RHOA S17 E7: Plots, Rumors & Hurricane Chaos 🌪️💎

RHOA S17 E7: Plots, Rumors & Hurricane Chaos 🌪️💎

Podcast Summary:
On this explosive episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, tensions continue to boil over during the ladies’ Dallas trip as accusations, rumors, and emotional breakdowns dominate the group dynamic. Porsha Williams and Kelli Ferrell reignite their feud on the bus over alleged drama involving a married man, leading to insults, apologies, and awkward attempts at peace. Meanwhile, K. Michelle becomes increasingly emotional after learning there may be a “plot” against her involving old rumors and blog gossip. She accuses members of the group of secretly trying to embarrass and undermine her, especially surrounding conversations about Drew’s friend “Black.”

The group splinters as some women try to uncover the truth while others defend themselves against accusations of manipulation. Shamea Morton finds herself at the center of the chaos, accused of stirring the pot while claiming she’s simply being a loyal friend. Drew Sidora becomes defensive after being confronted about repeatedly bringing up “Black,” eventually calling him directly for clarification. Meanwhile, Angela Oakley pushes hard for answers, intensifying the drama.

Despite the emotional turmoil, the ladies glam up in extravagant diamonds and couture for Cynthia’s tequila gala, only for disaster to strike when a massive storm threatens to ruin the outdoor event. In true Housewives fashion, the women still manage to argue, throw shade, and crown themselves queens amid the hurricane chaos. The episode ends with exhausted tensions unresolved as the cast heads back to Atlanta.

Wendy (00:01.102)
Hi, welcome to, No, go ahead, go right ahead.

Kelli (00:01.515)
Hi, welcome to We Why Whenever.

Kelli (00:06.219)
Sorry. Welcome to rewind whenever I'm Kelly. We're talking about Real Housewives of Atlanta tonight, season 17, episode seven, dynasty diamonds and drama. But before that, we'd like to ask you to please go to our YouTube page, subscribe, share, give us five star reviews, follow us on Instagram and all the things, Facebook, TikTok.

Wendy (00:12.459)
I'm Wendy.

Kelli (00:36.149)
And we appreciate it, thank you. Okay, so Real Housewives of Atlanta. A a lot going on in this episode.

Wendy (00:40.376)
Thank you.

Kelli (00:50.689)
We pick up where we ended with the hot chili cheese, Frito, P word thing. And apparently, so I didn't catch it last week, but I guess Kelly said that because Portia basically said, Kelly said Portia's been scissoring everything in Atlanta, and then Portia said Kelly tried to scissor her. Now Portia is now going to tell us like the 15th lie she's telling us this season.

Wendy (01:11.267)
Right.

Kelli (01:17.897)
and she says that they were in Miami after Grenada last year. And that night they went out and Portia was taking a ho bath, whatever the F that is, and Kelly got a good look and said to Ms. Shamiah, I want some of that. Now I don't believe this for a hot chili cheese second, do you?

Wendy (01:27.746)
Thank

Wendy (01:39.246)
I don't. I do not. But I will tell you who does believe it. Portia. She believes this.

Kelli (01:51.841)
doesn't even matter if she believes that she's gonna say it, she's gonna perpetuate it. I mean, it's ridiculous, Portia. And of course, Shammi is like, yeah, didn't hear any of that. And Kelly says, I don't like them big and goofy.

Wendy (02:06.104)
Yeah.

Wendy (02:11.042)
That's what she said. That is exactly what she said. And Portia said in her confessional, a troll was trying to climb a tree that night and I was not gonna have it. I was like, come on, Portia.

Kelli (02:26.291)
Now, history has shown us, and this is no insult, no shade, no nothing, because women may live their lives, but history has shown us that in situations like this, Portia does participate when things like this come up. And if she doesn't participate, she at least plays along as if she's going to participate. So I don't believe that.

Wendy (02:46.446)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (02:52.93)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (02:53.857)
I really don't believe that this happened. I think she's a liar.

Wendy (02:59.522)
Yeah, I don't know why she does it either.

Kelli (03:03.059)
I just think because she can because if you look on social media it is all this is Porsche's show She's running the show. This is Porsche's show. You know it's the Teresa Vicky You know back in the day NeNe mentality People think Porsche is the show. I don't agree with that but

Wendy (03:26.644)
No, I don't either. mean, listen, I do like Portia. I'm not really digging her this season because I think she's coming in too strong and I don't like the way that she's treating the other ladies. And then even so much as so, then she like gives these fake apologies and pretends like she's gonna have your back when she's the one who started it. Like, I don't get that.

