00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, welcome to Pink Shade. It is Thursday, so

00:00:19,839 --> 00:00:23,359
I've got an expert today. His name is Jason Zephyr.

a Bravo expert.

7
00:00:31,399 --> 00:00:36,679
Speaker 2: I would say, yes, definitely. I love Bravo. Real Housewives

8
00:00:36,679 --> 00:00:38,920
of New York City is not only one of my

9
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:43,759
favorite Bravo shows, are my favorite housewife entry into the franchise,

10
00:00:43,799 --> 00:00:46,159
but it's one of my favorite all time shows. It's

11
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,240
a comfort watch if I'm ever homesick, I am putting

12
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,280
on like season six of Real Housewives of New York.

13
00:00:54,359 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: Do you live in New York?

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,359
Speaker 2: I do live in New York. I've been here for

15
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:58,479
like twenty years.

16
00:00:58,679 --> 00:01:02,359
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay. Now you are also a writer.

17
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 2: I am a writer.

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,439
Speaker 1: Yes, You've written a really good book called Zombies of

19
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,519
the Upper east Side. Okay, tell me about this book

20
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:16,120
because it's like a campy It's like a take on

21
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,560
these like Upper east Side like fancy ladies, but then

22
00:01:18,599 --> 00:01:20,280
there's like a zombie apocalypse.

23
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:25,239
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it's it's a horror comedy. It's definitely campy

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,719
in all the best ways. I really lean into that. Yeah,

25
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,200
it's a it's about an Upper east Side lady. Her

26
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,200
name is Charmaine Starling. She's kind of a typical kind

27
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,079
of society lady. She married into a lot of money,

28
00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:43,760
but she's going through divorce. Her husband cheated on her.

29
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,040
He's like he has separated. He's holed up in a

30
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,480
suite of rooms at the Carl Hotel with his mistress.

31
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:55,000
With his mistress, and so they're going through a divorce.

32
00:01:55,599 --> 00:01:57,560
You know, she didn't have any money in the beginning,

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,560
so it was all him and his family land. So

34
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,959
now they're trying to make sure that she doesn't leave

35
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,840
the marriage with anything. So she also has like that

36
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,080
stink on her of she's gonna be broke. So yes,

37
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:12,879
So all the Upper east Side lady, she's a little

38
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,599
bit of a priya. Now, Now, if that wasn't bad enough,

39
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,680
if she wasn't already just stressed out about not, you know,

40
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,960
leaving her marriage with nothing and maybe going back to Yonkers,

41
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,080
which is where she was originally from, God forbid, If

42
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,360
that wasn't bad enough, the Upper East side is painted

43
00:02:30,479 --> 00:02:33,800
as a place where all kinds of weird stuff can happen,

44
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,719
because it is a little bit of a weird place.

45
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,080
I think it has the highest propensity or or population

46
00:02:40,199 --> 00:02:43,400
of billionaires per capitist square mile than anywhere else in

47
00:02:43,439 --> 00:02:46,159
the world, so it's a very Yeah, so it's a

48
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,000
very There's also like Park Avenue is like Billionaires Row,

49
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,319
so it's like the highest number of billionaires to exist

50
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:58,319
anywhere in the world and like such a small place. Yeah.

51
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:01,879
So if all that wasn't bad enough, there's some weird

52
00:03:01,879 --> 00:03:04,360
things going on in the background. In the first half

53
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,319
of the book, people are getting sick, there's like a

54
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:12,000
another sort of illness going on, bodies are missing from

55
00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:14,240
the morgue, and then like in the middle of it,

56
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:17,479
she wakes up and it's a full on zombie apocalypse.

57
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,639
So it's kind of funny watching these kinds of ladies

58
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,439
kind of like fight against you know, the zombies, and

59
00:03:24,439 --> 00:03:26,360
they're a little bit scrappier than you would think.

60
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: Well, isn't that always the case with our housewives?

61
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 2: Right? Yes?

62
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, And there's a character in the book whose name

63
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,240
is oddly enough, Margot Pain, not to be confused with

64
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:41,879
Mary Pain. But as I read the book, I was like, no,

65
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,120
wait a minute, I don't want my name to be

66
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:48,560
so closely associated with this guta rat lady. Ah.

67
00:03:48,599 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: Well, the interesting thing about that character in particular, like

68
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:56,560
she is her. So her name is Margot Pain. She

69
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,120
was married to a doctor, she divorced. She's sort of

70
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:05,479
of like a warning to what could happen to Charmaine.

71
00:04:05,919 --> 00:04:08,840
Now what's interesting about that character they called they call

72
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,680
her the Upper Upper east Side spit Her, And that's

73
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:15,080
based on a real person. There was a real person

74
00:04:15,199 --> 00:04:18,399
on the Upper east Side who was with her shopping carts.

75
00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:22,439
She was unhoused individual, and they ended up finding and

76
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:27,079
she would like spit on children or you know, sort

77
00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:30,800
of like young upstarts. She was not a happy lady. Wow.

78
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,800
And then they ended up finding out that she, you know,

79
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:35,800
she was divorced and she had had a lot of

80
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,879
money at one point. So I sort of, you know,

81
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,079
it's a minor character in the story. But I when

82
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,600
I was writing the book, I read and I watched

83
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,600
everything to do with the Upper east Side. So I

84
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:50,839
tried to absorb as much as I could. And I

85
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,079
had heard that story and I just wanted to incorporate

86
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,399
it in some way into the book.

87
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: Okay. Well, it unfortunately is very close to my name,

88
00:04:58,879 --> 00:05:00,920
but that's okay. You didn't know me at the time.

89
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: So and I love I love the name Pain too,

90
00:05:05,439 --> 00:05:08,160
you know, because it can mean so many things, and

91
00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:11,000
it can be taken literally not literally, like I I

92
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:12,279
really like it.

93
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: Well, it's a family name and in my family obviously

94
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:19,199
that's why I've got it. But you know, there's there's

95
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,079
Payne Stewart, There's uh it was a famous golfer. There's

96
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,279
Payne Lindsay who's a famous podcaster. And I have a

97
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:28,759
nephew that said his next child he wants to send

98
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,959
the child Pain as a boy. And I was like,

99
00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:32,759
I'm here to tell you it's going.

100
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 2: To be rough.

101
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, rough, it'll be rough to have that name, but

102
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,399
go go for it, go for it.

103
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

104
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: Okay. Now you have got a very popular Instagram. I'm

105
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,959
always obsessed with people who get like a huge following

106
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,519
on Instagram because I'm out here, like hour myself out

107
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:48,360
for every follower.

108
00:05:48,959 --> 00:05:51,399
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I'm proud. I feel like I'm in that

109
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,399
in that sort of box. Now because a lot of

110
00:05:54,399 --> 00:05:57,519
things have changed over the last few months, when they

111
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,040
had that big purge, I lost I don't know a

112
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:03,439
crazy amount, but like a thousand followers, and my growth

113
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:05,680
sort of stopped, and it stopped right when I was

114
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,319
launching the book. So that wasn't That wasn't great, but

115
00:06:09,399 --> 00:06:12,560
it's okay. I still have a lot of followers. I

116
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,639
got those because I do things like right now, I'm

117
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,399
doing one hundred days of Buffy because I love Buffy

118
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:23,480
Vampire Slayer and I was devastated when Hulu canceled the reboot. Yeah,

119
00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:27,120
so I do things like that. I've had like Martha

120
00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:30,040
Mondays where I do some sort of post about Martha

121
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,399
Stewart because I love her, funny Lady Friday because I

122
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:37,360
love funny women. They're probably the people that have inspired

123
00:06:37,399 --> 00:06:40,959
me the most of anybody. Yeah, so things like that,

124
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:46,399
And oh also, I think it's and I just literally

125
00:06:46,519 --> 00:06:48,920
saw this yesterday, so it's like fresh in my mind.

