Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

Sarah decides to turn the People's People's Couch into the People's People's Court, and attends Jen Shah's sentencing in lower Manhattan. She shares her experience being in the courtroom where it happened with legal analyst, host of The Emily Show, internet sensation, and Bravoholic, Emily D. Baker. They unpack a translation of Jen's Shah's sentence inside and outside of the Bravo universe, Judge Stein's view of Jen's "scripted" tv character (and how closely that character seems aligned with the reams of evidence presented by the government), the continuing trauma felt by her thousands of victims (whose very vulnerabilities Jen belittled in court exhibits), the difference in how Coach Shah and Erika Jayne have been criticized (and possibly, why), and the ultimate cost of performative wealth on reality tv.

A new year hath begun, and who better to ring it in than a couple of dames. Sarah begins 2023 in child's pose (named after the emotional maturity of most Housewives) and limbers into the cloffice for a deep dive with her fave elected official: Founder and President of the Real Housewives Institute, and author of the New York Times bestseller "The Housewives: The Real Story of the Real Housewives," Dame Brian Moylan. They discuss the conditioning and placement of gender roles/norms within some Housewives marriages (and the impact of generational conditioning on Lenny and Lisa), the differences between Housewives escapism and aspiration, and the ways select cast members have taken "disingenuous" performance too far on Potomac and Salt Lake. Sarah immediately brought up PK as one of the best Househusbands around, in case you're wondering how well she's slept so far in 2023 - and it's Andy's Girls, Episode 374!Buy tickets to Andy's Girls Live: A New Beginnings 2023 Kiki, featuring guest cohost Ryan Bailey, on Jan 5th at 8pm ET/5pm PT: https://www.moment.co/andysgirlsJOIN/LEVEL UP TO THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY BONUS EPS, INVITES TO SPECIAL ZOOM EVENTS, AND MORE: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirlsFollow Sarah on social: https://www.instagram.com/damegalli/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Sarah hears a wind chime that feels like the spirit of 2022 putting its hand in hers, and realizes, yes, Jamie Lee, now is the time. The time for turtles (obvs), and the chicest countdown of Housewives moments AGs have ever seen. Sarah unpacks her picks for the top 25 moments in all things Housewifery, including Rinna as the living embodiment of a certain IG meme, Jen no-Shahing to the reunion and her now-cancelled trial, Jeff Lewis out Bethenny'ing Bethenny, British royal Lisa Hochstein, and so much more.

Sarah wakes up post-Hanukkah and Christmas, takes down the cloffice tinsel and menorah, and realizes her greatest holiday wish is about to be met - a deep dive of Miami and Salt Lake with her fave Bravo investigative journalist, Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, host of the pod Pot Psychology, and owner of pipedreams.fun). They discuss the difference between Lisa's fantasy of her marriage vs. Lenny's fantasy for himself, Miami's refreshing openness around plastic surgery, and LOL what the absolute hell is going on with Heather's eye (it's not just the crime, it's the coverup).

Ho, ho, ho, how long to camp will Jen Shah go? Sarah celebrates the holidays the best way she knows how: with a down and dirty tussle about Whitney vs Heather featuring two of her fave writer girls: Kevin Fallon (senior entertainment editor at The Daily Beast and creator of Obsessed, a pop culture website) and Louis Peitzman (Housewives writer and culture commentator). They sit underneath a Zoom Hanukkah bush/Christmas tree, and discuss standout moments in 2022, the importance of Miami's work centering sisterhood in storyline, the impact of a potential Jen sit down supplement, and why the origin story between Tre vs. Melissa is unlikely to resolve.

Happy Hanukkah, this episode is a gift! Sarah celebrates the festival of lights by inviting over her Bravo bestie who always shines from within, Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They settle into the cloffice (another kind of present), and discuss the disdain underneath Lenny's disrespect of Lisa, the burden of carrying a toxic relationship on TV and IRL, NJ's Housewives normcore, nuance as the missing piece of the SLC formula, and the ways Mia is being mistaken as a riddle instead of a punch line.

