new drinking game: take a shot every time nick brings up and compares his bachelor experience to literally anything during the show

In regard to the death of Lala's father, Ariana was saying that she needed to buck up in regard to expecting sympathy from the VPR cast. When Ariana's father died, while being on the show, the cast called her Debbie Downer, Kristen was vile to her (even though that was a layered response because she and Tom had just broken up), Jax was saying slick shytt to her, it was brutal. So Ariana was saying that Lala was basically looking for sympathy in the wrong place because these people lack sympathy.

Not to defend ariana, but she did explain in the reunion that what she meant by "toughening up" to lala was that nobody gave ariana grace or was there for her when her dad died. she was saying nobody in the cast was going to give you grace or going easy on her. She was called a downer by jax and boring or to sad because she was mouring

Nick cutting off his guest while ranting about VPR actually made me laugh out loud

I’m ruthless. If I were Arianna I would’ve sat with Tom AND scheana and Lala since they pushed for it, let him say his peace and I would’ve looked at them and said “oh was that good for you? Now we are no longer friends this is done so you’re free to stop crying over feeling like you’re in the middle” lmao I’d block and move on. Never another thought of that friendship again

Nick’s retelling of that scene with Lala and Ariana is not accurate. Ariana was one of the only people defending Lala and there for her when her dad died.

Nick is actually a big ass hater lol I find it comical the amount of shit he chats about these people and then begs it to them when they come on his pod, keep the same energy.

HOT TAKE: Katie was NEVER a mean girl, or unlikeable...unless you were one of the many, many Tom and Tom sympathizers.

Kristen said she misspoke first she said dan was at Sheanas wedding but she recant that statement and said she was referring to seeing them at Applebees

IT'S BEEN 1 YEAR SINCE THIS HAPPENED, THEY STARTED FILMING 3 MONTHS AFTER, AND ENDED FILMING 6 MONTHS AFTER. WHY ON EARTH DOES SHE HAVE TO "GET OVER IT" ON EVERYONE ELSE'S TIME TABLE?!?!?! LIKE LET THE GIRL HEAL, IN HER OWN TIME! They were in a TEN year relationship, and you think she should be able to get over a traumatic breakup, affair, scandal that ignited the WORLD, in 6 months bc Lala thinks it's time?! like WHEN DID SHE GET OVER RANDALL? Oh yeah, we're still waiting.

17min. In… Nick! Your wife needs jewelry. Especially for her first Mother’s Day! (Warranted for most special occasions.)

You only get one first Mother’s Day once and sleep as a gift?! She should’ve gotten that necklace lol or at least something sentimental

Natalie wanted that mother's day gift lol

jo may be having a psychotic break lol. also natalie blink once if youre okay

Schwartz isn’t loyal to Sandoval…it’s more of a codependency with him and Sandoval manipulates him.

Nick clearly changing his opinion on VPR after living in the comments from the last podcast…

We need more Danny’s in the world. So supportive of his wife, aware of the 5 love languages, and clearly has emotional intelligence. He doesn’t make the most exciting TV but he is giving very real life stuff. Him and his wife are serious couple goals

ALI the chemistry in idea of you was amazing!!!!

No chemistry in The Idea of You? Someone check her pulse…. 😂 It was so good!

Y’all suck!!!! Now you guys are trying to switch up 😂

You should have given her a piece of jewelry for her first Mother’s Day.. What was Natalie Joys push present?

Here’s the thing people say, get over usually when they actually mean pretend it didn’t happen Because you just want the person to act like they’ve never been hurt then I actually appreciate that they’ve been hurt and this is going to change them and they’ve got to deal with that change She’s not holding onto anger and resentment if it was less than a year since this happened and she was dealing with a pretty damn good but she doesn’t have to pretend Tom is someone he isn’t to be considered getting over. It doesn’t have to pretend Tom is a nice guy who didn’t do anything wrong, and he deserves her attention. She can move on with never having to talk to that man again that is moving on. She learned her lesson from him. She’s not gonna repeat it she’s moving on, but she’s not gonna go back and pretend he didn’t do what he did just to make him look good on the show.

Nick: “There’s nothing more annoying than somebody telling you to get over it” Lily: “She’s gotta get over it.” Lol what??

vpr takes have been so bad bc yall dont use context and now nick is giving team sandoval

Lala and Schena are definitely mom friends

Dude what is up w Ally, the movie the idea of you was so good the hell

“They” are saying Tom Sandoval staged the whole drunk guy situation at the finale 😂😂. What a guy🙄🙄

Did Lilly rose talk?

