Shownotes Transcript
One of the reasons we love watching Bravo shows is for the luxury. I mean, come on, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Most of the time I can just watch it for the shots of the gorgeous city and the houses. And let's not forget Lisa Barlow's $60,000 ring that she lost. Oh, heck yeah.
If you're looking for a way to experience luxury for yourself, try Virgin Voyages. Over $1,000 in value is included in every sailing. Everything they offer, from their menus created by Michelin star chefs to their cabins designed by top international firms, is the pinnacle of luxury.

Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. I'm Ben Mandelker and joining me today for what I'm sure will be a very exciting blow deck down under recap, Ronnie Karam. Hi, Ronnie. Hi. How are you doing today?
What a day. I mean, when you think this show can't give you a twist and a turn, I didn't see that coming at all on Below Deck Med. Did not see it coming. Not at all. You even told me because you'd seen it before me. You said, oh, there was a twist. And I was like, oh, okay. And I was like, I got caught up in it. So I sort of forgot that there was a twist, but I still was kind of scoping it out. And like, that was just not a twist I saw at all.
I thought like maybe the twist, maybe the twist was going to be that beyond put his hand on Alicia's back in the galley. It was going to come out. And I, I did not expect it. Oh, so you got close. You got close, but it wasn't, but that's not the, it wasn't, it was a hundred percent. Not the same. It was still like,
What happened was so surprising. And it was like watching a movie or a soap opera. You don't think these things really happen in real life. These news. It was almost hilarious if it wasn't such a heightened moment. Yeah. Oh, it went crazy. But anywho, we'll get to that. Okay. Well, in the meantime...
Let me tell everyone what's up, which is that we're going to Boston, Detroit, and Chicago this week, and we're going to have the best time. So in Boston, we're going to recap the Beverly Hills reunion, which will be hilarious because we haven't been able to do any housewives on this tour yet, I think. Although I think we did one. I think we did Salt Lake City. But then – Yeah, some classics. Yeah, we did some classics. Someone was like, oh, Beverly Hills. It's going to be such a dark episode this week on the reunion. Are you sure you're going to do that? Yeah.
Listen, we recapped the Holocaust episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Live, and it was a great show. We had a great time, so don't worry. Yeah, don't worry about it. Then on Friday, we're going to go to Detroit and do a classic. It's not about the pasta episode of Vanderpump Rules, which is also one of their Gay Pride episodes. So you know that that's going to be great. That's from season six.
I think it's episode seven, but it's called It's Not About the Pasta. It's literally called that. And then on Saturday, Chicago, which is, I believe, sold out. And we are going to do Summer House, which is, you know...
it's so great so it's gonna be a big fun time and then in may next month we have only a few shows we have dallas and austin and las vegas it's our first vegas show ever so come out and represent let's have a great time in sin city and then you know i don't even have to tell you guys to do that in dallas and austin because you guys always do and you guys are always wild and it's amazing
So looking forward to that. WatcherCrapins.com for those tickets. And then, of course, on Patreon, you can watch us with Crapins on Demand. Hello, hello, hello. But on top of that, we just did a double bonus episode recapping the White Lotus season finale, which was super fun. So go to Patreon.com slash WatcherCrapins. And also just a bit of self-promotion. I'm going to do a dual self-promotion because I'm going to promote you too, Ronnie. Okay.
One, over on Ronnie's Instagram, he's doing travel logs, which are really fun. So if you ever wanted to see what his Italian vacation was last summer, he's putting up little videos. So go check those out. They're really funny. And then my self-promotion is that I have a food newsletter called NBD Fancy. And I cooked a whole Thai meal for White Lotus. And so if you want to see what I cooked, go to nbdfancy.substack.com. Nice.
Yeah, it looks really good. Thank you. I was just looking at that before this. That's just blatant self-promotion there. That stuff at the end, that's just pure. Well, it's delicious and it made me hungry and all I had were overnight ips. Well, when you come back to LA, I'll cook you some Thai food or we could just go to the restaurant that the Thai food is from because it was from a cookbook that's based off an LA restaurant. I'll be back soon. I'll be home soon, honey. I'll be home for Thai food.
So I'll be home for pad Thai. I'm a basic Thai food bit. Oh, I love pad Thai. Can I say something? We have a lot to talk about. We have this, this below deck episode is really, you know, this is like classic mid season below deck when everything is just out of control. But I do have to say, I have to, I have to talk about something before we get to below deck. And this is important. I think this is something that concerns all of us as Bravo fans.
which is that a trailer was released today for Next Gen New York City, which is this is the rumored show that we've been hearing about that. Like we've been hearing stories like, oh, all the kids are shooting a show together, like Brooks and Gia and Ariana Bierman and things like that. The trailer dropped. And when I say it looks so good, I can't even I cannot even express how good this show looks. I don't really understand why Gia is there. It's like a very New York show.
tiktok-y gen z over it kind of vibe and she is a tiktok-y vibe hello she's not like new york city like she's not like new york city she's not like brooks right like i don't see a world where she and brooks authentically ever hang out you know
Well, you know, that's what New York is like when you first go as a child. I went when I was 18 and it was like, wow, you just meet all these different people. And it's just like a hodgepodge of people, weirdos hanging out together. Yeah. I mean, I agree with you. I think it looks so, so good. We are going to cover the fuck out of that show. And we're going to get in so much trouble because we were doing crappy hour and we had like a little story. I mean, look, for me, it was very light shade. It's like Gia quit Gia.
law school to be an influencer. Ooh, you know, we didn't like say you dumb slut. I mean, it was nothing like that. It was just like innocent jokes. Like, Oh no, she, you said something like, Oh, now she's, you know, thank God she's dropped being an immigration lawyer right at the time when people need immigration lawyers. And I was like, yeah, thank God she's going to sell stretchy pants on Amazon. I mean, who cares? It was not, it was a very light shade moment. People are so pissed. Those tree fans are like, Oh my God, making fun of children. You old mean,
They're going to have to get used to it.
When can you make fun of people because you're old? Fuck off. You're on the wrong damn Instagram. I'll tell you that right now because I make fun of babies. I will make fun of a damn baby as it comes out of the womb. Get off my ass. That's not young enough to make fun of almost. I will go younger. I will go for your four-year-old. I don't care. I will recap a preschool. Okay? Yeah, we will drag your toddler for filth.
