00:00I love when people think, I mean, I always find hysterical that they think we have something

00:04to do about it, right?

00:06It's like some people think that we have this incredible, listen, call Andy, Andy's the

00:12only one that can make that happen.

00:14And I always say, I was at a meet and greet last night and someone asked, you know, they

00:17always ask the question, would you ever, I said, listen, I'm open to all opportunities.

00:21I loved my time on Bravo.

00:23I cried my eyes out when they let me go.

00:25I'm not going to lie.

00:26I'm not one of these people that made a statement that said, I've decided to take some, I'm

00:31like, I don't want to go.

00:33I am.

00:34I have a radio show every Tuesday on Radio Andy.

00:37And I'm one of the things I have to do is recap the week of shows.

00:40So and I do it very gingerly with New York because I feel both intrusive and protective.

00:47It's a weird thing, right?

00:48Because you know, it's something I was on, so I have to deal with it very gingerly.

00:54People love to do comparisons, you know, and make it negative.

00:58And I was just saying, listen, it's not like they chose one over the other.

01:02They decided to put, you know, get rid of one and start this new.

01:06And I say this with a kindness, but the crown was heavy.

01:10You know, the girls had a very strong legacy in this world and people are very sentimental

01:16and committed to them.

01:18But you know, I think it's great that they're giving it a go.

01:23We need to see what these young girls look like in New York.

01:26You know what?

01:27I don't know what a 36-year-old woman looks like in New York anymore.

01:30It's a very different way of running your life, raising your kids than when I was doing

01:34it.

01:35So I always say, give them a chance.

01:37If there's ever a world where we collide and something comes together, I'm sure that would

01:42be fun as well.

01:44But you know, let the gods, let the gods at Bravo decide.

01:50And we're here.

01:51A telephone call away, I guess.

01:53Doreen and I have known each other for quite a while now.

01:56You know, we've been an acquaintance for a long time because she and I have mutual friends

02:00back in New York.

02:01But I think the great thing about, for us, and I'm sure you can agree, Doreen, is that,

02:05you know, we have a lot of downtime because we're always traveling.

02:09You're always sitting in an airport, sitting in a car, waiting to go on an appearance,

02:13doing your confessionals.

02:14You know, so it's a great way without having to call and engage in that way, just to sneak

02:20away and just, you know, connect without overly connecting to, you know, kill time.

02:24And it's very relaxing.

02:26It is.

02:28It's therapeutic.

02:29It's connecting in a therapeutic way where it doesn't take a lot of energy.

02:34You don't have to, you know, have communication, texting calls, but yet you feel like you are,

02:41you're connected.

02:42And it is, it feels like there's, there's something very relaxing, very exciting.

02:48And it's a great way.

02:49Like Dorinda said, it's a great way to occupy yourself.

02:52You know, it's effortless and, and, you know, who doesn't like also getting your brain going,

02:58you know?