To life, to life, L'chaim! (perhaps not a fave song for Lenny Hochstein.) Sarah prepares for Hanukkah by getting out her almost-never-used menorah, and inviting over a gift to the content creator community, Danielle (co-host of the pod The Real Housewives of Rewatch and creator behind @BrandsByBravo). They discuss a shared double fluency of being Bravo creators and Hebrews, Lisa and Larsa's trust fall exercise friendship fight, the price of "fun" Jen on Salt Lake, and the differences in Bethenny now vs. then (gotta stretch that funny/humility bone or it'll atrophy).

Ring ring! Who's this? It's Erika Jayne's questionably insured replacement diamond - and a caller with a special announcement to share! Excited because Andy Cohen isn't the only one who's got the 411, Sarah Zooms up another king, king of midnight fun - Ryan Bailey (host, "So Bad It's Good with Ryan Bailey"). They make their special announcement (an upcoming live show collab!), and discuss the impact of toxic standoms, the ways financial independence factors into why some women join Housewives, what similarities Lenny shares with Kelsey Grammer, and the benefits of externalizing internal thoughts through the lens of narrative storytelling.

It's the day before the White Lotus finale, and Sarah is feeling particularly floral. So after praying to her Jennifer Coolidge altar - a sign saying "please let Tanya remain alive and also rich" placed near various Scary Island artifacts - she invites another iconic pop culture figure to the cloff, also known as the Doris Kearns Goodwin of Bravo, Evan Ross Katz (writer, fashion columnist, podcaster behind "Shut Up Evan" and "Drop Your Buffs, and author of "Into Every Generation a Slayer is Born: How Buffy Staked Our Hearts"). They sit in a meditative state for a moment (helpful when things get spicy during the ep), and discuss the similarities Heather and Meredith share with Gizelle and Robyn in conducting friendship warfare, the complicated journey at the core of processing trauma on camera, and what it means to call Lisa Rinna an icon (in this, our year of the lord, Garcelle).

Sarah watches the RHOM premiere and realizes its high tide to have a return guest make his cloffice premiere - a safe space in which to admit a surprising detail about Lenny H - Evan Real (senior tv reporter at pagesix.com and co-host of Page 6's pod "Virtual Reali-tea"). They pregame with I Am Real by Simon van Kempen and discuss the media narrative surrounding Lisa and Lenny's shock divorce (and show critiques some ex-Househusbands make in order to minimize their wives), the ways delusion and denial have been threaded through Jen Shah's relationship with her cast, and why Robyn and Gizelle's decision to use Mia as a vessel for revenge is an ineffective strategy.

Much like Ginger Zarin, Storm Umansky, and of course Archie Beador, Sarah is so excited for an IRL cloffice kiki that she finds herself barking excitedly (that also might be a reaction to Sparkle Dog). She welcomes one of her faves back to the People's People's Couch: Gibson Johns (host of the podcast, "We Should Talk"). They do just that, discussing the way some Housewives perform being desensitized around toxic online discourse for strategy and survival, the difference between hosting a party and providing a space (which both Jen and Angie K. are getting wrong), and a piece of presidential wisdom that some Housewives would do well to remember (or maybe, for the sake of tv, not).

Sarah wakes up with a tummy ache (equal parts too much vegan paleo pie, and a dream she was stuck in the RHOP Miami rental bedroom with constant flushing replacing ocean waves). Undeterred, she realizes the best medicine is a People's People's Couch RHOP kiki with one of her absolute faves, Bravoholic Emerson Collins (writer, producer, and actor). They discuss Potomac's mastery of the Housewives universe (big fights over small details), a defense of overreacting when responding to an overreach, the difference between being an artificial villain and an artificial person, and the effect of friendship without accountability (Jacqueline, take note).

This isn't even my effing plate! Oh wait, yeah it is, and it's filled with (vegan paleo) pumpkin pie and this delicious special ep! Sarah celebrates Thanksgiving the best way she knows how: by Zooming up three of her fave Bravoholic besties: Katie Mac Burdick (Bravo Betch), Dylan Hafer (Bravo by Betches), and B. Graeter (Petshopboy). They settle into the People's People Couch and unpack their reasons for saying thanks (and holiday wishes - not so fast, RHOC), Mia's chaotic attempt to pull focus (and what Robyn and Gizelle got wrong), and Salt Lake's identity crisis.

