Oh my goodness. I mean, time flies, doesn't it? Truly. Oh my gosh. If you are new here, welcome, welcome, welcome. We love having newbies. Get comfortable and calm. It's the best part of our community is that we get to know each other. We chat together. A lot of us have met before. We make plans to meet before. It is truly so fun. It is not just chatting. It is chatting about things that we're interested in, chatting about each other, praying for each other, celebrating each other, lifting each other up. If you follow me on Instagram live, you will see that one of our chumpets lost their mom yesterday and I've met this person multiple times. She is a beautiful, happy soul who left a long legacy of smiles with everyone who knew her and she was also a Jeff Lewis Live fan. So our hearts go out to her family and it's just gone too soon for sure, for sure, for sure. Obviously, lots of sad news with the New Orleans attack on New Year's Eve, whatever happened in Las Vegas with this Cybertruck, you know, so anyways, and the disgusting Instagram stories from Jen Aiden also, but we are going to get past all of that and just spend an hour together chatting about mindless gossipy stuff and sold on Salt Lake City, Jeff Lewis Live, all the things we do do questions now. So if you, hold on, I'm trying to get this to, loony, why do you want to go out? All of a sudden, you never want to go out, you never want to go out. Anyway, so I will put up the phone number later whenever I open calls and it can be pretty much about anything. That number I believe is free in the U.S. and Canada only, I think you have to pay for other ways to get it, but it is 713-489-8488 and I will put it up very soon. Please make sure to hit the thumbs up and let's get started. Yes, this is definitely our, our happy place for sure. Okay, as always, I had Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper on my TV inside the house, outside the really house, I guess something called college football was going on, whatever, I don't really watch. Didn't really, I never get to listen to Andy and Cooper, Anderson Cooper a lot. I just get to kind of watch, because, you know, we were hosting so many people, a lot of my kids' friends were over, so all that was really fun. I don't know why they didn't just, if they knew it was going to rain, seems to always rain, New Year's Eve in New York, why don't I just put a thing over them, a cover that was out of the sight even of the TV cameras. There must be rules or something. I didn't like that they had to hold their own umbrellas. I think it was hard to manage with the mics, I don't know, the coats, you know, the rain. Anderson's umbrella, he tilted it this way, then all the rain would come down and get all over Andy. It was only about, I think it was like 46, which, you know, I say only, but when it's cold and rainy, that's not a great combination. So I thought that part was kind of annoying, but I just, you know, it was like they were trying to hold it up so it wasn't in the TV line of sight. Just seemed a bit weird. I don't know why they couldn't do that. The only one part I came inside, I was cutting up some fruit and Whitney Cummings was on. I'm like, "Oh, this is cute," whatever. I mean, just eventually, I guess she got into her, her planned routine, whatever her comic bit or whatever she was supposed to say, I wish it was just kind of them chatting back and forth, you know. It just seemed a bit, it just didn't seem to be going well and Anderson Cooper seemed to be super checked out from it. I did see a clip out of Bruce who posted it, but were Andy tried to cheers them at one point, or cheers with Anderson Cooper and take the glasses champagne and do the thing where you wrap around, you know, most people do this on their wedding evening or something like that. Anderson Cooper, as refined as a life as this Vanderbilt man has had, he had no idea what Andy Cohen was trying to do, and so he does this and then he takes the clip super champagne and does this and Andy Cohen just looking at him like, "Dude, you had no idea where he was just like, I don't even know what that was," and I'm like, "Oh my God, I love Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper together, I really do. I love that they can share, you know, raising their kids as single parents together." Actually, I don't think Anderson Cooper raises his kids alone. I think he has a partner, but not a romantic partner that he raises the kids with, I feel like, but obviously Andy Cohen is completely single, so anyway, yes, Liz on the B says, "I love Anderson's giggles." I mean, his giggles are the best, and whether he's been drinking or not, I mean, it was just so good for sure, for sure, for sure. Okay, I am going to put the phone number up, but like I said, we will do that at the very end, we are still trying to work out the technical parks every time I test it, it works. And then the other day we had all these calls coming through, "I had my phone on Do Not Disturb." Duh, so I've got my phone on Do Not Disturb right now. Again, this can be really about anything, celebrity news, my thoughts on something, a question you have about, you know, Jeff Lewis, if we can answer it, advice, I mean, it can really be about any TV show. You know, I probably know a lot about most of them, so anyways, um, what is that doing? Scroll across the bottom ticker. Oh, gotcha, okay, just figuring out all the technology stuff anyways, well, let us know what you did for New Year's Eve, let us know you've had a quiet night, if you had a fun night, a wild night, did you kiss someone at midnight? We did it, I mean, I did kiss my husband, but we did a, well, I didn't even do it. One person at our house got underneath the table and ate 12 grates between 12 a.m. and 12.0.1, it made 12 different wishes, so that was something I never heard of before. I loved that for sure, um, wait, what, oh, okay, um, let me see what else she's in, were you downtown Nashville? Oh gosh, the reveal for a couple, it was novel for a couple years, but now it's just a bit tired jet says, um, it is getting a little bit the