126
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,240
Every so often, somebody pops up and I'm like, wait,

127
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,680
they follow me. So yesterday it was Wendy McClendon Covey

128
00:06:56,759 --> 00:07:00,519
follows me. I'm like, what when did that happen? I

129
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,879
love her, I love her so much.

130
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:10,759
Speaker 1: I love her. Yeah, that's cool. Now. Sonia Morgan commented

131
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:13,079
on your book does she follow you?

132
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 2: She does not follow me. Oddly enough, not many of

133
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,279
the New York Housewives follow me. I think only Jules Wainstein,

134
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:25,360
who was on one season, but yeah, I really liked her.

135
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:30,279
She follows me, but none of the other og rony women,

136
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:34,480
which is a little disappointing because I love them so much.

137
00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:37,759
I'm so excited for the Golden Life coming out. I

138
00:07:37,839 --> 00:07:42,560
love them so much that they may have worked their

139
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,879
way into my book.

140
00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: You have to read it to find out.

141
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: I guess yes, you will have to read it to

142
00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:53,000
find out. But I find it very interesting that Sonia Morgan,

143
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,000
who doesn't follow me, commented on my book post when

144
00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,319
I announced the book, saying congratulations. She also liked bunch

145
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:03,480
of other posts. But I find it very interesting because

146
00:08:03,519 --> 00:08:06,439
there may be a character in my book whose name

147
00:08:06,519 --> 00:08:10,519
is Sylvia, and she might live on the Upper east Side,

148
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,040
and she might live in a crumbling townhouse. She might

149
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:21,319
also be allegedly broke. She may have a daughter, and

150
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:24,560
she may be divorced from a very old man who

151
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,000
left her for her friends.

152
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,959
Speaker 1: Does she have a storage unit full of old birkins?

153
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,759
Speaker 2: She sold them already. Okay, she doesn't have a bag

154
00:08:35,799 --> 00:08:42,919
to her name? Does she her basement? You don't want

155
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:43,399
to go in the.

156
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: Basement, No Crisco, no basics. Oh so funny. Okay, Now,

157
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,320
Sony Morgan, Now let's talk about the I keep calling

158
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,440
it the Golden Years. Is it called the Golden Life?

159
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: The Golden the Golden Life? Right?

160
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: Okay? The New Roney spin off on each Yeah, yeah, okay,

161
00:09:03,399 --> 00:09:07,440
the Golden Life, like the well yes, but first of all,

162
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:10,080
like when is it coming? Because now they're adding like

163
00:09:10,279 --> 00:09:12,360
Margaret and some other people which I love in kandas

164
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,120
push and all like great, but yeah, I assume they're

165
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:17,639
coming in as like a friend of like, uh, they're

166
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,559
just like letting us know that they're coming in as

167
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,320
like side characters to visit. But what are we getting

168
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:22,759
this show?

169
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 2: Okay? So, from what I've read and from what I understand,

170
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,720
filming went really well. So he wanted to add some

171
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,919
more episodes, and it was summer in the Hampton's and

172
00:09:34,159 --> 00:09:37,080
Ramona and Luann are already there, so then they had

173
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,720
the opportunity to add Margaret Joseph's I guess she had

174
00:09:40,759 --> 00:09:44,639
originally been in talks about being on the show, but

175
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:49,720
she was on some other show on Amazon that's coming out. Yeah,

176
00:09:49,759 --> 00:09:51,879
so I guess she couldn't have been in it. Then

177
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,519
I think she actually makes sense. I wasn't like a

178
00:09:55,759 --> 00:09:58,919
huge fan of her in New Jersey, but she has,

179
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,840
you know, established relationships with Ramona and with leu Anne,

180
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:05,240
and so I think and Durinda, and so I think

181
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:08,679
that makes sense. I'm totally okay with that. Candice Bush Now,

182
00:10:08,799 --> 00:10:12,200
I love Sex and the City was also an inspiration

183
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,879
to the book because the early seasons are very centered

184
00:10:15,919 --> 00:10:18,480
on the Upper east Side. I mean, they're Part two

185
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:20,879
of my book is called Scourge in the City, so

186
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,360
you know, there are definitely references to that as well.

187
00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:27,519
So I'm excited to see her. So, from what I understand,

188
00:10:28,399 --> 00:10:30,480
filming went really well, so they wanted to add some

189
00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:33,279
more episodes during the summer, but I think we're getting

190
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,039
it in the fall. I think it's a really quick turnaround.

191
00:10:36,759 --> 00:10:38,720
Maybe there will be a little bit of a break

192
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,240
so for editing, but I'm pretty sure we're getting this

193
00:10:42,279 --> 00:10:42,799
in the fall.

194
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: I would imagine they don't want to go up against

195
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:47,879
Ultimate Girls' Trip because that's a little bit of the

196
00:10:47,919 --> 00:10:51,200
same audience, or you know, and maybe they want to

197
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,799
wait till the new Roney season comes out and give

198
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,600
it a minute and you know, piggyback off of that.

199
00:10:56,759 --> 00:10:59,159
Speaker 2: Really Yeah, and I think I think it's a good

200
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:01,559
time for it to come out regardless. And I don't

201
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,600
think Ultimate Girls Trip. I think that comes out like

202
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,200
August tenth or something like that, And there probably won't

203
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,639
be a lot of episodes. If it goes by previous seasons,

204
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,279
it'll probably be what six episodes something like that.

205
00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, I was going to say eight.

206
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,559
I can't remember, though. Those are quick seasons. And for

207
00:11:21,919 --> 00:11:24,000
you know, everybody says that it'll be great, and I

208
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,159
think everybody else because we'll watch anything on Bravo. Really,

209
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:29,200
the problem is going to be sort of to get

210
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,679
that audience to flip the channel over to E.

211
00:11:32,279 --> 00:11:36,399
Speaker 2: I think there is. I mean people, there's definitely buzz

212
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,360
about it. People are excited to see it. People wanted

213
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,039
the Ogs to come back to Bravo for whatever reason.

214
00:11:44,159 --> 00:11:47,159
I did too. I freaking love that show. So I

215
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,759
don't I don't know, I don't know why Bravo didn't

216
00:11:49,799 --> 00:11:52,279
do it. What do you think about that?

217
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: Well, my question for you is I'm sure you've seen

218
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,519
the new Rony trailer for the new season with you know,

219
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,679
we've got Si, We've got Jessel, we've got Carol Radziwell

220
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,720
that's it, right, Si and Jessel and Aaron, and then

221
00:12:08,759 --> 00:12:12,159
we have some new people and Carol Radswell. I listen.

222
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,480
I've been fooled by a trailer before where I've been like,

223
00:12:14,519 --> 00:12:16,399
this is gonna be the best thing, and then it sucks.

224
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,840
But I thought the trailer looked amazing.

225
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,759
Speaker 2: I think the trailer looked amazing too. I thought it

226
00:12:21,799 --> 00:12:24,919
looked really good. I think I did not like the

227
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,879
last two seasons. I watched them, so it wasn't completely

228
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,240
you know, biased, but I I did watch them. The

229
00:12:34,399 --> 00:12:38,120
last season was really kind of dark and a you know,

230
00:12:38,879 --> 00:12:42,159
it's not I'm actually a little bit surprised that it

231
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:46,000
even survived, that's to tell you the truth. But yeah,

232
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,639
I think the trailer looks really good. I'm interested in

233
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,000
seeing what happens. It seems like they may have been

234
00:12:53,039 --> 00:12:56,279
trying to be too much like the old Ronian or

235
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,120
and the two seasons that they had. It does seem

236
00:12:59,159 --> 00:13:02,039
like maybe their brand off a little bit more, which

237
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,879
is sort of ironic because Carol Radziwell is joining, but

238
00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:09,559
I'm interested in seeing her on the show. I always

239
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:14,120
liked her. We do see, we'll see, and then sighs

240
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,600
going crazy about the Jeffrey absteeing things, And yeah, I

241
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,039
don't think she. I don't think Carol expected that going

242
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:21,799
into the show.

