**Ben Mandelker** (0:21)
Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo. We just love to watch, and also the McBee dynasty, which is what is today.
I'm Ben Mandelker, and joining me, as usual, is the wonderful and hilarious Ronnie Karam. Ronnie, how are you?

**Ronnie Karam** (0:39)
Good, how's it going?

**Ben Mandelker** (0:42)
Everything's going well. I feel like something that we have not really mentioned lately, but we should, is that both of us are going to be in conversation with other people next week or so, because you are going on a boat ride of sorts, right, with Hannah and-

**Ronnie Karam** (1:02)
Yeah, I'm doing a dinner cruise with Hannah and Daisy from Below Deck in San Francisco on August 23rd with City Cruises, and you can get information on that in Lincoln bio at either Daisy or Hannah's Instagram. And that's fun, it's selling really well. It should be a really fun night. We've done one with Sheena and Zach and Hannah.
And that one was in San Diego. It was so much fun. Everybody just comes and has dinners and drinks, and then we do a little panel and party with people.

**Ben Mandelker** (1:35)
Yeah, it sounds like a great time. So if you're in the Bay Area, definitely go check that out. If you're in the Bay Area or back down, and if you are back down, if you're in the LA area that very same night, I too, I too shall be in conversation with someone. I will be in conversation with Martin Sorge, who won one of the great American baking show seasons. And I have been invited to have a conversation with him, courtesy of Now Serving, which is a local and wonderful cookbook shop here in LA. And so it's going to be Sunday, August 23rd, at 5 p.m. at Friends and Family in East Hollywood, which is a great, great bakery, coffee shop, et cetera. They just do such good things. So come join us. I think it'll be really fun. I'm going to be, he has a new cookbook out called Great Bakes. This is not a commercial. This is just making sure people are there.
So definitely go check that out. To find links to that event, I should put it up on my IG. I'll have it up later, but in the meantime, you just literally search for Martin Sorge, now serving Ben Mandelker. Look for Now Serving the Cookbook Shop, and then they'll have their events calendar on their website. But come join, we're gonna talk about baking, and that's super fun.

**Ronnie Karam** (2:56)
How wild, we're doing that the same night.

**Ben Mandelker** (2:58)
Yeah, isn't that funny how that worked out? Same exact night, so.

**Ronnie Karam** (3:02)
Yep.
Well, that's gonna be a good time, so we'll see you in both of those respective places. Okay, today is McBee Dynasty, almost the season finale, we're almost there. You know, I say on a lot of shows on Bravo that we cover, we don't need this long of a season. This isn't even that long, it's only episode nine. It's time to end it. When your whole episode is about taking a fucking pregnancy test, nobody is shocked that you're pregnant again, okay? Let alone you, why are you acting shocked? Nobody in the world is shocked that you're pregnant again. Congratulations, do it over there.
It doesn't need to be half an episode. You just had a baby, you're getting pregnant, is somebody gonna get married? Or is somebody else gonna get married? Is somebody else gonna get married? You all need to get some hobbies. There are just other things in life.

**Ben Mandelker** (3:55)
I don't even wanna know what their hobbies would be.
We already got a glimpse into it, which is inseminating cows. But they almost timed this perfectly because they had their baby on Friday, this past Friday. Their baby's name is Tate. So they got Tate and Blair. They're like, we don't want extra syllables.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:16)
This is gonna be one of the...

**Ronnie Karam** (4:18)
Well, they have a one syllable other baby, too. Blair.

**Ben Mandelker** (4:21)
Yeah, so I'm saying, like, what is Blair short for?
Blairsabeth? Blair Ella?

**Ronnie Karam** (4:28)
Blair Underwood.

**Ben Mandelker** (4:30)
Blair Underwood. Don't you dare.
No, that's a great Blair. Blair Underwood. Oh, the best.

**Ronnie Karam** (4:36)
Well, this part is pretty cute, too. You know?

**Ben Mandelker** (4:38)
Jury's out.

**Ronnie Karam** (4:38)
They have cute kids and stuff. It's just like, I don't know. It's like, do I need a notification every time another cookie comes out of the Take Cookie factory? No, they're popping out cookies all the time. It's not news. Like, we know whenever... When she said, I might be pregnant, I said, you are. What else is going on? Who is Galena gonna beat up today? That's all I care about. Okay.
