RHOA S17 E8: The Nigerian Comment Heard Around Atlanta

RHOA S17 E8: A Soundbath Breakdown

On this week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, the cast attempts to find peace at a “healing” sound bath hosted by Phaedra Parks — but absolutely nobody leaves healed. The episode opens with the women juggling personal chaos: Kelli struggles with financial pressure as her new restaurant location underperforms and child support issues with her ex continue to affect both her family life and paycheck. Meanwhile, Shamea gets emotional discussing her surrogacy journey after multiple failed embryo transfers, while Porsha continues her confusing love triangle between Mike and Sway, complete with heavily produced family scenes, awkward flirting, and plenty of unanswered questions about what she really wants.

Elsewhere, alliances are becoming impossible to ignore. Phaedra, Porsha, Angela, and Drew appear firmly grouped together, while K. Michelle continues hinting that there’s a coordinated effort to gather information on her behind the scenes. At dinner, K finally confronts the group directly, accusing Porsha, Drew, and Phaedra of plotting against her while also revisiting previous drama involving rumors, hospital comments, and conversations with her ex. Drew and K immediately descend into yelling, Phaedra unsuccessfully attempts to play peacemaker, and K continues speaking in riddles about Porsha communicating with her former man behind her back.

The “peaceful” retreat fully implodes during dinner when long-simmering frustrations boil over into one of the messiest group confrontations of the season. Between floating accusations, relationship confusion, fake-feeling flashbacks, Phaedra randomly becoming a flute player and reiki master, and Kelli reaching her breaking point, the episode feels chaotic in every direction. Just when it seems the group might settle down, Kelli drops the explosive line that sends the table into total meltdown mode — proving once again that no wellness event on Atlanta can ever stay calm for long.

Kelli (00:01.486)
Hi, welcome to rewind whenever, I'm Kelly.

lori (00:04.49)
And Laurie.

Kelli (00:07.536)
Tonight we're going to talk about Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 17 Episode 8, a sound bath breakdown. Wendy is on vacation. I forgot to call cousin Gina. Lori doesn't watch Atlanta, but we're going to get through it. We're going to do it.

lori (00:23.574)
I watched I I really didn't know what was going on, but I I did watch it. I did watch it.

Kelli (00:30.424)
Well, two things I'd like to do our call to action and ask you to please go to our YouTube and subscribe, Instagram and follow, Facebook follow, TikTok follow, share, like, and give us five star reviews. Thank you. All things, do all the things please. And thank you, we appreciate it. And second, I just want to bring up that apparently some people think that we shouldn't recap Atlanta because we're

lori (00:46.074)
all the things. Do all the things.

lori (00:58.958)
'Cause we're old and white.

Kelli (01:00.554)
Old white women. We are old white women. We say every fucking week, we are old, we are white. Well, we don't say we're white, but if you watch us, it's pretty apparent. Don't tell me what we can and can't recap. I'll watch whatever the fuck I want and talk about it. That's the beauty of us having a podcast. Especially don't tell me because of the color of my skin. I'll watch whatever I want. I'll talk about whatever I want.

lori (01:05.016)
We are.

lori (01:11.074)
You'll know our white. Yeah.

lori (01:22.062)
Yeah, feel free. Feel free to scroll. Yeah.

Kelli (01:29.316)
And you could just keep scrolling.

lori (01:31.286)
Absolutely. Yeah. I I was very confused by that that and I believe it was from a young white girl, so I was doubly confused. But you know, you you you people do whatever you want. We're gonna do what we want. You know, we're talking about a scripted show and it's where everybody who gets all jacked up, you all need to calm your role.

Kelli (01:41.22)
HA!

Kelli (01:47.78)
I'm sorry.

Kelli (01:52.996)
That's right.

lori (01:59.15)
There's a lot of serious shit going on and this is not it. This is not it. This is not it. Except for me, and this Atlanta was quite torturous because I had no idea what was going on. And it's a lot. It's lot. But I do like a sound bath. I do like a sound bath.

Kelli (02:04.12)
Right, this is a guilty pleasure for all of us.