243
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: No, I didn't expect she. She thinks she'd be called

244
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,600
out on the street for that. And Si, of course,

245
00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:30,679
just like they announced she's getting a divorce, you know,

246
00:13:30,759 --> 00:13:33,000
right as they were filling. So we always love a

247
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:36,960
divorce during one of our Housewives seasons. It makes it spicy, yeah.

248
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,759
Speaker 2: For sure, because she's like angry and she's you know,

249
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,840
Carol's gonna get it. It looks like.

250
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: Y'all by now. I hope you've seen my ad on

251
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,399
Instagram for my perfectly Snug smarttopper for my mattress. Was

252
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,000
it cringey?

253
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 2: Yes?

254
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: Did it get the pointer cross? Yes, you guys, The

255
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,320
perfectly Snug is a mattress pad that cools you why

you sleep. It is a dream for us ladies of

257
00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:02,720
a certain age. And let's just say it men apausal

00:14:02,799 --> 00:14:05,480
women who sleep hot. Okay, but you know my husband

also sleeps hot and he loves it too. The perfectly

260

Snug is an air based mattress topper that blows air

on you. It's not water based. I used to have

262
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,799
a chili sleep. It was so gross because you always

263
00:14:15,799 --> 00:14:18,279
had to clean it out. So I'm thrilled with this

264
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,799

option like if it's you know, the wintertime. You can

00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,799

00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:20,399
this white linen popover shirt. I'm wearing it right this minute.

282
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,840
I wore it for all my recordings this week. It

283
00:15:22,879 --> 00:15:25,519
is so easy to throw on, and I have some

284
00:15:25,559 --> 00:15:28,440
white linen shorts to go with it. It's an adorable set.

285
00:15:28,639 --> 00:15:31,960
It's my new thing. You know. They have one hundred

286
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,279
percent European linen, their pants dressed as tops. These are

287
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,679
the pieces that you reach for all summer, and they

288
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,519
started just thirty two dollars. You know, they have amazing

289
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,519
soft denim, they have organic cotton sweaters, and of course

290
00:15:43,559 --> 00:15:47,320
they have that gorgeous silk and Mongolian cashmir Did you

291
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,080
guys also know they have jewelry? Did you know they

292
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,720
have maternity clothes? Did you know they have luggage? And

293
00:15:54,159 --> 00:15:57,600

294
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,320

305
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,559
speaking of divorce, you know Salt Lake City, we've got

306
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,600
their either filming or have wrapped, and I imagine we're

307
00:16:46,639 --> 00:16:48,879
going to be because they usually launch that in the winter.

308
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,879
I feel like to go with the Salt Lakes theme. Yeah,

309
00:16:52,919 --> 00:16:55,159
but we've got three divorces going on there. We've got

310
00:16:55,679 --> 00:17:00,320
Bronwyn and Whitney and Justin are separated, and now we've

311
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:05,200
got the Angie k separation. The Angik just really like

312
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,119
that took me down. I was upsetting.

313
00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, except when I watched the last season when they

314
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,920
did have scenes together with their child. Like, I think

315
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,279
you can see that there's a disconnect. I think it

316
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,079
probably became more of a friendship rather than like a

317
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:25,480
romantic relationship. Okay, interesting, that's kind of like I thought.

318
00:17:25,519 --> 00:17:29,279
I I vividly sort of remember thinking that when I

319
00:17:29,319 --> 00:17:31,640
would watch those scenes, I was like, oh, there's not

320
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,759
a lot of like there's no heat left.

321
00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: It seems I see what you're saying. That they seemed

322
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,240
more like because they are like business partners and the

323
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:42,000
radio child together, and I think, you know, when they

324
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,880
I think this happens a lot when you have a

325
00:17:45,079 --> 00:17:48,519
new franchise starting that. I think the husbands are always

326
00:17:48,519 --> 00:17:53,319
pretty stunned when focus turns on them, like like you know,

327
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,000
like wait, why why is anybody asking what I'm doing?

328
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,880
You know, because I definitely than Seth. It definitely happened

329
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,000
bron went and Todd, and of course Todd did not

330
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:03,519
like that.

331
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 2: Oh no, he was terrible.

332
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: So Sean, I think, was very stunned to find that

333
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,400
people were now chatting about his sexuality and this, that

334
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,880
and the other. So that wasn't great for their marriage.

335
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: Probably no, it probably yeah, yeah, for sure, definitely not good.

336
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 1: Mary Cosby susband too, just it was like nope, I'm out.

337
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,680
I live in Florida. Now fuck this.

338
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,799
Speaker 2: There's like, no, there's only Lisa's husband, Lisa's husband and

339
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,279
Meredith's susband. They're the only They're the last one standing.

340
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: What did you think about Lisa's post with her and

341
00:18:39,599 --> 00:18:42,680
John Barlow and like matching jeans and white T shirts

342
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,759
with their Veta tequila in their hand, being like still

343
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:45,599
standing strong.

344
00:18:46,519 --> 00:18:50,279
Speaker 2: I thought it was kind of bitchy, but like in

345
00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:54,759
the best possible way. Clearly she must not be on

346
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,720
good terms with Angie k right now, because that's rubbing

347
00:18:58,759 --> 00:19:01,640
it in a little bit. But I wouldn't expect anything

348
00:19:01,759 --> 00:19:03,640
less from her. But I still love her.

349
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: I love her too. I thought it was not nice. No,

350
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,839
you definitely nice, sort of like haha, I'm still married

351
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,160
and you're not. I mean, I don't know, but I

352
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:17,640
was very sad about that. But it's going to be

353
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:18,359
a great season.

354
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. I like Salt Lake. I think it's interesting.

355
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,599
I think they still have a lot of story left

356
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,200
in them. Oh yeah, I'm curious what this new season

357
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,559
is going to be like because it starts filming like

358
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:41,000
literally right after Mary's Son past. Yeah, it's that's.

359
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: That's a lot. Yeah, it is going to be a

360
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,880
speaking of dark my god. Yeah, So we've got Salt Lake.

361
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,559
So are you watching oc? I mean, are you watching

362
00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:55,799
it or you hate watching it? Are you like me?

363
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,839
I'm just like I'll watch anything they give me. So

364
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:58,799
I'm just watching it.

365
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,039
Speaker 2: I'm watching it. Oc is not a show that I've

366
00:20:03,079 --> 00:20:05,799
watched from the very beginning. I don't even think I

367
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,680
found it until COVID when I was looking for other

368
00:20:08,759 --> 00:20:12,880
things to watch. I tried to watch the early seasons

369
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,079
and I just couldn't because like the production value is

370
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,480
like terrible, and it's just it's so hard to watch.

371
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,440
But I did go back and I watched up until

372
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,400
when Shannon's first season. So there's a lot of like

373
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,680
criticism about Shannon, but I've always found Shannon to be

374
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:34,599
a really interesting character. Yeah, so I'm watching it. Is

375
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,799
it like the best show ever? No, I mean it's not,

376
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,640
but I mean I like it. It's I'm interested in it.

