite." Like, outlander.

She's like, "Yeah, I got it. I got someone dropping me a pin, you know, five hours after, but it arrived before it. So, who cares? Of course, there was in real time.

And if someone dropped you a pin where they were, then why did it take you to the wrong place?" None of this makes sense. Yeah. That just found out that Giselle had a whole text thread for the group trip without angel

on it. That's so funny. Yeah. She's like, "Oh, you guys had a whole text thread without me. How am I supposed to know?"

Yeah. And then on screen, we see the production text angel to say that her staff sent the wrong pins. Her staff sent the wrong pin. And again, we discussed this at the time.

Why did her staff send a pin in the first place? They should have sent an address.

Because honestly, every place has an address at this point.

Given if you're on a campsite, there's going to be a listing for that campsite. If they had to find the campsite on the Internet, and if you found the campsite on the Internet, then you had an address. They got to that campsite at some point. It wasn't just like a pin.

They got perpetually sent forward, and they were like, "How did they get there?" The first one. They had an address. Why don't you send the address? Don't drop pins.

So, somebody addressed that port of piety that that dude was cooking that five star dinner in front of. And then we see, basically, it's just that the pin drama, and Tia's, "Well, took us forever, and we didn't get pizza on the side of the road, either. I'll tell you that."

Hmm. Yeah, that's true. We didn't really think about that. They were not fed. They were just driving around, and Giselle was like, "That's embarrassing.

Yeah, we never ended a season in a gas station.

Like you haven't technically ended a season in a gas station, but we also had a season ender where everyone went to Shannon's backyard, and they laid a rock song that was written by Richard Marks, so like you're honestly, sometimes these things just don't work out for you guys. Yeah.

Sometimes the banquet hall gets canceled and we, we're okay, well, it's just be grateful, you know. So, he's like, "Okay, we'll leave it there. I think you'll all be happy to know that we're not going to visit that rate, that trip again."

Okay, but you didn't ask so many questions about it, still. There were so many questions to be had, Andy, who failed on this front. Why are you asking about potatoes, Alan? So now they're setting up the next shot because Kira Karen is coming out, don't, don't, don't, don't.

And just I was like, "Wow, I watched the special with Karen, not, you were very tough

On her, and I think that was great, duh, and Karen's walking to the stage.

Adam has done something, I think, to her upper mouth, where she's, thank you."

It's like, "Overbiting or something, also I'm just going to say it now is Karen Drunk."

I think it's probably, I don't know, it's supposed to ask that if somebody comes out

as sober, but she hasn't really, she's still refusing to say alcoholic, and I'm not sure what's going on if we have a little, I don't know, it's kind of talking. I don't know, I'm unsure if it's the lip or the alcohol or the pill or pills or what it doesn't. It sums off.

I don't know if she got new teeth, she definitely got some new fillers or something, it's like she got an awning installed in her lips, it's like, you know, that would be surely at night where it's like attached, it's like attached to the side of her house and your press button, it comes out very slowly and the elderly who are all drinking lemonade or like shade, and I feel like she got that in her lips, but it was newly installed.

It's now a host. It's now a host. It's now a host. Now a host. It's now a host.

It's now a host. I feel like a technician still needs to come out and make some minor adjustments, because she just wasn't able to talk right, she's like, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm like, it's wonderful, it's like her words were like getting messed up, and we see her talking just a few months ago with Andy in those flashbacks and she sounds perfectly fine,

and her lips are also smaller, but she just hasn't quite figured out how to say her, get

her fricatives out properly, um, what's their name out?

It's like a, or a sound, I believe, I wish it was like a fricative, like a friend of friend of fricare. If we're not talking about Brenda Blethin, it's got to be Brenda fricare. There's going to be a blend on this every damn time. Um, uh, for a good answer, classic incidents per, uh, produced by forcing breath through a narrow

channel in the vocal tract, creating a continuous audible friction. For example, a sound or a sound or a sound, uh, so that's something you all should know. Now, learn what you look fricatives, why was there a pin drop for the fricatives? So they're talking about how Karen was really owning it in her interview and Andy's like, yeah, she owned stuff and say she goes, the legal seafood of it all, so Karen comes

to ask like, hello, hello, people, you're welcome, you're out, she's just autographing the air. She has a really big shoulder kind of poof or wave or something and it's like getting her way of seeing Andy, which is distracting because the entire interview, she's like trying to pat it down while the rest of the time for the right now.

