Speaker 1 (00:03):
Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
favorite shows from the Real House Boss of Atlanta, New
Jersey and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise
and Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from
the Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset,

(00:27):
in addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space
or scripted as well.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Hey, rain Drops, sorry for the late the late recap
garleague on the Real house Bosher Worts County. As my
rain Drops know, I recently celebrated a birthday. Thank you
very much. Yes father, applause, Thank you so effects. All right,
so check this out. I'm back from my amazing birthday weekend.

(01:03):
But I doing this episode solo because my girl, my friend,
my co host for the Real Housewives of Orange County Recap,
Alexis Doleno, got married Friday, October third. Shout out to
me and girls, Gretchen and it's a if you're a
mean Girls fanatic, you know October third is a staple,

(01:26):
but it's now another staple because Alexis Bleno and John
are officially married, so this Friday we get to hear
all about it from Alexis herself, So congratulations. Alexis is
not on this episode because she is too busy celebrating

(01:47):
her marriage and honeybow, So congratulations to Alexis and John.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
All right, we need.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
To get to this episode of the real house Washing
Forts County. This US an amazing one. And let me
tell you why, Tama Judge, these ladies are not your
friends friends.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
How many of them have them friends? Yes, that's means rapping.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Okay, So in this episode, we need to go backwards
in order to understand what happened moving forward. So Shannon
and Heather are hanging out and Shannon pretty much tells
Heather how Gina was talking about her doing improv and

(02:41):
doing eat improv being a comedic actress, and how no
one's taking this seriously because the only person they can
see doing improv is Terry Debro, which, listen, I agree,
Heather de Bro does not give me comedy, she gives
me a steper wife. I feel like Heather de Bro

(03:04):
could have been a great addition to Desperate Housewives. She
has a little bit of Terry Hatcher in her, That's
what she gives. She's not a comedic actress. She's no
Amy Schumer, she's no Monique the actress comedian. She's no
Sarah Silverman, she's not even phoebe Off her friends. So

(03:32):
for heap of the Bro to think that, it's not
normal for anybody, whether it's her friends or the audience
to think and question, yeah, we know that you're an actress.
We saw the IMDb page. Okay, got it.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Comedy.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
I'm sorry, I'm a gene on this one. I don't
think she's funny. When I look at him de Bro,
I don't see funny. I see a step for wife.
I see Daria from the MTV show. Half of de
Bro is the human version of the animated teen sitcom Daria.

(04:19):
And if you watch the show, you know that Daria
has this dry system of humor. Everything about her is dry,
including her bangs and the lands or her eyewear.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Have the bro.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
If you look at the animated sched she looks like Daria.
So Daria Debro wants us to believe that she's a
stand up comic. And I'm standing up thinking like do
I need to throw tomatoes at the situation. I don't
understand why she is upset that no one considers her funny.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
I don't think she's funny. And Gina tooth it.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
That's what the kids said. So when they say you ate,
that was you chewed? So Ray drops. I know a
lot of us are over forty, but we're gonna start
saying the words the kids say. So the new word
is chewed.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
Honey.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Okay, so Gina chewed when she said, like, who told
Heather bro she was funny?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
The associates at Burgdor she ate that one.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
I don't understand why Heather is so upset that no
one thinks she's funny.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
She doesn't crack jokes. She's very deadpanned, she's there's nothing
funny about her.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Like, she's very serious. She's she's kind of like, you know,
you know, I'm not trying to say that, I'm trying
to be nice. She's one of those people that just
has like.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
This very.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
Strong sense of self.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
Like she she's sort of just she's a tight ass,
you know, and listen, I know that may not sound right,
but I just don't think she's she's rigidly.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Like conventional, she's rigidly straight slaced. She's a rigidly inhibited person.
Maybe those are the words we can use, but none
of those words have the words comedian following it. I
just don't think she's funny, but rain drops, let me
know the comments. Do you think she's funny? I don't

(06:46):
think she's funny. I think she's a beautiful woman, an
accomplished woman, a great mother, a great wife.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
There's there's tons of things she's are funny.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Is not one of them? Is repressed On the flip side,
And I'm being real here, I think Shannon's funny. I
think Shannon has moments of funny, Like you know, she
makes me laugh sometimes. I would say she's funny, But Heather,

(07:20):
go bro, there's there's absolutely nothing funny about her. I
think Gina is hysterical, hysterical, funny, not too much, not
so much.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
There you go. So that happened, So listen. Once Shannon told.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Heather what Gina said and how tam was involved with it,
then all of you know, all of that went to
shit when they all came to Tama's house to make cake. Okay, Now,
before that happened, Emily tells Tamra that, look, I just
want to tell you to your face what I said
to you behind your back, which I thought, you know,

(08:05):
kudos to Emily for doing that.

Speaker 3 (08:07):
She's like, look, I don't trust you.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
When it comes to who we trust the most of
the least in this group, it's you. Now, look, I
will say this, Tamarra is great for the show. I
at least understand why they would come to that conclusion
if they're looking at it through the lens of like,
not how Tamar treated them, but maybe if they feel like, Okay, Tamar,

(08:33):
you did this to Shannon. You know, we all agree
that last season Tamar was not the nicest to Shannon,
and how Tamar was pretty much telling the world and
the girls about Shannon's situation, that's understandable.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
The problem is Emily and Heather.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Aren't saying that may be part of the reason that Look,
when Shannon was at her lowest, we understand she was
not the best friend to you, but we do feel
like when she was down, you added to it barbarabuilding stuff,
and that to me is way more understandable.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
If we're keeping it fair, and if we're keeping it
a buck that makes sense. That's fair.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
And I was waiting for them to say it, because
when they said it, I knew it had nothing to
do with what Tamara did to them, because Tamara never
did anything to Heather or to Emily to them that
would lose the trust that they may have had. Heather
and Emily, in my opinion, saw how Tamara treated Shannon,

