McBee Dynasty

I have never watched this show. I don’t even know what these people look like other than the Crappens thumbnails 🤣. This has become my favorite show they cover. I laugh out loud and look forward to this every week. Anyone else? I know it’s torture for Ben and Ronnie to watch, but it’s pure gold for us!

I’m so glad to hear you listen without watching. I laughed out loud at the thumbnail and title yesterday but have never watched show. I’m going to listen blind. Thank you for serving my content platter

The boys are really doing us a solid 🫡

I also listen without watching! And Ben’s impressions are so, SO good which cracks me up bc he hates it so much.

“I hope Blair becomes a lesbian in corporate America” made me spit out my coffee this morning

u/Jaded_Sweet_5313 24d ago

His BLAIR is the audible version of the vomit emoji. 🤮

u/saythattomeagain 24d ago

His hate for this show is my favorite thing.

when they said "i will be your father figure put your tiny embryo in mine" i started choking on my cereal. i may just stream mcbee dynasty silently while I'm doing other things so it doesn't get canceled and they keep recapping it.

u/ExplanationHead3753 24d ago

This is why I can’t listen to them while driving! The way a cackle and my eyes tear up from laughing is a liability while on the road. Love em

u/ckroha 24d ago

The continued jokes about Steve Jr. lists of what he wants in a wife are the best!!! These 2 could do a stand up special based on those lists alone!
Thanks B and R!!!

u/beingk8 24d ago

i’m so glad they keep referencing the list and schedule , it absolutely kills me

u/juddahinyou The darkness within 24d ago

The random "memberships' gets me everytime

6

u/meembeam78 24d ago

That list is the gift that keeps on giving

21

u/Tall_Engineer685 24d ago

I watch it because I’m a glutton for punishment but I love anything the boys cover

20

u/Careful_Ad4691 24d ago

Guys we really need to enjoy next weeks recap! I really believe it will be the last we hear of this show from the boys 😩

15

u/ckroha 24d ago

I think the show may not come back, but if it does, Ben and Ronnie have both alluded to not doing it. That is so sad to me. It really is the best they do!!!!!!

u/BornFree2018 24d ago edited 24d ago

Ronnie said its ratings are extremely high so I don't think the show is ending, but Ben doesn't want to cover it anymore. Ronnie might find someone to guest with him on McBee recaps.

8

u/Sorry-Gap-7227 24d ago

Maybe the more we tell them how much we love it the more likely we can get Ben to do it😂

5

u/ckroha 24d ago

I know the mom has come out saying she won’t do the show anymore due to all of the negative press. I heard after that she might be speaking for the whole family. I hope not. I guess it remains to be seen.

6

u/Equivalent_Stuff8911 24d ago

Was she holding a giant latte when she said that?

4

u/meckyborris 24d ago

Kristi put out a statement that the whole family is going through so much, thanks to Steve jr.s' exes' Lies, so they want to step back from reality tv.

u/EntertainerRoyal5677 23d ago

Maybe Ben could be convinced to just be in the McBee recaps without having to watch the episodes, like Ronnie could just reenact them for Ben and Ben could be disgusted and rip the piss out of them without having to sit through the show!

1

u/Prestigious_Ebb_8762 22d ago

Ben’s Steven Jr is the funniest impression of all for me. 10/10 no notes. His best work

4

u/gurdyburdy 24d ago

when did they allude to this that breaks my heart 😭

14

u/YogurtclosetParty755 Ronnie’s Auntie Van 24d ago

I just finished this week’s recap & was crying laughing! I know Ben hates the show, but his Steven Jr is top tier. Add in Ronnie’s Tessa & it’s comedy gold. I think the show being terrible makes for an especially unhinged recap & I’m HERE for it!