So nick needs to listen to the others on the podcast because sometimes it feels like he is just waiting for them to stop talking so he can say what he wants. And then doesn't recognize what their saying or changes the topic completely. He even re says what they litterally just said.... but wrong lol. Like he will change one fact but that one fact is super important. Super annoying.

57:59 it’s a reality show the fans watched it because we wanted the reality to tell us you’re just putting on an act in your scripting. This all out is a smack in the face. If we wanted scripted television, we would’ve watched scripted television The overproduced bullshit to me, is the opposite of doing their job because I should not be able to tell that you’re pushing a story I mean if you’re doing your job right on the reality show

i wish they would acknowledge and answer their guests' questions when she asks what you think hes like behind closed doors? They just all railroaded her and were talking amongst themselves about VPR and not including their guest. Justin interacted with Lily more than anything during this convo.

56:40 there’s a difference between being loyal and being codependent As you can be loyal to people, and still hold them accountable for their actions When you’re codependent, you can’t

Kristen (from VPR) has said multiple times that when she said she saw Dan at Scheana's wedding, she misspoke. She'd actually seen/met him in San Francisco. People are desperate to find a way to tarnish Ariana.

It’s time to retire the phrase “It’s giving”

You guys are genuinely gross, the she has to get over it, oooo woman anger. Let’s just use nicks very clear frustration when interviewing Tom- very minimal relationship with the dude, and Nick posted like a baby. If Tom could elicit that from Nick with minimal interaction. Imagine the thoughts and feelings for Ariana. Also Nick I don’t think you’re over your past you bring it up more than lala brings up Randall. Women are allowed to have emotions, not a mention of Tom’s 20+ meltdowns just in this season.

About that Lindsay and Carl’ conversation on his possible return to Loverboy: I’m surprised that no one made the parallel with what was shown in this episode of Kyle’s narrative about work. Kyle sees his own work as fully dedicated and long hours (18 hours a day he says when he explodes outside) versus the perpetual lacking hours or dedication of his co-workers. Last summer, the viewers were given the impression that Carl had let Kyle down by not showing up enough at work, etc. This year (and previous years), he’s said that Amanda is lazy or not working enough. But who in their right mind want to work 18 hours a day? What if Amanda or Carl were just working a solid 8 hours a day and just not appreciated enough by Kyle? To me, hearing Lindsay comparing going back to Loverboy with going back to an ex, for, in the end, having to witness Kyle blowing up about how people deserve to be fired if they do not comply to an insane and unhealthy amount of work, was just an omen or the evidence we waited for agreeing with Lindsay.

WTF are they talking about? Ariana filmed everything but a conversation with the Asshat. Why does everyone keep ignoring the fact that they started filming this show LESS that 6x months after the scandal.? That Production AGREED to Ariana's boundaries before she came back & used the cast to get what they wanted anyway. What everyone was really saying is that the audience doesn't want to see them or care about their BS. Instead of focusing on their own lives like Katie & James, they kissed Tom's ass with a BS redemption story. And stop talking about agreeing with Lauren when she was a jealous hypocrite the entire season. Did you forget how she kept Randal off the show? Scheana was the worst traitor with that Tom friendship bs when he was constantly yelling at her. Scheana lost me when she talked to Ariana about how SHE has always talked about being on DWTS & Broadway. How the hell was that Ariana's problem? Scheana was selfish & only thought of herself as usual. Cutting Scheana, Lauren, & the Toms out of Ariana & Katie's lives is the best thing for them. Those people only understand loyalty when they expect to receive it from others.

I love Nick, but I feel like he should take a speech class. The way he says “literally” like “lily” confuses the crap out of me 🥴

Won’t be watching if Lala goes to the valley.

Ariana didn't tell Lala to get over Lala's dad's death. She asked her to stop taking out her pain on the friend group.

Oh I remember the dad comment. It was because LaLa was lashing out and being highly antagonistic because her dad had died. Which is understandable, but LaLa was being really cruel. Also, Ariana’s father had passed away as well, which was why she brought up what her expectations of others were when she faced something similar.

The changing table issue, get the Beís ultimate diaper backpack. It has a built in changing pad! Has saved me so many times

Great BOY BAND analogy by Nick about the Pump Rules cast!

LMAOOO HARRY DIDNT LEAVE THE BAND ZAYN LEFT THE BAND HARRY STAYED. And even after zayn left they were still one direction for one more year lmaook

Wow yes, futzing around is just like wasting time, being busy with oneself lol Learned something new today, thank you Nick

Natalie is correct; NYC is NOT baby friendly--I grew up in NYC and that is how it's always been.