Sarah hears that the RHONY reboot has already gone through a cast shakeup (a potential record, mere few weeks into filming), and realizes the only way to discuss this breaking news is with Bravoholic C-SPAN: an AG kiki with news and entertainment journalist, and pop culture expert, Richie Skye. They settle into the People's People's Zoom Couch and discuss the importance of a critical core 4 (and lessons the new New York could learn from old NJ), the ways friendship history has felt calculated on Salt Lake and organic on Potomac, and Ashley's selective financial acumen.

Sarah watches a classic episode of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood and realizes that while she can also tie a shoe like the best in the biz, what she's really missing out on is hype (and Shahs of Sunset). So she combines both dreams by inviting a new guest over for a Zoom cloffice kiki: writer and content creator The Neighborhood Hype Girl. They mention it all: what Shahs has in common with RHOC and BH, the difference between Ashley's reliance on trust vs information as she navigates her divorce, and the potential for de-escalation between Ashley, Candiace, and Gizelle.

Sarah celebrates Bethenny's Housewives pod premiere the best way she knows how: by not listening and forming an opinion regardless (Bethenny would approve!). She Zooms up one of her fave Bethenny translators - who also hasn't listened to B's pod, because #BStrong starts from within - Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, host of the pod Pot Psychology, and owner of pipedreams.fun). They discuss the resentment that has been long-simmering underneath Bethenny's post-Housewives projects, including in her critiques of her former cast, the curse of the third season friendship fracture (which now includes the entirety of the Salt Lake City cast), and the ways Heather is playing opposing roles in her battles with Lisa and Whitney, with mixed results.

Sarah heads to her local polling location, determined to cast her ballot on Candiace vs. Ashley, Gizelle and Robyn vs. Candiace, Dr. Wendy vs. incomplete note pads, and Karen vs. the wind. After voting for NY governor - Bethenny ran uncontested, smh - Sarah Zooms up one of her fave patriotic Bravoholics, Daniel Stokes (culture programs lead at Brex and cohost of the pod "Thots and Prayers"). They discuss the ways Dr. Wendy's on/off camera branding confusion intersects with her Housewives identity, what Candiace's reaction to Ashley's 'reveal' says about her personal growth, and the ever-changing and always prestige relationship storytelling on Married to Med.

Sarah makes matching friendship bracelets to share with her best friend - Shan, obvs - and pops it in the mail, care of The Quiet Woman. She decides to continue her Celebration of Friendship Day - with more than a few opposing views, as God/Andy Cohen intended - by having a cloffice kiki with OG of the AG Damian Bellino (writer, producer, and co-host of the pod "You Might Know Her From"). They discuss whether RHOBH can move on from this season if Rinna stays in the cast, the battle by proxy on Salt Lake, Mia's Drew-esque energy (and creative freedom from facts), and what it means for Bethenny to host a Housewives-themed pod, in light of her "I'm up here" post-Bravo brand.

With just a week to go before the midterms, Sarah rushes to the polls (Team Candiace vs. Gizelle, Rinna vs. Humanity, Kyle vs. Kath). She realizes that the importance of voting when one is properly informed, so she immediately Zooms up one of her fave Bravoholic truth tellers, Michael Arceneaux (New York Times bestselling author, "I Can't Date Jesus" and "I Don't Want to Die Poor"). They discuss the complicated journey watching Rinna act as Kyle's surrogate sister, the selective use of innocence and guilt with friendships on Salt Lake, and the ways Michael is continuing to assert control during his separation from Ashley.

Sarah goes up to the DJ at the Caribou Club and makes a special request that is immediately approved - playing "Survivor" on a 40 year loop, in honor of this season of BH finally coming to an end! Sarah replicates one of Kyle's party splits, during which her lower body holds its series finale. After returning from Urgent Care (also a plea to the production behind RHOBH), she Zooms up one of her Bravo besties, the multi-hyphenate James LaRosa (writer, producer, director, creator, show runner, and close personal friend of whomever Rinna hates most). They discuss the concept of active allyship that Kyle and Kathy seem to have trouble applying to their relationship on reality TV and IRL, silence vs. sisterhood, nefarious intent on Beverly Hills vs. Potomac vs. Salt Lake City, and why some Housewives are choosing alliances with bad actors vs. the truth.

