It's your daily dose of Donna Friday edition Happy Friday today is Friday August 30th. It's the Friday before a long weekend, which I don't know about you guys, but it puts me in a good mood. It's Labor Day weekend. You know what I forgot to mention yesterday on August 29th? That exactly 16 years ago, I met Lance on August 29th and I am so like in shock that it's been 16 years of our love bubble. We're in such a love bubble, Lance and I just kidding that made me want to vomit as much as misophonia does. Welcome to the show. We've got a lot to get into today. We've got crazy stories. We've got relationships starting relationships ending. We've got arrests being made and we have one of in my opinion, the worst episodes of all time of Real Housewives of OC, possibly so much and more on today's daily dose of Donna. I hope everyone's having a lovely start to their day. I know a lot of people are already traveling. A lot of people go into town on Labor Day. Are you planning on going anywhere, LAUSD, that's LA school district, is out of school on the day before the Friday before Labor Day, so I know a lot of people that are living it up. They're already in vacation mode. They're at the beach, having their margaritas, their cocktails. I'm still slaving away at my podcast for you guys. Just kidding. I love this. This is not work. This is fun. I enjoy this moment. I enjoy this hour so much. In fact, I love talking to you guys so much that I'm adding my happy hour tonight. My happy hour is tonight on Patreon.

Can't get enough of that douchebag. He and Jackson, Tom Sandoval are probably hanging out somewhere. Anyway, we will get into that later. So if you are joining, let me know in the comments. Before we get into today's show, we have to mention the sponsor and actually it's so funny because Sue commented, gee, that Jennifer Aniston shampoo grows your hair and speed limit. It's so funny. I went out last night for dinner and my girlfriend was like, "Your hair is so long." It really did grow fast, so I don't know if we can attribute it to it, but I'm going to say it's Lola V. So this show is sponsored by Lola V. Lola V is Jennifer Aniston's hair care line and she was looking for a product, a line of hair that was derived from natural ingredients that didn't actually injure your cuticles and your hair and dry and damage it out because, you know, if you're a celebrity like Jennifer Aniston or any of you guys, you're constantly putting heat to it and stress to it and there came Lola V. So she used, she worked with industry leading chemists to develop a proprietary bronze technology known as B-Pro3. So the Lola V lineup could deliver on both naturally-derived ingredients and high-performance results. She's got a bunch of different products in the lineup. We've got a shampoo, a conditioner. We have a hair, an intensive hair treatment, which I used this morning in the shower. It smells so good. A hair oil. She has an amazing detangler that I need more of because I use it every single day. So go to LolaV.com, that's L-O-L-A-V-I-E.com and use code DANA 15, that's D-A-N-A-1-5. DANA 15, to get 15% off your entire order, try it out. Make sure you tell them Daily Dose of DANA sent me and I want to have nice hair like Jennifer Aniston. Thank you so much, Lola V. Let's get into today's show. We've got a lot of stuff to talk about. Number one, in crazy and sad news during my show yesterday, TMZ released an article about a Dancing with the Stars Pro, Artem—I'm going to say it wrong—Artem Chick-Vinci. Now, he was on the last season, as far as I know, but he is not on the season and I don't even think he was supposed to be on the season, to be honest. I don't think they like removed him. I think he was never supposed to be on the season, but he was arrested yesterday, I believe yesterday or the day before, over, in quotes, traumatic physical damage to a victim, an unnamed victim, but they're calling it domestic violence and the concerning part here, I mean, it would be concerning if it was anyone. But the really concerning part is that he is married to Nikki Bella, who is basically, she is one of the Bella twins. A lot of you guys know her from the WWE world. I actually don't really know the Bella twins. I never watched that reality show, I don't know about you guys, but I've never really watched it, so I haven't really followed their relationship and their love. This is pretty crazy. So, this article says officials with the Napa County Sheriff's Office confirmed the arrest of longtime dancing with the Stars Pro Artem Vinsev with noting that deputies clearly witnessed physical evidence of domestic violence prior to taking the ABC star into custody. He was arrested in Yoonville, California. I think it's pronounced Yoonville, maybe Yoonville. And right outside of Napa, it's like a portion of Napa, it's a lot of beautiful wineries. It's actually an amazing, gorgeous place. I've actually been there before with Lance. It's one of those places that you go to if you want to do the winery tours and stand like a very sweet hotel, bed and breakfast type of thing. I'm sure whoever he was with, because they're not naming his victim, but I think we can assume that he was with his wife, because they were just celebrating their anniversary. So even though they're not naming the victim, I'm going to say that I would imagine it is his wife. He was arrested early Thursday, so yesterday in connection with suspicion of felony domestic violence by deputies with the department. When it comes to felony domestic violence, it's not based on hearsay. Napa County Sheriff's office spokesman told Daily Mail, the deputies saw something that is apparent. I'm not telling you this is what happened in this particular case, but sometimes this means there would be evidence of blood, scratches, bruises, something visible where the deputies say, "Okay, we're making this arrest." They spoke to Chid Binsev and arrested him for felony domestic violence. Everything that the dance pro was cooperative and did not fight with deputies or anything of that nature. Basically, an alarm was triggered at the home by a 911 call made from the premises at around 8.30 a.m., insiders close to the probe told TMZ on Thursday after an unidentified caller reported a medical emergency from the property. Sources told the outlets that paramedics in the fire department were en route. Someone from the house called 911 again to cancel the request and both agencies went back to their stations. This specific state penal code, the one that he was arrested for, applies to suspects who willfully inflict corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition towards a spouse or a former spouse, a cohabitin or former cohabitin, a fiancé, someone with whom the offender has or previously has had an engagement with or a dating relationship or the father or mother of the offender's child. Okay, Simone is saying TMZ just released the 911 call. Should we see if we can see this together? Okay, let's listen to this today. He says in the 911 call that Nikki threw shoes at him. This does not sound like a very good man relationship. Let's hope we can hear this together. Hold