Our MOST EMBARRASSING Episode!

[@liza8577]

Ive always thought Bridget would be perfect to judge on one of those cupcake wars shows. Specifically the halloween episodes🧡

[@queenbee7749]

She would be so good on food network!

[@lisaknox4257]

I'm so glad you two had and still have a solid friendship, you're sisters at heart. I think you both came out of the Playboy experience so strong because of each other. A friendship forged in fire.

[@onelove33333]

Yeah I thought it was really disrespectful of Hef to mention his relationship with Bridget and Kendra during his little anniversary speech with Holly. Like he couldn’t just let Holly have her moment..

[@sargassum6190]

He is plying different eighteen year old girls with drugs and alcohol to manipulate them into orgies multiple times a week…. The filmed speech for television that mention the other two stars was not cool, though?

[@glampreda3803]

What's great about your show is that yes, you acknowledge how messed up things were then but you also celebrate the good things too. I can appreciate the honesty and sorry that in the past, I judged. We all have our journey.

[@elida5]

It's funny when Bridget mimics Hef getting flustered lol

[@nicolepineda697]

During covid, I started curbside pickup at Wal-Mart, I haven’t been back inside since! If your curbside is $35 or more, there's no fee, even if an item has to be shipped to you, because it's not in stock at that store, there's no delivery fee. I love it! This saves me money because I'm not mindlessly tossing items in my cart because they are cute as i roll by in my shopping cart!

[@jadebel7006]

Yh n they also give u the dodgiest pieces of meat.. the food that's right about to go out of date and half the time if they don't have something in stock, just replace it with something similar

[@intothevoid-et5ee]

Me too I have ebt and it's nice to use the app because I know exactly how much it's going to cost down to the penny and also sometimes food items don't count for ebt and you don't know until you're checking out so that's another plus to the app it tells you before.

[@Michele_78]

I agree! Walmart+ saves me from impulse purchases as well as gas money to drive there. I live in the country so it definitely helps.

[@HardFreckles]

@@jadebel7006That is why I just don’t usually order meat or produce for curbside. But for anything else, I love that service.

[@J---L]

Agree!

When I went to LA and went to Sprinkles and talked to people in line we all went to Sprinkles because of Bridget,

[@melaniem8239]

“Can I tell you a funny!?” Eek that’s so cute! I say that too 😘

[@not.samcooke]

my grandparents had separate beds! they were VERY old school and even after my grandpa had been gone for decades, my grandma always kept the two twin beds with matching spreads 😇

[@sazcorp]

I'm only halfway through the episode but it seems like Holly is sort of healing from some of her relationship trauma with Hef during this process of creating the vlog. She was genuinely happy to see him happy in this episode. I think that's great! She can hold him posthumously accountable but also appreciate his happiness.

[@windydev]

Holly! 😭 omg I feel so bad that you were crying from embarrassment. I totally thought it was a good cry. I feel so horrible you were feeling that way but it totally makes sense now. 💔 I'm so sorry that even happened.

[@cai103]

Do you know what season and episode this is about?

[@NextDoor-420]

​@@cai103 S2 Ep38

[@kittymaya4615]

I remember watching it when it aired & the sudden cry made me pause. It just didn’t feel like a happy, emotional, tears of joy kinda moment

[@ct6852]

That cry did feel complicated at the time. But I mostly thought it was a positive thing. Which I was kind of shocked by. I just didn't think their relationship was that deep.

[@karawigley6231]

@@cai103 It’s The Age of Aquarium episode from season two. Some have it listed as S2 E11 & others S2 E13.

[@onelove33333]

My favourite thing about Mondays is this podcast!🐰💖

[@sherlieks1]

I love how Bridget just goes along the for the ride with Holly's neurodivergent side stories. I'm ND as well and relate to Holly so much.

[@Alien91x]

Me too. We need a bridget as a friend!

[@christiea.6778]

Sometimes it seems so awkward with her “wow” “anyway” responses 😂 but she does seem so sweet and patient.

[@Puresoulonearth]

I don’t like Hugh as a person based on so many women’s stories, but I can see what a charming guy he was and his laugh was so cute and contagious. He did seem quite happy with you all at times.

