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 on the first day of December, it's Ronnie Karam. Hi, Ronnie. How's it going?
Well, hello, Benoons. How you doing, buddy?
I'm feeling refreshed and wonderful after taking a very long Thanksgiving weekend. How are you doing?
Good. I'm back in Texas, so it's good because look who is behind me. On the couch, it's Bueller sleeping. Having his little nice piglet life back there.
Look at the glorious Bueller. Living the life. Well, I'm sorry that you're in Texas because that means that tomorrow I'm going on Jeff Lewis for the first time without Ronnie because Ronnie's in Texas. I know. So I know it's crazy. But Julia Cunningham, it looks like, will be on with me. And we love, love, love, love Julia. So I'm looking forward to that. Go listen to Jeff Lewis tomorrow.
Also, I was on Morally Corrupt with Ms. Rachel Lindsay last week, so go check that out. I forgot to plug it on the show, but that was a really fun episode. Yeah, she's a good chick. So go listen to that over on her podcast, Morally Corrupt, okay?

Chapter 2: How does Stacey defend herself against accusations?
They're just like they are just they're just like the worst right now. And what's so frustrating is that they're bringing around the hottest guys ever to this show. And it's like, why can we can we get like someone who brings hot guys who's actually interesting to watch? Why? Like, why do we have to have these to be our ambassadors?
Because it's like we know if we say, OK, get rid of Kierna and Angel, we lose Bobby and Kierna's brother. That's just not fair to us.
Oh, my God, Kierna's brother. Good Lord. I wasn't expecting that. Like, happy Thanksgiving to me.
We saw him last season in a polo shirt, and he was hot then. And then this time he was like, oh, I want to show America what I'm really working with. I was like, oh, my goodness. Goodness gracious, Kierna's brother. He doesn't even have a name. He's just Kierna's brother. Wow. Wow.
Yeah, what a handsome feller. So, yeah, she's screaming, where's Timo? Where's Timo? And Stacey's like, here you go, acting a fool. She goes, oh, really? And that's a great defense mechanism. Well, what? And someone's like, well, someone here told Chris Tia, who, you know, look, I like Tia on the show.
She was a great addition and I'm never going to not like her, but I'm not liking her jumping on the bandwagon. Tia's coming a little too hard for Stacey. And I don't like it because especially later in the show where they all have the mean girls like gang up, like they're like, let's have a girl, let's have a meeting just to talk shit about Stacey. And Tia's there, you know,
lisping away with them. And I just don't, I don't like it. It's not a good look for you.
I know, it makes me very upset that Tia is on the wrong side with this one. You know, Tia's just so wonderful, but that is the mean girl side. And... It's the losing side, I would like to also add. So Stacey, so Tia's like, somebody here told Chris about what happened. And Stacey's like, well, I don't talk to Chris. Giselle's like, yeah, this one doesn't know girl code.
She's not to be trusted around husbands or children or anybody else.

Chapter 3: What is the significance of the 'girl code' debate?
Yeah, and Karen's one of the messiest people on this show. Are we forgetting? I like that Karen has gone to jail for the DUI, and everyone has elevated her to sainthood now. It's crazy. It's still Karen. Come on now. So Stacey's like, well, why don't we call the person accusing me of a lie then? And Wendy's like, oh, who can call Quiff? You know Quiff, don't you? Dun, dun, dun. Whoosh.
Hoverboard. It's me, Thatha. I'm the hoverboard. Sharice just hoverboards in from the sky. And it's like, yeah, me, Thawith. Anybody need me to be messy? Is that a pun?
Is that a pun? Yeah. the scene last week. And I remember like over the course of the week, I was like, oh, we forgot to call out that Sharice was in the scene. And then I thought, do we have to call it every single time Sharice shows up? We don't have to, but then guess what? Sharice plays a role. She's like, guess what? I am the, I am the eldest wag in the room.
So I have all the phone numbers of all the football players.
The eldest wag of all the wags. So Sharice calls, she's like, I'll call quiz. So she calls him. And, um, actually that's kind of more windy. Therese is more like this. You're like, I'll call Chris right now. So she does. And it rings and rings. And she's like, hi, Chris. This is Therese. Is that a pun?
And he's like, what can I do for you, Therese?
The cell phone is like the size of a Tic Tac in his hand. He's like, hello there. So she's like, okay, Chris.
i'm just imagining he's just like you're right i was holding it like this for chris he'd be like hello there it's like those mini microphones people use he's like i'm good what is happening i smell the blood of a housewife's fight what can i do for you
Okay, Chris, I'm good. I'm actually filming, which I know. Thank you very much. And we had a situation where Cookie was made to look bad. And I know you and Cookie are very good friends. And I just want to know if Stacey communicated with you about a conversation that was had about Monique. That's it. Yes and no, Chris. Yes and no. So he pauses, or at least they make it seem like he pauses.