on. Okay. Here we go. Nine over 32. I think it's three four fifteen verbal. I have a thirty two five fifty the three initiatives came in as they are requesting medical. But now that I'm stating he got an argument with his wife and his wife's shoes at the beginning, there is a child on the scene. Okay, firms, medicals, and relatives are staging. It's kind of hard to understand. Not at this time, it's hard to get in so there's an active four fifteen in the background. Your responsible is going to be in a poor Garcia born in eighty three. Kind of get the two parties separate. That's an illness, so three medical out 14 rich health rate, not to do it for me. Nine over 32. I do a three nap last year, I'll be stating no medical is needed now just for a further than the four year old child on scene. Okay, so from what we're seeing here, there was a four year old child on scene. It says from the home. So I don't know if that means that they rented a house up in this area, maybe some sort of a Airbnb because they just celebrated their anniversary. And she just posted about their anniversary four days ago. So let's look at this together really fast. And Nikki Garcia. She had just posted about their anniversary four days ago. This is the post right here, I'm not going to play the volume because I don't want the song to but she basically said it's to the song can't help falling in love. And she puts the quotes wise men say only fools Russian but I can't help falling in love with you, et cetera, et cetera. The video is beautiful. It's of him and her and their child and kissing and the wedding, et cetera, et cetera. She says this song is about our love story. I'll never forget where I was when I asked Jesus about Artem having a conversation with he and God, how my feelings felt too soon. It all felt too fast and then the song came on and that's when I knew I was falling in love with him and it was all meant to be happy anniversary. I love you. So obviously something went wrong. They had their anniversary. We don't really know specifically what's going on and what caused it. If he called the police because she threw shoes at him, he wouldn't have gotten arrested unless there's an actual, there's actual physical evidence of some sort on her body for him to have gotten arrested. I'm assuming, I don't know, it makes me very, very sad because obviously any sort of domestic violence is just awful, whether it's female driven or male driven, it's just awful. But I hate hearing this, it's just, it's a bad thing. And like, you know, Lance was showing the crew yesterday. I sent the text to him and he was like, whoa, I'm showing everyone here because he's working on dancing with the stars right now and he's like, I'm showing everyone here and everyone's freaking out. Like, no one really knew, no one knew the story, no one knew what was happening, which is why I don't think he was on this season because they started yesterday or they started this week. So he wouldn't have been up north in Yumpville, California, if he was planning on starting rehearsals. It's really, really, it's a bummer, it's a bummer to see. Nikki Garcia, that's of course, Nikki Bella, one of the Bella twins, Nikki Garcia breaks her silence in the first statement through her, through her publicist or I forget exactly a representative spoke on behalf of her for privacy following the arrest. They basically are saying this is a private matter and Nikki asked for privacy for her and her family at this time. So we really don't know specifically what happened, either way, I think whenever you have any sort of physical, whether it's throwing shoes, whether it's, of course, skin, you know, touching skin and getting physical with anyone, it just sounds like what does that mean about the nature of their relationship? You guys, I just watched Yumpville. Thank you, Michelle. Yumpville. I knew I was saying something wrong. It's not you. It's Yumpville. I never watched her reality show. I don't know her personality that well. I've heard her on TikTok random, like from their podcast, because she and her sister, their twins, right? They have these podcasts, but she was with John Senna. Wasn't she? Cena? I mean, am I crazy? That was her. That was with him and I'm assuming, you know, when you're with someone like that, you pick someone that's completely opposite. You probably, I don't know, you cannot make, you can't go into knowing why or what these, why these things happen. You don't know. I mean, it sounds like probably a very passionate duo in the sense that they were, they maybe, maybe this was not the first time this has happened. Who knows? I just watched the worst X on Netflix. And if you guys have heard of the worst X or I think it's called the worst X or my worst X or something like that worst X ever, something about worst X, I watched the first episode of it the other night. And the first episode is taking this one specific guy who was in a series of domestic violence relationships, boyfriend after girlfriend after girlfriend after girlfriend and it got progressively worse and progressively worse. And hearing the stories from the women, from the victims and the survivors of this horrid man who he literally almost killed someone multiple times. This woman, one of them spoke and she, she and he met doing like Taekwondo or judo classes or something like that. It's so, she said, I never, ever, ever, ever would have ever thought that I would be in a position where I was getting physically abused by someone. She was like a badass girl. You know, she had the tattoo. She was strong. She was all of these things. And yet this went down to her and she's like, you know, sometimes like you just feel, and I'm not like putting it that kind of energy on Artem because we don't know the whole story. But it's pretty sad. It's the whole thing is sad. You know, apparently he was a really nice guy, like Lance had nothing bad to say about him. Lance said the entire crew was shocked over it and felt very like, whoa, because it's so out of character. And I think a lot of times these, these things happen. I think a lot of times you find it's people like this that you're like, I had no idea they were like this behind the scenes, you know? Anyway, I'm sure we'll get more information as time goes on. I just saw on TMZ that Cheryl Burke has, you know, former Dancing with a Stars Pro Cheryl Burke has kind of, you know, given her own thoughts about, you know, what she felt. She said he was family to me. I just hope everyone's okay. She said that on her podcast, Sex, Lies, and Spray Tams, I always laugh over that topic. She says it's hard for her because Artem was her family and a domestic violence arrest doesn't jive, jive with the Artem that she knows. That's what I'm saying. Like this usually doesn't happen with people that you expect. It's always like shocking, I think, in these stories. Also Nikki Garcia, they've come out with like now they're probably going through all former podcast episodes and everything. And I guess in the past she has said that he and her did couples therapy together, that he needs to work on tone, that she she and Artem struggled with communicating saying