Ep. 68 - "The Valley of the Trolls" - S2E1 of The Valley recap w/ guest Ellory Smith

Michele and Lauren are joined by chaos connoisseur Ellory Smith to break down The Valley Season 2 premiere — Jax is still in denial, Janet sucks, like a lot, and Lauren & Michele defend being "Jesse's Girls".There’s a terrible white party, an even worse intervention style party at Jax's, and Doute is the voice of reason. These actually may be the best days of our lives.Follow Ellory Smith:IG: @ellory_smithTwitter: @ellorysmithYoutube: ⁠⁠youtube.com/@bravobreakdowns⁠Follow Bravo Breakdowns Here:IG: @bravo_breakdownsTikTok: @bravo_breakdownsYoutube: ⁠⁠youtube.com/@bravobreakdowns⁠

"Mission: Kimpossible" - The Baldwins Episode 6 Recap

Lauren and Michele recap perhaps the funniest episode of the Baldwins yet! (Note: we had some technical difficulties during this episode, so apologies; but what was lost in sound quality was made up for in laughter!) This episode of the Baldwins was all about B-roll close-ups of dog pee and poop on a level reality TV has never seen before. We meet Mocachino and Cappuccino and the 6 terrifying Baldwin cats, plus dog trainer Gail who is a nice middle aged lesbian who is as overstimulated as we are.We also go back and forth in this episode about who is worse- are we Team Alec because Hilaria is playing games with a confused elderly man's mind? Or are we Team Hilaria because every single episode has been all about Alec because he is so self-obsessed he can't have a conversation about anyone else? Find out all this and more on this episode- plus our "The Valley Season 2" bingo cards (available on our IG!) and next week, our Valley S2 Premiere Recap!
