Hello, and welcome to Watch What Crap Is, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. I'm Ben Mandelker, and joining me today is the one, the only, the wonderful Ronnie Karam. Hi, Ronnie, how are you? Well, hello, Ben. Well, hello.
Chapter 2: How do the ladies express their support for Britani?
We are here today to recap Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. This is an episode that Andy Cohen said at BravoCon was maybe his favorite of the season, so we'll discuss that.
It's one of the best- Housewives episodes of all time, guys. Whoa.
Whoa. I said, whoa. I do not believe you. I know how to believe that guy. And sure enough, it wasn't a shitty episode, but it wasn't the best. You can't have Salt Lake City and be like, it's the best episode of all time. I mean, come on. You have to be careful.
I think that he was maybe caught off guard with that question. Andy Cohen said, someone had asked him during Ask Andy or whatever, what is like, what's one of the best episodes of all time or whatever, something like that. Name an episode. And he said, wow, wow, so many episodes. Well, I can say that the episode of Salt Lake City coming up next is one of the best.
Chapter 3: What happens during the church scene with Mary?
So I think he was like, he wasn't sure. And he was like, okay, whatever. I'll just like, I'll hype up the next Salt Lake City episode. I think that's purely where it came from. Makes sense.
You know, today we're talking about Salt Lake City, but come join us on Patreon, patreon.com slash watch for crap-ins, weekly bonus episodes, crap-ins on demand, where you can watch us on video for a week before it goes out to YouTube. And we have Discord community and all those other fun things. So join us over there. Every other week, we do crappy hour.
We had a real humdinger of a crappy hour this week because the two judgy girls, Courtney and Mary, joined us And we traded BravoCon stories and talked about some of the gossip that was happening. We had a huge amount of fun. Go check that out on your feeds. And then we alternate that with Amazon Live. And so we've got an Amazon Live coming up this Monday, which is good timing.
It's right ahead of Black Friday. So we'll be weighing in on who knows what.
Chapter 4: What are the dynamics of Heather and Whitney's friendship?
And then we just are, you know, just that's it. Actually, that's all that there is to really promote. So let's get back to this. The best ever episode of Salt Lake City. I will say this. I thought it was a very good episode and it was a good change of pace. You know, the past three episodes on this yacht have been sort of at like a certain level of like insanity.
So it's good to have a grounded episode. So I did appreciate that quite a bit. I also felt like it was a lost opportunity for Bravo and NBC to air. Is it a lost opportunity to air or a lost opportunity to not air? They should have shown this at BravoCon. I actually think they should have shown this episode.
And the reason why is because the way that it ends with Mary preaching and you sort of have this church, take me to church moment. That's so big. I think it would have been a special moment for,
Chapter 5: How does the group react to Meredith and Lisa's arrival?
If you had this airing in that giant hall with like a thousand people, and I think they all would have been cheering. And as Mary's up there at the pulpit and she's feeling the Holy Spirit and she's doing call and response from the audience, I think the Bravo audience would have responded. I think it would have been a very special moment.
And I think that they need to think about doing those things more.
Well, I think that that would have been fun to see the church scene there. I think it's great that it came out the same week that Mary's cult video was announced. TLC, Mary runs a cult video. And then they showed this return to church. But also this episode to me felt a little bit like political season, like the season where the presidential hopefuls are arguing.
Because I really feel like Heather and Whitney are working very hard to get Meredith and Lisa out. And this was like them holding a rally kind of. And it's kind of when I'm not on the same side as all my friends in a rally where I'm like, no. You lying political sacks of poop. You are not getting rid of my presidents, Lisa and Meredith. I will not stand for it. I will not stand for this coup.
And I think that's what they're doing.

Chapter 6: What insights do the hosts share about the characters' relationships?
So it just pissed me off. And everyone's like, oh, my God, poor Britney. Britney is not a victim. I refuse to sit here and take Britney as a victim. I'm not swallowing that. I'm not swallowing it. And I'm not buying it, show. I'm not buying it.
