Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

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. Sarah may have gotten spiritual hives from BH, but luckily Potomac and Salt Lake are the perfect antidote (as might this deep dive) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 352!JOIN/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 downs a few mini tacos - likely not meant for human consumption - after opening the invite for Karen's Spring into Spring Kickoff/Celebration of Life Taco Party Event Because Let's Have Some FabFitFunBox-y Times OK Great, and celebrates the Potomac premiere the best way she knows how - with a supersized AG event! 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. Potomac is back, and so is the elusive chanteuse (Sarah's cackle over two+ hours) - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 351!JOIN/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.

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. Beverly Hills gave extra razzle dazzle, and so does this deep dive - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 350!JOIN/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 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. Fran can't tell Kendall or Kylie apart, but this convo stands out from the rest - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 349!JOIN/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.

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. Yes, Sarah screeches when John Barlow says hi, it's the only sensible reaction - and it's Andy's Girls, Episode 347!JOIN/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 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. PK may not love this ep, but Sarah loves him regardless - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 346!JOIN/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 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.

Sarah watches one of the Avengers movies (no she doesn't), and realizes it's time to regroup with AG's #writergirl super panel. 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).

Sarah watches the latest Married to Medicine and realizes there's no high quite like a Dr. Simone inspired cackle. 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).

Sarah takes her baby boy PK Kemsley to his fish pediatrician for a check up (aka staring at his tank and blowing him a kiss) and realizes what they both need is a Bravoholic check in. 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.

Sarah realizes the Bravo universe needs a People's People's Court, a space dedicated to the pursuit of justice from one Bravoholic to the next. 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.

Taylor Armstrong is a Housewife once more - kinda - so Sarah has to celebrate with one of her fave friends-of! So she Zooms up B. 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!

After recording last week's AG Classic (editor voice: 30 min later) and AG Patreon (editor voice: 60 min later), Sarah realizes that she must take the pod triple crown (editor voice: 90 min later) with a record-breaking OG of the AG three! 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 deep dive the the difference between crossing lines in Atlanta and crossing boundaries in Beverly Hills, the restorative power of a production pause for Sheree and Tamra (Dorinda, take note), and the value of a RHONY Legacy narrative that includes mother/daughter dynamics.

Recently blocked by Lisa Rinna (some people just prefer matte over gloss), Sarah consoles herself with another iconic lip kit (childhood Lipsmackers at CVS), and deep diving with a fellow survivor of Rinna's blocking rampage, IG creator/investigator @BravoBravoDuckingBravo. 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.

Thrilled with such a historic find (it's both worthless AND empty! Much like Rinna on social), Sarah runs back to the cloffice to kiki with her fave expert witness, and Bravo bestie, Dylan Hafer (manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pods Pop Alarm and Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss Andy's reaction to Jen's guilty plea and the likely whiplash energy of Salt Lake City S3, the problems with Diana's anti-improv instincts in her battle against Sutton, and what Caroline Brooks' dinner theatre performance has in common with Cherry Jones' role on Succession.

Sarah hears breaking news about Jen Shah's change of plea and races to the best place to mention it all, the Real Housewives Institute Reality Television Arts and Sciences study hall Zoom (admission: intelligence, je ne sais quoi/chic c'est la vie, and Dame as your honorific), where she meets up with the man, the myth, the legend, Dame Brian Moylan (author of the New York Times bestseller "The Housewives: The Real Story About Real Housewives," now out in paperback, creator of Vulture's Housewives Institute bulletin newsletter, and Sarah's personal lord and savior including when they scream at each other about Erika and Kyle). Dames Moylan and Galli react to Jen's shocking guilty plea and the reasons people with the most to hide choose to live their lives on camera, why alcohol is not an excuse for boundary crossing (and apologies), and yes, an intense exploration of the Fox Force Four's idea of selective accountability and silence.

Sarah realizes an additional side effect of her 3mg of nightly sleep aid is the nightmare of watching advance clips of this week's RHOBH days before the ep. She comforts herself - and her emotionally-exhausted state - the best way she knows how, by Zooming up one of her fave content creators, and a teller of truths, Samantha Bush (staff writer, The Dipp, creator of @BravoHistorian, and host of the pod 'Hot Off The Mess'). They discuss the ways Kyle stumbles trying to be Johnny Carson when she's really Ed McMahon, the Fox Force's confusing spin of Erica's inappropriate boundary crossing, and why Girls Trip could truly be renamed "Dorinda in the Shadows."