And I'm okay with that. And now, by the way, those defenders, great defenders of Gia and her honor, they now have completely lost like whatever, whatever claim that they had, because she's just a little girl. It's gone because now she's on a reality show on Bravo. So all bets are off because guess what? This is my personal favorite genre that Bravo tries out every few years. Gallery girls. They did gallery girls. I guess you could put princesses Long Island in this, you know, real girlfriends in Paris. I,
absolutely adored that show it was it kind of like arrived like dead on arrival but it was like i i thought it was like an absolutely amazing show and then now here we are again next gen new york city and i think this is going to be the one that breaks through because we have brooks marx who's already very funny i was surprised at how much i was enjoying um ariana from the trailer that's kim zolciak's daughter right
riley i didn't even know who that was i was like is that and why does she have all the screen time because she has all she has like 80 of the screen time she's like this is disgusting i was like yes yes mother queen yes but i'm also like this is kind of the vibe of new york city that i feel like roni was trying for and just couldn't quite get right and then i'm just new roni and then um uh
Riley is on it, but I think she literally says nothing in the trailer. And like, you know, we think Riley is so wonderful and sweet and great, but I am concerned that she's not quite reality TV material. So we'll see. We'll see if she comes out of her shell on this show.
Yeah, you never know. I mean, they showed four people in the preview, I think. But then the poster is like 10 people. Yeah, there's a whole bunch of like non-children. Non-Bravo children. Non-children Bravo stars. Yeah. Yeah, it looks good. So we'll do a trailer trash of that, I'm sure, in the next couple of weeks. But for now, let's get on to Below Deck Media. First of all, just before I forget to mention this damn fish.
This is such a good show for fish. We, you know, we've been called out for kind of forgetting the fish. Sometimes the most amazing one today was the like Venus, like the Audrey too, from little shop. Oh, the one that can't scallop. It was like a giant clam, right? It had a big closeup. It was like open and then it closed. Oh, great. And it's covered in moss. So it's green. It looks just like the Audrey too. And it just opens its mouth and snaps it. That's what a scallop looks like. Uh, actually it was not a scalp. That was a giant clam.
That was a giant clam. And I think it was a giant clam. It was not a scallop. I apologize. I apologize to the scallop community. But it was like the Elaine Stritch of, like, mollusks down there. It was just like, all right, here's to the clams who lunch. It was just great. I loved it. Great work.
Okay, so let's get to it. We go, we start with a flashback. Okay. Well, it's not a flashback. We start with a flash forward, I guess. It's 12, 13 a.m. And Harry's sobbing to Serena. He's like, I will fucking, fucking woke up this fucking bad tomorrow. No, they never stole me. And I like that even when he cries, he sobs with his mouth wide open, like, just like he laughs. Yeah.
So he's consistent in his mouth opening emoji. Also got to make Brie feel great when he says, there's nothing on this boat. Not one single personal thing that would make me want to stay here. There's absolutely nothing. It's like, oh, well. So much for being excited about finally making out with a model. I know Brie's sitting at home like, what does it mean?
So then we see Johnny and Vian in their cabin. This is still in the flash forward. And Vian's like, Johnny, what's going on? Can you please tell me what's going on? Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. It is actually very much like, it is very much like company. Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. And Johnny's like, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. He's like, what? Tell me what's happening. He's like, no, no, shh, shh, shh, shh.
If I hear... As my grandmother would say. I just want to understand what's going on. What's happened? And he's like, I hear...
A little bit more talking. This bot is going to sink. I promise you. And he's like banging on the cabinets. Now, this is what we've seen the whole season. So the whole season, it's like our White Lotus, you know? Like, oh my God.
what is Johnny mad about? You know, did Parker Posey finally find out the financial state of the boat? Like what's going on? Yes. That's all right.
But yeah, it's basically this is we've been waiting weeks to see the context of this. And then we see all the girls are scared and they're like crying. And it's like, oh, my God. And then Johnny, Johnny goes up to the camera and he's about to punch the camera. But then he does that thing.
that like really macho men do, which is he kind of like bites his fingers. And then he like puts a, he puts like a shirt over the camera instead. I feel like we've made this reference 20 times in the past two weeks, but he is B Arthur and the golden girls. When she's like, she wants to kill somebody and she's like, she just eats her. She eats her fist. That's what he does. He goes right up to the camera and pulls a B Arthur and then covers it with his underwear. Now I knew that VHON was depressed or something was going on. Like VHON's out of sorts.
because Vian's in bed wearing underwear, and that's not like Vian. He's usually naked. And so I was like, uh-oh, what happened to Vian that he put his underwear on? He must be feeling like, you know, like you need your security blanket. Maybe that's his underwear. But I was like, why is Vian in his underwear? That was the first mystery for the whole season. It was like, why do we have a scene with Vian in bed wearing his underwear? What is happening to this show? Yeah, it's a really good question. Also, like, the more humid it gets and the more...
like the longer he goes without a haircut, the more he starts to get Charlize Theron hair, which I think is really fun. Like his hair sort of just getting like kind of like bigger and puffier and rounder sort of like Charlize Theron and like a Dior ad. So maybe it's like a South African thing. I'm not sure, but it's just like, it's just fascinating observations about him.
So Johnny's like, what did I do, bro? And he's like, this boat is fucking mental. So 16 hours earlier, Vion is talking with the captain. So they're talking about the foam party. And this is where he's tattletaling because he was confronted about cleaning right before breakfast.
And so now, so he's not in trouble again. He runs to do like a preemptive tattletale on everybody else. So he runs to Captain Jason and he's like, Captain, you know, I have to tell you, you know, the phone party was messy, but then I have people yelling at me about it and these people don't know. And then they yell at me and then they make me look like I'm doing something bad. I cannot work like this. I just can't do it.
They're only looking out of their perspective. And he's like, "Alright, well, you know where the error is, and so don't, like, you know, throw anyone under the bus. Like, take the emotions out of it and take everything, take all the, take all the piss out of it and just, like, come back and just go." He's basically, Jason's kind of like, "I see what you're doing here. Um, you fix it. Stop throwing people under the bus."
He is. And Jason doesn't want to do anything like we've seen him all season and be like, I'm not managing this boat. You do it. And so his, his advice is, all right, you see that on the table there, that bag. I do bring it over here. Okay.
Pop a couple of those out. Okay. Put them in my mouth. They're peanut M&Ms. Thank you very much. This meeting is now over. All right. So he's like, okay, no problem. Thank you. He's like, turn this thing around. Make a list. Make a list. His actual advice, I forgot, was him saying, okay, here's what you do. Go up to Laura and say, Laura, you're right. I know a lot of things have been going on. I love his advice to tell Laura that she's right. Yeah.