same, the Andy and Anderson thing, I do agree, but I think all of them are the same, right? All I know is after we hit, obviously they do the New York one, we're central time in Texas, so then we have to wait for the real, you know, midnight one here, after that they switched over on CNN to some people in Austin, Texas. I mean, God bless them, don't know who they were, don't know who told them the outfits they were wearing was okay, uh, the content was questionable. It was just, I don't know, I was just like, get us a little bit more professed once we turn midnight, you know what I mean? Like the TVs are not off, all the things like it was just odd for sure. Okay, real quick about Jen Aidan's Instagram stories, Jennifer Aidan from Real Housewives of New Jersey, former, I suppose, um, was at the airport. She was holding the phone as if she had nothing better to do, like it was almost like she was making her own reality TV show and she comes on later and she's complaining about a Jimmy John's that was there and then she complains that the line took too long, they got someone's order behind them earlier than their order, I don't know if they had a huge order, I don't know if all five of her kids were with her, I definitely know she showed some of them, some sort of assuming all five of her kids were there. Well, if you're making five, six, seven sandwiches and the person behind you has one, uh, yeah, Jersey Mike, sorry, what did I say? Jersey Mike's? Yeah, I'm more fitting. Anyways, um, you know, that might have been ready early, but they were complaining, she was saying the lady was like she was 80, she was slow, this other guy was basically like don't record me or I will sue you and she was like, my husband is a medical doctor and she was like, and I'm a celebrity and I was so grossed out. The thing is it wasn't like somebody else was recording her and posting this. This was her own self, recording this, knowing she's going to post it, she could have recorded all this and then taken it down or chosen not to record it and post it. And yet she did, like so embarrassing for her kids, her kids have to be teased like crazy and I just, I don't respect someone that does such, uh, questionable, gross, um, actions and in saying I'm a celebrity and knowing that your kids are teenagers and of that age that they're all going to be teased about it. I just thought it was disgusting, you know, for her to act like, oh, my husband's a doctor, and I'm like, well, you clearly are super thirsty and all you want is to be on TV and be recognized. I mean, it's like, she was holding the camera, you could tell out here and she's like looking around, you know, almost like I'm just waiting for someone to recognize me, I'm like, so gross. Yeah, I'll listen to be as like, she has no class whatsoever, for sure. Anyways, okay, I finally sat down and started season one, episode one of sold on Salt Lake City. Like, why is nobody talking about this show? I needed a new luxury real estate reality TV show in my life, like never before. We don't have real a million dollar listing New York anymore. Now, million dollar listing LA is on hold or hiatus, whatever. I totally needed something. I don't know when or if Mauricio's show was coming back, I've given up on that sunset, whatever those people are, I've given up on that. This was everything I needed, especially since it's in Salt Lake City. We've got the Mormons, we've got the people that have left the church, the people that are, they're hot, they're sexy, but they're relatable. I mean, they're selling like, they're big homes, they're big deals, are like in the one and a half to two million dollar range, you know, much more relatable than the 20 to 25 million and now 40 and 50 million that New York and LA were getting to be with million dollar listing. I mean, those were like crazy talk. I was like, how does that even happen? It was crazy. So I loved it, didn't love the Lisa Barlow walk in, like no way in hell was she looking for a house. I thought that was stupid. Sarah, who's this creation realtor that is married to a guy named Chris at an opposite company was the one that was showing her houses. And then Lisa Barlow was like, well, we need a really nice garage. We need a gift room. We need this. We needed that. I mean, it was just like on and on on like Lisa Barlow, do you even have the money for this? Like, what are we talking about? Like, seriously. Um, so that part was stupid, but that's about it. There's Tina, who's the hot, super confident, gorgeous and very proud of her boobies. Uh, ex Mormon now lesbian, boss bitch, love her so much, she's having a very unprofessional conversation with the owner of this company, Jennifer though, which I'm so here for. I'm like, if y'all want to do that, great. I don't even know. Matt, what can I say about Matt? Um, didn't expect him to be married to a woman, okay, and have boo coos of children. But I loved that they, they are showing these people's houses. They're very realistic looking houses. I don't know what they cost, you know, they look like 500 to $800,000 houses. I don't really know. I have no idea what real estate costs, but they look like more of an average house than these other, you know, real housewives of Salt Lake City houses. He's married to a beautiful woman for a long time, Mormon, multiple children, but he talks about the downside in the realistic part of real estate in his job where they've had to downsize and his wife works and he's not making as much money as he wants to. Like, I thought it was really, I don't know, I just, I, I loved millions are listing New York when like Ryan, sir, hand was single and they would show him working out, but I think a lot of them lived in apartments, they couldn't necessarily afford. I love that they show Tina's house and it just looks like a, I mean, they're beautiful. Don't get me wrong. They're beautiful. I mean, it's not a normy house like mine, but for reality TV, they're normy houses. Like even the owner Jennifer, she's got a beautiful like five bedroom, five and a half bedroom house with her husband. It's beautiful, but