Speaker 1: Sounds rugg Hello, Hello, Hello, beautiful and wonderful mixologists out there. It's your girl Money. You are in the mix with Money and you girl, y'all, it's us. It's just us here right now today. I haven't done this in years, literal years. It has been since probably the first couple of years of my podcast that I solo reported because I had that much to say. I don't always love talking to myself question mark, which is crazy because I do that around my house all the time and in my day and in my brain.
Speaker 1: But ultimately I just don't talking to y'all. And whether I have somebody who can come on or not, when the topics are just too hot, right, you just got to get in the mix. And sometimes it's just you. Sometimes you got to love your own company. It's a good thing. I love mine because we got a lot to talk about. This was an interesting time and high topics. I will say, it is also an interesting time in politics. Will I be getting into that for the sake of my piece. We all hold off, but there is I will say, a whole like report or thing Instagram posts.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna find it for y'all. It's going out and it's out and around there of people Bravo celebrities who are in the Epstein fives. Yikes, But that's important and people probably need to know about that. In which case I'm not gonna not talk about who I saw on this post. I'm not gonna confirm either, Like I'm not going to go look through it because I just am not ready to have a bad day and going through a bunch of founds of creto things. It's not gonna be something that is going to bring me joy.
Speaker 1: While I also educate America Ski, you know what I mean. So, but if y'all want to look into that, highly highly suggest you should know who you like. You should know who your faves are. Some pictures that I saw some people names on there that I saw. It wasn't looking good for some of our faves. I mean, yeah, you know you're Carol radzy Well and Laine Manswell were like bff. Right. You know that. We also know now via the House of the Dubai Reunion, that Caroline Stainsbury al so was in that world of Epstein.
Speaker 1: Probably she said she said she knew all of them were her words, direct quote, whatever the hell that means, You know. So there's that Bravo Bravo ducking, I believe is where you can be Epstein bravoes that if you if you want to know, you know, take with a grain of salt, do what you gotta do to protect you know, your mental health and your peace. However, you should know who you support. Don't be stupid, you know what I'm saying, Like one of people telling me that Steve Gold is in it, Like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Whitney from Southern charm. We knew that, Like you know people that you would be shocked at some people that you would probably not be shocked le a Black from Miami. Anyways, beyond there steamphiles, other great things are going on in the world. For instance, the Super Bowl has coming. You think we're here to talk about sports, we're not. But the mass that came with us sports is what we're here to talk about. And they supposed to the best fut bawl I've ever seen. That it had nothing to do with the game because apparently that was boring.
Speaker 1: People who watch sports and like that ball beings are on around on the field. They said it was boring. They turned it off. But I was on the internet I was looking around. I was trying to see who all was going to be there, you know, at this that Bunny concert. Oh and bahold. It was a lot of people I did not expect. People I did, people I did not. And then we're also going to talk about who showed their ads after this Super Bowl have to performance and why didn't you know Ravo has some people on payroll they showed they're at I mean we know that because we know that that's what they do, It's what we literally watched them to do.
Speaker 1: But this one might have been a minute. Let's discuss, okay, well Patriots persons to see how nobody cares Patriots lost. Okay, importantly though, on that Patriots team was one Stephan Days, which I have talked about before, how we thrust parts in our high school that we attended at the same time. He was not one of my very good judies. He was not kinder great to a lot of the girls who are still who I'm friends with or we're friends.
Speaker 2: With, they're still pun and after that man to stay, we're gonna tell them why they should probably let that go as maybe one party B did just.
Speaker 1: Last night or during the Super Bowl. Okay, there wasn't interview Cardi B gave for the Super Bowl that had people questioning if they were on the outs or the Rockies anyway, like party and stuff on a similar thing might have been disagreeing, having some arguments, not really not really, you know, doing the right thing, like not really talking to each other the best ways or understanding where each other was going, and you're like, oh, no, y'all just had a baby. You probably should get on that and do the right things and get some counselor no.
Speaker 1: She's also fresh out on a divorce from another toxic man that she had no business staying with longer than she did after all that embarrassing cheating things that he did publicly of her and looks like Stefar days was no exception hering ea child and neither was Cardi B. For him, he has not grown up since high school, cannot keep things inside of his bands, and he had one of his other newborn babies that I think this son, this baby is like baby a couple of weeks in between him this baby and Party Bee's baby.
