WWHL With Lydia McLaughlin: Balls and Drag Queens

October 1, 2017 by tamaratattles 52 Comments

Somehow I never got around to the this episode last week so I thought I’d take a quick look at it today. I’m sure there won’t be anything earth shattering, but it beats cleaning the ghetto shack. In case you didn’t read the Hugh Hefner post, I mentioned in comments that Lydia posted a photo of her mother, when she was a bunny at the Playboy Club. I thought that was interesting. Where exactly does this uber Christian thing come from? I’m not knocking it but it doesn’t seem to have started with her parents.

Speaking of Lydia’s mom Judy, she’s the bartender and has brought confetti and other items one might encounter at a five year old’s birthday party. Forever young, I suppose.  Oh wait, Judy is not the bartender she just brought a bunch of feathers and wands.

The drinking word is “balls.” Le sigh. Of course we go right into a lengthy discussion about Doug’s balls. Lydia says she thought she was being funny, but social media seems to think she really believes that they cut his balls off. It was a joke that went on for way too long, that was not funny. She assures us all that his balls are still there. That’s Little Miss Priss, we’ve done nothing but worry about your husband’s balls for weeks now. We can relax. 

The poll question is “Whose side are you on, Shannon or Lydia?” 65% of the idiots voting said Shannon. Really? How is this possible? Lydia asks Andy and the other guest if anyone can explain Shannon’s side to her. She doesn’t get it either.

Andy calls Lydia out for being freaked out by the drag queens. He asks her if Christians are against drag. Before he asked her she said, I think in a clip that drag queens are not in the Bible.  Actually, that is wrong. Deuteronomy 22 verse five address the situation quite clearly, “The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.” So her going to a drag club dressed as a man is a sin, according to the Bible. Why do I know these things and she does not?  She says the reason she said that drag queens were not in the Bible was not to imply that they were excluded from God’s promises, she just meant there was nothing in the Bible to guide her on this today. Except, if she had ever read the Bible she would know that there was. Andy wants to discuss this more at the reunion. Of course he does.

A really high guy calls and tells Lydia that he really likes both Shannon and Lydia and needs them to make up. Lydia hints that a reconciliation may be in the works later in the season.

A caller starts off by saying how Jesus loves everyone even Andy’s gay ass, and transgenders, and drag queens. This is probably true, as I always say Old Testament God was kind of an asshole killing people and making stupid rules about not eating bacon. But when he became a dad, he sent us a whole New Testament, so in my opinion, the New Testament replaces the Old Testament and we don’t have to pay attention to that anymore. Anyway, this caller is speaking for Jesus so surely she is of kind heart and pure spirit, right?

Wrong. She comes for Lydia and says, “What happened to your last magazine, and what is going on with your new one, and did you just come on the show to plug the magazine because you don’t want to do anything. You don’t want to dress up in drag or nuttin like that, so what’s up girl?” Clearly, this caller’s cup of Christian kindness is not very full. Lydia’s cup is starting to need a refill as well. She snaps with with “We have a new magazine, Nobleman magazine, and it is doing very well.” Andy says it very expensive, Lydia says it is like a coffee table book and it comes out four times a year.  Andy says they have big celebrities. Matt Damon was recently on.

Another caller comes for Lydia. Wow, she is getting Kenya Moored this episode. This one calls her a hypocrite for talking about Doug’s balls all the time but not wanting to talk about her boob job. Lydia says she is not sensitive about her boob job at all. Tamra asked and she answered. But Shannon was being loud and obnoxious pretending as if she had just found out for the first time in front of all the men.

Lydia still says that Heather Dubrow is not a big enough name to be on one of their covers. She’s a housewife! She’s not an A list celebrity!

Lydia for the win, y’all.

    I would guess that the reason Lydia lost the poll was because she is such a pretentious little snob. Granted, Shannon is not always, or often, likable, but she has been on the show a lot longer than Lydia and we have more loyalty to her, cray-cray or not. Lydia’s judgmental and narrow-minded perspective on life does not endear her to us; I don’t even think she belongs on the show – who needs to listen to a Bible-thumper? Her Mom is hysterical and how in the world did Lydia spring from those loins?! Get rid of Lydia – she has no story line, other than to judge others and act like an ineffective peacemaker.

      Exactly! Please dump the civilized lady who is actually rich and has gorgeous kids and takes fantastic vacations and has some morals. That is not why we watch this show!

      We watch for the cancer scams and the wine tossing and the back stabbing and obnoxious children, and hopefully a few physical fights and perhaps if we are lucky we will see an actual murder!

      Fuck this whole rich people and how they live crap.

            Now I got very tired of her pretentious comparisons and one- upmanship. She always had to overstate what they had monetarily and compete with anything anyone else had, on any front- hers had to be more expensive, more special, more more more. everything. It was exhausting and embarrassing- and she was not bright enough to understand it. Jim and Alexis spent their lives in pretentious games of spite and insecurity. And lies- he lied about just about everything, monetarily. And was caught about it,eventually.

      I was surprised by that poll! I thought, oh, Lydia will win it by a landslide. I like her this season- loved her first conversation with Shannon and Tamara and how they were hypocritical talking about Vicki, the convo with Meghan about Kelly and cheating-she was very straightforward. I could do without the flashy cars on her birthday but I was also deeply jealous.
      I was unaware there was an unwritten rule that we were supposed to be loyal to people on these shows for a few seasons. Cause.. that’s the example they all set. Hmm. Anyway, Shannon has been acting like a freak since the second season, always the poor shrieking victim and don’t get me started on Tamara. I dunno why but I still kinda dig Vicki-I can’t help myself.