Hold on, I've put down this fabric wall for a second. Right, lift us, it's great to be here, we're going, we're all ready to be happy I'm back, I'm all ready for the room. Well, I was going to ask the ladies how it feels to have the grand end back, but you've

mentioned that you wanted to shed that moniker, are you still the grand dumb?

She's like, well, let's be very clear, I never needed the grand down, but I am grateful

for a grand down and people have bestowed it upon me and I've tried to set it, but it's not working. So I give the people what they want, that moment of humility is gone, I'm now the grand down again. It's like wow, that took you one week after your interview to be like, wow, I'm humble

now and I never need to be the grand down again. She's like, yep, I'm back. Yes, I'm keeping it. And I also love that they showed this clip from 2017, we're camera looked very different and she was talking about how she had moved out of Potomac too, this is when she moved

to probably great falls or wherever it was in Virginia and as she's like, well, you're not going to be the grand down of Potomac anymore, she was, let's go up in here and people bestowed that upon me and I graciously accepted that until I handed off, it's no one's to have.

That she was saying like, oh, well, I was never kind of about being grand down, and they

showed this clip of her being like, it's mine and I'm keeping it. So Andy's like, ladies, how does it feel to have Karen back out here? And she's like, I'm super excited, that's great to have my favorite punching bag back. I just told her, I was like, I don't like doing reunions without her, so she said, I'm here or actually, I believe she said, I'm fear, I'm fear, but I think she meant I'm here,

I'm here. I can't really tell with that lip. Well, I did not feel like that, and I am here though, and I was about to sit on your lap. What do you think of that? Has someone been sitting in my seat?

I was going to sit on your lap, that was a plan, not right, that was still got it, still got it, ladies. How does it feel?

Karen, actually, it's amazing, it's just like old times, I'm only saying that...

like looking at old and times, wow, look at her, she's just like old times, and she is the times that are old.

It's like, it's like when you see those movies about the old West, that's Karen.

Wendy, well, I've not seen her, and I'm just happy to see her on the other side of this. Oh, thank you. Thank you very much, Randy, check, yeah, fine, fine, you got that one.

So who are you seeing here for the first time, so no, I actually have a wonderful pleasure

of meeting the rookie, he's great energy, ladies, and when I say I start going off the way the rails sometimes, and my heart went out to them, I wish I could have picked up the phone, and the told you to tell them to fuck themselves sometimes, but, you know, let it go, but just that it would have been like, okay, next from your right-door, what, put your handle it, your handle it very well, and you also haven't seen Monique in some time, she's like,

I have not, I have not, but if I look maybe at a phone, I'm laughing at a phone, I'm laughing at a phone. Monique's like, thank you, you did too, so, and like, well, who has been the most supportive of this group? Just have a surprise for her, you know, she did something that really made me smile about seeing

me, and you mean not some of my mailbox, I got them, I have them, little facts, messages, which is my love language, I said you did much to say, well, I'm told that you watched this season, what was your reaction when you heard Josel say she was hoping that you would be in an elderly wing of the jail, so shady, I was cracking up and we see the clip of Josel saying, I want her to be secure, I want her to be like, here, here's

an elderly section now, and actually being like, yeah, like, that AARP of the jail, so like, Karen's like, well, I know I know that, okay, well, you and Stacey ended on not a great note, Karen, Karen starts looking for Stacey, she's sitting right next to Stacey, and she starts looking for Stacey, she's looking all the way down, I was like, wait, Stacey, what are you saying for me, I'm sitting right next to you, like, oh, wow, did

you like, and this, this sees some Stacey, because there's no shade, that's a question, so, what was I lying about, well, last year was about the boyfriend, that was not your boyfriend, right, that's you, you're not dating Chris, but I here, you might be dating Chris, that's true, are you really coming after someone for lying, Karen, you, Karen,

come on, this is like, that's not true at all, where do you stand today, well, I think it's

clear where we stand, my goodness, I don't know what was that, she says she's actually on the set, you don't know what she's standing. Honestly, this line of questioning shouldn't have find where we stand, I'm for no beginning, but I cannot take glass, she want to send me young lady. Well, I would love for you to give me that opportunity,

well, you've got it, but please don't lie, because, you know, I know, I always know, and