she's at least the owner of the, the real estate company or whatever it's called. But they're showing me things like a Costco door. I mean, I don't know if that's a Utah thing. I loved it, basically it's like this little bitty door that goes straight into the floor of the pantry where whatever the layout of this house is you don't have to lug all that big heavy stuff in. And for a very Mormon heavy state like Utah, generally lots of kids and bad weather days where you can't just run to Costco all the time, they might have bottles of water and bottles of this and you know, cans of green beans and such, right? So this little pantry door is called a Costco door and it doesn't work for the layout of my house because you basically can walk into my house and see the pantry. So I don't really need a, there's no side there. It just doesn't make sense for mine, but anyways, I love that for sure. At the very end though, Jennifer, who's the owner of the real estate company, goes over to Sarah and Chris's house and they're going to have a talk about poaching. Basically, we've all learned about this in all the shows we've watched. Realtors tend to go to different real estate, but you know, different percentage, different more clients, different location, I don't even know what, but they just tend to switch around a lot and it doesn't seem like Jennifer likes it and she's got lots of history with like being disappointed in her life. So now she feels like professionally, she's being disappointed with these people leaving. Two of them at least we know have been divorced, which is obviously a big deal in the Mormon world, but they were also, it's Tina and Jennifer. They were both married in the temple. So that's like a huge deal for sure. So let me know if you're watching it, give me a, give me a thumbs up if you're watching it. Um, news, layout, I don't know what I did. Anyways, um, I feel like I just now made a chance to watch it. I think they're on episode three, I think I'm going to really like it. Like at first I was like, oh, I don't have room in my brain for more reality TV people, but then I was like, oh, I don't know, Matt's just cute enough and he gets like, bro talks, um, he tans himself, he looks good, you know, he's very metro like, but then he's married with all these kids and I'm like, okay, you know, um, anyway, so, uh, you know, they're all hot, they all, but they're not like overly done. Like you can tell they know they're on TV and what have you, of course, they're wearing heels and driving a freshly cleaned car and all this stuff, but it's not just overdone. I feel like it's a good mix between like real housewives of New York and real, uh, million dollar listing New York. You know what I mean? It's just kind of a, oh, does it get boring? So don't tell me this is going to be one where the first episode is better than the rest of them. I don't know, uh, wait, the hospital census, um, oh, maybe is maybe sick, a grandson is unwell, but bigger things going on in the world, always people worse off. Oh, maybe I hope your baby boy is soon, uh, better soon, your grandbaby. Okay. Let's chat today's Jeff Lewis live, Kiki Monique, think the first time she's ever been on. She is the Monday host of reality checked. As you know, it's been gosh, about a year, year and a half that Amy Phillips hasn't been the full time host of reality checked. They went for a long time having like guests come in, figured out who they were going to have. Now they have kind of a mixture every day. So Kiki Monique is on Mondays. She's probably more better known as talk of shame on tick, talk and Instagram, like she's huge on those. She was so good, such a good mix of like, taking, taking in, tweaking in her personal life, her professional life, like, um, I don't think they talked enough about reality shows, but I think they do that or not. And it's kind of an hiatus going on now with Bravo anyways in the holidays, um, talked about New York, uh, New York, New Year's Eve. She talked about Soho house. I had no idea. She pays for Soho house and that tells me she's got some money. She's got some money in the bank because those are like, they call it a house, but I think it's a restaurant bar, right? When you pay a money, you pay a fee and a monthly membership or a, you know, every few months membership to be able to attend and yet still pay is that what these places like Soho house are. I would never know. Um, anyways, but I thought she was really good on with Michael Beck. Um, Michael Beck, uh, apparently likes a guy. So he hung out with a bunch of his lesbian friends, this New Year's Eve. That way he wasn't tempted to kiss anyone. Wow. Soho house is like 50,000 a year or more. She said that she only pays for access to the one house. So she pays about, would she say 700 or 900 every three months? So that's nowhere near 50,000, but that's still rich money for sure. I mean, to pay for the option to go somewhere is, you know, is rich money. I think she will because Jen Helens has, I hope Kiki comes back. I think she will because for one thing, it's all inter promotion, right? Radio Andy, but clearly if she starts coming back once a week, then I'll be like, Jeff, what are you talking about? Because you already said that serious exam radio Andy doesn't like that. They kind of had this unofficial rule where they don't want the same guests on every week on the show. So, you know, since she's on every Monday, if she started being a regular every week on Jeff Lewis live, but does it matter because nothing was said today. Nothing at all. He took no phone calls, nothing about the Trump virus. He didn't update us on the phone call that was supposed to take place. So the phone call was supposed to be. So remember, Monday, let me think, Monday, they did their two shows. He said later today, I have a phone call with the Trump virus and some other people because HR has now gotten involved. So but that's the day they also did the pre record for Tuesday, New Year's Eve, right? Because it was not going to be open for New Year's Eve. Christmas Eve is more of a religious holiday. So serious