Chapter 4: How does Giselle react to Stacey's presence at the party?
Yeah. I sold a camel sweater today. Fuck me in every orifice.
Let's go.
yeah well then yeah so i mean i kind of feel like sort of with the logic of like this is not really how i believe what i think but part of me feels like if you're going to use the logic that these women are using then what sharice what were you and stacy doing that going out with two married men in the first place you know like i think they were just talking to people at the bar right because she just said they were with like i mean i'm assuming that they were just people they were talking to at a bar
Now, that being said, I do fully believe that the Stacey who's on camera is very different than the one when the cameras are off. And I love that for her.
It's time for a commercial. It's time for a Krappens commercial.
So Wendy is like, Stacey is talking to Wendy to be like, can you get me together and everything? And Wendy's like, oh, she's like, oh girl, they had you up on the ropes, girl. Like you were up on the ropes. She goes, oh my God, put Vaseline on my eyes. Please do this. Oh wow, you were really on the ropes.
Put it on my knuckles. And so, you know, then we cut back to Greg and Greg's like, no one spoke to me, everybody. I got a little jealous. And Jazzy's like, well, we spoke to you. We said, there's Greg, remember? And then we just decided to keep arguing. So sorry about that, but we are working. Okay. So then Vivian.
I wonder how Greg feels, by the way, going to this party. And it's like, you know, the men always have to stand by the side and watch their women fight. And it's just like, Greg? And then you got Darius and Bobby. He's like flanked. I mean, I kind of feel like Greg has the energy of someone. He sort of has that, like,
Napoleon energy of someone who's trying to exert power on his women because he feels like inadequate in other parts of his life. And I can't imagine that standing between two giant football players made him feel any better about himself.

Chapter 5: What happens during the confrontation between Stacey and Kierna?
I said it. I did that.
wendy's like she wants to have a problem and so now wendy and stacy are both saying like giselle said it and then we see footage of giselle saying it so wendy's like okay instead of you coming for giselle it's me that you want to come for and angel's like well me and giselle had a conversation and this is just another example of you being dismissive angel you literally walked into a conversation and put yourself you you did a self-fulfilling prophecy
You went into a conversation, put yourself in a position where she would dismiss you, and then you got mad that she dismissed you.
Yeah. You came up with a court case that was dismissed. You came up with a dismissible case. Okay. If you don't want to be dismissed, then stop being dismissible. Get some evidence, ma'am. So Wendy's like, no, this isn't another example of you falling flat. And just like, oh, Wendy's coming out. And so Angel's like, well, I'm done. Thank you. I don't choose to engage. You started it.
You literally chose to engage.
I know. Wendy's like, you're saying no thank you as if we want you here, girl. And she goes, it's fine.
Kierna's like, are we still having the same chat?
Oh, I know, Kierna, you're not the one who's going to be complaining about the same storylines coming up again. Should we go back to two seasons ago where you spent an entire season talking about how no one paid attention to you while you had diarrhea?
Oh, listen up, Scarface. So she's like, here comes her Siamese twin. Get on the piggyback. Get on her back. And I only say Scarface because I don't see a scar. So I don't know where that thing is, but I still haven't seen it. No, Scarface. Even more damning. Listen up, Al Pacino.

