Two Teas in a Pod with Teddy Meloncamps and Tamra Judge. Hi, guys, welcome to this week's Two Teas in a Pod with myself, Teddy Melon Cacamp and Tamra Judge. And we have a very special guest. Yes, we've got Gerdia Brera from Miami. And first off, we have to say we were blown away by how stunning you looked at your first reunion. How about all season long? Well, no, no, no, the reunion was actually the easiest outfit to pick out. It was super easy. I walked in, Sorry, my style is each other, and I'm like, let's do this. It was done. I was in and out, Oh, your your dress is beautiful. Well something that we went back and forth on what time did your reunion start? What time did you guys start filmed? Gosh, you're putting on the spot here. Um I want to say maybe m late morning, Like okay, so because we were like maybe it started later, because he gave you guys a shot and said it was it was before twelve for sure. Yeah. I think I figured it was because it's a long day. How long did you come in Miami? Would drink? He did, like water? I mean, you know, okay, and that was Larcen's. That was Acens request, and he's like, I'm going to make it a tradition now, so maybe the future reunions will have a shot in the beginning. O. Come on, we all drink in the green room or a dressing room prior to go, and maybe you should have and you'd still be on. I can't help me be there drink anything. And I was like, oh my god, fine, they level headed, don't drink three award and you know, I did good. But then at the end, I was like, just take a shot. Ready. We would drink, but I think that we would wait till lunch because too, because we would start early. Eight in the morning was day. I wonder if there was even sunrise yet it was, Yeah, it was early. I remember that. Yeah. Oh well, what was when you found out that you were gonna do Miami? Had you watched the prior seasons? I did? Actually, yeah, so I'm definitely a brother fan. I've watched, you know, mostly all franchises, um, and Miami was one of them. But then he faded out of course, so um, what I didn't do is watched back before I filmed, So I had watched it many years ago, and that was that. And then when they called, I wasn't like, oh, let me rewind and figure out who and what, you know, when they did, Yeah, you were probably better off not doing that because then I think you would judge the girls from the from years ago. How nervous were you just start? I mean, did you have any hesitation? Did your husband have any hesitation? I mean I just knew that it was kind of like inevitable that something with TV was gonna happen to me, just because there were other you know, opportunities before, but there were more even planning oriented, so they were more career oriented, and I just felt like they wanted to also get the personal So think Rachel's the type of show where she was salid, but then they also saw her in her home you know mode, and I just didn't feel comfortable with that that exposure because it was like both in your face and we weren't ready. I felt like, you know, So then when this came about a few years after the first couple opportunities, I was just kind of like, this is it, Like now it's a reverse, it's more personal. Girtie who happens to sprinkle some of her professionalism, but this past season was actually a lot of the girtie the planners. So next season, hopefully if I'm if I'm on and back, you'll get to see me in more of a social setting, like more full time than I was before. You know, have you guys not gotten pick up letters? Shut? I don't know. I guess I can't say just now, but I thought i'd get something out of you that you're new enough to stay. Um was it what you expected? Was there anything that kind of blindsided you know? Um? I think that I expected the overall slow of everything. It's just that, like you know, the waiting before you film, it's kind of like the back end the production. And he's kind of like, Okay, then bo, we're still waiting for this person and that person. Oh you're talking about hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait up and wait. Yeah, okay, yeah. My husband, my husband used to get so annoyed with that, like hurry up, hurry up, and then wait and set in your car for an hour. Bring my computer. I bring my computer now, and I have my phone and have my charger. So I set up a whole office inside and I'm just waiting and then end up on my door and like, okay, are you ready? And I'm like, wait, you need one second finishing up with Mr Schwartz, thank you, and just yeah, sorry, now you're gonna have to wait for me in a sense, you know. But he's talking how does your husband feel about the show, because he's very quiet, he's very um, kind of do your thing. I'm gonna sit back in your minds, have Eddie a lot like anything. I don't want to be in front of the camera. That's right, he's the right die. He's you like it. I freaking love it, and he's not. But but he'll support me. So for example, there's a scene where they say, okay, well we definitely want to see you in your home and just what do you guys do? So we called breakfast with the kids and so forth. He's not gonna shoy a. I don't want be on camera. There's nothing to hide. So he's just kind of like doing what he does, being him. And so some people are so funny. People are like, oh my god, he probably hates being around. I'm like, honey, they can screw off. Those people can screw off. But it's so funny. How people judge like a two second thing. And I'm like, yeah, he doesn't. He doesn't want to hear me talking about weddings, like that's not his thing, you know. So it's exciting when he matters about us or kids or whatever. But like if I'm just oh today I was there on the bone, he's like this, I think I can really I think of her husbands were like that. But I think the good thing is I think you can tell when a husband is checked out from their wife and when they're checked out from the show. And I thought that. I mean, I think you guys had a date and one time you maybe you like had to drink at the beginning, and then all of a sudden you saw him loosen up and you saw the love that you two have and real life, Like it's not like a real date to me. Now, you guys are definitely like a couple of goals. Like you look at certain certain couples on reality TV and you're like, oh no, oh no, they're not gonna make it. But the YouTube like you've been I love your story. You've been together since is it college or high school? High school? So never broke up, always together? Well, I mean I broke up with him. With him once he claimed it was bullshit, so like in my eyes, I was like, I broke up with you, and he's like, yeah, whatever, you're just taking a quote unquote break, But yeah, he's the exact person. Or he's my ying yang. We're yin yanging together like we're whatever I'm lacking, he has, whatever he's lacking I have, and he's We're just kind of like this level headed couple. We keep it very simple. It shows. It definitely shows you guys are definitely, like I said, a couple of goals. When it comes to I don't especially really you don't want to go to like why like why I started something that sat there? So I accept him. And the reason why I broke up with him is because I was like, you know, are you's so complacent? You think you have me already? You don't have me if you work work for me every day. I want broth. And then I realized, I'm like, I'm super happy. I know what to expect from him, and and I love him, So I'm like, I put all that aside, so if I need to go out somewhere, I'm not dragging him with him for him to be upset. I'm like, you stay here with the kids. I'll go out because I call me if you if you drink too much or you know, call or drive or whatever. He's very chill. I accept me from him for him, and he accepts me for me, and that's what works. We don't ever expect things from each other. How long have you guys been together? Six years? Married? Married? Maybe twenty years this on November? Congratulations? Yeah that is so that's pretty incredible. And and and housewife years of doubles. It's like I can't add up all three of my marriages. They don't add up that, right, so good? Um, of all the women, was there anybody that was completely different than you thought they were gonna be? Or was there someone that you clicked with that you didn't expect that you would there was? Was there any surprises? I honestly didn't even come in with any notions at all, To be honest, I just I may have expected some positive things from some people, and I maybe it may have gotten neutrality or just opposite from it maybe, you know, But um, other than that, I'm just like, you know, like like let me just see what happens, you know, It's all about energy. So when you walk into the room, you already can feel it. You can feel the good vibes versus the bad vibes, and so you just you know, stick your grounds and see what's gonna happen, you know. So, um, that's what I'm gonna say. Yeah, I definitely anything. So would you say that you had some not so great vibes with Adriana because you guys can see that the shady boots over there. Well, it's true, you could feel it. It's so crazy because you know, I came in and I didn't say anything at all from the