exam was open for that and he could do a live show, but New Year's Eve, they were going to be closed and he had to do the pre record on Monday. So things we know are good with Kelly Dodd and Rick, if you saw the video I made last night, I was finally made time for the video that they took days to put up for some reason. So the day after Christmas, December 26, Jeff and Shane were in town and they were doing their live show and then they were going to fly out to Tahoe for their family vacation. So that was recorded the video like normal in LA, but it wasn't put up for days. And then somebody said they finally reached out to, I think, Jamison, and he said, oh, do we put up Monday or something like that? So for some reason, that one went days without being put up. So I happened to look last night whenever I had some time and I'm watching the December 26 and on the pre show, everyone was trying to convince me that it was John Hill, not Justin Martindale. And I'm like, I don't know, I'm so confused. I go down the rabbit hill that it's Justin Martindale, then I start thinking, oh, maybe it is John Hill. And at the beginning of the December 26, Jeff Lewis video, Shane walks in with multiple copies of John Hill's calendar and Jeff is like, oh, did we pay him for that? And then a few seconds later, they make a joke, Shane makes a joke about putting up the calendar and something about, you can kind of mumbles it, something about the Kelly Dodd, John Hill feud. So if John Hill was the Trump virus and Kelly Dodd was the female that he texted something very aggressive, very out of line, very rude and disrespectful, that's gotten HR involved, they would not have been joking about this on December 26 because we know this was already going on. That's something he said, whoever this Trump virus is, has had a series of infractions, so it's definitely something that's going on. Eliza says, I'm going with the theory of Justin and Jade Catapretta, as someone mentioned on Sarah's Instagram post, well, we know Jade is not in trouble. And I don't think the female that this Trump virus texted is in trouble because they're the ones that apparently that were, you know, upset, whatever. So Jade is one of the ones that will be at cooking kibbutts next week. So we know that's good, Kelly and Rick will be there. I mean, he mentioned a lot of people did not mention, I don't think he mentioned Joey or Justin. So I don't really know. Um, yes, Mayboo says, sounds like it's Kelly and John, but surprises me that Kelly hasn't screamed it out by now. Let's see. I just don't think it is. I don't think it is. Think it's Justin. Yeah. I don't know. Um, but he and Annie, I think, know each other. Like I know they do. I mean, you know, Annie used to work for me. Um, I don't know, it's interesting for sure. Okay. So Jeff didn't say much about Ty, the guy from Dallas, but they did spend New Year's Eve together a couple of days. He said everything went well. He is really not giving us information about him though. I mean, not really much at all. So anyways, um, what did he say about Kean though? So Kean today is his first day back at Jeff Lewis Live. Did he say he's a producer? I feel like a couple of months ago, Jeff was talking about hiring his own producer to like get guests and things. The thing about that, Kean, I've met him a couple of times in person. He is very quiet. He is not outgoing. I mean, unless something changed drastically, he is not an outgoing person. He's not super extrovert. Uh, it didn't ever seem like he wanted to be on Mike on the Jeff Lewis Live show, whereas Annie seems fine being on Mike. Annie was on Mike sometimes with a juicy scoop when she was on. Like she has no problem. She's, I've met her obviously and she's very outgoing, or at least way more outgoing than Kean appears to me. So I don't know, but he's got some changes. Was he saying that Monica, did he mean Monica Monica? It's going to be his house manager now for two days a week. Like I just, I, I can't even imagine Monica would need the money to be his house manager or why she would want like she's known Jeff for years. I can't imagine she would want to be his employee in that aspect. Although she is very organized and he's paid her to clean out closets and clean out toys and stuff. So I guess, yeah, is that what they're saying? So Susan, welcome Susan. So Monica Casey is now the part time house manager since Nancy left. So Nancy was the one that was on TV on flipping out, very organized ex police officer. All this stuff was a great house manager for him. Never had too much of this, not enough of this, had the goldfish, had the waters all lined up, all the things, Nancy and her partner retired to the OC, so just the drive didn't make sense. I mean the OC to West Hollywood to be a house manager. So then she agreed to do it once a week, but then she decided the drive was too much. So it seems like, yeah, Monica Casey is going to do it two days a week, which is kind of weird. Oh, Nick James says, I feel like Kean is there because of the new show and the work. He needs people he can trust. Okay, because of the new show, oh, the TV show, yeah, I don't know, I was confused on that for something on that. Wait, what? Maboo says, am I completely wrong? Or was Annie on a podcast with a man a few weeks back? Moned about Heather McDonald or what someone else. So Annie and her boyfriend about a podcast for a while. I think they started it maybe after I didn't need her services anymore. I don't really remember. I mean, I loved her services. They just weren't making any money for me, but she has a podcast with her boyfriend and she definitely did a podcast and definitely talked about Heather McDonald and.