Kelli (03:33.995)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (03:51.937)
This is her and Phaedra's M.O. This is her and Phaedra's M.O. And I think that, you know, she knows, she knows that these women think it's her show. So she just thinks everyone's gonna bow down and kiss her ass.

Wendy (04:06.754)
Yeah, I don't like it.

Kelli (04:08.488)
And I think that that's one of the biggest problems between she and Shemeah. I think she just thought Shemeah was gonna fall in line and Shemeah was like, no, I'm my own person and I'll, you do what I want.

Wendy (04:20.59)
Yeah, yeah.

Kelli (04:23.329)
So they all start talking about a rose and who needs a rose and I didn't realize it at first but I guess it's a sex toy.

Wendy (04:31.34)
Yes it is, because I had to look it up.

Kelli (04:33.971)
Yeah. And Kay Michelle's confused. She's like, we went from hot chili cheese, hot pocket to everybody getting along. I will say that for the Atlanta ladies. They can move it. They can, they can move, move along. They can get over it quick and then go kiki and have their fun. There's not a lot of grudge holding here, which is, which that I like because obviously we, you know,

Wendy (04:35.209)
hahahaha

Wendy (04:54.926)
they can.

Kelli (05:02.579)
other franchises. It's like years and years, like enough already. Poor Pinkie though, they get to bar Eden and she is in the bathroom. I did not realize why she was in the bathroom and then we find out she had too much tequila on the bus. She did seem like she was having a lot of fun on that bus too, poor Pinkie. But the girl can't eat because she's in meat country. She can't eat anything.

Wendy (05:16.44)
Too much tequila.

Kelli (05:32.191)
She's starving. Mickey is starving. Somebody get her some french fries.

Wendy (05:32.504)
That's so... Yep. Yep. Yep.

Kelli (05:39.266)
They're talking about the gala tomorrow night and whose husbands are coming, know partners and Cynthia is gonna have a Miss tequila contest for the best-dressed lady and then Cynthia goes to check on pinky and It's it's not it's not good. So she comes back to the table and they're like, well, we'll go and she's like Well, she's still on the toilet. So we can't go It's not the time

Wendy (06:01.826)
Right. I know. I love how she was so frank about that. I was like, okay. Not she's still taking care of business. She's still on the toilet.

Kelli (06:12.039)
If, yeah, if you must know and the rest of the world watching, yeah. Okay, so this next part, didn't know what was going on, but then we find out what's going on.

Wendy (06:17.314)
Right. Right.

Kelli (06:32.349)
So, Portia is checking the oysters and said, this vagina is clean, and then says something about a scent.

So you don't really clock anything here, right? We just think it's Portia being, you know, it was weird, it was weird. Because I like oysters, but I don't want somebody referring to them as a vagina when I'm trying to eat them. So it was definitely weird. But we don't clock anything yet. Shamia asked Kay how she's feeling, and she says there's a lot of stuff she wants to say, but she won't.

Wendy (06:49.288)
No. No. I thought it was weird. I did think it was weird. Right. Right.

Wendy (07:01.975)
No.

Kelli (07:12.371)
Someone says this is a safe space. I mean, that's a joke. And she's like, this is not a safe space. And she's right. She said you all be beaten the hell out of each other. So, Portia takes it personal basically and says that wasn't her intention to have that conversation with Kelly on the bus. And they should have just had it between the two of them. And that she's disappointed in herself, Portia, for talking about Kelly's business and she takes it back.

Wendy (07:16.876)
Yeah.

Kelli (07:42.477)
And Portia says they need to have another conversation and Kelly says she's good where they're at and good for Kelly Good for Kelly like we don't need any more conversation Basically, just shut up

Wendy (07:57.25)
Yep. Yep.

Kelli (08:00.13)
Drew asks Kay what had her feeling a certain way and Kay says she's been standoffish with her because she keeps saying that Kay knows Black and the only way she knows him is because he's in her DMs. And in her confessional Kay says that when she started coming around the group word around Atlanta was that Drew was trying to make it seem like she had something deeper with Black than it was. Now,

Do you think, I mean, I don't know what the word in Atlanta was, obviously, but what do you think? Do you think that once Drew found out Kay was joining the cast, she was like, you know, maybe a little intimidated because Kay really does have a career. Like no shade to Drew, but she played T-Boz in the TLC docu-series.

