BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE

Merry Xmas. Today is the perfect day for a fun, all out chat with the one and only Miss Lady Bunny. Yes, THAT Lady Bunny. Drag Queen Extraordinaire, NYC Nightlife Legend, Friend to RuPaul, Lady Bunny. From her humble beginnings in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to her early days of Drag alongside RuPaul in Atlanta, Georgia, to her arrival on the New York City Club scene in the 1980s, Lady Bunny is here to tell it all. Lady Bunny discusses what the NYC “Club Kid” scene was like back in the day and how that scene was rocked when infamous Club Kid Michael Alig, with the help of his roommate, high on drugs, killed fellow Club Kid “Angel” Melendez and disposed of the body in the east river after bragging about the murder for days to anyone that would listen. Lady Bunny is also happy to discuss BFF RuPaul, BFF Andy Cohen, what each are like off camera, the evolution of WWHL, Real Housewives, Andy and more. Finally, we discuss how, when, where and why Lady Bunny founded the world renowned Wigstock, the juggernaut that it has become, the several blockbuster films it has spawned, and the involvement of “A” list celebrities such as Neil Patrick Harris. (Club) Kids, we are just getting started. Tune in now as we revisit this sit down with Drag Legend Lady Bunny. @official_lady_bunny @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: NOOM - noom.com (Sign Up For Your Trial Today So You Can Manage Your Weight For The Long Term) EARNIN - Download The EarnIn App Today (In Google Play or Apple App Store and Type in “Velvet Rope” When You Sign Up To Get Access To The Cash You Have Earned Today!)

With all the drama going on in the world, we figured it time to share this chat with the one and only Miz Cracker. Miz Cracker chats about her involvement in Drag Race - how she were cast, why she was not ready for the show prior to Season 10, what filming was like, the other queens, the involvement of RuPaul, her elimination in Season 10, all the drama and ultimate placement as Runner Up in All Stars Season Five. On a larger note, Miz Cracker shares her thoughts on how Drag Race has changed the industry, the business side of drag, and how she has morphed from a Baby Drag Queen to the Woman we see before us here today. We discuss those Drag Competitions, the true difficulty of Drag Race, and the Power of TV and being one of "RuPaul’s Girls”. Miz Cracker dishes on Meryl Streep, Maya Rudolph, Real Housewives and more.

What a year in Bravo! So many scandals, drama, breakups, makeups, kisses, infidelities and remember that “reckoning”?

Melissa shares her hot takes on The Scandoval, VPR’s life after, how everyone has won from it, Raquel’s new podcast under Bethenny’s guidance, Ariana’s new role as Roxie Hart in Chicago and what we can expect in a few weeks when Vanderpump Rules returns for its eleventh season.

As we prepare for the new season of Summer House early next year, Lindsay Hubbard claims that when filming resumes in The Hamptons Summer of ’24, she no longer feels comfortable being in a house with Carl Radke and thus will not film with him. Has she learned nothing from The VanderKids now that Season Eleven is about to return with every cast member, including Ariana, having filmed scenes with Tom Sandoval? Ramona Singer crashed the RHONY RHUGT party and does not seem to give one fu$k. We break down that move, take you inside the premiere party, discuss the current season sharing all our hot takes and reveal who we find to be the surprising break out star. Finally, we check in on Kyle and Morgan Wade amidst Morgan’s RHOBH appearances, attendance at Kathy Hilton’s Holiday party and revealing new song which features multiple references to the one and only Kyle Richards. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HELLOFRESH - HelloFresh.com/velvetropefree (Use Code velvetropefree For Free Breakfast For Life on America’s #1 Meal Kit) OAK ESSENTIALS - oakessentials.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off The Best Skincare Products With Code VELVET) VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) DraftKings Casino (Download The Draft King’s Casino App Now & Sign Up w/ Promo Code Velvetrope To Get a Deposit Match Up To One Hundred Dollars In Casino Credits When You Dposit $5 Or More To Play All Your Favorite Casino Games) EARNIN - Download The EarnIn App Today (In Google Play or Apple App Store and Type in “Velvet Rope” When You Sign Up To Get Access To The Cash You Have Earned Today!)

