Viall Files, Monica Garcia Interview

despite it all, I still like her - I am the problem

Way too long, but I’m glad I listened.

*seconds in, she starts lying

*but she’s so charming I like believe her?

*the podcast episode itself had so much upfront, I got bored

*monica wasn’t even on the first 40 minutes, and the entire episode is over two hours, which is objectively unnecessary

*she thinks Whitney is the most genuine which is interesting 

*cast won’t film with her so she can’t come back

*viall is calm, transparent, and asks all the questions andy cohen would never ask, which I appreciate

*monica explains her position on everything and defends her gossip girl moment by claiming the women all knew and interacted with the page

*I don’t disagree that heather created a “moment” with the dramatic beach reveal and I believe Heather knew before that trip

*now monica is pregnant with her 5th baby, and I’m bummed we won’t get to watch it unfold on the show…tbh they kinda need her.

*apparently someone has optioned the Burn Book, so we’ll really get all the tea and receipts

Not really worth the listen if you haven’t already. It’s mostly stuff we know, and she just has the floor to defend herself. She’s charming and nuts and she makes great TV.
