You are listening to the Daily Roundup here as part of the Reality C Podcast. I’m your host reality. Steve. Thank you all for tuning in on this Wednesday. Got a really good show for you today. We’re gonna spend a lot of time talking about Episode one of The Valley last night. Got a lot of thoughts about what happened in that first episode and what we can come to expect this season.
And then on the back end we got some things to talk about in regards to legal matters. Laura Owens has filed for reconsideration. On the appeal that she lost, not surprising. You heard David Ingris on the debate with Rachel Juarez. He made it pretty clear that they were going to file reconsideration. Deanna Pappas and Steven Stagliano still battling it out in courts.
Steven is requesting a change in the custody agreement. Sean Lowe pops up back on social media for the first time since talking about the dog attacks and we have a pretty big death in the game show world and we’ll get to all that momentarily. So a lot of stuff to talk about in regards to the Valley Season two, which premiered last night on Bravo.
Yesterday when I was talking about it, I said, man, when I was hyping up. Last night’s episode, I said, man, it’s been, what, a year since we’ve seen this show. Didn’t it start like last April? It actually started last March 19th, and the last episode aired in the first week of June of 2024. So we haven’t seen this in 10 months, but basically this premier is a essentially a month later than it premiered last year.
So. It looks like we’re just gonna get to one season a year from these Valley people, and I guess that’s fine. It leaves you wanting more and it leaves you excited for when a season does start. Maybe if they ran two seasons in a calendar year, maybe it would get to be overkill. I don’t know. But. What’s interesting about last night’s episode is we weren’t three fucking minutes into the episode, and here is Jax Taylor telling a story about, well, Jax and Brittany were in a, basically a split screen.
It wasn’t actually a split screen, they were just going back and forth. Jacks was retelling a story that happened that wasn’t caught on camera and Brittany was telling the story to, I can’t even remember who it might have been, Janet. And basically Brittany tells the story of Jacks got mad because he saw on Brittany’s phone her sending sexy pictures to the guy that she was hooking up with at the time.
In the summer, Julian and Jax got so mad he flipped a table in front of their son, and Jax talked about the fact that he was so upset and he couldn’t believe that Britney did this even though both of them had agreed they were separated and were allowed to see other people. Yes, I understand. It’s one thing for you to say, I’m gonna see other people and you’re gonna see other people.
Yes. He was confronted with something he probably didn’t want to see the fact that his ex-wife, or the woman he was technically still married to was sending sexy photos to another man. I get it. He’s upset. However, Jack’s statement within the first three minutes of the episode saying, show me a guy that wouldn’t have handled the situation like I did again.
Jack Taylor doesn’t get it, never has gotten it, and probably never will get it. Show you a guy that won’t flip a table in front of his three-year-old autistic son. I don’t know every guy. I mean, yeah, I’m sure there’s some guys out there that have horrible, horrible tempers like he does, and some probably will.
But I’m guessing out of a hundred men who have a small child and are arguing with their wife. And, and maybe I’m giving, maybe I’m giving men too much credit here, but I think, I don’t know, out of a hundred men, I’d say five would flip a table. Maybe it’s 30 and I’m way off. I just don’t think, I mean, because it’s not something that would ever even cross my mind.
So I’m just speaking out of personal experience. None of my friends I know would do it. I, so it’s very hard for me to say, so I’m just throwing out the number. Maybe five. That might even seem a little high in my mind because it’s one thing to get mad and having an argument. People argue all the time, married couples, people in relationships.
Yes. And I’m sure he was very, very upset seeing on Brittany’s phone, her sending pictures to a dude. I get it, but it doesn’t mean you need to flip a table and yell at her in front of your son. So let me know what you think. How many men out of a hundred in the exact same position that Jax was in would flip a table And it wasn’t even on camera like you would think if this was caught on camera, it’d be like, oh, here it goes.