Speaker 1: So yeah, he had two newborns that around the same time that other newborn and that newborn's mom we're also at the super Bowl last night of his invitation, decked out in Patriots gear, decked out a baby dig stuff. Okay, interesting choice if you ask me, But if you know Cardy's going to be there, third times for people wondering if Carty was there for him at all, or if he was if she was there, or the bad bony performance, because she was up there on that stage dancing Ji Raiden and she left early from the game, before the fourth quarter, before he even could solidify his loss, and boy did they lose.
Speaker 1: But before he could even nail his loss to the ground and really get it in there, she left. She said, maybe I don't want to be here. There are rumors that are allegedly his best friend pre or something also may or may not have allegedly had affairs with Cardi B's ex husband Offset and if that is true, or if there's any like fire to the smoke of them having any kind of inappropriate anything or nothing at all, either way, she was there. So Stefan invited quite a few ladies to the Super Bowl day last night that have various relations with him and none of which are his main girlfriend.
Speaker 1: And that we thought of Cardi B. And the mother of his child that he publicly had chosen to be his newest newborn child. But it doesn't mean that the Instagram wasn't you know, ablaze with other people in his life that were there that he like, just because other people were on Instagram and other people were, you know, posting. I mean the other baby mamas first baby's mother was there apparently in Stefanz the newest baby. That baby's mother was there, decked out in gigs at peril, decked out in Patriots here.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's just there was some interviews going on. Yeah that they looked they might have been fighting Cardian Saffan, but it was really something when oh you could see was all the other things going on because of this man and at the super Bowl that had nothing to do with her. I wish you would have realized maybe come had her come to moment a little bit earlier. But here we are, and she realized her worth. So she swiftly unfollowed that man. As of last night, unfollowed Stefan Daggs. She was only following him.
Speaker 1: She left the game early before he solidified his loss, and really like got in there was it the fights he was in so many fights. I mean, people who did want to watch the sports ball run around saw that stuff Ie was like unhite. She was in a lot of fights. He was, you know, throwing bows. Not at the center of every one of them like he started them all, but he was in them. And I'm just it's just not giving what you think it's giving, sir, It's not giving. We know that we have leveled up and that we should be doing something differently.
Speaker 1: Speaking of leveling up and doing something differently, Kim Kardashian being in those stands, Kim Kardashian being in those stands talking to f one auto racer race car driver Lewis I think Tomlinson or something. He looked good, She looked there. But my wife hated her bangs. If you know Tim, you know she occasionally likes to play around with a woman of a particular age, cosplaying as Chris Jenner rich bitch rich elder bitch status. And you know, I'm not mad at her. She seemed to be It seemed the billionaire first state style, did it not.
Speaker 1: They were talking, but it wasn't like she was super into him, but he seemed like he really wanted to be talking to her, but not that she wasn't into him, like they weren't there, but they were maybe getting to know each other. So either they were on a billionaire like the first couple of days at the super Bowl, or they happened to sit next to each other like they were placed next to each other, which I'm less inclined or excited to believe. So I'm going to think that maybe she's switching up a gang.
Speaker 1: She's leaving them rappers and those sports and athletes alone because they are impulsive and doing lots of things, not the same RASCAR drivers or not. I actually don't know, but I do know that good for her. I do know that when I saw it, I said, oh, good, well, miss Kimberly, good job. I'm not mad at that talk to somebody. I mean, especially at the same Super Bowl where your sister, your little sister, Kendall Jenner's commercial all about the different ex boyfriends she's had. They all that premiered or went on right before the Bad Bunny concert, which we will get to in a second.
Speaker 1: Because there were also some people there that I was like, huh, And some Bravo people have shown their ass behind the Bad Bunny concerts, aching though two Real Housewives alums really showed there, behind really showed there at recently on this Dude to the Bad Buddy performance. The problem, It's like it used to be back in the day. If you didn't like the person performing at the super Bowl, if you didn't know their music, you weren't vital with them, you just would skip it. You just wouldn't watch it.
Speaker 1: It's not like it was that big. It's been that big of a deal, I will say. I mean, I used to do that all the time when I didn't know someone who was an old person that I didn't care about. As a young person, younger still young two months out til thirty and the mentally I'm a young girl. It used to be that you would just skip it. You know. Since Sean Carter Beyonce Knowles, Carter's husband Jay Z took over doing like the Super Bowl or the Football, the NFL halftime shows in general, actually it has gotten better, I will give you that.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. His first one, I believe that he was in charge of producing and stuff was the j Lo Shakiro one and which Bad Bunny was there, And then since then we've gotten share, We've gotten doctor Dre and Nim and m and all the people that he brought up. Snoop, we've gotten a party there. We've had parties pretty much ever since we had Rihanna Kendrick Lamar. His super Bowl performance won in any or something like it was that good. So you gotta just let him, do You gotta let you know jay Z Cook what I think that the housewives don't know and other biggots the end in your life, maybe you should let them know this.
