Even though Captain Lee has shared his own opinions about Tom, Kate didn't have the greatest experience either when she met the Vanderpump Rules star for the first time. In a tweet from March 4 after the news of Scandoval broke, Kate wrote, "Ariana & I are from the same town so I ran into her and Tom at a bar at Thanksgiving. It was only my 1st season of BD so I guess I wasn’t 'cool enough' b/c a mutual friend introduced us & Tom Sandoval ignored me." She also added that he was "too busy fixing his hair in a mirror on the wall."

On Below Deck, Captain Lee has always been open when it comes to how he feels about the crew who work for him. Captain Lee is famous for his one-liners, no-nonsense attitude, and running a tight ship season after season. Although the reality star often stays out of the Below Deck drama more than the captains on other spinoffs, he's never afraid to call someone out or fire them for not doing their job correctly and demands to be respected as a boss.

When Captain Lee is given the opportunity to dish on other Bravo shows with Kate aside from Below Deck, he will be able to share his thoughts on certain situations. Since he's already known for coming up with hilarious one-liners and being straightforward, viewers will never know what's about to come out of his mouth next. If Captain Lee's comments about other Bravo stars are as entertaining as his Tom Sandoval comparison to Johnny Depp, viewers won't be disappointed while watching him on Couch Talk with Captain Lee and Kate.