beginning at all, and so there was like a repetition of like, you know, I've known Junior for nine years. You know, I've known a this girls what they knew, and I'm just gonna like, okay, okay, okay, I'm just asking for the cap are like relaxed. And so when then I picked up on the quote unquote like you know, angle of like you know, she wanted, she's she's protective and and I don't I don't bash her for it. That's okay, you know. But then then there's also the maturity level of it where it's kind of like it's okay, you have your thing over here, that person can have their things over there. People are people and they all mess the different ways. And it was just the opportunity that was missed because of the fact that she was pretty much cat blocking, you know what I mean, stuff like you want to y'all do that over there, Like I'm just gonna just stay in my lane if you know. So. Yeah, who would you say you're most closest to the season. It's funny because it rotates all the time, like immedially, I think the most constant, Like you know, from the beginning, we stay stay in touch with text maybe three times a week, maybe be sort of the first messages all the time. It's the high sweetie, Aye, you're doing I'm tired whatever. We're like such a couple in that in that sense. But I'm really close also with a Lexia of course, like I've put her wedding. Mary Saw and I probably take each other the most, like little jokes here and there. She is the funniest freaking person on earth. On Earth. We text each other all the time. Um, and who else Lisa? I love Lisa, but she's got a lot of things going so I just kind of let her do a thing and once in a while we'll catch up and whatever. Larsa and I actually are close as well. We text and talked maybe once a couple of weeks, you know, just touching bass um. Julia, I know she's busy right now, so having reached out to her because I knew she's like moving. And Adrianna, you know, she was really close to me right before the reunion and then you know, like I think that she was kind of like strategizing on like let me just be nice for now and then now I've never crickets crickets, so that was interesting to be like, Okay, do you think that you know, they played it up a little bit for the cameras, played which which like the relationship between Adriana and Julia. Oh no, no no, no, that was all real, seriously well meaning that was it's oh the girls. If the girls played it up for the camera, like their relationships, like the felt massage and all those types of things. You know what's so funny now that I actually think about the whole thing, It's like I came with my family. You saw the beginning of that episode. I literally walked in with my husband in my nine year old and I'm speaking, and then I'm thinking about what, like what if I would have just been like, hey, guys, my kid is here, Like what are you guys doing? Like do you want me to leave? Like like are you having a moment? I just didn't even he didn't register on me until after I saw the scene again, you know, and I'm like, that's actually really kind of strange that there was a whole thing happening there that I'm not too sure if it was really e g. But you know, that was interesting. So I I shouldn't let myself out, include my family out of here as a viewer, intimacy as a viewer, it's weird to watch. But you know, at that moment, the proposal I'm gonna called what's called the notebook the noble moment. It's where they kind of have this relation of like the proposed, the friend proposal or whatever that is. So the notebook, the rain scene, the rain, oh much rain? Yeah, so the drip drift. Yeah, so that was that was That's when that's when I swear to God. I was like, okay, I give it to them. There they have an energy to you know, together, that's not the common and it's a good friendship base that they have or whatever. So listen, if Martina freaking loves it, I adore that's just Martina, really love it. You've been around? Actually, do you think so? Yes? I think so. I think so. I don't see anything wrong with it. Just after I've seen the whole thing come full circle, I really think that they actually have a great friendship. What happens after or before whatever, I don't know, but I just feel that they do have a friendship. And Martina is approving that message. Okay, okay, I have to do one other I have. It's it's a burning question. It was one of the top she's asked when I did my Instagram questions for Gertie. Everybody wants to know what happened to Kiki. Why do we have confessionals from her that were never seen the same thing. On the day, well, the night before the reunion, I'm seeing everyone and I'm like, I texted Her'm like, hey, where are you? What happened? I don't see you? Oh? No? She you know, she was, she was, she stayed in Miami. I don't I don't know anything about it. I don't know anything about it and she is fearce. Honey, Okay, what was my friend? As you know so exactly. I don't know. I would love to see more of her. Everybody does, trust me, and you don't want to her. She's got a sadly personality. But the thing about it is that there was a lot of us in the room at once every scene. So I don't know if if production, I don't, I have no idea. I don't know. There's a lot that goes into production and the storytelling and all that, so who knows. She had good moments later on in the mid season. I felt like she had good scenes that in the Hampton's boxing whatever. So she has a funny, funny scenes. I mean, you know, I thought that was good. But she should have gotten more thing too. Yeah, we all agree on that, all right. Do you feel like your first season you were completely one percent who you are? Because I feel like we're talking to you now and I feel like you're more outgoing and more outspoken. And did you go in this season like a little scared, a little hesitation anything like, do you feel like you're being portrayed exactly who you are now? It was part of me, but it wasn't fully me only because remember my my storyline, so to speak, in a set of coming in, he's like, I'm party planner, gerty, you know, coming in. So you have to understand, first of all, I was wrong no matter what I did. If I had to tell her bad news and you guys got production, obviously, it's like you can't just meet up with the person, you know, like she's busy, I'm busy. We have a thing going on, So there was minimum opportunity to give her some of the news. Naturally, if it was a true client off screen, would I have called them at their engagement party like a bitch man? You felt that, of course, you like and we and viewers are like they literally see what you you show them like this, It is all unacceptable. She's a bad planner. How could she talks as the sleep over and like like give me a break? You know that in the right concept, it would have not happened that way. There's a question protocol to everything. We would like to schedule it zoom. We have some use for you. We do things property, you know, So in that incident, I couldn't have. So it was kind of like, Okay, everybody's together all right, I gotta tell her about that. I wanted to pull her aside. I didn't even bring up the whole conversation Mary Suals, the one like Gertie, I want to talk to you. I want to know what the Napkins are gonna know that. I'm like Bachman, donal venue. We had no venue, honey. So it's kind of like I had to break it down at the right time. But if if you see these things again, you'll notice that I'm never kind of like offering anything because I'm trying to find the perfect timing. But it just brought to my table and I had to just kind of like, you know, yeah, you gotta just kind of, you know, bite it. Tam gets a little worked up with Mary sALS Cup. It's something. I love it. I get so annoyed. I don't know what well. I am really sensitive to sound. And when she's I can't stand a listen to people eat or drink and she's like scratching, scratching, I can't even likes like, but you go nuts over that, and you gotta give it to her. I love I love everything that Marisa brought this season. She's kind of like the glue because she's like the narrators, the splash commentator for everything. I think it's cooled she gets it past because obviously I think the mother Elsa in her now is kind of like the okay she gets she gets to say that and be a little bit you know, shady. Um. But I think she'll be a housewife next That's what I was gonna say, if you guys were to guests, do you think that Adriana and Marissa will be holding next year? That's why I could be a housewife when you think about it anyway, I don't you know, so I'm a housewife by you know, titles through the show, but I'm working. I do all kinds of s in no housewife right now in me right now, I would say as somebody that's been on problem for what I rather for so many years. Um, your show definitely changed how housewives and friends are because even the friends that are on there participated as much as you guys, So it would definitely change things. Yeah, I think again, like I said, because in the beginning, I felt like that it was so new that they didn't want to box anybody in. It's kind of like, let's just invite into everything. See what happens. And then because