[@JJGC28]

It’s great to get some more insight on how you really felt during that episode during the dinner scene. When I first watched it, it did seem like you were very uncomfortable and crying was a good way to handle the discomfort without upsetting Hef. People who haven’t dealt with close narcissistic people have no idea how difficult it is to deal with policing your own behavior for their benefit. So happy to see you thriving today Holly 💕 You too Bridget 💕

[@icedwidow]

There's nothing for kids at Sephora, besides chapstick. Please, don't ruin your daughter's fragile skin barrier.

[@510heart510]

I agree on the makeup part, but you’re never too young to get into the habit of using a good moisturizer & sunscreen. Especially with them being white, they’re more likely to get skin cancer

[@icedwidow]

@@510heart510 I’m not talking about things every single human should be using every day. I’m talking about literal makeup and fake eyelashes, etc.

[@510heart510]

@@icedwidow word, just wanted to clarify. I know plenty of people who still think sunscreen is only for beach/pool days or just don’t use it all together. I’ve also met people who think moisturizer can be subbed if you don’t have sunscreen 🥴

Still the best part of Monday! ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜

[@erinleigh9275]

This was y’all’s best episode so far. The commentary was so genuine and relatable. I look forward to your podcast every week and I think y’all are definitely in the pocket now. Keep being honest even when it’s uncomfortable bc it’s compelling 👸🏼👸🏼

[@Rinoa210]

I always wanted one of those crystal bras. Swear the first time I saw you wearing it Holly my brain chemistry changed... Actually this whole show altered my brain chemistry.

[@WillBlindYouWithLight]

Girls still wear them just not as often.. Hell the gypsy girls here STILL wear them.

[@ct6852]

Have definitely said this before...but you two have fantastic chemistry. There's something just nice about listening to you chat. Bounce off each other so well. Thanks for making Mondays not suck so much.

[@brookerangel-legris]

Hollys reference to the “Mr. balloon hands, sea horse..” video was so unexpected and hilarious! 😂 My husband & I say, “ Not my chair not my problem.” and we laugh & laugh. 😆 🎈 🌊 🐴 🌊 🐚 🪑

[@myphd-myprisonhistorydiplo691]

My favorite video ever!! I have to show people that video so they get why I say “not my chair not my problem” 😂😂😂

[@melaniegardner9118]

I firmly believe Bridget is the love of Holly's life and I love it. This show is so good.

[@ytuseracct]

I googled The Melting Pot there's still so many branches all around the states, and one in Canada. No more in LA though.

[@tanequaramon6210]

Thank you for being so candid and real about your true feelings and experiences 🩷

[@MmmKimboSlice]

18 year old sensitive me definitely picked up on why Holly burst into tears when he read her card outloud. Holly needed verbal validation and promise for long term committment, especially what was supposed to be a big anniversary moment for her, only to be cut down and embarrassed due to his comments. I knew before this podcost, but that understanding only comes from experiencing that hot and cold from him

[@ct6852]

Dang you're perceptive. I thought she was just emotional because she already had those things.

[@johnlovesbridge]

The Melting Pot by me closed before I had a chance to eat there. This was the 2000s, and I remember people mentioning how expensive it was.

[@judyholland7236]

Sounds like Kevin Burns was a bit high strung to flip out like that...no wonder he passed away from cardiac arrest yikes!

[@hb1429]

Fun fact about helium we use it in the hospital mixed with oxygen. It's useful because it helps "carry" the oxygen into the lungs. 😊

[@sweetlifehappywife3460]

The Melting Pot is still thriving here in Minneapolis. Love it!!!! 😍 great episode.

[@chipchipcheerio]

45:44 I totally thought he was out of pocket for including the other girlfriends. I remember picking up on that when I first saw the episode

[@KTLeydenCreative]

You can hear you giggle 'hehe the van!" as you walk hef outside loooll

[@KalenaSnoopy]

I've been to that same Melting Pot, Holly! It was in Beaverton, on the way to Portland. It's no longer there, but now there's a really fancy Melting Pot downtown at the top floor of a bank building. Very swanky.

[@liacat5831]

I'm from Germany and when I visited LA 10 years ago I had to get a Sprinkles cupcake. It was so good 😍 Love your content!

