00:00Done having to work with Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:03It's Watch It Up and It's Live with Kyle Richards and Congressman Robert Garcia now.
00:17Hey everybody, welcome to Watch It Up and It's Live.
00:19I am your host Andy Cohen in the Bravo Clubhouse on Beverly Hills.
00:23Premier night at 15 seasons.
00:25My first guest holds the record for the longest consecutive run as a real housewife in Bravo history.
00:32Please welcome our friend, Kyle Richards.
00:38My next guest holds an equally prestigious title to Kyle's United States Congressman
00:51from the 42nd District of the Great State of California.
00:55Please welcome Bravo Superfan Representative Robert Garcia.
00:58Hi, Representative.
01:00Great to see you.
01:02Well, let's get right to the headlines.
01:05What was your impression of Rachel Zoe's first episode back to Bravo?
01:10Amazing, actually.
01:11I mean, I remember obviously watching Rachel as a Bravo fan just when she had her own show
01:15to see her actually interact with all of you.
01:17And I'm excited about the trips, about the summer, about the experiences.
01:21I think she'll be great.
01:22I'm excited.
01:23I'm excited.
01:24I'm excited for you two also in the relationship.
01:26What was your reaction when she said someone tried to set her up with Mo?
01:31You're too old for him.
01:33But that's not a slight on her.
01:34It's a slight on Mo.
01:35Oh, right.
01:37To be very clear.
01:38By the way, what's your reaction to all of Mo's photo shoots he's been doing?
01:43Well, I mean, he sent them to the family chat.
01:46And I said, oh, you know, I thought he wanted one.
01:48So I said, this is the one that I think feels the safest.
01:50I didn't know they were all going to be used.
01:52Right.
01:52I don't know how I feel about that, this new modeling gig.
01:57Do you buy it when Sutton says she has no clue why Garcelle iced her out?
02:03I do.
02:04Okay.
02:04I actually do.
02:05I think all of us are kind of confused.
02:08Yes.
02:08I think you were confused that day.
02:10At the beginning, yes.
02:11You probably had private conversations with her after, which we were not able to do because
02:14she doesn't speak to us.
02:15Okay.
02:16I mean, I tried to reach after her.
02:19And, yeah, I don't know.
02:20I really was excited to be coming close with her.
02:23And I don't know what happened.
02:24Well, with all due to the Gettysburg Address or FDR saying the only thing we have to fear
02:30is fear itself.
02:31And even more seismic political address shook our nation in January 2024, when my guest went
02:38viral for quoting Heather Gay in a congressional hearing watch.
02:43And what do we have as Democrats?
02:44We have receipts, proof, a timeline, screenshots.
02:49We have everything we need.
02:53Unbelievable.
02:54We love that.
02:55We love it that you did it.
02:57Over at the bar, Kyle brought one of her dearest friends.
03:01These two are true ride or dies like Sutton and Garcelle.
03:04Oops.
03:05I mean, Sutton and Avi.
03:06Oh, no.
03:07That doesn't work either.
03:08Anyway, please welcome Justin Sylvester from Reality Hot Seat, airing live this Sunday at
03:148 on Peacock.
03:16Justin, when are they going to give you the Jenna co-hosting job?
03:19I see it in your future.
03:20Me too.
03:21Could you call somebody there and find out?
03:22I'm going to.
03:23I know you know people.
03:24You're so good on the show.
03:26You're so good.
03:27I really appreciate it.
03:28And I'm very excited to see you on Reality Hot Seat on Peacock this weekend.
03:33Drinking Gable.
03:34And by the way, give it up to the man.
03:35He started on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as the, quote, lady sitter.
03:40He was Kyle's pal.
03:41Aren't you proud of him?
03:42I am so proud of him.
03:43You have no idea.
03:44Yes.
03:44I love him so much.
03:45And he actually surprised me tonight and told me he wasn't here.
03:48So it made my night.
03:49All right.
03:50Drinking Gable Alert.
03:51My guests won't know it.
03:52But anytime you hear anyone say this word, if you're 21 or over, drink it till you're the
03:56Capitol Hotunda at Kyle's summer party, Kathy had everyone, everyone's flower crown in a twist
04:04when she unexpectedly and without warning pulled a full pair of jeans out of her purse.
04:09And since I know the congressman takes his takes will be a perfect fit for Beverly Hills
04:15premiere night, it is time for Bravo.
04:17No, they didn't.
04:19What do you think happened between Sutton and Avi?
04:23Well, we haven't found out yet.
04:24I mean, I think that first of all, Avi was great.
