The Real Bling Ring - Has Anyone Learned Anything? with Pia
The Real Bling Ring: Hollywood Heist provided no real clarity on what "actually" happened because everyone's stories contradicted the other's BUT it was fun to drag 90% of them for 2.5 hours!In addition to the recap, I also touch on the social media drama surrounding this project. Let's just say, one of the main characters (who declined to participate) is NOT happy that her name is mentioned throughout the entire 3 part docuseries.Also, listen to find out how all roads really do lead back to Bravo...SPOTIFY LISTENERS - Please rate me 5 stars! need to show that platform some more love!APPLE LISTENERS - Please rate and review so that I can keep moving up from that 4.8!

Southern Charm - Crazy Happy Done
Turning Shep's toxic fighting style into a drinking game is so on brand for Southern Charm. What's crazy is that in all the 7 years this show has been on, we've never seen Shep in a relationship. He's, umm, terrifying. The whispering in Taylor's ear took it to a place I didn't know it could go. Then she told him to pray and I was more scared than I've ever been for a relationship.Austen continues to bring the comedy, Craig continues to veil his emotional abuse as emotional intelligence, and Venita hit me with a haymaker at the end. I'm sure the Craig lovers will be on her side for how she came to his defense, but it didn't work for me. It made for an interesting scene tho, so there is that.Here is the link to the article I talk about at the beginning of the episode: https://www.fitsnews.com/2022/09/21/southern-charm-abuse-scandal-is-this-why-kathryn-dennis-has-been-missing-in-action/SPOTIFY LISTENERS - Please rate me 5 stars! need to show that platform some more love!APPLE LISTENERS - Please rate and review so that I can keep moving up from that 4.8!

RHOBH - Pretend PTSD with Pia
Rinna delivered one of the funniest performances of her acting career in that episode. If it was intended to be taken seriously, well then.........Erika, Rinna, and Dorit are poorly executing a strategic take down of Kathy. Should Kathy talk about her meltdown? Sure. I'm interested to know why she was upset. But as soon as Rinna starts acting shocked and traumatized by what Kathy did, Pia and I instinctively rush to protect Kathy from the evil wrath of Lisa's vortex of lies.This episode of the pod is a lot of over dramatized reenactments of Erika and Rinna's over dramatized acting mixed with a heavy dragging of Kyle and a sprinkle of disappointment in Dorit. We do also hold our girl Garcelle accountable, but she takes ownership like a queen so we don't have to do too much.*I mentioned a reality show in this episode that is worth watching - House of Ho on HBO. It's only 7 episodes, and the second season just aired this month. I have only seen the first season so I am super pumped to check out season 2! Highly recommend if you need a new easy watch.SPOTIFY LISTENERS - Please rate me 5 stars!

RHOA - Reunion Part 2 with Kendrick
Kendrick and I stand firm in our stance that it's time for Andy to pass the baton over to someone who is fresh and ready for these reunions because that man looked TIRED for part 2. He was rushing them through every package (or was that just the editing?), and we know he would never treat the ladies of Beverly Hills this way.We reference an episode of The Bravo Docket podcast regarding Bethenny's divorce.

Sins of Our Mother - This Was Preventable with Pia
Lori and her brother Alex should have been held on suspicion and ultimately charged in the death of Charles Vallow right from the jump! Nothing about their story added up, and if the police had done their JOB Tylee and JJ would be alive today. The Chandler, AZ Police Department need to be held accountable for their utter incompetence and downright laziness.Pia and I recap all 3 parts of the Netflix Docuseries Sins of Our Mother. I'm still working out the format for my true crime episodes so forgive the less than perfect execution. Hope you enjoy! Stay tuned for The Real Bling Ring - Coming next weekend!Here is a link to the Scott Peterson doc I reference in the episode.