back in 2021, she and her husband went to couples therapy because of how he spoke to her. The former WWE star opened up about jumping on the therapist couch with the pro dancer during an episode of Caitlin Bristos off the Vine podcast. After Bristo revealed she didn't know if Artem liked her on Dancing with the Stars because they were partners. Caitlin Bristo and Artem were partners. So if you're kind of trying to remember which one Artem was, he was Melora Hardin's partner. He was Nikki's partner. He was Caitlin's partner in the past. And you know, she talked about going to therapy because she thought he doesn't always moderate his tone towards her adding that they were trying to rectify the issue to be great parents to their then at that time five-month-old son. So I'll tell you one thing. I believe we don't know anything. We don't know anything about anything. And in this show, The Worst X at 1.1 of the girls was so physically abused by him and literally had blood coming off her body and she was arrested because he said that she beat him first and he acted in self-defense and it was obviously a lie. So we don't know the story, obviously he was arrested so you can only assume that something was done but apparently she threw shoes at him as well. Anyway, I don't know. It's really a pretty sad story regardless, especially for the fact that a kid was with them. They're four-year-old son who obviously is aware something's up. It's 8.30 in the morning, four-year-old son is home, police and dad is arrested. Like kids see these things. So that is the worst part about it, 100%. So sending love to her and hoping that everything works out for them in whatever way it needs to. A couple other crazy stories. Well, first of all, do you guys remember Real Housewives of OC, alum Lori Peterson? So Lori was in season one. She was working for Vicky at the time. She was like her insurance assistant and then she ended up leaving and finding a husband in George. I believe his name was a very, very nice man and they kind of braided a bunch of their kids together. It was kind of a jina and travias situation before then but her husband George was very, very well off. They had this beautiful wedding. Anyway, I don't know if you guys remember this but a few months ago, Lori's son, Josh, who was her oldest kid on the show. We saw him many times on the show throughout the years. He really struggled. We saw this over and over and over because, sorry, because there was a lot of in and out of jail. There was a lot of drug use. He was definitely a kid that struggled. We saw it throughout the show and he died at age 35. When was that? In March. March 31, he died at age 35. And now, finally, they released the autopsy of his cause of death, which I think everyone kind of assumed was going to be drug related just because of his past. But it was definitely drug related. He died as a result of a combination of fentanyl, methamphetamine, and Olanzapen. Officials with the Orange County Sheriff Coroner Department told TMZ it was ruled accidental. Fentanyl is like the scariest thing in the world. I saw this one article just the other day where they took a pencil, I don't have a pencil here, but they took a sharp pencil and put a little bit of fentanyl on the tip of the pencil. So you can imagine a sharpens number two pencil and a little bit of the drug on the tip of the ink on the sharp pencil and that amount could kill 200 people. It is the most potent, awful, awful drug. And most people that are dying of these accidental overdoses are because their drugs are being laced with fentanyl. I mean, that's ultimately I think why Dave Hollis ended up dying, like so many people that just like dab in these drugs, just awful, awful, awful. So anyway, it's really sad for her and I'm sure she kind of had a feeling that it was drug related, but now knowing that I'm telling you, there's so many people that I know who have kids that really struggle with addiction and they go on and on and growing up in Beverly Hills. So I went to Beverly Hills High School and I think I mentioned that yesterday too, which is so weird that I mentioned that two times this week because I don't talk about that often, but I went to Beverly Hills High School and a lot of kids I went to school with were very wealthy, very wealthy and very spoiled, entitled, all of that. And in fact, I went to school with a lot of, you know, a lot of people whose parents were well known, very, you know, whether CEOs, executives, lawyers, attorneys, you know, whatever, doctors, et cetera, and one kid that I went to high school with, his dad was Robert Shapiro. So of course Robert Shapiro from the OJ trial from so many different trials and his son died of an overdose. I want to say we were still in high school, like he was so young and many, many kids that I went to school with, if not during high school, but right after high school, a lot of them, you know, got involved in drugs. So it's not drugs is like so not a poor person's problem. It's not for a certain kind of a there's it has no discrimination basically on who it affects and who it takes like look at Matthew Perry, one of the wealthiest, most successful financially, you know, well off people, friends literally in around him at all times and he couldn't stay away from it and so many people struggle from it. So I'm seeing a lot of your comments. Wow. This is so interesting. Michelle says the government gives that Nark Narcan, I'm saying that right, right? For you to have on your person, if someone has an overdose around you, I keep it on my person in my car. I couldn't even imagine is it an injection, like I don't even know if anyone around me is average doing any drugs like that, like that's so crazy, but I always like scare the shit out of my kids. I try so hard to scare them about this. Like I think we spent so much time like don't drink, don't drink and like yeah, that's bad, but like really just never take a drug like never, oh, it's a nasal spray, never take drugs ever like don't ever take a pill, a gummy anything from anyone else. Ah, Heather, you're right, Donna. My stepson died from such a small amount. So sad. So freaking sad. And this is like such a big problem in America right now, it's like such a big like we should be focusing on how to keep these illegal drugs out of our country. Like that should be number one on everyone's policy list right now. It's so effing bad. All right, let's try to lighten things up. And I know just the thing because our next story has to do with my favorite, my favorite couple in Arizona flagstaff to be honest, and that is Robin and Cody Brown. Yes, we are going to break down Robin and Cody Brown Zillow listing. They have listed their, their home for sale. Remember, Robin is like the only one that actually owned her home. Everyone. I feel like everyone else was renting Janelle was like on a piece of, you know, an in a little dirt van by the river on lot five. Mary was like in some, Mary was renting like a mansion for herself because there was a wet bar, right? And then of course we had Christine, who was kind of just like going from house to house. But remember, everyone's