I've heard that Adriana for example, didn't know her what she was gonna be until it was actually announced, so that that, yeah, that to me was actually scary for her. I'm like, wait, you did all that? And then it's like she got the news like oh and friends of it was surprising to her. So that was like, I think, good about how are you going to take it? But I wouldn't have wanted to feel like I was part of a show, an old g at at that end. The next thing, you know, it's like the friend of me, you know. So I don't think it's great news for her obviously, but I think she should be for sure a housewife. But like I agree or not. So that means the rumors were wrong because it was all over the web that she had chosen not to be a housewife because of her school. She was in some kind of school or whatever it was. I mean, I love what I'm like, it's all over the web. It's like Olliver Reddit, It's constantly good idea. I have to try to getting too ready because I'm not like I'm too I guess there's some good information that really Okay, Sorry, my mind. You could tell I don't know anything to be much, I don't know. Now I have a burning question and I'm trying to get to the bottom of this. Why are you guys on Peacock, which I love Peacock, but will you be on Bravo as well? Because it's sometimes you know, like the Ultimate Girls Trip, the first season was on Peacock, and then it's now going to be on Bravo. Okay, what what do you know? Why? But it's girls going on Bravo. Next time you're on it, two girls doing they're doing both. So they're doing fun Peacock and they're going to Bravo. Oh I I feel like some people don't have Peacock and they're missing out big time. But I think you just said that the girls should be is gonna be on Peacock and the right Peacock. Well, the first one was on Peacock, now it's on Bravo. Ours is on the second season is on Peacock, and then it is going over to Bravo. I think the same thing maybe the same thing for us as far as pattern. But Peacock is amazing because it's international there. I think so too. Everyone cares nobody cares about the views now on standard television, it's all a live dreaming streaming. Yeah. I I honestly thought, like, oh my gosh, there they are pushing them to Peacock to start out, because eventually I feel like all the Housewives shows will be on Peacock. But I'm still like, I want to know why I want you, but I don't know. But I kind of feel like it's a really big advantage. I've never in my life thought I was gonna give from someone from Tandonia, Nigeria, you know, Austria. That is so cool, really cool. I'm a global kind of you know, background person, so for me it feels right. But of course, the generality of it all as far as like you know, ratings and the exposure Brobo, it's where it's sat for sure. But I think he's gonna probably end up on brothero some at some point. I don't get into the particulars, you know, just kind of like focus on my my stick, you know, And and just switched gears to um to Kanye are Young team? Are you Team Adriana or Team Larsa Here I personally Larsa hold on, but I have a question if I mean, they're not saying anything. But I get that, not to want to have conversations about other people's husbands or ex husbands, I understand that. But what Adriana had heard or what she had seen, it's not necessarily a negative for most men that you heard that, Yeah, if he had a big penis I mean, I mean, my husband would love to hear that. On the fact that the fact that La was like okay, so that she was saying, okay, fine, next, Okay, I don't want to talk about it anymore. I agree with like making a scene. I would have been mortified. Yeah, I was sitting there. I don't friend that way. I don't. I'm sorry. I thought it was totally disrespectful. I felt like it was Adriana's way to get in and have like kind of poke at her about the Kardashians. I mean, Larce has taken the high road. Obviously they had a relationship that fell flat and she doesn't want to talk about it. I feel like she's a bigger person from the first from the first the first um episode, first you know side of Adriana, she's like, you know and her but but as big as the Indians can see from it, but it's already starting the shade, the shade. It's kind of like, where's that girl power? Where's that movie? Like I agree, I don't give a ship. Who had had my group job done? I mean, like you can hardly see because I didn't get I didn't go big enough. But the fact is that, like, who cares? I don't give a ship? Do you lie? Are you a great French? To me? That's what I care about. But half of the season just sitting there yapping, yepping about people's like but butts, and that's that's Adriana and Adriana all season. So it's kind of like move along, like there's there's a bigger issue out there. I promise you that Larsa did. She did her. She did a little throwback photo where she showed her original booty, and yes, I was like I take that. Listen, whether her booty is fake or real, that's her business. Who cares? Already? Okay, Like I'm over it. Tones Yeah, we all have had something done. You could have had to feel her done. I had, you know, my boobs not whatever it is. It's like it's something done. I want it all done. I want it all done. Now we saw you. We got to meet your dad, which is pretty exciting. How did he feel did he watch my my my family there in another dalaxty? You have no idea where from Europe? Like you know, we're the only in Europe. The parents, it looks go and whatever. They're like, they're not into this at all. They have no idea what's going on. But I don't even know if my father knew even what the show was. The documentary even always been filmed. He knew he was being filled, but he's like he wouldn't have any idea. Where do you even look for the show? Like my parents are very low key religious, just kind of like asked, I'm not do you want to come to the charity event? We're gonna have cameras? There is first show that I'm on. Oh, Bravo congaginations my daughter, that's all he kissed. Yeah, and Harper's Bizarre named you one of the top planners and and just and yes, thank you both incredible. Do you think that you will end up doing Nicole's wedding? No, No, we spoke about it already. I mean, you know what happened next season if we're both on it, I don't know what's gonna happen, but I just know that we both were like, listen, I love you, I want to sit and watch, I want to dance with you. I don't want to be a walkie talkie like you know, doing this is not our sation ship. We were friends first. So because the friends first, I want to keep a friend, you know, not not not not not at all. I always exactly, I feel like doing business with friends is a bad idea right now. I said this to her, like, listen, if we both go back on and we want to film together going through the process of her planning, and I'm just like a tag along, that's a whole different angle. But I'm not gonna do the whole like you know, professional hats thing anymore. I don't think I don't we know if you do plan it, it's gonna be amazing, thank you, or just gonna gratify that ship that even no matter why, by the way, so you need to get you're going to make sure and say gratify that ship. But the point of the matter is that, like I feel bad for the platter, was going to actually be the pletter because I'm gonna be like watching them like a hog, like, no, ma'am. Moment, we do first dance first, and then we do this rewind rewind, So that's gonna be fun. Actually, yeah, we'd love to do that. Don't think I'd be like, yeah, do you have any regrets from this season? Is there anything you change correct? Regret regret regrets? Yeah, I mean no, actually I don't. I don't. I think that all the cars play themselves the right way for me in a sense, um, you know again that whole thing with the planning, you know, like I was never gonna win. I was never gonna win because it was the time. It was never gonna be right enough for it to feel like I was actually doing the my process the way I do it, So it was always offset to look like, oh, the timing is wrong and this, you know. So that's what it is, and I'll take it. I don't care because I know my clients know they love watching me on the show. They're like, oh my god, this is such a feisty version of you, Like we're not used because and I'm like, you know, because I'm just kinda like partying in a drink while I'm trying to play your wedding. So it's a big mashup of a lot of stuff going on, which is not my normal self when I mean professional setting with my clients, you know, because the show helped your business. Well, remember I scaled my clients there and and you know before when call me, I kind of go through a process of deliberation to make sure it's a win win for both of us, is what I call it. So it has help for sure. Um, but I want to get the right call, not all the calls, That's what I'm saying, you know. So, um, yeah, there's a lot of bookings and I'm I'm limiting my three booking calendar big time because it's all about just big scale events, but not a lot of them, you know, so no more than ten maps. Good. Yeah, that's a good position to a pretty much. So of course you are. Of course. Let's guys, let's take a quick little break and