04:26They have a great relationship.
04:27He did so much for her.
04:28I think it'll be interesting to see how Sutton develops over the season because there's
04:32a lot.
04:32She seems like she's hiding.
04:33Okay.
04:34Oh.
04:34When you first saw Dorit and Boze hit it off last season, did you expect their friendship
04:39to go the distance as it has?
04:42Didn't expect it, but I love Boze.
04:43And so I think that that personality larger than life, I feel like I'm also excited to see
04:48how that friendship develops.
04:49But it seems genuine.
04:50Thoughts on the season trailer to come and the tensions we see brewing between Kyle,
04:56Erica, and Doreen.
04:57I love it.
04:58The trailer, I mean, look, we watch also for the friendships and the drama.
05:03And I think that the trips look exciting.
05:05You guys are going to some exciting places.
05:07And I think that that tension will be good to watch.
05:09I love a politician answering these questions.
05:14Yeah, exactly.
05:15I mean, it is so fun.
05:17It's making me die.
05:18I can learn some things from you.
05:19By the way, Congressman, have you read the Epstein Files?
05:22I have read enough and know that there's a lot more coming.
05:25So, absolutely.
05:26It's just us.
05:27Tell us.
05:27Yeah, right.
05:29As a U.S. congressman, what did you think of Bronwyn's ode to the founding fathers in
05:34her spill, the Boston Tea Party?
05:36I mean, it was fun.
05:37I mean, look, I think, obviously, the Constitution duress was interesting.
05:42I think that they're still obviously obsessed about what happened on the damn plane.
05:47Yes.
05:47And so they continue, I mean, to continue to talk about the plane incident.
05:50I think the Oversight Committee should investigate what happened on the freaking plane.
05:54Absolutely.
05:56What do you think happened on the plane?
05:58Well, I think we should definitely subpoena Lisa and find out exactly what happened.
06:02Yes.
06:02And the rest of the women.
06:04But look, I mean, obviously, someone's not being truthful.
06:07Yes.
06:07And I think the majority of the women probably have most of the truth put together.
06:12But they're obsessed about the damn plane incident.
06:14Congressman, what are your thoughts on Brittany Bateman's on-again, off-again relationship with
06:19Jared Osmond?
06:19I mean, honestly, I think that, look, I think she should focus on her relationship with her daughter.
06:26Yes.
06:27And I think that the scene in, they were in therapy together, I think, I mean, it was hard.
06:33And so I think she's clearly better off focusing on her family and especially her daughter, who clearly wants a relationship with her mom.
06:39Give it up for Congressman Robert Garcia, everybody.
06:42That's impressive.
06:43Very impressive.
06:44Very impressive.
06:44Tonight's Beverly Hills premiere ended with the women giving a fun and flirty toast to a hot girl summer.
06:51But since none of us are over the con girl fall we all just had in Vegas, I want Kyle's Bravo Con tea.
06:58Okay, Kyle, who's won Bravo Liberty we'd be surprised to know you met for the first time?
07:04Bravo, I met for the first time.
07:07Craig.
07:08I've seen him.
07:08Craig from Southern Charm.
07:10I didn't know my song before.
07:12Most meaningful interaction you had with a Bravo fan?
07:16And ever?
07:18Will somebody...
07:18At Bravo Con.
07:19Oh, Bravo Con.
07:20Most meaningful.
07:21I don't know.
07:21People coming up and telling me that, you know, that they were struggling and they were sick and that getting through that time really helped them.
07:27I hear that a lot from people watching the show.
07:29Yes.
07:30Reaction to Potomac's Stacey Rush calling you rude during the Reading Room show?
07:35That is not something people say about me.
07:36I'm nice to everybody.
07:38I just, I didn't know who she was because I haven't seen the show since she's been on.
07:41So I, I am sorry about that, you know?
07:43In honor of Stacey calling you out, was there anyone you felt snubbed by during the weekend?
07:48Not at all.
07:49I feel like everybody was so incredibly nice to me.
07:52Reza Farhan has a hard-on.
07:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:55He has a hard-on against you.
07:58He is so nice to my face.
08:00Oh, really?
08:01So nice.
08:01Oh.
08:01He had a nice, you know, interaction.
08:03I told him how great he looks.
08:04He was so nice.
08:05And then he says, you know, you gotta get attention somehow.
08:07Did you wind up crossing paths with Lisa Vanderpump at all?
08:11I did not.
08:12You did not?
08:12No.
08:13Did it bother you that Mauricio's people photo shoot and spread came out right during the
08:19weekend?