Kelli (02:23.992)
I love a sound bath. Okay, one more thing before we get into it. So there was three things I wanted to bring up, nanny nanny. My nephew's band is called Desert Jellies and I'm wearing the t-shirt right now. And they just dropped a new single and it's called Creations Eye and it's on YouTube and Spotify and it's really good. I'm probably gonna put the link up as long as Lori and Wendy are okay with that. Because it's a really good song, they just dropped their single Desert Jelly, D-E-S-E-R-T.

lori (02:46.509)
Could care less what you do.

Kelli (02:52.406)
I misspell that a lot. are not dessert jellies. They are desert jellies. Yeah, but the new single is really good.

lori (02:57.005)
Okay. And I gotta ask, where did the name come from? Do we know? Of their band? Yeah.

Kelli (03:04.42)
Desert jellies?

Well, if you Google desert jelly, if you Google desert jelly, I don't even want to say it. Google, Google desert jelly. Google, Google it. As his aunt, I don't want to, you know, I don't want to think about it. OK, all right. So we're going to get into Atlanta. So this was episode eight feels like episode 80 of this season. I ain't lying.

lori (03:13.515)
Yeah. I'll I'll Google I'll Google it. I'll Google it. I'll answer my own question. Okay, good. I will. I'm on it.

Okay, I gotcha. I gotcha. Okay.

Kelli (03:38.072)
This it feels like it. don't remember a time in my life before this season of Real Housewives of Atlanta started.

lori (03:46.441)
Okay. It's been going on quite some time.

Kelli (03:50.52)
Yeah

lori (03:51.778)
So I have an observation and I I want you to tell me if I'm correct or not. The only one that I saw who I think

Kelli (03:55.161)
Great.

lori (04:03.019)
had any modem of sanity was the one who owns the restaurants?

Kelli (04:09.55)
Kelly?

lori (04:10.925)
I don't know. I don't know everybody's name. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Kelli (04:12.1)
She owns Nana's Chicken and Waffles. She was sitting there with her mom and her Nana. I personally like Kelly. People are not a huge fan of hers. The problem with Kelly is that her ex-husband is causing a lot of problems for her litigation-wise because he will not let... She has her daughter who we see her with in college. That's not his daughter, but her other three children are. She has two twin girls and then another daughter.

lori (04:26.253)
Well, why is that her problem?

Kelli (04:41.358)
he will not let them film. you know, by not, Kelly to me is a great housewife because she does share things. Although we learn in this episode that she's had a boyfriend for a year. the problem with Kelly right now is that her ex-husband is causing so many problems for her. She's having a hard time being forthcoming with what's going on in her life. And to be a good housewife, you have to show people what's going on. Maybe not every single thing, but you gotta show something and he's...

lori (04:42.827)
He won't let them film, right.

lori (04:49.741)
Mm-hmm.

lori (05:02.37)
Right.

lori (05:06.197)
Right. Right.

Kelli (05:11.06)
he's putting that block up for her. I like Kelly personally.

lori (05:11.445)
Right, right, right. Right.

She seemed like the most sane one. Like that was my that was kind of my observation, but I don't know.

Kelli (05:22.048)
Yeah, I mean, she's definitely down to earth. mean, you got Portia who's got the Vicky, Teresa, Nene complex where they think the show revolves around them. And quite honestly, people on social media are saying it like it's Portia's show, it's Portia's show. I don't like that personally. Phaedra, she just kind of reads everybody and you know.

says whack shit about everybody and their confessionals.

lori (05:50.807)
She's the one sh one who had the party?

Kelli (05:56.377)
Yeah, she had the soundbath party, Angela's married to Charles Oakley, who's an ex-New York Nick, so I just love her, because she's married to Charles Oakley. Who else we got? Pinky's new. Pinky owns a vegan restaurant. Drew sucks, not a good housewife. Actress, always acting, always acting.

lori (05:57.152)
Okay, okay, okay, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. She does the Reiki. Okay.

lori (06:20.213)
Is she the one that's getting the infertility stuff?