then when we come back, we're going to do some fan questions and then unfortunately we have to let you go. Busy lady, all right, we'll be right back. I love it. Hi, this is Bethany Frankel, and you will not want to miss my new episode of Just Be with actor Justin law. He puts it all out there. He tells me about a near death experience where he was abducted. He talks about bouncing back after being in a film that got a zero percent on Rotten Tomatoes, and gives his take on why celebrities date other celebrities. Listen to just be on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcast or wherever to get your podcasts. We are back with Gertie, who has been such a treat at the time has flown by. Um. Now we go into the fan fan Instagram questions, and yes there was. There was actually a lot about Marisol. So Marisol, remember these did not come from us. We're not you know, we're just repeating. There's this fan question, fan questions. Um, Gertie, do you think Marisol is as much of a jerk as she seems to be on the show? Is Oh my gosh, she's the funny at cuted thing. Ever, Marysol is not a jerk. Now, now from her to Nicole, who they had their thing. If I were there, by the way I was working, Remember if if I was there, that that conversation would not have gone any further than her first line about what she heard about and he said she said, like, I don't put up with that stuff because it's like bring the receipts and be ready for like be ready to bring them or just don't even don't even get started with that. I heard. I know that's not gonna work. You know. Yeah, I would have definitely like shut that whole thing down. So my question in regards to that, watching it back, I felt like Nicole is just having conversations before she went on to the show, and that's what those conversations were. It's four months before. That's my point, like time stamping, It's like, why are we talking about what I thought before I knew the person with her and our now to me, I don't. I don't play the tic tac toe petty game. I don't. I can't. I can't. I don't have the energy for it. I would have shut it down, shut it down, and you could have a problem with me. That would have been that, but I would not. I feel like we're gonna get a totally different Girtie next season. I know I'm here for it. I was just absent too much, is what the problem was. It was a m for you. It's a one of the three big events and like I have to go. I can't say whatever, but girl, like if I was there, like, guys, how old are we? Let's let's let's go around the table and ask how old are we? I can't wait. So out of all the ladies. And again this is a fan question, who was the hardest to get to know? For sure? Really she is pretty private. Huh yeah, yeah, I remember the Larsa for sure. And now different, I think because we just came full circle with this whole experience from episode one through the reunion, So now we kind of all know what each other is about. And now I think the Energies are re organizing themselves and it's gonna be very interesting who's with who? You know? Clan wise and like, you know, yeah, it's gonna be something we were curious about. So when we were on our shows, we were never allowed to drive to these events because there was always drinking. But Larsen is always driving, So we're wondering does Larsa not not drink or what is happening In the beginning of the reunion, literally you see her finishing up her chat pains and large to drinks, but she wasn't a shot unfortune drink, so do you think she's a little self produced when she films? You know what do you mean, Like she's like, I'm not gonna drink, I'm not gonna do this, I'm gonna do that, or she like drinking to get I gets drunk, that she's able to drive herself somewhere have a glass of wine or whatever it is. I mean, you have a production doesn't allow that around here, Like if we are not I'm an be guys, I don't know what about to us Gertie tell us, We're like this, well, why is she driving? Gertie? Nobody listens, just tell us. But I literally have no idea what I've never even realize that that's interesting. You're right, she does drive herself, so maybe she just maybe they want to show her cars so they could potentially have her drive there and not drive home. Her cars are tibuless, you know what, She's got many of them. So let's let's just kind of like do a runaway show of the cards. So we kind of talked about this already, but a fan asked how stressful was it to plan Alexeia's wedding. I know you planned it, you went through it. It was like a rush course on trying to plan on TV and then it ultimately didn't happen. It was stressful, I mean, just getting the answers, and I had no idea she was going through what she was going through with Peter and Todd and Frankie. When I saw that scene at her house, I'm like, oh my god, I remember this outfit. Like I was asking her, we need this, we need that. I just can't even imagine. So she was going through a whole other thing, and production did a good job by making sure that was separate so that you had a skew of what my mission was versus what you know. It was very interesting. I had no idea, so when I saw it, I was kind of like fringing, like ship it's like coming, Like I was pushing her, like you want me to do this or not, like let's do this. You know, there's a lot of but I'm pushing her like what is going on? Is Peter walking you down? Or is it just Frankie or is he both? What's going on? And she's like, Gerty, I don't know, I'll get back to you. But the question, I'm like, not, who have matters? It had to have been a lot of pressure for you. You know, it was tough. It was tough, and the sympathy obviously was all for her for sure, but he made me look at it like a jerk, like, oh my god, you know so, and I'm fine to take it on, but it's just kind of like I didn't know. I didn't know the same. How is how is Peter towards you? He just sweet that I made him once made him? Yeah, many him once? I think on the show. Um, i've heard beauty bar, which they didn't film, but he's he's sweet. He was working there, he works, he's you know, helping out. Yeah. Um, And we only have time for one last question, but we want to know do you watch any other Housewives franchises? Are you solely Miami? No? I watched. I watched all of them, I think, except I didn't watch to be honest, that wasn't into it. But you know, clearly nobody was. Who's your all time favorite house life? If you could make somebody your best friend and obviously you can't choose us, which I know is really heartbreaking too. Oh my god, there's so many categories. But what for fashion, honey, Erica Jane all day for friendship. I mean, I'm not that I don't know. That's a hard question. Who is my favorite of all time? Anty to me like so witty, so sharply you can have a good time with her, I would putty for sure. Yes really, oh yes, yeah, business woman woman, that's my girl. Yeah, well that makes so you like the business girls. Yeah, but she's but she's fun. She's fun and funny. I like that a lot. She doesn't figure us up to seriously, So I actually Bethanie for me would be my number one. Yeah all right, Will you guys make sure that you follow Gertie on her Instagram? Where else should they find out information on you? Anything they want to know? Anything you want? Twitter? Facebook, Instagram is the same. Um you know domains is grtie design Genui r d Y. It's fine. Well, we can't wait to see you next season because we know you're going to be back, and I know you're gonna come in with your full power next season. Yeah, we're ready to see it. You're gonna show them who's bob that bitch bitch. If you don't want sure, I mean I want to show this as gurtified that bitch. You need it, girl, And if we go to Miami, which we might be doing a live podcast there. We all need to hang out with you Yea and Alexia and Nicole and Larsa. We love you, guys all love you back, love you. Thank you than taking the time. Grtie by, Oh god, she's lovely. I know, I really liked her. She is lovely. I feel like we saw a different side of Grtie today than we saw on the show. Like on the show, she's amazing, But I feel like the first season was kind of like, Okay, I'm new, I'm trying to find my boundaries, and now she's like outspoke well. I think it really makes a lot of sense when she said everything they filmed me do was business, and you're gonna act a certain way when you're when you're doing your business stuff. I know, I personally whenever they were like at the all in retreat or any of those types of things, like, I was like, I am not going to argue in the setting. The one that to read was late too, yes, which I was. To be clear, I was not upset about her being late. Sure you weren't. I wasn't. I was a little bits. That's the difference between real life and TV Life in real life to be like, yeah, whatever, girl, glad you're here. And then in real life, I mean, on TV life, you're all, what the hell were you getting glam done? True? Very true. I guess we have to wrap this episode, but we'll be back later on because we have to recap Miami finale. So much to talk about. Bravo, you're killing us. We're you know, we're doing all the things. All right, we'll be back by guys,

