I'm Ronnie and that's Ben. Who's hydrating over there?

Ben Mandelker (0:28)

I'm hydrating, look at that.

Ronnie Karam (0:30)

Trying to sell us a coffee or what?

Ben Mandelker (0:32)

You know, this is an unsponsored promotion of blue bottle coffee and their ice nola.

One of my favorite coffee drinks on the planet. Here it is. Well, there you go. They're not paying for this. Well, welcome to I'm just endorsing it.

Watch What Crappens.

Today is Salt Lake City Day, and we're back on tour, so come see us. Next week, we're going to be in Minneapolis and Detroit, which we're really excited about. Love both those places. Also, before the end of the year, we're going to be in Philly, Washington, DC, Dallas, Austin and Houston, Nashville, Clearwater, Fort Lauderdale, and that's for the year. And then after that, in the new year, we're going to be in San Fran, Salt Lake City, Denver, Charleston, Atlanta, Seattle, Vancouver, Portland, Toronto, Boston. And then we end with the Golden Crappies in New York City on February 25th. So get your tickets over at watchwhatcrappens.com.

Ben Mandelker (1:35)

Just had a great realization, which is that we're going to Detroit next week, which means Detroit pizza.

I love Detroit pizza. I can't wait. I'm so excited. I just realized. I mean, I know you can get Detroit pizza out of Detroit, but it's particularly good in Detroit. So getting excited for that.

Ronnie Karam (1:53)

We get it every time.

Ben Mandelker (1:55)

Every time. Every time I get it.

Maybe I should switch it up and get a different sort of Detroit specialty, but that Detroit pizza is so good.

Ronnie Karam (2:02)

They make up their own cheese. You have to get it.

Ben Mandelker (2:05)

I know. It's so, so good. I mean, actually, technically, I did have Detroit style pizza at Pizza Mama when I was there last month.

So, you know, that was very special.

Ronnie Karam (2:15)

Detroit style is different than Detroit in Detroit.

Ben Mandelker (2:19)

That's right. Can I say something else about Pizza Mama? I took a takeout menu and I was like, this will be a great keepsake, a little souvenir from Pizza Mama, this little menu. And then it was in my bag through all my little adventures across Europe, but it got all sort of cramped and it got messed up.

And I was like, I should throw this out. And every time I felt like I was going to throw it out, something told me, don't throw it out, because Pizza Mama will inevitably go out of business. And then I'll be able to say, look, I have a piece of Pizza Mama that like, you know, like how many people wish they still had their little sales tags from Kyle by Aileen too, you know? These places don't last forever and they are part of Bravo lore. So I have kept my tattered Pizza Mama menu and I think I'm actually going to frame it. Is that excessive?

Ronnie Karam (3:07)

No, go for it. I mean, listen, you're a Bravo fan. That's what we do. That's like when people went to Tom Girardi's sale, like Ryan Bailey went to Tom Girardi's estate sale. Well, he's not dead, but you know what I mean. His bankruptcy sale or whatever they were doing.

And he bought all sorts of shit, you know, and he still talks about it. He's like, oh, I got this from the Tom Girardi sale. What do you think of that?

Ben Mandelker (3:33)

Didn't he get some, like, didn't he like buy back one of Erika's things that she, like, wasn't he trying to get in touch with Erika to be like, hey, I got your things that Tom was selling. Like I saved them. Wasn't he trying to, wasn't the right thing to do?

Ronnie Karam (3:47)

Oh no, I don't know. I hope not.

Ben Mandelker (3:49)

Or is that just like, I mean, I don't know.

Who knows? I just, I don't remember.

Ronnie Karam (3:53)

I got your stuff. Hey, I got some stuff from the bankruptcy sale.

Want it?

Ben Mandelker (3:59)

I think he was trying to get it back to her. Like, hey, Tom was trying to sell this precious thing of yours and I got it and I'm gonna give it back to you.

Now, this could also be a complete fabrication. I mean, what do I know? I'm just a man on the internet drinking a delicious coffee drink, but-