gone. Mary's gone, Christine's gone, Janelle's gone. And now it's just Robin and Cody. And this is the house that we never went inside. Remember, they filmed everything on the outside of the house and we always said, why? Why did they do that? And the truth is, I think we know now they've listed their house for $1.65 million, which is a lot, a lot of money for Arizona. I don't know what flagstaff's real estate market is like, but it's a lot of money. This house was built in 2007, sits on a two acre wooded lot. It says tucked away behind towering pines on a secluded ridge. We don't really know specifically where they're moving or why they're moving. But we do have, we do have the listing. So let's play a game of property hunters or love it or list it or what's another home on a budget. One of those shows, let's go through Robin and Cody's house together and try to imagine, just put yourself in their home at this moment. Now remember, they live on hash knife. Cody's like, I'm only going to move to a house that says hash knife. They live on hash knife, hash knife, that's a horrible name trail, hash knife trail in flagstaff, Arizona. And upon first viewing, you want to say like, wow, this is really cute. Like look at this porch, by the way, this porch is to me exactly what a sister wife would want, right? Exactly what a sister wife would want. Lots of rocking chairs, there's a, there's all this greenery in the back, the beautiful sky. I mean, we're seeing all kinds of, you know, furniture that you get in the discount section of Walmart, but it's still beautiful scenery. And you know, you can imagine how nice it is. And then we go into what ends up being their living room. Now I don't know if you guys remember, let's see if this will, it's, it's, it's very blurry. Maybe we don't want to do, I don't want to do a virtual tour. We can watch the show to do a virtual tour. But this, this beautiful view is of God knows what just a house in the middle of nowhere. This looks like where all the coyotes have passed to die. I believe this is law one over here. We've got lot two, lot three, I mean, it is pretty, pretty out there and isolated. So Robin can be like, Cody, and no one will hear them out here. Lots of trees, so many trees. Look, this house is in the middle of nothing. It's a house in the middle of a bed of trees with nothing around it. To me, honestly, it's kind of like a, it's a beautiful location. If you like the, you know, being in nature, honestly, now I want you guys to look at this living room. This living room is quite a sight. We have some sort of sheriff's badge on the ground in a carpet. We have Aurora's blanket right here, I think. And then we have some leather furniture. Now I don't know about you guys. Are you a leather? Are you a leather couch person? I'm not personally a leather couch person, I find them to be sticky, cold, easy to clean. But I think in my opinion, I believe that these leather couches have been part of the Brown family house since back in the first home, the first season, the sister wife. I think these are, these are like, you should be in a museum. I mean, how many browns have sat on these couches? How many times have has Robin cried on this couch? That's what I want to see, you know, and I think that they're not going to sell this house very well unless they put like very specific details about like Robin cried six times in the middle. This is where Robin and Janelle had their first fight. Now this is a bedroom that looks possibly like, to me, I like the door, it's a wood door. The bedroom has a bed that is like so intense. It's like a huge wood frame for a small little room and it's overkill. I don't understand what's going on on this side, but I have a feeling this room is all bed and I have a feeling this is where her 20, you know, her 23 year old daughter is. The ones I also cried just like her. The bathroom. Okay, sweet. It's a sweet bathroom. Now here's another room. Oh, there's another leather chair. This is part of the leather chair from the living room, I believe. This looks like it's probably Solomon's room. Why do I think it is? Because it says little man up on the picture and then there's lots of Legos. It's a interesting thing that they left all these transformers. Can I zoom in? Yeah, they left all these transformers. Why? Is that a picture of Matthew McConnie? Right there. Okay, it's a sweet room. It's okay. I mean, there's something going on here. He's got a Dewalt, he's got a box of tools as a table in his room, a Dewalt box. Hmm, Solomon, this is probably one of the other kids' rooms, lots of plants on window cells. This is something you don't see every day. Every room that I've seen has about eight plants on window cells. Is that like, is that a polygamous thing? I don't know. The more plants, the happier you are. I can't keep a plant alive. You guys know that. Oh, here are some dead plants on the top of this bathroom. One of the ugliest mirror frames I've ever seen. It's a mirror frame in the bathroom with some sort of butterfly wallpaper. It's not for me, not for me. There's a lot of purple in this house and I want you guys to pay attention to this. Let's take a shot of something every time we see purple. This bathroom has a purple, a purple countertop that I think you can't find anywhere. I think this is a one of a kind purple countertop. It's hard to find. Oh, where are we? We're in a linen closet that looks like under some stairs, also possibly maybe where one of their kids slept. This is definitely little Aurora's room, right? Because it's so girly, she's got a TV in her kid's room. I don't know if Cody would approve of that. There's a TV in a little girl's room. Wow, I'm going to judge the crap out of that. There's another bathroom. They have a squatty potty. I like that. What's this little gorgeous thing on the corner? We've got shells. We've got shells on a string. What's up here? Oh, this is definitely one of the Brown's houses because there's a sign that says be happy, be bright, be you in the bathroom. And you know one thing about, oh, what's this? There's another sign. Something and the sea for you, clean the sea for you, something like that. One thing about the Browns is they love a sign. They love signs in their room. Okay, guys, we've hit, we have hit the Mecca. This is Robin Brown's love nest. This is where all the magic is made, all right, you guys? This is where, I mean, now we know 100%. She loves purple. This Robin loves purple. Let's dive in. We know it's their bedroom because look at these, these art pieces. Someone painted Robin and Cody off in the corner. Oh my God, making out on a bench and standing in the middle of the forest. And notice Cody looks about 12 in this picture. And so does Robin. And there's no other wives. And it's weird because on their wedding day, I remember there being like a lot of wives. Remember, they had a lot of wives. We also have in this room very purple fields. But the start of the show, honestly, is this carpet. It's a purple shag rug that wasn't even, it wasn't even perfectly vacuum for the picture, which is a pet peeve of mine. This is quite possibly one of the ugliest rooms