Wendy (08:35.234)
Well...

Wendy (08:53.708)
Right. Right.

Kelli (08:55.957)
She doesn't have any big hit charts.

Wendy (09:01.9)
Yeah, I mean, I feel like that there's got to be some kind of truth to that because, you know, that wasn't the only thing that she said. You know, she said it was was word on the street was before, you know, when people found out she was, you know, joining the show is that, you know, they were going to try and take her down for, you know, the past rumor. And listen, I mean, it's adding up.

What K. Michelle is saying is adding up. like why else is Drew making something over this black situation? And even when...

Kelli (09:32.818)
Absolutely.

Wendy (09:45.814)
When she's talking about the DMs, I think it was Shemeah that said, tell me that she's not jealous, meaning Drew, that Kay Michelle is talking to Black that way. Now again, was a while ago. It was a while ago. It didn't happen now, and I think it was before Drew was with Black, because she already said that her and Black are just friends.

He may have feelings for her. She may have feelings for him, but she's not really admitting that. But I mean, I think it's pretty obvious that she does have feelings for him.

Wendy (10:23.98)
I don't know.

Kelli (10:24.203)
I mean, basically Drew's like, I said it one time, and if he's flirting in your DMs, he's a single man, and he's in a lot of women's DMs. She's making it seem like she doesn't care, and then Shemeah makes a comment that, you know, don't stay on the phone with someone for hours if you don't care about them like that. Kay actually gets annoyed with Shemeah, because she's like, you know, we're making progress here, and then you're opening.

Wendy (10:34.146)
Right.

Wendy (10:44.138)
Right, exactly, exactly.

Kelli (10:53.973)
your mouth, you know, I didn't, I feel like Shemeah kind of put a target on her back with that. Like she should have just, she should have just let them have the conversation and stayed out of it. I know Kay is her friend now and you know, they're confiding in each other.

Wendy (11:09.325)
Yeah.

Kelli (11:12.085)
Kato to me is she needs to be dropped off in the hood.

Wendy (11:12.268)
Yeah, because Kate...

That's what she said. She's like, you never grew up in the hood, did you? She's like, no, I didn't. And she's like, yeah, you need to get dropped off in the hood. And then you'd be onto, you know, onto other shit. Like you wouldn't be worried about this. And I think she's probably right, you know?

Kelli (11:27.169)
Right. She's right. She's right. So we get to the next morning. Pinkie shows up, she's feeling better. And she said that Cynthia was really checking on her and she feels good today. She was dehydrated. Yeah, you sure were. Kay isn't at breakfast yet. Cynthia has a sore throat.

Wendy (11:46.616)
yes, yes she was, yes she was.

Kelli (11:55.042)
and she's saying that how she puts a spoon, I'm gonna try this next time by the way, she puts a spoonful of honey in her mouth and she lets it drip down her throat slowly and as she's explaining it, the other ladies are definitely getting turned on by it. And I think Cynthia has way of doing stuff like that, you know? She just, the way she explained it, they were like, oh, oh.

Wendy (12:10.532)
Hahaha!

Hmm.

Kelli (12:23.775)
And then Cynthia tells him she has pink Lucy coming with gowns. I thought she said she was coming with gowns for the ladies to choose from and then a jeweler was coming. And then Portia had her dress from the reunion when she was pregnant with Pilar.

Wendy (12:30.776)
That's what I thought. That's what I thought.

Wendy (12:38.114)
Yeah, maybe some people needed gowns and some people didn't. I didn't know. Yeah.

Kelli (12:42.881)
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Maybe some people didn't or they brought and they like the other ones better, who knows? So Kay finally joins them for breakfast and Angela, man, she's putting in the work this season. She's putting in the work.

Wendy (12:45.261)
Yeah.

Wendy (12:49.987)
Yeah.

Wendy (12:59.64)
Coming in strong.

Wendy (13:03.677)
yes.

Kelli (13:05.665)
She points out that Kay said she didn't feel safe at dinner and Kay just starts to cry and she says, I don't understand why you're sitting here saying you care about people when you're plotting and planning to do something. I mean, Kay, did you watch the show before you joined it? This is what they do. I mean, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this is what they do. Like, have you met Portia and Phaedra? You should know this by now. Did you see what they did to Candy? I mean, come on.

Wendy (13:23.276)
Yeah.