I can’t stand Jax and his delivery is terrible but he isn’t completely wrong about Brittany and her drinking. 🤷🏽‍♀️ She has alcohol related health issues & keeps drinking alcohol. ….. that would be annoying to me too.

Love how much you love being a dad. More babies and mothers deserve this kind of energy in a father/partner

1:01:41 yeah, her and Dan had mutual friends that’s how they met. They ran into each other at a wedding and they met each other at sheena’s wedding before that. They have crisscrossing friend circles

The only reason Ariana said Lala needed to get over her dad's death was because she was lashing out and picking fights and blaming her grief. Ariana had lost her dad a year or so prior, and she related and was looking to help. They actually did come to a very unified understanding after that. Lala was trying to give Ariana that same hard truth this season, but it just kept being related to her breakup, so it became more of a misunderstanding than a constructive conversations..

i thought i saw you walking in the LES the other day!

“Where can I find that internship” TRUEEEEEE SOOO REALLL

Do you guys watch or are interested in thr Goat 🐐 on Amazon prime? I think it should be part of your reality recap! Just a suggestion! Love what you do!!

Love hearing about your baby

The switch up lol

I would argue that Schena s hanging on to Tom because he would be a ticket for the show to keep going more than Ariana would be...

Does Nick know another word than fascinating?😂

Lmaoo i have the ask nick song stuck in my damn head from binge watching them the last 2 days 💃🏻 question time with Nick let’s ask Nick your sexy questionssss 💃🏻🎶

i have a 6 month old and totally agree with Natalie.. things are so different in Europe

This new generation is putting people at their mercy . Schools in other Countries are a narrative, Architecture to Contracting , Music to Cleopatra, straight away . Washburn trade schools are in America . Fatherhood & Motherhood change your lifestyle . Some people are into hairstyles, clothes, makeup, music, houses, & cars. How many careers & cooperation do you participate in ?

Amanda is pursuing her passion now I think they worked it out lol

Great episode! Interesting re Jo giving "Baby Reindeer" at this moment in time. Very un-nerving

“They hate each other” TRUEEEEE 💀💀💀💀

What’s stupid is every keeps forgetting that this was filmed what… 3 months after the scandal??? Who is expected to be over this stuff 3-6 months after a huge betrayal. If someone was telling lala that she’d lose her fucking mind. Ariana will get over it obviously so people saying she’s not getting over it… how do you get over something if it keeps getting shoved down your throat? As Ariana said. Omfg it’s mind blowing. We’re all over it bc we’ve had to digest it for over a year now. I’m sure she’s further from where she was.

Nick defending brock pardon

“They’re both nuts” FACTSSSD

This comment is regarding the previous episode where Nick talks about Marias conspiracy theory that he told production to make her villain. If you listen to Kaitlin Bristow’s podcast, she explains that it was just a joke. She said on the call her daddy podcast. It’s interesting that Nick could’ve just had a conversation with her to clear that up. He’s the one giving relationship advice and yetinto something negative when he could’ve just sent her a message or picked up the phone and cleared it all up very quickly. It’s almost like he wants the negative attention sometimes to bring more people to watch the podcast or have headlines. I agree with 95% of what he says and does, but in this circumstance, a quick conversation could’ve prevented all of it. That’s it love your show, though!