[@ashleyarnold4854]

The way I died laughing when Holly said “Sea Horses for eva” because I still quote that video to this day. 😂

[@ct6852]

I totally forgot about that. Then watched it again and it all came flooding back. The Windows 95 graphics are too perfect. lol

[@morganjoycexo]

“Drinking Out of Cups” was a core OG viral youtube video. I quote that lizard still til this day.

[@ct6852]

No way, Mistah Balloon-Hands. GET REAL.

[@christinehaley8097]

I agree it was so insensitive of Hef to make those remarks. It seemed to me he was in a sense doing it for the camera and the show, highlighting that he has three girlfriends which in a sense was the focus of the show. He seemed to always have an eye for the camera. That makes it no less disrespectful of his day with Holly and it is easy to understand her feelings.

[@WillBlindYouWithLight]

Got to remember they were told or guided in what to say I'm some scenes.

[@ThingsSheMakesShop]

holly i’m sure you know but make extra sure the skincare you do get rainbow is for kids skin. all of the skincare at sephora will be way too harsh and break her skin barrier being so young.

[@ryvirkelley5047]

Wait, people did sleep in separate beds back then. I remember George Burns saying that's how he got over his wife Gracie's death. He would sleep in her bed. I think it was more proper than posh.

[@Lizzybaby30500]

Yep.. Christmas story movie parents slept in separate beds

[@kendrajune]

Holly you ARE hilarious! I wish they showed more of that side of you too, although so thankful for this pod to give you both the opportunity to voice your thoughts about the show. We love hearing it!

[@kelsitourville5052]

I love this podcast because I see how holly is helping Bridget to realize as grateful as she is for her experience she HAS been thru some SHIT. And that it's okay to tell her truth even if it paints hef or playboy as a whole in a negative light and she's not being disloyal. And i see how Bridget is helping Holly see the silver linings and love that WAS around her thru her darkest moments/stepford wife phase. Both of you women are true inspirations and I'm not sure if either of you truly know the historical significance of this show because of just how many women truly can relate and to destigmatize unconventional relationships. The shit you girls had to take and smile thru in your interviews the sexual harassment on the daily by the public and media all the while helping to liberate masses of women. I thank you and am SO grateful I had you girls to watch and look up to growing up and now to see you guys so many years later still a beautiful representation of feminine bonds even tho the media tried(and failed) to pit you against each other rover a man and I truly pray Kendra and you all have a reunion and coming around of sorts, she'syounger than u so it seema like its taking her longer and also she is still stuck in. That reality tv cycle of toxicity but it does seem like she's waking up. So prayers for all 3 of you ladies sending lots of light and love you way 💙💚💜

[@KTLeydenCreative]

OH MY GOD i just finished Down the rabbit hole and then rewatched GNO when i say i also GASPED in fear/ hesitation as Bridget casually opened hefs door wothout knocking so I cant believe you mentioned it!

5 years does feel like a long time when you’re in your 20s and in a relationship that’s not heading towards marriage or something more than just dating. I know from experience and I knew how Holly felt when she had her breakdown at the anniversary party. I’m still not married because of that relationship.

[@skoolie_life3261]

The Melting Pot is my favorite restaurant too. I’ve been going there since the ‘90’s (Florida). However, their quality has declined in recent years. Smaller portions and not as many options that come with your cheese and chocolate. I also don’t think the batter is as crispy as it used to be. Also, I’ve asked a few times to buy a pot, and they said no, they don’t sell them. I think you got perks because of Hef.

[@ButImAGhosthunter]

Btw Ladies (I may have mentioned this) BUT if you wait til the end of Season 3 for the bonus episodes it might be easier. Seasons 1-3 has the cut scenes in a specific spot separate section on each disc's, (but season 4 had them in every episode section and it's easier to watch them before every episode in that case) anyways its just an idea if it makes any sense at all and I think I've repeated myself. Thanks for the Episode ❤

I think for a girl Rainbow's age the main stuff is gonna be sunblock (because sun protection is never too soon!) and a good cleanser. When she hits puberty, possibly some of those hydrocolloid acne dots and a moisturizer. But the serums, treatments, etc can wait until honestly her 20s.