Kelli (13:35.489)
She said if I knew someone was plotting my hurt I'm not gonna sit here and smile to their face and she said I know the whole plot and Nobody knows what she's talking about. Well, we don't think nobody knows what she's talking about, right?

Wendy (13:49.612)
Right, right, right.

Kelli (13:51.98)
And then of all people, Portia comes over and says she feels responsible because she brought Kay into the group. And she'll deal with it for her.

Wendy (13:59.948)
Right. That's what I'm like.

Kelli (14:05.537)
So Kay says she's not in the space to say it yet. She knows the joke and the person is a low down MFer and she sees everything. Then she tells them that after dinner last night, she got a call from someone telling her that there was some plotting. One thing being the black thing and another thing having to do with an X and a rumor from eight years ago. Now I had, looked it up.

Wendy (14:30.774)
Yes. Right.

Kelli (14:34.241)
At that moment, I looked it up immediately. So apparently one of her exes made a comment about her vagina smelling like a, what do you say, not smelling good. First of all, what a piece of shit whoever this guy is. I'd love to know who it is. He's a piece of shit. What man would say that or do that?

Wendy (14:35.732)
I did too. Yeah.

Kelli (15:05.803)
That's.

Wendy (15:05.996)
And he said it on the Breakfast Club, like on a podcast, like on a, you know, like a public forum. It's not like, yeah, yeah, radio show, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Kelli (15:10.601)
Yeah, on a radio show, right?

Ugh, what an a-

So Kay's telling them what this person said, whoever called her, and Angela says, I'm always looking at your face, Shemeah. She says, Shemeah says she knows what Kay's talking about and that she had confided in her and Kelly. So Kay told Shemeah and Kelly, and Portia says she heard Shemeah was talking about Drew after dinner, and yeah, Shemeah said, like I absolutely did. I said,

Wendy (15:35.68)
Right. Right.

Kelli (15:48.181)
You know, the thing about Drew caring about being on the phone.

Wendy (15:52.439)
Right, right.

Kelli (15:56.192)
And Drew says that Shemeah has backup now, so she's gonna keep coming for her. I don't think Shemeah needs backup, Drew.

Wendy (16:03.436)
I don't think so either.

Kelli (16:05.127)
No, no. They're all acting like they don't know what's going on, but.

Wendy (16:06.54)
I don't think so either.

Wendy (16:10.591)
It's weird though because think about it.

Think about it. you know, last year, Drew and Portia were not in a good place because of Dennis, right? Then this year, it starts out, Drew and Portia are fine. I mean, Drew has her own wig line with Portia now with Bear Naked. Cynthia has a wig line with Bear Naked and they're all good. But now Drew is having a problem with Black and Kay Michelle. I mean, it just...

Kelli (16:21.185)
Mm-hmm. Yep. Yep.

Kelli (16:42.955)
Shamiah and Shamiah.

Wendy (16:44.724)
And Shemia, and Shemia. It's like, come on. Like, what is going on?

Kelli (16:52.107)
Well, you know, I don't know if we got it yet, it got to it yet, but yeah, we're getting there. What, so.

Kelli (17:02.849)
They separate, right? So Kay is talking to Shemeah, Kelly, and Pinky and she's crying. Cynthia, Angela, Drew, Portia, and Phaedra, the bed crypt keepers, go into Cynthia's room. Kay says, Drew, Portia, and Phaedra were going to address something with her at dinner. Kay says she is heartbroken and apparently it had something to do with Portia and the oyster saying this vagina is clean.

Wendy (17:05.186)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (17:09.154)
Right.

Wendy (17:16.288)
Right. Right.

Kelli (17:32.98)
So I, so she said the second part of the plot, said, involved them exposing a rumor that a disgruntled ex said eight years ago and on law on screen headline. Meanwhile, implied that this rumor was related to comments K. Michelle's ex made about her lady parts several years ago. Now, if this surprises anyone who's watched this show, you're out of your mind because poor shit is the lowest to me.

Portia is the lowest class housewife if there ever was. She is low class, she is low budget. I don't care she's living in that big ass house. She's horrible.

Wendy (18:08.386)
Yeah, I mean.

Wendy (18:15.852)
Yeah, that is not cool. It's not cool. Like, why would she do that? And don't tell me it wasn't. I mean, come on. Okay, Michelle clocked it. Right. She clocked the whole situation.

Kelli (18:22.942)
my God, it was so intentional.

