Everything’s Hunky Dory

On this episode of Everything's Hunky Dory I welcome Molly back to the pod for another gossip sesh about all things going on in the pop culture world. Molly and I discuss a few of our thoughts on the semaglutide (Ozempic, etc.) craze, and the aging process. Then, we get into the Bethenny Frankel of it all. What is going on with B? Is she going off the deep end? Is she a manic mastermind? Do reality stars deserve royalties similar to SAG members? Speaking of the SAG-AFTRA strike, Molly and I touch on how that has personally affected her and her line of work, and how other's can support artists struggling during the strike. You don't want to miss this fun, opinion filled episode!

Stay tuned for new projects coming soon from Molly Smith, and in the meantime, please check out her hand designed stickers on Etsy at Sticker Head Club.

On this week's episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, I am joined by Kara Alloway, to discuss her upcoming book, 'Most Hated', and catch up with her on life since The Real Housewives of Toronto aired. From her time as an editor at Allure magazine, to working in reality television, and also starring in a hit reality television franchise herself - Kara Alloway is a big deal, y'all! In addition to discussing the upcoming release of Kara's amazing new book, 'Most Hated', Kara and I dish on everything surrounding our undying love for a sale, behind the scenes scoop on some elements of production when filming for The Real Housewives, a little about Kara's relationship to the Richards sisters, and more!

On this week's episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, I am joined once again by Natalie, of Nat's Turn to Talk, as we dive into the Scandoval of it all. Natalie and I give our reactions to this developing IRL telenovela, and the chaos that seems to be never ending for Vanderpump Rules and its cast. We talk about everything from how we felt hearing about the secret sleepovers between Rachel from Sonoma and Sandoval in the home he once shared with Ariana, their matching lightning bolt necklaces, the (alleged) Scheana Shay punch, and the restraining order that could threaten the attendance of all current cast mates. Natalie and I recorded this episode hours prior to Lisa Vanderpump's appearance on WWHL, so we're hypothesizing over whether or not Jax Taylor would make an appearance, and our predictions have us in stitches laughing! Whether you love Jax Taylor or not, you can't deny the camp factor he brings to reality television, and organic camp as good as Jax's is hard to come by! Does Vanderpump Rules need Jax back? Natalie and I also discuss who we'd like to see return to Vanderpump Rules. In true Shannon form, I give my hot take on the Yelp reviews left for Schwartz & Sandy's, and my thoughts on how to approach revenge in general. Natalie and I discuss how Ariana grieving with McDonald's is relatable queen behavior, and what we think is next for her. Our deepest sympathies are with Ariana, and we are sending her love and healing strength! Somehow we end up talking about Kim Zolciak Biermann for a little bit, and how Chris Bassett is the best foodie content creator around (except Natalie and I don't cook)! Natalie gives her rating for The Real Housewives of New Jersey so far this season, and it was surprising to hear! Tune in for a fun filled episode of laughs and real talk!

On this continuation episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, Peyton and I pick up where we left off: Vanderpump Rules Katie & Tom, and their cheating saga. Peyton and I brush on our own encounters with cheaters in relationships, and how embarrassing it is to catch someone cheating! Of course, I tie astrology into the conversation, and discuss a little bit about how Peyton is the ultimate Sagittarius! Again, ya'll know technology is generally against me, but Peyton and I managed to laugh through a few funny moments that I kept for comedic purposes. Peyton shares more about her sobriety journey, and gives us a glimpse into what it's like to relapse, live in a sober living facility, and still find a way to keep smiling despite it all. Then, we returned to the conversation of The Real Housewives of New Jersey's latest additions, Rachel Fuda and Danielle Cabral, and how they're all previously tied to the cast. We had a breaking news rumor during this recording from @bravosociologist regarding Gina being demoted to 'friend of' and Taylor Armstrong being promoted to full-time Housewife! We give our honest reactions to the news, and I can't resist an easy joke, so we get a little shady! Lastly, I grab a can of Soiree, a new mocktail launched by The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Margaret Josephs, and her podcast co-host, Lexi Barbuto, and sip my Teajito with Peyton, and give my feedback! Tune in for the second half of this fun-filled chaos sesh with my favorite gossip girl!

On this two part episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, I'm joined by everyone's favorite gossip queen, Peyton, or as I like to refer to her 'The Target of Gossip'. Peyton runs the wildly entertaining, and ultra popular page, @glorifiedgossipgirl, where she pumps content covering everything from The Kardashians, to Selena Gomez, and of course, our one true love: Bravo! Peyton and I also dig into her transparency surrounding her mental health diagnosis and her ongoing sobriety journey. Have fun keeping up with Peyton and me, as we take the gossip bus all over the map! We discuss everything from The Real Housewives of New Jersey's never ending family drama between the Gorgas and Teresa, the Kyle Cooke "coked out" comment on Summerhouse, Julia Fox and what an absolute babe she is; we conquer technology issues, give praise to Danielle Cabral over her transparency with incontinence issues and how she sees a physical therapist for her incontinence issues, shamelessly discuss how attractive we both are (hop on Spotify for video, ya'll), kegel balls and human balls, and having to poop in a cup (it's for a doctor, you freaks)! This is just some of what we discuss, and there's TWO PARTS to this fun-filled, unhinged, and truly chaotic episode, so stay tuned! Peyton is also a small biz boss babe like me, so we discuss her amazing vintage, distressed band t-shirts! Make sure you check out Peyton's selection and order one for yourself!

On this very delayed release episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, Blake and I sit down to discuss our predictions on Jen Shah's sentencing (spoiler alert: neither of us was correct), and the fact that "Kids say the darnedest things!" After several fun, and chaotic conversations and topic twists, Blake and I get into his journey towards parenthood, and his and his husband, Matt's, quest to find an adoption match, without the use of adoption agencies. If you, or anyone you know is considering the option of placing a baby/child for adoption, please reach out to Blake and Matt on their Instagram page @blakeandmatthew.

Of course, we recap some of our favorite Bravo and Bravocon moments, and give our personal resolutions for 2023! You don't want to miss this fun filled, year-end recap episode!

On this episode of Everything's Hunky Dory, I am joined by Aaron Marcellus, co-host of the hit podcast 'Bravo! We're Black'. Aaron and I talk about everything, including how little joy the holidays are delivering us this year, to how little we care about Heather Gay's black eye, and then we decide to make a conclusion on what we believe happened to her eye...sorta. Since it's the holidays, Aaron and I discuss which of the Housewives' homes we'd like to spend Christmas at, what our favorite Christmas foods are, and rank the best and most overrated holiday movies. We can't manage to stay in one lane too long, so of course we drove the bus to Potomac and Miami to discuss what these seasons are giving us so far, and we keep it reasonable...but, a little shady. It's all love, love, love, even if Aaron and I are a little bah humbug! You don't want to miss this fun and hilarious episode!

Molly and I get deep, and discuss a traumatic sexual assault that happened to me at the hands of my former best friend's husband; as well as some other deep topics surrounding trusting those in positions of power and authority.