Kelli (06:25.484)
No, that's Shemeah. She talking about a donor? Yeah, that's Shemeah. Shemeah and Portia have been best friends since middle school, but had a falling out last season and are no longer friends. Like legit, legit they were best friends since middle school. Their mothers were friends. Shit went down with their mothers. Yeah, that's sad to me, you know?

lori (06:27.117)
That's Shimia, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's

lori (06:45.301)
that's horrible.

that's yeah.

Kelli (06:52.398)
So Kelly's at the Chicken and Waffle place where her mom and Nana, and her mom says that the kitchen needs more training. She just opened a new location. We saw the opening, the grand opening, and she's saying it's not doing well. She's owed 50K in child support.

lori (07:11.837)
that's painful.

Kelli (07:13.669)
Yeah. And then she says like her ex won't let her kids film and that messes with her paycheck and it's a control tactic.

lori (07:19.543)
Our paycheck, right. Right, right. 'Cause they filmed before, right? So then of course, yeah.

Kelli (07:25.236)
Absolutely, her first season, I want to say it was her third season on the show. Yeah. And they did film the first season and she was like just separated. And then she tells us that she is dating someone she's been dating for a year and his alias is Jarvis and they met at an Atlanta Hawks game. So I'm curious to see who she's dating. I guess if we did some sleuth work, we could.

figure it out online, but whatever.

lori (07:55.457)
Yeah. good for her.

Kelli (07:58.371)
Yeah. So Kay Michelle, the one who goes to the dentist's office with her husband, who is a dentist, her husband, she is a singer and started out as like R &B, I think, but her passion was country music, but her manager, the label, nobody would really let her dive into that country genre because at the time it just wasn't like, it wasn't very popular for black people to be doing that.

But now she's doing it. Yeah, she's very happy. So she's still talking about the plotting and the scheming. She drew on the show, is friends with a guy, Black. I think they're friends with Benefits. And she drew said a few times that Kay Michelle knows Black. Kay Michelle took that as Drew insinuating that.

lori (08:28.489)
That's horrible. Good, good for her, good for her.

Kelli (08:56.812)
Maybe there was something between K. Michelle and Black and there wasn't.

Then Kay Michelle thinks that Portia was talking about an oyster last week because her ex boyfriend eight years ago said something about the way her vagina smelled. I mean, this is this is what we're arguing about on this show. Like you can't even make this shit up. Right. So Kay Michelle still talking about the plotting in this gaming. Phaedra, Angela, Portia and Drew go to eat. just so you know, last year.

lori (09:15.015)
Okay. You can't even make it up. Okay. Okay.

Kelli (09:30.062)
Phaedra wasn't even on the show until the end. Angela accused Phaedra of bringing up some bullshit about her husband, and Portia and Drew were at each other's throats. Now all of a sudden, these four, Phaedra, Angela, Portia, and Drew have an alliance, and I don't like it. No, it's not good, it's not good.

lori (09:47.713)
Which is never that's never good in the housewife.

Kelli (09:53.999)
Phaedra tells them that she went to pottery with Kay, Michelle and Kelly and Kay still thinks there's a scheme with Portia and Drew. Drew asks, where are the receipts? Now to me, when somebody says, where's your proof? To me, that screams guilt, like you're guilty, right?

lori (10:11.048)
Usually does, yes, usually does.

Kelli (10:12.354)
Right, if you're saying, show me the proof, show me the proof. And Portia's response is totally sus as well. Like, me? Who? Me?

And we get to another produced scene with Portia. Portia's the worst, always produced. If you ever see Portia and her sister and her mother in a scene together, it has been rehearsed to the umpteenth time. Portia has a surprise for her daughter Pilar and Lauren, her sister's daughter. And she's basically just telling them that she's between two people she's dating. She's dating this really, really good looking guy Mike. And then she's dating this

lori (10:38.176)
Uh-huh.

Kelli (10:55.98)
woman sway, so she's kind of going back and forth. She's dipping her foot in the lady pond, as Andy Cohen likes to say.

lori (11:02.303)
Okay. Okay. That's an interesting name, Sway.

Kelli (11:09.12)
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what her gig is. Like, I don't know if she's like an entertainer and that's just like her stage name or if that's her real name. I never looked into it.

lori (11:16.609)
Hm. Interesting now.