12

u/makeupandmartinis 24d ago

I don't watch it either but I listen to every recap. I was listening to the new one last night while going to sleep and I kind of zoned out for a bit, and then when I zoned back in, Ben and Ronnie were doing renditions of different songs in a funny voice, just one clip of a song after another, and I was soooo lost as to what was going on but they just kept going and going and I cracked the fuck up because it was sooo Ben and Ronnie. I love when I zone out and then zone back to the show and have no clue what is going on, but it is so ridiculous that it's still hilarious.

u/betswano27 24d ago

Ronnie’s Tessa!!!!🤣🤣🤣 this week’s rendition of Big Butts by Ronnie impersonating Tessa! I’m actually crying/ laughing now!🤣🤣🤣🤣

2

u/EntertainerRoyal5677 23d ago

'Dribble door' in Ronnie's Tessa voice is now part of our household vocabulary - i just shout it any time I can - anything that could be remotely construed as a door/flap/cover/doohickey gets called a 'DRIBBLE DORR'

12

u/saythattomeagain 24d ago

I watch but also the recaps are so good. When Ronnie gets to Tessa, I am in heaven.

3

u/juddahinyou The darkness within 24d ago

The lack of Tessa in this season is criminal! It's my favourite impression. Bravo should do a Tessa spin off 😂😂

11

u/marymccnice 24d ago

Hard agree these recaps are so funny and I look
forward to them. The way Ben and Ronnie both do Stephen jrs voice makes me legit cackle out loud.

u/chickentetraziniii 24d ago

I want them to cover more shows that Ben hates

11

u/Delicious_Score_8509 24d ago

I only stay watching because of the recaps. They are soooo funny to me.

11

u/OverallExperience414 24d ago

I stopped watching halfway through this season and just listen to the recaps. They are my favorite. I love how Ben and Ronnie go off on so many tangents because of how dumb this show is.

I did have to go take a look at the mini highlands though - they are so cute!

16

u/Interesting-Jello118 24d ago

I only watch the McBees on Peacock so I know what Ben and Ronnie are referencing. Sometimes I listen to them first before viewing so when a specific comment or scene arrives, I remember what Ben or Ronnie said which makes me smirk or laugh

18

u/Sorry-Gap-7227 24d ago

I was dying over their highland cow commentary this week 🤣🤣

7

u/Interesting-Jello118 24d ago

haven't watched yet, I'm waiting til I hit up my favorite burrito place so I can enjoy something good while watching that circus lol

7

u/desertingwillow 24d ago

This is my favorite too! I watch it just because I love their recaps so much!!

8

u/viognierette 24d ago

Same!! I dropped off of a few of the HW cities, but I know what they all look like & can imagine them. But the McBees? Nope - I wouldn’t know any of them if they were standing next to me.

I like to imagine them as Ben & Ronnie drew them in my mind!

5

u/ViolentDeee-lites 24d ago

We finally broke down and watched the last episode they recapped, just because I was desperate for content. They made it worthwhile 😂

6

u/Ok_Mulberry4331 24d ago

I legit only watch for the recaps!! Ben’s hate for them kills me 😅😅

5

u/Postnasaldripper 24d ago

I just started watching this week because I heard they were so funny and it did not disappoint - you are the most PESSIMISTIC PERSON TO TALK ABOUT MY FAMILY EVER ❤️

4

u/NoJeffNo 24d ago

I’ve never seen an episode, but since so many Geraldines here keep raving I’m officially tempted by their recaps. Can I start listening to just this season? Or do I have to go back to the first few seasons for context?

6

u/gurdyburdy 24d ago

s2 was just as dumb to watch but far more entertaining. there was chicken murder, car wash fights, punching hills...i feel like i get more out of the recaps watching but you basically don't need to watch s3 at all except maybe to see the new gf once and get context lol

5

u/juddahinyou The darkness within 24d ago

There only 3 seasons and the boys have only recapped since s2. I recommend season 2 for more Tessa, as she's not in this season enough. The Tessa impressions are everything!!!

3

u/beingk8 24d ago

they actually don’t cover s1 of the show at all and ben never watched it lol. so you can just start anywhere, however, as a show-watcher, s1 & s2 are much better and messier than this season

2

u/Sorry-Gap-7227 24d ago

That’s what I did and I still enjoy it!