Two Teas in a Pod with Teddy Meloncamps and Tamra Judge. Hi, guys, welcome to this week's Two Teas in a Pod with myself, Teddy Melon Cacamp and Tamra Judge. And we have a very special guest. Yes, we've got Gerdia Brera from Miami. And first off, we have to say we were blown away by how stunning you looked at your first reunion. How about all season long? Well, no, no, no, the reunion was actually the easiest outfit to pick out. It was super easy. I walked in, Sorry, my style is each other, and I'm like, let's do this. It was done. I was in and out, Oh, your your dress is beautiful. Well something that we went back and forth on what time did your reunion start? What time did you guys start filmed? Gosh, you're putting on the spot here. Um I want to say maybe m late morning, Like okay, so because we were like maybe it started later, because he gave you guys a shot and said it was it was before twelve for sure. Yeah. I think I figured it was because it's a long day. How long did you come in Miami? Would drink? He did, like water? I mean, you know, okay, and that was Larcen's. That was Acens request, and he's like, I'm going to make it a tradition now, so maybe the future reunions will have a shot in the beginning. O. Come on, we all drink in the green room or a dressing room prior to go, and maybe you should have and you'd still be on. I can't help me be there drink anything. And I was like, oh my god, fine, they level headed, don't drink three award and you know, I did good. But then at the end, I was like, just take a shot. Ready. We would drink, but I think that we would wait till lunch because too, because we would start early. Eight in the morning was day. I wonder if there was even sunrise yet it was, Yeah, it was early. I remember that. Yeah. Oh well, what was when you found out that you were gonna do Miami? Had you watched the prior seasons? I did? Actually, yeah, so I'm definitely a brother fan. I've watched, you know, mostly all franchises, um, and Miami was one of them. But then he faded out of course, so um, what I didn't do is watched back before I filmed, So I had watched it many years ago, and that was that. And then when they called, I wasn't like, oh, let me rewind and figure out who and what, you know, when they did, Yeah, you were probably better off not doing that because then I think you would judge the girls from the from years ago. How nervous were you just start? I mean, did you have any hesitation? Did your husband have any hesitation? I mean I just knew that it was kind of like inevitable that something with TV was gonna happen to me, just because there were other you know, opportunities before, but there were more even planning oriented, so they were more career oriented, and I just felt like they wanted to also get the personal So think Rachel's the type of show where she was salid, but then they also saw her in her home you know mode, and I just didn't feel comfortable with that that exposure because it was like both in your face and we weren't ready. I felt like, you know, So then when this came about a few years after the first couple opportunities, I was just kind of like, this is it, Like now it's a reverse, it's more personal. Girtie who happens to sprinkle some of her professionalism, but this past season was actually a lot of the girtie the planners. So next season, hopefully if I'm if I'm on and back, you'll get to see me in more of a social setting, like more full time than I was before. You know, have you guys not gotten pick up letters? Shut? I don't know. I guess I can't say just now, but I thought i'd get something out of you that you're new enough to stay. Um was it what you expected? Was there anything that kind of blindsided you know? Um? I think that I expected the overall slow of everything. It's just that, like you know, the waiting before you film, it's kind of like the back end the production. And he's kind of like, Okay, then bo, we're still waiting for this person and that person. Oh you're talking about hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait up and wait. Yeah, okay, yeah. My husband, my husband used to get so annoyed with that, like hurry up, hurry up, and then wait and set in your car for an hour. Bring my computer. I bring my computer now, and I have my phone and have my charger. So I set up a whole office inside and I'm just waiting and then end up on my door and like, okay, are you ready? And I'm like, wait, you need one second finishing up with Mr Schwartz, thank you, and just yeah, sorry, now you're gonna have to wait for me in a sense, you know. But he's talking how does your husband feel about the show, because he's very quiet, he's very um, kind of do your thing. I'm gonna sit back in your minds, have Eddie a lot like anything. I don't want to be in front of the camera. That's right, he's the right die. He's you like it. I freaking love it, and he's not. But but he'll support me. So for example, there's a scene where they say, okay, well we definitely want to see you in your home and just what do you guys do? So we called breakfast with the kids and so forth. He's not gonna shoy a. I don't want be on camera. There's nothing to hide. So he's just kind of like doing what he does, being him. And so some people are so funny. People are like, oh my god, he probably hates being around. I'm like, honey, they can screw off. Those people can screw off. But it's so funny. How people judge like a two second thing. And I'm like, yeah, he doesn't. He doesn't want to hear me talking about weddings, like that's not his thing, you know. So it's exciting when he matters about us or kids or whatever. But like if I'm just oh today I was there on the bone, he's like this, I think I can really I think of her husbands were like that. But I think the good thing is I think you can tell when a husband is checked out from their wife and when they're checked out from the show. And I thought that. I mean, I think you guys had a date and one time you maybe you like had to drink at the beginning, and then all of a sudden you saw him loosen up and you saw the love that you two have and real life, Like it's not like a real date to me. Now, you guys are definitely like a couple of goals. Like you look at certain certain couples on reality TV and you're like, oh no, oh no, they're not gonna make it. But the YouTube like you've been I love your story. You've been together since is it college or high school? High school? So never broke up, always together? Well, I mean I broke up with him. With him once he claimed it was bullshit, so like in my eyes, I was like, I broke up with you, and he's like, yeah, whatever, you're just taking a quote unquote break, But yeah, he's the exact person. Or he's my ying yang. We're yin yanging together like we're whatever I'm lacking, he has, whatever he's lacking I have, and he's We're just kind of like this level headed couple. We keep it very simple. It shows. It definitely shows you guys are definitely, like I said, a couple of goals. When it comes to I don't especially really you don't want to go to like why like why I started something that sat there? So I accept him. And the reason why I broke up with him is because I was like, you know, are you's so complacent? You think you have me already? You don't have me if you work work for me every day. I want broth. And then I realized, I'm like, I'm super happy. I know what to expect from him, and and I love him, So I'm like, I put all that aside, so if I need to go out somewhere, I'm not dragging him with him for him to be upset. I'm like, you stay here with the kids. I'll go out because I call me if you if you drink too much or you know, call or drive or whatever. He's very chill. I accept me from him for him, and he accepts me for me, and that's what works. We don't ever expect things from each other. How long have you guys been together? Six years? Married? Married? Maybe twenty years this on November? Congratulations? Yeah that is so that's pretty incredible. And and and housewife years of doubles. It's like I can't add up all three of my marriages. They don't add up that, right, so good? Um, of all the women, was there anybody that was completely different than you thought they were gonna be? Or was there someone that you clicked with that you didn't expect that you would there was? Was there any surprises? I honestly didn't even come in with any notions at all, To be honest, I just I may have expected some positive things from some people, and I maybe it may have gotten neutrality or just opposite from it maybe, you know, But um, other than that, I'm just like, you know, like like let me just see what happens, you know, It's all about energy. So when you walk into the room, you already can feel it. You can feel the good vibes versus the bad vibes, and so you just you know, stick your grounds and see what's gonna happen, you know. So, um, that's what I'm gonna say. Yeah, I definitely anything. So would you say that you had some not so great vibes with Adriana because you guys can see that the shady boots over there. Well, it's true, you could feel it. It's so crazy because you know, I came in and I didn't say anything at all from the