T-Swift’s Joe Alwyn Era Is Over, Debriefing Sandoval’s Infuriating Tell-All, & Kate Middleton’s Royal Cuticles
Ciao, betch! Sami is coming at you live from Italia, with Aleen back home. They wish Tay Tay (all too) well following her recent split from Joe Alwyn. Then they share their hot takes on Tom Sandoval’s recent tell-all interview that no one asked for… however, we’re salivating for the reunion. They wrap up with the internet’s latest viral obsessions: Ben Affleck speaking fluent Spanish — who knew — and a reaction on Harry’s confirmed attendance for King Charles’ coronation. It’s pretty obvious who we’re sending to the Caymans this week…. Howie Mandel.Check out our latest promo codes here: https://betches.com/promos Learn more about your ad choices.

Succession Recap: Season 4 Ep 3 (Connor's Wedding)
Somebody get me the best airplane-medicine-expert in the world, because Sami and Aleen have a lot to discuss and the plane is circling. Episode 3 of the final season of Succession was a memorable one, following the bombshell moment when **spoilers ahead** the family patriarch died on his private plane and everybody was left scrambling. How will things shake out now that the true meaning of “Succession” is in full swing – dramaturgically speaking – and what will happen to the family now that Logan is gone? Plus, they share the standout quotes of the week, talk about the wedding-that-wasn’t (but actually kinda was), and forecast some major predictions for the rest of the season. Thanks for listening… You make us feel like we caught a foul ball at Yankee Stadium. Be sure to tune in every single Monday for the rest of this season of Succession to hear more recaps!Read Sami's written recap here: “Succession” Episode 3 Recap: Who Deserves To Fuck Off This Week?

They talk about the reasons Barbie is going viral, and share the scoop on why Amy Schumer dropped out of the project. Then they go deep on the latest Scandoval news – Schwartz tried to do damage control on WWHL last night – but something isn’t quite adding up. They send Sandy’s business partner on a one way trip to the Caymans so he can try to get his stories straight.Check out our latest promo codes here: https://betches.com/promos Learn more about your ad choices.

Gwyneth’s Ski Accident, Harry Styles & EmRata’s PDA, & Selena’s In Her Single Girl Era
We’ve got a lot to catch up on, betch. Most importantly, how much does a good haircut cost these days? Aleen, Sami, and Jordana begin with their hot takes on Hollywood’s hottest new couples: Harry Styles & EmRata, and Selena Gomez & Zayn Malik are both making headlines. After that, they break down Gwyneth Paltrow’s memeable court case, and while on the topic of problematic blondes, they share their thoughts on Reese Witherspoon’s divorce. Aleen wraps up with her debrief on Daisy Jones and the 6 — should we be watching? — and they tell us where the new season of White Lotus will take plus. Terry Sanderson (aka the guy who’s suing Gwyneth) will be sent to the Caymans, because he’ll probably be paying her legal fees anyway.Check out our latest promo codes here: https://betches.com/promos Learn more about your ad choices.

Succession Recap: Season 4 Ep 1 (The Munsters)
Why is everybody so f*cking happy? Probably because Succession is finally back! Which is why Sami and Aleen are *rummaging* through the much anticipated season premier and recapping it all. They’ve already watched it 3 times – one for each Roy kid, unless you count Connor and his 1% – and they have a lot to say. From sad birthdays and “disgusting brothers,” to bidding wars and breakups, they dump out a ludicrously capacious bagful of memorable moments. Then they close with a “We Rate You” featuring Nan Pierce’s finest lines, Greg’s countless faux pas, and a look ahead to next week. Thanks for listening… You’re our pal. You’re our best pal.