377
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,160
I'm glad that Vicky's back. I do find her to

378
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,960
be like just an interesting individualist, like a writer who

379
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,799
looks at things like character wise. I think she's an

380
00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:58,079
interesting character. I don't know that she's somebody that I

381
00:20:58,079 --> 00:21:01,039
would like in real life, but I like watching her.

382
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,279
Speaker 1: That's interesting because a lot of people have also been like,

383
00:21:04,319 --> 00:21:06,480
we didn't need it. Why is Vicky back? I was like,

384
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,359
it's the twentieth season. They had to bring it back.

385
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,200
It was a great step and it works and she's delivering,

386
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,240
you know, and you know, lover hate Vicky and people

387
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,119
get mad at me when I say this. She is

388
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,279
the og of the OC and people will be like, no,

389
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,200
Gina was cast first. I don't care. Vicky's the one

390
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,680
that's been on the longest, you know.

391
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's like nostalgics. I have her back on.

392
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,920
She's literally the og of all of them, like she

393
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,839
she started this, so yeah, I think it was only

394
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:37,920
fair to have her back on.

395
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: I completely agree. Did you have did you have opinions on?

396
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,599
People had a lot of strong opinions about Gina Keo

397
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,279
doing a GoFundMe for her health care. I mean, in

398
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:50,640
my mind, I'm like, if she doesn't have the money

399
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,480
to pay for her healthcare, I don't think there's any

400
00:21:52,519 --> 00:21:54,440
problem with it. That's where we are in this country.

401
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,920
But people are like, no, it's tone deaf because they

402
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,359
went on a vacation to Tahiti. And I'm like, well,

403
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:00,960
two things can be true, you know.

404
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's it's complicated. We don't know the

405
00:22:05,599 --> 00:22:11,680
details of you know, her finances. Would I personally start

406
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:16,200
to go find me, no, but you know, to each

407
00:22:16,279 --> 00:22:20,920
their own. Apparently she can't work now, she's a real

408
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,880
stag agent. She can't talk like she had part of

409
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,720
her tongue removes. So this is I don't know what

410
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:31,519
I would actually do in a situation like that. Yeah, so,

411
00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:34,440
I mean I don't falter in it at all. Like

412
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,680
I hope she has a you know, speedy recovery and

413
00:22:38,599 --> 00:22:40,359
only good thoughts towards her.

414
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,319
Speaker 1: God bless, it's terrible. Okay, speaking of things that are

415
00:22:45,559 --> 00:22:48,960
dark and God bless and terrible, I am obsessed with

416
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,799
The Valley. I love the Valley. I love everything about

417
00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:55,119
The Valley. I am upset to hear rumors that it's

418
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,039
going to be canceled. At the very least, they've got

419
00:22:58,039 --> 00:23:01,279
to keep it around for Jack's Day, his ex publicist,

420
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,160
and Michelle Danny doctor Dre. That's that's enough to give

421
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,480
us another season, right there.

422
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:14,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, so The Valley is definitely my hate watch. Okay,

423
00:23:14,599 --> 00:23:18,519
it's but I actually watched a couple of like, rewatched

424
00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:21,599
a couple episodes last night, and I was like, this

425
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,680
is good. Like I can't tell if I like it

426
00:23:24,799 --> 00:23:27,480
or it just like activates me in some weird way.

427
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,160
I think, yes, there's lots of rumors about this being

428
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:37,119
the last season, and I think it'd be fine if

429
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,480
it was the last season, quite frankly, but if it's

430
00:23:39,599 --> 00:23:42,680
not the last season, I think Jackson needs to come back.

431
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,480
I also think all of the men on that show

432
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:51,200
should want Jax back, because when he was on the show,

433
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,240
you didn't see how bad all of them were. Ninety

434
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,079
nine percent of those men are terrible individuals. The only

435
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:00,920
one that I can think of off the top of

436
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,079
my head, and we don't see him very much, but

437
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,640
he seems to be a decent guy and they have

438
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,920
a good relationship, is Janet's husband, Jason. All the other

439
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,960
ones are horrific, horrific individuals. Women should watch this show

440
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:15,880
and be like, I don't think I'm gonna get married,

441
00:24:16,599 --> 00:24:18,799
Like they should all just go live in a commune

442
00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:21,240
and raise their children themselves, because if you were to

443
00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:24,839
look at these men as a sample of what's out there, no,

444
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,119
why would you ever? And Kristin. I feel so bad

445
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,799
for Kristin because she has this little child attached to her,

446
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,079
she's going through postpartum, and Luke is the worst of

447
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,480
all of them. I cannot watch that show and watch

448
00:24:37,559 --> 00:24:41,440
him without it makes me crazy. I am screaming at

449
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,599
the TV like he makes me insane. And they wanted

450
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,680
that child very badly. They wanted that child, and now

451
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,960
that they have it, he's acting like a complete douchebag.

452
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: You think Luke is worse than Danny.

453
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,759
Speaker 2: You know what, It's depends on the week, but they're

454
00:25:02,759 --> 00:25:10,359
both horrible. They're both really really bad. Danny's really bad.

455
00:25:10,599 --> 00:25:15,519
But my opinion of Nina actually or Nia lately has

456
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,880
changed when when I when I originally watched it, like

457
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,920
I thought that she was definitely a lot sweeter in

458
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,480
the beginning, but I'm getting like, like, I feel like

459
00:25:25,559 --> 00:25:29,160
she's pulling the strings a little bit, and I think

460
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,799
she she's she's definitely covering for him in a lot

461
00:25:32,799 --> 00:25:33,359
of ways.

462
00:25:33,519 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: And absolutely, yeah.

463
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 2: She's covering for him in so many ways, and it

464
00:25:38,519 --> 00:25:41,920
makes me worried about her, like what is actually going on?

465
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,279
Speaker 1: Yes, it makes me worried about her too, because you know,

466
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,599
she had a baby and then she had twins and

467
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,279
if that wasn't enough, they were like, let's just let's

468
00:25:53,319 --> 00:25:56,200
just keep it going. I mean, and I understand a

469
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,920
lot of young people were like, well, if we're gonna

470
00:25:57,920 --> 00:25:59,680
have kids. Let's just knock it all out, and they

471
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,960
get terrible for ten years and then you know, and

472
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,799
then we'll be on the other side of it. But

473
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,559
if you don't have a good relationship, I don't know

474
00:26:06,559 --> 00:26:08,039
how you're going to get on the other side of it.

475
00:26:08,079 --> 00:26:12,599
And if your husband is lying constantly about his drinking,

476
00:26:13,519 --> 00:26:17,200
you know, let me tell you. You don't know this about me.

477
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,400
My husband is twelve years sober. So this Nia and

478
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,759
Danny thing is like super triggering for me because his

479
00:26:22,839 --> 00:26:26,039
behavior is so familiar to me, and her behavior is

480
00:26:26,039 --> 00:26:29,920
also familiar to me, the protecting and deflecting and look

481
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,039
over here, don't look over here, you know. But when

482
00:26:33,079 --> 00:26:34,960
Lala called her a thug in a prairie dress, I

483
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,039
was like, now.

484
00:26:36,599 --> 00:26:40,039
Speaker 2: I know, right, Laala, you kind of definitely needed her

485
00:26:40,079 --> 00:26:43,640
to like pop in here and sort of like express

486
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,880
her opinion, because she does sort of say what no

487
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,240
one else is saying. Yes, So when you watch it,

488
00:26:50,559 --> 00:26:53,200
you can see Nia doing that.

