During "Rick & Kelly's Daily Smash," Rick Leventhal, Dodd's husband, started out the conversation of Tamra by calling it their "top story." "On yesterday's 'Smash' Kelly said something about Tamra and Eddie saying she that needed the paycheck from the 'Housewives' because she's the breadwinner in that family and Eddie hasn't really done much," Leventhal said. Dodd added, "She's the primary breadwinner."
She continued by adding that Tamra tells people that her husband Eddie Judge went to law school, and that she's been lying about a lot. "Don't be a liar, Tamra. You're an f'ing liar. I'm going to start calling you out," she said. "Because you didn't have my back at BravoCon. I'm just going to show everyone how much of a liar, and a fake and a phony that you are, so here we go."
Leventhal jumped in and said Dodd has the right to feel that way because Tamra hasn't been supporting her when given the chance.
The Chat Then Switched To Tamra And Eddie Judge's CBD Company, Vena
The chat then turned to Tamra and Eddie's CBD company, Vena. "When she started doing this Vena, I was at her house. She had some people in there that were at her house and I met them and they were the ones behind the CBD line. They're the ones who have the intellectual property, they were the ones that who did it. I was with her when it happened," she said.
They continued discussing how they researched the LLC documents for Vena Wellness, the company that Tamra and Eddie claim to have co-founded. "The documents make no mention of the Judges," he said. "And this is important, because if you co-found a company and there's an LLC for that company, we've have LLC's, we've co-founded companies. You can look it up, we have companies. You co-found a company and your name is not on the LLC, then it's not your company. You might be the face of the company. You might be making money when you sell the products of that company, but you don't own that company."
Leventhal then continued discussing his research saying that they may have "created elements of it and made it theirs."
According to Vena CBD's story on the website, "Created by Eddie & Tamra Judge, Vena was born from the passion to make high quality CBD accessible to everyone."
The story continues to explain how the company came to be. "In 2017, Eddie suffered from a heart condition known as Atrial Fibrillation. Tamra and Eddie searched high and low for the best way to improve his health and find relief, but were at a loss. Born from a need for transparent, high-quality products, they set out to start a brand that is committed to helping its customers find the right products to help them on a daily, weekly, monthly (and beyond) basis."
