Andy's Girls: A Real Housewives Podcast

It's a post-Sarah-had-COVID spectacular! Sarah awakens from her 'think positive and test negative until you test positive and think negative' viral slumber (filled with dreams of her romping about with Archie Beador), for a sure-to-go-viral AG kiki with America's Sweetheart, and top two contender for fave OG of the AG, Damian Bellino (writer, producer, and co-host of the pod "You Might Know Her From"). They sit on the People's People's (Zoom) Couch for a post-quarantine catchup about the cost of fame (and family) upon joining Housewives (and Jen's gamble on both counts), the ways that the universal Housewives storyline of 'fraudulent' marriages/friendships has been impeded by financial/criminal enterprise (and what Miami's blockbuster reboot says about a possible return to form), and what Noella's already-complicated entry to the show means for her future on OC. Drinking game alert: have a chug of Mucinex every time Sarah whispers, 'I had COVID,' especially as she's yelping about Shan - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 276! Sarah says it's 277, but...she had COVID (everybody: drink).JOIN/LEVEL UP TO THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO THE AG LIVE FULL EPISODE, BONUS EPS, INVITES TO SPECIAL ZOOM EVENTS, AND MORE: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirls Learn more about your ad choices.

Ho ho ho, did Erika know? With Christmas rapidly approaching (or as Sarah calls it, the National Day of Self-Gifting thankyousomuchHanukkahHarryandalsoMastercard), Sarah welcomes back a true holiday treat - no, not a beachside vacay with Archie and Shan - an open and vulnerable convo about Housewives psych with Vox senior editor, Rachel Miller (author, "The Art of Showing Up: How to Be There for Yourself and Your People"). They discuss RHONY's potentially homoerotic sensibilities examined through a queer lens, the difference between representation and expression, and Mary and Jen's binding standards for 'true' friendship on Salt Lake City.

Excited for another holiday season spending time with her loved ones (RHONY seasons 8-11), Sarah Zooms up another blessed event - a kiki with one of her fave outspoken content creators, and a temporary/ep specific Stan for Shan (more of a sympathizer, but Sarah will take it in any form), Christian Gray Snow (podcast host, Slut Pig Podcast and creator of the Slut Pig Shop). They discuss a possible formulation behind why certain Bravolebs become personal faves, whether Heather and Shannon are the "oil and vinegar" of OC (thanks, Tre), and Alexia's possibly-surprising star turn on the Miami reboot. Heather might be the low key villain, but that's just because she hasn't mailed Sarah some Colette - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 274!JOIN/LEVEL UP TO THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO THE AG LIVE FULL EPISODE, BONUS EPS, INVITES TO SPECIAL ZOOM EVENTS, AND MORE: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirls Learn more about your ad choices.

Sarah signs up for family therapy, after sending Shannon a cameo request that included the requested copy "please agree that we're family" and "so...lunch?" Thrilled after Shan sends a 9 minute video of Archie napping instead, she Zooms up another Bravoholic with ties to the OC, Veronica Leventhal (Bravoholic fan who works in forensics social work and criminal justice). They discuss Veronica's journey from a Bravo viewer to someone discussed by members of the OC cast, whether or not NY can re-set as successfully as Orange County (and the changing valuation around polarizing personalities), the ripple effect trauma of Jen's arrest, and whether Shan stirs the pot, or steps in it.

Invigorated by a refreshing, delightful, dramatic, and surprising turn on Orange County - meaning of course, Shannon's high pony accoutrement - Sarah books an appt with whichever stylist Dr. Moon says is best for her mind, and Zooms up an iconic truth teller of all things Madame Storms Beador, and a man who knows himself a People's People's Couch: actor, producer, director, and "People's Couch" star, Emerson Collins. They discuss how Shannon would fare as a Myers Briggs personality type for Housewives, the surprising role reversal during Shane and Emily's nuanced conversation about faith, and why Lisa Barlow is a community theatre LVP.

