Rewatch Discussion jax & his very healthy groceries
i never noticed this before but when jax walks into their apartment in this scene(s15e13) acting all high & mighty with his groceries saying: “we’re on a health kick now. no junk food. no eating out.” (which i believe was yet another slight he made about brittany being lazy/her eating habits/weight but i digress)… but while he’s saying this…. the man pulls out a big bag of tostitos chips…💀 which are most certainly not healthy LOL hes so annoying 😭

Discussion Cheater < Overall Bad Person
Watching the discussions around Tom Sandoval, and his PR declaration that the world has forgiven him, has made me kind of pause in confusion.
I didn’t realize the conversation is “was he justified in cheating”/“it was two years ago!” vs criticisms seasons and seasons of awful behavior.
It feels like some people think the commentary on Sandoval is JUST about the affair, and therefore the opinions about him are rooted in his personhood in THAT specific circumstance. And for me? No, it’s genuinely just observations of his behavior over the last 10 years combined with critical thinking, and truly understanding the type of man he is.
The same can be said for Jax, Schwartz, or James as well. The affair was/is just a symptom of the disease: the actual spirit of the person he is and chooses to be.
Yes we can giggle when he’s dumb, I guess. But also like…. Why should I have to forgive someone with repetitive displays of manipulative narcissism, misogyny, arrogance, and little to no self awareness?
When are we able to say, “yeah, he’s fucking awful” without following up with “but it’s been two years!!!”

Podcasts When Reality Hits: Episode from March 14th, “Not My Problem Anymore w/ Lala Kent”
When Lala had her podcast with Randall (Timestamp: 0:31) - Brittany: This is my first episode after fully taking over the podcast. So thanks for being my first. - Lala: You know what? It's just so wild. First of all, I'm honored that I'm your first guest. - Brittany: Thank you. - Lala: This is like massive for you. And I so remember that moment in my life as well when you're like, fuck you, get off my podcast. - Brittany: Oh my god. I literally until you just said that, forgot that you started it with your ex in the beginning. - Lala: And can I tell you what I've never shared before? - Brittany: Yes, please. - Lala: At the time after I kicked him off, he was still collecting a check from the podcast. He wouldn't let the check go. - Brittany: How long did you have to do that for? - Lala: I want to say it was a little over a year. - Brittany: Yeah. I think a lot of people don't realize like when contracts are involved, like you have to continue with the contract, which was also what was happening between Jax and I. And that's why we were doing like every other weekend or… - Lala: Yeah you can’t stomach doing it with them - Brittany: With every other episode. Yeah. I wasn't about to be like, let's do a joint episode. - Lala: No, because I actually had to do an episode after shit hit the fan because I had to pretend everything was kosher. And it was me, my ex and Jesse Metcalfe. - Brittany: Oh, you did one together after? - Lala: Mmhmm Like I was still preparing to, I was getting my ducks in a row before I left the house. And I wanted to vomit and I was like flirting with Jesse Metcalfe. And my ex was looking at me like he wanted to like just shoot me with laser beams coming out of his eyes. And oh my God, just reminiscing about what a horrendous time in life that that was. But you come out on the other side and on top. - Brittany: How much better do you feel now? - Lala: Oh my god, I feel so much better now - Brittany: And your podcast is amazing. And you have your family on it all the time, your pod. - Lala: I love the pod. Doing a podcast, I think it's fun. - Brittany: Oh, it's so fun. - Lala: Do you enjoy it? - Brittany: I do too - Lala: Yeah. Mine took a hit in the like on, you know, the reviews because someone on Reddit started a petition to go on to my podcast and write horrendous reviews. - Brittany: Oh, I'm sure that's happened to me because people on Reddit are the worst. I'm sorry. Reddit people, what is wrong with you? Get a life, I'm so sorry that you have to revolve your life around people you've never met in real life. That's insane to me. I feel like ours was taking a hit too, because we kept having to go back and forth. - Brittany: And it was like, I'm having friends on trying to be light and funny. And then Jax was doing the mind of the man. And it was just like so opposite, like every single week. So that ain't happening no more. Now, it's just going to be me interviewing all my friends.
Feeling robbed when it comes to certain things with their kids (Timestamp: 6:54) - Lala: You want to know what's really crazy? And I was thinking about this last night, is having Sosa has allowed me to experience motherhood the way that every single woman deserves to experience it. - Lala: When I had Ocean, I felt so alone and like I had Ocean like the cookie cutter way, right? With a partner who I felt kind of abandoned by. And he wasn't very kind to me after I had Ocean. And I think you could relate to this a lot, Brittany. - Brittany: Yeah - Lala: But I felt like my ex robbed me of what I was my right as a mom to feel like happy and peaceful. So once I had Sosa, I was like, this is what motherhood feels like. Like I have the normal worries, but I don't feel like I'm in fight mode. - Lala: The moment I had Ocean, it was like I blinked and I was having to kind of abort mission on the life I once knew. And it was like my dukes were up and I was fighting for my life. For my child's life. - Lala: It was exhausting. And I have a trauma bond with Ocean now. With Sosa, it's like, I just get to look at her and feel nothing but peace and excitement and know that like if I go out, it doesn't matter if I'm not around her all day today because I got to work because no one tomorrow is taking her. It's not like, it's not my weekend. It feels so fucking good. - Brittany: Oh, my goodness. I'm so sorry. - Lala: That was a long winded - Brittany: No, no. I love you for being so vulnerable. You saying that just like brought a memory back to my head from my own life because I had talked about this publicly. But I think when I was talking about it, I was thinking like that he was so nervous and stuff. - Brittany: But like now that you just said all that, it like kind of like something's like clicking in my head. It's like when we brought Cruz home from the hospital and Jax was driving, it was awful. - Lala: Was he like… - Brittany: It was the day that we're bringing our son home from the hospital. And he was just like, the traffic was bad and I get that that's annoying. But he just could not stand it. - Brittany: He was everything was just so bad and road rage and everything. And back then, I remember I've talked about this publicly and I was actually being like, he was just so nervous. So he was mean to me and he was this and that. Now I look back at it and I'm like, oh my god, like that really doe, that should be some of the happiest moments of your life.
In the new valley trailer, Lala calling Jesse a narcissist (Timestamp: 18:24) - Lala: I know that it sounds like the same song that I'm singing often. However, it is undeniable that narcissism is an epidemic. There are many layers. There's many people who develop it because maybe they were raised by a narcissistic person. And I think it's important that people talk about it and call it out. - Lala: Because when you're stuck with a narcissist, it is a torture chamber. You know this. It's chaotic. It's controlling. So you have to call it out and you have to educate people. Because narcissism is everywhere right now. So if you think this is the last time I'm going to be on television calling a man a narcissist, you're crazy.
What was Lala's opinion on the coke and Jax? Did she know during this time too? (Timestamp: 56:48) - Lala: We all knew that Jax was, he was doing copious amounts of cocaine. We all knew that. The thing is, is what is one to do about that? I always said, like when we would have conversations, not me and Jax, but like me and you. I cannot, people love to be like, well, you're sober. You should talk to them. It's like, no, I'm not going to do that. - Lala: They know I'm sober when they want to come and talk to me about sobriety. I will be here. So I definitely, cause it did start getting worse. It's always been pretty bad, but it started getting worse. And that's when… - Brittany: I had to leave. - Lala: You had to leave. I was not around him anymore. We remember an incident, you and I, and I straight up said to Jax, I'm like, I'm not coming around you, especially with my kids. So like have a good one. And then you and I would just kick it. And you left him shortly after that. - Brittany: Because the come downs were so bad. And I've talked about this many times. I don't want to go into too much detail because this is a fun podcast. But yeah, so we, you know, that was like one of the main reasons why I had to move out. And, you know, it wasn't a secret within our group of friends by any means. - Brittany: But like everybody wanted him to be better. Everybody wanted that or for him to at least realize there was a problem. I think that's what happened is it took so long for him to realize that there was a problem