489
00:26:54,519 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: She's absolutely protecting him and absolutely when he starts to

490
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,359
spire off, which I know that she just has to

491
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,039
feel sick going into any event knowing he's going to

492
00:27:05,079 --> 00:27:07,640
be drinking. No what it's going to turn into, because

493
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,440
she knows once you get some drinks in him, I

494
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,880
can't control him. I can't get him to you know, one, two,

495
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,599
three eyes on me. She can't get him to focus

496
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,920
because now he's drunk, and now he's mad, and he

497
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,759
hates a la la stands for everything he hates, you know,

498
00:27:24,079 --> 00:27:27,119
like single woman, okaying for sexuality. You know, he just

499
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:28,400
can't stand that.

500
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's terrible. Also, like I know that they are

501
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,920
on him a lot about it, about his drinking, and

502
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,559
I don't drink anymore. I wouldn't say that I was

503
00:27:40,559 --> 00:27:42,720
an alcoholic, but like a year and a half ago

504
00:27:42,839 --> 00:27:45,359
or so, I just realized it didn't work for me anymore.

505
00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:48,079
Made me I felt a little depressed afterwards, no matter

506
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,799
how much I drink. And that might be where he

507
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,799
is too. Maybe he's not a raging alcoholic, but he

508
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,759
has an issue. There's an issue there. Also, he's doing

509
00:27:58,799 --> 00:28:01,599
this on camera. What is he doing when he's not

510
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:02,480
on camera?

511
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: That's exactly the way he speaks to her makes you

512
00:28:06,559 --> 00:28:08,960
think if you're speaking to her knowing that you both

513
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,920
have microphones on, yes, how are you speaking to her

514
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,160
when you take the microphones off that Nanny has seen

515
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:17,000
some shit, you know.

516
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. I also think that she's got some fight in

517
00:28:21,279 --> 00:28:24,160
her too, So I'd like to hear how she talks

518
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,240
when the cameras aren't rolling and when she's not maked up, too,

519
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,799
because I don't think she puts up with nearly as

520
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,240
much as people are thinking that she does, or if

521
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:36,759
she is putting up with it, there's a different side

522
00:28:36,759 --> 00:28:39,240
of her that we have yet to see.

523
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,359
Speaker 1: I think that's right because we have seen it before

524
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,640
when last season they were on the phone and she

525
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,440
was like, let me tell you something. You go home

526
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,359
and do this and then you go you know, and

527
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,119
you're like, yeah, glimpses, yeah, glimpses.

528
00:28:52,279 --> 00:28:55,119
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think there's glimpses of it. Yeah.

529
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: I think that maybe that's why he drinks. I don't know.

530
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:02,240
I'm just kidding. But it's interesting that you think Luke

531
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,480
is worse because a lot of people have such strong

532
00:29:05,559 --> 00:29:08,720
feelings on Luke. And I did actually appreciate this week

533
00:29:08,839 --> 00:29:11,839
when when they were in therapy and she said, I

534
00:29:12,119 --> 00:29:14,119
she said, this will watch what happens. I've told him

535
00:29:14,119 --> 00:29:17,119
when we're in therapy, say it, like, get it out

536
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,839
while we're in therapy. You don't talk to me like

537
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,599
that at home. But for him to say, you know,

538
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,200
I wanted you to have this baby, but then I

539
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,079
had never met pregnant Kristin. But then, but then he's

540
00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:30,680
pushing to have another baby.

541
00:29:31,599 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 2: It's crazy. It doesn't make any sense to me. I

542
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,119
love that scene though, and the therapist in Kristin, I

543
00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:39,960
thought they wanted I thought they were going to like

544
00:29:40,039 --> 00:29:46,839
beat his ass. That therapist like looked at her like what, yeah.

545
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:50,319
Speaker 1: I love the therapists. Yeah whoa said it?

546
00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. So she even had a huge reaction, so that. Yeah,

547
00:29:55,759 --> 00:29:59,519
he's terrible. I feel bad for Kristen because she's like

548
00:29:59,599 --> 00:30:02,720
in it. You know, she's got this small child attached

549
00:30:02,759 --> 00:30:06,200
to her. But I'm curious, you know, where will she

550
00:30:06,359 --> 00:30:08,200
be in five years? You know.

551
00:30:08,839 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm excited for the reunion. I know they just

552
00:30:12,319 --> 00:30:14,839
filmed it obviously, because they did some like looks of

553
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,039
the reunion. I'm excited to see sort of where we

554
00:30:18,119 --> 00:30:21,000
are now because when you have just had that baby,

555
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,640
and I can imagine, especially for Nia has had like

556
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,920
back to back kids, and it's all filmed. And that's

557
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,039
why people don't like the show, because they think it's dark,

558
00:30:29,079 --> 00:30:31,079
but in my mind, I'm like, it's really a real

559
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,519
representation of that time in your life. And you know,

560
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:39,519
while we have people that age on Summer House, you know,

561
00:30:39,519 --> 00:30:41,599
we've got people in the valley sort of like in

562
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,160
it with like marriage and babies, and I don't know,

563
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,359
I find it. I find it fascinating and I'll be

564
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,640
very sad if they cancel it.

565
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like I said, I kind of hate watch it.

566
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,960
But then there are times when I'm watching it, I'm like, wait, no,

567
00:30:55,119 --> 00:30:58,559
this is actually really good and there's some real stuff

568
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,440
happening here.

569
00:31:00,119 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yeah, Now question for you, what what else

570
00:31:05,759 --> 00:31:08,640
are you watching? So if you're not watching like Bravo

571
00:31:08,759 --> 00:31:10,960
or sitting around waiting for the E show to happen,

572
00:31:11,519 --> 00:31:12,240
what are you watching.

573
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,519
Speaker 2: I rewatch a lot of things. I watch a lot

574
00:31:15,559 --> 00:31:19,839
of movies. I'm you know, I write horror and comedy

575
00:31:19,839 --> 00:31:21,720
and those are the kind of things that I watch.

576
00:31:21,799 --> 00:31:26,759
But I do love reality TV. I find it like

577
00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:28,480
I'm able to watch it and I can kind of

578
00:31:28,519 --> 00:31:31,920
like switch my brain off. I find that if I

579
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,160
It's the same way with reading, Like when I'm writing,

580
00:31:35,319 --> 00:31:38,960
I don't read a lot of fiction. I can read memoirs,

581
00:31:39,039 --> 00:31:42,119
like anything like a magazine or something on the subway

582
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,799
or whatever, because I like people's stories and I like

583
00:31:44,839 --> 00:31:49,279
to absorb people's stories. But like fiction or something scripted,

584
00:31:49,599 --> 00:31:54,519
I'm a little pickier about watching or reading. But there

585
00:31:54,559 --> 00:31:57,559
are things in the horror world that I'm very excited

586
00:31:57,559 --> 00:32:00,960
about coming up. Like there's a Crystal like series. There's

587
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:02,759
a Carry series happening.

588
00:32:03,119 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: I saw about the Carrey series. That's interesting.

589
00:32:05,319 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm super excited about that. The new season of

590
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,759
American Horror Story is following the Coven storyline, which was

591
00:32:13,799 --> 00:32:17,799
my favorite season. Yeah, so I'm super excited about that.

592
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,559
I started watching Real Housewives of London and I think

593
00:32:21,599 --> 00:32:25,559
it's going well. I was very upset about uh, Ladies

594
00:32:25,599 --> 00:32:28,640
of London being canceled because I loved.

595
00:32:28,279 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: It beyond I would listen to it. Listen. If they

596
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,720
said to me, we're going to cancel The Valley or

597
00:32:33,799 --> 00:32:37,119
cancel Ladies of London, it would be a Sophie's choice

598
00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:38,759
for me. But I would say, Okay, we're done with

599
00:32:38,759 --> 00:32:40,720
the Valley, give me more Ladies of London.