Kelli (11:19.417)
Mm-hmm.

So she tells Lauren, her sister, that Dennis showed up when Mike sent a mariachi band for her, but she's like, she was surprised. Dennis is dating someone, has a live-in girlfriend. Dennis doesn't care if Mike sent you a mariachi band.

lori (11:40.417)
Yeah, no.

Kelli (11:41.88)
Dennis has moved on, and if he's acting like he didn't, it's fake and phony.

Kelli (11:50.021)
Swae and Portia, she tells her that they went to another level and then she says with deep conversation. But I'm pretty sure when Portia goes to another level with somebody it's more than a deep conversation.

And then the guy takes the big ass snake out and then the big giant produced scene is over.

lori (12:11.223)
Yes, I saw that.

Yeah.

Kelli (12:17.166)
Shamia and Kelly meet up and Shamia is going to see her to the office that Hooks her up with the surrogate. So Shamia has two daughters with her with her husband and I I don't I don't know if they used a surrogate for Maybe her second daughter. They did use a surrogate I forget now because she's been on the show a couple of seasons and she was a friend of prior to that Like we've known Shamia for a long time

lori (12:47.501)
Mm-hmm.

Kelli (12:48.196)
They really want a boy. They have two daughters. They really want a boy and they have a male embryo, but They've tried a couple of transfers so far and they've been unsuccessful They've had five failed transfers and they only have one male embryo left. Yeah Yeah, so You know, it's it's understandable that she's crying and and yeah, like you said stressed out

lori (13:02.613)
That's a lot of stress. That's a lot of stress for a marriage.

lori (13:14.635)
Yeah, that's a lot of stress, man.

Kelli (13:17.122)
What I thought was interesting was, her husband does not like to film, he won't be on camera. Like you see, she basically tells the woman at the surrogate's office, she's like, I haven't seen Gerald, and she's like, he's not coming, he don't like these cameras. But they do flashbacks, and they show her asking him what he thought of the movie she did, and he said you weren't that good in it.

lori (13:45.462)
nice. Okay.

Kelli (13:46.66)
Yeah, and

lori (13:50.7)
But then she was saying that, you know, well Sonny doesn't want her to like be with an like being with another man on film bothered him, she said.

Kelli (14:00.77)
Yeah, so he's very successful. And if you saw her house, you would know it. They call it Moore Manor. Like it is, wait, was that Kenya Moore's house? No, Shamia Moore and Moore and something Moore and I forget Moore Manor was Kenya's house. But Shamia's house is really something. And he's in HVAC. And actually what's funny is he does HVAC in Rhode Island. They live in Atlanta.

lori (14:06.317)
Mm-hmm.

lori (14:28.183)
I remember you guys talking about this. Yeah, yeah.

Kelli (14:29.88)
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's very successful and I think maybe he's just the kind of guy that wants his lady home. You know? He makes a lot of money and that's enough because she also wants to do a rum collab. Like she wants her own bottle of rum and she wants the bottle shaped like her ass, because I don't know if you noticed, but she's got a great ass. And she wants the bottle shaped after that.

And he's not a huge fan of this idea, but I think she's going through with it. So, you know, basically the woman at the surrogate office basically says, you got one embryo left and we're going to manifest and we're going to stay positive that this transfer will be successful.

Kelli (15:19.618)
Then we see Kelly with her oldest daughter, Chloe. She is away at college, but she must have been home. And Kelly makes her sign a contract, basically. I did too. These are your responsibilities, and I want you to stay on a good track and stay away from the Adderall and the D, and the big swingin' D.

lori (15:27.901)
Thought that was cute.

That are scared.

lori (15:39.755)
Right. Mm-hmm.

Kelli (15:43.106)
and we'll be all set. Get that degree and then come home and go from there.

lori (15:49.686)
Right. Yeah, no, I thought that was I liked that. I thought it was you know, you gotta sometimes you gotta bring s shit like that up. Just you can't just assume that you know what I mean, everybody's on the same page. Sometimes you gotta be like, Hey, sign the dotted line, you know?