Sarah hops a PJ to Vail, excited to infuriate Mary long enough to receive a Chanel wardrobe, until her captain says they don't have enough pre-paid gas to cross Laguardia. After offering to eat dairy to no avail, she heads back to the People's People's Couch for a spiritual snow day (not so fast, ladies night at Beautique) with one of her fave authors and Bravoholics, Gabrielle Bluestone (Emmy-nominated producer of Netflix's Fyre documentary and author of HYPE: How Scammers, Grifters, and Con Artists are Taking Over the Internet - and Why We're Following). They discuss the difference between 'facts' and proof in Meredith's mind, friendship as the ultimate Housewives grift, and a 1950s social experiment that helps explain Housewives' strategic majority rule.

Sarah celebrates another night of Hanukkah by opening the greatest gift of all - the premiere episode of Orange County, welcoming back fellow menorah holder and homeowner of what looks like a 750 room mega-sized Ritz Carlton in Aspen, Heather Dubrow (we are truly blessed). And who better to unpack such a porte cochère covered present, than one of Sarah's favorite people and guests - Brian Moylan, President and Founder of the Real Housewives Institute, New York Times bestselling author ("The Housewives: The Real Story Behind the Real Housewives"), contributor on the recent ABC News/Hulu doc about Jen Shah, and host of The Dipp's holiday podcast, "The Twelve Gays of Christmas." Agreeing to disagree on 107% of the topics discussed (a new goal on the pod!), they explore lessons Porsha and Kyle could learn about post-Housewives generational success by way of Nene and Bethenny's examples, what the current Renaissance period for Housewives means for its future, and what - if any - responsibility the network and its audience share for combining entertainment with unfolding criminal case storylines.

Sarah drives to Chateau salon in Franklin Lakes, excited to meet Santa Claus during his "Cop Without a Badge" book signing. After discovering the spa is out of books, tables, and with a 'discerning' 'friend' of 'Danielle' outside, Sarah high tails it back to NYC and the security blanket of a true Bravo stan - Justin Anderson (celebrity colorist, co-founder of the haircare brand dpHUE, and co-star on Very Cavallari). They discuss perception vs. reality on reality tv, the difficulty in the Bravo community of disagreeing without disemboweling, and why Erika Jayne's pre-RHOBH nickname was "7-Eleven."

Sarah celebrates Thanksgiving the best way she knows how - by adorning a Sassgiving shrine to Shan (9 lemons in a bowl and a gravy boat filled with chaos), and welcoming her spiritual BFF back to the People's People's Couch. She is joined by Richie Skye (entertainment journalist and pop culture expert) as they discuss vulnerabilities on and off podcasts, the difference between story and storylines, and the complex narrative around colorism and accountability on Potomac.

Sarah engages in some cheater brand biz against Ramona Singer, Inc - DESERVED - and trademarks "new beginnings" to best encapsulate her thoughts about a prestige week for Housewives content. Ramotional now more than ever, she Zooms up a return guest to the People's People's Couch, and honorary PhD in Potomac in Salt Lake City, Joel Kim Booster (actor, comedian, writer, and Bassett Hound). They discuss the difference between denial and silence regarding Jen vs Mary's 'creative cash flows,' whether Lisa's efforts to discuss Mary's church have been influenced by last season's Bad Weather, and why one of Andy's questions to Candiace should have also been asked of a certain BH Housewife.

Sarah draws herself a bath, Meredith Marks style (fully pruned after 6 hours of waiting for camera crews). She realizes her personality is bubbly enough without some extra suds, and realizes what she really needs is a shower of insight (go with it). So she Zooms up one of her all-time faves, writer, podcaster (Shut Up Evan, Drop Your Buffs), Gizelle Bryant historian, and the Doris Kearns Goodwin of Bravo, Evan Ross Katz. They discuss the ways Candiace is viewed more harshly in the eyes of the public and less harshly in the eyes of her mind, where Meredith's reaction to Jen's shocking arrest lands on the performative/iconique spectrum, and Evan shares a voice note from an Emmy-winning Bravoholic celeb about the fashion on Salt Lake.

