| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Is This Real Life, a Bravo podcast that relates our favorite shows to our own lives in the world around us. |
| 0:18.5 | I'm your host, Mandy Slutszer. Let's get to it. |
| 0:21.7 | We are in the final month of the year |
| 0:41.1 | 2021. I know it's been a rough year for a lot of people. And people's seasonal depression is |
| 0:47.9 | kicking into high gear. So I don't know about you all, but, you know, one of the only things |
| 0:54.0 | that has gotten me through |
| 0:54.9 | the last few weeks is Selling Sunset Season 4 and Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. |

| 2:11.7 | Yeah, there's just not a whole lot there. |
| 2:13.4 | Even the victims, they were associated with, or they were victimized by companies that are |
| 2:20.9 | associated with Jen Shaw, but they are not named in any of the, I guess, current legal |
| 2:26.7 | battles against her. So it was just hard to make the distinction that like these people were victimized by Jen. |
| 2:37.3 | And because it appears that her and Stewart were selling leadless to people that would then |