Yeah, I have to say I was a little dubious about the Brittany and Jared scene. It was fun to watch, but like, I don't know. I got the sense that they were reciting lines a little bit. I hate to say, I just, there was something about it that just did not feel authentic. But then again, not a Jared and Braymate scene. I know. Right. But it was definitely an episode of like, look at the look here.
Here's some conversations between people who have problems in their marriages. And the funniest one of course was Todd and Bronwyn only because that furniture, I don't, I don't think we noticed how wacky Bronwyn's living room has become because I mean, it's just like some sort of Alice in Wonderland gumdrop phantasmagoria that's happening in there.
Chapter 7: What challenges do Bronwyn and Todd face in their relationship?
And they're having a conversation about, you know, infidelity while Todd is sliding off the striped couch. It was hilarious to me.
Yeah. Her house has always been cray cray. That's for sure. She's very much drag queen energy. And I feel like she's appropriating drag culture because, A, how she dresses. And then I was watching some of the Bravo clips, the BravoCon clips. And there was one where she was on the stage and Britney was like, ding, ding, ding. You know, she was trying to do a ding, ding, ding.
And they were like, who's the meanest?
person on your i mean whatever you know she whatever shady question it was it was bronwyn and bronwyn was in this huge puffy polka dot dress which i'm sure you've seen and uh looking crazy but also very pretty she looked great and um she's like oh oh britney i'm so glad i made you relevant like her she just does this affected like lady from the 50s voice where she's like
I'm so glad I made you relevant. And everyone's like, yes, girl. And she's just going on and on in this kind of drag queen affectation. And I don't know, man, I'm just not I'm just not buying it. Now, that said, not buying it does not mean I don't enjoy being in the store. because I think she's doing a great job frustrating the hell out of me.
And I also like how she kind of, she's pretty good at manipulating the audience, I have to say. I feel like everyone believes her and I'm believing her less and less. Like this whole Todd scene I felt was very, listen, you're married to a grumpy old man, okay?
he doesn't want to film he doesn't want to talk about his sex life he doesn't want to do that stuff now we can have the argument of the man agreed to be on the show but i think he agreed to do it as long as she didn't do all this stuff that she's doing like talking about the sex life and this and that he's visibly just uncomfortable and does not want to be there he's like a giant five-year-old sitting there pouting like oh god now we have to talk about our sex life with these people leave me alone i'm not eating my broccoli i don't want my broccoli
I don't want it.
He is visibly uncomfortable. And, again, part of that is that he's, like, in his, like, L.L.

Chapter 8: How does the episode conclude with the church gathering?
Bean jeans and, like, you know, his Van Heusen shirt, button-down shirt, while, like, sitting in the middle of the Beetlejuice house.
But, like, he's like, just get me to my Starbucks mug collection.
But, yeah, he's definitely uncomfortable. I think Bronwyn did great at BravoCon. I think the clip that you're talking about is where Brittany was like, Bronwyn, I think your costume looks great. It's like fashion. Oh, baby girl, baby girl. I have new, I have new couture and you still have the same old line.
That's, and I'm just so glad that I gave you that line because it's your same old tired line, baby girl, that you brought up every single time, baby girl.
And Brittany's just like, that's so funny.
Bronwyn had a lot of good reads. She also, I just saw right before this, someone was like, I'm so disappointed that Bronwyn took a picture with Gretchen. And Bronwyn responded by saying, like she had walked into a room, I guess. I don't know if she took a picture with Gretchen or around Gretchen. I don't know what it was.
They were in the same signing area. You know how they go to those signing events or whatever. And they were next to them. So they took a picture. And by the way, whatever you're about to say is going to be truncated, thankfully, because it's a page long because Bronwyn can't just like have a two line thing. You know, this is why Twitter has used to have character limits. But go ahead. Go ahead.
You know, basically she said, yeah, I made sure I was like, like move to a different room or different space. She's like, I'm not going to be around that. So, you know what? I applaud her. She, you know, she basically was like, I don't stand with that garbage.
So, yeah.