Don't you know (it's been brought up a bunch of times) that Jo was best friends with Kristen Doute for years (AFTER she was fired from VPR) so how can you call HER a fan that just wants to be on the show? She met everyone through Kristen when Kristen wasn't on the show! Yet Schwartz's new girlfriend IS a legit fan but you fawned over her-even had her join him on your podcast LOL. Were you not listening to how they met? As the cast has always said (or let slip) in interviews, no one goes to Sur for the food (now anyway). They're all fans. Many whom continuously stalk the place hoping they'll catch the cast filming and get to meet them (or get hired). Sophia said in your interview that she was taking her friend to SUR for her birthday but then they "heard" (how-without bringing up the cast to someone?) that James Kennedy was DJing at TomTom, so they went over there and that's how she met Schwartz. She said she "randomly" saw Tom there and "he was lookin' hot so I simply just told him and that was it." Schwartz wasn't trying to go into detail-probably knowing how she sounds. He said (twice) that "we didn't talk for a long time after that," just a brief interaction, etc. She jumps in w/ "he was kinda hard to catch to be honest. I told him I wanted to go on a dinner date with him and he was like 'yeah yeah yeah' (like blowing her off at first) but once we did, you couldn't get away from me." She said at first when she met him, she wasn't planning on asking for his number or anything, she just wanted to say hi." So she did & they chatted over drinks, etc. After that, her friends wanted to leave so she went back to say goodbye to him (sure ya did) but couldn't find him anywhere (he had left & gone to the bar next door). She was about to leave but decided to "circle around once more" 🤔and ran into Kyle "dragging" him back to the bar. She said it was "a sign" (pretty sure you were already sold at that point w/ the "circling around once more" admission) and asked him "Can I give you my number?" ANOTHER RED FLAG: she met Katie "randomly" prior to meeting Schwartz! What a coincidence! Sorry but I had to go back and quote her exact words so you'll recognize the absurdity in calling Jo (a friend Kristen met when she was CANCELED) a fan, but not pick up on THIS blatant fangirl behavior? Even HE joked with the 8x10 autograph bit and she did not like that one, that's for sure. We're all sensitive over comments that have a ring of truth. You're usually pretty quick to analyze/call out odd behavior so for you to witness this firsthand and react like you're watching a romcom? Strange. Was Natalie your fan? Is that why? When Sophia said she walked up and told Schwartz he was hot and that was it, Natalie said she did the same with you so....? Nothing wrong with that btw but you can't clown someone for being a fan when they became friends with an ex cast member but choose to ignore this.

“That’s too goood” 💀💀💀💀

Jo is Shwartz' karma. This is for all the years he called her Crazy Katie. She was never crazy she was the most normal person there.

Is Nick being fun Nick😂😂😂

❤❤

Kyle said WHAAAAAAAAT!!!! And he has a mullet- not sure which is worse. 🤔

You didn’t just suggest her to get over you questioned the time that it’s taking her while STILL having to be around him

❤❤❤❤

And to add to Kyle's bad look, after offering zero support to his wife and throwing a childlike fit, he is now pursuing his passion of becoming a DJ like a giant hypocrite.

Funny u brought up the cowboy boots, I'm so used to the high top tennis shoes I just can't see the cowboy boots on u. But if ur wife loves them on u then that's all that matters. POV

Came back to write that I really sincerely hope Nick doesn’t defend Sandoval’s comments on tonight’s reunion about Rachel. No matter how you feel about her it was gross and disgusting.

Us Weekly: Top 10 Reality Stars of 2023 1st Place: Ariana Madix 🙌🏼

I wonder if Amanda’s parents still hate Kyle because her parents said that their family will hate him for a long time

Zayn how left one direction not harry styles

Y’all need to be more open to horoscopes and astrology. I get that when you don’t understand something it’s easy to dismiss it but you’d be surprised how accurate and helpful it can be.

Girl run. He is tom in the making

Nick, your perspectives on the cast of vanderpump are all very isolated, based on instances without the context of any other moments or instances. People who Stan for Ariana are for the most part adding up all the receipts, and then making decisions accordingly. The cast, you playing devil’s advocate, and the handful of real people with conviction (excluding recreational trolls and bots) have to compare moment to moment without context to reframe whatever they need to. That’s why all of the of fans are coming for Jeremiah the bullfrog and Andrew Baskin Robins… this whole narrative they are explicitly committed to is so misogynistic at its core. It’s honestly the most “real” thing about this show. It’s why I want future reality tv shows to do after shows with the producers instead of the cast… explain why we’re seeing what we’re seeing and what we maybe aren’t seeing and WHY

Just a heads up, on the Mica case, she definitely killed herself. However, it's about what - if anything - they can do about him obviously pushing her to that in a way.

Is it just me or did Lea talk more than Nick or Natalie 😵‍💫

I love all the takes on poor Ariana having go through this on tv. She is the one that called production after she found out about affair. Production ruined this show by filming so soon after last season and only having one thing to talk about so It forced these fake interactions. And Ariana is being a tad selfish. She has all these things going on outside vpr so she doesnt really need it. The others do so leave and quit messing it up for those who want to play ball when she was the one who involved production in the first place

Please find out what Joe did that made Tom Schwartz not have anything to do with her after that. He said it was bad but he wouldn't reveal whatt it was.

Jo gives Swimfan vibes

Still team Ariana. Lala is a hater.

Arianna's walk out was EPIC, VPR would be fine without Arianna.

These shows are not pure reality but a version of it. In real life, most people will stifle conflict just so they can get along. So my assumption is that the challenge of these shows is to have open confrontations about the stuff you'd normally zip your lip about and not rock the boat on. So I really don't understand why there is the hate for Scheana, Lala, Jax, etc when they are doing just that. If they were going to keep their feelings mum to support Ariana, and/or Brittany it would be real life and we wouldn't be watching it as entertainment.