Kelli (18:27.945)
Absolutely. And then I'm a little disappointed in Cynthia, I'll be honest with you. I'm a little disappointed in Cynthia because if she didn't know it before, she knows it now. And this is your turn to call Portia out for that behavior because that's disgusting. Because that asshole should never have said it eight years ago and it should never have been brought up on camera. It's terrible. It's a terrible, terrible thing. So.

Wendy (18:51.871)
No, no.

Kelli (18:57.121)
The bed crypt keepers are in Cynthia's bed and Drew reads a tweet that Kay put out earlier when they were all sitting at the breakfast table. If it takes a group to plot a rumor or scheme to bring me down when I am coming in love, you already lost in the game and lost in life. Portia's like, Portia just feels offended because she's the one that introduced her to the group.

Well, Portia, you, mean, offended. mean, she's ridiculous.

Wendy (19:33.806)
She's like, for her not to tell me who's offending her, I'm like, you idiot, it's you! Of course, it's you!

Kelli (19:39.286)
I feel like Portia has some mental health issues at this point. mean, unless she's just playing a part, like is this just a role she's playing that she's dumb? I don't know. says one thing she doesn't have tolerance for is people with no talent or no real business. you've been, this was amazing. You've been promoting synthetic hair over on Beaufort highway that never sold.

Wendy (19:43.566)
I know, I do too.

Wendy (19:53.378)
I don't know.

Kelli (20:06.613)
And then the other one is fighting for her home with the whole man in the basement. And you're gonna worry about a man got to say about my vagina is spelling like a sardine or a glaze candle. An eight year rumor she says. She's gotten her vagina tightened, snipped, tucked. This is a married vagina now.

Wendy (20:22.978)
Yep. You don't even know this vagina. She said.

Kelli (20:25.409)
You don't even know this vagina It's so good her reads are so good I Mean dare I say I think she I Think she's better than Phaedra. Well, I don't know man Phaedra has some good shit in her confessionals

Wendy (20:31.81)
That was good. That was good.

Wendy (20:44.12)
Phaedra does have good stuff. mean, she was talking about Angela needs to be on the case for this one. But she honestly, Phaedra wasn't, she wasn't, she wasn't involved in this at all. And if you've noticed Phaedra hasn't been that involved in this.

Kelli (20:50.143)
Yes, yes, she needs to investigate.

Kelli (20:57.459)
I mean, I'm sure, no, I think after last year with the whole, you know, the whole Angela and Charles Oakley of it, I think she's probably trying to fly a little bit under the radar, because I think she got a lot of heat for that. But they're basically trying to blame Shemeah.

Wendy (21:05.741)
Yeah.

Wendy (21:12.897)
Yeah.

Wendy (21:16.685)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (21:18.077)
And Angela's saying that, Shemeah is saying it and she's the instigator. I knew this alliance with Portia, Phaedra, and Angela was not gonna be good. It's not good. And then they bring up the fact that Pinky said Phaedra eats dead people.

Wendy (21:35.321)
my gosh, that's right.

Kelli (21:39.307)
But the hypocrisy of the bed, bed, crypt keepers saying that it's wrong for K to hate who, who, Shamiya hates. Is that what they said? K hates whoever Shamiya hates.

Wendy (21:52.236)
Yeah, yes, but that is not what's happening. That's not what's happening.

Kelli (21:56.03)
It's not what happening and they're all talking shit on Kay basically because Portia and Drew are beefing, you know, not beefing with her, but plotting on her.

Wendy (22:06.07)
Right, and as soon as Drew walks away, she FaceTimes with Black and is telling Black what's happening. He's like, yeah, I've complimented her in her DMs before. I'm like, come on, Drew, we know this is all staged. Like, who are you fooling?

Kelli (22:19.115)
She's the worst, man. She's the worst, Drew. She's the worst housewife. She's got nothing. Well, the gown lady finally shows up and Kelly goes to talk to Shemeah. Shemeah's like, this is insane. They're putting everything on me and I need to clear it up and good for her. Shemeah wants everyone to come outside and Cynthia is so distracted by Shemeah's ass and so was I. Who was not distracted by that? She went and Cynthia was like, ass.

Wendy (22:37.622)
Yeah.

Wendy (22:44.931)
God.

Kelli (22:49.161)
Right here. I mean, you couldn't not look at it. It's amazing and I really hope she gets her rum bottle.

Wendy (23:00.418)
Yeah, well, it's on hold, she said.