(09:44):
although in Tama's defense, Shannon treated Tama like shit when
she got fired from the show and she did not
want to be friends with her anymore. Now it Shannon's defense, Yes,
the things that tam were saying was not right.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
At all, and it was hurtful. Now and both of their.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
The fifth they both apologize to each other, but unfortunately
Heather and Emily are.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
In are there, they.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
Don't have the ability to really tell Tamar what it is.
Maybe they did, they cut it out. I don't think
they would edit that out, because that to me gives
logical sense. And I understand why Tamer's upset because she's like,
I did nothing to you guys, And Tamra is right.
She did nothing to Emily, and she did absolutely nothing

(10:43):
to Heather. She did it, and that's why I am
on Tamar's side when it comes to this. If I'm
saying to you, I don't trust you, I will always
take that as what did this person do to me,
not what did this person do to somebody else?

Speaker 3 (11:03):
And I think we got to give Tamara some slack
with that.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
Now half of them was on a rampage, so being
you know, have us alter ego, honey, Daria.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
De Boro child So Darna Debro confronts I can't think this.
Daria Debro confronts.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Gina about all the things she said about her, and
baby Gina stood up for herself. I loved it. Gina
and her blazer that she wanted to shoulder and her
top knot hairstyle. She looked cute and she got her
together and she stood up for herself. And one of
my favorite parts about that scene was the fact that

(11:47):
Gina called out Heather for exactly who she is. Your
confrontational only when it comes to me, only when it
comes to me, but when it comes to the other girls.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
And she's right about it.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
She's right about it because even when Tamar confronted her,
heathern tried to like defend herself, but she lost the
battle because she was she did not do a good
job at explaining her truth. That's why Gina clocked it.
Heather looks at Gina like, I can get you together
because I'm not scared of you. I do believe that

(12:29):
Heather is scared of Tamera one thousand percent. And that's
when Tama's confused because she's like, I'm thinking for really friends?
So is this a friendship of convenience or is this
a friendship of fear? And I think if you really
dissect their friendship, Heather is only friends with Tamar because

(12:49):
she feels like, let me keep my enemies closer. I
don't want to be on Tamar's bad side because Heather feels,
in my opinion, that she will be on the receiving
end of Tama's wrath if they fall out. That's what
it is, and I think deep down inside Tamara knows that,

(13:09):
which is why she got emotional, which is why she's
threatened to quit the show, which is why she told
Heather have a great season.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
She's over it.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
And then to know that Jen followed the producer that
she allegedly was in the studio with, making out like
that's gross. I love me some jin, that's foul. And
I'm with the girls too, like why do you have
to follow the guy just DM him to get the info?
It made no sense. But once again Katie gets her

(13:43):
ass handed to her for following bloggers and telling them information.
Jen now did the same thing. But nobody is trying
to ostracize Jim from the show. They wait, they did Katie.
And even when Tama brought up how she wants to

(14:03):
meet with Katie, Emily really showed what a mean girl
she is.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
Emily is a mean girl. I never thought this until now.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Emily is an elitist. So her new name is Emily
be Elitist. We got Daria Debro and Emily be Elitist.
So when Tam was like, look, I want to be
able to meet with Katie because now that Gretchen is
on this rampage just spuming lives about me, she I

(14:36):
want to know what she said about me allegedly drugging her.
Emily got all upset, like, you're gonna talk to the
person someone who came against my children? What the fuck
did Katie do to go against her children? That whole
nanny bullshit isn't a big deal. I actually believe that

(14:58):
Emily for sure talks shit about Heather for her kids.
Ninety percent of parents do it. They may not do
it intentionally, They could be in the kitchen making dinner,
the kids in the living room doing homework, watching Darnia
Debro on the television screen, and then all of a

(15:18):
sudden they overhear their mother talks shit about their female friend.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
That's what happens.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
It's life. It's not the end of the world. Emily's
reaction to Tamra meeting with Katie, I'm gonna tell you
what it was. Emily was mad because she felt like
we got Katie off the show and now Tamara is
working to get her back on it. That's exactly what
that seems about. They had nothing to do with.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Oh my gosh, you're talking to someone who came against
my children.

Speaker 3 (15:49):
You're talking to someone who called Gina a rasist. Emily,
shut up.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
It's different what Katie did to you when it came
to telling on you about how you talked about Heather
in front of your children, versus Gretchen allegedly saying that
Tamra drugged her. It's apples and oranges. It's subway sandwiches.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
And cake.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
If you watch the show, you know that Emily had
a subway sandwich in the sauner And if you watched
it this recent episode they made cake. That's the reason
why I've made the connection. Thank you very much. Nonetheless,
Emily's an elitist. Emily does now wan cat on the show,

(16:48):
and tam I'm meeting with her what they all are doing.
And Tamra knows this, She knows that none of these
girls are my friends. And Tamra, I'm telling you based
on when I'm saying these girls.

Speaker 3 (17:01):
Don't like you.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
You clocked it when you told Heather you don't like me. Tamara,
I'm telling you right now, Daria Debro does not like you.
She's only friends with you because she would rather be
your friend than your enemy. And I'm want to drop

(17:24):
the mic right there, but rain drops, let me know
what you think of comments. Do you think Daria Debro
is really friends with Tamar because she likes her or
because she's afraid of going against her? Let me on