Monica hasn't really been on Jeff Lewis live a lot lately. So I thought maybe she was so busy. I don't know. Okay, Raquel says he called it a radio producer. So I remember one time he kind of moaned somebody made a mistake or didn't didn't get the updated information and he was like, look, we've got Shane, we've got Jameson, I think he mentioned Oscar. I'm not sure, but he was like, look, I'm just going to get somebody specifically to be a producer for me and they will book my guests and all that kind of stuff because I don't think he got that whenever he did the new deal for for for serious exam anyways, Michael talks about this sex Psalm, you know, which they've talked about before and some callers called him was like, Oh, yeah, my husband does that. It's like you're asleep, like, like sleep walking, sleep eating. It's like sleep. So Michael Beck admitted he does this and it's been like an issue with his partners in the past because, you know, it's like your sound asleep and it's like, Whoa, what's going on? So that was kind of interesting. On the second hour was Kristen Tateman, who hadn't been on in a while because she's been on vacations and, you know, she's got two teenage kids. They're off school. I'm sure Doug buten was on with her. It felt like Kristen talks a lot in the beginning of the show. She likes to drive. They take these 14 hour drive each way. I hate driving, I don't hate 14 hours each way is that's long to go to Aspen in, but at least you can carry all your stuff. That part of it I agree with with driving vacations. You could just carry all your stuff and we're skiing and it doesn't matter. It didn't feel like she talked much later. But Doug was talking about, you know, mom's burial is already planned and paid for and like the local mechanic got buried there on accident and like Doug's a okay with this. I have never heard of a volunteer cemetery. I thought it was all for profit. So I don't, it's something with a church but then there's a Jewish section of the cemetery. I don't know, I thought that was very odd for sure. Oh, yeah, some of the guests, even Sarah Kelowna was on like days later. Michael Beck was too soon again, LOL. I mean, yeah, you know what I mean, wow, Southern Bell sales from Florida. It takes 14 hours from South Florida Nashville. Yeah, that's a long, it's so long. Yeah, do you all think he needs to have four guests anymore? I do feel like the circle, Tiffany Chump says the circle is getting smaller. I just feel like Jeff has talked about boundaries for a long time and cutting off people in situations before he gives people multiple, multiple chances. So I do think the two hours, I think it's long, it's a lot to squeeze into a day. I don't know, who was it last week and I feel like they were, was it the same people? Did you have the same people on for two hours last week? Oh, would it have been when they were in the Friday show or whatever it was when they were in Tahoe? Was it like his dad and his brother in them? Who was on them? I can't really remember, but I feel like they obviously didn't have as many guests there because nobody extra was in like Tahoe with them. Jet says it's long to try to catch up on the weekends. Yeah, I mean, and the good news is if you listen on the delay, you can fast forward through all the commercials because they got the little 15 second break, you know what I mean? Michael Riley says, I don't work and it's too much for me to listen to. It's a lot, don't get me wrong, it's been an adjustment as you all know, I was going Instagram live and then all the platforms chatting about Jeff Lewis, but when it became two hours a year and a half ago, it's like, whoa, this is a big different, I mean, doubling the amount of time to listen to. Dee says, I have a friend whose father died and then in the middle of the graveside service, he noticed that they were putting in his father and his uncle's plot. Wow, I mean, in all the stuff, I hope they could fix it by then, but you know, what Doug was saying was up in the northeast, you have to like put like a concrete barrier around because the ground, you know, doesn't, whatever. I don't know. Oh, oh my gosh, Mayboo, shout out Harley, how are you, boo boo, I hope you feel better. Oh my goodness, I hope you feel better, Harley, I know you're in your grandma's arms. Mayboo says, I'm sitting here watching you holding my congested son, grandson Harley, he's really focused and interested, I think we have a new baby chump. Oh my goodness, Harley, oh my gosh, what is it about babies, right, they're so cute. Oh, okay, Cynthia said, yes, so someone DM me early, was there something with Reddit? Okay, so I did, whoo, I did get an email, a very long email, very long email sent to asksarafromtexas@gmail.com and I have heard of this person's name before, she, it's her first and last name, that's the name I was given before on someone that was like, hey, this person is the Reddit person that started this hate group about you. She's in your Facebook group, I was like a letter B, you know, whatever. So she sends me a very, I won't show it, a very long email, basically it said, this is me, the mug from your Reddit hate sub. I think I'm finally going to let you know something that I found out months ago, I was really close to exposing this about Melanie that I always felt bad, she's talking about Melanie McQueen who used to be the admin, or I don't know what it's called, but like to help me out on here, she offered to do it to like if people were being rude in the comments, wherever you could like pause them or what have you. And she was an admin on the Sarah from Texas Facebook group. As you all know, a lot of y'all know, notice her and commenting and all these things I used to talk to her on the phone about Jeff Lewis stuff, about family stuff, about, you know, moms pass, I mean, lots of things, you know, I consider her a friend, although I'd never met her. This person said, I used to talk to her on TikTok in the DMs, then she turned on me, which I know why she did that. And basically it's like this girl, H, I'll say, has been on Reddit a long time, she has lots of different accounts, she's been on different things, she said it's very easy to figure out people's Reddit account, she says, I've even figured out Donna Bowling's Reddit accounts and how Donna Bowling was one, she says, making up the stories that I was trolling Monroe's or school, which I absolutely was not. Anyways, as you all know, I'm not on Reddit, I've never had a Reddit account. If y'all