After anxiously checking on her beloved fish son PK - perhaps he caught internal bleeding from Jen's imagination - Sarah calls 411 to glean as much Shahking information as she can from a historic and Shahmazing episode of SLC. And who answers her Bravo bat call but Sarah's fave Bravoholic BFF, a bubble bath for the soul, a multimillion dollar Vail promotional consideration kind of pal, and someone who would never need to steal an $800 green clutch from Meredith's store because his takes make you green with envy (s/o RHONJ!), Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pods Pop Alarm and Mention It All, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss the tension between Meredith's engagement on all things Jen Shah vs rumors about Mary's church, what Jen's shocking participation in the after show says about her strategy off camera, and the ways that Salt Lake is playing against type (aka Erika Jayne).

Feelin Jovani and also Pat Kiernan, Sarah goes to read the daily papers, and realizes that there are only so many times she can start a trial subscription for Sutton Stracke Presents the LA Times. Inspired by some fantastic long form pieces on Erika Jayne written by today's guests (Andy agrees!), Sarah Zooms up noted Housewives historians Kevin Fallon (senior entertainment reporter, The Daily Beast) and Louis Peitzman (Vulture, among others) for a wide ranging and very deep dive convo of all things Erika Jayne. They discuss what Andy's surprising reaction to Erika Jayne critique says about managing Erika and the audience on-and-off camera, the differences between how Erika and Candiace's outbursts are critiqued by their respective casts, and the troubling pattern of rewarding bad behavior with regard to Housewives and alleged crime.

Realizing her DVR likely has internal bleeding after the sonic boom level screeching Sarah uttered during the last 10 min of SLC, she calls up her spiritual Homeland Security advisor (more for the heart than federal gov), Potomac super stan, and OG of the AG, Damian Bellino (writer, producer, co-host of the podcast You Might Know Her From). They discuss the differences between a subject vs. object Housewife, the potentially difficult translation when a Bravoholic becomes a Bravoleb, and what Andy got right about Candiace's inability to account for her problematic behavior.

Sarah hits the comedy circuit in NYC, excited to discover more laughable reasons Bravo may keep Ramona. In between sets by famed comedians Sonja Morgan and Joe Gorga, she runs into a true stand up icon: comedian and co-host of the pod Ruined, Alison Leiby. They discuss the presumption of innocence Erika is demanding while in turn refusing to extend to Tom's victims, opposing views on the impact of Kyle Richards' production power, and 3-6 seconds on Salt Lake.

Sarah hears about the newest Housewives franchise, and attempts to sign up for a nonexistent Bravo Amazing Race, in order to potentially fly over filming in Dubai. Undeterred after both corporate and Visa debit tell her this is non negosh, she jets to her other happy place instead - a discussion of MVP Housewives with the hosts of the pod "Come Thru Queen," Dan Calabrese and Brendan Davis. They explore the market value of Kyle Richards, star of screen and screen (ya know, movies and tv), why Dan and Brendan's picks for the top 10 most valuable Housewives include erasure of some historic OGs, and whether or not Jennie and Duy's disconcerting conversations about expanding their family may have been influenced by an increased need for storyline behind the scenes.

Distraught over news of Dorit's upsetting break-in, Sarah blocks Edwin's phone number (...kidding) and hides in her shoes (it's a joke, Teddi. The vitamins in carrots add humor). Feeling the need to find comfort on the People's People's Couch, Sarah Zooms up Youtuber - and former TomTom employee! - Adam Coy Newell. They explore the nuanced navigation writing about Housewives, the connection between performative wealth and Kim Kardashian and Dorit's deeply troubling robberies, and an exclusive clip from the AG Live special ep, featuring a chat with Dallas Housewife Dr. Tiffany Moon.

