We are not doing Southern Charm this week because it's Thanksgiving. And, you know, we've been going pretty strong for the past two weeks with BravoCon and everything. And we were like, you know what? I think it's okay if we don't podcast on Thanksgiving. So we will, of course, bring back Southern Charm next week. And we will, you know, sort of do a high level recap of what happened.

0

98.272 - 110.169 Ben Mandelker

We'll sort of touch on what happened this week. But if you're wondering where the Southern Charm recap is, it's going to be in all of our heads. Yeah, it's nowhere. That's where it is. It's dead. We killed it.

0

110.509 - 121.045 Unknown

But we do have a Dwell Hello, and we have a trailer trash for the new show, The Valley Persian Style, coming out. And also next week, we have another programming update. Yeah, big one.

We will be adding... Married to Medicine to the Rotation, which begins on November 30th.

127.974 - 146.017 Ben Mandelker

We haven't recapped it for a couple seasons, but we will be back this season. Yes, we are fully embracing our Married to Medicine roots. I mean, we started off back when this show started, our show started, we were, you know, Married to Medicine was brand new and we were recapping it back then and we're coming back to it. So marriage medicine back in the rotation.

Also, I just want to say, um, dwell. Hello. It's our final dwell. Hello. So go listen to it. It was, it also happened to be one of our favorite house hunters episodes of all time to watch.

0

Chapter 4: What drama unfolds between Kizzy, Max, and Kathy?

156.831 - 179.144 Ben Mandelker

So it was so perfect. Thanks again to our Patreon premium supporter, Jill Hirsch for finding that episode for us. Thanks to everyone who over the past three years, uh, submitted recommendations for Dwell Hello. It's been so fun recapping those episodes. We're just putting it on pause. It's indefinite hiatus just to, you know, just to give ourselves a little bit of a break on that front.

0

179.164 - 187.418 Unknown

It's actually five years. You know that, right? Because we did it two years before Wondery as well. It's just been three years. Three years of like a regular schedule of it.

0

187.478 - 187.819 Ben Mandelker

Yeah.

0

188.558 - 211.192 Unknown

Yeah, but I just wanted to also give a quick shout out to Joey Taranto from the I Think Not A True Crime Comedy Podcast. Because he's a new friend. I just met him through Matt Marr of The Reality Gaze. But I went to see him this weekend at the La Jolla Playhouse in Working Girl, a new Cyndi Lauper musical. And it was pretty great. It was pretty awesome to see it. And JoJo played Working Girl.

0

211.392 - 220.684 Unknown

That's so cool. She played Melanie Griffith. That's so cool. It was amazing. It was like watching Cyndi Lauper in Working Girl. Like they wrote it kind of for Cyndi Lauper. I mean, Cyndi Lauper wrote it.

221.364 - 222.606 Ben Mandelker

Working Girls just want to have fun.

223.747 - 235.379 Unknown

Yeah. Yeah. And it was so good. You know, it's a new musical, so they're still working stuff out. But it was so good. He was so good. It was so great to meet him. What a bundle of energy that guy is. So thanks for that. Go see it if you can. It's probably sold out.

235.6 - 236.28 Ben Mandelker

Please tell me.

236.32 - 236.481 Unknown

Wow.

Chapter 5: How does Aisha react to Kizzy's behavior?

237.061 - 241.566 Ben Mandelker

Please tell me. Was there a dance number with Dim Sum Carts?

0

242.947 - 262.245 Unknown

There weren't dim sum carts, but they moved the desks around for numbers like dim sum carts, if that makes any sense. And people danced on them and stuff. I mean, I was disappointed there wasn't a psoriasis number because that's my favorite commercial of the past decade. I'm Cyndi Lauper, and I've got psoriasis. And I really wanted them to work that in.

0

262.726 - 275.788 Ben Mandelker

They didn't, but it was still fabulous. Well, that sounds great. I'm going to give some shout outs too, because it's Thanksgiving week. We're giving thanks. If you want to listen to this recap, just fast forward five minutes. Yeah, just fast forward. You got the button. I don't care.

0

275.768 - 305.708 Ben Mandelker

my first shout out is oh shout out to the Washington Post for including us in their article about Bravo content creators so go check that out on Washington Post also a shout out to me for writing a Thanksgiving guide it's on my NBD fancy I'm not really giving myself a shout out I'm just trying to thematically link this in shout out to me really I released an NBD fancy speaking of psoriasis

0

305.688 - 328.837 Ben Mandelker

I released an NBD fancy column today on my sub stack. And I mentioned that because it's all about Thanksgiving and how to do some, what I call low lift Thanksgiving, which was like easy Thanksgiving things or how to organize yourself. So if you're in need of that, I wrote a whole schedule, how you could organize your Thanksgiving to hopefully make it go as smoothly as possible.

329.077 - 338.113 Ben Mandelker

Easier said than done. I'm aware that, But go check that out. It's nvdfancy.substack.com. And I'd like to give an anti-shoutout, a reverse shoutout.

Chapter 6: What is Nathan's backstory and its impact on his relationships?

338.795 - 343.123 Unknown

No, don't you dare. Don't you dare come for Wicked. I know what you're about to do.

0

343.143 - 343.203 Ben Mandelker

No.

0

343.324 - 344.286 Unknown

Don't you do it.

