Speaker 4 (00:23):
How many weeks do you think Teresa lasted?

Speaker 3 (00:26):
I'm gonna say three.

Speaker 4 (00:27):
She said that to him in public.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
I know on a carpet.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
Man, it was excellent. Excellent.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Countess Lawan is going to come on Rapaport's Reality. What
are behind the curtain, behind the curtains here.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Let's keep it up. Let's kick me, Let's keep it one.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
Okay, Red in the face, babe, a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Your lips still swollen? You woke up with swollen?

Speaker 4 (01:05):
I'm recorded?

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Oh hello, show them, Show them how you attacked me
in real life.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Babe, show them who you really are.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
We knew what kind of lunatics we were. Welcome to
Rapaport's Reality. My name is Michael Rappaport.

Speaker 6 (01:23):
I'm Kiev Rapaport, and this is Rapaport's Reality, where me
and my wife discuss all things reality TV, all things
popular culture, and a few things about the comings and
goings from how our relationship, which brings me to something

(01:43):
that I got in the DM's babe what somebody asked
about a update on Kibi's frozen shoulder situation.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh that's so nice, thank you. Well I thought it
was getting better. I have to be honest, I've really
skipped out on the physical therapy.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
You were there.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
I mean I did.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
I was doing it a lot, seven ten times a week.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
It's costly, and the insurance was it covered. That's not why.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
But but also like fix the ship.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Yeah, I mean you know, I got to the point
where they do the myofascial release part, you know, where
he really gets in there under your shoulder girdle and
he's like and I was like getting relief, and I
was like, yes, this is what it was. I don't
want to lift three pound weights and do these little
extra I do that at home.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
And uh, I do something I can't do at home.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Yes, and that wasn't really happening.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Although you know it's a wonderful physical trader, that's not
it anyway, It's or at a year and it's.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Has it been a year?

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yeah, it's been a year.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
So how does it feel right now? Because you were
saying that it feels.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Hurting me yesterday and it's a little sword.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
I can't you know, I don't have a full range
of motion anywhere near full range of motion.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
In fact, it's not good. Are you doing the what
would you say that would be like?

Speaker 4 (02:53):
This is that's probably like seventy percent.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Yeah, it's just not but it's stiff.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
But I've been going to get a massage every week,
and I like the girl who works on it.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
She's very hippy dippy. So she's like, I said, oh
my gosh.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
I think you fixed it.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
She goes, I'm just listening, and I said, okay, right, okay,
keep listening. I think the next time I went back,
she didn't listen as much because I didn't feel.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I don't know. I don't know what the answer is,
but I probably should be back in physical therapy.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
It's so foreign to me.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
But anyway, thanks for asking. We're gonna keep working on it.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Though a lot is happening in the world of reality TV.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City returned with a bang.

Speaker 4 (03:37):
With a bang, we are on the.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
Cuspy or on the heels of the Real Housewives of
Beverly Hills getting ready to return, and what do they
say about Rachel.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Zoe Zoe MG Zoe MG.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Rachel Zoe becoming a real housewife of Beverly Hills is
going to take a sh which doesn't need to be
taken to the next level, to another level.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Oh, it's it's a whole other stratosphere.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
It's like I had to put on in the background
this morning after I worked out, like her show, the
Rachel Zoe Project. Yeah, because I need to get in
the mood for you know, I get I'm prepping myself
for the greatness of I mean, she is an icon
to me. I'm one of the fans, Like I am
a me too fan. You remember the time Tammy and

(04:26):
I went on her store in the Palisades, Yes, and
we were buying these pants and she came into the store.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
And I was more excited about Wait, I was dropped.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Her was like, what, like my husband, she didn't know
who you were? Thinking that maybe that would give me
some extra credit and extra time with.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Her while I was buying.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
She shouldn't know who. I know, she's amazing.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Hard.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
That day we were just talking about this with each other,
like who you would get excited. Was it that I
was saying we were talking about who like I'm excited
to meet in life?