I've ever seen. If you have a purple shag rug and you're listening to this podcast, I love you very much. And I'm so sorry that I'm saying these words, but this is one of quite possibly the ugliest. This is my version of like nightmare home. You know how some people like a torture den, what is it going on here? What is next to her bed? Look at this bed frame and the side table. We've got a Victorian slash Renaissance slash Persian goddess. What this? We need some help. We need someone to come in here and help us. There is a lamp that looks like some, you know, French old, she brought in a little old and a little new. I don't know if these statues, are they, are they just rocks or they frogs bears? Are they bears? These big bronze statues with one random phone charger hanging. When I tell you, if you guys want to know, you know how you think about like bringing the old and the new, the blue or whatever, you've got this old ass room with everything is from like, I don't know, Renaissance RS. And then you have a random phone charger just hanging. It's too much for my brain. Let's see what else we find in this corner. Of course, we have a matching clock on the other side. We also have some more phone chargers because, you know, it's still modern. There's a clock that is placed so low, a clock that's placed like hip level, hip level. Very strange. Very strange. Like boy, when you put the clock up on the top where people normally put clocks, let's see another angle of this gorgeous love den. Well, we've got some sort of princess fairy tale picture. We've got, oh, another plant on the windowsill and a sign that says eternal love because that is eternal love. Now she could not find a purple couch. So allegedly she had to go to Amazon.com and search a purple throw blanket. So she put it over the couch, but then they forgot to cover one corner of it. So you see the real actual pretty couch under, but it's a purple love nest. Purple is the color that turns Robin and Cody Brown on allegedly. This must be the, of course, this is her bathroom. This is the master bathroom because there's a purple red carpet, like there's a purple carpet walking you into the bathroom or walking these in or walking into the, you know, how much love was made in the, in that shower with all the hair washing. He was like, "Ugh, wash my hair, Robin." And she's like, "Oh, Cody, oh, let's read the sign. There's a long sign here." Oh, gosh, it's a Theodore Roosevelt quote in your bathroom. It is not the critic who collects not the man who points out, had the strong man stumbles, or the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who was actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming, but who does actually strive to do the deeds? Who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions? This is a sign and it goes on and on. This is Robin's site on this side, for sure, with the little bath clock. I can't. You guys, only Robin Brown, has a clock that is the size of my pinky, and it's of a bath with a clock on it. This has got to be. This is one of the craziest things I've ever seen in my life, this bath. And then, of course, that's his side. He has a side with a crystal, he has this ugly ass, oh, that's just the faucet. I mean, they're sinks, or whoa, whoa, I didn't expect this. Went to the next page, we're in a closet. We are in, literally, the sister wives closet. Wasn't this the name of their business? Okay, number one, we have a picture of, I think, another Robin and Cody painting up on top. Oh, we have a Corona extra sign, a lit up Corona extra sign on Cody's side of the closet. What? They don't even drink. What is actually happening here? It's a lit up sign, but it's not lit up. We've got Monopoly in the corner. We've got books, some books, and like DVDs, some CDs maybe. What's this? There's a lot of, I feel like this is a lot of Robin and Cody sculptures. This is a picture allegedly of Coyote Pass and where dreams go to die. There's also another quote here, but we can't read it. Built in shelves, of course, we have a safe. What do you think is in Cody's safe? Wrong answer is only. What is in Cody's safe? Lily says I sound jealous, and the truth is I am incredibly jealous over this Corona light sign. That's, I really, really want that Corona light sign. I'm going to go to every swap meet this weekend to try to find it. Because of like wallpaper looking boxes with like threads and stuff in there. All right. Let's move on. We've got to look. Oh, there's another crystal. There's a lot of crystals in this house. They are very nature inspired. This is the famous living room where they celebrate Christmas every year, you guys. There is not one place on the wall without a piece of art, especially this corner right here, because they had to find a place for that piece. And of course, it made sense. They had two inches without art on it. There's a lot of sculptures, lots of sculptures. I bet that's like Solomon and Aurora. It's a bunch of kids in sculpture form, a lot of knickknacks, a lot of signs, and it looks like maybe some DVDs. What kind of DVDs do you think that they're watching over in Cody's house? Like 101 Dalmatians. This is the living room and it's all it's glory. I mean, why weren't we able to be in here? Why didn't we ever get to hang out in here with real cameras? We only got like home videos of this gorgeousness. It's actually a really nice room. I don't like the way it's dressed in any way, but it's a very nice home. Like I can imagine completely taking out all of this furniture, taking out all the window dressings, giving it maybe a new floor, painting it, lightening it up. It would be a gorgeous home. It's a huge, gorgeous kitchen with awful ceiling lights, but it's like to me, oh, they're really into bears. There's a big and small bear cuddling. That's Cody and that's Robin. Allegedly, they have a huge, huge built-in fridge. It's a huge home. It's actually a gorgeous home. I would redo it. It's dated, but it has a lot of space. The porch is wrapped around in the middle of absolutely nowhere. It's so quiet. It's so lovely. This is the, this, now this we recognize from the show, because this is where they have some seats. This is where they put, you know, when they have family meetings during COVID. Robin would be here and Mary and, you know, Cody, they would sit out there and they would discuss where they were going to do Christmas. It's actually a great house with so many memories inside. So which one of you guys are buying it? We've got a huge garage with storage. I mean, come on. Wouldn't you guys say minus the way that it's dressed inside? It's actually a very nice home. Interesting, Michelle says this house used to be an Airbnb and it came fully furnished and stopped. It was sold as is. All right. Well, thank you so much for the tour, Browns, and I can't wait to see you more in the next couple of weeks. We will be there with bells on. We will watch every moment of every single episode. I need, I need slum that's sister, no, that's the secret lives of Mormon wives. I need real housewives of Salt Lake City and I need the sister wives in my house. I need all of these, you