Like, I'm pissed.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to everything iconic with me, Danny Pellegrino.

That was in a clip from this week's episode of The Real House of Orange County.

Instead, that was one from the archives of Shannon Storm's Bador.

You guys will all see the truth. We'll all see the

truth. Stop it. Stop it. No.

I was going through memory lane, of course, this week on the podcast because the actual

episode that aired with the Real House of Orange County, it's our penultimate episode.

Next week's the season finale. And look, I want to give these gals the benefit of doubt because I had heard that the Amsterdam trip was so good. It was so incredible TV. And maybe it will be in the finale next week because it does look like some good stuff is coming in the finale. But as it stands, I hate to say, because I don't want to start the podcast off in a negative

note. I don't want to come on the microphone and always be downer about these women. And I know people

get mad when I say, oh, I didn't like the episode or something. People say, why are you doing that show?

To get off that show, why are you recording episodes if you don't like that?

People get really intense about the housewife recaps. And I understand we all love these gales.

And week after week, I don't want to have to come on the microphone. And earlier in the season,

I was saying how good it was. And yet, I'm watching the Amsterdam trip and I'm like,

what are we doing here? It seems like this random group of people are all together. They don't want to be on a trip together. They just seem to be miserable. And there's no real through line. And we're still sort of talking about stuff that's not on the show. We're talking about Alexis. And Alexis ain't even on this show. So are they bringing her back next season? It's like, why are we even discussing Alexis's wedding as it stands? Because Alexis hasn't been on since last season. Then we're talking about how Jen might be going to Alexis's wedding. So why are we talking about that if Alexis ain't on the show? Bring her in the finale. Send her to Amsterdam, if we got to. I don't know. But we open this week. So anyway, all that's to say, all that's to say, I'm going to try my best to be in a good mood. And the weird thing is I am actually in a really good mood. I mean, I woke up in bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. And so I was excited. But then you watch the episode. I'm like, oh, what am I going to say about it? Because for how many weeks have we been doing the Real House of Orange County recaps? And by the end of the season, I'm like, oh, what am I going to say about it? Because for how many weeks have we been doing the Real House of Orange County Recaps? And by the end of the season, I'm like, what else can I say? I've said everything about I can about Shannon's antics. Like, I'm pissed. When she's got to do a montage of her foot. Her hoof again, every week I got a montage of her traveling with one foot out the shoe.. The hoof is ruined. She's got to put band-aid. She said she's got to put a thin band-aid on one of the hoofs because, hooves, anyway, we open on Amsterdam. Shannon can't even get the window open. She said she's still high from the space cake. And look, God bless. I mean, I can only imagine. I've never been to the Amsterdam.

And it would be fun. I sort of wish that all the gals participated in the space cake all together on camera. But I was also wondering about the logistics of filming. Even when Gina and Heather were

taking the mushroom stuff, I was thinking, oh, I wonder if production is pissed about that,

or if they worry about that, or if it's some sort of, like, liability issue. I know these reality productions aren't covered

in SAG, but they are sort of set up, so I just wonder, like, where is... And in Amsterdam, it's legal, so I'm not saying it's an illegal drug, but I wonder insurance-wise, is there an issue or anything like that filming-wise?

Is it a problem with...

If they are doing any sort of drugs or anything,