beginning at all, and so there was like a repetition of like, you know, I've known Junior for nine years. You know, I've known a this girls what they knew, and I'm just gonna like, okay, okay, okay, I'm just asking for the cap are like relaxed. And so when then I picked up on the quote unquote like you know, angle of like you know, she wanted, she's she's protective and and I don't I don't bash her for it. That's okay, you know. But then then there's also the maturity level of it where it's kind of like it's okay, you have your thing over here, that person can have their things over there. People are people and they all mess the different ways. And it was just the opportunity that was missed because of the fact that she was pretty much cat blocking, you know what I mean, stuff like you want to y'all do that over there, Like I'm just gonna just stay in my lane if you know. So. Yeah, who would you say you're most closest to the season. It's funny because it rotates all the time, like immedially, I think the most constant, Like you know, from the beginning, we stay stay in touch with text maybe three times a week, maybe be sort of the first messages all the time. It's the high sweetie, Aye, you're doing I'm tired whatever. We're like such a couple in that in that sense. But I'm really close also with a Lexia of course, like I've put her wedding. Mary Saw and I probably take each other the most, like little jokes here and there. She is the funniest freaking person on earth. On Earth. We text each other all the time. Um, and who else Lisa? I love Lisa, but she's got a lot of things going so I just kind of let her do a thing and once in a while we'll catch up and whatever. Larsa and I actually are close as well. We text and talked maybe once a couple of weeks, you know, just touching bass um. Julia, I know she's busy right now, so having reached out to her because I knew she's like moving. And Adrianna, you know, she was really close to me right before the reunion and then you know, like I think that she was kind of like strategizing on like let me just be nice for now and then now I've never crickets crickets, so that was interesting to be like, Okay, do you think that you know, they played it up a little bit for the cameras, played which which like the relationship between Adriana and Julia. Oh no, no no, no, that was all real, seriously well meaning that was it's oh the girls. If the girls played it up for the camera, like their relationships, like the felt massage and all those types of things. You know what's so funny now that I actually think about the whole thing, It's like I came with my family. You saw the beginning of that episode. I literally walked in with my husband in my nine year old and I'm speaking, and then I'm thinking about what, like what if I would have just been like, hey, guys, my kid is here, Like what are you guys doing? Like do you want me to leave? Like like are you having a moment? I just didn't even he didn't register on me until after I saw the scene again, you know, and I'm like, that's actually really kind of strange that there was a whole thing happening there that I'm not too sure if it was really e g. But you know, that was interesting. So I I shouldn't let myself out, include my family out of here as a viewer, intimacy as a viewer, it's weird to watch. But you know, at that moment, the proposal I'm gonna called what's called the notebook the noble moment. It's where they kind of have this relation of like the proposed, the friend proposal or whatever that is. So the notebook, the rain scene, the rain, oh much rain? Yeah, so the drip drift. Yeah, so that was that was That's when that's when I swear to God. I was like, okay, I give it to them. There they have an energy to you know, together, that's not the common and it's a good friendship base that they have or whatever. So listen, if Martina freaking loves it, I adore that's just Martina, really love it. You've been around? Actually, do you think so? Yes? I think so. I think so. I don't see anything wrong with it. Just after I've seen the whole thing come full circle, I really think that they actually have a great friendship. What happens after or before whatever, I don't know, but I just feel that they do have a friendship. And Martina is approving that message. Okay, okay, I have to do one other I have. It's it's a burning question. It was one of the top she's asked when I did my Instagram questions for Gertie. Everybody wants to know what happened to Kiki. Why do we have confessionals from her that were never seen the same thing. On the day, well, the night before the reunion, I'm seeing everyone and I'm like, I texted Her'm like, hey, where are you? What happened? I don't see you? Oh? No? She you know, she was, she was, she stayed in Miami. I don't I don't know anything about it. I don't know anything about it and she is fearce. Honey, Okay, what was my friend? As you know so exactly. I don't know. I would love to see more of her. Everybody does, trust me, and you don't want to her. She's got a sadly personality. But the thing about it is that there was a lot of us in the room at once every scene. So I don't know if if production, I don't, I have no idea. I don't know. There's a lot that goes into production and the storytelling and all that, so who knows. She had good moments later on in the mid season. I felt like she had good scenes that in the Hampton's boxing whatever. So she has a funny, funny scenes. I mean, you know, I thought that was good. But she should have gotten more thing too. Yeah, we all agree on that, all right. Do you feel like your first season you were completely one percent who you are? Because I feel like we're talking to you now and I feel like you're more outgoing and more outspoken. And did you go in this season like a little scared, a little hesitation anything like, do you feel like you're being portrayed exactly who you are now? It was part of me, but it wasn't fully me only because remember my my storyline, so to speak, in a set of coming in, he's like, I'm party planner, gerty, you know, coming in. So you have to understand, first of all, I was wrong no matter what I did. If I had to tell her bad news and you guys got production, obviously, it's like you can't just meet up with the person, you know, like she's busy, I'm busy. We have a thing going on, So there was minimum opportunity to give her some of the news. Naturally, if it was a true client off screen, would I have called them at their engagement party like a bitch man? You felt that, of course, you like and we and viewers are like they literally see what you you show them like this, It is all unacceptable. She's a bad planner. How could she talks as the sleep over and like like give me a break? You know that in the right concept, it would have not happened that way. There's a question protocol to everything. We would like to schedule it zoom. We have some use for you. We do things property, you know, So in that incident, I couldn't have. So it was kind of like, Okay, everybody's together all right, I gotta tell her about that. I wanted to pull her aside. I didn't even bring up the whole conversation Mary Suals, the one like Gertie, I want to talk to you. I want to know what the Napkins are gonna know that. I'm like Bachman, donal venue. We had no venue, honey. So it's kind of like I had to break it down at the right time. But if if you see these things again, you'll notice that I'm never kind of like offering anything because I'm trying to find the perfect timing. But it just brought to my table and I had to just kind of like, you know, yeah, you gotta just kind of, you know, bite it. Tam gets a little worked up with Mary sALS Cup. It's something. I love it. I get so annoyed. I don't know what well. I am really sensitive to sound. And when she's I can't stand a listen to people eat or drink and she's like scratching, scratching, I can't even likes like, but you go nuts over that, and you gotta give it to her. I love I love everything that Marisa brought this season. She's kind of like the glue because she's like the narrators, the splash commentator for everything. I think it's cooled she gets it past because obviously I think the mother Elsa in her now is kind of like the okay she gets she gets to say that and be a little bit you know, shady. Um. But I think she'll be a housewife next That's what I was gonna say, if you guys were to guests, do you think that Adriana and Marissa will be holding next year? That's why I could be a housewife when you think about it anyway, I don't you know, so I'm a housewife by you know, titles through the show, but I'm working. I do all kinds of s in no housewife right now in me right now, I would say as somebody that's been on problem for what I rather for so many years. Um, your show definitely changed how housewives and friends are because even the friends that are on there participated as much as you guys, So it would definitely change things. Yeah, I think again, like I said, because in the beginning, I felt like that it was so new that they didn't want to box anybody in. It's kind of like, let's just invite into everything. See what happens. And then because