Absolutely feeling Zen Wen after the sold-out Andy's Girls Live (ep coming next week!), Sarah wraps Bravoholic Appreciation Week the best way she knows how - with two of her absolute fave Bravo content creators, Abby and Vanessa from the pod and IG account Real Moms of Bravo. They discuss what Rinna's reaction to Amelia and Scott's breakup says about her capacity for non-performative personal storylines, the ways Erika's reaction to Tom's crimes is more about her 'hope' than 'belief,' and whether Candiace's delayed-empathy about Mia's childhood is really a next-gen echo of her mom.

With Andy's Girls Live nearly here (someone cue "One More Day" from Les Misérables aka RHONY) along with the start of Bravoholic Appreciation Week, and having just rewatched the excellent start to the RHOBH reunion, Sarah works on her breathing exercises ("less Girardi, less Jayne"), and calls up her fave breath of fresh air, actor and writer for theGrio, Jared Alexander. They unpack the sacrificial lamb-style friendship contract that everyone in the cast seems to want Garcelle and Sutton to sign, Dorit's fascinating performance as a woman scorned (by...reality tv rules of engagement?), and Erika's interest in closing the chapter to a book at its start.

Sarah watches the new Potomac and immediately Venmos her therapist a bonus since the only topics she plans to discuss concern Candiace, Mia, and their moms. After being told said therapist doesn't watch Bravo and prefers something called 'magazines,' Sarah immediately blocks her, buys shoes, and Zooms up Bravoholic bliss: a Potomac-heavy AG kiki with Team Monique whisperer, Danielle Prescod (author, podcast host, and DEI consultant). They explore the many layers navigating Candiace's sensitivity training ('don't have none, won't be none'), Wendy's work ascending the Housewives Inc corporate ladder one single-wicked candle at a time, and what the women of Salt Lake City understand about independent streams of income for independent women.

Sarah celebrates Chinese New Year (the year of the ox and also cackle), by watching the RHOBH finale and per Crystal's counsel, waiting to take out the trash (Tom). Instead, she Zooms up one of her fave Bravoholic institutions, and Lisa Rinna's spiritual nemesis, Ryan Bailey (host, So Bad It's Good with Ryan Bailey). They continue this week's pod swap - make sure to listen to P1 on his show! - by discussing the ways that the RHOBH audience resembles virtual reality, if Rinna can ever come back from her role as Erika's primary consigliere, and what Sutton has taught the other women about creating and maintaining boundaries, no matter what.

Spiritually still in LA, land of dreamers and Kyle and Kim, Sarah hops on a trolley Kathy originally bought for Paris and Nicky as a joke, and takes in the CA sights (TomTom, Pump, the dried carcass of what once lived Villa Blanca), before Zooming up her fave podcast whisperer, Ryan Houlihan (senior gaming editor, inputmag.com). They discuss the joie de vivre that is Meredith Marks' magical mystery tour, the losing gamble Lisa played introducing a real-life pal as an on-camera friend-of, and whether Candiace is immune to understanding low blows because of her lower-blow relationship with her therapist mom.

Sarah jets to the City of Angels (hi Sutton and Garcelle!) for a few days of R&R (rewatch and repeat). She checks in at the historic setting of Pantygate - the Sofitel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills - and meets up with LA resident and RHOBH linguist, James LaRosa (multi-hyphenated writer, director, and showrunner). They explore the ways the Fox Force Whomever may further punish Sutton for being in the audience's favor, whether Never Have I Ever was an idea 'stolen' by production (and Rinna's interest in exploiting Garcelle's first Q, regardless), and why Dorit may need to learn a 5th language (taking responsibility for saying dumb ish).