Sarah reads Diana's viral-in-all-the-worst-ways "Dear Garcelle" post on IG and immediately goes to her safe space (carbs and Hulu Plus). Feeling a spiritual triage is in order, she Zooms up one of her fave truth tellers and Bravoholics, a 4-time Olympian in mentioning it all, Erica Cobb (co-host, Daily Blast Live, host, 'Comeback with Erica Cobb,' available on Ebony Podcast Network). They explore what's really behind Diana's deep seated anger against Garcelle, Lisa Rinna's inflexibility of thought, and what Dorinda's 'banana bread muffin with a dash of sadism' brunch says about her instinct to punish when she reacts.

Sarah puts on a knitted pussy hat she purloined from Carole's mom at the DC Women's March (what, they were all aglow with lady patriotism, and Sarah wanted RHONY swag), and decides a Bechdel test-approved episode is most certainly in order. So she Zooms up a writer girl featured on last week's BH, Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, host of the podcast Pot Psychology, proprietor of pipedreams.fun, and bee/cucumber truther). They discuss the ways that alcohol has been used as an invitation to escalate on Girl's Trip and underplay on Bev Hills, a coastal war over Housewife intellectual acumen, and Tracie's continued confusion over Diana's 'coffee table book' years after her viral Jezebel piece.

Sarah wakes up to another day in hell aka America aka seasons 15 and 13 of OC and NY. She turns to the only safe space that will distract her from the news cycle: the new season of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Ex Wives Club (it rolls off the tongue!). She Zooms up one of her Bravo besties, the multi-hyphenate James LaRosa (creator, writer, director, show runner, and ultimate truth teller about what to do when Vicki says "hi"), for a wide ranging convo about RHUGT, including whether being challenged is Dorinda's ultimate trigger, Brandi's unwillingness to choose personal growth, and the cancel culture that surrounds Sarah's reaction to Jill's Scary Island-inspired entry to the show.

It's Pride Month, and there's no better way to celebrate than asking one of Sarah's Bravo besties, journalist and drag queen Ryan Houlihan, over to her rainbow-colored cloffice, where the LGBTQIA+ and ally communities meet weekly to bemoan the entirety of Lisa Rinna (bringing people together! It's what she's known for best).

Sarah watches the new BH and realizes the entire ep is based on the beginning of a Jeopardy response: "who is/what is/where am I." Completely flustered by a confluence of inconsistency that is now leading to chaos, she immediately invites one of her fave Bravoholic/workaholic pals to the cloffice, Christine Biancavilla, for a deep dive of who/what/where/when/why. They explore the intention behind Crystal's apology, why some cast members get the benefit of the doubt while others do not, and Erika's warped sense of "girl power."

Sarah films a 15-min Youtube influencer-style apology, atoning to RHOA for not giving it the PROPER POD TIME it DESERVES. She shows her appreciation the best way she knows how, by inviting one of Marlo's sassiest superfans over to the cloffice, Gibson Johns (host of In The Know's podcast "We Should Talk"). They discuss whether or not Marlo is referencing second season curse energies in her tension with Kandi and Kenya, how Sheree's relationship with Tyrone speaks to the larger question around boundaries and power in unbalanced dating dynamics, and what the reunion may reveal about Ralph (if he shows up).

Sarah discovers that Bravo has announced a new show about young Americans in Paris, and immediately begins a one-woman-strike of Bravo content (c'est lol) to secure a role on S2, until she realizes that the second best impact is to, ya know, double down on RHOBH. So she Zooms up a Bravo pal with a French-sounding handle (c'est bon c'est bon!), Priscilla from @BonjourBitchesBlog and the merch shop @feministcringe. They unpack the ways that social media, WWHL reveals, and alliances are impacting and confusing on-camera storylines, the tension between potentially ignoring problematic behavior and potentially hiding problematic footage, and the secondhand embarrassment of Erika's ongoing attempts to paint herself as a victim of Sutton's honesty. Bravo likely has the footage that would put Tahoe-gate to rest, and it's prob locked in the same production closet as that boat ride in Cartagena - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 317!$15 TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR ANDY'S GIRLS: LIVE FROM THE CLOFFICE, AG's first-ever virtual show, on Thursday, 6/23, at 8:30pm EST.

Order in the Court! (not so quickly, Kam). Sarah invites one of her fave social media journalists to adjudicate a wild week of Housewives for the People's People's Court, none other than Kiki Monique aka @TheTalkofShame (professional talker, CEO of deep dives, and host of the podcast I'm Sorry with Lemonada Media). They pregame their hopes about covering Jen Shah's upcoming...federal spinoff, and explore getting to the root of mistrust and adultery on Housewives, and whether reality tv can push forth radical honesty, the ways Drew's business model may be closer to Sonja Morgan's toasters than All In, and the reasons Teddi has replaced Danielle as Sarah's #1 Housewives trigger (a baby carrot minus the carrot, need she say more/absolutely).