Sarah realizes this ep should take inspo from an iconic moment from Potomac, so she immediately calls Eric to the cloff so they can break the fourth wall. Unfortunately, he doesn't answer (and honestly the cloffice walls are kinda hard to break), so she makes an even better call - Zooming up the President of the Real Housewives Institute, and Sarah's religious deity in the world of Bravo writing, Brian Moylan (President and Founder of the Real Housewives Institute, and author of the New York Times bestseller, "The Housewives: The Real Story Behind The Real Housewives"). They discuss the differences between friendship value systems on Potomac vs Beverly Hills, Candiace's Meghan King Edmonds energy, and the differences in how the network responded to Teresa's guilty plea vs Bravo's potential plans for Jen Shah (let alone the reactions from their respective casts).

Welcome to the AG C-SPAN spectacular, because Rinna is losing her mind online (as opposed to any other day of the week). Sarah spots a widely inappropriate IG story that Rinna posted about Kyle and Paris, and immediately Zooms up her spiritual gummy, and a guide through the madness, content creator Bravo Bravo Ducking Bravo. They unpack Rinna's manipulation of Paris' trauma in order to shame Kathy (apparently other children are not off-limits, unlike Rinna's own), Kyle's problematic description of "clean" microaggressions in her conversation with Crystal, and the ways Candiace's powerful fourth wall breaking on Potomac is miles above the storytelling on Bev Hills.

It's been a weekend of highs (Sarah finally met a certain future husband) and lows (the wedding has not yet taken place), and after 3 full days at BravoCon, she is ready to mention it all! So Sarah invites over her Bravo bestie and fellow BravoCon attendee, and someone who knows a thing or two about mentioning it all, Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pod Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss panel MVPs, the sometimes-fraught audience Q&As, viral BH panel chaos (LOL), WWHL's Legends Ball, and overall roses and thorns.

It's Bravocon weekend (!!), so Sarah preps for the journey to the motherland the best way she knows how: by Zooming up an expert in the fine art of Bravoholic Expressionism, Emerson Collins (actor, producer, nonprofit director, and former cast member on "The People's Couch"). Hot off the Beverly Hills reunion, they discuss remaining questions around what actually happened between Sutton and Crystal, the disconnection in a cast framework of crediting Dorit for courageously protecting her children during a violent act and judging/'correcting' Garcelle and Jax's responses to death threats he received, and why Kyle should consider retiring from her volunteer position as Diana's intention translator.

First, she invites one of her fave guest co-hosts over to the cloff: Erica Cobb (co-host Daily Blast Live, and host of 'Comeback with Erica Cobb,' avail on Ebony Podcast Network). They explore the Wikipedia energy Rinna is using to define the extensive and complex relationship between Kathy and Kyle (bcc: Kim), and an empathetic approach to understanding Meredith's upset on Salt Lake (and the ways Jen seems to factor into multiple gossip-as-fact 'reveals'). Sarah also unpacks the Potomac premiere, including the continuing complications in Ashley and Michael's relationship, and why he seemingly relishes in breaking boundaries and maintaining control.

Turns out the High Holy Days were extended this year, because the RHOBH finale truly renewed Sarah's franchise faith. So she Zooms up her fave spiritual advisor for another important religious holiday (AG's 350th ep!): James LaRosa (writer, producer, director, creator, show runner, and Lisa Rinna's current/future nemesis). They explore the finale's Big Clue Energy on many fronts: the impact of Kyle's active opposition to the Fox Force company line, the cast's struggle between relevancy and truth, and a shocking editing decision/blunder that showed/disappeared a smoking gun reveal.