Speaker 3 (05:01):
She was one of the people that I've acted like
a fool.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
She's one of the people that was my in path
to Bravo and reality TV. Ye, because when I was
watching her on TV and you were watching her show,
I was like, is this a I didn't know? I
truly and I don't mean this to be like facetious

(05:25):
or funny, like I didn't understand what the fuck was
going on, Like I was, this woman is so about
who she is and so.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
In her own world and in her own bubble and
this language that she was sing bananas and the.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
The this gonna die, You're gonna die or what did
she used to say? She was like is this banana?
Is that bananas? And where she'd be like, she's the
one who started saying I die, right, you know what
she says that I die, I'm dead.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
You know that whole I'm dead thing that's her?

Speaker 4 (05:56):
Is that her?

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yeah? She's incredible, like she is.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Is your clothes like dope? But do you rock? Rachel?

Speaker 1 (06:04):
No?

Speaker 3 (06:04):
No, I bought one pair of pants. It's cool.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
No, I don't I think she came out with a
clothing line and I'm maybe it was popular. She had
a fabulous like box that she would sell. I get
a subscription box where she picked things out.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
No, it's not. It was never my thing.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
I just like her, the audassy of her to have
this nineteen seventies disco style boho chic and stick with it.
It's a brak, you know, with the big glasses and
like the Jeccio big glasses. You know, I'm talking about
this is her kind of vibe and she and it's
vintage and it's she sticks with it and it's very

(06:44):
very particular and for me because I like, as you know,
what do I like the row right?

Speaker 3 (06:50):
But I like a slow luxury right? Slow fashion, slow fashion?
But I did, I'm like, is.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
It it's slow fashion? You don't even know what it's called.
What is it called?

Speaker 3 (07:04):
You know it's called slow fashion?

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Is it slow fashion?

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (07:08):
Is it called slow fashion?

Speaker 6 (07:11):
Right?

Speaker 4 (07:11):
Now? So you didn't you wanted me to fill it
because you couldn't figure out.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
And also I was trying to see if you're baying
attention because I feel like.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
You're glazing over.

Speaker 4 (07:19):
No.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
No, I I was rambling about you know, boho chic.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
I wanted to ask, is she started out as a stylist, right, Yes,
she was.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
A Hollywood stylist, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Right, Which you know, I gotta say, I'm not down
with the whole stylist look because so many people now
that I am a little bit more fashion conscious and
aware because I watched these shows and you know, we
do this podcast, and so for this one, you can
tell who gets stylized, and I don't think that's dope.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
You know, who's a really good example of it, like
that maybe needed a stylist.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
For Lawrence.

Speaker 6 (08:02):
Yes, she she should exchange.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
She didn't know how to do it, and then she
got us out. And I think there's somewhere in the
world an interview where she got a stylist and they
were asking her questions and she would what would she
tell her younger self to get a stylist that she
didn't dress well at all.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
But right now, as a mother and as she's in
her thirties, she should just only fuck with the row
like that's just that's all.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
That's a large part.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, yeah, that that seems like it works for her,
not that I know I could pick that stuff out, Yes.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
She mixes it up.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
Nonetheless.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Nonetheless, Like there's men quarterbacks in the NFL.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
They show up to the games and.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
I'm like, you didn't pick this shit out, Like to me,
it's like it's your cheating, Like somebody else picked this.

Speaker 4 (08:47):
Out for you.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Joe Burrow, who's a quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals who
loves dressing up, who got injured first week, he showed
up in all black and I was like, that's how
you need to show up to work. This isn't a
fucking runway. You're a quarterback. I get it as party,
but like, this is a workplace thing. My man, you're
a quarterback. I don't want to see you in purple

(09:09):
and pink.

Speaker 3 (09:10):
And when did that start? Baby? You see that in
the NBA two.

Speaker 4 (09:13):
The NBA definitely started it.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Cam Newton was a big part of it because Cam
Newton would come in with like you'd just be like, what.

Speaker 4 (09:21):
The fuck is kid?