Patrick Duffy steps Behind The Rope. Yes, Bobby Ewing in the flesh! Patrick is here to chat about the full anthology of his career and what it was like to be part of one of the most iconic shows of all time, Dallas. Patrick reminisces about being cast, the early days on set with co-stars Larry Hagman, Linda Gray, Charlene Tilton and Victoria Principal - to name a few, the highs and lows of Bobby Ewing, best and worst storylines for the character and how life changed as a result of Dallas. Patrick opens up about his decision to leave the show after eight seasons, returning after only one season off, the decision to bring Bobby back to life a la the “dream season”, the viral reaction from fans, life after Dallas and the positives and negatives of playing one character for so long. Patrick also opens up about his life long friendships with Larry Hagman and Linda Gray, the TNT “Dallas Reboot” that ended way too soon, the future of the Dallas legacy and whether another Reboot is looming on the horizon. Of course, there was also that other mega hit Patrick was a part of, Step By Step. We talk the transition from Bobby Ewing to comedy, working with Icon Suzanne Somers, other parts he would love to play and finding love again with actress Linda Pearl. Thank you Patrick.

You may have heard a thing or two about Heather McDonald’s involvement as well. Here we were thinking it was going to be a nice, happy, peaceful end of 2023. Ya, right. We figured this was the perfect time to share this blast from the past chat with Julie and Brandy listening for and uncovering many Easter eggs of foreshadowing of what was to come on their eventual, brutal, ugly fall out with Mr. Jeff Lewis. We talk Jeff Lewis, Gage, Jenni Pulos, Kelly Dodd, Lea Black and tons more Bravo, Housewives and Jeff drama as we take this trip down memory lane. @mrjuliegoldman @peeweethepeoplescouch @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: TRUVAGA - www.truvaga.com ($15 Off w/ Code Velvet on The Best Product To Enhance Your Wellness Journey) AURAFRAMES - auraframes.com ($30 Off Their Best Selling Frames With Code VELVET) RELIEFBAND - reliefband.com (Reliefband’s “Twelve Days of Relief” Sale Is Happening Now.

RHOC. So many casting changes and news, so little time. As Andy Cohen pretends that Taylor Armstrong resigned from Orange County Housewives all on her own, rumors continue to swirl that Gina, Emily, Jennifer, Shannon, Heather and Tamra are all back as Vicki and Alexis are likely in when this OG franchise resumes filming early 2024 for its unprecedented eighteenth season. Wow. We feel old. Now that Alexis has been seen out with John Janssen multiple times, Emily weighs in on what Alexis joining the cast would mean for Shannon and whether Vicki will hold firm at her prior claims that she will only return for her rumored $1 million dollar salary and nothing less. Moving on, there is so much wrong with this season of RHOP, RHOA is in desperate need of fixing and we have a few suggestions for the powers that be, Bethenny Frankel hired Rachel Leviss as she continues to confuse us about Nene Leakes and last, but certainly not least, we extend our sincere thanks to Kim Zolciak for our very own viral moment thanks to her newfound low. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: AURAFRAMES - auraframes.com ($30 Off Their Best Selling Frames With Code VELVET) HONEYLOVE - honeylove.com/velvet (20% Off Sitewide Entire Order This Month Only on The Best Shapewear & Bras) VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) G ADVENTURES - gadventures.com/geluxe ($15 Off w/ Code Velvet on The Best Product To Enhance Your Wellness Journey) RELIEFBAND - reliefband.com (Reliefband’s “Twelve Days of Relief” Sale Is Happening Now.

We figured this holiday weekend was the perfect time to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Vicky Vox. @thevickyvox @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: AURAFRAMES - auraframes.com ($40 Off Their Best Selling Carver Mat With Code VELVET Now Through Black Friday and Cyber Monday) UNCOMMON GOODS - uncommon goods.com/VELVET (15% Off This Holiday Season The Most Remarkable & Unique Gifts For Everyone On Your List) WATERBOY- waterboy.com (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off For the Best Hangover Cure That Is Scientifically Formulated To Cut Your Hangover Time In Half) VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

As Teresa is named one of the forty most powerful women in Reality TV, we break down all that has happen this week in RHONJ land - the fact that we will see more of Gia next season, Danielle Cabral’s latest revelation, whether Gia will ever be a full time housewife and when we can expect RHONJ back on our TVs. Moving on, we discuss the fall out of Bethenny Frankel and Nene Leakes, Andy’s involvement in this fallout, Nene and Bravo re-following each other on social and the true, real likelihood that Nene could return to RHOA as a peach holder next season as rumors of a reboot, Sanya and Drew terminations and other cast shakeup tabloid fodder surface and resurface all week. Next, we share some newly surfaced tea from BravoCon and it is scolding hawt. Finally, we recap RHOP, RHOM and discuss all that is RHOBH - “name ‘em”, a humbled EJ, make ups and break ups, Dorit’s PTSD and the return of the one and only Denise F’ing Richards. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.