Speaker 1: NFL care about money, not making middle aged white women and white men happy. Solely, NFL cares about money. That Bunny being quite literally the biggest global artists in the world. Eighty five million like monthly Spotify listeners, eighty five million is more than people watching the super Bowl. How about that. They want someone who is going to bring viewers to this game, to this show that they spent a lot of money on that will recoup their investment. They want ratings to be above the shit ratings that were watching that actual sports game.
Speaker 1: I wasn't unentertained. So for Taylor Armstrong to ask were you entertained? Yes? How are you not? You had to want to not like the Super Bowl halftime performance if you watched it. Do I speak fluent in Spanish? No? Twelve percent. I say twenty five, but twelve percent likely with a fluency. Do I know all the bad Buddy songs? No? Do I know a good amount yet, because his music's flats whether I know what he's saying or not. And when I do know what he's saying, none times out of ten. Y'all just don't like what he's saying to you that that is why you had a problem.
Speaker 1: But Taylor Armstrong, she got in trouble talking adding the NFL talking about something. Y'all should be embarrassed to have the Cuban flag up there on an America Girl Football was a stolen title. Cuba was the only flag he recognized. He literally had like the entire diaspora of Caribbean, Afro Caribbean LATINX flags up there because he really wanted to like make everyone feel included and welcome. Shocker. Imagine that he wanted a lot of people to feel represented on his stage, which is also why he had that white woman on there.
Speaker 1: Stephanie Giamani aka Lady Gaga. I do love Lady Gaga. I do love Gaga. I love Gagle. I was confused while she was up there. That is true. However, when Jill Zarren, who though Taylor Msfruman not being employed by Bravo right now, Jill Zarren not either, but she just got a new job with the new show on a rival network on E with the Golden the Golden Era or whatever, talking about Kelly Ben Simone Luyne, Della Steps, Ramona Singer, Sonia Morgan. So some of the fan fae housewives of New York Girlies not all ogs.
Speaker 1: Sonya wasn't an og. Alex McCord is not a part of this show. She was an og. Bethany Frankel, regardless of how we feel about her, wasn't og. She's not part of this show. But this roney og adjacent asterisk show on E which is now no longer a part of NBC Universal apparently, so it actually is a rival show. Yeah, they just got picked up. Jill's Aaron's on there, and it's just giving the Jills. Aaron and Taylor Armstrong like have been so unemployed for so long they forgot that you can't just post whatever all the time because it's just your audience watching their consequences.
Speaker 1: So Jill asking the internet on a rant where all the white people were one is if they're not white LATINX people Christina Aguileras one, is it quin Stefani? Or am I making that up? I could be making it up, but I could have sworn when Stefani was also a white LATINX one. She might be itself. She might be something I may not know. I know that Christina Aguilera though exists, and I do know that. For you to ask where the white people were as if that was a precursor for Super Bowl, did you ask that last year when Kendrick Lamar did it?
Speaker 1: Or did you skip it because it was all blackie or something like? Jill, what Lady Gogall was right there center stage singing it. Stephanie Giamanni from Upper east Side, New York, who was an Italian was up there singing in English. Boom check, blonde hair, white face check check. Yeah, Like what that bunny. He's a fan, she's a fan. I'm a fan. But it's just like, what kind of question is that? You know what I'm saying, Especially if you watched it you realized that it was Lady Gogott right there, so you didn't need to ask a question of where the white people are at as if that is, who cares.
Speaker 1: When Stephanie started dancing a little bit stiff, I said, oh yeah, that's definitely lady got guy. I love her. But let me tell you if she could dance before it was, it looked real different. So all those beautiful, hip moving bodies, swirling dancers up there, they were geting it, giving us everything. Okay, so I don't know what Jill got going on, but whatever do She lost a lot of followers. People were like, hey, you're gonna lose a lot of followers, and she was like, I don't care. Okay, well you better hope you don't lose that job.
Speaker 1: I doubt it because we don't like to give repercussions to poorly acting white people like we really could should. I would say we used to, but we don't. Everybody's back on a TV of some sort, stocksy schroulders hosting shit poorly but hosting it. You know, So everybody got a job. Whatever, But Ji, you have a lot to lose. And Taylor, both you and your daughter, both you and Jill have daughters that are of this day and age. They're gen z Jean Alpha whatever. Young girls Kennedy and Ali who couldn't be like, no, in twenty twenty six, you couldn't just like take it to them and then let them be like, don't put that on the internet.