0

345.528 - 370.129 Ben Mandelker

No, the Wicked has a perfectly fine shoutout. I'm giving an anti- Anti shout out to the lady who brought her five, four, like five, three and four year olds to a 7 p.m. viewing of Wicked and sat right next to us. What the hell happened? So last night we went to Wicked. This has nothing to do with Below Deck. It has nothing to do with Bravo, but it needs to be said on a platform.

0

370.169 - 391.744 Ben Mandelker

I'm using the platform for good right now. So Dom and I- Crappens for good. Plus 50. Yeah. Honestly, this is crappens for good. Plus 15 seconds on your podcast app, everyone. Don't forget that button is there. Plus 15 seconds. That means five minutes. Yeah. Just hit that a few times until all of a sudden you're, eh, wow, look at that wind. So- Dom and I went to see Wicked for Good last night.

391.764 - 402.896 Ben Mandelker

We went to a seven o'clock showing and we went to this movie theater that's on, there's a movie theater that's on Crescent Heights and Sunset, which is semi-indie. It used to be an indie theater, then became an AMC and now it's a Lambert.

402.916 - 407.4 Unknown

You went to see it at that place? Why would you do that? You need to go to a big, nice screen.

407.621 - 428.214 Ben Mandelker

Have you been to the Grove lately? Have you, like, this episode of Below Deck Med is, it's called, like, the actual name of it is called something about peasants. It's like peasants. You have a guy on this Below Deck Med. calling people on the boat peasants. If you go to the AMC at the Grove, you find the real peasants. Okay. Those are the people who are on there with their phones.

428.354 - 446.18 Ben Mandelker

They're having conversations. They're texting. It's like a nightmare. You cannot watch movies there anymore. So I was like, let me go. We're going to go to this smaller theater where, which is actually pretty good. It's a pretty nice theater, but like, it's a little bit more quote unquote, like adult, not like adult to triple X. Like they're just like more adults that go there.

Chapter 7: How do the crew members handle romantic tensions?

492.663 - 507.345 Ben Mandelker

They made so much noise. The kids were running around the theater left and right. They were running, running like a playground. It was in it was actually legitimately insane. So a big anti shout out to this woman. Like, why are you bringing kids at seven o'clock at night?

0

507.525 - 509.288 Unknown

How did you not Karen out in there?

0

509.649 - 511.131 Ben Mandelker

Why would you not Karen out?

0

511.191 - 518.462 Unknown

We move seats to a. Oh, I'm going to move right to the manager station and wave my finger around. You know what? It would have been a bad look if I did that.

0

518.502 - 519.784 Ben Mandelker

I'll just I'll just leave it at that.

519.764 - 527.116 Unknown

Who cares? It's a bad look to have your damn kids running up and down the thing. I would have tripped those little fuckers. Pulled out my dick and started flicking it at them.

527.136 - 551.574 Ben Mandelker

But who's going to bring a series of three and four and five year olds to a two and a half hour movie at seven o'clock on a Monday that features some kind of scary elements like the flying monkeys and the big Oz mask and a witch and all that. I was like... I'm not that the kids cared because they were talking the whole time, but anyway. Oh my gosh.

551.755 - 553.597 Unknown

Death to those parents.

554.058 - 577.668 Ben Mandelker

Horrible. Horrible. Thank you everyone for allowing me the space to let that out. I understand that rant was not in the spirit of the little PSA that happened before the movie where Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo stood hand in hand and said, We hope you enjoy. We've arrived at the end of our journey with Wicked, but we hope you still enjoy it and you can be friends like the way we're friends.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of Joe's past relationship on his current situation?

678.661 - 678.881 Unknown

Oh, God.

0

679.482 - 699.33 Ben Mandelker

Unpeasant. Yeah. So where we last left off, Kizzy was making it with Max, despite the fact that Kathy was like, I'm going to make it with Max tonight. But Kizzy, you know, she always has to be number one. She has to be in the spotlight. So she goes after Max. And Kathy is just watching, and she's just very disappointed.

0
0

700.175 - 717.855 Unknown

I mean, here's my problem with Kizzy. You know, I get she's competitive and she always wants to be number one. And she seems to be very self-aware of what she's doing, you know, because she she narrowates what an asshole she is through the whole thing. But get better goals. You know what I mean? It's like when she when she's like, I always win.

0

717.915 - 730.778 Unknown

I'm always winning and I will never stop until I win. I'm like, you're holding a you're like literally holding a toilet scrub right now. And then, you know, the other thing she's like fighting to win is like you won max. You won fucking max.

731.279 - 751.39 Ben Mandelker

Like, dude, get better goals. You're so sad. Well, that's why she's grumpy. That's why she's grumpy the second half of the episode because she realizes- She like, like has, there's like no one to pull from. Like she literally, she, she thought she was like the one, all the guys were like, you know, slobbering after her. And then she just wound up with Max. That was the best she could do.

751.47 - 768.674 Ben Mandelker

Although she did sneak a kiss in with Nathan ultimately. But also this sort of, this cast is not really the cast where there's like the cool guy. There's no like quarterback, you know, there's no college quarterback that you're trying to get with. Nathan's the closest thing to it, but like, You know, we all think that Gary is disgusting. Gary is like the worst, whatever.

768.834 - 782.94 Ben Mandelker

But like on his seasons, he was definitely like the alpha male that was like, you know, for people like the Kizzy's and the Ashley's. It was like, if you got with Gary, it was some sort of like, like you somehow got elevated in their minds, but there's not really anyone like that on this season.

783.28 - 788.029 Unknown

So it's like, okay, you could have like, it was like the best kind of herpes. It was like the manliest kind of herpes.