En route to LA to get Lisa Rinna's friendship bracelet surgically removed, Sarah watches the Potomac Reasonably Shady ep and realizes the only thing unreasonable would be missing the chance to unpack this perfect scene. She Zooms up one of her fave IG content creators - a Bravo investigative translator like no other - @BravoBravoDuckingBravo. They discuss the ways that Askala and Mia are further strengthening the Potomac playing field (while turning on each other), the ways that Rinna is strategically refusing to take accountability for anything but being the 'perfect' friend (to Erika alone), and whether the Fox Force Yada could ever split their majority vote.

Inspired by Big BravoCon Energy - and a VERY exciting announcement at the end of this ep! - Sarah heads over to the Regency for an AG kiki with her Bravoholic BFF. She watches the day's View en route, and decides if emergency Zoom is good enough for Joy and the VP, it's good enough for the OGs of the AG! Separated by neighborhoods and some opinions on BH, Sarah is joined by Damian Bellino (comedian, co-host of the podcast You Might Know Her From), for a double ep's worth of convo about Erika Jayne. They discuss the ways that Erika deigns to discuss family matters when in service to an empathetic narrative arc, the impact of groupthink with the Fox Force Yada plus Crystal vs Sutton and Garcelle, and the "unsavory" idea of choosing friendship with a falsehood. Sarah and Damian are going live in October, someone save a row for the Dame's cackle - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 252!

Sarah attempts to reserve an orchestra seat at Jen Shah's upcoming trial, until she's told there are no advance sales aside of TKTS. Sarah immediately hires a Task Rabbit to wait in line until March (Kim K. better be on the defense during sweeps), and Zooms up her favorite legal commentator, former prosecutor. and host of The Emily Show, Emily D. Baker. They sit on the spiritual People's People's (Court's) Couch, and discuss the many complexities inherent in Erika's latest car accident reveal, the tension inherent in demanding trust without providing it, what Bethenny's viral scoop on Erika tells us about 'who knew' inside the network, and why Jen may be reveling in the federal court version of 'there's no such thing as bad press.' PK is the voice of reason, and this convo adds more than a dash of sass - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 251!

It's the Andy's Girls 250th episode extravaganza!!!! And in order to celebrate, Sarah eschews the 25th anniv symbol(in the words of Scheana Shay, this pod is good as gold, not silver), and Zooms up her fave glistening diamond, and Bravo bestie, Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the pods Pop Alarm and Mention It All, and creator of @bravobybetches). They discuss the absolutely extraordinary premiere of Salt Lake City, and the fascinating ways to reevaluate Jen Shah's performative nature in light of her federal charges, whether or not a Gizelle/Karen stalemate can ever stay fresh, and their predictions for the upcoming BH reunion (which doesn't bode well for the People vs Lisa Rinna).

Sarah sneaks into the Beverly Hills reunion disguised as one of Kathy Hilton's puppies/fur stoles. After running away as fast as she can from Lisa "Erika said what? oh look a dog" Rinna, she trots on back to the People's People's Couch for an epic double ep kiki with Erica Cobb, co-host of "Daily Blast Live," host of "Comeback with Erica Cobb," a podcast and social media show, and the screenwriter behind "Conspiracy Theory 2: Still Conspirin'" (not really). They discuss the spectrum of empathy to accountability when discussing Candiace's weaponization of shame, the problem with assigning weakness and strength to Sutton and Erika's showdown, and a few shocking conspiracy theories that Erica has about Erika Jayne. In honor of Salt Lake City premiere weekend, Sarah and Erica are fully engaged - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 249!

Sarah unravels after one of the greatest eps of Housewives in recent history - a dinner party from hell, heaven sent - so she immediately races to Beverly Hills (jk, a Zoom from her NYC bed), to unpack all things Erika Jayne with one of her fave culture critics - and Erika Jayne spiritual investigator - Alex Zaragoza (screenwriter, producer, and senior culture writer at Vice). They unpack whether or not objectivity is a goal when discussing Housewives, the differences between reputation and recognition, and of course 1756 hours on Erika Jayne. Turns out when it comes to Erika's behavior, Sarah and Alex give many f**ks - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 248!