Okay. I understand your concerns. Here's what I would do in your situation. I would tell Laura that she's right. Yeah. Placate Laura. Okay. If he's got unstable eyebrows, just do whatever she asks. So Jason tells us, with Leon, you know, I'm seeing there's no accountability. And this is a concern.
You know, we've got two heads of department not getting along. That could bring the boat down. And on top of that, I mean, how many times has Vian needed to get his crew in line? He's walking a very thin line. And if he doesn't do something to change it, I won't. But I will hope that somebody else does while I sit up here and design kimonos. Yeah.
He's walking a very thin line, and if he doesn't change things, we'll unfortunately have to put a commando on him. So now it's 9.27am. It's the last day of charter. And Zarina and Alicia are working in the galley and everything. And Lara...
excuse me, is talking to guests about what to do for breakfast and everything, and they want to have breakfast around 10.30. So Laura tells Irina that breakfast at 10.30. Do you want to have breakfast at 10.30? And Corinne goes, yes! She has some fun little moments before she gets off the boat. Like everything, she's like, yes, I love a spoon, yes! Yes! Not a spoon. I'm such a spoon girl. Yes! Yes!
So Vian goes up to Harry and is like, so how was the deck this morning at six? What was the game plan this morning at six o'clock in the morning? And Harry's like, well, when I woke up, I looked at this and I saw that the chart said that like, you know, like this area was done. So check those ticks here and ticks here. Everything was all done. So I went to the areas that weren't done and that's what I did. But it turns out the things that said that they were done weren't done after all.
Yeah, and so of course, Vihon is going to yell at him now about that. So he's like, first priority, sun deck. Okay, table. Because that's where we're coming out, right? And he's like, okay, but that stuff was already ticked off, which is why I didn't do it. He's like, okay, well, tick the ticks then. That's what we're going to do, huh? We're going to tick the tick. So...
And Harry, listen, I'm getting all the blame for everything's happening. Not you. It's me. I'm getting the blame. I'm like, yeah, because you're a shitty leader. And Harry's like, no, I'm not saying that you're getting all the blame. I'm taking the blame too from you right now as you speak to me. Remember the words you just said 10 seconds ago? Those were aimed at me. You know, I'm receiving it.
Yeah, and he's yelling at him for not taking the ticks. You're the manager. Why didn't you come down and take the ticks? If you have a list and everything says it's done, why don't you go around and double check it? Which you didn't fucking do, Vian. Okay, sir. So he's like, well, from now on, Sun Decker's priority at night and in the morning. And in the evening, I want to have a drink. And in the morning, go over it again. Okay, so you know it's both ends. And he's like, okay, so we wet it in the morning. And he's like, no, we wet it in the evening. And he goes, okay.
So we don't wet it in the morning. He's like, no, I don't want to wet it in the morning. He's like, but I feel like he just said to me, rinse it at night and then rinse it in the morning. He didn't. He said rinse it at night and go over it in the morning. But still. It was still a confusing directive. It was confusing. No, no. Rinse it at night and then detail the bits. That's not what's being done in the morning. He's like, all right, well, hopefully the job at night gets done thoroughly. Which is funny because also, like,
Vian's whole directive still doesn't solve the whole situation in the morning because it wasn't done at night, anything at night. So,
Harry's basically like, last season, last shadow season with Joao, there was clear communication and clear instruction and clear creepy vibes. And, you know, he allowed room to grow. And we see, like, flashbacks of Joao being a good bosun and everything. I mean, the worst he ever did was when he got mad one time and said, you're a stupid woman and you can't do anything. And this is why we didn't want you to vote. And then he also added...
i'm joao 5.0 back in zim this is how you do things so um jason radio you know it's bad when we're talking when uh the show is like wow remember what a great great leader joao was right what a hero that's a bad sign it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial

So now Jason's rating someone for the anchor and then Vian's checking in on Zarina, see how she slept and everything and she's saying she didn't really get to sleep or anything and he's like, well, if you need a shoulder to sleep on, I'm always here. And she's like, are you flirting with me right now? Like, are you? Because don't make promises you can't keep. And Vian's like nodding, like I am flirting with you, which is fucked up because he's spending all this time and effort talking everyone's ear off about how much he likes her there.
Yeah, but that's his thing. You know, he's like an hors d'oeuvre. He just wants to be eaten. Passed around. It's in his nature. Yeah, he's like, just pass me around. You know, I'm not a solo meal. I'm not a sub sandwich. I'm tiny little bits of sandwich on a tray. So Vian, so Johnny sees him and he's like, bro, what are you doing? Come on. Vamonos. Vamonos. So then Corinne's taking photos on the boat in her bikini. She's like, yes.
Hold on, let me turn so you can get my good side. And then she turns and gives the girl her butt, and the girl's like, oh my god, that is your good side, that's an amazing butt. She's like, yeah, I'm gonna take pictures, and I'm gonna think I look amazing, but then I'm gonna look at the pictures, and I'm gonna be like, oh my god.
Been there. So then, I'm like, welcome to my life every single day. So beyond... I'm past the point of even thinking the pictures are going to look good. I don't even look anymore. If people are like, hey, can I post this? I'm like, just post it. Don't show it to me. Let's not go down the shame spiral right now. Please just post it. Who was talking the thing about Brad Pitt recently? Who was saying something about Brad Pitt recently that... Denise Richards. Oh, yeah. Denise was saying...
Like, Rand's always like, well, they want to do an article with me. Like, whatever. I'll take the photo because I know the photos will look good, but I'm not going to read the article because the article is bad. I'm the opposite. I'm like, I'll do the article. I'm just not going to look at the photo. Yeah. Do we have anybody that can just draw me? That would be great. Could we do that?
Could Ross do a cartoon of me? I think that might be an improvement. Can I get like a courtroom drawing done of my face? So Corinne takes her photos. Okay. So then Vian and Johnny are talking and Vian's like, oh, the Sundance would
that was a mess. And he's like, well, the thumb party was something else. Imagine I had the water open for three straight hours. And he's like, well, I don't think Harry quite understands when you take it off. He thinks I don't have to look.
yeah well why aren't you pissed that johnny why aren't you telling johnny why did you take it off when it wasn't finished no because johnny's your little ass kissing friend so you're not gonna give him any shit didn't johnny even last episode say something like oops i ticked it off when i shouldn't have didn't he like admit that he had made a mistake with that board and like why is he not really saying oh that was my bad i shouldn't have ticked it off whatever i agree like the johnny johnny has some uh account
should have some accountability in this stupid foamy situation. Yeah. But beyond is doing that thing where he's gathering troops to just shit talk. It's like, whoever will sit there and listen to him, shit talk, everybody else. He's going to keep them on his side so he can spread his virus. Yeah. Virus all over the boat.
