BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE

Jorge Garcia steps Behind The Rope. Fresh off his “The Masked Singer” elimination the night before, Jorge is here to chat about the experience. Jorge chats about why he chose The Cyclops, how much you can really see in those costumes, the judges Nicole Scherzinger, Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg, Robin Thicke, and Ken Jeong, his early elimination and, of course, his choice of the epic classic song “Flashdance…What a Feeling” by the Iconic Irene Cara. Of course, the convo quickly turns to a little show he starred in called “Lost”. We chat about what it was like being part of an ensemble cast of one of the most groundbreaking shows of all time, co-stars, highs and lows and playing fan favorite Hugo “Hurley” Reyes.

Third time is a charm. Countess Luann de Lesseps is back for a third time!! First things first, the Countess addresses the headlines made throughout the world this past week from her night out at The Townhouse Bar on New York City’s Upper East Side. Once we chat about the who, what, why, and everything else, we move on to RHUGT which just concluded on Bravo - who she grew closer to, Teresa at the start of her relationship with Luis, the drama, and of course, Ramona, Ramona, Ramona. We break down RHUGT-2 (Blue Stone Manor Edition), the advice she gave to fellow RHONYs Jill Zarin and Dorinda Medley, and what she thinks of other Bravo franchises like Jen Shah over in Salt Lake and Erika Jayne in Bev Hills, to name a few. Of course, the convo turns to RHONY Season 14 - in light of what was announced last week what do we expect the future to be and who from RHONY past seasons could potentially be involved. Finally, let us not forget, The Countess is back on tour with an epic several night run kicking off April 17th at her home away from home, 54 Below, before she hits the road for LA, Canada and much more.

There has been so much written in the past week about Bobby Boyd and Josh Flagg’s Breakup. Apparently, Josh has a new boyfriend, Bobby’s name is on the title to Josh’s new $9M house and much more. Are there any signs in this chat we had with Bobby just a few mere months ago. There is a reference to separate beds. As you listen, can you spot any foreshadowing? Million Dollar Listing’s Bobby Boyd steps Behind The Rope. Mr. Josh Flagg. However, there is much more to Bobby Boyd than his husband. Coming from humble beginnings, Bobby became a male model at the young age of 14 in order to help pay for college. Even though Bobby had early success as a fashion model woking for major designers such as Versace and Calvin Klein, he set his sights on something else when he arrived in Los Angeles, Real Estate. Having a keen eye for style, architecture, design and a “personable” rather than “transactional” approach, Bobby’s first home sale was that of a $6.5 million dollar property, not bad, and a new career was born. Bobby then met a man who shared his interests and profession who happened to, not only be one of LA’s top real estate agents, but also one of the long standing members of Bravo’s Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles. Bobby chats about meeting Josh, their instant chemistry and connection, his position working with Josh at Rodeo Realty, a flash mob proposal in Paris and wedding at The Beverly Hills Hotel, both of which were filmed by Bravo. Bobby chats about that, Josh’s sometime over the top extravagant style, and what working with his spouse every day is like. When not busy with MDL-LA, Bobby can be seen on his very own Lifestyle You Tube Channel, “Bobby Boyd Living” or selling his brand new aprons which are stylish, edgy and fun (no really check out his on line store). Finally, Bobby also discusses MDLLA - how does his style differ from Josh’s, the Brtits, Altman, Tracy Tutor and Fredrik Eklund, the conflicts, those over the top open houses, celeb clients and last, but not least, when we can expect and what we can expect from the upcoming MDLLA Season Thirteen. @bboydla @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: WOOGA (“JUNE”S JOURNEY) - (Download “June’s Journey” Free Today on the Apple App Store or Google Play) OUAI - www.theouai.com (15% Off Your Entire Purchase.

The founders of WeWork thought they were on the brink of making history. The company was valued at $47 billion dollars, ready for a huge IPO, and its charismatic CEO Adam Neumann believed he was going to change the world. Adam and his wife Rebekah had a prophet-like vision—but did it ever match the company's reality? Now the inspiration for a new AppleTV+ series starring Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway, WeCrashed: The Director’s Cut is a complete refresh of our original six-part series. Hosted by David Brown of the hit podcast Business Wars, this six-part series includes new interviews and new discoveries about the rise and fall of WeWork. It’s a story of hope and hubris, big money and bigger screwups, and the lengths people will go to chase “unicorns”!