Speaker 3 (09:22):
And Dennis Rodman right or no.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yes, but he would his was in Yes, Dennis Rodman
started it, but like the NBA definitely brought it in.
And Cam Newton, who's a quarterback who did great and
Special Forces, which by the way, I can't wait for
Special Forces to come in. The fact that Teresa and
Jia Judas are doing that together is wild. It's gonna
be incredible, the two of them together. Like, I don't know,

(09:47):
it looked like somebody passed out during a challenge. If
it was Teresa.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
I haven't seen the trailer, babe.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
How many weeks do you think Teresa lasted.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
I'm going to say three. I'm gonna say three. G
it could probably make it the whole way. Yeah, but
I'm gonna say Teresa just with the not having the comforts,
you know, it's like kind of like Denise. It was
like you can tell she's struggling with like without lip closs,
do you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (10:13):
But we have to say, yo, Denise superseded expectations.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Sorry, I take that back. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Teresa did work out really hard and become a bodybuild,
so that is wrong. I'm not giving her the credit.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
Person behind the scenes.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
I'm just gonna tell you a little bit behind the scenes, babe,
from these shows, because you know I am coming out
on Traders season.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Whatever it is. The lack of comforts, well, that's a whole.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Other Separate the men from the boys.

Speaker 4 (10:44):
Just that alone, not having your lip class.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
I don't care if it's not a workout like when
Teresa and she did get her body in ridiculous shape. Yeah,
but it's she was at a gym in New Jersey
and she'd go to the gym and.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
Get energy wagon to go home. I get it.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
It's different when you're in wherever they film that. I
think they film that show in Scotland. Also, yes, yes, Scotland.
They don't have air conditioning like they have air conditioning
in Jersey.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
What's so funny? Share behind the curtain, behind the curtains here.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Let's keep it, let's kip it, Let's keep it deep into.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Okay, keep it and eye.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
When we're recording the podcast, sometimes I feel like we're
in a tug of war of who's speaking who's When
I'm speaking, you're not speaking, and.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
We get into stop babe.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
The problem is is that you talk and you're not
looking at me, like you're doing your own podcast and
I'm looking at you.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
But then if I.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Don't say anything, you will tell me. You gotta add
and you gotta ask questions. I don't know where to
get in because sometimes you just won't shut the fuck up.

Speaker 4 (11:55):
Okay, let me just throw the question again.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
Okay, how many weeks will Teresa last on Special Forces?

Speaker 4 (12:03):
You said three?

Speaker 3 (12:04):
After all that, I still say I say three.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
That's a lot of weeks that ain't normal show. How
long is the show? I don't know, maybe ten, ten episodes.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
Eight. I think she'll go three.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Yeah, given that I know the show and that ain't
no joke, challenges.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
Get increasingly more difficult.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
So I say three, okay, because that that show's no joke.
That show and the running and the water and the
fucking sleeping and I don't care if they sleep in
a hotel, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
That show is not a joke.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
And the fact that they're gonna want to keep Teresa
and Gia there because they're good for TV.

Speaker 4 (12:43):
Yeah, and there's no makeup, there's no, no, no, none
of that.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (12:48):
It's gonna be tough.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:49):
I can't wait for that.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
It's gonna be amazing.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
Damn. That is a good show Special Forces.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Guys, if you've never watched it, last season, in particular
with Cam Newton, Denise Richard and the girl who used
to date Travis kewls like it was a good season
this year, they got Juicy Jesse Smolet. They got Johnny Manzell,
another football player who I think is going to be
very good TV. He's a wild card. And there's some

(13:16):
other reality people. But I can't wait for Special Forces
to come back on.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Speaking of I'm not you're not speaking when i'm speaking.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
No, you're not talking when I'm talking.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yeah, talking when I'm talking.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
You're not talking when I'm talking.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
You're not talking.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Hillary from Connecticut, Hillary Baldwin from Connecticut is doing Dancing.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
With the Stars.