Sarah watches the newest episode of Potomac, and is horrified to realize she has never ONCE been offered the key to Karen's hometown. She soothes herself the best way she knows how: with human sunshine, and fellow Kyle apologist, Daniel Stokes (senior program lead of employee interactions, Door Dash). They unpack whether Wendy's horoscope was actually a prophecy for her latest tirade against Gizelle, whether Gizelle's First Lady visage inhibits her own capacity for empathy, and how the Beverly Hills cast may adapt to ongoing audience reaction on the reunion.

Sarah the private rehearsal for Sonja Morgan's upcoming cabaret tour (really!), and is lifted up into heaven during and after. Following a historic - and singular - performance, she is lowered below the earth's surface, the current season of RHONY's spiritual lower level. She puts on a few coats of SPF 9 billion, and Zooms up one of her fave guest co-hosts who always brings hot takes, writer Rafi D'Angelo (SoLetsTalkAbout.com). They discuss Sarah's wild night at Sonja's show, and what happened when the only straight man in the audience was livestreamed on OnlyFans, how and why the cast of RHOBH is better equipped for nuanced convos around race than, ya know, Ramona and LuAnn, Ashley's resume as the official Housewife LinkedIn, and Dorit's split perspective on 'bullying,' while sitting at the same table as Erika Jayne.

Feeling stung by the latest flyover Singer Stinger, Sarah hides in Lu's fave bush and calls up her fave Bravoholic pal - and Jameela Jamil truther - Tracie Morrissey (writer, producer, and host of the podcast Pot Psychology). They disregard whatever garbage is currently being burned on NY, and instead discuss Zen Wen's pulpit-worthy dragging of Gizelle, why Robyn needs more than "tough love" (perhaps...empathy?), and the ways that Erika's narrative seems to be falling apart, even with Rinna's potential coaching behind the scenes.

Sarah decides to add some Zen Wen positive energy in her humble abode with nine lemons and a bowl, until she realizes she accidentally bought six (turns out, unlike Sutton, she's not great at math). After screaming "this isn't even my effing plate" into the abyss as lemons run for the door, she ambles over to the People's People's Couch for a breath of fresh air, the host of Lemonada Media's new pod "I'm Sorry," Kiki Monique aka The Talk of Shame. They discuss whether an apologizer like Ramona can ever feel regret, Sutton's elevation to GOAT-level handler of receipts, and why Erika Jayne's storyline is rapidly approaching her house of cards' garage.

It's garbage day in Sarah's neighborhood, so she leaves this trash season of RHONY on the curb, and calls up her fave treasure instead, IG's Petshopboy (aka B Graeter). They discuss B's relationship with Leah McSweeney, and why he thinks the NY OGs are ultimately to blame for this current season, the warring qualities Karen v Gizelle share with Marg v Jen, and the ways Wendy's sensuality is being weaponized by Gizelle.

Sarah watches this week's RHONY, and immediately runs to the mikvah to cleanse herself of Ramona's next level schtick. Healed by the idea that karma is coming to the Singer Stinger (the proteins being sold out at Cipriani), Sarah chooses the epitome of spiritual self care: a double episode with the iconique IG deep diver @BravoBravoDuckingBravo. They discuss what the just-released RHOSLC S2 trailer says about the art of emotional manipulation, why Rinna is punishing Garcelle when it comes to being a true friend, and what it means when Bravo stays silent as Ramona doubles down.

Sarah dresses in all black (let's pretend this is telling), and adds a funereal (but cute) veil over her hair, mourning the loss of Bravocon 2021. Inconsolable, she meets up to pray for a healthy and vaxxy Bravocon 2022 with IG truth teller and Sonja apologist, Eliza aka @FaceReality16. They discuss the possibility that an indicted Jen Shah thinks her future is Erika Jayne's past, Garcelle's grace under pressure, and whether Lu and Ramona will ever stop punching down.