I'm the one that lives in Potomac, by the way, she goes, okay, you live in Potomac, it's so caring, Karen is so caring. And by the way, ladies, I'm the only one who actually lives in Potomac, thank you for having me, I know. So, well, where are we? So it's been four months since you were released, how was your sobriety journey been going, she goes, absolutely one of our time in recovery for life on all levels and I'm at peace, I'm at peace and a

very much at peace, I'm on peace on the rocks with a splash, I'd be feel about that. It's about real. I just want to revisit something, Karen, you are not completely comfortable calling yourself an alcoholic, so is it part of being an addict, owning that, and she's like, well, I'm still not alcohol, but you know, it's a personal choice, Andy, it's how I identify, I've learned that in 2026, we respect how people identify. You know, I met a girl in prison who

called herself a unicorn, and we just went with it, Andy, you know, it's called respecting people's identities, and I'm an alcoholic, and I would appreciate it if we all threw me a parade and celebrated me coming out of the closet, thank you very much, I'm Karen Hugo, I'm not an alcoholic,

thank you. Here's what I am, Andy, I'm an addict, I'm addicted to WiFi and Siri County,

it's so silly, that's what I am, apologies everyone. It's Andy is like, but isn't kind of being an

addict owning this? Well, I own everything about it, and there's also a choice that you make that which involves you to say that I'm a woman who without chose to live in complete sobriety the rest of my life, and I'm going to be in recovery, and I think that says it all. Well, it says almost everything except for one word that starts with A and N's with that. Oh, yes, haspick, I enjoy it,

A delicious dessert, gelatin, who knew?

confidage when you came out and everyone shared for you, that was amazing, you know,

there are still a chorus of people saying that you put people's lives at risk,

and they're asking whether or not you should be given a platform. What is your reaction?

Well, Andy, first of all, I would hope they would consider that facing your addiction, which right now has no name, though is a bravest step, and people have a right to their opinions, but I have a right to thrive and not say the alphabet backwards, just because someone wants to fuck with me, after I've taken a little stroll down the street to have cocktail. I love when she said I have a right to thrive. Drinking thrive, it's actually legal. So I got a G U T, Andy,

driving under the thriving. It's called a gut instinct, but that's the reason. So Josel is like gathering to do something that was driving while thriving, Andy, thank you, very guilty, guilty, guilty on that one. Arriving live, don't drink and thrive. So Josel says, Josel says, Caring did something that was bad. She started her time for it, and the other thing she did that was bad, whatever fillers she put in her upper lip. She sounds like she is choking on a

chocolate bar. Well, I would like to point out to everyone. I've now selling t-shirts that say, Matada, mothers against thriving, driving. Thank you very much. I'll be here all week. So we are so wrong. We are so bad. We should not be making jokes about these very

important slogans. This is like literally life-saving slogans and organizations, and we're like,

there's a pun. But when she said, like, I, she said, I have a right to thrive and response,

and I just, I thought that was like, I thought that was an amazing phrase. I have a right to thrive.

So now Monique is like, oh my god, you know, Caring, you know, she dropped her walls and she talks about how Caring's parents passed, and she really dropped her walls, and, you know, now she's doing the work, and she's so proud of her and Caring's like, oh god, there you don't make me cry. Do not make me cry. And Andy's like, well, Caring, I want to thank you for being so candid today, and the evening that I met you at your home, and I'd also like to

thank you for the tab that you served me that night. I haven't had one of those in a very long time. How's your son doing, by the way, speaking of that night? He hasn't responded to any of my text messages. It's kind of wondering if he'd like to hang out. Apparently he is not up, which is a phone number for Sharice's son. Do you think, I don't know, they'd be up for maybe all three of us hang out, I don't know, see where the night takes us. Just exploring each other's bodies.