I've heard that Adriana for example, didn't know her what she was gonna be until it was actually announced, so that that, yeah, that to me was actually scary for her. I'm like, wait, you did all that? And then it's like she got the news like oh and friends of it was surprising to her. So that was like, I think, good about how are you going to take it? But I wouldn't have wanted to feel like I was part of a show, an old g at at that end. The next thing, you know, it's like the friend of me, you know. So I don't think it's great news for her obviously, but I think she should be for sure a housewife. But like I agree or not. So that means the rumors were wrong because it was all over the web that she had chosen not to be a housewife because of her school. She was in some kind of school or whatever it was. I mean, I love what I'm like, it's all over the web. It's like Olliver Reddit, It's constantly good idea. I have to try to getting too ready because I'm not like I'm too I guess there's some good information that really Okay, Sorry, my mind. You could tell I don't know anything to be much, I don't know. Now I have a burning question and I'm trying to get to the bottom of this. Why are you guys on Peacock, which I love Peacock, but will you be on Bravo as well? Because it's sometimes you know, like the Ultimate Girls Trip, the first season was on Peacock, and then it's now going to be on Bravo. Okay, what what do you know? Why? But it's girls going on Bravo. Next time you're on it, two girls doing they're doing both. So they're doing fun Peacock and they're going to Bravo. Oh I I feel like some people don't have Peacock and they're missing out big time. But I think you just said that the girls should be is gonna be on Peacock and the right Peacock. Well, the first one was on Peacock, now it's on Bravo. Ours is on the second season is on Peacock, and then it is going over to Bravo. I think the same thing maybe the same thing for us as far as pattern. But Peacock is amazing because it's international there. I think so too. Everyone cares nobody cares about the views now on standard television, it's all a live dreaming streaming. Yeah. I I honestly thought, like, oh my gosh, there they are pushing them to Peacock to start out, because eventually I feel like all the Housewives shows will be on Peacock. But I'm still like, I want to know why I want you, but I don't know. But I kind of feel like it's a really big advantage. I've never in my life thought I was gonna give from someone from Tandonia, Nigeria, you know, Austria. That is so cool, really cool. I'm a global kind of you know, background person, so for me it feels right. But of course, the generality of it all as far as like you know, ratings and the exposure Brobo, it's where it's sat for sure. But I think he's gonna probably end up on brothero some at some point. I don't get into the particulars, you know, just kind of like focus on my my stick, you know, And and just switched gears to um to Kanye are Young team? Are you Team Adriana or Team Larsa Here I personally Larsa hold on, but I have a question if I mean, they're not saying anything. But I get that, not to want to have conversations about other people's husbands or ex husbands, I understand that. But what Adriana had heard or what she had seen, it's not necessarily a negative for most men that you heard that, Yeah, if he had a big penis I mean, I mean, my husband would love to hear that. On the fact that the fact that La was like okay, so that she was saying, okay, fine, next, Okay, I don't want to talk about it anymore. I agree with like making a scene. I would have been mortified. Yeah, I was sitting there. I don't friend that way. I don't. I'm sorry. I thought it was totally disrespectful. I felt like it was Adriana's way to get in and have like kind of poke at her about the Kardashians. I mean, Larce has taken the high road. Obviously they had a relationship that fell flat and she doesn't want to talk about it. I feel like she's a bigger person from the first from the first the first um episode, first you know side of Adriana, she's like, you know and her but but as big as the Indians can see from it, but it's already starting the shade, the shade. It's kind of like, where's that girl power? Where's that movie? Like I agree, I don't give a ship. Who had had my group job done? I mean, like you can hardly see because I didn't get I didn't go big enough. But the fact is that, like, who cares? I don't give a ship? Do you lie? Are you a great French? To me? That's what I care about. But half of the season just sitting there yapping, yepping about people's like but butts, and that's that's Adriana and Adriana all season. So it's kind of like move along, like there's there's a bigger issue out there. I promise you that Larsa did. She did her. She did a little throwback photo where she showed her original booty, and yes, I was like I take that. Listen, whether her booty is fake or real, that's her business. Who cares? Already? Okay, Like I'm over it. Tones Yeah, we all have had something done. You could have had to feel her done. I had, you know, my boobs not whatever it is. It's like it's something done. I want it all done. I want it all done. Now we saw you. We got to meet your dad, which is pretty exciting. How did he feel did he watch my my my family there in another dalaxty? You have no idea where from Europe? Like you know, we're the only in Europe. The parents, it looks go and whatever. They're like, they're not into this at all. They have no idea what's going on. But I don't even know if my father knew even what the show was. The documentary even always been filmed. He knew he was being filled, but he's like he wouldn't have any idea. Where do you even look for the show? Like my parents are very low key religious, just kind of like asked, I'm not do you want to come to the charity event? We're gonna have cameras? There is first show that I'm on. Oh, Bravo congaginations my daughter, that's all he kissed. Yeah, and Harper's Bizarre named you one of the top planners and and just and yes, thank you both incredible. Do you think that you will end up doing Nicole's wedding? No, No, we spoke about it already. I mean, you know what happened next season if we're both on it, I don't know what's gonna happen, but I just know that we both were like, listen, I love you, I want to sit and watch, I want to dance with you. I don't want to be a walkie talkie like you know, doing this is not our sation ship. We were friends first. So because the friends first, I want to keep a friend, you know, not not not not not at all. I always exactly, I feel like doing business with friends is a bad idea right now. I said this to her, like, listen, if we both go back on and we want to film together going through the process of her planning, and I'm just like a tag along, that's a whole different angle. But I'm not gonna do the whole like you know, professional hats thing anymore. I don't think I don't we know if you do plan it, it's gonna be amazing, thank you, or just gonna gratify that ship that even no matter why, by the way, so you need to get you're going to make sure and say gratify that ship. But the point of the matter is that, like I feel bad for the platter, was going to actually be the pletter because I'm gonna be like watching them like a hog, like, no, ma'am. Moment, we do first dance first, and then we do this rewind rewind, So that's gonna be fun. Actually, yeah, we'd love to do that. Don't think I'd be like, yeah, do you have any regrets from this season? Is there anything you change correct? Regret regret regrets? Yeah, I mean no, actually I don't. I don't. I think that all the cars play themselves the right way for me in a sense, um, you know again that whole thing with the planning, you know, like I was never gonna win. I was never gonna win because it was the time. It was never gonna be right enough for it to feel like I was actually doing the my process the way I do it, So it was always offset to look like, oh, the timing is wrong and this, you know. So that's what it is, and I'll take it. I don't care because I know my clients know they love watching me on the show. They're like, oh my god, this is such a feisty version of you, Like we're not used because and I'm like, you know, because I'm just kinda like partying in a drink while I'm trying to play your wedding. So it's a big mashup of a lot of stuff going on, which is not my normal self when I mean professional setting with my clients, you know, because the show helped your business. Well, remember I scaled my clients there and and you know before when call me, I kind of go through a process of deliberation to make sure it's a win win for both of us, is what I call it. So it has help for sure. Um, but I want to get the right call, not all the calls, That's what I'm saying, you know. So, um, yeah, there's a lot of bookings and I'm I'm limiting my three booking calendar big time because it's all about just big scale events, but not a lot of them, you know, so no more than ten maps. Good. Yeah, that's a good position to a pretty much. So of course you are. Of course. Let's guys, let's take a quick little break and