know, religious loves that are all based in Utah. I need them all in my veins at this moment. Lily says all only by the house with Cody in it. Well, you know, the house sells for $1.6 million, but with Cody, it's $1.7 million. So if you're already willing to pay a $1.65 and you're down just for another $500,000, like I think you get Cody, you definitely get his hair products somewhere. All right. This was really fun. Thank you so much. The breakdown of this house is top-tier journalism and that's what I'm here for. I'm definitely not here to only give you guys gossip. I'm here to really take you through the moments of like, you know, what it's like to live like these people, you know, now we will know exactly what it's like to live like a brown. Where are Robin and Cody going? I guess we'll find out. Can't wait to see it. In the next story, this is actually a real shitty, sad story. Lea Remini, Lea Remini and her husband of, is it how many years, 20? Let me pull up her Instagram, her Instagram post where she posted about this, her husband of 28 years. Let me share it with you guys. I'm sure you saw it all over the place because this was pretty big news yesterday. Lea Remini and her husband Angelo have decided to end their long, long marriage. So after 28 years together and 21 years of marriage, we have decided to file for divorce. This decision came after a lot of thought and care and as hard as divorce is we are approaching this with a positive outlook because we know what's best for us. We are proud of how we have worked through this together. Yes, we're sad and we've got some figuring out to do as we continue to move forward into a new normal together, still in many ways, a part in some new ones. But here's the thing, we've been best friends for so many years. We are still celebrating holidays together, watching our favorite TV shows together and gathering as a family. So the big question, why? To put it simply, we both changed as people do and we got used to playing roles that didn't fit us anymore. After a lot of effort and consideration, we've decided to take this step, which reflects who we are today. It goes on and on and on. She says, from our perspective, this marriage was a huge success. We want to be transparent because we've been so transparent through the years. We're sharing this unknown journey. We'll keep sharing snippets of our lives as we navigate this new chapter. I mean, to me, I think that it actually is a beautiful way to announce a divorce. A lot of people have felt like they've been separated for a very long time because she hasn't been posting anything of him for quite some time now. I don't follow her regularly. I don't follow him. I don't really know what's going on. There was like, after the Scientology drama, and I'm curious from you guys, because obviously there was some really, really crazy post Scientology world. Obviously, she wrote the book about her Scientology journey and then she starred and produced this documentary series of getting people out of Scientology. What was it called? I forget the name of her show. She would interview people and whatever. We knew about all these different huge names in the Scientology community or the post Scientology community that she was working with. And then there was all this drama with these post Scientology people. Starting with, you remember how I had a Iran on my show and he has a huge, I assume he's still doing it. I don't see him in my feet anymore of basically the Scientology aftermath, this is Scientology people that have left Scientology and are now speaking out about the horrors of Scientology. And then there was big drama, I think, between Leah Remney and him and maybe some other members. I know a lot of you guys really do have more insight into this than I do, but I know there was a little bit of strangeness around her and around him and around the post Scientology. And I guess even after you leave a cult, you're still going to find people that you connect with and don't connect with. But from anyone that's watching, any of their reality shows or read the book or whatever, which I did, they seem to have a really, really strong relationship. But you know, they always say that you either grow together as a couple or you grow apart as a couple. And Leah Remney and her husband possibly just has started to grow apart. You know, they left Scientology together and they were doing their thing and it seemed to work really well, but maybe they just became more friends than anything. And it looks, according to this post, like, there's no big drama, there's no big story around it. It's just like, it wasn't working anymore. Maybe he chewed too loudly at dinner. I'm telling you, Misophonia, a top reason for divorce, I think. So I don't know what's going on there behind the scenes, but I do know that she seems to be really open about it, she's sharing the journey. And I'm sure it's very, very hard for them, but hopefully, you know, for their families that are very involved in their lives. I hope that everything is going to be fine. Brianna says he's been on tour doing Latin music for a while. I think they just grew apart. Yeah. 100%. Tony says Kyle should take notes, Kyle Richards. Yeah. Oh my gosh. I totally forgot about this story, but we should talk about it while we're here. I saw this yesterday on Instagram about Mauricio. So I've told you guys that I've heard some crazy, crazy things about Mauricio over the course of, you know, in the business sense, I've talked about this. I don't know if I talked about it on Patreon this last week that I have a friend who's in the industry and in the real estate industry and always says that he feels that like Mauricio is going to have a lot of legal drama in his life because there's been a lot of things that he's gone and involved in. He's definitely been sued. He's been in legal drama. There's been a lot of like strange fraudulent type of accusations. But then yesterday I saw this on an account called Bravo Snarkside, let me pull it up really fast. And it says Mauricio Yumansky is sued for allegedly obtaining $3.5 million in fraudulent pandemic relief loans. This is according to Us Weekly. It says that according to court documents, he claimed in a new lawsuit that Yumansky and his real estate company, the agency, applied for and received two payroll protection program and CARES Act loans in the total amount of $3.5 million. The program was created to help prevent the termination of employees by providing loans to businesses that were unable to pay workers due to the impact of COVID-19. The lawsuit accused Yumansky's company of falsely certifying their need for the loans to pay their employees. The docs stated the amounts the agency applied for and received exceeded the loan limit of 2.5 monthly salary with a cap of 100,000 annual salary per employee. Realtor LLC alleged that Yumansky's company would have been minimally impacted by the pandemic shutdown because their revenue came from real estate transactions, typically between millionaires and billionaires, not customers who are unable to buy goods because of the restrictions from the shutdown. The filing claimed that