Speaker 1: Lol, same mom, but don't put it on the internet, you know, like just running through somebody before you just put it straight up on Instagram and tag the NFL and Apple Music sailor what do you think you are? Girl? But now we've said it. Anyways. In other news super Bowl related and then we'll move on to some secret loves and Mormon wives news. Alex Earl, Alex with a I former protege, a person, situation, former, all of that in what's his Name's life? In Alex Cooper's life, I'll call her daddy. No longer to friends, no longer together.
Speaker 1: She they have rival drinking companies, rival podcasts. Haven't parted together in like over a year whatever they fell out, Alex and Alex. Alex Earl did Dance with the Stars and Alex Earl was recently talked. It was recently rumored to be talking to Tom Rady at some function and it was giving flirty, it was giving vibes. So people wonder is that why Alex Earl went from Dancing with the Stars to be at the Super Bowl. And we know you get an okay job, but being on stage with Bad Bonnie and the Casita at the super Bowl, Nah, didn't make sense.
Speaker 1: But apparently Bad Bunny's business partner co owner of a restaurant that he has in Miami whose name is escaping me right now, but he was up there in Cassino because that is his guy. That is Bad Bunny's man. Hundred brands, okay, and they together own a restaurant and he himself is a business partner, is also a producer and makes money. Moves okay, he has big money. He does big things. And he is bringing to Netflix the Alex Earl documentary series aka reality show on Netflix about her her life, her podcasts, all the things that Alex Hooper probably kubash because she tested be the only popular blowed Alex on her own station.
Speaker 1: So maybe that's how Alex Earl got on here. That's my guest. Other than that, oh all Earl, she was making content all around the Super Bowl, Bad Bunny and everything. She had a grand old Tom standing next to Carol g and Cardi b and Pedro Pascal. Is she a moment? Is she having a moment? She brooks Nader of twenty twenty six. Let me not call on that girl. She's like a spirit. If you call on brooks Natter, she will appear with a new thing to try to get all of our attention and go viral. On the interde Tom Brady super Bowl something okay, But so it seemed like that was the reason why Alex Earle knows this man, and because he is investing in her show and everything.
Speaker 1: He also was like, you want to go to super Bowl with me? And she was there? Good for you. So there was a lot of people over there. John Ham mad Man has been off for a million years and Johnatham is still so important and culturally relevant. Then him dancing on the sides. I'll be in the Patriots Jersey put him dancing on the sidelines, said bad Buddy's concert performances amazing. Love that for him. He had a grand all time while he was there. He didn't leave early, Cardiby did. Should we remember that?
Speaker 1: Yikes, Glad you get a girl, But it's a little late, Leslie. Let's talk about some of these secret lives of these Mormon wives. Wait, you know Whitney apparently in Chicago now granted Whitney from Secret Lives being in Chicago as Roxy Art. If you know, if you look at the list of girlies who have played Roxy Art before Erica Ja, he's a rent or what she means your mama board majure. But if you look at some of these girlies before, you know, you don't need to sing. You just need to be able to move your body around, and Whitney proved really good at that.
Speaker 1: I saw Arianna in Chicago. I love Chicago, the movie and the broad play. I send it off Broadway, sing it on Broadway, sor Rihanna in it. She was amazing. You don't need to do much. The show is stolen by so many other people, primarily the band and the orchestras. Roxy is like not even the biggest steel but it's so still super cool that she's in it. From TikTok and whatnot and now the Hulu show. To hear this is awesome. All the momsap girlies were there. I'm talking TFP, Taylor, Franky, Paul, Layla will get to her in a second.
Speaker 1: Whitney, of course, Macy, Emma, Kayla and Mason, Mikayla and w what do you were making tiktoks alone? Together the three of them, I'm like, oh, I can style. I love the way they show up for each other to get the chat. I love them no matter what. They're like, Girl, we're gonna get this bad. We're gonna film this show. We're gonna do these seasons because we're all winning when we're here together, and then we'll make a TikTok because we were able to get through it. I think that's great. But Macey Michaela Miranda Jessee, even though she isn't loving the way her face is looking right now, though she goes live like every week and answers y'all's questions about her face and her plastic surgery that she doesn't love, but she went.
Speaker 1: Everybody was there making the TikTok, said Brun. She dances. What do you think the weight staff of the restaurants thinks when they just look around and see all these girls dancing about with each other. I wonder, I truly do. Yeah. I was very shocked to see all of them together, but I love when they do that. I'm not shocked actually, because when the season ends or starts or is filming. They love to be like, you'll see the fights on screen, but we're gonna get this chat. We're going to get the bag together.