Kelli (16:06.916)
Well, especially like, you we know our kids and we knew, you know, neither of my kids went away to college when they graduated high school right away. They didn't at all. And there were good reasons for both of them to not very, very different reasons, but both very solid reasons. So if your kid is going away, you know, you have to be comfortable and know that they're ready to accept that responsibility because it's a huge responsibility. Like you're.

lori (16:21.131)
Right, right, right. Yeah.

lori (16:26.498)
Right.

lori (16:35.67)
Absolutely it is.

Kelli (16:36.484)
You're trusting the fact that they're going to do their work, go to class, be responsible, be accountable.

lori (16:41.687)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. And you usually drop in a pretty big dime. So it's not a time, you know, it's not a time for mess around. It's not a time like, let's go to the fret party. No. Once in a while, okay. But no, if I'm paying a lot of money for you to go somewhere, you go in there to do what you're supposed to do. So nothing wrong with that.

Kelli (16:49.89)
Right. Right.

Kelli (16:57.09)
Yeah. Right.

Kelli (17:08.728)
Right, absolutely. No. Yeah, it was. I love those scenes. And I love her daughter Chloe. When she's there, it seems very authentic when Kelly shoots scenes with her daughter.

lori (17:13.527)
But I thought it was a cute scene.

Kelli (17:29.54)
So then we see Portia out to dinner with Sway, and we learn that they've known each other for 10 years. We didn't know that already. By the way, Portia is still dating Sway now. So right here where she's at this fork in the road where she's trying to decide between Mike and Sway, she decided Sway. And they're still together as far as I know. Sway asks her if she can see herself being with someone for the rest of her life, and Portia's like, did you just propose?

lori (17:58.094)
Yeah.

Kelli (17:59.203)
which was pretty funny. But Portia's honest with her and tells her that there's someone else, Mike, but she's open to, you know.

being with Sway. And Sway basically says she'd like to be settled in a relationship within a year and she would like a kid. So that was kind of interesting because Portia's been leaning towards her because Mike really wants kids and Portia doesn't know if she wants any more. This is the best. Sway asks her if she has any baby daddy drama. Portia says no, but then they like roll tape and you know.

They show some scene where her and Dennis arguing, but it's all fake. She doesn't have baby daddy drama. It's all fake for the show. They're clearly, he's with another woman. He has a living girlfriend. He doesn't give a shit what you do anymore, Portia. Yeah, they both got money. There's no drama. She says no and then they try to make it seem like she does, but she doesn't.

lori (18:45.414)
that's fine.

lori (18:50.145)
What you're doing. Right, right, right.

Kelli (19:05.663)
so...

I'm trying to see what my Phaedra's hearing waters even. I don't know what I just typed there. Phaedra, go ahead.

lori (19:15.253)
I don't know what you wrote, girl. I don't know what you wrote. But wait, wait, wait. So when we get to the party, the sound bath party, right? Who is the girl who shows up with the whole net thing? I was like, Whoo, girl. I was like, Okay. Okay.

Kelli (19:25.945)
Yeah.

Kelli (19:31.118)
That's Porsche.

that and they show they flashback she wore something very similar somewhere else. mean, listen, she has got the body for that. And I don't know where else you would wear that. mean, I feel like Portia would wear that to the grocery store, quite honestly.

lori (19:44.839)
All all I thought was

lori (19:50.326)
Right. All I could think of was when they were sitting down to eat, like how painful that netting is on your ass to sit on. I was like,

Kelli (19:56.015)
They're netting. Well, if it gets tight, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

lori (20:01.625)
It's just sitting on it in general. Like, ooh. that's just my old white ass talking. Just seems painful. That's all.

Kelli (20:08.034)
Right. Right.

So, Phaedra tells us that she's a reeky master, but by the way, she's also a mortician and an attorney, if you didn't know.

lori (20:19.541)
Okay, well, dwell rounded woman.

Kelli (20:23.116)
She likes the almighty dollar phaedra and she, and I say that in a good way, like she hustles, she makes money, and she works hard.

lori (20:34.903)
Right.

Kelli (20:37.636)
lori (20:37.825)
Well, she's interested in taking care of you in this life and the afterlife. Whatever you need, you can pay her to do it. Right?

