All of the Bravo PR machine is going to get behind trying to make sure that the launch of this new show is very successful.

And right before that, they had this scandal for Summer House, which, you know, yeah, everyone's talking about it, but it definitely takes away the energy and attention from its other shows.

And I think they would have definitely preferred them to wait at least a week, is my understanding.

So yeah, I think Bravo was involved, but I definitely think that Amanda and West really drove this decision.

What I'm most fascinated about is what compelled them to create such urgency and make them feel like filing a joint statement made the most sense.

And we've heard these alleged rumors about a video or these receipts.

Before TMZ reported on it, I had heard stuff that stuff exists.

And so to me, I think we can all agree that this joint statement didn't make a lot of sense.

And usually when you make decisions that don't make sense, it's often because you're rushed to make a decision and you don't know what the right decision is.

And it's like, this is the best of the worst decisions we have available to us, et cetera, et cetera.

But I feel like there had to have been something that pushed Amanda and Wes to feel like we got to speak on this because we would rather have people...

hear it from us than, say, a receipt gets sent, you know, like the same way we found out about Taylor Frankie Paul.

Like, you know, once a video is out there and people can start writing their own narrative, I just wonder if this decision of a joint statement was centered around feeling pushed into that by something or someone.

And it'll be interesting to see how it shifts.

To your point, Danny, that will be interesting.

Because like right now, Sierra is the person who has our empathy, our support.

That's the person we, it seems clear is the most wronged here, right?

And then the question is, what, if anything, will cause the audience to have like Sierra support fatigue?

Right?

Because that's what it comes down to, right?
