Chris and Albie Manzo's Tips for Watching the 'Manzo-Thon'

Get buzzed, prepare for nudity and enjoy, the brothers recommend.

By Mike Hess

Don't have anyone to hang out with on Saturday evening this weekend? Well stop searching, because you've got a date with Chris and Albie Manzo during the first-ever Bravo Manzo-Thon.

The Brothers Manzo and their trusty sidekick Greg Bennett will be running through the last three episodes of Real Housewives of New Jersey (the Napa trip), offering up their own personal commentary between the scenes and telling you how things really happened during the drama-filled vacation. And while it's a special event for Bravo, for the Hoboken trio, it's just a normal weekend activity.

"That's what we do every sunday anyway. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary," Chris said, referring to sitting on the couch together, watching the episodes and cracking all sorts of wise about what happened. (Much like the video below)



The Dish asked the brothers what they'd recommend people eat and drink during the Manzo-Thon, and Al said he'd "definitely suggest having a nice buzz on" for the duration, and then gave a bit of a warning.

"You're going to see a lot of ... How do I say this -- these three episodes are really d--- heavy. You see Joe Gorga's penis, you see a little Rick Wakile penis ... I'd stay away from pretty much anything you're going to have a hard time cleaning up off the floor." Chris added that kielbasa and hot dogs might not be the best option, either.

And, just for fun, now that they've done a Manzo-Thon, we asked if an actual marathon could be in the future.

"There's no chance of me ever running a marathon unless ... no, there's no cause I care about enough to actually get up and run that much," Chris said in a moment of reflection. Albie, on the other hand, seems game, telling us: "When I was in the police academy I was running a lot, I just started running again recently, and I was saying to myself it would be really cool to do that."

And, in true brotherly fashion, Chris then jumped in, declaring: "You're so full of s---." Ah, brotherly love.

Watch the Manzo-Thon this Saturday starting at 5p!