Kelli (23:03.871)
Yeah, she says they're on island time. me too, man. So Shemeah basically sits the ladies down and says, Kay told Kelly and I at the same time about the phone call she got. Kay says Shemeah did not tell her anything. Shemeah doesn't want the group to make her the fall person and I don't blame her.

Wendy (23:05.71)
They're on island time. I would like to be on island time.

Wendy (23:28.811)
Right. Right. Right.

Kelli (23:31.093)
You know, Kay says, I got the information, it's hurtful. The person who did it knows exactly what they did. You see the look on Drew's face when Portia says what she's, you could, in that scene when Portia said what she said about the oyster, you saw that look on Drew's face. Drew had the look on her face like, I can't fucking believe she just said that. She really did. Drew knew exactly what Portia was doing.

Wendy (23:49.581)
Yeah.

Yep. Yep. Yep.

Kelli (24:01.424)
okay. I do think she's got to stop bringing up this black thing though, because it's, it's done. Like it's done.

Wendy (24:10.7)
well.

I hope it's done.

Kelli (24:14.451)
I hope, well, it's not here, know, Kay brings it up again. Drew said it seemed like she knew him at Portia's party when he was on the phone. And honestly, I said it too. I thought they, I thought she acted like that too. I really did. But Kay is like making it seem like Drew was insinuating like they hooked up or something. Kay is making it seem like Drew's doing that, but I don't take it that way.

Wendy (24:24.407)
I know you did.

Wendy (24:39.63)
Like I said last time, I think it has to do with all about the timing. Because she married her husband just before they started filming. And he came in after she'd already been with somebody else and was about to get engaged to that other person. I think it's just all about the timing. I don't know though. mean, I don't know. Yeah. I don't think it happened.

Kelli (24:58.879)
Yeah, yeah, and like you said

Well, they get very heated. No, I don't think so either. They get heated, they get up off their couches. Drew's saying that Kay wanted her moment, but I don't think that's what this was. And like you said, Drew called Black. And he said, why would you, she said, Drew's trying to, Kay's saying that I'm trying to attach you to her. And he said, why would you do that when you don't even want me attached to you? Which I thought was pretty funny.

Wendy (25:08.355)
And now.

Wendy (25:28.62)
Which... it was. I agree though. I agree.

Kelli (25:35.529)
Porsche tells Kay she thinks she was telling Kay stuff and of course Angela has to butt in. And to me it says you're still talking about me in rooms I'm not in. I don't know what I feel like Angela's now doing Porsche's dirty work.

Wendy (25:55.048)
I am very disappointed if that's what's going on. Because I would not peg Angela to be Porsche's minion. And I agree with you. This is what it seems like. And I don't like it. I don't like it.

Kelli (25:56.235)
with Shemeah.

Kelli (26:03.263)
I know.

Kelli (26:06.921)
It's a very Tamra Emily Simpson situation with, no, I don't either. I don't either. Andy Cohen, you're gonna need to step in, because this is getting unenjoyable now.

Wendy (26:11.724)
I don't like it. I don't like it.

Wendy (26:23.342)
I think what happens is when they've been on, like this is the 17th season. Yes, Portia was off for a couple seasons, just like Tamra, right? I think that they get this thing in their head that they're brought back and that the show can't survive without them. So they need to do what they need to do to make this the best season and they need to control it and move the story along whether it's true or it's not.

Kelli (26:39.636)
Absolutely.

Wendy (26:51.22)
and I don't want that in a housewife show. I don't, I mean, that's one of the things I like about Rhode Island. First of all, that it's brand new and second of all, there's none of this scheming. I mean, this was all planned before this season started is what it looks like. This looks like this was planned before the whole season started.

Kelli (27:07.169)
Oh, absolutely, but this is what Portia and Phaedra do. This is what they've always done. Yeah. Yeah, so we finally move on from that and Joe Pichetti, the jeweler shows up with JC. Cynthia's necklace was $100,000. Bracelet? Did the bracelet say 385,000?

Wendy (27:14.934)
Yeah, I don't like it. I don't.

Wendy (27:34.764)
I missed it. It could have. I mean...

Kelli (27:36.29)
Yeah, I thought it did. Pinky's necklace was 400,000. Shamiya's 98,000. Kay had $275,000 earrings. Kelly had $198,000 necklace. Phaedra had $100,000 necklace. I loved hers, the snake. I honestly, I thought I liked Phaedra's look.

Wendy (27:42.23)
Yes!

Yep.

Wendy (27:59.266)
The snake, I put that too. I liked hers.