600
00:32:41,119 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 2: Yes, Because we were like, we're robbed, We're robbed of

601
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,000
what could have happened with that show. It was such

602
00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:50,319
a great cast. It was so interesting. It made me

603
00:32:50,359 --> 00:32:55,279
want to move to London. So Andy Cohen, they talked.

604
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,599
Andy Cohn was talking about that it was the ratings,

605
00:32:59,319 --> 00:33:03,039
that that's reason why Ladies of London was canceled. Do

606
00:33:03,119 --> 00:33:05,400
you believe that? Because it took him a while to

607
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:05,920
say that.

608
00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:10,599
Speaker 1: I don't know if I believe it or not believe it.

609
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:15,559
But every person I know, every Bravo podcast or every

610
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,400
you know, Bravo influencer, everybody was obsessed with it. You

611
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,279
didn't find me like like a lot of people were

612
00:33:21,319 --> 00:33:24,279
kind of hot and cold on OC and you'd get

613
00:33:24,319 --> 00:33:26,599
a lot of people hot and cold about lots of things.

614
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,519
But everybody loved the show.

615
00:33:30,799 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 2: Yes, it was great, and it was great because of

616
00:33:34,079 --> 00:33:37,400
the cast. I mean, there wasn't a lot of drama happening.

617
00:33:38,599 --> 00:33:41,359
It just was like this sort of just a magical

618
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:46,039
cast that they put together. Do you think. So there

619
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:53,279
was rumors about Margo's husband potentially suing, although she went

620
00:33:53,359 --> 00:33:57,119
on Jeff Lewis's radio show and said that that was

621
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,559
not the case and that if it was the case,

622
00:33:59,599 --> 00:34:01,680
you'd be able to find a lawsuit. So obviously a

623
00:34:01,759 --> 00:34:05,480
lawsuit wasn't filed, But do you think that potentially he

624
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:10,719
threatened to sue and then on top of that, they

625
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,760
had you know, late uh Real Housewives of London potentially

626
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,400
in the can to use on Peacock or Bravo as well.

627
00:34:19,519 --> 00:34:22,000
So do you think maybe they're like, uh, we'll just

628
00:34:22,039 --> 00:34:25,440
cut our losses. Like I don't. I'm very fascinated on

629
00:34:25,519 --> 00:34:29,480
what happened, and I do remember like she's made a

630
00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:33,599
comment about going off of social media, but she literally

631
00:34:33,639 --> 00:34:36,199
went off social media like right before this came out,

632
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,639
as though she like knew something was coming.

633
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think the margo of it is interesting, and

634
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,000
it's also interesting that she went on Jeff's show like

635
00:34:46,519 --> 00:34:50,199
after it was canceled, right like because people were doing

636
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,880
so much press before that she wasn't doing anything.

637
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 2: Oh she did. She did appear. She appeared while the

638
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:01,239
show was airing. She did appear on Jeff's show also.

639
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, so she appeared twice. Yeah, yeah, I found that.

640
00:35:07,159 --> 00:35:10,039
It's also weird to me too that they had the

641
00:35:10,119 --> 00:35:14,239
cast we had, Mark, we had, Kimmy, we had we

642
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,199
had almost every cast member was either on Watch What

643
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,679
Happens Live like Bartender or like sitting with Andy and

644
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,639
doing tons of press and tons of podcasts and everything.

645
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,679
So they were paying for all this pr and then

646
00:35:26,679 --> 00:35:28,360
they haled it.

647
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like we're not getting the full story.

648
00:35:31,519 --> 00:35:34,760
Definitely not I like the full story. I'd like to

649
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,679
know what happened. I also, I really loved Mark Francis

650
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,119
on that show. I know that there's been like a

651
00:35:41,159 --> 00:35:44,440
lot of talk because you know, Bravo's audience is women

652
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:46,760
and gay men primarily, and there's been a lot of

653
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,119
talk on how to incorporate like maybe a gay character

654
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,760
into the Housewives. And while that wasn't The Housewives, I

655
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,880
think that they did it brilliantly. Like he totally fit in.

656
00:35:58,559 --> 00:36:01,239
He's a very interesting character. I mean, he lives in

657
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:07,119
Oscar wild, it's flat. Yeah, he's just he's very interesting. Again,

658
00:36:07,199 --> 00:36:08,840
I don't know that i'd like him in person, he

659
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,079
seems like a lot, but as some as a viewer

660
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:16,400
watching something and you know, a writer who's interested in characters,

661
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,880
I found him very fascinating.

662
00:36:18,679 --> 00:36:22,639
Speaker 1: I completely agree. And then the whole thing with Hecate

663
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:23,960
dying and we didn't.

664
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:28,599
Speaker 2: Get oh I know, I know, because he drowned, right,

665
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,599
he drowned in the bathtub. He drowned in the bathtub

666
00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:32,559
during the heat wave.

667
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she said he was always so careful around water,

668
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,559
and then he I was like, oh my god, it's

669
00:36:38,599 --> 00:36:41,079
like a wild bird she found in her yard that

670
00:36:41,159 --> 00:36:43,159
she made her pet. You just can't you just can't

671
00:36:43,199 --> 00:36:46,519
make it up. You can't make it up. It's fascinating. Well,

672
00:36:46,599 --> 00:36:50,039
I hope with all the uproar about it, I kind

673
00:36:50,039 --> 00:36:53,320
of hope that maybe they'll sort of revisit bringing it

674
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,920
back and sort of give us a Miami situation where

675
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,840
they'll make us wait a little bit and then they'll

676
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,199
bring it back with the same people.

677
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think waiting would be a mistake. Though. That's

678
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,000
a problem. Like it was so magical right when it

679
00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:09,480
was filming. They should have picked up cameras right away, unless, like,

680
00:37:09,559 --> 00:37:11,639
do you think because it's in London that it's an

681
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,719
especially expensive show. I don't know, is that more expensive

682
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,239
than New York or Beverly Hills.

683
00:37:18,079 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. They just have their team there that

684
00:37:20,559 --> 00:37:20,880
does it.

685
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 2: You know, they're not paying them barely anything. You know,

686
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,719
it's first season, so I don't know.

687
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: Sure lay Real Housewives of London. I know that I

688
00:37:31,519 --> 00:37:33,239
had a listener write me and said that they had

689
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,079
already seen the first season because it's aired in England. Yeah,

690
00:37:36,679 --> 00:37:38,440
and they were like, I gotta tell you, it's nowhere

691
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,280
near as good as Ladies of London. I don't know

692
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,119
what Bravo was thinking by picking this up instead of

693
00:37:43,159 --> 00:37:46,559
Lady's of London. It's just doesn't compare. I watched the

694
00:37:46,559 --> 00:37:50,239
first episode and it kind of lost me. Is so

695
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,320
maybe I need to try again.

696
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 2: If you if you thought it was good, I think

697
00:37:53,519 --> 00:37:56,679
it has promise. I think it's interesting. I don't think

698
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,719
it's as good as Ladies of London, but I think

699
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:04,239
you you can't really compare it to that. I did

700
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,719
see the trailer though, and Derinda pops up, which I

701
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:07,840
found very interesting.

702
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: Yes, she doesn't want you to ever forget she lived

703
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:11,400
in London.

704
00:38:11,599 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 2: No, never, and she's like, I forget them that character's name.

705
00:38:17,559 --> 00:38:19,840
I don't have all the characters' names, but she is

706
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,760
friends with the one who seems to be the most reserved.