With so much chatter about the new season of RHOP and a lot of internet fodder about one Candiace Dillard Basset’s future on the show, we felt it apropos to share our past chat with Miss Candiace Dillard. What are your thoughts? Would you like to see Candiace on RHOP next season? Candiace Dillard Bassett steps Behind The Rope. What a season she has just had on The Real Housewives of Potomac. Where to begin? We leave no stone left unturned in our discussion with Candiace regarding the physical altercation with Monique Samuels, which was THE central storyline seen this past season on RHOP. We go behind the cameras to discuss what was going through Candiace’s mind before, during and after the “hair drag” watched around the world. We discuss the emotions associated with the event, there are a wide range, and what the atmosphere was like on the set of RHOP for the rest of the season once this occurred. Candiace discusses the RHOP reunion, what we have already seen and can expect to see over the remaining weeks, and the closure she felt, once it was over, from the most drama filled season in the history of RHOP. Breaking the fourth wall, we discuss Bravo’s involvement, what, if anything, could have been done differently and what measures can or should be taken tp prevent something like this from happening again in the BravoVerse. As Candiace reflects back, we discuss how she feels now that she is on the other side of the season and what we can expect as the RHOP Reunion forges on. We also get a rare look into Candiace’s life growing up in the ATL, being a “Pageant Girl”, her current pursuit of her MBA at Howard University, and meeting Chris Bassett. Finally, being a fellow Pop Culture and TV junkie, (yes reality is included and yes she watched RHOP before being on it) Candiace reveals her love of all things Shonda Rhimes and bonds with David over Scandal, one of the best TV shows to ever exist. Kids, we are just getting started. After all, this is only Part I of our two part sit down with Candiace Dillard. @candeegal09 @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: ELYSIUM HEALTH - www.trybasis.com/VELVET (10% Off At Checkout.

Hey all you cool cats and kittens, Carole Baskin steps Behind The Rope! Since so much has happened in the world of Big Cats and Tiger Kings since Ms. Baskin was here last, we did the only thing we could think of - call her back for more! Carole is here to chat about many of the real life events which have taken place since our last chat - Joe Exotic being re-sentenced for Murder for Hire which could potentially lead to shorter jail time, his announcement that he is accepting applications in jail for a boyfriend, his desire for this search for love to become Netflix’ new break out show, “Bachelor King” - no really, Google it, and Joe’s ex boyfriend Dillon Passage’s own announcement that he has found love in the form of his new seemingly age appropriate, Instagram official, boyfriend John. Carole also chats about the new Peacock Series, “Joe VS Carole” starting John Cameron Mitchell (“Hedwig" Shout Out) as Joe Exotic and Kate McKinnon as Carole. Speaking of actresses to play Carole, the last time she was here she listed Meryl Streep as her top choice. We share an update on that - has she heard from Meryl and how did that conversation go? Finally, we all know Carole can dance a la Dancing With The Stars (yes, we chat Tyra!), but we get to know the most famous woman in all of Big Cat Rescue chatting about what she likes to do for fun, what is going on in the world of Big Cat Rescue today and just what is next for this fearless powerhouse that is unapologetically committed to her cause of Big Cat Rescue who won’t ever stop until all the cats are safe.

Larsa breaks down being an OG RHOM as part of Season One of the Miami Franchise, leaving the show, and ultimately returning for the much talked about reboot which we all watched week after week. Now that the reunion is here, we could think of no better RHOM than to break it all down with. We talk cast mates Marysol, Alexia, Julia, Adriana, Guerdy, and Lisa, the drama, season highs and lows. Of course, we break down Larsa’s infamous Only Fans and just how does one achieve Larsa Only Fans status of $10,000 a day. Now that Larsa's divorce from Scottie is final, we chat dating, joining The Bachelorette, whose DMs she just slid into and what exactly is Larsa looking for in her next mate. Finally, we break down that other reality show, and friendship she was a part of, Keeping Up With The Kardashians and Kim and discuss how now that Larsa is done with ex-friends and exes - it is truly her time to shine! @larsapippen @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope L’OCCITANE - www.loccitane.com (Review All Products and DM Us With Your Favorites!)