Speaker 4 (13:44):
Ooh, and I.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Saw her do.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
I think I believe it was one of her first dance,
the cha cha cha Oh it started. Yeah, she did
the cha chaw, not the chacha. The cha cha was
her dance. And that's giving twenty two twenty five not
that serious to me because when she does her interview
after the dance, she's speaking in accent still like she

(14:07):
hasn't learned, Like there's still you know, she was nervous
because she gave dancing up, you know, fifteen years ago
because she had a hip injury and it was her dream.
And he said that they're gonna do an authentic chacha.
You know, she said chucha you know, and I just
think the comments that she gets more Spanish than more

(14:28):
Spanish than any Spanish person, and it's so weird. But
they cut to Alec Baldwin in the audience, and this
is what I was gonna ask, you, do you think
like he thinks he's created a monster. I know he
was married to someone famous before, but he doesn't crack
a smile. He is giving pissed off dad in the
audience like she does great right, And at the end

(14:49):
they panned him several times and he is stoneface.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
I think there is some of that. I think there's
some of Listen, I get out Baldwin. I've been around
loud with Bowin. He's a guy, he is a famous guy.
I think he's very conflicted. I think he wants to
support his wife. I think, uh, he's got how many
fucking kids.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
I don't they have how many?

Speaker 1 (15:14):
And then he's got the other ones. I mean, he's
been through the ringer. If I were him, I'd be like,
I support you.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
I'm home. I'm gonna tweet about you. Don't go to
you in the audience.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Ya, this is what I say. I don't think he
should have been there if he wasn't going to put
the You know you.

Speaker 4 (15:29):
Got a fucking smile.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
You gotta paint that fucking smile on your face no
matter what.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Look like a supportive has it. He looks pissed off
to be there.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
Did he? Yeah, I can't. I gotta watch that ship.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
The comments though, are like, go home. They want to
The audience wants her out, she's not.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
We fuck with her, Yeah we we Alec. We fuck
with you, Alec, we fuck with your wife, We fuck
with her. I think she's a total character. I think
she lacks a lot of self awareness. I also think
she's been through the ringer because of her HU. I
think she's been through the ringer because of her Altiyah
and all that stuff. And they just keep going. I

(16:07):
respect motherfuckers that just keep just plowing through. She's like,
I want to dance. I supported you. You're gonna support me.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yes, that's it, That's what's happening.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Now you're gonna be in every TikTok fucking video with
my toes in your face. You've seen the tiktoks where
she's got her it's so wild.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
He seems like he's down with and some of it.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
He says, you can't really read it.

Speaker 4 (16:28):
You can say, you know what, I don't want to.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Be in this video.

Speaker 4 (16:31):
Do the video yourself.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
Sit this TikTok out.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
You don't have to be in every video.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
It's starting to look I don't know. It makes me
very uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
He's got to be exhausted. Forget the tragedy that happened
on that set, just from those seven kids.

Speaker 4 (16:45):
I don't care how much you love.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Each and every one of them, and how special each
and every one of them are and all that stuff
it is. I don't care how much help two three
you can have seven nannies reach and every one of them.
It has got to be a exhausting And she talk
about energy, yeah, just her like she seems like she
I mean, you wake up with energy.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
She seems like the fucking energizer bunny.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
She wakes up and she's doing cartwheels and backflips and
she doesn't stop, and bless her, bless her. I need
to watch Hilaria on Dancing with the Stars.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
I fuck with it. Like five, there's no other person.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Who has said anything in popular culture which has resonated
with me as much as Hilaria Baldwin said, which is
when I'm speaking, you're not speaking. When I'm talking, You're
not talking. That shits, that's like historic. And my man
was looking like, yo, he said that to me. She
said that to him in public on.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
A red carpet.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
Man, that shit was excellent. Excellent, baby.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
I gotta tell you, Yeah, when you're you, let me
tell you something about my wife.

Speaker 4 (17:55):
Her smile is everything.

Speaker 3 (18:00):
Some nice babe.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
You have just made me laugh.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Character man, you are people only knew who.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
They don't know, and I show a lot they are,
You show a lot, but they don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
But they still don't know. I was like, when you're
talking about Alec Baldwin being tired.

I'm like, me too.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
Hashtag me too, motherfuckers, me too, Babe.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
We want to talk about the because you started off
talking about Housewives of Salt Lake City and we went
right into Zoe MG.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yes, Rachel.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Zoe is such a character, I mean, who she is authentically,
because you can't put that on the thing about Hilaria
is that I don't like I feel like some of
it's put on, Like I'm not seeing her essence. A
lot of these women I know, but it's not. It
seems like it's a little like what we're saying. I
sat on the sidelines. I was a pretty yoga teacher,

(18:56):
and now I'm about to be something. It's like that
competitive I'm gonna meete with my husband kind of thing, right, you.