Sarah gets a sign from above -- BravoTV.com -- that RHOBH needs, née, requires, the deepest possible dive. So she Zooms up on of her fave anthropologists of Housewifery, Fran Tirado (writer, tv/film maker, and host of the pod "Like a Virgin!"). They pour some spiritual Casa Del Sol and have a nuanced kiki about the ways Rinna capitalized on the longstanding fractures between Kathy, Kyle, and Kim, the reasons capitalism may have played a friend-of role in Aspen's aftermath (and different takeaways about the Big Scene), and Meredith's changed views on handling friendship accountability with empathy vs revenge.

Forget Christmas in July, it's Thanksgiving in late September. Sarah delights in the present Bravo has given its community - née, the world - a fantastic premiere ep of RHOSLC. So she Zooms up another gift, her Bravo pal Ryan Bailey (podcaster, "So Bad It's Good with Ryan Bailey" and "What The Kids Are Watching"), to compare and contrast Lisa B and Kathy's 'private' breakdowns with Meredith and Rinna's public response, Rinna's obfuscating work with Kathy (and why Kyle's belated push for a truce may have inspired the opposite), and an epic chapter of AG Theatre looking back at Bethenny's Miami meltdown.

Put down the apples and honey, let's toast the new year right (with Vida tequila and a side of diet coke -- 44oz, easy ice, with lemon, natch). Today's a special ep, in honor of this week’s Salt Lake City season premiere: a chat Sarah and OG of the AG Damian Bellino shared with RHOSLC Lisa Barlow during June's AG Live online show. They discuss Lisa's pre-Housewives work with Bethenny Frankel and Kyle Richards, what Heather got wrong about Lisa's viral "miserable f**ks" tweet, and why the alliance of Heather/Jen/Meredith is so surprising.

Sarah rents Being John Malkovich and imagines a time, a place, a possibility of exploring what went through Rinna's mind from the moment "conga" was suggested through the rest of the night. Despondent that tickets seem to be sold out (much like Rinna herself), she finds answers elsewhere - by having one of her fave guests, comedian and writer Alison Leiby, back to the cloff! They discuss Alison's casting suggestion for the RHONY reboot (a Summer House graduation), Kyle's performative relatability, and whether or not Dorit is more of a 'true believer' about Erika's motivations and behavior than Rinna.

Sarah awakens from a nightmare, where she was trapped underneath the bunk beds at Kyle's Aspen house listening to Lisa Rinna record a voice memo monologue about The Last Night in Aspen (like "Before Midnight," but endless and without artistic merit). She realizes the best solution to a bad night's sleep is a dream ep - recording AG IRL in the cloffice with OG of the AG Damian Bellino (writer, producer, comedian, and co-host of the pod "You Might Know Her From"). They discuss the value system of sisterhood vs strategy between Kyle, Kathy, and Rinna, how to decipher meaning and intention behind endless conspiracy theories about what actually occurred, and what this means for the reunion (let alone the future of the cast).

Sarah watches this week's RHOBH and realizes -- an episode from Season 12 that feels like classic Housewives storytelling? It's a Hanukkah in September miracle! So she lights a cloffice menorah (the propofol candle from Dr. Tiffany Moon), and invites over a Bravoholic with a gift for unpacking plot, Ryan Bloomquist (actor, author, and audience member during Erika Jayne's "Chicago" Broadway run). They discuss the difficulties navigating humility for Erika Jayne and Lea Michele, the difference in how Kyle expresses anger toward her 'spiritual' sister Dorit vs her actual sister, Kathy, and Erika and Rinna's vested interest in exacerbating whatever comes next week. Just like Hanukkah, Sarah will stretch this one solid BH S12 ep into at least 8 hours of sass - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 344JOIN/LEVEL UP TO THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY BONUS EPS, INVITES TO SPECIAL ZOOM EVENTS, AND MORE: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirlsFollow Sarah on social: https://www.instagram.com/damegalli/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Sarah reacts to the Atlanta reunion the best way she knows how: by going to Petco to buy a bone for her fish son, PK (Drew has truly embraced her spiritual Carrot Top, and unlike Teddi Jo, Sarah supports carrots in all forms), and Zooming up a man who knows himself a Housewife-prescribed cease and desist, Evan Real (senior tv reporter at PageSix.com and co-host of Page 6 pod "Virtual Reali-tea" with Danny Murphy). They discuss why Erika's "fake news" defensiveness doesn't translate on reality tv (or IRL), how the currency of Housewives is affected when the show casts already-wealthy and connected figures, and whether Marlo can (and will) move away from job shaming Kandi.