Kim D. is back for her weekly #RHONJ recap and she is, as usual, holding nothing back. Double standard much? Tre doesn’t want anyone to talk about Luis, anytime, anywhere, ever. Whops. Guilty as charged. Not that Tre needs to worry about it because even on her best day, Luis isn’t intimidated by Marge. Mel ain’t none too happy 'bout the fact that Tre stayed with Jennifer after it got physical - we always knew that JAydin had it in her - and Frank Catania reminds us that none of us want Patterson Dolo to come out. Seems we are still trying to make sense of the viral vid that shook the Garden State while Jackie tries to deal with real life issues that are actually important. Of course, as usual, Kim spent the week digging up some real life behind the scenes dirt for y’all - who says Jennifer Aydin is the only one good at that - which she shares here today. Obviously, it involves Luis and Tre because, you wouldn’t want Kim D. any other way. @kimdposche @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen to Full Episode At: https://www.patreon.com/posts/63301660/edit Learn more about your ad choices.

What an epic Sophomore Season of RHOSLC this has been and an even more epic RHOSLC Reunion. With everyone buzzing about Lisa Barlow, we figured it was a great time to share this chat we had with Lisa just one year ago. Have things changed? The more things change, the more they stay the same? Thoughts? Lisa Barlow, hot off the RHOSL finale, steps Behind The Rope (with special guest appearance by John Barlow). The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Lisa Barlow and we could not be more excited to chat with her about this new stellar addition to the franchise. After a brief background on Lisa, where she grew up, how she ended up in Salt Lake, where she met husband John Barlow, and all things Vida Tequila (yes kids, we have a new Housewives’ product!), we get right into all the current drama on the freshman season of RHOSL. Lisa explains which franchises she watched prior to being cast on the show, how she originally got involved in the show, why Salt Lake is the perfect location for a Real Housewives show and what other Bravolebrities and Housewives she heard from now that the show has aired. Lisa dives deep on her many year friendship with fellow cast mate Meredith Marks and is happy to discuss all of her new “friends” Jen Shah, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, and Whitney Rose. Lisa chats about who she thinks was authentically themselves during filming and was portrayed accurately now that the show has aired. She also chats about who loved the camera a little too much and brought the drama even when there was no drama needed to be brought. On that note, Lisa opens up about what what she thinks is the biggest misconception of herself, reflects back on some of the seasons already iconic moments and chats about what she plans, if anything, to do differently for Season Two. With our prodding, she addresses Vanderpump Rules Katie Maloney’s recent comments about her “Queen of Sundance” title that Jen Shah bestowed upon her. Thank you Lisa. Finally, we discuss the Vida Tequila event Bethenny Frankel attended back in the day and what she has to now say to the Skinnygirl Mogul. A true RHOSL extravaganza not to be missed. @lisabarlow14 @johnbarlow16 @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: ELYSIUM HEALTH - www.trybasis.com/VELVET (10% Off At Checkout.

Summer House! How did this show go from the “little show that could” to the blockbuster “fan fav” that it is today. Season Six. We break it all down - love triangles, looming weddings, on agains, off agains, new cast members, Andrea’s abs, Carl & Lindsey and much much more. In other news, we chat about the real life Potomac updates we have to share from our time in the DMV and the conflicting posts, texts, and rumors about whether Candiace Dillard Bassett will be returning next season to RHOP and who should actually go. Speaking of Potomac, we break the fourth wall to analyze how things have changed from the good ole days where filming starts right after a prior season’s end, such as current RHOBH and RHOSLC, and every other franchise which seems to be taking its sweet time to find the right mix of drama. Finally we chat about RHOSLC Jennie Nguyen’s exit and what actual metrics and standards Bravo seems to be using to determine who ends up “cancelled”. Whew, all that and we are just getting started. @thesarahfraser @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: ELYSIUM HEALTH - www.trybasis.com/VELVET (10% Off At Checkout.

Todd Bridges steps Behind The Rope. Fresh off his epic turn on this just completed season of Celebrity Big Brother, Todd is here to mention it all. Todd holds nothing back, his now infamous eye rolls and all, to break down his own game play, Todrick Hall’s game play which seems to have all of Pop Culture in a flutter, where he thinks it all went wrong for him, alliances, deception, Julie Chen, whether Todrick will now be “cancelled” in the real world, and what being in the house with two Real Housewives Cynthia Bailey and Teddi Mellencamp was like. Of course, we also deep dive into Todd’s breakout role as Willis Jackson in Diff'rent Strokes - what working on that show was like, highs/lows, famous guest stars like Janet Jackson and, of course, one of the most iconic sayings in TV sitcom history, “Watcha talkin’ bout Willis”. Todd opens up about life after Diff’rent Strokes ended - addiction, arrests, rock bottom and his road to recovery and sobriety which, as a result of Big Brother, has led to his new role of “Sobriety Coach” for Lamar Odom, late night Khloé Kardashian talks and all!