Kelli (28:05.247)
The best. I really did. I personally would have given her Miss Tequila. And then Portia tells Cynthia she's wearing her reunion dress from when she was pregnant.

Kelli (28:20.689)
You could see that Drew was nowhere near being ready, right?

Wendy (28:26.397)
yeah. I don't feel like she had any intentions of making it there. I don't understand it.

Kelli (28:31.657)
And the ride there had to be a decent amount of time.

Wendy (28:34.486)
An hour. It had to be an hour. It had to be an hour.

Kelli (28:37.793)
So you, I mean, I don't know what time they left, but you didn't get there until 10.30. You left at 9.30 to go?

Wendy (28:46.638)
Yeah, because I wrote down, time for the ladies to leave and it's raining, but it's an hour away, so hopefully it will not be raining when they get there. And they had the police escorting them because of all, I don't think it was because of the rain, I think it was because of all the jewelry.

Kelli (28:59.829)
was definitely because of the jewelry. Definitely.

Wendy (29:01.418)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Kelli (29:04.609)
Kay in the, Drew's nowhere near being ready and she's gonna meet them there because she's got a headache. That's what she said. Kay says she knows what's going on but it's Cynthia's time and she's gonna let it go for now. It's storming really bad at the venue. Poor JC calls Cynthia crying. It's an outdoor event and he feels guilty. What do you feel guilty about, JC? You're not Mother Nature.

Wendy (29:27.441)
my God.

Kelli (29:33.717)
You didn't do this. And Cynthia said there was a hurricane, but you're in Texas, dude. That could be a tornado. That ain't no joke.

Wendy (29:40.854)
It probably was.

Kelli (29:42.409)
Yeah, and that looked bad. But they brought everything inside, they made the party inside, it looked nice. They get there, they find their significant others. Handsome Mike is there, would love to see it.

Wendy (29:46.317)
Yeah.

Kelli (30:00.162)
No, Adrian Maloof. That was a little disappointing and no Charles Oakley. Definitely disappointing. No, Adrian Maloof or Charles Oakley.

Wendy (30:03.63)
I thought so too.

Wendy (30:09.868)
Yeah, I thought that was weird. Not so much Charles, but definitely Adrian.

Kelli (30:15.091)
Yeah, like I really thought we were gonna get, you know, get to see her interact with Cynthia. So they, you know, they're all having a good time and they have to go get ready for their walks to see who's gonna be the tequila queen. I really did like Phaedra's the best, but I thought Angela looked very nice too.

Wendy (30:18.925)
Mm-hmm.

Wendy (30:39.084)
Yeah.

Kelli (30:41.439)
She had like a Marilyn Monroe thing going.

Wendy (30:42.155)
I like Phaedra's, I definitely like Phaedra's the best as well. And Cynthia always looks stunning, so.

Kelli (30:46.4)
Yeah.

Yeah, she does. She says in the spirit of sisterhood, she's gonna keep the crown for herself. But she was kidding.

Wendy (30:56.302)
thought that was hysterical. I thought that was hysterical.

Kelli (30:58.931)
Yeah. And then she does give it to them all. And then Drew arrives when it's over and they're getting ready to leave.

Wendy (31:03.895)
Yeah, yeah.

Wendy (31:12.79)
Yep, 1030. Yep.

That was crazy.

Kelli (31:18.453)
She's always late. I mean, they know that. that's obnoxiously.

Wendy (31:20.258)
I mean, that was ridiculous.

Kelli (31:27.093)
Who says she must've been part of the cleanup crew?

Wendy (31:30.286)
me.

Kelli (31:35.389)
I don't know, ma'am. That was basically it. Cynthia's very relieved that the trip's over. What was with the hour and 15 minute episodes?

Wendy (31:37.271)
I

Wendy (31:45.646)
I don't know. I don't like it though.

Kelli (31:46.943)
This and Rhode Island. I don't either. It's enough. It's enough.

Wendy (31:51.308)
Yeah, I don't like it. Stop doing that.

Kelli (31:56.053)
Yeah, please, we don't need it. We don't need it.

Wendy (31:57.902)
I didn't mind it. I didn't mind it for Rhode Island to be honest with you. I didn't even notice it, but I did mind it for this It does it does this one doesn't go

Kelli (32:03.157)
That goes by so quick, Rhode Island.

You know what it is with Atlanta? There's just too much fighting. It's feeling very Jersey. It's feeling very OC. yeah, it's very caddy.