send me screenshots, I'll look at them, but I don't do Reddit, never have done Reddit. So no one's ever going to find my Reddit because I don't have one. Anyways, and it says, you'll want to know that she's talking so much shit about you. This is talking about Melanie. It's insane how much she hates, how much hate she has towards you. After talking shit about you on Reddit, she then goes to Facebook and pretends to be your friend. It was so bizarre watching this and it's been going on for a while. And basically then it's saying Donna Bowling did the same thing. I noticed everything from the beginning. She disowned you. She just messed up what she did to you. You should expose her, it says. If you don't want to do that, I'll do it for you. Just email me. She said I also made a Donna Bowling hate subreddit too. And then she sends me all these pictures. I guess it's a name on fickle something, fickle, and then the name of a Reddit account that's basically proving why she thinks this is Melanie. I don't think I haven't read everything. I don't think she said anything bad that she said about me. But here's one where it says, I guess they take pictures of me, you know, a picture of me from my show and then they'll comment about me, I don't know, over on whatever. Her confidence and delusion are both very well documented. So anyways, it was a very, very long email, like lots of stuff. It was, I did not reply back to the person. But I started thinking about like people, mostly TikTok will be like, oh, I love you on TikTok, but I'm kind of afraid of all the negativity. And then I started thinking, you know what, I've been out for the New Year. A lot of people are like, oh, this would be great to like do a TikTok or be, you know, an influencer, content creator, whatever. And I was like, just be aware because I truly had no earthly idea what I was getting into. When I started going Instagram live to chat about Jeff Lewis, June of 2021, on a whim, I instantly got rude comments under my videos so publicly people could read them and private DMs that were so rude. And at that point, it was mostly Jeff Lewis live fans that just thought it was stupid of me to do a recap and chat about Jeff Lewis. I'm like, well, great, don't watch. Don't be included. Like no one's forcing you to watch. It's free on Instagram. It was so weird. And then it's obviously progressed. And then I kind of realized, oh my God, like it's literally people's part time job to be super rude to people for literally no reason. Like, if you're not interested in celebrity news, if you don't want to chat reality TV, if you don't watch Jeff Lewis or you don't think there should be a chat about it, then don't join. It's so weird. But then the backstabbing the, you know, creators that would pretend to be nice to me. And then they would go on an Instagram live and blast me. I was like, wait, what, like nobody, that was nobody's experience. Like you are making that shit up about me. And then obviously I had a co-host that went a complete 180 on me in one day. Like if you would have told me this co-host would have said or did all of these things in the future for two years about me, I would have never believed it 10 hours earlier. But there was zero animosity, zero anger, zero jealousy, nothing going on between us. It was shocking, shocking, but you know, but now it's almost like when I tell you it's changed me, it's made me so hesitant to trust people, not in my real life because no one does this bullshit to me in my real life. Because people that have done this that I've thought we'd become friendly and people that would act nice and be like, oh, I can't believe that person said that about you. And now I'm told they go and say worse about me on Reddit. So it's just, it's beyond disappointing. But you know, as you'll know, last January, I hosted an event that don't get me started on the backstabbing and the deceit from the producer of that that contacted me to do this. But anyways, after the event and what I thought were friends that I'd met from doing this and just, you know, blasted me and left me out in the cold basically, I don't know, basically I guess because people were making fun of us, which I have nothing to do with anyone making fun of us. I would never promote that. I would never be a part of that. I'm not rude to people. I do genuinely love people. I love, love, love including people and making people feel welcome, but I do it for myself too. I mean, I have no one to talk about this stuff with. My kids don't watch these reality shows. They don't give a shit about Jeff Lewis. They don't watch our housewives of Salt Lake City. They don't know who some new Morgan is. They don't think it's hilarious when I go to a Tom, you know, Saint of All Concert. They don't want to come. I mean, you know, so I love our community. I love chatting with y'all. But when I find, when I learn over and over and over that the people were nice to me and then they're being mean about me, I'm like, for what reason, like they don't even give me the respect to have a conversation with me, you know, and say, hey, you did this or you said, I mean, no one's perfect, but I never even get it. It's like they almost find joy in becoming part of a hater group, the lover group, against me. I mean, it's beyond hurtful, but it's made me question like, what the hell am I doing? I just want to have fun with this and chat with people. And then the hate and the negativity was becoming so crazy, like legit crazy. So yeah, it's very crazy. Kimberly Joyce says, I'm so sorry, Sarah. This is when I fell in love with you. How you handled all that shit was so admirable out of you. Y'all have no idea how much I've kept from you. So much craziness behind this and you wouldn't even believe it. It's crazy. I mean, D says, yeah, you have to stay out of the comments. Just enjoy what you do. I get that, but that's part of what I love doing is chatting and comments. And also when I read comments, I never know that it's going to be something mean. You know what I mean? I go to respond or a question or to like something, whatever. And if