We always say to first year Housewives, don’t change. As y’all listen to this chat from one year ago with Whitney Rose, has she changed? Things certainly have changed in twelve short months. Before Mary Cosby was a thing of the past, before we even knew who Jennie Nguyen was, back when Meredith and Lisa were BFFs, we sat down with the one and only Whitney Rose. Whitney Rose steps Behind The Rope. In preparation for tonight’s conclusion to an epic 3 part reunion, Whitney is here to break down this freshman season of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. After a brief discussion of Whitney’s life prior to the show - yea we wanted to know more about the woman behind what ya all have seen on TV over the past few months - we get right into it. Whitney is more than happy to discuss, and does not hold back in discussing, her close friendships, mere acquaintances and not so close friendships with cast mates Mary Cosby, Jen Shah, Meredith Marks, Lisa Barlow and Heather Gay. We will let you figure out which is which. We delve deep into all the seasons dramas discussing which were necessary and valid and which Whitney would never like to speak of again. Speaking of drama, we break down the reunion, part by part, analyzing whether any closure was achieved or rather fresh wounds were opened. Now that Season Two has been green lit, Whitney discusses what she predicts will transpire amongst her cast mates, what she would like to see change, and what she plans to do differently.

There was a recent rumor that RHONY was not coming back which was started based on a statement made on this Podcast. Today we address that statement, how it went viral, the truth behind it and what we, in fact, actually know about the future of RHONY - if filming is likely to occur, when that filming will likely take place, when the cast is expected to be announced, who will be back, which OGs from the past are likely to return and many many more of your burning daily questions will be answered. Turning to our sisters across the river, we break down the RHONJ, what we know about this current season as it plays out, the truth behind many of the on line rumors of affairs, newbie Traci Lynn Johnson (with hubby legend Tiki, straight men rejoice), disputes and, almost, table flips a la Tre and Marge. Finally, we break down some of the newest entries into the Bravo Pod world, “Give Them Lala” sans that other man who she does not want named as well as the aptly titled “On Display” but the one and only, Miss Melissa Gorga. @thesarahfrasershow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BROUGHT TO YOU BY: FITON - (Text ROPE to 64-000 to join and work out for FREE!)

Tabatha Coffey steps Behind The Rope. She is back!! First, we cannot help but reminisce again about the Bravo days of yesteryear when Tabatha reigned supreme with her epic array of shows Tabatha’s Salon Takeover, Tabatha’s Takeover, Relative Success With Tabatha and, of course, the show that introduced us to this blond beauty, Shear Genius. We chat about the appeal Tabatha had to last on our TVs for so long, her signature tell it like it is / hold nothing back approach to hair and life, how Bravo has changed over the years to become the network it is today. With two seasons of RHUGT, we hypothesize which colleagues would be prime to join Tabatha in the non-housewives version of Girls Trip - Kathy Griffin, Rachel Zoe, Jeff Lewis, Patti Stanger, Jackie Warner - we are looking at you, discussing the pros and cons of each as a potential cast member. We also can’t help but throw around Paula Abdul’s name. After all, who can forget, Bravo’s “Hey Paula”. Tabatha weighs in on some of the current Bravo legal cases keeping us up at night - Erika Jayne & Jen Shah, discusses why someone would go on Reality TV if they had anything to potentially hide, and the allure and addiction of fame, one of the most powerful drugs. The last time Tab was here we asked if she would ever join RHONJ, seeing as she lives just across the river. We follow up on that chat with who she has heard from since we have put that out in the world. Andy Cohen we are talking about you. We also revisit Tabatha’s idea for an all gay Housewives - men and women, cancel culture and what the woman who everyone thinks is a B+tch does for fun when not running one of her many businesses. Of course, we couldn’t let her go without discussing hair, trends, fashions and whether a $10,000 Ponytail for the Met Gala was really necessary Kim Kardashian. In typical Tabatha fashion, she does not hold back. @tabathacoffey @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: FITON - (Text ROPE to 64-000 to join and work out for FREE!)

