Watch What Crappens Well, hello, and welcome to Watch What Crappens.

**Ronnie Karam** (0:24)
I'm Ronnie.

**Ronnie Karam** (0:25)
That's Ben over there. Hello, Ben.

**Ben Mandelker** (0:28)
Hi, Ronnie. How's it going?

**Ronnie Karam** (0:30)
Good. What's going on with you over there?

**Ben Mandelker** (0:33)
Not much. Just, you know, it's Bagel Thursday. I had a beautiful bagel this morning. I'm happy to report. I went to Bagel Boss of Burbank, California.

**Ronnie Karam** (0:43)
And look at that.

**Ben Mandelker** (0:45)
Yeah, I had a delicious sesame bagel with veggie cream cheese and lox, and I am happy as a clam.

**Ronnie Karam** (0:52)
Well, you went over to The Valley to have some of that to celebrate The Vow. I love it.

**Ben Mandelker** (0:57)
Yeah, exactly. I actually have, it's shockingly, I've already been in The Valley this morning. I don't, it's a special day, indeed. I did not see any of our luminaries that were on this show, but you know, one can hope maybe next time.

**Ronnie Karam** (1:11)
Yeah. All right, everybody, we'll welcome, it is The Valley Reunion, part one, season three, episode 19 If you want this on video, as usual, you can get that on Patreon, patreon.com/watch what crappens. That's also where you get bonus episodes, ad-free listening, our newsletter.
Also, if you want these for free, a week later, you can see them for free on YouTube. That's where we put them. So they're up there a week later. Also, there's some new stuff coming to YouTube soon, starring Benjamin Mandelker, which we'll talk about later. But go join the YouTube, subscribe, subscribe to it, I guess I should say.
And that's it for that nonsense. Let's get on to some valor.

**Ben Mandelker** (1:55)
Other nonsense, some other other nonsense.
We're here at their reunion, so we see everyone coming up on stage and saying hello and everything. And Jesse is sitting at the end of the sofa and he's really pissed about it, which is great. He's like, but I came up with this clever idea to wear white sneakers with a suit, and now I don't get to show it off at the front of the sofa. What am I ever going to do?

**Ronnie Karam** (2:23)
Man, you are really pissed about those sneakers and the suit.

**Ben Mandelker** (2:27)
Actually, Jesse's look is really not the worst because it's like a t-shirt. And so like the sneaker, the t-shirt, like it's not a formal suit. And like he mentions, he sort of did it play on Andy Cohen's look, but looked really good on Andy.
But like again, I have recently been exposed to a lot of guys wearing suits with sneakers, and it has to stop because it's a stupid look. Like it was, there was like a moment when it was like clever like 10 to 15 years ago.
But like all these suburban dads basically wearing sneakers with their suits thinking they're being like really hip and cool. It's like, yeah, I'm a dad. But look, I'm edgy. To me, it's like almost the equivalent of walking in the house with a Guy Fieri cookbook. I don't know. It's just, I think I'm over it. I'm over this with the sneaker with the suit and like as like the wink wink of it all. It's like we're all, you guys are all winking. It's no longer like a clever funny thing anymore.

**Ronnie Karam** (3:32)
Yeah.
Well, you know, still they're there. They're still there and still those sneakers persist. So here's the thing.

**Ben Mandelker** (3:41)
I know we have a largely female audience.
And I know a lot of the women in our audience are probably saying, thank God you're saying it because I've been trying to tell my husband this or my boyfriend, like we went to a wedding and he wore a blue suit with a tie and a button down, but insisted on wearing some Chuck Taylors and it's like, I just want you to know, I feel you and I hear you. Like these guys, sometimes they get their own notions. And again, I'm not a fashion gay, but what I am is I am a sick of it gay and I've seen the thing happen too many times and I'm sick of it.

**Ronnie Karam** (4:18)
I'm an over it gay.

**Ben Mandelker** (4:20)
I'm sick of it. I'm sick of it because it's not like a fashion. It's just like a cute little rebellion, but like you're all rebelling.
So it's like not clever anymore to me. Yeah.

**Ronnie Karam** (4:34)
Well, Andy seems to really detest this cast and I love it. I like that he poor shames them. He's like, wow, welcome to the Valley. They've been to such exotic locations as San Diego, Mexico and Santa Clarita.