08:20I didn't even put that together.
08:21Okay.
08:22Obviously not.
08:23Reaction to Dorit lighting up the cigarette during her acceptance speech at the Bravos.
08:27I loved it.
08:28Yeah, I did.
08:30Thank you very much, Kyle.
08:32Tonight, Sutton's mom, Reba, reminded us of her gentle side.
08:38She matter-of-factly said about PK, I find him very unattractive.
08:41I want to see which zeitgeisty moments Representative Garcia finds attractive, since it's not every
08:47day, a sitting congressman comes through here.
08:50So we're going to play...
08:51Does the congressman give a damn?
08:54Okay.
08:55Does the congressman give a damn about global warming?
08:59Absolutely, yes.
09:00You may be the only one left.
09:01Does the congressman give a damn about Wicked for Good?
09:04I actually just saw it, so absolutely.
09:06Love the movie.
09:06Love the show.
09:07Okay.
09:08Does the congressman give a damn that Bad Bunny will be the Super Bowl halftime performer?
09:14Love Bad Bunny, so absolutely excited about it.
09:17Okay.
09:18Kyle, do you think the congressman gives a damn that Vicki Gunvalson is coming back for
09:22season 20 of OC?
09:24I think he very much gives a damn, right?
09:26You excited about that?
09:27I give a damn, and I'm representing part of Orange County, so absolutely.
09:29Okay, there you go.
09:31Kyle, do you think the congressman gives a damn about the demolition of the White House
09:35East Wing?
09:36I do.
09:37I do.
09:38I think he does.
09:38It's a tragedy.
09:39It's horrific, and so I give a damn.
09:41Kyle, do you think the congressman gives a damn about universal health care?
09:45Yeah, I think he cares about that.
09:47Okay, yes.
09:49Kyle, do you think the congressman gives a damn that Jonathan Bailey is people's sexiest
09:53man alive?
09:54I think you care.
09:55I think you care.
09:57Congressman, are you single these days?
09:59Yes, I am.
10:00I mean, I'm not married.
10:01Right.
10:02I'm dating, but not married.
10:03That's another political answer.
10:04I love this.
10:05Okay.
10:06And, congressman, you are Strictly Dickly, right?
10:09Yes.
10:10Yes.
10:10Okay, very good.
10:11I'm just making it clear.
10:14Okay, does the congressman give a damn?
10:16Kyle, do you think about the upcoming Real Housewives of Rhode Island?
10:20I think he cares about all the housewives.
10:22That's the sense I'm getting.
10:23Absolutely.
10:23The congressman is a man of taste and principle.
10:26Thank you very much, congressman.
10:29Coming up, we have more with Kyle and Representative Robert Garcia.
10:34Here's to stopping by next week.
10:35Don't go anywhere.
10:36Hills.
10:37Band Hills.
10:39The Band Hills.
10:40Band Hills.
10:41Band Hills.
10:46Watch what happens now.
10:48Watch what happens now.
10:51Hey, everybody.
10:52Welcome back to Watch What Happens Live.
10:54I am Andy Cohen in the Bravo Clubhouse.
10:56With Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Kyle Richards.
11:00Say hi to U.S. congressman and a Bravo fan representative, Robert Garcia.
11:07Over at the bar, it's Justin Sylvester from Reality Hot Seat, which is live this Sunday night at 8 on Peacock.
11:15Do you think, how long have you known Kyle?
11:1816 years.
11:19Wow.
11:20So, right before the show started, has she changed?
11:24Not at all.
11:25Not at all?
11:26Not one bit.
11:27She's the same person I met.
11:29And when I met her, it was like the second week of filming for season one.
11:33Wow.
11:33And she thought it was going to be like three months, and it's going to be this little job.
11:37And then her life changed right in front of everybody.
11:40Drinking game reminder, anytime you hear this word, drink like the ghosts of our forefathers probably did when Heather Gay was quoted in Congress.
11:49Let's take a few questions from the fans.
11:52Elsa from Miami is here in our studio audience with a question for Kyle.
11:56Hi.
11:56Hi, Kyle.
11:57Congrats on your 15th season.
11:59I just really want to quickly say, as a girl mom, I love how you showcase your relationship with your daughters.
12:03That's my favorite part about watching you.
12:04Such a good mom.
12:06My question is, after 15 years of being on The Real Housewives, if you can give advice to season one Kyle, what advice would you give on love and marriage?
12:15Oh, love and marriage.
12:16Oh, wow.
12:16Um, not to get so busy that you forget about your foundation.