then when we come back, we're going to do some fan questions and then unfortunately we have to let you go. Busy lady, all right, we'll be right back. I love it. Hi, this is Bethany Frankel, and you will not want to miss my new episode of Just Be with actor Justin law. He puts it all out there. He tells me about a near death experience where he was abducted. He talks about bouncing back after being in a film that got a zero percent on Rotten Tomatoes, and gives his take on why celebrities date other celebrities. Listen to just be on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcast or wherever to get your podcasts. We are back with Gertie, who has been such a treat at the time has flown by. Um. Now we go into the fan fan Instagram questions, and yes there was. There was actually a lot about Marisol. So Marisol, remember these did not come from us. We're not you know, we're just repeating. There's this fan question, fan questions. Um, Gertie, do you think Marisol is as much of a jerk as she seems to be on the show? Is Oh my gosh, she's the funny at cuted thing. Ever, Marysol is not a jerk. Now, now from her to Nicole, who they had their thing. If I were there, by the way I was working, Remember if if I was there, that that conversation would not have gone any further than her first line about what she heard about and he said she said, like, I don't put up with that stuff because it's like bring the receipts and be ready for like be ready to bring them or just don't even don't even get started with that. I heard. I know that's not gonna work. You know. Yeah, I would have definitely like shut that whole thing down. So my question in regards to that, watching it back, I felt like Nicole is just having conversations before she went on to the show, and that's what those conversations were. It's four months before. That's my point, like time stamping, It's like, why are we talking about what I thought before I knew the person with her and our now to me, I don't. I don't play the tic tac toe petty game. I don't. I can't. I can't. I don't have the energy for it. I would have shut it down, shut it down, and you could have a problem with me. That would have been that, but I would not. I feel like we're gonna get a totally different Girtie next season. I know I'm here for it. I was just absent too much, is what the problem was. It was a m for you. It's a one of the three big events and like I have to go. I can't say whatever, but girl, like if I was there, like, guys, how old are we? Let's let's let's go around the table and ask how old are we? I can't wait. So out of all the ladies. And again this is a fan question, who was the hardest to get to know? For sure? Really she is pretty private. Huh yeah, yeah, I remember the Larsa for sure. And now different, I think because we just came full circle with this whole experience from episode one through the reunion, So now we kind of all know what each other is about. And now I think the Energies are re organizing themselves and it's gonna be very interesting who's with who? You know? Clan wise and like, you know, yeah, it's gonna be something we were curious about. So when we were on our shows, we were never allowed to drive to these events because there was always drinking. But Larsen is always driving, So we're wondering does Larsa not not drink or what is happening In the beginning of the reunion, literally you see her finishing up her chat pains and large to drinks, but she wasn't a shot unfortune drink, so do you think she's a little self produced when she films? You know what do you mean, Like she's like, I'm not gonna drink, I'm not gonna do this, I'm gonna do that, or she like drinking to get I gets drunk, that she's able to drive herself somewhere have a glass of wine or whatever it is. I mean, you have a production doesn't allow that around here, Like if we are not I'm an be guys, I don't know what about to us Gertie tell us, We're like this, well, why is she driving? Gertie? Nobody listens, just tell us. But I literally have no idea what I've never even realize that that's interesting. You're right, she does drive herself, so maybe she just maybe they want to show her cars so they could potentially have her drive there and not drive home. Her cars are tibuless, you know what, She's got many of them. So let's let's just kind of like do a runaway show of the cards. So we kind of talked about this already, but a fan asked how stressful was it to plan Alexeia's wedding. I know you planned it, you went through it. It was like a rush course on trying to plan on TV and then it ultimately didn't happen. It was stressful, I mean, just getting the answers, and I had no idea she was going through what she was going through with Peter and Todd and Frankie. When I saw that scene at her house, I'm like, oh my god, I remember this outfit. Like I was asking her, we need this, we need that. I just can't even imagine. So she was going through a whole other thing, and production did a good job by making sure that was separate so that you had a skew of what my mission was versus what you know. It was very interesting. I had no idea, so when I saw it, I was kind of like fringing, like ship it's like coming, Like I was pushing her, like you want me to do this or not, like let's do this. You know, there's a lot of but I'm pushing her like what is going on? Is Peter walking you down? Or is it just Frankie or is he both? What's going on? And she's like, Gerty, I don't know, I'll get back to you. But the question, I'm like, not, who have matters? It had to have been a lot of pressure for you. You know, it was tough. It was tough, and the sympathy obviously was all for her for sure, but he made me look at it like a jerk, like, oh my god, you know so, and I'm fine to take it on, but it's just kind of like I didn't know. I didn't know the same. How is how is Peter towards you? He just sweet that I made him once made him? Yeah, many him once? I think on the show. Um, i've heard beauty bar, which they didn't film, but he's he's sweet. He was working there, he works, he's you know, helping out. Yeah. Um, And we only have time for one last question, but we want to know do you watch any other Housewives franchises? Are you solely Miami? No? I watched. I watched all of them, I think, except I didn't watch to be honest, that wasn't into it. But you know, clearly nobody was. Who's your all time favorite house life? If you could make somebody your best friend and obviously you can't choose us, which I know is really heartbreaking too. Oh my god, there's so many categories. But what for fashion, honey, Erica Jane all day for friendship. I mean, I'm not that I don't know. That's a hard question. Who is my favorite of all time? Anty to me like so witty, so sharply you can have a good time with her, I would putty for sure. Yes really, oh yes, yeah, business woman woman, that's my girl. Yeah, well that makes so you like the business girls. Yeah, but she's but she's fun. She's fun and funny. I like that a lot. She doesn't figure us up to seriously, So I actually Bethanie for me would be my number one. Yeah all right, Will you guys make sure that you follow Gertie on her Instagram? Where else should they find out information on you? Anything they want to know? Anything you want? Twitter? Facebook, Instagram is the same. Um you know domains is grtie design Genui r d Y. It's fine. Well, we can't wait to see you next season because we know you're going to be back, and I know you're gonna come in with your full power next season. Yeah, we're ready to see it. You're gonna show them who's bob that bitch bitch. If you don't want sure, I mean I want to show this as gurtified that bitch. You need it, girl, And if we go to Miami, which we might be doing a live podcast there. We all need to hang out with you Yea and Alexia and Nicole and Larsa. We love you, guys all love you back, love you. Thank you than taking the time. Grtie by, Oh god, she's lovely. I know, I really liked her. She is lovely. I feel like we saw a different side of Grtie today than we saw on the show. Like on the show, she's amazing, But I feel like the first season was kind of like, Okay, I'm new, I'm trying to find my boundaries, and now she's like outspoke well. I think it really makes a lot of sense when she said everything they filmed me do was business, and you're gonna act a certain way when you're when you're doing your business stuff. I know, I personally whenever they were like at the all in retreat or any of those types of things, like, I was like, I am not going to argue in the setting. The one that to read was late too, yes, which I was. To be clear, I was not upset about her being late. Sure you weren't. I wasn't. I was a little bits. That's the difference between real life and TV Life in real life to be like, yeah, whatever, girl, glad you're here. And then in real life, I mean, on TV life, you're all, what the hell were you getting glam done? True? Very true. I guess we have to wrap this episode, but we'll be back later on because we have to recap Miami finale. So much to talk about. Bravo, you're killing us. We're you know, we're doing all the things. All right, we'll be back by guys,