I read something mean, to be honest with you, I think 90% of it is over on Reddit or the mean Facebook groups making fun of me. I don't know. I'm not in those. I'm not trust me. Nobody's looking out for the mean stuff. I'm like, ooh, but it is very true when I shared months and months ago this podcast that somebody recommended I listen to and it really had an effect on me. And it really was like, you know, as a content creator, it's such a weird space, but you might read 100 really nice things like, oh, love your show, have so much fun, da da da. The one mean thing is what resonates and as much as I don't want that to happen, it really does happen. And I had to start thinking about, you know, people says, don't give people your phone number. But it's not about that because I talked to people on Instagram, too. I don't care about the phone number thing. It's the fakeness at what point I'm not doing this to fake have relationships. I'm doing this. I really, I've met so many of y'all. I mean, y'all know that I have, you know, I've had breakfast with you, lunch, dinner, a drink. I mean, shows, bravo con. I mean, I love all of this stuff, but I love like taking us out of the social media part of it. You know what I mean? Like, even just getting a comment, getting to know people. I want to know that Mebu's grandson, Harley is congested and he's in her arms watching the show with us. I want to know that stuff. I think that's so cute. I don't do a podcast to sit and talk on a microphone to myself. I want to do it with y'all. And I want y'all to get to know each other and be friends. But when I find out that over and over again, it's just shocking, annoying. Anywho. Okay. Enough with that. Somebody asked. There it is. Okay. We are going to see if the phone thing will work. If anyone has calls, if they want to be on, if they don't want to be on, don't call. But if you do, it is 713-489-8488, just say where you're your name, where you're calling from. If you want to make up a name, absolutely do it. Thank you. Krista says, "The people who know you know your heart. We know who you are. Don't listen to the haters." That's true. The one that turns on me, I didn't think was a hater. You know what I mean? Yeah. So weird. So weird. You did. Michael Riley sang to me. He says, "I love Sarah." And that's why I sent her my song, New Year's Eve. He did. He sang to me. The New Year's Eve. What is it? Whatever the song is, the famous one. I think it's really good too. Anyways, Jen says, "Sarah, you should go and check how many people Melanie blocked from joining or commenting on your YouTube podcast. She even bought me for a while for nothing. So, but see, I never knew any of that anyways. I don't think... Let me look. I don't know how to look up all that stuff, settings. Give me one second. I'm doing something. Anyways. I don't think I have any, anyways, anyways, I don't think I have anyone as part of my thing on in here anymore, but I will double check that for sure. Anyways. And I don't know what to believe. I mean, people, you know, I don't know what to believe. So, what does my video seem to be delayed? Great. Anyways. Yeah, the one that used to be in here. Yeah. Not the Melanie. That's a whole other thing because people have told me things about her too, the Melanie that invited me to the $10,000 dinner. So, so weird. Tiffany Champs says, "Have you reached out to Melanie or has she reached out to you? I still see her on the Facebook page all the time. I have not. I have not. I know." I think she had told me that she had been involved in some things in the past and that people might start saying bad things about her. I think she had admitted that she was talking with this person that emailed me and she regretted it. Yeah, but I definitely didn't know that she was saying awful thing. If she was. This is all alleged. I have no idea how to prove anything. And nowadays people can fake anything. They could have made up an account that looks like hers. I have no idea. Oh, I love that. Yeah. Mary, no idea. She says, "I was wondering what happened to Melanie the $10,000 dinner person." I don't know. The last time I think I called her old saint, yeah, however that is, "Yes, Jett says that all seems so petty like high school BS drama that you don't need." It's more like seventh grade trauma. Good question. Southern Bell sells, "What's the motive of your haters sending you that email?" I think she said, "I had wanted you to know this for a while that basically this person was acting all nice and everything and yet she was actually being really mean about me on Reddit and that she figured it out. She wanted me to know." So does my video seem delayed on y'all where it gets like, "If I do this, it's going to drop me nuts." Anyways. "Melanie knew you could carry the conversation and make it a fun night," Michael Raleigh says. I mean, we had so much fun though. We really did. Yeah, it's choppy. Isn't it mean weird? My wifi is fine. No idea. A little staticky. You don't seem delayed to me, okay. Thank you. Krista says, "Don't let the evil people change you. Please keep being you. I am me and it's just so, yes, it's two different melodies. Yes, one melody in her husband invited me to the $10,000 dinner, lives in a different state, all of that. But people would say about Melanie the $10,000 dinner one, she said she probably couldn't take all the hate. You're talking about that one, she was posting up a storm in Reddit because people were sending me pictures of it, defending herself, so she had no problem hanging out in Reddit. She wasn't defending me, but she, yeah. Michael Raleigh, yeah. Interesting. Interesting. Well, we have about five more minutes. Do we have any calls? I know. Mebu. I know. I know. Trust me. Any calls, 713-489-8488, it can really be about anything. It's weird. I mean, even when I had the co-host, I had like 1,500 Instagram followers. I mean, it was like, talk about a big fat nobody. I'm like, why, you know, people, it was just the craziest thing. Yeah, Krista says we all got full, so scary. In a lot of that, I leave to myself, but this email was so