Just seeing, exploring one of them. So, Andy's like, this group of women said that you weren't denial about a whole bunch of things, and one of the headlines of our conversation was you were repeatedly saying, I was in denial. Oh, absolutely. I was in denial. I don't deny that because I don't deny things that's a person who's not in denial, Andy. Thank you. Tonight, I'm just going to be in the middle of Virginia, you know? So, Andy's like, well, did that, did that resonate with

you, actually, a hundred percent? Okay, glad to hear that. It was an important hour of television. It was a very, very important hour of television. And I would like to think myself for being so hard to do. You're well, I'd like to pray, buddy. I'd like to also thank Jane Bali for asking the hard-hitting questions. Ah, that was me. I'm not Jane Bali. All right. Andy's like, well, you also corroborated ashes, Lee will see food storey, which sounded like total bullshit last year,

but somehow that is the one thing that was verified. Just like, yes, yes, yes, yes, and then

God, she finally got one of our stories right about me, but I did it. I would go to Lee will see food.

I'd get drunk. And I'd say, isn't it funny being in a place called legal seafood getting drunk?

I wonder if I'll ever get into a problem. I have a legal problem with getting drunk. Maybe they'll be seafood. A legal seafood legal driving. Why is one legal in one, isn't it? Best to discuss that. Unfortunately, my body has a negative reaction to clam chowder. I've realized, and it makes me drive like I'm drunk, but luckily, it's not the alcohol, it's just the chowder. The very specific issue. Well, you didn't say that Wendy was like about what she said. And we see a clip of the last

reunion Wendy saying that she went to a place and they told her Karen goes every day and gets drunk. And then a clip from Karen's interview saying she doesn't know what Wendy's talking about. Do you think that Wendy got that gossip from Ashley and just made it her own, because she didn't think

Ashley was going to say anything or what?

actually believe that I believe a random person was like like oh my god Wendy, I love you on the show

that it can I say something like it's so sad with what happened to Karen, but you know what like

I used to see what this one barge, it always gets drunk all the time and I'm just happy

she's just getting the help it she needs. You know people will sometimes say crazy things. That's probably the same person. It's probably the same legal seafood bartender. He's just on every once in public transportation. Everywhere you go, he's just waiting for a real house so I've food for telemic to come on. Hey, I know Karen, that's your throat call every fucking day. You're right, you sell a long enough. You know, eventually someone from Beethoven needs to get to New

York City. Find them. Yes, I'm a bad girl, telling gossip about leak, I'll see you food. What I'm actually wondering, I don't believe anyone is talking to you about me. Well, you can believe whatever you want. Well, you can produce them. Where are they? Where are they? Where are they? So then Wendy is like, well, the talk about now the portrayal, you know, when when Karen was like said like, I want to thank everyone. I want to thank Giselle. I want to thank Ashley. I

want to thank Andy. Go in, I'd like to thank Graff Services and I'd like to thank whoever thought the ceiling fan at the bank because it gets hot in there when you wait to make your deposits. Thank you, thank you for making my life better before I go to jail. Well, you can give your followers to whomever you choose, but I would not be being truthful if to myself. I didn't say, oh,

that felt stinky. I felt a sting for that. Well, I think it's important to deal in reality,

even though we're on a show. Let me honest, you and I became distant because I feel betrayed by you. And I just felt like you betrayed me when you went over to Stacey. And then we'll see a flashback.

Stacey saying, Karen said that Wendy was self-absorbed wasn't a girls girl and she would never be my

friend. And Karen's like, I've never said that to you. Do you believe this shit Wendy and Wendy saying, oh, you're going to have to side-eye for a minute. That's for sure. And so we come back and Wendy's like the betrayal was for you because I will remember very specifically when we sat down to pick out diningware for my 40th birthday party and you reference my mother as a witch. Oh, this shrine fight comes back. Congratulations, you've reached the end of part one of a