Speaker 4 (19:01):
Can't compete with Alex and well you can entertain.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
It's giving that.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
It's giving that off, right, And so what I'm saying
these other women that come on their own, I mean,
the cast of Salt Lake is incredible in terms of
casting and these people and the essence of who they are,
wacky as they may be, is incredible. It's teaching every
one of them. It's like, you know, it's like the
old game that we used to play with sex in
the city.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
Are you a Charlotte?

Speaker 4 (19:25):
Are you right?

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Like this show is that these these individuals are truly
individuals completely.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
Mary Cosby, I mean what.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
I have a question for you, babe. Yes, because I
was watching, we were watching. But while I was watching
and downloading the season premiere of the Real Housewives of
Salt Lake City number one, Mary looks better than she's
ever looked. She also seems happier than she's ever looked.
And I wanted to ask you in the first few

(19:57):
seasons with Mary Cosby, and I still think her shade
and her confessionals are the most unpredictable. But at one
point during a confessional in season sixth premiere that we
just saw she was laughing at herself. And I've always
been so curious about how much she's aware, and that

(20:19):
made me realize that now she's aware of her being funny. Yes,
but do you think when she first started on the show,
Mary Cosby was not happy? Maybe not into it. Possibly
I'm not saying maybe she was had wine. Maybe she
because she seems so much lighter.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
I have an answer for that.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
This is because I've given a lot of thought because
I think she It's like I liken it to the
actor that gets the part and they judge the character,
And will you learn an acting class that you don't Ever,
you can't play a character fully if you're judging it.
You can't get a script for play a murder and.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
Be like this is taste it terrible.

Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
So I think at the beginning, you have to remember
she took over the church and she was a pastor
at a church.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
Right. Oh, I think she was.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
Hesitant, didn't really know what the show is about, even
she knew a little bit she did it. She was
judging it, so she got on there and she thought
non participation was enough. Then, when she could see the
franchises and what these women are able to make out
of their brands and their participation in the shows, I
thought she said, well, I'm just not being a smart businesswoman.

(21:29):
If I don't get on here and be in it
to win it, I'm doing myself a disservice. So I
think that what we saw before it was some of
her personality, but also some of her just being angry
that she was on the show.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Right said, It's like an actor doing a sitcom and
they're like, this is a stupid sitcom. The next thing
you know, the entire world's watching and you're gonna make
a million dollars an episode.

Speaker 4 (21:51):
You're like, oh, I love it.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (21:52):
Now, this is great.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
I love it, and I'm going to make a best friend.
I don't forget on the last season. At the re union,
Andy was like, so nice. You know, we've seen the
change in you, and she likens it to having Angie.
I've met a friend finally, and these other emitures are
looking at her like Meredith was like, hello, I was
your friend, so I think it wasn't. It's not Angie

(22:15):
that's made her come alive.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
It's she. It's her. She's decided to participate.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
When we talk about meeting people like, we've met the
entire cast of Salt Lake City, We've met Heather, We've
met Whitney Rose, who is going to be a guest
on this podcast. Also, Luanne has confirmed Great Countess Luanne
is going to come on Rapaports Reality And I got
to tell you, babe. When she's texting me, she actually said, Darling,

(22:42):
can we do it at da da da da time?
And I was like, oh shit, I sound like that.
I was like, oh shit, can when we do it?
Can you make eggs? Lafranchise Francis. But the women of
Salt Lake City, we've met them, I have. We have
yet to meet Mary Coused me. I would bug out
meeting her.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah, me too. I would love to meet her.