shocking. So, let's see if we have a call. Hello. Hi. Oh, look. Hold on. I got to pick your own speaker. I still get used to this. Hey. Hey. Hi. Who is this? This is Amy. I'm just going to get you to your podcast. Oh, welcome. What you've done, are daily doses done for about a year, and some of this thing, some really mean spirits that take it hard at an idea of life. Gotcha. And, yeah, I'm going to have to let her lose. And I have seen you before, but then I talk to myself, I'm going to go to sign Texas. Thank you for your channel, because, you know, you get stuck on one podcast, and I'm not one of those people that watch a hundred podcasts. Yeah, for sure. I mainly watch Mia Kelly and Rick, and then I watch Donna, but Donna is now, she said, "I can't watch her anymore, Jack, that she so means this, so they didn't know she was about me." Yeah. What's your favorite TV shows? You know, my favorite director, I saw, like, say, "Oh, okay. Do you wish Monica was back?" He saw, like, a monster, I mean, even though I did enjoy life. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one that admits to watching how you take Beyonce. It's so, it's like, someone says you can't hear the caller. Okay. I've got the phone up to the microphone. I think they should be able to hear well. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just hearing that there's a lot that's playing right now, something's real whenever you're talking about 90 days. Awesome. Well, I definitely talked about it, what is it, Thursday, on Tuesday? Yeah. New Year's Eve. So, if you didn't catch that one, you can go back and watch it either on the YouTube channel or the podcast there from Texas. Awesome. And I just want to say to you that I think you have a really sweet, genuine energy. Oh, thank you so much, Amy. You do. Do you think I'm starting to pick up on that energy? Yeah. And I'm actually disappointed with myself that I didn't pick up on that energy earlier. But, you know, better late than another. Yeah. I mean, from a viewer part and from a content creator part, it's, it's, I don't know, it's you, I don't know. It's hard to be like, it's hard to have a truth and then somebody say something that's not the truth. And then people believe it. You're like, wait, what is, you know, I just let them be. I just want to let you know that you have really sweet, genuine energy. Well, thank you for calling, Amy. Thank you. Awesome. I hope to see you every day at four o'clock Eastern. Yes. Happy new year. Hope to meet you sometime. Yes. Thank you for calling, Amy. Okay. You too. Don't. Don't. Don't. Thank you. I won't. Thank you. Bye. Okay. That was sweet. Um, yeah. Yeah. Yes. The 10 color, oh, Krista says the $10,000 dinner Melanie has disappeared, but is not the cruel Melanie who has been nasty on Reddit. Um, well, I don't know that she's disappeared. I mean, she definitely goes to events and stuff. So anyways, but who knows, it's just crazy, crazy, crazy. I don't know who Amy is on the chat. It's so interesting. That was Amy. I don't know ever names that, you know, her name could be different on Instagram and then YouTube and then whatever. Um, I assume she's on the chat. I don't know. Amy, are you here? It was very sweet of you to call. Um, and that's not what I mean to do. I don't mean for anyone to, you know, rag on anyone else, whatever, but it does affect me when things happen in untruths or, you know, things are set or done or I feel scammed, you know, so it's kind of weird. Um, I mean, I could call Melanie says, so maybe you'll see Melanie at the next event and talk to her. Um, I don't know, I probably wouldn't put comfortable just knowing some of the things I've been told and who she hangs around with that have made it very clear. Uh, they don't like me now after the January event because people were saying bad things about them. And I'm like, but I had nothing to do with that. I didn't encourage that. I didn't even know about it. So crazy. Um, not really, not really. Um, Jay says, hi Sarah, I think Donna B. didn't want the competition from you. See, she seems very job, but there's no competition. I mean, it's like, you know, um, yeah, anyways, enough of the negativity somebody else was calling and I don't know if they were, um, if they meant to call or not. I will call back and we'll just see if they were trying to call. Oh, I don't think that worked. Hold on. I told you we're getting used to this. It was showing up at different zip codes. I don't think there was a zip code that I wanted, um, to do anyways. Um, well, thank you so much for joining. I hope we have an awesome year here together, share lots of news together, chat about our favorite shows. Um, I'd love the advice thing. I would really love to get more into that. I do love that for sure. Um, in the calls, I do love the calls and I will never stop wanting to get to know people because I, I'm not a surface level like high house at going. I'm always going to want to know more and I know so much about all of you and I chat with y'all in the DMs on the phone, on Instagram phone calls in such that it's just, um, a little upsetting when it doesn't work out. Um, but anyways, hello. Hi Sarah. Hi Sarah. Uh, another, are you Sarah with an H? Yeah, I'm a Sarah without an H. Oh, I'm going to tell you a happy new year and thank you for doing what you do. You're wonderful. We love you. Oh, thank you, Sarah. I really appreciate it. Where do you live? I live in Central North Carolina. Ooh, pretty. Okay. Well, thank you so much for joining and I look forward to having so much fun together in 2025. Yes. Yes, Stephanie. Thank you. Bye Sarah. Bye. Oh, I love phone calls. I'm sort of loving it. Another one? Is this the same one? I don't know. Same area. Go maybe. Hello. Maybe not. Maybe that was the wrong one. Anyways, okay. Well, we will get off. I will see you tomorrow for PM Eastern and then we will start back up again next week. Should be every day like normal last week and this week with a little off with the Christmas Day holiday and the New Year's Day holiday. Thank you for being so awesome and I will see y'all tomorrow.