Kim D. Is back! With the new season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey back in our lives and our weekend recaps with Kim D. in full effect, Kim D. stops by to share updates on her own life and chat all that has been happening these past many months in RHONJ land. Kim weighs in as only Kim D. could on Teresa’s Greek getaway with Dina Manzo which turned into her engagement to Luis, their new $3.3M love nest, the degree and motivations of their love, the speed at which this all happened and the involvement of cameras. Speaking of cameras, Kim discusses the real life events that she is privy too behind the scenes of what we are watching each week on RHONJ and her own real life involvement behind the scenes in the upcoming Jennifer and Bill Aydin acheating storyline and details the call both her, and David, received regarding this matter. Finally, we chat Jackie, Dolo, Gorga and newbie Traci Lynn Johnson who brings along nice guy - yup we met him - NFL Legend Tiki Barber. Listen now to catch up on all you can expect as this explosive new season of RHONJ plugs along which both Dolores and Tre promise to be more shocking than Tre’s iconic table flip!!! @kimkdposche @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: FITON - (Text ROPE to 64-000 to join and work out for FREE!)

Kim D is back for another explosive RHONJ recap. As Kim says at the start of this chat, there is only one word that matters this week. G-I-A. We have watched her go from a child to a young woman and this week, Gia makes her official debut. Ok, she has been here all this time, but Gia, honey, you have our utmost attention! The convo quickly turns to Jennifer, her secret revealed, tears shed, what seems to be a “new” / actually old return of Miss Dolores (she was actually on her way to Kim’s house during this chat to “pick up some stuff” - we discuss), Jackie showing compassion, Margaret being Margaret and, oh yea, does anyone remember we technically have two “friends of” this season. Of course, in true Kim D. fashion she drops one hell of a bomb about Teresa and Luis’ WWHL appearance back stage during premiere night!

We always say to first year Housewives, don’t change. As y’all listen to this chat from one year ago with Whitney Rose, has she changed? Things certainly have changed in twelve short months. Before Mary Cosby was a thing of the past, before we even knew who Jennie Nguyen was, back when Meredith and Lisa were BFFs, we sat down with the one and only Whitney Rose. Whitney Rose steps Behind The Rope. In preparation for tonight’s conclusion to an epic 3 part reunion, Whitney is here to break down this freshman season of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. After a brief discussion of Whitney’s life prior to the show - yea we wanted to know more about the woman behind what ya all have seen on TV over the past few months - we get right into it. Whitney is more than happy to discuss, and does not hold back in discussing, her close friendships, mere acquaintances and not so close friendships with cast mates Mary Cosby, Jen Shah, Meredith Marks, Lisa Barlow and Heather Gay. We will let you figure out which is which. We delve deep into all the seasons dramas discussing which were necessary and valid and which Whitney would never like to speak of again. Speaking of drama, we break down the reunion, part by part, analyzing whether any closure was achieved or rather fresh wounds were opened. Now that Season Two has been green lit, Whitney discusses what she predicts will transpire amongst her cast mates, what she would like to see change, and what she plans to do differently. Spoiler Alert, we here Behind The Rope have already heard tidbits from Season Two filming which we, of course, do our best to get Whitney to comment on. Hey, we are good like that.

Todd and Julie Chrisley step Behind The Rope. Todd and Julie reminisce about the epic journey over the past eight years from day one to present that we have all watched play out week after week on Chrisley Knows Best.

Cynthia Bailey steps Behind The Rope. Real Housewives Ultimate Girl’s Trip. RHUGT. Cynthia breaks it all down for us - what it was like to spend a week in Turks & Caicos with Ramona, Lu, Tre, Mel, Kyle and former cast mate Kenya, the drama she ensued causing "50 Cynt" to come out, who she grew closer and farther apart from, breaking the fourth wall and how production was different than Housewives and much more from this instant fan fav Housewives Franchise. Cynthia also chats about her departure from RHOA, how she feels now that she is no longer a Peach Holder, and reminisces on her highs and lows from her eleven year tenure of the show. Cynthia also chats the current RHOA cast - Marlo finally has her peach, the return of Shereé Whitfield, newbie Sanya Richards-Ross and the rumors of Nene wanting to possibly return. Cynthia revels in new A list hosting gigs like Daily Pop and Access Hollywood, current acting gigs and how she feels now that she splits her time between the ATL and Hollywood. Perhaps someone will one day be a future diamond holder seeing as she already has screen time with Ms. Richards. Finally, having celebrated her one year wedding anniversary the other month, Cynthia chats #chill, how life has changed as Mrs. Mike Hill and just what is next for this power couple, and Miss Cynthia Bailey who seems to be taking over the entertainment space one day at a time, including Celebrity Big Brother! @cynthiabailey @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RITUAL - www.ritual.com/VELVET (Get 10% Off During Your First Three Months) FRAMEBRIDGE - www.framebridge.com (15% Off Your First Order.