12:24I'm not saying I did, but, you know, as time went on, I think both of us were so busy.
12:29Um, what else would I give?
12:31Just to tune out the outside noise.
12:34Sorry.
12:34Just tune out the outside noise because we dealt with a lot of that for so many years, and things that weren't true affected me so much.
12:41And now it's not true.
12:42Did it affect your marriage?
12:44The rumors?
12:45Just because it would make me act a certain way towards him.
12:48Right.
12:48And even if it was things that I knew weren't actually true.
12:51Right.
12:51You know, there were, like, a time, oh, they saw him in Dallas with some girl.
12:54He wasn't even in Dallas.
12:56So, and I knew that, but I would be upset and then treat him differently.
13:00Right.
13:00And then he would say, why are you, it's not true, why are you doing that to me?
13:03So, I wish I could, uh, tell the first season, Kyle, to tune out all the noise.
13:09Yeah.
13:09All right.
13:10Thank you so much.
13:11Next, we have a virtual fan question for Congressman Garcia from Jennifer from Michigan.
13:18Hi.
13:18Hi, Andy.
13:21Hi, Kyle.
13:22Hi, Robert.
13:24Roberts.
13:24Which Bravo-Leberti would make the best politician, and which politician would make the best Bravo-Leberti?
13:36I do love Heather.
13:38Uh, I think Heather Gay would actually make a great politician.
13:40I think she knows how to maneuver, get along with everybody.
13:44Yeah.
13:44She's funny.
13:44She's a storyteller.
13:45Yes.
13:46I'm a fan.
13:47Um, I think right now, the best politician would, I'd love to see on TV, even though I see her every day in Congress, uh, would be Marjorie Taylor Greene.
13:56Because she has made such a switch in her politics, um, I think it'd be pretty interesting to see her.
14:02You two have had kind of a rough history.
14:04What do you make of her transformation?
14:07Look, first, I don't think anyone should excuse some of the horrible things that she has said and the way she's treated people.
14:13But I believe that everyone has an opportunity to change.
14:15And if she's genuine in wanting to be a better person and a kind person, I think she should be given the space, uh, to, to do that.
14:22I think you make a good reality, Star.
14:24All right.
14:25Give me a call, Andy.
14:27I'll give you a diamond if you want to share my diamond with me.
14:30Kyle, uh, you saying I might go Brad, I might go Angelina.
14:34You know, really made a lot of waves.
14:36I know.
14:37It didn't make a lot of waves.
14:38Yes.
14:38So many waves that our garnish here just made a run for it.
14:42It just fell down behind you.
14:44Even the tinsel.
14:46Can't believe.
14:48I mean, wow.
14:50Well, you know.
14:51What can I say?
14:52Yes.
14:53I'm very open-minded.
14:54Yes, you are.
14:55Good.
14:56Um, uh, representative, uh, Garcia, Alexis H said, as a former mayor yourself, what's your
15:02advice to the incoming New York City mayor?
15:05Oh, I, look, I think, um, obviously he's captured the attention of the city.
15:09I think he should focus on delivering what he promised.
15:12And I think his promise on affordability, I think, resonated with folks.
15:15And I hope he sticks to that.
15:16Yes, well, Representative, uh, Garcia fought to increase California's minimum wage, while
15:22Kyle and her friends have created a massive spike in California's maximum rage.
15:28But let's see if these two Golden State legends find themselves on the same page as they play
15:33one, two, agree or disagree.
15:36I'm going to make rapid-fire statements about Beverly Hills and count one, two, agree or
15:40disagree, and we'll see how many you match.
15:43If, uh, Lisa Vanderpump had shown up to the Season 9 reunion, she would still be a housewife
15:49today.
15:49One, two, agree or disagree.
15:53Okay.
15:54Kyle was correct.
15:55Camille was a effing liar.
15:57One, two, agree or disagree.
16:00Okay.
16:01Wow, the congressman agrees.
16:03Uh, the Beverly Hills ladies do too much when it comes to glam.
16:07One, two, agree or disagree.
16:10You agree.
16:11I do agree.
16:12Yes.
16:13Uh, to this day, Yolanda's former glass fridge is goals.
16:18One, two, agree or disagree.
16:20I've got to go with this again.
16:21Okay.
16:22No, you don't care for the glass fridge?
16:24I know, I think looking at your food that way is kind of weird.
16:26Okay.
16:26But your food was, like, staged perfectly.
16:28In that scenario, it's great.
16:29Goodbye, Kyle, is the most quotable line of all.