Kelli (20:42.5)
That's right. Right, exactly. Kay Michelle says she's not going in the water. So I guess they're all getting at this point going to Phaedra's party. Kay Michelle says.

lori (20:56.395)
Well now I couldn't figure this out. Why wasn't she going in the water? Where is the infection?

Kelli (21:01.622)
in her butt from butt injections. Bad botched butt injections. Yeah, she's got a bad infection. That was a whole part of the earlier, earlier part of the season. I loved when Phaedra says her meat is range free, not free range.

lori (21:23.457)
That's good.

Kelli (21:24.568)
Range free meat. Yeah, Portia's outfit demands attention, but whatever, dude, she's got the body, so let her, you know. Let her flaunt it. Phaedra now tells us that she's taken up the flute. I don't know when she sleeps, Phaedra, because she's a jack of all trades, and I'm sure master of some.

lori (21:42.049)
Yeah, really.

Kelli (21:50.468)
So K-Michelle and Pinky are driving together?

Kay Michelle did drive with Pinky and she tells her that she got a call from her ex. She's friends with her ex, Kay Michelle. This is her last public ex.

lori (22:06.059)
Yeah, I couldn't understand I couldn't understand I couldn't understand what she was talking about.

Kelli (22:10.198)
It gets a little confusing. He said that he's been talking to Portia.

lori (22:16.971)
Her ex boyfriend.

Kelli (22:17.56)
And then she says something about him not wearing shoes and putting his feet up on her island. So if he wants to go put his feet up on Portia's I don't know. But the bottom line is that her ex, her last public ex, told her that he had talked to Portia or he's been talking to Portia or something about Portia. And Kay Michelle's like, well, she didn't say anything to me. Which is interesting because Portia did, you know how when they bring a new housewife on, they have to

her to somebody. They tied Kay Michelle to Portia. So they're insinuating that Kay Michelle and Portia are friends. So if you were talking to your friend's ex, you'd probably bring it up,

lori (22:49.133)
Mm-hmm.

lori (22:59.915)
Yeah, if you're gonna be on a show with her, I would think that would be the intelligent thing to do.

Kelli (23:07.044)
So they're gonna do a sound bath and they're gonna meditate and they're gonna float in the water. Phaedra's Aiden. I would love to do that. I mean, as long as my float doesn't deflate like Shemeah. Pinky says, Pinky says this is different and it's giving cold energy. They already tried to kill Shemeah. I gotta keep my eyes open.

lori (23:12.556)
I'm liking it.

Like it, yeah.

lori (23:21.793)
Yeah, like she may have said.

Kelli (23:37.861)
So yeah, Shamiah's float deflates and then she's gotta go sit with Kelly and Kay Michelle. Kelly wasn't going in the water either, because she's got a lot going on on her mind. And now they move on to dinner and Kay Michelle wants to address everyone and she comes in peace, she says. She did have someone tell her that Portia, Phaedra and Drew were trying to gather information on her.

Portia says she was trying to be a friend to her, and then Kay Michelle brings up her first scene really, where Portia was accusing Kelly of sleeping with a married man. Then another scene, Kay Michelle was trying to tell them about what was going on with the infection, and Portia yelled miscarriage, as if she had a miscarriage. And then she was told in Dallas, which.

their trip to Dallas just ended last week that Portia was trying to expose her. So then Drew gets involved and basically tells Kay Michelle to stop saying Black's name, but she's the one that brought up Black and Kay Michelle to begin with. So I don't know what she's doing. And basically Drew and Kay start yelling at each other.

F***

lori (24:57.825)
Yeah, once I start yelling, like it just sounds like la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la like I can't even focus. I can't even focus on what they're possibly saying.

Kelli (25:02.413)
Well, that's the thing.

And maybe this is why we were told not to recap it, but they talk so fast. They are so good with their reads. They're cutting each other down. Like, I can't keep up. And I honestly, I don't like all the fighting. This season of Atlanta has been nothing but fighting. Beefs within the beefs.