707
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,519
But in the trailer, she like loses her mind because

708
00:38:27,519 --> 00:38:31,280
there's I think, like an American where there's like another

709
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,400
Juliette who's joining in like episode five or something like that,

710
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,440
and apparently like she comes in and really starts stirring

711
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,079
stuff up. So it will be interesting. It'll be interesting

712
00:38:42,119 --> 00:38:45,840
to watch these women who are so poised and like

713
00:38:46,039 --> 00:38:49,679
reserved and proper like lose their minds because they're going

714
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,000
to Yeah.

715
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:55,199
Speaker 1: That's why I like Ladies of London. Yeah, okay, did you?

716
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,880
I mean, I'm sure you did. What did you think

717
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,599
of Real housew as a Rhode Islander our newest franchise.

718
00:39:02,119 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 2: I loved every minute of it, loved every minute of it.

719
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,719
I have questions. I'd like somebody to do, like a

720
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,559
really in depth interview, because I want to know. I

721
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,199
pieced some things together based on social media and what

722
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,960
cast members have said, but I want to know when

723
00:39:20,119 --> 00:39:24,119
was this cast, what was that process, who brought who?

724
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,239
Because it's perfect, it's perfect how it happened. But I

725
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,119
have a feeling like it's been in the works for

726
00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:33,519
a long time and from what I understand, it's like

727
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:38,679
a two year thing and like it's but it's perfect.

728
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,000
I don't know how especially like and I don't know

729
00:39:42,079 --> 00:39:44,159
no offense to Rhode Island, but I had no idea

730
00:39:44,199 --> 00:39:47,119
about the personalities there, and just just the fact that

731
00:39:47,159 --> 00:39:51,039
they were able to piece together this brilliant cast, each

732
00:39:51,199 --> 00:39:55,119
one there is no weak link. They're all great, and

733
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,719
just the fact that they were able to do that

734
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:02,199
makes me wonder, Okay, where is Real Housewives of New Orleans?

735
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:07,559
Where is Real Housewives of Austin? Where is? It just

736
00:40:07,639 --> 00:40:13,559
made me open my brain to potential new franchises, which

737
00:40:13,599 --> 00:40:19,280
should also make established franchises a little bit worried. Because

738
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,159
if you have Real Housewives of Rhode Island coming on

739
00:40:23,519 --> 00:40:26,159
and just like blowing it out of the water and

740
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,920
everybody loving it, and you know it didn't cost barely

741
00:40:29,039 --> 00:40:31,039
anything for them to make it, none of them are

742
00:40:31,039 --> 00:40:34,440
making money in the beginning. Then you have, you know,

743
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,280
cast like Orange County, which has been around twenty years now,

744
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,679
or Beverly Hills, which cost a fortune, although that's more

745
00:40:41,679 --> 00:40:44,159
of a lifestyle show, so that might be exempt from this.

746
00:40:44,639 --> 00:40:46,760
But all these other shows that have been around for

747
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,840
a long time, like I don't know, like I it

748
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,320
might be time to start retiring shows. What do you

749
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,239
think about that?

750
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,519
Speaker 1: That makes me sad because you know, they did that

751
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:01,119
to our New York and we did like it. So

752
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:04,920
O C is a little different because I think we

753
00:41:05,559 --> 00:41:09,840
generally the fandom doesn't feel as strongly about the OC

754
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,719
women as we did our og New York ladies. Yeah,

755
00:41:14,119 --> 00:41:16,840
I think people just feel so strongly about that. You know,

756
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,679
the Luay and the Bethany of the Sonia and you

757
00:41:19,679 --> 00:41:22,519
know Jill Zeron even God Bless and we feel so

758
00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:26,599
strongly about that. I am excited about the E Show,

759
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:30,239
but and I'm also excited about the New New York

760
00:41:30,559 --> 00:41:32,679
I think, and as a New Yorker you can speak

761
00:41:32,679 --> 00:41:34,360
to this. I think they shouldn't have named it real

762
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:35,239
House as of New York.

763
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was their biggest mistake. It should have been

764
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,719
I mean, there's already in the city or the city

765
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,119
or whatever, but they should have they should have called

766
00:41:44,119 --> 00:41:44,800
it something else.

767
00:41:45,199 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 1: That was a huge mistakes in Manhattan, just something.

768
00:41:49,199 --> 00:41:52,199
Speaker 2: Something something, or not even housewives. It could have been

769
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,960
like I don't know, it could have been the I think, well,

770
00:41:56,079 --> 00:41:58,159
they weren't all moms. I was going to say, maybe

771
00:41:58,199 --> 00:42:00,280
they could have gone back to the original life idea

772
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,280
of Roney and called in Manhattan Moms or something like that.

773
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:06,920
I just think the mistake was calling it the same

774
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:11,559
thing and not sort of refreshing the entry. So it's like,

775
00:42:11,599 --> 00:42:14,400
what is it real Housewives of New York season whatever.

776
00:42:14,519 --> 00:42:17,480
But it's like going to be their third season, right.

777
00:42:18,119 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 1: I didn't like that at all because they haven't earned that.

778
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,920
You know, season sixteen, seventeen, they were Season one. They

779
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,719
were a season one cast, and that's what we should

780
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:26,039
have done.

781
00:42:26,559 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would be really pissed off if I was

782
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,079
one of the ogs for them to be on season

783
00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:34,280
thirteen or fourteen or whatever it is.

784
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I mean they're trying,

785
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,199
you know, they're kind of rebranding New Jersey, and I

786
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,719
haven't really heard any buzz either way. We know that

787
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,760
Milania was in the news for you know, punching her

788
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:53,880
stepfather allegedly or her stepbrother. Not sure she punched somebody

789
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,960
with the initials l R. And hope that'll play out,

790
00:42:58,079 --> 00:42:58,320
you know.

791
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I'm kind of concerned about New Jersey. I

792
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,440
feel like it's been a long time since filming, and

793
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,679
I just I don't know what that's gonna look like.

794
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,280
I am happy that Teresa Melissa seem to be on

795
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:20,039
a better page. Whether that's manufactured or not, I don't know.

796
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:23,159
Maybe it took Maybe it took Teresa. You know, a

797
00:43:23,199 --> 00:43:27,000
couple of years pause and no paycheck to be like, eh,

798
00:43:27,159 --> 00:43:28,920
I don't dislike you guys that much.

799
00:43:30,639 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not. I'm not a giant. Teresa's Dan and

800
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,719
I hate that Louis, so I'll watch it just because

801
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,559
I don't want to hate watch that red face monster.

802
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:40,000
You know.

803
00:43:40,159 --> 00:43:45,079
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, Louis is definitely like a triggering individual. But

804
00:43:45,519 --> 00:43:52,599
I do you know, watching jen h the New Gens show,

805
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,840
I Teresa, what I find interesting with her is as

806
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,639
wild and crazy as she seems to be, and she's arguably,

807
00:44:00,679 --> 00:44:04,280
like maybe one of the most volatile housewives that we've had.

808
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,400
Gia seems so well adjusted like her kids. I know,

809
00:44:08,519 --> 00:44:10,599
Milania is kind of having a little bit of issues,

810
00:44:10,599 --> 00:44:14,880
but Milania arrived from the womb like that. Like Milania

811
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,800
was a wild child from the moment, like she was

812
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,800
on camera, like that's just her personality, Like that's just

813
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,559
how she was born. But all her other kids, and

814
00:44:25,639 --> 00:44:28,719
Malania's too. Malanie is not a bad kid. But Teresa's

815
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,960
doing something right because she seems to have raised some

816
00:44:31,039 --> 00:44:32,119
really great children.

817
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think if you look at it,

818
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,840
Gia has had to be a parent, you know. Yeah,

819
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,159
and then Malania came along as a third daughter into

820
00:44:42,559 --> 00:44:45,960
this TV world and then God bless Gabrielle. We never

821
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:47,920
see her and she's probably the smartest one of all,

822
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:48,559
you know.