16:33All time from Beverly Hills.
16:35One, two, agree or disagree.
16:37What do you think it is?
16:39I mean, there's so many.
16:40Yes.
16:40I bought the bunny.
16:41Right, yeah.
16:42I even sounded like her.
16:43That was a good Kim impression.
16:45Yeah.
16:46Sometimes I sit and wonder what Carlton is up to these days.
16:49One, two, agree or disagree.
16:52I knew you were going to disagree.
16:54Kyle and Mauricio will get back together someday.
16:57One, two, agree or disagree.
16:59I'm not voting on that.
17:03I mean, I...
17:04The lady sitter is under the bar right now.
17:09You're both politicians.
17:11Okay.
17:12Harry Hamlin is the hottest Beverly Hills husband of all time.
17:16One, two, agree or disagree.
17:19I mean, he's a good-looking guy.
17:21Yeah, right.
17:22Well, you're...
17:23Jiggy will forever be the most iconic Housewives pet.
17:27One, two, agree or disagree.
17:29I would have to agree, actually.
17:31Okay.
17:32Adrienne Maloof's tinsel in her hair is still chic 15 years later.
17:37One, two, agree or disagree.
17:39Well, I'm going to have to say agree since Kathy has it in her hair right now.
17:42Okay.
17:43Lisa Vanderpump will return to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills one day.
17:47One, two, agree or disagree.
17:50Okay.
17:51Hey, thank you both very much.
17:53After the break, we have more with each two.
18:05All right.
18:06Welcome back to Watch What I've been talking.
18:08I'm Andy here with Kyle, Congressman Garcia, and Justin at the bar.
18:15We love you, Justin.
18:16Um, Representative Garcia, you led the charge for George Santos' expulsion from Congress.
18:24What was your reaction to Trump commuting his sentence?
18:29I mean, look, I think that was a mistake.
18:31I think everyone deserves a chance at redemption, but I think he did some horrible things and cheated
18:37people out of their money, and so I think that shouldn't have happened.
18:38And I think that all the pardons that have happened have been against our constitution and our values.
18:43Um, Kyle, do you, what can you tease to come from this season?
18:49What can I tease?
18:50Well, I didn't think we were supposed to say, but it pretty much came out at BravoCon that
18:54Erica and I are not speaking with Dorit and vice versa, because we had a very big, um, blowout
19:00in, on our cast trip.
19:02So, that was, you know, it was really shocking because we have been there the longest and,
19:08you know, obviously know each other the best and the closest.
19:11So, it's always a lot more difficult when that's the case instead of a new person coming in.
19:15Um, are you surprised that Erica has had quite, Erica now has surpassed LVP for time on the
19:23show?
19:24That's amazing.
19:24Yes.
19:24I do not realize that.
19:25Yes.
19:25I mean, I love it.
19:26You know, I love Erica so much.
19:27Yeah.
19:28I'm so happy that she's there with me.
19:29Thank God.
19:30Uh, it is time for Watch What Happens 5.
19:33Representative Garcia may have already quoted Heather Gay in Congress, but there are a few
19:39more good time girls and boys of Bravo who can feed him lines in a pinch.
19:45So, we are counting down the top five Bravo quotes that we want to hear in Congress.
19:50Okay.
19:51When your colleagues complain that a bill you sponsored wouldn't play well in their district,
19:56just respond with our number five quote.
19:58I made it nice.
20:00I'm ashamed.
20:00If nobody wants to behave themselves, then you all go home.
20:03Okay.
20:04At number four, when someone tries to convince you to vote against the interests of your constituents,
20:10you can just say, not today, Satan.
20:13Not today, Neck.
20:15Not today, ankles.
20:16Okay.
20:17And if someone from the other side of the aisle dares to accuse you of lying, simply
20:22say our number three lie.
20:24I'm a lawyer.
20:26I'm a storyteller.
20:27Yes.
20:28When the Capitol's abuzz about a political hit piece that just got published about you,
20:33just look at them and respond with our number two.
20:37The rumors and the nastiness.
20:41And the number one Bravo quote you should say in Congress is inspired by a First Lady not named Mary Cosby.
20:48I'm not Michelle Obama.
20:50If you go low, I'm going low with you.
20:52Oh, yeah, Congressman, I know we can get on here and say all of these at the Capitol very soon.
20:58I want to thank Kyle Richards, Representative Robert Garcia, and Justin Sylvester for being here.
21:04The word of the night was Doreen who said it six times.

21:11Monique Samuels and Sarah Sherman are here up to Mary to Madison.