Speaker 4 (23:04):
Because I would love to know what she's like like.
I would love to see her.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
I think she's like what she's like.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
I mean, so far, all of these people have been themselves,
which is the beauty of reality television, and specifically the
Housewife's franchise.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
What is your takeaway from the first episode. How do
you feel about the show now that the ladies, You know,
when the show reaches a certain point, like the ladies
understand the game completely.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
I feel like there's beefs.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Even though they're trying their best to get along, some
of them don't get along. I can't tell if Whitney
and Heather have truly squashed it, although Heather did come
to Whitney's defense when what's the one who attacked her
about her brand was going at her?

Speaker 4 (23:57):
But what is your sort of feeling about the show
right now?

Speaker 3 (24:00):
I was going to ask you the same question.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
Oh, my feeling about the show is when they get
into veteran status, they're in veterans atas. I feel like
Bronwin was brilliant casting. I feel like, what's what is
the one's name?

Speaker 3 (24:13):
Who is the new one?

Speaker 1 (24:14):
The one from last year? Who the record of the
fucking not angy Brittany Brittany Yes, when she went at
it with Heather Gay. You know, Brittany, Like, listen, what
I feel about the show is the show is cooking.
The show is cooking with gas because it's in a
sweet spide And then we have to be careful, yes,
because you could get too conscious, you could get too contrived.

(24:38):
But I feel like this season is gonna be good.
Like I said, Bronwin, last year was excellent. Season two,
you're always gonna come in with more awareness, just you know,
more of us.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
She had to admit to being a liar.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Wow, that was heavy duty, man. That made me so uncomfortable.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
Yea millionaire, not a kazillionaire.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
A four million dollar piece of jewelry, Like you're just
like picking up like it's a pair of sneakers or
come on.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yeah, I just listen. This is what I felt.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I felt is that all the things that we said
about the show last season, this very first episode, the
first six minutes, I got scared.

Speaker 4 (25:15):
Yes, little contrived, I little contrived.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
I thought, Oh, here comes the RV. Oh shout out
to the Shapiros, because all I could think about is
that their RV era. Yes, is that what they want
to know? They don't like calling it an RV. I
think it's supposed to be like a luxury I don't know.

Speaker 4 (25:30):
That was an RV that was It was a luxury RV,
but it was an RV.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Yeah. Anyway, So I think that. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
I just think that we might be going down the
line of that kind of stuff of like, let's take
the trip and then let's talk about the scary thing.
There's a whole thing of them walking in the dark
with like Dravag was giving Blair Witch Project.

Speaker 4 (25:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
I I'm afraid to jump on the thing. Oh my gosh,
it's great.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
What I can say is a casting is fantastic. These
women are each and every one of them pretty special.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
Now is Lisa Barlow not coming back or she just
didn't go to this trip?

Speaker 3 (26:05):
She just didn't go on the trip.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
Okay, because there was a lot of talk about Lisa Barlow,
the great Lisa Barlow and that Meredith marx Man just
talk about an original, unique like she's in her own
thing totally.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
She's not flinching to get like, I don't know, I
just I admire that about these women.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Yeah, it's a good show of the Real Housewives of
Salt Lake City just started as awesome.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
We have to talk.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
About how much we loved the Charlie Sheen documentary. Wow,
there is a two part Charlie Sheen documentary on Netflix.

Speaker 4 (26:39):
It's an hour and a half each.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
It is fascinating, it's awesome, it's exciting, it's well done.
The fact that the man was able to do a documentary,
and the fact that the man was and been through
the Ringer and is such a good memory, Like he's
able to articulate his life life way better than like
he remembers, like I was eight and I was on

(27:02):
the set of Apocalypse Now, and then me and my
brother we had a fistfight when we were eleven. And
he articulates everything with such details through his whole career
and the drugs and the alcohol, and the drugs and
the alcohol and the sex and the drugs and the altcohol.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
The fact that he's able.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
To do that is incredible. He might really have time,
for sure.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
I thought that the whole way through he's got some
kind of blood. He's different than the rest of us,
because I don't know how he could survive doing drugs
the way he did.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
And able to talk about it and he still looks
like Charlie sheenon Babe.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
The only way this guy was gonna get off drug
is if his crack dealer made his a lighter strength
of crack it's that's wild.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
You gotta watch it. It's it's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
His crack dealer is in the documentary, which just goes
to show how even his crack dealer was rooting for
him to get off crack. But at one point when
they were trying to get him sober and save his life,
somebody reached out to his crackdailer and be like, listen,
we know he's not gonna stop. We know you're not
going to stop, but can you at least sell him

(28:08):
crack that's less potent, And the crack deial was like fine.
And I will say on the Brother podcast to Rap
Ports Reality, I am Rappaport Stereo podcast. We did a
whole Charlie Sheen a documentary discussion and we failed to
even mention that Heidi Flies.