Jax playing it up knowing he has to put on a TV show. But he did this in private. So if he’s doing that in private, what else do you think he’s doing in private? So. Like I said, we weren’t three minutes in the episode and we get that story about Jack’s flipping tables. Wonderful. We’re, we’re in for a hell of a ride this summer, I’m sure.
One thing I want to commend somebody on this cast for, I want to commend Zach because Zach did something about his hair. You know the complaint all last season, it wasn’t just mine, it was a lot of people on social media like, does this guy have a wig? Does he spray paint his hair on? It literally doesn’t move now.
It doesn’t move in its current state as we saw in episode one last night. However, he at least flips it up in the front to where it wasn’t just literally like a bowl cut straight across his forehead like it was last season. So I commend Zach for listening to the internet and at least doing something different with his hair.
It just, it still looks like, it doesn’t look like it’s painted on anymore, but man, that thing does not move at all. I’ve just never seen a guy whose hair just does not move whatsoever. You know me. I’ve only seen. The last two seasons I saw on Bravo with Vander Pump Rules and Scan Deval. I only saw the reunion episodes and then I watched Season 11, so that’s all I have of this franchise and the people involved in it.
I’m seeing plenty of clips from past seasons of Vanderpump Rules and I don’t watch any of the Housewives shows, although I did watch the Dallas one because obviously it was in the. City that I live in. So I wanted to see locations and stuff that they went to. And Brandy Redmond was somebody that I became friends with a while back.
And I haven’t spoken to Brandy in a while, but she was someone I became friends with. She was on the podcast. Anyway, it’s the only Housewives episodes that I’ve ever seen are the two, or I can’t even remember if they did two or three seasons of Real Housewives of Dallas. If they did three. I didn’t watch the third season.
What I’m trying to get at is this, apparently it’s very prevalent in the Housewives franchise and just in the Bravo world, but the amount of vagina talk on this show is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I’m gonna try and keep track this season, but I have to believe at some point during every episode of the Valley season two, at some point, someone’s gonna reference either their own vagina or somebody else’s vagina.
It’s gonna happen because that’s, these people love talking about vaginas, even if it’s in a joke or a euphemism, whatever, but the amount of times they reference it, it’s just, it’s unreal. I’m not gonna go back and watch season one to see if it got mentioned at least once in every episode in that season.
It seems like it did. And we were right back at it last night in last night’s episode as Vagina Talk started up again. And it’s just like, oh boy. Like is this, is this what we’re getting all season long? The answer’s probably yes, because these women can’t not talk about their own vaginas or their friend’s vaginas and everything that goes on with it, whether it’s sex related or.
Look at what it looks like now after I birthed a kid. Like, okay. And look, I’m very well aware. I’m sure many of the women in the Real Housewives franchise have had surgery on their haws. I’m guessing they probably openly talk about it, how they had vaginal rejuvenation surgery. I know that’s a thing, and I know, in fact, I know, I don’t know who did it, but I know I remember reading a headline.
About somebody in the Housewives franchise. I don’t know if it was OC or Beverly Hills, I don’t know, but I know somebody’s had it. If not, multiple women in the Housewives franchise have had it done. Speaking of the Housewives franchise, so I turn on. The Valley about three minutes before it started. It started at eight 15 Central Time.
I turned it on around eight 12 and I’m catching the end of the episode before it, which was, I had to look at the info button ’cause I don’t know who these women are. I knew it was one of the Real Housewives seasons, but I don’t know them by their faces. I know some of the names, but I couldn’t put the faces together.
Anyway, it was part three of the reunion for Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Okay. I’m sure anyone that follows that show, probably a lot of you listeners. Are very well aware of that show. So I only saw the last three minutes where that one woman did not wanna participate in the cast photo, and she was just like, I’m out, I’m done.
I can’t deal with these women anymore. And then they show a clip of nine hours earlier. She’s like, I can’t wait to take a cast photo with everybody, so I don’t even know that woman’s name. And then the one woman goes to her room and says, oh my God, she left. We were supposed to do supper. I, I guess I could just easily Google who was the woman that walked out on the cast photo.