Chapter 6: How do the housewives react to the shrimp cocktail spread?
not maybe, is facing serious shelter. So Stacey's like, well, I pushed the button already. Well, I'm pushing it too. I'm pushing the button. No, I'm pushing the button. No, I'm pushing the button. I'm pushing it. I'm pushing it. I'm pushing it. So Giselle's like, I don't like what I've heard and I need to marinate on it. Okay.
So you could also just stop talking about it and let Stacey do her own thing at the party and you can marinate later tonight, but that's fine.
Yeah. So Stacey and Jazzy get in the elevator and leave. And meanwhile, Angel goes to Bobby, who's just like sitting there being hot, you know, and she's like, well, I told you I was going to say something to her. And she was nasty and she was dismissive. She was not nasty. She was dismissive. But I mean.
She was not nasty. She was dismissive with, and we, according to Ben and Ronnie say, you know, we rule in favor of the dismissive. Yeah. I love that. We dismiss you and we are, we sustain the dismissiveness. Yeah. Sustained. Exactly.
So Bobby goes, Bobby goes, water off the duck back, mama. I'm sorry. Was that dismissive? That was dismissive.
That's dismissive. He's kind of like, you need to stop. He's like, remember what I told you last episode when I crossed my legs for America? You need to just chill out while I'm saying it to you again. Water off a duck's back.
Yeah, so now they're doing more cheers to Giselle's 10 million. And then it's time to catch up with the ladies. The party's over. So Stacey is with... Arabella, we're going to make some pizza. She's like, do you want pepperoni or would you like my favorite flavor? You are alone enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody. God, I love that topping.
I was so proud of you, baby. You did so well. The first race that you won, how did you feel? Like, did you know that you were that much ahead of the other people? She's like, yeah. Sure did. So then Timo joins them, and Arabella's like, I literally tried my hardest, but we were only a second away. Oh, that's too bad. It's so funny.
I remember when I was your age, I always won all of my swim meets. Oh, well. Okay, Timo, welcome back to the pizza party.

Chapter 8: How does the episode conclude with Stacey's reflections?
I
Yeah, we're all not home making things for our like little charcuterie things when the girls come over. But there's a better way to do it. Like let's have some art in this. You know what I mean? Go to the buffet section and like get little containers of things and then place them beautifully. Why are you just unwrapping cookies from the store and throwing them on a dish? That's –
Yeah. Like we see you, this is a Bravo audience. You're going to have to like really up your game here. Okay. Go to whole foods. Like stop, stop going to Albertsons for this. You need to go to like something like nicer, go to whole foods, go to like, if you have a, I don't know what the nice ones are out there in Potomac, but go there, have them just do it for you.
But like you're a wag and you're on Bravo. Like you have to do better than this spread. I'm sorry, angel. And this has nothing to do with my feelings about you as a cast member, but it doesn't help relatively low. It doesn't help though. Yeah. It doesn't help.
So Angel's like, I have an announcement, everybody. I think I found the house that I'm going to buy. Wow. Isn't that great? Everyone's like, oh, great. Well, rich lady's getting a house. Congratulations. And she's like, oh, it's so move-in ready. And that's a big difference. Yeah. It has nine bedrooms. Nine. It's a little big, but we can deal with that. God. Big house. I have a filter room.
It's just a big room full of Vaseline. I just take all my pictures in there.
We're going to put in each bedroom, we're going to put a W, A, or a G. So it'll say wag, wag, wag, because there's nine bedrooms. So that's nine letters. It's going to be great.
And she's like, someone asked where her kids are at. And she's like, hold on. Let me get my binoculars. Oh, it's just that this property is just so vast. Hold on. Let me see if I can see them. Oh, I can't see them. Oh, stop acting like you live in Yellowstone National Park, for Christ's sake.
I know. Pull your binoculars and try to find Bobby down by the river. She just wants to, like, she wants to just brag again that she lives by the river. He must be down by the river, which we all care about. I'm by the river, guys.