And then he was like, after everything that, when I woke up, everything I had to do. And then we see, he's like, everything I had to do this morning. I just cuts to him and Adair having like coffee and like talking about coffee and just like hanging out in the galley where, where like Jason has to call down and be like, all right, deck team, we're going to need you on deck now. And he's like, oh, let's go up there. And he's like, after everything I had to do this morning. Lists, lists of things to do. Cut to him, like sitting on the edge of the boat, like what rhymes with love? Yeah.
How do you put together a friend list? - Love with love. - So Jason is speaking to Lara. So I'm, by the way, I'm really enjoying Lara 'cause my favorite thing is when the captain and the chief stew become like, have kiki moments. And I just love when they, I love those, I love that vibe and they've just started to develop that here.
So Jason's like, "All right, so what happened? You look like you're about to tell me something." And she's like, "Oh, with Vihan? I mean, I asked him why he was doing K2R when the guests were up. And he's like, 'Well, his time should have done that last night.' Yeah, no one was told what to do and it didn't get done. And he'll just say, 'You know, Johnny should have done it. And if something isn't done in the interior, it's ultimately my fault because I haven't picked up on it. And I should have delegated it.' So it's really his fault."
And he's like, well, here's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to get the phoenix to rise up. The phoenix has to be in the air before it can rise back up. Like, he hasn't been in the air. The phoenix does not rise from the air. That's not a phoenix. I've got some bad news. It's just a pile of ashes. There was never... There wasn't...
That bird wasn't there in the first place. Okay. The burnt up cigarette on the ground. What you're looking at is some shit from the Phoenix that pooped on some ashes while I was flying over going to a different boat, but there was never a Phoenix in that pile. That's just ashes and they're not turning into anything.
So Corinne's like, oh my God, is that Saver? We've been waiting for Saver. Hi, Saver. I can't with the name Saver. I'm still mad at the name Saver. I can't stand him. Saver, just so everyone knows, last week I thought his name was Savior. Thank God it's not that, but it is Saver, S-A-Y-V-O-R. So I guess his parents, well, I don't know. Maybe it's like a name from like a different culture, but if it's an American name, then it's like they wanted a name different
him after the concept of savoring something but they added a y in there so it's like because just because i guess yeah i think he's an american i mean he i wasn't sure but like some like he's an american guy i wasn't sure maybe like russian name or maybe he's like from the he's from like the great valpak empire you know those are his parents he's like save a valpak
Saver does feel a bit like... The name Saver does feel... His sister is named Penny. It does feel a little bit like some sort of pharmacy. Maybe that's because there was Savon pharmacies back in the day. Yeah. So she's like, we've been waiting for you, Saver. And he's like, have you? Well, the show has arrived.
So now he's unbearable. Unbearable, by the way. That's perfect. He's unbearable. He is. So every time he gets into a kayak, I'm like, sink it! But there you are. So they're like getting breakfast and having fun. And then Vihan is talking to Johnny Stone. He's like, I don't know why Lara is so angry at me, bro. He's like, can you explain to me? Let me ask you this.
Can you explain to me why? Why are you so sensual? Like every girl, you're so sensual. You just come so close and then feeling bottom. You know all this. Why? Oh, it is being nice. That's all. It's like you go to your mother in her face and go, hello, mama. And she's like, it's right up in the beyond space. And he's like, well, I kiss my mom. It's like, no.
enough is enough. I don't want to know more. No, but it's not like I'm making out. It's like pics on the hunts. Like, hi, mom. It's a thing in South Africa. Like everyone, like the Italians will go and show, you know, that's how we do it. Like we're like Italians. They say South Africans are the Italians of South Africa. So like we go down the lips. It's like, just stay away from Alicia. Yeah. No close. No sensual. No sensual. Antique sensual. Antique.
So then the water toys and stuff. And then Jason radios Maureen into the bridge. He was a smartass to him and told him, oh, really? What if you don't eat? You get grumpy and you start micromanaging things. So she's in trouble. So she has to go there.
So he said, all right, now let's talk about the other day. You made a comment back to me, which was not nice, but made it worse that you weren't wearing kimono. I would have accepted it in the kimono, but when you're in uniform, won't accept it. She said, I overstepped 100% line, and I'm so sorry for you being hangry and micromanaging me. She said, well, all right, well, you just did it again. And like, if that's, you know, that's all you got to worry about, that's not a big deal. But like, what else is going on? Seriously?
She's like, well, you know, I mean, I love to do service. I love it with all my heart. You know, I wake up in the morning and think, God, I can't wait to sell somebody French toast. French toast. But...
You know, if they need me in laundry, then I decided I'll be do it to help Laura, to help Laura. I will do it. And she says, you know, she was hopeful to be in service like Laura promised, but she didn't get it. So she, Laura got very defensive and he's like, well, she told me about that. And you said it in front of other people. And when I heard about it, I did not have an M&M in my mouth.
So you can imagine how that made me feel. Micromanaging, old man. Okay. You really have to work on that. Out of every crew member, I want to see some growth. And you're doing a very solid job. You're very strong. And my advice to you is peanut M&Ms. But if you're interested in a mix-up, a remix, I should say, peanut butter M&Ms. Just as delicious. Give it a try. Mm.
So then she's like, oh, he is such a smart guy, you know. And it was so nice to feel validated with someone with so much experience. So I see him as a mentor. So he sees how hard I'm working. He likes it. And you know what? Every time I get a piece of his underwear, I think, God, he's trusting me with these, you know. So I'm happy now. I'm better. Plus, it's good not to be fired. That part, too.
So let's bring up that anchor. And then this guy, Billy, who I think is the primary, he's like, man, Cindy is texting me like, can you push the breakfast back? I'm like, I'm the primary. She's like very demanding. And someone's like, hey, Cindy. And she's not even my girlfriend. Cindy. Yeah, Cindy. Which, by the way, he met Cindy a week ago. So it is kind of funny that she's making demands. But then again, she's also allowed to say, can we push the breakfast back 30 minutes? I'm not ready.