Speaker 4 (28:26):
There's a whole section in this documentary.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
With his relationship and his contribution to the ending of
Heidi Flice's rain as the maid Madam of Hollywood. And
when you have a documentary and the Heidi Flies thing
is like a D story, maybe even in an E story,
you have a fucking life.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
True, I totally forgot about the Heidi when it came
when it got to that part, I couldn't believe it.
I couldn't believe that he was responsible for the downflow.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
He's the person, the person.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
He had to testify against her, and that's not even
one of the most important, most fascinating things in his life, right,
which goes to show he's lived a insane life. And
I just can't wait hopefully he stays sober and hopefully,
you know, he continues doing his thing, because he looks
like he's on the right track. I just can't wait

(29:14):
till he gets cast in the next role and he
has his big Mickey Rourke comeback. Is Brendan Fraser come
back because he deserves it, and although he's done wild shit,
I am looking forward to him living a healthy life,
being a good father, being a productive citizen in society
and in Hollywood.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
Because he still looks like Charlie Sheen.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
Yeah, he looks great, and.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
The fact that he's functioning, he's someone's gonna be like, yo,
I'm gonna put him in the main role or a
supporting role, and he's gonna have his Oscar nomination or
his Emmy nomination comeback part, And I just hope he's
able to do it and stay sober.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
I did too.

Speaker 4 (29:51):
And the fact that Denise is in it.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Fuck, this documentary's got a lot the great Denise Richards.
That's her second shout out on this episode is the documentary.
And she's crying and she's very emotional and talking about
what she's been through and all the women who Charles, Charlie.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
She's doing better than everybody.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
Else, right, Brooke?

Speaker 4 (30:09):
What made her?

Speaker 1 (30:10):
No?

Speaker 3 (30:10):
Brook Brook? What's your name something? Maybe her last name? Brooke?
I don't know her name, right listen.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
I know that she's not the sober one in the crew,
or maybe just as sober. I she didn't seem sober
in the documentary.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
And right now Denise is going through a whole war
publicly with Aaron.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
Did you see that stuff? That's crazy? What's happening with them?

Speaker 4 (30:34):
What is that he took.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
The inside addition through their house all the.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
Why aren't you clean up?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Exactly?

Speaker 2 (30:42):
It's that while that you're bringing a camera crew to
see the destruction of your house and your wife.

Speaker 4 (30:48):
Instead of instead do you want to live?

Speaker 2 (30:50):
He lived downstairs with his mother and his father and
seventeen dogs or seven dogs, a ton of dogs.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
Okay, it looks like a.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
For real and you're trying to fight this case.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Publicly so he could get what get what get what he.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
Needs to get alimony.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
You may take out back from Denise Richards.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
Yeah, he needs to make her look bad so that
he was living in it too. I mean, listen, the
writing was on the wall. Yes when we saw him,
didn't we say? Remember we were watching and they.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
I didn't like it from the beginning. I was like,
something's up with this guy from the beginning. I didn't
got a.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Weird Malu clinic with his magnets and magnets and his
fake cure thisthing. No, well, then heal that basement because
it looks like shit clean.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
And you know, out of all the people that I've
interviewed on podcasts, Marisol thanked me for having her on
a couple of days afterwards, and she said how much
she appreciated it, and I was like, you know, I've
interviewed so many different people. No one thinks, no one,
you know, it's not like she needed to do this.

You're great at it. You do really well. And also
I'm kind of shy, I know you are, so like
I'm scared to meet my I don't these people I love,
Like I would freeze up totally.

Speaker 3 (32:47):
So let's it'd be.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Better if it was in person because it would disarm
me a little bit.

Speaker 3 (32:51):