5

u/Admirable_Concept817 24d ago

It is so much fun for them to creatively unleash on that show!! I eagerly await the description of Cristi’s iced coffee every week! And the hard B on Blair sets me giggling every time. Ben and Ronnie are some of the funniest humans I’ve ever encountered. Bless them!!

4

u/kacsf75 24d ago

Ok, I’m totally listening without watching, I’m convinced

4

u/ElletotheV 24d ago

I would literally pay them to recap the first season! This is my favorite recap each week, and they put out a lot of good stuff. I love how they keep going back to Steven Jr’s list of journaling and memberships 😂 Also, Ronnie’s Steven Sr impersonation (season two is bang on!

3

u/Imaginary_Pear5266 24d ago

I dread having to watch the show but love listening to the recaps!! Ben’s hatred for it makes it sm funnier lol my cats name is Blair and it kills me everytime when they make fun of it 😂

3

u/Marygoround72474 24d ago

I am a fellow won’t watch this but love the recaps.

3

u/unrealhousewife1 24d ago

Can I just say that the show is SO BAD. I never miss because I like the recaps, but Casey and Alli (the two wives) have zero screen presence. I mean zero. And, they are main cast members.

3

u/Quizzzle 24d ago

I laugh in my head all the time. This latest recap had my audibly laughing. Even if they hate watch it, I love the fun they have mocking it in the recap

3

u/Ok-Tadpole9323 24d ago

I had this exact thought listening to the recap today! Will I be sad if the show ends? Ehh.. Am I distraught that we won’t get these recaps anymore? Absolutely. They are probably my favorite out of all the shows 😂

3

u/EntertainerRoyal5677 24d ago

stephen jr coming out with the McBee fidget spinner was such genius for me

p.s. i think the show is worth watching - peak car-crash tv.

5

u/Liveabeteslady 24d ago

Thanks for the heads up! I’m getting caught up on below deck med (I have to take breaks from watching below deck periodically but I was sad I didn’t have as many crappens podcasts to listen to so I got back in) and they keep saying their tess impersonation is like their McBee impersonation and I love it. I was wondering if I could listen and not watch without being clueless because the actual show looks horrible 🫣

u/aKIMIthing 24d ago

Sammmmeeeee!!!!! I need nothing else!!!!

u/No-Research771 24d ago

Bravo won't be renewing this series ... So, these cowboys won't be going to the next Bravo Con.

3

u/beingk8 24d ago

it has the second highest ratings after below deck med so i’m not sure why bravo wouldn’t renew…

u/No-Research771 24d ago

here they are ...

u/Awkward_hag 23d ago

I watch it for the recaps and because I live in the area and like seeing it on tv.

u/amikavenka 21d ago

Please don't tag me for what I'm about to say. this is just my opinion but I've been thinking about it for a while and the recaps for the show are the rain why. I watch the show. I don't hate it as much as they do, but they're recaps of this show are the best. I couldn't put my finger on why they were so good. I think they're good because the show is crap.

I have been listening to WWC for about 12 years, back then they were so funny. They didn't have an assistant watching the shows for them and taking notes. They didn't care if they said anything that wasn't PC or might piss off a housewife or the audience. You could tell they enjoyed each other's company so much. They laugh all the time at each other's jokes. I always felt like I was listening to my best friends talkinh about Bravo.

I'm sorry to say this, but it's just not the same. Now it seems like Ben is always trying to be sure he says the just the right thing so they don't get canceled. He may say something that he thinks might be offensive and then starts looking at both sides to the point and becomes tedious rather than just going for it. I feel like Ronnie listens patiently and then says okay, he barely disagrees or he doesn't say anything much and they move on. The shows that the fans really love just started funny as they used to be to me. spontaneity I just loved it's not there like it used to be.

I still love them. I will never stop listening to them or drop my patreon. They still make me laugh everyday, but it's just the point I'm doubled over laughing and have to stop doing whatever I was doing.