It's the day before the BH reunion, y'all, and there's only one way way to celebrate the occasion (that this season is almost done!!). So Sarah invites one of her fave co-hosts back to the cloff, the supreme ruler of culture, Matt Rogers (comedian, actor, writer, podcaster, and television host, whose credits include Showtime's "I Love That For You," the feature film "Fire Island," and the pod Las Culturistas with Bowen Yang. They deep dive Matt's evolution on Kyle, what he believes happened (and didn't) in Aspen, and the difference between morality and legality in defending Erika Jayne.

Sarah's riding high off of an Atlanta finale ep that was, heaven forbid, fun (remember fun franchises? Bless). Overjoyed with content that doesn't involve "c" words (aside from "c'mon Sheree, you can do this") she welcomes opens up the cloffice to a Bravo commentator with things to say: Rafi D'Angelo (Bravoholic and former political commentator). They deep dive Rafi's enjoyment over Dubai's first season (and whether Chanel Ayan can avoid the 2nd season curse), why Housewives orientation likely worsened Diana's time on BH, and how vulnerable insights into Marlo's childhood help explain her behavior with Kandi.

Sarah realizes it's Wednesday PM, time to watch Entertainment Tonight (no, not RHOBH. Shudder. Shudder to think this is entertainment). She realizes after another very dark and problematic ep of BH, that a bit of TLC (tender loving content) is in order. So she Zooms up ET's own chief Housewives correspondent (and a man who majored in nuance at Housewives U), Brice Sander. They explore whether the Fox Force will ever 'allow' Sutton a seat at the table, the difficulty of expecting nuanced reactions from a Housewives audience but not its cast, and why it can be helpful to hold off on judgement for a new franchise's premiere season.

After another few days in the wilds of RHOBH discourse online (it's toxic and it's loud, and there's almost no escape), Sarah realizes she needs to go to a place of Zen, of long-form analysis and bagel influence, an AG kiki with Kiki Monique aka @TheTalkofShame (professional talker, social media journalist, CEO of deep dives, and host of the podcast I'm Sorry with Lemonada Media). They react Lisa Rinna's wild accusations on IG about who was behind the attack (Kathy Hilton, LVP, and her own show's producer have all been targets of Rinna this week), Erika's still-suspended discovery phase of finding out Tom is - spoiler alert- not great, an important missing piece in Apollo's conversation about Phaedra.

Someone is very morally corrupt. Sarah is joined by IG investigative creator @BravoBravoDuckingBravo, for an exhaustive deep dive on the shocking online attacks against RHOBH Garcelle Beauvais' 14-year-old son, Jax. They answer questions about what happened (Why do so many people believe this was a coordinated attack? What's a bot farm? And what is the connection between comments aimed at Jax and what's been said recently by the cast?), and discuss what this means for Garcelle's future on the show, and how this could and should impact the upcoming reunion.

Sarah realizes the Housewives universe would be a great fit for a comic book series (starting with Shannon Beador, whose superhero skill would be placing 9 lemons in a bowl to achieve world peace). So she Zooms up her fave Housewives/comic book savant, Kendrick Tucker (host, "Reality and Comics Too"). They explore the importance of villains who truly drive story forward (Marlo, take note), respecting foes who push favorites to do their best work (Kenya on both sides), and the difference between 'oversensitive' fans vs those wanting to hold Rinna accountable.

So she assembles an all-mighty Zoom with writers, editors, and Housewives dramaturgical society co-presidents, Kevin Fallon (senior entertainment editor, The Daily Beast) and Louis Peitzman. This dream team trio deep dives how Lisa Rinna's perception of grief as a permission slip is landing differently in reality, the connective thread of childhood trauma in Chanel Ayan's story (and why other aspects of storytelling on Dubai are helping a troubling narrative with its government), and whether simply being provocative is enough to hold a full-time peach (sorry, Marlo).