the agency's business grew massively during the pandemic by earning $6.5 billion in 2020 and $11.2 billion in the following year. So this is pretty crazy, you guys. I don't know about you, but if you're a business owner, you probably also applied to a loan like this. My husband's company had to apply to a loan because the industry, the TV industry shut down and they needed to pay their employees. So certain companies, it really does make sense, but you can't mess around with this. This is pretty, pretty bad. I think the more money you make, the more eyes are on you. They always say usually people don't get audited when they're not making a lot of money by the IRS. It's usually people that are making a ton of money or an exorbitant amount of money, I think, are the people that get a lot of more eyes on them. So this was a bad move on whoever is, I don't know if it's Mauricio that made this call. I'm sure he had something to do with it, but whoever is in charge of the CFO of the company, et cetera, et cetera, but it ain't good for Mauricio. Let's hope that he can get himself out of that, but he sued for that. It's not even that they want him to pay it back, which you have to pay back. You do have to pay these loans back with interest, but he's being sued, which is really nuts. So, okay. Another piece of housewife news that kind of just came from the real house as a Beverly Hills world is that Yolanda, a deed. Apparently, a real housewife of Beverly Hills has been came out as being secretly engaged for two years. When I said came out, did you guys think I was going to say as gay? She's been secretly engaged to a CEO. His name is Joseph Jingoli. Joseph Jingoli. She's been secretly engaged for two years. Now, Yolanda is someone else that I never really think about anymore. I mean, I see that her daughter is online a lot, but I don't see her. She said that Jingoli proposed while they were on a trip in Holland in 2022. Earlier this week, the couple's relationship status was casually revealed in a profile done by architectural digest as the publication referred to her longtime love as her fiance. Did they have an architect? Oh, did you guys see this architectural digest? Um, article about her in her ranch? Are we allowed to see it or the textual? Are we allowed to actually see it without having a membership as my question? Let's look at this together. Did you guys see this? I'm so interested because remember her house in Malibu with the with the incredible fridge and the lemons and stuff. It was so pretty. Um, so this is it inside Yolanda Hadid's modern Texas ranch. Explore Yolanda Hadid's show stopping Texas refuge. Um, yeah, it says early on in their relationship, her fiance, Joseph Jingoli was her away to a date to a horse show and they started dating and meeting. He's a construction company CEO and she's living what it looks like probably her best life. She seems like someone that likes to be outside. She's very nature oriented, you know, with her. Oh my gosh. Look at this kitchen. You guys now this like, take note, Browns. Look at this kitchen. Obviously, this is an insanely expensive home, but like, wow, wow, wow, wow. Look at this gorgeous lit up wall, shelf wall behind her. I mean, what a stunning home. If you if you're just listening to this, you've got to Google her home in Texas. Um, every single moment of it is exactly like, it's a dream dream home. Oh my gosh. Look how cute this room is. It's a children's room with three beds, like a bunk bed and then another said side bed. Like this is the, the bed that this is the room that Gina unreal has a real house wise of OC should have had. It's perfection. Wow. This is really, truly one of the most stunning homes. Okay. So good for Yolanda. And, you know, David Foster, I'll never forget David Foster was such a, uh, jerk asoid, you know, how he left her when she was sick. David Foster is an interesting one. I really like Catherine Foster, his wife, but he's an interesting one. Okay. Let's keep going. Um, we got to talk about real house wise of OC because this is a long episode. Um, and the reason why I don't think we're going to be talking for that much longer is because real house wise of OC was quite possibly one of the worst episodes, raise your hand, worst episode I have ever seen of real housewives in maybe a long time, probably not the truth. But I am not into sticky stuff with my reality shows. I don't want to feel like I'm watching an over produced game show. I don't want to feel like I'm watching an advertisement for another show. It was a trader's spin off crossover moment and it was so ridiculously stupid. The beginning of the show seemed normal. We saw a good scene between Emily and her husband talking about his health and talking about how she didn't like the way she was talking to Jen. I mean, did Emily break your heart in last night's episode? It really broke my heart. She was talking about how Jen triggers her because Jen reminds her of her mom who basically had all the opportunity in the world to do something with herself and didn't do it. And it was really hard for Emily growing up and she says, "I feel so bad the way I talk to Jen." And she ended up apologizing to Jen later at the traders party. I love that storyline. I thought that was wonderful. We also had a Katie and Jen moment where Katie was talking about, um, you know, Heather, she was basically, they were talking about marriage and remarrying and having, you know, kids, because Katie has a daughter that ends up wanting to change her last name into Katie's new husband's last name. I can't wrap my head around Katie's family's dynamic. I don't understand it. She has a bunch of kids from a bunch of different people. They try to explain it. I can't wrap my head around what's going on here. Like I don't get it. I don't really understand. Then, um, and we also saw Tamra and her daughter again. Second time of the season, it feels forced. I don't really understand why all of a sudden we're getting her in there. I guess she's over 18, but I don't really fully understand the point of putting Tamra's daughter so heavily in the show. She doesn't seem like she really wants to film. She doesn't seem like she's bringing so much to the story of it, but, you know, it's okay. So anyway, Shannon and Vicki end up getting ready to go to this traders party. Oh, yeah, we know that we know that Shannon and Vicki are invited to Tamra's traders party. We're confused. Why? I'm confused. Why? Like she had that dinner with Shannon, which didn't go so great, but then they ended up kind of trying to make up. And Tamra said she was inviting Shannon Vicki being there is so wild. It really comes out of left field. Like at this point, Tracer Mika's is called off and they're hating each other in public. They're talking shit about each other on every podcast, et cetera. So this is so weird that they're all together. But all of a sudden we went from like these normal scenes to, okay, what are you going to address tonight for your Scotland party? What are you going to address for traders party? And I was like, what are we watching? We're watching a glorified advertising for traders. And by the