Hot off the heels of Dubai's scorching premiere, Sarah cools off the best way she knows how: by Amazon Priming a $12 ice cub tray she'll throw in her shower (just like the new Real Housewives!), and inviting one of her Bravo besties over to the cloff: The Caroline Brooks to her Caroline Stanbury (aka also Caroline Brooks), Dylan Hafer (manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pods Pop Alarm and Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They throw on some sunglasses indoors, and explore Dylan's reaction to the choice of Dubai as a LGBTQ content creator, Erika's false equivalency of 'bad friendship' according to herself vs Sutton, and the multifaceted and complicated reaction to "problematic" storylines.

They explore Bravo's inconsistent history of casting research (and what, if anything, Jenny's social media has done to shift a Housewife's interview process), the sensitive nature discussing Dubai's franchise location pick, and what Lisa Rinna appears to gets right about seeking excitement from doing harm (super villains united, says Erika Jayne).

It's an Andy's Girls triage episode spectacular! Sarah nearly dies (and no, not just because tickets aren't yet on sale for Bravocon) and celebrates the second coming of pulsating sass the best way she knows how - by Zooming up one of her Bravo BFFs, news and entertainment journalist and pop culture expert, Richie Skye. They explore the disconcerting future of Beverly Hills friendships thanks to an overwhelming Fox Force, why Erika Jayne's play for victimhood against Sutton is a race to the bottom of the entertainment barrel, and what Kyle gets wrong about empathy (and age).

Sarah buys a table at Elton John's favorite Starbucks on La Brea (what? that's not the same thing as seats at a gala?), and messages Lisa and Harry to fill two seats. After being informed Rinna already reserved standing-room-only at the Dunkin Donuts in Brentwood, Sarah calls up one of her fave venti spillers of tea, a man who loves to share his AG Q2 quarterly report, Emerson Collins (actor, producer, director, and star of "The People's Couch"). They Zoom-sit on the People's People's Couch and explore Teresa's inability to process forgiveness as anything but as a sign of weakness, the hypocrisy surrounding Kyle and Sutton's conversation about empathy for Dorit, and Erika's misdirected rage.

They discuss a sociological study of Tre standom, valuing conflict engagement vs personal high-stakes storylines, and the differences between a Househusband's passive discomfort with production vs active disinterest in marriage (paging Lenny Hochstein).

In celebration, Sarah buys a child's admission ticket (Ageless by Ramona, ammiright) to the Real Housewives Institute, in order to mention it all with its founder and president (and New York Times bestselling author) Brian Moylan. Just a couple of dames, disagreeing about Erika Jayne.

Sarah watches the effervescent Atlanta season premiere, and celebrates what looks like a fantastic season the best way she knows how - by sending Marlo's billionaire beau a 9 bajillion Venmo request, and using a portion of the funds to buy Marlo a company name that works in French. She realizes she has a few bajillion left to spare, and flies herself on Louie's (imaginary) tantrum PJ to Zoom in the clouds with one of her fave return guests, Michael Arceneaux (New York Times best-selling author of "I Can't Date Jesus" and its follow-up "I Don't Want to Die Poor." They discuss the job of an editor versus therapist when it comes to Teresa's explosive defensiveness, whether Kenya has passed the 'villain' baton to Marlo (and why Sanya's winning the race of being a terrific addition to the cast), and the difference between present vs past tense with regard to how Marlo vs Sonja present wealth.

Sarah (allegedly) watches part 2 of the OC reunion and thinks, ya know what I need right now, more than anything? Entertainment! Tonight! So she settles into the cloffice and Zooms up her fave Bravoholic from ET HQ, Brice Sander. They explore questions of emotional capacity that Erika Jayne and Teresa may share, the psychology behind Housewife fandoms (and why it's so often connected with a need for validation from their favored star), the difficulty when nuances are removed from "good vs evil" Housewife archetypes, and why Noella is a prime example of why the riskiest casting decision might be a Housewife who doesn't know who she is.

They discuss the influence Heather and Teresa have over production (and why one is winning the edit battle while the other quasi-flails), the differences between Teresa and Nene's disconnections from their respective casts, and whether Marg has regret for considering Teresa a woman capable of friendship trust.