Southern Charm - St. Simons Says Whoa
I think this is the shortest recap I've ever done but when you listen you'll find out why....This might be considered a controversial statement, but Austen is having a redemption season. That monologue in the shoe store with Taylor was one of the most heartfelt moments we've ever seen from him. And then the physical comedy on the tennis court?? And what about the butt bit!? I am so down for this Austen. Getting out of that toxic dynamic with Madison is doing him good.Shep, on the other hand, can go scratch. But honestly Taylor is not innocent in their situation. This episode isn't really about them tho. It's more about watching Craig drunkenly progress towards an epic explosion on Naomie. I could honestly see that coming from miles away, and she walked right into it by poking him when he was clearly blacked out.This episode is a true 10 out of 10 for me because it gave me old Southern Charm energy. I am liking the dynamic of the girls even if they are still getting to know each other. I can tell they're all open and sweet :)Take care of your mental health!

RHOBH - Dismissed Without Prejudice with Pia
Either Erika's lawyers didn't explain things properly or she just didn't want to hear it. The timing of the case being dismissed in Chicago in order to be filed in California couldn't have been worse. She used that as vindication and justification for her abhorrent behavior the night before.Erika's refusal to participate in Kemo Sabe and Dorit's decision to stay by her side sent Kyle on a tequila induced spiral that culminated in a childlike tantrum that required Mauricio to step in. Kyle had the nerve to call Kathy difficult and impossible to snap out of a bad mood, meanwhile she needed Rinna to guest host while she pulled herself together following her meltdown over Dorit not going to the hat party.In terms of next week, Pia and I hypothesize and theorize over the unseen Kathy drama.... if the only bad things that were sad were against Kyle and the show, well..............Take care of your mental health!

RHOA - Reunion Part 1 with Kendrick
We still don't know why Sanya is mad at Drew. Now she's claiming that they DID talk in Drew's room in front of her makeup artist, and the reason she's upset is because Drew betrayed her trust. Huh?? Andy looked like he was not enjoying her contribution to this reunion, so I hope they decide to bring her back and give her another chance.Of course Kendrick and I discuss the questionable seating arrangement, which is mainly just why is Sheree next to Andy? Before the recap we gag over the shocking revelation Kandi gave us in her Haus of Aaron interview regarding her fall out with Carlos King. Then we pitch some new reunion host candidates because Andy is TIRED and needs to hang up his suit.We definitely go on more tangents and gossip sessions than usual this episode so I hope you enjoy the ride! Oh and it's official...

Southern Charm - B List F*ck Boys
Taylor is so blessed by God that she gets to love Shep while he works on himself. Isn't that awesome? While Shep was in Bermuda downloading Raya, Taylor was back home hoping he would return to her so she could continue loving him in the name of God.In addition to breaking down that dysfunction, I explain why Leva is officially on my list, complain (again) about the network's insensitivity to the POC viewers, and crack up at that comedy show they called a gentleman's dinner.Take care of your mental health!

RHOBH - Compassion Party of None with Pia
Apparently compassion is a trigger word for Erika Girardi. As soon as Garcelle or Crystal utters the word she spins into a teeth baring feral cat, hissing at them for even suggesting she think about someone other than herself for a second. Erika said all the things we assumed she was thinking, but now we have official confirmation that she is a textbook narcissist.Kathy is trying to hawk Nicky's tequila which is honestly not my favorite move. I get into why, but I also clarify that nothing excuses Kyle, Rinna, and Erika being such B*TCHES during Kathy's "impromptu" infomercial. Next week, Rinna is going to go so far as to order Kendal Jenner's 818 tequila when Kathy's tequila is behind the bar. Let's have someone talk about Kylie's lip kit in the presence of Rinna Beauty and see how that goes...Before we even get into the recap, we discuss (at length) the drama between Oliver and his soon-to-be ex wife, and how the timing is suspiciously convenient for Erika Girardi. Also Rinna's newest social media tactic, Kyle's WWHL appearance, and Diana's "donation" to the Lion Air victims.Take care of your mental health!