Ryan Cabrera steps Behind The Rope. Ryan was discovered by Jessica and Ashlee Simpson’s Dad, Joe Simpson, while playing an acoustic show in Dallas. Two days later he was living in Los Angeles in the Simpson Household. With a room next to Ashlee’s, the two became fast and good friends, a friendship that later blossomed into a romance after Ashlee appeared in his video. That romance was documented, in part, on the hit MTV Reality show, "The Ashlee Simpson Show". Ryan discusses what it was like to film that show with Ashlee, how it helped catapult him into the public eye, and the effect that had on his music sales. Speaking of hit MTV Reality Shows, we discuss friend Jessica Simpson’s Reality Show with then husband Nick Lachey, “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica” - the fact that at the time it was one of THE biggest reality shows ever to date, how “real” the show was, Jessica’s Viral “Chicken of The Sea Moment”, and Nick and Jessica’s relationship. Ryan also opens up about Jessica’s Billion Dollar Empire, the misperception of her as a “Dumb Blond”, and some of the many revelations in her earlier this year released Autobiography “Open Book”. Ryan also chats with us about then Girlfriend Ashlee Simpson’s viral SNL appearance, how that almost side railed the trajectory of her career, and what Ashlee really thought about the fallout from that fateful night. Having moved on to Audrina Patridge, we talk about that on-again, off-again relationship and what it was like to be back on Reality TV as the result of a relationship, this time on the super hit “The Hills” and many years later during an on-again phase, “The Hills: New Beginnings”. Then, of course, there was Avril Lavigne. All’s well that ends well, Ryan chats now wife WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss. We figured today to be the perfect day to share this chat with the one and only Ryan Cabrera. @ryancabrera @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: AURAFRAMES - auraframes.com ($40 Off Their Best Selling Carver Mat With Code VELVET Now Through Black Friday and Cyber Monday) VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) AIRDOCTOR - airdoctorpro.com (Use Code VELVET23 To Save Up To $350 Off Purifiers, 20% Off Filters and Get A Free 3 Year Extended Warranty on Any Purifier In Your Cart) AQUATRU- aquatrue.com (Use Code VELVET25 For a Massive 25% Off During This Limited Time Black Friday Sale Plus a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee on The Best Water Purifier Around) HONEYLOVE - honeylove.com/velvet (50% Off Entire Order This Month Only on The Best Shapewear & Bras) UNCOMMON GOODS - uncommon goods.com/VELVET (15% Off This Holiday Season The Most Remarkable & Unique Gifts For Everyone On Your List) WATERBOY- waterboy.com (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off For the Best Hangover Cure That Is Scientifically Formulated To Cut Your Hangover Time In Half) BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

