Welcome to the high and love podcast. This is your host, Bravo, Bravo, Docking Bravo, and we are going to do a double recap of Orange County. I've been saving them up. I wasn't excited to watch it last week. I was like, I got to wait. Let me just wait. Let me let them pile up and I'll do a double. That's what we're doing. I'm starting with episode. I don't even know what episode this is anymore because Bravo's doing this thing

where they're adding the watch what happens lives as episodes. So I don't know what episode number

we're on. I'm not going to go back and count from number one. We're doing the one where the title

of it is defense is the best offense. Are you happy Peacock?

I want to add a little bit more chaos into my existence. But this one I thought was a good

episode. I enjoyed it, maybe because it was like self-defense based. And I really wish that I had

like amazing self-defense classes. And then also that I had like a brother who would jump out randomly and try to like take me to a secondary location and I have to figure out how to get out of it. I almost wish they had like a fully immersive experience where like you book a vacation and it's like here's what we're going to do. We're going to do self-defense. Then we're going to, you can nap as much as you want also. When you're not self-defencing,

you can nap and read and get spa services. That's it. That's all I want. But I just watched that

episode. For anybody who didn't, I'm going to do a very quick rundown of it before I jump into the

next episode. In the beginning, we see Ryan and Jen talking about their wedding details. And yes,

of course, he is wearing a funky little jacket. Ryan does not come on this show without a funky little jacket. This time, it's like a white

baseball kind of a kind of a uniform type jacket. I don't know how to describe it to you. It's sporty.

And they're talking about how their wedding, much like Ryan's jacket, is not going to be an upscale

stuffy event. It's very informal. Like, she was almost dressing me out because nothing is really planned. And she's like, I don't know, should we move it? And, you know, I think she really wants to move it. She said also because her son, the one that's joining the military, I think he's joining the Marines, he goes away in June. And so she's trying to have the

wedding now before that so he can be a part of it or at least be there. And she's stressing that this

one is going to be very low key because her first wedding, she described it as being extremely

formal, you know, church, the whole thing. So this time, she's like, yeah, I'll just get married

in a bikini, a backyard, whatever. So they're figuring it out. So this time, she's like, yeah, I'll just get married in a bikini, a backyard,

whatever. So they're figuring it out. And per usual of late, Ryan was extremely interested in what

she had to say, asking her about her trip, super attentive, good listener. Like, they have a good

dynamic going right now, which we love to see. No matter how we feel about whatever they're doing

off camera and whatever dynamics they have going on, glad to see her happy in a relationship. She also talked to Ryan about the trip. You know, there was a whole drama between Shannon and Tamara because Tamara brought up like, well, didn't your father drink? And the look on Shannon's face. When Tamara said that, you know that was like a deep, dark secret that she had shared with her in confidence, you know, some time before.