I can't watch the Valley because of Jax, I just cannot with him.

Lala is showing nothing but sheer jealousy. Not attractive.

I can’t stand no Robert Kraft jokes like don’t show up.

The amount of people that’s on the podcast is TOO much. Downgrade please. It’s not doing you any good.

NOT A HOT TAKE: lol BUT THE MOVIE IDEA OF YOU IS SOOOOOOOOO BEYOND GOOD I CANT BELIEVE THEY WERE SAYING IT WAS HORRIBLE AND SO BAD!?!?!?! SMH LIKE WHAT!?!?!?!??! ITS THE #1 MOVIE ON PRIME RIGHT NOW, AND ALL LAST WEEK AND THE WEEK after IT CAME OUT!!!!!!!!! SMH lol THAT MOVIE IS SOOO GOOD I WATCHED IT 5 TIMES ALREADY AND WILL WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!!!!! ITS SOOOO SOOO SOOO GOOD!!!!!!!! AND ITS NOT ABOUT HARRY STYLES EITHER!!!!!! SMH IM SO SICK OF SEEING ppl say that this movie is based on Harry styles relationship wit Olivia wild, BC its NOT AT ALL!!!! ITS A BOOK TURNED INTO A MOVIE AND THE BOOK WAS WRITTEN WAY WAY BEFORE HARRY STYLES EVEN DATED OLIVIA WILD!!!!!!!! SMH SOO IDK WHAT MOVIE SHE ACTUALLY WATCHED LMAO BC IDEA OF U IS SOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!! THIS MOVIE, IDEA OF YOU IS ABOUT A 40 YO single mom, who got divorced a year ago, and hasn't dated, shes happy, she works full time, and enjoys her life to THE FULLEST, and just so happens to have to step up and take her daughter and her daughters friends to Coachella to see this band August Mood, bc the dead beat dad and stepmom or dads gf end up having to go to the office instead, SMH The band, which is like NSYNC in todays age lol, hot young guys in their 20s who dance and sing lol. SOO Anne who's the single mom, takes her daughter and friends to Coachella and shes a typical 40 something mom who doesn't really kno the ins and outs of Coachella and where the bathrooms are and how to do things or handle things wit the teenage era lol, social media and all that, so she goes to the bathroom and it happens to be 1 of the singers of August moons private trailer, bc when she asked where the bathrooms were someone pointed that way and told her that's where they were lol WELL shes thinking its a public bathroom and its obv not so HAYES the singer from the band is in there and he comes outta the bathroom after she knocks thinking its public, and he comes out of the bathroom and looks at her like wtf are u doing in MY trailer lol, and she goes into the bathroom, gets done, and then comes out with him still sitting there on the couch, so she feels weird that while she went to the bathroom he was sitting right outside of it listening LMAO even tho he wasn't cuz its HIS trailer, BUT again SHE doesn't know that lol. SO they meet and he feels a strong connection off rip, so after Coachella he finds her at her work and goes there to see her, and buys everything in the art gallery which is HER gallery and they connect over ALOT of things that u wouldn't think a 40 YO and a 20 something yo would connect over, they fall in love and Anne from the begining doesn't understand that dating someone famous like HAYES comes wit a bunch of baggage and crazy stuff, ALOT of complications and judgement from the outside world obv, her daughter starts to get bullied at school and it basically becomes so hard for them to be together and be happy, HAYES is willing to give up EVERYTHING for Anne, he loves her, and shes kinda on the fence the whole time I felt like she wasnt letting her gaurd down fully. Like FOR ME I'm a single mom of 2 girls younger under 12, and I JUST turned 35 SMH and I felt I related REALLY well to this movie, I mean I'll never meet anyone famous lol but I felt like women MY age 30+ dating is HELL!!!! SMH lol I was with their dad for over 14 years and was physically and mentally abused the whole time and after, so were my kids, so I felt like I related bc I would DEFF date a younger man like Hayes IF he had the same goals and dreams as this guy in this movie, Hayes is VERY mature for 24 and knows what he wants and I feel like he really helped Anne and open her eyes to A LOT of things she felt and how she wanted her life to be like, he helped her feel AMAZING about herself and her situation and THATS WHAT EVERY woman needs in life!!!! A HAYES CAMPBELL LOL THIS MOVIE WAS TRULY AMAZING AND I LOVED IT ALOT CLEARLY!!!!!!!! lol

SURMISE