Sarah hops on Tom Girardi's possibly-purloined PJ to Beverly Hills, ready for diamonds and rosé and chi-chi-chi-chi-chic. Before takeoff, she realizes, wait, there's no place like home (also, who wants to pay for a whole plane, ammiright, everyone but Tom?). So she stays in NYC, and the heart of Beverly Hills heads to her instead! Sarah welcomes Real Housewife of Beverly Hills Crystal Kung Minkoff to NYC and the People's People's Couch, where they discuss the ways that body dysmorphia impacted her fight with Sutton over the definition of "violation," whether viewers will ever see Erika acknowledge the victims of Tom's alleged crimes, and why she's looking forward to her first reunion.

Sarah buys a three seater People's People's Couch from the Pretty Mess estate sale (Mikey gave her a discount along with his LinkedIn). Thrilled by the extra room and 17 karat diamond studs she found taped under a cushion, she (Zoom) invites over one of her fave pairs of Bravo besties, and the hosts of the pod Come Thru Queen, Brendan Davis and Dan Calabrese. They discuss what friendship means to Erika Jayne (and its impact on the Fox Force Five), why Mia's husband is showing the importance of partnerships, and whether needing more women on NY means culling or keeping the current cast.

Sarah finds out Sonja Morgan is launching her own cabaret tour, and immediately buys the first 6 rows (one for each of the Sonja by Sonja Morgan toaster ovens she plans to hoard, just as soon as they become avail). She celebrates feeling joy whilst hearing "RHONY cabaret" - maybe the best part of RHONY this season, and it happened online - with her Bravoholic bestie, Ryan Houlihan (senior gaming editor, inputmag.com). They deep dive the ways Erika is acutely aware of her cast responsiveness that Bethenny 2.0 was not, what happens if/when Jen Shah refuses to be present for reality (if not federal court), and why the tension between Wendy and Mia feels similar to Dorinda vs. Tinz.

Inspired by a lazy Sunday + 24 hours nap on the People's People's Couch, Sarah's co-host dreams become reality - an epic kiki with People's Couch OG, Emerson Collins (actor, producer, director, and part-time Bethenny apologist). They settle into the People's People's/People's Couch for a long ranging discussion on the ways in which Bethenny and Carole succeeded and stumbled translating their feud, the difference between being accountable and humble for a BH OG, and why it's important to be specific when calling RHONY 'boring' (cough cough, Ramona and LuAnn).

Sarah tries to create the IG account @PrettyMess-y to describe her DMs on Hinge, when she receives a stern "too soon" from Mikey and Co. Undeterred by Erica's possibly-volunteer army of glam, Sarah logs on for an epic double episode with her fave triple threat, Richie Skye (news and entertainment journalist and pop culture expert). They unpack the many complexities inherent in discussing Erika Jayne's behavior on TV and online, possible reasons behind Mia and Dr. Wendy's already tumultuous relationship, and what the future holds for Gizelle vs Karen (a win for everyone).

Sarah frolics in her cloffice, yearning for a RHONY as splendid as her dress-and-shoe debt. The only thing that could make this moment greater? A watchable RHONY. And how about number two? An epic kiki with her fave Bravoholic writer (watch out Carole!), Jared Alexander (actor, writer for TheGrio). They unpack the possible spiritual connection between Ashley and Michael's marriage and Erika and Tom's mirage, how much of an influence Dorothy may have in Candiace and Karen's relationship (or lack thereof), and oh look, a bird (things more interesting than NY, ammiright).

Sarah Googles "Richards family reunions," curious to see which second cousin Kathy thinks of as her familial Hunky Dory. Deterred by the number of I Love Turtles shirts that show up instead, she calls up her spiritual relative, the Kim to her Kyle, and a shared lover of Kath - Damian Bellino (writer, producer, host of the podcast "You Might Know Her From, and OG of the AG). Apparently recording on Opposite Day, they share nice characteristics of their previous arch nemeses Richards sis, whether Karen and Gizelle are losing the smize behind their ongoing wink-and-a-smile battle royale (and why Potomac is perfection, regardless), and whether RHONY could reset with a full/majority cast reboot.