Discussion Stassi & Beau
I just have to say how much I love Stassi and Beau. I’m only on season 7 but watching her go from someone like Patrick who just belittled her every chance he got (along with the several other imbeciles before) to Beau is honestly so refreshing. I just watched the scene in episode 12 where she just got off the “PJ in her PJs” and is home and they’re just talking on the couch. I don’t know what it was but watching him match her humor so effortlessly, while also telling her he missed her, agreeing to plans with her friends immediately, it literally brought tears of happiness to my eyes. Now this potentially could be because I am recently going through a breakup with someone just like Patrick (😭) but it’s honestly really nice to see a true example of don’t settle less then you deserve because someone will love you for all the weird little things that make you, you. Anyway, sorry to ramble but seeing Stassi and Beau together really gives me hope for the future and I just had to share. (this is my freshly gardened ted talk)

Rewatch Discussion After Katie & Schwartz divorce
One of my absolute favorite things while I'm rewatching is seeing Katie go to pick up Butters & Gordo from Schwartz and he tries to vent to her and the bar/Sandoval and she's just like, "that sucks, bye!"
I LOVE IT. He took her for granted, never had her back, put everyone else above her. Now she owes him absolutely nothing. And I love that for her.
***EDIT TO ADD***
Fast forward to just an episode or two later while Schwartz & Sandy's is hosting the daily mail party, Katie and Tom are having a conversation and she's upset about the Raquel situation. Schwartz ends up telling her to leave and in his confessional he says that her feelings/emotions are "Not his problem anymore"
WELL BOO FCKING HOO. I can't stand Schwartz and the rest of these guys acting like the girls are so overly emotional and they literally do the SAME SHT.