Christi Lukasiak steps Behind The Rope. We figured this blast from the past was a perfect chat for Thanksgiving Day (you didn’t think we would take a day off, did you?). First off, Christi fills us in on all that she has been up to see we last saw her on our TV screens on Dance Moms. Christi talks daughter Chloe, working with Abby Lee Miller and spills the tea on what the Dance Mons Reality TV experience was really like both on and off air. We talk about why the term "stage mom" has such negative connotations and the perceived notions of that phrase versus the reality of the term. Christi opens up about the difficulties of balancing being an actual mom versus running your child's career, and how those goals often do not meet. Christi explains how her and Chloe were originally cast, how competitive it was to get cast, how she “knew” her and Chloe were gonna get the job and how she kinda just felt this show may be a huge hit. We discuss how she felt when she first saw the show and the differences between how she was edited and what she remembered during filming. We also talk about those famous Dance Mom’s fans that Christi and Chloe have met throughout the years - Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Gigi Hadid, Jennifer Lawrence, Kristin Chenoweth and Millie Bobby Brown. On a more serious note, we talk about her decision to leave the show, how and why, how the show "changed" the entire cast - for better or worse, the positives and negatives of fame, and her decision to return. @christilukasiak @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: AIRDOCTOR - airdoctorpro.com (Use Code VELVET23 To Save Up To $350 Off Purifiers, 20% Off Filters and Get A Free 3 Year Extended Warranty on Any Purifier In Your Cart) AQUATRU- aquatrue.com (Use Code VELVET25 For a Massive 25% Off During This Limited Time Black Friday Sale Plus a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee on The Best Water Purifier Around) HONEYLOVE - honeylove.com/velvet (50% Off Entire Order This Month Only on The Best Shapewear & Bras) UNCOMMON GOODS - uncommon goods.com/VELVET (15% Off This Holiday Season The Most Remarkable & Unique Gifts For Everyone On Your List) VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) WATERBOY- waterboy.com (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off For the Best Hangover Cure That Is Scientifically Formulated To Cut Your Hangover Time In Half) BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

Brooks is here to chat about his experience as one of the Real Housewives’ Kids from his break out Season One status to the past few years on RHOSLC. We talk mom Meredith, Jen Shah’s guilt and much more as this epic return to stellar form of RHOSLC Season Four continues on.

Christopher Atkins steps Behind The Rope. Christopher is here to chat about the full anthology of his career none the least of which was his breakout role in the classic 1980 film Blue Lagoon. Christopher talks about how he got this iconic role with no acting experience or no desire to act, what working on a desolate island in Fiji was like, meeting Brooke Shields for the first time, pressure from Producers to “fall in love” with Brooke and the media’s and public’s reaction - good and bad - once the film came out. We break down life immediately after when he went from a relative unknown to world wide super stardom, the “slow years” thereafter in the business trying to secure work, an unprecedented move to “do TV” in the juggernaut Dallas and his eventual decision to stop chasing the work and become a full time Dad. We talk addiction, recovery, the fleeting highs and lows of fame, pitfalls of the business and where it is today. Finally, Christopher talks current projects, the concept of a Blue Lagoon remake, actors he would love to work with and one epic plan to star opposite Brooke Shields in a brilliant concept he has developed. As we like to say, Christopher mentions it all! @christopheratkins1 @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

Love & Hip Hop’s Sukihana steps Behind The Rope. Sukihana, who named herself after a restaurant that she loves, is a marketing savant who makes approximately $100,000 per video on Only Fans. No really, she bought a Bentley with her Only Fans coins. That marketing savviness has also helped her amass a whopping 1.3 Million Instagram Followers who watch her every move. Those moves include putting “it all” out there for the world to see and enjoy. Extremely body and sex positive, Sukihana is open about her upbringing, becoming a Mom at a young age, and finding social media stardom by living her authentic life. Of course, we discuss Sukihana’s time on Love & Hip Hop: Miami and how she became an instant “fan favorite” of the franchise. We also discuss those infamous Love & Hip Hop reunions, hosted by our friend, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Claudia Jordan. David & Suki discuss which of the Peach Holders are their favorites and who is the best “reader”. We also discuss her featured role in Cardi B’s wildly popular “WAP” music video, what it was like to work with Cardi, and what she thought of Kylie Jenner’s star turn in the video as well. Finally, Sukihana discusses the release of her brilliant “Wolf Pu$$y” mixtape, her musical influences such as Lil’ Kim and Foxy Brown (who David saw during one of Kandi Burruss’ “Welcome To The Dungeon” live shows) and answers the question, what is next for Sukihana? With all the Bravo drama going on lately, we felt it time to share this funny AF blast from the past, our chat with the one and only Miss Sukihana. @sukihanagoat @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

Candiace opens up about her over zealous mouth and twitter finger which often gets her into hot water, the involvement of husband Chris Basset, being held to a different standard than many of her RHOP cast mates and how, no matter what she does, people hate, or love to hate her. Of course, we also chat music a la her first album “Deep Space”, other housewives’ music a la Countess Lu, Mel Gorga and the like and how she turned to one and only Kandi Burrus as well as Erika Jayne to not get caught up in the Housewives music mix.