So she Zooms up one of her fave laugh connoisseurs, Daniel Stokes (culture programs lead at Brex, and co-host of the new pod Thots and Prayers). They unpack whether Dr. Heavenly is overstepping as a friend (and cast member) by disparaging Dr. Contessa's marriage online, why Rinna's alliance stays quiet when she gets absurdly loud, and the importance of holding personal-fave Housewives to account (bcc: Kyle).

So she Zooms up one of her fave content creators and podcasters, Vanessa from @RealMomsofBravo, for a nuanced convo about the ways Crystal could potentially use the construct of Housewives and 'friendship' to apply pressure to the Fox Force, how Kyle has been given a pass to produce conflict by the cast but not the audience, and why Atlanta is delivering on engagement while BH feels like Real Housewives of Deflection.

So she Zooms up Veronica Leventhal, an expert in the field - she works as a forensic social worker in juvenile justice! - to litigate some juvenile behaviors on Housewives. They explore the connective thread on Beverly Hills and Atlanta around possibly-misdirected expressions of anger, the ways Kyle's self-producing with Sutton has produced a spiritual and literal villain edit, and the missing component in Ralph's book journey (his wife's voice in their marriage).

Sarah emulates Big Carole Energy - having 5 last good summers and oh yes LOL being a writer girl - after her first article is published in the Daily Beast. About, what else, RHOBH. And who better to celebrate her published rage spiral than one of her fave content creators, Richie Skye. They discuss the troubling positioning of Crystal's ED as conversation without her active participation and consent, why Kye's refusal - or inability - to stand on her own is keeping her from being a true center diamond, and what the cast wants to actively hide by calling Sutton a liability.

Graeter (aka Petshopboy and host of the podcast The B List) to discuss Taylor's historic transfer from BH to OC (and the surprising decision to have her join as a friend-of), why the Twitterverse is turned off by Marlo, and what Kandi and Todd get right about honesty and support (bcc: Drew and Ralph).

Sarah is dismayed to realize that no matter how hard she hopes, it is *still* not yet BravoCon weekend (doesn't time understand how badly she wants to turtle?). So she Zooms up one of her fave parts of the 2019 BravoCon extravaganza, a man who could give a master class in how to discuss delicate matters about Housewifery panels with expert skill, Evan Real (senior tv reporter at PageSix.com and co-host of Page 6's new pod "Virtual Reali-Tea). After receiving confirmation that, yes, Evan's name did inspire Simon van Kempen's iconic musical hit (not really, but..spiritually), they explore the endearing quality of OG thirst, why Heather should be concerned with Tamra's media "amuse bouche," the ways that Kyle's inability to identify Erika's concerning behavior may be connected to her dynamics with Kim, and what's behind a lack of sensitivity about Crystal's eating disorder. Sarah's trigger is Bravo's use of "to be continued," so ya know, listen to this ep in full or murmur that to yourself when you press pause - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 330!

So Sarah Zooms up Damian Bellino (writer, producer, co-host of the pod "You Might Know Her From," and RHOA dramaturg) for an Atlanta deep dive. Because let's keep it real, BH has gotten a lot of time on AG of late. But the new RHOA - unlike gem mining - has a lot to explore. Sarah and Damian discuss the connective thread between Marlo and Kenya's childhood trauma and abandonment to how they handle conflict and triggers as adults, why selective silence is not a neutral action (and can often provoke a heightened response), and, of course, Drew's Carrot Top Energy.

After her 75 messages go unanswered (has to be a tech issue! Silly 'net), Sarah Zooms up her other fave Bravo bestie, and OG of the AG, Damian Bellino (writer, producer, and cohost of the pod "You Might Know Her From").

They sit down in the cloffice (spiritually - thanks, Zoom) and explore what Lisa Wu's cameo on Atlanta reveals about the difficulty of repositioning a return Housewife, the pressure of Housewives monetization that lurks underneath Dorinda's hostess stress, and whether to consider Rinna's social media anger toward editors as a nuanced (and possibly strategic) exploration of grief.