Y’all love our RHOBH chats with former RHOBH Kathryn Edwards so why not do the same with former RHONJ “Friend Of”, Kim D. Now that RHONJ is back in our lives, you know it is the only thing you want to talk about!! We break it all down sharing our deep thoughts about this past weeks Season Premiere “Smoke, Mirrors and Foggy Diamonds”. Tre is in love, love, love, Luis made a bizarre video, Jackie is cool, an episode would not be complete without a cameo from Big Frank, Jennifer gets a new nose, oversees, we learn new info about Bill Aydin, Margaret has a backbone and oh, so much more. Also, let us not forget Kim has real life ties to many of the current cast and even reveals how she herself was involved in the alleged Aydin infidelity. Whew, all this and we are only on episode one. In true Kim D. fashion, she does not hold back! @kimdposche @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef https://www.patreon.com/posts/62140121 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We could not let this “revised” season of RHOC come and go without re-sharing one of our fav OC, heck, one of our fav chats ever with you, the one and only OG of the OC! The OG of the OC Miss Vicki Gunvalson steps Behind The Rope. First Vicki fills us all in on what she has been up to since we last saw her on our TV screens. For those of you who don’t know, she bought a house in Mexico, had a stellar Whoop It Up Podcast (which BTVR appeared on), has been running Coto Insurance, and has just been enjoying time with her family (Steve, Michael, Brianna, Ryan & The Boys). Vicki and David discuss the trajectory of being a Housewife - the beginning (so hopeful), the middle (save your $), the inevitable end (Cue The Five Stages of grief). We discuss the concept of resigning and quitting versus being fired and let go. Vicki lets us know what advice she would give, not only to Season One Vicki, but other Housewives starting out and what she has learned throughout the years during her tenure on the hit Bravo show. Speaking of the beginning, Vicki and David discuss how much the show has changed since the beginning - the salaries, the vacations, the women, the drama! We discuss the involvement of producers and editing throughout the years and the concept of “reality” as it exists, or lack thereof, in any reality TV show these days. Vicki opens up about her highs and lows during her fourteen years on the show. We discuss the evolution of her relationships that we saw play out on national TV - Don, Brooks, Steve. Vicki discusses her relationships with Kelly Dodd (where she thinks it all went wrong), Tamra Judge (going strong), Shannon Beador (can it be repaired?) as well as RHOC past Jeana Keough, Meghan King Edmonds, Heather Durbrow and Alexis (“Jesus Jugs”) Bellino. Vicki is honest about what she misses the most about Housewives and answers the age old question, would you ever go back? Finally, no sit down with The OG of the OC would be complete without a trip down memory lane regarding some of Vicki’s most iconic moments - the State of Oklahoma. Slade Smiley’s infamous comment and her plastic surgeries throughout the years, Lauri Peterson’s Ski Slope “multiple partners” and of course, last but certainly not least, just how many people can you fit into a family van? @vickigunvalson @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: NATIVE - www.nativedeo.com/velvet (20% Off Your First Order.

Sally Jessy Raphael steps Behind The Rope. Icon in the Flesh. The first female host to have a syndicated daytime talk show. With her Iconic red glasses in tow, we chat with Sally about the full extent of her career. A career which began in radio and spanned several decades leaving a permanent mark and having created the landscape of daytime TV. Sally opens up about her best and worst guest, the topics she loved and did not love talking about, all of the celebrities she has interviewed, the cultural significance of being “the first" and just how much the industry has changed over the years. Speaking of being “the first”, we chat with Sally about some of the others she has paved the way for - Oprah (yes, we chat about the Meghan and Harry sit down), Ellen (yes, we chat about her mean girl reputation and the loss of 1 million viewers as a “supposed” result), Wendy Williams (and all she is going through), Drew Barrymore (newbie) Kelly Clarkson (is it an easy transition for actors and singers?), and last but certainly not least, Miss Bethenny Frankel (well, that was short lived.). Of course, we chat with Sally about The View - all the rumored back stage infighting, “Ladies Who Punch”, Barbara Walters, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Kelly & Ryan. Since we have an Icon in our presence, we discuss the late night talk show scene such as Daddy Andy Cohen’s WWHL and Joan Rivers’ infamous short lived stint. Remember we mentioned those iconic red glasses, we chat with Sally about the origins of her trademark look, how many pairs she actually has, does she ever go out incognito, and whether she ever tires of them. An unbelievable trip down memory lane with the pioneer herself, Miss Sally Jessy Raphael. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought To You By: NATIVE - www.nativedeo.com/velvet (20% Off Your First Order.