823
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, Yeah, it's yeah. I'm not a huge teresastan,

824
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,920
but when you think about everything that she's put on TV,

825
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:02,559
it's kind of miraculous. Yeah, that's it's amazing what she

826
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,039
has gone through on TV.

827
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:09,639
Speaker 1: I could agree. Okay, Now tell everybody about what they

828
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,840
can do if they want to get your book, and

829
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,599
also let me this is this is for real. I

830
00:45:14,639 --> 00:45:17,480
saw you post that somebody was reading your book on

831
00:45:17,519 --> 00:45:19,519
the subway. Was that real or was that your friend?

832
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:21,639
Speaker 2: No comment?

833
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:25,599
Speaker 1: Because I saw that, I was like that that would

834
00:45:25,639 --> 00:45:29,079
be really something to be in the wild and see

835
00:45:29,119 --> 00:45:32,400
somebody reading your book. That would really be something.

836
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 2: Yes, Yeah, a hot dude reading, hot dude reading.

837
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:41,119
Speaker 1: That's that's what more do you want on your Instagram

838
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:42,519
rather than hot dude reading?

839
00:45:43,119 --> 00:45:46,679
Speaker 2: Yes, So you can find me on Instagram at Jason Zephyr.

840
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,639
You can find my book Jason Zephyr dot com. But

841
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,800
it's available everywhere online. You can also go to your

842
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,320
local bookstore and if it's not in stock, ask them

843
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,239
to put it in stock. I released it independently in

844
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,840
my own company after kind of severing ties with a

845
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:10,280
very big agency. This was after publishers sort of wanted

846
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,360
me to change the main character a little bit. They

847
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,880
wanted her they didn't find her to be likable enough.

848
00:46:16,119 --> 00:46:18,760
But that's something that like female characters get a lot.

849
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,719
Uh the husband is cheating on the wife and like

850
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,840
has you know his mistress in a hotel suite, but

851
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:29,079
nothing about him, nothing about him, only about Yeah, he's fine,

852
00:46:29,199 --> 00:46:32,239
but she's a little depressed in the beginning, and oh,

853
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,679
can't she be more likable or she needs to be

854
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,719
thinking about her child to her children at every step

855
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,400
of the moment. But so I decided to do it myself.

856
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,760
I started my own company called It's a Live Books.

857
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,639
I hired a cartoonist from the New Yorker to do

858
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:50,480
my cover, which is really a beautiful covers cover. It's beautiful.

859
00:46:50,599 --> 00:46:53,039
His name is Dan Mistilla, so he designed the cover.

860
00:46:54,079 --> 00:46:56,840
I hired editors, I did, I'm doing all the marketing,

861
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,440
and so I just kind of decided to do it myself.

862
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,760
Reviews have been really great. It's a great summer read. Yes,

863
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,599
I'm super entertaining. It's not the kind of book that's

864
00:47:06,639 --> 00:47:08,719
going to sit on your nightstand and like stare at

865
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,519
you for six months. Like it's the kind of book

866
00:47:10,559 --> 00:47:12,320
that you're going to read on vacation. You're going to

867
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:13,920
read it on the plane, You're going to read it

868
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,519
over a weekend. It's a lot of fun.

869
00:47:17,039 --> 00:47:20,559
Speaker 1: I am taking the book to we have a beach ouse.

870
00:47:20,599 --> 00:47:22,440
I'm going to take it there and leave it there

871
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,320
so that when people come, because it's I think it's

872
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,079
a great beach read. So when people come, because a

873
00:47:27,079 --> 00:47:28,679
lot of times people will come to visit, they're like, oh,

874
00:47:28,679 --> 00:47:30,159
I don't have anything to read, and I'm like, well,

875
00:47:30,159 --> 00:47:32,119
I've got these choices, So I'm going to take it

876
00:47:32,159 --> 00:47:35,239
because I think it's a great a beach read as well.

877
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,440
And I got to tell you, there is a little

878
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:41,239
bit of a horror to it, but it is it

879
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,000
is very tongue in cheek funny. I think.

880
00:47:43,639 --> 00:47:46,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, so there is definitely horror to it, but it's

881
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:50,039
not necessarily for people for that only like horror.

882
00:47:50,119 --> 00:47:51,800
Speaker 1: Like it's because it's campy.

883
00:47:52,159 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 2: It's super funny. Even you know, it's zombies, so you know, spoiler,

884
00:47:57,519 --> 00:48:00,199
there's some blood and guts and zombies eat people like

885
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,519
this is what they do. This is what they do,

886
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:04,920
but I try to write it with a sense of humor.

887
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,000
And you know, the response has been really good. The

888
00:48:09,159 --> 00:48:12,199
editorial reviews have been great, the reader reviews have been great.

889
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:17,079
It's growing. I'm hoping that it pops off. I appreciate

890
00:48:17,159 --> 00:48:19,760
you having me on your shows to tell people about it.

891
00:48:20,199 --> 00:48:24,760
Oh yeah, so yeah, so you can. You can buy

892
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:28,199
it online everywhere. You can go to my website jasonzeffor

893
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:31,719
dot com follow me at Jason's effort, but also go

894
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,280
to your local bookstore and ask for it, and if

895
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,440
they don't have it in stock, that lets them know

896
00:48:36,679 --> 00:48:38,920
we need to order this. Because they can order it.

897
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,800
It's available for every bookstore to order. I have a

898
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,599
couple of meetings actually at the end of the week

899
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,239
for a couple of big stores in New York City

900
00:48:46,679 --> 00:48:48,840
and so yeah, so I'm excited.

901
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,199
Speaker 1: Well, you know, fun fact, I used to work at

902
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:56,280
a little local bookstore here in Alexandria, Virginia, and that

903
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,880
was like, there's a few favorite things about working there

904
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:00,679
because I worked my regular job and I worked that

905
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,559
part time and I was in my twenties, and my

906
00:49:03,599 --> 00:49:05,679
favorite thing was on Sundays. The people that got the

907
00:49:05,679 --> 00:49:07,599
New York Times would come in and get their New

908
00:49:07,679 --> 00:49:10,760
York Times and read it in the store. They would sit, yeah,

909
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:12,760
and read it, because you couldn't really get New York

910
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,320
Times delivered to your house at that way back in

911
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,400
the olden days. And what I really love too is

912
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,480
people coming in and asking for books, and if we

913
00:49:20,519 --> 00:49:22,239
didn't have them, you know, we'd have to go into

914
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,039
our system and order them for people. And then we

915
00:49:25,039 --> 00:49:28,639
would always order three, right this person wants someone, now,

916
00:49:28,639 --> 00:49:30,480
we'll have two on the shelf. And it was always

917
00:49:30,639 --> 00:49:32,519
great because it was a way to find out about

918
00:49:32,519 --> 00:49:34,960
books I didn't know about because someone had heard of

919
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,199
it some way and they wanted they wanted to get

920
00:49:37,199 --> 00:49:39,400
it from the local bookstore. So I think that's a

921
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,760
that's a hot tip to go buy your local bookstore

922
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:42,719
and ask people to order it.

923
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. And for the bookstores because I'm in contact

924
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,960
with like three large bookstores if they're listening to this,

925
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,239
carry my book because I'm doing interviews and I can

926
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,159
point people in to where they can buy the book

927
00:49:57,159 --> 00:50:00,440
in New York City. So yeah, yeah, so buy the book,

928
00:50:00,679 --> 00:50:03,119
stop the book, do the book.

929
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:04,519
Speaker 1: And try to buy local if you can. I'm very

930
00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:07,880
I'm very into local booksellers. Okay, thank you Jason very much,

931
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,800