No, no. You've got a whole crew of people up there. Nobody even knows your ass. Get your ass out of bed if you want the breakfast or say, could you save me a plate? Don't hold it for everybody else. I've been great, Cindy. Okay. You're out of there, Cindy. You're one Cindy. I'm going to call you one week, Cindy. No, I think it's reasonable to say, I think it's like, if you wake up in bed with a person that you just like, you know, how to sleep over with, you're like, Oh God.
can we push breakfast back like 30 minutes i think that's okay but then to make a demand i think cindy needs to like settle down okay because cindy you're lucky if you just wake up with that person but if you wake up and there's like eight other people upstairs waiting for breakfast like no cindy we don't know you i don't know why i'm dying on the cindy hill i really have no i have no i have no horse in the cindy race because i also when i watched it i was like fuck cindy but then as i started to say it i started to feel bad i felt like are we just like throwing cindy under the bus is there like
more to the story with cindy like i kind of feel like maybe billy might not be a reliable narrator and he might be throwing cindy under the bus and she may have just made like a simple ask like to see if maybe it could happen and then he you know and if it was like maybe her vibe was like oh it's fine if you can't it's fine i'm just seeing if it could like if it's everyone's down with her you know but like now all of a sudden we're like oh cindy's such a mega bitch and maybe it's like billy who actually created this narrative instead instead of cindy no cindy sucks
Yeah, she probably sucks. I mean, Billy, Billy doesn't seem great either. I mean, what do you expect, Billy? You know, you're you're lifting people up and being like, oh, and now I've known you for a week and now I'm taking you on a cruise. You know, you make someone feel like they're a movie star. They're going to start acting like that very quickly. That's what you get, Billy. But they all are getting left her in the hotel bar where you found her.
Okay, Billy, it's it. Because Cindy's trash. Cindy is trash. Everybody in the hotel bar. Everyone knows Cindy's trash. Cindy's very demanding. Well, because they're all saying it. They're like, yeah, Cindy's demanding. You know, this is code for like, why did you bring Cindy onto our friend trip?
Like, this was going to be, like, such a fun time. Why did you bring this random girl that you met at the airport? Because she's ruining everything. Because I'm aging, and I don't want to go on national TV and look like I'm alone while everybody else has a hot girlfriend. So I got Cindy. Well, Cindy causes, like, mass destruction because...
Essentially, they now are going to push back breakfast 30 minutes, which means that now it's like, well, you can put out like the light breakfast items, like the continental breakfast things like hard boiled eggs or whatever. And then some pastries and then like hardcore breakfasts that can come out in 30 minutes. But unfortunately, down in the galleys, Zarina has just put the final flourishes on the hardcore breakfast. And it can't just like sit around for 30 minutes because it's like it's.
It's ephemeral breakfast food that will die. So now there's drama and it's creating drama between Laura and Serena all because of Cindy.
Yeah. So Serena's like, all right, three minutes and we're going to serve everything. It's going to be so sexy, so delicious. Don't forget to serve the syrup with the fork. All right. And then Laura calls down and she's like, no, change it up. We can't do this. And she's like, well, I was told to go for service. I've got all the food down here. I can't just reheat it. All right. So just take it up. You know, just apologize.
i love that serena's like no it's made and you gave me a time and i'm sending it yeah she's not a fucking magician yeah okay laura's like all right well there's only one of us running food at the moment and then vian's like oh because he's hearing this he goes how do i not have anyone to run food it's because people on her staff are actually working as opposed to your motley crew that puts in a
sinking jet ski into the ocean and then jerks off half the rest of the day. So then, um, at least, so then Alicia is just, um, uh, talking about, she's picking up on vibes between Zarina and Laura. And she's like,
you know i don't really have a strong sense of their history but what i can feel is that things are starting to get a little bit crumbly no one wants to be the first one to bite but they just keep nibbling at each other which actually made me so happy to hear because this was kind of something they set up in the first episode and then we never got back to it that like that laura and zarina have a past and that laura we secretly believe doesn't actually really like serena at all and so it's exciting to think that we might be returning to this concept
Yeah, because I liked that in the beginning when Lara's like, yeah, you know, Serena, she just, she really tries so hard, you know, especially with the men. I remember she liked one guy on the boat and she made a little trail of candy wrappers and snacks that went from her bed into his bed. And it was just so sad. Yeah.
I think that, and the funny part is like, that was an actual story. That's an actual story. And then didn't Serena say, yeah, you know, it's like, she's Barbie. And I'm just like, weird Barbie. Yeah. So, yeah. They've been like all chummy. They've been very chummy this season. And now I'm like, oh, good. We're getting back to the fact that they actually have tension. Yeah.
So they have a greater villain, right? So they have a greater villain to fight, which is Vian. And so right now that's occupying their time. But if Vian gets fired, it's on between these two. Yeah, it's going to be a disaster. So...
Vian takes food up to Marina and Adair or whatever. And then, I don't know, it's basically, they serve the breakfast regardless. And Lara is very self-conscious because she feels like she's like, she's like, I'm the face of the meal service. So it must be nice having strong opinion when you're hiding in the galley. I'm like, okay, settle down. It's fine. Calm down over there. She's like, I am the face. When you look at a sunny side egg, you see me.
Lara. They want to call them eggs Lara-dict. And I said, no, too much.
French Lara. So, you know, William's down there trying to get fucking Cindy. He's like, are you ready? She's like, no, but I guess I'll come. He's like, well, everyone's got PJs. You know, should I put my robe on? She's like, what do I care? I'm eating breakfast early. Like, who fucking cares what I think? This is going to look like the fucking Hushback of Notre Dame. Come down from a fucking mall, eat a goddamn egg because you can have breakfast now. Yeah.
We also have a moment in here with Saver where he's like, he's like, ew, bananas and oranges. He says bananas and oranges or something like that. And he's like, I don't eat vegetables. I'm like, okay, Saver.
You can just throw yourself off that boat right now. There's a hungry moray eel down there. Mrs. Valpack is at home like, God, he's embarrassing. So then Zarina's like, Fake it, saver, for Christ's sake. No one at the country club will talk to me as a dear saver.
So Zarina's like, are they okay? And Lars is like, yeah, but the primary is, you know, she, you know, primary was like, don't bring any of this stuff until Cindy's up and, you know, being the face of service, it's a bit hard because I'm the last thing that they see before they eat their eggs. And that just puts a lot of pressure on me. As the face of breakfast, it was a rough morning. Let me just tell you. Meanwhile, upstairs, Karin goes, what's this? And Saber says, jam. And she goes, oh my God, love a jam. Yeah.
Yeah. Love a jam. Love a jam. She didn't know what it was. What the fuck do you think it is, Corinne? Have you ever seen a jam that's like disguised as something else? It's a fucking jam. Is this popcorn? It's jam. Oh my God. I love Snickers bars. It's jam, Corinne.
So, yeah, so then Zarina... Zarina... Zarina just got lightly told off, as you said. Sorry. So Alicia's like, are you okay? And she's like, oh, yeah. I mean, she's a chef. She doesn't understand the timings of food. You know, fucking breakfast face over there. God. Eggie face. Yeah.
