A lot happened over the past week, an eclipse, dirty rumors about BH casting that sent me into a spiral, plus Jill just jillin' like a villian on Below Deck, and now talk of a Potomac boycott as Teresa and Louie make a splash at Coachella. We cover all those bases before a recap of The Valley where the group is dealing with the aftermath of "R squared gate" and also preparing to attend, and help arrange, a charity gala.

Recap: The Valley Episode 8 - Lizard Goo and Monopoly Facts

This episode is a direct result of the ask from Mica Miller's family, after she was found deceased on April 27, 2024, for anyone who does deep dives to look into her circumstances. Mica was allegedly seeking a divorce from her preacher husband who stated that her passing was self inflicted in a sermon he gave the day after she was found.  This podcast provides a summary of the situation as it has been presented to the general public and shares independent research sourced from: newspaper articles, court documents, Myrtle Beach publications, interviews and sermons from Mica's preacher husband, Mica's family and friends, and Mica's own words as shared on her social media pages.  Mica's family established the #justiceformicamiller hashtag that can be used to find information and research being done by armchair detectives across all platforms. 

Deep Dive: What Happened to Mica Miller?

An episode that Bravo fans hoped would bring answers to questions like: What consequences will there be for Pushfest? What ramifications will befall Jesse for getting physical with the group and requiring two producers to get involved? What terse words will Jax have for his bro after learning that his wife was nearly trampled? How will Zach move on from Jesse treating him like a slow motion crash dummy testing the structural integrity of a hotel hallway?  The episode picks back up at the conference room dinner that is now garnished with filming ultimatums, before bringing us to another informative boyz night, highlighting new issues between Luke and Kristen, existing ones between the Lally's, and we see Jax finally take Britney out for a date night - only to make her cry. 

Bravo News and Recap: The Valley - Post Pushfest

Full recap of the episode where Jesse bulldozes through a hallway of people while wearing a graph paper suit. The journey of the episode spans expanding our knowledge of Luke's life in Colorado, Kristin's conviction that she's a great friend to Michelle, Jax's love of gossip and being compensated for dramatizing hair loss, Jesse's plans to assess his ego through psychedelics, and Britney's intent to be included in the opening of Jax's bar.  The arguments that lead up to the pushfest are as enlightening as the event itself, with Jesse in full delusion mode and Michelle eager to pawn him off to either a pop-up shop lady or Britney's mawmaw.