Like these two were totally fine and now all of a sudden they're going at it. But the thing is with the Atlanta girls, normally, not with Kay and Drew, but they can forget it. Like Pinky and Angela two weeks ago, or maybe it was even last week, going at it and then they were fine. It was like done deal. But yet they talk so fast, they yell, it's just a lot. It's a lot to keep up with.

lori (25:57.536)
Yeah, I was like, Whoo, no idea.

Kelli (26:02.244)
So Drew and Kay start yelling at each other. Phaedra tries to calm it down. Kay says she wants to finish and she brings her ex talking to Portia and basically Portia says I wasn't talking to him at the same time you were. But that doesn't answer the question why she didn't tell Kay.

lori (26:22.667)
That doesn't I was gonna say, yeah, that doesn't answer the question.

Kelli (26:27.65)
Yeah, like if she's your friend, supposedly she's your friend, right? You brought her on the show. So, Portia wouldn't like it. If this was somebody else doing this to Portia, aw, she'd lose her ever-loving mind.

lori (26:40.162)
Right.

Kelli (26:43.362)
We'd be hearing about it all season. But the next part, Phaedra says, I think what we have established here, and Kelly says that Portia fucked every Nigerian in Atlanta. And then everybody pops off.

lori (26:58.741)
Cool.

Kelli (27:05.902)
So that's how this episode ended.

lori (27:10.285)
It's a lot. It's a lot going on there. It's a lot going on there.

Kelli (27:11.81)
Yeah, that was a lot.

Kelli (27:17.528)
Yeah, mean, again, this whole season, I just feel like there's been a lot of fighting and yeah, like they definitely say things and I'm like, what? Like, and I don't, you know, clock it right away, but it doesn't mean I shouldn't be listening to it.

lori (27:33.353)
and

We didn't know what a hoe bath was. And somebody told us so I I I am a hoe.

Kelli (27:39.596)
Right. We didn't know what a hob- I mean, I did. I do know what it, what they're saying. I just didn't know it was called a hoback.

lori (27:47.073)
Right. So I am a hoe.

lori (27:51.661)
'Cause I got a lot of hair and sometimes I do a little bidet w so okay.

Kelli (27:58.339)
Right. Right. So yeah, so we knew what it was. We just didn't know it was called that, but listen.

lori (27:59.8)
Bad.

lori (28:05.611)
There you go, now we know. I call it a birdbath. Birdbath, yeah.

Kelli (28:08.984)
Right, it's called, right, where we come from, it's a bird bath, yeah. Yep.

lori (28:15.371)
there we go. All right, so you'll have to see what goes on, Andalana, next time, 'cause I won't be watching. No. No. Not at all.

Kelli (28:20.428)
Yeah, did it pique your interest at all? Well, there's one old white lady that won't be watching Real Housewives. Listen, I stopped a few years ago. I stopped watching it. I couldn't take it anymore. And I'm pretty sure Portia was the reason. You know me. I'll stop watching the show if I don't like the person. You know, if it weren't for this podcast, you couldn't pay me to watch Real Housewives of New Jersey. I...

lori (28:29.057)
There you go.

Kelli (28:46.92)
don't think it's gonna do well, I think it's gonna flop, they're already saying that it's not great. They're already saying it. So if I have to suffer through it for one season, fine.

lori (28:53.613)
Mm-hmm.

lori (28:59.191)
See now how now you know how I feel for every single show.

Kelli (29:03.32)
I know, I know. But you should really check out, so I wasn't gonna watch Summer House because I can't stand Kyle Cook, and I still can't stand Kyle Cook, but I had to watch it with everything that's going on. But you should try In the City because I really thought that that was pretty good.

lori (29:21.301)
We'll see.

Kelli (29:21.772)
It's just like a fresher out, like they haven't started stabbing each other in the back yet.

lori (29:25.749)
In the back yet. Right. All right, so we'll see.

Kelli (29:27.938)
Yeah, yeah, so that's that. Yeah, thank you for watching and listening. Please like, subscribe, share, give us five star reviews, all the things, and we appreciate it. Thank you so much. Bye.

lori (29:47.767)
All right. Bye.

lori (29:55.629)
Okay, do we have to go out and go back in? No.