But can anyone, Timmy, can anyone just give me, I, I’m sure if you’ve watched the season, you know, and you watched the reunion show last night, you know, can anyone give me the short, short, short version of why she didn’t want to take a cast photo and who she is? I’m just curious. No, I’m not gonna go back and watch the full season.
I don’t know any. Isn’t Erica Jane, wasn’t she one of those blondes? Right? I’m, I’m right about that one. And then the other one, there’s a, there’s there was a brunette standing next to Andy. She was the one, oh gosh. Was she the one married to the dancer on Dancing with the Stars? Mauricio, wasn’t that his ex-wife?
Isn’t she on house size of Beverly Hills? Her name is escaping me. And then the rumors that she’s now dating a woman. God, I’m blanking on her name. It’s not the tip of my tongue, but I think I got those two right. Every other one. I had no clue who those people were. None. And that’s, and I know you’re probably just like, oh my gosh, Steve.
Well, yeah, I don’t watch the show, but the fact that even no two names when I’ve never seen one episode of the show, I, I’d give myself credit for that. Right. Just because they’re constantly in the news or you constantly see their faces. Oh my God. Who is Mauricio’s ex-wife? What’s her name? It’s driving me up a wall.
I don’t wanna hit pause and then Google and get it right, but I’m going to, because it’s driving me nuts. So hang on. Kyle Richards. That’s it. See, came back quick. Google. All I had to do was Google Mauricio’s name and her, her name pops up right away. I believe that was her. And seeing the picture that, yeah, I think that was, I think that was her.
So I think her and Erica Jane, those, the only two I’d know. The woman that walked out, no clue who that was. Garl, is that, is that what they were saying her name was? She didn’t wanna take a cast photo Anyway. One other thing that I noticed during commercial break, and I actually think I saw this, the promo for it over the weekend, or maybe the end of last week.
So on Bravo, they’re starting this show called Next Gen NYC, and the daughters of Kim Zak Zak. K Burris and Tr Theresa. I don’t even, I’ve never known how to pronounce this. And then when Sean and Catherine got married and Catherine spelt her last name, I believe the same way. I thought it was gii, but I think it’s Judas, not Judas Gidi.
See, I’m very, I don’t know shit when it comes to the Housewives. I, I know. I mean, I could, if you put Theresa. GDI in my face, I would know exactly who she is. Yes, I know who she is. I’ve just never known how to pronounce her last name. And then when Sean married Katherine, it really screwed me up. Or when Katherine appeared on The Bachelor and had the same exact last name and I believe spelled it the same exact way, I was just like, oh, I’m clueless.
So anyway, next Gen NYC, the daughters of these women are now gonna be parading around New York and hooking up and whatever. Please don’t tell me I need to get hooked on that show. Please. One final thing I wanted to say, and this is about Jacks. He said at the end of the episode when he was talking to Tom Schwartz and Tom Schwartz is like, man, I’ve never seen you this bad.
You are low. You know you can’t do that. You can’t flip out, do it for, do it for Cruz. Don’t lose your cool, all this stuff. And Jack said, I’m 45 years old. What is wrong with me? Well, at the time you said this, Jax, we all know what was wrong with you. You were a major cokehead and an alcoholic. That’s what’s wrong with you at the time you said it.
So now I guess we’re gonna see him check himself into rehab this season. Maybe he’s gonna miss a few episodes, but he is a walking hot mess and we’re seeing it play out in episode one, and I’m sure we’re gonna see it play out all season long. Tomorrow I’m gonna talk a little bit more about the other people on the episode because really all I stuck to was, you know, some of the things that I noticed, Zach and his hair, and Brittany and Jax.
But there are so many people. We gotta talk about Kristen and Luke and we gotta talk about Grant and or Janet and Jason and Jesse and Michelle. Boy, they are a train wreck waiting to happen.