        Love her or hate her… Vicki is the OG of the entire Real Housewives franchise. She’s going to have to do more than a cancer scam to get ousted. She might have to actually murder someone before she gets fired.

        By the way, I’d rather see Gretchen, Alexis, Jo or Lauri return than have to see Shannon, Lydia or Peggy return next season. Hell, I’d rather watch Slade than either of those three. And he literally makes my skin crawl. I’d even rather see Phaedra move to the OC.

        What an awful season.

She also is not screeching in public restaurants. I have zero loyalty to Shannon or anyone else on the show for that matter and why would I ?

For an alleged Christian, she causes chaos and turmoil in a covert wzy then stands back and watches tbe damage she caused, then comes on with her pseudo relivious problem solving. The devil incarnate – a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Get rid of her Bravo!

    The “I’m a Christian” Schtick has worn thin for me. You’re such a godly woman you can’t be in a drag bar but yet you can announce to the world that your husband is getting a vasectomy. She should swap her judgemental ways for the bible as it’s clear she hasn’t even read it.

        True she did go. I just don’t understand how someone who is so uncomfortable in being in a drag bar for religious reasons, yet doesnt even know why that is against their religion. Then on the other hand feels the need to use the state of her husbands testicles as a storyline. Something doesn’t add up with Lydia.

    Its hilarious to me how people go on about how judgmental Lydia is then bring up reasons she is not a good Christian. ..umm..there is a word called hypocrite. Look it up. Lydia is kind of annoying but she is fine. She has a nice life, nice marriage and cute kids. Might come across as boring an actual happy stable person. Shannon is totally nuts in every way possible. I would be humiliated if she was my mother. She is unstable and possibly boil a bunny crazy. IMO.

I dislike Lydia because she is dismissive of people who don’t see things her way and doesn’t give them a chance to explain their side of the story. Going on an on about the balls was like a toddler learning a dirty word and keeps repeating it for a reaction. Not a fan in the least. At least Heather was intelligent.

    If I had voted, I’d have been part of the 65%. For me, it has nothing to do with religion. Heather and Lydia do not share the same religion, but they both irritate me with their sense of superiority. I don’t watch to see lavish displays of wealth either. If their wealth adds to my viewing experience, it’s because these ladies can afford to do things I can only experience vicariously. I want to see them having fun, and I want to see them coping with the difficulties in their lives with a relatable mix of resilience and humility. Luann, for example, can be pompous, but when she laughs at herself falling in the bushes, I become her biggest fan. Maybe Lydia will win me over one day.

    I like Lydia. I admire she tried with the drag queens. Had one of them took her under their wing and showed her around I’m certain Lydia would had tried even harder. That situation would make a lot of people uncomfortable.

    Lydia works, wealthy family, a wife, hunky husband, doesn’t lie and I love her home. BTW, she has a chef and housekeepers. Her life I want.

    I think/hope Lydia will find her balance with religion and other people in a few years.
    and Lydia does not screech, blessed.

    I watched this episode and it was very clear to me that Andy brought Lydia on for the sole purpose of taking her down a few notches. He was clearly annoyed by her comments regarding drag. The “viewer questions” were probably his assistants as well. I’m not a big fan of lydias because I really think she’s kind of a mean girl. I think Lydia knows the verse in Deuteronomy , but was smart enough not to recite it to Andy.

Then I heard the same caller another night this same week, so I’m now convinced it was someone on Andy’s payroll. He seemed to really have it out for Lydia, which made me like her more and feel a bit sorry for her because I cannot stand that jerk!

    It’s common to think Jesus came into existence in the New Testament but that’s not true. The Bible proves His existence as early as Genesis. So everything God is blamed for the same would have to be said of Jesus. Moreover, Revelations is the ultimate punishment (death) delivered to over half the population. That would outweigh any numbers found in the Old Testament.

    I have always found that it is a waste of time to prove God is bad instead it is easier to find good teachers of scriptures to explain the things I cannot reconcile in my mind.

    Lydia is smart to avoid the of use scripture to prove that dressing up as the opposite sex for levity and entertainment is a sin.

      The Old Testament cannot prove anything about Jesus, as it was written hundreds of years before the new testament. What it does do is include many prophecies about his future birth. Jesus most certainly came into existence in the New Testament.Jesus and God are not the same entity. John 3:16 should clear that up for you. Also, no one here was saying God is bad. I was however noting as most people who have studied the Bible do, that God a lot more compassionate when he got a kid.

        Scholars use John 1:1-3 to prove God and Jesus were at the point of creation.

        In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

            I laugh because there is some truth in that statement when it comes to modern day teachings.

            Few scholars/theologians will disagree that the “Word” is referring to Jesus. I like Martin Luther, Charles Spurgeon, John McArthur. It appears 7 times in the Bible. I should have included more references.

            1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

            Here are two others:
            1 John 1:1

              My response to that is my response to a lot of things in The Bible. It is has translated into English in several ways, and then came King James who apparently changed up a bunch of things.

              I’m not Bible scholar. I just play one on the Internet while recapping housewives. So there is that. I’m never one to convince anyone to believe or disbelieve or change their interpretation of scriptures. I myself have a very limited grasp on it all and am merely a confuse agnostic who was raised for 16 years or so in the Southern Baptist Church. I like to read, and if a particular pastor was boring or repetitive or seem to be making shit up, I’d just quietly read the bible. 🙂