So Johnny comes in and gives a little flower to Alicia. And he's like, I'm just going to give this to you. And she's like, oh, that's very sweet. You're very romantic. So thoughtful. And Serena's like, don't you remember we used to be best friends before she came? God damn it. French toast from his bed into mine. See how this works out for that little slut. Commercials.

meanwhile jason okay now there's a moment this is for another building block to the tension that happens at 12 13 a.m which is that jason's like all right please unhook the tenders and drive them off so vian's like okay i think that we can get those tenders away harry could you use the gray tender to prove the other tender away from the boot so then we see the boat and we see the two tenders and they get
they get the below deck highlight circle. So I was like, Ooh. And then I like rewound it like five times to make sure I had like full spatial awareness of what was going on. I was like, okay, that's the gray one. That's the white one. I'm going to need to know this information. I was like, something's about to happen.
The tender is a brooder film. So he gets him hooked. He's like, okay, you know, gotcha. Use the gray one to tow the other one. Got it, got it. Okay, I'll be good. So then Vion's like, Harry, Harry, you might want to tow that tender with the other tender. And Harry's like, I'll do it. I'll do it like that when I get away. And he's like, oh, God, fucking Harry, whatever. So I don't really understand what happened. What was Harry doing? So Harry explains that if he had...
put the white tender behind the gray tender and towed it that way. Because of the direction of the water, the gray tender could have swung out, kind of like a car fish tailing, and it could have swung out and hit the boat. So he instead took the two tenders and put them side by side, like two horses. And he kind of like... It was actually really adorable the way he did it. It was like he was shepherding along these two...
tenders that were friends and he was like he guided them out side by side um and so vian is like no do it the way i told you to but it's not totally clear i mean if i were harry at that point i would be like fine if you say you want to do it this way i would have actually it's not a good employee thing but sometimes when you have a boss who's on a power trip you just do it and then it's like although again he knows it's gonna probably bop into the boat and then harry will be the one who'll get in trouble not vian so harry did the right thing i take it all back
But either way. Yeah, I don't know. I couldn't really tell. But then Harry says, you know, he goes on the radio and he's like, I'm Captain. Just let you know. I'm going to cruise in at this pace behind you. All right. I think it's best. Do you agree? And very undermining. Yeah, he does. Harry is not totally innocent. Harry is a bit of an, you know, he he is a tattler and he is an underminer. So, you know.
he's a good worker and he's like a good guy but like he he if it's he has shown that he's been a little bit of an underminer to his boss even though his boss is a total idiot yeah
And Jason says, all right, yeah, mate, if you can get in there like that, that's fine. And he's like, oh, I like coffee. I think that's best. And we unhear it. So he radios Harry. And he's like, Harry, I want you to tour it with the other one, like I told you before. And he's like, but one after the other, though. You know, I can do that. But by the time I set that up, you'll be in front of me. You know, you're going to be beat me in any way. Does it save any time? And he's like, well, if you've done it the way I told you, then you wouldn't be in. You would have been in port already.
Because, well, I heard you said, it's like, what did I not tell him to not say anything? It's like, and then and then Harry says, don't yell at the team, which is like, I can't believe you guys are having this conversation on the radio right now. At this point, Harry now Harry just says, okay, got it. And you just do it. And then whatever the consequences are, the consequences are.
So Jason's like, all right, guys, come on now. Let's talk with each other with respect on the radio. Got a nice little kimono for both of you if you're good boys at the end of this charter. So come on, let's get together. Laura asked Johnny, she says, what's happening, Johnny? And he's like, I don't know, fucking dumbass.
so then uh vian is like you know he thinks he knows better than me but boy you've got a long time to go in the industry like do your fucking job bro johnny just tells him calm your titties all right calm them calm your titties um should we just reference the sinking jetski again that almost drowned the person who couldn't swim because what what part of the many years in the industry does that fall under
Yeah. So then Harry comes back to the boat and he comes in to Bree and he's like, I'm so sweaty, but good morning. She's like, oh my God, he kissed me. Do you think we should talk about it? And Vian's like, another child of God. So now they're all saying bye to the guests and stuff. We get a speech from Billy. He's like, you guys were absolutely amazing. Except you, Cindy. Fuck you.
And, you know, the foam party, never seen a foam party like that. Saver ate the foam, even though you guys told him not to. He threw up a lot, but he lost some weight. So that was good. So Saver, thanks you. Okay. Good for now. Do you want to say anything, Camille? She's like, you guys, that peanut butter was really good. It was jam, Camille. It was jam. I love a jam. Corinne.
I always called her Camille. Even on The Bachelor, I kept calling her Camille. She has Camille energy, to be honest. She does. Thank you. Yeah. Some people just have Camille energy.
So they're all like, they're all sweating. So they get into their blues and everything. And Vian is like, he radios Jayce. He's like, the jet skis are the clear of the tinders. We're just preparing the new tinders now. He's like, and then Harry's like, um, by the way, Vian, remember the orange jet ski wasn't fueled last night. And Vian's like, Harry, we are not. Thank you. So why does he have to always feed me?
It's because he knows you didn't know. And that like, if, if like, if like, at this point, I guess also, I guess I'm vacillating a lot, but also like Harry's an underminer, but he's also doing that thing where he's like, okay, at this point I realized I have to put all this stuff on the record, AKA on a radio. Because if I, if I don't, this shit's all, I'm going to get blamed for all this shit when it wasn't my fault.
That's true, but he is still being hugely undermining, you know? And I hate even sticking up for Vian because Vian's really such a piece of shit.
But Harry is going for it. He's at war right now. He's like, yeah, the jet ski wasn't fueled last night. Just want to remind you, stupid. And then he's like, I'm just reminding him. Why is he getting angry with me? Because I think the way you do it, if you have a genuine concern about the jet ski, you might say, hey, by the way, I think the jet ski may need some more fuel. You just say that.
You don't say, oh, the jet ski wasn't refueled last night. It was like a passive-aggressive, like someone did and do their job, right? Yeah. So then...
Vihon is talking to Johnny and he's like, what, does he want to be bosun or something? Because honestly, shut up. I know who's been talking shit about Deku and Harry. What the fuck, bro? Like, why did he say these things? He's just creating problems. Which is true, but you're doing the same thing by going around shit-talking everybody and spreading poison everywhere. Vihon is a poison spreader.