way, traders doesn't need advertisement. It's a great show. But anyway, so then, you know, they get to this home. I'm confused where we are. No one's making any sense of like what we're doing here. And all of a sudden they stand in line for this traders moment. It's very similar to the first episode of the traders when everyone just stands outside of the house and Alan Cummings walks down the stairs or whatever to introduce the game. And here we go. This is where Teddy Melincamp walks downstairs and introduces the game. And she says immediately a comment towards Vicki, which is welcome housewives and Vicki. And everyone's like, whoa, I can't believe she said that. Now everyone's like, wow, Teddy's here. She's stunning. I can't believe Teddy's here. Tamara's like, I knew Teddy was going to kill it. I thought to myself, no offense, Teddy, but like you didn't need this. I mean, she got paid, I'm sure. So I'm sure she did it for that reason. But did any of you guys feel like Teddy really needed to do that? And now knowing the relationship of Teddy and Tamara, the fact that they're doing the show together, it's been a part of the show before we've talked about it. Two teas in a pod is like being advertised basically on Real House was Davosi. Even Emily said, that's my podcast partner. It all just feels like a big ass advertisement and it really bothered me. I don't know. I love Teddy as a person in real life. I know that that's unpopular for you guys, but I didn't feel like we needed to see that. They should have brought in some random ass host. It didn't feel like it is necessary. They go and start playing this stupid game about who's the biggest liar? Who's this? Who's that? I watched it, half listening. And I know that this is my job to watch these shows and to recap them for you. But I couldn't wrap my head around it. I don't like all this bullshit. Like I don't like these games. I'm like, just give me a real scene of them talking. They play this game kind of they have to fill out this form. Then they do the whole thing where Teddy goes around and she chooses a traitor. And this is where the show fully lost me because on the show, the traders, we know who the traders are. On this show, they decided to keep the traitor a secret, to keep the audience involved or excited for the end. And then they cut to when she chooses her traitor. They cut to this sound effect and an interview like moment where you can't see who's talking and you can't understand who's talking. So you hear like, I'm the traitor, I'm the traitor, and that was my choice. And I said to myself, oh, this is the moment where I want to throw my phone. I said, this is the moment where the show is jump the shark. You know how every show on every every sitcom, every show we've ever watched in our lives had that one episode where you're like, there's no turning back now. It's usually like some certification episode, Disneyland episode, musical episode. This is what that felt like. And it sucks because this has been such an incredible season of Real Housewives. They didn't need this, which is why it bothers me. Anyway, Shannon and Vicki and Tamara ended up having a conversation at one point, which I thought was a great moment. I thought that part was good. See, I like the conversations that were happening. I like the friendships that were either breaking or forming. I didn't like the game part of it. But Shannon and Tamara and Vicki ended up having a really nice conversation about Trace Amigas and ended up doing their whole like trace Amigas, you know, dance. And it's also confusing because it looked like everything was fine and dandy in this moment. And meanwhile, they're not friends in real life. They never did the show again after that moment. So look, where does it break down now again? We'll have to see. Shannon was talking about the fact that she has to get a breathalyzer in our car. We obviously saw that whole scene. I really like that scene actually. See, I like that stuff. And then, oh, there's one point where Vick, what's her name, Tamara says to Shannon, all they want, meaning Alexis Bellino, all they want is for you to clear John's name. And Shannon kept saying, I will not lie. I will not lie about John. A lot of people are confused about it. What is she lying about? I think basically what they want her to do is clear his name, saying he was a very stand up guy, he wasn't, you know, a big drinker, he was a good man, he never caused arguments or fights. They want her, like Alexis and team want Shannon to go on a podcast or in public or do an interview somewhere basically says, like, John is a good man and it just didn't work out between us. And she in my, from what I was watching on the show was like, no, I won't do that. I will not lie. And say he was a good guy to protect him. That's what I got from when she was saying, I won't lie about that. I won't lie about that because she wants him to be called out for who he is, you know? And Billy says, well, hell say it, Shannon and save yourself $75,000. I think at this point, it's principal for her. She's like, I don't want, you know, it's tough. It's tough. I wouldn't know what to do if I were her in that case either. Would you rather like say nice things about your ex who you absolutely despise and hate and who you know was a big problem in your relationship, et cetera? Would you rather make it sound like he was totally fine and innocent in the case to not pay the money? I don't know. It's not good. A lot of you guys are questioning whether or not, you know, there's more to the story with the John and Shannon in the $75,000. I'm sure there is, but I'm sure we'll find out about it if there is, you know? Too many people know too much. I'm sure we'll find out. And the whole story about, you know, how there's these videos that they may release of Shannon, those got talked about how they will ruin her life, still think disgusting. And what Gina said in a interview was like, it doesn't matter what the videos are, you're saying it's going to ruin her life. And she has kids and you actually want to release these videos like FU. What a horrible, horrible thing. And honestly, the only silver lining of last night's episode was that Alexis was not in it. But in the preview for upcoming episodes, we do see there will be more of Alexis, unfortunately. And that's kind of like when I I think I glazed over when they released who the trader was when someone got murdered, when someone else got murdered, then Tamara got pushed into the pool in the most obviously produced stunt. And then that was it. Like I have never been more disappointed by an episode. I was so excited to come home last night. I went out to dinner to a new restaurant in the Valley and came home and, you know, I was post-Martini. I was super excited to watch Real House as a VOC and I was not, I was not thrilled by it. I was annoyed. But that's just me. And I'm glad that some of you guys liked it and some of you guys didn't. But I didn't think it was like a groundbreaking episode other than the Tamara Vicki and Shannon conversation, which is a moot conversation because it's not happening anymore. They hate each other.