Deeply fulfilled after another perfect episode of Beverly Hills, Sarah awakes bright eyed and bushy tailed (Dear Hinge: bow-chicka-wow-wow), and immediately races to the People's People's Couch for a spiritual People's People's Court. She dials up the Hunky to her Dory, the Thoma to her Sina, and the official AG legal correspondent, Emily D. Baker (legal commentator, former prosecutor, and host of The Emily Show). They unpack Britney Spears' legal battle, and the freedoms Tom Girardi is afforded that she is not, a nuanced conversation around how one can empathize with Erika while still holding her to account, and why Sutton and Crystal's epic argument may stem from their opposing reactions to conflict.

Sarah thinks of her spiritual Housewives picks (Heather Gay, Shan for whom she will always stan)and realizes three's the charm/Curtin cuff. But who? Who? Flustered by a list of 100+ options - not nearly enough - she Zooms up the perfect guide for this quest: Jamie Stein ('Housewives empath,' and host of the podcast Deep Dive with Jamie Stein).

Refreshed, renewed, and revitalized, Sarah once again opens the People's People's Couch for #ShotGirlSummer (upside: not near a highway like Bethenny's investment property). Schvitzing with joie de vivre and a lack of couch-side AC, she invites over one of her Bravoholic BFFs, and a fellow vaxxinista, Dylan Hafer (content manager, pop culture at Betches Media, host of the podcast Pop Alarm, and creator of @BravoByBetches). They discuss the question of audience intention on RHONY - is it the cast, or is it us - and the distortion that happens when OGs lose sense of the reality behind reality tv, why facts matter as much as intent and impact on BH, and the importance of understanding the nuances behind Crystal and Sutton's triggers/flaws.

Nature is healing because the People's People's Couch is welcoming back some IRL guests! Sarah celebrates this momentous return to in-person AG kikis the best way she knows how: by continuing to wear pajamas well after the morning hours, and chatting with one of her fave Bravoholic BFFs and multi-hyphenates, James LaRosa (writer, producer, director, creator, showrunner, and Garcelle superstan). They unpack the lens through which women's vulnerabilities and complications can be weaponized on Housewives and in pop culture, why Erika's divorce narrative doesn't match with previous season receipts, and what Britney Spears may have in common with possible RHOBH contender, Nicolette Sheridan. The People's People's Couch loves a vaccinated duo almost as much as Sarah loves Kathy's quirks - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 229! - JOIN/LEVEL-UP THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY EXCLUSIVE BONUS EPISODES, INVITES TO SPECIAL EVENTS, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO GUEST CO-HOST ON A FUTURE EP: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirls FOLLOW SARAH ON IG and help her hit 7k!: https://www.instagram.com/damegalli/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Upon learning the news that Kelly Dodd is retiring from Bravo in order to devote her life to charity work (being fired from OC really is such a mitzvah), Sarah celebrates the best way she knows how: a wide-ranging Bravoholics kiki with her fellow Doxxinista, Samantha Bush (staff writer at The Dipp, host of the pod "Hot Off the Mess," and Instagram's @BravoHistorian). They discuss what the OC reboot means for content creators, the impact of fame on the notorious housewife Second Season Curse, and what the Fox Force Five is getting wrong about...everything. Kelly and Braunwyn may be gone, but this ep has arrived right on time - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 228! - JOIN/LEVEL-UP THE ANDY'S GIRLS PATREON, AND ENJOY EXCLUSIVE BONUS EPISODES, INVITES TO SPECIAL EVENTS, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO GUEST CO-HOST ON A FUTURE EP: https://www.patreon.com/AndysGirls FOLLOW SARAH ON IG and help her hit 7k!: https://www.instagram.com/damegalli/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