And you had no problem undermining everybody else when you tattletaled about five minutes ago. Yeah. After you were caught not handling your job, sir. So it's kind of a clusterfuck all the way around. Yeah, exactly. John's like, he just makes you look bad. It's all like, look, hey, look at this fish, bro. It's good. It's so beautiful. Beautiful fish. And there was actually a very beautiful tropical fish there.
that was just there by the wall. I was like, what are you doing here, fish? You should be out in the ocean by the coral. You're lost.
So Johnny's kind of funny. Oh my gosh. This is such bad news. I'm usually do not like doing this with bad news, but Jackie Siegel's husband, David passed away. Oh, that's so crazy. Jacqueline was on this show, the queen of Versailles. Oh, sending our heart out to Jackie and her family. Geez. Oh, well, that's sorry. I condole. Sorry. I shouldn't look at my phone during a freaking recap. I mean, my God. All right. Well, sending our love out to them.
Yeah. Her butterfly necklace. Remember? We were just talking about little Hannah Farrier before this. Okay, so we go back to... Where were you? Let us look at this fish. Beautiful fish. Beautiful fish. I was having a... I was contemplating the life of the beautiful fish that has somehow made its way into this port. Yeah.
It looks so beautiful. Look at this fish. Look how it is not sexy on everybody. Look, it is not seductive. This is me like this fish. So tip meeting charter number five. I'm going to take a long pause to show that I'm upset.
And pauses over. Every time I do a seasonal of captain or on a boat or a crash into a dock, I'm not looking for utopia crew. You're looking for personalities that want to be here and want to do a hell of a lot. And I think if we all own some of the things that we've been doing, some of the things that we've been doing instead of blaming other people or situations, let's just fix it. This is basically just a speech for Vianne, but I'm going to be nice and make it seem like I'm talking to everyone, but I'm clearly just speaking to Vianne.
All right, Vian and Harry, I heard you back and forth on the radio. That's unacceptable. It's negativity. Once you start negativity, bitching, complaining, that infection starts. All right, and what do you do with an infection? You wait for it to fester, and hopefully Norma of the Seychelles will take care of it for you. If not, I'm going to have to do something. And we all know I'm barely here right now.
Do you know how difficult it was for me to even come out of the bridge? Very difficult. So don't make me do this again. You made $25,000. Congratulations. And tonight, you don't have the helmet. Even though Veehan's a complete fuck-up yet again, I'm going to not give him the helmet yet a fucking game. He's like, it's honestly just too hot and humid to make anyone wear this thing. It's just cruel at this point. And Adair's like, oh, it's so cute. I want to wear it to the bar. And Jason's like, all right, fine. You can wear it.
At least it'll make so many little dots on V-Hand that he'll just start staring at himself like a cat trying to chase a laser. Stop trying to kiss me so much. All right, now it's not a punch ball, so stop pouring all the beer in it. Okay, now you're chugging. Chug another. Oh, I've got to admit, that actually looks pretty fun. That's not all about it.
That's what I call me. Back in Alabama. I love Chuck. We got a helmets, football helmets, motorcycle helmets, destruction helmets, anything really. Hey, you know what? If you start playing a football game and I put this helmet up, I can watch a football game on a hundred little different screens.
Stupid. All right. Well, all right, mere discovery aside, tomorrow you will be waking up and I've got a trip to a private national park beach for you. Are we excited? And Eric's like, should we have a day off? We have a day off. You know a dairy head at that. She's like, we're at a sanctuary. Why don't we go to Seychelles Football Stadium?
can get a tub of water and we can all let go hot dog bobbing they got a bw square around here they got bulls no they don't have bulls all right so jason leaves them with talk civilly talk civilly to each other all right bye so then um
Vian texts Serena and he's like, so I've got to date with Adair tonight and I'm not sure how she feels. Meanwhile, Adair is just like staring at the ball, like trying not to fall down. I'm just like, wow, this helmet's crazy up close. If I hold a beer up to the helmet and I see 45 in the reflection, is this a 45 pack or is it still just one beer? So basically, by the way, beer is a one time. Bad work's not even over. Yeah.
By the way, Vian texting Zarina about the date, I feel like is a manipulation because he knows that Zarina's into him. He knows this, but he's also kind of like,
He's writing this thing under the guise of like, I need emotional support or I need advice, but it's also kind of his way of saying like, I'm into someone else. I feel like it's almost, it's not rubbing it in her face, but he's trying to like get her jealous or something. Get her like, keep them all on the string. Yeah. An emotional response out of her. I just, I think it's, it's weird. It's very weird to me. So then Harry's talking, then Harry goes up to the beyond and goes that tone on the radio. I didn't like it, which by the way,
none of us liked it it was obnoxious but also it's like that's your boss like you like just going up to your boss and saying that to your boss i don't know like that seems i'm glad he stood up for himself but like you're you're playing a dangerous game when you're with like like a short man with a power complex and then you go and you say that to him
And he's like, yeah, you know, he said, if you did it my way, I'd be back at the dock already. I didn't like that. And he's like, well, I'm definitely not being firm enough, Harry. Don't take it personally. And he's like, oh, no, I'm just thinking, you know, it's personal. And he's like, well, just let me run the boat, Harry. Okay, and if there's something wrong, come to me. And if there's nothing wrong, then leave me alone. And he's like, God, fine, jeez. Mm-hmm.
So then Brie and Lara are lying in a bed together and Lara's just like, I need a bit of a recharge. Like the lights are off and everything except for like a little reading light. And she's like, this whole thing with Vian just not ever validating anything. I'm just, I'm saying it's awful. And Brie's just sort of consoling her. And she just, Lara's just saying like, you know, he gives you an excuse and he storms off. Then he goes and he tells Jason, I just hate the animosity. And like me and Vian haven't spoken since yesterday. Like we haven't been in the same area together.
It's hard when you're the face of breakfasts. Meanwhile, Vion and Johnny are talking and Vion's like, you are my right hand man. And he's like, yeah, you're like my brother. My very sensual brother.
And Vian says, well, I want to talk to you about everything, you know, because we do everything together. You know what? People envy, especially women. You know, when they hit a certain age, like old Lara Benedict in there, they don't have anything going on for them anymore. They're just old. You know, what you do with an old woman.
But put her out. Turn her out. You can't even add milk to that to make it a decent breakfast. You know what I'm saying? Thank God we aren't women. You know, their fucking lives, their lives are terrible. And then they start yapping. They start yapping the whole time. All right, anybody ever wanting to date Vihan? This is the only clip you ever need to see of this man. Like, fuck.
Yes, exactly. And by the way, who is the one who's yapping at the moment? Who's the one who's yapping and gossiping right now? It's you. Who's walking around trying to sow discord literally to everyone on this boat? You. This is what Menno is. It's the cure, tiny man.