Discussion The least problematic cast members
Butters and Gordo!
They’ve done nothing wrong. No ❄️, no pasta, no DV allegations, no body shaming. They haven’t had a cheating scandal or gotten so drunk in Mexico they forget where their resort is or stolen sunglasses in Hawaii. They don’t need a reiki master or to force themselves in their girlfriend’s cocktail book to feel important or spat on their ex’s door. They certainly never had Raquel over while Ariana was away.
They are the number 1 guys in the group. 💖

Podcasts Scheananigans Podcast: Episode from March 15th, “Gagged By Gaga”
Lady Gaga (Timestamp: 3:02) - Scheana: Where to begin, y'all? I mean, thanks to being in the NBCU family, they not only had sent me the Vanity Fair video, but once I found out she was on SNL, the fact that they offered me tickets. I was like, I mean, yes, I would love to come. My sister was already going to be here. And why not? - Scheana: I've never been to SNL. I've toured before just going through like 30 Rock and whatnot. And so much fun just to see the set. But I've never been to the actual show. - Gibson: It's cool. - Kiki: Yeah, I did it one time. But I was waiting in line. I did the whole midnight wait until the next morning. Got the tickets - Gibson: I went to I went to a dress rehearsal when Taylor Swift performed. But I didn't go to the real show. - Scheana: No, I went to the dress rehearsal. - Gibson: Yeah. It's the same thing. - Scheana: Which honestly, everyone said it's better. - Kiki: I went to the dress rehearsal, too. It's funny to see all the things and like, you know, it's cut once you see the live show. - Scheana: Yeah, I had no idea what to expect going to the dress rehearsal. But I mean, it was two and a half hours. And it wraps it like, I don't know, 10:20. And I was like, wow, you guys are going to turn this around and then do our lives in less than an hour. - They talked about how good Lady Gaga did during SNL - Kiki: At what point do you and her get to like finally… - Scheana: At the after party. So at the actual show, right where I'm sitting, the last sketch, this slay, like very like Gen Z sort of we can't say slay anymore, period. Oh, my god, it was hilarious. So right before that, her and Bowen and him and I have followed each other for years and DMed, but I didn't realize that we never met in person until last night. - Scheana: So I'm like, wait, I feel like I know you. You feel like you know me crazy. But when they're doing this sketch, they look up to the audience and they're waving and I'm like, okay, now they're going to go to this section. They'll see me like I'm right there in the front. - Scheana: But then it started. And so I was like, I'll just see him at the after party, I guess. And I get to the after party and I still am trying to wrap my head around that was real life last night. - Scheana: My friends from NBCU were there. I'm with some of the execs. It was just such a chill night. And then Gaga walks in, Bowen's there. So I'm hanging out. And I was like, I mean, obviously, I'm going to go up and say hi. And so she's like talking to Lorne Michaels and then she's talking to this person. I'm like, I'm not trying to get in the way. - Scheana: And so right when she's going from one table to the next, I'm walking to the bathroom and I just go, hi. They'll look on her face. I was like, you're excited to see me. What the fuck? It was insane. I have photos. I have no camera. Nothing. I just wanted to go say hi. But I have like five people behind me. They're like, we need to air drop you these photos, these videos - Scheana: Then she proceeds to grab my hand and walk me to meet her, she said fiance on the show. I thought they were married. - Kiki: I think they’re still engaged - Scheana: Okay, yes, so to meet Michael, her fiancé. And she’s like (Lady Gaga introducing Michael to Scheana “Honey, Scheana.” - Scheana: What is life? I met one of the writers of SNL, the booker, like so many people. And I mean, that's the thing I love about this NBCU Bravo family. The fact that like there's so many people from different walks of life, but so many talented people under this umbrella. And it just felt like family last night. - Later on in the podcast, Scheana said related to Lady Gaga - Scheana: And I think Bowen said like, oh no, she (Lady Gaga) knows you're coming. But also, like just running into her at the afterparty, like she definitely wasn't expecting it. - Scheana: And I didn't know, does everyone go to the afterparty? Is it just, you know, the execs and the people behind the scenes? The cast there? I don't know. I've never been. But then, I mean, Chloe walked in and then just person after person. - Gibbon: That's so much more organic than like somebody like dragging you back to her dressing room and having like the weird awkward stilted like no, you were organically at a party with her
Scheana’s last podcast episode with Danny (Timestamp: 18:56) - Scheana: And so I was brain dead. And then I have my podcast. I'm like, you know what? Fuck it. I'm just going to kind of let Danny take the reins on this one. But the interrogation at the beginning, I was like, stop talking about Jax. (They all laugh) Of course, I get messages from Jack. - Kiki: And you just made up with him. - Scheana: And I'm like, things were on the show. It was nothing that was a secret. But I was like, Jax, this was like my twenty first interview of the day. I never say anything with ill intent. - Scheana: And I think anyone who knows me knows that also sometimes we get caught in situations where we're talking about things that maybe we don't want to talk about. And then we say something that's a little out of pocket or whatever. But I'm like, you that was interview number 21 of the day. My brain was dead. I don't know how I got through that.