Speaker 1: We all have kids to feed. I love that. Do you and men to surve ass professionally financially do it? Girls. It looks great. They had a great time. Love seeing Layla have a good time. Even though recently after that we also heard that she and Mason I think it's his name, the other brother chases other brother or chase his brother who she used to be with, who's Miranda's baby's father chased his brother. Mason and Layla were dating towards the end of last season and into this season. They filmed together for the season four that is out on currently coming out whatever, and guess the cameras must have went down, because girl, they are no longer together.
Speaker 1: No, they're done. I hate to see it. Happy for Layla that she can move on. She said there was no bad blood, or we thought there wasn't, but some things on the internet have led me to believe maybe not. It seems like maybe he left. He didn't probably need her anymore, and he wanted to keep going out and being and having a good time, because no, she's made a couple of tiktoks with some things that were hinting at there being some bad blood. But then it was rumored and put out that Mason and she's brother, Chase, we're out at a restaurant or lounge or something with another girl, with other girls and out having a time, and Mason mayo may or may not have allegedly gone with this young lady, not Leila post breakup, but still post recent breakup.
Speaker 1: It was like a week ago if that they went to a bathroom and worked gone for a while. So she said, LMAO. So I guess she's over it, but I'm sure we will have a lot more to know learn. And here I'm curious what Miranda has to say, because you know, they spent some to the holidays together because they were dating, or because Miranda is the mother of a child that Chase has with her and you know she's going to spend it together co parenting all that. And Layla spending it with Mason because they were dating at the time.
Speaker 1: I thought that was little early, but hey, they thought they were ready, they were ready. Turns out he's not. So back to spare one for my girl lace. Okay, but she looks good. You know, she's black now, she has great hair, she has good body like. She's doing her things, she's making money, she has her show, you know, and you know who, I didn't see me. They're saying she left mid season and she won't be returning for the next So I think we're gonna have a good time, y'all. Y'all, I think we're gonna have a good time.
Speaker 1: I had a good time literally, just bringing y'all some hot topics, some new, some fresh things. You know, lots to look at Bravo gurlies. To be a Bravo fans, to know that they will be at least one moment you're disappointed a day a week, but maybe a day a day or so this time. I've never seen it for Jill and Taylor Armstrong like that. But you know, every once in a while, we have to remind ourselves that we like some problematic people, especially on Bravo. Bravo loves to employ problematic people.
Speaker 1: I mean, hell Derinda apparently was awful in the Trader's Castle. Not very tolerant, I will say, though some people have used the word for racist or microaggressive Macro aggressive and she was DJ and the super Bowl party for Bravo this past weekend with all the gurly or for Peacock, really for all the gurlies. I mean Derenda not married as Marx, Derenda in a cardigan, in a shiny dress, but in a cardigan like a duster, like a long one was DJing the super Bowl party. Why, but there you go. You know, so some things we roll our eyes on.
Speaker 1: Other times we got to call them out and say, Taylor, Jill, get off the internet. Videos and things have since been deleted, but we still we saw it, and we have words for you, and we will not forget. So I can't even tell you how weird it was to come back and do some gossip sash some hot tops with y'all. It has been so long since I've done this by myself. Thank you guys so much for listening. Thank you so much for being here. If you liked it, want some more, maybe once a month. Maybe more people did ask for this, But like they don't need you to wait until you find somebody who will record with you.
Speaker 1: We need you to just get on there because sometimes their energy doesn't match yours. Anyway. Hill rude, but I love it that y'all give that to me and tell me that upright, up front and outright. If you're loving it, give me a five star review. Five stars are really helpful, helps other people find what you find exciting, olgrithms and shit. If you don't like it, go get five started for someone you do like. Because I'm guessing I'm staying at the eight ratings and not anything more because y'all don't all love it in which pace you're just trying to do the nice thing, which I appreciate, So keep doing that.
Speaker 1: Never mind, we'll make it when we get there. But if you are enjoying it, go ahead and lets the people know by writing a little review or just giving a five star rating. That would really appreciate it. Listen to me on All the Things Mixes, thanks for being here, Thanks for sticking around. I'm MONI, you're you, and you're the best. I love you. Follow me on All the Things at Mixing with Money at my x I N G W I T H N A n I, and take care of yourselves and subscribe to the Mix with Money on all your podcast platforms that you listen to all the other girls more to come.
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna talk to somebody else this week, but right now I just had to hop on here and talk to y'all. Can do a little gossip sash okay, thanks for gossipping with me. Guys, have a good week. Buys,