Suzanne Somers died on October 15th, one day before her 77th birthday. Suzanne died of breast cancer with metastasis to the brain. I had the pleasure of interviewing Suzanne not once but twice. How I got so lucky through this job, through this podcast, to interview a living legend like Suzanne is beyond me. Trust me, the opportunity, the experience has never been, and is not, lost on me. Suzanne was a Trailblazer, an Icon, an Actress, Comedic Gold, an Entrepreneur, and Fearless. You do realize that if ABC tried to fire her today for demanding the equal pay of her male co-stars, she would own ABC? Something we talked about. Everyone's been slipping into my DMs because most of you know that I've interviewed her twice, asking if I am going to do something special to honor her. On that note, I am sharing the first of those initial chats in its original form, with no edits. Of course, we mention it all - Three’s Company, Step By Step, the Thighmaster, her appearance on RHOBH, and much, much more. This is not an interview that should be overlooked. Time changes so fast, and life is so precious. Tomorrow is not guaranteed.This was such a special experience for me. Suzanne will never know how much she touched my life through this chat. Today, we share our second sit down to honor the life of Miss Suzanne Somers! @suzannesomers @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: VESSI FOOTWEAR - vessi.com/VELVET (Get 15% Off the Most Comfortable, Most Stylist Waterproof Footwear Ever) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Upgrade Your Job Post) PHILO - www.philo.tv (Use Promo Code Velvet To Get 50% Off Your First Month on The Easiest, Hassle Free Way To Watch TV) RELIEFBAND - reliefband.com (20% Off Plus Free Shipping.

We start by breaking down Vicki Gunvalson’s Wifetime Achievement Award, the return of past Pod guests Jo De Lo Rosa, Alexis Bellino, Lynne Curtin and whether Vicki is playing the game correctly in demanding her last full time salary in order to return to RHOC as an Orange Holder when RHOC returns next year. Meanwhile, the Vanderpump Rules cast calls Raquel “Rachel" Leviss to return, LVP shades Raquel and Bethenny, Andy and LVP shut down Sandoval hate, Andy gets angry with Mary Cosby, Kelly Bensimon rejects Bethenny Frankel, Karen Huger starts a Grand Dame school for mini Grand Dames, Kenya more slams Ramona, Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards exchange pleasantries and much, much more as the non stop Vegas weekend tea continues to spill. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: PHILO - www.philo.tv (Use Promo Code Velvet To Get 50% Off Your First Month on The Easiest, Hassle Free Way To Watch TV) BUBLY - bubly.com (Crack a Smile with The Best Sparkling Water - No Calories, No Sweeteners.

BravoCon has come and gone and it is finally time for us to discuss our experiences - the good, the bad, the other. Next we spill all the tea and share all our nuanced analysis regarding all of the weekend’s events, gossip and tea spilled including, but not limited too, Jeff Lewis’ messiness, Ramona’s absence, Avery Singer’s attendance, the premiere and potentially crafty editing of RHUGT RHONY, the future of Caroline Manzo and Brandi Glanville’s Girls Trip, the return of Carole Radziwill to RHONY, the reboot of RHOA, Brynn Whitfield’s shoes, the boos of Tom Sandoval and Robyn Dixon and Andy Cohen’s many confusing, vague, conflicting and, most of all, media trained answers.

Allison DuBois steps back, again, Behind The Rope!! With two episodes of this season of RHOBH under our belts, Allison stops by to help break down this current season of RHOBH. First, we revisit her thirteen year in the making prediction that Mauricio will never emotionally fulfill Kyle. Know That!! Allison breaks down the recent scenes between Kyle and Mauricio helping us separate the real from fake and weighing in on all the recent real world events - Morgan, DWTS and many conflicting statements. Next, we break down the Dorit & PK “Pretty Woman” scene and discuss whether these two are separated or not - despite Dorit’s weekend BravoCon claims that they are, in fact, not separated. We discuss how the season is going for other cast mates - Sutton, Garcelle, Crystal, the fact that Erika is learning “empathy” for the first time (Allison actually knows Dr. Jenn Mann well) and what the arrival of Annemarie Wiley in episode six really means for the rest of this season and future of this franchise. Finally, we talk Reality Reckoning, Andy Cohen’s latest, Kyle’s recent WWHL appearance and why Kyle just cannot keep Allison’s name out of her mouth. As we like to say, Allison mentions it all.