Wendy (32:11.394)
That's it.

Wendy (32:15.766)
It's OC for sure. It's very catty. so, like I said, it's like they've been on too long. They need to switch it up. They need to get rid of the OGs. I'm not saying recast the whole thing, but I think that they need to switch it up. think that they need to, you know, pull out the...

Kelli (32:23.776)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (32:28.693)
They do. Right.

Kelli (32:36.725)
Yeah, because it's very clear that Portia made some kind of deal with Angela off camera before this season started, know, drew and drew. And I don't like that. I don't like that. Because then we're going to have teams.

Wendy (32:46.294)
and Drew.

Wendy (32:51.692)
I don't like it either. I don't like it either, because it's not... Right.

Kelli (32:56.897)
It's the last thing we need on any other franchises, teams.

Wendy (32:58.954)
No, it's not genuine. It's just, it's not genuine. It's not genuine. It's not why we watch these shows. That's not what it was about. Like, that's what I don't like.

Kelli (33:08.543)
Right, and it's stress inducing. Like I don't, I'm not gonna watch something that gives me stress to watch it and that gives me stress watching it. Why the hell would I do that? I got enough stress over here.

Wendy (33:20.448)
Amen to that. I hear ya.

Kelli (33:22.119)
I just want to watch a show where women are rich and they're buying shit I could probably never afford and wearing clothes I probably can't afford but I don't think we're seeing that on Atlanta Jersey or OC. Who said it last night? A lot of housewives are... no, was Anna on Reality Court. She was talking about how the housewives of Miami buy from Sheehan. They wear Sheehan.

Not that there's anything wrong with Shea, but I think that, you know, well, other than the child labor though, yes, there is something wrong with Shea and there is child labor. Don't buy from them.

Wendy (33:55.342)
Well, there is. Yes, there really is. No, no.

Kelli (34:04.155)
Or Teemo. Laurie.

Wendy (34:06.06)
Right.

Kelli (34:12.481)
But that was about I mean not that that was about it because I think that there was a lot going on here I'm glad she Mia stood up for herself Like don't don't try to put this on me

Wendy (34:24.44)
I am too. I am too. And you know, Andy asked her on Watch What Happens Live and she said she's good with where she's at right now with Portia. They are able to coexist and she's okay with that. And you know what? think that I'm, listen, that's fine. Like just don't try and take each other down. Like that's where, and we have not seen Shemia do that. We haven't seen Shemia.

Kelli (34:46.783)
No. And it's interesting because I forgot, you know, when they flashed back to last season and Angela's the one that told Portia that Shemeah was saying that she felt like it was a lopsided friendship. I do think that's when Portia flipped on Shemeah. I think she flipped on her because Portia realized that Shemeah was having these conversations on camera. And it was putting Portia in a bad light. Yeah. And

Wendy (35:12.952)
That could be.

Kelli (35:16.081)
well, Portia, you showed up to her birthday party in the middle of her getting her car and you made it all about yourself. Like you're not a good friend. Low class, low class.

Wendy (35:23.234)
Right. Right.

Wendy (35:28.684)
Yeah, I mean, and that's when it came out too last season about Shemeah being upset that Portia didn't go to her wedding.

and came out on camera and again, didn't want, poor she didn't want that to happen. She didn't want her to look like she was the bad friend.

Kelli (35:46.419)
Exactly. Yep.

Wendy (35:51.16)
But I think that that is the case.

Kelli (35:51.595)
But she's the show, she's running the show.

Wendy (35:54.754)
Yeah, I don't like it. I don't, I don't like when that happens. I don't. So all right, so now Drew, you're on my list, and Portia, and Angela. I'm not digging you three now. You're on my list.

Kelli (35:56.299)
don't like it either.

Kelli (36:05.855)
No, we don't like how you're moving.

Wendy (36:08.512)
We don't. You know, maybe we should start doing a segment at the end of each one. Who are we not digging this week?

I'm not digging those three. Okay. All So that's who we're not digging this week. So we'll have to see. Let us know in the comments, who are you not digging this week?

Kelli (36:18.049)
Well, those three got. Right.

Kelli (36:30.047)
and feel free to call us out if you disagree with us.

Wendy (36:30.178)
Okay? Yeah. Yeah, you can disagree. You don't have to agree with us.

Kelli (36:36.213)
Yep. All right, well thank you so much for listening and watching. Please follow, share, subscribe, and give us five star reviews. Bye.

Wendy (36:47.5)