This is what men always do. And I say this as a man, because I know this firsthand. Men will always be like, oh, women are so emotional. All they do is yap and gossip. You know who the biggest gossips are? Men. Men are the biggest gossips. All they do is gossip, and all they do is yap. And when people say, oh, a woman too emotional will be in power. Oh, well, who's emotional? Men. Who starts the wars? Men. Small dick emotions, okay? So get over it. Cry during football.
Yeah. That's how they are. The national anthem's so beautiful. Shut up. Just shut up. Pass the Cheetos. Christ. So then Serena and Laura are talking, and she's still in the bed with Brie. And so Serena's like, what in the lesbian name is this? That's all right. I just watch very not weirdly at all, right? And she puts her, like, vag in their faces. Yeah.
Laura's like, you think he's joking, but she's not. She can whistle Dixie with that thing. Just give her enough time. And so Laura's like, well, what do you think is going to happen this evening? Is Vian taking Adair out on a date? Oh, yeah, a date, yeah. He actually just messaged me. He basically was like, you know, he doesn't even know if she likes him and she's playing hard to get and stuff, you know? And I said, well, you'll find out tonight. Did he say that in the text? No.
Maybe they cut some of these texts out. He didn't say that in the text that we saw. I don't know. So then Zarina, she walks over to Vion's cabin and she gives him a hug and
It's like a big old hug. And Harry's like, oh, consent hasn't been... Oh, okay. All right. Vian, why are you grabbing it? Why are you touching that? Oh, Vian! And he's being jokey, but also like, is he being jokey? So Vian's like, oh, Harry, please, come on. So Vian's like, oh, don't... So it's like a funny, jokey, huggy, but it's still flirty. It's still Vian, like... They're all over each other. Vian's still like... It's Serena, too. Vian...
Vian said that he wanted to establish a boundary a few episodes ago, but he's totally down. He's happy to have been on record saying he wanted to establish a boundary, but is very happy to be blurred with his boundaries. Well, he's only setting a relationship boundary. He'll fuck anybody. Yeah.
yeah but meaning that like at this point serena doesn't care so whatever no but this way he's like literally texting another girl he's texting her about texting another girl and she's still all over him so i don't know i think she's just like have you fun yeah but i'm just saying that vian is it's one of those things where vian had he went and he made his little tour of like i'm not into you so he basically built in the clause of like i'm not into you so if you get into me
you're the crazy one. When in fact, he's perfectly happy to have these flirty moments and kissy moments. And then if something were to happen, he'd be like, but I told you I wasn't into you. You should know. So it's like, but that would be true in this case because he did very clearly to, I mean, isn't it okay to just have the boundary where you're like, I don't want to date you, but like, if you still want to be all over me, you can. No, but in this case, it feels like at least he's saying that. Cause he's not like, he's not fuck boying where he's like doing the emotional thing. Like,
But I think in this case, it's not much of a Zerbrina.
I'm sorry. I just talked over you, but like, it's not about, it's not about like his relationship with Zarina. It's that like, if he is now going after a dare and then a dare finds out that he was kissy feely with Zarina, he'd be like, Oh, but I'm not into, I told you I wasn't into it. I was like, yeah, but you're still, you didn't, you weren't into her. You're at, you're into someone else. You say you're not into this other person. You don't create any sort of boundary to say, no, I don't want to do anything physical or have any flirtation with you because I'm wanting to like, you know, so that's where I think he's just so slippery.
in that he has built himself in this thing where he can say, but I told her I wasn't into her, yet he still acts in a certain way. And so if he gets called out for it by someone like Adair, let's say, which looks like it's probably going to happen, he can be like, no, I'm not into her at all. I've told her. And so I just think he's just a fuckboy and he's just trying to have it, you know, he's trying to have his cake and eat it too, as...
we've said in the past yeah so then um now it's time to go out nadir is getting ready for her date and so she meets up with vian and uh he's like you look so beautiful she goes don't i look crusty he's like no you're not too crusty and she's like well the issue is my face is so tan and my body's so pale like it looks ridiculous a farmer's tan
And he's like, you are gorgeous. So Alicia is talking to Johnny and she says, you know, I know that you and the Bosun share a room, but if I just come in later and just cuddle, like, that's all right, right? Is that appropriate? And he's like, sharing my bed with you is lovely. And I would do that. It is respectful. Let us do it. You are beautiful like fish in port.
So then Vianna and Dara sit down at the sushi restaurant and he's like, sir, would you like some red wine? She's like, yeah, I'm new to the red wine scene. He's like, oh, you know, the state's wine are so weird. She's like, yeah, California, cuckoo for cuckoo puffs out there. You know what I'd like to do? I want to go to a vineyard one day and just drink a whole bunch of beer. What I want to do is drink beer and then pee on all those grapes, those stupid red wine grapes. Yeah.
piss all over those fucking snotty ass grapes right and he's like have you ever been to napa valley she goes well i mean i've traveled a decent bit but no i've been to the great lakes though and he's like what the great lights just no the great lakes they're like good legs but better he's like oh lakes he has no idea what they are he's like oh yeah
He's like, wow. Yeah. This is the most awkward date in the world, by the way. Yes. And she's like, yeah, this morning. Oh, no. So then we go to Laura and Harry talking. It's like, oh, this morning. I was like, oh, my God. When I heard that radio call, first of all, I had to stare at the phone and then wipe the yolk off of it because other people have to remember to hold it away from my face. And I said, that's not nice. That is not nice.
He's like, you heard it, yeah? Did I do a good job undermining? She's like, it was, I mean, in front of everyone. I mean, you should have seen, if my face could have turned red, it would have. But unfortunately, it's covered in egg because I am the face of breakfast. He's like, oh my God. He said, if you did it, Mom, I'd beat the duck right now. She's like, oh my God. And he did it on the radio. On the radio. Yeah, I mean, but in fairness, after Harry called and undermined him to Jason on the radio. So, I don't know. Yeah.

And the Monica Lewinsky that my friends and family knew was usurped by false narratives, callous jokes, and politics.
I would define reclaiming as to take back what was yours. Something you possess is lost or stolen, and ultimately you triumph in finding it again. So I think listeners can expect me to be chatting with folks, both recognizable and unrecognizable names, about the way that people have navigated roads to triumph.
My hope is that people will finish an episode of Reclaiming and feel like they filled their tank up. They connected with the people that I'm talking to and leave with maybe some nuggets that help them feel a little more hopeful. Follow Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.
